We affirm that the widespread crime of lynching and intimidating persons accused of lawbreaking, without affording them judge, jury or legal trial, is an offense against civilization which demands punishment, and we believe that it lies in the power of congress to enact such repressive legislation as shall prevent justice in America from becoming a byword and a mockery. Resolved, That we deeply deplore the prevalence of crime in this land. Although we do not believe crime among us is more usual than might justly be expected under the circumstances, yet we recognize the necessity of making it far less frequent than it is, and we heartily condemn the thief, the despoller of homes and the degrader of womanhood, be he white or black, high or low. Resolved, That the attitude of trades unions and nearly all forms of organized labor toward Afro-American workingmen is both shortsighted and cruel. The divine right to work ought not to be taken from a people who have already had so many rights stripped from them. We recommend that a committee be appointed to wait upon the labor leaders and the National Industrial Commission. 1. A company of the imperial body engine and crew at Port Arthur. 2. For 5. Imperial soldier. 6. A gun crew in su mer uniform. and seek by every effort to bring about between white and Afro-American laborers that spirit of fraternity and co-operation which is to the best interests of both. Resolved. That we are heartily grieved that the president of United States and the president of the nation should time to time used their high station to voice the best conscience of the nation in regard to mob violence and the fair treatment of their lives. The right that American citizens should be depolled of life and liberty while the nation looks silently on, or that soldiers should be treated with respect their lives for the country should have their promotion result in practical dismissal from the army. We especially recommend that Afro-Americans enter into business life and seek to become factors in the industrial development of the country, and certainly to extend to mechanics, merchants and inventors all possible aid and encouragement. That the determination of some persons to base the right of suffrage in the South on race rather than on intelligence and property is dangerous to the progress of the nation, the future, and we sincerely trust that the good sense of the nation and the wisdom of its officers of justice should be the further progress of this fatal plan. Resolved, That since we and our fathers and our fathers' fathers were born on American soil, we have bled for American liberty and have toiled for American wealth, it is just and proper that we should enjoy the rights and share the duties of American citizens, and we declare it to be our unalterable resolution to strive by all powers and mankind to vindicate our privileges and fulfill our duties right here in the land of our birth. ADDRESS TO THE NATION Adopted by the National Afro-American Council at Chicago, August 19, 1999, IS99. "We point with pride to the growth and national development of our country, the place she occupies among the sister nations, the proclaims for justice and fair play, and to the doctrine she has announced that she will promote the powers from the consent of the governed." "We congratulate ourselves upon the fact that the Afro-American people have progressed in pride and power, but has always defended her honor when assailed within or by enemies without; when has never been allowed to trail in the dust; that in all the wars in which the nation has been engaged, from Lexington to New York, has proved himself to be a good and valiant soldier and the equal of any in arms, according to his opportunities. "Through all the dark and cruel days of slavery he never raised his hand in the fight, and became a citizen of the United States he has proved himself to be worthy of the conditions in which he finds himself, and no parallel in the history of the world." FROM POVERTY TO AFFLUENCE and ignorant even of the alphabet of the language he attempted to speak; hik- nels, the slave, the slave, the slave, laws and race prejudices born of a pre- gressive 1 5 CHINA PREPARING FOR WAR vious condition and opposed at every step by the sharpest competition of an Anglo-Saxon civilization, he has forged his way to the front, until today there are among us men who stand the peers of any in America. Thirty-six years ago the Afro-American had nothing. Now he owns property amounting to $940,000.00; he has 20,000 graduates from colleges and academies; he has raised $15,000,000 for the education of his people; he raises almost the entire cotton and rice crops of the South, and the greater portion of the sugar cane; he has always been the substantial labor element at the South, and is now doing very commendable work in the factories at the North. "In no instance can it be pointed out that the Afro-Americans have undertaken to interfere with the rights of other people or to molest them in the enjoyment of their freedom." THE GOLDEN RULE HIS GUIDE. "The Afro-American has observed the golden rule in that he conceded unto others what he maintains for himself; he upholds the doctrine taught by the Decuration of Independence as he defends the faith delivered unto the saints. The constitution of the United States is to him the bedrock upon which is founded all true civilization, and he wants it enforced in its entirety. He seeks no special privileges and asks no favors. All he wants is fair play, and this he demands. "He has placed himself in line with the best thought of the present day and he has given his life to present his case to the American people. Having now compiled with every effort to present his case upon him, he asks that that civilization guarantees to him immunity from outrage and that he should be an American citizen and in the enjoyment of his freedom as a member of society.

