THE APPEAL KEeps IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1- It aims to publish all the news possible. 2- It does not impartially, wasting no words. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. RELICS OF THE CROSS OF NAZARETH IN AMERICA. Well-Authenticated Fragment is in the Cathedral at New York—Archbishop Ryan Tells of Pains Taken to Investigate Relics. That well-authenticated relics of the true cross of Nazareth are treasured in New York is not generally known. It is, however, a fact. The cathedral authorities have long possessed one of the largest pieces of the true cross in this country. It is a mere splinter, not much larger than a fabric needle. In speaking of the matter, Dr. Marvin C. Hale, the cathedral said, "When Mark Twain, in his 'Innocents Abroad,' made the assertion that he had found enough relics of the true cross to build a ship, he made a most ridiculous blunder and betrayed an almost unpardonable ignorance." The reliquary which holds these sacred reliquies is usually from 12 to 18 inches high. The precious specimen is rarely more than a mere thread of wood. It is placed in a large ostensorum, in order that the multitude may, on occasions when the relic is displayed, be able to distinguish its position upon the altar. The cathedral cherishes was brought to this country by Cardinal McCloskey. Before this one or the other priests had, as his private possession, a small relic of the cross. Archbishop Hughes also possessed one of these tiny treasures. The relic at the cathedral is incased in a costly jewel studded reliquary, standing about 14 inches high. It shows ancient Roman repouse work in gold and silver. It is brilliant with diamonds and sapphires. In the center of this ostensorum is a small medallion, covered with bevelled lines showing beneath an ivory cross of exquisite workmanship. Set in the center of this is the relic of the cross of Nazareth. $^1$ Cardinal Gibbons has a piece of the true cross in his pectoral cross. Upon being requested to give his opinion as to the authenticity of these relics of the passion, he replied: "As far as we can judge, we have every reason to believe in the genius of the relics which are present in Rome, particles of which have been distributed in almost every part of the Christian world. Archbishop Ryan, who has gone more deeply into the study of this subject than any other prelate in this country, has said: "Every Christian, of no matter what creed, can appreciate the veneration in which we hold the relics of the Savior. Even as the Christian has to have the Christians in all countries held in reverence relics of the Nazarez. "The true cross has been an object of especial veneration ever since its discovery, in the year 326, by Empress Helena. Many pieces of it have been distributed among the faithful, but these have not been larger than a small strand of hair. Thus a small piece of the wood affords thousands of dollars." "There is a congregation of canons appointed to investigate sacred relics and authenticate them. It is one of the most difficult things in the world to obtain such authentication. The seal of the church is never given to doubtful relics. There are, however, a great many duly authenticated relics." Archbishop Ryan has a small portion of the true cross. The Franciscan in New York have a relic of the crown in a small silver case, which is kept in the part of the monastery reserved to the monks. The abbey of Gethsemane, in Kentucky, treasures as its most valued possession a relic of the cross. Two splinters are laid in cruciform on an ivory disk. This is covered with a crystal and placed in the abbey. This intention staff was the life work of a Traplist monk at the abbey. SMALL BOY KNEW HIM But the Identification Was Not Entirely Satisfactory. A Duluth attorney recently went East to visit his old home, and the first Sunday he was there he attended church. After service he visited the Sunday school and saw many familiar faces among the pupils, although they had all grown considerably during the years he had been away. A superintendent the visitor addressed the school, and in opening he asked if there were any present who remembered him—who had ever seen him before. The hand of a little fellow in the front row immediately went up. "I do—I do!" he said. A satisfied smile crept over the face of the visitor. He was glad that the children remembered him. "Now, where was it you took me before, he asked the boy who had resisted?" he replied the youth, enthusiastically. "I'd never forget your face."