GREAT MEN.
We cannot gain anything by pointing
out with great eloquence the acts and
lccomplu:mem- «J fent men. Such
can only console us by knowing what
can be done. Every imfividuaf must
perform his own task in life, and
to boast of others’ acts and deeds s
folly. Our duty s to do our best to
bring to the surface that which is with
in nx,. No one can find happiness ex
cept it be in his own labor, {Vr find it
a perpetual task for the individual o
understand himself, and when we usurp
valuable time watching the development
of our wise brother, we neglect our.
selves. We should develop according
to our own perceptions, nntrulu- leas
ure in comparing our labor witn the
wise brother, .\rcn can excel in quan
tity, but all men can boast of a chance
to produce in quality. What gives value
to our work is quality. Thus the pride
of those who produce hittle is as gres
as those who produce much,
OUR PAPER.
The unique history of the Afro-Amer
ican Advance up to this time, accord
ing to public concession, has marked a
period of progress among our citizens
that no other local negro organ has ever
accomplished The independent policy
of this paper, to deal just and equitable
by all regardless of circumstances or
conditions, has caused the most san
guine to acknowledge s true worth
and invaluable mission. As a bold and
fearless champion of truth and right, we
have always removed the shield of self
ish dignity, and allowed the enemies and
admirers of the truth to justly criticise
the self-sacrificing policy of t‘is paper.
To the thoughtiul, and those who de
light in dealing with human facts, un
varnished, we feel safe in expecting
your support,
PERFECTION,
No man attains perfection in this life
The lrnlc?mwfr One Possesses 1o con
"ler imperfections the more numerous
they become apparent, [f a man be
lieves himself to t:e periect his deception
ol himself destroys the light of his hife,
and the pivot of existence will direct the
reason nowhere, The very acknowledg
ment of our imperfections makes us
cligible to higher conceptions and fit us
for things uncommon among men. We
should admire a person's perfections,
but never believe that he or she is with
out faults, though they might have
every appearance of perfection. It is
incumbent and a duty owed by those
who are advanced in the art of per
fection, to congeal all imperfections
from the weaker, that they might be
inspired to a higher plane of civiliza.
ton.
MARRIAGE,
When we object to a man's matri
monial choice we seek to destroy his
individuality. Tt is all wrong to believe
that the contrast in nationality accords
the masses the privilege of dictating a
man or woman's choice in the sacred
secret alliance. which mutual admira
tion alone can form. The effections
manifested by a white woman is noth
in% less than that of a colored woman.
Why should society ostracize a Cau
cassian-African unton? Time alone
will ve that the sacred chord which
ui(us:othc kindred of the entire human
race, re“u‘tcu of unjust customs of
men, will ere long be caught up by the
masses.
SOCIAL LIFE.
We need additional force to those of
the race who adheres little to the social
side of life. We want that quality among
us who thirst for lmu;l\edn m the
world of progressive Ih«“hl. and pow
er in the comemrcial wor Our social
ambition continues to deprive the race
of its power to organize for commer
cial benefit. Let the social side adjust
itsell. The enemy which destroys the
vital principles of our peace and mate
rial advancement is the spirit of rival
for social position. Our fostered am
&m must rise above that of social
combatants if ever we expect to become
a 4 power among men,
' QUALITY. 5
There is a specific quality in the make
up of a human being which rever fails
to uh&::om voluminous conjexintes
in the of vile epithets. This qual-
ity was possessed by Christ. A man
should never become alarmed at the
bountiful and pre-existing freaks in hu
man nature, 'i,t 1s nothing but a “bow
wow.” Good characteristics never fail
to breed numberless enemies, Seund
thinkers laugh 1o scorn the sneak who
attempts to sceretly undermine a pure
character, knowing that the hatred of
his emmmruuits will ultimately claim
him as a victim.
Since the res:fnation of Rev. Hart
from Bethesda Baptist Church, the us
ual number of gossipers with their
tongues tied in the middle (prim:ipall‘y
reoplc who are disinterested in the wel
are of the church), are m;kinf mon
keys of themselves by unintelligently
discussing what they know absolutely
nothing about. These people ought to
mind &cir own business and let Rev.
