T. Hill's undertaking establishment before the inquest. The trunk had been discovered by two boys digging for fish bait. They noticed a spade and shovel and were glad to procure them to help them in their search for bait. They also noted an end of a trunk partly covered up and, filled with curiosity, they proceeded to dig it up. They succeeded in breaking the lock and, naturally, looked in. Seeing nothing in the top tray, they removed it, and finding nothing but some postcards and two pictures, they removed the second tray and beheld the corpse, whereupon they fled. They found Policeman Johnson near thirty-fifth street and told their story. He returned with the boys to the scene of the trunk in the lot adjoining the Pullman Hotel. He called up the station and reported the murder. Permission to move the body was given by the coroner, and the inquest was held Monday morning at E. T. Hill's, undertaker, 3604 State street. The verdict was that the victim met her death by hemorrhage produced by a sharp instrument in the hands of one Edward Braggs. The funeral of Mrs. Braggs was held Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock from the chapel of E. T. Hill, undertaker, and interred at Mt. Glenwood. Mrs. Harvey, mother of the slain woman, and one sister from Kansas City, Mo., attended the funeral. Edward Braggs is still at large, but his capture is hourly expected. The mill which was on exhibition at the Coliseum was of particular value as a historical relic. It was brought to Chicago by Ex-Congressman Miller of South Carolina, and has been in the possession of some member of the family since 1631. At that time it was the custom to grind meal in the laborious method of crushing it between two revolving stones. The attendance at the jubilee surpassed the most optimistic expectations of the public. The door receipts were more than $12,000, and there were nearly 1,000 tickets issued to the choruses, besides the exhibitors' tickets and the employees' passes. LOUIS B. ANDERSON LEADS HOSTS TO SPRINGFIELD, ILL. Among those who went to Springfield, Ill., this week to attend the State Fair and the "big political meeting" at the state capital were Hon. Louis B. Anderson, Hon. E. H. Wright, Major R. R. Jackson and Hon. S. B. Turner. Mr. Anderson traveled in the private car of Senator George Harding. The young assistant corporation counsel was primarily to push the candidacy of Lowden for governor and William Hale Thompson, Republican national committeeman. The fight for Republican supremacy will be on after the Fair and the three men named will lead the fray In the Second ward. Major Jackson will return in time to leave for Louisville's Saturday For Louisville Hospital, Chicago, IL OL. X., NO. 39. Mamie Braggs, found horribly murdered in a trunk, was the daughter of Mrs. Amanda Harvey, 15212 Vine street, Harvey, Ill. She had two sisters in Kansas City, Mo., and one in Texas, and a son 12 years old who lived with her mother. Mrs. Braggs was living on the seventh floor of the Bates building, 3835 State street, at the time of her brutal murder by her husband, Edward Braggs. The appearance of her body showed a struggle had taken place. She evidently fought hard to save her life, as her thumb was cut to the bone and her hand cut in the palm. Two light cuts on the breast showed she had thrown her arms up, which prevented the knife going in deeply; also two cuts on the head, in the temple, and her head smashed on the side show that a blunt instrument was brought into play to end the struggle, it seems; and then her throat was cut, and the left carotid artery was cut in two. The story of the case as our reporter gets it is that the body may have been in the trunk since Thursday, as the roomer was unable to get in the house on that night because a key in the door prevented him from using his, and repeated knocks brought no response, so he rented a room on that night and returned again to his home Friday evening and was greeted by Edward Braggs as usual. He went to his room and on Saturday he and Braggs were in the house when Braggs called his attention to a crowd in the street and asked him to see what was the excitement. He told Braggs that he was not curious, and Braggs said "Well, I'll see. Wait here till I return." And that was the last seen of Braggs. Brown, an inhabitant of the vicinity GOV. WILLIS IS CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT Big Boom for Ohioan—Known as the Fighting Governor—Right on the Race Question. The Editor of the Chicago Defender was passing through the La Salle Hotel on Wednesday afternoon and, much to his surprise, he was grabbed by Governor Frank B. Willis of Ohio, the man who led the Republicans to victory in his state at the time when hope seemed slim for the grand old party. "Why, hello, 'Mr. Abbott,' said he to the Defender man. "Come right up stairs and let me have a word with you," said the governor, as they walked over to the elevator. "I want to say that the members of your race in Ohio are greatly pleased with the Defender. I have read it and will be proud if you will let the Republicans know that I am in the race for president of the United States." Colonel H. O. Herstand, adjutant general and union soldier, attracted the attention of many spectators. He is at the postoffice, this city. Governor Willis appointed Wilber King head of the "loan shark" department. He gave him the appointment and said he should accept, as it meant a whole lot to the race. DR. J. H.

NEW YORK CITY MUST HAVE AFRO-AMERICAN ALDERMAN John M. Royal Is Endorsed by the Republican, Progressive and Independent Clubs-Ilem to Take Courage From the City of Chicago. RACE IS UNITED. Royal Has Fine Record—Helped to Secure Playgrounds—Amsterdam News Advises Every Race Lover to Vote for "Our Candidate" September 28. (Special to the Chicago Defender.) New York City, Sept. 22.—Mr. John M. Royal is making the sight of his life to be elected alderman of the Thirty-first Aldermanic Ward, and thereby follow in the wake of the great sight made by members of the race in Chicago last spring. With this inspiration they expect to nominate him by a big majority and then elect him alderman. All the race leaders have agreed that it is now time to "drop all differences" and elect a man of the race to represent them. Primary is September 28, and the New York Age, the New York Amsterdam News and the New York News are all for a race man. A Strong Candidate. Mr. Royal is a strong candidate. He is endorsed by the Republicans, Progressives and Independent League tickets and if the members of the race will come out and vote for him on September 28 they will have their own candidate to represent them and other races, too. The Amsterdam News advises that if a voter is at work he should go to his polling place and cast a vote for John M. Royal. Has Fine Record Mr. Royal has a fine record. He was instrumental in securing for Harlem two playgrounds, two milk stations, helped to open public school No. 39 for the people of Harlem, secured members of the race to play in the city parks as musicians, helped close streets for children to play, had Harlem's streets cleaned, and has been identified with nearly every large civic movement in the interest of the race. The race throughout the country wants him elected. Why not those here? WABASH AVE.

(Special to the Chicago Defender.) Galveston, Texas, Sept. 24.—The disgraceful manner in which the United States officials treated the members of the race during the recent storm has brought forth such protests that the United States government is going to investigate the situation. After the storm on Monday night, August 16, there were a few members of the race who remained at home. Most of them went to the board of trade building at Texas City, Texas. After the water went down they could get nothing to eat, as the white people had cornered the market. This was done by army officials. Peonage Slave System Starts. On August 18 a regular peonage slave system started. Mounted men rounded up all the best of the race and took them to prison camp. Rev. E. C. Branch made strenuous objections to this, but over 200 were put to work. Hundreds were humiliated and mistreated. It was an insult to every members of the race in America. Matters were referred to the judges and the press, but no attention was paid to the pleas. Officials treated the matter with utter contempt. United States Government Has Matter. The United States government now has the matter in hand. Secret service men were on the scene and got a report for the department of justice. Dr. M. W. Logan, A. M., Ph.D. president of Wiley University, was insulted, as were also other members of the race. People Need Clothing. The people of Texas City, Texas, need clothing. They need help of every kind. A relief committee has been appointed, with Rev. H. C. Branch as chairman. Any good that anyone can do these distressed people, send to Rev. Branch, 2705 avenue G.

DID THE JANITOR N THIS LITTLE WOMEN Our attention has been called to one of the worst cases of rape that has ever been done in this country. Week before last Mr. and Mrs. Culbreath, 4923 Federal street, sent their 8-year-old daughter to the Coleman school. Today the child is a nervous wreck from the effects of the attack made upon her two days after she started. Thursday she was attacked. Her parents did not find it out until Saturday. Father Finds Crime Through Soiled Garments. Mrs. Culbreath went to Wilmette Saturday and her husband, the father of the little girl, was left home. He has been sick with heart disease and is unable to work. He was to wash out a few pieces that she left. In doing so he noticed that his little 8-year-old girl's undergarment was blood-stained. He was puzzled at first and thought that he would call her and question her, but on second thought waited till his wife came home. Then he told her and laid stress upon the fact that she must find the guilty party. Little Ethel was called. She was MAJOR R. R.

Miss Ethel Worthington was the winner of the Gold Bishop Trophy Medal at the Lincoln Jubilee Exposition. Her hand-painted China was a credit to the race, and all she had to say was: "My work is free hand drawing."

