INDIANS SHOW CRAFT
CLEVER SCHEME BY WHICH TRIBE SECURED PONIES:
Treaty Prohibition Kept in the Letter, but Evaded in the Spirit—Arrangement That Was Profitable to the White Men.
"Have you ever heard how a treaty between the Modoc and Pit River Indians, way out in eastern Oregon, was nullified?" asked M. T. Rogers, while discussing frontier and early day experiences. "The two tribes were at constant warfare with each other long years ago, and the fortunes of war varied. Some seasons victory would be with the Pit Rivers and at other times their hereditary enemies, the Modocs, would subjugate them. Upon one occasion the Modocs managed to capture the entire band through some strategy, and when they counted noses it was found that captors and captured were about equal in number. The officers supplied to keep the prisoners from escaping it was found that there were not enough Modocs left to do the hutting or go on the warpath.
Finally a council was held and the chiefs reached an agreement for a treaty of peace between the two tribes. The condition of the treaty was that the Pit River Indians were never again to own horses, this being required because the Modocs could easily keep them under control. The captured band returned to their hunting grounds and established villages, but were without horses for a number of years.
"Attracted by the excellent sheep range territory, ranchmen from Northern California invaded the Pit River country and brought with them large heds of ponies to be used in rounding up. The Indians looked with long upon the horses and finally the ranch was filled out ponies. When the fall weather came and corrals were found necessary, the ranchmen entered into an agreement for the services of the Indians to supply rails to fit up corrals. The Indians refused pay for the work done, but took ponies instead. They also refused to accept full pay, insisting upon owing a pony secured, so that the title remained in the name of the whites.
"The Modocs, learning that their enemies HAD been supplied, with ponies in violation of the treaty, made a raid, but were informed that the ponies were not the property of the Pit River Indians, but belonged to the white men. Through these methods the ranchmen secured the use of valuable grazing ground for many years, and the Indians found a way of getting around the treaty"—Milwaukee (Wis.) Sentinel.
MEN NOT ALWAYS PUNCTUAL
One Observer Saye It is the Woman Who Has to Wait.
Which is theunctual or the least unpunctual sex? A correspondent who has been making studies in the portico of the Royal academy arrives at very certain conclusions, and he has given us the benefit of them.
The two benches that flank the door are filled each morning at an even hour, such as 11, with ladies who have arrived any time during the preceding fifteen minutes. Their patient eyes are fixed on Picadilly.
For ten minutes nothing occurs. Then one by one men arrive, and the waiting woman rises with cheerful alacacy to join her dilatory lord. She offers no reproaches and he makes no apologies.
"We are both punctual," is the first man's complacent exclamation to the woman who came a quarter of an hour early, and smiles, not in irony, but in pleasure, that her fifteen minutes of monotony is relieved by the assured presence of her expected man.
The last laggard to arrive is half an hour late. "I thought it better to give you a little grace," he says benevolently. And she murmurs, "Thanks."—London Chronicle.
A Song of Love.
A Song of Love.
Do you rate for the white glow on your breast, my love? That is the flame of love I send to you from not flicking kiss, hardly a whispered word. But I myself that flies as a white-winned star.
Let it dwell there, let it rest there, at home in your heart:
Write your name on gold, it is Love itself, the Dove.
Not the god whose arrows wounded with Nor the purple-fiery birds of death and love.
Do not ask for the hands of love or love's. They give less than love who give all, I give you the star-fire 'the heart-way to Himself.
When white fire after, no arrow with stinging pain.
— A. E. in the Living Age.
Accounting for the Booster
"Accounting for the Robbery:
"I had a curious case," said Dr. Macdonald, Ward of a patient who was followed everywhere by a Shanghai rooster. It went with him visiting and to the barroom. When he ordered a drink for himself he ordered one for the rooster, too. The rooster drank it. He introduced the rooster to all his friends, and it sat by him at table. It was only by the strictest methods of diet and exercise that I was at last able to rid him of that rooster, but finally I did."
Phil Thompson, who was one of the party, occupied a moment, thought, "I should have concluded that 'if that fellow had been drinking too many cocktails'"—New York Times.
THE APPEAL.
PAPER NAPKINS IN THOUSANDS
Made in This Country, in Great Numbers and of Fine Appearance. Up to within ten years all of the many millions of paper napkins annually consumed in the United States were imported from Japan or China, but now a large proportion of them are made here. This proportion is constantly increasing, and now American paper napkins are exported to Europe.
Some of the napkins produced in this country are printed with designs Japanese in character, but the great bulk are original in every way. They include napkins printed with various flowers, which are reproduced with fidelity to nature, both in drawing and in color, and which are also in many cases arranged with most artistic effect upon the paper.
And then there are napkins with reproductions in color of playing cards, and others with the flags of various nations. And then there are napkins upon which are printed yacht flags, and napkins printed with music, and napkins with other designs.
There are still other napkins that are plain white, without ornamentation; and then there are napkins printed with some simple design in one or two colors, and there are napkins with a pattern embossed, and napkins with a border printed with a pattern in gold or in silver; and gold and silver are used also on some of the napkins printed in colors to enhance the decorative effect.
These napkins are, in short, produced in scores of styles, many of which are artistic. In fact, to anybody who had never seen one, the sample book of an American manufacturer of paper napkins would be a surprise.
Some American napkins are sold for less than any imported, while some of the finest cost more. There is, for example, an American napkin of tissue paper and printed with two colors that is sold at wholesale for as little as 30 cents a thousand. This napkin is printed from continuous rolls of paper on presses similar in operation to the fast presses on which American newspapers are printed.—New York Sun.

