It appeurs to u that there 1 a healthy sentiment in this community lit thli time In favor of laying aside difference of opinion upon subject which the city administration cannot affect and which are in that sense ab stract, and cclertln; a board of alder men of first-class business men, ca pable of grappling with tho grave problem which confront the city. ThU Is a sentiment which should be fostered which every woll-wlnher of Charlotte should strive to promote. It would bo worse than Idle, it would be foolish, for us to try to conceal from ourselves the tact that our financial affairs are not in good condition and that it In Imperative that something he done to improve the ultuatlon. An end must come at some time to the issuance of bonds to ralxu money t. meet current expenses, clic the city will ultimately find Ifxlf In the case of an Individual who might. Instead of paying hi.s monthly hills out of his Income, give h Is notes for trK-m. His early finish would be Inevitable. Things nocd to be donn the doing of which would call for money. For In stance, everybody clamor for good streets and few stop to reflect that we have not the money with which to lay them. What Is here sold Is Intended only to be suRK'-Htive there is no thought of outlining any policy and this sug s;e11on U that in every ward all differ ences of opinion between citizens be for'Otten and the people K,-t together In a spirit of high patriotism and se lect their ulilerrnen wholly with refer ence to their business ability; their ability to solve the problems, present and Immediately prospective Very many of the most capable men will shrink from iv rve on the lemrd of aldermen. I; Is a ti'ne when, If call ed upon, thry sh'uld xaerlflce their Convcnlem e and comfort and lend themselves to the. Fi-rwrc of the city.

Commenting upon the utter disre gard tor the traditional principles of the Democratic party shown by all but a few members of the Democratic minority at Washington during the session of Congress Juiit past, an Ohio correspondent of The No York Even--tng Post proceed to point out ' tho evil results certain to follow such a course. Taking the Smoot case as hit text, he makiii the point that "such a precedent , would have opened the door wide for the exclusion or expul sion of scores of Southern Democrats who have sat In . Congress since the civil war. It would be ten times eas ier to prove that Tillman, for example, holds views which make It impossible for him to support the constitution (Including the war amendments) than It was to prove that Smoot's views of Mormonl.sm were of such a character. And yet practically every Southern Senator supported a theory which would allow a majority at Washington to dictate to any State In tho Union what kind of a 'representative' it might send to the Senate." Undeni ably true. Has not Senator Tillman, referring to these sections of the con stitution, yelled "To hell with suoh law!" There would be an absolutely clear case against him and many an other In Congress; and In somo po litical convulsion, when partisan and sectional rancor are deeply aroused, Southern Democrats may well pray that their votes against Senator Smoot and against conscience do not rise up to plague them. In tho countenance .afforded the preposterous Beverldge child-labor bill by Democrats this writer sees another danger. "The same Senators," he continues, "may as well go ahead and support Senator lieverldgo's new measure, which, If passed and sustained In the courts, would at once make It possible for a Northern majority in Congress to say that no common carrier should re ceive for Inter-State commerce any cotton raised In any State In which negro laborers and their children did not enjoy rights and privileges Iden tical In all respects with tho iflghts and privileges of any other race or color." Tho conclusion of Tho Evening Post's correspondent Is Incontro vertible: "If the Southern Democrats aro determined to go on aiding In the breaking down of all restraints upon centralized power at Washington, let them rest assured that Lho power Is not golru; to withhold Its hand In any par ticular case merely because Southern susceptibilities on tho negro question happen to bo Involved." This aspect of the mutter does not nppeal to The Observer so strongly as the destruction of States' rights and Injury to the cause of local self-government every where which aro Involved, but In some States and with many people the case must b otherwise. From either standpoint the reeent course of the great majority of Southern Democrats in Congress Is greatly to bo blamed. We trust thut they will be wise enough by next December to see whither unthinking radicalism Is lead ing them. The legislative proceedings have told that the General Assembly has voted tr.,n0O to aid In the establishment of a technological school at Spray. This Is a small proportion of tho sum which will be Invested In tho Institu tion, which Is of course forwarded by Mr. II Frank Mebane, who stands sponsor for It, and which Is one des tined to dn greiit good In Noriti Car olina It will nfforn full Instruction in the textile Industry and furnish an I rigllsh education besides, and will op. n i wide doop of opportunity t lirltrhl and ambitious boys. The pe i po of the State should hall with Joy the f. in dim; of such nil Institution. In nil the history of this paper Its d'llviry t'.

