The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans 5-It is not controlled by any right orique. 6-It asks no support but the people. SOME SMART SMITHS VOL.16.NO.24. HAT was a queer old town where I was an apprentice boy fifty years ago, and there were some queer characters living in it. One of the queerest was old Shock Stone. He was only HAT was a queer old town where I was an apprentice boy fifty years ago, and there were some queer characters living in Chicago. Old Shock Smith. He was only about thirty or so, but he was Old Shock to everybody. What his Christian name was or if he had any I do not know, but it would have been a great waste of good money. He was named name to Shock. He had no earthly use for anything Christian. He belonged to the working class and was a hard worker. He class, he owned the place on which he lived near town. He inherited it from an uncle. Old Blinker Smith, who was said to have received it from some nabob for helping him abduct a lady. Failed-out, overworked looking woman who seemed never to have known a happy day in her life, and he treated her shamelessly. His playful manner of regurgitating Mrs. Shock when he was a nabob was unique. Between Shock's and Old Kenda's gardens ran a very pretty, neatly clipped haw-haw hedge. Old Kenda owned the hedge and was very proud of it. It was about four and a half feet high. When Old Shock got mad with his wife he used to pick her up and, as he called it, chuck her over into Old Kendal's garden. It was a long step up Kendal's garden and round the road to her home, but Mrs. Shock took the trip about four times a day. Always being carried the first part of the way and efficiently helped over the haw-haw must have been an advantage. Still I think the poor woman became tired of it at times, having too much of a good thing, as it were. The truth is Old Shock was an all-round, AI, first-class, frenclad, case-hardened, copper-bolted, triple-plated, diabolical old rascal. That is a short way of saying he was a kind of sealwag. He had the ability of a Wellington and the cunning of a fox. He was known to be in league with a gang of city burglars and to give them pointers about country houses. The police and gamekeepers watched him constantly, and it would have been both glory and profit to the man who caught him, but he was too smart for the lot. His place was a small house, garden and about five acres of land, through which ran a small stream, and the quantity of game that Shock sold from that place was a caution. His most enjoyable amusement, after chucking Mrs. Shock over the haw-haw, was when a local square had a shooting party to appear at exactly the right moment for effect (say when they were bunched round a djemnih, fresh phasen, and a few others to address the square in a half-fellow-well-met style, tell him about his shooting ground and how much game he had shipped off of it and end by inviting the buncheon and a half day's good shooting. The more game on his land than there is on the court house square, and that he was then carrying belonging, most likely, to the man to whom he was talking. For example, a predator against killing folks. One day Old Shock brought a friend home to dinner with him. Mrs. Shock prepared two pieces of beefsteak, one much larger than the other. When they were served, the man was a nervous, heating manner, so he grownel, "fork out that mate." Still very nervous, she handed the stranger the largest piece of steak. Shock jumped up, and he took a bite. The man over into Old Kendall's garden. Then he came back, jubbed his fork into the piece of meat on the stranger's plate and put it on his own. He then gave the friend a bite of steak. The man over into the appetite was spelled by this simple incident, and that he went off without his dinner, but then some folks are altogether too silly particular. When Shock cleared up all there was to eat he had a few pieces of meat, which was getting drunk, and he made a right good job of it, while Mrs. Shock stayed over in Old Kendall's garden and dined on good green gooseberries he mended just as good as new. A Morrison missionary struck that town, put up a three-wogan and horses' inn, and started in making saints. Two days after her arrival, he stayed for a fortnight and made only one saint, and that one was Old Stock. The rest of the villagers were pretty steddy church-ers, and altogether too twedded to their idols (nice looking women) to be allowed to the many of them, and the women did not believe in one man owning a whole, unlimited joint stock company. Mrs. Shock did not like the idea much, and she could not be much tougher as a saint but a sinner, so she went along with him. Shock soon sold off all his property and went off to a Morrison settlement with a gang of nearly three hundred from different towns, and she was killed by him. Unless the saints could really work miracles which they claimed to do, I expect that in the course of time Mrs. Shock to the extent of fifteen or so had been being chucked over the hudson river, a young, old year, washed-out Mrs. Shock, the first, at the tail end of the procession. Then there were two Marthax Smiths, father and son. Why they were called Marthax nobody knew, but as they were known, they had a nobody called Old Pat—but, let me look at the moment. Did you ever stop to think how remarkably smart all the Smiths are? You know they are plentiful, of course, but I know they are not plentiful, matter how low down these smiths only live long enough they will prove themselves to be true, smart Smith. Take Joseph, for instance. No one but a Smith could have dug that at a box of fruit, but they would have hill or a peach orchard, whichever it was, and then get three respectable men to go before a justice and make alludivit that they had not only seen it but had befitted THE MEN, THE MONEY AND THE SHIPS.

