Strange Romance of Queen Stella After Twenty Years' Separation Flats Lost Lover a Convit in Ohio Prison—The Noted Gyrzy kuler of the Gonzales. Now Visiting This Country in Interest of Her People and Who Has Been Taken Up by Society and Asked to Lecture before Colleges and Institutions, Has Revealed the Romance of Her Lives in a Manner Most Dramatic—In Convict Number 3003 in the Ohio Penitentiary, Serving a Long Term for Manisha suighter, She Has Found the Long Lost Lover of after Gillhood Days. Whom She Had Sought for Years and Supposed Dead—Is Now Working for His Pardon. A From the time of the Pharos, the Gonzales, these people knew the grypsis, Journeying father and thither in their wanderings through the wilderness, they knew about. Journeying father and thither in their wanderings through the wilderness, they knew about. Journeying father and thither in their wanderings that first inherited the earth, to Spain, it was here Queen Sela was born. And here she attained to a ruler of her people, the king of reigning female sovereigns. The girl unaea was cared for her education, which has fitted her to enter the innermost, social circles of her people. For some time she has been a bad of society. She finished her education, Queen Sela came to America in the hope of finding a spot adapt to her. She wore $2, prove that a grypsis to the Gonzales come here and colonize. She took up their home and at the same time follow their native arts and industries to take up their abode in close proximity to some large city, where like the troublesome of the Gonzales, their busy life, enlivening it still more with the gay and restive music of their harp The gryps must be free, but he must not be alone. She stella while an ardent lover of music has always followed the gryps's professional life, in the art of fingering the guitar, and the tambourine responds to her ready hand. In the hands of the haunted is the wonticle reading of the haunt. It is largely due to her skill that palmistry is now among cultivated people. Some months ago Queen Stella forsook the centers of fashionable Eastern society, and why to the Western cities and to us. All the time she lived in the fashionable whirl, no one ever knew that Queen Stella was happy. Her sunny nature kept her move the stormy waves of feeling that were surging in her heart. The tribe of the Gozzules permits no love of a dandeline nature. They are a people of the mountains, among the Gozzules must be among the sons and daughters of its own tribe. The dark-eyed sweetheart of this tribe the Gozzules permits no love of the secret which was wearing away her woman's heart. That she kept locked And no one would ever have found it out had she not gone to Columbus, Ohio, where recently she had made her home. Twenty years ago in her early Spanish home Pedro Gonzales became Queen Stella's accepted lover. His powers in the arena had made him famous. Six feet tall and as strong as a lion, his daily struggles with the fierce bulls seemed the natural outlet for his native temperament. No bullfight was complete unless the matchless young toreador participated in it. The dark-eyed young queen was proud of the strong, handsome young lover, whom she ardently admired. To Pedro, Queen Stella's word was law. Not because her rank made it so, but because she reigned supreme in his heart. But the young queen must be true to her people. Her own advantages made her conscious of the great obligation she was under to them. So she came to America to prepare a way for her tribe to follow. Pedro would soon follow, it was angry. come, but not until he saw them. and --- From Spain, no one knew we was prepared to start a war. The last word was whither. At last word reached Queen of the裔. That Pecan was the name of the young ruler of her tribe locked her love and grief in her heart and gave herself wholly to work for her people. Two-thirds of all the money she earned she sent to them, read the lines of fate in the hands of the fashionable assemblers, the two who were very so sunny of nature, so bright and laughing. Shortly after Queen Stella went to Columbus, the she con�ed a notion one did to visit the prisoners at the state penitentiary. Why she went she does not know, any more than she can explain why she should forsake a circle of fash and acquaintances the most fastidious might cultivate, and mingle with those who were new and strange. But she followed out an inward feeling. But she did not know that she was brave enough to do so. For there is no denying that it cost her an effort. It seemed to her the first day she was in the place of being a man who was a means of singularly free, while the life of the prisoner was most pitiful. Shut in everything that was of such great worth to her she might be with him. I腐了。She was very much so she might be a little brightness to some one. She stayed there for some time, laughing and talking with her boys, as she The very next day a note was sent her, it read: "If you are my Dolores, answer, Pedro used to call her. But no one else knew her by the name." So Queen Stella did not know her, and once, saying she did not know her, 5 writer, the next Sunny day, however, when she met Pedro, she told him to see Number 3003. The prisoner stepped forward, but before he could welcome her, Pedro knocked on his feet. One glance was enough. It showed her the lover she had lost—her They called him Gypsy Bill in the prison. For he defied all authority, and refused to be shorn of his long locks. He has a rebellious spirit that none could break, and his strength is enormous. He shot a man once, in self defense, so he claims, and for that he is wearing the gray prison garb. As soon as he could Pedro told her that he came to America in search of her, wandering from place to place. But he could get no trace of his adored Dolores. He had always a wonderful magnetism for horses. They followed readily at his merest word and he became a horse trainer. It was while engaged in his profession, that the encounter occurred that led to his crime. But there is a good chance for parole now. The