STORY TELLING IN MEXICO When the Burglar Fled Victory for the Aggressor The Delusion of Ghosts Sometimes when I got to do errands at It wuz surely a ghost; an' I wisseld, becuz VOL. 21. NO. 19. STORY TELLER "The Mexicans are great story tellers," said an American mining engineer, who is now operating south of the border. "The percentage of illiteracy is very large, and stories told by word of mouth take the place of reading. "In every mining camp, every cattle camp, the fireside diversion when work stops is listening to folk-tales. The man who knows many of them and tells them well is sure to be popular. In fact, they have professional story tellers, half tramp, half troubadour, who wander from camp to camp amusing the peons for a few pennies. "After I get easy with the language I used to listen to these tales whenever I could. I found that about a third of the standard stories were Boccacoli translated into Aztec terms. There would be different incidents, different names, different localities, but there were the same plots. "I asked a priest, an authority on Mexican history, how Boccacoli ever got his start down there. He explained it in this way: "A great many of Boccacoli's tales are only the folk tales of the world, picked up by him from the common people and gathered by him into the The burglar, having used his skeleton keys successfully, slowly and carefully twisted his doorknob, listened intently and then tipped into the apartment. A thin ray of light from his dark lantern showed him a path through the mazes of furniture, but, as he moved forward, his foot struck sharply against a chair. Drawing his revolver he quickly determined on desperate measures, for a sound at the other end of the room indicated that the sleeping occupant was aroused. The intruder listened a moment, then crept silently on. "Well, Archibald," rasped a female voice. "I hear you creeping in. You can't see me, ye old reprobate! Ain't you ashamed of coming home at this hour of the night—3 a. m. ye old reprobate!" The burglar stood still, trembling in his tracks, even though only a woman opposed him. By far the most picturesque figure at the Five O'Clock club dinner one night recently was Congressman John Allen of Mississippi. When this delightful southern entered official life at Washington he came minus the characteristic title of "colonel" or "major." The fact that a southern soldier, filling the high office of congressman, did not lay claim to some military rank so amazed his colleagues that the newcomer was immediately dubbed "Private John Allen." United States senator Tom Carter of Montana in introducing R. Allen to the congressional related a secret exchange of "insults" that passed between "Private Allen" and Col. John R. Fellows, another intrepid soldier from Dixie land, at a banquet they attended some years ago. "When 'Private John Allen' arose to speak," said Senator Carter, "he launched A celebrated writer, says the Washington Post, mentions the duke of Cumberland and Marshal Soult as stout captains, but unfortunate, possessing the confidence of their superiors and subordinates, but generally losing the day when they commanded, Marshal Daun, so long opposed to Frederick the Great, was another unfortunate general who lost battles, but was ever a stubborn fighter and a trusted commander. Gen. Kouropatin belongs to the class of Soult and Cumberland. That he had an army with which to occupy Mukden stamps him in the thorough soldier, and that he hawed even a part of that army after the titanic battles of the day days shows that he is a commander of very considerable talents. He was reduced to the necessity of attempting a traditional Russian tactic, that had twice succeeded Decameron along with stories of his own. The French writers of fablèure before and after Boccaccio used many of the same stories. They are in the 'Roman de la Rose', and in half a dozen others. "The patres, in the early days of the Spanish occupation, brought over these French works, which were always popular in the monasteries. They weren't much on Boccaccio, for his interest, they quarried him with the church. But they all knew the fablèux. The priests and friars told these tales to their Indian acolytes, and they became incorporated with the national folklore. "There was one tale, not a pretty one, which I used to hear about the campires, and which I never could place in Boccaccio or any other writer whom I knew. Last year I visited Pompell—and there was that whole tale told in pictures on a wall. "I got some of my scholar's books to look it up. They found that partitioned the traces of it, in Greek, Latin and Sanskrit literature. It is as old a tale as we know; and here it is being told nightly as part of their own traditions by the Aztec story tellers of Mexico." "Can't talk, eh?" rasped the voice. "Too full of emotion, I guess, for I can smell the cloves on your breath away over here. It