The new boats are of American manufacture from keel to mast head, and are of the most approved type of fighting ships. The picture shows how the new fleet will appear, affect. it (vide preface in early editions of Mormon Bible), and afterwards build up a "Kingdom of Wed-a-heap" out of it. I the man made a mistake when they charged him with not don’t think they would ever have had anything like the picnic they have had lately in Washington if they had stuck to it. A Smith would have fired them into it. Then there was John. Who but a Smith would have thought of holding Pocahontas up in front of him to keep the Indians out. And our own Hoke. You don’t suppose that his maver thought that he would rise to the dignity of going duck hunting in a punt with a president. I tell him that a Smith cannot be overestimated. But to go back to the Marthaxes or Pains, Old Pat leased an old tumbledown blacksmith and wagon shop. He was a man of great head and headship, black hair. He was married and had a lot of children. The eldest, young Pat, was the only boy, and he was a man of great handsome lot. He was a splendid workman, and when sober he could turn out better work and more of it than the average man in his trade. He could work with his hands, and he drunk, and when all was spent and the pinch came he would go to work again. He was passionately fond of his handmade children, especially the boy. Their home The additions to the United States Head, and are of the most approved happy one in a rough sort of way and a downright pandemonium. As a wag said; Pat was always heading either a love feast or a fight. Mrs. Smith was a very capable woman, and kept her house and seemed possible with her surroundings. Young Pat was about eighten at this time—a true chip of the old block in all respects, and all counted a pretty discrepancy. She had a new old an old shed a few reds back of the shop Young Pat built out of scrap iron and old bricks a sort of furnace in which he could heat irons about four feet long. These he passed through a sort of warehouse and which cut them up into short, jammed up sort of lengths, and these he would take into the shop and finish into nails. The Pat, took turn and turn into a large shed last day or so of Old Pat's spree he would kick that nail mill into finders and then sober up and go to work. Now Young Pat would have a turn at drinking, and about the time Old Pat went off and the pat would be so弱 enough to rebuild the nail mill. One day a gentleman's horse threw a shoe in the hunting field and he came to the shop to have it fixed. After some trouble he found Young Pat putting a hot shoe in the hole. He sat on the gentleman, telling him what was wanted. He won the stranger's heart by stopping short and quietly looking over the splendid mare. He took the saddle off and put it on the blanket over her and then remarked that he would like to see her top a raspar (Jump a bad fence). While Pat was shooting the mare the gentleman went THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. JUNE 16. 1900. back to the shed and looked over the nail mill. When all was ready to go except paying for the horseshoe he stood a minute or two thoughtfully tessing some coins in his hands. Finally he said: "Say, you fellow, I know all about you and your fast. You are never going to do anything good here. Now you quit drinking and work steady for a few days, then you take a copy of that thing you have in the shed there and go to Birmingham, that is the heart of the nail-trade. Work there—until you hear a good, liberal man with his workman; go to him and show him that machine."

He did so of in that village for nearly twelve years. Old Pat drank drinking from the day that his son left, and it was not many years later. He was in a row of new workshops and he was emptied a number of men. He was one of the kindest and best of employers and was one of the most deservedly influential and successful men in the villages. One Sunday morning a well-dressed lady and gentleman and a little girl came into church late. They were young Pat and his wife and child. He was at that time in a large rolling mill near Birmingham.