Hart and his affairs alone. We lug~
pose Rev. Hart will exist even at the
forfeiture of his home in this city. These
gossipers had better seek other occupa
tions than prying into something which
does not concern them.
The Twin Cities will bé favored with a
Democratic colored newspaper in a few
days. We welcome in advance our
new visitor,
A CORNER DEVOTED TO POLI-
S - ——
Political bees are beginning to buzz,
and it is not a strange sight nowadays
to see groups of men trying to out talk
the other, concerning the merits of this
one or that; how much pull he has, or
what wonid be the outcome if elected,
etc.
The coming Republican convention
that is soon to be held, will settle a good
many random guesses, and satisfy a
goo«% many ambitious office seekers,
robable candidates are as thick as
women at a W. C. T. U, convention.
Everybody is up and around casting
about for the surest winner, from his
point of view.
* The conviction is stealing over a good
many of the Republican voters that they
have found their man in the person of
C. K. Sharood, the big shoe king down
on Fifth and Broadway. And they pur
pose 1o make him mayor if he will aflow
the use of his name. Mr, Sharood is
public spirited. He 15 above petty preju

HARRY SHEPHERD.,
Harry Shepherd, the colored photog
rapher from St. Paul, has been dis
missed from service in the negro exhibit
department of the Paris exposition,
Shepherd has been in the southern
states for some time securing photo
gnphu for use in his department, but
e took occasion while there to preach
anarchy and advised the negroes to
combine against the United Smtcs in
the event of war with foreign powers.
This, he says, is the only solution of the
race problem. When taxed with his
misconduct he made no denials and ai
ter his discharge openly boasted to a
reporter of a local %mper of circulating
inflammatory circulars while in the
South. Shepherd has left Washington
for the West, ;
We regret to learn that Mr. Harry
Shepherd has lost that “fat position.”
This race problem is a delicate ques
tion to deal with, particularly when a
good position is at stake. Fortunate
people are not without an army of en
emies and conservatism ought always
to be the watchword of the lucky.
WHY WE SIT ON TABLES,
The Selentifie l;'-n s They Are More
Magnetic Than Chalrs, Says
This Writer,
About 10,000,000 women are exasper
ated every day by men sitting on tables,
Bo far ax I am aware, says a writer in
Criterlon, women do not pay for the
furniture, and it is none of their busi
neas how it is used. The habit of men
sitting on tables has led to the inven
tion of the cushioned billlard table and
will no doubt uitimately result inother
clever notions. Atone time it was sup
posed that men chose to sit on tables
because they conld get exercize without
exertion by swinging their own legs and
by kicking the legs of the table. The
scientifio fact Is that tables are more
magnetio than chairs, If three men
walk into a room where there is no wom
an, two of them will make for the table
naturally. The third one will try two
or three chairs and finally give up in
despair and join the others. The source
of this magnetism is the friction that
women ereate by polishing tables so
frequently. Of course, women say that
they only polish tables because men
sit on them and spoll them, but this
is illogical and feminine. No really
clever men sit on chairs. They use
their chairs for keeping their papers
and things on, also their feet.
Chalrs are notoriously immoral. You
will notice that a well-bred man, when
he finds himself losing his temper, in
variably gets up from his ehair and
makes a direct line for the nearest table.
This enables him to keep his temper
aud to argue reasonably.
SNAKES AS HOG FATTENER.
Weat Virginia Farmers Make Use of
the Reptiles That Overran
Their Lands,
“Snakes as food for hogs beat chests
nuta, acorns or any of the faney food
stuffa,” says Mr, Henry Arbuthuot, in
the Washington Post, “Of course, you
know that in some parts of Kurope pigs
have killed out the vipers. [ was in
West Virginia some months ago and
found there a novel industry had been
undertaken by a nnmber of men whose
lands were overrun by the small va
riety of snakes that infest that section.