E. C. Knight, a well-known Philadelphia, gave a dinner recently at his villa in Newport in honor of Count Stiram of Paris.
During the dinner's course the talk turned to debating and Mr. Knight impersonated admirably a young farmer taking part in a debate.
The young farmer's speech in the impersonation ran as follows:
"The. subject. to be excused is. Whether Ardent Spirits Does Any Good or Not?" I confirm that it don't. Just think of our ancestors in future ages—the lived to a most numerous age—so that I don't think whisky nor ardent spirits don't do any good."
Long pause.
"Well. the question to be excused is. Whether ardent spirits does any good or not—so that I conclude it don't."
Long pause.
"I can't get hold on the darned thing."
Start of an Iowa Lawyer
An Iowa lawyer tells of his first months of practice. He went to a small country town to secure an office, in front of which was placed the usual sign. Then he sat down and waited for his clients to appear, the while feeling very much the dignity of his position. The day passed and no one called, and another, and another, until weeks went by, and still there had been no
One morning, however, he was at the depot to attend upon the atrium of the daily accommodation train, quite an important function of the town, when a handsome, well-dressed young lady approached and inquired, "is this Mr. Smith?"" Once the feeling of importance returned, and in his blush replied, "it is more that can I do for you?" "Can you tell me how much it will cost to send a sow and pigs down to the next station?"—Green Bag.

TREASURES OF LAKE NEMI
Bronzes from the Sunken Galleys Now Nearly Two Thousand Years Old to Be Brought to America to Enrich the New York Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The acquisition by the Metropolitan Museum of Art of the so-called "Treasure of Lake Nemi" will bring to New York-city a collection of archological monuments of great artistic value that cannot be duplicated, unless it be by further finds in the same place. It consists of ornaments and fragments of Roman vessels that are son composition in which were set leaden plates fastened with nails not of iron but of bronze. They found besides leaden pipes two cubits long and marked with inscriptions.
A century later a military architect, Francesco de Marciol of Bologna, explored the lake himself, making use of a sort of diving bell, the construc- bronze, similar to but somewhat larger than those found on the first ship. Part of the beam to which it was fastened, curiously waterworn was found with it. The bronze beam head has on one face the figure of an outspread hand, which is also archaei in style.

surely 1,800 years old and very possibly two or more centuries older still.
The relics were procured from the bottom of the lake nine years ago by Signor Eliseo Borghi, an Italian archaeologist, who was working on his own account with no assistance from the government. His discoveries made a great sensation and some account, of them appeared in the new edition of the book, the effect of publication was to make the Italian government step in and interfere with all further investigation.
Nemi is a picturesque little town in the Alban hills, twenty miles out of Rome, familiar to all travelers in Italy. It has been painted time and again by artists, and is known particularly through Turner's charming engraving. The lake of Nemi is the most beautiful spot that is seen in the Alban trip from Rome. It is the center of an extinct volcano, sloping down into the lake that the water becomes very deep a few yards from the shore. Close to the lake are the vestiges of an old temple of Diana.
From time immemorial the tradition has existed among the peasants of the district that somewhere in the lake a Roman galley was sunk. The legend ascribed to it to Tiberius, whose name is attached to many classical antiquities by the fancy of the people, and the mythical galley was called the nave di Tiberio, a name that may suit it as well as any other. Classical scholars who followed up the myth came upon a story of the Emperor Caligula's building an immense vessel on the little lake, wherein he held orgies. It was a structure of ancient magnificence; he held that it was built in the lake in the building of a ship but modern archeologists agreed that, whatever truth there might be in the story, the ship or the building had disappeared long ago and that it was folly to talk of recovering any part of it. This in spite of well authenticated records of beams and other debris drawn from Lake Nemi by fishermen and others. Signor Borghi, who was engaged in