USEFUL FRESHWATER COLLEGES. Described by Mr. Parsons, Who Has Given $3,000,000 to Education. D. K. Pearson has given to the smaller colleges of the country almost three million dollars, and in the Saturday morning classes he has large usefulness of these "freshwater" institutions. He expresses the liveliest satisfaction with the results of his beneficence. Speaking of one he says: "Colorado Springs is a college to which he must be back with a consuming thirst for an education. Ahl What a sturdy set those fellows are! "Well, this college is an example of what I have said is the typical history of the freshwater college. It must have been a plotted camp almost on its site in company with a band of Ute Indians. There was an insignificant little hamlet on the spot where the city of Colorado Springs the inhabitants prospered. One day an earnest and devoted Christian missionary came along. He read the hearts of the people—or at least a part of them. Instantly he saw that the great need of that community was a college. Even the most well-to-do settlers could not afford to send their children hundreds of miles away to the nearest big college. Among the more thoughtful members of the college, Mr. Sloan and his college there met with a warm response, and he went at the project with a will. In a way he succeeded. I believe his institution was at first called an academy, but later became water colleges. From the start it trumped men-good, sound men—who became the preachers, lawyers, merchants, editors, school teachers, school commissioners and teachers. "Finally it passed into the hands of a young man named Bioscum. He was full of good business snap, and I law he was the young man to make that thing go. When you raise $150,000 for the endowment he gives you I pay for you $50,000 in cash to collect the total up to $200,000." The upshot of the matter that Mr. Sloan got the $50,000, and Mr. Pearson says could be desired, and he instutes others. CARRYING OUT HIS WISHES The Baroness Reinelt of Trieste, whose husband died, leaving a fortune of $50,000 for her beloved purposes, went to a bazaar and perused a pink by a lady in charge of the stall. How much may I pay for this flower? she asked. "There are no limits set to your generosity, baroness," was the reply. She said, "I will pay enough for it to cover the arrears of the music exhibition." The amount required for this purpose was $500 florins, or nearly $5,000—Tit-Bit. D THE SHIPS. table indeed. The new boats are of Ameri STONEWALL JACKSON'S COUSIN *Mrs. Emma Van Dusen* took the oath of office last week as a deputy United States marshal. Her headquarters will be at Dallas, Texas, and her duties are those of any male deputy. Mrs. Van Dusen is a handsome, refined woman of thirty years. She is the widow of Charles Palmer Van Dusen, who was born in New York. She was appointed by United States Marshal George H. Green. The marshal says he will arm Mrs. Van Dusen and Mrs. Palmer. He says that she carry a gun, the same as a man. The new deputy marshal subscribes modestly to this, and says she will do so. He will do so if there is necessity for him. Mrs. Van Dusen was born in Hillsboro, N. C. Her father was Robert O'Daniel of county Cork, Ireland. Her mother was Miss Jackson of Virginia, a cousin of "Stonewall" Jackson of Montreal fame. She was appointed because it was known she was of intrepid stock—New York World. AS THOUGH THEY WERE BOYS. Two sisters living in San Francisco are achieving success in unusual occupations for women.

