The City in the Sea
The City in the Sea
Lo. death has reared himself a throne
In a strange city lying alone
Where the ruins and the bad and the worst and the best
Have care and rest
Their shrines and palaces and towers
(Time-caten towers that tremble not)
Around the city, where winds surround
Around, by lifting winds forgot,
Resignedly the sky
The melancholy waters lie
No rays from the holy heaven come down
On the ground, to town to town;
But light from out the lurid sea
Streams up the turrets silently,
Poisonous water and free;
Up domes, up spires, up kingly halls,
Up fanes, up babylon-like walls,
Poisonous water and stone flowers.
Of sculptured ivy and stone flowers.
Wheeshed weathered friezes intertwine
The viol, the violet, and the vine.
Resignedly beneath the sky
The melancholy waters lie
The ruins and shadows there
That all seems to be gone.
Disease and the Microbe
Disease and the Microbe
I am tempted to ask the reader merely to believe, because I say so, that the destruction of disease gorms is possible.
Of course I don't mean to assert that we are yet in possession of knowledge sufficient for our purpose, even supposing that mankind had set itself on the extermination of disease microbes. C. W. Saleby, M. D. in Harper's Weekly. For absolute success we must know much more than we do. In the case of malaria our knowledge is practically perfect. We know the life history of the microbe from the cradle to the grave, so to speak, and therefore we can exterminate it whenever the public of the planet gives the word. On the other hand, we have not yet discovered the microbes of many diseases, such as measles and whooping cough and mumps, and even a "cold in the head. But these are mere matters that we can easily visualize that microbes go through millions of generations when other creatures go through one. At the end of twenty-four hours a microbe may have grandchildren with "great-great" added on. Therefore they can vary very
Turnverein in War Time
The first Turner societies in the United States were founded in Philadelphia and Cincinnati in 1841, and shortly after, the New York Turner Verein had its start in Hoboken. Two years later ten societies were flourishing and these were formed into a National Turner union, says Outing.
The revolutionary spirit which blazed fiercely in Germany in 1848 was rushed for the time and many patriots of superior education and intelligence fed to this country as an asylum. They were strangers in a strange land, unable to communicate with the people of their country, which was tainted to intercourse with their countrymen. They had been Turners at home, using this organization as a nursery of patriotism, in which high ideals of political, social and religious progress were cherished, together with the training of the body for the hirdships of the field and camp.
This ideal of classic times, wisely reincarnated in modern Germany to serve a nation's needs, was trans-
Odd Things About Money
Business men throughout Canada are disturbed at the preponderance of American coins in trade circles. Ways and means are being sought to exclude American silver coins as far as possible from business channels. The Canadian Bankers' association has proposed to the Canadian government that it reimburse the banks for the charges of shipping American silver back to the United States, the banks at the same time to take an equivalent amount of Canadian silver. There has been no disposition to refuse American bills, for the balance of trade is heavily in favor of the United States and the bills are accepted at par by the banks for shipment to correspondents throughout the United States. Chinese mints are literally "coinaging money" in a scheme recently hit upon by which copper coins are minted at comparatively small cost and make changeable at the rate of ninety for a Mexican dollar. At Hangchan 20,000,000 of these copper coins

"Sir Alfred Harmsworth, the English publisher, lunched one day at Monte Carlo on Russian dishes at the famous Citroës. He had come from Marseilles in a new ninety-hour power automobile, and Ciro was now explaining to him his Russian dishes, a novelty that Monte Carlo had welcomed heartily.
"Sir Alfred helped himself to a Russian dish that looked like black velvet. "This is good," he said, "but have you any kvass?
Kvass? He feeded, yes, said Ciro.
"I have some kvass, then," said Sir Alfred. "Some kvass, with plenty of Caucasus cabbage in it."

quickly. And we know that certain conditions may cause innocent microbes so to vary, after a few thousands of generations (taking next to no time), that they become harmful. All this question must be investigated on even a wider scale than at present; so that we may be able to kill all the microbes that are even potentially dangerous, or else modify them so that they are dangerous only to certain organisms, or deserve to. An instance of this is already furnished in a sense, by the plague. The microbe of *cals disease*—the bacillus pestis—discovered ten years ago by the great Japanese bacteriologist* *Nixataso*, is mainly conveyed from place to place by rats, which die even more readily than man of this terrible disease. Therefore man has declared war on the unfortunate rat his co-victim.
