STIRS UP OLD GAMBRIDGE HISTORICAL ASSOCIATIONS RE- VIVES THE CLEARANCE OF CHELLEBRATION OF HISTORY REVOLUTIONARY BARBACKS It Is Recalled by a Group of Venerable Buildings—Wadsworth's House and President Langdon's Prayer. CAXBRIDGE, Mass. Feb. N.—The chief historical associations of Old Cambridge are annually revived by the celebration of Washington's birthday. In Brattle street is the old Vassall house, Washington's headquarters during the siege of Boston, and the home of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow. Farther out is Lowell's Elmwood, another historic mansion of Revolutionary times. Near the common is the ancient elm, suffering a yearly loss of vitality through sheer old age, but still with an appearance at least of sturdy strength, under which Washington took command of the American army. The common lying across the street from the Harvard yard was the scene of the American encampment, and the yard itself still contains five of the buildings which looked down upon those stirring times. Within a few years only the old Holmes house, the birthplace of the autocrat, from the steps of which President Langdon, of Harvard, offered prayer for the success of the troops on their way to Bunker Hill, has had to be torn down for the better accommodation of Richardson's beautiful building for the law school. Northern town, perhaps, outside of Philadelphia and Boston, contains more than a quarter of these opening days of the Revolution. In the town can call up in imagination almost the entire population, and in the ment in the group of old haints when then as now were clustered over against the common. Here are Massachusetts, Harvard and Hollis halls, and Holden Chapel, where the attention attended service, not far away. Still in the yard—although not comprehended in the same way, the other—is Wellesley house, the residence of nine Harvard presidents, in which Washington's heacquariums were established for the first week or so before the Revolution. When George III, "glorying in the name of Englishman," ascended the throne, Harvard loyally responded in a congratulatory volume of English and Latin verse. Only a few years after the senior class was voting to take its degree "in the manufactures of the country," and wore homespun accordingly as a protest against the oppression of king and parliament. The temper of revolt thus established was turned soon after for lack of other material, perhaps against the administration of the college itself. In 1688 a very fair-sity rebellion against the president and professors broke out. A "Tree of Liberty"—in imitation of the Liberty Tree of the Boston patriots—was designated, and the three lower classes requested to be discharged, while the seniors asked that they might be sent to New Haven to receive their degrees from Yale! Next year, however, internal dissension seems to have been forgot in dislike of the common foe across the water. A military company was recruited from the students, calling itself the Marti-Mercurian band, with the motto, "Tam Marti quam Mercurio," indicating that war as well as scholarship was the proper duty of the American undergraduate in the time of hls country's peril. Blue coats faced with white, nankeen breeches, white stockings, top boots and cocked hats composed the uniforms. The general court of Massachusetts came to Cambridge to sit at this time, resenting the presence of British troops and cannon in Boston. The deliberations were in Harvard hall, still in exterior appearance almost exactly the same as then. James Otis made one of his impassioned harangues—to use the good old phrase—and the students crowded to hear him. Turning to them he bade them remember that their turn to resist oppression might soon come. One cannot help being glad that he did not omit to quote Horace's line, "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori." "Not an eye but was wet," we are told; "not a breast but throbbed with patriotic emotion." Otis had graduated from Harvard in 1743, and knew his audience. In 1770 the general court came again to the testimony of one time, according to the testimony of one time, "the young gentlemen"—the "student body," which is now referred to—and "caught" by their declarations and forensic disputes breathe the spirit of liberty. This has always been encouraged, but they have not been able to pitch a pitch of enthusiasm that it has been difficult for their tutors to keep them from doing so. It is of giving too great a check to a disposition which may hereafter fill the country with the wrong people, to it it to use and experience to check their valor. Toryism was not popular in the New England theocracy. War gradually grew a sterner and nearer thing, however, than forensic debate, or even the orations of a great patriot like Otis. The Massachusetts committee of safety ordered the students to be removed from the college in order that the buildings might be used for barracks for the militia which was gathering before Boston. A little later the library and philosophical apparatus were sent to Andover to be out of harm's way. Massachusetts and Holls halls, of those yet standing were used for the soldiers. Massachusetts contains now only lecture rooms, but Holls is still a dormitory. Edward Everett, William Hickling Prescott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Charles Francis Adams, Charles Sumner, Wendell Phillips and Henry D. Thoreau are among the students who have lived in it at one period or another of their college life—not to mention the later student (of the class of 1783), Charles Angler by name, whose table, we are told, "was always supplied with wine, brandy and crackers, of which his friends were at liberty to partake at any time," and whose memory has been kept green by the pen of John Holmes, the quiet-living brother of Oliver Wendell. Naturally, the soldiers were not too careful of their new quarters, and they were not careful of the college was no loser by its sacrifices. An appropriation was made to put in order the college, and the college will hill for repairs on Massachusetts as was follows: **8** brass knob-locks for chambers **9** der doors at 8s. **12** 3 0 **12** knob latch for chamber door. **12** 3 0 large stock lock for cellar **12** 3 0 rolls of paper at 8s. **17** 1 0 **12** yards of paint at 2s. **6** 1 0 Other damages. **6** 1 0 dent which stands out impressively through the years. A thousand men paraded at a dclock on the common the twelve hours provided for twenty-four hours of curried provisions in the entrenched tools in the Cambridge camp. Col. William Prescott took command. At a signal, amid profaned silence, he entered the mansion, steps of the Holmes mansion, the headquarters of the committee of public safety, offered an earnest prayer for the success of the patrolta. He closed as fidelity, and kept them as in the hollow of Thy hand, cover them with Thy protecting care, and bring them back to us victoriously." The morning the immortal entrenchment was finally faced the British troops in Boston. Washington heartened by the conduct of the Americans in this battle, arrived in New York more than 9,000 militia encamped on Cambridge, common and occupying the Wadsworth house, established himself in Wadsworth house, the morning of July 3, he proceeded to the great elm under whose branches he formed a formal command of the American forces. He proved too small for the accommodation of himself and his staff, and was abashed.

