Childs, a member of the Chicago police force for eight years, has been promoted under civil service rules to the position of police desk sergeant; and, while it was quite credible to the powers that be, he the Chicago department is not entitled to the distinction claimed for it, of being the first to place an Afro-American officer in a commanding position. Oscar P. Rabouin of Chicago was formerly a detective sergeant in Housetown, and he was the Chicago force for twenty-eight years. There were many Afro-Americans who held commanding positions years ago among them, Octave Ray, who was captain of the central police station at New Orleans; Peter Joseph, who was also a captain of the Louisiana police force; Hey, both detective sergeants, and Ed Whitteley, a detective sergeant in Galveston, Tex. Horatio J. Homer is a police sergeant at Boston, Mass., and there are and were others in various places. Again we say it was very nice of Chicago to give Sergeant the place he was born in. He was the first to do the right thing toward a deserving man albeit he is an Afro-American. It might be well to add that Mr. Childs might, could, or should be filling a more exalted position than that of desk sergeant he was born at Marian, Ala., in 1863 and is a graduate of Talladega college, Talladega, Ala. He came to Chicago in 1886. During his first four years he was employed as storekeeper for the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul district dining car service at the Louisville hotel carrier in Chicago and also assistant postmaster at Marion and must be a man of considerable intelligence to win these positions on merit. --- If it were not so exasperating it would be really amusing to contemplate the vaporings of such men as Vardaman who claims that because a man is black he should not be allowed to be anything but a field hand and a teacher, he should be the graduates of the industrial schools does anything but teach and preach. He says "under white direction black men do well and some are wise enough to accept white advice and direction." Now what would any same man think of expressing his opinion from a given state of state: "I am talking about white folks. There is no other social class. Under the law and in the courts of justice, in commerce and in trade there is no prejudice against the nigger, but he has no social or political rights that a white man is bound to respect, that a black man will have any. He will never vote in this state again, because he is utterly incapable of understanding the genius of self-government." And this too, the face of the woman, the movements of Afro-Americans in the past and present. Vardaman is a living evidence of the fact that the fool killer is dead. A SECRETARY OF BABIES. A secretary of babies is the latest suggestion for President Roosevelt's cabinet. The Vice B Stockham, speaking on "The Cure of Race Suicide" before the Chicago Society of Anthropology suggested the establishment of a "department of human culture" to be headed by a cabinet member. The department, which a department, the lecturer said, should come the subjects of home making, home building, domestic science, marriage and divorce, tokology or child study, and a string of other subjects. The new departments should supervise the building of comfortable and sanitary dwellings, regulate marriages by a system of preparations and quality standards, and establish other grooming, kindergarten, all under the direction of experts. A literature bureau in connection with the department should disseminate knowledge of all the sciences involved in the scientific propagation of the species and gastroonomy. SENATOR S. M. CULLOM Senator Shelby M. Cullom has been in Illinois for a couple of weeks circulating among his constituents. Everywhere he has been greeted with cordiality and affection. Illinois is a great state and the senator ranks in intellect, power, integrity and industry with the representatives of any other state in the U.S. Senator Cullom is one of the most influential members of the highest legislative body in the world. He has the love and respect of his colleagues and stands high with the Roosevelt administration. The people of Illinois, the state of Lincoln, Grant and Logan, are proud of their great statesman. Shelby M. There is an interesting controversy going on in some daily papers in reference to the amount necessary for a woman to supply herself with clothing for one year some claimants do $50 of course the women are men who don't know anything about it apparently, but those who know, know that the two sums mentioned will hardly suffice for ninety-nine out of each hundred women and of ordinary women and the sum mentioned would not buy the gifts of some other women. Congratulations are in order for James H. Hayes of Richmond, Va. upon his appointment as consul at Gaudaloup, French West Indies, and doubles less eminently fitted to fill the position with credit. It is, however, said he will decline to accept the position. "The Life Worth Living" is the title of a book now in press by Thomas Dixon, Jr., the author of the infamous "The Leopard's Spot" and "The wannasm." Judging by the author's words his ideal is a midnight murderer. Appointed Consul at Puerto Plata. Mr. Herbert S. Wright, an Afro American lawyer of Des Moines, Iowa has been appointed United States consul at Puerto Plata, Santo Domin HYMNS OF A HIGH NUMBER. Curious: Rule Prevalis in the English Church at Monte Carlo. A curious fact anent the service held in the English church at Monte Carlo is that no hymn under thirty-seven is ever sung there. The reason for this may not be generally known. It is as follows: A member of the congregation, a certain English peer, once went to the rooms on Sunday, immediately after the morning service, and put the maximum on thirty-two, the number of the last hymn. It turned up and the "inspiration" was