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. CRY THAT WON THEM CAPT. LYSAGHT KNEW MEN HE COMMANDED. Not Pleased at the idea of Fighting Fellow Countryman, the Emmett Guard Were There as One Man to Face the British Lion. A little party were discussing one day last week the Emmet anniversary. The conversation led one of them to relate the following reminiscence: "The first military organization I ever belonged to was the Emmet Guards," he said. It should be explained that he came from another state than New York. "Every member was a stalwart in physique and we were all young men. "Our captain was Dan Lysaght, a merchant of our town, who was one of the most popular fellows you ever saw. He was a patriot true, brave man and a believing in his soul that when Ireland was freed the Emmet Guards would be largely responsible for that blessed event. "We were the crack organization of the town and we always turned out, no matter what the occasion. We had just got our new uniforms and accountrements when the civil war broke out in this country. "We were a part of the State Guard, and our state was strongly Southern and the governor was a Secesh, we went into camp with the other militia of our town and country when the governor ordered us so to do. "Things were getting pretty hot, I can tell you, and the word was passed round that we would soon be called upon to take the oath of allegiance to the C. S. A. and to join Pa Price as the general of the Confederate Army. He was the marching on Lexington, where our countryman, Col. Mulligan, made his first gallant stand for the Union. "It was pretty hard, boys, for the Emmet Guards to think of going against Col. Mulligan, and the situation was discussed at our campfires. Naturally, there was a suspicion in camp that the Emmet Guards were not sound for Secesh, and the Colonel in command put up a job to test the Guards' mettle against a lightship. In the middle of the night the word was passed around that the enemy was upon us. When a courier aroused Capt. Lysage he tumbled into his uniform and went to every tent, and, shaking the flap of one tent, called out bravely: "Fall in, fall in, Emmet Guards! We are attacked!" "Would you believe me, not a man in captain's light was caraged. He was as passive as he was plucky, and the idea that the Emmet Guards would not turn out to repel an attack made him furious and white at the same time." "My God, men!" he said, 'what is the matter of ye.' "And still the Emmet Guards remained docile, on might say. Then Capt. Lysaight used a bit of strategy. Passing along the line of tents he called out. "Emmet Guards, awake and fall! Fall in, for the British lion is loose mongst ye!" "Ah, as Byron said of the heavy sound that broke up the revelry in Brussels by night, then and there was a hunt in the forest." Even Emmet Guards fell in and stood well to be led on. The colonel commanding heard of us, and then the word was passed that it was a false alarm, and the Emmet Guards went back to their bunks. "Did you join Price in the fight on Mulligan?" asked one. "Some of us joined Price, but not until after Mulligan had surrendered. The Emmet Guards would never have fought Mulligan, depend upon that. But the Guards were sworn to turn out on the hunt." But the oath that oath established our reputation as warriors in the old Secsch cann."—New York Sun. Quit Kicking Quit kicking, man. The world's not bad, man. I want to be the best.

Sperry celebrated their golden wedding; or, rather, the friends and relatives of the old couple gave them a surprise party in commemoration of that anniversary. Among the guests was Mrs. Irons, a professional lecturer, and she was chosen to deliver an address of congratulation. This she did in the highest style of the art, fairly making the air hum with sentiment and eloquence. After she had finished Father Sperry rose to reply "Well," he said, "me and mother are proud of all of you"—Kansas City (Mo.) Journal of re. HAD BUT ONE PERSONALITY. All Right Now, But What of the Future? At the recent launching in Philadelphia of the armored cruiser Pennsylvania, John D. Long, the former secretary of the navy, told an amusing yarn about a sailor. "I used to know," he said. "In my army, the sailor a sailor of a religious cast of mind. This sailor and a magistrate once took me fishing. "I had good luck and so had the sailor, but the magistrate's luck was very poor. He didn't get a nibble. During the time I hailed in eight fish and the sailor seventen, the magistrate's cork never so much as bobbed. He sat on the bank with nothing to say, smoking moodily. "Suddenly he hooked a tremendous fish—a five-pounder at least. Just as he and to land his sail his line broke. "He dashed down his pipe, and for several minutes he swore dreadfully. The sailor took him to task." "You ought to be ashamed," he said, "magistrate like you, one that's supposed to set an example, cursing and swearing like a street rowdy—before this here boy, too. You, a magistrate! "Oh, it ain't as a magistrate that I'm swearing. It's as a fisherman," says the other. "That's all right about that now, said the sailor, 'but in the hereafter, when the devil takes the fisherman, what will become of the magistrate?" THE FALL OF THE LEAF. How Thoroughly Nature Prepares for Her Off Season Dr. Andrew Wilson writes in the Illustrated London News: "The story of the fall of the leaf is an interesting one. It teaches us how nature prepares for her off season, in one respect at least. The vitality of the leaf is lessened. Its sap no longer suffices for its nourishment, and even if the vital fluid were supplied to the leaf its cells, worn out, are no longer capable of utilizing the nourishment afforded. Then comes a time when nutrition falls off. It