The Appeal

THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. VOL. 17. NO. 12. MAN OF MANY ODD TRAITS J. S. ROGERS, OF PATTERSON, N. J. THE BUILDER OF MANY TREES HAS CLOSED HIS BIG WORKS If Jacob S. Rogers is not the richest man in the state of New Jersey—and the most successful of the prominent citizens of the state in keeping his affairs to him—he is the most successful. Mr. Rogers far more than he usually is because he shut down the Rogers Locomotive works, which had been turned into machines that machines were built in this country. The stimulated curiosity and criticism of his machines apparently disturbed Mr. Rogers (rather than to make him say that he was not a resident of Paterson anyway, but lived in New Jersey). Jacob S. Rogers is great at minding his own business, worth $9,000,000. Others say that he is worth only $5,000,000. In manchur as Mr. Rogers does not recognize the dignity in the matter he has not yet told which figure is the more nearly he has or one two good friends among the strongest business men in the country, and affairs. But they value the old gentleman's friendship rather more, seemingly, than they consider himself about Mr. Rogers' wealth. Mr. Rogers has never appeared to be a public figure, so isn't deductions. He has never taken any palms to get public attention, and if he chose to do a thing that would cause him to be a public figure like little public comment hinder him. He has stuffed deer on his front veranda, and stuffed swans on his front steps and Of late many people have been to see Mr. Rogers, the man who raised his home. When the reporter of a Paterson newspaper succeeds in getting a five-minute talk with Mr. Rogers, the man who raised his home, the black type to celebrate the event. In these rare public utterances Mr. Rogers says things which pain Paterson severely, by making him feel low citizens seriously. The attitude of Paterson toward Mr. Rogers was always rather stern and dictatorial until it was over. Mr. Rogers has been quite humble. It wants to open the works and keep the workmen in the city. Those who study Mr. Rogers will be surprised to learn that he enjoys the new situation. In 1856 Thomas Rogers died. By that time the works were made locomotives out. They were good locomotives, and they had a character of their own, so roadmen were a quality known as the Rogers style. It did not refer to the mechanical work on the machine, but to the way in which they operated the general, clean-cut lines which gave them a dandified appearance among the rather modern companies. After Thomas Rogers' death the style of the business was changed to the Rogers Locomotive and Machine works. James Rogers, the company made money at a rate that started at $100,000 a year. S. Rogers $80,000,000 fortune. In 1850 the company made ninety locomotives in one year. Since then its capacity has risen to over $100,000 a year and has always made money. Its situation was disadvantageous geographically. The company was on its own railroad tracks, those of the Erie Each finished in 1850 ove The Rogers works, with a conservation characteristic of the head of the company, that he makes enough money, and Mr. Rogers naw no reason to believe that it would be profitable to try to make more money in the industry. He is in the picture of mature classes of Paterson's factory district continued for year after year to be entertained and instructed by the sight of a man who is down Market street, and censured Mr. Rogers severely because he did not adopt their rules. For thousand persons, it estimated, depends on the support for their support when they were running at full capacity. And because Mr. Rogers told a man who was talking about buying the works that there was a profit of $ about $1,000 or $1,500 on each engine, he estimated that he would be decided and that decided the profits on the $6.15 automotive engines the factory had made must have amounted to about $8,000,000, the lowest estimate that has been made. CLOSING OF THE WG5K8. Ten years ago, Rogers retired from active participation in the management works. R. S. Hughes, who had been closely involved with the works went into the works together as youngsters. Hughes as an office boy and Rogers is a prospective owner, took care of the works and was confident. No one had been trained up to take this place in the management of the Rogers' company had been trained into Mr. Rogers' condition, so that he was going to close the works as he was going to close the orders as he was going to close the orders were completed. At first Paterson hardly believed him. Then, as the orders were released and gang of men afterward were released from employment it was realized that Mr. Rogers meant exactly what he had said. It was of prominent citizens who were told. It was urged that Mr. Rogers should be told that the city did not have a police force and closed it to hear the message, and had closed it to hear the owner he owned the works. He was then asked what he would sell the works. Now that he was no longer a citizen, he rather uneasy. He never said anything but locomotives and butter in his life, and he would sell the citizens he owned. He did not want to sell the locomotives works. But the citizens were very unaware of Mr. Rogers' intimate friends was perished in the fire before him and the old gentleman said he would sell the over. After due reflection he announced that he would sell the works, but only on his own terms. These were that a board of appraisers named by himself, another by the intended purchaser and a third by either named by himself, another by the two appraisers already. Then the purchaser was to put up a bond to accept the factory at an appraiser. It didn't want any more for the factory that is worth. said Mr. Rogers, it the company would not expect to get for less. Under the circumstances you could guarantee that you mean business. it was all in vain that the citizens and his friends appealed to him to see that no one would be so hard to basls. Those were his terms, he said when they were ready to talk business. There were negotiations that later came near. He was rumors now that Mr. Rogers has lent and that he has seen his way to make an arrangement that he first suggested. Of course Paterson has been in a fervent over Mr. Rogers affairs ever since the war. He has been told old stories that had been told about Mr. Rogers and his doings were raked over some of them bear the unmistakable stamp of be the product of long-lived MR. BOGER'S FRIENDSHIP One of the Patterson stories about Mr. Rogers is that his home is a veritable rats nest of disorder and raggedness, and he is a very tired on this specimen. The stuffed mouse is the plaque of the neighbor who have not been invited into his house. It may be the case that a very tired rat on the doorstones. But at any rate it is Rogers' accordion and loosely built as it may seem to be on the outside, as is Rogers' accordion and loosely built as it could have for his declining days. So far is he from being afraid to let anybody see what the inside of his house is like. Rogers' accordion is the most liberal fashion. It is noteworthy that he seems particularly to like to sit on the only intimate friend Mr. Rogers was had in Paterson was the late Henry V. Rogers was to Mr. Rogers himself and the butlers frequently visited him. They spent days on there the whole summer through. This friendship between Mr. Rogers and the family has continued since Mr. Butler's death, and in spite of the old gentleman's life than in that of the young people. But they租房 business to himself and Paterson has been able to get very little comfort out of the friendship is so strong. "What do you want?" he said once to a woman, who then him with a ajoor "for a worthy cause." "Money, lots of money," cried the woman, vryaciously. matter. "What did you come to me for?" he asked. "Because I knew you had such lots of friends," he said. "Young woman, "that I thought you could spare a little bit of it." "Got a sealman, Mr. Kroger. Then why did you say you were going to see old man Rogers today, but wouldn't do any good? I wouldn't for the world disappoint a lady. Good afternoon."

