Douglas, the manufacturer who, though a Democrat, was elected governor of Massachusetts, by 35,000 majority, while Roosevelt's plurality was 50%, wrote the "Democrat's" ink. He spent $34,300 in advertising his candidacy. President Roosevelt will shortly sign an order completed recently by the civil service and is. man canal commission extending 'the civil service regulations over the employees of the canal commission. The order emits as a form of excuse those appointed by the president and laborers. This will, of course, redound to the benefit of the Afro-Americans if they choose to avail themselves of it, as they usually are at the top in civil service examinations. The constitutionality of the Day bill, which prohibits co-education of white and Afro-American pupils in Kentucky, was attacked this week by John G. Carlisle upon a demurrier to an indictment found against Berea college. The case was only one of many cases where leave was given to file briefs, and the case was set for the February term of the Madison county court court. Berea college, it is said, is not now receiving Afro-American pupils, but at the beginning of the school year they were admitted and the college was indicted. It is expected this will be an issue, and will go to the court of appeals. Berea was founded for the benefit of Afro-Americans, and for many years there was no trouble on the score of color, but recent events led to crowd of Afro-Americans out. The idea of going themselves seems never to have entered their heads. The New York presbytery, the local church board of the Presbyterian church, voted against the establishment of a separate presbytery for Afro-Americans by an overwhelming majority at a meeting there Monday. The vote followed a two hours' debate, in which Rev. Charles H. Parkhurst, John C. McCarthy, and the president pated. The presbytery has 185 members, and of these only three voted in favor of a separate organization for Afro-Americans. All the presbyteries in the country are now voting on the same question, and when the vote is in favor, the minister will be taken to a national body. We fail to be able to understand how these people can fatter themselves they are Christians who do not accept a brotherhood of man as well as the charity of God, who in his misery cares of one of his brothers, he made all the earth. Many of these so-called Christians who seek separation of the races on earth will find when they go to hell that there is no separation there. TIMBER LANDS OF MEXICO. Immensely Valuable Tracts Still Standing In What Creativity Standing in that Country. The covenant of forests in the United States is the cause for the recent attention which has been given to timberlands in Mexico. This country has waited a specially on timber which only awaits the advent of the railroads to make them of enormous commercial value. In the southern part of the republic the hard woods, such as mahogany, ebony and cedar, have long been exploited and the supply is growing very limited within the access of transportation facilities. Large forests of such timber still exist, however, in the more remote sections. In the central and northern parts of the republic there are large tracts of soft pine, oak and walnut forests, especially on the western slope of the central mountain range, where there are as yet almost no transportation facilities, and along a wide strip of land extending wastard from the gulf coast. BEGINNING OF NOTABLE ELM. Fine Tree From Slip Planted by Revo lutionary Hero. A magnificent elm tree on the Walter Wellington estate, in the east part of Lexington, dates from 1732, and was planted by the father of Jonathan Harrington, who was a small drummer boy in the revolutionary war. The boy's father was a farmer and sold his produce in Salem. On returning home from market one day the horse was weary and lagging in his gait; so to urge him along Farmer Harrington plucked a small sapling elm from the roadside to encourage a swifer gait. When he got home the sapling was so straight and evidently alive that it fell in the ground. The switch has become the center ground. The trees notice for its size and five proportions by every sightseeer who comes to this historic town—Boston Transcript. Gondolas and Gondoliers Gondola's and Gondoliers. A tourist writes: "Like most characteristic objects appertaining to Venice, the gondola is suitable to the place. Even as the hansom cab suits the gondola, the car or the jaunting car suits Ireland, so the gondola is the vessel for Venice. You cannot separate the lagoon from the gondola. One completes the other." The gondolier is a man given to many oaths and imprecations, of which the most terrible is, "The thy saint is a rascal who does not know. how to make a decent miracle." The gondoliers are not as much given as they used to be to the singing of the