All e,f the services at tho Klrst Unp tlst church were attended hy largo cotigrenatPins yesterday The pastor, Hev l)r Herman H Hulten. preached In the morning on "Experience the lest of Faith.' and at night on "Thou Fool." The church was crowded at the night ervl4'e. Thero were three member aelOd to the church. The attendance at the Sunday school was 721. The programme as arranged wa one of the mot Interesting the school has yet had. The moving pictures, representing scene from the nible and "Pilgrims Progress" were enjoy. d to the fullest. JIAKIK CAIUMi Itf CAS I. Two Itejxtru-rs hitol Down ami Kpend Half an Hour With tlte Popular Conudlt;nne In Her I'rlvato Car . Some of Uio Conversation. k Through the ' slop hurt night a Chronicle man and ail Observer man strolled down to tho Southern depot and located the car of Marie Cahlll, who la resting here In preparation for "Marrying Mary", to-night. " ivVV'' Her manager, her husband, and she had Just finished dinner' when tho reporters arrived. , The threa , kept their seats at the table, to which their guests ' pulled up chairs and mad themselves at home. My! but those were rood : cigars, ; It. was a very cosy ptaca in thera and vary genial society. Miss Cahlll rested her elbows on the table, contributed eagerly to the talk on whatever sub ject was introduced, and laughed In the same Infectious manner she has on the stago. " , ; "You will be glad to hear that your house will propably be aa large as It was last year," aald a reporter, 'whon you played Sarah Bernhardt to a standstill. . ' i "That's so, that's so!" aald Miss Cahill, remembering, and addressing her husband and manager, who were not with her on her last tour South. Bernhardt played In Salisbury that night and they ran special trains there, and yet I had a bigger house than ever." Conversation then turned upon Bernhardt as an actress. Miss Cahlll was of opinion that she la the greatest of actresses, except Rachel. "Rachel eHtabllshed the school of which Bern hardt Is a disciple, and she Is en titled to the credit for originality. Of course. If what we read and hear nowadays about Rachel Is true, she was superhuman, but tradition, when Hernhardt dies, will do the same thing for her." "Rachel has the same creau ior being the greatest actress as Jim Hearne has to being the greatest theatre character this country has produced," said Miss CahlU's hus band, a graceful, affable gentleman. -t thontrht Edwin Booth was un questionably the king of the Ameri can stage," said a reporter. "Aa an actor, yes," sain tne nost. "But Jim Hearne was a prime play wright as well as a great actor. His 'Shorn Acres' was a new type of plAy, 8nd he was aluo among the foremost theatrical managers." Talk wandered to Stephen rmmps, Rostand, and the other playwriters who have reverted to the classic school, and a half an hour or more slipped by pleasantly. "By George," saia ine woseiver to The Chronicle man, on their way back to the shop, "we forgot tne main thing!" "That's a certain fact," regretted tho other, "for what we first Intended to do was to tell her that there Is a wholesale demand for her song, vunrv rtrown ' But we'll tell her about that through the paper and she can use it for an encore." - SF.KKSt Mil.

School Institute 'Cloaca,' i : t , : '; .. . . In : the Southern ' Presbyteilan Church, Rev. Dr, A. h. Phillips Is one of the most earnest workers. Hla auo cess Is jmost largely evidenced in his work as ecretary of the General As sembly's committee on Sunday schools and young people's societies. He Is also an interesting speaker and help ful preacher. Hla twd sermons yester day at the Second Presbyterian church were much enjoyed. ' Hla subject at tne morning service was "Brother hood," and his text was "Be strong and. Quit yourselves like men." Sam. . ' '.. . ,' ,:..,' In part ha saldi "Tou will hear an echo of this expression In the second epistle of Paul to the Corinthians when he tells them to quit themselves like men. These are the only times this expression,- I think, is used In the Scriptures. I want to talk to you this morning about the men of the Church, about brotherhood. "in the incident from which the words I have read were taken, the Israelites were frightened, so much so that they resorted to superstition to carry them through the trying time they were facing. They remembered the ark of God and decided to send and bring It Into the camp. They trusted to it to give them victory over their enemies, tho Philistines. The nr.emy heard the shout of the Israel ites when the ark of God was brought Into the cam'n and asked the reason of it. When , they learned the cause they were urged to show tholr strength and to quit themselves like men. It is no wonder that Israel was over come by the enemy, for when there comes a contest between superstition and manhood, manhood always wins. Men of tho Church, we are facing a new era, an era for men to work for Ood. Never has there been such an age of opportunity. Look at the condition in the South; look at the growth and development during the past few years; look at the Industrial progress of your city und State. What does all this mean? It means an Increase of responsibility and oppor tunity. How are we meeting this re sponsibility? "The type of manhood which we represent Is Calvlnlstlc. the type rep resented by Balfour, the prime minis ter of England, and Theodore Roose velt, our chief magistrate in the United States. Wc have to face the situation through