emotion he displayed at the sight of his Dolores was the first sign of a softer nature the prison authorities had ever seen. President Dunn and the managers of the penitentiary as well as Warden Darby and Charlain Starr have interested themselves in Queen Stella's lover and aided her efforts in every way possible. Governor Nash also encouraged her to home. Parole once obtained the way Her firm conviction that the dark skies are not the only thing that Queen Sicilia's picture and the watch and the sword are gave Peders's cell there hangs an oil painting of Queen Stella, and a painting of her when he wakes, and looks at it he says, "Good morning; Dolores." THE HIRED BURGLAR "It's preposterous!" "Idiotic!" "Idiot!" "But it's a fact, nevertheless," added the first speaker. "They had been an epidemic of petty burglaries in the town of Benton during the late fall. The articles on the town had been an epidemic of usual food taken from barns and hen shear; but the constant fear of possible burglary had led the town to place the town into a state bordering upon pane. The unknown man was more during. He might invade their very houses, the object of his unwelcome attention?" The burglar, or burglar—whatever they least up to the present they had not ventured after the bigger game. Nevertheless the nervous more nervous and introduced the nervous more nervous and introduced the nervous more nervous after that they possessed nerve after all. The board of selection, three worthy reselling that election day would come in a few months, determined to take active down town's barns and hen roosts. The step which, after mature deliberation has taken, CANADIAN FORESTS RECIPROCITIES INDUSTRY IN THE SWEET BYE-AND-BYE. CANADIAN FORESTS RECIPROCITY INDUSTRY IN THE SWEET BYE-AND-BYE. FOR WINTER SUFFERS. Easily Digested Cheese Savories That Can Be Made So Tasty. Cooked cheese is particularly appetiz- Selectman Dorcas had raised a dissenting voice, accompanying it by a sarcastic allusion as to the sanity of his colleagues. Mr. Dorcas kept a general store. Among a host of other things, he sold revolvers and ammunition, the sale of which during the past two months had wonderfully increased; so that it is barely possible he was giving a thought or two to his own interests as well as to those of the town of Benton. "Mr. Chairman, as the burlar we are an so interested in catching, seems, from evidence that has laid before our eyes mine at any rate—to be well acquainted with the barns and hen roosts of the town, and appears, therefore, to be a resident, I move that we order all residents of the town—men, women and children—to prove where they were between the hours of 10 and 12 o'clock last Tuesday night, at which time, as we all know, occurred the last, or rather the latest, of these pestiferous burglaries." Almost out of breath, Mr. North had at least two wounds. He had jumped to his feet and cast a dangle of withering scorn upon his colleague. But he was not received with unanimous fervor. Voting, and the resolution was carried, was not received with unanimous fervor. It was not very large, but it was large enough to be considered an estimate of one estimable citizen who, for good and sufficient reasons, did not care to have his wife—knew where he had spent a certain amount of time and had been engaged in. Of course, those fortunate citizens who chanced to have very preposterous, idiotic or assassin in the very lawful jurisdiction on the test of their lawful authority. REC Deacon Thomas Snow, however, was not one of these; neither was his brother-in-law, John Snow. When Snow declared that the selectmen had acted in a preposterous manner his opinion was echoed, through the medium of argying epithets, by White and Bristow. "Can we," demanded Snow, emphasizing the pronoun, "afford—" "Dare" interrupted, where we were and what we did last Tuesday night? "The other grooms and White sald: that I should kiss say? "What, indeed!" "Let me think this thing out," salt Smith. Nobody objected, so Snow thought: "I don't believe such a monstrous order, caricature or rebellion will rebel." "If we were my wife," salt White. "If we 40, put in Bristow, our wives and others, for that very reason, will be more eager to then than to know than those idiots themselves." "Right," agreed his companions, soberly and laconically. "I have a plan by which we may be able to get out of this scrape," said Snow. "What is it?" "We must find the burglar. Once found, it will not be necessary to force us or anybody else to tell what would get us into no end of trouble." "It's a brilliant idea," commented Bril- tow, sarcastically. "How shall we catch that evasive gentleman?" "Hanged if I know! If we can't find him—here's an amendment to the plan— we must get a substitute for him. Money will enable us to do so." "There's more sense in that," said Bris- tow. "I think. There must be at least one man in town—perhaps two—who, for a couple of hundred years, himself a thief and serve a few months in prison if convicted." "Burglary, especially in the night time," said a serious, offense, reminded White. "Still, the fellow never actually broke in anywhere." "We can't live a good smart lawyer to defend him and perhaps let him off." suggested Snow. "All we want is to prevent inquiry as to our whereabouts last Tuesday night." "A lawyer," grumbled White; "more money!" "Else more trouble," observed Bristow. "Here comes a tramp," cried Snow, suddenly, "the very chap we want. A warm cell ought to be a welcome change from the cold barns and colder hay stacks that he has probably had to put up with these cold nights. Let's sound him." The trio were standing in the public square. The stranger drew near, a ragged, hungry-looking fellow. "Hello, sir, man!" baffled Snow. "Don't def to the lock-up. bolds without eyes in amaze- re to repeat his go that way—it Tend come here. How won a couple of hundre working?" "We's doin' ?" I ask the stranger. "There's been a builr doing no end of our friends. We don't know of our friends is wrongly suspected. Now, we want you to act as a substitute for the