The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: It is the organ of ALL Afro-American It is not controlled by any ring or clique It asks no support but the people's VOL. 16. NO. 31. Berkley, Cal., Special, June 23—America has appeared in the international arena just in the nick of time. By reason of the power and influence exerted by the United States on China will remain open. The powers of the old world may stand aloof and glare at each other, all watching jealously any attempt on the part of one of them to overthrow the United States, or of them will venture to make the first move so long as the United States holds the balance of power. Not one of the powers of the United States will East and ready to welcome any break that will relieve the almost unbeatable tension is willing to offend the United States. So we stand, arbitrators of the desideration scales up or down at our will, every nation knowing this is seeking our friendship and desiring above all things that we throw the weight of our power over the scales on which their fortunes are east. Fateful are the issues towards which we are drifting in the East. Eastern Asia is to be assimilated to the rest of the world, broken down and the East to be the West and the West East. All the aggressive nations are reaching out towards the goal. England holds the route by the sea, and the French is allied it by a railroad to the head of the Persian gulf. While outwardly these two great nations are professing the most closely related rulers are exchanging messages of peace, both are jealously watching each other and for every move one makes the other speedily plans and executes the strategy to nullify the advantage that the play wins. It is continually check and counter-check between Germany and Great Britain, the players smiling in each other's faces while the other is dejected in their means of offense and defense according to the notions of each. It remains for the tussel of war to determine whether Germany's railroad or England's canal will be the best means to present that they have the game in their hands and both have the same ambition in view, the prize in the Orient is to be broken down into the mouth of some advanced power. And Russia? What does the wily and ever aggressive bear do these days to keep up with the procession that begins in the city? Russia and nation stretches towards China? Russia is pushing out by the Siberian railway and will soon be found seeking, in conflict with German interest, a route across Persia, and, in conflict with English influence, to the south. Russia is an interesting complication. Whichever way one wishes to view it the nations of Europe are pursuing, not the parallel lines that, continued to infiltr will never be defeated. Russia will land them all, sooner or later at the one center where the clash would seem to be inevitable, even though it did not come during the operations making for the ultimate victory. Russia's contingency that seems not improbable when the conflicting interests of each nation and the way these interests cross the border with the chess board-of Asia are considered. Latest of all, and none too soon, the United States has awakened to its capabilities as an exporting nation, and the United States has become a Pacific coast to the Atlantic suddenly develop into routes to the Orient. The Union Pacific, the Suez canal, the Siberian Sea, and the Panama Canal America should come out in the lead in this race for the vast undeveloped markets of the far East. Challenging the world to surpass our products as we do, the United States should push out of our superior workmanship, superior push and wealth of resource, we should, and undoubtedly will, play a winning part in the Oriental trade rivalry of the white It is incontrovertible that which is to convert China from the old into the new is manufactured iron in the form of machinery and rails. From every foundry and workshop in America, the sound of the machine is the source of blast furnace bespeaks ability to supply from our infinite storehouse the very best articles of this kind that can be found the world over. China is discovering it rapidly. Japan found it out long ago, and the Chinese were the first to build machinery are being demanded almost as fast as our workshops can supply them. The American mechanic, who is a thinking workman instead of a mere machine, is acknowledged to have no peer on earth. His work speaks for itself in the public interest. The fact that China is abroad for American machinery and rails. This fact being indisputable, what benefit do we derive from trade walls and spheres of influence? No interest concerns America more to-day than the pre-war world. The Chinese were not to be German, French and Russian occupation might build about the Chinese coast. Secretary of State Hay has won a victory, not of war, call it diplomacy. If you please, in that the ports of China will be open to the country world. It is not the country sphere of influence in the Flowery Kingdom. Customs tariffs will be abolished, as well as other imposts upon shipping. With the ports free and a free hand to every nation, the consummation of the British fortunes will be made by the strong, strong an advocate in Lord Beresford. America's day of victory is at hand. A free hand is all we want to place us far in advance of all other nations in the competition of the world's products. We could not wish for a more suitable culture to be made. We would not wish for a world nation, for this ensures our possession of the prize. The throwing down of walls is all in our favor. The nations of Europe realize this, but they are so jealous of each other that I verily believe they would welcome the sight of the world. The world is the right to that that the Americans will do so is, in my judgment, a foregone conclusion. Newport, jut 7, j 20—While members of the summer colony here always have observed peering on the beach in bathing, attire at the prescribed hour in the morning, the sport is now the members of the exclusive set will "swipe this season instead of making a pretense and enjoy the sport instead of observing profusely a whim of Dame Pashion's. One of the leaders, who