this tyoe of man hood. This type of manhood stands for broad Intelligence, among other things, for everywhere this type goes thero springs up a college. "This type of manhood represents also a heart, a hesyt that feels. "This typo of mahhood represents a conscience, a conscience that will not do wrong. It is n'it hard to under stand why the courts never want a man of this type on a jury In a shaky case, It Is because the court knows such a man will toll tho truth, and will not do wrong "This type of manhood represent!1 also a hand that Is ready to do. "It is a certain faith that makes this type of manhood, and this type is now on tral. "You aro brought face to face with a new situation. What are you go ing to do? You are not going to run away from It, and you are not going to sit still; you cannot discharge your duty by running away or by sitting still. We must fr.ee the duty before us and Improve the type of manhood which is our heritage If we are to meet the situation before us. We are not going to change this type of man hood, but we must bring it to a high er eminence. This must be done hy tuachlng men to love Ood and men better, and to Improve consclenoe. "We tnii.il have a new determina tion for largur service. What wo want is men more than what they have. Think of the responsibility resting upon the men of our Church, men who ure Calvlnists and of the type of manhood I have mentioned. In Asia and Africa alone there are 26,000.000 Immortal souls turned over to these men to be saved. And what are we doing to save them? We are giving only $2:0,000 annually for that purpose, and that is Inadequate for such a great work. It Is left to men to administer large affairs, and this honor we should vuluc, and we should gladly discharge our duty to those who know not Uod. If we meet the re sponsibility of brotherhood, we must do this, and If we work together we can soon meet it. Edward Everett Halo has spoken well In saying "To Kether Is the word for the JOth cen tury,' and Lyman Abbott has done the ame In saying 'Brotherhood Is tho :iumptt ii.ll of the 20th century.' "A Calvlnists let us keep the old type that has been ours so long and touple with this a new manhood. "Lit us emphasise this brotherhood; lot us have brotherhood In prayer, brotherhood in the studyof the Bible and brotherhood In social and personal work. Let us summon new devotion to the Church and to Christ." Last night Dr. Phillips spoke on "The Spiritual Life of tho Sunday School," and this service closed the Sunday School Institute, which has been In session at the Second church for the past three days.

This knowledge is gained only by persistent search and : study of styles and fabrics.' Our buyers are home again after spending more than of what is newest and most desirable. Every ex press for many weeks to come will bring to ' our - Keady-to-Wear Department the results of their ef forts. x Fabrics and Colorings Plaids, Stripes and Mixtures in Light Colorings are much used in the development of spring suits. These are. shown in Black and White, Two-toned Grays, Browns, Tans, and in most cases small lines of Red, Blue or Green are evident. Panama weaves are most popular for medium-priced suits. In solids these come in Black, Grays, Blues, Browns, Tans, Champagne and Leather. Next in popularity is Voiles, in all the staple and new shades, including Leather, Geranium and many "soft shades of Tan. A novelty touch is given some of these by lining of fancy stripe or check silk, but most of the Voile suits will be lined with self-colored taffeta. Suit Models The first favorite in spring selections is the Eton. There are many points in the Eton suit of this spring which will distinguish it trom the Eton of last year. A great deal of novelty has been introduced in the de signing, the broad-shoulder treatment given them, and called by most designers "the Gibson effect," is one of the distinctions. Much novelty is also shown in the new sleeves. The Eton appears in the blouse form as well. Of almost equal importance with the Eton and Blouse Eton is the Tailored Suit in fitted and semi-fitted effects. The cutaway effect is being extensively shown, and much novelty in design comes from the strappings and the new vests. Pony and Poneto styles arc' shown, but' are not so. popular as either the Eton or the tailored models. Much of the novelty and beauty of the spring suit is given by the skirt. Plaited styles prevail almost exclusively, with variations of panelling and arrange ment of strappings, and sometimes folds around th8 bottom. The most novel and spring-like of all is the three piece suit, the jumper suit and the pinafore suit. The three-piece suit consists of skirt, jumper and Eton. The jumper suit consists of skirt and suspender ef fects of many picturesque designs. The pinafore suit resembles a blouse cut out about the arms' eye and neck, and tastily ornamented with strappings and buttons. The jumper suit and the pinafore suit will be developed principally in silk plaids, stripes and plain taffetas, and lousines will be much used. Separate Coats Polo Coats in Plaids, Mixtures and Stripes, with noveltv strappings and pockets will be much used through the spring season by young ladies and misses; 22 and 23-inch coats in fitted and semi-fitted models are shown, made ud in Mixtures, Coverts, Black Venetians and Broadcloth. Long models for dress occasions, also for travel ing, will be worn, developed in Silk, Cloth of Gold and Pongee.