She said the janitor had threatened to throw her into the furnace if she ever told. Slowly she told everything. Thursday she had gone to the girls' toilet. The janitor had watched her and had snatched her off, threatening to kill her if she uttered a sound. He took her into the hall, laid her on the floor and attacked her. Girl Identifies Janitor. Naturally, the beast denied the crime. Then they brought him in front of the girl. He still denied it. The child was asked if he was the man. She claimed he was. He was led away and changed his clothes. Again he was brought back, the authorizes hoping she would not know him, but again she said yes, he was the man who did the dirt. She was examined by the juvenile court doctor and sent to one of their homes to be treated, but another doctor said she was all right and that nothing was the matter with her. Three days she remained at the juvenile home and her parents went and got her. They did not want to (Continued on page 4.) Bloody Scene Enacted in Front of Forest Theatre; Proprietor, It Is Said, Said Blacks Were Only Bluffing and Would Run Like the Niggers Do at a Lynching—Women Lead the Onslaught By Hurling Stones in Theatre; Men Had to Fight When They Saw Police Kick Race Woman in Stomach. Every Race Man or Woman Seen on the Street Anywhere Was Set Upon by Irish Police, and Hoodlums Start Second Battle, But Were Forced to Retire Under Cover of Reserve Police Force 200 Known Hurt Were Taken Off the Streets Mayor Closes House; Race Satisfied. Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 24—Similar scenes to those of Boston, Mass., when William Monroe Trotter and the liberty-loving people of the Quaker City objected to the showing of "The Birth of a Nation" and a riot took place there, were enacted here Sunday night, only a thousand times worse. After pleas of all kinds failed to stop the play; after petitions were made to the mayor and chief of police and the governor of the state failed, the proprietors of the theater took matters in their own hands and allowed the play to be shown. It was billed at the Forest Avenue Theater. When the doors were opened thousands of people crowded at the theater to see if the race really meant to show its backbone and resent the disgraceful play. Wild Scenes Enacted. Five thousand members of the race, old and young, went to the theater and demanded that the play be stopped. Policemen were called and a riot call was sent to the nearest station. There was a general melee. Policemen beat women of the race, and men of the race took part in the fight, and never before in the history of this city was there such a riot. Broad street for squares presented scenes similar to those of the early revolution, and men fought with sticks, clubs and revolvers. Every young man of the race showed his true manhood by protecting the women. The charge of the police followed the throwing of bricks in the theater. White men who were sympathizers of the race took a part in the battle. Policemen were knocked to the ground, stamped, and sent to the hospital and nearby drugstores. The fight did not last long, but the race got the best of the battle. Second Disturbance Follows. When members of the race saw how the policemen had beaten up their women their blood bloomed, and another riot took place at Walnut and Broad streets. A man threw a brick and struck a policeman on the head, and he huddled over for dead. Other policemen were seriously hurt. There was no such thing as feeling, each man of the race standing to his guns like their fathers in the civil war. They felt it was a matter of race loyalty; that they would no longer hear to see their race humiliated by Griffin and his likl for money; that race prejudice would not be augmented by such a play as "The Birth of a Nation." Front of Theater Demolished The front of the Forest Theater was completely demolished. Hundreds of dollars of damage was done. The half is not over, as members of the race have determined that if the play continues to be seen here they will do the same thing over again. Many Sympathizers. The race had many sympathizers. Hundreds of white friends who had tried in vain to interest the mayor and chief of police to stop the play were loyal sympathizers. Many encouraged the race to show its manhood in resenting such an ignominious performance as "The Birth of a Nation." Philadelphia Disgraced. The city of Philadelphia, known as the "City of Brotherly Love," has disgraced itself and now belongs in the category of southern cities by allowing such a play to bring such disgraceful scenes as were enacted a few nights ago. Efforts are now being made by the best people of both races to see that the play is immediately stopped and that no such plays as "The Birth of a Nation" are shown here. From the bravery and herosom exhibited by Philadelphia men and women and the broken bones, cut faces and gashes given the officers of the law, there is no likelihood of the play or any of its kind having any success here. Officials Now Regret. The governor of the state, the mayor of the city and the chief of police are now regretting they did not hear the pleadings of those of the race who urged that the horrible libelous photoplay was an insult to every Afro-American. Play Now Off the Boards. Since the race will not stand for the play the officials have now ordered it off the boards. The melee was a lesson to the Afro-Americans of Chicago who have allowed the play to be shown with no protest whatever. The play began at the Illinois Theater early in the summer and ran successfully for three months, and is now showing at the Colonial Theater. Philadelphia has taught the Chicago race leaders a lesson. The battle cry of the Afro-American is Philadelphia, not Chicago. Philadelphia, the most peace-loving city in the nation, becomes a scene of lawlessness. The attempt to show the fate of the African-American at the Forrest Theater has the occasion for the assembling of thousands of orderly and peace-loving Afro-Americans, who protested in lawful manner in the subsequent aroused indignation found in the public and made every effort in manners to protect themselves against the pernicious influence of the display. The crowd assembled, with the attempt of its initial success, consequently aroused indignation found in the public and made every effort in manners to protect themselves against the pernicious influence of the display. The crowd assembled, with the attempt of its initial success, consequently aroused indignation found in the public and made every effort in manners to protect themselves against the pernicious influence of the display. It is the legal duty of those who are intrusted with the responsibility to exercise their power not only in manners but to prevent its occurrence. This smearable neglect to protect the rights of Afro-Americans is manifested, everywhere. If COL. J. R. MARSHALL TAKES UP DUTIES AS CAMP SOLDIER Among the 500 Citizens Who Are at Fort Sheridan Training Camp, Ill.—One of the Best Informed Men on the Field. (By a Special Correspondent.) Ford Sheridan Training Camp, Ill., Sept. 24.—When Colonel William R. Nicholson looked over 435 men, all sizes, ages and complexions, from every conceivable walk in life, he saw Colonel John R. Marshall, formerly colonel of the Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard. He was among the first to register, and the daily papers tried to bring in the "race question," but "Uncle Sam" knew this was no time to play with fire. The stamp of disapproval was put upon this, and the next day afterward all was well, and now Colonel Marsil is one of the most respected men camp and among the best known. He is seen daily hobnobbing with Congressman Martin B. Madden, who made the speech of welcome to the busy men who have taken up camp life and are being taught "preparedness is next to godliness." Colonel Marshall has taken up his duties as a soldier with a vim and will remain the entire time of camp life. MUSKOGEE'S PUBLIC LIBRARY TO BE ENLARGED. (BY Miss Della Blanton.) Muskogee, Oka., Sept. 24—One of the most important movements lately started by Miss Muskogee is the public Carnegie Library. This benefit not only the school child but also the older people. This movement is the working works of many far sighted people who are an institution. It marks an educational advancement of the race in so much as they do, realize the necessity and value of an institution. This institution, while it is expensive, as some people may say, will doubly repay the expenditure. It will be a small concern, independent of all private concern of people. Its location now is not the best site, but it is to be hoped that the small demand of the city as well Carnegie, will be granted modulations rendered than are obt at present. It may be well all services as also in demand as of time now. It may make any proposition or invest success. Many libraries have all organized this movement and it may make a number of books to be present stock that are the libraries of New York and Bloomington III. ... route in Chicago, cOcabo Church dining during Chauqua (By Earl Reynolds.)

Her舅父, charming in a cool white gown, was pouring tea for Captain Garth. The captain's straw hat was the grouse and the sunshine back on the silver streaks in his dark hair. Except for the silver hair, one might have taken George Garth to be a very handsome man, so lilith was his form, so light his step, so youthful. Rose knew him to be just twice her own age—that was forty. And Aunt Angela was almost forty, and she was so lovely that Rose felt of jealousy as she watched them. Garth was leaning forward in the wicker chair, his eyes fixed on Angela's fair face. He was talking. Rose often wondered what topic he was looking at and so interesting. They always grew and proached and they changed the subject to tennis and motoring and the newest books. "I wonder they don't talk to me about dolls," thought Rose rebelled. She went out to the table and, as she expected, Aunt Angela changed into a dress for incoming society clubs at the Council. Presently the -der woman excused herself and went into the house. "She rose the roses," suggested Captain Gaita. "He is bored with me," thought Rose, but she swallowed her pique and led the way to the rose garden. when they reached the shade of the pergola the captain turned his handsome blue eyes down upon his companion, would like ocear from the garden," he said in an odd tone, "One rose!" repeated the girl, "I may have a dozen, if you wish!" She reached for a cluster of pink rambles. But his strong brown hand caught hers and held it close to his heart, "You are the rose I want," he said gently, "I" she faltered, only half understanding, "I" she is it so incredible that I should love you!" he smiled down at her. What evil spirit whispered to Rose that perhaps Aunt Angela had reconnected Garth and he was offering her love, "Surely, he had not made love. Surely, he had not made love. Rose according to youth's romantic dreams. His proposal was so sudden and unexpected, that throbbing heart Rose pushed him away from her and cried: 'Oh, I'm afraid you've made a mistake!' She ran away to her own room and feared her fushed reflection in the glass. "He has made a mistake," she told herself, "It is Aunt Angela he loves—he is only flirting with me, I hate him." Poor Rose, who could not recognize love when it came knocking at her heart! There were many months when Captain Garth did not appear at Pine Grove. His ship was ordered to Asatle waters, and Rose noticed that Aunt Angela frequently received foreign-looking letters. Rose assured herself, but her unruly heart ached for the love she denied it. Angela studied the letters closely. Sometimes she smiled over them, and she hurriedly left the room in tears. June came around again, and Angela took to watching the gates. "She expects him," thought Rose, who knew that he had been ordered home. One night when the rose garden was fragrant with the incense from a thousand blossoms, the dew was falling and the cool midnight flooded the open spaces, Rose stepped into the At the remote end a man, tall and straight, was standing, and in his arms was Aunt Angela. "He has come!" thought Roso. She turned and ran toward the house. Her eyes were blinded by tears and she could scarcely see the way, so that she ran right into the George Garth, who was coming across. "Oh!!" she cried sharply, "you! I just saw you there—in the pergola with Aunt Angela." "Oh, not!" he chuckled. "You saw my brother Charlie; He and Angela had been in the room. There was a misunderstanding and Charlie lost himself in the Orient; been exploring Tibet, I believe. I promised Angela I'd try to locate him this time—and I did—brought him home, in fact. He had suffered as a result of the attack on them." Rose was still in his arms. "It is a long time to keep you waiting for one rose," she whispered. "Not when it's the rose of my heart," he declared gallantly.