always has hands, have recently told us: "This modu- nation is going to be a great one." SERGE DE WITTE MATILDA DE WITTE ADOLPH ROTHSHEIN clation of women, as you are also pleased to call it, permits us to enjoy many health-giving pastimes from which we were barred previously. In course, popular opinion is always has permitted us to do things that could come in with us when we were utterly unable to move, than stand and be buffeted by the breakers. Now, with suits that allow perfect freedom of motion, we enjoy our daily dip in the sea and gain all possiblity to be left from a small one. "Time was when it was considered a girl's sole duty to look pretty. If she had been born so, and if she had not, to cultivate all the graces possible in her artificial surroundings. Under no conditions was she supposed to betray any elution in the way of the casual, and in pastimes or pursuits which would betray the fact that she possessed what she was pleased in those days to call 'lower limbs.' Fortunately times have changed and the conditions which imposed these functions have changed. The change in the condition of life is very likely to be viewed with satisfaction, for all save a few antiquated fault finders, who probably would find as much to object to in the old ideas, did they exist today, as they do in the new order of things. The girl's light has shown that their ability in all this light has formed of physical exercise and in some of the games requiring nerve, skill and strength. No one form of athletes requires the presence of all these qualities to the degree that swimming does, and no exercise MATTE DE WIT more fully repays the exertion by the bestowal of health, strength and vigor. In swimming costumes, the more important is the more paddlers may wear a costume, the elaborateness of which would be a nuisance and an annoyance to the swimmer; the poor swimmers may content themselves with an ordinary suit, which may be bought in any store, but the real swimmer, who does not permit perfect freedom of motion, will dislain any suit which does not permit perfect freedom of motion. Such a swimmer will select a Jenson suit, his arms, will dislain any suit which does not permit perfect freedom of motion. This costume should be sleeveless, with the skirt cut the knees. Thus attire the sport may be indulged in without any inconvenience. "No woman ever should undertake to be a swimmer without seeking advice from a professional. Not not bathing would be beneficial to her. Most of the accidents which occur each time to the omission of this precaution. "Over confidence is another fruitful cause of accidents. No woman, even the most expert swimmer, should swim out to sea half as far as the whole distance she can accomplish. The return will be more tiring and the swimmer will not be able to swim." "A swimmer should not remain in the water too long-usually twenty minutes in a watercraft for a long enough, but she should not remain even for that length of time if she feels cold or tired in the leash. An observance of these few warnings will make it possible to enjoy to the full this fascinating pastime." The American girl has demonstrated her athletic ability by cycling, golf, cricket, hockey and basketball—even on the baseball diamond she has behaved creditably. Now the girl has earned the Gold of aquatic sport she probably will demonstrate her pre-eminence there also. THE APPEAL. Beautiful Girl, Born Peasant, Who Becomes a Millionaire and Is Exiled—A Remarkable Episode in the Career of Adolph Rothstein, Whose Recent Visit to this Country was a Matter of Interest in the Financial World. F all the episodes in the remarkable career of Adolph Rothstein, the illustrious Russian banker whose visit to this country has attracted future fame as the country's minister of finance. Now De Witte is known as one of the great men of Europe. He is linked with the great plans for internal development to one whom he befriended. And so the former peasant became an element to reckon with in Russian finance. Among the securities with which she in Europe, the most stirring arrows out of his association with a woman. She is an extraordinary woman—beautiful enough to have fascinated men of genius, clever enough to have made a huge force in decapitation, dangerous enough to be exiled to the shores of the world. is the wife of M. de Witte, the Russian minister of finance, the man who regenerated his country's credit, who enjoys the earl's confidence to a greater extent than any other statesman, and to whom no hands closer than Adolph Rothstein. DA IF Boyd L. H. Kearns The story of how Mme. de Witte and Adolph Rothstein entered into a partnership on strictly business principles to swell the lady's bank account is no dry matter of finance. It is a thrilling tale of court of finance. It is of an important railroad and the suburban minister were only marrowly averted in the sequel, according to the court gossips. For such stories in Russia one is obliged to depend on the court gossips. Publicity is not the only source of politics. Politics is none of the people's business. The newspaper print what they are told, and nothing more, on pain of Siberia for the editors. So this episode in the life of Adolph Rothstein has never been published in Russia, although it is talked about guardedly at court and in the clubs. Her heroine of the story, though of beautiful appearance, was born a peasant, she spent her girlhood obscurely in Moscow. They called her Matilda. History stops with that. She took her first step up the ladder when she capitulated a substantial tradesman and switched, and in time they were married. Exalted as her position was as com- piled to her former state, her amit- milation to the war effort was a witch to move to St. Petersburg. In the capital she found a wide field for her beauty and wit, and became an adept in the use of the weapons in the armory of womanhood. She degrees her fame mounted until it was over. She became the divinity of De Witte. He was plain Serge Witte then, but, although he had not yet reached the zenith of his power, he was recognized as one of the great men of the empire, and had cast before him the shadow of his future fame as