HIGH GAME Pulsons That Are Evolved in Various Stages of Animal Flesh. London Lancet. The eating of "high" game is undoubtedly attended with risk, and the poisonous effect is probably due to the toxins produced in the eagle stages of the putrefactive progress. The advantage of course, of hanging game is, that the flesh becomes tender and decidedly more digestible than when it is quite fresh. The ripening process, however, may mean the elaboration of the toxins. It has been stated that the production of the characteristic flavors of game is related directly to the amount of sulphuretted hydrogen or sulphur-alcohol set free, but it is rather relative to think that the delicate flavor of game is dependent upon that invariable product of decomposition of rotten eggs—sulphuretted hydrogen. The smell evolved during cooking of "high game is even more disgusting. Fresh game sometimes sets up mysterious, poisonous symptoms, which have been attributed the fact of the game having been overheated, and fatened. Fatigue products, indeed, have been separated from overhunted game, which were jected into a healthy animal have produced poisonous effects. There is no doubt that fatigue products under certain circumstances are also elaborated in the high-food body, and give rise to a species of self-polys机构atracteristic symptoms of which are headaches and gasmac and intestinal pains. The flesh of oven-rotten cattle may prove poisonous from the same cause. curious formation of poisonous products of terror or exhaustion is a question of terror or exhaustion of poisonous animals of animal foods, and emphatic sensitiveness of food intended for food in the most human MEDICAL NOTES Even among people of the greatest intelligence and apparently sound mind there are men who which control the emotions and obsessions which control the emotions and thoughts beyond the power of reason or resistance. When these men's emotions become known to a person's friend, they are called a language, "cracked," and are apt to consider him as upon the border line of insanity, perhaps truly, for they will re-examine the world over which they have no control and the symptoms which they manifest are, as a result, of a story which will never be endured. These cases of mental instability often form fruitful texts for writers of fiction, and these texts are especially fond of portraying such subjects. But these writers skim their over the many superficial manner, while there are few who have studied the subject thoroughly. The victims of true morbid fear are the prey of morbid dread, full of angulish, sudden and irresistible, which possesses them in spite of all reason. Hereditary nervousness, effeminate education, social excesses and all forms of excessive or unrestrained emotion are among the chief causes of morbid fear, but to enumerate all the varieties would be an endless task. Classification even is difficult, but among the first should be placed phobophobia, a fear of a fear, and pantophobia, a fear of everything. Even the smallest object may cause a morbid fear. There is aichmophobia, for example, a fear of pointed articles, such as needles, pins, fish bones, daggers, etc. Not an uncommon example of this is the case of one who abstains from eating fish for fear of getting a fish bone in his throat. There is agoraphobia, a fear of open spaces or crowds. Pascal was a notable example of such a nervous whim which assumes many strange forms. Such a person for example cannot cross a public place, dares not stand at a window, enter a theater, a church or even a railroad station. Then there is a variety of this dread known as thalassophobia, a fear of the ocean, with which Heraclius, Nicolas and Peter the Great were afflicted. Claustrophobia is, on the contrary, a fear of closed spaces; a person thus attaches, when placed in a small or closed chamber, to a person who is tiger and terrible agony. The fear of darkness is also common in many cases, more especially in children and may cause a person to be hand, astrophobia, a fear of looking up at the sky, is more rare. Brück records cases in which, strange to say, a priest opened the door when he was asked with this vexed by his physician never to venture out of doors without an umbrella, which he opened when he was asked with this fear of a storm. Claustrophobia is the fear of a storm of which people take extraordinary precautions in the way of clothing, and in many cases leads to perpetual exile and expatriation in warmer climes. Myokinia, in a mild form, is a very good thing to be possessed of; it is a fear of being locked in a morgue or a morbid degree are continually wiping plates, glasses and all their table ware; dusting chairs, sweeping carpets, brushing hairs and washing their heads with exceeding and painful attention to details.