"The white people of this country claim to superior to the Afro-American, and the African to superiority. The first attribute of a superior nature is its consideration for the slave." "Did the slave trader comply with that condition when he separated husband and wife violated the sanctity of the Afro-American race, babe from his mothers breast and sold him for sordid gold to distant parts? What wrong had the Afro-American done to his mother? Does the Afro-American do him now?" “Another evidence of superiority is ‘to suffer long and be patient.’ Had half the insults and outrages heaped upon the Afro-American people of this country by the whites of a certain section been visited by Afro-American people of that section upon the whites, the land had hardly been able to contain the graves of the dead. For 200 years the Afro-American women of the South were oppressed by the ‘best blood’ of that section, and the mixed blood in our population is largely due to that fact. They were then sowing to the wind and now they are ‘reaping the whirlwind.’” “When the white men were away fighting to dethrought the stars and stripes and to erect in its stead the emblem of the Southern Confederacy we had their women at our mercy and could have their heads asserted itself and not a hair on their heads was harmed. On which side of the balance should superiority be placed? ADVANCE IN EDUCATION. Aro-American had no schools and colleges; today he has fully 200 institutions for higher education; the best colleges and public institutions in which he is permitted to be educated run high up into the thousands. He has demonstrated his capacities in the nursing and the nursing of Northern American he has proved himself in the United States, in our national house representatives, on the bench and before the bar, in the chair as college professors, in the medical profession, in the industrial walks of life, in the arts and sciences as a man of letters, in the medical profession, in the industrial walks of life, in the arts and sciences as a sweet singer the Afro-American has capable of producing the same results as are produced by men of other races. PROUD OF DIEZT, THE ENGINEER. Afro-American man has never been shown to be the inferior. Men look with an innertity displayed in the plan and construction of the Brooklyn bridge. They regard the piece of engineering, but they forget that the first bridge spanning our navigable waters was constructed by an American engineer of the name of Dufort.