the casts minister of finance. Now De Witte is known as one of the great men of Europe. He is linked with the great plans for internal development which have made Russia the wonder of a century closing years. But for the moment a luxury of finance. He was simply a man in love. De Witte was just as much in earnest as Lissanewitch had been. Nothing short of absolute possession would content his love. The husband, prudently recognizeth the forces arrayed against him, proved successful in a little present of 25,000 roubles ($12,500) and permitted his spouse the luxury of a divorce. Matilda of Moscow became Mme. de Witte. How far her genius helped her SEPGE DE WITTE ADOLPH ROTHSIL brilliant husband to mount, the remaining rungs of the ladder of success may only be conjectured. At all events, there was a man who cared for her, carrina herself did not exert more influence over the destinies of the empire than dark-eyed Mme. de Witte. The empire was wealth. She longed to be the richest woman in Russia, as well as the most influential. Her eyes fell upon Adolph Rothstein, who was fighting his way to the forefront in the world of finance, and she perceived that he could win for her that which she desired. Rothstein was a German who, after valuable schooling in an English banking house, had become renowned as a broker. Rothstein's Russian bank notes had led to his engagement* at a high salary by the International Bank of Commerce in Russia. In course of time, according to a narrative in the New York World, he acquired the bank and managed it with so much skill that it has been identified with all Russia's important financial moves in recent years. He also organized the Russo-Chinese bank, which is a control factor in the Russian economy. Now, now a member of the imperial council of the treasury of the Russian empire and governor of the Imperial Bank of Russia. Advised by the banker, it is said, mannequin speculated on an immense scale. By a single coupon she won $5,000,000, while other smaller transactions running over a period of ten years netted her fully twice that sum. It is presumed that Rothstein, whose position forbade him to sell his banknotes, was yet able to give many good points Defective Page to one whom he befriended. And so the former peasant became an element to reckon with in Russian finance. Among the securities with which she dealt was the stock of the Moskow-Yaraslavsky bank, which was valuing to her speculations, lost over $10,000,000. Of the losers the heaviest was M. Mamontoff, the president of the road, who was left with a debt of $3,500,000. For the purpose of fortune in a Christian spirit. He went to the car and told him the whole story, laying particular emphasis on the part played in it by the wife of the trusted minister of the ruler of all the Russians fell into tow. De Witte, learning of Mamontoff's action, hastened to his imperial master GREAT FOLKS TO LOVE QUESTA GREAT FOLKS TO LOVE QUESTA DIN order to patch trims up as best he could. Admission to the presence of the cxar was refused him. The minister was in despair. Suddenly, a tiny contemplated sieve, even with a small habitable arrangement somehow and De Witte was restored to favor. But the beautiful Matilda had this time gone too far. One of the stipulations was that she should remove herself from the realms of the cxar and stay removed. She now a souvenir in Nice. She deals in considerable comfort in a handsome villa, while for spending money she has a few millions left over from her speculations in Russia.

Not only will the peaches be plentiful, but they will be large and deep, belled to rolls, the pieces of the good grower, has almost entirely disappeared, and the small, knotty fruit, which in years past will not be seen this season.-Baltimore American. Paris, Special Correspondent, June 1-4. Pictorially the Paris exposition may be a sight for the gods, but to the plain sight-seller, it must be confessed, there are disappointments. The advantage that the artist and the photographer who levelled his canvases with the early stages of the work of building the exposition, had over the visitor who sees it to-day is that the buildings are so crowded together, so hidden and almost lost in the general jumble that their individual beauty is cloaked and those who are interested in the underdrawn rather than overdrawn the gorgeousness of the picture are conscious of a sense of resentment against some one. The late comers will be the best off and the best pleased, for the putting of overestering "finishing touch" on the exposures and progressing after the lesiously manner in which everything is done here. The grumblers are mostly the Americans. The Europeans, and especially the French visitors, are delighted with everything, or affect to be apparently they can close their eyes to the fact that all Americans are and unlikely soon to be and make the same. After all there is so much that is interesting that the shortcomings should not E. R. H. 1910 stand out with glaring prominence. That more could visitors desire than to sit and lazily listen to the music discourses by it. It makes amends for the disappointment of the wheels moving at the American building. The Americans came over brimful of expectancy and pride over the wonderful showing that the machinery of the United States was to make at the exposition the wheels going to open the eyes of the old world visitors to the exposition with their magnificent machinery, en route for the exposition gates at the opening he had explained to any one interested that the motion would be the most remarkable at the fair. And they arrived to find that the bulk of the machinery was still on the cars waiting the opportunity to be unloaded, and that the power that moved the wheels of the exposition was not in motion would be the most remarkable time, so that, even though the French workmen could be induced to hustle the exhibits into place by working double time, the machinery would still stand silent and motionless for want of power. The motion would not be confessed, is robbed of more than half its attractiveness. The chief hardship of this backwardness falls, of course, on the visitor, whose time is limited and