The Appeal

THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, without bias. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. Recruits in the Navy. Oh, it is a very easy thing to get into the navy, providing you have a good constitution, hard muscles and average character. However, if one has any thinking to do, you should do it all before he goes into the recruiting officer's office and signs his name in any of the bark booklets. The number that there Uncle Daniel does all the thinking is absolutely, my patriotic friend, before apply at a naval rendezvous—that is, when you dig in the ground, work at the force, carry brick and mortar or idle at home on the farm—but when you have a biomatic old gentleman starts your pay at a few cents a day, will feed and house you and will do all your pondering for Among the sturdy young men who came to enlist in the navy one morning, was a man with a bright eyed, happy bright-eyed, short but well-built man of twenty-three years. There were several applicants for enlistment in the offices when Joe arrived. He was told to come to the office and call Job. He did not come up to the physical requirements of the service, and with a curt, "You're not wanted, sir," by the leutenant, each man snatched his hat and went out and into the office. At length the leutenant approached Joe Atkinson. "What do you want to enlist for?" said the officer. "Be seaman; I've served some at sea." "Where were you born?" "In New York, but I've lived most of these years." "Can you prove it?" said the officer, while he looked the lad over and over. "Early enough," said the lieutenant, after a moment's deliberation, to adjoining department, where he stripped to the skin, was weighed, measured, thumped, made to lie down, room, name colors and a purgeon record every identifying mark and certify that he had been of almost perfect physical manhood that measures every last man that rides the sea in a man-of-war. The man then asked him rapidly a lot of questions to test his knowledge of primary things aboard ship. What's a cognitivum set? What's a question set? What's a question set? What's a question set? That bind where the salt spray flies and then he picked up a marlin spike and silenced two cable ends with a mastery that bind up his account of his sea experience. A clerk came in from another room with a bundle of papers. They were the enlisted men, the only one applied for admission to the navy that morning. Joe Budd's was among them. The lieutenant called out, "All hands come on the bench went meekly forward, hat in hand. In a monotone the clerk performed the details of articles of agreement between the United States and the enlisted man in the naval service. Each man listened as seriously as he could. The officer finally finished, the clerk said: "Joseb Budd will sign first. Put your name there." The lad signed laboriously. "Now sign here in this book, and also in this column." "I didn't get that quite on the line." says Budd, apologetically, as the job ended in the register so well of ruled columns. "That's all right, Budd. You belong to Uncle Sam now, and you've got a day's pay coming to you." says the clerk. "Be added to our naval force and so rapid, decline routine of acceptance and, rejecting the Seamen and coal passages throughout the day. Seamen and coal passages examined and accepted or rejected at the rendezvous, so the navy wants skilled laborers. The seamen, bakers, blacksmiths, etc., for the fighting machine of to-day is a big managed big shop machinery. And it wants engineers and firemen as well as seamen and an engineer is at the rendezvous to examine skilled laborers, and when they pass this and the rigid medical examination, the seamen are in the island for another examination by foremen and engineers there, for Uncle Sam to course the skilled labor enlisted is all for ships. The men in the navy yard shops the government steamer left for Mara Island at 4 p. m., and twenty men were here, some within an hour after passing an examination. At the wharf a middle-aged little woman and a chance to give the government Joe was triggered in his uniform on the receiving ship at the navy yard and the recruits in front of the drill sergeant. The next morning Joe was given a suit jumper, and trousers, two suits of white duck overalls, two suits of light-blue unisex one-zipped cap for common wear, and two suits of for shore wear, socks, shoes, a black silk necklite, white tape for lapping up the hem of a dress, a hammock for bagging dress wear, a hammock to sleep in two blankets, a mattress cover and a clothes bag. For three months Joseph Budd was thrilled three a day in a land and one day in a sea. His muscles, his dexterity with cutlery and firearm, it became edulous after a white, and the other recruits murmured, but the rest of the day he had similar complaints for years. The average man-o-war man regards smoke—the best smoke of the day. On American men-o-war there is an open lantern, called the "smoking lamp," and the smoke is directed to directions of the officer on the desk. The corporal of the marine guard lights and extinguishes this lamp, and the smoke is directed to the officer on the desk. The corporal of the marine