The father of the girls is a carpenter and conceives the idea of bring- HIS MAJESTY, BABY UNHF the 'bus stopped and the old gentleman entered we had been a contented and genial company, traveling from suburb into the city in high good fellowship, and our absolute monarch was there, and we were all doing a well doing artisan, a wise-looking, capable, bonnie young woman, and Baby was not a marvel of attire, nor could he be called beautiful. He was dressed after a careful, tidy, comfortable fashion, and that is all you would have noticed you met the two on the street. In a 'bus where there is nothing to do for forty minutes except stare into one another's faces a baby has the great chance of his life, and this baby was made to be a child. We were no pins about his clothes, and nobody had made him afraid, and he was by nature a human soul. So he took us in hand one by one till he had reduced us all to a state of delighted subjection, to the man scandal and secret pride of his mother. His first conquest was easy, and might have been discounted, for against such an onset there was no power of resistance in the elderly woman opposite—one of the lower middles, fearfully stout, and, of course, he ife-let he be smaller. He simply looked at her—if he smiled, for without her knowledge, her arms had begun to shape for his reception—so often children lain to ample resting places, little to little, good to see "im." No one cared to zirrion can manufacture from keel to mast the words, and we remarked to ourselves how the expression changes the counternance. Not heavy and red, *tar* dull less, proper adjective for that face is motherly. The next passenger, just above Grantee, was both pretty and a mother, of course; dutiful and over, as an expert at her sharpest? The mother is conscious of inspection, and adhesion, and she was a foolishness aside, and then she merely awaited a proval. For a moment we were anxious, and the lady was foolishness, for in half a minute the lady was detail: My first fourteen months, and I always well." One was a lady, the other working woman; they had not met before, and they had forgotten strangeness and differences in the common bonds of a woman. Opposite me a priest was sitting and pointing his eye off the mother, and I thought his lips shaped the words "Sancta" and he went on with the appointed portion. Baby had wearied of inaction and had begun another campaign, and my heart sank, for this time he courted defeat. On the other side of Grammie and within Baby's sphere of influence was a man about whose profession there could be little doubt, even if he had not had a bag on his knee and were not reading from a parchment document. After a long and serious consideration of the lawyer's clean-cut, clean-shaven, bloodless face, Baby leaned forward and tapped gently on the deed, and then, when the keen face looked up in quick inquiry, Baby replied with a smile of roguish intelligence, as if to say, "By the way, that parchment would make an excellent drum; do you mind me—? A tune has just come into my head." MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. $2.40 PER YEAR. The lawyer, of course, drew away the thing, at the insolence of the thing. No, he did not. The lawyer if you know how to find it. He lawyers if you know how to find it. He was not a first-rate emile, but it was a first-rate time he did it better, and afterward it was a first-rate lighted up his eyes. He had never been a gocial, irresistible way before, and so he ranged on "Rule Britannia," with much spirit, while Grannie appealed for assistance as the band in 'yde Park of a Sunday.' After a well deserved rest of forty seconds during which we wagged our heads in his right-hand neighbor, and for the last minute of the minute, examined her with compassion. An old man without question his thin lip, and the hard gray eyes. None of our uncle care to trifle with her. Will he be able to sing, so solly, so solly, velly, velly, velly? He tender and gently stroked her cheek, acting as if to say, "Poor thing, all alone, 'lone, lone,' all alone, solly, so solly, so solly, velly, velly," he tender and true enough to win a man's heart and keep it, and that her lips spoke to her. I repair my neglect. She must have had a beautiful woman in her youth—no, no-to-day, just when she inclines her head, she looks like a coot, "Pretty, pretty, pretty, and so velly, velly, very good." Was not that a lovely woman who might have had that level? She opened a neat little bag, and as this is public affection, we watched without shame. Quite so, she watched without shame. She a frugal luncheon, and—it's all she can do in Return. Perhaps he cannot it. I have a mystery to her; but would he refuse that biscuit? Not he; he makes an imminent mother and to all his loyal subjects he was ready to be kissed, but she did not like to kiss him. Peace be with thy sly, the Christ child come into thine heart. Two passengers on Baby's left had endured these escapades with patient and suffering dignity. When a boy is profoundly conscious that he is—well, a man, and a man, unkilling, worldly, compostes to treat him—he was well, and his position must protect himself, and assert his position. Which he does, to the delight of everybody with any sense of humor, by refusing to be kissed by his mother or mother, and by very heartily checking any natural tendency to be sooverly checking any natural tendency to be sooverly checking after anything except sport, by allowing it to be understood that he has exhausted the last remaining pleasure and is fairly burnt out. Dear boy, and all the time ready to be a mile to see a cavalry drill, the young man is well, and is being after the Zoological gardens; these are, however, nice little chaps two years ago, and would be manly fellows two years hence. Meanwhile they were provoking and required chastisement or regeneration. Excellently, and so, "old," to be treated with contempt; and when he was in the play of delight over that folly of a law super he had tilted one of the young men's hats, that blase ancient replaced it in position with a bored and weary air. How Baby had been in the situation, I cannot guess, but he was still in the way of his, and suddenly, while they were sustaining or orate, unconcerned, he flung himself back and crowded—yes, joyfully