good name of our friend. If you will consent to go to the police station, give yourself up and admit you are the thief, and give us $20. Good pay; what do you say?" The gentleman of the road smiled, pon- tantly, and said, "Make it tree-hundreds; den! I'm a year or two, yer see." He went on, "we want to see you published too secrely. We'll hire a person from getting a new sentence; that what we'll may him for. You may get off your way." "Lawyer be blowed. Say 'tree hundred or shut in,' the berries, nodded assent. "All right," said Snow. "three hundred it is. Remember, you are the burglar in the past two months. You needn't admit that, of course. You are simply the felon last Tuesday—remember the date—and took a couple of his hens." "I won't forget it. Now wot about de bribe?" "We'll say you the money just as soon as we can." I said. "An' have de jail blocks take de boodie away from me? Nil?" "Well, tell what. Will a check, post dated do?" "Naw. I want cash in advance. I'll send do money by mail but aeller killer in the mail. I want to take my medicine. You gents can keep yer eyes on me on my air time if air is confessed to bein' the thief dey want. confessed to bein' the thief dey want. So it came to pass that Luke Varden, after receiving and disposing of the $200 he gave to the police station and confessed that he was the much-wanted thief. He had entered Tuesday night and skipped some previous gentleman's hems. He was sent to a higher court. In court time he was on mast on In the last few months, more than one person in Benton breathed more freely. One day, early in the following summer, Deacon Snow, who had quite forgotten all about the burglar's substitute, received a letter which caused him first to swear, then to laugh. He gave the missive to his brother-in-law. White read: "Mr. Thomas Snow and Friends: Gents, I desire to thank you again for the $300 you kindly gave me eight months ago for acting as substitute for the Benton burglar. It may surprise you to hear that I was really the burglar you gents wanted to catch. When I met you I was on my way to the police station to give myself up, as I had got tired of my line of business and wanted to be sent away for the winter. The 300 piunks will work in handy for my summer vacation. Yours, Luke Varden." "So the hundred dollars I won at poker at Fetter's roadhouse that Tuesday night."

Only One Great Railway Which Is Practically Free of the Pest-Why Western Lines Cannot Escape the Evil-The Eminence of Galesburg —American and English Methods Compared. Although tomes have been written and city councils and traffic managers have been excited on the trump question, yet with one exception the railroads of the United States continue to be harassed by traveling bands of tramps, hoobes, robberies and other crimes that enjoy happy railroad which holds the distinction of entire immunity from the distinctions of hoobes is the New York Central, the New York Central trains, the New York Central trains, No; the millennium has not yet come, but this corporation by the unceasing vigilance of its private detective force has made "busting trumps in going East and West between Chicago and Boston or New York choose the Baltimore or Ohio, or the Wabash, or perhaps the Michigan Central, traversing thus a long distance out of their way to avoid the "N York Central, which is" the hardest terribest beat in the world," as I have Now, if the New York Central is practically free from huboes, how is it brought about, and what is this immunity worth? Years ago, when the railroad tramp industry was in its infancy, the managers of this road recognized the expense and loss they were suffering at the hands of "free passengers," and at once took steps to limit greatly if not to stop entirely such losses. Already gangs of systematic robbers were operating on the railroad trains, which have since caused millions of dollars of annual loss to the railroad companies. These gangs operated then much as they do now; a number of tramps would thoughtlessly allow themselves to be shut in a freight car containing merchandise or other valuable goods, and when the train had started they, in retaliation for their confinement, would cut open a hole in the car door, unfasten the latch, and under cover of darkness would roll off boxes of merchandise from the train at a certain spot agreed on with confederates, who would gather up the plunder and disappear, while the tramps aboard the train would get off when it slowed down at the next station and rejoin their "pals." The booty would be divided and sold or used. Or another method is to 'bore a hole in the wall' and fill sacks with wheat or oats, always at night. Usually they plug up the hole, and they omit this trifling informality, and then a string of grain miles in length is inserted. A few of the main jobs are are a few of the most difficult officials set systematically to work. They fired hundreds of private detectives to investigate. Some of the detectives traveled as tramps and betrayed the gangs of the town, and they made it so warm for the tramps about the town they broke up, and the result was that the New York Central became, as it is now, a system of tramps in spite of its thousands of miles of tracks, and the many millions of tons of grain it is practically nothing for goods stolen or damaged by railway brigands. This system or Boston or Albany, the new acquisition of the New York Central, most people who know nothing of tramps or railroads think it an easy matter to get freight, but under cover of darkness this is practically impossible. unless a detective be in every freight yard, even in little towns, to assail all vagrans. Two other great Eastern roads, the Erie and Cemsa, are the same. Central's example, and in the spring of 1901 a new police force was set at work on these lines; a police station, a central, though embracing a number of points. In every freight yard of any imminent threat, the police were placed, in smaller towns one was stationed, all of them to operate at night, when the police were in contact with each other, sensing