who has chosen, or been obliged to seize, the opening month for his or her vacation, instead of waiting for the more propitious time when the exhibits will have shaken into shape, the permanent American company and the residents of Paris can afford to wait and these are satisfied with everything it is stands. As they point out to the discontented ones, there is much that is finished. $2.40 PER YEAR. that possesses a wealth of interest. Old Paris is worth a day's study in itself. This feature of the exposition, in which the city is dark and uncomfortable period that usually referred to by writers who wish to round off a sentence as the "gold old days," acquires its chief attractiveness when it affords the city its affords of the discomforts of other days and the satisfaction of living in a country and in an age that boasts of all the modern improvements. The visitors from abroad through Old Paris and congratulate themselves on being born several centuries after that variety of town had ceased to exist. The Swiss village, with its quaint streets and attracts thousands daily, and is a favorite rendezvous for sightseers who are not particularly interested in the purely industrial features of the exposition. The city is much more in favor with the general run of visitor than the beautiful and the useful, and as sculpture and machinery. It is a huge crowd around the Oriental islands and the admiration that is showcased upon the low-roof, pagoda-shaped structures of the Chinese quarter exceed that reserved for the splendid buildings housed the exhibits of the great nations. Many of the American visitors were present at the Chicago fair and it is difficult to get them to go into paroxysms of delight in which those to whom a great exposition is a new thing indulge at the sight of the buildings and the magnitude of the fair. But the side shows are attractive to the most blase sightseer and the fair here has more than enough of these to satisfy the most exacting taste. There is no particular spot in which the sights of the "midway" can be seen, as at Chicago. The features that have been named "midway sights" ever since the days of the Chicago fair are to be seen in all sorts of odd corners at the exposition. They divide the honors with the freakish "idea exhibits," the good old, Effel, tower and the Russian pavilion, which is a great favorite and where excellent music draws large crowds. Later, this will be but a small attraction for the American exhibit will be in full swing and Americans predict that other sights will be dimmed. It is a pity though that the swing could not have begun coincidently with the swinging open of the exposition gates. Baker's Premium Coffee pictures are suitable for the finest walls. They are reproduced in colors and mounted on dark mats. 10 VICTIS. I sing the hymn of the conquered, who fell in the battle of life. The hymn was founded, the beaten, who disswelmed in the strike; Not the puillant song of the victors, for whom the resounding acclaim Of the great war was the glory, whose brown wove the chaplet of fame— But the hymn of the low and the humble, the veery, the broken in heart, Whose youth bore no flower on its branches, whose hopes burned in ashes away, From the hymn of the complacent, who has grasped at, who stood at the dying of day, With the work of their life all around them, With death, who has, for their failure, and all but their faith overthrown. While the voice of the world shows its chorus, its face for those who have won; While the trumpet is sounding triumphant, and high to the breeze and the sun Gay banners are waving, hands clapping, and Taying after the larel-crowned victors— Stand on the field of defeat. In the hymn of the complacent, who are fallen, and wounded, and dying—and there Chant a requiem low, place my hand on their pain-knotted brows, breathe a prayer. Hold the hand, and whisper, "They only the victory win Who have fought the good fight and have vanquished the demon that tempts us within; Who have fared, who have been so by the prize that the world holds on high; Who have cared for a high cause to suffer, resist, fight—if need be, to die." Speak, history! Who are life's victors? Unselfy long annals and say Are there those who were and called the victors, who won the success of a day? The martyrs of Nero? The Spartans who felt at Thermopylae's try? Or the Perseans and Xerxes? His judges on Socrates? Plato or Christ? —W. W. Story. When a policeman is on duty in Peking he keeps up a regular beating upon it. Whether officials know that he is on duty or to arrest him, they are not sure. One get out of this way is not definitely known. Bing men like voices of all descriptions, and that drama and tom-toms on all occasions. Bing men carry drama to announce their coming and be beheaded for their crimes. In some of the cities domestic pigeons have light whistles tied to their tails, which give forth a loud sound as they fly. Hearken, all ye editors, and light shy of Servia! One paper in that little European realm has had sixteen editors within the past two years, and all of them but the present wielder of the trenchman quill are in jail for committing too freely on legislative enactments. The opportunity for making political capital in China is so great that even Mr. Hamid has not resisted the temptation. Mr. Hamid has not long enough to announce that he will send a force to co-operate with the powers in chastising the pigtails. Thomas B. Reed, it is asserted, has been forbidden to speak officially for the Republican party this year. If he must talk, however, he might learn something to his interest by corresponding with Mr. Bryan. Isn't it about time for official Prophet Grosvenor to crawl out of his hole and give us a few figures? The instructions to lag sadly if the bewkshiered pharmacist from Ohio doesn't peep soon. That an aged colored woman has just passed away in Kentucky who knew with whom merely calls up the thought as to what she will be recalled the most one hundred years from now. The empress dowager shows some of the traits with which she has been accustomed, and that she would remain in her palace until she "bathed in foreign blood." THE ACCURATE THE APPEAL.