is not demolished and nails are cut off the leaves. Changes ensecure in the structure of the leaf. We find a layer of corky substance formed between the leaf-stalk and the branch. Cork is always in plants, a tissue of low vitality; when it is fully formed it represents practically a dead substance. This layer, therefore, serves as the boundary line between that which is living in the plant and that which is dead or dying in the leaf. Then comes dryness, always fatal-to-plant tissues. The corky layer shows a line of demarcation which rapidly increases in thickness, finally the breath of the autumn winds causes the separation to be completed and the dead leaf falls to the ground." The Amber Industry. The other day it was reported from Prussia that, though the amber industry had been dull of late, the trade in imitation amber had been highly satisfactory. It now seems, smokers will be interested to know, that even the briar root pipe is not what it is supposed to be. The briar root of commerce is the root of the large growing heath. Briar in this connection is said to be a corruption of "bruyere" (heath). The briar root industry has had a somewhat curious history. First begin in the Pyrenees some fifty years ago, it traveled along the French Riviera and the Ligurian coast (taking Corsica by the way), and moved in the south. By the very nature of the business, when a certain district has been exhausted of all its roots, the industry must come to an end there. The Italian branch is not expected to survive more than ten years. An Early to Bed City In Vienna every man's home is practically his prison from 10 o'clock at night until 6 in the morning. The Austrian capital is a city of flats, and at 10 o'clock each night the entrance door of each block is locked. Any one passing in or out after that time must pay the concierge a fine, the amount of which is twopence up till midnight and fourpence from then till 6 in the morning. Going out to post a letter after 10 o'clock entails the payment of a fine, another for being let in, while prolonging a visit to a friend's after 10 o'clock would also involve two times, the first -at one might quit a friend's house and the second that one might enter one's own. The result of this irritating tax is that Vienna is the earliest to-bed capital in Europe. Unappeased. Little Corina had in her extreme youth been passionately fond of dolls, abut a trifle destructive of them. There came a day, a "strange, sad day," when sawdust and false hair no longer fascinated her. She demanded a real baby. Her parents protested that the realization of her demand would involve them in financial ruin. "I don't believe real babies are so expensive as you think they are!" exclaimed Corina. "I see every day just lots and lots of ever so poor people with them." Heaven. If heaven lacks the face I know; If the willings hold, the heart most true; That made me happy every minute; The willing hands, the heart most true; The tender kiss we knew at parting; The merry laugh, the harmless fun; The make-believing and sweethearting; If heaven lacks a little home; If the willings hold, the heart most true; Who'll cheer me when I cease to roam; So can I, my heart, be common; If heaven lacks the winning smile; That left me ever willing debtor; If heaven lacks the winning smile. THE APPEAL. Now is the Time To Begin Making Christmas For Thank's Caller Have you begun to make Christmas presents? If not you are a little late, even now, for the new Christmas gifts take time, if they do not take money. If you are going to give a Christmas present, modern, yet without price, you can take and make a nice little bag, using silkline. It will make up nicely, and on the outside you can embroider a monogram and can pepper the bag with French knots. It is for fancy work. And, if you so desire, you can work the words "Fancy Work" upon the reverse of the bag. Thank's Guild Your gift will be pretty, acceptable—and cheap. But if you want to put a little more time and a little more money into it you can get up something a great deal nicer. Suppose you make a parsee bag. It should be eight inches across and twelve inches long. bag is to hold fancy work and must be be enough for a big piece of embroidery. This bag is unlined and its foundation is a piece of satin. You can use cloth if you prefer and for this a sort of shiny faced ladies' cloth is good. Let it be thin and have it of an oriental color. Good oriental tones are dull brown, about the shade of strong coffee, deep red, the color called watermelon pink, the color called amber, and for vivid for western ideas of beauty. Your groundwork does not matter so much, for you are going to work your SCRAP BOX IN BURBY WOOD HAND PAINTED bag almost entirely over with fancy stitches and the background will dis-appear Remember that your parsec bag is to be unlined and that therefore its reverse side must be done neatly, no long stitches and no mixed up threads. And little crocheted wheels, made by crocheting a fancy stitch over little curtain pole rings, are applied to the bag so to form a pattern. And so you keep on, working and designing, and working, until your bag is covered with handiwork. Run a stout cord— Presents. not a ribbon—through the top; and you have a handsome Christmas present. The new art collars and cuffs are well worth a place in the Christmas worker's work basket. They are made out of canvas, or denim, scrim or coarse linen. The coarser the material the better the result. And they linens that cost little, the great, heat wave of canvases, such as are used for chair coverings and for chair arunds in the summer time, all man good and up to date art table spreads. Let them be cut about two yards long and narrow for the length, an