descriptions of suspicious characters ahead to detectives father down the line. When a detective came away from a detective or beat him off, as often happen, and then leave town to investigate, the police graphs ahead to the next town and the hooves are sure of a warm reception at the hands of the police when they reach. The results of this system of police training are shown in Table 1. Eric and Pennsylvania railroads, for the first time, are in three of four main localities worked by the 'gang' rather to the benefit of the police. The arrest decisions for the whole system. Hence the gain on the railroad is enormous, and the Etsa trains are easily placed on the "hard list" by the numbers of luckless tramps who have you next naturally ask. Why don't all railroads rid themselves of tramps? The answer is very simple: the amount of track compared with the amount of traffic they handle. For instance the Western roads have the amount of miles of track to correspond with the same amount of traffic on the amount of miles of track to correspond with the same amount of traffic on the board trams away from towns on heavy grades, the speed is reduced, and the amount of miles of track to correspond with the same amount of traffic on the board trams away from towns on heavy grades. They even operate in the daytime. They gather for such a nervy cast. Besides, railroad men themselves in the West of France let them drive on all Eastern roads; the rules are much more strict. Besides, railroad men of two towns in the West where a strict police surveillance is kept around the switch yards, and in consequence the hobbes are more strict. One of these is Galesburg; ill, a place known all over American hobobism as the hardest town to get A private detective hired by the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad, on which Galesburg is situated, makes his headquarters there and naturally he keeps his eyes open for tramps so near home. A number of years ago he hired a colorfiyard detective for night work. This detective proved a bad enemy to hoboes, and one stormy night he was shot to death by a gang of tramps he was driving from the yards. The colored detective's brother volunteered to take his place, and, with sworn hatred of all vagrants, he makes it almost utterly impossible for one of them to enter or leave the town on any train. This colored night watchman wields his club freely and effectively, and is the terror of the freight yards. Last spring he was shot and badly wounded, but returned to his post after six weeks in the hospital. Slowly but surely other towns and railroads will follow Galesburg's example, and increase the policing of roads and property, thus solving the "tramp problem." Another phase of the question which we will discuss is the punishment of tramps is the willingness of the taxpayers to furnish them with no more serious a crime than committed no more serious a crime than committed on the company's "right of way." When an ordinary constable makes a raid on a company, and neither magistrates nor police know what to do with them, the ex-convict no serious charge can be preferred, and no serious charge can be preferred breaking and entering cars. The result is that the magistrates impose a fine of one hundred dollars will leave town immediately, which will be by hiding round till night, and so the convict will be sometimes when a few tramps are arrested loose again the next day, but by this the railroad has gained nothing. The next day, on the same line, it is a day later in svilvania and the Central are striving. They do not arrest common tramps who commit no more serious a crime, it impossible for them to come near Another serious problem connected with hoboes which railroads have to face often when a gramp of trams is broken up by members will sweep the tracks, or a switch, or almost still, by simply hanging a common heavy hoose on the shoe caught in the fish plank that binds the rail ends together. A sliding down the rail before the train, and at the wheel or the engine is usually a wreck. Many puzzling railroad wrecks are this directly accountable to rescue wreckers with its possible attendant loss of time and the danger from tramps entering railroad for a considerable length of time, and the danger from tramps It is often argued that the United States ought to adopt England's method of allowing nothing living on any railroad right of way, but when we come to consider the question of who, if it is impossible under present conditions, in the first place, to be a "famous" millionaire of railroads in the United States above the England precludes this at once, the railroads are run over or under the wagon roads by grade crossings, and are shut in completely by first a wide ditch, then a high-barred fence, and last a dense hedge, all of which are of course expensive and can only be afforded more expense and can only be afforded more expense. In a densely settled country, and even in a densely settled country of miles, of track. The British method, of course, protects a little from and animals from injury, and is very seldom a damage suit for a great many of the English railroads. It is very seldom a damage suit for a great many of the English railroads. It is brought against a British tradition, and less often is it allowed, for it is ar-gued that the person or animal could have no possible right on the track and for so no just claim could be brought forward. In America, on the other hand, railroads and wagon roads are often along side by side, and are often shared, thus on the same level, when unfenced, thus offering an area of an even method of approach. Pilferers, a great deal more rare is to prevent accident in England than here; while in America, once in a few years, they are often in a jolly, reckless familiarity with their railroads, altogether foreign to their respect, and, in fact, the result of their patrimony. In the advantage, for there are no traps on the railroads, and consequently no stealing from moving them. Boston Transcript. HAVE YOU READ THE ARROW? ADAMS BROS.

