This place is known as Easter island, or it is generally called "The Mya" and we can conceive an island only eleven miles from the nearest land (Piccatair) and 2.26 from here, writes the correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer. This island is called the Mystery of the Pacific because it lies under a mysterious once Upon a time it was fertile enough to support a number of inhabitants. Then the whering hand of sterility descended on its fair plains, today its ever-dwindling population obliterated. But the island is not all. The race that many years ago inhabited it have unaccountably degenerated. Davis some time in the last century Rumani, as it was originally called, was inhabited by a race of giants, strong, robust and all over six feet. The Dutch admiral, Rogge-men, who, after devaring to make Davis island, discovered, as he thought, a unknown land. This happened on Easter Sunday, April MEN WERE LARGE. Both Davis and the Dutchman hay special stress on the fertility of the land, and the Dutchman corn fowls, the admiral especially being so strung by the abundance and quality of the produce of the land, the premised the island to the government as a suitable place for emigrants. The people of these unhappy people distrusted from the Dutch nation an ancient religion is lost in the mists of the South.

LIFE AND LABOR IN THE PENAL INSTITUTION AT DART-MOOR NO FIDELITY AMONG CONVICTS Some of the Stories About Sensational Escapes—Cleveland Escape Was by a French Officer. Maj. A. Griffith, in the Pal Mell magazine, describing a visit to Dartmoor, writes: Dartmoor is now before everything an agricultural colony. Thereupon up here, high among the Devonian hills, the sea level, it has become a model farm under the intelligent and enterprising control of Sir Joshua Jebb, Sir Edmund Rugles, Rugles-Bricke, who have in turn been the chief administrators of England's phore department. For nearly fifty years the island has been carried on at Dartmoor. In 1854 the complete cessation of transportation obliged the authorities to seek employment for the construction of a war prison at Dartmoor was reoccupied. Since then about fourteen hundred acres of moor and bog have been converted into farmland. A cordon of armed sentries, the civil guard, surrounds the outermost bounded area, and constantly controls his men, counts them over continually--for the number he takes out he must bring back, alive or dearest to him. The army, the industry and general demeanor. It is this ceaseless supervision, this senses most, is closely observed. It is the best guarantee against outbreak. Just, more than this, the authorities know from long experience that convolts; combination—the most dreaded, the most punishable of all prison officers; concentration is all impossible, because in no case can it certain to play and betray his fellows. The word now as to the work of reclamation in progress here just under our eyes. This is perhaps the most interesting operation the soil is being worked for the first time since prehistoric ages or the glacial epoch. It is done by digging, moving feet and throwing up the black, slimy, peaty shell, turning it over and exposing it to the air, then burying the soil in the ground and the topmost grass. Whenever necessary, stone drains are laid three feet down, at intervals of from thirty to forty The land is then left to lie fallow for a time, after which the first crop is sown, rape or raye, according to the season of growth, and it matures; then some sows and then a short rotation of crops—sweeps first, then barley, then grass seed, for the next year, and then it is destined to be laid down in permanent pasture. Of this an expert agriculturist speaks in the highest terms, recording his observations of the farm, can be found anywhere than that laid down on Darmortown farm within the last year. The farm can be run anywhere but rushes twenty years ago when you carry one bulbock an acre during the summer months. This work of reclamation is not done until the soil surely; the average amount of land added to the farm is some twenty-five acres a year, although last year it was limited to eight acres, a diminution of twenty acres, the soil attacked, which occupied more men in quarrying and removing stone than in trenching, partly through the infestation. Dartmoor in the last year or two has not exactly had a clean record as regards the public, but it is the previous the public was startled by stories of daring attempts to break from the town too, but only for a time. The world is small, even in those far-off wilds; the fugitive is a very Inshmale, with a price on his head, even a man's hand to hold him. Dartmoor is short lived. Among Dartmoor traditions are some strange, even comical, tales of a native who took refuge in the upper branches of a tree, fell asleep there and found when he swoke a picnic party at the pub on that he dropped, upon the tablecloth.

THE APPEAL, St Paul Minn. SATURDAY, JANUARY 5, 1901. The record of lynchings for 1900 is 115, as against 107 in 1899. The South has been the scene of 108 of these lynchings, the North of eight. Of the 115 victims 107 have been Afro-Americans. The most frequent of the crimes alleged to have been committed by them are murder and criminal assault, thirty-nine of the former and eighteen of the latter. The Southern States, in which lynchings have been most frequent, are as follows: Louisiana and Mississippi, twenty each; Georgia, sixteen; Florida, nine; Alabama, eight; Tennessee, seven; Arkansas and Virginia, six each. The three Northern States, which must be classed with the Southern in this unenviable category, are Indiana, Kansas and Colorado. In Indiana three Afro-Americans, and in Colorado two Afro-Americans and one white man and in Kansas two white men have been the victims. The circumstances at- 1—Parson—Brother Smith, we must strike while the iron is hot. D.W.K. 1. "At this, the beginning of not only a new year, but a new century as well. It is meet that I form certain resolutions. I sha'l not smoke, chew, drink nor lose." MR. BOGGS BEGIN "At this, the beginning of not only a is meet that I form certain resolutions, my temper and cuss." tending some of these Northern lynchings have been as cruel as any which have occurred in the South. In Colorado an Afro-American was tortured and nothing has been done to vindicate the law. In Indiana one innocent Afro-American was lynched and nothing has been done about it. Such deeds as these silence denunciations of the South for its failure of justice. In sixteen years 2,583 persons have been lynched in the United States, and what good has been accomplished? Crime continues undiminished and nowhere does it increase faster than in the States where lynching has been most frequent. It is, therefore, not a preventive of crime. The only excuse that can be offered is that popular resentment has been visited upon the perpetrators of crime, but the cost has been the weakening of respect or law. In almost every case where leath is the penalty for crime the criminal would have been executed ifound guilty. If he were not guilty he should not be executed. What has been gained by mob murder? It is sincerely hoped that the first year of the new century will bring with it a lessening of crime and mob murders. The first person of note to pass away in the new century was Ignatius Donnelly, who died in Minneapolis at 12 o'clock New Year's night, after a three hours' illness, of heart disease. He was seventy-nine years of age. He was an author of great ability and was a lover of his fellow men. His Dr. Huegot was a wonderfully true to life conception and in it he came nearer putting his hero in a black man's place than any other writer we have read. Our personal acquaintance with him was of a very friendly character and we ever found him true to the sentiments he expressed in his writings. We have certainly lost a good JAMES PYLES PEARLINE WASHING THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER "Ah! a bill of the presents Maria purchased at Christmas time." friend in the death of the "Sage of Ninninger."

