Marriage between the Sioux Indian women and frontier farmers has been largely encouraged by the fact that the sioux Indian maiden carries with her a neat little fortune. All of the Sioux have been receiving allotments from the government, and on several reservations heirship lands have been sold. The Indian girl who has learned English in government schools and has associated with whites long enough to cast off the more offensive tribal habits, appeals to the average farmer as the sort of woman who can help him in the task of opening the new country. And when money and an invisible mother-in-law are added attractions many of them yield and are proud of it. Our opinion is that marriage is a matter which concerns only the two persons who desire to enter that relation, but there has been such a hullaboo over the recent marriage of a white man and an Afro-American woman that we thought the above facts proved the position taken in that matter very inconsistent. It is terrible to contemplate the extent to which dishonest tradesmen will go in adulterating their goods, but we did fondly hope that, at least, druggists would not put up impure prescriptions for the sick but it seems that the hope was an extremely vain one in view of the report of the state board of pharmacy of Chicago to this effect: Out of 129 drug prescriptions sent out by the board to Chicago druggists to be filled 22 contained no trace of the drug called for: 66 were 80 per impure; ten 20 per impure and only thirty-one were pure. As a result the board will prosecute 100 druggists for selling impure drugs, and we hope they will get the extent of the law. It is bad enough for food to be adulterated which is intended for healthy people but drugs and medicines for sick people fo be so tampered with is damaging. We have read with considerable interest an article in reference to "sunaw men," that is white men who marry Indian women and become members of the Indian committees. And there are 4,500 of them among the Sioux Indians and they declare they would not trade their dusky wives for any others. President Roosevelt's message which was read in Congress Tuesday was a great state paper, one of the best he has ever written, and has been warmly commented upon all over the country. QUEER EFFECTS OF SUNSHINE. Stone as Well as Metals Expands Under Heat Rays. Every one knows that the heat of the sun will expand iron and steel. Stevenson's tubular bridge over the Menon's strait is 400 feet long. The heaviest train passing over it bends it just half an inch, yet on a July day, after the sun has been shining on it for several hours, it is found to be bent an inch and half. The heat of the sun acts on stone as well as metal, a fact which is proved by the Washington monument. It is 555 feet high, but it will be found to be about two inches higher in the evening than in the morning of a sunny day. A strange effect of sunshine was noted at Plymouth, where to lay the foundation of a sea wall the workmen had to descend in a diving bell. These bells had stupidly been fitted with convex circular glasses at the top. The sea was covered by the walls of the rays of the sun that the clothing of one of the workmen were set on fire, and that at no less than twenty-five feet below the surface of the water. SEIZED BY A CROCODILE African Boy Had Narrow Escape From Awful Death. A hunter in Africa tells some stories about crocodiles. He says: "One afternoon I went out to hunt lechwe (a kind of antelope), which were plentiful in the swamps. I wounded one splendid bull and gave chase, accompanied by two boys. We followed it across one or two channels, and finally it up in an arm of the stream about two feet deep. As he was holding on to the buck a crocodile—attracted, no doubt, by the blood which flowed from the wounded animal—shot and seized the boy by the leg below the knee. He hung on to the other boy, who had come up, and I arrived to the accompaniment of yells. Fortunately the crocodile was only a small one and, we managed to get the boy from him. The lechwe meantime made his scape, and I sent back to camp to retrieve the crocodile. His leg was badly lacerated, but with careful treatment he recovered soon."