serves me right, anyhow for marrying just a tank, when I could have had many and many a decent—" Great drops of perspiration had gathered on the affricated burglar's brow, and throwing discretion to the winds, he fell over the furniture in a frantic effort to escape. "I'll scratch yer eyes out, ye brute!" went on the fierce falsetto voice. "Now ye just turn around and see if ye shu and locked the front door; understand? Hurry up, now, for I want a chance to tell you how much I despair since." When the burglar reached the door he shu it at his back and flew down the stairway in terror. He was a family man and appreciated the horrors of a curtain lecture. into a scathing denunciation of the military record of Col. Fellows. "This man Fellows," said Allen, "started from home with nothing but a Bible, an arithmetic and a halter. It was his purpose to teach school, become a preacher, or, failing in both, steal a horse and ride back home. He finally joined the army as an easy means of reaching home." Then Col. Fellows arose. "This man Allen," he thundered, "tells you that he figured in many engagements and was captured a number of times. I do not deny that he was captured, but the Yankees each time released him, realizing that it was necessary to fight him than to feed him." With this unique introduction "Private John Allen" arose, and for more than an hour delighted his hearers with reminiscent tales of a mithful character — Philadelphia Record. in Europe, too far from home. He employed against Oyama the plan of Peter the Great against Charles XII, and of Kutusoff against Napoleon. It was not new. Fabius had tried it against Hannibal, and the Partians lured Crassus to destruction by it. But the history of warfare disclosed the aggressor has the advantage—Alexander, Hannibal, Caesar and Napoleon all took the initiative. It was not Fabius, nor even Sciolpi, who beat Hannibal; it was Capua, where he ceased the aggressive and was buried in luxury and debauchery. Gustavus Adolphus invariably assailed his enemy. Let one read the brilliant campaign of Montrose in Scotland if he would realize the advantage of the "first lick." In our own country Stonewall Jackson and Gen. Forrest illustrated the superiority of aggressive tactics. **On of Ghosts** It wuz surely a ghost; an 'i' wizzel, beez When you wusel you scare 'em; an 'all Wuz a great big white cow; an 'it thes' walked away.

WORLD'S DIPLOMATIC CENTER WORLD'S DIPLOMATIC CENTER NORTH SEA CAND DUNES SEABAVILION FOR THE QUEEN SHEEN MUNGEN WORLD CAPITAL GARDEN CITY OLD CITY PALACE IN THE WOODS KEY TO BUILDINGS A. MONUMENTAL GROUP B. PEACE PALACE C. PEDAGOGY D. FINE ARTS E. ANTHROPOLOGY F. FOUNDER'S Mansion Minnesota: Historica Soie ty THE ST. PAUL AND MINN WORLD'S NORTH LOW WATER SCHWINGEN CANAL OLD CITY NEW HAGUE Dr. P. H. Elijman and Paul Horizin of Scheveningen, Holland, have come to this country to give a practical answer to the question asked by Mr. Andrew Carnegie in "The Gospel of Wealth," "What shall a rich man do with his money?" For years Dr. Elijman has been in communication with the Dutch government on the subject of founding, near the Hague, a sort of world's capital, which should stand for all time as the monument of the fraternalization of nations. The government was ready to listen if the funds could be found. Holland is obviously interested in welcoming all international movements to the capital. The more successes the monarch has achieved the less hope Germany has of absorbing her territory, whether under the guise of a "sollverein" or of a political alliance. When Mr. Carnegie gave $1,500,000 for a Temple of Peace at the Hague Dr. Elijman saw in the gift a possible cornerstone of his cherished plans. He had plans drawn by a distinguished Dutch architect, Mr. K. P. de Bazel, showing how an ideal international city could be built devoted to peace, humanity, truth, and the on the sand dunes of Wadden Sea, the old city of the Hague. The Temple of Peace's given a site on an eminence overbooking both the old and the new cities, with a sweeping view of the North sea. The world's capital is laid out hexagonally, with its main avenues meeting at a central square, which is to contain a monumental group symbolic of the brotherhood of nations. At three prominent points buildings are to be erected devoted to the fine arts, pedagogy and anthropology. The avenues connecting these buildings and the main thoroughfare, which, by the way, already has a name—the Paradere—are to be the widest and most beautiful highways ever designed. The Paradere ascends from the central monument to the Carnegie Temple of Peace, very much as the Champs Elsees in Paris leads from the obelisk in the Place de la Concorde to the Arc de Triomphe. This ideal city, which is to be the Mecca of all workers for the cause of humanity, is to be built and thoroughly equipped for the care promoted to promote a pamphlet especially for Mr. Carnegie's