The Appeal

A UNIQUE BIBLE MUSEUM VOL. 17. NO. 31. AMBRIDGE, Mass. 7. 6. The new building which is in process of erection for Harvard's Semitic museum through the generosity of Mr. Paul Mullis, with calls attention to one of the most interesting special collections in the country—a museum illustrating the life and thought of the Semitic peoples, ancient and modern, including the Babylonian-Aryanian, the Arabian, the Phoenician, the Ethiopian, the Syrian, and other biblical peoples of Palestine, so called, as the nucleus and central feature of the whole. It is, in fact, in the broad and scientific sense, a Bible museum; intended not only to illustrate the instruction given in the Semitic department at Harvard, but to be a working aid to serious Bible students everywhere, both in the university and out of There are Oriental museums in which Semitic collections form an important part, and there are strictly Biblical museum collections, and one other Semitic museum, at once encompassing a diverse, in the world. It was founded in 1889 by a gift of $10,000 from Mr. Schiff, who had recently been appointed one of a new committees to report to the Overseas Commission, and as new under the charge of *Prof. Toy* and *Prof. Lyon*. Other gifts, mainly from the same benefactor, have brought the amount which the university has given to the museum up to nearly $20,000, and for some years past, the collection has quite outgrown its narrow quarters assigned to it in one of the galleries of the museum. Accordingly in 1890, Mr. Schiff offered for a building provided as much more were reeled from other sources. When nearly $20,000 had been raised in accordance with these terms, Mr. Schiff announced that he would give $50,000 for the new building if the other donors were willing, as it proved they were, that their subscriptions should go to the increase of the collection. Later, in 1900, Mr. Schiff submitted by the architect, Mr. A. W. Longfellow of Boston, Mr. Schiff further increased his gift to $10,000, to cover the estimate of the contractors. It is hoped that many time this year, it will be three stories in height, with commodo lecture rooms and a library for the Semitic department on the ground floor, with exhibition halls on the second and third. The $20,000 available for the purchase of further material should make the Semitic museum the most important Biblical collection—for so in the main one that is the most interesting and instructive in the world. As has been said, the aim is to make it of the widest usefulness to Biblical and Semitic students everywhere. The degree proper and in the graduate school, it is situated, it may be noted, in the immediate vicinity of the Harvard divinity school, and within a short distance of Cambridge; while in Boston and its suburbs are theological schools of the Methodist, Universist, Baptist and Catholic churches. Besides this availability for professional use, so to speak, it is also available in the public, especially teachers in Sunday schools and Bibble classes, courses of lectures of Biblical and Semitic subjects, to be directly illustrated by the collections of the museum, for example, a course was given by various specialists which treated, with this constant reference to objects in the museum, such subjects as the vegetation of Palestine, past and present; Biblical under the umbrella of the historical themes; the physical features of Palestine, the birds of Palestine, and life in Palestine at the present day. As has been well said, for the general student of the Bible, the museum provides the value that those in the old house State have for the students of American history. It illustrates the Biblical narrative and deepens the interest in the book by the record more real and intelligible." The most inspiring monuments in the museum are to be found of course in the Babylonian-Assyrian section. Here a great collection of casts is being gathered from scriptures in the museum and other important European museums. The collection of casts from the British museum is already remarkable, comprising as it does some 100 or more monuments of the great Assyrian rulers from the time of Assyrian numalp, 800 B.C. and 800 B.C. C. There is but little distinction, to be sure, in the faces of these monarchs, but there is much variety in the gradual changes of costume. The splendid Assyrian animal sculptures, particularly in the museum, are art reached its height, are well represented. All of the best of the British museum sculptures that have been moulded have been procured, and it is intended to secure the others so far as moulds can be made. Many were exposed to the flames in the burning of the palaces of the Assyrian kings, and as a result of the heat to which they were then subjected the alabaster of which they are made is too bitter to make moulds from without danger. The glass, glass, glass, photographs will be made. But collecting as it will casts and photographs from all the great museums abroad, the Harvard museum should in time possess the most representative collection of the Assyrian sculpture ever brought together. Other Babylonian-Assyrian material are casts of the most famous inscriptions, and many original clay books, about the Babylonian king Assyrian C., the time of Abraham, others to the time of Nebuchadnezzar, Cyrus, Darius, and their successors on the Persian throne, and revealing to modern scholars the history of the private and social life-law suits, down to the annuals of the kings themselves. The collection includes also a large number of seals, cylindrical or conical, with caryatid inscriptions. In the Hebrew-Palestinian department it is aimed to illustrate the flora and geology, the modern life and costume of the country, the Jewish religious ceramics, the art of the Babylonian and the history, by manuscripts, copies. haded.