Of course it is necessary for a man of Moberly's property holds to do business with a man who has been inspired with such a thorough-going spirit that they are afraid to go near him. It has been found that only one man in all the town who can get along with him in a bus a business man is Barbour. It is even said of Col. Barbour that he has more than once negotiated for the sale of the locomotive works. Col. Barbour has been called the man who has finally reached it will always be ment is finally reached it will always be ment matter may be, that 'boi' Barbour was the one who brought the old man.

Defe Defective Page EXPOSES FEATS OF MAGIC A HELPER EXPLAIN A NUMBER OF OF OF OF HELMWAN spectacular Illusions Were the Simplest of All and Decided the Committees Selected to Watch the Work. Hudson Everett, who is awaiting sentence in jail at Detroit, is one of the brightest youths that has been seen here for years. He was one of "changing." Mme Herrmann's diamonds into second-class jewels, "full of imperfections," as an expert, testified, he naturally gravitated toward the man. He is twenty-one years old or thereafter, born in Americus, Ga., and from the town of Burlington, about he was employed at the theater in that town, running errands etc. Prof. and Mrs. Herrmann, the master of the black art picked the boy up. Since he Everett has led the country in the arts, country with the lake Herrmann, his widow, Kellar, Bancroft and other magistrates, he has heightened and sharpened by his life. Although he is almost devoid of education, he is a man of great strength. The other night he sat in the county jail, surrounded by a group of officers who were trying to himself over to reminiscences of Herrmann the Great, and explaining the mysteries of the tricks which astounded him and the persons all over the United States. How simple are the mysteries of the great magician—when they have been of have ing it A GENINE TESTIMONIAL solved by Herrmann's assistant. How near to detection are the magicians all the time? STROBIKA EXPOSED. Take, for instance, the trick "Strokake." Played by Herrmann a few years ago, the magician is instructed to form about four by six feet. This is suspended several feet from the floor. The audience can see all about it. The audience is directed at the audience, which, by the way, is a genuine committee, without any knowledge of the trick. The man, picked from the audience, is caught, a steel band is placed about his neck and locked, and his feet are placed in locks and locked, all by the committee. The taints are drawn for an instant. They are opened and the man is gone. In his office, the assistant may be, as securely locked as was the man. The committee has to use its keys to release her. The committee has to secure the attendant's attentions are closed, are able to see entirely around the platform, above, below and around the committee, really as much puzzled as the audience. "That's easy," chuckled Ewert last night. "It's hard to explain." In扮 in advance. He is laid out on the platform and shackled by the committee. Before the trick is set "set" June. Herrmann is in a post in each corner, from which curtains are strung. When the trick is set, the man is on the left hand post. The curtains, when opened, fold around her and hide her. The minute the curtains are closed, the man with a key which opens the locks at once. The man takes her place and she lies down and drowses the locks. The curtains are opened and hide the man. CLEVER SLEIGHT OF HAND. "The best trick Mme. Hermann does is the billard ball trick, and that's pure sleight of hand. The trick, as the auctions of hand, is the billard ball tricks at different times from the air, and holding; them between the fingers of one hand. It's a hard trick because her fingers are smaller than a man's." Three of the balls are genuine solid balls, which are made of rubber, which, from the audience, looks like a rubber ball. tween the thumb and first finger of the left hand. Every time she wipes her left hand round and produces another ball she is getting the next one out of a pocket at her side with her other hand. She makes a palm at her left hand with the right hand she conceals another genuine ball in the half shell. Then when she waves her left hand around again she drops the other fingers and shows an extra ball. GROWING FLOWERS "That little trick where she produces a paper flower from a plain sheet of paper or a plain sheet of paper she carries a bag of flowers in the bosom where she is waving the sheet of paper over the sheet into a loop in the bag, and draws a thumb into a loop from the sheet into a cornecopia, breaks the flowers roll out. That trick is done by nearly all of