They came to this country from Russia five years ago. The couple were very lumpy until six months ago, when Dhernock was taken ill and had to give up his work. All the money they nad saved went for phy sicians and medicine. When the funds were exhausted. Mrs. Dhernock, 25 years old, and pretty, went out to work to earn a paltrysum to support the little fam ily. The young husband brooded constantly over his ill health, and the fimt that his wife had to work. Dhernock was more cheerful Wed- nerday and when his wife was about to start for her daily toil, he said; ‘‘Come home early today, Mollie; you know this is our wedding anniversary We will have a little celebration; a dinner/' Mrs. Dhernock was home prompt ly and they had a merry little ^ They nsti tet8j£«ieek le party, and shortly ai ling the by He f His eyes ^rere open, but glazed.

Did I do that?" shriek- ed the husband. . Looking intently at his wife for a moment, Dhernock rushed to the window and leaped out. He landed on his head in the yard, four stories below. His skull, his legs and arms were broken and he received inter nal injuries. *~ _ Meanwhile somebody had tele phoned to police headquarters and policomen from the East Twenty- second street station hurried to the house. Dr. Mearscame in an am bulance from Bellevue hospital. Mrs. Dhernock was carried down the stairs to the ambulance. Her husband was taken from the yard and placed beside her. The young wife, with a great ef fort, placed her hand on his face and patted him affectionately. “Oh. Harry, you didn’t mean to do V it, did you? I know you didn’t," she said softly. But he did not answer. He was unconscious and never spoke again. At the hospital he died, and it is only a question of a few hours when she will fcAlow him. After the dying couple had been removed from the house the wife’s mother became hysterical and site, too, was taken to Bellevue in an am- _ bulance. — — " mr ' Immigrants Brides. **’ Those American cities where the big passenger steamers land thous ands of immigrants each year wit ness many romantic marriages be tween long parted lovers.

Otherwise the American Republic will go on the rocks.’’ — This opinion was expressed by Dr. H. Schauinsland, one of the most em inent German scientists who is now Tngkjny a tour of this country. He is in Washington making a study of the scientific departments ef the Government, on which he will make a report to his government when he shall return to his home in Bremea. . “It is my belief," continued Dr. Schauinsland, “that much trpuble is in store for your people in the hand ling of the negro question. Equality of the races does not exist, except in theory. You may as well understand now that the Anglo-Saxon and Ethi- ian will not work in common. Their erences in constitution, in cus toms, in habits, in education—and merely in color—make them substan tially incompatible. In the whole history of the world there is no in stance of the domination of the su perior, by an inferior race. I use the term ‘superior’ and ‘inferior ad visedly, but in no offensive way. The time will come, when a definite line of 'demarcation will be drawn be tween the white and black races in America. It is possible, although not certain, that before that line is drawn it will be necessary for the whites to demonstrate their physi- cal, as well as their mental, super iority. To my mind, this is a prob lem pregnant with serious posibili- ties for Americans. In the end, of course, the result will be the triumph of the white race. The blacks nec essarily will have to take a subordi nate position. That will be as it should be and will make for the best in all respects and for all peoples. “I have been most impressed in this country by your marvelous edu cational facilities. * They have a wealth of material tg work uponand abundant wealth to promote your in stitutions, to carry on your experi ments and to make original investi gations.

I fear many of your newspapers are giving too much to the publication of sensational matter8--mattersthat appeal rather to the emotions than to the reasoning power of readers. In America, the newspapers are more widely read than in other country on the globe. They are, therefore, the most powerful educators.

Mother two Bisters, brother, wife and two sons swore.to avenge his murder. This weird ceremonial took place in the parlor of the Arcara apart ments at No. 400 East lOSth-street^ New York, with a small shrine of SL Rocco at the head of the bier and with the tall candles flickering altout the dimmed room. Little Pietro, the youngest son of the dead man, did not at first under stand the oath, but his grand-father then for the first time explained to him the meaning of the vendetta, that he must not rest until he had avenged in blood the murder of-his father. The lad eagerly took the oath with the rest of the" family, swearing to the stature of St. Rocco that he would never be content until he had slain the slayer of his father. ARRIVED AT SEATTLE.