The St. Paul Fioneer Press of Wednesday has a long editorial denouncing the speech made by J.H. Hayes or the executive committee of the Afro-American Council in Washington Monday. The admission is, however, made: "That the Afro-American of the South should feel exasperated beyond endurance at the denial of the rights granted him by the constitution, is easily understood, but empty talk of fire and sword as a remedy is a poor way to mend matters." We were anything else but talk, and an actual rising of the Afro-American in behalf of his rights should occur, the failure of the Southern states to suppress turbulence would mean that the federal government with the cordial support of every lover of law and order throughout the North would own troops to restore tranquility." Now we do not advise any such harsh measures as suggested by Mr. Hayes, yet it would not be surprising if something of the sort was attempted to prevent the first statement of the Pioneer Press quoted above. John Brown, though a white man, became so exasperated at the outrages heaped upon his black brethren that he tried to kill them, his life, in an honest effort to help them; and if Afro-Americans, inspired by the infunction of the white man who said, "He who would be free, must, himself, strike the 'first blow,' should launch their forlorn hope some more," he replied. As to the second admission of the Pioneer Press quoted, we would like to know why this government cannot interfere to prevent the outrages that brought forth the speech of Hayes, if he would break if the long suffering Afro-Americans following the lead of the lawwynchers, took the law in their own hands? The Pioneer Press says: "There is one way and only one way for the Southern Afro-American to gain his ear and that is along the slow and steady path of education in Washington and other leaders" etc. etc. For forty years, many of us have been traversing these paths, many traveled those paths before Booker Washington was born, but what effect that had on our lives? Paul, the condition of the Afro-American is fifty per cent worse than it was twenty years ago. Why the Commercial Club of St. Paul has passed a law prohibiting the entertainment of an Afro-American in its club rooms. And that club room is good in a progressive way in the city. Under such a law, how would it be possible for an Afro-American business man to derive the benefits that are supposed to accrue to the members? For, if a white member cannot even entertain a black man, it certainly would be utterly impossible for a black man to become a member of the prejudiced organization. We do not concur in the anarchistic sentiments of Hayes, perhaps, but we assert that if his utterances become realities, we would be doing no more than white men would do or would have long ago under much less caution. We are citizens of this country by right of birth and we want all the rights and privileges all other citizens enjoy. This connection it might be well to add that all the white people of St. Paul do not agree with the Pioneer Press on this subject as may be seen from an article which appeared in the issue of that paper on Jan. 30. It may be found in another column. The great hullabaloo which was raised by a few Southern congressmen because they found a few Afro-Americans present at the reception given by President Roosevelt, week after week. The unlungs for and is based the narrowness of these gentlemen. (?) The truth is they were not so very much shocked as they pretended to be; they were only endeavoring to create more prejudice against President, and to present the now-honored President Roosevelt who has now been to be a fair-minded man.) President Roosevelt in inviting the Afro-Americans who were present only extended a courtesy due to the offices without taking into consideration the color on charge of the flat. It is evidenced most, probably by the presence of these congressmen who insulted their host, the President of the United States, as they did, for had the president desired to only invite gentlemen to this function they would not have been committed to all. It is, at least, the only because they were congressmen. President Roosevelt invited the Register of the United States Treasury, the man whose signature must be attached to every paper obligation of this government to make it, he has invited the Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia, etc., because of the offices they held, not because they were Afro-Americans, nor did he fall or refuse to invite them on the account. They are here and they are indicated by the wording and representation of the citizens which constitutes about one-eighth of the population of the United States. Why should they not be invited? President Roosevelt, the justice-loving, bravely, hearty and undermined by his is, and extended a courtesy which he knew was due. Long live President Roosevelt. --- While the Southernners are kicking because of the appointment of W. H. Lewis as Assistant United States Prosecuting Attorney in Boston as they feel that the residence of (?) their souls they don't need to be worried about the Bostonians, as they know how to take care of themselves and are not so averse to coming in contact with Aro-Americans. The statistic of marriages show the statistics of between thirty and forty white women in that city marry Aro-Americans every year. There were thirty-one cases of mixed marriages of this sort in 1901, and for 1902, while the record was for 1903, there were probably thirty-five recorded. Such marriages go on with such frequency among working people as to evoke no comment from their neighbors or the officials or clergymen who perform the ceremony. In five years thirty was the average. In 1907, thirty was the average. The people of Boston can stand Mr. Lewis in his position "dead easy." --- Minister Powell, our Haytan minister, seems to be proving himself the equal, if not the superior of some of his white colleagues in getting the claims from this country settled. Only the governor of Arkansas claimed for an American lady and now the latest from Santo Domingo is that the proposition presented by Minister Powell to refer the disputed claims of the Santo Domingo Improvement company of New York to international arbitration has finally been accepted by the Dominican government. The claims of the improvement company, which alleges that it was unjustly deprived of certain valuable franchises by the Dominican government have been in dispute for several years and involve a $5,000,000 indemnity. If Major House an old confederate soldier, now commanding a squadron in the Arkansas State Guard, knew how ridiculous his offer appears to people at a distance it is likely that he would not have sent the following letter: "Paola, Ark. Jan. 10, 1903, 'Governor Jefferson Davis, Commanding the Arkansas State Guard.'" "Subject to your order, I tender my services with 150 cavalry to the good people of Indians, for their protection against negro domination. I am, "Yours to command," "M. C. HOUSE." But "Majah" house lives in the wilds of Arkansas, far from civilization. A recent special dispatch from Columbia, S. C., giving an account of the assassination of Editor Gonales by the brutal Lieutenant Governor Tillman, contained this paragraph: Few white men are ever hung in South Carolina for murder. The criminal system for drawing judges and the informant is the most court, give the murderer the best of it, however bloody his crime might have been. This gives a better idea of the state of affairs down there than a two column article could possibly give. THE APPRIL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER.

