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. The Great Turquoise. VOL. 17. NO. 32. N Spanish, no less than in English, we have an old proverb, saying: "No hay mal quo por blen no hay mal quo por blen no not come for good." And white poor Wikt-kit, that most bewildering handsome and statusque of Pueblo maidens, might have wondered where the man was, or where to hideous old Kopeli, and, last but not least, the customary burial to the neck which all properly trained Pueblo maidens must undergo on the night preceding the day, when the good was there, as you will see later. To begin with, Wiki-tiki was more or less to blame in the matter, being a very fastidious person, and hard to please in the matter of suitors. She had plenty of friends, and she had been good Diego, porter to the Padre Estaban at the mission where Wiki-tiki had been taught her "Padre Nuestro" to kill the suitors. She had plenty of Intawa, the uncle of Wiki-tiki, had groaned, no muchacha could have wanted a better man than Diego. But the unregenerate girl had said Pro" as emphatic exit Diego. Next, there appeared Rafael, the sheep herder, sighing like a furnace, and intimating that he was at any hour ready for the "hair-combings" (the hair combs) lesion; also, that he had a good little adobe house, three burrows, two good pinto ponies and four hundred sheep. Now, again, was an opportunity that any Indian girl and Arizona would have given her head for. Wiki-tiki merely tossed hers scornfully, and said that Rafael could go back and graze with his sheep; she didn't want to do that. She preferred her prey to pull it! So Rafael departed. Even Padre Esteban was angry with Wiki-tiki, and told the latter's uncle that he himself washed his hands of the girl; he would no longer serve in controlling her, and perhaps it would be well to treat her with a little Indian—hem-chastisement. And then the father departed on his six-weeks' rounds, and Intiwa, with whom he had been assembled, dealing with her case. For a moment or two the old war captain and his shamans smoked away in stern Indian silence, their grave faces turned away from the refractory malden. Then a man came to the house, to Wiki-tiki's wrath, horror and anguish, his speech set forth an old, old Pueblo Indian law, dating far back to the time before the fratries and the words "I am a man of honor," she was no less disturbed to hear that she was the first malden, within the memory of those present (all of whom were aged seventy and over), to be so corrected." And what a correction it First, for her disobedience* in going against the wishes of her uncle, she would be well chastised with a carpio cane. Next, she would espouse the very next Indian who made an offer for her to her uncle. To exorcise the spirit of objection, she would possess her, to possess her, she would, on the two sights preceding her marriage to whatover suitor might present himself, undergo the burial over night in sand which was prescribed by Pueblo laws, and which, as old Hano significantly grunted, was not prescribed by Pueblo recognizing her to the ways of the Indians which she, through her convent training, evidently seemed to object to. And last, but not least, she would be kept in retirement, with daily chastisement by means of the carpio, until her heart was thoroughly softened and chastened by the lustful her tjmrl and last suitor should appear. Now, this decree, which at once went into effect, and was duly carried out, not forgetting even the daily chastening with her senses, and the daily social. One week of brought Wiki-tik to her senses, and she duly signified her repentance and willingness to wed with Rafael, or, for that matter, Diego. But she did not take it upon themselves other sweethearts, sent word that they were not to be bad. Wherefore it was the lot of poor Wiki-tik to remain under punishment until a third sailor should see it to present him. For a long time it looked as if even the fates could not, or would not, bring about the wedding of Wikl. As a matter of fact, her fame had gone abroad, and none of the young men dared take unto them the chance to begin with, she had learned at the convent to sew and embroider, and daily washed herself with water! Again, she had long since refused to wear the cushioned dress, and herself in gay pink or green prints, instead of the dark blue blanket with silver and turquoise necklets worn on ordinary occasions by women of her tribe. And there was no doubt (though this was not the case) that she loudly) that the girl, while conforming outwardly to the secret religious rites of the Pueblos, inclined to the worship of Tata Dios and the Santos. Oh, she was more than half Peed-peed-yeh (Mexican), but the man who took her to his house. Thus it went; every one talked, and the women of the pueblo, envying Wiki-kil her good looks and selfsame print gowns given her by the priest's sister, nested her in a pillow, and gave her girl's reputation. "Ah, without a doubt, she was without shame. She, of the Pueblos and yet not of them, Who, disallowing their clothes, wore clothes of the foreigners and shoes on her feet on feast day. A girl who washed herself and washed her chwe yest, as did they, for the making of the dress, Weif for Diego and Rafael that she had given them the cabazas. And so on, after the manner of women. Now, while the women gossiped (as between women than they have done), and old Intuition, she had his troublesome niece, who in turn waited in vain for a tutor (as many better women than she have done), other things were happening looking to the answering of the petitions that went up from the Intuition, and variously to Pueblo and Christian gods. Down in Abuquerque one "Short" Smith, ex-United States soldier, miner, THE APPEAL. Fine Arts Exhibit at the Pan-American Best Works of Artists.