Great care must be taken during the winter months to preserve the health of circus animals, as nearly all of them are susceptible to some form of disease. Monkeys take cold easily, and unless quinine is given them at night, they are unable to survive to result. When a monkey has to take quinine it makes a great fuss. This is why a mother tells her young hopeful when he makes a grimace over his medicine: "Come, now, down with it, and no more monkey faces!" Elephants have rheumatism; camels have skin disease, and all other mammals have a disease that be given lime juice to overcome the bad effects of stomach trouble. Frank Opinion. prominent English statesman when a boy at school was taken by his father to see Caryle and was bidden to treasure in the depths of his soul the words of wisdom which would fall from the great man. At first Caryle was taciturn and the boy, by way of opening the conversation, suitably said: "I have seen two philosophers to-day, for as we came along papa pointed out Mr. Herbert Spencer in a "bus." With majestic emphasis Caryle replied: "And have ye seen Herbert Spencer, laddie? Then ye've seen the most unending ass in Christendom." Disasters to British Warships. During a great storm in 1703 twelve men-of-war went down off the English coast with 1,800 men. Many lives were lost when the British warship Alaj took fire in 1807. The British warship Captain turned over in the Bay of Biscay in 1870, about 500 lives being lost. When the Sultan, the sister ship of the Captain, was sitting out at Portsmouth, a grim humorist, prophesying her possible fate (happily he proved to be wrong), chalked on her side: "Will leave on Thursday with mails for the Captain." Snail's Sense of Smell. According to the researches of M. Emile Yung, the sense of smell in the snail seems to be located not only in the feeling organs, but all over the body, as experiment proves that the snail can perceive odors by means of sensory cells which are placed in different parts of the body, quite apart from the special organs which might be his only means of sensation. THE APPEAL: A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER THE BOOK WORLD A POLITICAL HISTORY OF SLAVERY. A Political History of Slavery. By William H. Winters. In two volumes, $0.00. Net. $1.50. By mail, $5.00. New York: "A Political History of Slavery," by Wm. Henry Smith, is an elaborated story of the controversy over the slavery question, from the early days of the 18th century to the close of the Reconstruction "Bismarck prepared the war. Napoleon III. wanted it, the great bourgeois looked at it." In Chapter I, the author says: "If there is one thing clearly established, then men will form the Constitution; who, recognizing that such an institution was inconsistent with the great principles of civil liberty for which the colonies had contended, the basis of our public, retains it, we must extend the great charter a name so repulsive to free perceptions, more sensitive to the public sentiment of that day. There was no state free from the taint of slavery and the cruelty in the war, but it was in no sense dependent upon seational lines. Its ultimate extinction was generally confidently expected emancipation of Maryland, and it is not unreasonable that the African slave and no be imitation of the African slave would have followed in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky and "Opposition to the institution of slavery from various religious and educational economies and social policies. The resistance of those who with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because it was a violation of the rights of impotent as his, or succumbed to the violence of political forces; while that having been an important part of the important part in the creation of a third party. The Society of Friends led all other denominations in the employment of slaves. The Society of Friends Lloyd Garrison, Benjamin Lundy or Chasal of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, though there were not wanting to accept the Baptist and Methodist el-cheats at North Tennessee in Ohio. Kentucky and Tennessee. The author discusses with painstaking detail the origins of the Omnibus Bill. "Repeal of the Missouri Compromise," the "Nomination of Lincoln," the "wealth of information and breadth of knowledge, which could only result from the leading men of those stirring times." Vol. II. It opens with a chapter on "The History of the United States." In the history of nations weak walters are treated with scent respect. They become the symbols of oppression; they impel governments and civil ensembles to human progress. When Mr. Buchanan was brought face to face with men resolute in purpose to disrupt the political system, he construed the fundamental law to be the executive. Imagine Andrew Jackson, the first president of the 1860-61. Would members of Congress engaged in the work of disunion have been elected to the House? Would they must be bullied him CIVIL WAR TIMES There are other very interesting chapters in this book, devoted to natural, and the author has involved and natural, and the author has involved and natural. --- strategists Von Moltke In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolution were again being enacted in the country, and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the war in Germany are thus described by the author. Many new events—that is events which are not part of the history of that period are brought forward by the author in his work which considered the history of the point is an achievement of no inconsiderable degree. --- MONEY.

Henry Ward Beecher. By Lyman Abbott. $1.75. Boston and New York ANTISEMITISM. Antisemitism. By Bernard Lazare, Translated from the French, Voe. Ipo, Yves International Library Publishing Co. Recent events in Russia have given the author a great opportunity to translate from the French, and its pages must have been written many months before the publication of his painful interest to the Jewish question. The author is himself a Hebrew, and subject to all the rules of his book, but this circumstance does not seem to have biased his judgment in the forming of his book, with great caudor, and the blame is distributed with fairness. The fault is found with great caudor, and the blame is distributed with having brought much of the trouble to his people by manifest short The treatment given the subject is his histories between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps histories between Jews and Gentiles learn how much of proxesty has been carried on redpressedly between the Hebrews has resulted a greater mixture of race than Jews would, perhaps not believe in race distinctions whether these be founded upon the skin. So long, however, as the opinion prevails that races are distinct part and inferiority on the other part there is likely to be trouble between black and white. These are too many illustrative examples of this in the book and this book can be read with profit by many who are called upon to decide questions daily arising ...

No furrier can be an expert tailor. But combine the two and you have a cost lined with fur, that for appearance and fit would make the reputation of a smart tailor. That's just what we have done.