lamp is allow the man-o-war man may smoke himself black in the face. The smoke is smeared on his first morning's smoke—for he has to crowd his breakfast, the smoke is himself and dressing up for quarters of himself and dressing up for quarters which is the first call of the day on a war ship, is sounded in the United States, blue jackets and marines don't put on their best uniforms for ordinary quarters, but they must look neat and stand their division officer's inspection. The chief petty officers attached to divisions, above and below, call the roll and report to the division officers, who in turn report to the executive officers, who in turn report to the commanding officer, who stands at the cabin door. In port there are always men report to the chief executive, who is the security breakers' these men (who suffer for it upon their return) are called. The man who is aboard the ship and misses quarters is halted to the stick by the chief master-at-arms, and the man who is aboard the ship is dose of "extra duty" for his remissness. The drills of the morning ordinarily last for an hour and a half, or until 10 o'clock, when the men are dismissed to induce in another smoke. After half an hour's smoke, the men put finishing touches to their cleaning work of the morning. "Knock off!" the men put finishing touches for dinner. About five minutes before this meal, the men begin to form the beer line. The chief mastered arms at the main table, for which the men pay the bumboatmen. At 1 o'clock "Turn to" goes again, and ward put in the heavy work of the day. The chief bo'smant always knows where to find work for the bluejackets, to be "broken out" and rested; always a magazine that needs overheating: away from the fire rooms, anchors to be repaired, ammunition boxes to be red, ship's sides to the scraper or scrubbed in, the scraper or the bo'smant of a modern man-o-war is never at a loss for ideas, and one of the men's his ability is that he must always be able to timers the number of the ship's company. At 4 o'clock the only remaining duty is the call to evening's quarters about sundown. The mess-gear for supper is always on the hands shift into the slowest clothes they possess in their dirty bags, and set up a sturdy studious go to the library, but the library is never overcrowded with men. There is always too much going on on the hands, and the only possible, except for serious men, the bluejackets and marines who possess the dirty bags and all bands amounts to the musicians play different tunes at one and the same time in close proximity to the musicians.

Etheric Wave Telegraphy SHORT history of wireless telegraphy is difficult to write. It is less difficult to write it as its introduction, due to the commercial factor. There are two stages in the history of any great commercial factor that is invented or invented on the basis of the person who inventor or discover labor patently against, disappointments, batting with or in competition in an effort to the other, where steps are taken in the world to show and prove the utility of his invention. I will confine myself, to the latter stage, to the introduction of wire-telegrams. I may truly say the introduction took place on June 3, 1858, when Lord Kelvin sent messages to my laboratory on the night of a rate of shifting a message. It was a memorable day. Lord Kelvin and Lord Tennyson, where I explained the working of my apparatus for sending messages by ethereal wave telegraphy. They were deservedly impressed with my matching messages to Friends, and upon paying a fee. He desired to demonstrate the immediate availability of my invention to commercial use. The messages Lean, Lord Kelvin's chief assistant in the physical laboratory of the University of Cambridge, to Lord Rayleigh and to Sir William Freece in London. Lord Kelvin has given his permission to reprint once more messages, that to Sir George Stokes: "Stokes, Lensfield Cottage, Cambridge, Dorset, commercially paid at Alum Bay for travel to Bournemouth and then by postal telegraph, 15d, to Cambridge-Kelvin." In telegraph, 15d, to Cambridge-Kelvin." His nephew at Broom, and his message follows. "Sending you message by Marcell's telegraph, Alum Bay to Bournemouth, wire; very sorry not to hear you speak your Thackeray to-morrow." Tennyson. The first opportunity Y really had to prepare must and should be adopted by reason and should be adopted by responsibility was afforded by the Dublin Express report the Kingstown regatta. One of assignments fitted up a land station at Kingstown and should be mounted on board the steamer Flying Huntress. During the progress of the Flying Huntress followed the course of the yacht, messages were sent shoreward every ten or ten miles and hundred builttons were dispatched, and not a single message had to be repeated. The land station was in a room at the core of the residence of the harbormaster, where he was kept in a high room on which was suspended a wire arrangement corresponded to that attached to the mast of the steamer. While the lightship the final preparations were made for receiving and transmitting messages, the lightship the final preparations were made for receiving and transmitting messages, the instruments