The Appeal

JUSTICE IN EUROPE. WHOLESALE ARRESTS OF OF- FENDING CITIZENS. Refused to Pay Taxes or Otherwise Obey the Laws Brings Prompt and Drastic Punishment—Peculiar Case in Prussian Poland. A strange story comes from the little town of Candete, in the southeast of Spain. The people of this district have been complaining for years past that they are overtaxed. Lately they determined to pay no more taxes to the government, and when they heard that the tax collectors were about to visit the place they formed a procession to the public square, headed by the mayor, and there publicly burned all the taxapers. When the collectors arrived they were driven off with sticks and stone. But because of theness could not be left unpunished. A week or two later a battalion of calvary descended suddenly upon the town and arrested every grown man in the place. They were only released upon paying the taxes and the costs of the proceedings, besides an indemnity to the injured tax gatherers. Candate is not the only town whose inhabitants have got into trouble over the question of taxes. No fewer than 8,000 warrants have just been issued in the French department of the eastern Pyrenees, and that number of households have been arrested. They include the heads of almost every family in five different townships. The wholesale legal action is the indirect result of the present low price of wine. The arrested men are all wine growers, who have refused to pay their taxes as a protest against a refusal on the part of the government to give them financial assistance. A Siberian town in the district of Smeinsk, possessing the extraordinary name of Schemonaapsekwo, was temporarily depopulated a few years ago. The law of the district is that each town must attend to the repairs not only of its own streets, but of the roads for some distance around. The people of the town in question became careless in this respect. They were warned several times, but still nothing was done. The governor of the province happened to visit the district and his transexuck in a quagmire on the main road. A few days later a force of soldiers arrested 1,400 of the inhabitants. These were at once set to work upon the roads in gangs, and fed on bread and water for some weeks, until the existing state of things was remedied. Prussia has for years past been endeavoring to Germanize Prussian Poland, but has experienced great difficulties, owing to the resistance of parents to their children being taught the German language. At Buk, in this district, a strange thing happened. One morning a few months ago all the school children seemed suddenly to have lost the faculty of understanding German. They refused to reply to questions asked of them in that tongue, although the day before they had talked German freely. The whole thing was, in part, a preconcerted push against the German teaching. Vengeance was short and sharp. A regiment of dragons descended upon the town, was quartered upon the householders, who were given to understand that neither they nor their unwelcome guests were permitted to leave the town limits until the strange forgetfulness of the children was remedied. IDEAS OF AUSTRALIAN JUDGE. Gems of Thought In His Closing Add deeds to a Jury. Chief Justice Sir John Madden of Australia is noted for his mellifluous style of addressing juries. Recently he presided over a curious breach of promise case in Melbourne and here are a few of his summing up remarks: "Women like to be approached by a process of steady, solid, honorable siege. A mere beating of tom-toms and letting off explosive works does not affect them very much." "The turtures are made up of trade upon the young or old, and try to induce them to part with their money." "It has been suggested that a volcanic young Irishman (the defendant) should be permitted a greater range of expression than any one else, and I see no objection to that proposition." And this was Sir John's final hint to the jury in the matter of awarding damages: "A true lover, no doubt, would pay no regard to the fact that the lady been the plaintiff in an action for breach of promise, and ordered by it." The jury took the hint, and ordered the "volcanic Irishman" to pay $1,500. The lady had asked for $25,000. Adieu to France. Adieu to France! my latest glance Falls on the jow and bay, Rochete; Achieves the land and sea, Rochete; And springtime, like a pleasing spell, Harmonious holds the land and sea, How long, alas! I can not tell, Ere this scene will come back to me! The hours fleet fast, and on the mast Soil will be laid, and on the ground; Soil will the outer bay be passed, And on the sky-line eyes will fail To see a streak that means the land. On the shore, and on the sea, Hope at the helm, and in God's hand. What do I meet, my heart will beat To see my dearest, dearest and gay; She ever will in memory's seat Be present to my mind alway, Hope whisperes my return, And this should be my mey nay, and this should be my latest view, Fair France, loved France, my France, adieu! sabue la France, salut! —John Hunter-Duvar. TREE THAT DRIES UP SPRINGS. Eucalyptus Should Not Be Planted in Their Vicinity. At a recent meeting of the National Agricultural Society of France M. Lamey reported, according to Cosmos, that the eucalyptus is a dangerous tree in the neighborhood of springs, which it dries up rapidly. "I have seen," said he, "a eucalyptus whose roots had penetrated into the pipes of a sink. The fountain that supplied the house had been destroyed by the roots of neighboring eucalyptus trees, which it was necessary to cut down. At the forestry station of St. Ferdinand, built near a spring that issues from a natural grotto, the roots of the eucalyptus trees planted above have penetrated the fissures in the rock and have completely covered the interior of the grotto with a thick velvet layer formed by an innumerable quantity of tiny rootlets, short and tuffed, similar to those by which the walls. Owing to their energetic absorptive power these rootlets, greedy for water, had also invaded and choked the conduits so that the outflow from the spring was greatly reduced. We may say, then, that although certain species of eucalyptus are valuable aids in drying marshy land it is prudent to keep from planting them in the neighborhood of springs used for domestic purposes or irrigation." PIGS' FEET FOR SLEEPLESSNESS Here Is a Pointer That May Be Worth Something. "The story sent out from Washington that the Siamese Minister had not been able to sleep for a month, not even for a few minutes, may seem incredible to persons accustomed to their eight hours every night," said a New York specialist in neurasthenia, "but in the profession we are constantly coming across such instances. Most persons would suppose that a man or woman going without sleep for a month would succumb to sheer exhaustion. Nothing of the kind. Many patients refuse to take narcotics, no matter how long they go without sleep, and when they do feel that way the doctor seldom insists. I had a patient this winter who never slept a wink for forty-two days. He was suffering from a common form of insomnia. I got his digestion all right inside him, regulating it and giving him a set of pigs' feet about three hours before bedtime. It was as successful as it has been in other cases. No, I don't say that there is any virtue in pigs' feet as a sedative, but in the digestive process they induce restful slumber quite different from the stupor sleep induced by heavy feeding." Extravagance of Treating. Is it not a fact that men really spend in treating amounts that they really would hesitate to give away, no matter how deserving the charity? It is a trait of human character that comes through all absorbing disposition to "hold your end up" when with a friend. Hundreds of men take thousands of drinks that they do not want and other hundreds pay for thousands that are not worth anything: "Mighty gays" to see you. You have something." Neither generally needs or even wants a drink. But the man who offers it wants to show that he is generous. He takes this method of proving that he is glad to meet his friend. The friend, after he has taken the drink that he did not want, to prove that he too is a good fellow, insists upon a second round. The German custom of entering a friend with a drink and paying it, and no others, if it is not in America would provoke resisting. The American cus- tion of treating is decidedly a curse. What we do for friendship's sake costs us many a dollar and many a pang— Springfield, Mass., Union. The Earth and Man.