Another remarkable adventure was the convict who broke out of prison and then broke into the surgeon's house, and thus effectively disguised, get clipped by others more sensational in the earlier records, when Dartmoor was a warrior on similar lines as that last told. The time was in the royal navy, and his uniform proved an excellent passport to the fugitive found friends and sent him back with thanks, saying they fitted extremely well. The cleverest escape, perhaps, was that of the French officer who was employed in the chapelman's quarters, and who forced himself to be built up inside the flue. At night, by a great effort, he saw down the green masonry, released himself and never was recaptured. LOWERS Necessary at Funerals. The Rhode Island supreme court has rendered a decision that flowers form a necessary feature of a funeral. The case under consideration was an action brought by a florist against the administrators of the estate of a deceased citizen who had refused to pay for flowers furnished on the credit of the estate. The court justified the expenditure, remarking that "the custom of having flowers at funerals is well-nigh universal in this country and that, when not abused by extravagance or unseemly ostentation, it is certainly to be commended as giving appropriate expression to our feelings of respect and love for the departed."

Nobody .can prove anything ‘else. Besides being haunted by a ghost he 4s haunted by some unique ideas about ghosts. It is his firm belief that a dullet from a revolver will put the ghost of the biggest man ‘who ever lived to flight. For two years John- son has carried a revolver with which to hammer away at the first ghost ‘who appears. Through sheer perver- sity the ghosts have neglected to ‘take advantage of their opportunities. Not one has come near him and all the time he has been scared almost to Aeath. ‘The new century had a message for him. It gave him courage and told ‘him, through some process of reason- ing known only to himself, that ne ghost would appear to him for seven ays. To celebrate this happy ‘assur- ance Johnéon direw out the ghost an- nihilating gun in a Clark street lodg- mg house. A ghost weigiing 276 pounds and wearing brass buttons and thick-soled shoes took Johnson to the Harrison street police station, where the magis- trate, unluckily for Johnson, is.a ma- terialist. When Johnson told his story ‘of haunting the justice gave vent to metallic laughter and took away John- ‘son's revolver.

EPIGRAMS OF A NOVELIST. “In Kedar’s Tents,” by Henry Seton Merriman: For- all’. women there Would be no polities if there were no politicians, é ‘The happiest women are those who live in a small world. 3 How wise was the great God when he made a human life short! His whole existence was an effort to 4o without those things that make life worth having, It is easy to be wise without deing learned, It is easter still to be learned ‘without being wise.

Doctors Disagree but Majority Speak Well of ‘This Fruit. The theory has been advanced by some learned authorities that the ap- ple is not a wholesome article of food. Doubtless in individual cases this has Proven to be the case, but it s hard to believe that fruit that almost every one likes, and one which can be grown freely and in practically unlimited Quantities in all temperate climates, Was not intended for the use of man, There are other authorities, however, who come to the rescue and so highly Tecommend the apple that we conclude that where doctors disagree we must depend upon, our own judgment and experience. To quote from well. known American authoritles, the apple is composed of vegetable: fiber, albu- men,’sugar, acid, gum, chloroBhyl, ma- Ne and galie acids, lime and water, and contains as well a larger percent- age of phosphorus than any other fruit or vegetable. ‘This analysis would in- ateate that there must be considerable food value in apples, and on account of the phosphorus they are well adapt- ed for renewing the essential nervous matter. There is an‘old Scandinavian legend to .the effect that what was Tepresented in their treditions as the food for the gods,was resorted to by them when they felt themselves grow- Ing feeble and infirm to renew their Powers of mind and body. ‘They are recommended to persons of sedentary habits who are’ apt to have trouble on account of torpid livers, which are slow in their work of eliminating the wasted material of the body,’ which, if Tetgined, makes the brain heavy and dull and may in time cause cheuma- tism, jaundise” elm eruption, and Heubies of like uacure, he "male acid in the fruit, whether new or cooked, will remedy difficulties arising from a too liberal use of meat diet by neutralizing’ the excess of chalky mat- ean" HERE AND THERE.