City Has Many Beauties, and its Cities Are Refined and Gentle—Scenes in the Market Held in the Great Square. It is not true that cities, like houses, reflect the characters of their inhabitants? Somebody said that Berlin has the air of a rich, wolfed woman who loves her children and has everything that money can buy but never the unpurchasable quality of charm. Now, Gracau is her opposite; she is like a lady of ancient complaining of her great sorrows; she is fascinating, distinguished, simple. Gracau, small as it is, is the heart of Poland, and in Poland's days of freedom, she is fascinating, distinguished. But the object of this little article is not to relate the tragic history of Poland, but just to give a brief sketch of the simple life in beautiful Gracau, before the fall of the town is the great square where stands the splendid church of Our Lady. There is a covered market, where the stalls more modest than the open ones of the masons from the country with their milk and cheese, vegetables and poultry. The peasant woman wear gay-colored clothes and carry huge burds on their backs—the masons with their milk and cheese in great leaves nearly two yards long. In their high clumsy boots they trump sturdy along, quite able and willing to carry the burds well as to hear a woman's burdens. A lady who visited Cracow shortly before the outbreak of the war was greatly impressed by the burdens born by people of a little higher rank than the men and women, mostly geese—white, long-necked, squawking geese. Every other man, woman and child seemed to be carrying a goose. Sometimes they were carried under the arm of the man, and children sometimes in a carpet bag with long neck protruding and the bright eyes eagerly searching the passers-by as though enjoying the novel ride. Someone else might be carrying three geese and sometimes they were stung unceremoniously over the shoulder of the owner, their legs tied together and their necks craned up to the knees. Now and then a stout lady would pass with a goose in the ample bosom of her dress or coat, only the head of the fowl showing under her chin. The geese were generally treated with a spoonful of golden butter and leaves of cheese folded together in a way that you novee if outside Poland. In another part of the great square in the vegetable markets in Warsaw, flowers and Brussels sprouts; salads, onions, and dried mushrooms on long strings worn like a necklace over the neck of the vendors. In the center of the stage died in Cracow the center of the stage belongs to the goose. A few abashed hens were offered for sale or a lonesome turkey, but they seemed to feel they had no right there, and were ready to leave. In the center of the square sat the public weigher with his scales. If an old lady felt that she had been given short weight for half a pound of meat, she would weigh, and he even took a hand in the disputes about the size and quality of the gzee. The people that you see in the streets of Cracow are beautiful to look at. They know how to wear worn clothes with a kind of natural elegance. Then their faces are expressive, clean cut and fine; they know how to walk and how to stand; they are not rude, but great. They are the destiny of their clear chest, of their poise. Poles we do not yet know—Exchange. Center of Population For more than a century a careful calculation has been made every ten years to fix the exact center of population. When the census was taken in 1790 the center of population was to be near an Amphitheater, Maillard, well known. Later the center moved later the center had moved to a point just above the city of Washington. Throughout the history of the country the population center has moved steadily westward at the rate of about 100 miles every ten years. The center of population of our 100,000,000 population is now on the boundary. In another decade it will probably cross the Mississippi river. Christian Herald. Citizen'a Duty. Kant's categorical imperative may be expanded into these homely terms of duty: No one may do that which, if done by all, would destroy society. In other words, the individual must see that when the gaining of his own poor little happiness involves an injury to his own self, he must cut the happiness off and cast it from him than to do his part to bring the body politic to hell fire. Health Note. Health is capital for us all, and especially for the woman who works. However much talent and initiative you have, you will be handicapped in your work unless you have your share of good health. If you have not health it is your business to expend every minute of your surplus time acquiring it. Potted Plants When potting plants, put a piece of soil between the roots of the plant before putting in the bits of stone and, sod, keeps the drainage good. The mud prevents the earth from freezing. Walked Three Miles In Sleep Although never rated as a chronic sleepwalker, Mrs. W. A. Johnson, wife of a farmer, was taken in Salmine, Kansas, four o'clock in the morning, a dressed herself and walked three miles to a hospital in Salmine, where she was treated. She steps and was later found by nurses. "Ive noticed that particularly when he's afoot." ```markdown ``` Country Has Seen Little Change While the Rest of the World Has Been Advancing. In Journeying to Assouan from Thebes the traveler cannot fail to be impressed by the two beautiful temples of Edufu and Kom Ombo. The former, situated almost midway in the valley, is the most important cause it is the best preserved of all the Egyptian temples. It was a center of the cult of Osiris, whose death and rising again was celebrated every spring within its close. The festival of Osiris marched around the walls defending the death of their god in the contest with the evil one. In the sanctuary lay the mummy, personified by a priest, while a priestess who represented lion went over her dead body. In the last the resurrection morning came, the mummy arose, and joy reigned among the worshippers. Again processes formed upon the walls, and marching with banners and musical instruments rised lion to those, woe glad about. A few miles away is Kom Ombo, the beautiful temple of Sebek, the crocodile god, whose devotees hated the temple. But the later times the followers of the prophet hated the Coptic monks whom they found before them in this very valley. Like Edfu, it dates from the days at the temple of Aphrodite, on ancient sites on ancient sites. The rulers of that time were Helfenlists, but their architecture was that of ancient Egypt, so firmly rooted in the land of the Nile. The Greeks, the Ancient Greek and Roman came and carved their names upon the temples, but left no mark upon the unchanging spirit of Egypt. Not even today is the temple of Aphrodite, the ancient houses in the villages are built as old, and over them rise the pigeon towers, veritable pylons, exactly like the towered gateway to the ancient city of Nile, by William Warfield in Travel. Coal From the Arctic A few years ago, the idea of getting coal from Splitberg, one of the most desatele islands of the Arctic ocean, was a topic for romantics of the Sunday supplement type. Now it is a fact of considerable moment in many of the books about Splitberg, financed chiefly by American capital, mined nearly 40,000 tons of coal from Splitberg last year. The deposit of fuel in the far North is said to be singularly easy to work. It comes in the form of a stretching along the coast for 30 miles. The surrounding rock is so solid that timbering is not needed. The temperature is always below the freezing point in the present workings, which does away with the need of pumps. The rock is also getting men—and motion pictures have gone far to solve that problem. Yet for every ton of coal in Splitberg there are ten in Alaska of at least equal quality, closer to a hungry man than a deserted dog. The real dent in the fuel market till big northwest territory gets in action. Stop Slavery in Papua. Our attention is called by the Anti-Slavery and Aborigines Protection Society to the fact that following the publication of an article by our Melbourne correspondent in the Daily Chronicle which declared that slavery was not a crime in New Guinea, an investigation was made by the Australian government and severe action has now been taken to bring an end to the conditions we described. Among the allegations made were that the police threatened men with the destruction of their villages if they refused to sign on for a term of years; that many "boys" in one division were actually handcuffed for declining to come away at the blinding of certain professional recruiters, and that all of the able-bodied males of one division were captured—London Chronicle. Largest Steamship Carrier On its last trip to the Pacific coast from Oriental ports, the Great Northern's steamship Minnesota carried what its owners say was the largest cargo ever shipped on one bottom in the ocean. The cargo is estimated at nearly 30,000 tons. Included are 37,500 bales of hemp from Manila bound for Chicago, and 2,720 bags of peanuts for the Pacific coast. From Kobe canna 37,500 bales of manchurian maize and 6-8 percent of the Great Northern road, principally Chicago, New York, Montreal and Toronto. There were 43,430 bags of manchurian maize and 6-8 percent of the Great Northern road, principally Chicago, New York, Montreal and Toronto. From Yokohama was shipped treasure amounting to 1,500,000 yen in gold coin—Wall Street Journal. Notes From Commerce Reports. A German patent has been granted to the manufacturer of a lubricant from beet sugar molasses. American interests are about to erect factories in China for the manufacture of dried and desiccated eggs. The manufacturer has built a burglaryproof safe, constructed of steel, which required one and one-half hours with an oxacetylene flame to produce a hole two inches in diameter in a plate one and one-half inches thick. The burglaryproof safe produced in 1914 more than 275,000,000 harris of oil, which was refined there. The coffee production in 1914 was 893,000 tons, a decrease of 92,200 tons from 1913. Eagle River Gold The first gold mining in Alaska was in the belt near Juneau; about thirty-five years ago. Since that date more than $50,000,000 worth of gold has been mined in the region, bearing belt was known to stretch 50 miles northward, including the Eagle river region. There are many gold-bearing lodes in the region of this river now under development and others still awaiting development Hopeless Case Merchant—Did you call on Owens today? Collector—Yes, sir. Merchant—Did he pay anything on occasion? Collector—No, sir. I couldn't even get him to pay any attention to me. Drank the Soldiers' Tea. British soldiers, wanting flavor for their tea, milked a stray goat by the roadside. Then, while they were lookin' at the milk, the milkman drank an the tea. REALLY THERE WAS VERY LIT TLE MORE TO SA. Cupid Simply Had Repeated and Daughter Preferred to Do as Mother Did Instead of as She Was Being Advised. "Listen to me, Abigail," said Mrs. Wise to her daughter. "Remember, please do not order than you. Wisdom comes only with age." "Yes, mamma." "Why are you so cold to Mr. Willing—so distant?" "Am I?" "He says so. He has my indorsement as sulter." "Yes, he promised." "What answer did you make?" "I declined. But he said he wouldn't take that as final." He will persist—with my consent, child. Why did you refuse to go motoring with him? He is disaffected over your manner, which I fear isn't nice. Has he done any wrong? "He wanted to kiss me." "They may think they're in love sometimes, child, but life these days dissipates romance. Look at the difference." "But I'm talking about a man I don't care a box of candy about. When you were of my age, you no doubt thought you were going now, even when you told me you closed with papa to escape marrying an old man. You were in love." "You aren't in love. And the situation is different." "Yes. The situation is different. But I am in love." "In love! With whom?" "With Charley Lyman." "With no money, no position, no..." "但 haven't we money enough?" "Fudge! What foolishness! And I lee you to go to the tennis court with me." "We didn't go to the tennis court." "Where did you go, then?" "We—we—got married."—Judge. Bird Cages the Newport Fad. The appearance at Newport of your wedding is getting to be a daily occurrence. The desire to do something "different" has perhaps as much as anything else to do with the promotion of the latest fad, but whatever the basis may be the public her favorite song bird is getting to be almost a daily routine. So, if you happen to see a tastefully gowned young woman strolling along with a bird cage dangling from the fingers of her right hand—which don't go away with the idea that the family is moving and they won't trust the singer to the man on the van, or that she contemplates a long journey and has no one at home to feed the pet. No, it's only Newport's latest Highest Point In Kansas The highest point in the state of Kansas thus far determined by the United States geological survey is in the Syracuse quadrangle, 8,522 feet above mean sea level. A still higher point, however, established by the United States Coast and Geodetic术局, lies in this line. This point in the Chayenne wells quadrangle is 8,376 feet above mean sea level. Concrete. Concrete is made of a mixture of pebbles, stones and sand or other suitable material, to which is mixed a hardening agent. Owing to the gradual setting and hardening of this line or cement, the mass changes from a semifluid to a hard, compact substance, as hard, as, or more than building stone produced by nature.

Prince Victor Jerome Frederic Napoleon, who has obtained permission of the Italian military authorities to take over the Napoleon family. Ordinarily he lives in Brussels, having been expelled from France many years ago. He is the son of the late Emmanuel, with his sympathies with the allies are further cemented by the fact that his wife is Princess Clementine, daughter of Napoleon's mother, is a princess of the house of Savoy. It needed but the entry of a Napoleon to make the cast complete. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER WITH THE WOLVERINE WITH THE WOLVERINE (By Walter Thompson.) Grand Rapids, Mich. 24.-March. 24. T. P.

NANCY HENDERSON ENTERTAINS Cossack "Adventurers." The word "Cossack," itself, is a derivative from the Turkish prototype of "adventurer," which is a typical word for the description of these roving horseholders. The Cossack populace in Russia amounts to roughly 2,500,000, and they collectively own some 140,000,000 acres of Russian territory. To Have Smaller Feet. The sex will rejoice to hear that an English scientist declares that women's feet are growing smaller. He claims that a study of former types of feet can go to prove that the feet of modern people are more shaped than the those of their predecessors, save races. Perhaps, after all, the mistakes of ill-fitting shoes have not seriously deformed the general type of foot. Use Otters to Catch Fish.

On a Chilly Fall Day Some folks tune up the Big Furnace — then shiver and wait for an hour or more, while the said furnace eats two dollars' worth of coal and generates ten times the amount of heat required. Other folks — wise and thrifty — let the furnace sleep and rely on Little Gas Heaters until real winter comes along. A twist of the wrist turns a gas-heater fire on or off — takes but a few minutes to make the dampest room warm and cosy at a fuel cost of pennies instead of dollars. Little Gas Heaters Are Ideal For Fall Heating Requirements The newest models, from $4.50 to $15.00—monthly payments if you like—at any of our branch stores or our big salesroom downtown. FORMER COTTON PICKERS MAY RECEIVE PENSION Attorney Jones Files Suit for Fabulous Sums for Men of the Race Who Picked Cotton in Southern Fields Between 1859 and 1868. $68,000,000 DUE RACE. Men Living or Their Heira Are Urged to Write Lawyers Jones and Hewlett at the Nation's Capital—Proprietor is Hoped to Be of Good Faith. (By B. W. Thompson.) Washington, D. C. Sept. 24—Sillified lawyers, in their vicinity are examining with considerable care the proposition advanced by a coterie of legal lights from the South and elsewhere to compensate while producing the cotton that was marketed between 1859 and 1868 in the southern states are entitled to a share of the $6,072,308.99 and can secure their share by a judgment from the supreme court of the District of Columbia against the secretary of the treasury. The latter is to be custodian of the money. In pursuance of this idea Attorney Cornelius J. Jones of Memphis, Tenn., in association with Attorney N. M. Cohen, of Memphis, others, filed a suit in the supreme court of the district July 13, 1915, and is preparing to present the claims of former slaves or their heirs for a claim derived from the cotton alleged to have been produced by their unrequited labor. A lien is sought to be established on the money, said to be derived from the treasury. If the actual liens are dead the promoters of the movement ask that the heirs and descendants of such persons send the money to the court in a claim for a part of the money involved. The lawyers now looking into the case are at a loss to understand how such a fabulous sum of money as $8,000,000 can be gotten out of the court's proceedings, theceedings that have been instituted in the courts of the district. One authority is of the opinion that the only redress to be had, if any can be had, would be through the passage of a special bill by congress directing the courts to take action against the claims, under the law so enacted, of such persons who may prove themselves entitled to the benefits alleged to be due them or their forebears, before the United States of America is in accordance with the system in vogue, and no money can be paid out of the treasury until all of the demands demanded by the government are fulfilled. The ground taken by able lawyers, and if they are in error it is up to Attorneys Jones, Hewlett and others to make their side of the matter clearer to the popular mind. Before thousands of people are forced to pay a fund for the prosecution of claims for money alleged to be due them they should be satisfied that the procedure under which the suit is instituted is the proper one and that they should be satisfied that to avoid all possibility of a scandal and to set at rest all invidious gossip, as well as to be absolutely just to the secretary of the treasury, to the statements involved, and to them the movement should make sure of their ground and take the public fully into their confidence at every step in the litigation now pending. The national mind in its present situation must be willing to take anything for granted. WEDDING ANNOUNCEMENT. Mr. and Mrs. L. H.

LENGTH OF LIFE INCREASED Not Yours or Mine, but those of the Coming Generation of United States Citizens. Dr. Victor C. Vaughan's assurance that the average length of life in the United States has been increased ten years since 1880 makes clearing information. Coming from a man who has been president of the American Medical association, the information is not misunderstood. Doctor Vaughan does not mean that ten years have been added to the ordinary man's life. On the contrary, there are plenty of men who are much shorter than lengthened from the station fifty years and onward. The so-called diseases of maturity have been making sad havoc among our elderly man of late, and nothing has been done to shorten them. The gain of ten years to which Doctor Vaughan refers has been effected by saving the lives of children who would formerly have perished of preventable diseases. Each child this year has the rescue of his life, though mature persons go dying prematurely, just as they do. Statistics are sometimes very delusive. The rapid extinction of our elderly doubles in the rescue of our children from untimely death is filling the country with a comparatively youthful population. The phalanx in the neighborhood of forty years is increasing rapidly. That between fifty and sixty years the proportion to the whole number. This it should be. The mature man has outlived the competitive struggle for success and has leisure to serve the public is perhaps the most valuable life—Portland Morning, Oregon.

