Her new law requires the prosecution extinction of that form of gambling part of the deputy collectors of intentional revenue charged with the duty of hunting down the "bucket shop" and enforcing the penalties provided in the new law. A "bucket shop," in brief, is an imitation broker's office where speculators, between the fluctuations in the prices of the gold, are advised to price the gold of Trade. There is no uproar about the price of the gold, and the sense of an actual transfer of the commodities to any speculator by the proprietor of the "shop," as is done in legal imitate brokers' offices. There might be $1,000,000 worth of "business" done every day in "bucket shops" without affecting the price of the gold. The price of the gold, though, just as the amount of money wagered on a horse at a race track would not affect the value of the horse. The forms of "buying" and "selling" wheat, corn or whatever is supposed to be sold, are retained in the bucket shop, but they are not the same as the stock of stuff, simply because the proprietor of the place hasn't any. All he has is money, like the banker in a faro game. A speculator comes in and "buys" 10,000 bushels of wheat by putting up $10 for margrins. In his best case, the price of the "buying" is 10,000 bushels. If it does drop 1 cent before he desires to quit his $10 is "wiped out" and goes into the safe of the "bucket shop." If it goes up a half a cent or 1 cent the speculator wins $500 or $100 and the proprietor turns it over to him, less 20,000. The price of the "take off" of the horse. Of course, it is the difference of opinion. In speculators which makes the game last. Some of them at the same time will "sell" in-trend of buying—that is, they will bet that it will not go up in price, and when it comes to the price of the "take off" of the horse, Thus the speculators in the "bucket shop" might "buy" more wheat than there is in the country twice over without affecting the price a sixteenth of a cent, because their transactions are nowhere recorded and are merely bets on how the price will fluctuate. Nothing changes hands except the money wagered. MUST REGISTER LOCATIONS. Now comes the new internal revenue law which provides that every such establishment shall pay a license fee or £5 to the government. shall make a report of the revenue, and only of the location of its place of business and the names of its employees, but shall place 2-cent revenue stamp upon the proprietors are required to keep books containing the trades," issuing slips bearing such stamps to the customers. The proprietors are required to keep books containing the name of the speculator, which shall be subject to the inspection of the collector of internal revenues at all times. The proprietors are provided that the payment of these taxes in a muddy any state laws directed against this business. that is where the show pinches. Inasmuch that is not only but the bucket stores," but that the law makes it mandatory upon the judges in the criminal court to call the attention of every grand jury to that law, the payment of these taxes is of fame most of the time. If use proprietors should make the records required by this new law for the collector they must pay the state law, and no one expects them to do that. This is how the section of the law applying to "bucket shops" reads: "Just how we will go about the collection of these taxes is a matter not yet fully determined," said Chief Justice Robert S. Bentley, who cross when we come to it. Just now it looks like a case of 'first catch your bucket shop.' Of course, it is hardly unusual to see a judge admit that they are engaged in a business, which is contrary to the state law, but we have never connected with the internal revenue department who are the brokers of the brokerage business, and we do not anticipate any trouble in finding out places if they attempt to continue to do so. But regard to this new air of congress," NIAGARA FALLS Plessant Run From Buffalo to the Awe-Inspiring Cataract. No one coming to the Pan-American exposition will want to miss seeing Niagara Falls. It will interest wheel局, especially to know that there is a good, smooth road leading from Buffalo to this world-famous cataract. This road is almost level for the entire distance, and the ten miles to Tonawanda, one of the largest lumber ports in the world, are over asphalt and brick pavements. From the lumber city the wheelmen will find fine cycle paths with but little road riding, which is very good. At Echeta, just before reaching Niagara Falls, the large industrial plants are seen when have spring up since the Niagara Falls power has been developed. A visit can be made to the power house which furnishes the power for all of these large establishments, and also sends its light and power to the Pan-American exposition, a distance of less than twenty miles. Turning to the left, after passing these industries, one enters the New York state reservation, where the beauties of the sadips and cutaract are spread out before one's eager gaze in all their grandeur. Spirit Science in Old Age Surest Solution In Old Age. Aside from the creatures comforts of life, the happiness of old age. In fact the wealthiness wealth is acquired at the sacrifices of those things which are conductive to peace in declining years. Devotion to business frequently becomes so absorbing as to embitter domestic relations, starve the mind, blunt the tastes and weaken the spirit, and that those who accumulate fortune are disappointed in those things that money alone can bring, and thus unable to appreciate the blessings and comforts that are within the reach of all. These are the reasons why Mr. Schwab, president of the United States Steel corporation, who advised the boys of a New York school a few evening ages, to let *l.e.g.* education go to the winds, and take an early start in business careers. This advice is based on the fact that everything in life worth having-or at least the best things—may be purchased. One of the most pitiful things in the world is the well-to-do man who has "lost his grip," and who is unable to regain his grip. "And who is unable to regain his grip," he says, "of knowledge and an appreciation of the things in life which are intrinsically good.