The coins, of which there are about 700, struck in different parts of the Roman province, and giving the names of Roman officials, are the most important of the monuments that they throw on the history of the various cities and the records they gave of various rules. Most of the Palestinian collection, as at present constituted, is in the Museum of the Merghil, the United States consul Jerusalem. In the same general line are the objects exhibiting the customs of the modern Arabs, while a considerable collection of Arabic art and history, both in Arabia and in Northern Africa and in Spain, from which latter country it is hoped to secure a collection of casts of the finest architectural details, as shown in the monuments of the Moorish occupation. In the library a considerable number of manuscripts has already been accumulated, including Arabic copies of the Koran and treatises on theology, science, law and language; Syriic manuscripts from the eleventh century to the present day, chisly copies of the Scriptures, the Arabic manuscripts of Hebrew manuscripts of the Scriptures in roll form, and a few Ethiopic manuscripts. It is earnestly hoped that some day the Semitic department may be able to undertake certain evacuations in Palestine, where, curiously enough, but little systematic digging has ever been done. In this event the collection of the graves greatly enriched. Samaria would be a particularly promising site, where there would be an excellent chance of making discoveries of the highest importance. It is thought that the cost of such a piece of work would not be very great. In Jerusalem itself the digging would be more expensive on an extensive scale is more or less out of the question. Samaria, on the other hand, long an important Hebrew town, offers great present advantages over Jerusalem to the excavator, who might look forward, moreover, to finding there remains of Hebrew occupation in the city, or perhaps like Jerusalem, in the destruction of which, we are told, not one stone was left upon another.

OFFICE OF THE WEEKLY PIGCOLO JOB PRINTING REISE THE FARMER: SORRY, ED. I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY MY SUBSCRIPTION THIS YEAR IN VEGETABLES. YOULL HAVE TO TAKE CASH. GLIERS, Special Correspondence, and altogether a surprise learn that the Lower Town of this ancient city—that which was the capital of the empire. did creatures in robes and turbans, who look as if they had just stepped out of the Arabian Nights—now shorn of dignity, squat on their heels in doorways and ante-chambers, waiting to run errands for the conquerors of the antique and pictureque, it is disappointing, to say the least, to find here a town that is thoroughly European in character, with straight, regular streets lighted by gas, and lined with shops and buildings, are seen in New York, Paris and London—many expensive hotels equipped with "all modern improvements," (according to advertisements), and crowded with tourists from every corner of the globe, who counter with irreverent feet into mosques sacred to the worship of Allah and flip-criticise even the saints in their tombs. The French have thoroughly revolutionized the old African town, so that today it wears the aspect of ary, thriving European city. Its principal square, called the Palais des Dames, is large and handsome, planted on three double rows of plane trees; while on the other opposite the Hotel de la Regence (which is to Algiers what the Waldorf-Asylum is to Gotham) rises a remarkable group of buildings. The central fountain looks as if it had recently strayed over from the Champs-Élysées, except for the tall bamboos that surround it; and in one corner stands a bronze statue of the duke of Orleans, whom can taken at the conquest of Algeria. This is the fashionable promenade, where military bands play beside the fountain on pleasant evenings; and all day long it is thronged with longers of the bronze grade. Two of the finest streets of the city are the Rue Bab-Azoum and the Rue Bab-Ol-elou. Running parallel more than a mile, they are banked by colonades adorned with shops and ships that might grace the town. The traveller may purchase an enamel dish, an goods trade and trinkets—embroidered textile fabrics, curious fans, objects in coral, brass and silver, all in work in wood. mother-of-pearl and ivory, barbary manufactures in colored