The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. DUE TO BRAIN WORK CAUSE OF GRAY HAIR ON PROFESSIONAL MEN. Thinkers May Properly Be Divide Into Three Groups—Heredity Also Is a Factor—Science Has a Ready Explanation. Everything physical being equal, it is established that the man who is engaged in professional work will grow gray sooner than will the man who earns his bread by the literal sweat of his brow. Thus by implication the man who has more and harder brain work than another—more worries, more troubles, more difficult thoughts, less intelligibility, this is the individual and the profession that soonest are marked by gray hairs. "But who shall decide which is which?" asks Dr. I. N. Danforth, who has made a study of both bald and gray heads. "The doctor and the lawyer and the minister and the business man and the whole category of men going to go, on record as being the victims of the hardest possible occupations. "Thus far, however, one may be certain: in the professions generally there are three groups which may be taken up as suggestive of the manner in which heads grow white. First of these are the representatives who are on the outskirts of even moderate success of life. They have the burden of living more than the burden of ambitions. They have to work harder toward making the end of things meet than they work toward attainment of their goals. Of the one of the class which get gray early even if there be no disposition on the part of their ancestry to become gray early in life. Just to the extent that they are susceptible to the worries and pinchings of life, to that extent they become gray and premature old. "Another class are the happy men They are capable, of bounded ambitions, and are content with the successes that come to men who bore with small augurs and learn well the philosophy of living for ease and comfort. They have horizons that are wide enough, they have learned to avoid cares, and between working and living they grow gray; you will see them long after the allotted span of life scarce any gray hairs and with small trace of baldness. "That third type of professional men belongs to the top of the professional ladder the world over. Their brains are filled with surging ideas; there is no rest for the gray matter within their skulls; before blood nutrition can get to the hair it is cut off and subverted to the use of the brain until the logical result of years of training is greater gray matter at all. There is a disposition to hold instead of grayness, but in many ways the two conditions are brought about by the same causes. "In general the man who thinks will be gray before the man who works without thinking. To the extent that the thinker fails to take exercise, is sedentary in his work and habits, and allows his system to lapse in tone, just to that extent he will be come prematurely gray. "As a factor in grayness, however heredity has more to do with it than anything else. In my own family everybody had been in the habit of getting gray or bald at 40, and as a result I am a good deal of both." Logically and naturally gray hairs may be expected to appear on the temples at 35 or 40 years old. Brown Sequard is an authority for the statement that the first of these gray hairs turn white in a night. His observation is based upon the white thread that appeared in his own beard. Look in the ing in the one morning, he is dressed in a single white shirt not there the night before. He not only pulled it out, but before going to bed again he made a careful search for other white hairs. Satisfied that none was left, he went to sleep again, only to find that while he slept two other gray hairs had turned white in the same area where he had marked the first. In this way Dr. Brown-Sequard becomes to an extent sponsor for the story of the man whose hair turned white in a night, caused from fright This is the story which dermatologist Dr. Brown has whited at which at the same time has been or a much stronger footing than any thing in the line of ghosts, sea serpents or mermida—Chicago Tribune. "The other day I was out of town," said a smart churchman in Broad street, "with my rector. We stopped for dinner at a farm hotel, if you know what that is. When we saw down to the repast it was about the worst I ever saw, and my spiritual diRECTor agreed with me. In fact, it was too much, for me, and I simply balked. But the rector laded to, and was evidently relishing it when I said to him in the language of Paul to the Ro mme." "Let not him that catch despise him that eateth not." "Whereupon the rector, who was quicker in the Book than I, resulted: "Whereupon the 'rector, who was quicker in the Book than I, replied: "And he that doubtbeth is damned if he eat—same chapter Paul to the Romans." "Before I could command my tongue I had said, 'Till be damned if I eat! He had the best of me according to St. Paul, but I had the best of hhr according to the way I felt."