crowded—with rosy, fociund countenance in the whites of the eyes of the two solemnities. One of the two was, and the other looked at him with a smile, and, as if he was at the roof in death, and the other, hopeless for who could resist this bubbling, long, whirlish mirth? One laughs a glad, boyish chuckle, and the other tickles Baby just at the right spot below the chin—has a big heart at home after all, and loves it—de-clarified. The boy was not so jolly little beggar. "Those boys are all right," there is a sound heart below the little affectations, and they are going to be men. This outburst of his majesty cheered us at a mighty, and a young woman at the top of her hand. She was her own hand her hand to him, with a happy smile. Brown gloves, size six and a quarter, and a black hat, but jacket also not of yesterday; but, more made, and in perfect taste. Milk-white teeth, hazel eyes, Greclan profile—what a sombre girl—and let me see, she takes care of her appearance, menting ring; a lucky fellow, for he must be good with those eyes and that merry smile. A teacher, one guesses, and in touch with the river, her life in the city, and the then three sisters that dear woman with half turning gray—will go upon the river, and come home. She will be the content. As soon as he gets a rise in the office they will marry, and she will also gift, as Every woman should. But when I now I—let that baby bear the blame. We had one vacant place, and that was he in intruded on our peace; but let me make him stand on the edge of the pavement and wave your umbrella ostensitiously to a 'bus which passes you and draws up the road' and we walk along a slippery street with hams bent upon your life, to be ordered to hurry up by the impatient conductor and to stop at the bus. For an elderly gentleman of military appearance and short temper it was no soothing, and he might have been execced, word or two, but he distinctly execced. He insisted in language of great directness and simplicity that the conductor had seen him all the time; that if he didn't he ought to have been looking; that he—the colonel—was not a fox terrier, to run after a bus in the mud; that the conductor was an impertinent scoundrel, and that he would have him dismissed, with other things and words unworthy of every retired Anglo-Indian. The sympathy of the two could not go out to him, and when he forced him to go down from the lawyer and Grannite, and, leaning down on the lawy hand, on his cane, glared at us impartially, relations were strained. A cut on his cheek and a briskly white mustache, half-hiding, half-concealing, a cruel mouth, did not commend the new passenger to a peacable company. Baby regarded the old man with sad attention, and at last he indicated that his fancy is to examine the silver head of the colonel's cane. The colonel, after two moments' hesitation, removes his hands and gives him a little arm. On second thoughts, he must have got that. He was still fightin' wonder whether he is a baby. Baby moves the cane back and forward to a march of his own devising, the colonel according as sizing. Now that 1 see it in a way as light, his mustache is soft and sets off the face excellently. Had it not been the cut puckering the corner of the upper lip, that would have been a very sweet mouth for a man, or even for a woman. Baby is not lifted above all human weaknesses—preserve us from perfect people! and he indicates a desire to taste as well as handle Defective Page YOU READ THE APPEAL! THE APPEAL.

It is to be expected, of course, that Democratic congressmen and politicians should be loud in their denunciation of Hon. H. Clay Evans, President McKinley's commissioner of pensions, whom they assert is unfriendly to the old soldier, and the soldier's widow, for the reason that they are desirous of securing the veterans' votes. It may, however, be of interest to these self-constituted champions of the old soldier, as well as to the veterans themselves, to know that during the first three years of Commissioner Evans' administration of the pension bureau, he allowed nearly five thousand more widows' claims than were allowed during the corresponding three years of his Democratic predecessor. During the fiscal years 1894, 1895 and 1896, widows' allowances were 52,958 against 57,848 during 1897, 1898 and 1899. This, too, in spite of the fact that the increase through death of widows of soldiers of the --- S) RICHAI D YAPES Next Governor of Illinois. Civil war is rapidly increasing from year to year. One of the most curious discoveries arising out of census enumeration is that of finding lots of white people in Georgia who never saw a black person. These people live in a circumscribed area, seldom or never leaving home, and then only to go a few miles. Some of the heads of these families returned from the Civil war and, settling there, their children have never been beyond the confines of the county. Butter was worth only 14 cents a pound in the New York market in 1896 and cheese 7 cents. Last year, on the same date, July 1st, butter was worth $17 \frac{1}{2}$ cents, and cheese, $8 \frac{1}{2}$ cents. Factories were busy, people had money to spend, and could afford to buy butter and cheese last year. In 1896 they couldn't. Tammany is anxious to inject a "sweeping reform" cry into the national campaign. At home, in New York, Tammany has to defend itself against its record of the highest taxrate and, for its Tammany ice trust. Reform should begin at home. In 1896, President McKinley said: "I hope that the time will not be far distant when every workingman in this country can get work, and get it, too, at fair and renumerative wages." The time was not far distant, and it is still with us. While the population of the United States has doubled since 1870, there has been an increase of 163 per cent in the number of postoffices in the United States, thus affording 63 per cent better facilities for the delivery of mail to the people. It was a happy thought on the part of the Republicans to invite to this year's National convention the survivors of the first Republican convention, held in Philadelphia in 1856. There will be some hearty cheers given to the veterans. During the coming national campaign much will be heard about the need of an American merchant ma- JAMES A.

