The subject of birthdays came up
during the conversation. The elder
ly lady. telling her age, remarked
that she was born on the 23d of Ap
ril. Her husband, who waa present,
observed, "I always thought you
were born on the 1st of April."
"People might well Judge so," re
sponded the lady, "in the choice I
made of a husband."

It isn't often that 1 go to church,
but somehow 1 was persuaded to go
Sunday. There was a bunch pres

cause of the fact that a new star was
in the box or not. Anyway there
was a stand of boosters there and
they seemed anxious to get a line on
his work. He is certainly there with
the goods and performed to the satis
faction of all present. In spite of
the fact that he is somewhat new on
the local grounds he got to going
good right in the first inning. En
couraged by the coachers in tho
"Amen corner" he let himself loose
and had them well in hand at ail
times. His new Jerusalem slow-ball

on eternal punishment his speed was
terrific. As this was the first time 1
ever saw him work out I can't pre

O, well 1 remember, the hour was

for that robbin's song the limbs

glad, glad thoughts that came to my

lest his words should meet a short

voice that was strangely sweet, "Well

THE NFiROlORTtlANR SOUTH
All good cltlxens In the South as
well as in the North deplore lynch
ing lawlessness and hope to see It
come to an end, but very few will
fall to recognise that Rev. R. C. Ran
som, colored, of New York, Is as in
sincere as he is absurd when h.e In
timates that with a record of lynch
ing In our own land we have no right
to obpect to the massacre of Armen
ians or the devastation of Belgium,
and with pompous inaccuracy de
clares that "while negro soldiers are
carrying liberty and freedom across
the Rhine let us carry it aown tne
Mississippi."
The need of carrying freedom
"down the Mississippi" Ib no less im
aginary than the present transporta
tion of that blessing by negro sol
diers 'across the Rhine." An aver-
.... i it ui , I . . v M v 1 DflR th:in :i hun
dred negro criminals or ausyouuiu
criminals are lynched in a year,
while more than nine millions of
that race are left in the peaceful pur
suit nf nrosnerltv and hanniness. and.
on the whole, this pursuit is more;
successful in the South tnan in tne
Nnrth: for in the former, where he
is less embarrassed by labor-union
discrimination and personal dislike,
the negro has a wider Industrial op-1
portunity. In the South negroes!
guilty or suspected of atrocious
crimes are occasionally lynched; it is
Only in the North, as the cnicago in
hune observes, that negroes us a
class are ever "mobbed, beaten and
run out of town."
"The real race prejudice is ours,"
says the Chicago paper. "Our very
philanthropists betray it. I hey suy
to the black man. '(Sod bless you, i
good-bye.' whereas, the South says.
' - you, come here." Or put
It this way: The northerner Is a
great friend of tho negro but not of
a negro; the southerner Is a great
friend of a nefCrO but not of the ne
gro. In the North t' e negroes es
cape barbarous punishment for their
occasional crimes while winning no
appreciation for their habitual vir
tues. They are disliked. When their
presence becomes a burden,, as at
East St. Louis. III., they are abused.
Our observation goes to show that
the negro Is happiest when the white
MM asserts Its superiority, provided
thnt sympathy and understanding ac
company the assertion. Not long
ago a Virginian noticed a very
gloomy hlack porter in a northern
hotel, and, learning that he had come
from Virginia, said, You black
fool, go hark to Virginia.' The reply
revealed much: 'Oh. Cunnel, dem's
de fust kind wtids dat's been spoken
to me since Ah come up Noff.' South
erners enforce the color line, yet
they will work side by side with ne
groes, befriend them in adversity,
and overlook their minor failings.
Gradually they are working toward
better surroundings for the negro.
They do not hate negroes. In their
henrt" they like them."
Rev. R. C. Ransom, who li too dis
creet to accuse the North as well as
the South, would do well to ponder
the sage remark of Mr. Dooley: "Us
naught troubled whin the naygur is
amongst his oppressors, Hinnessy.
Whst troubles me is whin he falls
Into the hands of his liberators."