leather, jewels rudely set, photography of African scenery and native types-all at prices not exceeding $100. There are members the oriental habit of asking a sky-high figure not expected, with a view to the inevitable beating down. Even more animated, if possible, is the Place Royale—a large, oblong space, plastered with white marble, rounded by houses in the European style, three or four stories in height, too high for safety in a place so subject to earthquake. Never was a town so rough as Place Royale, but it was D. There is also the Place Bressen, with a pleasant garden in the middle, opening upon the aristocratic Boulevard de la Republique; the Place Mahon; Place de la Rue de la Rue; Place de la Lyre, in which is a covered market; Place d'Armes, a triangular park adjoining the arsenal; Place d'Islay, in the center of which stands a bronze statue of Marshal Buceau; Place Malakar; Place de la Rue de la Rue; them should be visited and its traditions learned. The Place d'Armes, for example, is the site of the ancient Moorish cemetery. The north side was reserved for the interment of the ancient Moorish ancestors. The client fort now known as 'de ving OB INTING CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY MY S ABLES. YOU'LL HAVE TO TAKE quatre heures," made famous by Geronimo's martyrdom. Do you remember the story? During an expedition made by the Spanish garrison of Oran in 1840 a young Arab boy was taken prisoner and Geronimo was taken hostage. When about eight years old he was recaptured by his relatives, with whom he lived as a Mohammedan. But the machinations of the foreigner in his infancy inflicted a severe injury and at the age of twenty-five he voluntarily returned to Oran, with the intention of living thenceforth in the religion of Christ-Islam which knows no mercy toward apostates. It happened that Geronimo was taken prisoner in a small boat to make a mass on some thieving Arabs. The expedition was chased by a Moorish corail and all the members taken prisoners and carried to Algiers. The Spaniards were sold into slavery and the death. Every effort was made to induce Geronimo to renounce Christianity, but he remained steadfast in the faith and was therefore sentenced to be thrown alive into a mould in which a block of wood was placed. His feet and hands were tied with cords, the cruel sentence carried out, and afterward the square of concrete, with his body inside of it, was built into an angle of the fort, "des vingt quatre heures" of the construction. This was in the year 1850. Spanish in Algiers, carefully recorded the exact spot and added, "we hope that God's grace may one day extricate Geronimo from the place and restrain his body of the other holy martyrs of Christ whose death he has conserved this country." To the unregenerate mind it seems as if it would have been much more to the purpose, so far as Geronimo was concerned, had God's grace been invoked to save him from the massacre. However, less than fifty years ago Hesado's plausible prayers were answered. I was found necessary to destroy this fort (in 1833) and in the very spot specified in the three-century-old record was found the young Arab's skeleton incised in a block of beton, as sometimes finds a petrified leaf or lizard inside of a stone. The bones were carefully removed and the bones of the Roman Catholic cathedral, St. Phillippe, which occupies the site of the ancient Mosque of Hassen in Aligiers. Liquid plaster of Paris was run into the mold left by his petrified model of it obtained, showing not only the shape of cords which bound him, and even the texture of his clothing. This is true, and the interesting cast of the martyr, made exactly 242 years after his death, is now housed in the government library and museum in the Rue de l'Etat-Major of Aligiers. The boulevard de la Republica is built on a series of arches at the head of the town about two miles from the town about two miles. It is bordered on one side by handsome buildings and on the other runs a wide promenade, overlaing the bay, harbor and shipping. The quay and railway station arry forty running from the town by two included roads is the property of an English company and cost some $15,000,000. It was constructed by Sir Morton Peto, to whom the town transferred the concession for nine years, and he had been granted to it by the imperial consent.