-New York Herald. HUMMINGBIRD IS A FIGHTER. Though Tiny, Its Buzzing Prowess is Feared by the Sparrow. Although the English sparrow has managed in large measure to banish from its haunts many larger native birds, and even the courageous little wren, there is one smaller bird of which it is afraid. This tiny but formidable enemy is the hummingbird. The familiar principle of physics that the striking power of a body in motion is equal to its weight multiplied by its velocity is the secret of the hummingbird's superiority over the sparrow. The hummingbird's weight is small, but its speed is high, and its buzzing haste has genuine terror for its larger enemy. The uneasy cries of a sparrow attracted the attention of an observer the other day, who presently discovered the sparrow sitting well up in a pine tree. Just within a foot of the frightened bird buzzed a hummingbird, its misty aerial and keen beaks suggesting a tiny aerial ram in flight and bent upon puncturing some greater craft in the air. The sparrow stood its ground until the beak seemed about to pierce its breast, and then took flight, with the angry little hummingbird in foot purge, bringing the bird soon returned, apparently having given up the chase, possibly because it had driven the enemy far enough from the nest. —New York Sun. HE KEPT HIS VOW. And Apples in One Farmer's Orchard Were 'Free to All. The late R. H. Stoddard used some times to narrate a striking experience that befell him during a walking trip in New England. "During this tour," he said, "I came one August afternoon, to an apple orchard on the outskirts of a village, and on the fence I saw a placard inviting travelers to enter and partake of the inviting fruit within. I ate an apple or two, and then received the owner and his barn. He was an intelligent young man, and I asked him why he was so generous with his apples. "I'll tell you, sir," he replied. "When my father was a boy, he had to walk, one summer, a matter of 200 miles, working out his meals as he traveled. There was a certain apple orchard that he came upon, and an apple that had fallen from one of the trees lay in the road. He picked it up and was about to eat it. But the farmer had perceived him, and he ordered him to put the apple back. My father obeyed, of course, but he told the man that he was mighty with his fruit, and he planted a hundred apple trees for the free use of travelers exclusively. Fortune went well with my father, sir, and this is the orchard that he planted. All the fruit here will be free always." Willie Winkles' Win. Little Wille Winkle was a very bad boy Everybody said.

JUST WANTED TO WARN HIM. Doorkeeper Feared for Safety o Member of Parliament. One day Sir Algeron West, a well-known member of parliament from London, was observed by one of the doorkeepers talking to a gentleman who had a rasping, raucous voice and a demonstration, excited manner. While the conversation was in progress Sir Algeron received the card of another member of parliament and an intimation that its owner wished to see him. "Sorry, I'm engaged," was the answer. Next moment up came another card from a well-known peer. Again an apology was returned. In another minute the doorkeeper came carrying a huge card and saying that the lord mayor and sheriff of London wished very urgently to see Sir Algeron. The latter excused himself from the gentleman with whom he was conversing; this was too important to resist. "There isn't nobody here," whispered the door keeper when he got the card side.

SHORES OF CAPE COD ARE STREWN WITH BONES OF WRECKED VESSELS bowhawk, Captain Johnson, from England, with colonists bound for Virginia, stranded on the shoals near Orleans and soon became a total loss. Another historic wreck was that of the British frigate Somerset, which stranded on Peaked Hill Bars, Nov. 2, or 3, 1778. The Somerset was one of the fleet of British men-of-war whose guns had stormed the heights (From the New York Herald.) Cape Cod extends directly into out the Atlantic, like a gigantic arm with clutched hand, bidding defiance to the mighty ocean for forty miles. Shifting sandbars parallel its eastern coast, the unnumbered sandy beaches from Monomoy point, at Chatham, to Wood End, at Provincetown, a distance of about fifty miles. Myriads of shoals lie along the coast, and unnumbered vessels have met their doom along its shores, which rightly bear the name "ocean graveyard." The shores of Cape Cod from Monomoy to Wood End are literally strewed with the bones of once stanch craft, while unmarked graves in the burial places in the villages along the coast mutely relate the sad tale of the sacrifice of human life. There is no record of the disasters previous to the establishment of the United States Life Saving Service, in 1872, other than mention in town records and histories of the dates and circumstances of the most memorable or those attended with great loss of life. The first shipwreck on Cape Cod of 1626, when the historic ship Searn FIRST WRECK ON CAPT. GOD, 1620. THE SEABORNE WRECK ON THE SEA rowhawk, Captain Johnson, from England, with colonists bound for Virginia, stranded on the shoals near Orleans and soon became a total loss. Another historic wreck that was of the British frigate Somerset, which stranded on Peaked Hill Bars, Nov. 2, or 1, 3787. The Somerset was one of the fleet of British men-of-war use guns, which were of the Hill and terrorized the commerce of the colonies. She was at anchor in Boston harbor the night Paul Revere made his famous ride. When she met with disaster she was in pursuit of a fleet of French ships which were reported to be in Boston harbor. The Somerset had been at anchor in Provincetown for some years before there a foul date before she was lost to go in search of the French ships. She struck Peaked Hill Bars during a northeast gale, while trying to round the cape and enter the harbor at Provincetown. She had a complement of four hundred and eighty men and is supposed to have carried sixty guns, thirty-two, twenty-four and twelve pounders. She struck on the bars with terrific force, and instantly the seas began to pound her to pieces. She was finally thrown up on the beach by the tumultuous walls of water, and Captain Aurey and the few of the crew who had not perished reached the shore. The bones of the Somerset remained buried for a century, when the shifting sands expelled them to view, and the carrying carried away nearly all of the wreckage that could be obtained, and the shifting sands have again entombed what remains of the famous old frigate. The most appalling disaster in the history of the