the sleight-o-hand perform- "Her duck trick is done with a trick table. She pulls a lot of paper ribbons out of the bag and puts them on the table. Then she pulls the 'humdul dles' and grabs up the paper ribbons. She jerks out a live duck and runs down to the table. She puts the duck previously put into a cloth bag and a stick run through some rings at the top, closing the bag, and the duck and bag fall off the table. When she clicks on the paper she pulls the stick and the bag opens and lets the duck out of the prettiest tricks that "the old man" (Hudson used) the term loving. RENSO "SWING" AND "BILLEY" TRICKS "The famous swink" trick that the old man used to do with the madame is easy. "The madame knew, was put on a chair and raised on up the air. Herrmann fired a pistol, and the madame disappeared, the chair dropping to the floor. That's done with a black back, you know. "Mrs. Herrmann is dressed in white and shows very plainly against the black shirt. She sits on a false bottom. The ropes that raise her pass under the false bottom. When they commence to raise her she holds the chair with her feet, and when they lift up the side, as some people think, because her light dress would be lifted into the side, the shot is fired it holds the attention of the audience for an instant, and in that brief space of a time a couple of Black dresses is worn, and a light dresses. The audience thinks she has dissolved, and cheers when the professor runs down to the footlights with the ropes. "The Trilby" trick done by Herrmann Jr. shows a man mesmerized and laid out on an ordinary plank. The plank is placed on two chairs. Herrmann Jr.waves his wand and one end of the plank raises and rests on thin air. He waves MINNESOTA 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 olique. 6-It asks no support but the people. "The Escape from Sing Sing" always worried the audience. In that two cages were shown. Herrmann called for a prisoner, and the guard brought ope. He drew him into a cage, and drew the curtain back from an instant. Then he fired a pistol raised the curtain. The prisoner was gone and the guard stood in his place. The prisoner immediately ran down from the back of the audience. Herrmann cried: "You won't get away this time," and put him into the second cage. This was raised clear up to the ceiling. Instantly the curtains drop from the first cage on the floor and the prisoner is there. The cage in the air is shown empty. "This is the trick: The stage is set for a prison scene, with gray background, barred cages, etc. The two cages are made with screens, the same color as the cage, and the same size as the centers. There are two prisoners made up alike. The guard is standing in the back half of the first cage when he sees the audience. The curtains are drawn down in the cage top an instant, he changes place with the prisoner, and pulls the dividing screen in the case to the background, but in reality the audience sees the guard in the case, and thinks it sees clear through the case to the background, but in reality the audience sees the guard which hides the prisoner. The second prisoner comes running down from the audience thinking him the first-case scenario, and when this is closed and drawn up to the ceiling he is getting into the back half of the screen, the gray curtain. The platot shot is fired, the prisoner and he is gone, apparently, the audience thinking it sees through the cage, while in it the duplicate prisoner is shown in the first cage on the floor." The man says he is going to serve his terms, but when he gets out will go on the road and duplicate any trick the other magicians do. HOW DID THE CHICKEN GO? Jury Had to Decide Whether It Flew or Hopped. "Did the chicken fly or did it hop?" For ten hours Wednesday this question was gravely argued before Judge Herrick an in the supreme court, Brooklyn. The judge hated hours to further deliberate upon it. At the end of that time they decided that the chicken had hopped and brought in a dog. The case was that of Morris Clirano against the Brooklyn Heights railroad. The dog was a Fulton stent car, and when rear to corner of Ralph avenue he signaled the dog and he began to alight. One hand Clirano carried some pickles, while in the other a bag in which he had a live chicken. The plainfluff sword that when he hid it ended it to go ahead. The car gave a sudden lurch and he was thrown violently to the company in its defense all-red the Cipriano did not signal the conductor to stop the barge, the plainfluff, in his desire to recover it. It jumped off the car while it ploughed, a policeman and another wifes sword they saw the chicken hop out and had been sent carrying into the street.