FOR PRESIDENT: WILLIAM McKINLEY, of Ohio. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT: THEO. ROOSEVELT, of New York. GOD IS NOT DEAD. We do not hope to say anything which has not already been said in reference to the outrageous affair which occurred last week in New Orleans, yet we hope to give some the gratification of knowing we agree with them. We have no desire to uphold crime and criminals of any color, nationality or class, but we claim that under the constitution of the country every person accused of crime is entitled to a fair and impartial trial by a jury of his peers, and we con- M. To-day the powers are struggling for supremacy in the East.

CHINA CHINA'S LITTLE GAME—Now you see it and now you don't. demn mob law under any and all circumstances. Self preservation is the first law of nature, and the hunted men, criminals though they may have been, did no more than hundreds and thousands have done before them. The worst crime those men were guilty of was being born black. This, however, they were not responsible for, any more than their murderers were for being born white. And that it is not right for one's white brother to kill his black brother, just because he is black, every MAN must admit. Just think of it! Because a black man, driven to bay, had the nerve to slay his pursuers in a vain endeavor to escape, every black person that came in sight was shot down like a dog or maltreated in some way. The whole world is in an uproar now, because a few foreigners have been, or are supposed to have been, murdered by the Chinese, heathen, who know not God. But white Christians—God save the mark—in a so-called Christian land-out-rival their Mongolian brothers in the atrocity of their acts. The whites, while claiming to be the personification of all that's good, noble, just, etc., etc., prove themselves the opposite when their black brothers are in question. The Chinese did very wrong to murder the legationers, and they should be held strictly accountable for their acts, and the same rule holds good in New Orleans. Yet, while this country is both ready and willing to plunge into war with China, and, in the event of war, will call upon the black men to uphold it, as they have ever done since the revolution, we will be very much surprised to ever hear of anyone being punished for the outrageous murdering of innocent blacks just because they were black. The condition of the black man in this country is very deplorable and is constantly getting more so. We cannot foresee the end. We won't attempt to prophesy, but we cannot refrain from using the word of Sojourner Truth: "God is not Dead." The Democratic leaders are unable to point to one act of the Republican Congress that is inimical to public interests. Unlike its Democratic predecessors it didn't take orders from the Havemeyers and other trust magnates. Boss Croker snarls and makes a cheap bid for votes by declaring his THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER NEW ORLEANS MOB VIOLENCE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULDN'T THROW STONES, objection to American troops fighting under an English admiral. He would probably prefer to witness the murder of American citizens. Bryan may be too busy to talk about the ratio, but his opponents may be depended upon to remind him of it PEOPLE WHO LIVE about twenty-five times a day from now on to the idees of November. Wages have been higher during the last few years than ever they were before in the United States. And this was the period when the largest number of trusts were formed. Indiana friends of the Democratic Imperialistic candidate are forming Bryan Soldiers' clubs to "hoop" up martial patriotism for the Nebraska Colonel. The Republicans will be satisfied with nothing less than a majority of 300,000 in the State of New York this fall, and they feel confident of securing it. The Kentucky Democrats indorsed Goebel in their platform, but took very good care to shelve his principal accomplice in the Gubernatorial theft. Mr. Sulver has been telling of the many things Mr. Bryan will do when he is president. Mr. Sulzer is continually exercising his imagination. The Philadelphia platform is such an acceptable document that there is naturally a little good-natured rivalry over its authorship. Monopoly is impossible in this country unless it be enjoyed through a patent issued by the United States. " "Save the Republic," shouts Mr. Bryan, and then adds, sotto voice, "I am the Republic." Mr. Towne now realizes just why he was nominated. The Tammany ice box will cut somewhat of a figure at the ballot box. So will the ice trust in Chicago. Protection for American citizens abroad may always be relied upon under a Republican administration. IN GLASS HOUSES SHOULD AT PARIS. SECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE AP BAL, FM ARTIF GOURREPONDENT Paris, France, July 25, 2001—The main entrance to the Dahomey Village is through the "tata", an odd-shaped building with a high tower and porch surrounding it. At the entrance is a native in soldier dress and a brown beige body suit side. This building is thatched with a kind of heavy straw and is quite indicative of the native abodes of these people. A little to the right is a low building of crude workmanship and architecture in which are engaged several natives busily at work making the Dahomey weaving cloth, operates with his feet two treadle pieces, which work the shuttle back and forth, and with the assistance of his shrivelled-like fingers, slowly turns out a narrow strip of cloth. The buildings are imitations of their thrones and altars of sacrifice, with their many odd gods. The native hut, built over an artificial pond and surrounded by a group of natives, gives the visitor a good idea as to how they live in Dahomey. The Dahomey hut brings to mind Bob Cole and his song "In Dahomey." Smiles—What are you doing for living now, old man? Giles—Breathing. "Johnny, you talk too much."