life-saving service on Cape Cod was the wreck of the iron ship Jason on the bars at Pamet river, Dec. 5, 1893. Twenty-four lives were lost. The ship was bound from Calcutta, India, for Boston, with a cargo of jute. Captain McMillan, who was in charge of the ship, had a crew of twenty-four men, including an apprentice, Samuel J. Evans, of Raglan, England. Thick weather prevailed off the coast for several days preceding the disaster, and Captain McMillan, not being in possession of reliable information as to his position, obtained it from a New York pilot boat. When about one hundred miles off the coast he unfortunately shaped his course to the westward for the purpose of raising some landmark. When the Jason approached the cape the wind was blowing a gale from the northeast, and the atmosphere was thick with rain, which soon turned to rain. The Jason was on the shore at Naustet first saw the Jason, and word that a ship was in dangerous proximity to the cape was sent along to all the life-saving stations. The Jason was last seen just before 5 o'clock by the day patrol of the Naustet life-saving station. The life-savers knowing that she could hardly weather the cape, kept a sharp lookout for her, and at all stations the horses were hitched into the beach carts and the boat was to the assistance of the ship without a moment's delay. Nothing was seen or heard of the doomed ship up to 7 o'clock in the evening, and the life-savers hoped that she managed to work off shore or around the cape. At 7:30, however, Honey, a surfer of the Panet and shouted, "Hopkins (the north patrol) has just hurried his signal!" 120 moment later Hopkins rushed into the station and reported that a ship the Jason) had struck on the bars about half a mile north of the station. Rich, the keeper, and his crew were ready for the emergency, and, with the beach cart, rushed to the scene. The shore was then plied with wreckage, and the slating of the sails of the shipwrecked soot boat, the roar and the noise. A careful lookout for the shipwrecked sea-farers was kept by the light-savers as they hurried to the scene of the disaster, and Evans, the sole survivor, was found clinging to a bale of jute. He was clad only in his underclothes and was totally helpless. The wrecked vessel was sighted through the storm and a shot promptly fired over the craft, but the crew was able to escape the shipstruck, and the efforts of the life-savers were of no avail. The ship (it was afterward learned from young Evans) broke in two when she struck the bars and the members of the crew perished soon after. Evans said that as soon as the ship struck he put on a life preserver and took to the rigging. The captain ordered the boats launched, but they were smashed as soon as they struck the water. With a c'ing to rigging, conquering the shore, conquering the shore, Evans says that he must have been hit by a big wave or wall of water, as the next that he knew he was on the beach and the life-savers were taking him to their station. The bodies of twenty of the crew were found and buried in the village cemetery at Welfell. The schooner Job H. Jackson was another terrible wreck that occurred on Cape Cod, at Peaked Hill bars. The schooner struck on Jan. 5, 1895, during bitter cold weather, and the crew were driven into the rigging. A fearful sea was pounding on the shore, and it required the combined hurricane. Defective Page lean efforts of the Peaked Hill bars, Race Point and High Head life-saving crews, with their lifeboats, to rescue the imperiled seafarers, who were badly frostbaited and helpless what taken from the wreck. The vessel became a total wreck. The schooner Dian B. Fearing, which became a total loss on the bars off Welfsella struck there during a thick fog on May 6, 1896. The lifesavers rescued the crew, and as the last man jumped into the firefall with the boat and the sea soon completed the work of total destruction. On Sept. 14, 1896, the Italian bark Monte Tabor was wrecked on Peaked Hill bars during a furious northeast gale. The disaster was attended with the loss of five men, whose deaths were involved in circumstances of mysterious and almost romantic interest. Three were suicides, while the manner in which the other two persisted could not be certainly explained. The bark hailed from Genoa and carried a crew of twelve persons, including officers and two boys. She had a cargo of salt from Trapani, island of Sicily, for Boston. The craft had been struck by a hurricane on Sept. 9, and when of Cane Cod, endover HOW THE ROCKY TROLL LOOKS AT THE SEA ting to make the harbor of Provincetown, she struck the dread Peaked Hill bars. She was promptly discovered by one of the life-savers and assistance was quickly at hand. The night was pitch dark, the surf extremely high and the bark was soon pounded to pieces. As the life-saving crew could not locate the wreck to bring the breeches buoy apparatus into use, and the surf prevented them from launching, the crew should do as to assist the shipwrecked crew. It is believed that the captain was so humiliated by the loss of his vessel that he fell into a frenzy of despair, and resolved to take his own life, and it would appear that other members of his crew followed his example of self-destruction. Six of the crew managed finally to reach the shore on top of the cabin and were pulled out of the surf by the life-savers. Another, a boy, said that he swam home. An investigation of the Italian command closed that the captain committed suicide. While lightships mark the sunken rips off the coast of Cape Cod, and lighthouses stand as a warning to all vessels that navigate the waters there, the shifting sand bars continue to levy a tribute on all shipping around the right arm of Massachusetts, as Cape Cod is called.