then, with facile needle, let the wombs who is getting ready for Christmas O are cut in the shape of a wide turnover band for the neck. And there are wide turnover cuffs for the wrists. After the linen, or canvas, scrim, or whatever other heavy white material is employed has been cut into collar and cuff shapes the hand of the worker takes hold. The collar and cuffs can be drawn with openwork, if desired. But if openwork is too difficult or too trying to the eyes there are other ways of managing. One lovely pair of Christmas cuffs is made of heavy plain white linen, deep and beautiful in texture. Around the edge of the cuffs is wrought a deep bead on the back of the collar with a design below. This is done in a gaudy red, the brightest possible tone being chosen. The same is done for the collar. A heavy white canvas turnover collar was embroidered with a band of china blue embroidery at least three inches deep, and the embroidery was of the coarse kind, with long running stitches. The collar was a beauty and now lies in a sachet cloth, to come out perfumed on the day of Christmas gift. The embroidered or drawn stock, the decorated pair of linen cuffs, and the hand made belt are all numbered high in the list of popular Christmas gifts. A Christmas art set makes a nice Christmas gift. The art set consists of a white canvas belt with harness buckle. The belt is an inch wide and is worked in cross stitch design. The same plan is carried out for the collar and cuffs. The art set, laid out on the proper box, is a name of the owner letter. The outside, makes a delightfully personal Christmas present. The latest acquisition to the family of Christmas table covers consists of a strip of heavy stuff about a foot wide. This is trimmed at each end with a crocheted edge, done in colored twine. Twine, by the way, will be largely used in Christmas decoration. It makes a nice border, instead of fringe, and can be worked with a crochet hook and sewed on the material. Again, twine is used for the making of small wheels. These are done in different sizes, from the size of a dime to the size of a trade dollar. The wheels are applied to the table cover, the chair backs, and the spreads of all kinds, and nice ornament ents they make. The heavy sks go, the coarse Defective Page linens that cost little, the great, heavy weave of canvases, as are used for chair coverings and for chain shrouds in the summer time, all make good and up to date art table spreads. Let them be cut about two yards long and narrow for the length, and then, with facile needle, let the woman who is getting ready for *Christmas* go to work upon them. The new art table covers are all remarkable for the fact that their background is almost completely covered with handwork. There are all sorts of strange figures, cut out of the goods and applied to the covers; and there are strange veinings and stranger stitches used to hou them in place. The beauty of this kind of work, from the standpoint of the worker, is that it is not critical work. Any kind eritches it used to hold them in place. chance to study any one of the designs critically. All are mixed in with the general scheme, which is that of completely covering the background. There is less of the actual patchwork done this year than ever before. The crazy quilt designs have largely gone out, but bits of silk are placed together to make new art covers of a different kind. A large "block" is made and pieces are sewed on the outside until the "block" has reached the right size. This is the up to date nouveau art cover, or spread, or chair back. The making of a scrap box is one of the things which the girl who is making Christmas presents must have for her birthday. It has taken the place of the scrap basket, and a worthy substitute it is. To make a scrap box you take heavy pieces of pasteboard about four inches wide and gradually widening toward the top. They can be about twelve inches tall. These four pieces of pasteboard are laced together at the sides, so that when laced they form a perfect box. The bottom is glued in by using heavy strips of brown paper on the inside. Or the bottom can be laced in. The outside is now decorated with water sketches or a little rough art work in the way of the application of pretty pictures. *But there are more artistic scrap boxes, and these require the assistance of a capable carpenter. The material is thin wood which is beautiful white in color, or it can be dark if you prefer the deeper, woods. Any color will do. The sides, which are about four inches by ten inches, are cut out by the penter, and grazed with the scrap boardward. The scrap box will be wider at the top than at the bottom. The carpenter now bores holes in the wooden pieces. And finally, they are laced together with stout leather strips, which are as tough as strips can be. They are laced from the bottom to the top and tied in a stout little knot. The bottom is done in the same way. Any boy could make such a box, and if he is artistic or has an artistic A MOOK PAG IN PALOSE EMBROIDERY sister, the box can be decorated with poker work or with burnt work of any sort. Those who have electric light can purchase a pointed implement and do some nice burnt work. The particular virtues of a scrap box of the wooden sort, with the sides laid together and the bottom laced ... is that it can always be taken apart and cleaned, and that it can never wear out. All Christmas gifts must have the new art touch. Last year's Christmas presents are away out of date and they show at once that they are not all that they should be. The newau art fad has struck the domestic woman with the talented needle must learn all the tricks of the newau art school. Harnessing her needle with a bright thread, she