"No, ma'am," replied Jane, "not until you called the third time, ma'am." Mrs. Podmore—I think you had better go for the doctor, George; Johnny complains of pains in his head. Podmore—it's nothing serious. He has MIDGET WHEELMAN had them before. Mrs. Padmore—Yes, but never on a half-holiday. "Oh, we had the loveliest arrangement at our church society last week! Every woman contributed to the missionary cause $25, which she earned herself by hard work." "How did you get yours?" "From my husband." "I shouldn't call that earning it yourself by hard work." "You don't know my husband." Applicant—I see you advertise for a window dresser. Milliner—Yes, sir. Have you had much experience? "I arranged the window display in the shop I worked in last, and every woman who passed stopped and looked in." "That's something like. You're just the man we want. By the way, what line was your firm in?" "Mirrors." "Mamma, may I speak?" "You know that you must not talk at table." "May I not just just one thing?" "No, my boy. When papa has read his paper you may speak." Papa reads through his paper, and says, kindly: "Now, William, what is it?" "I only wanted to say that the water pipe in the bathroom had burst." ON SIDE PATH AND BOULEVARD The last report of Treasurer Tatter-sall of the League of American Wheelmen shows the league to have a balance of $3,238.63. The New Hamphire division of the League of American Wheelmen is now constructing roads connecting Dover, Summersworth and Nashua with the Massachusetts line. A lady in Sacramento, Cal., claims proudly to be the authorized descendant of the original inventor of the pedal-propelled bicycle. She has a machine which she claims was built by her father in France prior to 1840. How much prior is not stated. She is probably waiting to name the exact date until she learns what others have to claim. She can then go them one better. Returns just published by parliament show that during 1898 exactly 6,108 cyclists were arrested in England for violations of the highway act. Of the number, 5,515 were fined. Only 514 of the unfortunates were women. While the number appears large, it is small by comparison with the arrests of drivers and horsemen for offences against the same law, of whom there were 11,045. The law covers scorching, failure to carry lights, etc. The prince of Wales has joined the ranks of automobilists, and a 10-horsepower Diamler-hooded phaeton, specially constructed for him, is now on view at a carriage store in St. James street, London. The prince intends to use it at Sandringham, and has already had several lessons in the art of autocar driving. This car has every latest improvement, the vibration being reduced to a minimum by a new patent. It cost the prince $8,000, but any one else would have to pay $12,000. The way millionaires discharge their lust as taxpayers is well illustrated in the case of W. J. White of Cleveland, Ohio. White is a lover of fast horses, and he is a famous race horse, Star Pointer. The price paid for the animal was $15,000, and White has been listed on the tax duplicate at just $69.50. Tired of rubbing?

He leaves a wife and one child to mourn his departure to that land from which no traveler returns. Mr. Taylor was a highly exemplary man with more than ordinary attainment. He was employed by the American Hospice Foundation for the past six years as salesman in the carpet department, where he worked up a big lot of customers. Mr. L. A. Weidenborner, the head of the firm, speaks of Mr. Taylor in the highest terms. He says Taylor was the finest penman they ever had and always did the fancy card marking, etc., for the firm. The firm had just arranged to send him out west for the benefit of his health, when he was taken down and never recovered. He was a good provider for his family and had a polio vaccine. His funeral took place from St. Philip's Episcopal Mission, of which he was one of the most faithful, active and influential members.

Subscriber Who Failed to Notify the Publisher to Stop His Penny 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 subscriber $100 for the subscription, and make a request that the paper be discontinued to his address. The evidence in the case brought forth the review of the Odd Fellows subscribed and paid for the Review for one year, and he continued to accept it after his subscription had expired. Later he changed his address without notifying the publisher, and he paid for one year, and the paper. This, the court held, was through no fault of the publishers, who received a judgment for the amount due and costs.