It was the deciding game of the series, and the Giants were the superior spice. The game was hard fought all the way. Muskusman was on the mount for the All Nations and pitched a grand slam.

The Wedding Route It is reported that the "latest thing" in wedding invitations is an engraved map showing the way to the church and to the house. Grinding perplexity is the mother of innovations. It is not so stated, but unquestionably this helpful scheme originated in Boston, where wedding guests have been known to lose themselves and wander around for hours through the tangle of streets, not reaching the scene of the festival, the rice and old shoes had been thrown everywhere else was on the way homes—Providence Journal. Growth of Judgment Nobody's judgment is good without development. One who forms the habit of accepting the opinions of others, who allows his path to be marked out for him by interested friends, cannot expect that his judgment will be anything but feeble, like an unused muscle by which thinking does one learn to think. Only by being master the power of wise decision. Judgment must have regular exercise to become worthy of dependence. Don't Blame the Machines. Perhaps one reason for motor speed that automobiles feel their gasus as a horse does its oats. TEN INNING GAME TO THE LINCOLN STARS. Lincoln Stars R. H. O. A.

BULGARS ONLY PARTLY SLAV Have Few of the Characteristics of That Race—Are Intensely Practical and Hard-Headed. "The Bulgarians are nominally classed as Slavs. So they are—partly," says a writer in the Century. "Yet the world too often forgets that the primal Bulgarians were not Slavs at all, but the Turanian stock who in the seventh century burst upon the primitive Slavs recently migrated south of the Danube, and settled down as masters. Less numerous than their subjects, the conquerors were soon absorbed, losing their speech and peculiar identity. Nevertheless, the blood was a potent one, for the Turanian Bulgars left behind far more than their names; they demanded that the new army which set it distinct apart in the category of Slav peoples. A moment's analysis will clearly prove this. "Your typical Slav, whether he dwell on the Russian plains or the Serbian hills, is an idealist, prone to lose sight of hard facts in dayreams. Capable of great accomplishments, when under the stimulus of his enthusiasts, in ordinary times the Slav is an easy-going, imprudent, open-handed person, essentially likable, but lacking that practical characteristic, efficiency. How different the Bulgarian: Restrained, sober, dour, with occasional outbursts of passion, but usually taking even his pleasures sadly; intimately practical and hard-headed; intimately practical and hard-headed; to the point of avarice; so solicitous about the future that this frequently becomes an obsession; above all, possessed of a dogged, plodding, almost ferocious energy translating itself normally into unremitting labor—such as the folk. "The Bulgar on his ox-cart," says the national proverb, "pursues the hare, and overtakes it." Harbors on the Adrlatic The principal guilds of the Adriatica are those of Manfredonia on the west, Venice and Trieste on the north, and Quarreno on the northeast. There are numerous and admirable bay harbors extending from Flume and culminating in the wonderful landlocked harbor, the Bocche di Cattaro. The Strait of Ortuno, where Italy approaches nearest to the Balkan mainland, is 45 miles wide. Here is the magnificent Albantan harbor, Avlona.

LEO JOHNSON KNOCKS OUT ROUX IN FOURTH ROUND Evens Up Matters for the Bum Decision at Memphis a Few Weeks Ago—Still Challenges Any One at His Weight. St. Louis, Mo, Sept. 24—Leo Johnson knuckled out Young Roux of Memphis in the fourth round of their scheduled ten- nants. Johnson evened up matters for the way he handled the game, a few weeks ago when Johnson got a raw decision. He startled out after his man and made there would be no question as to the outcome. In the fourth a terrific left hook to the jaw put the Memphis had to sleep. Although Johnson still had the four rounds the Roux boy fought hard and Johnson extended himself in the last round.

MR. AND MRS. SIMMONS RETURN TO HUMBOLDT Sunday School Children Have a Delightful Basket Fill with Many Mothers LETTS A PECULIAR PEOPLE Branch of the Lithuanian Nation That Has Not Succeeded into Life of Russia Among the interesting, still persistently individual peoples of Russia are noted the Letts, a branch of the Lithuanian nation, a Slavonic division whose past in the marshy swamps of Lithuania lies as deeply hidden as the mystic realm of the Druids. Lithuania was once a great kingdom. The Lett tacult, morse, little given to welcoming the stranger. He dwells apart, not in the village, but in villages whose houses closely overlap another. The Lett preserves his own tongue, traditions and dreams, and remains in this twentieth century more than half a worshiper of nature and a believer in omens and black craft. The old gods whom he cherished and reverenced the longest, whom he sought long after Europe all around him had accepted the teachings of him, still exert an influence upon him, still superintend in a thousand superintendents, even though he is as devout as any of the other present-day Christians. Modern Greek. In ancient times, before the conquest of Alexander the Great, there were many differences in the dialects spoken in different parts of Greece. About 330 B. C. a common dialect, sometimes called Hellenistic Greek, arose. This is the Greek of the New Testament. By 800 A. D. the differences between the spoken and written language had become so great that the literary language was supplanted by the spoken. From this time the language has been further changed in grammar, collection, and by the introduction of loan words from other languages, notably from the Italian and Turkish. Since the Greek kingdom was established in 1830 there has been a movement toward the ancient idiom. This has resulted again in a gap between spoken and written Greek. The new movement has made such progress, however, that it is not too much to say that a modern newspaper would be new intelligible to Plato. Gentleness and cheerfulness, these come before all morality—the they are the perfect dutes. If your morals make you dreary, depend upon it they are wrong. I do not say "give them up," for they may be all you have; but con' dudes like a violet but they should spoil the lives of better men—Robert Louis's Stevenon. How about that money you have out?

TREADING - THE BEATEN PATH Mistake Made by Many is to Think They Hate Things Along the Routes. Most of us grow weary at times of what we call the beaten path. We have trod it so often that we imagine we know its milieps by heart and believe that with eyes and ears closed to what is going on about us we could tell in a moment our wheateubs. This may be true to a degree, but such intuition is not given to everyone, and sometimes even to those who really think they have explored all the byways of the great path of life many things are yet undiscovered. It all requires our own ability to appreciate of our own ability to advantage such conditions as influence our individual lives. Of course, if we have no desire beyond attaining a purely worldly success we limit our possibilities of enjoying life to its highest degree, because material success is not everything in this world. It is very good, to be sure, and very satisfying in a way, but even those who can bear personal testimony to its many advantages are the first to admit that wealth and high worldly position do not comprise the sum total of happiness. We must have an inner life a consciousness of the existence of the world and high high can the world affords, before we can really deem ourselves wholly blessed. And that realization is often easier obtained by the man who has little or nothing of the world's blessings than by his more fortunate brothers who bask in its smiles. Dwindling Helgoland Helgoland, in the North sea, the formidable German stronghold, is gradually yielding to nature's forces. This famous island, held by England from 1807 to 1890, is 45 miles northwest of the mouth of the Elbe and Weser, and though only a rock rising 175 feet above the sea, and less than a third of a mile in area, has acquired great importance as a German naval base. Attention that a map in the possession of the British Geological society shows that its circumference in the year 500 was 120 miles. In 1300 the distance around it was 45 miles, and as early as 1649 it had been reduced in area to four square miles. Erosion by the sea has been the cause of the gradual effacement. The wearing away has been chiefly from the northeastern side, and the extent of the damage or more-this having been due mainly to the set of the currents; but also to the greater hardness of the rock still left. Lite's Obligations Lift is not thoughts and emotion. Life is what we do; it is our conduct, with its consequences upon ourselves tomorrow or next year, and upon others immediately or next year or in the next generation—Anne Winsor Allen. Optimistic Thought. No victory is obtained without suffering. THE HIGH-BROWN We have opened "The High-Brown" display room No. 5, at 3519 State Street, for the purpose of showing you the ORIGINAL as there are many imitations on the market sold under such names as "Brown Face Powder," "Brown Skin," and similar names. HIGH-BROWN FACE POWDER was originated by us—we have the name copyrighted in the United States Patent Office, and it is the first and only face powder ever made especially for colored people. Only first class articles are imitated—the very fact that so many imitate our articles is proof in itself that ours is of a superior quality. When you buy a face powder for a "High-Brown" that has not the name Overton-Hygienic on it, you have been imposed upon; for you have bought an imitation, which is inferior to our original "High-Brown." See that our name is on every box you buy. Also Manufacturers of Ro-Zol Face Bleach, Aida Overton Walker Hair Pomade and Other Toilet Articles. D OF S A. YOUNG AMERICAN GIANTS WIN NO HIT NO RUN CONTEST Whitworth Enters Hall of Fame At Expense of Chicago Giants —Only Three Chicago Men Reach First Base. SECOND UNINTERESTING Glants Play Sand Lot Ball With St. Louis Team=Play, West Baden Sprudels Sunday=Good Crowd Out. They have come into their own. The Glants even up the bitter pill that the Chicago Glants handed them last Sunday. Whitworth was in the pink of form when he played for the fane when he let the Chicago Glants down without a hit or a run. Only three men reached first base, two by the jack of Jackson's grounder in the fifth made things look dangerous. Whitworth then passed Green and Clarkson by putting him on second and third, but the wail, they got no further. The Glants had Blox in the hole several times before it played on the Fosteries the game in the third inning. McNair's two great catches and one by Gans helped feature the game. The Fosteries jumped on interesting. The local club got the jump in the first. Frands had down a perfect bunt and McAdoe thought it was a great shot and they seemed to innervate the whole bunch. The game was called in the seventh with the score 8 to 0 against the visitors. Much comment is being made over the game, and the fans are son as to the starting hour of the game, whether it shall be three or the present time. We suggest three for there are many of the fans who have leave for leave after the game, and at three the game is over before this time and to the others it gives them a chance to get home to their dinner and get back down on the gay white way. Baden Spruedles are here next Sunday. First Game. American Giants— R. H. P. A.

ENTIRELY A STATE OF MIND Go Just Feel Sure You Have the Secret of Longer and the Years Contenarians all know why they have been blessed with long years. It is because they never drank, or because they did drink; because they never smoked, swore, quarreled, worried, sat, late of nights, or because they did all these things, yet countered evil acts with diets of milk, bread, cornbread or an apple and doctors may wonder why the time has proved incapable. But the subjects of their wonder have never any doubts. They know exactly why they and death keep apart. An intimate study of the character of centenarians might reveal the true formula for long life. These tenacious old folk all have one thing in common, and that is perfect confidence. They are never troubled with misgivings, never afflicted with self-questioning. If a person is absolutely certain that he is going to deflect perhaps that is as effectual as it is with the man who is absolutely certain that he is going to defeat a case of typhoid. Confidence may be a good anodyne for sleeplessness, a worthy aid to digestion, a protector against accident. The records indicate that it does not matter so greatly that the candidate for a hundred be abstemious or moderately indulgent, careful with his food or rockless, as that he feel sure that he has the secret of longevity.

So far as we know the Arabian breeders have no patented system of training their horses different from those prevailing among peoples of a similar degree of civilization, the Breeders' Gazette says. Naturally, the lack of pasture results in young Arabian horses being fed a considerable amount of hay, which also goes, at least, 'a not inconsiderable quantity of the fruit of the date palm, fresh and dried, by way of succulence. The colts are broken usually barebacked at two or three years old. Their subsequent handling is much like that of all other horses with perhaps the difference that as early in life as possible the young animals are accustomed to doing without water for inoculation. They are also accustom them later on to the scarcity of liquids in desert journeys. The ancient stories about the Arab steed being kissed and bawled over by the sheik's whole family, kept in the living tent and foaled on the best silk rugs are picturequesta fables containing about the same measure of truth as the one which dates the pedigrees of Arabian horses back to the mares owned in biblical times by King Solomon.