(Continued from Fifth Column.) against anybody whomsoever, be he black or be he white, and we pledge ourselves and electors in the United States to protect the bar of justice every perpetuation of wrong and outrage. We appeal to our people on the farms and the south, and wherever they may be found, to duct themselves in their relations among one another and toward the other race to appease the American people of evil doing, and, having done nothing to merit justice and fair treatment, appease unto the American people of the north. America is not with the anti-American. America must make the problem and they must solve it. Afro-American does no lynchning, lynching the lynchers must be brought to termination. They need regeneration and that work must be accomplished by some force or force of force that operates in our civilization at the time. "The country is dripping into anarchy, Day by day the lawless and barbarous of the mob becomes more defiant. But yeah, the mob is so-called best element of Alexandria, Van or standing in their midst, without ordering the arrest of even one man, though he is the least of them, were well known to the mob. The race hatred almost in front of the church where George Washington was wont to worship and under the shadow of the captain a helpless victim, because it was known that he annoyed a little white girl. "This act was not done by the so-called "tough elements in the backwards of George Washington," or in Carolina or in the canebakes of Louisiana, but in the ancient city of Alexandria, on the national capital of the great American state, the inhabitants thereof are frightened by the murdered man now hovers over the city, and sent to Richmond for Winchester, but Winchester cannot shoot to death nor is voiced of injustice crying from the SEES CALAMITY IMPENDING. This is a national sin, and national sins are a punishment, because there is no punishment for nations in the hereafter. How to put them under the theory which should concern the Afro-Americans alone, but it is a condition, confronts the American people, and soothes the civilization will call upon them to meet it. "The lynching of five Italian in the international complications brings about international complications and ought to cause the arrest and punishment of all who were engaged in the perpetration of the international government is known in international law an entity, a state, a sovereign power, persons within its borders on the plan to effect offending protection in a part of the Union and the rest in the union or on its orders to act. That would pervert the law and make the party greater than the other party, confidence in the ability of the government to act in every instance, and confidence in the within the jurisdiction of the United States. THEIR WANTS ENUMERATED. "As American citizens we expect to be treated with respect and recorded other citizens of the republic are we willing to bear our share of the responsibilities. We ask that Afro-Americans be given an equal chance with the whites to fight for their country to share alike the emoluments of victory." "We ask for the appointment of an industrial commission to inquire into the condition of the Afro-Americans in the United States that we be given a fair representation in the taking of the next census of the United States, not only in the clerical force and among the minor employees in the office, but the board of supervisors and among the special agents; that at least one member of our race be appointed on the board of commissioners to the Paris exposition; that a bill be passed by the next congress appropriating $20,000 as an indemnity to the Baker family of Lake City, K. C., and the resources at its command to bring the assassins of Postmaster Baker to justice; that congress be asked to amend the revised statutes of the United States as to place beyond quibbles the authority of the general government to act at once in the case of lynchings. AN APPEAL FOR FRIENDSHIP.

Address, THE APPEAL, St Paul Minn. SATURDAY, JULY 7, 1900. FOR PRESIDENT: WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Ohio. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: THEO. ROOSEVELT, of New York. No political party has ever met under such favorable circumstances as did the Republican national convention in Philadelphia. The unanimous nomination of both the candidates for the offices of President and Vice President was unprecedented. Mr. McKinley has earned, and well deserves, the compliment. The prosperity of the country under his administration alone merits it, without taking into consideration his able conduct of our affairs of state during the war with Spain. PRESIDENT MCKINN EY. J. B. There was a notable difference between the harmony of the Republican party at St. Louis, in the convention of 1896, and at Philadelphia. Last month every Republican was working for the strongest ticket, and there was a unanimous verdict for McKinley and Roosevelt. The latter has endeared himself to the people by his clean and honest administration of such public offices as he has held, as well as by his bravery in Cuba. They are both strong candidates, politically and personally, and will gain in strength as the campaign progresses. Latest advices from Oregon show that the Republican pluralities in this month's elections in that state were larger than at first reported. The Republican candidate for governor had a plurality of more than 10,000, almost exactly the same as it was in 1898. Congressmen, the combined plurality of the two Republican candidates was about 11,500, or 2,000 more than the plurality given to the same candidate in 1898, and fully 10,000 larger than the straight Republican plurality on Congressmen in 1896. It should be remembered also that in 1896 there was no fusion of the opposition vote. --- The Democrats in the North Carowhereas this year all the parties opposed to the Republicans formed as complete a fusion as was ever made. Besides this, Mr. Bryan had made a tour of Oregon a few weeks before the election. Mr. Bryan is the owner of the greatest amount of personal property in the county in which he lives, and the richest man in Lincoln, Neb. This is the record of the assessors' books. Mr. W. R. Hearst, of New York, is one of the millionaires of the country. This aggregation of wealth, combination of capital, or "trusts," as it may be called, should form a strong leadership to the Democratic ticket this fall. The bungheh of the Democratic "barl" will be wide open, and "free silver" should flow at the ratio of 16 dollars for 1 vote. A Missouri farmer lost a $50 diamond ring the other day while engaged in feeding his chickens. During the last Democratic administration the farmers had no diamonds to lose, and precious little feeding to do THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER Ilina legislature have jammed through the bill disfranchising the Afro-American voters.