As disease gradually diminishes upon the earth with the disappearance of whole cause, certain great changes will occur in human life. Its growth will be greatly increased—certainly by several decades—for microbes shorten the life of every one of us, even when we die of so-called "old age."
planted to the United States by the fortunes of war. The Turner societies aroused some antagonism, based on the specious claim that they were an attempt to create a state within a state and to keep the Germans apart from the life around them. This contention was magnificently shattered a little more than a decade after the first Turners were organized in this country. When the civil war began, these German citizens of the United States volunteered in such numbers that in New York a Turner regiment was enlisted and sent to the front under Col. Max Webber. The Ninth Ohio was another regiment of Turners from Cincinnati, and in Philadelphia and St. Louis Turners filled the ranks of the regiment which did not have the distinctive name. Gen. Seigel commanded several thousand Turners in his forces and was their idol, for he had been a leader of the Turnerbund in his own land and was one of the fighting revolutionary commanders who led his army into Switzerland and there disbanded it after the cause was lost.
are being made every month and shipped to Shanghai. The coins are officially known as the 10-cash coins, corresponding to our American 1-cent pieces. One hundred of these coins weight slightly over twenty-four ounces and a pound and a half copper costs only 10 to 20 cents. No great amount of power is needed to convert the copper into coin and plenty of money can be had at from $4 to $8 gold a month. According to Chinese会计, the pound and a half of copper in money is worth about $1.12 Mexican, or 50 cents in gold. While issued at the mints for 90 cents to one Mexican dollar, so great is the demand for these copper coins among the Chinese that they pass current among the people for from 95 to 97 cents. A new mint with an output of 2,000,000 of these coins a day will start up in Hangzhou this month. The new coins are gold and silver, circulation, but will have to be reckoned with when a new monetary system is made for the Chinese empire.

INVESTIGATION OF THE LODGEPOLE PINE PLANNED BY BUREAU OF FORESTRY
MERCHANTABLE LODGEPOLE FOREST—WYOMING.
The lodgepole pine, which is known in the Sierras of California as tama-rake pine, and in Colorado and Montana is sometimes called white pine, jack pine, phryon, and scrub pine, bears the common name of "hodgepole" from the fact that the Indians used its long slender trunks as supports for their wiwakens or lodges. Its geographical range is along the Rocky mountains from Alaska to New Mexico and westward to the Pacific coast. In the United States it is found in merchantable quantity and dimensions on the spurs and eastern slopes of the Rocky mountains throughout southern Montana, Wyoming and Colorado, in the Bitter Root mountains of Idaho, the Ullinn root of Utah and in the Big Horn mountains of Wyoming. The Bureau of Forestry is studying the species throughout this range of its best commercial distribution. Lodgepole pine grows at all altitudes from 3,000 to 10,500 feet above sea level. In the Galatinic mountains of Montana and in the mountainous country south and east of Yellowstone Park it reaches its largest size at elevations between 4,500 and 8,000 feet. In Colorado, however,
A GARDEN
EVERY
EVERY PLANT AND FLOWER HAS A STORY TO TELL
The new thought in planting gardens is to make them representative of some special phase of plant life. At Georgian Court, Lakewood, N. J., Mr. George Gould has a formal Italian garden wherein intermingled clipped evergreens and statuary; by the side of Biltmore House Mr. George Vanderbilt has a garden of wallflowers showing only such blossoms and fruits as grow best when trained over the surrounding high wall; Mrs. O. H. P. Belmont enjoys a garden exclusively of such wild flowers as are suffering from overpicking.
The possessor of a garden of romantic plants is, however, still to be found. Yet such a garden would bring together a large number of plants and gay flowers throughout the blooming season.
Before planting a garden of romantic plants it would first be necessary to recall the history which have from time immemorial been associated with time immemorial with superstitions. Dream plants, plants renowned as love charms, those associated with witches and others related to be the companions of fairies might be used in groups in the four corners of a garden of romance.
Of plants conspicuous in dream love there is the mystic clover, which pertends happiness in marriage and great prosperity. On the Continent the lover having found a four leaf clover puts it under his pillow at night, hoping to then dream of his lady love.

towards the southern limit of its range, the conditions which are necessary to its best growth are found between 9,000 and 10,500 feet elevation.