TOASTS OF "FIVE CAPTAINS" No Record of What Happened After the Laws Turned Turned Jaws, Rewa Here is an interesting clipping from an American publication in 1854. It is entitled "Five Captains:" "There were five captains chanced to meet—one Russian, one Turk, one Frenchman, one American and one Englishman. One proposed a champlain, one gave one to give a coat of his own native country or pay for the wine drunk. "The Russian: 'Here to the stars and bars of Russia, that were never pulled down.'" "The Turk: 'Here to the moons of Turkey, whose corners were never clipped.'" "The Frenchman: 'Here to the cook of France, whose feathers were not naked.'" "The American: 'Here to the Sails and Stripes of the United States of America, who never failed to defeat.'"

You are on the right road to success, sir, and shall always have the assistance of my associates and myself as long as it is for good. I will put your protest on file for the meeting tomorrow morning, and after it has been passed upon by the commissioners I will at once proceed 16 life it given ordinance made and filed to the effect that no produce-producing pictures or plays shall be allowed to be shown in Ogden City." Commissioner Browning said as follows: "Mr. Lemme, I as the commissioner of public safety will assure you that so far as I am concerned the play shall never be shown in the city. I believe that a man of your caliber should have the support of all good, thinking people, and you shall have my support. I was born and raised in the city, and I have not witnessed much prejudice, and would to God not any, and I believe that I voice the sentiments of the public at large when I say that we don't want anything that will disturb the peace of Ogden City. Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting one of the commissioners on the street and asked him if they had acted on it yet. He said that he would not be a city attorney now to make an ordinance, which he was doing, and I thanked God out loud." Enclosed you will find that I made mention previous to this of the clipping from your paper that I showed to them. Yours, J. R. LEMME. Digestion Affects Eyes Some light is thrown on the question of the extent that eye troubles have to do with digestion by the discoveries of an English oculist. He recently found that poisons which enter the system as a result of colitis, inflammation of the mucous membrane of the large intestine, often causes a loss of ability to see well at a distance close by. Eye weaknesses are thought to have little to do with digestion, but digestion plays an important part in diseases of the eye, many of which have been traced back directly to an absorption of poisons from the intestinal canal. In one case reported from England a man who had suffered from recurring inflammation of the eye was cured by the removal of his large intestine. Such radical treatment is not regarded as a necessary treatment. It is a clear indication of the close relation existing between intestinal and eye disorders. Rain. There are so many things worse than rain that we refuse to freec about it. If we had the toothache every other day for two months straight we might grow; if an amateur cornetist lived next door and practiced regularly we should complain; if bills were sent in once a week instead of once a month, if bores never want home, if all friendship were mercenary, if sickness was visited as oftener and day after day than health. If malicious people were many and the kind few we might justly be miserable and remain so. But so long as so many worse things that could be don't arrive it can rain every day if it wants to. Most of our joy is weather-proof. Sawed-Diff. Sermon It is said that less than 38 per cent of the regular churchgoers ever complain of the sermons being too short. -Indianapolis News.

Harvest Time in Shantung Now, come and see a harvest in Shantung. Here, too, it is the time of supreme interest to the whole family. Life in the country is practically measured by so many wheat harvests, and every old man and woman hopes to live to see one more. For weeks before, all plans are made with "reference to it. Carpentry, masonry, work of every kind must either be finished before "pulling wheat time" or laid aside at that time to wait until the harvest is over. No matter how important, in the eyes of a foreign resident, the work in hand may become, he cannot beg or buy his workmen to continue when once the wheat is ripe.

Take Things Calmly Some people act as if they were always just a few minutes behind time. If they could catch up their lives would be serene. But they never do catch up. Breathlessly they go through the day as if in pursuit of a phantom. Often they live under a great nervous tension. At the end of the day they are exhausted. One hears them speak as if they were subjected to great trials, including overwork. But, as a matter of fact, the trouble lies wholly themselves. If they would only calm themselves. If they would only calm themselves and do quietly what they have to do life would take on a wholly different aspect for them, becoming instead of a torment, a source of peace and happiness.—Irchange. Travel of the Solar System Science has demonstrated that our solar system is traveling toward the brilliant sun Vega, in the constellation of the Lyra. We know that from the spreading, slight within the grasp of scientific observation, of stars ahead of us and the equally slight closing in of stars behind us; but Vega is also traveling with inconceivable speed, in some unknown direction, as Arcturus is speeding across our line of vision at a rate of some 300 miles a second. The wise scientist, the practical scientist, and there is none other worthy the name, will be content with the demonstrable and hold his imagination absolutely within leash of demonstrable bounds.

The governor of the state of Kentucky is the movement. He will appoint a commission and a board committee from every county in the state will be selected. Pull Brown of the Hopkinsville News has been appointed publicity agent and he is one of the best in the country. To Be Hold at Fair Grounds. The exposition is to be held at the state fair grounds, one of the most ideal spots in the state for such an event. The exposition will be held July 27 to August 12, and will endeavor to show the mechanical, agriculture and industrial progress of the grand old state of Kentucky. A proposition will be made to have Indiana and Ohio join the movement. Inspired by Illinois. The commissioners have been inspired by the wonderful exposition at Chicago of the half century exposition there in August and September, and they claim they can even go farther. Miss Georgia Moore and Professor W. H. Herry have been added to the commission and have been appointed by the governor. Alderman Oscar Dre Presf, Major R. R. Jackson and Editor R. S. Abbott will be invited to speak. The Wesley family all写 hymns, including the father, three sons and a daughter, though the two brothers, John and Charles, wrote the most of all. The first volume of hymns by John Wesley was published in 1738, and the first one by Charles Wesley in 1739. Following these at intervals, John Wesley published five more volumes. Charles Wesley published 38 volume hymns, and the two brothers published several volumes together. Most of the volumes were small, some of them containing less than twenty hymns, but 20 of them contained more than one hundred hymns each, and one of Charles Wesley's volumes contained 455. Charles Wesley is said to have written altogether 6,500 hymns. His volume of hymns for children, published in 1800, was 6,020. His sister, Mehitabal Wesley, was by unhappy marriage, became Mrs. Wright, wrote some hymns, but did not publish any. He Beat the Clock "I once conceived the beautiful idea," says a Philadelphia schoolteacher, "of requiring that my pupils should write for their day exercise a brief account of a baseball game. "One boy sat through the period seemingly wrapped in thought, while the others worked hard and turned in their narratives. After school I approached the desk of the laggard. "I'll give you five minutes to write that description, I said sternly. "If it is no case by that time I shall punish you." "The lad promptly concentrated all his attention upon the theme. At last, with joyful eagerness, he scratched a line on his tablet and handed it to me. It read: "Rain—no game."—Philadelphia Inquirer. Noble Human Faculty It is a noble faculty of our nature which enables us to connect our thoughts, sympathies, and happiness with what is distant in place or time; and looking before and after, to hold communion at once with our ancestors and our posterity. There is a reason why we need to learn our ancestors, which elevates the character and improves the heart. Next to the sense of religious duty and moral feeling, I hardly know what should bear with stronger obligation on a liberal and enlightened mind than a consciousness, too, that in its acts and conduct, and even in its sentiments and thoughts, it may be necessary depending on the happiness of those that come after it. — Daniel Webster. Mercury Kills Germs Mercury is the destroyer of germ diseases in plants brought out in the Tyrol by F. X. Bickel. The vapor may be used in the greenhouses, but in the open air the metal in the usual liquid form is injected into the circulating fluids of the plants being treated. In trees, several eight-inch holes are bored through the pith in the lower branches, filled with mercury and sealed with wax—a sixteenth to a fourth of an ounce of mercury being used for each tree. The germicide effect is said to continue at least a year, and growth is not retarded. Flattery Flattery is the worst and falsest way of showing our esteem—Dean Swift.

If you cannot read it soon, return it and trust to your being able to borrow it again. In keeping it an unreasonable time, you may be keeping someone else from the pleasure reading it may afford. You may be keeping someone else from the pleasure reading it may afford. You have there that should be returned. The man who should borrow so little as a quarter of a dollar from a neighbor and fall to return it would not invite respect. Yet it is quite as bad not to return a book or magazine. Who has not had anguish of being the some choice, dearly prized gift, from a torn, with pages lacking? That "Tom upset his inkstand," or "the baby got hold of it" or similar excuse, does not mend the matter. The borrowed book should be protected from such accidents. What was worth borrowing is certain, worth returning. Certainly it was worth borrowing, and that it is not yours but the property of another—Milwaukee Journal. Purified Water Throughout the whole country the word has been passed to beware of bad water. Your family doctor will tell you that the safest thing to do is to boil every drop of water that you drink. Here is a simple arrangement for distilling water: Slip one end of a hose over the kettle and let the other end pass down through a tightly fitting cork into an earthenware jug. The steam rising from the kettle spout passes through the hose to the jug, and as the latter is cooled by the water outside, the steam condenses, once more becomes water minus all impurities. Once the device is set up you will not need to pay much attention to it, for the steam that usually goes to waste will be constantly forming into water. The water surrounding the jug need only be changed once a day. Mystery of Charm. Certain men and women, immediately on our first meeting them, make us desire to meet them again; not because they have uttered remarkable thoughts or reminded us of Venus or Apollo; perhaps they have said nothing that you and I couldn't say, and we may know people much better looking. But they radiate—what is it that we feel we want to feel it, it flows over us. It isn't sunlight or moonlight, but a fairy-light of their own. When these shining creatures come into the room, happiness enters with them. How do they do it? It gets us nowhere to say that there is "something" in the tone of their voice, or "something" in the look of their eyes. What is the something? I'm glad I don't know; mystery is growing so scarce that I am thankful for anything which cannot be explained—Alantic Monthly. Playmates for Child.

London, England, Sept. 22.—Never before in the history of London have the members of the Afro-American race been so largely represented at the music halls as at the present time. Many of the most prominent artists of the race are here and are doing splendidly at the various provinces. Many of the most talented making places never before heard of in this country. Miss Ollie Burgye, formerly of Petrograd, Russia, well known throughout the theatrical world both in America and abroad, has recently opened apartments in Southampton Row, where she royally entertains. Her first reception was in honor of Mr. Wallace Simpson, who has just returned from France. Miss Burgye is from Chicago, United States of America, and is very tall for her age, for her form and for her part in "The Wisdom of Salome" is one of the most beautiful and artistic, without the least suggestive, that has been in England.

CHICAGO GIRL AT LINCOLN INST TUTE (Special to Chicago Defender) Jefferson City, Mo., Sept. 24. — Miss Vianan Van Dyke was a v仰师 Lincoln Institute has the highest of Misses Geraldy Hodges and the highest of Misses Elizabeth Hodges and Mrs. Franklin Thompson, New York City, has been appointed matron of the school. Miss Van Dyke is the first showing made by Miss Brimanum and the Institute at the Half Century Expansion is receiving many cengraulis seen here with any actress recently. Her work is so good that managers are urging her to send to the States for more such talent as Miss Burgoyne. When seen by a Defender representative she said: "I have always wanted to show what was in the race of which I am a member. They have just as fine qualities for artistic temperament as any other race, and this has been proven by the wonderful talent of the late Alta Overton Walker, the dancer, and S. Coleridge Taylor, the musician, and D. Dunbar, the poet. Mr. Simpson Gives Recital. Mr. Simpson gave a recital here that attracted the attention of the music lover of London. His recitations were "Crew" and "Llanders" and Kipling's "Ginga Din" were shared and wonderfully interpreted by him. Mr. Simpson was formerly of Denver and New York and more recently from Paris, and arrived on his way to the States on a short visit. Why here he was royally entertained professional people. He has tray extensively, having twice circle globe, and is said to be beset most versatile dringing instruments. (Clubs and Societies.)