Van Tyne, make a volume of very interesting reading. Mr. Van Tynne collected most of these letters from documents in the possession of the New Hampshire Historical Society. Their turn much light from the hitherto obscure incidents in the career of the man whom Theodore Parker says was the greatest figure that had appeared upon the earth since the days of Chariemange. The letters embrace a wide variety of subjects and cover almost the entire period of his career as a public man—decribing his family relations, his personal finances, his intellectual interests, his political interests and his love of outdoor life—all combines to make most interesting, collection of letters.

This is a volume of ludicrous situations, decided in England by Monsieur J. Harle, a French political refugee. D'Haleot was a member of the First Deux. Tous Leagues, or the U.D. T's as they stayed themselves. In the narration of his experiences he writes, while in England: "I shall tell you since the affair is how my secret, and as it hereafter looks over my narrative. I was a Royalist, an adherent of the right King of France, an still, I bought it openly. But at that time a demonstration had been prematurely a government was alarmed, and I had died. Webster's rapidly changing moods from optimism to depression, and which he concealed with the patience of a stolic, are based on the fact that the various phases of which, which relate to his personal finances in the days when he was harassed by creditors. That Webster was an embody of the industry, which had been doubtful, who will read them. They testify that he was a man of sound business sense, as well as a great intelligence. The Webster is limited to the public by embracing almost every variety of human interests. Webster's unfortunate financial complications have not been a result of the dissatisfaction of the state. It is really luminous to find out, after perusing these letters, that the man who stood for the commercial interests of New England and the commercial community and ability possessed sound business sense, and would have been one of the wealthiest men of his day had he devoted to his life and the need for the public weal. Investing heavily in Western lands in Ohio, Michigan and Minnesota—diverting his surplus earnings from these measures—perpetuated the great economic at the time in the great and momentous questions then vexing the statemanship of his period, his attention to his perseverance and the following with matchless eloquence the constitution of the United States, and turning to pieces of railways, and the development of the dividend states, then advocated by Hayne and Calhoun with commanding ability. These letters show that Mr. Webster's consensus of extraordinary care for the debate so much needed at that critical time in the country's history, deliberately consecrated himself to the public. The most most total effacement to the private interests. It is interesting to note in view of the insular interests of the United States from the Spanish American war, that Mr. Webster took the position that "This government must have a constitution respecting the extent of its own authority," and that to Samuel N. Sweet the authorship of the "Imaginary Speech" supposed to have been delivered by Samuel Adams in the Revolutionary Congress, is referenced. Washington, D. C. Dec. 31, 1849. Desir St. Washington to answer the same inquiry as that which you propose to me in your letter of the 28th of this month, to my compulsion. The congress of my revolution set with closed doors, and there is no report of the Declaration of Independence. We only know that John Adams spoke in favor of the Declaration of Independence. In a letter written from Philadelphia soon after the Declaration was issued, illuminations, and other modes would be celebrated in time to come by bonfires, illuminations, and other modes of death, hearing the ringing of bells, he asked the occasion, and being told that it was the shining of the sun characteristic of the month his sentiments, and his manner of speech and elocation. All the rest is mine. It must not be supposed that Mr. Webb did not find time from his manifold abilities to show the men the showers show that he was a sportman—went in for hunting and fishing with zest and skill, and studied them, and knew their histories with the gun as with the rod. Says the author: "Probably nothing is easier side as the letter to Abbot, his amanuensis, which tells of the vast litter of mind wandering over the fields of thought, found alluring on every side. The man who was the physical mind of the world but the physical energy—the t惯less patience and the sacrifice of the world that poured out of his mind of the details were wanting. He loved too well to feel his power over men, and to get used to it. He could put forth a ginnet's strength for an hour or a day, but he had no awareness of the writer of literary monuments. --- **STORIES OF AUTHORS' LOVES** *Stories of Anne*, by forty-five photos, gravature and durograve reproductions *Pamela*, by forty-five photos, Pp. $3.80, $4.00, Philadelphia, J.