Lodgepole pine is valuable, for one reason, because it grows on high mountain slopes, and also on old "burrs," where other trees find difficulty in obtaining a foothold. It needs a moist, well-drained condition, but thrives best where it is considerable moisture. Its roots accommodate themselves to the shallow soil common in the localities where it grows. At a very early age this tree produces cones in large quantities, and after it is ten years old the seed are generally fertile. The cones sometimes open and distribute the seeds as soon as they are ripe, though more commonly they remain on the tree for years with their seed carefully preserved beneath the scales. In many cases squirrels off the closed branches of the tree and ground. If a fire occurs before the seeds are eaten, it will cause the cones to open and set them free. As a rule, however, the cones of many seasons remain on the trees until a fire comes along, and by heating them, liberates
GEN OF DREAMS AND
PLANT AND FLOWER HAS A STORY
In a cultivated garden the plant is useful for the border, where it remains natty and crisp looking until the coming of frost.
The violet, if preferred, can be used in the dream corner as a border plant, although, owing to its habit of spreading, it is somewhat difficult to keep it within prescribed limits. Dreaming of it was held by the ancients to signify successful advance in life. It was, moreover, one loved flower of life that makes it should find a place in every romantic season, as they are deemed specially lovely for dreaming of during their season of bloom. Dandelions should not be allowed to lift their heads in the dream corner of a garden. To dream of them denotes misfortune. In fact, yellow flowers of every sort should be kept strictly away from this corner, as the color in dream love is created with including jealousy to them. Neither white flowers predated in such a corner, since dreaming of them means death. Yarrow, or milfoil, may be planted here, as by plucking it dreams of the living are induced. The laurel and lilies should also find place here in abundance. Pink and red roses, to the greatest luck attaches in dreams, may be used unstintingly to enliven the garden. A white rose bush, however, should be grown over early in the season, as a sign of dire misfortune.
the seeds, when a dense growth of seedlings follow.
By far the greater part of the merchantable lodgepole area is within existing or proposed federal forest reserves, where the lumbering regulations which the government put into effect some time ago will protect and benefit the forests.
Other objects of the Bureau of Forestry this week are to ascertain the rates of growth of the tree, and how it may be increased; to better existing lumbering regulations; to devise a system of fire protection, and to extend the commercial uses of the wood. A controlling consideration is the need of maintaining the forests on all the mountains they now cover, and of causing them to spread more widely, if possible, since the most important function they can perform is to safeguard the water sheds they include. This study will enable the bureau to carry out effective the work of a proper management laterally intrusted to it by Congress. The results of the study should also prove of large value to railroad and private owners who hold a great many old sections of land through the lodgepole pine region.
TO OMENS
TO TELL
To dream of it when withered indi-
cates failure in love.
The box, which happily has returned to fashion's favor for bordering paths, may well be used in a romantic garden; since it means long life, while arguing well for love affairs.
No distinct line need be drawn between the dream plants of a romantic garden and those which fill the love charm corner, many being associated with both ideas.
The thistle, while one of the most lucky of dream omens, has also been used by rustic maidens for testing the affection of possible lovers. Cutting the points from three or four downheads, the maiden assigns to each a name. Then on the morrow the one which has put forth a sprout is beled to bear the name of him she will marry.
In this love charm part of the garden the pansy may claim place as the border plant. A Kisilumer's might Dream, told Puck to put over the pet of Titania a maid, when on awakening she might fall in love with the first object she copied. The *Crocus* is also among the early spring flowers reputed to inspire love.
An acre could readily be planted as a garden of romance, so abundantly has legendary lore been transmitted by flowers. Indeed, such a one wherein each plant tells its own story, might prove to many refreshing in this day, when most gardens have a tone of tense reality—New York Herald.

The City Sleeps
The City Sleeps
The trees and dreams, and dreams are sweet.
How dark and still the street!
At peace, the citizens all silent lie;
ease, the rest is quiet.
The breath is calm, no hurried feet go by,
Night falls and rest is sweet.
The stifle and struggle of the garish day,
The turmoil and the fighting—all is past,
Nor loves nor hates outlast
The wonton shadow of the truce that's
When night puts all away—
As if the citizen were only boys
Grown tired of tasks and toys,
And seeking mother's knee, that
With bedtime kiss and prayer
They might forget the daylight's little
And surfacing of joys.
O peaceful stars, compassioning, watchful
Eyes.