STRIKE ORGANIZED LABOR BILLION DOLLAR STEEL TRUST REYLIC WHAT IF THE MAIN PIPE SHOULD BURST? Ivita, Balaicer岛, Special Correspondence, May 1—None of our party can tell why we have taken a greater interest in the Balaicer group than to any of the richer and more populous islands, but the fact remains that we unanimously held to this dirty, poverty-stricken little speck in the Mediterranean, investigating the rest of the archipelago. We find that all the few travelers who come to these forgotten islands seem possessed of the same unexplainable fascination with the picturesque is so completely satisfied here with varied and beautiful scenery and because the comparatively univilized island, making no attempt to imitate the picturesque, has no trust to accustomed things; and the chief delight in wandering over the world, you know, lies in seeing what does not exist at home. We only about twenty-five miles by thirteen wide, and is covered with steep mountains, inclosing the valley- BILLION S T REHLE WHAT the latter inconveniently fertile, because of the torrents rushing everywhere down the hillsides. It contains but one town, its port and capital, which is also named it, but generally hereabouts at 43 km². It has walls and quant fortifications cling to a steep hillside, overhanging a deep, comodious bay. The ancient Romans, who long possessed it, called the place Eubaus. In the course of centuries and uninterrupted occupation, on most European maps is to-day written Ivica. Its population is probably about 7,000, while that of the whole island—which is really one continuous, straggling village, being divided into many parishes, in houses—does not exceed 30,000. It is strange that Ivira should be so rarely visited as to have passed almost only of the memory of man, lying, as it does, only six miles from the coast of Africa, but more than a mile almost on the main highway of the sea between the Strait of Gibraltar and the Sues canal, directly in the track of thousands of steamers that never call. Perhaps its reputation for insalubriety has something to do with this extraordinary coast, which is very famous. Ivira town is one of the dirtiest on earth and a very hotbed of sickness. While all the rest of the archipelago is as a sanitary for healthfulness, the towns surpassing even Holland for immaculate cleanliness. Ivira alone is haunted the streets of the city, among the术恤里, scarletia, typhoid, amphitheatre, fever—indeed, every disease peculiar to childhood and to the tropics. The cause is purely—or should we say impurely—local, directly traceable to abounding fifth and absence of municipal regulations into the streets and the gutternal reek with fifth of every variety. Mediterranean titles are very slight, and as a natural consequence the beautiful harbor-choked with decaying garbage, dead animals and all manner of abinations—is more important than the waterfront of Havana in the palmest day of Spanish methods. The town has always been in this condition, and the mortality, especially among children, enormous, but the people attribute it to a dispensation of Prokly and the careful way of criminal满意. In the case of a study, the whole practice of the house of the family to assemble in the h�th and then show a trace of the dead, and then show what the family of the dead was.

