The Appeal

VOL. 18. NO. 28 A NUISANCE SUPPRESSED. A Patient Man Rebukes a Know-All a Theater. The theater nuisance presents himself in various annoying phases. The late-comer and the man with the unquenchable thirst who doesn't make any effort to secure an end seat have come to be regarded as irresponsible subjects of toleration. They are mild infilctions compared with the "soft" couple that insist on holding an audible tete-dete during the progress of the play, regardless of the annoyance they may be experiencing near them and possibly the players also conscienceless prattlers seemingly care not whether they break into an important denement or climax in the stage proceedings, and how often have we been irritated almost beyond control by the ill-timed senseless titer of the uncultured during the action of a pretty love scene. Then there is the fellow who has seen the play before, and who insists on taking his confidence and outlining its movement between the between acts during its presentation. And more intolerable than the insufferable family of professors to know the family history of every member of the cast, their little eccentricities and fads. He will tell you (while the performance is going on) that Mille, Hoopla was formerly the wife of the dude son of old Joshua Moneybags; that Horatio Haggard the husband of Tile Fewclothes, the soubrette; that Flosse Darell, the woman wears her own diamonds, and the Chica bird imitator, was once a lowly swear dog. That is, if it happens to be a vaudeville performance, as it was in this instance. A certain man who goes to the theater to be amused and not annoyed was unfortunately placed next to one of these bores the other night. The bore had given a running biography of each performer as he or she came on, and the sufferer stood the persecution to the limit of unusual good nature and patience. Finally he was full upon the offender with the annihilator, and they pray, my friend, what do you want me to censure enumerator?" The bore looked grieved for a moment, but he was effectively suppressed.—Detroit Free Press. THE SALVATION ARMY. Its Work Has Grown Into Proportions of Surprising Magnitude. The work or the Salvation Army in the United States may be a surprise to those who have little knowledge of their projects nor realized what benefit is given by the hard-work exhorters who are seen of an evening preaching in the streets to the casual listeners. Small enough seems the reallocation to their labors, but the following article will show the importance and extension of their influence: Seven hundred and thirty-two corps and outposts, 45,000 annual conversions, 2,800 officers, 93,000 weekly circulation War Cry, in English, German, Scandinavian and Chinese, 190 social relief institutions, 545 officers annually spent in poor relief, 7,290 annually accommodated for poor, 2,500,000 beds annual accommodation, 66 working hotels's hotels, 6 women's hotels, 24 food depots, 24 industrial homes for the unemployed, 3 farm colonies, 1,300 acres colonized, 240 colonists, 5 employment bureaus, 13 second-hand stores, 19 rescue homes for fallen women, 450 rescued animals, 15 cared for each year, 24 slum settlements, 80 officers in charge—Detroit Free Press. Lands Where Women Drudge Women Bride Neither women or brides are allowed to loaf in Austria and Hungary. The latter are employed to haul delivery wagons from the shops and markets. Sometimes they are assisted by a woman or a boy, sediment by a grown man. You never see dogs capering about the streets. They are not often so high spirited. Hard work takes out of them, and when you see dog wagons in a town, generally walking along as solitary a tired man going home from his work. The sphere of woman's usefulness has been extended to include hod-carrying, ditch-digging, shovelling gravel on railroads and other heavy labor. I have seen her making mortar and assisting her lay paving stones in the street, but she carries bricks and mortar, she carries bricks and mortar, ladder four stories, but the man at the top does all the work.—Correspondence Chicago Record-Herald. Flowers and Gardens in Alaska. Flowers and Gardens in Alaska. We encourage reports have been received on the geography, Georgeson, in charge of the agriculture, and ment stations in Alaska. On a trip into the interior and down the Yukon early in August he found new potatoes, cabbages, cauliflowers and other vegetables ready for the table, and gardens blooming with a variety of animal flowers. At Rampart rye and this year, there was a fair promenade, and wheat. On the lower Yukon extensive tracts were found covered with luxurious grasses, often six feet in height, and apparently well suited to agricultural purposes. Youth's Companion.