excavating the remains of the temple of Diana, in the district called the Campo del Giardino, near the shores of the lake, was so much impressed by the persistence of the tradition that he hunted up the records and after reading that had been done, decided to search the lake for the fabled gallery. He gave credit to his predecessors of trying to tell the truth, and this is what he found.
In the middle of the fifteenth century Cardinal Prospero Colonna, who then owned the land around Lake Neml, was so much impressed by the tradition that he employed Leon Battista Alberti, the great architect and engineer, to raise the two gallys, which, it was said, lay at the bottom of the lake. Alberti made use of Genoese sailors skilled in diving; they were able to report on the size of the ships and to attach them grappling hooks, one of which was subsequently found by Signor Borghi's diver. Then with stout ropes and a

system of cranes erected on empty
casks they tried to raise the galleys,
but only part of the prow of one ship
was torn out. "It was made of larch
boards, covered with yellow or crim-
son composition in which were set
leathered plates fastened with nails not
of iron but of bronze." They found
their way to the long
and marked with inscriptions.
A century later a military architect, Francesco de Marchi of Bologna, explored the lake himself, making use of a sort of diving bell, the construction of which he does not explain, having promised the inventor to keep it secret. He hauled up part of the lake. Encouraged by good mules, which wood was of various kinds, there was larch and pine and cypress." Also pgs of oak, veined so that they looked like ebony. Besides, he found iron nails worn by rust, a great quantity of brass nails, lead plates with the covering material, beams of metal, lead pipe three fingers in thickness and wide enough for the heels to enter and a handle for the mouth. He took out a piece of red enamel from a flooring. This probably was the first boat Signor Borgi found.
Then nothing more was done for nearly three centuries, when in 1827 Cavaliere Aniesio Fusconi tackled the galley with a diving bell. His attempt came to an untimely end after he had spent $5,000 on it, owing to thieves carrying off all his apparatus during the winter months. Among the things Fusconi brought up were a bronze capital, forty terra cotta tablets, iron and bronze nails, pieces of enamel and marble from mosaics, a fragment of a grating inscribed Tib.

divers also at the bottom statues, columns and metal beams, which they could not get out. Some of these things were distributed among the vatican museums, but nearly every trace of them has disappeared.
Signor Borgli, while busied with his excavation of the temple of Diana, kept hearing the peasants tell of the sunken ship of Tiberius; he heard the fishermen's stories of their nets catching in the ships, and one day he saw a long beam the fisherman had dragged from the lake in the palace of Prince Orsini at Nemi. He made up his mind to try the venture and made a contract with the Orsini family, which owns Lake Nemi. He engaged an experienced river, had built boats and machinery, and had built derricks and constructions, derricks and crews on the lakeside. He selected a spot 75 fathoms from the shore, and 3 fathoms south of the building known as the "fisherman's hut" for his attempt, and on Oct. 3, 1895, began to draw up the objects which form his collection.
The first bronze brought to the surface was the top of a mooring post, a splendid work of art, a great band in the cavity of which was still the end of the beam to which it had been attached. More than a third of the surface bears in relief a beautiful lion's head in its teeth a workmanship points clearly to the first century of the empire.
In the days following many other important objects were drawn up. Chief among them were four bronze heads of animals with square bases, being the ornamental of beams; one of these represents a wolf's head, larger than life, with a ring hanging from the jaws; another the head of a hyena; two others, lions' heads, all with mooring rings attached to them. Another extremely beautiful bronze is attached to the stern, and is attached to the stern, and to which time has given a magnificent natina.
As the fisherman reported that there was another ship in the lake close to the point called the "Rock of Germanicus," about seventy-five fathoms from the shore and 1,300 feet to the south of the first ship. Signor Borghi determined to examine the place. Soon the driver reported that there was a ship there at a depth of two beams fastened together by iron railings and bands, held apart at a distance of nine feet. Then a lot of wood of various sorts, and beams held together with iron or copper nails, were raised to the surface.
Besides these things the second ship yielded bits of marble and other parts of a mosaic pavement, part of a little bronze column and some copper plates like those from the first ship. Further a plaque with a female figure on it was built with well preserved and three and three-quarter feet long, and most important of all, a beheaded of
bronze, similar to but somewhat larger than those found on the first ship. Part of the beam to which it was fastened, curiously waterworn, was found with it. The bronze beam head has on one face the figure of an outspread hand, which is also archaic in style. As soon as Signor Borghi's discover
eries became known the Italian government stepped in. It prevented the removal of the objects found for a long time, during which they were subjected to exposure to the weather and other perils. Much of the wood recovered—Signor Borghi says it amounted to 1,200 feet—deceased as plumbed by the neighboring population used it for firewood.
Exploration of the ships is now at a standstill. The Italian government sent a marine engineer to investigate and he recommended the draining of the lake to below the level where the ships are stranded. This will require much money and will involve a great deal of litigation with the riparian owners, and as a result the ships in Lake Nemi are likely to remain undisturbed for a long time.
It is interesting to note the conclusion to which Signor Borghi has come with regard to the character of these ships in the course of his researches. According to him there is no question of pleasure rays of Tibergus or of Caligua; in fact, the art of the second ship points back to the republic. He believes that the ship is connected with the temple of Diana. Diana's temple at Nemi was long a place of pilgrimage. It was the temple in the grove that gave the names to both the villages near the lake. Nemi is from Nemus, the lake is Nemorensis, while Genzano, near by, is from Cynthiana, one of Diana's names. There is proof of the great magnificence of the temple on shore, and he holds that for some sacred reason the temple was splendidly as part of the sacrificial worship of the goddess. The theory is more plausible than that which attributes the building of the ships to