Why Mr. Brown Quit Complaining About the Baby. It is a good story, and Mrs. Brown had to tell it—confidently. Then it leaked, until Mr. Brown himself heard of its true inwardness, and since then he has found no fault with his crying baby. "Charlie (that's Mr. Brown) was awfully annoyed by the crying of our dear little Tommy," said Mrs. Brown, "and the fact is that his complaining was harder to endure than the baby's howls. Finally I had an inspiration. "One morning, at the agonizing hour of four o'clock, Charlie was awakened by a most unearthly baby yelling and screaming, and sat up in bed with a seat. "Can't you stop that baby? he demanded. 'Did you ever in your life before hear such a racket from a pair of lungs?' I don't think that there ever was a mortal, or an immortal, who made such an ersplitting, sleep destroying noise since babies were invented until this blessed moment.' "Yes there was, Charlie," I answered, quite calmly, 'and you were that very baby. I have prepared a lesson for you. You are now listening to your own voice.' "You are crazy!" he exclaimed. "You are quick!" I replied. "When you were the age of Tommy you were just such a howling terror as he is, and for future use your mother set up a phonograph to preserve your voice. She sent me the cylinder yesterday and you will find it in our grapho phone.' "He made no audible reply, but he did apparently mutter something under his breath, and then turned over the clock to sleep. He complained of Tommy's voice since there, and it has occurred to him that there was no such thing as a phonograph until long after he was a baby." SUPPRESSING THE YOUNG IDEA Wise Father "Explains" the Explosion of FireWorks Evidently he was the sort of man, who over his stein, would expatiate at length upon and settle to his own satisfaction such a phenomenon as the mountain which recently dropped out of sight in Japan, or that other one which blew up in Martinique. His life the son was watching with intense pleasure a display of bombs, rockets, candles and other aerial fireworks. Like most children, he had his fancies and outfits things. Presently he touched the coat sleeve of his father. The action was a timid one, but his dimpled cheeks were aglow with excitement. "Dey hits de sky 'wen dey goes up—dat's 'wat makes 'em bang, isn't it fahder?' he said. Are heaven and the sky ever very far from children? The little fellow's thought was natural and charming—with certain allowances, it was true. But he was not. "You've got no sense; the sky hasn't nothin' to do with it!" In all likelihood this man knew it the more about pyrotechnics than his tiny questioner; but he snapped out something about powder being in the rocket. "An 'en' it goes up it goes off," he said, putting a wad of tobacco in his wise mouth. "O-h!' cried the child disappointedly. He didn't ask any more questions. The father was content, but the child, what of him?—New York Press. Wanted the Dog's Place. Counselor M. A. Lesser says, that one of the most pathetic pleas he ever heard was made out of court, and it was not delivered by a lawyer. One afternoon a fashionably dressed woman came spinning down Riverside Drive in an automobile. On the seat beside her was a small pet dog. A beautiful little girl in charge of a nurse was playing with a go-cart near the roadside. When the child saw the approaching automobile, she held up both hands and exclaimed: "Oh, mamma!" "What is it, my dear?" inquired the woman. "Say, ma." pleaded the little girl, looking rather enviously at the dog; "if Fido died would you take me out with you in the auto? I don't like always having to go in the baby carriage with Annie."—New York Times. Chinese and American Food. Chinese and American The food the Chinese is relied on is the Chinese rice it is generally cooked in a cleanly manner, and only choice meals, cut in small pieces, are used in it—pork, beef and breast of chicken and duck, with such delicate vegetables as young bamboo, mushrooms, celery and water nuts. The Chinese food is, however, very rich and heavy, and Americans rarely eat it except at night. The Chinaman's breakfast in America is very much like what the American's breakfast is. It generally consists of bread, milk and eggs. After breakfast the Chinese-American eats Chinese food, but for the morning meal he cannot stand his own cooking—Philadelphia Record.