If you had seen a six-pound Philadelphia capon traveling down those stairs, followed by three big yellow grapefruit and half a dozen apples!" "Why, Henry!" "A bunch of colery rolled down two or three steps, and a man racing down the stairs stopped on it and slipped, and he threatened to sue me for damages. You will find the print of a man's heel on that pound of ter, and I the doxy eggs bought on the subway cars, for I have needed a shovel to have used them up after they had rolled on six iron steps!

Even if the classiest looking men you've ever seen wears the time on his pulse, he hasn't the official sanction of the American National Hall of Fame. They close their convention with the refusal to have anything to do with the bracelet timepiece. It was a fearful blow for the man who introduced the fad who has been extolling the virtues of the wrist watch, especially for the male sex. Neither the advocate of the whimsy nor anyone else proposed that with the sport shirt men might wear watches draped about their waist or draping on a chain. Neither was it intimated that men would carry their subway tickets and cigarettes in vanity cases. Snake Successful Angler That some snakes can catch fish as well as old anglers was demonstrated Sunday on the ranch of E. D. Osborne, near here. A little creek runs through the ranch on the Osborne ranch, large enough for fish to play in. Here a large water snake was seen to grab a rainbow trout by the head and make for the tall grass. Collected the snake and throw the live fish back into the pool. The fish was about 12 inches in length. From the Husum (Washington) Dispatch. To Match Hangings The table scarfs for the furniture of your room may be made to match the hangings by cutting out single motifs of cretonne and applying them to the scarf ends. Place them on the material in an attractive way and baste. They can either be sewed with an over and over stitch around the edge or buttonholed in place. If, however, you wish a quicker method, machine stitch close to the edge around the entire motif. Use for Onions. Onions are good for cleaning steel particles that have rusted. Rub the rust spots with a piece of onion and leave for 24 hours. Wash and polish the onion dust, moistened with turpentine, and wash again with a scald with clear water. Knives that have rust spots of long standing should be plunged into an onion and allowed to stand for some time. Finish the cleaning process as above. Work Demanded of Recruits Work Demanded of Recruits. The English recruit is expected to at every rifle shot into an eight-inch ring at 100 yards. The territorials must put 80 per cent of all shots into a 12-inch distance. The French soldier is required to put half of his shots into an 12-inch ring at a same range. Rubber From Petroleum. official rubber has been made from an crude petroleum, which con- chemical elements similar to C liffernium all. undreds even worse than the above- named lynching in the State of Georgia. Men have been burned, hung and layed alive. They have been dismembered limb cuts, and hates have been outraged and murdered without conviction or even protest. A hyena, bloody-mouthed, snarling, laughing, in glee around the campfire, is a baby in an infant suckling babe, has as much ply as a Georgia mob. The word covariously does not express the thousand ply. Commenting upon the possibility of the nation becoming involved in a conflict with a foreign foe, Mr. Gaston, with significant irony, recites some experiences and then asks some pertinent questions. He continues: I served from October, 1887, until August, 1911, when I served in a restaurant and hospital corps, United States Army. On returning to civil life, I one day concocted a recipe for who refuse to sell me food because I was a Negro. A confectioner refused me an ice cream served several places whose goods were on sale to the public, and was refused food. On these occasions, I carried honorable discharges, decorated the American eagle, and representing the flag of this country, have followed the flag across Western Europe into the Philippines. And yet my country should. My country protect me in time of peace? Should I serve my country in time of war? These questions are on the mind of the people, through whose veins flow Negro blood. The products of fields, shops and mines of the countryside can, even within their borders, be used by the citizens of a country who violates the rights of our country and tramples upon our rights. Roads, fields, shops and markets, roads, fields, shops and markets, opportunities, justice and our rights, opportunities, justice and our rights, the voice of all these millions, how should our country's call to arms be answered? Bottle Stopper for Travelers What appears to be one of the best devices for stopping bottles for travelers' use is made in Paris and consists of a solid rubber cork having a prolongation at the top in the shape of a rubber tube portion of about the same length as the cork itself, and of slightly larger diameter, so as to come near the size of the bottle flange. Fitting in the stopper, the flexible upper or projecting part is then turned down all around, so as to fit tight upon the bottle head and surround it for half an inch below the top. The whole then resembles what would be given by a cork and a metal bottle cap of the usual kind, but the use of rubber makes a flexible protector. Of course, stopper and flexible part are all one piece of bottle. Star Systems All In Action It is known that all of the star systems are in nightly action. All are whirling within themselves, and also as entities of systems, whirling throughout the unfathomable unknown, but whither they are tending is as inexplicable to human comprehension, notwithstanding all the splendid accomplishments of astronomical science aided by marvelous instruments, as comprehension of time and space. The assumption that the central plot of revolution is Canopus is an exception to the assumption that Alcyone was that center of gravity and the throne where sat the eternal Deity directing all of the labyrinth of star systems with an omnipotent thought. The Homeless. There are houses full of conveniences and luxuries in which no one is at home; the men and women who live in them are homeless. To such men and women, as to the men and women to whom marriage is a mere social contract and the family a mere social arrangement, there is no going home, no refuge for the spirit, no place of understanding and vision. There are no more pathetic figures in the world of today than these homeless men and women; restless, discontented and unhappy, and utterly blind to the tragedy of a life in which there is no going home.—The Outlook. Bear's History Traced Studies made at the American Museum of Natural History show that the so-called blue or glacier bear, formerly classed as a distinct species under the name of Ursus Emmonsi, and confined to a limited region near St. Elias range in Alaska, is only a color phase of the black bear (Ursus americanus). The black bear has a number of other color phaseases, some of them very local. The very locally called Ursus Kernodel, is apparently one of these variants; while the cinnamon bear is a well-known color phase of the same species. Abvinthe Plants Burned As the manufacture and sale of absinthe have been prohibited by law the little parish of Orly, just south of Paris, has lost its chief industry, the growing of absinthe plants for the trade. The new law allowed compensation for the crop already planted, so $20,000 worth of plants were handed over to the exile authorities. They were welled and burned. The same operation is performed all y indorse- d you make?" But he said he wouldn't as final." Course not! He'll persist—with resent, child. Why did you re- ceive to go motoring with him? He is dissatisfied over your manner, which I fear isn't nice. Has he done anything to offend?" "He wanted to kiss me." "And didn't? You refused? Child, when a man pays court to a woman—to a girl and is serious about it—when his intentions are honorable—there's no harm in a kiss." "But, mamma, isn't a kiss something that should be mutual?" "What do you mean?" "Should a girl let a man kiss her when she has no wish to kiss the man?" "Certainly, when the man is a man of character, and honorable purposes. You mustn't forget that such a match as you can make isn't the fortune of every girl. If your dear father were with us, he'd advise you as I'm advising you." "Is a girl to marry a man much older than she is because he's honorable and has money." "Perhaps not solely, dear. But Mr. Willing isn't so old. Only forty-five." "And I'm twenty. When I'm forty-five—which you say isn't so old—and he is still alive, if I should marry him, he will be seventy. Surely that's old enough!" "Abigail! What nonsense! What has arithmetic to do with it?" "But figures tell the truth, mamma. You were twenty when you married papa, weren't you? I think you told me so." "Yes." "And he was twenty-two?" "Yes." "And you were both poor in worldly goods, and grandma wanted you to marry a rich baker, who wanted you." "But, my child, you don't realize that times and manners are very different now—very different. Now everything is money—everybody wants money—and persons without money are absolutely submerged." "But people fall in love still, don't they—young people?" "They may think they're in love sometimes, child, but I life these days dissipates romance. Look at the divorce courts." "But I'm talking about a man I don't care a box of candy about. When you were of my age, you no doubt thought just as I'm thinking now. You've even told me you eloped with pants and marrying an old man. You were in love." "You aren't in love. And the situation is different." "Yes. The situation is different. But I am in love." "In love! With whom?" "With Charley Lyman." "That boy! With no money, no position, no—" "But haven't we money enough?" "Budge! What foolishness! And I learnt the tennis court with that chap yesterday!" "We didn't go to the tennis court." "Where did you go, then?" "We—we got married." Judge. Bird Cages the Newport Fad. The appearance at Newport of young women carrying small wicker bird cages is getting to be a daily occurrence. The desire to do something "different" has perhaps as much as anything else to do with the promotion of the latest fad, but what makes it so special is the appearance of Miss Society and her favorite song bird is getting to be almost a part of the daily routine. So, if you happen to see a tastefully gowned young woman strolling along with a bird cage dangling from the fingers of her right hand—which is the proper way to carry the cage—don't go away with the idea that the family is moving and they won't trust you. You can be sure that or that she contemplates a long journey and has no one at home to feed the pet. No, it's only Newport's latest fad. Highest Point In Kansas The highest point in the state of Kansas thus far determined by the United States geological survey is in the Syracuse quadrangle, 3,522 feet above mean sea level. A still higher point, however, established by the United States Coast and Geodetic survey, is on the Kansas-Colorado state point in the Chayne walla quadrangle is 3,876 feet above mean sea level. Concrete Concrete is made of a mixture of pebbles, stones and sand or other suitable material, to which is mixed a small proportion of lime or cement. Owing to the gradual setting and hardening of this lime or cement, the mass changes from a semifluid to a hard, compact substance, as hard as, or harder than the best building stone produced by nature.

The hearts of a pretty village bridge and her family were filled with gratitude by the presence of Queen Eleanor of Bulgaria and Miss Helen Scott Hay, formerly of Pasadena, Cal., at the marriage ceremony in a small village near Sofia recently, according to a letter received by members of Miss Hay's family here. The Miss and Miss Hay were out motoring together when they saw a great crowd of folk in holiday attire at the village home. They went in and congratulated the young bridegroom and wished for the little bride a life of wedded happiness and thereby won her love and everlasting gratitude. Miss Hay, with the personal assistance of Queen Eleanor, will soon establish a nurses' training school in Sofia. In company with the queen she has visited practically all the big hospitals in Bulgaria. According to the charming Pasadena girl Elmer Glen is graciously democratic and greatly beloved. Miss Hay is busy studying the Bulgarian language preparatory to beginning her new life work. Proper Care of the Eyes It is undoubtedly true that we do not take sufficient care of our eyes. The eye is too delicate an organ, however, to be subjected to haphazard treatment. A sudden change from very bright light to darkness should be avoided, and if the eyes are weak the prevailing color in the room in which one spends most of the time should be some that is helpful to the eyesight. Do not read while lying down, when rocking or when in a car. Do not use or read or wear in the darkest, and do not strong light fall over your right shoulder. Hold whatever you read on a level with the eyes, and do not bend over your book or paper. Sources of World's Rivers: The Shannon has its 'source in a lake, the Rhone in a glacier, and the Abbassinian branch in the Nile in abundance of fountains. The contrary where some of the mightiest rivers of the globe have their rise has not yet been sufficiently explored to render their true source as attainable. The origin of others is doubtful, owing to a number of rills presenting equal claims to be considered as the river head; but many are clearly referable to a single spring, the current of which is speedily swelled by tributary waters, ultimately flowing in broad and GEORGE F.