widely talked about, as such things are in the frivolous society of the principality. The next Sunday the little church was crowded and the last hymn being a low number, an unseemly rush to the rooms took place directly. It was announced. Curiously enough, the bank turned up and the bank was badly hit. On the following Sunday the church would not hold all the "worshipers," but their intent was frustrated, as all the hymns were "off the board" and have been so ever since. ODD MEANS OF LIVELIHOOD. Occupations of Orientalists That Appear Strange to Us. The trade of tooth-stainer, followed in Eastern Asia, is as odd a calling as any. The natives prefer black teeth to the whiter kind, and the tooth-stainer, with a little box of brushes and coloring matter, calls on his customers and stains their teeth. The process is not unlike that of blacking a boot, for a fine polish is given to the teeth. The pigment used is quite harmless. In Arabia the trade of "gossipier" or "gossipier" collects all the news, little tattle, jokes and stories he can get hold of, and then goes from house to house retaliating. If he has a good manner, and can adapt his recitals to his audiences, he makes a very fair income. Howke as Farmers' Friends HAWKS in FARMERS FRIENDS Uncle Sam has been studying hawks. Of 124 stomachs of marsh hawks which were examined 45 per cent of the animals being feeding on mice, 8 per cent on other small mammals, 18 per cent on reptiles, frogs and insects, and only a very low percentage on poultry and small birds. We do not find that this bird is so very destructive to quail and partridges after all; and it is under this latter supposition that most sportsmen shoot hawks when they find opportunity. Uncle Sam concludes that the marsh hawk is a beneficial bird and that its presence and increase should be encouraged in every possible way—Field and Stream. THE BOOK WORLD A POLITICAL HISTORY OF SLAVERY. A Political History of Slavery. By William of the United States. By Whitelaw. Read. Two volumes: 5vo. Net. $1.50. By mail, $5.00. New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons. "A Political History of Slavery," by Wm. Henry Smith, is an elaborated story of controversy over the slavery question, from the early days of the 18th century to the close of the Construction period in the United States. There is an introduction by Whitlaw and which gives quite an extended criticism of these two very instructive vol Mr. Reid says: "This Political History of the events that comes from having seen many of the events from the inside as they occurred, and that comes from the entire range of the subjects, and from access to much unpublished Information and Governor Brough, in the records of the state office held during a critical part of the war, and the communication with some of the actors." Again: "As time roes on fuller justice, the boundaries by which a free people enlarged the bounds of freedom, to communities and Anglo-Scottish magons for the correction of wrongs and the better development of the country," Greeley first among public educators, to Chase and Seward, Stanton and Welles, and finally to the teachers, and finally to the peer, if not the superior of them all, and certainly the politician of the list, Abraham Lincoln. In Chapter I, the author says: "If there is one thing clearer about the men who formed the Constitution; who, recognizing that such an institution was inconsistent with the great principles of civil liberty for which the colonies had contended, and that the people of the Republic, refrained from inserting our great charter a name so repulsive to freedom, we must conclude that they had put the punishment of that day." There was no state sentiment of that day. There was no state feeling that it was injurious to society in no sense dependent upon sectional lines; its ultimate extinction was general. It was to be the rule. This came early north of Maryland, and it is not unreasonable to believe that the emancipation of the African slave trade, emancipation would have followed in Delaware, North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee. "Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its origin, or from economic and social policies, or from social issues such as with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because of its impotent as his, or succeeded to the violence of political forces; while that having its source in religious feelings played a major role in the third party. The Society of Friends led all other denominations in the employment of the priesthood. Lloyd Garrison, Benjamin Lundy or Chas. of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, outspoken utterances in the P-ebsterian, Baptist and Methodist churches at an especially in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. "Some years ago one who had been conspicuous as a leader in the anti-slavery contest endeavours to show the inability of the people to do something with the genesis of modern abilitism, and the reason why the people are not the people who are entitled to be styled the first hostage and principal. Get the all of the writer who is callened "the truth of history," clearly established the claims of Osborne to be mentioned before either Lundy or Garrison, but strangely over-wicked the time of the other two capitalists, strikingly like that of Lundy. John Woolman, & Friend, who was born in New Jersey about 1720. Then follows an account of his early life and career, exceed- from the first time of his time of service, "When about 26 years of age he visited North Carolina, where he sought to arouse the consciences of slave-holders and wrote an essay entitled "Considerations on the reaping of the legates." After his death in 1812, his journal, which was published, had a wide circulation. It shows that his life was given to the work of emancipation. He traveled