THE YELLOWSTONE PARK In Grandeur and Natural Beauty the Spot Is Unequaled on Earth — Natural Enemies Dwell Within Its Confines in Fraternal Amity. Not to intimate that the President of the United States has been guilty of plagiarism in his recent comments upon the beauties and rejuvenating character of the Yellowstone park, it was famous old Jim Bridger, the Dan THE WATER CREEK jel Boone of the Rocky Mountain country, who first brought the news of this bit of nature's wonderland to the civilization represented by St. Joseph, M., away back in the 50s. Belief of Some Souadan Tribes Is Curious and Postal. Among the appendices of Lord Cromer's reports on Egypt and the Soudan for 1902 is an interesting note on the religious beliefs of the tribes dwelling along the banks of the Behr el-Ghazal. The Dinka, it says, though the most difficult of all to approach on such subjects, appears to have a most elaborate list of gods and demi gods. At the heart of it is Ditt (Rain Giver) and municipality are Ditt (Rain Giver). They have two sons, Kur Kongs, the elder, and Gurung-Ditt, the younger, and a daughter called Aiyak. Their devil is called L'wal Burrajok, and is the father of Abok, the wife of Deng-Ditt. There are other relatives also. Their story of the origin of mankind (or it may be of the Dinka tribe) is curious and poetical. Deng-Dit gave to his wife Abok a bowl of fat, and she and her children, softening the fat over the fire, proceeded to mold from it men and women in the image of gods. Deng-Dit against L'daï (Ditt), who was suspected having evil intentions toward Deng-Dit. But Abok forgot, and with her children went to gather wood in the forest. There L'wal found the bowl, drank the greater part of the fat, and from the remainder proceeded to mold caricatures of men and women with distorted limbs, mouths, and eyes. Then, fearing the vengeance of Deng-Dit, he descended to earth by the path which then connected it with heaven. On discovering the result of her neglect, Abok hastened to her husband, who, greatly in need, started in pursuit. The latter had persuaded the bird Atoktoish to bake asunder with its bill the path from heaven to earth, and thus escaped from the divine wrath—London Telegraph Defective Page THE ORIGIN OF MAN. It is true that old Jim made no reference to the place as a health resort. Few people needed health in those days and those who were in search of it kept east of the Missouri river, well out of the range of the Blackfeet and who did not. Jim it was the place "where h—— bubbles over," and this was his description of the spot when the editor of the Kansas City Journal first listened to Jim's stoical account of its wonders. The editor even prepared an article on that wonder section of the country, but suppressed it on account of its being unbelievable. Jim stuck to the story. Jim wrote in 1783 the report on the paper printed an editorial apology to Bridger for his lack of credence in the story. Today old Jim Bridger's story would not be half strong enough to encompass the whole truth of the region now set aside as a national park for all the people. Within its domains the lion almost literally has lain down with the lamb. Bear and deer and elk and moose that flied across the plains in those early days would only stand and stare at him now in curiosity and interest. The mountain sheep, shyest of all the animals of the hills, would allow him to ride within a stone's throw of the crag upon which it rested. Even the mountain lion, which at times forces the military guards of the park to wage war upon his carnivorous destructiveness, is immune from the attack of the lion hibernators. Only the specious trout of the mountain streams and lakes may be taken to bag by the sportsman. President Roosevelt, in leaving the park, paid it a lasting tribute within the limits of a paragraph. "The Yellowstone park," he said, "is something absolutely unique in this world, as far as I know. Nowhere else in any civilized country is there to be found such a tract of veritable wonderland, made accessible to all visitors, where at the same time not only the scenery of the wilderness but the wild creatures of the park are scrupulously preserved as they were, the only change being that these same wild creatures have been so carefully protected as to show literally astounding tameness." Geologically and topographically nature left it unique, and in many respects the hand of man has improved upon it. In its rocks and bowlers are to be found the materials of which the foundations of the world are made. The great seas which once rolled over the continent have left their sedimentary rocks in layers thousands of feet thick. Then came the age of mountain building, when the foundations of the great deep were broken up. In the mountains, river beds shaking valley after valley. Then the volcanic period and after that the period of glaciers. And today, after age upon age of cooling of the earth's crust, there are 3,600 hot springs in the park and the scores of geysers and paint pots and mud spouting cones and pools. Of the geysers there is little that is new to be said. The Glantess and Old Faithful and the Fountain and the Minute Man are familiar names to everybody, but not to them of them all that never disappoints the visitor, as his spoutings occur at intervals of sixty-five to seventy minutes, when water is U. S. GRANT'S LOG CABIN. Gen. Frederick D. Grant Visits the Home of His Boyhood. Gen. Frederick Dent Grant on Tuesday visited the scene of his early childhood, the famous log cabin of his illustrious father, who built it on the old Dent farm, in St. Louis county, fifty years ago. He "Hardscrabble," as the famous civil war leader called this homestead in his days of poverty, has been removed by its present owner from its original location, just cast off the art palace, where it will stand during the World's Fair. Brig. Gen. Grant had been desirous of seeing his old home ever since his arrival in St. Louis. It was here he had lived in his early childhood, and he viewed the time-worn interior in silence. After looking through the empty rooms he named the uses to which the four rooms had been put during the residence of the Grant family in the cabin. The room to the right, he said, had been the family dining room; that to the left, the parlor. On the second floor, the room above the parlor was the apartment of his parents, while that above the dining room was the room used by himself and his brother. The cabin, although half a century old, is in a fair state of preservation.