—Duluth News-Tribune. The Youngster's Knowledge. A teacher in an English school has her pupils write five-minute essays on common subjects. Here is one of the essays on "Wind": "There are four winds, north, east, south and west, but sometimes two of these blow at the same time, and then we get a southwest or northwest wind." At another young Britton was as follows: "The Irish were conquered by the English in days of old and have been annoyed about it ever since." CHOSE THE LESSER EVIL Professor's Unflattering Comment or Students' Literary Effort. Charcellor James Roscoe Day of Syracuse university, who has recently come out with a defense of hazing, is on terms of unusual intimacy with the students under him. Though Chancellor day, after his graduation from Bowdoin, served a long term in the Methodist ministry, his manner has remained always simple. Young men have always found him easy to apach—a humorous, sincere, delightful friend. It is said that at Syracuse, not long ago, two under-graduates, on a wager, wrote epitaphs upon each other in verse. With these epitaphs when they were done, the young men presented themselves before the chancellor. The elder of the two said, indicating the other: "I wrote a rhymed epitaph on him, sir, and he has written one on me. We would like you to read these epitaphs and decide which is the better." The chancellor with a slight smile took the two effusions, and read them carefully. Then he laid, them side by side on the desk before him, and after a little thought said: "Both are bad. They are both extremely bad. Therefore, I prefer the shorter of the two." FRANCE AND THE PEANUT. American "Goober" Becoming Popular in That Country. Can it be that the hot roasted peanut is destined to be to France what the baked bean is to Boston? Strange things have been unearthed by the state department, but none stranger than that the Yankee's pet fruit is rapidly becoming the Frenchman's perpetual delight. The American "goober" has already been introduced to French vaudeville theaters and opera houses, and the latest advices declare that it is successfully holding the fort against all comers. The floors of popular restaurants are carpeted with the shells, and the walks in the public grounds are speckled with the shucks. Marseilles alone consumed 10,000 bags of the American dainty and loudly called for more. The merry note of the rooster's whistle is heard on the street corner, and every day is circus day over there. There seems, as a plebian producer from Africa is having the audacity to question America's supremacy as the peanut country of the world. It is cheap, this African peanut, and on that score it appeals to a frugal and indiscriminating public. IN THE SAME OLD WAY. Minister Found Little Change in Doings at His Alma Mater. An old minister returned to his alma mater after forty years of ministerial service, and was being conducted over the old place. "Same old corridors!" he giclaped at the entrance; "same old corridors!" Them he dining to the dining hall. "Ah, me! same old dining-hall!" Then he opened a study door. "Same old study!—same old study!" Half round the fire a screen was drawn, and behind it he saw a student talking with a young lady. "Dear me!" exclaimed the old minister, p恳恳, "same old practice! same old practice!" The student sprang up, indignantly. "Excuse me, sir, this is my sister!" A smile broke over the ancient one's face. "Ah, and the same old explanation! same old excuse!" Of woodland roses and the morning's glow. For she was my best friend! The words she said In prayer each night beside my trundle I still recall; the pillow then she spread With such a touch that I no more can know!

And when I dwell upon the long ago Her smile to me is bright as the bow To those upon the flood; I miss it so. Now when the winds unbridled wildly blow And rains descend on my defenseless Old Adage Affirmed. Among several amusing incidents related by Judge Alfred C. Coxe of the United States Circuit court in a lecture delivered to Columbia students was the tale of a young lawyer who came before the Supreme court to argue a case in which he was both counselor and defendant. "I once heard an old French adage," he said, "which said that he argues his own case has a fool for a 'client'. Despite this, however, I propose that the defense, this case, as I know more of it than any one else." Then the young lawyer went on to offer his argument. Before he went back to his home in St. Louis he left word with a friend to notify him by wire as soon as the court's decision was handed down. A week k. er he received a telegram which read: "Old French adage affirmed."—New York Times. THE APPEAL. "HENDRIK HUDSON" DAY Movement in New York for Magnificent Tri-Centennial Celebration of the Discovery of the Hudson River—Proposed Bridge as Fitting Monument. A wealth of romantic interest surrounds the proposition that the city of New York and the public generally unite in a magnificent tri-centennial celebration of the discovery of the Hudson river in 1909. Capt. George H. secretary of the U.S. Tri-Centennial association, said: "Hendrik Hudson's achievements entitle him to a fitting monument, an enduring tribute that will ```markdown ``` be an object lesson to the youth of future generations.

As a matter of fact, the point about the scheme which makes it most interesting to folk in the region is the sight of in the pervidual discussion of the political side of the case. The proposed road is in the region where history began, for, as the accompanying map shows, the Bagdad railway will run straight through the district between the Tigris and the Euphrates rivers, which long have been identified as the original, Garden of Eden. Tarsus, the city of St. Paul, and Nineveh, to which Jonah was ordered (now known as Mosul), will be stations on the proposed line.