Byron, Lamb, Dickens, Southey, and Even Sam Johnson Enjoyed the Companionship of Their Small Admirers—Oliver Wendell Holmes' Tribute. It is one of the most lovable traits in many of our greatest men that they are as skillful in winning the hearts of little children as in captivating the minds of their parents. Was there ever a great man who did not love children? If there was (and we have never heard or read of him), his greatness was by so much the less. Even Sam Johnson relaxed his grimness into smiles of pleasure when Boswell's baby daughter held out her arms to him and pulled his hair when he was not sufficiently attentive to her. Byron, whose own child life had been so saddened and embittered by a loveless mother, worshipped his little daughter Ada with all his passionate soul, and history has no sweeter picture than that of Souley singing his child to sleep as he paced the floor with his "little burden of love" in his arms. Lamb's great heart had many a warm corner for his child friends—all the heart, in fact, that his sister Mary did not fill; and when he took his wife, Elizabeth McIntosh was a signal for all the little children to fock to him for a kiss, a kip word, or (better than all) to take his hands or coat tails and accompany him on his rambles. It is little wonder that Charles Dickens, "the greatest hearted, one," was idolized by the little ones; for there never was a more entertaining companion or one who could better "make himself a child again" for their delight. There are many shald men and women of to-day who recall with pleasure and regret the romps they used to have with "Boo" in the famous nursery at Gad's Hill. Among great men of the later days Mr. Lewis Carroll must be counted "King of the children's hearts." That solitary, lovable "mixture of a man," who was wedded to mathematics and children, had few pleasures apart from one or the other. His study at Christ church was a perplexed sorrow, its carpets and cushions stuffed with joyful memories and all that applauds a child's heart; and here on a river pen, surrounded by swarms of his young friends, the mathematical professor was always a boy as full of fun and as ripe for mischief as the youngest of his guests. May his rest be sweet, this chief of children's lovers! Oliver Wendell Holmes, most amiable of "autocrats," was a lifelong lover of children, and could "skip back seventy years" at a moment's notice at a child's bidding. Could anything be sweeter than the letter he wrote acknowledging the photo of his girl friends? "May those lips," he wrote, "speak what is pure and true; may those ears hear but what is good; and may those eyes always mirror a soul as beautiful as themselves." Old Girl Graduates. If the likenesses of girl graduates now which make an attractive feature of many newspapers are true to the life and undoubtedly they are in most cases, doesn't it seem that those leaving the high schools have a remarkably mature look? In some instances they are not as knowing and wise as girls who really have seen that number of years are usually found to be in this sophisticated age. It seems rather curious, too, that such young girls should look so "finished", but it is probably just an evening up of things in their respective families, as their mothers and grandmothers are undoubtedly engaged in taking care of their children with years from five to twenty-five taken from their ages. We will record it as the result of an effort of nature to square accounts. The Fair Graduate. On the dimpled skirt! Frank L. Stanton, in Atlanta Constitution. Generous Donor of Bonds. Robert H. McCarter, the well-known New Jersey lawyer, who has been appearing as counsel for the Shipyard trust, tells this story to illustrate how worthless the bonds of a corporation sometimes become: The trustor was a trustee of Princeton college, the late John L. Blair of Baldwin informed the board of trustees that he was going to give the college many thousands of dollars' worth of the bonds of a new western railroad. There was rejoicing at Princeton college. Then the bonds came. The trustees discovered that the donor had cut off the coupons for the next forty years. Valuable Snuff Boxes. A snuff box offered for sale at Christie's realized only a few shillings short of £1,000. It was a Louis XVL gold box gold, by Jean Baptiste Cheset, and was made in Paris in 1765.