In some sections of Melrose the gray squirrels have been petted and fed to such an extent that they do not hesitate to enter houses in search of nuts and dainties. It is common to see as many as a half dozen of these squirrels playing about the lawns at one time, and they seem almost to have lost their fear of mankind. An accident was witnessed in which one of these squirrels figured. His squirrelship, locally known as "Billio," was engaged in foraging for some of the nuts he had cached in the grass on a lawn near a huge oak. He was seen by a playful maltese kitten about three months old. When it noted the squirrel, the beibonked kitten became all attention. Then, nature asserting itself, the kitten crouched and began to stalk its quarry. "Billio" was perfectly aware of the kitten's attention, and with one eye watched its attention, and approached, while with the other and his nose he proceeded with his search. The kitten appeared puzzled at the boldness of the squirrel and its curiosity became aroused to such an extent that it neglected its crouch and nosed to its full kitten height better to see what the squirrel was doing in the grass. When the squirrel paid no attention to it, the kitten slowly walked over two feet of the squirrel. Billie had seized the nut and calmly sat upright to open it. Without a preliminary crouch the kitten jumped for the squirrel. Billie leaped at the same instant, but went clear over the back of the kitten. When the squirrel came to the ground two feet away, it at once resumed its effort to open the nut. That was play the maltseus could appreciate. It crouched, wiggled its slick length, leaped and sailed gracefully over the squirrel. The latter dropped his nut, but otherwise did not move until the kitten again came to rest in his turn he jumped over it. As he jumped the nut ran for him, and he ran round and round the kitten, purely in play and without apparent fear. For nearly three minutes the pair kept up their antics. Then suddenly there was a black-streak from the flower bed as an older kitten rushed for the squirrel. But Billie knew his ground and his rush carried him six feet up the trunk of the friendly oak by the time the older kitten was at its base. Then Billie hung, head down, tall flirting, and in his squirrel way gave that black kitten a piece of his mind. Also two minutes of vain waiting for him to come to the door, the cladded they must delay their attack and adjourned for a romp of their own. They were scarcely 15 feet from the tree when Billie leaped down, secured his nut and scampered back up to a sheltering limb of the oak to enjoy it in peace.—Boston Globe. Marked Similarity. The dispatches state that in a determined effort to eradicate from the Ottoman empire all traces of things European; the Young Turks have or dered the removal of all business signs written in any other language than Turkish. Great confusion provals in Constantinople on this so-called "building harbors" are natives of other countries and know little of the Turkish printed characters. Strangers find it exceedingly difficult to get about, and the average citizen cannot tell from its sign whether a building harbors a hotel or a stable. Much the same condition prevails in this country. Here in Kansas City so few of the corners can be seen, whom the can scarcely tell where he is. The Metropolitan conductors call the street names in an unknown tongua. And in the average village there is a Palace hotel, Palace Barber shop Palace restaurant, Palace liver stable, and so on, with little in their appearance to differentiate one from the other.

In all important respects except one I found him but he very much what I anticipated, written Iersey Slatman in the North American Review, quoting Bayard Taylor's impression of Swin- burne. The exception is instead of being a prematurely blaze young man of the world, he is rather a willful, perverse, unreasonable, spoiled child. His nature is still that of the young Shelley, and my dear is that it will never be otherwise. He needs the influence of a nature stronger than his in everything but the imaginative faculty—such a nature as Byron's will to Shoalley. . . He has a weak moral sense, but his offenses arise from a colossal unbalanced affectation. This, or something like it, is a disorganizing element in his nature which quite obscures the organizing—that is artistic—sense. His adamant is him—yet admire with a feeling of pain and restrained preordination of the imagination. It is a godlike quality, but he sometimes uses it like a devil. He greatly interests my intellect but does not touch me magnetically. He could have no power over me, but on the contrary I felt that I should be able to influence him in a short time. I had a letter from him the other day which shows that he feels an intellectual relationship between us. Now, this is not a question of a poetic power, but of a certain diversity of qualities, and it does mean to be ecistical in saying that I might perform somewhat of the same service for him as Byron for Shelley. I feel that (if it is not already too late) I could help him to some degree of poise, of system, of law; in short, art. In his sense he moves my deepest sympathy, for I see now the matter that might be molded into a splendid poet relapsing into formless condition, and that is a tragedy. If this fancy of mine be true, he is nevertheless. Without this sense of giving assistance a week alone with Swinburne would be intolerable to me or any other human being. Frappe. Johnanning heard a humorous story that ran like this: "If Jack Johnson, Charlie Chapin and Billy Sunday were walking down the street, what would that suggest to you?" "Chocolate nut sundae, of course." John went home, and he thought he had seen a dinner joke followed him til a favorable time and pulled it in this manner: "If Billy Johnson, Do Wolf Hopper and Billy Sunday were walking down the street, what would you have?" And John looked all around to see whether there had been anyone who had heard the joke before, but the faces over the soup were blank. "Well," said his father expectantly, "I saw a paasm of unrestful burn into a paasm of unrestful burn. But he stopped suddenly, for there was not a smile around the table, and it really didn't sound as funny as it did the first time.-IndianaPops News. For Japan's coronation ceremony of taishōsu next November 27 pretty young women have been assisting in transplanting the young emerald rice plants in the sacred fields of the Mikawa province. Half way to their knees in water, they toiled dally, like their less privileged sisters, at the work. Bending down, they laid the knees in place, and rising, sang sacred Shinto prayers, for the grains of the rare festival must be perfect in shape and color—true seed pearls of the Way of the Gods. The girls are from sixteen to twenty-one years old. Of these things the papers took note. The photographers mapped them in their coming and doing and going. Not only from the girls, but from the people have come insistent marriage, love, and all but one are said to be engaged and are to be married the day of the coronation. Narcotic Cactus. The "sacred mushroom" of the Aztecs, which was called by them teonankacat and used as an intoxicant was according to investigations recently reported, not a mushroom, but the narcotic cactus, Lophoraphora Williamsi, now well known for its use by the American Indians in religious ceremonies. It is popularly called "mescal button," though a better name is poyote. Early writers on Mexico described it as a mushroom, and this notion as to its botanical status still survives. The mistake is due to the fact that in one of the two principal forms in which it is prepared the head of the plant is cut off transversely and when dried bears a close resemblance to the mushroom. In its other form it is cut longitudinal or in irregular fragments, and was described by early writers as raiz diabolica, or "devil's root." Lucky for Billy. The girl that Brown married was beautiful, musical, and all that sort of thing, but she was not strong on frizzling beef and mashing potatoes. However, she questioned the neighbor ladies and did her best. "Billy, dear," remarked the young bride as bubby returned at the usual hour, "I have made some lovely pies for supper. I was going to have sponge cake, too, but I had to upset." "That's too bad," responded bubby, looking like a real disappointment. What was the trouble?" "It was all the drugist's fault," was the surprising rejoinder of wifey. "He forgot to send around the sponges." His Sphere of Activity "I don't know what business is the right one for my son. He is so changeable." "Then why not get him into the weather bureau." His Feat. "Your friend had quite an acrobatic promotion." "How? that?" "Went up over a lot of other people's heads."

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER ROUND THE BRAGG WHAT HE WOULD HAVE BEEN Banker's Query Easily Answered by Illiterate Man Who Had "Made Good" In the World. H — lived in Indiana some years ago. He had never had the good fortune to obtain any education and he could neither read nor write. He had ambition, however, and enterprise, and one day he made application for the position of janitor of a flat. H — could not write his name and so he lost the chance to get the job. Not disheartened he later obtained a job as clerk in a grocery store. Despite the handicap, H — made good. Days and months and years filled by and by he did not find time to study, in which he became the owner of the store in which he had been working. Other years had passed and he had broadened out his business until it included stores in various towns. They began to estimate his wealth in six figures. Wishing still further to increase his business, he went to his banker one day to negotiate a loan. The banker said all right, and placed a paper before the grocer to sign his name. "I can't sign that," H—— said, and in response to the surprised look on the banker's face, added, "I cannot read or write." "Do you mean to say that you have reached your age in life and have accumulated wealth and built up your business without being able to write your name," he exclaimed the banker. "I have," the grocer said. "Well, I wonder," the banker said, "what you would have been if you had been able to write." "A janitor," said the rich grocer.—Indianapolis News. No Labor In Eden. The inhabitants of Eden plainly lived without toil. They were born to that leisure for which we strive so fiercely in this work-a-day world. So far as the man was concerned, the sting of the expulsion was the fact that he had to go forth and eat bread in the sweat of his face. Jehovah did not enforce this sentence at hard labor in the sweat of charge over Adam. He was not placed in charge of the wily serpent. The offender was merely driven forth from the garden that was full of trees. The trees had made it paradise. Every tree that was pleasant to the sight and good for food was there. The inhabitants walked about in the comfortable shade and ate. When thirst arose there were the juices of fruits and palm wine. The spontaneous products of the garden even supplied the first demand for clothes. On that day of expulsion these erathe white hairs of the inhabitants were driven forth from this rich and fruitable shade, driven to the fields to eat the herb of the field and to win bread by the sweat of their faces.—Atlantic Monthly. Need of More Training This is what one college president said in his address recently: "With the multiplicity of subjects it is only to be expected that some anxiety may be felt as to the results from present-day methods of teaching. I must contess there is some anxiety that I may perhaps the pendulum has swung too far, or we may not have discovered the correct scientific method of dealing with the subjects taught in the elementary school. I feel convinced that training is not receiving its fair share of attention. There was much anxiety about the old-fashioned grinding was not with out its good points, one of which was the cultivation of the faculty of sticking to a task until it was known."

Kid Glove Making In France The superiority of French kid gloves over all others is due above all to the perfection of the skins, the kids being reared in villages by peasants who own only a few goats and, therefore, take great care of them. Another reason is that in France one workman takes the prepared skin and manipu- lates it himself right up to the finished glove.—Newark News.

MANUFACTURED ONLY BY BIRTH OF NATION RUN OUT OF PHILADELPHIA (Continued from page 1.) not, the picture drama, "The Birth of a Nation," could never have been shown. The nation's zen, more than a thousand, fought with a hundred policemen and were dispersed more difficulty. The fight lasted more than a century, fought with a hundred conflict took on the ugliest aspects. Men were mobbed and beaten with police knives and liberty and the respectability of their mothers. Their indignation caused them more distress than a stance to the law of the city of Philadelphia was not from a source of hatred but from a source of feeling of injustice from cold and indifference of those who represent the legal duty, namely, the suppression of that foul infamy of degenerate being known. The Birth of a Nation" has been condemned by the best thinking people of our country, but the greed for wealth and the greed for power ever bids ever to bind the human race in chains as it becomes our master.

Now, sick and shock of maledictions of hatred, convulsion at the grant conspiracy against free speech, fear of the patient and law-binding, while thieves and cowards under the cloak of law attempt her disgrace. Philadelphia is progress, the old spirit is culture and refinement, liberty, equality and justice. This, and national capital, Washington, D.

Uses of Gypsum. Crude gypsum is used in Portland cement manufacture, for soil dressing, as an adulterant in flour, sugar and baking powder, and in the manufacture of crayons. Blocks of clear, white gypsum called alabaster are used by artists and sculptors. So it may be seen that ancient Egyptians were aware of the use of one of our most valuable modern materials when they plastered the commodious sides of old Cheops with gypsum.

WITH ONE GREAT COMPOSER Handel Belonged to No School, Yet Had Style His Own—Scolded Prince of Wales When Late. German by birth, an Italian by sympathy and training, an Englishman by residence and conformity, Handel belonged to no school, yet had a style an unmistakably his own as had Dante an on sculpture or Raphael in painting. Strong, egotistic, self-willed, the great composer was generally cheerful and good-tempered, but violent when irritated, and indomitably proud and independent. One who knew him well relates that when he was pleased with the way the music was going at one of his concerts, his enormous wig had always a certainod or vibration, and that at the Carlton house concerts he would swear angrily if the ladies in waiting during the music—upon which the princes would check them, say the "Hush," Hush, Hush. He did not hesitate even to scold the prince of Wales for being late at a concert and "keeping all these poor students from their scholars and other concerns" from their scholars and other concerns.