perusal, showing to the minutest detail how much dollar is to be spent. This $20,000,000 is not asked as a gift, but as a non-interest bearing loan. They estimate that most of the loan would be repaid to the treasury within twenty-five years by the sale of land for residences on the magnificent boulevards and connecting avenues of the world's capital. Much of the land upon which the proposed city would be built belongs to the municipality of The Hague or to the government. The government and the city have both assured Dr. Elkjman of their support should Mr. Carnegie give the necessary funds. Dr. A. Kuykun, Minister of the Interior and premier of Holland, indies the site chosen for the Temple of Peace and has expressed his approval of the whole plan for the new city, though he cannot officially answer Mr. Carnegie's donation for the Peace Temple by asking him for a a $20,000,000 loan. So interested has the government of Holland been in the plan, says Dr. Elkjman, that it has delayed the choice of a site for the Peace Temple until it could be seen whether the world's capital could become a reality. Dr. Elkjman wants to name the enterprise the "Carnegie Foundation of Internationalism." The international peace conference furnished the inspiration. "If the nations can meet to solve problems, they will not unite in the solution of other questions of humanity" he asks. It is proposed to establish international academies of pedagogy, hygiene and economy. The language of the world's capital is to be English. --- DR. P.H. ELIKMAN. though a department of the academy of pedagogy is to be devoted to the creation of a language. The department of hygiene is to include questions of sociology, as well as strictly scientific subjects. Under economy Dr. Elikman groups labor, militarism, life insurance, free trade and protection, trysts, alcoholism, paternal authority, marriage, feminism and other widely differing subjects. To the southeast of the new capital is planned a "garden city," with six hundred model dwellings for the workmen employed. The design of each model street is to be by a different architect, chosen in open competition. A great club house, to cost $240,000, is to be the workingmen's place of meeting and recreation. At the end of the avenue leading from the center of the city to the sea the promoters' propose to build a pavilion for the Queen of Holland as a recognition of her interest in internationalism. n't I made a success of my severe failures?

Every building in the model city will be surrounded by a good sized garden, but cafes, shops and restaurants are not to be excluded. The grounds would particularly suitable for world expositions. As to the government and the administration of this Carnegie dream city of the universe, the following plan is announced: Authority shall rest in a "council of curators." composed of honorary members. Ordinary members are to be appointed for life, partly by the founder. The limit of combined membership is twenty-two. The council is to appoint a general manager and a secretary. All legislative and executive authority rests in the general manager and the council. Another body, to consist of "delegated members," five named by each of the fifty-four principal nations, is to have certain rights and voting power not clearly defined.

Mosley, a famous Conferencete scout in the civil war, now an efficient special agent of the Department of Justice, said one day in Washington, apropos of success: "The other morning I met Blank, harrying along in his brisk, energetic way, the hopeful light still shining on his face and his confidence still playing about his firm mouth.

Ray of a Rose Grower "A god rose grower—that is, one who can show good results," says a well known florist, "receives as much pay as a college professor. As a rule, his knowledge has cost him about as much. "By a rose grower I mean a specialist who can produce heavy headed beauties with strong, yard long stems. Growing roses in pots or in the open is another matter. It requires skill to grow them well, but it requires something more to show cut flowers of the quality that has come to be considered the first grade. That is a business by itself. Good rose growers get from 2,000 to $5,000 a year, and some of them receive much more, notably a few who cater to the New York market." An Admirable Liar. "I admire a liar," said Morgan Robertson, the writer of sea stories, "even when his prevarications strain my credibility. A friend of mine who objects to efforts to pry into his personal affairs, recently limped into my workshop. "What's the matter with your foot?" I asked, more to be polite because I cared what was the trouble. "Then he gained my everlasting admiration by a display of nerve and mendacity I never saw equaled.

The plague situation in India is becoming worse year by year; an English journal calls it one of the great catastrophes of modern times.