The Editorial Page. Noticeably few seem to understand what is meant by the editorial page and what page it signifies. The editorial page of a newspaper is the paper in which it speaks for itself of its own opinions and in its own language. It is usually made prominent either by larger type or wider spacing. The articularity of the formally headed, the shorter ones appears close to paragraphs, and usually some notice or remarks or small items are run in with the same type and spacing marking the whole editorial part. These, unless credited, are not supposed to be original work of the editor. In the leading articles it is supposed that he not only gives his real opinions on the subject mentioned, but that he expresses them in the best language and the most effective manner at his command. When the editor has said this, believed that or advocated another thing, the editorial column is alone authority, as that alone authority part of the paper is supposed to give the news and accounts of current events and doings with explanations and perhaps side talks, giving them shade or character to political or other views taken of them. It is also important that speaks only through the editorial column. The editorial column is usually headed by the name of the paper, some notice of its ownership and some circulation, or items particularly belonged to, and spoken of by the paper, and a one-column date line. This is the usual introduction. The place of the column is usually on one of the inner pages, but certain New York journals have set the style of putting the editorial page, which is wholly an innovation. The page of the editorial pages or more put the editorial column on the second page. This is rare. It is usually on the left hand page of the paper as you open it, on an even numbered page, not very common, but that page are not very common, but that page are by editors being filled with selected articles, original or clipped, for the general reader.-Milwaukee Journal.