A few morningings are a good way for the plants to Prospect. Park while the dew was still upon the leaves. The gardeners were just beginning work. Two old fellows were grumbling over a weeping bush and were ready to help for the plants to concoction to kill insects, and one of the said; "Mike, there's no use working over this. The more we sprinkle the more the lilies and the had been rilled. A man who was seated on a bench near walked up to the little tree, looked at, and said; "You will never be able to do anything that tree until you get rid of the ants in it. What have the ants to do with it?" one asked. The plant life, as they are, are apidises and the milk of cows the ants have. "The two men knew about plant lice, but had never heard of ants having milch cows, so they became at once interested in what the stranger had to say." The poison you have sprinkled on the tree keep the lice off for but a short time. The ants will carry them up the tree again." After a careful search along the ground, which the man had nearly dried, he called out: "Come here!" The man then pressed three. On the ground was a stream of ants, and each one had in its mouth an aphis. The line was headed for a small bush. Up the stem the ants went, and on the leaves deposited their sleek green kine. "Now, if you will watch," said the storm, "they will half a dozen or more ants will march in their handers. They will watch the aphides and will now and then milk them." This happened as he said. One of the gardeners had now become very much interested, and, in answer to his question, he said: "Many species of ants like aphides as milch cows, and some species employ other insects which yield sweet secretions. Gall insects and cocoel are kept by some, while one naturalist discovered a species that kept caterpillars of the coenoma for the sake of its sweet secretion. The ants guard their cows and care for them as a man does. When the pasturage gives out they move them. This accounts for the sudden disappearance of the lice from an infected plant, which the ants have regular stains for them in. The ants have regular stains for the lice in the winter they are fed on small bits of leaves that have been stored by the ants. Before I knew of the aphids I used often to wonder if the ants carrying pieces of leaves were taking them for bedding or for food. The ants care for the aphids, but they collect their eggs and guard and tend them as they do their own. Now, you may see how the ants milk their cows." By this time it has developed that the impromptu lecturer was a professor in a college. He drew from his pocket a strong needle and permitted each to watch the ants. As a result he approached an aphids it would play its antennae against the abdomen of the insect. In a second and two the aphids would be seen to give a little heave and excrete a limpid drop of juice which the ants devoured. Then he would rush off to another of his kind and repeat the operation until hunger was appeased. Then the instructor explained that if the ants were removed and the aphids left the tree, they would excrete until their load became abnormally heavy, the would show their discomfort as an unmilked cow does her, by uneasy movement. She was talking about the "Well" asked a gardener, "Why are ants bringing the lice to the trees how are we to get rid of them?" "Obviously, the only way is to kill the ants," was the reply. One of the gardeners scratched his head, with a grin, and remarked, "I guess that's right," and immediately began a war on the ants. To the Times man the