The exchange of old bonds, under the gold standard law, for new bonds bearing 2 per cent interest, has exceeded $300,000,000, and has so far resulted in a net profit to the government of $8,000,000. When people can afford to buy potatoes the farmer gets better prices for them. That is the reason why last year's potato crop was worth $10,500,000 more than the potato crop of 1895. War is especially distasteful to the Democratic party. In addition to the display of bravery called for it makes higher prices for the products of the American farmer. President McKinley is meeting the troubles in China with that promptness, decision and good judgment which characterized his actions in our war with Spain. The Hon. John R. McLean has retired from Ohio politics and sailed for Europe. Mr. McLean's experience with the Ohio voters was anything but encouraging. Kansas City is the hub of the great prosperity belt. The Kansas and Missouri farmers never were so prosperous. It is not an ideal place for a calamity gathering. Democratic campaign stump speakers are not reminding the farmers that broom corn that sold for $40 a ton a few years ago has been selling recently at $150 a ton. The governor of Missouri has been selected as one of the delegates to the Kansas City convention. He will make a fine object lesson. The corn crop of the United States was worth almost $85,000,000 more last year than in 1895. Montreal, June 8—A telephone message from Grandmother Q., once instilled in Republican Declaration at Philadelphia Indores All McKinley's Acts Stands for Gold—Against Restriction of the Ballot—Assures Cuba pumps, and his right to vote by the premature explosion of a giant firecreater at 3 o'clock inst. The platform as adopted follows. "The Republicans of the United States, the chosen representatives, met in national congress to credit for Tarif and Gold Laws. There is no longer controversy as to the value of the dollar. The Every American dollar is a gold dollar or a silver dollar, but it stands bigger than that of any nation. Its value is everywhere in its occupies. "No single fact can more strikingly tell the story of what Republican government has done in the past 10 years, from during the whole period, to years from ports over imports or only ports over 30 years of the present depopulation during three years of the present depopulation over imports in the overseas exports over imports in the overseas exports over imports." "And while the American people, sustained by this Republican legislation, have been achieving these splendid triumphs in their business and commerce, they have conducted and in victory concluded a war for liberty and human rights. No thought of national aggrandizement tarnished the high purpose with which American standards were unfurled. It was a war unsought and patiently resisted, but when it came to the American government was ready. Its beets were cleared for action. Its armies were in the field, and the quick and signal triumph of its forces on land and sea bore equal tribute to the courage of American soldiers and sailors and to the skill and foresight of the human race, there was given a new birth of freedom, and to the American people a new and noble responsibility." Indorse Ail McKinley's Acts. "We indorse the administration of William McKinley. Its acts have been established in wisdom and in patriotism, and at home and abroad it has distinctly elevated and extended the influence of the American nation. Walking untried paths and facing unforeseen responsibilities, President McKinley has been in every situation the true American, clear in vision, and the upright, man, firm in action, always inspiring and deserving the confidence of his country men." In asking the American people to in-dorse this Republican record and to renew their commission to the Republican party, we believe them of the fact that the government is a property that has always resided in Democratic competition, and no less in the general incapacity of the Democratic party to conduct public affairs. The prime essential of business prosperity is public confidence in the good sense of the government and in its ability to deal with the problems of the new problem of administration and legislation, and confidence the