the difficulty Is kidney trouble, and the first

The Dukea We been great given to
Methodist institutions in North Caro
lina, but their liberality has dwarfed
the spirt of giving amongst the rank
ar file of the Methodist church. That
is one dan eer of having rich men in a
denomination. The others all learn to
lean on them for everything. The
Dukes have been benefactor to the
whole state, bufwe are sincerely glad
they are not Baptist men."
Che foregoing paragraph is from the
pen of that usual clear and level-headed
man, Archibald Johnson, editor of
Charity and Children. Bui it is
unique proposition he lays down in the
closing sentence. "The Dukea have
been benefactors to the whole state,
but we are sincerely glad they had hap
pened to be Baptist men.' Suppose
they bad happened to be Baptist men,
would their liberality be spurned by
Baptist institutions? And suppose,
being Methodists, and rich, were they
to make a large donation to the Thorn
asville orphanage, would Brother John'
son favor declining it? Is there any
where on record an instance in which
any orphanage, echool, college or church
ever turned down a donation from
anybody? And has there ever been,
since the dawn of creation, at least in
civilized times, an expression like this,
by a member of one church in regard
to members of another denomination,
who are acknowledged "benefactors of
the whole state ?"
It really does not sound like Archi
bald Johnson. "Sincerely glad they
are not Baptist men." The editor of
Charity and Children evidently bases
his "gladness" on his own statement
that "their liberality has dwarfed the
spirit of giving amongBt the rank and
tile of the Methodist church." Is that
statement trne? Look back and point
out where the "rank and ' file" were
tumbling over each other to build and
ndow colleges before the Dukes started
giving to Trinity. And where has the
evidence appeared to prove the rank
and file are doing less now than form
erly ? And is there any evidence that
Trinity would have been the strong
institution it is to-day but for the lib
eral giving of the Dukes?
While Editor Johnson is sincerely
giaa me uuites are not Baptist men,
there are thousands of people in North
Carolina who are sincerely glad they
are Methodis men, and would be proud
of more like them.
it mere is a awarled spirit among
the Methodists on account of the lib
erality of the Dukes it has been pro'
duced by narrow, selfish and preju
diced criticism. We believe the people
of North Carolina becoming too broad'
minded to long allow their spirit to be
dwarfed by tbe acta, liberal or other
wise, of any man, or a thousand men.
We believe that all denominations,
of whatever creed or belief, would be
benefited by having as members rich
men who are "benefactor to the whole
state," and we believe the rank and file
of the membership, certainly all who
are progressive and broad-minded,
would be "sincerely glad" to own and
acknowledge them as brethren

Judge Gary, at the recent meeting
of Steel Trust stockholders In Hoboken,
said in the course of an argument :
"Your opinion reminds me of tbe
objection a lawyer once made to a
Judge's sentence. This Judge had
given a prisoner, convicted of second
degree murder, thirty years' solitary
confinement, whereupon the lawyer
cried out :
"But' your Honor, my client is old.
He won't live thirty years."
"Well, then," said the Judge, "I'll
shorten his sentence to life imprison
ment if you prefer it"