If death ends all, what an impos ture our system of laws on which so ciety is founded! If we must wholly perish, the maxims of charity and justice aftd the precepts of honor and friendship are empty words. Why should they Le binding if in this life only we have hope? What duty do we owe to the dead, to the living or to ourselves, if all will be nothing? If retribution terminates with the grave, morality is a bugbear of hu man invention. What are the sweet ties of kindred if we shall not live again? What sancity is there to the last wish of the dying if death is a wall instead of a door? What is ob edience to laws but an insane servi tude, justiee an unwarrantable in fringement upon liberty, the laws of marriage a vain scruple, and govern ment an imposition upon credulity, if death ends all? . There was one nation and only, one that ever tried to destroy belief in God and in immortality. France de creed in national convention that there was no God and death an eter nal sleep. The Sabbath wiis abolish ed. churches were turned into tem ples of reason, the Bible waq drag ged along the streets by way of de rision and contempt. Infidelity then reigned and frightful was its reign. Its crown was terror, its throne the guillotine, its scepture the battleaxe, its palace yard a field of blood, and its royal robes dripped with human gore. Gutters were filled with the torn shreds of human flesh. Prop erty was confiscated. The morning breeze and evening wind bore across the vine-clad hills of France the cries of suffering and the shrieks of ter ror, and to carry the metropolis and the kingdom from utter desolation the infidel authorities had to insti tute the Sabbath and public wor ship. Were the belief in God and immortality to die out in the human heart, the flood-gates of vice would open wide, plunge the world .into the grave of despair, and consign humanity «to the dungeons of the damned.

How many of the other 97,706 died from their hurts is not revealed by the Interstate Com merce commission in its report, made public recently containing the fore going figures. Perhaps it was be cause they made a new record in ac cidents that the companies piled up character, point out the moral nec essity of a. future state of. existence and inequalities of the present mor al government will mot only be re dressed, but the whole will be shown to be holy and righteous. There is sin and there is punish ment for sin, which we dally wit ness. But there is not for all sin such a reckoning in this world as meets the claims of righteousness and justice. Do we not see evil do ings go undetected and many bad men pass unpunished? See how often the righteous suffer and the wicked flourish. When we take a deliberate _ view we are naturally led to exclaim: “Wherefore do the wicked live, be come old, yea. are mighty in power? Is there no re waul lortfie right- eous? Is there no punishment for the workers of iniquity? Is there no God that-iudgeth in the earth?’! And indeed were there no retribu tion beyond the limits of this present life, we should be necessarily oblig ed to admit one or the other of the following conclusions: Either that no Moral Governor of the world ex ists or that justice and judgment are not the habitations of His throne. If the moral government of God, the existence of which our experi ence avouches, is ever to have its ad ministrations perfected and wrought to a cgmplete actualizing of its own manifest principles, it can only be in another state of existence, and the double conclusion presses upon usr that there is a future life, and that that life is one of rewards and pun ishment. Earthly providence is a travesty of justice on any other theory than that it is a preliminary stage that is to be followed by rectification.’ God must in justice to Himself, before the as sembled universe, send the evil-doer to desolation, and crown suffering goodness, to show that He was al ways on the side of right* Sia is often in honor here, and goodness in dishonor, and that God may demon strate that He is both just and good, man must stand again after death. The crown must be put upon right-, eousness and injustice driven to its place, bright and nngn in its Righteous Ruler.

Seemingly neither the roads nor the shippers were as badly frightened by the Pres ident as the false prophets would have the nation believe. Most of those who met iqstaht death in the year at the hands of the railways were employes. Only in 359 cases were the victims travelers, a gratifying decrease from the 537 passengers killed in the preceding year. But the railways injure more passengers than in the year before. They hurt 10,794 persons, who had paid for transportation. The report shows that one passen ger was killed for every 2.217.041 carried, while in 1905 one passenger was killed for every 1,375,856 car ried. Ope person was injured for every 74,276 passengers carried, as against one injury in every 70.055 passengers carried in 1905.

The number of locomotives and cars in the service of the railways aggregated 22.010,584. of which l.- 827,780 were fitted with train brakes and 1,989,796 with automatic coup lers.

It isKke the sun, which, to our earthly eye, sinks and sets, but in reality never sinks, but shines on unceasingly." Browning says: this earth is not my “I know sphere, For 1 cannot so narrow me, but that I shall not exceed it." This high ideal which is not reach ed on earte intimates an immortal life, which may afford tim$ari8*cope for its realization. LoweH hoWy says in his elegy on the death of Chan- ning: “Thou art not dead; in thy Jiigher- sphere Thy spirit bends itself to loving tasks. And strength to perfect what is dreamed of here Is all the crown and glory it asks." Theodore Parker on his death-bed said to a friend. “I am not afraid to die, but I might wish to carry on my work. I have only half used the powers God gave me." Emmanuel Kant argued from the existence of a moral law unrealizable here the nec essity of some after-life. Perfection is the heritage with which God has endowed me, and since this short life does not give completeness, I must have the immortal life in which to find'it.