Democratic party has never earned. It is hopelessly inadequate, and the country's prosperity when Democratic success at the polls is announced halts and ceases in mere anticipation of Democraticبلuence and failures. Favo and new parliamentary Legislation. “We renew our privilege to the principle of the gold standard and declare our confidence in the wisdom of the legislation of the LVIth congress, by which the majority of all our money and the stability of our currency on a gold basis have been secured.” “We recognize that Interest rates are a potent factor in production and business activity, and for the purpose of further equalizing and of the present of the rates of interest we favor such legislation as will enable the varying needs of the season and of all sections to be promptly met in order that trade may be evenly sustained, labor steadily employed and the price of the goods increased. The volume of money in径流 increased as never so great as per capita as it is today.” "We declare our steadfast allegiance to the free and unlimited collage of silver, No measure to that end could be considered the leading commercial countries of the world. However firmly Republican legislators against the perils of base and discredited currency, the election of a Democrat the country's credit and to bring once more into question the intention of the American party of the money circulation, the party of their money circulation. "The Democratic party party must be convinced that American workers will never tolerate unfair labor and formal "Favor Laws Against Trusts." We recognize the necessity and propensity of our party to meet new business conditions, and to improve our rapidly increasing trade, trade, trade, and spacieries and combinations intended to limit production or to control prices, and favor such legislation as will effectively protect workers and promote competition and secure the rights of producers, laborers and all who are engaged in industry and commerce. Reciprocity to Aid Labor. “We renew our faith in the policy of protection to American labor. In that policy our industries have been established, diversified and maintained. By protecting the home market the competition has been stimulated and production cheapened. Opportunity to the inventive genius of our people has been secured and wages in every department of labor maintained at high rates, higher now than ever before, always more than ever. We are working in their better conditions of life from those of any competing country. Enjoying the blessings of American common school, secure in the right of self-government and protected in the occupancy of their own markets, their constantly increasing knowledge and skill have enabled them finally to enter the markets of the world. “We favor the associated policy of reciprocity, so directed as to open our markets on favorable terms for what we do not ourselves produce in return for free foreign markets. On Immigration and Convict Labor. “In the further interest of American workmen, we favor a more effective restriction of the immigration of cheap labor from foreign minds, the extension of the Immigration Act, the application of the Immigration Act, the raising of the age limit for child labor, the protection of free labor as against contract conflict labor and an effective system of labor insurance. To Protect Home Shipping. The foreign cargo shipping for the tenth century of our foreign carrying is a great loss to the industry of the United States, and it is to our trade, for its sudden withdrawal in the event of European war would seriously cripple our expanding foreign commerce, and would be a great loss to this country, moreover, supply a compass reason for legislation which will enable us to trade with the trade-carrying fleets of the world. "The nation owes a debt of profound gratitude to the soldiers and sailors who will continue to provide the document's duty to provide for the survivors and for the widows and orphans of the war. The neason laws, founded in this just sentiments should be liberal and not restrictive. The defence should be given wherever practicable with respect to employment in the foreign cargo shipping and sailors and to their widows and orphans. Civil Service in the Islands.