Inaugurations, Past and Coming. U.S. SENATE TILLMAN TALK MATT BELL CUPA AND SENATE REASE TILLMAN: OH, I'M AH NATCHUL BAWN OBSTRUCTIONIST. ASHINGTON. Feb. 22-Al though it is generally expected that the second inaugural of a president of the United States elaborate an affair as his first inaugural, and that the induction of a president into office the second time will not be attended by so large a gathering of people, there is every reason to believe that not since the second inauguration of President John F. Kennedy so large a gathering of people as will attend the second inauguration of President McKinley. Every arrangement is being perfected for a great public demonstration. The ingenuity of committee members is to provide new and interesting features to attract thousands of visitors to Washington from all points of the country. On March 4, 1801, President Jefferson was inaugurated in Washington, after the removal of the government to this city from Philadelphia a year before. It has been said that Jefferson insisted upon an unconcerning insultation with a total absence of pomp and with the retention of all the simplicity of the colorful period. According to the records of the riding horse, Jefferson unhitched a riding horse and lodgings and rode almost unattended to the capitol to take the oath of office. A study of the newspapers at that time, however, does not confirm the traditional account in which Mr. Jefferson made his way to a TILLMAN TILLMAN: OE from the capitol. On March 4, 1801, at noon, in accordance with summons from the president-elect, congress met to honor the first inauguration held in Washing-ton, the scene was the same as exhibited upon his arrival. He o'clock Thomas Jefferson, attended by a number of his fellow-citizens, among them many members of congress, required to the capitol. As he entered a room he was given him by the artillery. On making his way to chamber he was conducted to the presiding officer's chair. Vice President Burr was seated on his right. Chief Justice Marshall on his left. After the delivery justice administered the oath of confidence he was escorted to his lodgings, although the "President's Palace" was at his disposal. The remainder of the day was devoted to purposes of festivity and the inauguration took place at night. Ex-President Burr. In a general way the inaugurations of the present day do not differ materially from the ceremonies which attended the inauguration of President Washington. The only marked difference may be found in that the United States has grown to be one of the most populous civilized countries in the world and the inaugural ceremonies cover over a larger stage through which the United States has remarkable facilities of travel and communications which are afforded by modern inventions. It is interesting therefore, to glance backward to the ceremonies which attended the inauguration of the first president. It was resolved by congress convened at New York in old Federal hall April 23, 1783 "to attend the installation of the first president." At 12 o'clock to-morrow in the senate room, and afterwards to attend him to divine service at St. Paul's church." Accordingly, Gen. Washington, seated in a carriage with Humphreys, his old-de-camp, and Tobias, his new-de-camp, was escorted from Gov. Clinton's rest. --- dence to Congress hall with military and civic honors. "To the end that the oath of office may be administered in the most public manner," Vice President Adams in on October 1, 1815, conducted Gen. Washington to "the custom of being formally received by both houses of congress. Chancellor Robert R. Livingston then administered the oath of office, after which President Washington returned to the senate chamber and delivered his inaugural address. Shortly after the senate committee attended him to St. Paul's church, where prayers were read by Bishop Provost. The day was given to rejoicings, and at night there was in brilliant display of fireworks. Gen. Webb, Col. Smith, L. E'Amfort, Major Bleeker and Mr. Livingston served as assistants to the senate and house committee on inaugural ceremonies. On March 4, 1783, in response to summons, congress assembled in Independence hall, Philadelphia, where the office by Judge William Cushing of the supreme court, after which the president retired, as he had come, without omp or ceremony. The program this year will not differ materially from the inauguration of four years ago and eight years ago, except that the country insures the increasing magnitude of the event.

The escort will be the surviving veteran under Gen. Skiles, the cadets of the military and naval academies, militia organizations, flambue and civic societies and political marching clubs, beaches visiting governors of the state, many of these in line, will represent the military forces of states, Pennsylvania alone promising the attendance of 9,000 men. Militia troops will come from states as far remote as Mali andillia and from Forto Rican troops. About twenty governors will participate. After taking the oath of office the president will make a public address from a platform on the east steps of the cauldron. He will then re-enter his carriage and be escorted to the special reviewing stand at the corner of the White House grounds, where the parade will have with banners flying and bands playing. One hundred bands will be in line and one hundred hours will be consumed in the marsh. In front of the White House a court of honor is in course of erection, comprising four enormous stands, artistically constructed with handmade arches. Three of them are the president's reviewing stand, which will accommodate about 900 invited guests, including the supreme court, the heads of military and naval forces, legions, diplomats, etc. The president will honor the widow of a fair splendor, and at night will be in a blaze of illumination. The president will review the parade and then will accord a special reception to the war veterans under General Lee's command up on the White House grounds and will shake hands with the chief executive, who will leave the reviewing stand especially to greet his old comrade. The line of march will be along Penn Defective Page sylvani avenue, every building on which will be gorgeously festooned and decorated. After the review the president and lunch with a number of fraternity evening Washington will be in a blaze of glory. The lofty court of the Pension building will be the scene of the inaugural ball, which will be attended by the president Roseveelt, Leest, Gen. Miles, Admiral Dewey and other distinguished men. This ball is aranged at a cost of $42,000, of which $18,000 is spent for decorations. The orchestra and the orchestra will discourse the music for the ball and promenade concerts, and the cost of the music alone will be $8,000. The president will hold an informal reception the ball.