Make low the hillsides
Let them wake up the unison planets sing;
Let them wake up, nor bring
Descent Into Pelee Crater
"My companion, much more intrepid than I stepped on the edge of the crater, examining the ground and said with admirable assurance, 'Here is where we must go down.' Without giving me time to offer the least objection he put the knotted end of the rope into the hands of Latour and myself, threw the rest of the rope into the crater and began to descend." Thus writes the Abbe J. Yvon of Martinique describing a descent he and his team made to the crater of Mount Fuji, 24 of last year. Their feat was the first of the kind since the great eruption of May, 1902. The abbe tells of the fear that seized him when his companion slid over the edge, and how, leaving their one attendant, Latour, to hold the rope, he himself made the dangerous trip into the volcano's mouth. This first descent, however, was only a matter of thirty or forty feet, but after it there remained a quarter of an hour's hard scrambling over sharp rocks before the crater's floor, far below, was renched. "Thus we arrived," he says, "at the bottom of the valley at the base of the dome which fills completely the avenue of communication with the interior of the earth. It is an error to suppose that there is a great hole from which lava and gasses have come out,
Blaine Knew the Family
Blaine Knew the Family
A gentleman prominent in Cambridge, Mass., told this anecdote of the late Hon. James G. Blaine one night, not long after witnessing the incident:
Mr. Blaine, said he, had a peculiar gift for remembering names and faces, but this was the most amusing exhibition of his gift that I had ever witnessed. It was at a large reception in Washington. A gentleman of rather countrified appearance was introduced to Mr. Blaine as Mr. Mason.
"What!" exclaimed Blaine, "Mr. Mason, please, VV." "Yes," replied Mr. Mason, delighted at being definitely placed geographically.
"The son of Stephen Mason?"
"Yes," delighted again to be genetically placed.
"Ah, yes," said Mr. Blaine, "and he Jied in, let me see, in 1868, did he not? I remember—and he was buried in the little yard by the church. And his father was John Mason, who fought in the Revolution, all so sympathetic and so historically correct, and the man's pleasure over having a distinct place in the
The Knowledge Was Mutual
The desire of some of the illiterate to claim acquaintancehips with noted men is illustrated by an amusing story told of James Whitcomb Riley. Accompanied by Bill Nye, he was traveling through the town where he was born, and while he was seated in the train he was pointed out by group of the villagers a standing on the railroad station. An old farmer who overheard the name of the well known author stepped up to the group and, pointing to the car window with his finger, inquired, "Is that there Mr. Riley?" and added, "Wall, I knew that feller's grandfather, and I'm goin' in to have a talk with him." As the train was to be delayed for some minutes at the station, the farmer boldly entered the car and, stand behind Mr. Riley, he drawled, "Say, don't you James Whitcomb Riley?"
Riley?" Riley? "Yes," replied Mr. Riley, slightly surprised that he was to come in and throw his brows raised, he frisked to an interview with one added, slowly "So did I."

Down in a remote section of a southwestern state is a little town which no railroad approaches nearer than thirty-two miles. The news of the world is worn out and probably denied by the time it reaches there, and the little town must maintain itself itself been, however, at least one event in the annals of the state. That was when a new bank was started. It was only a branch bank, but that did not dim its luster or novelty in the eyes of the citizens. The first depositor was "Si" Fox. Si was a man of means, but had trusted for the safety of his money to his yarn sock and his gun. Now he felt that as the leading citizen of the town he ought to encourage the new enterprise. He put in a thousand dollars as soon as he heard the news, he later he came, back and

And, black rivers, rolling to the sea,

Peelee Crater
At present there is a tremendous cork of
andesite (an eruptive rock) which is called the dome, and which must have a diameter of 800 meters (2,600 feet) and a height of 400 meters (1,300 feet). On all sides of the dome there are funneles (smoke hood), some of which throw on a reddish smoke, of which are whitish vapors and still others are surrounded with a carpet of sulphur. It is extremely dangerous to remain there on account of the avalanches, which are now very frequent. Probably not two minutes pass without one's occurring.
"We were just quitting the vicinity of the fumarole when a rather thick cloud invaded the crater and prevented our seeing. We could no longer perceive the courses of the avalanches. It was very disquieting, for each moment we thought that they were coming upon us. It was very necessary to leave the spot where we were. The immense blocks which descended from the summit sometimes struck and broke off other blocks. There were on all sides discharges of stones like the explosions of chalks companyed with sulphides clouds of borax." A perilous climb from the crater and then a dizzy crawl along a narrow lip of rock between the crater on one side and the abyss of Procheure on the other led the explorers back to safety.
stateman's mind, was so evident that we coveted the ready memory and tact of the busy statesman who could so definitely place everyone.