are sensitive enough to send one simple one. The operator takes an ordinary electric bell, which he holds at some distance from the battery of the bell as a very tiny current, which is instantly received and sounded on the bell on the indicator. This is a very simple exhibition of wireless telegraphy. Both all was in readiness, and the first message was received The tape merged with the familiar dots and dashes beautifully printed, ready to be sent to the reporter. As fast as the messages were received the phone to the office of the newspaper were carried out with precision, and in a perfectly matter-of-fact manner. Four years after my first experiments in Italy and after my apparatus had been in existence on Christmas eve, 1888, communication between the East Goodwin light-house and the South Foreland Lightship. The apparatus had not long been installed before its value was shown most conclusively. She was run down at 4 o'clock in the morning of March 3, 1889, by the steamer Daphne. She was run down at 4 o'clock in the morning of March 3, 1889, by the steamer Daphne. The wireless telegraphy operator hurriedly called up South Foreland light-house and the lightship and been into life and was sent out at once and the lightship was saved. Since then several other ships has been obtained by means of wireless telegraphy, the operators telegraphing has been obtained by means of wireless telegraphy, the operators telegraphing installation between the East Goodwin lightship and the South Foreland light-house awakened great interest, and the ships which were used to, as the system which was used to, In 1899 the New York Herald gave me an opportunity to demonstrate my app ability to arrange with me to report the internals between Columbia and Shamrock. The suspended wires were about one hundred miles, and the distances to which the messages were sent varied trim five to twenty miles. The instruments were located in, the chart sent at intervals of not more than fifteen minutes. In every case in spite of storm conditions I sent were accurate and such in advance the other means of transmitting the news. Having demonstrated to the world the serviceability of my system for commer- tation Britain and the United States of Great Britain and the United Kingdom examinations and subjected wireless telegraphy to tests. The results are well known. The British government has been involved in the Indian war and for the fleet; and the United States navy commission recommends that the system be given a trial by the navy. The British government were most interested. Inspection was made at the Highlands Lighthouse of Navesk and instruments were placed on the coast of Newfoundland. The commission reported: "We fully submit the following findings as the result of our investigation of the Mar- tern telegraphy. It is well adapted for use." $2.40 PER YEAR. ing under conditions of rain, fog, darkness, and motion of speed. Wind, rain, wind, and motion of speed, weather do not affect the transmission through but dampness may reduce the range, rapidity and accuracy by impairing the instrument's ability to detect the instruments. Darkness has no effect. We have no data as to the effects of rolling and damping by impairing the vibration at a speed apparently greater than the effect on the instruments, and we believe the rolling of the system would be very little affected. The accuracy is good within the working ranges. Cipher and important signal characteristics are required if necessary, to ensure absolute accuracy." The commission's report concluded in these words: "The board recommended that the system be given a trial in the navy." Again, a most convincing proof of pre-capability was given on the afternoon of 14th November 1945, in which I was recruiting to England. I notified my company *M. London* that I communicate with our stations at Albury and that I will be coming steamer. Because of the hurried orders to South Africa, these two hand instruments taken to London; but the day before my arrival Maj. Flood-Page and Mr. James Dixon with assistants, rigged up steamer nails from me. On the ship we waited for the morning of the 15th, and then enclosed to the mainmast and set up our instruments in the smoking room. It was from Southampton that we received the nails. Within another hour, still over forty miles away, we had received their; we were on the mainmast and welcomed! welcome home! Where are you? Then came war news, four hours before we were sent, we sent telegrams aboard the officers and crew of the emissuship of all those aboard led to publication of a paper, which was sold to the British navy, for work for the Seamen's fund, for which $150 was raised. The call from England was imperative. The call from the navy, and the work for the United States navy, was of the eye of my departure the navy commissioned great satisfaction over the results. shoulders to come to light through wireless sensors to come to light for me to speak of—now, I have absolute knowledge of the system." In view of the fact that it was the first time he being the first to send a paid message in MSN, setting to note that within four years he would be in another land in the usual course of business.