WAR AGAINST MOSQUITOES Campaign Conducted by Private Enterprise in Sierra Leone. The campaign against mosquitoes in Sierra Leone, as set forth by Major Ross in the progress report of the Liverpool School of Tropical Science, will be instructive to all interested in the public health. The campaign is the first ever carried out on a large scale with the object of ridding an entire town in the tropics of mosquitoes. It is probably the first instance of public sanitary measures being undertaken by the agency and by private funds. Despairing of curing help from the authorities, Major Ross set about the work of extirpating malaria in Sierra Leone by private enterprise. His forces were divided into two gangs, one the culex gang, to collect from private houses all broken bottles, empty tin cans, and old calabashes, in which mosquitoes of the genuses stegomyia and culex breed. The duty of the anopheles gang was to collect from the large rainfall, 160 inches annually, but in a few weeks it made great progress in attacking the pools and puddles, by filling them, draining, sweeping them out, treating them with petroleum, crescoe, etc. The results are described as "unexpectedly engaging." It is too soon to formulate an initiative to tackle the number of cases of the disease. As to yellow Yeer Major Ross expects speedy results because it is not a lingering disease, and as regards the other two mosquito-borne diseases, malaria and filariasis, the good results will not be so immediately manifest. Major Ross does not think there is much evidence that the mosquitoes are carried far by the winds, and hence the utility of destroying the breeding places. He commends the American government and energy with which they have attacked this question, so different from the hesitation and apathy generally shown by the British." A forthcoming work is promised, called "Mosquito Brigades and How to Organize The."-American Medicine. LIKED IN BROOKLYN Story of How Dr. Bethune Got a Seat in a Ferryboat. The Rev. Dr. Cuyler of Brooklyn tells a story, the authenticity of which he yauches for, about Dr. Bethune, who had a successful pastorate, reaching over many years, in one of the Dutch Reformed churches of Brooklyn. Late in his life a flattering offer was made him to take a New York church. After he met a pleasing Dr. Bethune, decided to remain in Brooklyn, and declined the offer, to the great satisfaction of his own parishioners. Some weeks later Dr. Bethune had occasion to cross the East River ferry. It was during the early morning rush hours. There was a great crowd on the boat, and he was obliged to stand up. Presently one of the passengers got up and began to signal to the doctor, by which he was able to come and take his seat. As he noticed that the man was considerably under the influence of liquor, and wished to avoid attracting attention, he took the proffered seat. But the donor was not satisfied then. He put his hand heavily on the doctor's shoulder, and said in a maudlin tone: "I say, 'Doc,' yer don't know how much we think of yer in Brooklyn ever since yer told that he was a big salesman, yer a big salary ter come over to New York and save their souls, that you'd see 'em damned first.'"—New York Tribune. A Glimpse of Senator Hanns. Senator Hanna personally sees from fifty to three hundred people a day when he is in his office in Cleveland, and he is said to have the faculty of seeming interested in the little affairs of the caller even when his great political and business interests are demanding his attention. He almost always has a cigar between his teeth, and one who knows him well says: "If the Senator lets his cigar go out while you are presenting your case, you will be surprised that he is interested. If he pulls away at it, in short, quick puffs, you are wasting your eloquence and breath, and if he turns to his desk to relit it or light another, you may conclude the interview is terminated." Hadn't Borrowed Trouble Many diffident persons find the beginning of a conversation awkward, especially on ceremonial occasions, and with strangers. Sometimes, however, the beginning is not half so awkward as what comes afterward. A bashful young man on being introduced to a lady at a dinner party said: "I've got to take you in to dinner, Miss Travers, and I'm rather afraid of you, you know. Everyone tells me you're not naturally amused by this display of simplicity. "How absurd!" she exclaimed. "I'm not a bit clever." The young man heaved a sigh of relief and answered: "Well, do you know, I thought you weren't!"—London Tit-Bits. Keen Observation. "Do you know anything about the people who have moved next door?" she inquired. "Not much" he answered; "except that their honeymoon is not yet over." "How did you find that out?" "By observing. It was raining when he came home this evening, but she did not make him stop at the front door to wipe his feet."—Washington Star. THE APPEAL. POLITICAL RETIREMENT GROVER EDITORIAL WATTERSON RIGGS PHOTOGRAPHING A QUEEN. Her Royal and Ordinary *Kmiles*—Why One Likeness Was Soothed. A London photographer who has probably taken more photographs of kings and queens than any other man in the world has been confiding to the public, under a discreet but not wholly blind incognito, his professional experiences with royalty. "The Queen of Holland," he says, "is, with King Edward, one of the most charmingly easy sitters I ever took. She does not mind to what trouble she puts herself long as she can please you and look at her majesty once said to me, as a queen once. Shortly before her marriage I was summoned to Amsterdam to take you. I was somewhat nervous at first in the royal presence and Queen Wilhelmina quickly noticed this. 'Now I want to look very nice indeed in this photograph,' said her majesty, smiling, 'and if you feel ill at ease I am sure you will not be able to do justice to yourself or to me.' After that I soon lost all my nervousness. I thought her majesty looked rather too dignified and, stately, so I said: 'Will your majesty smile a little? I am sure the photograph will come out much better. Certainly. But I cannot laugh and said: 'Certainly. But I cannot laugh and said: 'Like a queen or like a princess.' The photograph proved to be a fine one and Queen Wilhelmina was delighted with it. 