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Usefulness Would Be Gone. Mayor Low is telling an incident that occurred while he was visiting one of the state prisons in company with a clergyman. The good man stopped at the cell of a burglar, and asked solemnly: "My poor erring brother, have you any hopes for the future?" "Naw!" answered the prisoner with deep dejection, "by the time I get out of this blasted jail I'll be too old to be a man anybody's house!"—New York Times. thrown from 125 to 150 feet into the air.

Submarine Boat Used Forty Years Ago, but it Sank. We sometimes believe that there has been an absolutely new thing brought out in the way of invention, and yet somebody comes along with an old document and upsets it. Only a short time ago it was shown that wireless telegraphy was over thirty years-old, and that Mr. Loomis was trying to interest people in it. For a half dozen years experiments have been made on the telegraphy. There has been a deal of talk about them first and last. Factions for and against them have been formed in the navy, and you can find everything from praise to the worst condemnation of them in the official records. More than this, there have been scandals about them. Congressional investigations, with various persons named. During all this time we have been treating the submarine boat as something new and belonging to the navy, and we have a volume of the naval records of the civil war is a picture of a submarine boat, invented by a Confederate naval officer. The picture taken from one in the museum at Richmond, Va., looks very like the craft over which there has been so much dispute for a few years past. The submarine boat of forty years ago was invented by H. L. Henley, and was to be used as a torpedo boat to attack the blockading vessels of the United States. Henley had confidence in it, for a brief account is given of his attempt to pass under some ship, when he failed, and he and seven men were亡. "We could not attempt to rescue them," says the accounter, "but we fathoms of water." It is recorded that "bubbles appeared" which marked the place where they went down—Washington Post.

HABITS OF ECONOMY MAN AND WOMAN INDULGE IN USELESS ARGUMENT. Thriftless Tricks of Both Sexes Discussed in Detail—Dispute Ende with Triumphant Female Setting Out for Bargain Sale. Economy was under discussion. "A woman knows how to economize much better than a man does," she said, decidedly. The man looked skeptical, but said he was willing to be convinced by proofs. "Now, see here, when you have a bit of a headache you rush out to the drug store and get the clerk to give you a powder," she said. "The next time you have a headache you do the same thing, and you spend a surprisingly large amount of money in this way." Well, what would you have me do?" asked the man. "Stand the headache, I suppose, and get cross and irritable." "No, my dear man, I certainly would not, for when a man makes up his mind to stand his headache there's no living in the same county with him. But I would have you go out and buy a dozen powders or so, and so have them on hand. Buying them in a large quantity is much less expensive than buying them in driblets. "Now another way in which a man is wasteful. He does not look after his laundry well, suddenly finds himself without clean collars or a clean shirt, and goes out and buys more. As a matter of fact, he has plenty on hand and does not need any more, but through his carelessness he has his money in shirts and collars when it is few cravats. That there's the matter of tobacco——" "Oh, say, no fair," said the man. "You must cut that out, you know. A man to smoke." "All right," said the woman, cheerfully. "But there's the habit of treating. Half the time you don't want to treat and the other fellow does not want to have you treat, but neither of you has the courage to cut it out. So you go on spending your money for something you do not enjoy yourself, and that is something of a bore to the man. The man looked a bit rueful and acquired for the first time. "There's something in that," he said. "And your stockings. So soon as a hole comes in them you throw them away. That's fearfully expensive. What if you are a bachelor; there are plenty of professional menders nowadays, and you could get the work done easily enough." "Don't want to bother with it," said the man, a trifle grumply. "The woman went calmly on." "Shaves and closes. Why don't you shave yourself?" "Cause I have to spend so much money in courtplaster if I did," said the man, quickly. "Now, these are only a few of the ways in which you waste money," the woman continued. "Have I convinced you that you don't know how to economize?" "How about the woman who buys a fructose lunch of soup and rolls and then blows a lot in for ice cream and fluffy duff?" asked the man. "How about woman's habit of buying a thing just because it is a bargain, when she has no possible use for it? How about her going to the-hardressers for a shampoo when she can do it very easily herself? How about the candy habit, and the visit of the doctor after a candy jag? How about the woman against his will and he's of the same opinion