TRAMP MADE HER HIS HEIR TRAMP MADE HER HIS HEIR OMAHA WOMAN BEFRIENDS A KNIGHT OF THE ROAD AND IS REWARDED BENEFICIARY OF ORAL WILL Mrs. Emmia Cargill, of Omaha, has entertained an angel- unawares. Prompted by sympathy, she gave food and shelter to the girl, whom she cared for a week, when a later week, he died in her house she found herself sole beneficiary of nis which meant a sugum in cash, more than made by keeping boarders in ten years. The will is not valid under the Nebraska law, but been no rival heiress to content her claim, and the present indication are that she in undisputed possession of her windfall. One evening during the recent cold spell a poor old wanderer, bent under the burial of his years' care, asked the angil's home for a bed. He was and sick, and his voice trembled as he said: "have been trying all day to find shelter, and they all turn me away because they think I've got the smallpox." As there was a peculiar rash on the skin, Mrs. Cargill could easily believe this. "And I am ill," he continued. "God will reward you, my good woman." Having nothing but the stranger's word that his aliment was not smallpox, Mrs. Cargitt took him in, gave him a bed on his back, and then he was able to take. Then he handed her a parcel wrapped in a soiled newspaper and tied with a greasy string. It looked much like a jacket of old letters. "Keep this until I get well," he said, "and never get well-if I should die—keep it." The never get well will. This was the stranger's will. Flacing the package on a window sill, he turned to the time being, passed from her mind. During the next few days the patient spoke but little, but Mrs. Cargill managed to learn that his name was J. W. Myers, and that he was seventy-six years old. He had never married. From his brother, he learned that he was the time he left Connecticut, he had not heard in the thirty-two years, and he was the early man he had been wild and later kept much to himself, having lived for the last five years the life of a recase on his homestead near Lamar to. He was the property into money and started for the intending to go to a hospital but observing that his malady was likely to proceed to the plans. He dreaded the pest house, he said. He wanted to "die like a Chris" and made a house-house case in queen of a good Samaritan, whom he at last found in the person of Mrs. Cargill. On the seventh day after his arrival at the Cargill cell J. W. Myers died. Mrs. Cargill notified the coroner, and Mrs. Cargill handed the coronary to a removal of the body she chanced upon the greasy package on the window sill. She opened with hangug interest, which soon gave way to a thrill of excitement, for the parcel contained $1,600 in treasury notes—100 $10 bills. Out of this sum she paid the old man's doctor, who has deposited the remainder she has deposited in a bank. She says she hopes no heirs will present themselves to claim it, as she wants to use it in the education of her little daughter, who has displayed considerable talent in music. HOW KING EDWARD FIRST MET QUEEN ALEXANDRA Many charming stories have been told concerning the preliminaries of the formal engagement of the then Prince Victoria and the then Prince of Wales, recording to one story, Queen Victoria's youthful heir-apparent first saw his mother, the Duchess of Cambridge. Being left in her bourbon for a few moments, the prince-according to this tale-was taken to the court, where he met on her table; it was that of a very lovely girl whose beauty much struck the future king. Not liking to ask his cousin to come to the court, she sent a friend to make the inquiry for him, and was informed that the portrait was that of the Duchess of Cambridge's niece, Princess Alexandra of Denmark. Whether this story be true or not, the story is not clear. The mentious meeting between Edward VII, and the queen took place in the beautiful old cathedral of Worms, Princess Alexandra's only seventh cousin. The royal courtship took place. King Leopold of Belgium's charming country palace of Laken, and it was there, very shortly, that the daughter of the prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cambridge, first saw her future daughter-in-law. The Lostion of Bread. Once Trees Flour was produced in the early days of the colonies by breaking it with a hand and pressing it into a dough proved upon the Indian method by rigging up an apparatus like a winnih of a spoon. The dough was then introduced, and finally the grist stone succeeded the laborious pestle and mortar. There was no knowledge of the process of baking powders as cooks knew it. Hats in the cause of Commens. Speaker Denison, if he saw a member wear any unwonted headgear other than the regulation tail hat, would send for the headgear to be fitted. In these days a billy-cook hat has frequently been seen in one particular quarter of the house, and the innovation is tolerated. What Speaker Denison would have said or thought if he had seen a few straw hats in the extremely hot weather of last session the writer cannot venture even further. He calls the curious custom which prevails that when a member wishes to interpose with a point of order after the question has been put from the chair he must speak "covered." On one occasion Mr. Gladstone wished to speak in this way, and he was obliged to house, he was obliged hastily to borrow a hat. It happened that the hat which he borrowed be onged to his then solicitor-general, Sir P. Herschell (afterward the land chancellor), and it proved to be far too small for Mr. Gladstone's head. He was unable for some time to address the coming to the start of laughter which his appearance called forth. - Good Words. --- YOU READ THE APPLE THE APPEAL.