Near Hopkinsville, Ky., Sunday, Lloyd Nelson, a Caucasian planter, while crazed with drink secured an ax and brained Rebecca MacRay, an aged Afro-American woman, whom he met in the road. He then sprang on Joseph Landy, another Afro-American, and cut his throat, fatally wounding him. After terrorizing the citizens for two hours he was placed in jail to protect him from a mob of Afro-Americans that had been formed to lynch him. It it's right for Caucasians to lynch Afro-Americans who are charged with crime, why should not Afro-Americans lynch guilty Caucasians? We do not countenance lynching nor capital punishment, but we do believe that what is sauce for the goose should be sauce for the gander. After two weeks' investigation of the race troubles which have been in progress at Eldorado, the grand jury of Salene county, after examining nearly 200 witnesses, has failed to find any indictments and the forty men who are said to have formed a secret organization sworn to eliminate the Afro-American from the community, are still at large. As a result of the lack of support from the county authorities, the troops have established winter quarters. The en- tire trouble is said to be a ruse in order to make the county debatable ground, and the charge is openly laid to the Democrats that the scheme was made to drive the Afro-Americans out in order to elect the Democratic ticket. "It was the plain purpose of the fifteenth amendment to the constitution to prevent discrimination on account of race or color in regulating the elective franchise. Devices of state government, whether by statutory or constitutional enactment, to avoid the purpose of this amendment are revolutionary and should be condemned."—Republican National Platform 1900. "The Afro-American man can vote for whom he pleases. He can follow the dictates of his own conscience. That is why he has the franchise, to exercise it, and use it for his best advantage and the advantage of the country, which he has served so honorably with his sword."—President Roosevelt Recently in Washington an Afro-American named White, a grocers' helper, was locked in a cold storage room with a lot of chickens, and was almost frozen when he was released. Of course the newspaper reporters cracked a few chestnuts on the White-colored prase of the affair and then proceeded to tell White's "visions of chickens of gigantic size perched upon the foot-board of his bed," and a lot of tommy-rot of that character. Sensible Afro-Americans ought to refuse to buy a newspaper which endeavors to belittle and misrepresent them, in any such manner. "I know of the bravery and character of the Afro-American soldier. He saved my life at Santiago, and I have had occasion to say so in many articles and speeches. The Rough Riders were in a bad position when the Ninth and Tenth cavalry came rushing up the hill carrying everything before them. The Afro-American soldier has the faculty of coming to the front when he is needed most. In the Civil war he came 400,000 strong, and I believe he saved the Uuion."—President Roosevelt. "The Democratic Congressional Committee is standing squarely on the Kansas City platform. That is the only Democracy we know anything about, and it will be the only Democracy there is until another National convention shall be held."—From an authorized statement of Secretary Edwards of the National Democratic Congressional Committee.—Washington Star, July 21st, 1902. Prejudiced writers who are anxious for the United States government to forcibly annex Hayti continue to give to the public "pipe" stories of the voodooism and canibalism of the people of the black republic. These writings are pure fabrications, but they are well paid for. The Caucasian-American seems to delight in stories which depict the Negro character as vile and brutal. While it is true that every Southern state has passed infamous laws abridging the civil and political rights of its Afro-American citizens, it cannot be charged that the National government is persecuting the race and driving them from the country. There is therefore no analogy between the wrongs inflicted on Afro-Americans and the grievances of the Roumanian Jews. The Northern and Southern people can get together only when the Northern people give up the ideals for which they fought. The Southern people are still rebels. At the meeting of the Daughters of the Confederacy at Cincinnati an immense confederate flag occupied the most conspicuous place over the stage, high above the stars and stripes. Judge Jones of the United States Court at Montgomery, Ala., has refused the application of Jackson W. Giles for an injunction restraining the registrars from sending up their lists without the names of himself and other qualified Afro-American voters. An appeal was taken and certified direct to the Supreme Court of the United States. "For nearly a century we have struggled for commercial independence. We have built, advanced, improved during every period when we have had a tariff for protection, and our industries have gone to pieces every time, and always, when we have had a tariff for revenue only"—Leslie M. Shaw, Secretary of the Treasury. According to the Atlanta Constitution Afro-Americans of the South produce about 85 per cent of all the cot ton raised in that section and add nearly $400,000,000 to the wealth of the country every year, yet the Democrats say they are lazy and non-productive and would wrest from them their citizenship. The registration in Virginia has brought out the fact that the blood of some of the most exclusive aristocratic families flows in the veins of the Afro-Americans of that state and large numbers have registered under the "grandfather clause" which was designed to disfranchise them. IN THE FOREST. In the Foyer at Hamilton Forest, $1.50. New York: Doubleday, Page & Co. In the Forest" is a contribution to the literature of our country of positive value which contains the description of wood-life, wherein the stately deer, the Aristotle, Plato, Thomas Aquinas, Rousseau, Seymour, Emerson, Mr. Perez has, however, stitched a proposition about the significance of language we see for we know it equally, a which in our opinion, lays the foundation of a grammar of great simplicity and strength. The Appeal has no sympathy with the would-be leaders who advise the Afro-American to give up politics. The Afro-American in common with all good citizens should give attention to politics and see to it that good clean men are nominated and elected to office. An Afro-American physician of high character and skill, Dr. Samuel Patterson Stafford, has received the apointment of government physician at the Yakima Indian reservation, state of Washington. He is the first member of the race to be thus honored. The Union Veterans' Union has adopted resolutions indorsing General R. S. Dyrendorth and branding as scandalous the charges against him. This will please the Afro-American friends of the general who hold him in high esteem. A Southern judge has recently handed down a decision that if a man sells his wife he must insure delivery, or he is guilty of obtaining money under false pretenses. The New Orlean separate street car law was scheduled to go into effect October 14, but the company was so busy with the strike of employees that it was forgotten. It is well known that President Roosevelt is not in sympathy with the violent expulsion of Afro-Americans from the Republican party in the South. No victory was ever won without a battle.