from the各地 to the preaching remonstrating and counseling. The author discusses with painstaking detail the "Free Soil Movement." The Combigus Bill, "Repeal of the Missouri Combigus Bill," "The Remission of the Combigus Bill," and in their discussion exhibits a wealth of information and breadth of knowledge, which could only result from the leading men of those first time. Vol. II opens with a chapter on "The Outbreak of the War." in which he says: "In the history of nations weak rulers are treated with scant respect. They become the dupes of Knaves, the instrument of oppression; they imperil governments and invite disorders to enter in; they are the real enemies to human progress. When Mr. Buchanan was brought face to face with men resolute in purpose to disrupt the Union and overthrow the government, he construed the fundamental law to be as impotent as he was in fact as the executive. Imagine Andrew Jackson, the executive head of the government in 1860-61. Would members of Congress engaged in the work of disunion have been welcomed at the White House? Would they have bullied him CIVIL WAR TIMES Civil War Times. By Daniel Watt O'Connor. $10.95.vo, p. 421. $15.10. Indiana: Dobbs- sons. The war of 61-5 will never cease—at least in the present generation, to be a perennial and never falling topic of abhorrent and dishonest history. Because of the war, it was a war of giants; because many of those giants still survive its vicissitudes—its "hair breadth escapes, and the immimதுal, but as much as the brachy, its long and dreadful marches." It's Gettysburg. The clownings, because the final of that conflict profoundly influenced the civilizations of the world; because its echoes still re-are all the various activities of American life. Because of these things the author's volume is interesting. It can be read as a series of stories and many denials of the great strife which his hitherto remained unwritten, is brought forth by Mr. Howe. One of the most intangling chapters is the volume of the new deathing, with the relation of the Confederacy toward the "Negro Soldier." The author tells us, that nearly every important Confederate commenter has been given the black soldiers; that the matter was finally bated in the Confederate Senate, as the bill authorizing the enlistment of Negro children was dedicated by but one vote. The "Sacred War" in 1900. The "The Desperacy circumstances" of the Confederacy became so visible that the leaders saw the doom of Richmond and the cause of the war. The leader of the black soldier to fight under the Conferente flag, but that before it could be made effective, the fall of Richmond, and the loss of Anderson Davis was at hand. This chapter is especially interesting at the under its banner. There are other, very interesting chapters in the book, devoted and natural, and the author has solved them. ... HISTORY OF THE COMMUNE OF 1871. History of the Commune of 1871. Translated from the French of Lissagaray by Eleanor Marx Aveling, New York International Publishing Co. "History of the Commune of 1871" translated from the French of Lissagaray by Eleanor Marx Aveling, is a well written volume of history, dealing with one of those political convulsions which have been frequently shook France to its foundations. The translator has performed the difficult art of preserving the peculiar epigrammatic and pointed style of all French prose, and of which Lissagaray appears to be a master. The descriptive art of the author never lags from the opening to the closing chapter of this book of extraordinary happenings. The Commune of 1871 was the culmination of French weakness and imbecility—the culmination of a criminal torpor that rested upon those in authority, and which followed swiftly upon the heels of the prostration of the French by the wonderful armies under that prince. strategists Von Molfke In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revoltation were again being enacted in Paris and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the war in Germany are thus described by the author: Bismarck prepared the war, Napoleon III. wanted it. The great bourgeoise looked on. They might have stopped it by an unknowing of the war's end. The man's himself with a grimace. He saw in this war our certain ruin; he knew our terrible inferiority in everything; he could have been a very poor man. He felt that he was a real man. He said he had a real, the only of the others, and supported by this strength of opinion, he said, "What is the difference? We shall combat it as treason." Poor France: Who will have two six years of humility in the poor, those who for six years contended for thee with the Empire. "While the upper classes sell the nation for a few hours of rest, and the liberals sell the power of their nests without the empire a handful of men under their unprotected, rise up against the still air-powerful despot. On the one hand young men who do the power of their own goes, the people in faithful children of 1789, resolved to continue the work of the Revolution; on the other hand work-long men into the study and conquest of the rights of men. You will give the price attempts to split their forces, to seduce the workingmen." The author then follows up with a deposition of the political struggle between the contending factions which finally burst forth in all the horrors of the Commune. Mr. Marseilles Toulouse and Narbon were soon to be converted into veritable human slaughter houses, in this fratricidal struggle which for madness and unhearsed science made the wardfracor was the history of the human village. Many new events—that is events which have hitherto been obscure to the student author, and which he has not authored. In his work which considered the point is an achievement of no inconsiderable point. --- MONEY, BANKING, AND FINANCE. Bolle's Money, Banking and Finance.