"To be a wife, a real true wife, to any girl, and graces vouchsafied to woman, is complement—is a mission calling for the most love inspired and alertly intelligent girls and graces vouchsafied to woman, and any man, it is twice the wife of a man, and many women have failed in this undertaking; when one comes to think First is the peaceful love of Tennison, Emily Selwood, he wrote the lines in The Princess; the maiden only cleave to her and worship her by years of noble deeds. Until they win her; for indeed I know that she thought through and amabil words and courting words. Than is the maiden passion for a maid Not only to keep down the base in man, but to keep down the base in woman. And love of truth, and all that makes a Tennison kept faith with his maiden passion and so did Emily Selwood and on the basis of that, she published of "In Memoriam," there was a wedding, "of the quietest" in Shikpa church, "of the most beautiful" in churches, "Miss Mitford says, 'which give so much of character to English lands- "It is probable true of most women that their first ideals of love are of some one as they grow older, their cry is first for all, for some one to love supremely, for some one to love who can do most for her; her second ideal is the man she can do most for—the second ideal is never supplanted. The same man thrives divinely on service,苛饿性." One light that failed is the pathetic endurance and to the best of his ability Rushkin tried through six years to his wife's wife's degree, with her, but failed. When youth, beauty and vigor corresponding to her beauty and vigor, corresponded to the person of her husband's friend, the artist John Ewertley Millis, she looked up to her husband, and in her he loved her straightway, and she loved him. She presents the marriage which had never been any marriage at all, was an unhappy marriage, as in his boyhood, with his parents again and after a time she who had been married, and in radiantly happy wife, whose long years of perfect wedded bliss are known to all.

D'Haricot encounters an English-man, the ruling in the same railway car-range with him, the represals of self-strained and reticent, and after many vain attempts to draw him into a conversation, which resulted only in replies life, drawn with the master hand of the art of the table, seeing the humorous side of the most authentic situations and picturing them with a skill which puts the author easily in the front rank of humorous writers. M. D'Haricot is not in England very long before he is drawn into a duel which is described with all the wit and risibility of the immortal combat in which Bob Acres found himself involved. Some of the scenes and incidents of the story recall Mark Twain's "Innocents Abroad," and are well capable of elective manner to be from anyone, however grave or pessimistic. The innumerable funny situations through which D'Haricot passes, and which are related with such a charming article, are only a part of the old and very adroitness make Mr. Cluston's work a very desirable addition to the library of anyone.

She was transmitted to the students of French school by actor sketches of Napoleon's great Lieutenants which are at once entertaining. The period immediately succeeding the Napoleonic era was the most brilliant political and military movements in history. The overarching theme of the book is the rise of the common people possesses for all time imperishable interest for the stu-dents of history, no less than the refreshing simplicity of the writer, "The Memoirs of a Contemporary" is a book which one lays down in a project that she had not written more.

He has a life of heavenly things, visible type of heaven itself, from the day when God's life is made up of the文字 and fashion of the temple down the corner. He is the most of the peaks of the Middle Ages lavished their scanty wealth and toiled with devout hands to the cathedrals and abbeys, this thought has, in the same way, a large number of everyone's churches, brighten Christendom with the memory of devout and reverend tunes. They were the treasure of the old and old, and the treasure and labor lavished so abundantly as concerned as they might never be on any other structure. All the wonders of the world are of the same nature, of the treasure gathered from many lands, were lavished here in gratitude and praise and the power of the human power of the world. In this case, in 1600, all things failed in a measure, to show the deep devotion of faithful and unglory, and the mode of the majesty of that Presence that should enter and dwell therein.

Lester, 76. San Francisco, Elmer & Shepherd. The "Philosophy of Despair" by David B. Lester, includes the very interesting and notable books of his reading, his page one thinks of the grace of Rushin not simply because of the style of his writing, but of depth and heedfulness. "To the pessimistic philosopher, depersonalize the situation. There is no progress, only adaptation. Every creature must suffer. The beast fits the forest for the same reason that the river fits its bed. Life is only possible under certain conditions in which it is destroyed. In this volume the learned author Gustave M. Meyer so entirely novel us to almost convince one that there is something "new" which appeals to the masses. The simplicity of style and freedom from literary convention puts in the reach of all understandings. UNFetterED. Unfettered by Sutton E. Griggs, author of "Imperium in Imperio." Cloth. pp. 108. Nashville. Term. Orn. pp. 108. Nashville. Term. Orn. "Unfettered" is a novel in which the author endeavors to state the race problem with some completeness. The scene of the story is in Tennessee and the characters introduced, both Caucasian and Afro-American represent all the various grades of Southern society. As a story it is well enough contrived to hold the attention of the reader, and it is written in an engaging style. The book has many elements of power; it is sincere, deep, forcible and very much in earnest. Many of the characters are well and are true to life. In itself it is a proof of the gradual advancement of the race. Mr. Griggs is an optimist who looks forward to a great future for the Afro-American race. "Unfettered" is a book which ought to be read by every person who seeks light on the great race problem which confronts the country. --- Old Plantation Days, by Martha S. Gloeow. Illustrated with striking character, by New York, R. H. Russell. The success of "Ubene Remus," Paul A. Gloeow, illustrated with sketches has caused many writers to their attention to the Negro of the South, and to the North of the West, in a merit. A more delightful contribution has not been made to the literature of the South, but especially as it was "befo de dah, than." The book is a collection of original diary stories said to have been taken from the Negro community, of which do not belle their alleged source. The stories are all worth the telling, and the illustrations are difficult no ex-egregated. Illustrated with striking photographs from living types. NATHAN DER WEISE.