SATURDAY, MARCH 23, 1901. The famous or infamous Seely dinner has been discounted in the staid old city of Brotherly Love. A masquerade was given in a private house last Monday night, but from tips given to the police a raid was made by the police and as a result seventeen Afro-Americans were arrested in various stages of disabille. One man wore a small section of a rag carpet, while a woman was wrapped in a red table-cloth, which had hastily been denoted when the police entered. Another man wore a piece of feminine underclothes, while still another wore a similar covering plus a corset. All the prisoners were sent to the house of correction. But what was done with the white gentlemen (?) who were the promoters of the disgraceful orgle? Then Chicago not to be outdone had a "stag" at Masonic Temple in which a well-known woman performer wound up a round of vaudeville specialties by giving the dans du ```markdown ``` THE LORD OF THE RING ventre occupying three-quarters of an hour, beginning in Oriental costume, but disrobing piece by piece as she executed her lascivious, sensuous muscle dance until she only wore the serene consciousness of satisfaction with her achievement. One of the "stags" about sixty years of age was so overcome by his emotions of rapture, disgust, remorse or whatever they were that he threw the dancer a ten dollar gold piece and fainted. Half of the other "stags" present crowded around the dancer and offered to take her out to supper, but 'tis said after accepting all the invitations she went home alone. All these parties were white. Judge Clint, of the district criminal court of Dallas, Texas, this week made a special and lengthy charge to the jury commissioners on the question of Afro-Americans serving on juries and among other things said: "Negroes have as much right to serve under the law as any other race and you should bear this in mind, not to the extent, however, that you should go out of your way in order to procure the names of Negroes who are qualified jurors. The higher courts have held that convictions cannot stand when a Negro is the defendant if it is shown that the jury commissioners refused to consider the names of Negroes in making up their lists. I don't mean that a grand jury must be made up entirely of Negroes or that any Negroes are to be selected, but in selecting the names no one should be excluded because he is a Negro." The judge is entitled to much credit for being as fair as he is in this matter. Fairness is all we want in any case. They say one of the main reasons the Afro-American is not accorded equal rights and privileges with his white brother is his lack of education and refinement. Well, how can he become educated and refined when every obstacle possible is thrown in his way to block his progress? He has not the same school facilities and is ostracised and ignored generally when he tries to seek refinement by rubbing against his refined white brother. He dare not express himself on the general topics of the day for fear of his life. Only last week, as a sequel to the burning of John Henderson, down in Texas, the Afro-Americans near Corbet were warned to leave the neighborhood in forty-eight hours and their houses were fired into and finally the school house was burned. Yet the claim is made we are not educated and refined. FORESIGHT. A Singing Girl. As they cannot trump up a charge of rape against some poor Afro-American man so as to indulge in their usual pastime of lynching, they have begun to lynch Afro-American women. Last Saturday night a mob went to the home of Belle Coutchfield, near Rome, Tenn., took her from it, carried her to a bridge over Round Lick creek, tied her hands behind her, shot her through the head and threw her body Elsie—I do wi the third finger o Victorine—So one time now. into the creek. She had not committed rape nor murder, but was only SUSPECTED of looting a pocketbook which had been lost containing $120. The coroner's jury returned a verdict that the woman came to her death at the hands of unknown parties. And this is a land where justice is supposed to prevail. Senator Gorman, of Maryland, is determined to go back to the United States Senate and he has shaped the legislation of the present session of the Maryland legislature so as to pass SIGHT.

There are 44,923 illiterate voters in Maryland. Of these 26,616 are black and 18,307 are white. Even if the same proportion of whites and blacks are eliminated the result will be a net gain of 8,000 votes to the Democrats, which will be enough to carry any state election unless there is a land-slide.

Lankins, pastor of the church, is also one of the editors and manager of the Washington department of the Banner, a national Baptist newspaper published in Philadelphia.

Peyton, President S. Miller of the Baptist Union, and others sent a letter of thanks to Mr. Saks for his generous gift. Marie Bathon is the name given by a comely young woman in black, about twenty-one years of age, who was sent to the House of Detention Monday night by Detective Horne. On Feb. 4, George J. Hoffmann, of the firm of Hoffmann Brothers, 535 Harrison Street, Anacostia, reported that seventies had been stolen from his home, and days prior to the complaint, including earrings, pearl opera glass, a diamond and a gold piece, valued in all at $41. Miss Bathon, it is stated, visited the house about the time of the alleged theft, detective Horne obtained information which enabled him to trace her to the first precinct, where he placed her under arrest and took her to police headquarters. She denied the theft but seemed apparently indifferent to her position. When the House of Deartments arrived at police headquarters it contained an elderly crippled woman and a young girl. She declined to ride inside the vehicle with the prisoners, and declare that she preferred to sit on the boy beside the driver. The latter demurred, but she insisted, and on her own invitation, climbed up and rode up the avenue beside the driver of the car.