The State says Mr. E. D. Smith, president of the South Carolina Cot ton association, has returned t6 Co lumbia and found hundreds of let ters awaiting him ft^ing for advise to the disposing of cotton. To ail of these Mr. Smith replied, “Hold your cotton." Other letters urged him to issue an address to the- people and accordingly the following was given to The State Friday: “After a trip through the West, I find on my return numerous requests from different parts of the State asking me to urge the people to hold their cotton from the market until the price set by the Southern Cotton association and the Farmers’ union is reached. “If ever there was a time when the conditions were clear and un mistakable, without there being any complications, it is now. It is a clear case of pure speculation against real conditions. To put the case as it is, so that any one may see what tribute we are paying to gamblers because we are not organized to withstand them, the facts are these: The mills have sold their output for months ahead on a basis of 15 cents per pound; the demand for goods at these prices increasing; the price of the manufactured article actually advancing; thejsupply of cotton in sight, the present crop unquestiona bly short, probably 2,000,000 bales less than last year; the demand for cotton for the current year far in excess of the supply; the condition of the crop steadily deteriorating; the mills running full time eager for cotton; no alarming conditions in the money market; no complica tions at home or abroad, particular ly with the spinners 30 days ago buying cotton cheerfully and prpfit- ably-ot l+'centS tfief T4l-2 cents per pound. Yet in the face of all these favorable conditione the price has dropped from 2 1-2 cents to 3 cents per pound. Why? Because a few speculators, who neither grow nof cotton, please to have it so. question is squarely up to the South, the whole South, the mer chant, the banker, farmer, lawyer, doctor, preacher and laborer fti any and every vocation, avocation or profession, whether they will tame ly submit to this outrage, whether they will allow these gentry to ex act a fall from us, at their pleasure, of from $10 to $25 per bale or whether they will put their price on their property and refuse to aocept any otner. The only answer to this absurd decline is tojrefuae to take the prices offered. “In the West they are making a brave stand. They are complaining bitterly that the Atlantic States are not standing for the price agreed up on. Hbw true this is, I am not able to say. Let every man in South Carolina who has cotton to sell drop me a postal card saying how many bales he has and how many he will hold. I will compile the number and f ive it to the public, so that we may now what to depend upon. If we would absolutely refuse torsell a bale ofcottod now, stop receipts, then reaction would be immediate. ‘ The only possible way to remedy Wl Ba CWfffbSK kUtexthM- Itortial Rffttim /, ■ States’ Trusts, the Other Likely to Figaro ta the A dispatch from Washington to The Charleston Post says gradually the sentiment of the people of the with respect tone Demo- nomination for the presidency next year is taking form. Definite ly* is being brought about not so much hymen, asDy policies. The feeling among Democrats of the country is practically uniform in all sections that during the next nation al administration, something will have to be done regarding the tariff question. That feeling is not confin ed, to be sure, to the Democratic party, but the sentiment is more ho mogeneous and definite among Dem ocrats than it is among Republicans. A strong “stand-pat" sentiment ex ists amohg the Republicans and the differences of bpimon among Repub licans on tiie tariff renders it the eas ier for the Democrats, who substan tially are a unit on the proposition, to make headway with their propag anda. It daily is becoming evident that the tariff revision question is to be a prominent, perhaps the paramount, issue of the next national campcugn. In the selection of a candidate for the presidency, therefore, the Demo cratic party, particularly, will en deavor to name a man who has been a consistent and able tariff reformer. This is the situation which, to a greater extent than any other, is di recting the finger of destiny at one man. The man, in the opinion of many of the prominent Democrats who recently nave visited Washing ton, is William J. Bryan. He is re garded as the ablest advocate of tar iff revision in the Democratic party, and when the tariff question as a leading issue he would ne the logical candidate. Some apprehension has been felt by the party leaders as to Mr. Bry an’s strength in the South, but a&- this outrageous condition is to refuse to submit to it. “With present conditions warrant ing 15-cent cotton,, acknowledged by all parties to be worth 15 cents, u the people put it on the market at present prices, then we acknowledge that neither the law of supply and demand, the condition of trade and finance, or the cost of‘production have anything to do with the price or value of cotton, but simply the caprice of a few millionaire gam ble rs. Surelv we are paying dearly for the privilage of being disorga nized, for bein^r without warehouses, Without organized capital to hold our cotton. “Can not each community meet at once and devise meanh, where'there are none, to help each other to hold cotton. It will take organized co operation to accomplish qur purpose. “Every bale sold at the present rices means a gift of $15 to $20 per e to the gambling bunch to en able them to take a like or a great er amount from your next bale. “Ex-Gov.

Senator F. M. Simmons, of North Carolina, voiced the Southern sentiment well when he said a day or two ago that the people of his section regarded Mr. Bryan as “the great- est advocate of the people’s’ rights and interests which this generation has produced.’ Senator Simmons said tnat with the elimination of the question of Government ownership and that of the initiative and refer- endum, on which the people of the South differed from Mr. Bryan, the Nebraska leader would be able to command the support of the South witnout serious opposition.