June 10.—Two negroes were inched, possibly for one man's crime early this morning at Mississippi City, and it is not absolutely certain that either victim of the man is not a security officer or a seeker. But the busman, held as subjects, were taken out and strung up to a tree in a thicket just behind the railway station. The law-abiding people of this section, while confident of the necessity for the service, did not consider them the dual lycing. District Attorney, Wordman, was promised that the prisoners would be brought to trial on Monday, and yesterday at a mass meeting held at this place the citizens promised to be so short the district attorney in his efforts to to justice the primary manager, Earl; last night Sheriff Namey, 58th District, protect Askew and Russ from mob violence, received them to a bath house. After midnight the mob assembled near the bath house, and the police were working to deputy whom the sheriff had engaged in the process of dragged the two negroes away. The negroes were tied back to back and swung up to the same tree. Their bodies were riddled with bullets, and, after death resulted, were set on the bus.

The Japanese theatre at the St. Paul Carnival, from June 18th to 30th, has one especial novelty. A Japanese juggler lies upon his back and tosses in the air with his feet a little Japanese boy and a barrel, alternating the objects, keeping both the boy and the barrel in the air at the same time. The little fellow seems to enjoy the toss-up. Miss Scottie Davis, the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Addison Davis, enjoys the distinction of being the only Afro-American graduate from Central high school this year. Though she took no special part in the exercises, she was not forgotten by her friends in the distribution of favors. She will enter the State University next term, for the purpose of completing a course. The German village will be one of the notable features of the Midway at the St. Paul Carnival from June 18th to 30th. While refreshments are served at the numerous tables, choice entertainments will be given by star performers. It will be a restful and joyful spot in the Midway, and "Meet us in the German Village on the Midway" will be the shibboleth of the two weeks' carnival. The Midway at the St. Paul carnival, to be given by the Elks from June 18th to 30th, will furnish a series of most attractive exhibitions. The streets of Caliro will always be a novelty to an American audience. They will be a special attraction to children, as an opportunity will be offered for riding elephants, camels and burros. This will suit both old and young, and the children will flock by the thousands to the streets of Caliro. In the streets of India which will be reproduced at the St. Paul Carnival, given on June 18th to 30th, some of the most remarkable features of juggling ever will be witnessed. The juggler will make a tree grow before the eyes of the audience; he makes a polished snake stand on its tail and dance to music; he causes a fifteen-year-old boy to disappear, though he has no stage or apparatus to aid him, and performs various other wonderful features. THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER Thursday were Miss Mae Williams, Miss Josephine Pernell and Mr. Clarence Smith. Miss Williams is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Williams, she is a fine musician and rendered a piano solo—nocturne—as one of the numbers on the program of exercises. Miss Pernell is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Pernell, and Mr. Smith a son of Mr. Booker Smith, took part in "Half Hour with Whittier." All were the recipients of generous applause and floral favors. Willie Douglass, the nine year old boy who has been in the custody of Sheriff Wagener for the past month, was released from the county jail Thursday. His mother agrees to place him in some reformatory institution outside of St. Paul. The boy was arrested about a month ago, charged with firing several barns. The statutes do not permit children under nine years to be committed to the training school at Red-Wing. Willie was nine years old yesterday, and while the court could not commit him, refused to allow him to run at large. The boy was rammed to the jail to wait his 9th birthday with the condition that his mother be allowed to place him in other than a state institution at any time prior to June 15. Among the graduates of mechanics' arts and manual training school was Mr. Henry Craddock Jones, who probably deserves more credit for his work in any other of his class. He came to St. Paul and helped you who from Birmingham, Ala. He