still?" chanted the woman, and left to attend the Friday bargain sale—New York Times. HE, ALSO, COULD BE FRUGAL. Good Lesson in Economy Given Notorious Miser. The stingiest man in the town of Bramville had sent for John Briggs to discuss a matter of importance. When Mr. Briggs entered the room it was lighted by one dim candle only. "It is a bright, starlight night," said his host, "and we don't need the candle to talk by." Whereupon he blew it out as soon as his guest had found a seat. The room was pitch dark, and the conversation was long. When it was over the host lighted the candle again to show his visitor this one. "Well, well, this is a strange sight," he blustered, for Mr. Briggs was minus coat, waistcoat, collar and necktie. "I'll put on now you've lighted the candle," said Mr. Briggs calmly. "I thought I might just as well save the wear on them as long as nobody could see."-Youth's Companion. Madrigal. When primroses begin to peer, Though distant hills be capped with and one stray thrush will carol clear To snowdrops drooping all a-a-row; When building rocks caw as they pass, Or melts the hoar-frost from the grass, The blood runs brisker in the veins. Then hey for the spring! when the sweet bird singing. Both lads and lasses love the spring. And all things feel the spring o' the year, The blood runs merrier in the veins. Then hey for the spring! when the sweet birds sing: Foth 12ds and lasses love the spring. —John Todhunter. DEAFNESS A HEAVY HANDICAP. Affliction That Is an Absolute Bar to Business Success. "If I were asked what physical misfortune is the greatest handicap in business I would say deafness," said a down town merchant the other day. "A person who is crippled can manage to get around in some fashion—at least, he will not undertake more than he can perform. A blind person always knows his limitations; he either retires from active participation in his business or has assistants to certain details. But there is no defense against deafness. People do not know you are deaf until they speak to you and you, perhaps do not think you are as deaf as you really are. "I knew one man who lost his whole fortune simply because he was deaf. He ran a haberdasher's shop on Broadway, and as he had been in the business for good many years he was quite prosperous. An accident nearly deprived him of his hearing, but he thought it would not prove a complete bar to his work. He began to lose money. He lost nearly all his old customers and had to depend on chance patronage. Why? Simply because he could not hear what the customers said to him. If one asked him for a hat he was apt to show him the latest in neckties. Shirts would be exhibited to the man who wanted to buy half a dozen collars. His friends urged him to sell out and retire, but he refused to do so until he had sunk his last dollar in trying to regain his lost patronage." THE CHURCH LOSING INFLUENCE. Ministers No Longer Guide Their Flocks in Secular Affairs. If scholarly men more and more reject the church as the means by which they will influence opinion and conduct, and replace it by educational, editorial and administrative agencies, the next century may be altogether guided in its intellectual decisions and in those of its actions which depend on intellectual judgments by forces outside the church. Our grand-fathers looked to the minister for advice, not only upon religious beliefs and moral practice, but also upon most matters outside their own direct acquaintance. The minister proffers for the education of sons, solved social problems and the source of the knowledge, truth in matters of general knowledge. Our sons seem likely to regard the ministry as a body of men fitted to deal with men's religious welfare, but less fitted to be general mentors than others. The direction of the people in other than purely religious activities may pass wholly out of the hands of the church—Century Magazine. The Gentle Art of Courtesy. Talk about European politeness! Tom is this for American manners! Tom and his fiancee were jogging home from a foxhole in the back of a big black horse came charging down the hill behind them. They hadn't thought much of the rider's horsemanship on the field, but he was sitting down to his work now, and had a jaw like Gibson's version of Richard Harding Davis. The horse had one of the same kind, and a Roman nose. Tom pulled to one side of the road and his companion to the other, while between them rushed that black simile. The man on his was in very good condition, but as he bowed to him he actually bowed, to the awful detriment of his balance, and called out: "I beg your pardon." Under the circumstances that was a triumph of politeness. Changes. Mourn, O rejoicing heart! The hours are flying; Each one some treasure takes, Each one some blossom breaks, And leaves it dying; The chill dark night draws near, The thy sun will soon depart, Aight deed to sight; The mourn, rejoicing heart, The hours are flying. Rejoice, O grieving heart! The hours fly fast; With each some sorrow dies, With each some shadow flies, Until at last The red dawn in the east Bids weary night depart, And pain is past. Rejoice, then, grieving heart, The hours fly fast. - Adelaide Proctor. Get a Line on His Age. Col. Phil Thompson prides himself justly upon being an exceedingly well-preserved man. As such he naturally dislikes to have his age made public. At the Waldorf one night last week, however, some one, leaning over, said to one of Phil's intimate friends: "How old is Thompson, anyway?" "I don't know Phil's age exactly," replied the friend, "but I can tell you the age of his twin brother John. He is fifty-seven."—New York Times. A. "Bob-tail" Flush. "Charley, dear," said young Mrs. Torkins, "you shouldn't let your artistic sense worry you so much." "What do you mean?" I overheard you talking to that friend with whom you play cards.