must work birds and animals and all sorts of strange flying things. And over all and through all she must put the touches of orientalism in the shape of bright colors and their combinations. if she will do this, and will begin easily enough, hr Christmas gifts, instead of going forth with an apology for the mistake, with the mound greeting of the day. THE DUTCH COURTSHIP MONTH. November is Held Sacred to the God of Love. In Holland November is held sacred to courtship. The four Sundays of November are observed as fete days in Holland. They are known by the curious names—review, decision, purchase and possession; and all refer to matrimonial affairs. November in Holland being the month par excellence devoted to courtship and marriage, probably because agricultural occupations of the year are over, and possibly because the lords of creation from remote antiquity have recognized the pleasurance of having wine to cook and cater for them during the long winter. On review Sunday everybody goes to church, and after service there is a church parade in every village, when the youths and maidens gaze upon each other, but forbear to speak. On decision Sunday, each bachelor who is seeking a wife approaches the maiden of his choice with a ceremonial bow, and, from her manner of responding, judges whether his advances are acceptable. On purchase Sunday the consent of the parents is sought if the suit has prospered during the week. Not until possession Sunday, however, do the twain appear before the world as actual or prespective brides and grooms. WHY HE QUIT THE CHURCH Senator Hoar's Barber Relates a Story of Fortune's Changing Favor. Senator Hoar of Massachusetts, always cleanly shaven and usually fastidious in his choice of a barber, tells this story of the colored gentleman who was accustomed to remove the surplus hair from his face when he visited Boston. The knight of the razor was named Dickson. One morpheus who was accustomed to conversation by saying: "I believe you are a member of the African church in street?" "No, sah; not at all, sah," was the reply made with much dignity. "Ah, I thought you were when I was here last." "But not this yah, sah." "Ah, have you resigned?" "Wal, sah, it was dis way: I jined dat church in good faith and de fust yeah I give ten dollars to the stated gospel, and all de church people calls me "Brudder Dickson." De second yeah ma biness fell off, en I give five dollars; en all de church people dey call me "Mister Dickson." Do dis razer ma be nice, do dis razer ma be very easy." "Thank yah sah; well, de third yeah I feel so pooh dat I don't give nuttin' "tall fur prechin', en all de church people day me by en say 'dat oiler Dickson.' After dat I quit 'em.' Couldn't Stump "Uncle Billy." Col. Evan P. Howell, mayor of Atlanta, Ga., tells a story of one "Uncle Billy," the autocrat and know-all of the country settlement in which he lived. Uncle Billy had to live up to the reputation of never having been stumped by a question. One day at the country store, where Uncle Billy and his clan were wont to gather, the question was sprung at the door. "What was the word being encountered in a newspaper one of the men was reading. Uncle Billy was finally appealed to. The old man took the paper, scrutinized the word, reflected a full minute, and then said, with his usual sententiousness, "Waal, boys, I can't say adackly what this word means, but it's some part of the innards of a hog."—New York Times. What Webster Did With Money. Secretary Root, on the day he sailed for England, told a member of the national boundary commission, told an interesting story of Daniel Webster's boyhood. "Little 'Dan' and his younger brother," said Mr. Root, "had each been given some money. They started out gleefully, and it was evening before they got back home. "Well, Dan,' said the senior Webster, "what did you do with your money?" "Spent it,' the boy answered sturdily. "And how about you? What did you do with your money?' the father asked the younger brother. "I lent it to Dan," was the reply." The Oldest Mummy. The oldest mummy yet discovered, a unique relic now in the British Museum, is the body of a man about 5 feet 9 inches in height. A bit of hair yet remaining surges that its original color was fair, the hands and feet are small and the intellectual formation of the head indicates that the man was of a superior race. It is believed that he represents the original inhabitants of Egypt, who were conquered by Asiatic invaders and subsequently intermingled with the conquerors to form the race known as Egyptians. The oval grave in sandstone rock was covered with large slabs of stone and surrounded by flints and earthenware pottery. I know that he will never show. In any little way. Go out and remorse; he'll be in the fight to stay; And yet, I salute my enemy, For he fights in the open, and valiantly at that. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY. $2.40 PER YEAR. MADE USE OF MICE BRILLIANT IDEA OF THRIFTY SCOTCHMAN. Dumferline Man Had Scheme by Which Household Pets Could Be Made to Furnish Motive Power to Run His Thread Mill. Thrift is generally acknowledged to be one of the leading characteristics of the native of Fifeshire, and it never was more forcibly exemplified than in the person of David Hutton, a native of Dumferline, who actually proved that even mice, those acknowledged pests of mankind, could be made not to earn their own living but also to yield a respectable income to their owners. About the year 1850 this gentleman actually erected a small mill at Dumferline for the manufacture of thread—a mill worked entirely by mice. It was while visiting Perth prison in 1812 that Mr. Hutton first conceived this remarkable idea of utilizing mouse power. In an old