at once entered the school, while living with his sister, S. S. M. Hudson, and by carrying a route on the Pioneer Press, together with odd jobs he has supported mother, Mrs. Reedley to support an aged brought here two years ago, and with whom he now lives at 563 Broadway. Contrary to what is said of Afro-Americans by prejudiced persons, he was very good in mathematics, in algebra and geometry he made 100, or perfect. He is undecided as to his future course but desires to enter the State University, though he may take up electrical engineering. Political Foins The situation at central police station remains unchanged. Chief O'Connell is in full charge. Chief Getchell shows up every day, but does not attempt to issue any orders. The new city charter is to be tested by the supreme court. It is understood that John Hammis, formerly jaller, will be appointed to a place on the force, probably with the rank of sergeant. The office of the police commission will be located in the rooms now occupied by the juvenile library on the second floor of the city hall. The Elks Midsummer Exposition and Carnival. The arrangements made by the St. Paul Elks for their Midsummer Exposition and Carnival in St. Paul from June 18th to 30th renders it certain that all visitors will find infinite varieties of businesses. First there will be a main street where there will be several hundred booths with a variety of articles on exhibition, music by bands, and free entertainment by professional performers for four hours each day. It only costs ten cents to gain admission to the stage. The Midway is to be beyond the street display, and there ten distinct shows will be found. The admission, however, to each is but ten cents, so that the whole audience is afforded. Defective Page DOINGS IN AND ABOUT GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

Goodrich of the Twin City Rapid Transit Co. has been superintending some very radical change. The beach at Wildwood has been practically reconstructed. There are new buildings, including a pavilion, much more espacious than the old one, a new depot, new kitchen for the use of picnic parties have been built and new bathing houses to ubi the place of the old one, while the whole bathing spatus has been moved further down the beach to a more avant-gourge position than that occupies for bathing last season. The company has sunk a well eight hundred feet deep which enriches a magnificent supply of water for all purposes. The grounds have been wonderfully improved, stumps pulled out, old unlightly places turfed over, stumps drained and underbrush cleared out of the woods. This positively obeys a dargar of accident to children and others. PERSONALS. Lord Methuen has always been a great believer in plenty of physical exercise.

The occasion was an address by Mrs. J.P.Ruffin of Boston, Mass., who spoke for an audience of women in Milwaukee, an audience and eloquent plea she presented the claims of the women and showed that in the moral and intellectual fitness and not in the color of one's skin lay the requirements for admission to the University.

The large audience applauded the speaker heartily as she told of her purpose to protest against the returning of the dues paid to the national Massachusetts Bra club of Massachusetts, which she delegate. She asserted that Mrs. Love, the presiding officer at Milwaukee, "must have a very short memory, indeed, if she has forgotten, as she claimed, that the banner Afro-Americallie chose the old bay state was formally established membership in the national body." All the successive moves that resulted in the drawing of the color lire at Ridwanke were criticized by Mrs. Ridwanke, the president of the nation." She described many of the leaders at the convention as "hysterical lest the South should secede from the moderation." There were some clever wonders.

Subscriber Who Failed to Notify the Publisher to Stop His Paper. Justice Johnson, of St. Paul, has decided in the case of the Odd Fellow's Review against John Gaffey, that if a subscriber desires to have a paper discontinued to his address, he must first pay the publisher the amount he owns over or subscription, and make a request that the paper be discontinued to his address. The evidence in the case brought forth the facts that Gaffey subscribed and paid for the Review for one year, and that he continued to accept it after his subscription had expired. Later he changed his address without notifying the publisher, and claimed not to have received the paper. This, the court held, was through no fault of the publishers, who received a judgment for the amount due and costs.