It consists of two tiers of vaults, forming 830 spacious ware-rooms, with whole occupying an area of eleven acres, with a frontage of 3,700 feet. Among the show places of Algiers are the governor's winter palace—once the gorgeous palace of the Days, but well nigh spotted by alleged improvements—and the archbishop's palace, an ancient Moorish edifice well worth a visit. The library and museum are housed in the former spacious palace of Mustapha Pasha and contains a wonderful collec- (Continued in 7th Column.) JUST ANCESTRAL SHAMS "They didn't sell such shams when she was a little girl," observed St. Paul grandma the other day, as she refused to admire a "gold-filled" waten that her schoolboy grandson had purchased for $9. "Well, it really must have been a comfort, mother," commented the old lady's daughter, to know what you were buying. Nowadays we only think we know. Both women had long entertained that havy confidence in the integrity of the good-looking father of the watch-buying child agreed, of his husband should, with his wife and her mother. That is, he agreed until last Saturday. He was going to take a rig that day to be adjusted by a manufacturer. "And while you're there," suggested his wife, "you might as well lift these two gold buttons. They're mammas.' She got them when she was very little, years and years ago, I suppose about 1440. One's lost and the sot's spelled, because he was real, because our jeweller said so yesterday, only he doesn't buy old jewelry." Ignatius therefore—he wasn't Ignatius, but "What imports?" as they say at boarding school—took the old buttons. They exhibited a rich, genuine luster, a beautiful design in delicate basket work. "Yes, this is gold," said the manufacturer, with a violence that set their dainty wings into a frightened nutter. "This is gold," tapping the surface of one old button, "but you won't mind if I open her up!" The request hinted so strongly of corkscrew and foam that Ignatius replied in response. At once went the button into a vice and a chisel-y tool into the button. "But this," continued the jeweler, twisting his head on one side and peering with one eye, like a hen, into the button as "she" was "opened up," "This isn't金刚." Ignatius padded also. The button was filled solidly with gray, lack-luster head. "Well, I'm sure they were bought for gold," he insisted, beginning to lose faith in the early days of the republic. "Of course they were," returned the opening of metallurgical oysters. "Of course they were. That's the difference between us and our ancestors. We buy titanium jewelry now, and we know it. We buy titanium jewelry now, and we know it. We know it. We go to Goal! We know it. We go to Goal! We are all men." They paid gold prices 'or brass and recited proxies speeches about the 'honest artisan.' But when it comes to palming off 'offy' jewelry upon the innocent I'll bet an antagonist against any old man would do the same. "Sixty years ago, when these buttons were bought, 100, or maybe 200 years ago, goldsmiths could make plated silver and plated gold even more deceptive than we can at present. The method was different. They knew nothing of electro-plating, but they knew nothing of plating in a chemical bath, so that particles of dissolved gold or silver would gradually collect upon the surface of the inferior metal. That's the up-to-date way and the cheaper, quicker way. But it isn't the most convincing way; it isn't that of those honest old frauds, our forebears. Making a Button. "When they wanted to make a button like this, a gold button, they repeated an elfifying little saw from Poor Richard's alimac and made a gold button, but it was only gold leaf, hardly elkled. The sign painter uses for gilding. The button was made in halves. Each half was molded in a die. Diemaking isn't a modern scheme, as some think. Those old designs are perfectly, than we do, and originated the designs as well. Our best dies, as a general thing, merely repeat the old designs. The halves of the button, when shaped, are not perfectly, and then soldered together so neatly that see, there's not a sign of juncture. That made a gold button with a perfectly natural color, unlike our plated gold. It was a button that could be tested with and still prove gold, and so, as you have said. It was probably bought for gold. "Another old system of plating was to use brass and solder with a thin sheet of gold or silver. Now, look at this candlestick." . Ancestral Candlestick It was a noble, ancestral candlelight, a candlestick to draw resolutions from any Revolutionary son or verses from any Daughter. It still shone with honest Co. love, save and except in certain blurred spots, in certain blurred dirt. It was a ponderous candlelight, a foot in height. Near its base was the inscription "Shamrock Lodge, A. D. 1253," and higher up was cut the myriad scars of war and sorry. The venerable utensil had glistened for years upon the altar of a lodge in Ireland. Then the candlestick passed into the hands of a lodge officer, who carried it to America and used it here before the Revolutionary war. Henry told me," continued the amy council, "I saw the candle was lighted and put in a window in Philadelphia to celebrate the victory at Yorktown. Well, mebbe, mebbe—anyhow, dye that spot." jubbed a little industrial dagger into one of the hallowed blremishes. He twisted the dagger and scraped away a bit of soft and shineless blade. "Solder you, see, pure solder. The silver is this white shiny leaf alongside." The scrape and the "shinny" leaf broke loose. "Now, Ill dig deeper." He dug. "There! That's brass!" as the bottom of the digging grew bright and yellow. "Anybody can tell brass-Oh, yes, anybody-!" Covered With Silver. "That's the Whole trick. the candle-stick was made neatly of brass, yes, neatly and artistically, too, better than we would probably make it now, even of pure silver. Then the stick was plunged into the mold, then the silver that had been hammered out into thin, very thin, sheets was carefully stuck on after the solder-covered stock had been slightly heated. The work was accurately done, and when the whole thing was done, the candle-stick was carefully sine silver candle-stick, an ancectal candle-stick, like many another that is lagged about and put into $2.40 PER YEAR salty deposit vaults, and exhibited at art loan loans, and lied over by devoted, deceived descendants.