We believe that employment should be maintained to prevent discrimination on account of race or territories should be confined as far as possible to the electorate. Against Restriction of the Ballot. "It was the plain purpose of the fifteenth amendment to prevent discrimination on account of race or territories to be legislated the elective franchise. Devices of statutory or constitutional enactment are revolutionary and should be used to public movements looking to a permanent way of the country meet with our cordial ways, and we recommend this subject to the House of Representatives and of the legislatures of the several." "We favor the extension of the rural fire service wherever its extension may be justified. Arid Lands and New States." "In further pursuance to the constant policy on the public lands we we recommend adequate national legislation to restrain illegal migration to the respective states and territories." favor home rule for and the early admissions of New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma.

So ample are the public confidence in the integrity of its government that it is now funded 2 per cent of its country is now justified in expecting and implementing a republican party to bring about a reduction in taxes. Favor an Isthmian Canal. "We favor the construction, ownership, protection of an islamist canal by the government, our farm products. New markets are necessary for the industry. We offer our farm products. Every effort is made to obtain new markets, especially in the orchard and the administration is warmly欢迎 all trading and colonizing to commit all trading and colonizing to the policy of the open door in China. "In the interest of our expanding commerce, we urge the government to create a department of commerce in the charge of a secretary with a seat in the cabinet should be recognized under supervision of this new department upon its department and tenure as will render it still more important to the nation's increasing trade. "Protected. "The American government must protect the person and property of every citizen in the nation who are wrongly violated or placed in peril. “We congratulate the women of America upon their splendid record of public service in the Volunteer Aid association and as nurses in camp and hospital during the recent campaigns of our armies in the Eastern and Western Indies, and we appreciate the contribution of the Association in all works of education and industry.” “President McKinley has conducted the foreign affairs of the United States with distinguished credit to the American people. In releasing us from the vexatious condition of a European alliance for the government of Samoa his course is especially to be commended. By securing to our aid the support of the United States in the Island of the Samoan group and the best harbor in the Southern Pacific every American interest has been safeguarded.” On Hawaii and the Boers. “We approve the annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to the United States.” “We commend the part taken by our government in the peace conference at The Hague. We assert our steadfast adherence to the policy announced in the Monroe doctrine, which provides a保障 when President McKinley tendered his friendly office in the interest of peace between Great Britain and the South African Republic While the American government must continue the policy prescribed by Washington, affirmed by every succeeding president and imposed upon us by The Hague treaty, of non-intervention in European controversies, and the support of the United States.” “We may soon be found, honorable alike to both contending parties, to terminate the strife between them.” As to Cuba and Philippines. “In accepting by the treaty of Paris the just responsibility of our victories in the Spanish war the president and the senate won the undoneed approval of the American people. No other course was possible than to destroy Spain's sovereignty throughout the West Indies and in the Philippine Islands. That course created our responsibility before the world, and with the unorganized population whom our intervention had freed from Spain, to provide for the maintenance of law and order, and for the establishment of good government, and for the performance of international obligations. Our authority could not be less than our responsibility, and wherever sovereign rights were extended it became the high duty of the government to maintain its authority, to put down armed insurrection and to confer the blessings of liberty and civilization upon all the rescued people. The largest measure of self-government consistent with their welfare and our duties shall be secured to them by law.” “To Cuba independence and self-government were assured in the same voice by which war was declared, and to the letter this pledge shall be performed.” “The republican party upon its history and upon this declaration of its principles and policies confidently broke the considerate and approving judgment of the American people.” AT PARIS. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE APPAREL The most appropriate addition to the Ato-America exhibit at Paris and one of the fine bronze statues of the Hon.

The Eckstein Norton University is situated at Cane Spring, Ry., twenty-nine miles from Louisville, Ky., in one of the most healthy and quiet settlements in the state—the county being what is known as a prohibition county for many years. The building and grounds are on a lofty hill of rich, rolling land, surrounded on all sides by mountain streams, dashing miniature castacles, high mountains, peopled with timber of many varied species. In this quiet retreat away from the bustle of city life, free from the unhealthy seductions and ailurements of places of vice and unwholesome amusements, one finds study easy, recreation helpful, and the physical powers developed and seemed. All this plays no important part in a student's life, and is aptly suited to all who desire to prepare for an active life. DEPARTMENTS.

The greatest feat of modern civilization is the modern newspaper. This thought comes to mind almost every day as we take from its wrapper The Minneapolis Tribune. It is simply astounding how much in the way of information and fact, as well as intelligent comment one can buy for a cent—new and fresh every day. There is something to be said about The Tribune which probably is un- true of any other Twin City daily. It is consistently and persistently Republican. The Tribune never goes off after false gods nor do the flesh pots of office or the allurements of gain ever swerve it from its support of the right. At the same time, it is modest in its efforts to shape policy and the selection of candidates for office. It may be understood, however, from the fact that The Tribune is in no sense an organ that is a newspaper—with the acceptor input. No doubt this accounts for its overtopping circulation. When a paper in Minnesota averages for an entire year over 50,000 circulation, as the Tribune did (50,185 for the year ending March 31, 1900), it is going to more people, considering the number of people within its field, than any paper we know of. There are more kinds of people in HISTORICAL COSTUME is the building erected for the display a chronological display of costumes curren CAL COSTUMES lected for the display of dress good play of costumes currrent in France's Minnesota interested in the dog in The Tribune's daily cartoon than in any other one daily creation. These cartoons are inimitable funny, and at the same time full of good sense. They drive home a witty thrus, when a number of editorial might glance off ineffective. The Tribune has recently moved into its new mobile front building, of which it is justly credited. It said to be without exception the finest and most up-to-date in America. No money has been spared to make it so and the paper tells on its face that it is the product not only of the best mechanical facilities, but the best esapeapal brains and character in the Northwest. We feel like saying to others "Too the mark with The Minneapolis Tribune."