QUERY AS TO SUNDAY.
Day Equally Lost, Whether Spent in Work or Sleep.
Two friends met on the street one Monday morning.
"Were you at church yesterday?" said one.
"No," said the other; the fact is, I am trying to do more business than I have been doing, and I find I have to go down to the office on Sunday. It isn't just the thing, perhaps, but I simply have to do it.
"I don't see how you can reconcile yourself to going to business on Sunday, though," said the first; "that's a thing I will never do."
"Were you at church yesterday?" asked the other.
"No; I confess I wasn't," answered the first; "the fact is, I work so hard every day of the week that I am dead tired on Sunday, and I don't feel like getting up, so that I have a good, long steep step. I am trying to enlarge my business, and I was at the office until 10 o'clock Saturday night."
Query—Is it a duty of a Christian to keep his faculties fresh for Sunday worship, even if it involves doing a little less on Saturday; add is there much difference between the Sunday sleeper and the Sunday sleeper?—Living Church.
Little Grace Meant Well, But Her Substitute Was Not Welcome.
Grace is 4 years old, and has just begun her religious education in the infant class of the Sunday school. It is a custom of the teacher of this particular infant class to give each of her pupils a card containing a short text which the child is expected to memorize during the week. In passing them out she charged each of the children to be sure to keep them carefully and return them the next Sunday, that they might be passed on to the other.
Grace is not a very careful little girl, and though fully impressed with the duty of returning the card, she neglected to put it in a place of safety she discovered that she had lost it. The thought worried her considerably at first, until a bright idea came into her head, and, strange to relate, it stayed there all the week.
She said nothing-to her mother about the lost card, and the next Sunday went off to Sunday school happy as usual. The infant class assembled and the teacher called on the children to return their cards. When it came Grace's turn, she arose and said, "I am sorry, but I lost my card. I got lost here. Papa gave me no time to play with, and I've brought you that. It's lots prettier than the one I lost." And she placed it with the rest.
The young woman who was teaching the infant class stared in mute astonishment, while several unregenerate adults in different parts of the classroom bit their lips to keep from laughing. The card which Grace had tendered was a somewhat dilapidated queen of hearts.

— The Rover, the Artist, Raphael, the great Italian painter, whose celebrated biblical pictures are worth fabulous sums of money, was not a rich man when young and encountered some of the vicissitudes of life like many another genius.
Once when traveling he put up at an inn, and remained there, unable to get away through lack of funds to settle his bill. The landlord grew suspicions that such was the case, and his requests for a settlement grew more pressing. Finally, Raphael, in desperation, resorted to the following device:
He carefully painted upon a table top in his room a number of gold coins, and, placing the table in a certain light that gave a startling effect, he packed his few belongings and summed his host.
"There," he exclaimed, with a lordly wave of his hand toward the table, "is enough to settle my bill and more. Now kindly show the way to the door." The kninkeeper, with many smiles and bows, ushered his guest out and then hastened back to gather up his gold. His rage and consternation were on his face, no bounds, until a wealthy English traveler, recognizing the value of the art put in the work, gladly paid him $50 for the table—Stray Stories.
Offered Vanderbilt Money.
Alfred Vanderbilt drove the coach Venture to the races at the Long Island tracks every day during the season, and on the way down stopped at a roadhouse at Prospect Park Circle for refreshments and a change of horses.
One day, while the Vanderbilt party was seated at a table in the main dining room, an individual sat down at an adjoining table and called for an impagene. Noticing his neighbors of idemage, he identity was not aware, parking of a more modest beverage, he invited them to join him. The invitation was not noticed and he got angry. Flashing a roll of bills, he cried.
"You're cheap skates! Maybe you like to have a little of this! There's $500 here!"
Before he could say any more two horrified waiters hustled him out, and he nearly collapsed when one of them said,
"Say, you're a pler! Don't you know who that was? Why, that was Vanderbilt!"