NO JOY IN FORGETFULNESS Much Learned Through War Benefit in Short "Naps" The Chosen Ones When Silence Is Golden There was once a poor woman whose life had been such a bitter one that she wanted her memory taken away. He to whom she had given the love of her young heart had not fulfilled the promises of his youth; his weaknesses had developed into crimes, so that he was compelled to flee for his life; and the sons and daughters she had borne and brought up had repaid her care and kindness with neglect and abuse, and at last, one by one, had wandered far from her fireside. So the heart of the poor woman was broken, and she passed, a sad and desolate soul, down the river of death. She came at last to the dim river, and asked the boatman to take her over. "This is the river of forgetfulness," said the boatman. "You will stop and drink before you cross." The woman's face brightened and her voice was full of eager longing. "Yes," she said, "I will drink; I will forget then that my hopes have failed." "You will forget that you ever hoped," replied the boatman. The woman drew back; then she bent forward once more. "I will forget that I came to hate him so," she said. War is aborrent use, but it has at least one innocent use, says the Philadelphia Public Ledger. It is an efficient educator in geography. War teaches this branch of education with more interest and thoroughness than the most accomplished professor in his classroom and, on the other hand, it is urged by many eminent military men that an accurate knowledge of geography is necessary for successful warfare. The art of war and geography are in intimate association. The latter is called "the handmaid of tactics and strategy." So important is the relation of geographical education to war that the London Times has opened its columns to the discussion of the subject. One of its correspondents, in true British fashion, says that "to think imperially with any profit we must think geographically." The technical importance of geographical knowledge in war and the importance of "thinking imperially" in American readers but there can be no question as to the educational value of the dispatches and accompanying explanations chronicling the movements of The majority of people take a meal of some kind between the hours of 12 and 2 daily, says the London Chronicle. With a number of persons this meal assumes the form of a substantial dinner, while with others it amounts to nothing more than a light luncheon. In either case, however, the request requires to be digested, and this necessitates some modification of the activities of the brain, since neither that organ nor those concerned in the processes of digestion are capable of good work when an attempt is made to put forth their energies simultaneously. A tendency to drowsiness, confusion of thought and inability to make any great mental effort are among the results of a diminished cerebral relation. This is because, therefore, theenced by most persons after a meal, and they are the more pronounced in proportion to the greater amount of digestive energy expended.

Many a one is spoiled through rushing prematurely and volubly into speech. It is safe to be silent when your words would wound. "Faithful are the wounds of a friend," says the old proverb, but one wants to be mighty sure one's friend needs the wounding and that we are qualified to administer it. Keep still when your words will discourage. It is infinitely better to be dumb forever than to make one fel- "You will forget that you ever loved him," came the response. The words seemed to stir a faraway memory. There was a long pause. Then the woman leaned forward to drink. "I will forget that my little ones left my arms. I will forget how I wept for them in the darkness when they did not return at night. I will forget that they lost the right path and wandered away, never to return to me." "Yes," said the boatman, "you will forget that you ever pressed them to your bosom, forget that you ever felt the tiny fingers wandering caressingly over your face. You will forget the visions you saw, the fond hopes you cherished as you used to rock them to sleep at night." The woman was not stooping by the river now; she had raised herself and was walking toward the boat. "You may row me across," she said, "I shall not drink of the waters of forgetfulness."

Curtis. armies on the war scene and describing more or less minutely regions and peoples of which the reader has had very limited and imperfect knowledge. Recalling conflicts within easy collection, the South African and the Spanish-American wars were great educators. No one who followed these wars closely, as gazetted by the newspapers, could have failed to learn much respecting Africa, Spain, Cuba, the Philippines and Porto Rico of which he was previously ignored. The pending titanic struggle in Asia has produced a deluge of valuable information, geographical, political, social, respecting Russia, Japan and Manchuria, quite apart from the intensely dramatic features of the war. The school books are always years behind that universal school master, the live newspaper. The mass of information and permanently useful intelligence presented in the voluminous war correspondence is one of the most important of the development of the newspaper's function as a popular educator. The daily newspaper, faithful to its trust, is the world's best text-book in many lines. Since brain work of good quality cannot be produced while the processes of digestion are in active operation, it is wise not to attempt it. It is never prudent to thwart the beneficent intentions of nature. Many persons struggle against the mental and physical lethargy because of the digestive act, apparently under the delusion that all time given to the important business of building up and repairing by their tissues is time wasted. So far from this being the case a well spent postprandial interval tends to the preservation and prolongation of life. If a tendency to drowsiness is felt sleep should be allowed to prevail, for the proverbial "forty winks" is justified of science.