pamphlet of the time, "The Curiosity Coffee Room," he gave an account of the way in which the idea dawned on him. "In the summer of the year 1812," he wrote, "had occasion to be in Perth, and when inspecting the toys and trinkets that were manufactured by the French prisoners in the depot there my attention was involuntarily attracted by a little toy house, with a wheel in the gable of it that was run by a horse. I was impressed by insignificant gravity of a common house mouse. For one shilling I purchased house, mouse and wheel. Inclosing it in a handkerchief, on my journey homeward I was compelled to contemplate its favorite amusement. But how to apply half-power power (which is the weight of a mouse) to a useful purpose was the difficulty. At length the manufacturing of sewing thread seemed the most practicable." Mr. Hutton had one mouse that ran the amazing distance of eightteen miles a day, but he proved that an ordinary mouse could run ten and one-half miles on an average. A halfpenny worth of oatmeal was sufficient for its support for thirty-five days, during which it ran 736 miles. He had actually two mice that consumed the thread for more than a year. The mouse thread mill was so constructed that the common house mouse was enabled to make atonement to society for past offenses by twisting, twinging and reeling from 100 to 120 threads a day. Sundays not excepted. To perform this task, the little pedestrian had to run ten and one-half miles and this journey it performed with ease every day. A halfpenny worth of oatmeal served one of these thread mill culprits for the long period of five weeks. In that time it made 2,350 threads of twenty-one hundred miles and this journey to women for every hank made in the ordinary way, the mouse, at that rate, earned ninepence "every six weeks, just one farthing a day, or seven shillings and sixpence a year. Taking sixpeace off for board, and allowing one shilling for machinery, there was a clear yearly profit from each mouse of six shillings. Mr. Hutton firmly intended to apply for the loan of the empty cathedral in Dunfermline, which would have held, he calculated, 10,000 mouse dollars, 10,000 keepers and some hundreds of spectators. Death, however, overtook the inventor before this marvelous project could be carried out.—Edinburgh Scotsman. HARD ON THE CLERK. But the Merchant Had to Try to Save a Customer. A merchant having a lady customer whose account did not appear satisfactory, recently instructed his clerk to write for payment. To this request the customer sent a polite note, saying that some money would be sent. A fortnight, meantime, elapsed, during which the bill crept up a few more dollars, and, no money coming to hand, another letter was forwarded, threatening extreme measures unless the account were promptly settled. The lady, however, having received some money, immediately sent the amount required, together with a curt intimation that she intended to close the account. "Now, what shall we do father?" said the customer, who was clerk, private secretary, cashier, etc. "That's another customer lost." "Do" replied the old man promptly. "Why, write to her at once, and say that the thick-headed clerk wrote to the wrong customer, and that he's discharged for such disgraceful carelessness."

Adame heave stood since tts Srat inane | For twenty years THE APPEAL has peen conducted on a high plane, and pas avoided, as much as possible, all personal and newspaper controversies. Here is the platform of THE AP- PRAL and Cyrus Field Adams: 1. This is not a white man's country as persistently claimed by the South- ern press. By right of birth and in- tense loyalty to the flag, the Afro- American claims his share of Amerl- ean cltizenship, and the Federal con- sutution speciically places all of its citizens on equality before the law. | 2, The statements of those who claim that the Caucasian race, which constitutes but one-fourth of the total population of the globe, has been es~ pecially ordained by God to rule all other Faces 1s akin to blasphemy. 3. The granting of suffrage to the Afro-American people was NOT a mis- take and it has NOT proved a failure. We believe in manhood suffrage with- out any educational or property quali- fications whatever, and contend that the law-abiding man of good character, who does his duty as a citizen and risks his Mfe in defense of the flag, should not be deprived of the ballot because he Is poor and eannot read or write, 4. We have always refused to con- sider the proposition that we relin- quish any of the political or civil rights we now possess. We should make every effort to retain those we have and ‘regain those which have been nullified. Denial of these rights has worked irresistibly for the denial or abridgment of all the related rights of citizensh{p, because a voteless man, of a trith, has no right which any one Is bound to respect, 5. We do not believe that the Afro: American should be restricted to any particular kind of edueation, but that every parent should determine the Kind of education he wishes his chil: dren to receive and that the schools supported by public taxation should be open to all regardless of race, col- or or creed. We believe in higher ed- tucation, industrial edueation and pro- fessional education. 6. We firmly belleve that in a re. public there can be but one kind of citizen, hence deny the right of the government—general, state or local— to discriminate in any way, between citizens by the enactment of any law which specifies that the Atro-Ameri can must be separkted from or treated Gifferently from the great body of citi zens. We are unalterably opposed to any class legislation. 