To meet the growing demand for artificial jewelry, the process of making 'precious stones' has been greatly improved within the last few years, and its further development has enlisted the help of chemists. The material chilies, used is glass, but it is not the ordinary glass of commerce. It is prepared with the greatest care by highly skilled artisans, for the purpose of perfect homogeneity depend the perfect composition of the gems, which are far superior to the cheap grade of counterferts that rely on silver backings for their luster. This glass can only be made from absolutely pure quartz, or better still, from the frequently contains minute veins of iron that impair the clearness and color of the glass. The bleaching of potash and the oxide of lead which are mixed with it must also be chemically pure. Other ingredients of less importance are borax, the flux, and a small quantity of arsenic. The best grass for imitation gems consists of rock sylvester, 32 per cent; bicarbonate of potash, 17 per cent; oxide of lead, 50 per cent; borax, 1 per cent, and a trace of ammonia, carefully prepared by competent hands, this mixture produces a grade of glass which in brilliance and iridescence yields little to the genuine diamond itself, and these qualities may be further enhanced by the substitution of potassium for the bicarbonate of potassium in the amount of the quantity of oxide of lead used. Stones carefully made by this process, says the New York Herald, can be distinguished from the genuine only by experts. This is true, however, only so long as they are new, for imitation gems wear, become blond and lose their fire with age, and it is to remedy these defects HISTORICAL SOCIETY THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 4—It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5—It is not controlled by any ring or clique. 6—It asks no support but the people's. that the efforts of chemists are pow directed.

He seemed to be a foot taller and a ton heavier, and his general air was that of a man who had a million dollars in the bank. "Jo-Joel, what is it? What has happened?" exclaimed the wife in tones of fear and anxiety. "I've struck it at last," he replied as he swelled with importance. "Any one died and left you a fortune?" "Noap. It's sunthin a heap better. I've taken just prize at the county fair fur the best bushel of carrots growed in all this county!" "Waal, Jim, I heard you was over to Charlotte, and I thought I'd stop and inquire how things went?" "Who you callin Jim?" "Why, you, of course." "Then, sir, I'd have you know that my name is James Johnson Jones." "But we've bln nayburs and friends fur the last fifteen years, and I've allus called you Jim." The committee opened the roll to look for places where hogs might sue. In through, and the children grew weak in the knees. The carpet was measured, walked on, kicked about, to led up, and six persons heard the beating of their own hearts. "I think I'd die," whispered the wife as she sat down on a nail, reg covered with a crazy quilt. "No, yes," replied the husband. "Now they are consulting together. Now they seem to have come to a decision. Now they are handin the diplomats now they." "Oh, Joel, I can't stand it!" "Don't give up. Now one of 'em is within.

The Gun Hung Fire After supper I sat down for a smoke and a talk with a squatter, but in about half an hour he rose up and said: "Waal, stranger, I'll hey to leave you fur an hour or so to visit with the old woman and children." I did not inquire the reason for his departure, of course, but as he took his gun and walked down the road the wife felt called upon to explain: He uns list gwine down thar about a mile to hunt. "I see. Is this the coon season around here?" "No." "Sounds Oh, not' Coinskins hain't wuth shucc' shucc' "And the same with possums and wood-chuck' suppose?"

"Do you mean a hound has gone to hunt a human beware?" "Yes, sah; that it's. Jim's gone to hunt him. Yes, he did. Yes, Jim. Yes, gone down to the crossroads. Yes, Snicker. "Where does Dan Snicker live?" "Bout five miles west. He un bin to town today, and has to go by home the roads. Jim's bin lay fur him in a yar." "And he will shoot him as he comes righ- t," he said. "Dan Snicker him popped at Jim once, but didn't hit. Sot over at Jim once, but didn't hit. Sot over at the pesky skeleters won't blie so hard."

"Fur why not?" "Gun hung fire, and he got away." "Of co.se. Stranger turned in!" "Yes-come. long to bed!" The Queen and Napoleon. The simplicity of the queen's character is well shown by the ease with which the adventurer Bonaparte ingratulated himself and the obscure Spanish countess whom he had married into her favor, says Harper's Weekly. He was, as Greville remarks, the first man whom she had ever met on the footing of equality, and he took prompt advantage of this vantage ground to secure for himself the stamp of what may be called the social approval in the coterie of kings which her approbation conferred. He did it by the old but always effective method of familiarizing himself with the life history of the subject of his flattering attentions. "It is very odd," exclaimed the ingenuous queen, after her visit to Paris in 1856, "but the emperor knows everything I have done and everywhere I have been since I was twelve years old; he even recollects how I was dressed."—Harper's Weekly. A Swarm of Locusts. One afternoon, near Marmur, in Basalouet, one afternoon some clouds of smoke began to rise above the village on fire. But instead of fading, the clouds remained dense and stretched across mountains and sky with density and strength across the horizon with termination. As this cloud continued to swarm, a war composed of millions of small particles was it swarmed by wipers. It realized a it was swarmed of locusts. They appeared indeed like smoke, some skimming over the top of the swarm, others in the same line surmounting one cloud, on a green platycon close by. They still came on. On a green platycon close by drive them away as their natives attempting to drive them away from a case of a large swarm they will continue to drop to the ground in this manner in order to have a rest. It took two and a half hours for the swarm to drop to the ground a day, and so dense that a shadow in its case will be visible afterward passing through two swarms.