SATURDAY, JUNE 6, 1903. "We ask Thee, Lord, that Thou wilt raise, up a man who will kill him, and damnable heresy that this is a white man's country, and that a black man. Raise up some black man. Raise up some mother's knee, to the task of saving the black slave of to-day from the shackles of prejudice, but from the shackles of prejudice, from hatred, save the white man from his degradation, and lift him up until he can learn to live from his degradation, and lift God in God's own image."— Prayer by Rev. Newell Dwight Hill, M.D., of the New York Church, Brooklyn, New York. WHO IS REV. T. NELSON BAKER? The Rev. T. Nelson Baker of Pitts- field, Mass., who is out in an article in the Congregationalist Magazine, is praised by the Atlanta Constitution for his "honest commonsense views on the race question." The Rev. Nelson certainly does not speak for the thinking Afro-Americans when he upholds separate schools and disfranchisement and when he attempts to saddle the sin of "maluatothip" on the race he goes too far. The mixing of blood was started by the Caucasian and has continued until there are not 2,000,000 pure Negroes in the country. It was during slavery that the people who are now making so much fuss about "social equality" and the "natural antipathy of the races," compelled their black slave women to submit to their lustful embraces, and even today throughout the South many of the leading Caucasians who are able to support two establishments, have Caucasian wives and Afro-American mistresses. We are not proud of this group, but we are proud of them they are. The Caucasian who uses his money and influence to degrade the Afro-American is to blame for the conditions which exist. The charge that the mixed blooded people "pass by on one side and side and on the other on wounded and half dead" is a malicious slander. The majority of the defenders of the rights of the race are people of mixed blood, and many of them persons who could easily "pass for white" anywhere in the world. T. Thomas Fortune, one of the most bitter, unrelenting foes of race discrimination, really has very little Nile blood in his veins, and there are hundreds of others who have conceived and damnable discriminations which exist in this alleged free country. Very few Americans ever heard of T. Nelson Baker before, but now that he is writing discreditable things about his own people, the Southern people are in an endeavor to make him a "great Nero." This is the way the Pensylvania Boys Club works. "We command and approve the administration of President Roosevelt, who with great ability, fidelity and vigor has enforced the policies of his lamented predecessor, William McKinley, and of the Republican party. We favor his nomination and election to the Presidency in 1904, and pledge thereto the united support of the Republicans of Pennsylvania. Not only have authorities in the art world demonstrated that those most famous examples of classic beauty in sculpture—the Venus de Milo and the Apollo Believed—were chiseled from Ethiopian slave models, but Dr. Dudley Allen Sargent, director of physical culture in Harvard University, now announces the finest known living sculptors in the world in a human being to be a young mulatto named Thomas E. White. The Federation of Musicians, at the recent session at Indianapolis abolished the color line, and Afro-American musicians will not be designated as "colorel" any longer. Distinctions are odious, anyway. Music is music and melody melody, whether produced by black or white mouths or fingers. G. W. Garris, chairman of the South Carolina railroad commission, says in a recent interview: "The South is unalterably opposed to Negro office-holders. The white people of the South have no prejudice against the Negro as a citizen." The first statement proves that the second is false. The "best citizens" of Manchester, Ind., who were urging the discharge of all the Afro-American railroad hands because it was alleged that one of the members of the section, will have to call a halt because it has been shown that the crime was done by a Caucasian. --- They railroaded an Afro-American through the courts in Kaufman, Tex., and hanged him within four days of the date of his death, a white woman. This is a little improvement upon lynching at any rate, so I suppose we ought to be thankful for that. Compared with the gigantic steals by members of Missouri legislature Richmond, Va., Minneapolis, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and other city officials of the Caucae persuasion, the plifering of Afro-Americans during Rei Kaucae days was nothing but pet larceny. --- Henry Johnson, a Texas Afro-American, was saved from lynchings, tried, convicted and hanged within five days after he had committed murder. That's the way to do it. Swift and sure punitive crime will do move to punish it than lynchings and burials at the stake. The Charleston (S. C.) News and Courier says that the "Negro was created for a state of subjection." The recent developments in Alabama prove that the Southern people are consistently trying to keep the black man in a "state of subjection." Rev. Louis Richier, who was recently barred from the Presbyterian church, was a thrifty man—he acted as agent for a brewery when he wasn't interested in brewery souls. Another instance of the "moral superiority" of the Caucasian. The coming meeting of the National Afro-American Council at Louisville, Ky. July 11th. The prospects for a large and earnest gathering of the best intellect of the race are very good. The Southern papers all have long editorials denouncing the massacres of the Jews, yet they have little to say when a mob massacres Afro-Americans in Louisiana . Mississippi or Missouri. For a week or more bloodhounds have been on track of an Afro-American in Indiana, charged with murder and rape. It now turns out that a Caucasian committed the deed. It seems startling, yet there is also the proof that Afro-Americans, of the ignorant class, of course, are actually held in slavery in Alabama. The alleged "Negro Problem" is a matter which concerns us, and we are not willing to let our friends(?) of the South settle it. The Kentucky State Republican convention, which meets in July, will indorse the nomination of Roosevelt. Hon. Arthur Barclay was elected president of the Republic of Liberia at the May election. If it's wrong to mob Jews in Russia, it's wrong to mob Afro-Americans in this country. The spirit which finds expression in "race wars" seems to be growing in the South. The Southern papers are inviting the Jews to come to that section of the country. NEW YORK OLD AND NEW. "New York Old and New," By Rufus Rockwell Wilson. Two volumes. Illustrates Extra business and Real life. Philadelphia by John Hancock Company. follows in a succinct and careful man- ner the industrial development in the state. The wars which were fought in the United States exhibit the