Four acquainteds supply both the upper and lower town with an abundance of pure water. There is a military and a civil hospital—both the very best of their kind. The town is known as Hospital du Dey, stands near the walls in the beautiful gardens that surround the country place of the last day, hence its name. It is truly a magnificent establishment, fitted with every requisite that twentieth century architecture, with baths of every description, covered promenades fitted up as smoking galleries for convalescents, with comfortable seats and decorated with tropical plants; laboratories, a chapel, separate lodgings for the sick, with beds and more on emergency; in short, many a robust soldier of Uncle Samuel fighting in the Philippines and elsewhere might well pray for a convenient illness which would consign him for a time to the hospital.

THE APPEAL wants good reliable agents to canvass for subscribers at points not already covered. Write for extraordinary inducements. Address: SATURDAY, AUG. 3, 1901. A few days since one of our white contemporaries published the following: "AN EXAMPLE FOR NGROES." Rufus Herron, an Alabama Negro who was born a slave and who can neither read nor write, recently contributed $10 toward the support of a newly-established school for white students in his state, and a few days later contributed a like amount toward the support of Tuskegee institute for colored students. This man owns several hundred acres of land, and good livestock, all acquired by his own industry and that of his wife." Now, it strikes us that this example is a good one for anybody to follow no matter what his nationality or color. And, there is another thing about Herron's actions that might be noticed; he makes no odious distinctions but treats all alike; this is certainly an example very many whites would do well to follow—and blacks too, for that matter. The ministers who oppose dancing have been furnished with another horrible example in the death of Mrs. ALGERIAN JEWS. Anna Brudowicz, a bride of twenty four hours, in the Polish settlement of McKeesport, Pa. Polish wedding celebrations last several days, and it is customary at this celebration for every male guest to dance with the bride. Mrs. Brudowicz had finished the ninety-fourth round of the room with as many different guests, when she complained of feeling sick, and almost immediately dropped over in a faint and died. Physicians stated that death was due to heart prostration due to over exertion. It seems that the old adage, "It's an ill wind that blows nobody good," is to have a pleasing verification to the farmers in the West, whose corn crop has been so badly damaged by the dreadful drouth, in view of the fact that what was so bad for the corn has been so good for the wheat that an unprecedented yield is expected. Indications are that the winter wheat crop will amount to 425,000,000 bushels, and spring wheat 300,000,000 bushels, a total exceeding any previous year by 50,000,000. We can all eat white bread now, and "corn pone" and "Johny cake" will be luxuries only the rich may enjoy.