sonorous verses of Tasso by moonlight in their musical patols. Occasionally an outburst of melody is secured by a traveler's coins and there is always singing, playing and dancing at the inevitable festa. Privileged Guest Of a prominent lecturer of London an acquaintance says: "On one occasion he was the guest of a friend of mine, a busy Liverpool merchant, and when the popular lecturer returned from the hall he asked for all sorts of impossible dishes and liquid concoctions peculiar to abstainers—a demand which somewhat upset the routine of the household. When in bed his nervous temperament was tried; he could not bear the ticking of the clocks, so he paraded the house in the small hours of the morning and stopped them all, consequently of the guests who had it. He was broused by violent bell-ringing; but the guest was not to be distressed, so he跑 again and ordered the servants back to their rooms and locked them in and then went back to bed." When first the crocs thrusts its point of gold Up there, the will snow-drift garden mold. And folded green things in dim woods. Their crinkled spears, a sudden tremor into veins and mayes me kith and kin To eat wild-born thing that thrills and blows. Sitting beside this crumbling sea-coat Here in the city's ceaseless roar and din, Far from the brambley I used to Far from the rustling brooks that slip Where the Neponset alders take their glove. I shave the tremulous sense of bud and brier And articulate arders of the vine. —Thomas Baldry Aldrich. Only One at Home. Philip Verrill Mighels, the writer, being in London not long ago, informed Mrs. Mighels one morning that he had several errands, and would not be back for several hours. He was going to see a lawyer, a doctor, and a literary agent, and after his business was attended to, he would gratify an old wish of his and go to see Goldmith's grave. Mighels ried, to Goldmith's surprise, he returned "Why?" exclaimed his wife, "how did you accomplish so much in such a short time?" "Because," said Mr. Mighels, "the lawyer, the doctor and the literary agent were all out. The only one in was Goldmith." Reindeer Valuable Mail Carriers The capacity of the reindeer for team work is remarkable. His hoofs are very broad and not penetrate the snow crusts. His average weight is about 400 pounds. He will swiftly draw a sled carrying 600 pounds, and with this load can cover thirty, fifty, and even ninety miles a day. The reindeer teams now carry the mails from Kronenberg to the Northwest of 650 miles—the most northward post route in the world. No carriage is carried for the deer. In Mexico the cargador, or carrier, transports bundles so weighty that ordinary men could not even lift them. It is not unusual for him to carry a load of 400 pounds on his head or shoulders. White Men Gather Cotton. White farm labor is producing an increasing proportion of cotton, and the dictum that the negro is absolutely indispensable for cotton culture is fast becoming a wornout tradition. THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER THANKSGIVING ON THE FARM Oh! the farm was bright, Thanksgiving With its stacks of hay and shocks of corn, its knaps heaps in the rambling shed, and its apples brown and green and red, and in its troughs. With them were filled and running With the thorns the farm would With all the things that $ \varphi $ farm could keep. keep. In barrel and bin and goodly heap. Hung on the rafters and hid away. Oh! The farm was a goodly sight that day. And here and there were the Jersey stock The ship and horses—old Prince and Jock— The turkeys and geese and awkward cat And the goat that made the children laugh. gray- Oh! the farm was a pleasant place to live! Out back of the house the orchard stood. Then the brook and the chestnut The sawnwalt where the children play. The walnut grove and the cranberry. The walnut grove and the cranberry. The woodchuck hole and the barking dog. The wintergreen and the robber's cave (Whorein who entered was counted Uncle Isaac's Matchmaking "Well, I declare!" said Aunt Nancy Winters, "it's good see a turkey fat up niceir that one! I tell you, Pa. It's too good for jest you an' me to set down to. Hadn't we ought to invite somebody to help eat Thanksgiving' dinner?" Aunt Nancy paused in her task of stripping the feathers from the turkey in question, and beamed placidly upon Uncle Isaac through her gold-bowed 'specs'. Uncle Isaac Winters rubbed his hand together globally, and a genial smile overspread his face. "Just like you, Nancy, to think about somebody sharin' your blessins'. To be sure, to be sure, have somebody in to help dispose of that feller. Who'll you invite?" "Well," said Aunt Nancy, "that's real good of Marietty. There'll be a lot of work fixin' the vegetables an' such, an' I guess she can help me quite a little. I'm real glad she comin' poor soul!" The