'Oh, you have indeed taken me nicely this time,' she PO RET said some time afterward to me as she examined the picture. "Why, this photograph is far better than the other one you took of me! But then you were not to blame. I remember I had been on at the time, and oh, how they portrayed you can look happy or cheerful with tight boots?" "—New York Sun. THE RED SEA PASSAGE Booker Washington's Story of an Old Colored Presser I remember that in one of his talks Mr. Washington, referring to his belief that the most profitable education of the people of his race required various methods, according to the needs of the people under different conditions, told a story of an old colored preacher who was endeavoring to exert his congregation how it was that the children in a parish passed over the Red sea safely, within the Egyptians, who came after them, drowned. The old man said: "My brethren, it was this way: When the Israelites passed over it was early in the morning, while it was cold, and the ice was strong enough so that they went over all right; but, when the Egyptians came along it was in the middle of the day, and the sun had thawed the ice so that it gave way At this a young man in congregation, had been to saw him and had come home, rose and said: 'I don't see how that explanation can be right, parson. The geography that I have been studying tells us that ice never forms under the equator, and the Red sea is nearly under the equator. "There, now," said the old preacher, "that's all such fool question. The time I see about was before they had any acquaintance with either. "That good old man." Mr. Washington, "was just trying in his simple manner to brush away the cobwebs which stood in the way of his logic. By some such method the mis- --- conceptions which hamper the courses of education for the colored people must be removed before the best results can be attained." - Outlook. The Two Blind Chaplains The Two Blind Chapkins. Across the broad plaza in front of the Capitol the other day walked two blind men. The two chapkins of the House and Senate. These two blind men are among the most esteemed personalities in Congress. The Rev. Dr. Milburn, with his long gray whiskers and his black slouch hat, is a familiar figure. He walks upon the arm of his daughter, gently feeling his way with a cane, and is always in his appointed place, at the hour of noon, no matter whether it rains or snows or blows. His prayers are models of exquisite expression, and are uttered in a dee dee, musical, impressive newspapers are read to him every morning, going to the Capitol, so that if there is an great event which needs to be mentioned in his prayer it is not overlooked. The Rev. Mr. Couden, the chapain of the House, hides his eyes beneath dark blue glasses. He is tall and dignified, and, like his colleague in the Senate, is very eloquent.—Washington Post. The Actor Secured. Some years ago an actor now famous made his first appearance on the stage in a provincial town where the theater-goers were accustomed to make POLITICAL IREMENT EDITUAL GROVER WATTERSON: "GET BACK INSIDE!" their unsupproval rett when an entertainer did not succeed in pleasing them. He was young and nervous, and failed dismally in the part he was endeavoring to present, and soon encountered an assortment of missiles. When the roar was at its height one of his disgusted auditors funga a cabbage-head at him. As it fell on the stage the actor picked it up and steppeed forward to the footlights. He raised his hand to command alliance, and when his tormentors paused to hear what he had to say, exclaimed, pointing to the cabbage-head: "Ladies and gentlemen, I must please you with my acting, but I confess I did not know anyone in the audience would lose his head over it." He was allowed to proceed without further molestation—Toronto News. OLD-TIME STATESMAN FORGOTTEN Yet Oliver Eilsworth Rendered Valuphis Services to the Nation. Why is it that Oliver Elsworth has received so little attention from blographers and historians? ask Gaylord Cook in the April Atlantic. He was not born in Mas-achusets or Virginia. In Connecticut, like Pennsylvania, the historic field has been meagerly tilled. Moreover, the dramatic and opportune quality of his work has been perceived only through the perspective of subsequent years. To accommodate an unpunched convention for a jury just retiring from office in the 1970s and ignominy is not conduct to immature fame. Nevertheless he has not been made a subsequent statement. Webster said of him: "For strength of wisdom, for sagacity, wisdom and sound good sense in the conduct of affairs, for moderation of temper, and general ability, it may be doubted if New England has yet produced his superior." What he said, as chief justice of the United States, to the gury and jury at Savannah, in 1796, was the aim of his: "So let us rear an emprise sacred to the rights of men; and command a degree of reason to the nations of the earth." ```markdown ``` CRYSTAL GAZING. Andrew Lang Recommends It as a New Disaster for Los Angeles Society, using the word in the fairy common sense of people having nothing else to do, take up a pastime so thoroughly for a short time that it is called a "crase," may follow Andrew Lang's advice and go in for "crystal gazing." Mr. Lang, in an article in the Monthly Review, has been recommending his readers to purchase crystal balls from the Psychical Research Society, peer into them earnestly, and see what they shall see, then send along the result to him. In his instructions to crystal-gazing novices Mr. Lang says: "It is best to go alone a room at sit down with the back to the door, and sit there, focus in the lap on a dark dress, on dark piece of cloth, try to exclude reflections, think of anything you please, and stare for, say, five minutes at the ball. That is all." The crystal is a spherical ball of solid glass, about two inches in diameter. Mr. Lang has known people who have seen in a crystal things that are actually happening miles away. More wonderful, he has known two persons, gazing into separate crystals at the same moment, to see the same picture. Why can people see pictures of real persons and real things that he was? Mr. Lang hints that it might be a survival of some organ that was useful to man when his ancestors were other kinds of animals." The secret WATTERSON REISE tary of the Psychical Research Society says that as a result of Mr. Lang's article he has been having more orders for crystals than he can execute. The only trouble is that Mr. Lang held out the false hope that a crystal could be bought for as little as half price at which the price is price at which they can be furnished. lings each—London Correspondence New York Sun.