ROAD WILL RUN THE RITORY FAMED IN B something like 122 degrees in the shade. There is no question whatever that the prospects for a railway through this historically fascinating region would be decidedly bright could the country only be reclaimed from its present barrenness and made, as it was in Bible times, a land of plenty. And, strangely enough, a land of English engineer, Sir William Willcocks, who believes that it is possible to restore to this birthplace of mankind something like the marvelous system of canals and waterways which once it possessed, and to which all its former richness was due. In those days the Tigris river was dammed at different points, and its waters thus turned into immense irrigation canals which ran through the country. The greatest of these canals was the Tigris, and the structures never have dreamed of. It was over three hundred miles long and 130 yards BLACK SEA Angora MINOR Kizil NIA Cresci Marsah Altea Mardin Nisamah Mary Danaus Aleppo Bassam Euphrates Beirut Damascus Mazerib Jerusalem EXISTING PROPOSED Route of the Bagdad Railway. wide. The biggest canal in Egypt today is only sixty-five yards across. This great canal, the Nahrwan, and its fellows gave water to and fertilized all this region of Menopotamia, now supposed to have been the most wealthy and densely settled district the world ever has seen. The end of this prosperity came, however, when a terrific spring freshet destroyed all this wonderful system. The Tigris welrs were turned, the river forsook its old bed and the entire country was inundated. Ruin followed. Sir William Willocka believes that a canal system based on that swept away would rejuvenate the river in which corn, sugar, cane and cotton could be up the stream. He occupied the time making drawings of the vicinity. He came to anchor on the 12th, just below Riverdale—possibly at a point opposite the Spyuten Duyvil, holding friendly intercourse with the natives, who came out in canoes to inspect the big ship and trade with the sailors. Though born "Henry Hudson," and presumably in England the navigator ```markdown ``` identified himself completely with the Dutch government in this enterprise.

FELT SCALPING KNIFE HOW LIVING ENGLISHMAN LOST HIS HAIR. His Original Head Covering Now Scattered Over Two Contenants—Presence of Mind Saved His Life from the Murderous Redskins. There is a man living now in England who can tell how it feels to be scaled. His hair is now hanging in the public library in Omaha. That is, part of it is there. He has a fringe around his head still, and another part may still be on an Indian reservation, if the Indians are careful about protecting this sort. William Thompson, an Englishman, once in the employment of the Union Pacific railroad, the man whose hair is scattered over two continents. He is getting along nicely with a small remnant of his original headgear. Thompson was one of five men who went sent on a handcar out of Omaha in the early days of the Union Pacific to spice a telegraph wire. It was in August, 1867. The railroad only extended to North Platte. The rest of the trip to Denver was made by stage, and a perilous trip it was. There had been trouble along the line and the squad of five men were sent out to locate and remedy it. It was located near what is now Central City. It was discovered that the Indians had sent the wire, Scarcey had the linemen stopped their car and the men fired on by a party of Cheyenne Indians concealed in the prairie grass. The men returned the fire, but seeing that they were hopelessly outnumbered, took to their heels. Thompson was shot in the arm while running, and the next moment one of his pursuers knocked him to the ground by a blow with a tomahawk. He was stunned but not rendered unconscious. He had the presence of mind to feign death, and the Indian supposed that all that was necessary was to take his scalp. As to what follows, Thompson says: "With the definition of an expert, the savage his knife and made incisions around the top of my head. When he had cut the skin all around, doing it with great speed, he jerked the hair off. The sensation was just as if a red-hot iron had just been touched to my head." The Indian, in his hurry, tucked the scalp lock insecurely in his belt. That is why it happens to be now in the Omaha library. Thompson did not dare to move, and while he lay there pretending to be dead and suffering from his wound another Indian found him. He decided it would be little more difficult for the man's head which might as well come off, so he repeated the performance of the first and took off some more around the corners. In the meanwhile other Indians had placed obstructions on the track. From where he lay Thompson could hear the approaching freight train carrying government supplies. He could not flag it and he neared the engine crash into the obstruction. The next moment the train was a wreck, with the Indians firing on the train crew. Then began an urgent which