An Irishman fell from a ladder, and

that the man was dead, whereupon Pat

charge. 1 ' Whist, now Pat," exclaimed
one of the bystanders, "don't be talk-

SAGB 1KB TBI! VACATION
IDEA.
Sunny South.
Russell Sage, who holds the dubious
record of ability to make a dollar do
more profitable flip-flaps than any man
living, has become a publicist. It
would be interesting to know the size
of tne chock wnicn ne receives lor nis
dreary jeremaids and it is a safe gamble
that the figures are sufficiently luscious
to make it worth his while for Uncle
"Rubs" was never known to pass an
unpaying moment. Strange, is it ndt,
that as soon as men have earned the
reputation of being successful wealth
accumulators they have a yearning to
lecture or scold the world on any one
of a dozen vital or abstruse subjects?
But Uncle Russell, in yielding to the
scribbling mania which devastated Car
negie and Schwab and Rockefeller, has
cannily combined business with relaxA'
tion, in the extremely happy choice of
his subject. He excoriates the custom
of annual vacations and thereby dig
pels any vagrant ideas in the minds of
his own employees. With incompar
able nerve be clinches the matter by
declaring that in place of asking for
salaried vacations, employees should
give their employers two weeks' service
gratis for the privilege of "learning
the business." Verily, "use doth
breed a habit in a man." Uncle Sage
has so completely diverted his abilities
and emotions (sic) to the task of im
proving every possible opportunity for
pelf-pulling, that his viewpoint has be
come distorted so that he can only see
questions as they effect his little pen
chant, s
His ability for other pleasures has
become atrophied from disuse. Instead
of viewing wealth as a means to an
end, he has come to regard it aa the
end itself. Holding the opinion that
only one thing is worth strife and
that money he is incapable of con
ceiving bow others can bold broader
views. It is probable that the man
never had what is called by the generous
name of youth. From the start he
was bent and sickened into his present
warped shape. He has never felt that
glorious flow of life's tide, which calls
for some exertion other than tbe piling
up of dollars.
Not once does it occur to him that
the majority of people work primarily
for a living and that accomplished, -they
turn to pleasure for others, for them
selves, self-improvement and tbe build
ing of these graces which money can
not purchase. The logical conclusion
of his doctrine would be a brutalization
of life a making of it into a treadmill
with no time for rest or variety. How
ever, he cannot be blamed for following
his own bent. He is one of the hu
man abnormalities which characterize
civilization, and their chief punish'
ment is the very fact of their existence,
Nor is there near danger that his
views will gain wide prestige. Tbe
average American is too sane of mind
and wholesome of nature to drift into a
misinterpretation which permits life to
become a mere grabbling, mechanical
process.
A flood Samaritan.
Harperl Weekly.
A Southern writer tells this story of a
negro preacher's version of the Good
Samaritan: There was a traveler on
lonely road, said the preacher, who
was set upon by thieves, robbed, and
left wounded and helpless by the way
side. As he lay there various persons
passed him, but none offered to assist
him. Presently, however, a poor Sa
mantan came by and taking pity on
the wounded man's plight, helped him
on his mule and took him to an inn,
where he ordered food and drink and
raiment for the man, directing thtfinu
keeper to send the bill to him. "And
dis am a true story, brethiren," con
.... 4k. - .
eluded tbe preacher; Tfor de inn am
standin' dere yet, and in de do'way
am standin' de skel'ton ob de inn'
keeper, waitin' fer de Good Samaritan
to come back an' pay de bill."
Let the Press not become drunk from
the freedom with which it now feels
endowed. Some fellows apeak out
mighty bold after tbe game is bagged,
and there is an insincere rattle of
words. Honest criticism made fairly
and without prejudice carries with it
power and commands respect, through
it may not always convince. There is
limit to all thing. If the Press
wishes to wield a mighty influence, let
it remain within bounds Albemarle

lfounar matron Compels Pour men
I'nder Cover'ofGUB to Leave Creek
and .larches Tbsm to Court.
Armed with a shotgun loaded with
buckshot, Mrsftleorge W. Vibbert, of
Danbury, Conn who only a short
time ago ceased to be a school teacher
to become one of Danbury's charming
young matrons, compelled four young
men, from seventeen to twenty years
old, who were swimming in a brook
that flows near her home, to come out
of the water and don their clothes,
Then she made them march to the po
lice station, two miles from her bouse,
.The spectacle of this queer procession
through the streets attracted much at
tention, and a big crowd followed it to
a justice's office.
Four penitent and frightened young
men lined up in front of the captain's
desk, while Mrs. Vibbert, indignant,
and holding the shotgun threateningly
stood behind them.
"What's all this?" asked Captain
Aradley, in amazement, as he surveyed
the array of youthful crestfallenness and
andfeminine indignation before him.
"These rowdies," said Mrs. Vibbert,
ber eyes blazing, "were swimming in
the brook near my house. There are
signs all along the brook forbidding
swimming and the place where they
went in is in full view of our piazza.
I guess they won't swim any more in
that brook, and I'll shoot tbe next man
I find there."
"Did they have on bathing suits,"
asked Captain Bradlep, gently.
"Indeed they did not!" exclaimed
Mrs. Vibbert. "I stood back of a bush
and made them come out aud dress.
They dressed mighty quick, too, be
cause if they hadn't they would have
received a dose of what is in this gun."
The four youths corroborated every
detail of their fair captor's story, mean
while keeping a respectful eye on the
gun.
The four bathers were taken before
Judge Scott, of the cily court, and their
cases were continued.
Mrs. Vibbert took her gun, boarded
a trolley car and went home, promising
to be on hand to press the charge.