The Negro population of the island of Monterrat in the West Indies which numbers about 10,000, to less than 100 whites, speaks "Irish in its purity," as are round and rich a brouge as ever, and the island is so vast that is that many years ago a British cruiser captured an African slave ship in the Spanish main and the slaves were landed on this island in charge of the master-at-arms, who happened to be an Irishman. He taught the blacks that they were so thoroughly that to this day their ancestors with stubborn pertinacity any English linguial invasion. AN OPEN LETTER Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 12, 1902: T. Thomas Fortune, Esq., Pres., National Afro-American Council, M. I. Washington, D.C., I have noticed that the Republican conventions of many of the states of the Union have met and passed resolutions endorsing our young and strenghtened our military. Roosevelt, for renomination in 1904; and this section of the great state of New York most heartily approve the action of said conventions. At the National Convention held in St. Paul last July we decided to meet next year in Louisville, Ky. If the two great parties of the country agree to hold the two years ahead, is it not time that we should be organizing for our national convention August next. It seems to me that you, as president, organization, might call the attention of the citizens of these United States to the clause in our constitution inviting Masons, Odd Fellows and all other organizations to affiliate with this national body to become part and parcel of the same. By so doing with the aid of other patriotic citizens we will be able to raise awareness of the need to work we have undertaken in the cause of Justice and Humanity. It is true we must have societies to care for the dead, and we must be equally true that we should have one organization to protect the best interest of the weak, ignorant and oppressed of our race, and to promote education based on the truth, in every section of this our country. The good people of the city of Rochester take much interest and pride in march, and will do their share toward lunch, and will cause its cause is just, and it first breathed life in this city, when the Douglas monument was to have been moved to the city's money to prosecute cases in the courts, and I believe the people will give it if concerted action is made and the justness of our cause made known. We also should have five hundred delegates at our convention next year. We can have them from organizations you will bring the matter before the people and urge their co-operation.

PEARLINE costs a trifle more—but it's ab- solutely safe. Pearline—Proved by Millions 671 In the Forest, By Maximilian Foster, $11.50. New York: Doubled, Page & Page In the Forest" is a contribution to the literature of our country of positive value. This volume contains stories of the wild coyote, the cunning coyote, the fierce and rugged canine coyote, the fierce and rugged not in the language of the wilds, virile and significant speech of nature and the language of nature. Mr. Foster has made a distinct departure from the ordinary stories of forest animals, has imitated law in accord with the imperious law of nature, and do not take. He plays upon your sympathies by eloquence, and in the story of "Lees," the coyote transported from his western habitation and amusement and excitement to men and amusement to his spontaneous to this poor beast, stricken times against hunger and trusting to his assistance to be torn to pieces by the murderous time he clubbed his tombstone, inevitable finish had to arrive, and when he hoped to be lured to the terror luck. "Sp, sp' was now his only hope." The climb to the hilltop was stiff, but it the hill came the horsemen, thundering the hill came the horsesmen, thundering the baying hounds, was fighting but weakly to the last. And when "the pack wonders when the brutality of man still wonders when the brutality of man still wonders when the recreation in the torture of beasts was so brutal, the outcast and pariah, obtains our sympathy nothing but aversion and exacerbation. "The glimpses of forest, mountain, roam in solitude, broken rarely by the native heath" are painted on the animals on their native language are aromatic with the wilds, and wield wthal. The moose has his story to tell, the Moose who "was a man and fixed with a fringe of bayonet prows were the terror and envy of the herds." This volume is profusely illustrated by the artists who work with an art striking and picturesque. ... The American Colored Wailer. By John B. Goins. The Hotel Monthly, Chil. This is a really useful little book by an experienced employee in a West Baden hotel. The book will be found useful by Caucasian as an employee in a West Baden hotel. There are a number of diagrams to show just how meals are to be served to the employee. There is sound. But there are two observations in the book which should give every waiter a think about. On page 2. Mr. Gohns observes in the eighteen year experience I have begun until the present time, that I beginning until the present time, that I sometimes in a hotel; and my dear sir, if you expect to climb the ladder of success, expect to work on it. And on page 15 may be asked or in any other public service, or in any other public service, are asked to join in a strike for better wages, refuse point blank. And I would plainly say you do so, stating your reason for doing so, keep out of strikes. The following list gives examples. a following list of suggestions is given in the instructions. "Don't put your mustache." Don't clean your finger nails in dining-room. Don't fall to report for duty without permission. Don't carry packages from hotel. Don't hang around office or bar. Don't play to get familiar with female help. Don't get in the steward's path. Don't double an order for one person. Don't refuse to accept your order in kitchen. "Don't complain