the Indians found to hear, the Indians found whiskey, with which they proceeded to get themselves into a beastly state of intoxication. They rigged themselves up in calceos and woolens which they found on the train. Then they took the still living engineer and fireman and threw them into the furnace of the engine. When darkness came Thompson managed to crawl away. At Willow Creek he fell in with a sent party which had been out and by which he was taken to Omaha. He had no help in help lock which had fallen from the Indian's belt, and when he crawled away he picked it up—Chi cago Tribune. One on Dad. The father of the small boy was to make a speech at a public dinner. As it was his first attempt there had been a great deal of talk and flippancy about it in the family. When the important night arrived and the child and his mother were left alone the latter remarked: "I think father must be making his speech just about this time. I hope they'll applaud him." "Why?" asked the son. "Well, to encourage him." "Well, do they know he can't speak too?" - And from the clouds the crimson colors pass, Good-night, sweet day! The stars come on high. There was a "baptizing" in the creek near Fredonia, Kaa., the other day. One of the candidates was a girl of twelve years. As she went under the water she had her month open, and when she came up she was spittering as half choked people will. Then she was led crying to the bank and her mother seized her and shook her and spanked her before the whole crowd. And one cannot help wondering how much of the gentle act of sanctification the girl got between her choking and spanking—Kansas City $2.40 PER YEAR. Spirit of Harshness and Lordiness No Longer Tolerated. There is one good result of "an overcrowded profession," and of the sharp competition that exists among doctors in the rivalry for popular fame. It is the old-time spirit of harshness and lordiness, which sometimes degenerated into positive brutality. These characteristics were the natural products of an original boorishness, increased by success and a comparative monopoly of practice. It takes a gentlemanly mind not to be spoiled by the attitude of subservience on the part of patients in the pursuit of ordering by the physician in charge. ' in every large community there are still left specimens of medical Dr. Johnson, who from a ruder age have carried down a cross and commanding acerbity of manner that is now out of place and time. In one of our large American cities there is an example known far and wide. His loss of patience and seems rather to increase his churlishness. He seems to take a special delight in hurting the feelings of his patients by a perverse irascibility. A patient who was shocked by this manner in the very beginning of the examination suddenly stopped, and in a quiet manner asked the amount of the customary fee, paid it, and without a word walked away. There are better reasons, of course, against unintentional harm. It certainly no longer "pays" for physicians to be ungentlemanly—American Medicine. WAS TOO FAR BACK. One Occasion When Dr. Hall's Memory Was at Fault. Dr. John Hall, the late pastor of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church, was very proud of his memory for names and faces. Strangers wondered at his readiness in calling by name the numerous members of the Sunday School connected with the church. But one of the elders of his church tells of the doctor shown an evidence of his remarkable gift. "While Dr. Hall was taking his customary walk down Fifth avenue one morning," he said, "a young man stopped him, saying: "Good morning, Dr. Hall, I'm very glad to see you. Don't you remember me? "The doctor, after scrutinizing him for some second, replied: 'I must confess that I have no recollection of you, having seen you. Are you sure that you know me?' 'You answered the youth, and it's your daughter you don't recall me, for you officiated at an occasion of great importance to me. Why, you baptized me in Dublin twenty-one years ago.'"—"New York Times." COULDN'T "SHOW OFF" THEN. No Problem At All. John Burroughs, who has recently pointed out the scientific falsity of the "nature books" that attribute a quite human intelligence, and sensitiveness to wild animals is a student of the life of Benjamin Franklin, and has at his tongue's end a number of Franklin stories that are but little known. According to one of these stories, a Philosopher neighbor of Franklin said to him one day: "I keep a barrel of beer in my back yard," and unprincipled persons climb the fence at night with pails and pitchers to rob me. It is necessary for me to keep the beer in this yard; I have no other place for it. Can't you devise for me, then—since you are so clever—some way of preserving my beer from these things." Franklin, "is this. Beside your beer, you must put a cask of fine Madura. Keep this cask full, and I'll warrant that as long as you do so your beer will remain untouched." The Midnight Hour.