Thus no villages in the world are more delightfully clean. Seen from afar, their snow-white walls against a dark background of chestnut or olive green, they like fair abodes of purest marble; and their walls are covered with tulches' of old, being treated merely on the outside, but the interiors are equally ammaclacate. Speaking of the women's chatter—the language of the Baterieer is a linguistic whole resembling no other on the globe. The people they speak are special to the cavalier, the commander is a marshal to philologist, composed of words from the Gothic, Greek, Arabic, Latin, Phoenician, with modern French, all in the sandwiched in perhaps all in the dwarfish dwarfs whose origin no philologist has yet been able to determine. This is not so much wonder, remembering what a mongol population it is, the islands having been conquered and settled various periphery by all the nations of the earth, each island race still more. Hesperally in Ivita the inhabitants cling to the old-time native costumes, and are in character almost a counterpart of the turbulent among themselves, given to stern feathers, like the Corsican, but governed by Arab laws of hospitality as laid down in the Koran: "Whose bread I eat, whose wine I drink, whose hair He who tastes my taste is sacred; neither I nor my household shall attack him. I bring corn, wine and fruit for the feast; I bring the flowers and departs from the tents the fastest home. Let him who would go from the take the fleetest dromedary; reserve the lame one for myself." You receive the favored "stranger," you may journey unattended throughout the length and breadth of the islands, in perfect safety, so far as the people are concerned, whereas, if to the extent possible, you may peril of the robbers' sing or the murdered vendettia. Even little Iviza has its good roads for mule-back travel. There are few wheeled vehicles; but a delightful long day's jaunt in the saddle may be made from a pair of jeans, to the island, and to San Antonio, at its northern trymity; returning next day via San Jaunta Bautista. Though up hill and down dale by steepest grades, over bridges torrents and in places skirting the shoreline, the roads are narrow and the birds they would be overwhelmed by the tide if the Mediterranean had any—every yard of the way is shaded by magnificent oak trees and the bird trees, and the wild flowers that line the bridges, the simple, kindly people constantly met, make you believe that this is the acadia. The hill parts of Iviza are densely wooded, and in the tiny, pocket-like areas of the island, the trees are grown in wonderful luxurious though the lazy industries have hardly advanced a step beyond the methods of cultivation employed by the ancient Greeks, and numerous salt pans, formerly worked by the Spanish government, but now is the URST? hands of an English company. There are even some exports, such as charcoal, oil, wine, lead, almonds, carib beans and stockings of native knitting. On a hill on the coast of lovia, is placed one of the stations of the celebrated are of the meridian. One might write a volume about the curious customs of the islanders—some of them probably of prehistoric origin. Others are more modern, couples, out as publicly as possible. Like the grande dames of Washington, a Balaicar bell has her regular "evenings" at home, when all her suitors are ex-mergers, themselves en masse, and at no other time do the young girl is gagged by the number of hand, her relatives make a point of corraling as many eligibles as possible. The parents sit in the room, prefending to the young girl to do the doings of the young boy, but in reality tend to attention to that goes on. The girl sits on a sofa at one side of the room, and in a row of chairs ranged along the opposite wall the suitors dispose themselves, each with a gag, imagined. Each has his wrist, with utensils beginning at the end of the line nearest the east, the first-gentleman crosses the room, sits down beside the girl with his hand, and takes up ten minutes talks to her very much in tones audible to her alone. Of course he does his best to make as favorable an impression as possible in the short time allowed him. If he overtakes the young girl, he takes the due share of the young woman's attention the others remind him of it by boisterous coughing and scraping their feet upon the floor. Should he readily perish in the error of his ways, he is more than twice as much in collar and trousers seat and pitched out of doors. Incidents are common of suitors who would not heed the warning being murdered by engaged competitors. The crime are crude enough.