A Girl's Best Counselor Is Her Father. "Hir Father. "Trust your father's judgment of your men friends rather than them open at first," writes Helen Watterson McGill to girls, in the December Ladies' Home Journal. "The gay, witty, responsive young man who will probably attract you, will not be the one who will be likely to have his serious consideration and respect. Talk over your men friends with your father, and see what healthy unemotional, sane man standards he will set up for you. I really think if a girl could have but one counselor in her father's affairs, would better be her father's friend. A man's mind is a great tonic to the somewhat diluted intellect of a girl in her first sentimental experiences." ```markdown ``` DOINGS IN AND ABOUT WITH GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

NELL GWYNNE. M. ALBERTA GALLATIN Probably the most intensely interesting, and certainly the most romantic period in English history, was that of the restoration of the Stuarts to the throne in 1537. Charles the Second fell madly in love with "Nell Gwynne" at the Drury Lane Theatre. The king's infatuation for this boy-designed amazement throughout all England, his devotion to the venerable cause of all this disturbance, ruled the devil-may-care-king, and, in fact, "All Merry England." She was not only a capable actress but a beauty as well, whose wit, repatriate, generosity and his devotion to the king became of the highest importance. Indians have vied with one another in their description of the doings at the Count of King Charles while "Nell Gwynne" was in power, and now the dramatist is exploiting "Nell Gwynne" versions more or less authentically based upon English history. Two plays of this kind are running in London to enormous business. In New York city one theatre is being built to the doors, while others are making arrangements to present "Nell Gwynne" plays. Alberta Gallatin, the youngest, prettiest, and probably the most capable American leading women, appears here in her own version of "Nell Gwynne" in her book *The Real Nell* (1992). Heverin of Philadelphia. This play is replete with wit and comedy, and still embraces romantic situations in abundance. Miss Gallatin is to be seen here in what the newspapers of Montreal are pleased to term "The Real Nell."

The Washington Afro-Americans seem to place great stress upon Christian principles as the only bright star inevitable to the solution of the race problem if the Afro-American deserts his guide, namely, the maker of men, he will have no future to look forward to.

CARD OF THANKS We desire to thank our friends who so kindly assisted us in the sickness and death of our beloved husband and brother, especially Mr. W. A. Vera, of Minnesota K. of P. lodge. May the God of all comfort keep in perfect safety and in the line of duty all the members of this lodge until the coming home of us all to the great Shepherd's. Sincerely yours. The British and the Boers at Pieters Hill were crouching behind bowlers scattered over a wide surface. The moment a man on either side emerged from his cover he was at once the target of the enemy's bullets. A Boer, partly, it seemed, in bravado, made a sudden sally to join a neighbor. An Englishman who had long watched the rock and was becoming sick with hope deferred, took aim and brought the daring one down. So delighted was he with his rock that he showed himself in his back behind the shallow shelter of his bowler and kicked his heels into air. In his transport his heel rose above the rock, as he was instantly made aware by a bullet transfixing his Buttering引擎—New York Tribune.

PAN AMERICAN EXPOSITION Nothing since the World's Fair, at Chicago, in 1898, has elicited the widespread interest that is manifest, all the world, in the Pan-American Exposition, in the United States to be held in Buffalo, from May 1st to November 1st, 1901. The purpose of the Exposition is to illustrate the progress of the country from form hemisphere during a century of growth, and to bring together into closer relationship the people composing the many States, Territories and countries of the three Americas, the United States authority, the President of the United States, has vited all the republics and colonies of the American hemisphere to join in commemorating the close of the nineteenth and beginning of the Twentieth century by holding this International Exposition, on the Niagara frontier. For this important event, the Nickel Plate Road has issued an attractive descriptive folder pamphlet, elaborate batting, the Pan-American Exposition, and the Nickel Plate, Road is the short line between Chicago and Buffalo, and affords competent train service from Chicago to Buffalo, New York City, Boston and all points East, with which of modern equipment, on which no other team can play, cars on the individual club plan, ranging in price from 35 cents to $1.

Calahan, General Agent, III Adams street, Chicago, Ill. During the campaign last year a determined effort was made by Harvey Thompson, S. A. T. Watkins, Lawrence Newby, H. C. Carter and other so-called Democrats pretending to represent Afro-Americans of that faith, to induce them to vote, to them a place on the ticket, "Bob" Burke would not entertain the proposition and hence the effort was abandoned. Democrats will not accord Afro-Americans representation on their ticket and hence do not desire to represent the moment of the race. The Republican go are always willing to give the race representation on the county and senatorial tickets. All Afro-Americans should, therefore, vote and work for the election of Judge Haney. The mayoralty campaign of the Republican nominees for city offices, headed by Judge Elhridge Haney, has alarmed the Harrison-Burke gang to such an extent that the latter have attempted to add new life and vigor to the fight of the "the of destiny," for two years more of official existence, and enthusiastic meetings are being held in the city, the wards of the city and the people are being thoroughly aroused against the gang now in the city hall. That's the whole story of the minnibal. And there's no limit, either on style, size or cost, every worthy sort. Every worthy sort finds representation here — some — and gets full money's worth.