A GREAT MODERN DAILY The greatest feat of modern civilization is the modern newspaper. This thought comes to mind almost every day. The wrapper The Minneapolis Tribune, it is. A DONALD ply 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 untrue 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 ability to shape party policy and the selection of candidates for office. All this is understood, however, from the fact that The Tribune is in no sense an newspaper—with the accent upon the news. No doubt this accounts for its topping 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. ```markdown ``` considering the number of people within its field, than any paper we know of. There are more kinds of people in Minnesota interested in the dog in The Tribune's daily cartoon than in any other one daily creation. These cartoons are inimitably funny, and at the same time full of good sense. They do home a witty thrus. when a whole body of editorial might glance off ineffective. The Tribune has recently moved into its new marble front building, of which it is justly proud. Its equipment is 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 newspaper brains and character in the New York. We feel like saying to others "Toe the mark with The Minneapolis Tribune." In Store for Ladies and Children of Mion. enpols.

Rumor Afloat Mr. Editor: We understand there is a rumor afloat, that the Chicago Amateur Ministrel Club's picnic will be free for all. In order that we might be able to enjoy the friends of that thought, I ask you to give this article space in your paper. All persons of a questionable character will be denied the privilege of attending this picnic. I understand, that we are catering to ladies and gentlemen only, and if any others attempt to go, they will be stopped and gate. Respectfully. JULIUS N. AVENDORPH, President C. A. M. C. Hinco's Trocadero Theatre "The Venetian Burlesquers," a new Eastern company, direct from New York, where it scored well with both the press and public, will be the week's attraction at Miaco's Trocadero, beginning next Sunday afternoon. With the company will be a large number of handsome women, perfect of form and bright of face, while the comedians, a capable and clever crew, will be headed by Bob van Osten, one of the most original and widely popular fun-makers in the country. Some first class specialties will be given, while the merry girls will appear in two new burlesques, both full of spice and ginger, and in a new series of sensuous and entrancing living pictures. Between the acts, the palm garden downstairs will be open, affording ample opportunity for refreshment and conversation. Olivet Baptist Church. Olivet school, corner of 27th and Dearborn Sts., convened at 9.30 a. m.; opened by singing "Blessed Assurance." Invocation by Mr. Choi, Davis Rev. Bailey of Florida addressed the school. Attendance, 560; collection, $1.27. At the morning service Rev. J. F. Thomas, the pastor, preached a sermon on Christian Suffering. In the school, Rev. Bailey cupped the pulpit, selecting for the theme of his discourse: "A Warrant to Search the Scriptures." There were present with us Rev. Wright and son, Prof. Wright, of Georgia. B. Y. P. Prof. Wright, of Georgia, on next leader, Presst. Wm. Crudthp. All cordially invited to attend. Society Base Ball Game. The Emergency Base Ball team of the South Side, under the captaincy of Mr. Julius N. Avendorph, and the North Side, under the captaincy of Mr. Ray Shaw, play a game of ball at the Columbia ball park, 39th street, near Wentworth avenue, Saturday afternoon, August 18th. This will be a very interesting game, and West Side runs high. Captain Avendorph's team is composed of the following players: Eugene Renfrey, p.; Starks, c. R. B. Harrison, 1st b.; Phillips, 2nd b.; Will Smith, s.; Julius N. Avendorph, 1st b.; Taylor, l.; f. Joe Schaefer, c. f.; Wen Grayson, r. f.; Claude Alexander and Al Hackley. This will be the society base ball game of the season. "Emergencies" colors, yellow and blue. sam T. Jack'a. The tremendous hit scored by the Tenderloin Company at Sam T. Jack's has induced Manager Euson to retain the importance of burlesque stars one more week, and now in June, Aug. 5. The company presents two brilliant burlesques, "Radley Rarton Benton" and "Old Age and Youth." The way of costumes, scency and electrical effects that have never before been seen on a burlesque stage. The whole is interspersed with catchy dialogue, and up of twenty handsome, shapely and talented young ladies such as one does not generally find in a burlesque company. The will be entirely new next week and the team to be shown will be far above the average. Even during the hottest weather Chicago has experienced this comfortable a temperature as one could desire. Political Points. In their change of mind concerning the Goebel law, the Kentucky Democrats are moved by expediency and not by morality. W. L. Martin, Republican speaker, went to Monmouth to make an address. Col. Marshall went to Quincy to make a speech. The Kansas City ticket and platform is calculated to make things lively at the exits instead of the entrances of the Democratic party. The Marquette Club has engaged rooms J 12 and 14, Great Northern Hotel, for headquarters during the coming political campaign. It might be well for Bryan to arrange with his publishers to get out "The Second Battle," and begin to