One Fooled by Red Shirt and Another by Epicure Hardlight "When a man's sitting in an engine cab, looking up the track with a constant watch for danger a burden on his mind," said an engineer, "things sometimes look different from what they really are. This is especially true if after long service his eyes begin to be a little affected. I used to know an old engineer who was one of the most careful men on the road. In fact, he was always worried, and fear of an accident to be almost a mania with him. Opposite to that, he was long freight down a pretty fair grade, when he suddenly clapped on the air, and gave the 'highball' with the whistle, sending the brakemen out over the train setting the hand brakes as fast as they could. Finally they brought the train to a stop, and everybody ran up to see what the matter. Among the men who came up was a red-shirted section man. When the fellow got rip out the big engine, began to rip out the big string of cues I ever heard. He damned it. The man who would wear a red shirt while working on the section, for Jack had seen that shirt and thought was a red flag and stopped his train. "I had an experience myself not long ago," spoke up another engineer, "It was since the new electric headlights were put in. You know how they look coming up the track. They are so bright you can't see anything else, and its hard to tell whether they are flaring or not. I was running a freight car and I didn't see anything. We were coming around a curve just before making a sliding to pass another train, when one of those electric headlights flashed on me. I thought it was all over with me, but I stopped to put on the brakes and reverse, and hung on just a minute in the hope of getting the train stopped before I jumped. The grade wasn't very heavy and I got the train stopped all right. Before I started to jump I looked and I discovered then that the light didn't seem to be clear, and investigated and found that the other train was at a standstill and waiting for me at the switch."—Salt Lake Herald. HOW HE TIPPED THE PORTER: An American Who Got Even with French Hotel Tricksters. "Powelson, the pioneer of American photography in a business sense, was a born humorist," said W. A. Cooper, the photographer, the other day. "I believe he might have been a rival of Mark Twain if he had turned his attention that way. Many years ago I went over to Europe with him on a business trip, which turned out to be one of the pleasantest jaunts I ever had. They have a custom—or had—one of the sticks of sticking a number of candles to your room and charging you one franc each for them, whether you light them or not. Powelson never got recruited to that. One day just before we left a certain hotel he said to me, looking round our room, 'Cooper, do we have to pay a franc each for all these candies?' "I said that was the usual charge. "And all those porters and waiters down-stairs will expect to be tipped, too." "I believe they will," I said. "How much?" "Oh, about a franc, I suppose." "All right, then." "He didn't say any more at the time. But next morning, when we were getting ready to start, I saw him taking the candies out of the candlesticks and putting them in his pocket. When he got down-stairs Powelson pulled one of the candies out of his pocket and handed it to me. He was ready for a tip from him. 'Here's a franc for you. You can cash it in the office.'"—New York Times. Wall Street's "Kangaroo." There is a class of operators in Wall street. They are called "Kangaroos." What is a Kangaroo? Well, a Kangaroo is a man who jumps in and out of the market, fearful lest he has made a mistake in going in and equally distrustful as to his judgment in selling out. He has all the characteristics of a kangaroo—a quick jumper either way. Meantime, he exhausts his wind, his legs, and not least of all, his margin. From time immemorial there have bulls and bears and lams in Wall street, but only recently has Wall street observed this new class of operators, the Kangaroos. He can serve as a nerve in any direction. He is flighty, erratic, and of no use to himself or his friends, but then it must be said in justice to the Kangaroo that only in times like those of the last few weeks have there been opportunities to display kangaroo characteristics.—Chicago Journal. Classified. Stories of Father Taylor, the sailors' friend, are perennial in their warm human interest. He was a man who at all times spoke with an engaging frankness which sometimes became more bruise than was desirable. A banker from the West End of Boston once visited Father Taylor's church during a fervid revival, and varied the usual character of the meeting by a rather pompous address. Its purport was that the merchant princes of Boston were a very beneficent set of men, whose wealth and enterprise gave employment to thousands of sailors, the duty of seamen to show their merchant's the merchants. At the close of his speech the banker was somewhat taken aback when Father Taylor rose and asked simply: "Is this any other sinner from uptown who mild like to say a word?" Youth's _mansion_ $2.40 PER YEAR. A Mistake of Nature Revealed by the Telegraph. A woman's Morse is as feminine as her voice or her handwriting. I have often put to the test my ability to distinguish between the Morse of a man and that of a woman, and only once have I been 'deceived', says L. C. Hall in McClure's Magazine. On this same Washington "circuit" I one day encountered a sender at the other end, a stranger, who for hours 'roasted' at me. I seldom had been in my telegraphic desk the dote and dashed poured from the desk into bewildering torrent, and I had the hardest kind of work to keep up in copying. With all its fearful swiftness the Morse was clean-clipped and musical, though it had a barsh, staccato ring which indicated a lack of sentiment and feeling in the transmitter. From this, and from a certain