next morning when Uncle Isaac, in his Sunday clothes, came into the kitchen and lifted his chin high so Aunt Nancy could adjust his collar button and necktie, the dear old lady said: "If I was you, Pa, I look at the meethouse man' pick out the longestlookin' person there—anybody you think inn' nowhere to Thanksgiving' dinner—an' ask 'em to come along home with you." "Anybody," asked Uncle Isaac, into the settin'-room an' put some wood in the stove." Marietta stopped chopping cabbage and filled her arms with wood from the wood box. She looked very nice in her best black dress and lace trimmed apron. The warm kitchen had given a flush to her cheeks and the pink ribbon at her throat was very becoming. She went through the dining-room and the sitting-room. Aunt Nancy, listening intently in the kitchen, heard the sudden dropping of the armful of wood. "My sakes alive!" she said, " whatever shall I do. They both get mad an' go home most like. Dear, dear, what did Pa go an ask him for?" "Well," said Aunt Nancy, reflectively. "Ive a notion to ask Mariety Peabody, poor, lonesome old maid! I don't know as there's a soul in the village that would enjoy a nice piece of breast meat an 'sage stump. Hubbard squash an 'nature man. I am nausee plie a pumpkin pie better'n she would. I do believe she lives pretty slim sometimes." Aunt Nancy sighed a motherly sight and looked thoughtfully, at the big turkey lying across her lap. "Pears to me Mariety done a foolish thing when she give Silas Plummer the mitten the way she did years ago. I wish she was married 'n settled down in a home of her own. Silas Mariety she's a housekeeper—neat as wax—an seems to me they could be real happy together." Uncle Isaac sat down on the edge of the box and boxed it and looked at Aunt Nancy's kind old face. "Spope we try an' make a match betwit 'em," he suggested. "It's high time that old spat of their n' was cleared up. Let's see—it's as much as ten year, ain't it, since they quit speak' to each other? I say let's ask 'em both here to dinner to-morrow an' see how it' turn out." Aunt Nancy stared at her amusement. "Isaac Winters," she said, "be you clean gone crazy? Why, the very idea! A pretty Thanksgivin' it would be, wouldn't it, with the two glar' in' at each other an' never say' a woo!' My! my! you don't know Marriet Peabody, I guess' of Silas Plum either. I think you could pacify 'em at this late day." "Well," uncle Isaac, meekly, "you know best, sweet! You' always know best. I thought mebby it would work best, but that's all a fool man knows about sech things. Think 'bite hup up an' drive down to invite Marriet? Jest as soon if you want I should." Aunt Nancy turned the big carsey over laboriously. "Why, yes, Pa," she said, "you better go. Give Mariety my compliments an' ask her to spend Thanksgiving with us; we're his' goin to meetin to mow she' like y ride him in the cutter." When Uncle Isaac returned, an hour later, he remarked: "Mariety seemed awful tickled about your invite. Nancy, an' she said she wan' goin to meetin she' hadn't a new thing to wear—an' she'd come over early an' help fix things for dinner an' her could visit long she' said. "Back, You! This Is My Week" ```markdown ``` ```markdown ``` "Well," said Aunt Nancy, "that's real good of Mariety. There'll be quite a lot of work fixin' the vegetables an' such, an' I guess she can help me quite a little. I'm real glad she's comin' poor soul!" The next morning when Uclea Isaac, in his Sunday clothes, came into the kitchen and lifted his chin to give Nancy a pillow to hold his collar button and reckle, the dear old lady said: "If I was you, Pa, I look all over the meet-in-house' an' pick out the lonesomest-looking' in person there—anybody you think ain't invited nowhere to Saskigivin' dinner—an' ask 'em to come along home with you." "Anybody," asked Uclea Isaac. "Did you say anybody, Nancy?" Aunt Nancy started swiftly toward the oven door. "Land sakes! I believe that turkey's boilin' dry," she said, as she opened the oven door. "I'll put the pot over hot into the sizzling roasting pan. Her rosy face peeked into the big, savory-smelling oven. "Yes," she said, "ask anybody you think looks lonesome." Ursule Isaac drove off to meeting with a merry jingling of sleigh bells. He chuckled to himself as he drove along. "I shouldn't wonder if Silas Plummer would be lookin' kind of lonesome to day," he said. "Great guns! Who'd ever think I'd take to matchmakin' at my time o' life?" When the Thanksgiving sermon had been preached and the last hymn sung, the congregation moved toward the doors. Silas Plummer had ordered to go his lonely way. But Uncle Isaac, unhitching the old white horse, called to him. "Hofd on, Silas," he said, "don't you want to ride along with me? An, say, by the way, Nancy said she'd like first-rate to have you eat Thanksgiving' dinner with