"THE COLOR LINE." "The Color Line" is the title of a new book on the race issue in the South. Its author is Dr. William Benjamin Smith of Tulane University, New Orleans. We have not had the pleasure of perusing the work and learning about it, as it is derived from a communication in the St Louis Globe-Democrat, signed "Robert A. Holland, S. T. D." Mr. Holland, S. T. D. states the motif of this new work as follows: "The strange fancy of a certain breed of white women for the little misskinned, flat-nosed Malays, who spared soldier clothes at the World's Peace accentuates the race problem in Now, this Malay-minded type of white woman is not confined to St. Louis. There is nothing special in our topography to make her local. States are not the only places in other cities only show the opportunities latent in regions that permit less liberty. Imagine a perpetual World's Fair, with an army of Philippine scouts in an equal population of Malay-minded white women, and you would be the Southern hatred, insecure, invadee, deadly, against all social intercourse that might lead to morphealization. Of course, the morphealization, if it were, would graign the woman and begin with the negroid woman, or rather, with women of negroid tastes and conditions, and work its way up as individual mutalo excellence commended itself to exceptional recognition, until the breach ran through class above class, and let at last the flood of pampanga and the mumiaxia begin. And the mumiaxia would not raise the negroid type, its organic bounds being fixed too firmly for any kind of culture to remove them; it would only degrade and pollute and at last destroy the Caucasian strain. If it were not utterly African it would utterly Africanize the blood that makes an American civilization." Then S. T. D. next proceed to show that we must accept the work as content from the material of the book. He is a professor of mathematics known throughout the world for his metamegetic work, a philologist of world-wide renown, a biologist, an anthropologist, a psychologist, sociologist and historian. "The argument of the author I can give only in the briefest outline. He first states the issue and the Southern position with its lines of defense. Its justification with justification is denial of equality to the Negro, no matter what his virtues or abilities or accee rvements? * * * * If we disregard the color line in all other relations, we are possible to maintain it in the material of the book. In the prose of our species? * * * No! As a race the Southern Caucasian would be irreversibly doomed." He finally asks what is to become of the black men, and calls on the growth rate, the birth rate, the death rate, the crime rate, and the anthropometry of the black man to answer. The answer is doom; and that doom the South must not prevent, but rather escape from, mongrelization." This book is the very first from a Southern author that we have ever seen or heard of, by which the remotest implication, admits that there is a tendency upon the part of Southern Americans. The "Malay-minded white woman" and her sister of "negliguous tastes and conditions" are the latest additions to the varieties of the human race. Their existence has herefore been sturdy denied, while the idiosyncrasies of the white Southern male, in the same direction have been present. Dr. Smith and Dr. Ingalls of Kansas asserted that, in cases of missegenation, the white participant was invariably a male, but Dr. Smith and Dr. Holland scout this idea as utterly preposterous and construct an elaborate argument to sustain their contention. It is a most metaphysical book, a metatheoretic professor of mathematics and a Sacrae Theologie Doctor. In our opinion the professor would have disposed of the time he spent in composing "The Color Line" much more wisely in studying "The Functions of a Complex Variable." Mathmatics deals conclusively with Simon's line bids defiance to Determinants and Hyper-elliptic Functions. ANOTHER GOOD FIELD HAND SPOILED. Vard and Jeff and Till and the rest of the old moss-backs will be dismaged at learning that another "good field band" has been totally spoiled; which in view of the amenable scarcity of the moss, Jim-Crowdom, is a veritable calamity. We allude to the case of Miss Hazelda Harrison of La Porte, Ind., who has achieved such success as a planter, who has excelled the greatest praise from the Deutscher Reichsanzeiger, Morgan Post and Tageblatt, the leading daily papers of the Fatherland. The first named paper says: "She played Chopin's E minor and Griegs A minor, and increased great talent and excellent technic." Miss Harrison in her earlier days attracted the attention of Victor Heinze, the eminent Chicago pianist, who, in utter disregard of the evils of "social equality, gave her the necrosis of a manic mutatio," as one of the German papers calls her, is exploiting herself, at the Schl-Academia, with the Philharmonic Orchestra, and with Herr August Scharer as her conductor. It will readily be seen that this circumstance will inspire other "little multicolored inspirations and many little old moss-backs with digest. So note it be. AN ABOMINATION UNTO GOD. During the recent session of the Washington Presbytery when the question of kicking out the Afro-American brother was under consideration, Rev. P. B. Ramsdell