The Tennessee Jim Crow car law providing separate compartments for Caucasians and Afro-Americans in street cars has been declared unconstitutional by the state supreme court. The court did not go into the merits of the law but decided to test unconstitutional because its caption was not explicit enough and did not state what portion of the old law it was sought to amend. The New Orleans Picayune in a recent editorial declares the President Roosevelt's "mimito policy" whatever most calamitous events in which widespread bloodshed will be frightfully prominent." Does the 'steamed Picayune' mean that the South is ready for another civil war? Representative-elect Hardy of Georgia will endeavor to make himself famous by introducing into the next Congress a bill for the repealing of the fifteenth amendment. The bill will be passed—into the pigeonhole of the committee's dest, there to sleep. It is probable that quite a large percentage of the Caucasian people in the world are predisposed to prejudice which exists here, really double prejudice, of soula under black skins. The wave of color prejudice which has been engendering the absolute undoing of one-seventh of the citizens of this land, by the denial of our own being made by the South to release all Afro-Americans, without regard to the practical or prudent skill of practical serdemond, makes "The Souls of Black Fok," by Fraser, to release of Fisk University, of Harvard University and of the University of Alabama and history at Atlanta University, one of the most striking books in in his forethought the author says: "Herein lie buried many things which if I were to tell you, the strange meaning of being here in the dawning of the century without interest to you, gentle reader, for the problem of the twentieth century is the problem of the I pray you, then, receive my little book me, forgiving mistakes and follies for sake of the faith and passion that is in seeking the grain of truth hidden there." "Easily the most striking thing in the history of the United States is the ascendency of Mr. Booker T. Washington. It began at the time when war was being fought, and he began a day of astonishing commercial development was dawning; a sense of doubt and despair was building. Then it was his leading began. Mr. Washington came in, and he began his psychological moment when the nation was a little ashamed of Negroes, and was concentrating his attention on dollars. His programme of industrialization and submission and silence as to civil and political rights, when he wrote to Washington, and had striven to build industrial schools and had striven to build industrial schools and had from the first taught various trades; and Prices and others had been the best of the Southerners. But Mr. Washington first embraced the ethosism, unlimited energy, and perfect faith into the programme, and changed his life. And the tale of the methods by which he did this is a fascinating study. After detailing the greatness of Mr. Washington in "The Greatest Man," he accomplished his aims and gained the co-operation of both the South and the North. "And yet this very singleness of vision and thorough oneness with his age is a though nature must needs make men marrow in order to give them power, unquestioning followers, his work has wonderfully prospered and are confounded. Today and stands as the one recognized spokesman of most notable figures in a nation of 70,000%." He says that among his own people Mr. Washington has encountered the strongest and most powerful of bittermen, and that there is among educated and thoughtful Americans deep regret, sorrow, and apprehension at the wide currency and ascendance the theories have gained. He continues. "Mr. Washington distinctly asks that we take care of our students, three things—political power; 2. insistence on civil rights; 3. higher education; 4. all their energies on industrial education; the accumulation of wealth, and one of their courageously and insistently advocated triumphants for perhaps ten years. As a result of this tender of the palm branch, there have occurred: 1. The disfranchisement of the Negro; 2. The legal creation of the Negro; 3. The steady withdrawal of aid from institutions for the higher training. "These movements are not, to be sure, direct results of Mr. Washington's teachings, but the shadow of doubt, helped their speedy accomplishment. The question then is, how can 10,000,000 men can make effective progress in economic lines if they are deprived of their exceptional ability, allowed only the most meager chance for developing their exceptional ability, and not given the answer to these questions it is an emphatic "No." And Mr. Washington thus faces the triple "The black men of America have a duty to oppose the oppression of a forward movement to oppose a part of the work of their greatest leader.

By every civilized and peaceful method, he must strive for and accustom himself to accord access to clinging unwaveringly to great words which the sons of the fathers would fail forget: "We hold these truths true; we created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among them are life, liberty, and justice." The writer is intensely in earnest, posing his appeal to the prejudice-bound people of the country, and he speaks for millions of them. He is a man of great courage, cordant note, and that is the adverse criticism of Booker T. Washington, Mr. Washington is not misunderstood by the learned professor, and that he does the great advocate of the arts. There is no contradiction between the Washington theories and the words of the author. The adoption of industrialism does mean the abandonment of any constitution. His speeches have Mr. Washington advised his people to give up their rights; he as always has advocated the accord and by the practice of industry and thrift to secure a firm possession of those accorded and by the practice of industry and thrift to secure a firm possession of those denied, which the acquisition of wealth will surely give. Let his speeches be, Mr. Washington, in one of his latest public utterances, an address delivered before the Brooklyn Institute of Arts and Sciences, among other The Negro has lived for over two centuries. He was a strong supporter of