He has had to pay a fine of $300 that was assessed against him by the chairman of the N. C. A., and on Tuesday he was indefinitely suspended at Albany, N. Y., for refusing to compete in the second heat of the one-mile professional handicap bicycle race at the Coliseum track, Lagoon island. He was suspended by Dick Robe, referee of the races. The statement is going the rounds of the press that a son of Hon. T. McCants Stewart who has recently graduated from the law department of the University of Minnesota, is the first Afro-American to graduate from that institution. This is not true. Andrew F. Hilyer graduated from the college department in the class of 1882 with the degree of A. B. and was accorded the distingished honors of delivering the class salutatory in Latin, generally considered the second honor, in a class of 32 persons. According to reports in circulation: Bath, Me., when Miss Ruth Hanna, daughter of Senator Hanna, christens the new cruiser Cleveland at the Bath iron works in September, water will be used, and not champagne. And we think the idea a good one as the champagne usually used may then be put to better use or at least where it will do the most good. AFRO-AMERICAN COUNCIL Call for Annual Meeting at Philadelphia — Louisiana Test Case. The fourth annual session of the National Afro-American Council will be held at Philadelphia, Pa., (probably in the City Council Chamber), Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, August 7, 2014. We hope that every church, college, benevolent organization, other race organizations, and editors of race newspapers, will be represented. It is the purpose of the officers to make this meeting the largest and most potent for good of any which the national conference has in recent years Philadelphia has been a matter of several important national gatherings for the discussion of the race question, and the outcome has not always been the most favorable for the Negro. We now have an opportunity to present statements which have been more favorable change the unfavorable sentiment which has been created by some of Not Rich, But He Objects to the Income Tacks. MAP OF THE CLEAN C. David the enemies of the race who have selected the "Quaker City" as the forum from which to hurl their philippine accusations to a loyal and inoffensive people who are accustomed to court and previous condition of servitude. Again; it is our earnest desire to collect sufficient funds at this meeting to pay the remaining expenses of our work. We have delivered notice from our chief counsel, Lawyer A. A. Birnley of Washington, D. C., informing us that the case is progressing satisfactorily. (A full report of the proceedings of the Philadelphia meeting). We have already paid $1,000 for counsel fees, and $500 are now due. One thousand dollars more will be needed when the final judgment is accompanied by the Supreme Court of the United States. If there ever was a time when every Negro church, college, benevolent society, and other race organizations should be compelled to the annual tax of five percent of the great national gatherings, now is that time. The meeting should be so great in numbers and influence as to forever rest the oft-repeated statement that the Negro people are arrested in his civil and political rights. The basis of membership, as provided for by the constitution, is: "The Afro-American Council shall be composed of members as follows: (1) All members who are members of the Council delegates, representing duly accredited Local Councils. (3) Affiliated delegates, representing organizations of similar plans and purposes, of the Afro-American Council. Every local Afro-American Council shall be entitled to representation in the National Council by delegates elected on a basis of one delegate to every fifty members, said delegates representing the organization of credentials and payment of the tax of five dollars. Religious and secular organizations which have for their aim and work the mental and moral resources of the community which desire to co-operate with the Council, may be represented by affiliated delegates, not more than two delegates to each organization. Said delegates shall have the right to vote upon each delegate. Editors of Afro-American papers and principals of academic schools and colleges may be admitted to membership in the National Council upon presentation of credentials and payment of the annual tax of five dollars." The citizens of Philadelphia are preparing to entertain the Council on a magnificent scale. A special rate of money and a third on the certificate plan has been issued for delegates. Those who intend visiting the Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo on their way to or from the Council meeting, will be allowed a "stop over" at Philadelphia, thus getting the advantage of free travel. ALEXANDR DWERLWERS, President National Afo-American Council. T. THOMAS FORTUNE, Chairman Executive Committee. CYRUS FIELD ADAMS, Secretary. P.

Walters, 228 Duncan avenue, Jersey City or Cyrus Field Adams, General Secretary, "943 S." St. N. W., Washington, D.C. Charleston, S. C., July 27—An orange, for which he paid his last nickel, and which was being carried to Irondale, where he was ill, saved the life of Andrew Dilim, a small boy, who lives in Maryville, near Charleston. On his way home the boy was attacked by a vicious bull dog, which was lured at the mouth and showing other symptoms of being mad. When the animal came rushing at the boy looked for a stick, but there was no weapon of defense within reach. The dog made a sudden jump, and then made the orange in his right hand and bound of being springing with his jaws open, and the aim of the boy proved true. The orange went in the animal's mouth and the dog made his escape. The boy made his dog was dead on the ground with the orange still fastened in its throat. When once the soul, by contemplation, is raised to any right appreciation of the divine perfections, and the forestates of celestial bliss, the glitter of the orange will more dazzle his eyes than the faint light it now becomes will trouble the eagle after it has been beholding the sun—Senegal. To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant—A. Bronson Alcott. There is nothing to small, but that we may honor God by asking Him to kill us until he by taking it into our own hands.