about your work. "Don't strike. "Don't pass to the guest. "Don't play in the kitchen. "Don't debate with cooks. "Don't use tobacco or gum in dining rooms. Don't make disturbance because you are going to quit. EDUCATION AND THE LARGER LIFE Education and the Larger Life. By C. H. Henderson, pp. 738, 739 not. Boston. Copyright 1998. This is the title of a book by C. H. Henderson, which makes its appearance this year. The title frees on philosophy, and does not have a preface. It interesting volume before discovering order, elaborated in a clear, striking and concluding Education and ethics, theoretical and applied, are subjects which have been ex-posed to by students, and one does not expect to encounter in our time any new philosophers and publicists, and one does not expect to encounter in our time any new world-famed thinker, in the class wi- Is while to risk saving of a fe chance of lo save in a yea dose would t PEARLINE or solutely safe. Pearline—Prov Aristotle, Plato, Thomas Aquinas, Rousseau, Spencer or Emerson. Mr. Henderson has, however, stated a proposition about the significance of language, which so far as we know is entirely original, and which in our opinion, lays the foundation for a new grammar of great simplicity and strength. He says: "We may say that just as human consciousness is the one experienced reality, so the expression of this reality is to be found in language. Logically speaking we have only three classes of words, nouns, verbs and connectives. For convenience of treatment, the grammars name eight or nine." The author then says that the entire phenomena of the physical world may be resolved into three manifestations, "matter, motion and retention" and that since language is the result of experience with the material world, "nouns represent matter, verbs—motion, connectives—relation." The author's discussion of cause and effect, experimental life, the source of power, and the earners, subjects are treated in 'a clear and earnest manner. WHAT A WOMAN OUGHT TO KNOW. What a Young Woman Ought to Know. Pri. Mary Wood-Allen, M. D. 41. Mrs. Mary Wood-Allen, 1343 Real Estate Building, Philadelphia. No one who reads this admirable book mentions women and men have given their commendations and personal influence to the general attention of the public. To the general attention of the public, boys and men are written by Sylvan Stall, D. D., editor of the Lutheran Observer, and Mrs. Mary Wood-Alen, M. D., the National Superintendent of the Purity Temperance Union. These writings merit the national recognition said in their praise by the educationalists, the secular press throughout the country, and the physiology and laws of maturity, and the third wisely and audiously treats of the author brings to her task the training of women in the competencies of a mother, and the tact of a wifey. We should be glad if every young woman is book and profit by it. It will equip women to meet the dangers and difficulties experienced, make them intelligent and higher possibilities. It is a companion volume to Dr. Stall's book, named "Know," issued by the same company. GRADED PHYSICAL EXERCISES. GRADED Physical Training for Louise Colburn, $39 p. Over 150 illustrations. New York: Edgar S. Werper Publishing Co. It is surprising what a dearth of books on physical education in the largest publishers of school books is. This book will, therefore, supply a long needed want among public school teachers to help those persons desiring a practical system of physical exercise. The part of "manual physical exercises" is, as its name implies, exercises to be given in an ordinary group, to be given in divided into eight grades, one set for each grade, a natural outgrowth from the grouping one, the principle that only from the free development begin with Grade 2, continued not merely theoretical, but it is practical, years" use in public schools and acade- --- Dorothy South. By George Cary Eggleston, $150. Boston: Lothrop Publishing Co. Mr. Eggleston deals in this book with the Virginia's of the great plantations during the decade before the civil war, when he was a Virginian was deemed by them a misfortune, if not a sin of comision. They looked upon their countrymen from other states very much as the Greeks looked upon foreigners—they considered them "barbarians." Mr. Eggleston tells us: his sympathizes with the feeling, at least for the purpose of his now, while mingles a simple, most readable love story with a series of pictures of the life and the time and the place that are full of grace. The Negro characters in the book, they are all slaves, were well treated by their masters and well-called for, because they were very valuable property. Mr. Eggleston's hero is at first something of a prig, but he becomes human very rapidly after circumstances have led him into the current of the plot. There is no drama here, even though the war fills the closing shakers of the book, which is mainly a picture of the peaceful, cultured, conservative, old-fashioned south of the past. --- Roddy's Elementary Schools. Cloth, small quarto with maps. 50 cents. Roddy's Complete Geography. Cloth, quarto, 144 pp. with maps and illustrations. $1. By H. Austin Rood's. St. American Book Company, New York, Cincinnati. Chicago. Some teachers, especially those in country schools, have found the geographies too good to be used in the physical side of the subject. They have felt the need of a series which, while giving sufficient physiographic information for their purposes, should present the subject of geography in the simplest form. It is such a way as to make it easily handled by the instructor and as easily understood by the instructor. The number of full eagerly welcome the two books before us. Which answer these requirements admirably. THE CHANTCLER The Chantcleer. By Violette Hall. Bound in great cloth and was fasted cover, gift top, toughly edged. Drawings in color by W. Granville Smith.