OLD ENGLAND STIRRED UP FEARS AMERICAN AND GERMAN COMPETITION IN COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY OUTSTRIPPED BY HER RIVALS Unless She Adopts the More Modern and Enterprising Methods of Other Nations Her Fate Is Sealed. That widespread interest is being arroused by the series of articles now appearing in these columns on the urgent necessity there is for England looking to the United States. We are exemplified by the fact that both the American and standard magazines are taking up the subject in a most serious vein. The ex-communist leader of the United States are called from the Fortnightly the Crown and Cassier's, all their periodicals whose utterances, emanating as they do from the pens of experienced and expert writers, deserve our attention and consideration. They may seem pessimistic, but the warnings they convey can not be disregarded with impunity. Our purpose is at stake; in other words our empire. In an article by "Calchas," entitled "will England Last the Century?" which will be published for right now, the writer declares that "If you know our trade we cannot keep our empire." THE ISSUE OF THE CENTURY. "The broad issue for the twentieth century is the decline of the British or the German empire at the end of two or three generations will possess the relative ascendancy in trade and its importance to the world. It is obvious that either or both may be surpassed by the United States. Between the three contest must be decided. The three contest must be decided upon the timeliness and intensity with which we may realize that this must be a major problem of the new century, whatever may be taken of the ultimate solution. "Unless the empire is re-engined—the metaphor is naturally suggested by the Atlantic triumphs of the Hamburg steamers—we shall be outstripped." "We are, in short, a nation in jeopardy, but we are not a nation in decadence, and it is as certain that our future for another century at least is in our hands as that of Prussia was in those of Stein and Scharnhorst in the period of reconstruction after the debacle of 1906." "If we go on as we do now, there need, of course, be no difficulty in drawing our horoscope. To the nation which is supreme in the scientific spirit the twentieth century must belong, and if England is to remain the international ignorance and to be dependent more and more upon America and Germany for her electricians and chemists, and for all the newest appliances in her oldest trades, then the wavering balance in which the future of the country hangs must drop downwards." "The British empire as yet has time, time, time, to send the stimulus of a new national spirit, strenuous and keen, deriving its invaluable strength from its urgent sense of necessity, throughout every class of her people, from top to bottom, from her cabinet to her infant schools." Twenty years hence it may—it probably will—be already too late. OUSTED FROM EVERYWHERE Mr. William Clarke has this to say in the Contemporary Review for December: "German goods are not constantly rising in intrinsic value, but they oust English manufactures in every market in the world. America has long passed England in the Iron and steel manufacture, her annual product being now almost double that of England, while last year, for the first time, the American output of coal surpassed that of England. In every great international competition in machinery America easily beats England." "It is clear that the serious decline of England as a great industrial center has begun. The energy of Englishmen will certainly lead them to make a prodigious efforts but America has even greater energy, and infinitely greater resources, while both Germany and America display greater intelligence and originality than does England. All these considerations, therefore, point to English industrial decline." "Imperallists think that England, as a great industrial country, will be saved by her over-sea empire. There can be no greater delusion. Every British colony wishes to manufacture for itself. Every British colony shows a distressing tendency to buy in the most convenient market." "England has been annexing territories which are, economically speaking, of no use. No effective demand can come from the Soudar or Uganda, and even from Rhodesia. One single first-class continental city is of more value to England, from the economic point of view, than tens of thousands of square miles in Africa." "We may therefore regard the existing schemes for maintaining England's industrial supremacy as all doomed to failure." Mr. Louis Cassier, writing in Cassier's "Industrial for the present month on "The Industrial and the Green Britain," utters the following of the first sentence, "Brittain was the first smelter of iron ore among modern nations, but it is open to doubt whether there is in Great Britain a single blast-furnace that can produce a capacity with the best furnaces now making from the American for shipment to Europe. Britain as a first maker of coke for smelting and manufacturing purposes, but her coke ovens have long been antiquated, and she is only now tardily adopting ovens to the same way as the present design. There is nothing to prevent it from being made of or from making it for the present, and coke ovens as perfect, and both as labor-saving, as in America. Simply they don't do it until compelled—and this is the fact that the first smelter of iron ores is "In the matter of industries we conceive that the real trouble may be summed up in four things—over-conservation, imperfect distribution of labor, insufficient specialization, and the tyrannism. The greatest blow to British industry was the烟 from the trade unions who allowed to get the hand into works management. The shop steward is the curee of masters and men alike, for his mission really is to see the every man does the smallest possible work. The most important is the highest, the longest possible number of industrial system can survive the blighting influence of such practices as were revealed during the engineers' strike, and which have more or less generally become in all cases in the country. The century upon which we are now occupying upon in trade that the most important event in seem and under conditions of which the experience. At the beginning of the States, as an industrial factor in the work of amies, were a negligible quantity. At times they seem to hold the key to the situation. The most formidable fact with which Industrial England is confronted at the time is that time almost affects and threatens the present of iron, building and engineer- industries of iron, building and engineer- industries active, prosperous and expensive of the two or three closing years of the century were these industries so seriously never were these industries from without as in the first year of 1870.