Yet this seemed exceptional, so after the man had passed on we said to the senator, "How do you remember all that? Did you ever know his father?" He laughed and said, "No, I never immediatly had told old man who lived in courtyard, Vt., and several summers ago I spent a Sunday with her and I went to church with her. The day was warm and I had difficulty in keeping awake. The window was open to the little graveyard, and every time I nodded I opened my eyes to see on a big stone whose reflected whiteness made me blink: "Stephen Mason, dated April 26, 1868," and beside it was another with, "John Mason, born 17—, died 18—."
"It never would have done to fall asleep; my aunt would never have forgiven me, so I must remember that, and my name Mason that I don't see that big white stone and those big letters spelling out 'Stephen Mason.' No, I never saw the man or heard of him before."
the townspeople, and, nudging Mr. Nye, he looked up with a most vacant expression, and, thrusting his head to one side, as the deaf sometimes do, he said, almost in a whisper: "Ha? Again came the query, in a louder one: 'I say! isn't your name Mr. Riley. Mr. Riley now put his hand up behind his ear, the better to catch the sound, and with a still more stupid expression on his face he asked painfully, 'Hey?'
Once more the question was repeated by the old farmer, who was fast losing his temper. This time Mr. Riley seemed to hear, and slowly nodding his head up and down, he assented, "Mm!" Exclaimed the farmer, in a tone of great importance, and loud enough to be heard all through the car, 'I knew yer grandfather!' "Yes? replied Mr. Riley, slightly concerned, and, with eyebrows raised, added slowly, "So did I."
asked how money was taken out. The method of making out a check was explained, and SI made out one for $1,000. The cashier was surprised at the sudden withdrawal, but paid it without remark. Si took his money and walked down to a group of men and displayed It. The group entered into a warm and low-voiced discussion into a warm and low-voiced discussion into the bank again, and told the cashier that he wanted to deposit a thousand dollars.
"Why, sir, what is the matter with you?" asked the clerk. "You deposited a thousand about an hour ago, and took it out before it had got cold, and now you want to put it back again." "Well, my friend," said SJ, "me and the boys just wanted to find out how the thing worked."—Youth's Companion.

SATURDAY, JUNE 24, 1905.
We read with considerable interest the following article which appeared in the Louisville Courier-Journal of last week:
WITH HIS MASTER.
JERRY W. MAY, COLORED, WENT
THROUGH CIVIL WAR.
NEVER MISSES REUNIONS—HOW
HE GOT "OLD MISSI'S" A
PENSION.
An interesting figure at Georgia
headquarters yesterday was Jerry W.
May, who has the distinction of being
one of the few Negroes who fought
in the Confederate army. Jerry is a mail carrier at Macon, and has been in the service for over 20 years. Each year, when
the time for the Confederate reunion
rolls around Jerry asks for his vacation
and accompanies Camp Smith to
quarantine at a old Confederate
This is the fourteenth reunion he has
attended, and as he is apparently in
good health he will, probably attend
more of them.
During the war he was the body
sculptor of the war museum of Georgia
who enlisted and served throughout
the long contest as a private. His
master was a member of the Seventh
Georgia regiment of Harrison's brigade. Whenever he had the opportunity to music as he expresses it, when he it now, and joined in the fight.
After the war his master, who had lost everything he possessed by the ravages of the Federal army, moved to Prescott, Ark., leaving Jersey in Mamaroneck, N.J., where his widow was left alone, with nothing on which she might rely for a support.
Jerry began the task of securing a pension for his "old missis," and after several years of hard work he was succeeded by another woman, she was enabled to live comfortably.
This article was written and published in the "write ups" of the great annual reunion in Louisville, Ky., of the organization known as the "Unitarian Church," and of theization which has for its object the glorifying of treason, and one of a character, which would not be tolerated in any other country but this. And, we might remark that we never had the opportunity to meet the leading paper of the South, gotten up so regardless of expense as was the souvenir number of that able journal of that meeting. No other occasion has been deemed worthy of such artistic display of color work, illustration, etc., etc., which so to making a newspaper a thing of beauty and a joy.
But it was not of the Courier-Journal that we wished most to call attention, but the high character of Jerry W. May who, according to Southern
to except by his first or "given name," ethics, could not be properly referred And who, out of genuine human feelings of sympathy, did more for his empathy, have and not had the respect (2). Yet had this black brother quench to quench his thirst with a glass of soda water or perchance, something more characteristic of Kentucky; or wished to dispel the pangs of hunger or rest his weary limbs in Kentucky; or wished to other thousands of white brothers of that reunion of men who fought to keep May in slavery he would have retufisals, insults and outrages on all sides. Worth, under a black skin, in securing for its possessor ordinary human rights for nothing in this country.