WHITE MAN'S INSTITUTION IS LIKED BY THE MOQUIS.
Little Ones Climb Down Immense Rock to Get Instruction, and Teachers Praise Their Good Behavior During Lesson Hours.
The home of the Oralibi branch of the Moqui Indians is a mesa 500 feet high, upon which the old Indians practice the snake dance and other favorite ceremonies of the tribe. But it is probable that the coming generation, or, perhaps, the present one, will grow out of these things. The white man with his school house and other images of civilization, has found the young Indians and made friends of them.
A few years ago these Indians of the messa were considered hostile because they exhibited more opposition to the influence of the whites than did the other Moquis. When it was proposed to build a school house at the children in school, the parents stubbornly refused to permit it. But a house was built, and after long and persistent effort, every child of proper age was enrolled as a pupil. The Indians, who had so vigorously opposed at first, became zealous friends and were as soon as they saw the result of it.
The enterprise has been very successful, and now one may stand near the school at 7 o'clock in the morning, and looking up at the platan, 500 feet above, see suddenly a curious thing. Little children, looking like dolls, begin to appear over the edge of the mesa. One child comes into view behind another, and soon the face of the great rock is alive, with the little creatures as they descend, in single file, the steep path lead path behind the mesa and the school. The little folk seem to be hanging to the wall of the immense rock as they slowly descend the face of it. They keep pouring over the edge at the top, and the head of the line has reached the school on the plain below before the last of it leaves the mesa.
When the straggling line comes fully into view, it is nearly a half mile long. A faintive person might see in its convolutions on the path of a snake and thikit of it as the snake dance with which the young Indians have replaced that of their graffitiers.
In this school there are 175 children, and in regularity of attendance it is said to head the list of Indian day schools in all the country. A fine large new building, costing between $3,000 and $4,000, has taken the place of the first schoolhouse. New clothes, such as white children wear, are supplied the pupils when they enter school. The children are fond of their lessons, and the teachers have but few complaints to make of bad behavior, -Youth's Companion.
Rest.
My feet are weared, and my hands are tired.
My soul oppressed—
And I desire, I have long desired—
Rest—only rest.
Tis hard to tell, when toll is almost vain, in barren ways;
Tis hard to go, and never garner grain, in harvest days.
Tis hard to plant in spring, and never reap.
My way has wound across the desert
And carrs infest
My path and through the flowing of hot
I plae-for rest.
Twas always so; when but a child I
lad
On my breast's breast
My weared little head; o'en then I prayed
As now for rest.
And I am restless still; 'twill soon be
oer;

When I shall rest.

The Tan That Won't Come Off.
Courteleigh looked with minged astonishment and apprehension at Miss Racquet, as she hurried from the tennis court and bathed her sunburned face in a barrel set outside the club house to catch rain water. The attention Courteleigh had been paying the fair maiden warranted the as-underwear that was interred in having her complexion maintained in a good state of preservation.
"Don't you worry," said Miss Tattle. "Nothing sets a tan like cold water. If a girl bathes her sunburn in ice water a few times she will acquire a tan that will endure through the winter, in spite of all the cold cream and skin emollients on earth. It simply won't come off. Gertie will have a tan like a Sandy Hook pilot because both the city. A girl who wants to stay out in the sun and still go back to town without tan bathes her face in water as hot as she can stand it."
"Cottages" More Like Palaces. Some idea may be gained as to the size of a Newport "cottage" from statistics regarding the "bal blanche" given there by Mrs. Herman Oelrichs. At one time there were 384 people within the walls of the villa and there were 414 different persons attending at different times. Three hundred and persons sat down to supper at one time.

I want the President of Washington would consider it a privilege to do so again. Does not this dilemma face Mr. Parker? If elected President and a number of great educators met in Washington and were invited to Booker Washington House or would he have a Jim Crow parney to which Mr. Washington might be shuffled, off? On the other hand, if Parker as President should ask Booker Washington to the White House, would not the whole South Carolina be turned and been bummed in the candidate?"
The fundamental law of the United States prohibits slavery and involuntary servitude but in portions of the South where the Democrats rule, lawless people have taken advantage of the lax observance of civil rights as they have held the darker huests and have state of ponage. This practice was very common until the Department of Justice under the Roosevelt administration started an investigation of the matter, which resulted in sending some the scoundrels to the penitentiary as it was popular as it used to be and with Roosevelt President it will be wiped out entirely during the next four years.