swagger, I gathered, before the day of the event a pretty distinct impression of the transmitter, I conceived him to be of a hard-kept, aggressively clean appearance, with a shining red complexion and close-cropped hair; in brief, whose whole manner and make-up bespoke the self-satisfied sport. That he wore a diamond in his loudly striped shirt front I considered extremely likely, and that he carried a thick between his lips was morally correct, took occasion to make some inquiries of the operator at Washington. "Oh, you met T. Y," he said, laughing. "Yes, for a girl, she is a fly sender." It was a mertifying find that I had mistaken the sex of the sender, but I was consoled when I met the young woman. The high coloring was there, and the self-satisfied air; so also were the masculine tie, the man's vest and the striped shirt. Nor were the diamond pin and the writing. When she introduced herself by calling me "Cully" and said I was "a cracked jack receiver." I was convinced that it was nature, and not I, that had made the mistake as to her sex. CHEAP LIVING IN MICHIGAN Its Beet Sugar Makers Appear to Live on $34.09 a Year. We comply willingly with the request of Mr. Henry B. Joy of Detroit to print a statement by him as to the extent of the beet sugar industry in Michigan, and the effect thereupon of a reduction of the duties on Cuban sugar, or of free sugar from Cuba through the annexation of the island. It is quite fair that Mr. Joy's side of the question should have a public hearing. Mr. Joy estimates that about men, women and children in Michigan alone are dependent upon adequate government protection to beet sugar. He the families of the farmers raising the beet food for the families of the operators in the industries making the sugar, allowing five persons to a family. This is a somewhat loose mathematical process, but we suppose it will answer. At the same time Mr. Joy predicts that Michigan will produce this year a tonnage of beet sugar "approaching" 75,000. That is to say, with sugar at 3 cents a pound, 122,000 persons in Michigan would depend for their income the producers share of the $4,500,000 representing the gross product. Yet if producers got every cent of it, then they only $34.00 a year for each individual, 122,000. But the farmers and the nonmeets need every cent of it on the one hand or the other, there is apparently something wrong with Mr. Joy's figures. We infer that the statistical part of his interesting has not been prepared with the thoroughness devoted to the politico-economical and the politico-emotional parts.-New York Sun. Work the Secret of Success. The more I learn concerning the careers of great operatists, the more I am convinced that their success is due to the union of extraordinary talent with extraordinary perseverance, says a writer in the Woman's Home Companion. Work, work, work! In the gilded, brilliantly illuminated realm of the stage, where everything seems so easy to the listener and beholder, work, unceasing work, is as necessary to success as in the most prosaic of occupations. "I was never idle," Mme. Nordica said to me, in speaking of her early career. "Nor," she added, "have I ever been since. I am always singing or studying." Only summer ago, after a strentuous season in London, Mme. Nordica went another in London, Mme. Nordica went to Zurich, where Mme. Cosima, Wagner's widow was stopping, and with her studied Sieglinde, in "die Walkure."

Stories of looting in Peking continue to filter through, and a high official of the Straits Settlements who happened to be in Peking during the troubles of last year tells of a Chinese servant, a Christian telltown, who was sent out, when the legations were re-arranged, to obtain provisions. He begged for them as protection. The pair returned with the provisions in a magnificent equilap, Christian Chinaman and heathen Sikh imperturbable as ever. Asked how he had come by so valuable a vehicle, the Chinamen replied that he had met a countryman, who had "persuaded him to make the exchange." From the sales of Chinese goods, the Chinamen it may be inferred that such manners were frequently exercised by natives of generous impulses—London Chronicle. a ft Lay ekeodf TES il hu) \ au be aay THE APPEAL, A.WATIOHAL AFRO-AMERIGAN HEWSPAPEL ‘PORLIEND WEKELE BY ADAMS BROS.

And In’the heart of Sour Imperial young repubit have planted, sure and deep, the mis ery of this ancient curse I bear” Mr. Brown's idea 1s that the Mlterat ot Of the South should be Jott in thelr ignorance; he fears tha they are acquiring too much kpow! edge, and it has besn sald that “Know! edge is a dangerous thing.” Mr. Brow fs wrong in flinging this taunt int the faces of the entire race, for th Afro-Americans of the South have, dur Ing the forty years of freedom, wiped out a greater percentage of iliterac than bave’the!Gauasians: Mr. W. P: Calhoun, of Greeneville S.C. 1s an advocate of the separation of the raées. He thinks that all of the Afro-Americans, ought to be taken to one of the Western states, be given full-cohtrol, and be compelfed to tiv thete. This scheme 8 an old one, and has-been advocated for years By vari ous Southern gentlemen. One grea trouble about the matter is: to deci ‘who are Afro-Americans. The so-call ed white people have associated 5 much with thelr black neighbors tha it is hard to tell who is white and whe is black, Final judgment bas een rendered at Jetlerson City, Mo., by the Court o Appeals, whereby Wyatt Ryans, the old Afro-American body servant of th late Dr. Charles H. Bradford, come: into possession of $7,938. Dr. Brad ford was an invalid, and for years be fore Is death required the service of a body servant. No regular wage were paid Ryans, who sued after his éacloreee tie. A man died last Monday in Jefter- sonvilie, Ind, who is indirectly respon sible for a terrible lot of trouble in this world, He was a. fustlce of the peace named John H.

