The Pioneer Press. ESTABLISHED 1882. African Poet Is A Genius I have recently received from Monrovia, Liberia, through the courtesy and kindness of Mr. A. Milton Diggs, of Liberia College, two small volumes of poems written by Edwin Barclay, one entitled, "Gradus AD Parnassum." the other "Leaves from Love's Garden." Of their literary merit and value I think there will be but one opinion, viz., that they are of an exceptionally high order of excellence and show their author to be a man of rare literary talents. Here is one entitled "The Race-Soul." It carries a deep meaning and will I am sure appeal to all Negroes who are of the race racy. Say, what O what of the great race soul, The soul of the black and free,— The soul that throbs 'midst the deepest gloom With a true immortality? Yes the world rolls on, and the ages pass And life with its thunderous tread Keeps pace with the rhythm of the soul's deep song As we steadily forge ahead! While it throbs and throbs and the dom- inant hand Strikes the chords of affections pure, There's never the ghost of a pase desire. Or materialistic woe! Grasp the wrath of your noon-night dream! The black man treads in a surer field Where no traitorous beauties gleam And he measures arms—but not with men Of a "base and low design" Who ever rejoice in the clink of gold And the sparkle of ruddy wine. Yes he measures arms, ay, but not with those Who murder the weak and small; But he mounts the heights of a pure delight When he pities the woes of all! O the fulsome ring of the battle shout, Wakes no echoes in his breast; For the black man hates the turbulent field— The brood field of a great unrest Give place, O man of the ashen face, How low to immutable laws. For the Earth belongs to the soul that works. The will of the Great First Cause. I think there will be little difficuity in interpreting the poet's meaning. The "man of the ashen face" will certainly grasp it quickly. I give a stanza from "A Song of Faith" showing the deep religious fervor of this poet. O God, our help through all the past. Our shelter from the world's fierce blast. To thee in supplication, now, Thy lowly children bow: If thou refuse thy gracious ear, Ah, whither shall we go? Ah whither shall our burdens bear From out this world of woe? Deepest woe? Hear Q hear. Hear him sing of Liberty. "THE LONE STAR." When Freedom raised her glowing form On Montserrado's verdant height, She set within the dome of night, 'Midst lowering skies and thunder storm The Star of Liberty! And seizing from the waking morn, Its burnished shield of golden flame. She lifted it in her proud name, And roused a nation long forlorn To nobier destiny. This is fine I think. DAWN.

THE DEATH OF FAITH. Toll, toll, toll Ye solemn bells of night! Let your wild requiem roll Far o'er the earth with might. Toll, toll, toll, Toll for the death of truth and right! Toll for the birth of errors night Toll ye the rampant joy of sin! Toll, for the good that might have been. Toll, toll, toll Toll ye from brazen throats your ire, Let the wild clang our rising higher. Shriek loudly out life's wild despair; For Faith and Hope lay dying where Irreverent lusts control the soul. John E Bruce-Grit. Youkers, New York.

BOY SCOUT BOOKS This Boy Scout movement is creating considerable interest throughout the country; hardly a newspaper or magazine escapes some mention of it; it is yet in its infancy and literature on the subject is in great demand. Hurst & Co., the well known publishers of popular priced books, have issued the first volume of their "Boy Scout Series," by Lieut. Howard Payson, entitled; "THE BOY SCOUTS OF THE EAGLE PATROL." Whether you are a Boy Scout or not, you will want this thrilling volume; every wide-awake, healthy boy should own a copy. Price, including postage, 50 cents. From your bookseller, or mail orders to HURST & CO., 395 Broadway, New York. Anecdotal Literature Anecdotal Literature NOT AT HOME. The late Mr. Wilberforce, Esq., often instructed his servant, when he did not want to be annoyed by a visitor, to use the usual conventional "Not at home." A tedious visitor had, nevertheless, been suffered by the servant to intrude upon his busiest hours. He indignantly demanded why the intruder was left in, "Why did you not say I was not at home?" "I did Sir," said the servant, "but he looked so hard at me, as much as to say, 'I know that you are telling me a lie,' so that I was a hamed, and let him in." STRONG BEER Inspector Dow of Crippen notoriety told a Buffalo reporter that he was most impressed in America by the grandeur of Niagara Falls and the sobriety of the American people. To which the Scotland yard detective replied: "We have no such sobriety across the water. Our slums of a Saturday night are horrible. It's the beer you see. British beer is almost as strong as American whiskey, as the following story proves: Two British beer drinkers were seated together in a saloon. One said to the other: "I've been very sick George. For two days little snakes and frogs and lizards were crawling all over me." "Been sick!" said George; "why, man, you're sick still. Pink swarms of them are crawling all over you now." COMPENSATION. Sam.—"Wot is this 'ere compensation, Bill?" Bill.—Well, it's like this. If yer blind, ye hear the better." Sam—Oh, I see. For instance, if a feller's born with one leg shorter'n the other, then the other leg is longer." \* \* NO 'IUNES. Proud Mother—"Sit down to the piano, Maria, and play some of the tunes you heard at the concert, yesterday." Maria—Ma, there weren't any tunes. That was all classical music." Bad habits are as infectious as the plague. The idle make those idle with whom they associate. The vicious libertine debauches or corrupts the innocent till he too corrupts. The quarrelsome creates broils wherever they intrude. Gamesters make gamesterr; and thieves make thieves. There is a tendency in nature to cause everything where it is possible to produce its like. An eminent French artist put on the door of his study— "Those that are idle are always troublesome to those that are occupied." CHIPS. We would cling to the joys of youth, but they are gone beyond recall. We would hold fast to the pleas- ures of life that once were ours, but they drain away as through a sieve. The heart growe weary when we have to say "Good By," to youth. When a person is under a cloud if ever so innocent, false friends grow falser, and the once friends become cold. Every broken illusion leaves in its place a painful wound. When you are poor you are traumpled upon like a worm, while others trample upon venal carpets. The largest and most valuable nugget was found in Australia, weighing 184 pounds 8 oz. Troy, and worth $41,000. AVERTS AWFUL TRAGEDY. Timely advice given Mrs. C. Willoughby, of Marengo, Wis. (R. No. 1) prevented a dreadful tragedy and saved two lives. Doctors had said her frightful cough was a "consumption cough and do little to help her." After many remedies failed her aunt urged her to take King's New Disease, "I have been using it for some time," she wrote "and the awful cough has almost gone. It also caved my little boy when taken with a severe bronchial trouble." This matchless medicine has no equal for throat and lung troubles. Price 50c and $1 00. Trial bottle free.