instructor said: "The people of New York do not maintain the value of nature of plants. But how can one dame them when even a gardener is ignorant of one of the functions of the plant louse? Each park is an immense volume of nature, which it would take years for the resident of its neighborhood to read. Let him once begin to learn something and he will learn something new and interesting every day." - New York Times. THE GREAT TURQUOISE Continued from 2nd Col. from the hip, and a few fragmentary titles, like "The Great Gatsby," great, gray hill, gray hill many miles away, gray hill, gray hill," reference to "Los Indios - Cochinitas," short, knowing "New Mexico and Arizona as you and I know Broad street, made up his mind when he next cut it." $2.40 PER YEAR. Within a few minutes the two, by the aid of pantomiming and much broken Spanish, arrived at a mutual understanding. Wikit-tiki had her bonds and bandages, and she was able to see she gazed upon her fair-faced, blue-eyed deliverer, that a saint himself had been sent by the Virgin to help her. While as for poor, thirsty Shorty-upon-woman, she woke up two, and of the water cooling at the office, she was brought through which she had been precipitated upon him-he, in turn, thought that a dusky angel had been sent to him, and that, if they ever got out "O. K.," with the treasure, he would mourn her himself, and she would have been with her looks, he would take her to New York-yes, and to Paris and London, and she'd take the shine out of all of them. Which he, in his excitement, imparted to Wikit-tiki, who, not understanding, said, "I was afraid," and gazed at him in his adoration. Well, it all turned out properly. Now that a helpmeet had, as it were, been sent to him from above, Shorty felt that it behovened to get out, and that he believed it was the right thing to do, selfs and the treasure. And while he collected all the gold and turquoises they could carry, Wiki-tik hunted about for some way of exit, which she found in the shape of a very narrow animal's burrow. She found a large stone on which her feet rested, and which their movement had dislodged, was ingeniously contrived and placed on a groove, which made it open and shut at will by a certain pressure. And when the two escaped (not looking again at four feet) she found a large corner of the cave), they covered every trace to the caverns, and, having already pushed the great stone into position, filled up the cavity with fresh earth and other materials. She took the water bottle, they made haste to flee. By dawn they were far away, and soon thereafter were made man and wife. I may state, incidentally, that they lived happily there, and, were I to meet them, I would once recognize them as two of our richest and most aristocratic representatives in a great European city, where they cut a great swain, and where the beautiful woman was the millionaire, Mr. Blank, is greatly admired. Words fall when it comes to telling of the bewilderment of those mighty shamans, Inti and Namao, when as next morning, they found her gome, tame hole closed and no traces remaining. They realized that devils had taken her gome, and their sculpes, their sculpes, and the other on their charms and fetishes, they silently fled down the hill, and ran for miles before stopping. And not for millions can an inhuman creature be so powerful in miles of the "accursed hill" with its mysterious cross, the token of, fabulous wealth, of which the four skeletons alone remain to tell the tale of the "Great Turm of Canyngham Terry, in the Argonaut.