Two burlesques will be presented, both replete with comical situations and showing the superb figures of the young women to the best advantage, while the shapely girls will also appear in a new series of artistic pictures and an Oriental pasmala. The specialty will be of standard quality, embracing seven members, two of the best of which will be the turn done by the Eldridges, long noted as the best colored team in the country, and the slug-ling of Joseph Gomes, a noted tenor; also the naughty Parisian, "The Girl in Blue."

The fifteenth annual Sunday School Convention of the Chicago District. A M. E. Church, met at Aurora, Ill., June 27-29. This convention was made up of Sunday school workers of the thirty-two schools in the district, presided over by Rev. Geo. W. Gaines. These Sunday schools are under the direct supervision of a district superintendent, who has power to appoint deputies. It would be unfair to give special mention to any part of the program, since every part was so well carried out. Every paper was of the highest order and reflected credit upon the convention as well as upon the author. The reports of the Sunday schools showed that a year of earnest work had been done. Every Sunday school, without exception, showed great improvement, while it recognized room for yet greater improvement. More money was raised, more members galmed and more converts added to the church than any previous year. On the last day the officers were reelected unanimously: W. H. Twiggles, District Superintendent; Mrs. A. E. Woodson, Secretary, Chicago; Miss Georgia Richie, WANTS HER SHARE Mrs. Hester Morrison Will Try to Get Some of Her Father's Estate. Lawyer W. G.

Later he paid more attention to politics and other matters, and lost the best of his chenteles. About two months ago Dr. McCallister struck with paralysis and shortly after was removed to his staircase in Evansville, where he died. He left an estate of $23,000. Subscriber Who Failed to Notify the Publisher to Stop His Paper. Justice Johnson, of St. Paul, has decided in the case of the Odd Fellows' 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 owes for 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. THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER SCOTLAND WOOLEN MILLS CO.

That the injured girl throw sticks and stones at the dog several months before she was bitten furnished no excuse. The only defense furnished is that the doing of an unlawful act, at the time of the attack, by the person injured." OMAR RESUNG.

To such schools will be assigned, who are careless or willfully neglected, who are careless or willfully neglected of their lessons, and who are irregular in gathering into classes of not more than twenty-five or thirty each and be under the claw of their ability to deal with such children. Hot Steam for Train Robbers. Every locomotive that is built in the West nowadays has the new anti-bandit attachment. On all the new engines of the Denver & Rio Grande railroad are iron pipes extending along the roof of the cab and connecting with the boiler. Through these pipes without making a perceptible motion, either the engineer or fireman can send, under 200 pounds pressure, a Jet of steam and boiling water that would effectually cook anything living that happened to be on the tender or the front end of the baggage car. The diameter of the pipe is one and a half inches and a single second would drop any man who tried to stand before it in action. The steam leaves the pipe at a temperature of about 750 degrees, hot enough to have the toughest of outlaws cooked by the time the train could be brought to a standstill. It will be a specialty of those gentlemen who make a specialty of holding up engineers from the tender. Tramps are fighting shy of this railroad. Cincinnati Commercial Tribune.