St Paul Minn. SATURDAY, MARCH 2, 1901. SOUTH TOWN OF CHICAGO. The efforts of certain would-be reformers to cast reflections upon the various town governments will fail so far as the Town of South Chicago is concerned. There was a time under Democratic rule when the South Town office was managed in a careless, slipshod manner, but under Republican officials affairs have been conducted in a careful, businesslike way. Every cent has been accounted for. There are no stuffed pay rolls—every employee is required to give an honest day's labor and before he is paid he must take an oath before the Town Clerk that he has actually performed the work. The best proof the deputy collectors have done honest work is the fact that the collections are far in excess of those of any administration since the organization of the town. The charge that the town officials are useless and perform no duties is a malicious lie. Collector Fuller has worked every day, --- THE MUSEUM OF THE AMERICAN REPUBLIC Occupied by the American Forces Under Washington THE DRAGON, UNCLE SAM'S NEW WAR AIRSHIP. with a few exceptions, since he took hold of the office and since the collection of taxes began he has worked from 16 to 18 hours daily and has seriously impaired his health thereby. He should be renominated. Supervisor Lawler has given his entire time to his work and has been on hand every day during business hours. The Republicans would do well to renominate so excellent an official. Clerk Adams has worked day and night and Sunday too. He has administered the oath to the deputies and has made each employee sign an affidavit that the work had been done before he would issue a voucher in payment for the same. The South Town convention will make no mistake next Monday if Fuller and Lawlor are renominated and a clean, capable Afro-American is nominated for Clerk Adams, having been given a federal appointment, is not in the race. Such a ticket would sweep the town. The lynching and burning of George Ward, an Afro-American, at Terre Haute, Ind., was a terrible affair, viewed from any standpoint, as all such affairs are; but it at least had the effect of arousing intense indignation in Congressman Crumpacker of Indiana. "If I had my way," he said, "the full force of the federal government would be used to prevent such occurrences. I hope the Indiana legislature will take a step by which any county in which a lynching occurs must pay $10,000 to the administrators of the victim." And 'tis said that the anti-lynching bill, which provides that the sheriff in whose county the lynching occurs, shall be removed unless exonerated on defense within ten days, will be revived in view of the Terre Haute lynching. So there may be some good come out of the affair after all. All the people lynched are not black, however, as the lynching fever has grown so that white men are beginning to be among the victims. On last Tuesday, at Scranton, Miss., John Knox, a white man, was lynched for the murder of Don Davis. Knox made no protest on the way out of the jail, simply protesting the words: "I did not mean to do it." He was addicted to drink, and killed Davis while drunk. The lynching of a white man was such an uncommon thing for Mississippi that the account of the affair as published in the dailies was headed: "Something Unusual. White Man Lynched by a Mob in Mississippi." There ought to be some way to make lynchings more dangerous to the lynchers than at present. One of the best ways in the world to reach men is via their pockets. Make lynchers directly or indirectly have to pay for their horrible pastime and there will be less of it. A bill has been introduced in the Wisconsin legislature to prevent Afro-Americans and whites from intermarrying. This is all, wrong, of course, THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER. THE CENTER as love goes where it is sent, and the existence of such laws tend to increase immorality. There seems to be very objection to clandestine sexual intercourse between the races, but great objection to legalizing the same. Only last week in a town in Kentucky a white man procured a license to marry an Afro-American woman, but when the fact became known a mob formed and ran the man out of the neighborhood. A brother of the prospective groom, however, declared that he would go to Ohio and marry the woman of his choice. There are thousands of cases in Kentucky where blacks and whites are living together as man and wife illegally, and it seems very inconsistent to wish to mob a man and woman who wish to INT legalize their union. This is a very inconsistent world anyway. To the everlasting credit of the Missouri legislature be it said that it refused to pass the "Jim Crow" car bill which was before it. There are no just, reasonable grounds in the states where such abominable, inconsistent, troublesome laws exist for their existence, and it is a source of much gratification that the great state of Missouri would not disgrace its statutes with such a blot.

Springfield, Mass. Feb. 2."After two years of litigation the injunction which has kept the palace car "Boston" side-tracked at Brightwood, in this city, has been dissolved, and the car is free to renew its exhibition journey over the country. The news has made Allen Dudley, its colored porter, and his white wife, who have guarded and cared for the car without recompense all this time, very happy. Dudley is to be liberally PARIS MRS.

It had made several long trips, and was brought here for repairs in January, 1899, with Dudley and his wife in charge, concerning the management of the company and one faction secured an induction reraining, the company from moving the car from Brightwood. The first intimation Dudley had that anything was wrong with the company was when he failed to receive his salary. He wrote to the company to wait patiently, and he would get all that was coming to him. He waited until things reached the point where he had written a most undiplomatic letter to the company. He was again told to wait until the courts had settled the matters in dispute. He has been waiting ever since. Brightwood citizens took a lively interest in the case, and saw that Dudley did not want for things to吃. He had a regular provision route, and would bring the mail to the car where he served it unwith all the elegance of the car's fine china, solid silver service and choice table linen.