pulitrism, through the press and in school, in legislative halls and on the university campus. He was a strong supporter of the doctrine that the most complete development of each human being must be able to exercise the most complete freedom compatible with the freedom of others. He was a strong supporter of the reality had wrought into every fibre of his being a being of the highest quality, it is equally helpful and necessary to the well being of others. It is important to Henry, Give me liberty or give me death, should have had no influence upon the Negro. He did not have in him that which spurred him toward the acquiring of those qualities which the white man at the South nor the white man at the North nor the white man at the South nor the white man in his future. "Patiently, quietly, doggedly, persistently, through summers, through winters," he says by self-sacrifice, by forest, by honesty and industry, we must re- enforce约束, we must one house built, one home sweet and intelligently kept, one man who is the largest tax-payer in the school church maintained, one factory running successfully, one truck garden maintained, one church maintained, one factory well preached one office well filled, one life clearly seen, one abstract eloquence that can be summoned to plead our cause. Our patrons, through swamps, up through forests, up through the streams, the rocks, up through communities, the rocks, up through communities. "In connection with our presence in this country, it should always be our duty to be careful, we only were forced to come into this country against our will, but were brought to understand that we are both as slaves and as freemen, we have striven to serve the interests of this country as we built railways, tunneled mountains, grown the cotton and the rice, and built the houses. We have never disturbed the country by strikes, riotes or lock-outs. Ours has been "In the face of all this I cannot believe I will not believe, that a country should be made up of type of European, from the highest to the very dregs of the earth, and gives to it the highest encouragement, will refuse to accord the same protection and encouragement to it, and will have often said in the South: The Negro seeks no special privileges. All that he asks is imposed by the white man and applied to the one race be applied with equal certainty and justice when I say this, I repeat also that which I have said directly to the members of the South, that the nation in the South—namely, that any revised state constitution that is capable of an ignorant white man is concerned when an ignorant white man is justice nor the highest statesmanship. Now these new constitutions should place a white man in the races, and wherever they fail to do this, they are weak and are not accord with the South." "Though often beset behind and before, and on the right hand and on the left arm, they are often in armourmountain, I have the most complete faith in the ultimate adjustment of the arm, and we are heavily upon us. More and more, as a race, we are learning to exclaim on us, "The arm is high, the arm is high, their fur is mighty, but the Arm above them, and almighty, almighty." BAPTIST ANNUAL The American Baptist Year Book for 1903 has been issued by the publication society of that denomination at Philadelphia (paper, 25 cents). It gives full de- clinations, which include five of women and two of young people. The State organ- Mr. Curtis, however, writes in a natural way that he will not fail to remind us that Mr. Lincoln was a man of great character. These faults, however, serve as a striking contrast to the sublimity of his charisma, and he has been attained before his assassination. The illustrations are profuse and some of them appear for the first time in the biography of the Great Enamander's life. "Linecoln, the Leader of the Springfield Era," he describes, traces his intellectual development, from that of the average pioneer, upward and forward, to the striking power and force as to easily surpass in the logical presentation of his life, and is mentioned in institutions of higher education. "The occasion upon which Lincoln displayed unusual power as an orator was the organization of the Republican party early in 1855. Never was an audience more important to him than this organization. The Convention, which was composed of former members of all political parties, and taken extreme grounds against slavery, and had launched a new political organization, which was vicious and hostile elements. Those who had watched the proceedings were anxious and alarmed, and Lincoln, with his acute political perceptions, realized the danger, perhaps more keenly than any other man of the group of earnest, zealous, sincere men; willing to make tremendous sacrifices for the same time most of their clung to their own theories and advocated their independence. He promised to defeat their common purpose. Therefore, when he arose in response to the great outburst of the great outster of Springfield, his soul was flooded with a desire and a purpose to harmonize and amalgamate the patriotic forces. Those who were present say that at first he spoke to me, and gradually he words grew in force and intensity until he swept the discus, and with his breath he "arose from their chairs with pale faces and quivering lips and arms him". His influence was irresistible. --- THE REAL BENEDICT ARNOLD. The Real Benedict Arnold. By Charles Burr Todd, author. (New York: HarperCollins; illustrated. net. $3. New York: A. S. Barnes & Co.) We seem to be seen with the front of the stage just now. --- This book is admirably adapted for botanical work in the field, and it is not of no expensive equipment. It is based on observation, and in this respect meets the purpose of accurate observations, and from them to deduce safe conditions for plant life. Then it considers the conditions of plant life, then the essential organs of the plant are described, and their features of plants as they relate to their surroundings—ecology, full and complete to meet the needs of secondary schools. The little book contains much valuable information. --- Another soldier. A second is "monstrous tall and brown, but has a certain courage and conviction, very agreeable." And then.