The Frawley season in St. Paul will open at the Grand Opera House Sunday evening, July 13th, when the company will present an elaborate production of "Mme. Sans Gloire," masterful drama, "Mme. Sans Gloire," which is country by a country Kidder and played at various times by Rejane and Ellen Terry as well. It is an ambitious undertaking to take the company to popular prices, but "Mme. Sans Gloire," one of the best liked dramas in the Frawley repertoire, and, consequently it has been retained despite the fact that it calls for an elaborate scenic environment. However, the chief appeal of the play is not to the eye, but to the imagination. It suggests to the auditor the inconstructions of Napoleon's court. It tells of the attitudes of character, and like all Sassons's dramas, it tells an interesting story. Produced in this country at a time when Napoleon was the literary fad of the day, "Mime, Sans Gene" has surged. It has been used by the leading players of the three countries, and in all of them have made palpable hits. Ellen Terry's "Sans Gene" will be re-released in 2015, and other roles have faded from recollection. Rejane is still "Sans Gene" to her countrymen, and in this country the names of Katheryn Kilder cannot be forgotten. French blancheuse. It is easy to realize, therefore, that Miss Mary Van Buren, who will play the title role in the forthcoming production, has no interest in the part is not a new one so far as Miss Van Buren is concerned. On the contrary, she has scored in it the greatest success of her career, and may be required to duplicate her triumph here. FINE SHOWING OF BANKS OF ST. BAU The healthy condition of St. Paul's finances is demonstrated by the abstract issued by the comptroller of the currency, taken from the returns of national banks of date April 30. The position in the matter of increase of bank deposits, the comparison between 1892—one of the biggest and best business years the country has even known—and the current year shows an increase of 70 per cent in deposits, in contrast to the increase in $24,780,000 for the present year. One of the phenomenal instances of individual growth is that of the St. Paul National bank, which shows a gain over the year 1892 of 178 per cent, giving total deposits at the time of publication to $2,425,748.30. This is by far the best showing made by any of the St. Paul national banks, and is therefore worthy of especial comment. Among the other national banks an instance is shown by each, the smallest being per cent. Altogether St. Paul's shows an increase in the indicative of an extremely healthy condition of mercantile affairs. May 25th, 1902, at 6:30 a.m., m. passed from the joys and sorrows of this life, into the perfect life, Mrs. Harriett Louisa (Chesley) Mackey. She was a teacher in the school, O. Md., June, 1836, and was married Robert Mackey, October, 1852. Age 66 years. Since early childhood she has been a resident of Wagerstown, Md., and had lived in the house where she died in 1902. She came a Christian, and joined Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, of which she was a faithful member until death. The church and community suffers a great loss by her death, which touches her heart. She has been loved, respected and honored for her sterling integrity as a Christian of personal piety and genuine benevolence, and as a wife and mother, in the sacred precinct of a cultured and beautiful home life. She is a woman of great manliness, ever ready to help the needy, and to assist in every good work, a kind and loving wife and mother, and thoughtful of others, full of sympathy for all suffering, keenly responsive to the life of the church, a lovely friend, and a humble disciple of the Lord Jesus. The last hours of her life were quiet rest, from which she went out gently, without struggle. Her face was srilling, with tears. Her face content and satisfaction written upon it.

Defective Page IN MEMORIAM The slight trace, which the years had made was removed, and the look of youthful days returned. She was a member of "Perseverance Lodge No. 3." Independent Order of God Sisters, and Daughters of Samaria, also of "The Laboring Sons and Daughters." She leaves to mourn their great loss a husband, two daughters, Cora L. at home, Mrs. Martha Cautonpum of Hamburg, Penn., one son, Wm. K. St. Thomas, four grandchildren, one at home, earl Webster, and three in Harrisburg. But they mourn not as those without hope. They feel that she has only gone a little before, and is waiting with other loved ones, to welcome them. They too, shall have crossed over and blessed the dead that die in the Lord. The family wishes to thank all friends for their kindness to her during her illness, and pray God's blessing upon them. "He is hard to break the tender cord." We wish to house the heart.

LITTLE ADVANCEMENT IN CANADA Population Increases Only Through Influx of Undesirable Immigrants Not only has there been but little increase in the total population of Canada during the last twenty years, as is shown by the latest census, but according to the Montreal Star, what increase there has been is due largely to the influx of Chinese, Japanese, Scandinavian Russians, Italians, Galicians and Poles. These replace people of British, Irish and other non-essent who migrate to the United States. Furthermore, Canada is serving as a dumping ground for immigrants excluded from the United States because of their undesirability. Within six months, some 4,000 immigrants or this sort, unable to cross the border, have been left stranded in Canada, and what this means is explained by the Robert Watchhorn, special United States immigration inspector at Saul Kirk, director to the effect that 98 per cent of peasant emigrants are suffering from infectious diseases, the direct result of filth and lack of sanitary method.

There is no wild breed of fowl to which the Brahma or Cochin can be traced. The gamecock seems to be descended from the Cingalese jungle fowl. The hottest place on earth last year was on the Persian side of the Gulf of Persia. During ten consecutive days in July and August the temperature never fell below 100 degrees. In case of a cold-wave warning 100,-000 telegrams are often distributed with no hours, and the weather bureau claims that in no instance $3,400,000 worth of property was saved. A transatlantic steamer carrying what is called a "full mall" usually brings 200,000 letters and 300 sacks of newspapers for London, to say nothing of the 500 and odd sacks for other places. Divers are able to converse under water by placing their helmets, which are invariably made of copper, together and shouting to one another. The sound, they say, is swiftly and distinctly conveved. SENTIMENT OF AUTHORS. Love is to be taken as we find it, without philosophy, science, analysis, or even much description—Shacklett, by Walter Barr.