From the the visitor enters the large west gallery, roplete with the best work of the artists resident in America. In the center of the largest panel hangs a remarkable composition of landscapes by Dwight W. Tracy, a painter of the American West. The work of these painters has certainly never before been shown to such advantage, both artists being inspired by the delicate and tender aspects of nature, their work harmonizes beautifully with the landscape, showing of his work such as has rarely been shown, this brilliant group hangs an immense canvas by Thomas Moran, the painter of America's great Western scenery. To the right is a group of portraits by William M. Chase, showing his noted vigor and strength. To the left two figures by Abbott H. Thayer and one by George D. Forest Brush, painters differing vastly in their methods by achieving the highest success in depicting the human soul. Near his work "Harp Player," one of his finest paintings. On each side of the sculpture court are alcoves, upon the walls of which are arranged illustrations in color, watercolor, and gouache. Each piece is sent back in the East alcove, be a remarkable group of several oil paintings by the artist, and in the West alcove by the Pyle. Six of these works are the original from which drawings were made to illustrate a Danish legend in the December gallery, of etchings, engravings and illustrations in a wealth of beautiful works.

That blatant, braying blatherskite, benjamin tillman, who disgraces the United States senate as one of its members, has broken loose again, and in a speech in Marinette. Wis., expressed sentiments that brand him as the most inhuman thing that possesses the power of speech in this country. We cannot believe the old moral pervert is sane anyway, for no sane man would talk as he does. And if he is entitled to be considered sane, he certainly is a monomaniac on the subject of the "nigger." His hatred of his black brother is something terrible to contemplate. He said in his speech the other day that "there were more Christians among the 4,000,000 slaves than there are today among the 9,000,000 blacks of the South." Well, if there were Christians among the blacks then, and there are now, those Christian blacks must have souls, and having souls must be human beings, and being human beings, must be descendants of Adam and brothers of tillman, and the good book says: He who hates his brother is in danger of hell fire, and that what's the matter with tillman, and the devil will THE ART GALLERY · "The Sheepfold," by Charles Sprague Pearce, in the Center of the Opposite Wall. never have his own until he gets tillman. He actually advocated lynching as the only proper way to deal with his black brothers, and talked as though they were only lynched for rape, when less than one in ten lynched are guilty of that particular crime. He talked as if only black men raped women and said "the southern women could not be brought into court if testify to their shame and degradation to convict a beast;" how about a white rapist, if any less a beast than a black one? It's very strange about old tillman, and his assinine hatred of his black brothers, inclines us to the belief that he, himself, is a beneficiary of the statute of South Carolina which says that any person who has but one-sixteenth of black blood in his composition is white. This law was passed to save a large number of "accidents" in South Carolina and we verily believe tillman was among them. He is doing a lot of damage by his braying and ought to be muzzled. He is only trying to stir up strife, and condemned Booker Washington's method of educating his black brothers along industrial lines, as an attempt to place them on an equality "The Sheepfold," with white artisans. He told how he and others violated the constitution by taking their shot guns and deprived citizens of the United States of their constitutional rights and said they were ready and willing to do so again. Well, the day may come when he'll have to do so, if, as the press dispatches sa', his sentiments were applauded by thousands of whites who heard his damnable, inhuman, uncalled for brutal harangue. We wonder that old benill man does not refuse to accept his pay for disgracing the United States senate. Every piece of currency has to have on it the signature of the register of the treasury to make it good, and the register of the treasury is a "nigger." It is no more than would be expected that an Afro-American and a Republican, should find the English language inadequate to express his contempt and loathing of ben tillman, but in order that our readers may know in what estimation he is held by his colleague in the senate, Senator McLaurin, we quote from his letter in reply to the action of the Democratic state executive committee of South Carolina, condemning his action in the senate and demanding his resignation. In the course of the letter Senator McLaurin writes: "I hold my commission from the Democratic voters of South Carolina I recognize no authority' but theirs; take no orders from any source but them, and shall in due course appeal to them for judgment on my course as a senator and my character as a man "Personally, I am indifferent to your action, because nobody has made you my master or censor, and I regard you as a person of great importance pressing the malice and the fears of one individual, Senator B. R. Tillman. But for this always evil and indecent influence, ordinary respect for the man is not enough. I vented the four of you who are my declared competitors for the seat. I now have the honor to occupy, from attempting to use the power gruntured by you, to carry to remove a rival from your path. "I shall ask the people to decide between the man who has tried to help build factories, open highways of commerce, and command for the Democrate, and confidence and respect of the business and infrastructure North and South, and that of the man whose conduct and record has been such as to sink the party to disrepute, and impotence. I shall ask whether they prefer the senator who has been the most South Carolina the honor and dignity won by a long line of illustrious sons and glorious deeds, or the senator who has postured as buffoon andully, and who proclaimed on the floor of the house as a constituency of ballot-box stuffers derers who wanted their share of the stealage. "I desire to proclaim to the world THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER that you do not represent the intelligence of the Democracy of the people of South Carolina, and to you and Senator Tillman that he has never been made a man and paid the bill. The bill will not escape the vengeance that must surely fall upon him when the people have been made to understand his motives, his methods, his debased character and his shameful record. To that grand conservator of free government, the reserved parishioners, and common sense of the people, I make appeal against partisan intolerance and tyranny. WASHINGTON.

John Adams and Samuel Large, employees at the Terre Haute, Ind., car works, were fined $1 and costs each for calling Joseph Parish, a fellow workman. "Mark Hanna." Parish was so tormented and provoked by the men that he resigned his position and then preferred charges against them in a justice of the peace's court.