Elder Edgar M. Meyer $160 San Francisco. This is a volume of modern philosophy, and it is one of the most famous, famous by Jerome K. Jensen, Mr. Burgess says many clever things in his book, and one may glance at any chapter and see that it is in a very uncommon manner. "The book is one of the most contagious of diseases, and its moral constitutions never succumb, but once an epidemic begins it is hard to resist," he says. "The page is well nigh irresistible. Tell your secret, then, broadcast, and let it have its effect." He confides it to her who asserts she never has a seeded soil in the ground, it will germinate and flower long after you have fortified it, and bring forth fruit never planted." He also took and must be used with care. It is not everyone who has the tact to decide at a glance just how much his veltim will accept. The author treats art, science and literature with a critical, criticism, and withal, with so much of the material to render the book of mutual interest. ```markdown ``` THE SPOILSMEN.

It may be all well enough to “know thyself,” but if you are wise you will not boast of the acquaintance. Weigh your friends in the seale ot prosperity and they will be found wanting—to borrow your money. No matter how many cookbooks a bride owns, she keeps right on cook- ing things the way her mother taught her. ‘The wise man adrottly tries to con- ceal his ignorance, while the fool awk- wardly attempts to display his know- ledge.

K. Bond in the Booklovers’ Maga- sing: Preacher's Witty Sermon. ‘The old Bridewell burying ground, which is now the subject of legislation in the English Parliament, is the rest- ing place of Mme. Creswell, so often mentioned by the Charles I. dramat- ists, who died in Bridewell prison, and left’ £10 for a sermon to be preached at her funeral, on the condition that nothing should be said of her but what was well. The preacher got out of the difficulty rather neatly by saying: “AN that I shall say of her is this: She was born well, she lived well and she died well; for she was born with the name of Creswell, she lived in Clerkenwell and she died in Bride well.” House Made of Glass. 4 Glass houses of a very substantial Kind ean now be built.

BL Hixon, proprietors of the Afro-Ameri- can news office and shoe shining par- lor at 3104 State street, deserve much credit for the. energetic, manner in which they have conducted’ their busi- ness. All the Afro-American papers are on sale there, besides cigars, can- dies, bootblack supplies, an artistic shine and good treatment from pro- prietors and employees. Lawyer Taylor, who will be the first Afro-American graduate of the North- western University, has spent as much as seven years in study at the big ‘Evanston colleg2 and is regarded as one of the most capable men in the senior class, Mr. Taylor lives at Aus- tin, Texas, and after his graduation expects to become an instructor of mathematics in the Atlanta University. Although several afro-American stu- dents have gone as far as the senior year, Mr, Taylor is the first to have carried his studies through to the end. The June Rose concert, given under the management of The Organ Miteil- lumination Chapel, Monday, June 8th, was a grand success. The church was crowded to the doors and all seeméd to enjoy the splendid pro- gram. The young lady ushers were handsomely dressed. The young la- dies of the Orpheus Quartette seemed to suffer from stage fright and did not do themselves justice in their num- bers on the programme. Attorney General Hamline promises the public that not only will the re- cent brutal lynching at Belleville be thoroughly investigated, but he prom- ises that there will be indictments and convictions. He advises that the case be allowed to come up at the regular term of court next fall, and gives posi- tive assurance that in the interim there will be ample evidencesecured to bring about convictions of some if not, all of the murderers. He claims, and doubtless rightly so, that, with’ the- present feeling in St. Clair county, it would be impossible to convict the fiends who, disregarding all law, after the manner of savages murdered and then mutilated the remains of a hu- man being. ‘The Attorney General will be expected to make good his promise. ‘Thursday evening was a gala night at the Appomattox Club, the occasion being the presentation to the club by Hon, Robt.

Davis spoke on “Phe Chaiacteristies of Linz3mn.” Having known President Lincoln inti- mately, Mr. Davis was well equipped to handle his subject. The attend- ance of club members and friends of the organization was large. Hon. Kobt. T. Lincoln and other prominent citizens, were present. Music and luncheon were features of the even- ing's entertainment. At a citizen’s meeting held at the Institutional Church Tuesday evening it was decided to invite Hon. W. D. Crum, President Roosevelt's appoint-| ment’ to Collector of the Port of Charleston, 8. C., to visit the city and| deliver an address, This step was taken as a mark of ap- preciation of the recognition of the race by the president, and to show to Mr. Crum that the Afro-Americans of Chicago are with him in his fight fo confirmation.