Some of the Southern journals are discussing the question: "Was the Fourteenth Amendment Ever Adopted?" When Roosevelt and a Republican Congress are elected they will be shown that the Fourteenth Amendment was not only adopted but that it will be enforced.
There is some hope that lynchings will be less frequent in Alabama at least when a special grand jury makes a report recommending the impeachment of the sheriff, the mayor and the chief of police in Huntsville and that the entire police force be reorganized.
Many of the men who wore the roosters upon their hats in 1832, and then wore Cleveland patches upon the seats of their breeches for four years, for McKinley in 1890 and 1900 and then vote for Roosevelt this year.
In South Carolina in 1900, nearly all of the votes cast were counted for Tillman's man Bryan. The Afro-American man was to be counted of their voting strength. That's Tillman's idea of "the consent of the governed."
What next, for Chicago? Four masked robbers entered a brilliantly lighted restaurant in a prominent part of the city Wednesday morning, lined with cashier and robbed the whole lot.

Hon. L. Milton Turner, ex-Minister to Liberia, who has been a Democrat for many years has returned to the Republican fold. Turner says there is no place in the Democratic party for the black man.
Flirty Japanese families have settled in Louisiana where they will start rice farms. They were welcomed by local Democrats. They are gentle admirers of colored men—from the Orient.
---
Parker has little to say, but if elected his acts will be in accord with the wishes of the men who made him a presidential possibility and those are all against the Afro-America dh.
As soon as McKinley was elected in 1896 confidence was restored and we have had prosperity ever since. Vote for him and his friends and let the good times continue.
---
The American people have a substratum of good sense, and although they may listen to the Democratic speakers, they will vote for Roosevelt and Falkbanks.
Under the Roosevelt administration there are more than 5,000 Afro-Americans in the public service of the country and they receive about $3,000,000 in salaries.
The Afro-Americans will never turn from the Republican party and go over to the Democrats who are daily murdering the people of their race in the South.
The Afro-American people know too well what Democratic success means to be beguiled by the smooth talk of the Democratic spellbinders.

There are 1,891 Afro-Americans employed by the District government at Washington, D. C., and their salaries aggregate about $850,000.
When the chilly days of November come, cover Parker out of sight by your votes for Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
Under the Roosevelt administration there are 13 Afro-Americans in the diplomatic and consular service.
President Roosevelt has the courage of his convictions, a trait admired by the American people.

THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER.
STANDS FOR HUMAN LIBERTY.
"If I could be absolutely assured of my election as president by turning my back on the principles of human liberty as enunciated by Abraham Lincoln, I would be incapable of doing it and unfit for president if I could be capable of doing it. I do not expect to be elected president by those who would close the door of hope against the Afro-American as a citizen. If I am elected to this high office it must be on my record as the executor of the law without favors or discriminations." This was President Roosevelt's comment on the speech of Senator Gorman attacking him for receiving Booker T. Washington as his guest at dinner at the White House.
THE BOOK WORLD
"Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its moral and religious policies. The resistance of those who with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because they believed it would influence the cause of important as this or otherwise to the resistance of political forces; that while having an influence in religious contexts played an important role in the formation of the third party. The Society of Friends led all the public meetings as to the employment of the public meetings as to what Jodl Gloarsson, Benjamin Lundy or Chas, of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, would outspoken utterances in the *P*-esyberian, Baptist and Methodist churches at an important place in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee."
"Some years ago one who had been a graduate of the college encounters to show the unfaithfulness of current history in dealing with the genesis of modern abolitionism, Osborne was entitled to be styled the first president of the writer, who challenged "the truth of Osborne to be measured before other Lundy or Garrison, but strangely overpowered by the strength of his striking like that of Lundy—John Woodman, a Friend, who was born in New York, and who was the first to count of his early life and career, exceedingly interesting and of his anti-slavery efforts, he visited North Carolina, where he sought to apose the concessions of Osborne against his "considerations on the Keeping of Negroes," which was published, had a wide circulation. It shows that his life was given to the idea of a movement with painstaking remembrance and counseling, from colony to colony, preaching remembrance and counseling with painstaking detail the "Free Soil Movement," "The Compromise," "The Nomination of Lincoln," and in their discussion exhibits a knowledge, information and breadth of knowledge, of many years' study and contact with the people.
Because of these things the author's with profit by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has bithorned unwritten, is brought forth by Mr. McHugh.
One of the most interesting chapters in the history of the Confederacy toward the "Negro Soldier." The author tells us that, during the institution of the Confederacy toward the "Negro Soldier," the author tells us that, the matter was finally decided; the master favored the enlistment of black soldiers; that the matter was finally decided; the master favored the bill authorizing the enlistment of Negro soldiers, was defeated by but one vote—that the Confederacy had desperate circumstances of the Confederacy became so visible that the leaders were forced to "cause," a draft order was issued to force the black soldier to fight under the Confederacy, and that the Confederacy made effective, the full of Richmond, and the sight of Jefferson Davis was at hand. The Confederacy especially interesting at under its banner.
There are other very interesting chapters involved and natural, and the author has written instructively.