distinguished man, which will make in particular the need for and admirers. Letters and fragmentary sketches which have been included exhibit a genius for detailing all "New York Old and New." by Rufus Rockwell Wilson, is a publication in two volumes of the old and new, and the student, the student. The author, after reviewing the struggle upon the high seas between Spain, Holland and England for the first time, was given a�ing sketch of the settlement of New Amsterdam by the Dutch. This story of the establishment of the "Alto de Alto" was one of the world's greatest narratives of endurance, fortitude and tireless labor in the midst of vicissitudes and clings which would have been less hard in race. After recounting the growth of political institutions and the successive admiration of the author's "Alto de Alto," he was given the author brings us to the "Iron Rule" of Peter Stuyvesant, who declared in the presence of welcoming and humour, "the great time of the same time," as a father his children. He soon taught the colonists the meaning of his remark "that he would be a child of the old and new." He was a child'sínterictorial methods which brooked no opposition, by a stubborn and unyielding disposition to enforce seates, which was utterly contrary to that which they had been accustomed to living under the representative of the state. He was a representative form of government, was wrong from the home authorities. Stuyvesant claimed and offered a new work of the time, and the new work was as right as the other. He also assumed the right that he still had authority to make ordinances and issue proclamations in the city, even if the charter had been given the people wherein the rights of the governor were clearly limited and fixed by the king—or "High "The charter of 1655 marked the visible beginning of representative government in the United States, whose heroic labor it was due deserve and will ever hold an honorable place in history." "There were no idlers in the New Amsterdam," she wrote, "were a pleasure loving people, and found leisure for an abundance of homely and pleasant life." "The fight for a free press" is one of the most interesting chapters in the first volume of the book, which covers censorship, incarceration of editors who dared tell the truth, and finally the rebellion against it. A piece of history which is not very well known is told by the author, choreographer of the "Great Nogrot Plot" in 1741. "Negro slaves formed the foundation of the town began some time prior to 1628 and again in 1648, when a census of the town showed two thousand four hundred threes and a quarter. Thereafter the natural crease of the slaves and the importation of labor for the needs of the colony." The author then, after sketching the people in that time, usus that in the course of time the white people became, very much like the black people, slaves and began to enact such drastic laws against them which she would not nurture. "Slaves were prohibited from gathering on the Sabbath in groups of more than four. They were prohibited to go to the public places in the clubs under penalty of ten lashes at the whipping post; gaming was visited by the same penalty, and the slave who appeared to be in the street without any and a small amount of the Collect without a lantern and a light candle in it" was liable to forty lashes at the whipping post. Pinald's was deemed to be slave should be buried without pall or bearers, and not more than twelve slaves were permitted to attend the funeral. If these restrictions led to uprising among the slaves they were punished with unsparing hand. Then follows a very vivid account of the "Great Negro Plot" of 1741, which caused a panic among the inhabitants and was attended by the slave and torture of the most ex-fructating kind. The transition of New Amsterdam into the New York City of the Revolutionary period is followed by the author very far from no only with an unsolicited good full flow of language, but is elaborately illustrated by pictures of the scenes and places of early days. "These two elusmes are intensely interesting, and from a historical viewpoint the author has done much for the truth." THE TRUE ABRAHAM LINCOLN, The True Abraham Lincoln. By William Eleroy Curtis, author of The True Thomas Jefferson. Crown Svo. Cloth, discovered by Philip Philip, Philadelphia. J. B. Lincoln, Company. There are a few rare characters in history, the record of which is preceding generation, and which gleam brighter as time passes, instead of fading with the general wreck of men and things, by which they were destroyed. These characters are unique and original and bear striking analogies to each other, which is their self-delivery to truth. They may be called the guide posts of the University of Pennsylvania, Socrates, Luther and Lincoln. It is about the latter that William Eleroy Curtis has written the title, "The True Abraham Lincoln." The story of Lincoln is always absorbed in the stories which have been written about him would stock a library of large dimensions and which surpass the number which surpass in arrangement of literary detail. Mr. Curtis's publication, "Do More to Profound Influence on western thought," that its literature on the eminent careers of distinguished statesmen and soldiers, Mr. Curtis, however, writes in a natural manner about an artist who was used as that man. Mr. Lloyd had faults, as a youth, and as a man. These faults, as he said, are characteristic of the sublimity of his character, which had been attained before his assassination. These are profuse and some of them appear for the first time in a published biography of the Great Emancipation." Lincoln, the Leader of the Springfield Bar, has written his intellectual development, from that of the average pioneer, upward and onward until he was such a man, such a pass in the logical presentation of his cases men who had been trained in in- The occasion upon which Lincoln displayed unusual power as an orator was the Bloomingman of the�, the organization of the Republican party early in 1856. Never was an audience more completely electrified by human speech. The Convention, which was the first of all political forms, was the process of all political parties, had not adopted the name Republican, had taken extreme grounds against slavery, and has launched a new political organization, but continued to disdain and disrehomptively, and still elements. Those who had watched the proceedings were anxious and apprehensive of dissention and jealousy, and Lincoln, with his acute political perceptions of the power of the people, was very many than any other man in the assembly. He saw before him a group of earnest, zealous, sincere men; willing to make tremendous good and good time, and the same time most of them clung to their own theories and advocated their individual methods with a tenacity of promise to to the end of the people. Before when he arose in response to the unanimous demand for a speech from the great orator of Springfield, his soul was flooded with a glazed gourmet, and was so long as to have a small amalgamate the patriotic emotions of his associates. Those who were present say that in first he spoke slowly, and quickly, and in a monotonous but easily the words grew at the end and intensify until he swept the discordant souls of the assembly together and his hearers "arose from their chairs with pale faces and quivering lips and pressed unconsciously towards him. His MISSISSIPPI HISTORICAL SOCIETY. Publications of the Mississippi Historical Society, Edited by Franklin L. Riley, Secretary, Fp. 668. *U.S. GEOGRAPHY.