advocated the overture as "looking to the best interests of the colored people. I want the people to rise up and do something." It is a remarkable fact that when a poor Jim Crowist proposes to engineer through some scheme for the more effectual degradation of the Afro-American, he always professes to be a Christian. Such sanctimonious, hypocritical vilian has been repeated until it has become positively nauseating. It reminds of "the abomination of desolation standing in the holy place." We can only say with Dr. Grimke, the priestess who in speaking eloquently and with intense earnestness against the abomination, said: "I sometimes wonder how God can sit still and see such things going on in the Presbyterian church: it must be an abomination unto God. It must be an abomination to God, it is hard to conceive of anything that is, --- The Reform League of Baltimore, at a recent meeting adopted a report denouncing the Gorman Jim Crow Amendment in scathing terms. The Maryland amendment is of interest because it denounced the use of several of the other Southern states, whose effect is to vest the control of the Southern states in the hands of a set of the most unscrupulous scoundrels on the face of the earth. The amendment established fact that the Democratic primaries and Democratic conventions are denounced by such cantankerous Democrats as Bryan and Tillman as being run by the trusts. The exposures of the methods of the St. Louis convention which nominated Davis and Davis are quantum suffice. --- The Washington Times says of the Japanese: "And now they are driving out of territory near their homes a foe of a superior race, superior equipment, superior numbers." But there is not the least evidence to show that the Russians were superior in any way. If the Russians have not shown themselves to be inferior to the Japs in almost every respect, it is hard to imagine what things do prove. The Japs have the better officers, better soldiers, better ships, better guns and better discipline. The Times must mean that the Russian is a better, or superior racer, rather than a superior race. The Board of Missions of the M. E. church south has made an appropriation of $250,000 for foreign missions. This should have been added to the $175,000 appropriated for the same amount could be used for the conversion of the white heathen in the Southern states. Tuesday, May 9, marked the one hundredth anniversary of Schiller's death. All over the civilized world men paid loving tribute to the immortal genius of the great German poet, to his love of liberty, to his hatred of caste and cant. The Richmond Dispatch says that Booker Washington is not a colored man, but a "white man with Negro blood." The strike has been a severe blow to the Afro-Americans of Chicago in many ways and the end is not yet. Mr. Reid says: "This Political History that comes from having seen many of the events from the inside as they occurred, and from the entire range of the subjects and from access to much unpublished information from the entire range of the subjects and from governor Brough, in the records of the state office held during a critical part of the period, and in constant personal contact with the governor. In the records of the Again: "As time goes on fuller justice is being served to the members by which a free people enlarged the bounds of freedom, to communities and Anglo-Saxon masons for the correction of wrongs and the better development of Anglo-Saxon masons among public educators. Chase and Seward, Stanton and Welles, first among legislators and cabinet ministers, and among public educators, superior of them all, and certainly the most capable politician of the time. Abra In Chapter I, the author says: "If there is something illegal in slavery, it is abolished by the men who formed the Constitution: who, recognizing that such an institution was inconsistent with Christian civilization, opposed slavery for the civilization for which the colonies had contended, and which constitute the basis of our Republic, we must grant her a name so repulsive to free-perpetrators that we must conclude that the public sentiment of that day. There was no state of mind, and feeling that it was injurious to society was in no sense dependent upon sectional lines, its ultimate extinction would be impossible, and the emancipation was to be the rule. This came early north of Maryland, and it is not unreasonable to suppose that the emancipation of the African slave trade, emancipation would have followed in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky and "Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its sinfulness or from economic reasons, those who with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because he opposed the influence it became as impatient as list or influence became as political of political forces; while that having a source parted the institution of third party. The Society of Friends led all other denominations in the employment of the priesthood. The Lord Lloyd Benjamin, Benjamin Lundy or Chas, of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, outspoken utterances in the P-veshterian, Baptist and Methodist churches at an important in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee." CIVIL WAR TIMES Because of these things the