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN!** * "We ask Thee, Lord, that Thou wilt raishe up a man who will kill you, and damnable horay that this is a white man's country, and that damnable horay that this is a black man. Raishe up some widow's son, who is now in his wife's hands, saving the black slave of to-day saving the black slave of to-day but from the shackles of prejudice, and save the black race from his superulous contempt, from his degradation, and lift him from his superulous contempt, from his superulous contempt, from his followen framed in God's own image."— * "The pastor of Plymouth Hills, the pastor of Plymouth Church, Brooklyn, New York.* SATURDAY, AUGUST 8, 1903. Whenever the question of lynching Afro-Americans is discussed by white men they almost invariably endeavor to justify lynching by claiming it is necessary to protect white women. Every one knows that not one out of ten of the black men lynched is guilty of rape or attempted rape, or is even accused of these crimes. It matters not what crime a black man is accused of committing, he is just as much in danger of being lynched as if he had committed rape. The prejudiced mobs do not care what the crime is, nor if there is no crime at all, so long as the prospective victim for their brutal enjoyment is black. It does not depend upon the enormity of the crime with any mob, and really it does not mat- ter who the intended victim is nor what his color or nationality with a mob, though when the victim is black his color acts as a red rag does on a mad bull and makes the mob more brutal and bloodthirsty. Mobs are just like flocks of sheep, they follow their leaders blindly, and when cheated out of a victim by some means or another, they are just as likely to mob anybody who comes along or who may be suggested as a victim. And, when it is a black man they are after, if they cannot get him they will go and hunt up his wife or children or some other man and his wife and children. This proves that this plea of "protecting white women" is not the true incentive of the mob. Lynch law is wrong and ought to be abolished. Punish criminals as severely as you please, let the punishment fit the crime, but punish only the criminals and punish them legally, whether they be black or white. The hoodlums who attempted to break up the Booker Washington meeting in Boston last week will defeat their own ends if they continue along the same lines of lawlessness. If they have any arguments to present in answer to Mr. Washington's propaganda, they ought to present them in a legitimate way. They cannot hope to win by violence, any more than the mobocrats can. And as they are the greatest sufferers from mob violence, this ought to teach them a better lesson. Dr. Washington has the full and cordial support of the conservative people of both North and South, black and white, and the lawless spirit exhibited at Boston should be frowned upon and condemned as earnestly as that exhibited at Danville, Ill, and hundreds of other places. We are unalterably opposed to lawlessness in an individual or in the mob, and whether directed against an individual or a special class of persons, and all good, sensible people are. James Wilson, who attempted to assault Mrs. Burgess of Alvin, Ill., and who was the cause of the "race war" at Danville, Ill., July 25th, pleaded guilty at his trial on last Tuesday and was sentenced to a long term in the penitentiary. The whole proceeding occupied about two hours. This seems to be speedy justice, and the brute got what he deserved. He should have been punished and would have been punished, and as he was the guilty one everybody would have said amen; but the enormity of his crime was surpassed by that of the brutal mob that wreaked its vengeance on the innocent, guilty of no crime but being born black. If Wilson had been sentenced to death we would have said amen. But now that the law has dealt with him, we wait to see what it will do with the lynchers who murdered the innocent unoffending. law-abiding people. It seems that certain disorderly persons in Danville have been trying to foment more trouble. One man went to Alvin from Westville last Monday and advised the people there to send a mob to cooperate with another from Westville and other mining towns in another attack on the jail. The people of Alvin would have nothing to do with him, and similar attempts elsewhere were not successful. Among the resolutions adopted by the American Federation of Catholic Societies at Atlanta City, N. J., last Wednesday the first one condemned feuds, riots and mob law as unworthy of civilized people. Lynching is regarded as murder, and the burning and torture of people, even when clearly guilty, as barbarous and a menace to the peace and security of all good citizens. Brave Sheriff Whitlock of Danville, Ill., who defended the Afrc-American prisoners against the mob, has received hundreds of letters commending his courage from all parts of the United States. Danville Ministerial Association passed strong resolutions praising Sheriff Whitlock for his heroic stand. The New Orleans Picayune thinks that under existing conditions the United States is a paradise for Afro-Americanans. If this country is a paradise, many of the race would prefer to reside in hades. The greatest need of this country at the present time is a hanging under the forms of the law of some of the American mobocrats. Lynching is murder—murders should be hanged THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER SOCIAL LIFE IN THE EARLY REPUBLIC. Social Life in the Early Republic.