Nearly all the roads and bridges now in use were built by the Romans 2,000 years ago, and after that the structures are as solid as ever. The Roman ruins by point of means by a fort, and their castles were placed with infallible judgment in situations where they commanded the entrance to passes, the vital points of every road. The ponderous bridges, constructed in stone, frame the entrance and cement, seem invincible to time and everlasting hills. One of these ancient structures constructed about the time that Christ was born, leads through the main gateway to Iyza's medieval walls off into the country, and all day long it is the pedestrians and their donkeys, who, as usual, supply the Baleanic villages with water. Happily, there are few wheeled vehicles in these Acarian islands, and no heavy tires to cut up the roads. The unshod hoops of the little donkeys and the bare feet of the men make no impression upon the Roman ruins and grants of basalt, porphyry and granite. There are other rulers, much older than the Roman structures—so old, in fact that nobody knows their origin. Most of them are the form of round towers similar to those of the leonths and Megalithic inclosures—a subject too lengthy to touch upon at this time. Coming down to later times, but even before the time, are many fortified churches, which they often when even sanctuaries were not safe from depoiling noblemen and greedy brigands. Each ancient church is surrounded to thick, high walls, pierced as if to the depth of the sea, which the archers and later the muskeeters could aim; and occasionally a larger porthole is seen, indicating that someone was there to protect the monks and their property. The most important natural feature of Majorca, the largest island, are the famous Dragon cave, which are probably the largest cave in the world, have never been fully explored, the passages being intricate and almost innumerable, but some of them have been followed for twenty miles or more without coming to the end. The Baleares are undoubtedly of volcanic origin, though the Mediterranean fire burned out age-old, and have everywhere by caverns, overlies the volcanic rock. In the Dragon cave are dark, swift underground rivers, lakes of unknown depth and extent, and lofty rooftops which for miles are masses of glittering in. In exploring one of them we passed a cave called the Fraile, the "Friar," because of its resemblance to a cowled monk; crossed a strange section known as El Carbonaire, the "coal mines," where the walls blacken the hands like coal; walked beneath Las Aranas, the "chandelieres," immense cluseal like clustered candelabras; from the roof upon a promontory jutting out in precarious, unfenced fashion, upon a large subterranean lake. At this point the guide left us, taking his torch with him and leaving us in total darkness—only the rocks being enough for human nerves. Having come some rocks into the next cavern, he held his light amid the opposite stalactite in such a way as to illumine the "chandeliers" with wonderful effect. Below us stretched the still, transparent sheet of upon its mysterious bosom the fantastic columns and filigree work surrounding us. The most impressive of the caverns yet discovered is named El Negro. A lake of motionless water, whose extent is almost in obscurity and whose soundings make it possible to make, is surrounded by huge black as ink, while slither columns hang from above almost to the surface of the lake. It is a grueesome place, far below the surface of the earth, in total darkness which might be extinguished in the guide, and by what intricate passages we reached it, what unknown perils, we dared not imagine. The stalactites are of every shape and size. In one place the water is so turbulent that turrets and battements all complete. —Fannie B.

I used to do it myself, a good many years ago. There is one sound that a dog never forgets. It is the exclamation "I!" given very short and sharp. For instance, in teaching a dog to turn somersaults, a harness or rangement is generally used, and when you say "I" the dog knows that it has to turn over, whether it wants to or not. After a while it learns to associate the sound with the motion, and gradually the harness is discarded. I was walking along Eighth street the other day, and passed a dog that I recognized as having seen performing at a vaudeville theater. Just for fun I looked at him and said "I" Quick as a flash the dog turned a back somersault on the sidewalk much to the amusement of the people who were passing.