The snakes were 80 numerous as tobe a
nuisance. One farmer tried the hog as
an exterminator. He sucoeeded 5o well
that he found the drove of animals he
had turned loose on the plantation had
ot only decreased the number of
snakes, but that they were actually
thriving on them. He told his neigh
bors about it, and now the whole val
ley is one large hog pen, in which hun
dreds of the animals are feeding literal
ly on snakes. Formerly no one would
buy land there, notwithstanding the
beauty of the place, because of the
snakes, but now that the remedy bhas
been found, and at the same time big
money is made on the pigs that grow
fat on snake food, the land is destined
te be {n great demand, as it is the most
fersile land In West Virginia., This may
sound like a fairy snake tale, but I as
sure you that it is correct, and that hun
dreds of pigs are sold from that valley
every year that have literelly become
fatvon soakew”

BABIES IN PRISONS
The Inmocent Little Strangers Are
Tenderly Regarded by Wom
en Conviets,
Very tew people outside official cir
cles know what a large number of ba
bies are born every year in the infir
'marfes of prisons and penftentiaries,
the little people always causing quite &
flutter of attentiveness and excitement
among female warders and prisoners
‘alike, says a Philadelphia exchange.
The general body of the women pris
oners make the most pathetic efforts,
by means of all manner of trifling
scraps and odds and ends, 1o fabricate
articles of wear and ornament for the
out of place little stranger.
Quite three-fourths of the women vol
unteer to tend it, and it is often the
case that the most refractory and diffi
cult of the prisoners soften and greatly
alter by being allowed to do little things
for it; indeed, it acts throughout like a
veritable ray of sunshine among the
whole of the poor prisoners, who gen
erally manage to get themselves into
great good humor by suggesting as vol
ubly as the prison rules wili per
mit fantastic names for the child. Withs
in a certain period of their birth thend
childrenare taken away from themother
and are tended elsewhere with the ut
most care and humanity.
LONDON’S BATHS.
Paectlities for Ablution in the City
Are Many and Are BDeing
Incrensed.
It is no fault of the authorities of the
metropolis if any eonsiderable propor
tion of the people of London continue
to merit the deseription of “the great
unwashed.” Faciliites for ablution are
many, and these are yearly being in
creased. At present there are 35 par
fshes In Tondon where the bath and
washhouses act has been adopted, and
In most of these there are one or more
of these establishments in full working
order, rays the Newecastle Chronicle,
In 1898 the number of bathers and
washers reached the respectable total
of 5,000,000, and of these 4,462,100 were
bathers who used the private or swim
ming baths, and the remaining 627,881
women using the washhouses. The
number of hours pald for by the latter
were 2,064,093, or an avernge of 1.3
hours per washer. Of the bathers using
the private baths 18 per cent. were fe
males, and of those using the swim
ming baths ten per cent,
In no instance is any establishment
earried on so as to produce o surplus
over expenditure, though in n few cases
there is no nctual charge on the rates,
The total expenditure of the whaole i=
£158.671, and the total revenue £75.-
211, wso that the baths of London alto
gether cost the ratepayers an annual
sum of £83,260,
The Kalser's 111th House,
The emperor of Germany possesses
110 residences, and has just bought an
other house at Bonn, a pretty villa in
the Coblenz strasse, the property of a
professor in the university, The kaiser
has given 500,000 marks for his new ac
quisition, which is to be, after under
going complete renovation, the resi
denceof the crown prinee and his broth
ers during their studies at the Bonn
university,
Une for Tarantalas,
Tarantulas are being used in Aus
tralia for the sake of their webs, the
fillaments of which are made into thread
for balloons. They are lighter than
silk, and, when woven, lighter thav
canvas, Each tarantula yields from 20
to 40 yards of filament, of which eight
twisted together form a single thread.
The Wily Peanut,
Four million bushels of peanuts are
used annually In this country. In be
half of the peanut, remarks the Chicago
Tribune, it ean be said that no sue
cessful adulteration of it has ever yet
been sprung upon the public,