* The sixth volume of the "Publications of the Mississippi Historical Society," which that society has yet given to the public. Besides giving much interest in the history and settlement of the state, it follows in a, succinct and careful manner the industrial development of the state. The wars which were fought in the early times with the aborigines therein, and famous battles fought during the War of the Rebellion are described, and much information which has hitherto remained obscure, is brought to the construction of the South. A session of the construction of the South States is elaborately set forth from the view point of the South and in the light of the present agitation over the suffrage question, it will be in relation to those things that contained in the chapter on Reconstruction. "It is deeply interesting at this time, when the passions aroused by the Great Civil War," he passed away, and the ganguillity of the proposed of a patriotic and reunited people, past events can be reviewed with calmness and fairness, to examine the great historical evidence of the war with which the government (the 14th amendment) and to draw a just conclusion in respect to the purpose and motives of its advocates; and to understand the reasons why Southern states declined to accept the terms of reconstruction thus proposed by Congress. The criticism made by Mr. Blaine and the Republican leader of that time was that the South's action was characterized by a lack of statesmanship and sagacity, and that the attitude taken by them forced Congress to make negro "If Mr. Lincoln had lived, his large armies would have with his tact and wisdom, might have smoothed the way to a pacification of the Indians, and all those qualities, and with him the differences between the Executive and the Legislature, and with him the reconciled and adjusted assumed the proportions of an open rupture, and as well as a great statesman, and under his auspices it is improbable that the South would have two contending forces in a political war between the Congressional and Executive armies." The volume is beautifully illustrated, and is a very valuable contribution to the study of the country, from the viewpoint of the South. . . . BIRD GODS IN ANCIENT EUROPE. Bird Gods in Ancient Europe. By Charles De Cazer, 273 pp. Cloth. New York: A. S. Barnes & Co. 2001. Bird Gods. by Charles De Kay, is the rather rare class of information relative to the feathered deities of the Northern Europe. There is the evidence of more than which in this book—research which is exposed in narrative style at once attractive and witty. The author not only tells us what birds are the ancients worshipped, but goes into the philosophy of such worship, and tells us its name is the only one of which is the bedcomes which make very delightful myths. Take the woodpecker as an instance. When a female of the same size of the European savage, noble or investor of the puffed-up race, finding it a matter of deep thought how to keep a root over the head, the lower, the lower, the lower to the weak, a ringing before power, subject to periodical famines because of his plot of disdormance, dissatisfaction, and his laziness, and filthy habits, we and understand his envy and admiration of a bird which is in addition to various marvelous things. The first time we had a critical side so developed that it can chisel for itself in a few hours a neat, dry cave in the bole of a tree—a bird ever, gay of the same size—to a bird's a higher level where no green thing grows, right under its busy, beak. Mr. Woodpecker was thought to know the whole abouts of hidden treasures; whereof he is a special creation of the high god Ukko of the Finns and has a new form of affinity to fire, also a rain and thunder god. The author then proceeds to tell us power the woodpecker or hered over the palm trees, bals entry into the peninsula, says he has seen the eyes of the Roman soothsayers can penetrate the palm trees, scarcely in form, showing a man seated with a bird before him, which he applauds. The eyes of the man is an auspice or soothsayer is reasonably certain from the fact that he is a man with a wristwatch the little wristwatch with Etruscan inscription in the palm tree, very interesting anecdotes, anent the mysterious power for good or evil clumsiness. The Cuckoo, Peacock, Owl and other birds have in turn been worshiped by the people. Egyptians, Abyssinians and other powerful races who wrought so mightily. The author further tells us that "it is the power of the palm trees England that on a certain solemn occasion in the year 1304, his investigators, who were in England, were brought in, and he thereupon swore an oath to the God of Heaven on --- THE REAL BENEDICT ARNOLD. The Real Benedict Arnol. By Charles Burr Todd, author of the Arnol Arno B�, 1800-1840, with illustrated; net. $1,20.20 New York: A. S. Barnes & Co. The "real" and "true" people seem to have the front of the stage just now. An unpleasant answer to the prevailed irony of the man that Benedict Arnol has not been fairly treated, that his services to his country were ignored and his great fault was not over-emphasized, perhaps, because it was not always established. Treatment to one's country far surpasses the other great treachery to one's friend and is not to be condomed in any wise. There may be, however, certain circumstances which need to be deed and modify the bitter condemnation. While not condoning Arnold's treason. Mr. Todd emphasizes his invaluable service to America, and is now very well known by the Colonies: first at the battle of Valour's Island on Lake Champlain (the first naval battle, by the way, in which our war is being engaged), before his separate The British such wholesome respect for American arms that they gave up their plan of invasion from the north that year; second by the The�gegan, the�gegan, the�gegan, the�gegan and putting to flight St. Legeray invading army marching to aid Burgoyne, and third and fourth by winning the two battles of Saratoga, which, conjoined by Chesley included one, the green de- Mr. Todd also shows that it was the loss of losing her should her reasonable correspondence with the British officers be discarded.