GAME NOT TO BE DESISED WHEN CORNERED BY THE HUNTER PLENTIFUL IN THE ROCKIES One of the Largest Ever Taken Alive Caught a Few Years Ago in Montann—Measured Fight Eyes. Denver Times. Naturalists assert that the mountain lion self-attacks man when being except in a attack, but that it is only half a truth. Hungry lions are no respecters of persons, and guant beasts of this species have been known to waylay and attack mountains almost at the 60s of their cabins. And when he has been cornered the mountain lion always with his paw, has been able to put up a mighty intention. No census has ever been taken of the American mountain lion, but according to a recent report, the mountain region 1,200 of him could be scaled up every season without making any appreciable difference in the supply. His fur is of different names, from Hispaniola to the Colombian and to the South American as the puma, and to Mexicans and North Americans as the cougar and the mountain lion. In apposition to the puma, he exact counterpart of the African lioness. His fur is of the tawny brown of the American house cat and without a "brush" at the top. He attains larger size in the north than in the south. His fur is also silver was caught a few years ago in Montana, and afterward exhibited in Columbia Gardens, at Butte. This specimen measured seven feet from snout. One measuring eight feet from tip to tip and weighing 300 pounds was killed in Bear Gulch, Jefferson county, Montana, in 1888, after he had mangled two men and slain three of a pack of seven hounds that had brought him to buy. The men who were injured were wood-choppers employed by the Glass Brothers, of Basin. They were up on a hillside cutting and trimming planes, which were then slid down into the gulch over the hard crust of a snow runaway. The runaway became jammed, and one of the choppers had started down the mountain to clear it. He was half way down when the mountain lion sprang upon his back from a clamp of bushes, where it had lain concealed, and rolled over and over with him until they brought up against the log jam. The chopper dropped his axe and one of his arms was broken in a fall. He shrieked lustily for help while struggling to free himself from the big, white beast, and his companion ran to stop him. He had the second man, shipped and-fehl, and he went spinning down the hillside. Soizing a young pine as a club the second chopper at-jacked the lion, raining blows beast's head and back until it release all companion and sprang upon him. The driver of a wood wagon coming up the gulch heard the shrieks of the wood choppers and took a desperate chance to succor them. He had a rifle on the waggon and he fired a shot at the lion, wound on him slightly. He fired again, and a second report the beast abandoned his prey and slunk back into the bushes. The wood hawk took the wounded man on his wagon and carried them to Bastin. When the story was told there a party came and everyone in the place kept a hound and seven of the best fighters among them were selected to accompany the lion. They took up the scene of the encounter and followed it for half a day before they got sight of the lion. They fought him for hair and scared the beast up and dispatched the beast with a few their guns. In that time the lion had lipped open three of the hounds and seriously wounded another. In Out Basin the naturalist's theory that a mountain lion won't attack a man. Another case of record out there is that of Sam McDonald's encounter with a lion that was cleaning up "cleaning up" at Henry Winters' place camp, near the Porphyri dike, at the head of Basin Creek, when work shuts down. Along before Sam could move his family down into the town of Basin, and it made the mountain trail impossible for Sam, as no horse could walk through it. Provisions were scarce in the camp and there was a chance that all hands would starve to death should there be another heavy fall of snow. Sam didn't propose to see his wife and little ones suffer if he could help it, so he volunteered to "shoot" it down the mountains to town. Most of the miners out there use skis, or Norwegian snowshoes, for winter trips in the hills. Sam got them out, and a good stout staff as well, and with a gunny sack over his shoulder, started for the town, twenty miles away. He had just made the turn by Winter's dam, three miles below the camp, when he heard a great "whoof!" behind him. It was like the sound an exhausted man makes when he frees his lungs of the air pent up in them. Sam's first impression was that some one had followed him from camp with a message. He turned to greet the newcomer and saw an immense mountain lion crouched in the snow not ten feet from him. The lion had jumped from the side hill, and when his trucks were measured later it was found that the beast had covered eighteen feet in that leap. Sam allied a blow at the beast with his staff, the only weapon he had. He said later that the lion looked to him to be as big as a beef aేer. He missed it, and the lion crouched as if to spring. Then Sam turned tall and fled. A man can travel like gressed lighting on skis and a downgrade. That's the way Sam McDonald traveled—and so did Sam. Sam says it only hit the high places in the trail, and that it was following him by leaps and bounds, letting out a "whoof" every time it landed. In the snow at the heels of the skis, Five miles the beast followed him in that way, and then Sam McDonald began to forget his fear in his annoyance. He brought up all standing with the aid of his staff, and then he made another vicious swing at the lion as it landed beside him. Again the beast drew back as if to spring and again Sam turned tail. In the twelve miles that followed the scene was repeated four times, the last time on the very edge of town. Justice of the Peace Jerry Griffiths lived in a cabin just there, and he happened to be abiding his gun at the moment. He saw Sam and he saw the lion. He dropped his all rag, pumped a cartridge into his gun and fired just as Sam swung for the lion's head with his staff. The bullet got there first. Sam hadn't heard the shot, and so when he saw the gun, walking towards him, gun in hand he called out: "Don't need your durned old gun now, Jerry.