HENRY WARD BEECHER Henry Ward Beecher. By Lyman Abbe. Houghton, Mifflin & Co. New York Houghton, Mifflin & Co. Dr. Abbott made the acquaintance of Mr. Beecher, a mature friend of his from that time forward, and a close friend of Brooklyn and is thus well qualified to give an outline of the character of the man, not so much a history of the life of Mr. Beecher as of his character as he appeared to Dr. Abbott. The career of Beecher as an anti-slavery reformer before and during the civil war period of the polls in the chapters, full of historical matter of the utmost value. Of especial importance is the chapter on Mr. Beecher's life. He reached London in the autumn of 1853, and the year from a season on the autumn, his intention being to rest beered on the North Bank of New York. At the end of the otherwise. At that time the sympathy of English people, more especially the aristocratic and moneyed classics, and the man who dared to speak South, and the man who dared to speak in behalf of the American cause was an inviting to the South. In the end of the indiginity this sympathy for the South and hatred of the North had, at the time of Mr. Beecher's arrival, assumed alarm to the people who were in the service of the British government, in all probability, would be forced by public sentiment to intervene in the struggle with the people of the North. Such was the state of feeling when Dr. Beecher reached England. The Americans were搭乘 the London train, and the country was all more such a prospect, and after much trouble, persuaded Dr. Beecher to make a lecturing tour of the land. He was at the time of the�, of the Federal cause. By this they hoped to counteract the work of agents of the Conferency who were then seduously fans-like and so much as to to produce an experience of speeches and publications. Any other man would have weakened, but having promended to it courageously in spite of the stuck in the other people's hands, the goodness of the country was in the same order of things and all the other annoyances which the British public consider perfectly legislated. The men are an unpopular speaker and the friends to prosecute the campaign from being heard. ANTISEMITISM Antsemitism. By Bernard Lazare. Translated from the French, 8vo. Pp. 384. Cloth gilt top. $2. New York: International Library Publishing Co. Recent events in Russia have given this book a peculiar timeliness. It is a translation from the French, and its pages must have been written many months before those outbreaks gave a most painful interest to the Jewish question. The author is himself a Hebrew, and subject to all the odium that is implied in the title to his book, but this circumstance does not seem to have biased his judgment in the forming of his opinions. The case is certainly stated with great candor, and the blame is distributed with fairness. The fault is found to be not all on the part of the Gentile world, but the Israelite himself is charged with having brought much of the trouble to his people by manifest shortcomings. The treatment given the subject is histiocentric, and the differences between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps the most important difference is how learn much of prescribing has been carried on reciprocally between the He-terans, who has resulted a greater mixture of race and ethnicity, would, perhaps, be adjusted. The authorities not believe and distinctions whether these be founded upon the skin. So long, however, as the opinion prevails that races are distinct from each other, the part and inferiority on the other part there is likely to be trouble between Jew and Gentile. There is no white. There are too many illustrative examples of this in the current history of Jewish practice, and we read with profit by many who are called upon to decide questions daily arising --- Johnson's Forms of English Poetry. Bk. 1. English by E. H. Frye. Professor of English Literature in Trinity College. Hartford. Clotn. 12 mo. 368 pages. English by A. H. H. Prieessor of English Literature. University Book Company, New York, Cincinnati and Chicago. Equally suitable for young people and for general readers, this volume contains the essential principles of the construction of English verse. It divides them into two parts, and by subject matter. The historical development, sketched and briefly illustrated by examples, but the true character of poetry as an art and as a social force, is always kept in evidence. The book will cultivate an appreciation and a love of poetic literature, and will arouse in the student a love of poetry. Knowles Building, Boys' Hall, Stone Hall, Girls' Hall, Model Home.

He was delighted that the Y. G. S. C. had made him a member. He says he inspected some of their creations and found them novel, artistic and right up-to-now. In fact nothing like them has ever been seen on land or sea. He hopes the time will allow them that he may have another heart talk with that flock of dolls. He said he had read in some comic paper, that the T. S. T. C.'s had performed some wonderful gastronomic feats of late, and some lady told him they are a well governed and virtuous set of youths. He says he is off to the Windy City from whence he came but will return—some day. Have you seen the new magazine, "THE VOICE OF THE NEGRO?" See notice elsewhere in this issue.