prepare matter for explaining how it happened. Senator Bacon has been pounding away at the Delphi platform. Senator Bacon is the gentleman who recently distinguished himself by not being able to tell the difference between toadstools and mushrooms. Afo-American voters of Braidwood, Will county, have organized a McKinley-Yates Club. The following officers chosen are President, T. C. Fleming; vice president, Albert Turner; secretary, M. C. Clark; treasurer, James Dillard. The Thirtieth Ward Afo-American Republican has been organized with the following members: Charles J. Kisson; vice president, Robert Porter; secretary, Samuel J. Manning; treasurer, Rufus B. Coldwell; sergeant-at-arms, W. A. Harris. Representatives of the national, state and county, Republican committees met in joint session Tuesday afternoon. The utmost harmony characterized the deliberations, it is given out, and the three committees will pull together to raise money raised in Illinois will be divided equally between the three committees, according to the present plan. Dr. J. H. Magee returned from a political mission down the state, this morning, and reported to Capt. Chavis, the publican state committee is doing among the Afro-American members. Dr. Magee stated that he had aided in the formation of the Yates-Mckinley members of the organization are Indians and Afro-Americans. The following are the officers elected: President, W. M. Harkers; vice president, Gladieu, treasurer; Joseph Henderson; secretary, James Crockett. Henry C. Hedges of Mansfield, o. chairman of the Speakers' Bureau in Indian headquarters, arrived in Chicago Monday and took charge of his office. He will begin at once to get things into shape so as to be ready to send there is a demand for spellbinders when Hedges said yesterday that Tom Reed would be asked to take the stump for his party, and he had no doubt that he speaker of the house would consent. Dr. Magee committeeman from Kansas, was also a visitor at Republican headquarters. The Democrats, it develops, are making a quiet effort to win over a good part of the Republican Afro-American vote. To counteract this movement the Republican state committee is paying more than a tention to the Afro-American wing of the party. Capt. J. Chavis is in charge of the work among the Afro-American state. He has announced the following campaign speakers: Rev. William Gray, H. McGee, ex-Senator T. T. Allaine, A. H. Roberts, John G. Jones, Rev. R. H. Colson, Col. John R. Marshall, H. M. Horowitz, Col. John R. Marshall, Clemons of Lincoln, Rev. Alex Chavis of Palonia, Capt. G. V. Lane of Mound City, J. B. McCreary of Metropolis, J. B. Phillips of Jollet, and Charles J. Phillips of City, Capt. Chavis will see that women are represented on his list of campaignors. Dr. Carrie Golden and Mrs. Ida B. Wells Barnett will be among the speakers he will select. Illinois Central to Elliott's park, August 6. THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER SCOTLAND WOOLEN MILLS CO.

The members of the St. Mark's Church should get a move on themselves and not let their members be turned out of doors. If the members are armed, church they should close it up until they are safe. The congregation should be self supporting and not dependent on the general public. Miss Watson and Miss Kacell of Henderson, Ky. who had been in attendance at the Summer Nory in the wind of City Ware in the city the pa held, were Berry. They spoke in the highest of terms of respect shown them by be young men during their time. And now Mr. Stevens is taking "Kentuck" Rev T. R. Gaitin and several respectable families will leave New Orleans and locate in the city where they would like for some one to point out the difference between the boxers of N. O. and those of China. How is it that the government senses our soldiers thousands of miles away our missionaries and cannot protect the citizens. We think it is a grievance to the government. Mr. Robert Charles and his brave followers have he sympathy of all brave men. If we had one undried man like him in the South. There never would have been riot in N. O. The Negroes will have been taken by their prayer book and takes up his life. There are bawes a cawed. Where would we be today if the 200,000 Negroes had not the courage to shouldle muckets and go to the front and fight. We should build a monument in honor of our brave men like Bill Allen and Robert Charles and all other who have died with their faces to our enemies. Learning is either good or bad, according to him that has it—an excellent weapon, if well used; otherwise, like a sharp razor in the hands of a child. There is no idle dream, but a sollena reality based on and encompassed by eternity. Find out your work, and stand to it; the night cometh, when no man can work. All brave men are brave in initiative, but the courage which enables them to succeed where others dare not even attempt is never so potent as when it leads to self-forgettfulness. Not unfortunate is the fact when first friends met, Friends and friends on earth, and therefore dear; sought off, and sought almost as off in vain, yet always sought, so native to the heart, so much desired and coveted by all. Those who despise fame seldom deserve it. We are apt to undervalue the courage we cannot reach, to conceal our power, to hide our kindness which kindles upon the best fuel and burns brightest in the breast breasts. ST.