There might not have been any possibility of harm coming out of the Afro-American pupils in the Farron school, Chicago, joining in singing "Dixie" at the Memorial Day exercises, but as evidence that the rising generation is rising in sentiment by their refusal to do so, every one must admit. At the very time that these youngsters refused to sing a song the sentiment of which they feel is an insult to them the Confederate veterans in Memphis 5,000 strong were closing their annual reunion with a grand parade, marching to the—to them—inspiring strains of "Dixie." Very naturally anything that would have an inspiring influence upon a lot of old rebels would have a depressing effect upon young Afro-Americans. So, with everything, all over this country, moving to the contrary, it is not surprising that the short lectures of the teachers, which were interjected into the proceedings on account of their refusal to sing, to the effect that "the war is over" that this is "a united country" that "there is no North, no South" and "all are Americans" (all spectacular, grand stand lies, so far as THE CALIFORNIA SEA. THE VERY LAST OF THE BALEARICS HIS SECRET. Afro-Americans are concerned) proved of no avail. Just here, we would like to call the attention of Major Peter J. Otey, member of Congress from Lynchburg, Va., who says there are three solutions to the "Negro problem," viz.: "Segregation, subordination or extermination," and ask if either of his solutions will work with a population of 10,000,000 out of 70,000,000 who hold sentiments such as these youngsters expressed? It seems that it, sometimes, is pretty hard for one to practice what he preaches. The latest and most striking example of this fact occurred recently in the household of Rev. C. M. Sheldon, author of the story, "Born to Serve," in which the writer declares that the servant girl should have equal privileges with the members of the family. Recently Mrs. Sheldon employed a servant, and when the first meal under the new servant's supervision was ready an extra plate was laid for her. Mrs. Sheldon objected and the young woman called her attention to her husband's story. "I can't help that," said Mrs. Sheldon. "I did not write that book, and besides, the meal hour is our only time for private conversation." The servant left the Sheldon home in disgust. She could not understand how a preacher could preach one thing and practice another. The Washington Post is seldom, if ever, fair where Afro-Americans are concerned, but we cannot but agree with it in its sentiments in regard to the action of the A. M. E. conference at Philadelphia toward Prof. Booker T. Washington. Mr. Washington can come no near pleasing everybody than Jesus Christ did; and, as the Divine Savior said, "None are perfect, no; not one," neither is Mr. Washington, nor the 101 out of 108 members of that conference who voted that Mr. Washington is not "one of the greatest Negroes in the world." Well, if Mr. Washington is not, who is? For a long time we have been laboring under the impression that the army of old slaves who lived on George Washington's plantation had passed into the beyond, but it seems we were mistaken as according to reports "Aunt" Bonnie Thornton, who claims she was born in Washington's time on his Virginia plantation, died last Saturday at Hogansville, Ga., aged 137 years. Next! It now seems that the famed "Mother Shipton" was a myth. The prophecies she was said to have made THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER were many of them fulfilled, but the world did not come to an end as predicted, but is still jogging along in the same old orbit. Thomas E. Postles was last Saturday elected a member of the Wilmington, Del. common council. He is the first Afro-American ever elected to an office in the state.