This is the title of an interesting volume of 372 pages, the author of which is Hon. Mifflin Winstar Glab, of this country, and leading Afro-American citizen of Arkansas, but is regarded as one of the most prominent representatives of his race in the South. He is an entertaining and charming man of varied experience. He is self-made, full of energy and has been pushing himself forward for the past half century. He has filled several posts of distinction, and all creditably, has been a member of the court of this city, afterward register of United States lands, receiver of public monies for the United States, and recently, United States consul to Madagascar. His admirable work, "The History of the Autobiography with reminiscences of the last and present century. The introduction was written by Prof. Booker T. Washington, in which a high-quality essay was written. "It is seldom," says Prof. Washington, "that one man, even if he has lived as long as Judge M. W. Gibbs, is able to record his impressions of so man, widely separated parts of the world, and to recall personal experiences in so many-important occurrences." The volume is embellished with many por- traits of distinguished individuals who are subjects of the author's fruitful pen. There is not a single dull page in the book. It is highly commended by the press and is meeting with a wide sale.-little Rock (Ark). Gazette CHICAGO IS FOURTH GREAT PORT Exceeded in Tonnage York by London. New York and Hamburg. In the thirty years since 1870 Chicago's shipping has more than quadrupled and in the tonnage of arrivals and clearances Chicago now ranks among the ports of the world, following London, New York and Hamburg. The latest figures relating to this matter are: London, 16,529,055 tons; New York, 16,445,320; Hamburg, 14,188,817; Michigan, 14,766,100; Antwerp, 13,573,472; Liverpool, 11,818,000, and Marselles, 9,629,114. Chicago leads all United States ports except New York in tonnage, and the constant extension of lake traffic has added not only to the commerce of Chicago, but likewise very largely to the commerce of Cleveland, now a very important port of entry; Buffalo, Milwaukee and Toledo. The chief articles of commerce on the lakes are wheat, flour, coal, iron and timber. In 1871, the number of A Fairy Tale.

Birds of a feather occasionally prefer to flock apart. The man who has a large heart cannot have a light one. What is sauce for the gander may be saucy for the goose. One who knows does not talk; one who talks does not know. If you mind your own business you won't work more than eight hours a day. "They belong to the landed aristocracy." "Indeed! when did they land?" The average woman wishes to be idealized and strongly objects to being understood. A disciple is a man who does not understand. He thinks that he is on, but he isn't. A woman may be a mystery to a man and to herself, but never to another woman. People who take pains never to do any more than they are paid for never get paid for any more than they do. If you have a wife and love her, tell her so—tell her half a dozen times a day. This was said by a bachelor. Some writers are famous for the books they have written; others for the books they ought to have written. There is a subtle sympathy produced by marked passages. Put faint pencil marks, then lend the volume, and you will know your fate. It may be that there is a bigger bit of political clap-trap than the statement that all men are born free and equal, but I cannot just recall it at the moment. "My son," said the philosopher, on his death-bed, "My son, two things you should never do. First, do not endeavor to pry into the future, for if you will only wait you shall know all. And, second, do not chase after women, for if you do not they will chase after you. Farewell." Relieved of the presence of that social pacemaker, the chaperon, the disciples of Plato are wont to take long walks, and further on, they spend whole days in the country—The Critic. NEW-FOUND PHILOSOPHY. Some people cannot see a joke even after they cut their eyeteeth. He is a wise man who takes some other's umbrella, though it be not raining. He who would rid himself of relatives needs only to fall from prosperity to poverty. A collar button is a small thing and yet there are those who charge it with being the root of all evil. The man who holds his tongue gets credit for being brainy, while he may merely be deaf and dumb. One can never tell how much brains a man has by the size of his hat; the man's head may be swollen. If our ambitions panned out according to our hopes, there would be no small potatoes in this world. A man who has little money is justified in saying that happiness does not consist in having wealth. If you talk back to a woman she will tell you you are no gentleman; if you remain silent she will call you a coward. Many a man who is a Chesterfield in the presence of another's wife, is a rude boor to his own wife behind his own doors. PHILOSOPHIC MAUNDERINGS The best way to win on a horse race is to forget to take any money to the poolroom with you. Work is a great thing to keep man's mind off his troubles, unless work happens to be his trouble. The chimp-y sweep, anyway, is always ready to admit that he is just as black as he is sooted. Atlas may have held the world in his shoulders, but Mr. Morgan wasn't standing on the world then. No matter what else may clamor for recognition, it's always safe to bank on uncertainty as a sure thing. The general who hesitates long at the possibility of losing a battle will not realize his one hope of winning. It isn't really necessary or quite conventional for the ex-convict to engrave his number on his visiting cards. A phrenologist would have a hard time to determine the character of the average prize fighter by the bumps on his head. Not once in a lifetime does man get out of range of the possible calamity.—Baltimore News. MISTAKES OF LIFE. To take off heavy underclothing because you become overheated. are not in a lie condition to do so. To conclude that the smallest room in the house is large enough to sleep in. To imagine that if a little work or exercise is good, violent or prolonged exercise is better. To go to bed late at night and rise at daybreak, and imagine that every hour taken from sleep is an hour gained. To give unnecessary time to a certain established routine of housekeeping when it could be more profitably spent in rest or recreation. To eat as if you had only a minute in which to finish the meal and to eat without an appetite, or to continue after it has been satisfied to gratify the taste.