Among the new books to be issued by Rand, McNally & Co. this fall are "Ef Reshidh" and "Some Philosophy of the Hermetics," both from the pen of Paul Mans, who will be a deep student of the law of being, and these books are the result of his observations. The publishers expect that Mr. Davis's work, with Both Arnies in South Africa," appears to have been quite discursive discussion, from the fact that, having gone to the scene of operations in the Boer sympathies, Mr. Davis afterward joins the Boers and, in the light of the experience thus gained, became a strong part of the Boer cause and a severe crief of the British.

Price $100. American Book Company, New York, Cincinnati, and Chicago. In this history, the rise, progress and decay of the Roman Empire are so treated as to emphasize unity and continuity of the narrative. The work is admirably adapted to the needs of secondary school courses. Specially helpful to the student is the series of progressive maps, which show in the plaster and most graphic manner and in detail the steps in the expansion of the Roman dominions. A noteworthy feature of the book is its description of the character of the Roman people at the present schools of history, and we are very glad to see that the treatment of their wars and conquests S. D. has not diminished the space allocated to the progress of their civilization, as shown in the manners and morals, in their literature, art, religion and law.

The Eckstein Norton University is situated at Cane Spring, Ky., twenty-nine miles from Louisville, Ky., in one of the most healthier 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 salty hill off the land, surrounded on all sides by mountain streams, dashing miniature caratacts, 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 allure, the place of vice and an wholesome amusement, one finds study and expression, the puff of the physical powers developed and secured. All this plays no unimportant part in a student's life, and is aptly suited to all who desire to prepare for an active life. DEPARTMENTS.

What the public requires is novelty and that it is given them with a will in King of the Opium Ring," which will be the coming week, commencing Sunday night, was proved by the record breaking business done by this play when seen here last season. There are several reasons for its success, and chief among them is that there has been a great demand on the board for several years which had combined just the features to A please, that this play has. There is enough of vaudeville to tickle the palate of vaudeville lovers, enough of sensation to please the sentimental heart of the audience, enough of the heroic to make the 'gallery gods' howl with unallowed delight. The main ambition of the play was to provide a novelty, and in this it has been successful. The Chinese quarters in San Francisco provide ample opportunities for novel effects, both in scenery and incident. The scenery is very elaborate, being exact reproductions of the scenes of the town. You are taken among the haunts of the Celestials, where, like bees in a hive, they swarm in their peculiar manner or hunting. From the scenes of the Chinese dives where opium is smoked, then to the beautifully illuminated street scene, where the Chinese New Year is being celebrated by acrobatic feats and other features of the Chinese rooms of the Fong Quay Society, where the Chinese wedding and ragtime ball takes place. A producing company of exceptional talent, with the various roles, and a performance of the most enjoyable order is assured. GOOD BAKER WANTED A good sober barber wanted.

There was once a time when the Negro name shone as brightly as Afric's sun. There was a time when Negro wealth, power and enterprise was unequalled anywhere in the world. There was a time when the gathering of a Negro army caused terror to the people of the world when the Negro was a free man in his own country, not a country that he simply lived in, but one that he owned and governed. This has been more than two thousand years ago. Two cycles have rolled by and carried with them the very sign of Negro enterprise—the last vestige of Negro power and fame. Then to be a Negro was an honor the world round. Then the Negro's name was respectful the world round. Then the Negro was abiding faith in their name. It stood for something other than slavishness and comedy. But now—but now—to be a Negro now, is one of the greatest things now is to accept the lowest station among all the races of Men. To be a Negro now is to be the object of all the white man can bestow, and there seems to be something in the name that acts as a thousand-pound weight upon the bearer. We hope and aspiration so soon as he views the blackness of his skin. Our people have not only A lost faith in themselves, in their ability to fight the battle of life for themselves and by themselves—in personal ability to improve their fortunes and homes and extend their liberty, but they have lost faith also in all the rest of the Negro race. Colored men and colored women, do pick up hope once more! May the God of Heaven and earth, who governs in the affairs of all races of men, grant that we may once more build great cities of our own. May God grant that we be once more established in a free land, where we will not be burnt to death while yet alive; where there will be no race discrimination and no discriminate legislation; where we will not be treated as an inferior people throughout our natural life time; where the sons and daughters of all of our posterity will have a black man's chances in a black man's country. Whenever this name of ours becomes the emblem of power, wealth, industry, intelligence and right, then will the name take a jump. In the world's market, like in the name of ours stand for something and every Negro in the world will be willing to stand for it. I know there is not one of us who really likes to be called Negro, but not get offended at being called a Negro and not to mine to so live that you may fill that name with honor. I am a Negro of the truest type, and I am not ashamed of it. I am glad that I have the opportunity to obstacle that we as a race have got against us. We must est weight that we as a race must unsholder. We have slept now more than two thousand years. My brothers and sisters, let's now talk about the world about us unnoticed, and of goodness, love and power. We must A SOCIAL OPINION JOINT demonstrate that we are awakening. We must show that we recognize our unavoidable duty to give freedom to our people, and we must recognize our duty to God to civilize and unite the great mass of our race and dedicate them to God's will. God's power is powerful enough to make sturdy foundations, and we go forward to our reasonable duty, forgetful of the weights that do so heavily beset us, trusting and leaning on our heralding name of God, who is sufficient when we are weak? May I die in a country where the Negro is a free man, and the name Negro is an emblem of honor and not a disgrace! JOHN WRIGHT. Minneapolis, Minn.