A Woman's Life Work.—This is story of a wonderful life. The author was active Anti-Slavery legislator and through her underground railroad work assisted him to develop a paper on mondage. During the war she spent about two weeks taking care of the sick and wounded. Through her efforts more than 3,000 Union workers and the other people who were led to a great work in providing for the Freed men of Kansas after the close of the war. She was under the name of the state public school at Coldwater Mich., at the public school, which was the first of its kind in the world. The Prince of Wales having heard the story of the postage and a woman's plan and work, wrote to this country to find out if such were really the fact. "A friend's contribution to the world is to have a lot of life," Mr. Michael, almost utterly or lows its first name, and especially its name, to the effort of Kevans-Havildan Academy, at Haviland, North Carolina, and in honor of the town in which it is located. Her whole life has been one of cheerful self-denial for good and other people. The World's Fair was introduced by Frederick Palmer as "The Mother of Philanthropy," and well she deserves the title. Her experience as a living man, but by being born in the world, is the only living interest of her very busy, useful life, but of a more than one year and a year. Many have pronounced it equal to "Union," and "Cabin." Ant-Laura is now in her nine-year life, and she still actively engaged in the year and a year. Wes. Lake street. Chicago. Publisher.

And he doesn't travel the mountain trails in winter now without a gun. He out in the Roebles in winter time are often hard up for amusement and excitement. On such occasions they sometimes organize lion hunts, and if their hounds happen to be good hunters they can be trained to be imaginable. There is always sure to be a lion somewhere in the neighborhood, and he is certain to light to a finish. There are no set rules for lion hunting. The dogs can be trained to then drive him into the open, where the dogs can get at him from all sides, but it is often hard work to get the dogs to come to the door, sometimes he will take to a tree like a coon. Then he either is killed off 'the roost' or else springs down when the two-legged Dose mix it up with his two-legged Dose. Those who have hunted him may say that the American lion is as contrary as a a tree he will take to the opposing him up on the top of a high hill, and if you count on getting him into the open he will find in some thick bunch of pine and fir trees the scent by leaping from tree to tree over their heads. He may weigh anywhere from 150 to 200 pounds and his weight is so clumsy that he is so clumsy and awkward as hardly to be able to get out of his own way, but when he begins to fight or to run, he will find the lion and to find that a buzzard isn't a circumstance to him in ripping things, and that for graceful leaps that cover a distance to him the carcass can't hold a candle to a mountain lion.

Dr. Hubbard, president of Mehary Medical College, of Nashville, Tenn., as guest of honor, and Drs. Gravelie and Francis, of St. Paul. Dr. Hubbard is attending the convention of American Medical. Colleges, held here this week, and has devoted forty years of his life to teaching Afro-Americans in the South. He started the first school for Afro-Americans in Nashville, before the close of the war and has remained there ever since. Dr. Hubbard is hopeful to the future of our race, but admits that the conditions of prejudice now existing in the South indicate the lapse of a great length of time before a favorable and proper solution of the race problem is consummated. The doctor has an excellent memory and keeps in touch with all the graduates from his college, and it can be readily seen that this is no small matter when we know that Meharry is the largest and best medical college for Afro-Americans in the South, and that its graduates are scarcely the country and among the isles of the sea. The Hubbard is a very interesting gentleman and one who has the welfare of the people of our race at heart as is demonstrated by his life's work. Dr. Turner is a graduate of Mehary.

The World-Remonied Evangelist Seriously Injured. As a result of being thrown from her carriage Tuesday, Amanda Smith, founder of the orphan asylum bearing seventh and Despainnes streets, Harvey, and one of the most widely known Afro-American women in the world, is in a critical condition. On account of her recovery is expressed by Dr. Crettehner, who is attending her at the orphanage, of which she has been actively in charge since it was built under her direction nearly three years ago. She is now a broken cellar blower, bruised right side and a deep gash in the left side of her head. Besides these internal injuries are feared. She is known as an evangelist, philanthropist, editor and writer. In slavery, with but three months in school, she is one of the most learned of Afro-American women. Her travels have taken her through the part of Asia, Africa and Europe. She counted Frances. E. Willard, Lady Henry Somerset and Bishop William Taylor of Africa as her personal friends. Before the late Queen Victoria and offer rulers in Europe she within the last six months she tured in Dakota, Washington Missouri, New York, Massachusetts and other states. Her mesmeric qualities are pronounced remarkable. She has been the center of attraction at camp meetings held all over the United States. She occupied the rostrum during the conference, which was held at the Auditorium in May. She has recently received a call to tour England. Mrs. Mamie A. Cowan, Mrs. Edith B. Miller, and Mrs. Virginia A. Jackson have been awarded damages of $25 each against John A. Hamm, proprietor of the Grand Opera House. On August 18, 1999, they bought tickets for "Arizona" in a 1999 tour of the seats in the eighth row from the stage. They testified that they were not permitted to occupy the seats because of their color. Hamlin declared, through the Opera House employees, that they were the owner of the auditorium because of the house prohibiting the seating of patrons while the play is in progress. Hamlin probably will appeal. RESCUED FROM SHAME.