Two Minutes for Hot Water to Be Turned to Ice. Here are some of the experiences which David T. Hanbury records as typical of those he first met in Alaska: "The cold could not be kept out of even the most palatial examples of domestic architecture which Dawson City would at that time boast, but the author stuck to the cult of the morning tub. After I had melted the pall of ice on the 'alright' stove I poured some of the water two inches deep into the bathtub, which I had moved to the rear of the room, where there was no heat. Not two minutes had elapsed before I threw off my chamois pajamas in the front room and, opening the communicating door, stepped hurriedly into the bathtub, for I had no time to lose. Quick as I had been the atmosphere had been quicker and just as I stepped into the tub with both feet, wrenching with a great effort the soap from a beam hard by, I slipped on the newly frozen ice into the tub and over we went, soap, tub and myself, all separated in different quarters of the room. Those two minutes had sufficed to transmit my water into smooth and glassy ice." Whither Are We Drifting? The increase of American divorces has been remarkably rapid. No longer ago than 1870 only $3\frac{1}{2}$ per cent of marriages were dissolved by the courts. In 1900 the percentage was 8, and if the same rate of increase is kept up the closing year of the twentieth century will find 58.8 per cent of all American marriages dissolved by the courts. In other words, the year 2000, if we go on as we are going, will find more divorced than married persons living in the country. The divorces granted in all other civilized countries put together do not equal the number granted in the United States. And while our population is growing at the rate of 23 per cent per annum the number of divorced persons is increasing at the rate of nearly 70 per cent per annum. All of which may well make sober-minded citizens, who understand that the strength of a nation is its marriage alters rather than its divorce courts, asks themselves.

Shirley was an entertainer of considerable note, having spent many years on the campus of a seminarian. He was a member of a quartette that was well known through the city. The remainder of the quartette sang feelingly at the funeral services, which took place at Bethesda church Monday afternoon. Rev. Withers conducted the services. The remains were accompanied here from Denver by Miss Bell Buckner. Shirley was 34 years old, and leaves three sisters and a brother to mourn his loss. He carried insurance in the Northwestern Life Insurance Co. Many beautiful floral designs were the gifts of his many friends, for which his relatives extend thanks. RALPH T. GREY. One of Minneapolis' Pioneers Has Gone to His Reward. Mr. Ralph T. Grey, one of the pioneer settlers of Minneapolis, and one of its most highly respected citizens, died last Sunday, aged 74. His funeral was held Wednesday at St. Thomas' P. E. Mission, Ninth street and Fifth avenue S., which for thirty years had been the home of the Swedenborgian church of which he was one of the founders and most prominent members. The services were conducted by Rev. Dr. Mitchell, of St. Paul, pastor of the Swedenborgian church, who had known him thirty years. He came to Minnesota in the early seventies, and may be enumerated among the men who helped to build the metropolis of the state. Mr. Grey was a native of York, Pa. was well educated, and was a great student of political and religious subjects. Mr. Grey took an active part in the freeing of Elliza Winston, a slave girl, who was brought to Minnesota by a Mississippi family with the intention of spending the summer, and was most instrumental in bringing about the habeas corpus proceedings he suited in her gaining her release from slavery. He almost created a law at the time, but the courage of Mr. Grey, W. S. King, and others connected with him, prevented the Southern sympathizers from carrying out their plans to return the girl to slavery. A number of the best citizens were present at the funeral, including such men as Geo. A. Brackett, Dr. W. H. Leonard, Mr. and Mrs. W. L. T. Lanner, Mr. and Mrs. Frank G. O'Brien, Clark, Judge J. O. Pierce and others. Mr. Grey was a persona friend of Frederick Douglas, who he entered when he visited the city some years ago. The deceased was a man of excellent parts, and his place in the community will not soon be filled. He leaves his wife, a son, a brother and two granddaughters to mourn their loss. The remains were interred in Oakland cemetery, and at the grave Mr. W. R. Morris pronounced a most excellent eulogy over the deceased. The pall bearers were Messrs. C. Harper, A. La Force, J. Fite, J. L. Neal, T. H. Lyles, A. French. The floral tributes were very beautiful and numerous. The deceased had the distinction of being the only Afro-American member of the Territorial Pioneers.

In order to practice true economy it is necessary to distinguish between necessities and luxuries. Economy consists in getting the thing needed at the right time. One luckless man tells of having spoiled a $4 set of knives while economizing in the matter of purchasing a can-opener. After the destruction of the last knife he bought the much-needed article. He is not alone in such experiences. We can all plead guilty. Woman Disposes At one time during the life of the duke of Wellington it was currently rumored in London society that he was about to lead Miss Angela Burdett-Coutts to the altar. Some friend ventured to ask the famous soldier if this was indeed true, and received as answer, "I said she deserved to be a duchess; I did not say I would make her one." When the same friend repeated this to the young lady in question, the latter observed quietly. "I think he ought to have said could not 'would.'" A Huge White Affair. An odd hat just turned out by an artistic milliner was a huge white affair, with a very slight indication of a crown, bordered with a wreath of blue ribbon loops, and having hydrangeas, a pet flower of fashion, under the brim.