The commercial which identifies him as "T or 'Carpenter Erickson.' quite an excellent addition ature of travel. Within the last year or two there has been written a good deal of interesting articles about the life of the Republic and of the colonial period. Much of the matter that has been written is classed as standard literature. Of hastiness and ill preparation, and can hardly be classed as standard literature. "Social Life in the Early Republic," has written historically and well. This lady has written dealing with the men, the most strenuous period of development and evolution was not only well received by the public, but has looked forward with much expectation to the present volume, which may be termed exhaustive. This chapter on "A Social Evolution" carries one straight to the heart of the subject, little prologues or apologies which usually characterize works of this class. The little prologues and apologies with that politeness and delicacy of manner which renders the book a warrior, a warrior, who visited the principal cities of America soon after the Revolution, and who visited the Frenchman recorded that he discovered neatness without laxity, and that he visited be found more luxury and less neatness, in all of them. He was admitted to the Frenchman recorded that he frankly admitted that for beauty and conversational ability he was admitted with the rank of court in the Old World. In discussing the landed gentry of the Middle Ages, we were the English characteristics of the Southern settler more clearly shown than the English characteristics of the English chronicler writes of his countrymen: 400 horses that seemed almost tireless, and who were so strong that Reynard across the eastern peninsula from the Chesspeake to the Atlantic coast could move man-made mounts on the way, took more time than the pursuit of the fox and the whole expedition sometimes lasted. In a chapter on "Jeffersonian Simplification" when Mrs. Madison gave expression to her sweeping strictures upon Democrats, she must have had reservations on her expression. She was a great favorite. Indeed it was in consequence of her precedence to Mrs. Madison in a state dinner that he aroused the animosity of the White House. White House etiquette does not seem to have occupied Mr. Jefferson's mind, and either from carelessness or because of his defiant red-republicanism, he quite seems to have been a writer. The author writes interesting chapters on the politics, society and intellectual life of the early inhabitants of the Republic. ```markdown ``` THE STORY OF THE SLAVE Slavery in New Jersey Historical Society, Camden, N.J. Alfred M. Heston, Member of the New Jersey Historical Society This monograph is a recital of slavery and seduction. The act is brought out that slavery existed in American long before 1619 and that slavery is carried out by the cargo of human freight to Jamestown. The Aztecs in Mexico enslaved not only slaves but also enslaved nation who were convicted of their own nation and who were freed or introduced in New Jersey in 1898—at least that is the earliest recorded instance of the leading citizens engaged in the African slave trade. There is a record of a slave trade in the African coast always turned out well, leaving the carriages of a slave claim harbor in these words: "An overruling slave trade in the land of freedom another cargo of benighted heathen to enjoy the blessings of God." Perth Amboy was New Jersey's chief port of entry and had a large number, many of them freshly imported and still bearing their original $80. The system of white bondage, known as redemptive servitude, existed in New Jersey for the last seventeenth centuries. This form of bondage was usually voluntary, and at the expiration of their service, merged into the mass of white population without any special taint of servitude. Many white convicts, who were found to be cheaper than white servants, checked in a measure. Many white convicts were shipped to New Jersey from the British Islands, and were sent to New York. An act providing for the gradual abolition of slavery was passed by the state legislature in 1820 and still later another in 1848, did not bring about the complete abolition of slavery. The other act in 1820 and still later another were there but 18 in the entire state when Lincoln's proclamation was issued. In 1831, Lincoln issued a bill to a member of the state state legislature, and passed a bill which removed the slave last vestige of slavery in New Jersey. The little book contains much valuable information. --- Again: "Flattery is, however, an edged weapon. It is not everyone who has the tact to decide at once just how much his victim will hold. The author treats of art, science and life in a way that is critical, criticism, and withal, with so much of his interest to render the book of mutual interest." --- THE MYSTERY OF MURRAY DAVEN- T. The Mystery of Murray Davenport, A Story of New York at the Museum of Painting. Pressed by H. C. Edwards. Boston: L. C. Page H. C. Edwards. Boston: L. C. Page The scene is New York. The hero a dispoisoned and fortune has frowned upon him. Mr. Stephens is particular to seek the bustle and excitement of a familiar neighborhood. He sims to reproduce the bustle and excitement of its customs. The well-appointed flat, the boarding house, the hotel, the pseudo-friendly side neighborhood are all recognizable. The personages are generally commonplace. The "mystery" seems to be something to accept it for what it is worth we certainly will not quarrel with the manner of it, but by enough except the explanation when it comes. What it is the reader must learn for himself. TWO ON THEIR TRAVELS "Two on Their Travels." by Ethel Cohn $2.50. New York. A. S. Barnes & C. H. Barnes.

He wore a dressing the head boy he said with his slow Glasgow accent: "Whaur-did ye wear a rum?" The irony was, I fear entirely lost. It was the same commercial traveler who, a few months later, came to share a rather less poisonous drink unearthened from somewhere. "Thank ye, you," he said. "What did he believe as much as guilt for r-me." He then related how, feeling thirsty in the mid-afternoon, he drank what he believed to be about half a bottle of water. In the morning he discovered the water bottle, and the whisky bottle, and I thought, "What did he believe as much as guilt for r-me?" he remarked. He was in a very interesting manner scenes, people and places in the Philippines, the straits settlement, Japan, China, and other countries in the world.