SNYDER' LITTLE BUNDLE.
New Turk Herald.
Sitting near the centre of a north'
bound Madison avenue car yesterday
afternoon was Wm. Snyder, a stalwart,
broad-shouldered man. tenderly hue
ging to his breast a little bundle, from
which came planitive piping wails.
Snyder looked uncomfortable. He
softly patted the bundle and nlurmured
just loudly enough to be beard by the
other passengers. "There, there, Eva
sn-h-hl little one," but his minis
trations were of no avail and the wails
became louder. "
Tender hearted women in the car be'
came distressed. "Wheie a tbe poor
thing's mother J" said one. "Isn't it
a shame?" said another. . Snyder
looked more uncomfortable, but be
kept his head bowed over the bundle
and still patted and cooed to it.
When 63d street was reached the
cries of little Eva became almost vio
lent, and then it was that one tender
hearted woman reached over to Snyder
and said, "Let me take the child for a
minute." Snyder let her, and as she
hugged the "little one" to her bosom
she softly uncovered the op part of the
bundle, uttered a shrift and dropped it
to the floor.
Simultaneously there was a run for
the door by all the other women, while
Snyder sat dumfounded by the unex
pected departure. It could be seen
that his feelings bad been hurt by such
treatment. From her position in the
middle of the floor little Eva looked up
grinning a very excellent specimen of
a ringtailed monkey.
When Snyder recovered his breath
he explained that he was a keeper in
the Central Park Menagerie, and that
be was taking Eva there irom au ani
mal store down-town.
The President Helens a Negro to Nce
ond His Nomination.
Washington Dispatch.
In accordance with the eternal fitness
of things, President Roosevelt has de
cided that a colored man sholl make
one of tbe speecbei seconding bis nom
ination at the Chicago convention,
Originally the President agreed upon a
plan whereby his nomination should
be seconded by Republican spellbinders
from the East, South, West, and mid
dle West respectively. Wednesday the
four selections were announced, and
the fact was called to the President's
attention that he had overlooked the
negro in the distribution of these pyro
technical honors, and that he should
promptly remedy tbe error. It was
only neceesajy to point to thr fact that
the negro vote in six doubtful States is
essential to his election.
Tbe President is said to haye been
beside himself for being guilty of such
a careless oversight, though Mr. Cor
telyou was charged with the blame.
Immediately the President began to
look around for an available negro
delegate who meets the requirements of
the situation. If he looked ove rXorth
Carolina he must have passed it by hur
riedly, for the two negro delegates from
that State Cheatham and Vick he
removed from office. However, it is
announced that Harry S. Cunning, a
negro lawyer in Baltimore, has been
chosen aa the representative of the
black race to present the President's
name to the convention. He is a dele
gate from one of the Maryland districts.

Pardon me, sir," said tbe straw-
vote idiot, "but are you for Hearst for

SHOULD A WOMAN BE HANGED?
Charlotte Chronicle.
In every one of tbe rare instances
when a woman is condemned to death
for murder there is raised, as the day
approach for inflicting the penalty of
the law, what seems like a vehement
demand for a commuption of the sen4
tence to imprisonment for life. With
this demand, though everybody with
inclination and ability to think recog
nizes that it is wholly sentimental and
utterly illogical, there is, of course,
general sympathy of a sort, and many
people who could not, to save their own
lives give an efficient reason for allot
ing different treatment to murderers
and murderesses will sign petitions for
executive clemency in behalf of the lat
ter when they would let the former go
to shameful death without any except
the most academic of questioning as to
the utility and propriety of capital pun
ishment. Yet those same people would be in
dignant enough if a legislature passed
and a Governor signed a law which
fixed death as the penalty for murders
committed by men and life imprison
ment for those of which women are
convicted. As a matter of fact, no
such proposition was ever made, so far
as we remember, and it is as little like
ly to be offered by the tender-hearted
folks who have been so much excited
by the case of the Valentina woman
over in New Jersey as by those who
have viewed ber peril with repulsion,
indeed, but with full appreciation of tbe
truth that in the eyes of the law she
was a criminal, not a woman, and with
enough regard for consistency not to
protest, or even exclaim over, the exe
cution of a statute of an application no
broader than that of other statutes.
There is no easier way in tbe world
for one to lose a good name than to
have it engraveiVon the handle of an