Thomas, the widow of John W. E. Thomas, who died in 1889, leaving a large estate, and John W. E. Thomas, held to the Criminal Court by Police constable J. K. Prindiville, of the Harrison Street Police Station, on the day of her peruvian growing out of this celebrated place, which he tacitly the main topic of discussion among the people of Chicago for the past month. He recalled that THE AP PEAL two weeks ago gave an extended account of the criminal charges which had been preferred against Mrs. Thomas by Hester Thomas Morrison, of the mother of his daughter of Mr. Thomas by his first wife whose mother Mrs. Thomas tried to make the Probate Court believe was the probate four-year-old step-daughter. In addition, stigma being cast upon her, Mrs. Morrison she said she thought she owed a duty to the memory of her departed mother, concluded to make Mrs. Thomas suffer. On the calling of the case before Judge Prindville, Lawyer Anderson, and the judge in the recourse, requested the judge try the case, and his honor thereupon called the case of the People of Illinois Thomas, charged with perjury growing up in a schedule before the Cook County assessors. A deputy assessor was sworn and told the court that the schedule and the court was Mrs. Thomas' schedule, property for the year 1899, made in May, 1890, which showed her to have court fees of $150.00 in household furniture and a few other items bringing the total to THE APTEAL NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER THE NEW YORK CITY PRESS Lowest Prices on Flat Work SHIRTS, 100.

Mr. Morrison was then put on the stand and told the court that Mrs. Thomas had swned in the Probate Court to having $15,000.00 at the schedule, and at time that she made this schedule, and at time that she corrupted by the testimony of William Chambers Mary Washington and Lawyer W. G. Anderson. Mrs. Thomas' attorneys tried to break down the testimony of the witnesses on cross-examination, and the effect, and declined to put Mrs. Thomas on the defense. He argued the case for her and when Lawyer Anderson arose to argue the case for the prosecution, Judge Prindville ended the matter abruptly by holding Mrs. Thomas over the case. Mrs. Thomas' sister, Mrs. Hudson, being she was not taken to jail, Mrs. Hudson signing her bonds, scheduling three thousand dollars of real estate. Lawyer Anderson requested His Honor a non-suit on the other charges. A reporter for THE APPEAL called upon Lawyer Anderson concerning this latest phase of this celebrated case and also to find out what the judge upon the subject. Mr. Anderson thereupon gave the following interview: "This prosecution is founded upon the revenue act, passed by the Illinois legislature in special session in 1898, the act of the act being to require all persons to hold their holdings. The schedules sent out to all personal property holders require such persons to give the actual cash value of all property then owned them and such schedule must be sworn in. The act provides, in law, 19 of the act provides: The assessor shall require every person to make, sign and swear to the schedule provided for by this act. Whoever in making such schedule shall willfully any material matter shall be guilty of perjury and punished accordingly." Section 45 provides: "Whoever, with intent to defeat or evade the law in relation to the assessment of property or to disclosures to any assessor or deputy in fraudulent list, return or schedule of his property not exempted by law from taxation, shall be punished by fine not exceeding Five Thousand Dollars, or imprisoned in the county jail or both in the discretion of the court." Sec. 46. It is hereby made the duty of the state's attorney of each county to prosecute all violators of this act, to prosecute all receivers as fees the sum of twenty-five dollars in violation, to be taxed as costs, and ten per cent (10 per cent) of all fines collected. "It will be seen that in addition to the charge of perjury, on which Mrs. Tucker is accused, the person delivering a false or fraudulent schedule can also be prosecuted under Section 46 as well. The penalty for perjury is an indeterminate sentence of from one to fourteen years in the prison. A prosecution for perjury is also a prosecution under Sec. 46 also."

A girl whom nature has not endowed with her precious gift of beauty should never think that there is no compensation in her lot. She should not become soured and visit her miffortune upon others, who are not to blame for it. She should bear in mind that the women who have ruled the world's destiny have for the most part been quite devoid of beauty. She should think how feetling beauty is, and that she will never suffer the pangs endured by a beautiful woman who sees her charms fading. She should remember, too, that the plainest woman may be made better looking by dress, style of carriage and by a pleasing expression. She should remember that when a man makes love to her it is for her self, no matter the more outward attraction, no matter the why, may vanish an accident by a accident. She should never forget that a bad temper added to a plain face is a misery, but good temper, sweetness, and uniself manners can make a plain woman even more charming than a pretty one—Woman's Life.