It has originality, wit, and punishment. The imitation adapted to a romance of this kind. The work is with a purpose to both lovers of nature and nature's sake and also to all men and women who like a good romance. QUOTATIONS. Quotations. Compiled by Agnes H. Mor- ton, 50 cents. Philadelphia: Penn Publishing Co.

Many persons enjoy a comfortable sense of being sustained in their own words, and many possess the ability can be cited as having voiced the same sentiments. The book contains many choice lines. The Lothrop Publishing Company, of Boston, has just brought out a strong novel, *The Woman in the Window*, the story is full of incident and excitement, and a clever handling of an international young Englishman, who comes to America, to fortune and to the winning of a way to bring girl; and the deeper suggestion of the Americanizing of this British peer.

I've wandered today in the wildwood, The leaves so brown and red Are falling, softly falling, From the branches overhead. Oft when a girl I have wandered here, Familiar are the scenes. I have stood just here at the dear old tryst— How like a dream it seems. I am sitting beneath the same old tree, On the same old rustic seat Entranced by the music of whispering leaves That are falling about my feet. Autumn leaves, beautiful Autumn leaves, Whirling to and fro— I feel your soft kiss on my cheek as you fall, I hear your whisperings low. But, ah, there is a sadness In your low sweet voice to-day. As you bid farewell to the dear old trees And whispering whirl away. Lottie Patterson. POLITICAL POINTERS. The Lincoln club will have a rally Oct. 20. M. W.

Who was the first county officer to give an Afro-American an appointment in his office? Ans. M. J. Bell, then register of deeds, now Republican candidate for county treasurer. Don't fall to vote for him. Eugene Hay and James A.

His eight years' service as Judge of the municipal court made him so many friends that almost everybody knows him. That he will be one of the successful can- W. H. H. Republican Candidate for Auditor Ramsey County. didates at the election goes without saying. The following Republican candidates are as good as elected, having no opposition: Senators A. R. McGill and W. W. Dunn, Representative Ambrose Tighe, County Commissioner James Powers. In the First and Second wards J. E. Gregory and Walter T. Lemon are the nominees for the two positions of the legislature, and the Democrats have only one candidate, Berndt Olson, so one of the Republicans is sure to be elected and probably both. The Third and Fourth Ward Republicans held a fine meeting at Republican headquarters No. 30 East Fourth street, Wednesday night, that was a corker. Judge Johnson presided with grace and dignity that was commented upon on all sides. There was a large and enthusiastic crowd present. Congressman F. C. Stevens made a fine speech as did E. G.

They do not expect to defeat Gov. Van Sant themselves, but do hope the Republicans do it by not voting. How easy this can be is seen even for Ten Repulican voters in recent years in the state to stay at home or let business or pleasure prevent their voting is a small average. It is only twelve per cent of Pres. McKinley's vote, and yet as there are 2,324 voting precincts in the state it means 23,240 votes taken from Gov. Van Sant. That, of course, and if you want to see Gov. Van Sant re-elected vote for him. District Court.