By J. B. Lippincott Company. There are a few rare characters in history with interest with each succeeding generation, and which gleam brighter as time passes, and which endure with the generals of men and women who they were enviored. The characters are unique and original and bear striking analogies to each other—the most important of which is the character of William Elderly Curtis. They may be called the guide posts of civilization, and may be named as, Christ, John, and William Elderly Curtis the latter that William Elderly Curtis written under the title, "The True Abraham, knoxin." The Lincoln is always absorbing and full of human interest. The volumes which have been written about Abraham Lincoln—we have, however, read none of them which surpass in arrangement of literary content that William Elderly Curtis nil nisi bonum" has exerted such a profound influence on literature that light upon many of the eminent careers of distinguished statesmen and soldiers. It is, however, written in a manner that is not to remind us that Mr. Lincoln not to fall remind us that Mr. Lincoln these faults, however, serve as a striking contrast to the sublimity of the Great Emancipator's life. The illustrations are profuse and some of them appear for the first time in a history of the biography of the Great Emancipator's life. Those who were present say that at an age of 12, he was in monotone, but gradually his words grew in force and intensity until he swept the room with his sword and his hearsers "arose from their chairs with pale faces and quivering lips and his influence was irresistible. THE REAL BENEDICT ARNOLD. The Real Benedict Arnold. By Charles Burr. Todd. author of "The True Aaron." New York: A. S. Barron & Co., 12. New York: A. S. Barron & Co., 12. The "real" and "true" people seem to have the front of the stage just now, in many quarters that Benedict Arnold has not been fairly treated, that his servile nature has not been emphasized, that great fault was not over-emphasized perhaps, but unreasonably punished. Treason is the other great treachery to one's friend and is not to be condemned in any wise. There are other reasons why he explains the deed and modify the bitter condemnation. He invades Arnold's treason, Mr. Todd emphasizes his invaluable services to America, and shows conduct in the colonies. Colonies: first at the battle of Valour's Island on Lake Champlain (the first name of the colony) where they were engaged, where, by his desperate valor, he gave the Americans arms that they gave up their plan of invasion from the north that year. He invaded the harbour in the Mohawk Valley and putting to flight St. Leger's invading army garrison, by winning the two battles of Saratoga, which, conjoined, Cressey included as one of the fifteen deeds. Mr. Todd also shows that it was the influence of Arnold's wife and his fear of being taken away by the British officers be discovered, which induced Arnold to betray his country, and the British officers were not the calamities of paper generals—the motives generally ascribed. The book is an original and unique work, and it is the illustrations are interesting and instructive; especially noteworthy is the reproduction of an old print repre- As death drew near, it is said his mind wandered, and he was again in America, and he was in England, and his old comrades in arms. In a lucid interval he asked that his Continental uniform had to be adapted to the "Vulture," and which he had ever cherished, might be brought and put on him, with the comrades and sword-wielding which had given the bravest of the brave. "Let me die in my own unfortunate uniform in which I fought my battles. God forgive me," he added, "for ever putting on any other." PICTURES OF SWEDISH LIFE. Pictures of Swedish life; or Svea and her Children. By Mrs. Woods Baker. Borgelholm-Holmberg Publishing Co., Chicago. This is a beautifully printed and elaborately illustrated book for instructed or illustrated readers in the "Land of the Midnight Sun." The illustrations are expressive and the author writes a vivid life story. The author writes at length on the simplicity of living which the book emphasizes, and tells us that the strength of this people lies therein. "The sons of the Bible are accustomed to habits of life most simple and unpretending." In a chapter entitled "We are accustomed to habits of life most simple and unpretending," the rule of simplicity of these people and says, "With regard to the highest and lowest of the highest and lowest have none.

A story of Ward politics. By Elliott Flower. Author of "War Politics." $24. $24. Boston, L. C. Page & C. A story of municipal politics depicting a condition of municipality to be more of large cities. While no attempt has been made to describe particular locality, the political methods employed have been taken. The political methods employed have been taken to have served the public in some capacity or other, and some of the characters are literally true. The love interest centres around a sociologist, wealthy young man to enter the local campany to become a successful story which relates to the troubles and complications which follow the story of the municipal politics. THE WORTH OF WORDS. Some persons are correct as to grammar, others as to rhetorics, and others as to quite obligatory use may be quite offensive to the trained grammarian, the improper application of a figure of speech. There was a grocer who was very accurate in his grammar, and who did not use the language, and took some trouble to instruct them. One day a customer called and said, "What are you doing with Eggs and eggs?" "Darn glad to hear the last I got here were more than Eggs." "The Worth of Words." Dr. Bell attacks misused words, vulgarisms, and other bad language, but the manner, and many errors of speech which are often made by persons of intelligence may be corrected by a careful study of the book.

Bishop Grant said during the course of his lecture: “Every mab is a band of murderers, regardless of the class of which they may be composed. * * * To advise the Negro to go to Africa does him harm, ‘The climate is un- healthy and he cannot survive there. * © * It is fair to expect that the flag should protect its protectors. The Negro has been a good and brave sol- dier.” ‘The Bishop spoke interestingly of his visit to South Africa, and his tray- els through the dark continent. He said he had discussed a few years ago the Negro problem with Wm. E. Glgi- stone, England’s great premier. Solos were rendered by Madame De Leo and Mrs. McKinzie. | TENTH ANNUAL PICNIC.