JEFFERSON Judge Haneyc's platform is clear, sucinct and honorable and certainly should meet with the unqualified endorsement of every good citizen of the city, as is elected member of this great city he promises an honest, economical and business administration of public affairs. A faithful, fair and honest enforcement of the civil service law and the merit system is as elected member of the administration of the police from politics and political influence. The exaction of full and fair compensation for franchises and special privileges. Correction of abuses in the special assessment system is as elected member of "money" from the criminal classes and no special protection for them. To keep the streets and alleys perfectly clean and abolish the fee system in the city departments. To avoid fraud, candid and essential to the future progress and welfare of Chicago, and will meet with the approval of every fair-minded citizen of the city. Carter Hannon has in office been fairly tried by the people and certainly he has been found wanting. Has he given us a business administration? He has given Chicago a thug and gang administration. Is it a fact that the schools of Chicago are the police force itself honey-combed with fraud and corruption? Are not the criminal classes held up and blackmailed? Are not the streets alloys in a most disgraceful and impure manner? Are they all aliens? Are wives and daughters of citizens safe upon the streets after dark? Every good citizen of Chicago has made ashamed of the disgraceful and impure women of free-booters, and the vote on April 2nd will prove that the people are disgusted with the gang. The Republicans of the Second ward, Judge Hacey's home ward, promises to astonish Republican leaders by rolling up the largest majority for the Judge and the entire ticket ever given in the ward before. The Second ward will with earnest and intelligent workers and will make good the promise. The ladies of Chicago, regardless of race, color or religion, should give the crusade started by Judge Hance against vice and crime their hearty support. The judge's success at the polls on April 2nd will mean the absolute purification of Chicago, without infringing upon the rights and privileges of any class of the people. Afro-Americans living in the various towns of Chicago should see to that they, one and all, vote the right way. Theocratic success in Chicago will be a great encouragement to the "lynching and burning" Democracy of the South. The Inter-Ocean last Sunday contained scathing and convincing statement from Ex-Gov. Altgeld against the Harrison administration, furnishing facts and figures of the ex-communist and dianostics of the gang now controlling the affairs of the city hall. Alderman Charles Alling, renominated by the Republicans of the Second ward, will, beyond all question, will continue to city count where he will continue to serve the people's rights. Mr. Alling is an able, conscientious and fearless champion of just and honest legislation—he will vote for a larger majority than he was two years ago. Vote for Alderman Alling. Every vote in the South town should vote for the town council. The splendid record made by the town officers in managing the affairs of the South town is pleasing to every good citizen regardless of party. No salience has disgraced the proceedings of the town council. Rolls have aroused the indignation of the people. Honesty and open and fair dealing has characterized everything the town board. The last town administration under the Democrat was disgraceful in the extreme. The records in the city hall, it is said, will show that the present administration in the past four years has used up $2,400,000 more than the two illustrations four years previous! Where is this $900,000 you pay? No wonder that taxes are higher! And no one need be surprised that the taxpayers are loud in their complaints of the burdens of taxation! Under Haney, if elected mayor of Chicago, you would be singing and the people will know what the money is being spent for—therefore, vote the Republican ticket! South town voters should not fail to vote for Pflaum for assessment, Anderson for collector, Norris for supervisor and Jefferson for clerk. They are all good men! Assistant County attorney L. B. Anderson has actively entered the campaign and is nightly making speeches for Judge Haney. It is a matter of general congratulation that fewer Afro-American ams now supporting Carter Harrison that in his last two campaigns This class of Chicago's citizenship has been convinced that the pledges and promise of Burke do not amount to anything whatever, therefore they are heart-soul for Judge Haney. The panel-house Democracy of Chicago finds that even respectable Democrats do not wish to see Harrison elected mayor of this great city. "Ma'am, I am a Democrat who can war and a life-long Democrat he denounced Harrison and is actively aiding the Republicans to victory. ST. PAUL MOST WORSHIEFEL GRAND LODGE — OF MINNESOTA, A. F. AND A.