author's work was not published with profit; by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has hitherto unwritten, is brought forth for Mr. McKee. The descriptive art of the author never lags from the opening to the closing pages, and this book of extraordinary happenings. The Commune of 1871 was the culmination of French weakness and imbecility—that is, the weakness of the French, rested upon those in authority, and which followed swiftly upon the heels of the army. The army, in turn, suffered armies under that order of military strategists Von Moltke In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolutions of the Revolution were again followed by the wars and elsewhere throughout the country. The author then follows up with a description of the battle between the contending factions which finally burst forth in all the horrors of the Commune. Marselles, Toolhouse and Narbon were soon to be converted into veritable battlefields, which for the French struggle which for madness and unchecked violence finds few counterparts in the human family. Many new events have taken place which have hitherto been obscure to the student but are brought forward by the author, in his essay on the achievement of no inconsiderable merit. --- ANTISEMITISM Antisemitism. by Bernard Lazare, Translated from the French. vp. Pp. 135. International Library Publishing Co. Recent events in Russia have given the author a most painful translation from the French, and its pages must have been written many times. The author has the most painful interest to the Jewish question. The author is himself a Hebrew, and subject to all the odum he has read, but this circumstance does not seem to have biased his judgment in the forming of his own views with great candor, and the blame is distributed with fairness. The fault is found in his world, but the Israelite himself is charged with having brought much of the trouble to his people by manifest shortness. The treatment given the subject is hisisual interrelations between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps he has resulted in a greater mixture of learn how much of proselyting has been carried on reciprocally between the He-terans has resulted a greater mixture of race than Jews would, perhaps, willingly add to the mixture. In distinctions whether these be founded upon language, shape of the face, or opinion, the opinion prevails that races are distinct from part and inferiority on the other part there is likely to be trouble between Jew and Gentile. There are too many illustrative examples of this in the current history to be read with profit by many who are called here to decide questions daily arising here.

All Chicago records for speedy di- vorce trials were shattered Saturday when -two cases were heard at the same time by one judge. Following this lightening mode of severing mari- tal bonds, and in the same courtroom, two judges heard separate cases at the same time from the same bench. It was country judges who thus taught Chicago the possibilities of rapidity, in divorce trials. Judge Charles A. Bishop of Sycamore was the jurist who heard the two cases at once, afterward being joined by Judge Arthur H. Frost of Rockford, and the two simultaneonsly heard testimony in separate suits. Ld caeamaiae, There were several shooting affairs Sunday which did not result in the serious wounding of any person, but showed that the rough element in the ranks of the teamsters was seeking for opportunities to injure the Afro- American non-union men. At the barn of the Employers’ Teaming asso- ciation, at Eighteenth and Dearborn Streets, Albert Wells, an_Afro-Ameri- can driver, was shot in the left wrist by a white man recognized as @ union picket, ‘Two non-union Afro-American team: ssters of the Employers’ Teaming Com: pany were painfully hurt and escaped more serious injury only by the inter- ference of the police in a riot today in the alley north of the Olympic thea- ter. ‘The injured -men were Wade Crowder, who was ett about the head fand face, and John Pitkins, struck on the head by a stone.” Leon Mandel, a Jew, member of the firm of Mandel Brothers, said Mon- day: We do not want the Negro non- unionist. It was a mistake to import them. ‘They breed jealousies and dis- turbanees which lead to shigging, vio lence and rioting. © Sheriff Barrett and County Commis- sioner Oxear De. Priest, who is an Rfro-American, had a lively tit In the office of the sheriff, when De Priest appeared and urged Barrett to appoint Several Afro-Americans as deputies. Barrett emphatically refused, declar- ing that the presence of Afro-Ameri- cans as deputies would only. incite riot. This angered De Priest and hot words passed between the two county officials. Since the swearing in of spectal deputies began two days ago several ‘Afro-Americans have appeared at the office of the sheriff, asking that they be appointed. They had letters of introduction from De Priest in some instances. ‘They were refused by Chief Deputy Peters, who gave them celliawee einer, than by" incerence why he could not appoint them. rt The riot press have attempted t make ont that the strike is a race war This is absolutely false. ‘There are AMro-American members in nearly al of the labor unions, including the gar ment makers’ and the teamsters’ un jons.