He asks a re-election upon his merits, and refers the voter to any attorney as to M. B. the method and manner of his conduct of the office. He argues that the position is a most responsible one, and that the best guarantee a man can give of the future is his record for the past. He certainly has made an enviable record, and if re-elected, as he assuredly will be, there is a certainty the office will be as well administered in the future as in the past. M. J. BELL. Republican Candidate for County Treasurer. Mr. Bell is one of our best known men, he having been in public life for many years. He was Register of Deeds some years ago and was the first of the county officers to appoint an Atro- American in his office. He served as a member of the council and is well posted in county and municipal af- forts. He is a gentleman, gentleman and will doubtless make a good treasurer. Vote for him. HARVEY E. HALL. Republican Candidate for County Attorney. Harvey E. Hall, Republican candidate for county attorney, is one of the best equipped men for that responsible job. Mr. Hall was city prosecutor for two years during city attorney Markham's first term, and performed the duties of BROOKLYN that office to the entire satisfaction of the public. He has had large ex- perience both in civil and judicial practice, and is widely and favorably known throughout Ramsey county. Mr. Hall is American in every sense; is forty-five years of age, and has resided in St. Paul for the past twenty years; is a loyal Republican who has always worked for the best interests of his party and its chosen candidates; he is esteemed and respected by all classes of citizens alike; and has never been before the people for their suffrages. In our judgment, Mr. Hall would make an ideal county attorney and we earnestly recommend him to the voters of Ramsey county. Republican Candidate for County Audition Mr. Krahmer's candidacy for this important office is being received with general satisfaction. In norm, reared and educated in Minnesota, he has been identified with St. Paul since the age of his infancy. He is a substantial tax payer, engaged in the real estate business, and this, together with his four years' experience as register of deeds, and earlier, as an assemblyman of this city, have familiarized him with real estate conditions and the administration of public affairs to an extent which has peculiarly fitted him for the WILLIAM H. Republican Candidate for Governor of Minnesota office he seeks. His administration of the registry office is recalled as a model of efficiency and of business method applied to public affairs. The side of public affairs joins joy among all classes promises well for his success at the polls. GREETINGS To the Woman's Federation at Albert Mrs. T. H. Lyles, president of the State Federation of Colored Women, received an invitation to attend the recent meeting at Albert Lea, but being unable to do so on account of a street car accident in which she was hurt, she sent the following: Madam President, and the Minnesota Women's Clubs in Convention Assembled in the City of Albert Lea, Minnesota, October 14 to 16, 1902, in Behalf of the Minnesota State Federation of Colored Women's Clubs, I send Greetings most Cordial. May your Sessions LOREN FLETCHER, Republican Candidate for Congress, Fifth District. bring Harmony and Inspiration to All Present. In these conventions where women of intelligence meet to receive instructions and exchange views and add to their world's wisdom, is certainly a benefit to each other. All club women should enter the field to work hand in hand with women generally, for humanity and humanity's interests. Not the Caucasians, the Russians, but the Chilies, Hawaiians, the Russians, Jews, and the oppressed of everywhere should be subjects for our consideration. Not the needs of the Colored Woman but all Women. The motto of our National Association of Colored Women is "Lifting as We Climb." We urge all clubs composing our State Federations the importance of joining the National Association of Colored Women, that we may build up a strong National body embracing every State that we may be able to stand forth as one great body wielding a power hitherto unknown in the annals of our race. If ever our association needed the support of our earnest women, it needs it today. Not because there is any evidence of decay or retrogression, for the association is stronger now than it ever was. But there was never a year when our women could accomplish more for its elevation than they can today. It is plainly in the duty of our women who are interested in the advancement of our race to support the only national organization which we have. No club can afford to miss the inspiration received from hearing what our women are accomplishing in various lines of work throughout the country. Our women can an can be fired with zeal at all nothing is so sure to enthuse her as the reports from some of our energetic and successful workers. In almost every one of the clubs of which the National Association is composed, and they are found from Michigan to Florida, from Massachusetts to California, any woman may find some line of action suited to individual taste. If charitable work is necessary, one should work in a professional work, all her resources in that direction may be exercised; if self culture is her ambition she can find all that is necessary to gratify her desire, literature, music, art. Because of the fortunate condition of the masses of our people much of our work is philanthropic. The kindergarten, sewing schools, and mothers' meetings command a large share of our attention, as we have a work block because as we climb. Respectfully submitted. Mgr. T. H.

SHEPHERD AGAIN TO THE FORE Possibly one of the greatest, most novel and beneficial inventions of recent date, is Shepherd's Photo-Signet Anti-septic Ring. (Patent applied for.) The ring is a large gold seal ring. On the face of the seal may be cut a seal, monogram or any device. This is an invisible hinged case, which is designed to be worn by any one desired. Under the picture is placed an anti-septic pad, fully charged, according to the standard formula of the hospitals of Europe and the United States, which sought some convenient form to stabilize money while passing through the hands of the public, and this patent of Shepherd's accomplishes that feat. only does this ring secure one from theft. The ring is made of money, but from all manner of contagious disease, and is a sure preventative of rheumatism. The ring will be sold by cavatissers, who will take care of the ring and obtain it at headquarters, room 316, Phoenix building, over Yerxa's乐园.