I cannot consent to take the position that the door of hope—the door of opportunity—is to be shut upon any man, no matter how worthy, purely upon the grounds of race or color.—
"History of the Commune of 1871." I am not sure if it is the title of the book or the writen volume of history, dealing with one of those political convulsions which have so thoroughly shook France to its foundations.
The translator has performed the difficult task of translating the grammatical and pointed style of all French prose, and of which Lissagaray appears to have done it. The descriptive art of the author never lags from the opening to the closing chapters of this book of extraordinary happenings.
The Commune of 1871 was the culmination of the culmination of a criminal torpor that rested upon those in authority, and which followed the death of Louis Napoleon by wonderful armies under that prince of military strategists Von Moltke. The chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolving crucicles of the Revolution were again enacted in Paris and elsewhere upon the

HENRY WARD REECHER
Henry Ward Beecher. By Lyman Abbott. $1.75. Boston and New York
Dr. Abbott made the acquaintance of Beecher. Dr. Abbott gave a letter of his form that time forward. He attended Dr. Beecher's church in New York and gave an outline of the character of the man so much a history of the life of Beecher as a child. Dr. Abbott also he appeared to Dr. Abbott.
The career of Beecher as an anti-slavery reformer before and after the chapters, full of historical matter of the utmost value. Of Beecher's anti-slavery campaign in England in 1863, He reached London in the continent, his intention being to rest before selling for New York. But fate owed him to the English people, more especially the aristocratic and middle class of the South, and the man who dared to speak of the English people, more especially to invite every species of insult and indignity." This sympathy for the South was Mr. Beecher's arrival, assumed alarming proportions, and rumors were aftent in all probability, would be governed by his sentiment 'o intervene in the struggle of the South. Such was the state of feeling when Dr. Beecher reached England. Of course, great alarm was a prospect, and after much trouble, persevered, and after much trouble, persevered, and after much trouble, persevered, and after much trouble through England, speaking in behalf of the federal government, work of agents of the Conferency who were then seduously faming the name of the slave laborers. Any other man
would have weakened, but having promised his friends to prosecute the campaign of mobos. blood-red placards, insults, boot-legs, the British public consider perfectly legitimate to prevent an unpopular speaker from being heard.

THE CURSE OF CASTE
The Curse of Caste. By N. J. W. Le Cato. Dedicated to President Roosevelt, New York: Walker-Ellerson Publishing Co.
*Antipodal, as they may seem, the woman and Caste. The first leads to anarchy, the second to oligarchy. The middle way may the American people even walk there.*
This is a very interesting story, and being a contribution to the race question, it is important to highlight the mastery over the accepted literary norms, its interest is therefore enhanced.
It is the tale of a young boy developing intellect belonging to the prescribed class of black folk. Early in life he begins to cause the lowly people of color to be the lowly people of color. Being fair of complexion, and possessing all of the physical characteristics of the white race, he is called a "nigger," notwithstanding the name "Sally," his ostensible mother was a black Sally.
His attachment to his dark mother was the source of time she decided to return to the congenial climate of the South, because of the course of time she had been able to gile for existence at the North, against the tireless competition of New England and the South, by his plaques, worked as a farm laborer on the plantation of Colonel Custis, and comfort to his hard working mother, who had been a friend and an encounter with the "Jim Crow" cur, and soon after his arrival at the place where he was born, became the victim of petty persecutions, because of his race identity, which cultivated his life as a farm laborer was one dreary round of uninviting and monotonous life, and the raid of the raidship of old "Uncle Kish," a typical bellum nigrum, and Joe Watkins, a man with whom he hunted possums at night.
Denied admission to the local public school, he was allowed to grow in illiteracy and ignorance but for the philanthropic spirit adjoining plantation who gave him private lessons. As his young mind comprehended the nature of his apache, and he fretted like a caged bird, he heavily upon his sensitive spirit.
On a hunting expedition one night with the wife of a man who was innocent and unable to resist the toils of the law, and was condemned to a public whipping for a crime of which he was innocent, he and his comrade sole wished to the incident for which he had been convicted, and his commission was not however, by a stay of execution obtained by a friend, he returns to his lowly habitat, and is shortly afterward taken to the court in order that there might be no doubt that he was innocent. The rescue of this woman instead of attacking her neighbors only served to increase theirWhile in a delicatious condition, and nursed by his benefactress, a very dramatic case was brought to the "Great House" where he is installed as one of the family members. Treated as an adopted son, he is finally treated as an adopted son, he is finally second time he meets Theodore Rosewell, who once again comes into his life. Falling in love with a white girl living on an adjoining estate, his suffering because of a disparity between their race and stations that he is nearly driven crazy—was on his mind when he loved his love to the beautiful daughter of inexpressible contempt.