Woman's idea of worldly wisdom is to know the fallings of her neighbors. There is nothing original about Wall street, which is noted for its quotations. The absent may be at fault, but those present are always supplied with excuses. If silence is golden the woman who is deaf and dumb must be twenty-four carets fine. Some men seem to think that the milk of human kindness flows only from bottles. The man who makes the best of everything should have no trouble in disposing of his wares. When a man orders spring lamb in a cheap restaurant he begins to realize how tough it is to die young. The patience of the average man doesn't get a chance to rest until after he has acquired a monument. It sometimes happens that a domestic explosion is the result of a lot of theories getting into a man's head. Before being taught how to shoot it might be well for the young idea to learn how to know when it is loaded. A woman wants to see everything that goes on. That is probably the reason why she stands in front of a mirror while dressing—Chicago Daily News. SCRAPS. On March 23, 1,545 cases of smallpox were under treatment in London.

"If you leave these lying here," said the writer to a man of Birch Bay, pointing to a magnificent set of caribou antlers. "you'll lose them. These can be sold, you know." "An' who'd take them, sure?" said Jonathan. "Well, I might." "But that would be stealing," he exclaimed. "But you would never know that I was the thief."

One of the most decorated men in Europe is Count von Eulenberg, master of the German emperor's household. He is a great favorite with his sovereign, who has conferred on him no fewer than sixty-three decorations. The youngest peeress at the coronation will be Baroness Clifton of Leighton Bronswold, who is two and a half years old. Her diminutive robes, which will be exact representations of those prescribed for peeresses attending the coronation, have already been ordered. It is not generally known that Lord Kitchener, once seriously contemplated going on the stage. It was while he was a lieutenant in the royal engineers. Not taking very quickly to the army, he consulted the late George Honey, the actor. That gentleman dropped him a note of kindly advice, in which he said: "Stick to the army, Mr. Kitchener; it is a far better shop than the boards. You will be sure to make your mark." The khekidiv had never seen snow in her life and remained this winter in Constantinople to see it. The winter has been mild, and she was growing disappointed, when one day a heavy fall came. She at once ordered out her carriage and drive through her park to have a good look. When she got home she sent out for large trays of snow, with which she and her ladies made snow balls and pelted the little black slaves. Florizel von Reuter, a lad of nine, has been for the past two years a striking figure in Geneva, for his wonderful talents have attracted the attention of all Switzerland. He is called "the little Mozart" and the "second Paganini." The Conservatoire of Geneva, where for some time he was a pupil, granted him a diploma as virtuoso last June. At the age of three a baby violin was put into his hands, and at four he began the serious study of the violin. PASSING FANCIES. It takes the editor to make a long story short. The pickpocket keeps in close touch with the public. The man who is long on wheat may be short on dough. Charity sometimes begins at home, but frequently nowhere. When one borrows trouble the interest is usually pretty heavy. Few persons are as easily fooled by others as they are by themselves. The man who goes all the gaits will-become unhunged after a while. The man who is ashamed of his religion hasn't much to be ashamed of. Artists and poets frequently get their high ideals by living up close to the roof. The man who is in the middle of a bad fix is said to be on the ragged edge. It is easy to see through the man who is fond of making a spectacle of himself. While the under dog usually has the sympathy of the crowd, the one on top gets the gate receipts. People like jolliness, but not being jollied—New York Sun. POOR BICHARD'S ALMANAC Dr. Franklin himself in one of the last numbers of his almanac gathered together all the best sayings of Poor Richard, which for twenty-five years had amused and edified the country. These sayings are in constant use at this day. For example: "Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise." "Drive thy business; let it not drive thee." "Help hands, for I have no lands." "No gains without pains." "Constant dropping wears away stones." Three removes are as bad as a fire. "He that by the plow would thrive must either hold or drive." "A fat kitchen makes a lean will." "Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other." It was such homely maxims as these, inserted in all the little gaps of the almanac, that made it so popular. Franklin said he sometimes sold 10,000 copies in a year, a wonderful sale for that day. The first number of Poor Richard's Almanac appeared in 1782. CURRENT WISDOM. One touch of humor makes the whole world grin. An inch of performance is worth a yard of promise. When a lazy man stops to think he is seldom able to start again. The trouble with a great many actors is that they are only imitation actors. Some individuals are so persistent in trying to do their best that they even do their best friends THOUGHTS FOR EVERY DAY. Home keeping hearts are happiest.—Longtellow. The woman with tact is the salvation of problematic situations. You'll be glad if you cultivate her acquaintance. Let him scatter his flowers as he goes along, since he will never go over the same road again.—Orison Switt Marden. BUBBLES A train hand—the dressmaker. Running in debt—the instalment watch. An idle jest—the one the humorist can't sell. In the waitz some people are sure to get all turned around. A child who is "a bad egg" cannot easily be whipped into shape. Even people who are wrapped up in themselves may get "undone." SOCIETY DIRECTION: ST. PAUL. MOST WORSHIPFUL GRAND LODGE OF MINNESOTA, A. P. AND A. M. JOHN N.