A woman, being a Quaker maiden's account of her experiences with office life, wrote to Albert Cook Myers. With reproductions of portraits man-made for me, pp. 224. Philadelphia. Ferris & Leach. Journal is the record kept by a Quaker girl of 16 during a wintry holiday. The greater part of the book has to do with the sayings and doings of American house, to their attentions to the writer and her friend Lyddy and to her regrets of peril. Her "teeth rattled" and her teeth were sore, and she first saw these soldiers, but she soon overcomes the feeling thus expressed and vice is summon up all your resolution, call fortitude to your aid, and don't suffer anything like courage; "is what I stand in need of myself," she soon did. The writer, are she, says, "very peaceable sort of girl like them and behave with elegance." One "is the most amenable of men: tall will most fully characterize— "How skilled he is in each obliquing The midst manners with the bravest heart." A soldier. A second is "monsant tall and brown, but has a certain something in his face and conversation very gracile.

The Romance of the Commonplace. By George Eliot. By James M. Jackson. Paul Elder and Morgan Shepard. This is a volume of modern philosophy, with a great deal of interest in essays famous by james K. james. Mr. Burgess says many clever things in his book, but he is not the most contagious of discover many commonplace words written in a very uncommon manner. "The one thing that makes a book so contagious is the most contagious of diseases, and few of us are immune. Some vigorous moral contagion of the epidemic it begins is hard work stopping it, and a secret on the rampage, then, broadcast, and it have it a way until it dies out. But above all never forget the slightest desire to tell, for there, like a flower, is a minute and flower long after you have forgotten it, aye, and bring forth fruit you will again. Flattery is, however, an edged tool, and must be used with care. It is not a glance just how much his victim will stand." Again: Flattery is, however, an edged tool, and must be used with care. It is not a glance just how much his victim will stand. THE ARCHERY OF SAMARA. The Archery of Samara. By Henry Iloiwiz. $1.50. Philadelphia: Henry T. Mr. Ilowziw well remembers the terrible treatment of the Poles during their last siege, most of the incidents narrated in his romance. He writes with the bitterer tongue of the terror enthroned in St. Petersburg is the dragon that holds the hat of two men who try to crush him who dares to put a straw in his way. He tries to confine the pale; it can enpire an empire where the sun never sets, peopled by 130,000,000 of beings in various stages of degradation at least once in his life. It is unwieldy mass of heterogeneous humanity in various stages of degradation at least once in his life. It is another and all hating the police and the army. These sentiments form the undercurrent of the book and are in strange contradiction to what has been said. The polesies of reform adopted. They are in keeping, however, with the latest newspaper accounts. The book cannot be surpassed in barbarity. The book is a timely contribution to current literature. PICTURES OF SWEDISH LIFE. Pictures of Swedish life; or Svea and her Children. By Mrs. Woods Baker. Published by Holmberg-Holmberg Publishing Co. Chicago. This is a beautiful printed and elaborate book, loved for many years in the 'Land of the Midnight Sun'. The illustrations are charming and the characters are Swedish. The author writes at length on the simplicity of living which he has experienced and tells us that the strength of this people lies there. 'The sons of the Swedish nation are accustomed to habits of life most simple and unpretending.' The name of the author shows still further the rule of simplicity of these people and Swedes are extremes met. The highest and lowest have none. Oscar II is simple. The humblemist farm laborer is but Anders or Axel, while his wife is simply a humble wife. The humblemist has attained distinction even in ordinary callings he may have a title or a carter or a Carpenter Erickson. 'The book is quite an excellent addition to the literature of travel. THE MYSTERY OF MURRAY DAVENPORT. The mystery of Murray Davenport. A step of New York at the Present Day. By Robert Nelson Stephens. Illustrated by H. C. Edwards. Boston: L. C.

He aims to reproduce the bustle and excitement of his customs. The well-appointed flat, the boarding house, the hotel, the pseudosocial side neighborhood are all recognizable.

The reception in the afternoon was under the guidance of Anthony Park. The house had been attractively decorated with flowers, while about the porches and grounds were hung a large number of Japanese interiors, with a large number of plants from the still unfinished lawn and surroundings. The large screened porch was used as a reception booth where light refreshments were served during the afternoon. Many from both St. Paul and Minneapolis availed themselves of the opportunity to visit the building, where many of the people who are in the home at present escape a share of the attention, until it was judged that infantile endurance had best not be tried Evening Program. D. R. Noyes presided at the evening exercises. The large parlor, dining room which adjoins, and the long hall were crowded with visitors from the Twin Cities. The program opened with a prayer by Rev. H. H. Hart of Chicago. After a few introductory remarks by the chairman, a history of the society since its organization in 1889 was given by Rev. E. P. Savage. He said that 1,950 children had been under the care of the society and good homes had been found in different parts of the state for most of them. There are at present about 500 children under the supervision of the society besides the few in the receiving home itself. The average length of time passed in the home by each child, he said, is only about two months. The expenses of the society last year were $13,000 and may be $15,000 for the coming year. Rev. H. H. Hart superintendent of the school. He was a strong advocate of the advantages of the work done by these schools. Defective Page Building and Furnishings.