fair unprojudiced and patient hearing
and render us that justice which, we
merit at the hands of the Americas
people, Do this and we do not fear
the results.
"Phat we are unalterably opposed to
the inhuman and indiscriminate sys.
tem of depriving citizens of our coun:
try of life and liberty without due pro-
cess of law, and to the end that the
same be discontinued, we ask the peo
ple of the United States, the pulpit
and the press, the state and national
legislatures, to etcourage erystaliza
tion of such a public sentiment and
the enactment of such laws as wil
absolutely prohibit the perpetration of
these outrages that blacken every
page of the history of this country’s
civilization and places us in bad re
pute at home and abroad.
Condemn Crime,
We wish the American people to
understand that we join hands with
the best people of the country in em:
phasizing our condemnation of any
crime against the womanhood of the
land and have no sympathy for any
wretch who commits such a erime;
our appeal is in the interest of society
generally when we ask that the mob
be subordinate to the law.
Tn the South, because of intolerance
and race prejndice, a great many. of
its peaceful, and law-abiding citizens
are denied their civil and. suffrage
rights solely upon the ground of thelr
color. Mean, proscriptive, and humili
ating legislation is continually being
made a part of the statutory laws.
Discrimination against the Afro-Amer
fcan is running riot.
Tn the face of the organic law of the
nation, and in bitter opposition to the
enforcement of the, thirteenth, four.
teenth and fifteenth amendments, to
which all of these’states have pledged
allegiance; written In the'constitution
by the blood of thousands of our coun
trymen and the expenditure of billions
of treasure, in the face of the right
eousness of a just cause and by the
power of might, almost an entire race
in one portion of our country is denud.
ed of every right by unjust laws of
distranchisement.
Race Prejudice.
We view with alarm the rapid
spread of race prejudice in this coun:
try. For a number of years an active
and aggressive campaign has been
Waged, Which seeks to arouse a spirit
of race hatred in all seetions of this
land. Whatever may be the motive
actuating those engagéd in this unholy
work, we wish to show our country.
men that we are the Innocent victims
of an unjust and an unmerited aitack.
As-a race, we have striven earnestls
‘and patiently to enter into harmonious
relations with the life and activities of
the nation; to prove our loyalty and
@evotion to the country we love, and
to impress this nation with our sincer¢

Here in this great city are assembled
the nations of the earth. ‘The various

bestowed upon the Filipinos and nak

‘The ‘Mmerease’ Of Ainerieau diveress

In 1800 the percentage was 8, and if
the same rate of increase is kept up
the closing year of the twentieth cen-
tury will find 588 per cent of all
American marriages dissolved by the
courts. In other words, the year 2000,

more divorced than marvied persons

“I want to say a word also about
Minois. It was here the republican
party found its frst great leader, and
it is here that the party of Abraham
Lincoln has always enjoyed a faithful
zealous and successful support.
“By reason of her population and
material resources and wealth, Mlinois
ranks among the first of the states of
the Union. Her representation in
public life is in keeping with her
proud position among her sister
states. She has contributed many
great names to American history, but
she has never been more faithfully or
influentially represented in the coun-
cils of the nation than she is at this
time. No member of the United States
senate ranks higher, as an influential,
efficient, hard-working representative
of his state, than Senator Shelby M.
Cullom. He enjoys the confidence and
respect of every member of that body,
democrat and republican alike, and,
while I am not here to give advice or
to imtermediate with domestic affairs,
yet I trust I may, with propriety, make
the statement that all his colleagues
in that body, without respect to party
or section, will be, rejoiced to learn
that Ilinois intends to continue hon-
oring herself by continuing to honor
him with high trust he. now so credit-
ably holds.
“Senator Hopkins is a comparative.
ly new member in that body, but he
has already taken rank there as one
of the ablest and most brilliant men
in it. It was easy for him to pass
from his long and conspicuous service
in the house to his new field of labor
and duty, where, as the years go by,
he will add to his laurels and to the
prestige of his state
“It is impossible for me to speak of
your membership in the house except
collectivély. It is enough to say that
no state has a stronger representation
in that great parliamentary body ov-
er which presides that inimitable gen-
fus, sterling republican, grand patriot
and old-school republican, Senator Jo-
jseph G. Cannon.
“One word more about Illinois. In
one sense of the word it is not impor-
tant to the people of Ohio who is gov-
ernor of your state, but in another
and broader sense it is the common
concern of all the people of this whole
country.
“We want to see a victory in your
state all along the line, not only for
Roosevelt, hut also for Deneen,
“You are, fortunate in having so
able and so brilliant a leader as your
candidate for governor.
“He has the confidence and respect
not only of the people of Iinois but
also of the whole nation.”