An interesting story is told apropos of a reporter's zeal to obtain news from the Chinese legation in Washington, D. C., regarding affairs in Pekin. He was an enterprising young fellow sent by his editor to take the place of the regular Washington correspondent, who was away on his vacation, and he had spent the whole day in the vicinity of the legation endowment to pick up something, not knowing that the most direct way would have been a sister. Wu himself, who is invariably kind about granting interviews. He was about to abandon his project when an intelligent looking and well dressed Chinaman came down the steps of the legation and responded so pleasantly to his greeting that he bombarded him with a whole list of questions, to which the polite Celestial repeatedly "Dun know, dun know." Finally quite desperate at his inability to make someone out of what he looked upon as a manager, a walk with one of the legation's secretaries, he asked, appealingly: "Well, surely you know something of the dowager empress; what do you think of her?" "Me no thinkee," responded the Chinaman, "me washe," and with this parting announcement he disappeared into a laundry near by, of which he burned out to be the proprietor--San Francisco Argonaut. To be ignorant of one's ignorance is the malady of the ignorant.—A. Bron- son Alcott. THE ART GALLERY WASHINGTON. THE CITY OF MAGNIFICENT DISTANCES. A Collection of a Few of the Events Occuring Among the Afro-Americans of the Capital of This Great and Glorious Nation for Our Many Readers. Consul Ruffin, at Anaconda, Paraguay, reports to the State Department that the importers and exporters of that city have formed a company to control the exports of Paraguay. The company will make contracts to producers, receive products, in consignment for export on commission, and transact such business as may in the opinion of the board further the interest of the company. In view of the willful violations of the company will make violations and the fact that no failures have taken place for the last few years, Consul Ruffin says business men in the country seem disposed to invest capital; and there is every hope that Paraguay will improve credit in foreign markets and extend her commercial relations.

"I learned a trick while in the Philippines in the matter of keeping birds out of fruit trees," volunteered a well-known official of the office department, "which may be of value to many just now, when so many cherries are being destroyed by birds. It is simple, inexpensive, and as far as I could observe, practical. It consists in hanging a small mirror on the top limbs of the tree. There should be a mirror, so that it can swing outward blown by the wind. The flash of the mirror, it appears, scares the birds away. One or two 5-cent mirrors hung on a tree is sufficient, though of THE MUSEUM OF ART AND COLLECTIONS THE CANADIAN GALLERY course, three or four would be much better. I was told that this method had worked in the Philippines successfully for many years, and that the birds do not grow familiar with it as they do with a scarecrow. Since my return here I find that the mirror scare is not unknown here, and that it has been in use by Michigan fruit growers for many years. I have tried my hand in a small way and it is amusing what a stir it creates among the birds." Queer Neighbors John Widgeon, the field collector of the Maryland Academy of Sciences, has had many experiences while collecting the specimens for the museum. He has captured almost every species of reptile both poisonous and otherwise, to be found in the state, and in their pursuit has noticed many peculiar and remarkable, he says, "how some of them are amphibians live in close proximity to each other. Several years ago while exploring Kent island I ventured up a forty-foot bickory tree to inspect a large fish-hawk's nest. When almost to the nest I was surprised to see an enormous black snake wrapped around the heavy sticks at the bottom of the bulky nest. The snake, although at such an unusual distance from the ground, did not lose its grip. When I dropped gracefully from limb to limb I reached the ground. Continuing to the nest, I found a large family of field mice. Above this was a nest full of little sparrows, and upon the top of the hawk's nest were three young hawks just hatching."—Baltimore Sun. --- (CONTINUE FROM FIRST PAGE) A group of twenty-two masterly tellings by James McNeil Whistler hangs in the center of one of the large panels.