As we mould the children of the toiling masses in our cities, so we shape the destiny of the State which they will rule in their turn, taking the reins from our hands. In proportion as we neglect or pass them by, the blame for bad government to come rests upon us. From The Children of the Poor, by Jacob A. Riis. THE ETIQUETTE OF TIPS John Henry William Rebm, of Chicago, who, with Henry Hanginsen, another Chicago waiter, will pass the summer in Europe, traveling on the proceeds of tips paid him, gave the following precepts on tipping today. He plans to follow them in giving his own money away. When dining alone, 10 cents. When dining with a woman, 25 cents. When entertaining a party, 50 cents or more. When in doubt, 10 per cent of bill. Deduct accordingly when the waiter refuses to emile. Never offer a tip until after service is over. Be liberal, but don't overdo it. Rebm will take his wife and two daughters on the trip. They will sail on the Lusatania in the best quarters available, and for three months will "do" Europe in style. "A waiter should receive $50 a week' in tip," said Rebm, in telling of his experience as a Chicago waiter. "Sometimes when politics is on a waiter can get as much as $10 a day, but other times it runs nearer $5. But it isn't so much getting the tips as saving them that counts." Rehm did not disclose the amount of his savings, but he admitted he had three cottages in Michigan, another cottage in Edgewater, besides the one in which he lives, and some city bonds.—New York Times. Fatigue Causes Varied Ailments Fatigue Causes Varied Ailments Fatigue is a strong factor in causing disease and accidents, declared Dr. Frederick S. Lee, in a lecture at the Teachers College last night. The prevalence of nervous ailments among skilled workers is due, he asserted, to excessive fatigue. He added: "There is no known antidote for fatigue except rest. When the muscles are subjected to excessive strain fatigue is felt on the brain, and excessive brain work results in muscular fatigue." Dr. Lee said that in the University of Pennsylvania a year ago, rabbits were inoculated with disease germs. All the rabbits which had been fatigued died. All the others lived. "Fatigue diminishes the strength of the agencies in the body, by which it defends itself against disease," said Dr. Leo, who said that the factors which cause fatigue and consequently are responsible in a measure for the nervous diseases and accidents among workingmen are closeness of attention, speed, and monotony. Piece work, he added; is one of the bane of modern industrial conditions, because it excessively fatigues the worker by urging him to work at too great a speed. A tired worker is more likely to have an accident, he said, because his attention is distracted. In France it has been found that most accidents occur in the periods of greatest fatigue, near noon and late in the afternoon. Dr. Lee urged that workingmen be protected from fatigue. The object should be not the quantity of work but quality.—New York Times No. Never. Its foolish to fear a fancied evil, when there are real and deadly perils to guard agents in swamps and marshes, bayous, and lowlands. These are the malaria germs that cause ague, chills and fever, weakness, aches in the bones and muscles and may induce deadly typhoid. But Electric Bitters destroys and casts out these vicious germs from the blood. "Three bottles drove all the malaria from my system," wrote Wm. Fretwell, of Lucams, N.C. "and I've had fine health ever since." Use this safe, sure remedy only. 50c at all druggists. The best place to get your watch clock or jewelry repaired in this town is at Mr. J. W. Bratt's.