7. We dispute the contention that Southern Caucasians pay the taxes necessary to educate the Southern Afri-American. ‘This is an economic absurdity which would only be advane- ed as an argument by persons who seek to befog the public intelligence ‘That each man standing in his. place in every community pays as much tax es as any other man is an economic ruism which no reputable master of Social conditions, from Adam Smith to the present, has disputed. 8. THE APPEAL believes in the sa. eredness of pure womanhood, and the man of any race who insults, assaults or outrages a woman of any race should be legally punished in the se vorest manner laid down by the law. 8, We know that the race has been maliciously misrepresented in the mat ter of crime. The efforts of our enc mies to prove that the Afro-American race Is a race of rapists have been re sented and disproved by statistics published In THE APPEAL. We have Shown that the Caucasian commits ‘more crimes against womanhood than he Afro-American. 10. We are opposed to mob law and elieve that mob license 1s more dan serous to the well-being and perpetul *y of society than the isolated Infrac tions of the law by Individuals, 11. We do not believe the Southe-n people are the best friends of the race tnd will never consent to allow the Zouth to be the court of last resort ir he solution of the socalled race prob ‘em, 12, We are opposed to the convict "ease erstem of the South and believe “hat the chain gang. which is but 2 ‘chool of erime, sheuld be wiped out of existence. ‘This is the platform of THE AP. BAL and of Cyrus Field Adams. We have advocated these principles ever since the initial number of the paper ‘and the files will prove it. We here- by reaffirm our determination to con- ‘tinue the battle for every right to which we are justly entitled, as‘ good Ditizens loyal to the flag, and come what may, we will never give up the contention for absolute justice and ab: solute equality under the law. THE APPEAL does not consider Mr. Washington the national political leader of the race. ‘There is no na- tional political leader, for the race, as.a body, absolutely refuses to be led. Frederick Douglas came nearer to what the ideal race leader should be than any Afro-American who ever lived, yet he was assailed by almost the entire race press of his day. Mr. Washington is an educator; a special- ist in education. He thoroughly be- lieves in Industrial training which he has exploited in every possible way. He has confined himself to his spe- cialty and Tuskegee tells the story of his ork along industrial edueational ines. THE APPEAL thinks for Itself. Our platform was made before we met Mr. Washington and it has never changed. No association with him or with any other man has affected our position on the foregoing fundamental principles. ‘We stand today where we stood iwenty years ago and malicious per-| sons can not make the public believe that we have abandoned any of. the principles enumerated in our plat: orm. THE HOUSTON CHRONICLE. The Houston, Texas, Chronicle, re [cently issued a 52-page paper in honor [of its second anniversary, which was very creditable as a mechanical pro. duction. The spirit of its editorial col umns is bad. On the race question it is one of the meanest papers in the South and claims the doubtful honor of having been the first newspaper to advocate the John Temple Graves the- ory of the separation of the race. The Chronicle was one of the chief factors in aiding the “Jim Crow” street car law which has recently become effect- ive in Houston. ‘The Chronicle has proved itself opposed “in. every way fo the best, interests of 20,000. Atro- Americans, more than one-fourth of the population of the thriving ‘Texas city, and yet in the anniversary num- ber ‘this paper has the nerve to say: “The one thing that.has always guided the Chronicle has been the determina- tion to produce an honest newspaper without prejudice and without pander- ing. ‘The Chronicle will continue to be THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER. ‘© Joitrhal ‘ot “thé ‘people,’ aervifig: thie] ~ - —— [soueed aes ae acters ee a eer ope’ Chronicle has pandered tg the BY me BS J]: rey 6 = ‘sini mateeermna| [SA Sere Anh é [sport las” ine column tents] eA 7S L Snes tarsecie) fF “f= WO Ru Se ei Wh Wilford H. Smith, attorney for Jack- son W. Giles and Dan Rogers in the suits of the former against the board of registrars of Montgomery county, Ala, affd of the latter against the state of Alabama, has entered a motion In the United’ States supreme court to consolidate the cases and advance their hearing. "_ GileS and Rogers are both Afro-Amer: feans, and the cases involve the ques. ‘tion as to whether the suffrage provi ‘sions of the new constitution of Ala. | ama are repugnant to the constitution of the United States. ¢ ‘The Giles case is a revival in an other form of the case formerly de cided against him by this court on ac count of the refusal of the registrar to register him as a voter. The cast of Rogers is a prosecution for murder [in which the defendant moved to quast the indictment and the panel of peti Jurors on the ground that the quall fied members of his race had been ex cluded from the jury on account o their race and color, and that the jur3 panels were made up from the list 0 ‘qualified electors, and that his race ha been excluded from that list by reasor of the suffrage provisions of the nev constitution of Alabama, which 3 their operation excluded practically al Afro-Americans from the electorate fo no other reason than their race an color. while all white men possessin, the same qualification, except color were admitted and qualified, ‘The board of registrars of Montgom ery county resist the motion to con solidate because of the want of sim larity of the two cases. The report of the rape of a white girl by a white man in Greenville, S , in the Charleston News and Courier is headed: “Charlie Patterson, White Charged With Ruining a Young Girl.’ The correspondent ends his ” report with: “The affair 1s generally con demned, but there Is no excitement.’ Of course there is no excitement. it was a Caucasian who committed the crime, and for nearly three hundred years Caucasians have outraged black Women. Now white rapists are turn ing their attention to their own race Such affairs are “generally condemn fed,” but there is no attempt to lynct the white brute. It's another. story when a black brute assaults a woman ‘The Pan-Ameriean Congress _ al Bishops in session at Washington thi week is considering the question o drawing the color line in sending mis sionaries among the race. I's a cold day when no one is “considering” the color line in this country, the only one fon the face of the globe that declares “all men are born free and equal,” the only one that hangs its banner on th outer” wall bearing the Invitation: “Come all that are down trodden an¢ oppressed of all nations, here you wil Gnd a haven of rest, where every one may worship God under his own vine and fig tree with none to molest ot ‘tiake he afield” In an address before the Phi Delta Phi fraternity in New York Justico Bischoff of New York pointed out that mob law is old as the world, and says <he cause of lynching is the law's ‘de jay. ‘This may be true of the North, but it is certainly not true of the South where hundreds of men have been lynched for no crime except the color M their skins. ‘The justice also thinks hat the South is the best friend’ of he race, but the Afro-Amerieans have other thoughts on that subject. ‘THE APPEAL hopes that the Afro: American thug who has assaulted and ‘obbed several women on one of Chi vago's principal streetsewill be caught and properly punished according to aw, THE APPEAL has no sympathy vith a eriminal because he is black sr white, ‘The man who assaults qed ‘obs a Woman is a brute, and showid ve punished according to law. At a meeting of Afro-American min- ers from Indiana, Tlinols and. sen: tucky, held at Terre Haute, Ind., reso- lutions were adopted declaring against all organizations which make a color Mine discrimination and commending the United Mineworkers because it @raws no color line. ‘The color line must go.

At the Grand Opera House next week the famous emotional actress, Miss Eugenie Blair, will present two great plays, "Zaza" and "Magda." It is said that the greatest praise has been given Miss Blair throughout the country for her portrayal of "Zaza" and her characterization has indeed become a popular one. She will again present it at the Grand under the direction of Henri Gressitt, supported by an excellent company. For the first half of the week beginning Sunday "Zaza" will be presented. The scenery which was used last season has been replated by even more sumptuous stage settings and entirely new costumes will be used for the first time. "Zaza" is an impulsive person, given to extremes in all she does, but Miss Blair meets the part admirably, and carries an audience with her as she goes from point to point in the portrayal from the awkward boldness of the first act to the grand climax of the third. She is at all time in the partial figure of the plays, and it is partially from this fact that she has been successful in her interpretation for she is clever enough to hold any audience individually without the aid of other assistance. Wednesday matinee, and Wednesday, Thursday and Friday nights Miss Blair will present Sudermann's celebrated play "Magda," Miss Blair playing the title role. This play, it will be remembered, was made famous by Bernhard and Duse. ASSAULTED A CHILD John Rickey Commits Awful Crime at Rome, Ga. Special to Atlanta Constitution Speaker 10 Arduino Group, Rome, Ga. Oct. 1—John Rickey has been landed in jail here, charged with criminal assault on Eliza Turner, the 8-year-old child of respectable Afro-American people. The details of the crime are shocking in the extreme. After the crime was committed he is said to have beaten the girl into insensibility. When found several hours later she was just barely alive and may yet die. CLIFFORD A. SMITH. A Progressive Young Man Goes Into Business for Himself. Business for Himself. Mr. Clifford A. Smith was born, reared and educated in Chicago. He learned the tailor trade and came to St. Paul some years ago, and for the last four years held the position of cutter for the fashionable and popular tailors, Reid Brothers. Believing that he can use his knowledge to a better advantage by doing business for himself Clifford A. Smith. he nas opened a neat tailor shop in room 412 Bradley Building, on Fifth street between Wabasha and Cedar, where he is prepared to do anything in the line of his business. Gentlemen wishing stylish garments made to order will do well to give him an order for their fall and winter suits and overcats. Suit or overcoat finished in five days after order is placed. Quality, fit and finished guaranteed. Clothes repaired and renovated. SEEKING THE WRONG REMEDY. The gentlemen who write long editorials and indie learned articles for the magazines on the "nameless crime" and the remedy therefor, may be scholars and statesmen, but they are not practical by any means. Let any man lay down his own premises and he can produce almost unanswerable arguments. The trouble is the premises are incorrect. For instance, they hop on the better element of the colored race for not teaching these people better, for not pointing out to them, not only the wrong, but the danger of such things; some writers go so far as to say that the respectable element rather shows an inclination to protect, or at least