The "Rubalaty of Omar Khayam, Jr." by Robert E. Lessing, San Francisco, Elder & Sheerer. The "Rubulayt of Omar Khayyam Jr." by Wallace Irwin is nothing less than a very cleverly written parody on the original Omaq. And the previous more of it is to those critics of the real Omar who positively refused to accept his verse as the labor of genius. They hold of Omar as Sociates held of poets in general when he was the first of the most illustrious people as to the meaning of their sentences and they were unable to tell me.

Another View of the Colored Brother. St. Paul, Jan. 28.—To the Editor: Referring to your editorial of today anent the stand of James H. Hayes, the colored attorney, taken at the court, to the writer merely desires in this note to voice another sentiment for the consideration of your many readers. To begin with, the forceful, earnest speech credited to this man would seem anything but 'cheap bragging' and the writer merely desires in this note that Mr Hayes to carry out such a program, is it not as well to let such men as Tillman and our friends of the Atlanta Constitution understand that the peace at any price sentiment does not altogether dominate the spirit, and that the action of our colored brothers? Of course, but you can expect that this man's outburst of righteous wrath—whatever his judgment—will prove the cause, not the excuse, for a return in kind. Still, is it not its lasting moral lesson, or the teaching of the gentle Christ, to turn the other cheek, will be harkened for and practiced until the cord Mrs. Wayback—I see here where Reuben Slopay is again to git married.

PLAN OF COUNCIL ORGANIZATION President Fortune Formulates it on the Eve of Leaving the Courier- ship. To the Officers and Members of the National Afro-American Council: As I shall leave the United Sts shortly for the far East, to be abate, perhaps six months, my last thought in doing so is the well-being, as the one organization of the race whose primal object is the preservation and proper defense of the civil and political rights of the Afro-American people. My best thought, sympathy and effort have been devoted, during the past twelve years at the National Afro-American League, at Chicago, January 15, 1890—to the paramount necessity of effective race organization for mutual protection and defense of civil rights and mutual interests. Effective organization is the only supreme power in modern society, and the power of the race has been its refusal to recognize and live up to this principle of social security and progress. We have depended too much upon others to do for us what we could and should do for ourselves. Mankind is selfish by nature and the enforced conditions of social security and protection of our own interests will find to their sorrow, that others are for age A LARGE CONTRACT.

The main difficulty with and drawback to the National Afro-American Council is the basic stantial basic organization. The masses of the people do not belong to it or support it with their sympathy and money. Its annual conventions are held in New York and composed of fraternal delegates and professional interests, who are willing to pay $5 for participation in the deliberations of the convention and who cease to be active members when the assembly of the organization is the final board of the organization really constitutes the only membership of the National Council from the adjournment of one annual convention to the assembly of the organization of the state council in California, which has changed from the Afro-American League of California to the Afro-American Council of California at a state convention held in New York, which has changed the National Council at St. Paul, last August. No organization constituted as the National Afro-American Council is today, as to its basic membership, can do the important work mapped out by its founders and expected by the people. This work in this matter will be approved by the next annual convention, and hoping that it will result in a basit membership of the council, and basing my action pimarily on Article VI of the plan of state organization of the constitution of the National Afro-American Council, in the following plan of local organization: 1. Ten persons shall be competent to organize a local council circle to be offered as provided for in Article II of the by-laws for local organization the local circle to be restricted in membership to the people to one delegate in state conventions upon payment of assessment provided in Article XVIII of plan of state organization and to one delegate in annual National Council conventions upon payment of the tax provided in Article III, section 2, of the constitution of the National Afro-American Council. 2. Women may organize separate local circles upon precisely the same conditions prescribed for men in specification 1 herewith 3. Women may organize a state council, as provided by Article IX of the national constitution. STMAS GIFT. Horatio? be jeweler for a dimon sunburst for her. I sincerely hope, in every community where there are ten persons congenial to each other and interested in the welfare of the race, that they will at once organize a local council circle.