The following directions are submitted for approval. 1. Tickets at full fare for the going journey may be secured within three days (exclusive of Sunday) prior to and during the first two days of the meeting. The advertised date of the meeting are from August 7 to 10, consequently you can obtain your ticket not earlier than August 7, nor later than August 7.

PEARLINE's way is best, easiest, quickest, most economical—no soap, no washboard, no rubbing, little work—best results. 635 Pearline is right purchasing your going ticket, you request a certificate. Do not make the mistake of asking for a receipt. 2. Present yourself at the railroad station. Obtain a certificate at least 30 minutes before departure of train. 3. Certificates are not kept at all stations. If you inquire at your station you may be asked to obtain a certificate and through tickets can be obtained place of meeting. If not, agent will inform you at what station they can be obtained. You can purchase a local ticket thence, and there take up a certificate. On your arrival at the meeting, present your certificate to Cyrus Field Adams, Secretary National Afro-American Council. You can arrange that the special agent of the Trunk Line Association will be in attendance to validate certificates on August 8th. You are advised of this, because if you arrive at the meeting and leave for home you will be in attendance. You cannot have the benefit of the reduction on the home journey. Similarly, if you arrive at the meeting later than August 8th, after the special agent has left you cannot have the reduction returning. 6. So as to prevent disappointment, it must be understood that the reduction on return journey is not guaranteed, but is contingent on an attendance certificate obtained from ticket agents at starting points, showing payment of full first-class fare of not less than 75 cents on going journey; prosecution of the certificate presented fall short of the required minimum and it shall appear that round-trip tickets are held in lieu of certificates they shall be reckoned in arriving at the minimum. The minimum is in attendance, and your certificate is validly validated, you will be entitled, up to August 14th, to a continuous passage ticket to your destination by the route of your journey, at one-third the limited fare.

Now, sulphur, when united to hydrogen, forms sulphuretted hy- drogen, and then becomes a foul-smell- ing compound. The onton, being s0 Juley, has a very large percentage ot water in iis tissues, and this, combin- ing with the sulphur, forms the strong- ly scented and offensive substance called sulphuret of allyle, This sulphur- ¢t of allsle mingles more espectally with the volatile or aromatic oil of the onion; it is identical with the malo- dorant principle found in asatetida, which is almost the symbol of all smells that are nasty, The horse radish and the ordinary mustard of Our tables both owe thelr strongly stimulative properties to this same sulphuret of allyle, which gives them heat and acridity, but not an offensive smell, owing to the different arrange- men of the atoms in thelr volatile oils, This brings us to a most curl ous fact fn nature, that most strange- ly, yet most certainly constructs. all Yegetable volatile oils in exactly the same way—composes them all, wheth- er they are the aromatle essences of cloves, oranges, lemons, cinnamon, thyme, rose, verbena, turpentine oF onion, of exactly the same proportion, which are 81% of carbon to 11% of hydrogen, “and obtains all the vast seeming diversities that our nostrils detect in their scent simply by a dit- ferent arrangement of the atoms in each vegetable ofl—Chambers’ Jour- nal, DEPEW’S BAD FRENCH. on Win’ Trouble Which Reqults tn is Having found a purse on. the floor of a hotel near an armchair, where he fhad seen a pretty girl seated a short time before, Senator Depew deposited the purse with the hotel clerk In a leading hostlery in Paris.

Finally the foolish maiden ran to's policeman who had appeared on the ‘seene and appealed tor protection, Tt was only after a long ‘wrangle. that the stupid offcer of the law, zealous to appear in the light of the rescuer of a woman in distress, would admit the possible truth of Senator Depew’s laborious explanations. ‘The hotel be ing near, the policeman finally’ con- sented to accompany Mr. Depew and the Indy there, sticking close to the lady all the way.