His good people were all very good and his bad people were all unmitigated badly—a set of affairs almost unknown in real life. In short, he was a dramatist; his interests stood for something, they were an impersonation of ideas and tives. Carlyle, with his usual astucc recognized it at quite an early age of Dickens' popularity. "I had to go yesterday to Dick reading at the Hanover rooms," writes, "to the complete upsetting my evening habitudes and spir compose.

The “Gang” is all powerful and if the graft isn't large enouigh to satisfy all they immediately devise ways and ineans of increasing their revenue: ‘The poor taxpayer who has a voice but fails to use it, suffers in consequence. Chicago has been very fortunate in the selection of its mayors, some have been better than others but on the whole all have been far above the average in cities of like size. In Mayor Thompson it is conceded we have reached the acme of perfection. He promised and is fulfilling that promise, to be mayor of all the people, to treat all citizens regardless of race, erced or color alike. When he had the “audacity” to give us representation in the different city departments, a howl of protest went up that would have intimidated a weakling. What he said to his assailants is best told in his own words, “I know that in some quarters I have been criticized severely for appointing a few representative Negro citizens to positions of honor, trust and dignity. I am glad to take the full responsibility and the honor for making every one of those appointments, and I want to asle my critics to be as manly and to come out in the open light of day with such un-American sentiments, “My reason for making such appointments were three fold: First, because the person appointed was qualified for the position. Second, because in the name of humanity it is my duty to do what I can to elevate rather than degrade any class of American citizens. ‘Third, because I am under obligations to this people for their continued friendship and confidence while I have been in this community. \ criticisms such as those are un-American, and have no place in| this land of freedom and opportunity, If inquiry were made concern: ing the nativity of these critics it would probably be found that a| number of them had come, or their immediate ancestors had come, to | this country to escape tyranny and oppression in some foreign land and find opportunity in this land of the free, and, having found it, would shut the door in the face of others, . Tt comes with mighty poor grace from the white man or any of| his decendants to say to the colored man, “You haven't any right here which I should respect.” It is easy to understand the attitude of our | own citizens of southern ancestry who feel obliged to denounce the Negro in order to justify the questionable acts of their forefathers, but such sentiments are entirely inexcusable when spoken by the children of oppression from any place in the wide world.” : “These are not simply words but they are borne out by actions| and that is why in the breast of every member of the race living in this big city, can be found a warm spot for Mayor Thompson. He has been likened to the immortal Lincoln, a compliment he justly deserves, PICKING CHESTNUTS OUT OF THE FIRE.

Members of the race are always ready and willing to grasp bar- gains when they come clean and withoiat a string attached to them, but the day i3 fong past when we can be used successfully as tools. The relation of the races heré in Chicago is of the friendliest. We know prejudice exists, but not to the same degree it does in other cities. We try each day to live so we can demand the respect and admiration of our neighbors and townspeople. ‘There are plenty of desirable homes we can purchase in neighborhoods to our liking and there is nothing to be gained except the enmity of perhaps some would be friends, by forcing ourselves upon them. - ‘This thing of playing the boogie man for a lot of unscrupulous whites has had its day and the curtain has rang down forever on the black man as a buffoon, EXCLUSIVE PARKS, THE PUBLIC PARKS in a majority of the cities and towns throughout the south are for the whites exclusively though they are supported and kept up by the taxpayers a great percentage of whom are of dark skin, a flagrant case of taxation without representation, but we are speaking of the south where might makes right. Every so often some councilman offers a bill to provide a separate park for the colored contingency and every so often the other members vote it down as needless expense—the whites are the ship, all else the sea. ‘We agree only in a measure with these worthy (?) solons, a few square rods of ground with a cheap or even an expensive feitce around it is something less than we will be satisfied with. ‘The park idea can be abandoned entirely if they will but give us an ample number of well appointed and intelligently superyised play-grounds. In’ park everybody is idle or worse; in a supervised playground everybody .is busy doing the things that are most interesting, use- ful and upliiting.. It takes fifteen or twenty years to make a piece of ground into a comfortable loafing place. A supervised playground can be made ready to receive the youngsters and their salaried and play educated leaders in less than a year. A good big building must be provided to hold the little folks while they exercise in the gymnasium, read in the reading quarters, listen to stories in the auditorium and enjoy a shower in the bathroom. Outside of the building, there will be swings and slides and games and maybe a bit of ground where those who like to grow something can have a “bully” time just dig- ging around, Give us a forceful leader who knows boys and girls, a sweet faced gentlewoman who ‘mothers the whole bunch until every child in the playground is courteous, generous and glad to play fair and be liked. A fair exchange is no robbery, let the white people have if they will, every public park in the south but give us in return the play- ground scattered throughout the thickly settled districts and we will be ‘more than thankful. It is to the younger generation we must look for our salvation, surround them with the higher and better things of life and they will have strength and courage to blaze the path that we may walk with less difficulty in our old age. WHEN MOBS RULE. WHERE SUCH MEN AS COLE BLEASE GO WRONG is ignoring the fact that human liberty in America is already won, and that our fundamental human rights are safeguarded by the established machinery of law; also whenever that machinery seems to fail of its object, it can be improved by natural and orderly process. All that is required is the agreement of the majority of citizens as to the im- provements needed, Of course such orderly methods of change presuppose a belief in the rule of the majority. If Mr. Blease and his kind uphold the right of any dissatisfied minority to organize mobs and administer impromptu mob law they are anarchists, and you can’t reason with an anarchist, Strong measures should immediately be taken to suppress the law- less element and make them adhere strictly to the governing rules of the state in which they reside, If this is not done we may expect a state of affairs to exist similar to what Mexico is today passing through. The lynching and inhumanly treating the black man has become so commonplace in the south, it has actually grown to be a habit with them, and it is only an easy step when once the conscience is deadened, to go from the black to the white man, a statement that the Leo Frank case amply proves. Now the world is sitting up and taking notice, the rowdy element have begun to prey on members higher up in their own race,-which makes their deeds doubly ghastly and revolting. While it wasn't exact- ly right in the minds of many to treat the black man as they would a yellow cur, still only a feeble protest was raised. When a prominent white man suffered the same fate the whole world stood aghast. Simply a case of the shoe being on the other foot. The courts are the con- science of community, and the conscience of a community cannot be represented by a mob. Until the Cole Bleases of the south can be ef- fectually squelched there is little hope for that section of the coun- try making the progress that civilized people are expected to make, When mobs are no loniger possible only then will they take a step forward, only then will liberty come into its own, POLITICS IN THE CHURCH. WITH ITS INJUNCTION SUITS and restraining orders the recent convention of divines resembled a political gathering more than a church meeting. It scems too bad that the intelligent in our race are unable to adjust their affairs quietly and amicably rather than by hurling vile epitaphs, rushing into the courts and public print. In the present squabble undoubtedly there was just claims on both sides and it would seem that men of the cloth could come in closer relation with each other than the laity and settle their difference, financial and otherwise, to the satisfaction of both sides. Perhaps we expect too much from our spiritual advisers, they are but human after all, but it does take a little of the reverence away to witness a spectacle such as. was presented here in'the First Regiment at the National Baptists con- vention. It may be true that other religious organizations have their differences in the white race, and fight them out along the same lines, but we cannot do everything we sce the other race do and get by with it without feeling the after effects. Our virtues are seldom held up “to the light, our faults always. It is to be regretted that Chicago had to be the scene of this unpleasantness. LOUISVILLE, KY., is to dedicate a new Pythian Temple, said to be the finest in the south, on the 26th of this month. Realizing the fact that no big event can be pulled off anywhere in the country without the presence of one or more leading lights of the “Windy City” a special invitation was extended to “The Press” to joint Maj. R. R. Jackson who is one of the leading lights in the organization. At the banquet. which will be tendered them Monday night a flood of Chicago oratory is expected to astonish the natives. A MARKER WAS DEDICATED RECENTLY on the Burling- ton trail at Medora, Ill., which commemorates’ the famous anti-slavery speech made by Owen Lovejoy Jilly 2oth, 1860, when he addressed 20,- 00 in behalf of Abraham Lincoln and against Stephen A. Douglas.

Lovely state of affairs for civilized people to live in, IF ACCORDING TO BILL SPLIVINS there is just so much heat and so much cold that must come in every year, it doesn't take much of a mathematician to figure out that'we are to have our sum- mer weather this winter.

We realize that heart disturbance and disease are on tho increase, especially among the younger people. “This in part is due to Sgnor- anco or liek of Imowledge—to our American habit of indifference as to the physteal condition until we are brought face to face with its hand caps, and to our nervous, reckless, strenuous urban life, In these series we hope to give knowledge a5 to how (0 avold certain dangers to the heart onee it lias be- come diseased, and to give hone and encouragement to those who are s0 unfortunately afflicted with any heart disturbance, ‘The educated physician knows that heart troubles are often brewing with: out the conscious knowledge of tho individual; that it often comes un- awares upon the individual, who may be apparently enjoying tho best of health; that said individual ts made conscious of his approaching heart danger only when he presents him: self or he, If for a life insurance examination or some rigid civil serv- ice examination for a good position, Itis then that his or her heart defects are detected. If he or she had been apprised of his or her heart condition ‘or had been taught to detect the very deginning of cardiac aisturbanees, he or she might have been able to have passed a satisfactory examination to warrant @ good life insurance policy for himself or dependents, or a good civil service position, ‘We want to warn the well from do- ing those things which cause or lead to heart disease, We desire to help and advise those who are afflicted with heart disease to avold doing those things which if continued in will surely lead to needless tragic sacri fices of the lives of so many good men and women who by following little simple advice, by being cautious, might have protonged their lives be. yond the biblical allotted time of three Score years and ten, We ure confldent that If we avoid heart disease we are more likely to escape disease of blood vessels, dis- ease of the kidneys, or Bright's dis- ease and diseases of the liver. “Leaky Heart.” A “leaky heart” is one in which one or more of the valves fit in an imper- fect manner when closing, thus per- mitting blood, when the heart con- tracts, to escape and flow backward. ‘This leaky condition may be due to several factors, viz: defects in valves of the heart; second, defects in orifice or openings’ of heart which the nor- mal valve may fail to close complete. ly. This condition is due to lack of tonfeity of heart muscles. We some- times have trouble in both the valves and muscle fiber tonicity. When the blood escapes backward you have in- ereased work thrown on a diseased heart whose function ts to keep up the circulation, nourishment of the tissues and the heart itself. Thus, you See, a weakened, poorly nourished heart has not only its own muscles to feed, but must keep up and send nourishment to all the tissues of the body. You see from this why good doctors advise rest in heart disease. You can readily see that a weakened, Handicapped, wasted heart will not Jong be able to meet the demands of prolonged physical strain, physleal activity, without great and’ dangerous risks of a break. Heart Readjustment, Do not be alarmed over a “leaky Neart”—cardia regurgitation—due to defective valves or enlarged orifice. ‘The heart muscles have great power of readjustment of paris so as to carry on its work. ‘The valves may become entirely closed at each contraction and thus prevent any backward flow of blood. Especially is this true in young subjects, A heart onco dam- Aged and which las undergone a change of readjustment to normal ac- tion should never be heavily taxed. Such an. individual should eschew all aleoholies, lead a very even, hygi- enfe life after he has reached adult life. Children and youths often make satisfactory recovery from leakage of the heart and develop into robust ‘manhood and womanhood. “Leaky. heart" due to functional heart disturbance, and "leaky heart” due to organic disease can be amend- ed or entirely corrected by early, In- telligent, fudfcious ‘treatment. ‘The general health should be kept up to But are you still a Rent Payer?