In the sculpture court, between a double low of beautiful small bronze statues can be seen a plaster copy of the Shaw memorial, Augustus St. Gudanes. This has been reconstructed in the exposition, and shows the master hand of the great sculptor, contrasting remarkably with his small medallions shown in the same room. In the Shaw memorial, the sculptor has been given a giant, the workmanship on the small medallions would suggest the touch of a fairy hand. On the right hand side of this great work is Charles Grafly's sculpture of the future War," a single stooping figure of a man, fitted with trigle strength. Other works in this group are the statue of Michael Angelo, the equestrian statue of Lefayette, lately erected in Dancing Hall, all by Paul W. Barlett. Education and Worth THE BAR New Method of Hailing Logs, A departure from old methods of log transportation has been recently made on a building huge rafts. This consists in building huge rafts efficiently that they can be towed to San Diego cisco. It is no small undertaking to put to sea with a suspendous, unwieldy raft and successfully tow it almost a thousand miles; but the trip has been accomplished a number of times, and promises to become a regular business. The logs are principally for piling and posts, and one raft will contain as much as 500,000 lineal feet. The rafts are built somewhat in the shape of a colossal log, and each log is fitted carefully to the The whole is fastened together with tons of chains, till the danger of go- ing to pieces at sea is reduced to a minimum. Ans That Raise Mushrooms. Professor W. M. Wheeler describes a species of ants which raise "mushrooms" for food. They first cut leaves into small pieces and carry them into their underground chambers. Then they reduce the leaves to a pulp which they deposit in a heap. In this heap the mycelium of a species of fungus finds lodging, and the subterranean conditions favoring such a result minute dwellings are produced on the vegetable mass. These are the "mushrooms", which constitute almost the sole food of the colony of ants that cultivated them.

Bob Stewart, Bourron and Democrat, was the most pictureque character who ever occupied the executive mansion in Missouri. He defeated Major James S. Robins for governor in 1857. The governor was from St. Joseph and many are the stories told of this eccentric and ardent. The following incident illustrates Governor's keen noted throughout Missouri. The sense of humor for which he was the custom of the governor to question the convicts in the penitentiary as to why they were imprisoned. The invariable answer was an avowal of innocence and of wrongful conviction. Finally, in his rounds he encountered one prisoner, who said he was imprisoned for horse stealing. "Are you guilty?" asked the governor. "Well, governor, I guess I am; I took the man in stripes. Get right one of them in the library." Governor Stewart vehemently rejoiced "You will contaminate all these innocent men who have been wrongfully placed here." The fellow was released immediately, and a pardon was filed out for him.

I haye on one occasion seen one shag feed ag many as three water hens before eating a single fish, It is certainly a singular display of stupid ity, and, atter having watehed the per- formance a number of times, T am convinced that the shag is actually too dull to.even keow that the water hei stands behind him to steal the fish out of bis moith."“—New Orleatis Mmes- Demscrat osc} 66 99 Ik Con” Ta . is about all there is:to some advertisements, especially. in the clothing business.

Along with the imported trees came their in- sect enemfes, notably the scale insect and the aphis, Th the course of time these increased so prodigiously that they threatened to destroy the indus- tries of the country. Man is doomed to 2 constant struggle against nature, and he fs often compelled, so to speak, tovfight her with her own weapons. So it was in this case. ‘The trees were being destroyed by insects; remedy: import more insects. So in 1890 a cer- tail Iadybird (Vedatia cardinalis) was sent over from Australia, It became completely naturalized, and increased prodigiously, feeding on the scale in- sects, which it soon reduced in num- bers, until they became comparatively scarce. But there were other Insect plagues—aphices and others of differ- ent orders, ‘The government therefore employed a naturalist to import more Insects. These were brought trom Australia, and many of them have es- tablished’ themselves and done good service. One of the most useful is a ladybird which feeds on the aphides, which had seriously attacked the sugar canes. Tt has done such good work that there is every prospect of the canes being speedily cured.—Cham- vers’ Journal, ee re Shed ‘The tip question bothers Monte Carlo, too, and as a result of the laxity due to giving and taking tips eight eroupiers have been dismissed and ‘other employes of the gambling estab- Mshment have been disciplined.

Of course the ag- grieved player could go up higher and appeal to officers superior to the erot- pler, but this course usually is dis- tasteful to gamblers, The spirit of dis- satisfaction grew so strong that some thing radical had to be done, for the bank wins from $4,000,000 to $5,000,000 & year from the players, besides what the players win from one another.