us." Silas Plummer hesitated—and was fost. "Much obliged, Uncle Isaac," he said; and Aunt Nancy are very kind, but I was calculatin' on goin' to the restaurant for my dinner. "Restaurant nothin'" cried Uncle Isaac, jewellily. "Come, pile in here an' we'll be gain'. Nancy' will be jest rickled to death!" But privately Uncle Isaac wasn't so sure of that. "Merciful Moses!" he thought, "mebly I've gone an' put my foot in it. But we'll wait an' see how it turns out. If Nancy scolds, I'll tell her the poor fellow looked lonesome, 'a sure enough he did." The cutter stopped at the side door with a jingle of bells. Aunt Nancy came to the porch and looked out. Of that, she said to herself, "that in the world possessed Pa to go an' do that! My land! what shall I do? Here's Mariety an' there's Sillas, 'a they won't speak—I know they won't!" Mariety was in the kitchen chopping cabbage, and did not see the newcomer, who was ushered into the sitting room by Aunt Nancy, whose hospitable soul was the resolved upon flicting emotions, love, "Mariety," she said when she returned to the kitchen. "I guess that cabbage is chopped fine enough now. Won't you step The skating pond with its fringe of bay. Ohi! the farm was a pleasant sight that day! The big home-barn was a place of joy For the roping girl and the climbing boy. With clams and mows and ladders to mount, Horses and oxen and sheep to county, Horses and sheep to county, Tunneling hay and fashioning dens. Helping the men to do up the chores, helping the men to do up the chores, Letting some work come with the play. Ohi! the farm was a tall playground. Oh! the farm was a jolly place to stay! With the partry shelves were loaded down With cakes that were plump and rich and brown. With milk and pumpkin and mince, and jolles and jams and preserved Cranberry sauce and puddings and rice, and potato salad. Vegetables, breads and bonbons sweet. A ginger brown turkey and plates of meat. Sauces fixed in the daintest ways. Ob, the farm was bright Thanksgiving morning. The farm clear on the hay and corn. The guests came early with laugh and And the boys and girls scattered about. Climbing through window instead of door. Racing from barn to corn-crib or mill. Shouting and laughing with glee, until Twas pleased upon the farm that day hmaking into the settin'room an' put some wood in the stove." Marietta stopped chopping cabbage and filled her arms with wood from the wood box. She looked very nice in her best black dress and lace-trimmed apron. The warm kitchen had given a flush to her cheeks and the pink ribbon at her throat was very becoming. She went through the dining-room and into the sitting-room. Aunt Nancy, listening intently in the kitchen, heard the sudden dropping of the armful of wood. "My sakes alive!" she said, "whatever shall I do. They'll both get mad an' go home most likely. Dear, dear, what did Pa go an' ask him for?" In the sitting-room the wood lay on the rug carpet at Marietta's feet She stooped to pick it up, but Silas was already gathering the sticks to gether. In some awkward way their hands touched, and they looked at each other. "Mariety," he said, "can't we overlook the past? Can't we be friends again?" His earnest dark eyes were looking into hers with the old look Marietta held out her hands, and he caught them in his. The next moment his arm was around her and she was ceying softly upon his shoulder. He looked at her with the old way which used to be so pleasant to her until that misunderstanding came between them. He took her hand and led her into the sunny kitchen where Aunt Nancy was about to take Uncle Isaac to task. The good old people started in as tonishment as Marietta and Silas enered hand in hand. The lovers looked ten years younger. Silas Plummer, you an' Uncle Isaac have made a real Thanksgiving for me." "An 'me too!" chimed in Marietta with 'bushing cheeks. "Oh, Aunt Nancy, we've made it up an 'we're as good friends as ever!" She looked proudly up at the tall figure at her side. Love was in her eyes—love and pride. And in the face of Silas Plummer was a look of happiness which had long been a stranger there. The dinner was a great success. The big turkey was roasted to a delicious brown, the cranberry sauce was rich crimson, the snapper salad toes white as snowflakes, and the Hubbard cheese was golden yellow. The mousse was Aunt Nancy's best and the coffee was of her famous brewing. It was a glerious dinner and Uncle Isaac said so after the guests were gone. "But land, Nancy! I believe them two wouldn't have known the differ if it had been plain salt pork an johnny-cake. My! my! to think what a good matchmaker I am. It's just amazin', alit it?" And Aunt Nancy smiled serenely and said it was. Luschman—"My wife wanted to know all about what I had been doing when I got home last night. Klubman—"Why didn't you put her off?"