Kraft, the Socialist healer commissioner, of Milwaukee, Wisconsin, believes that he has discovered that the use of onions and olive oil is a prevention of scarlet fever and diphtheria. The department will start in an effort to prove whether this is true or not. It is a fact that districts where onions are largely used have been free from these dis ases in the past year, more so than higher class portions of the city. ———————————— AN INDEPENDENT WSKKLY NEWSPAPEK DaVOTID TO THHMO“AL, RELIGIOUS AND @INANCIAL DAYELOY AUNT OF HUMAN- zi. os ; states of Bubseription: ©} Le FORT ese. semearcrseyesoom cose $2,503 > © MONS. cys eeeseseeiermstpeee TEC: , (S MOAEDB arctan sseeeresesrsgensersteen GOO ay forall advertisements ie dua vin advance unless advertising is ron by yearly contrast, in which case the ud- Vertiser pays evo1y three months, Advertismy iinch one time Tc.

Itwas quite an enjoyable affair, and all those present er joyed themselves. Prominent among the out of town speakers were Senstor Chiltoa and Congressmen Brown. Both are fine speakers avd tho occa- sion wae heightened by their pres- ence. Former Senator Charles James Faulkner bas resigned as president ol the Young Men’s Christian Atso- ciation. He gives as his reason for 80 doing the fact that hie large law practice in Washington and else- where occupies almost all his time therefore rendering further retentior ofthe position impracticable. The Senator, being such a thorough wan has made an cxcellent president, and the place msde vecant by bim wil be hard to fill, Some time ago Jobo E. Bruce, the well known newspaper correspond- ect, bad something creditehle to say in cur columns about Mr. Edwio Barclay, who is reputed to be the most distinguished poet in Africs. ‘Tis week Mr. Bruce favors us witb some of bis poetry, and it will be fouod gn anotber part of the current issue To us it appears to bave the sound of real poetry, and we think will 1¢psy anyone who takes the time to give ita careful and critica! perusal. Willivm Jeonings Bryan traveled ‘be world over and gathered some ideal egge, cume bome and hatcbed tbem, «od to be eure of their growth, fed the chicke only on the yolk of sound ergumeotutive egge, The cbicha did well and the demond for ‘hem woe s!most onivereal, and Mr. Bryan was much tulked of for Pree ids nt.

Attorney Thomas "L Higgins, Clark-curg’s wal Keown ard breiny colored lawyer, pruposes to establish a colored newspaper in that city ‘We understand that the first issue of the new publication will make its initial bow to the public about the first week in May. The Pioneer Press wishes Mr, Higgins and his associates in the new venture a suc- cess, and hopes it will prove a bless- ing\to tue community which it is wah 7 to serve. SSB Mer Stripling, the convicted ath rer who wus curried back to Gedraiu after Laving escaped from jul sod eerved as Cuirf of Police of Danville, Virginie, for sv veral terms, has been retused a pardon by Gov- ernor Brown. Io takiog this action Georgia's Chief Ex-cntive has shown true reepec? for the law and has on- Gosred himsell to the good thinking people everywhere. Of course it is rather bard fora man to have to epend the bslaces of bis naturel life in prison, but Stripling baa esrned the pouishment which has been meted cut to him, and there is notb- ing for bim to do but nodergo it. When a man fuibleesly murdere threo of hie fellowes, two white and ove colored, he may expcct to reup whaothe sowe, “because your gins will surely fird you ot,” no mater liow much you try (o hide them. In refusing S:ripling’s application for» pardon, Governor Brown went counter to the wishes ef many cf bis constituents, and unmoved by the maudtin sympathy given him, the governer did bis duy. Gentlemsn- desperudoes of the Stripling eort are tov pumercus in this country saoy- way, and the sooner there is a falling offio'thcir number, the better for everybody. Since the resignation of Mr, Frauk S Emomert from the Foard of Affairs of the Ci y of Martinsburg, we bave heard the nemes of several gentlewon mentioned in connection with the vacancy cecasioned. Withcu® any disparsgement to the others wen- tioned, the name of Mr. Robert L. Snodgrass gourds eepecially govd te us. As everyore in Martinsburg knows, he ix the well known drvg- gist of the Northern section of this town,and ona eccount of hia keer forceight, fine business ability and geacral excellence of character we know of no better man to fill tbe ‘vacancy on the Board of Affairs than Mr. Snodgrave, We don’t know that Mr. Snodgrass could b porenaded to accept x place on the Poerd of Affairs, because he bas so much private bueiness to claim bis attention, but if he is, Mayor Caskey would do (h: fowa and bimeell credit by sppointing bim.

Thia report evidently grew ont of a change re- cently made in the method of dis- patcbing over w portion of the Moa. ongab Division of our line in the mining district of West Virginia. Some time ago’ the,! Baltimore and Obio installed the telephone system of dispatcbing on a section of ite line between Salem and Parkersburg: W.