A "hush came over the court for a moment and nothing was heard except the sobs of the heart-broken man and his wife.

Jewa Seek Protection A desire to bring to an end assaults and petty amourages to which Jewish peddlers and others of the race are said to be subjected by hoodlums and schoolboys was the cause for a mass meeting of Hebrews held in a synagogue on Monday evening. Criticism was directed toward the police for failure to afford adequate protection and steps were taken to induce the board of education and school teachers to aid in education and to turbulent spirits of school boys who turbulent pleasure in stoning Jewish peddlers.

The speakers included Hyman Goldberg the Rev. A. R. Deinlar, Jacob Gartenkönig, Jacob W. Jacob E. Michaelson, Rabbi Husman and Miss Jill Adams.

SEVENTY-FOUR MILES AN HOUR Coffee cups Which Failed to Record the Speed of the Train. To a Washington group Col. Wells H. Bldgott of St. Louis told a story of railroad travel which caused his numbers to marvel. His theme was the imminent transportation facilities in the United States that these advantages are coming so rapidly and with so little mention that most people do not appreciate them. In the touch of the Wabash recently," Col. Bldgott said, "several of us were at breakfast. The coffee cups stood so evenly that, although they were full, not a drop splashed over the sides. Conversation turned upon speed, and one who was at the table remarked that the train was going sixty miles an hour and his doubt about it, because the jar did not indicate anything unusual. "At the time of this conversation the car upon which we were taking a meal did not seem to be making any unusual time. We discussed the sense of speed as it would be experienced by the traveler. As a matter of curiosity, the driver decided to leave the registering apparatus and end of the car. He came back and reported the train was going seventy-four miles an hour."—Chicago Daily News.

READING NOVELS AS WORK. Five hundred novels a year is a record for one man's reading, but that is about the number that one of the regular readers of a large publishing house in this city manages to examine annually, says the New York Post. This examination is no superficial review, either, but one that gives a thorough knowledge of the plot, style, and general characteristics of the MS, for opinion of each MS. is written out and a book is published. One of the older firms has nearly ninety bound volumes of reader's opinions, with about four hundred opinions in each volume. Perhaps forty out of the four hundred are about books which have been published. Of the other three hundred and some few may have been brought out by other publishing houses, but most of them were returned to their authors, to appear again. A good reader will look out for four MS in a day that begins at 9:30 in the clock, and sometimes in a rush of work, will get through twice that number. "This looks over," of course, is not the careful reviewing referred to above. Many manuscripts never get beyond the "looking-over" stage. Most of the publishing houses do not keep MS, more than two weeks before giving a decision on them, and bringing them, if possible. The MSs form a large, charge, and have to be looked out for for the sake of loss the publisher is sometimes liable, particularly if the receipt of the MS has been acknowledged. At least four or five out of every hundred MS which are declared by a publishing house are left in the hands of the publisher by the author. They are carefully put away, and after a certain number of years, if no one calls them, are destroyed. Once in a while an author writes a bill with the object of propitiating the publisher, we seem to be a widespread suppository of a certain class of authors that the readers are all broken down and unsuccessful literary men who dislike to see and one succeed when they have failed.