to sympathize with, the rapist. This may be true in some cases, though we doubt it—at least doubt that any well educated or respectable Negro ever does this. But the point we make is this—the class of Negroes given to these outrages never go inside of a church; they never attend school; they never hear, much less read, of what is going on. In other words, they can not be reached. Last week at the meeting of the Rowan Baptist Association, composed of colored people, held in this place, some strong talks were made and papers read condemning this crime in unmeasured terms, yet how much good was done? Not a man of the class sought to be reached was in the house. It can be said that others could talk to them even if they do not attend a church or any school, but the trouble is in locating this class. They are isolated from the best elements of their race; in fact, the Negro gets it into his head that his brother who knows the head is "stuck up" and don't want to know him. This is natural, and in fact, white people get it the hardest in their heads, so that it is impossible to reach these classes. Sifted down, the cure lies in education—in school and in the church—any and everywhere, but the first thing is education, for if you can get a boy to attend school, he will learn these things, even if he cannot be taught to "read, write or either"; but the point ```markdown ``` The above clothing will be shown on separate tables is to reach him, to pen him up and enlighten him.—Greensboro (N. C.) Record. Democratic. MONEY NEEDED. The Legal and Legislative Bureau of the National Afro-American Council is out in a circular asking contributions to a fund to be used in bringing the case of Rev. H. T. Johnson, plain tiff, (Editor of the Christian Recorder) vs. the Pullman Company, before the supreme court of the United States. The case was recently tried in the federal court in New Jersey, and a jury awarded the plaintiff a verdict for the sum of $500, on May 18, 1903. The judge before whom the case was tried, entered an order setting aside the verdict and giving the Pullman company judgment. Mr. Johnson was refused breakfast on a dining car operated by the Pullman Company, on the Seaboard Air Line Railroad. There was urgent demand for money to press this case, and the judge may be sent to Jesse Lawson, Financial Secretary, Washington, D. C.; J. Madison Vance, Director, New Orleans, La.; F. L. McGhee, Vice Director, St. Paul, Mimn. Used in 1853. Way back in the year 1858 the Original Ozonized Ox Marrow was used by Afro-Americans in the North and is now all used over the country from Maine to Texas' and Oregon to Florida. The continued use of the preparation for such a long period of time is a positive proof that it gives perfect satisfaction to all. It makes kinky or curly hair straight, soft and beautiful. Stops falling hair, curses dandruff and makes the hair grow. Never fails. Warranted harmless. Only 50 cents a bottle. Get it from your dealer or send us 50 cents and we will ship you a bottle express paid. Address: Ozonized Ox Marrow Co., 76 Wabash ave., Chicago, Ill. --- Oxygen is Life's Necessity. Without Oxygen man dies, but when the blood is well fed with oxygen man lives in the full enjoyment of health. Life should be a constant physical revolution. Oxygen is a feeder of living tissues. Disease and sickness arise from lack of vitality, which is due to lack of oxygen in the blood. OXYDONOR animates and thus reverses this degeneration, opens the way for the whole organism to drink freely of oxygen, through the pores of the skin and membranes, and sets in operation an energizing, irresistible, vital force, which speedily overcomes disease. One OXYDONOR will serve the family. It cures while you rest, and its results are equally efficacious for the infant and grandisire. The following testimonial, one of many humiliating as to the efficiency of the Oxygenon: St. Paul, Minn., Jan. 28, 1903. Dr. C. S. Wilson. I take great pleasure in notifying you that I have given the Oxydonor a thorough test later, when my wife was sick with La Gripe, Bronchitis, and a touch of Pneumonia. It was a severe attack, accompanied by high fever, and I must confess that I had some doubts about the outcome. But to my surprise the Oxydonor worked well to help it in for 35 hours, but it conquered the disease. Applying the Oxydonor two more nights perfected the cure. Yours very gratefully.

No Segregation of Afro-American Pupils in Public Schools. Bethel Church was crowded to overflowing last Sunday evening, the occasion being the first meeting of the Equal Opportunity league. This league has been called into existence because of a seeming desire on the part of a certain class of citizens to separate the Afro-American pupils in the public schools from the whites. While there is probably no imminent danger of such action being taken, a number of public spirited citizens deemed it necessary to call a meeting and, by registering a strong protest, forestall any move by the board directly. Such action would certainly be detrimental to the Afro-American children, and such a move by the board is hardly probable in a city where Afro-American teachers are employed to instruct white pupils. The Afro-Americans in the city are, however, evincing much interest in the matter, as evidenced by the meeting last Sunday, evening at Bethel church. The principal speakers of the evening were Hon. E. H. Morris, Major Franklin Dennison and Dr. C. E. Bentley. The gentlemen, being men of rejoice in the city may have, for Chicago many years, and close observers of public affairs, especially where the Afro-American is concerned, knew what they were talking about, and, without resort to abuse, reasoned out their cases in a logical manner.