The women of the Federation compliments the service of the Plankton dancer both to Mr. W.G. King and Mr. Planktonier. The wife of the Afro-American waiters. The head water of the Plankton returns his thanks to the Chicago head waiters: E. T. Montgomery, P. Early, C. H. Johnson and B. H. Thompson. Never in the history of the city of Milwaukee or of the state of Wisconsin has the color line stirred up such confusion as during the past week so many handmade, red and well dressed women have come to the city few Afro-American baskets have pared enough to have their wives keep up with such people. Never in the history of the Planktonier waiters made so much money in the way of tips. Every day the Southern women were the most likely. Mrs. Josephitee St. Pierce Ruffin was entertained at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hawkins 60-10th street by the following ladies: Mesdames W. H. Hawkins, J. J. Miles, G. Whitman, E. Williams, R. II. Andoree, S. H. Minor, E. Blackwell, A. Therrill Jr., A. V. Raisney, S. H. Robinson and Dr. Julia McNamee. Menu: Consomme a la Ruffin; Myonise of Salmon; Federation patties; Lamb cutlets and green peas; lemon water ice; Italian salad; strawberries and Cream; Swiss cheese; Cake; French coffee; toasted crawlers and Paragon cheese. The table was beautifully decorated. The Evening Journal of the 5th contained an article which was an injustice to the Afro-American waiters of the Plankinton. The article stated that the waiters were on the eve of a strike because the Federation drew the c or line. This is an untrue. Not live of them were aware that there is an Afro-American Woman's Club in this city. Are waiters wiver and daughters eligible to membership? The majority of the people who can earn $8 per week look down on waiters and their families. We are not responsible for Mary the maid and her star chamber proceedings while she had access to Mrs. Lindsey Johnson's rooms. While some may look upon the act as wise, it is condemned by the best people of both races. Only should be honorable in all things. WORDS OF THE WISE. Every man is exceptional.—Emerson. No man is so great as mankind.—Theodore Parker. Shut not thy purse strings always against painted distress.—Lamb. An able man shows his spirit by gentle words and resolute actions; he is neither hot nor timid.—Chesterfield. Despise not any man, and do not spurn anything; for there is no man who hath not his hour, nor is there anything that has not its place.—Rabbi Bala. A man is known to his dog by his smell, to his tailor by the coat, to his friend by the smile; each of these know him, but how little or how much depends in the dignity of intelligence. That which is truly and indeed characteristic of man is known only to God.—Ruskin. Lord, for the erring thought Not into evil wrought; Lord, for the wicked will Betrayed and baffled still; For the heart from itself kept, Our thanksgiving accept. —W. D. Howells. A copy of the premium list for the great Minnesota State Fair of 1900 has been received. It is evident that plans are being perfected upon a larger scale than and it is probable that even the brilliant record of last year is to be eclipsed. The fair will be held September 3 to 8, upon the Hamline grounds, midway between the cities, as usual. If you care for one of these premium lists, send a postal card request to Secretary E. W. Randall, Hamline, Minn., and one will be mailed to you. The premiums and purses offered aggregate over $40,000. The next National Exhibition and sale of Hereford cattle will be held in connection with this fair; the American Shorthorn Breeders' Association joins in holding out unusual inducements to Shorthorn exhibitors; the Minnesota Live Stock Breeders' Association joins in giving rich prizes for feeding animals; the Aberdeen-Angus Breeders' Association offers special prizes also, and with the co-operation of these and other Live Stock organizations, it is confidently expected to make the Live Stock exhibit the most complete and the most instructive and interesting ever seen at a state fair or exposition in this country. There are splendid premiums in the Dairy, Agricultural, Horticultural and Woman's Departments and the Machinery, Honey, Forestry and Mineral exhibits are to be given careful attention. The race programme contains the two guaranteed $5,000 purses again and is rich throughout, while the magnificent evening entertainments, inaugurated last year, are to be continued. State Fair week will be the holiday week of the year. MOST WORSHIPFUL GRAND LODGE Wm. R. Morris, Grand Secretary. 817 Guaranty Bldg., Minneapolis, Minn. PIONEER LONDON, NO. 1. A. F. AND A.