HOWARD UNIVERSITY
Howard University seems to be in a particularly bad fix. The trouble seems to have originated from efforts put forth to "industrialize" the institution, in conformity with what he can dispense with higher education and needs simply to learn how to hoe cotton and cobble shoes. The Afro-American has investigated that theory and finds that it involves discontent, disunity, church societies, banks, stores, newspapers that it throws him out of the Civil Service, that it even invades his home and deprives him of his organ, mando; lino and piano. The conclusion is that the industrialization is a good thing; but as a substitute for it, is a monumental. Now the Afro-American is perfectly aware that he is not dependent upon the Jim Crow crowd for higher education—he can get it with of their omission.
Of course it has been of great advantage to him that there have been public schools in the South, but he would have educational advantages if not one such system were warranted; because the lack of intelligence that filiteracy is the most determined enemy of our system of government. So the educative process will go on in spite of all the Jim Crow kickers can do and they might as well cool out go way and they would be able to hide their clues. The Afro-American is represented in all the famous schools of science and art in the world—he is studying in London and Paris and Vienna; in Berlin, Heidelberg and Bonn; in Harvard and Yale; in the Canadian Universities. He has sense enough to know what he wants and if he cannot get what he wants in one shoel he will go to another.
The attempt to saw Howard University down to an industrial institution must be construed as an effort to eliminate the Afro-American from the profession-law, medicine and theology; from the city of Chicago; from a strenuous opposed by every intelligent man, white as well as Afro-American; and President Gordon ought to be presented with a hari-kari sword. It is not likely that he has the high Japanese training which would impel him to use it but it might suggest the propriety of trekking back to Iowa.
Because some visiones men of the race had a battle on an excursion train down in Georgia one Davis, an Afro-American of Atlanta, scored entire race in a sermon last Sunday. These were his words:
"The tactics and procedure of the new Negro are destroying him. His reckless disregard for moral purity, a disposition to ignore the church, the gospel, the measure, an ignorant and malicious disregard for the law of God and the rights of men that is daily being practiced by the majority of the race convince me that the Negro is a lawless being, and he is a liar if he is at the risk of being called a liar by the reverend brother, THE AP-EAL will say that the statement is in toto. Criminal statistics made Secretary of the Afro-Americans commit no more crime than white men. In the matter of the disregard of the rights of man the white man is a greater sinner than his brother in black, for having control of affairs in the Afro-American and deprived him of nearly every civil right. Even it all that Davis said were true, it would be small business for an Afro-American to call the attention of the world to the wrong doings of his own race in such an unwarrantable
Now that Davis has spoken as he has it is possible that the Atlanta Constitution may endeavor to foist him on the people as a "New Negro Moses."
We wish to call the careful and prayerful attention of those of our saintly white brethren who are so sadly distressed at the moral condition of the brother in black, to the work of the 110 official graffers. We do not think that the result of such investigation will be that all white men are thieves though the data some what warrants that conclusion. That conclusion is certainly legitimate when the Afro-American is the subject of the analysis and the investigation is conducted by one of our Southern brethren, or a Northern resourceful or seeker in the Southland.
The 47th problem of Euclid was demonstrated many years ago, and while mathematicians have for amusement constructed many other proofs, none of them have contended that it was actually necessary. The fact that any proposition is proved is that only reason why a thing needs to be proved and proved again, is that it has never been proved at all. And we have noticed that all the assertions as to the mental, moral or physical inferiority of the Afro-American art and proved and proved again by the mathematicians, who are hankering after a place at the pie counter or an inning when the booble is to be scooped.
One of the Puzzles
Even a modest young girl thinks strange that a man doesn't understand all the queer clothes a woman wears. Yet the average man who has been married forty years, and who has had children, can not describe a woman's ralment to save his life. He would rather undertake *to*, build a truss bridge than to dress the baby. He would be deeply offended if anyone called him dull, yet these small things are apparently his high con- dition.

A Political History of Slavery. With a limited introduction by Whitelaw Redd. Two volumes. $v.o. Get. $1.50. By mail. $5.00. New York: G. F. A. Press.
"A Political History of Slavery," by Wm. Fennery, is a short book on the controversy over the slavery question, from the early days of the 18th century to the early days of the Reconstruction period in the United States.
There is an introduction. Whitelaw Redd. Reedlaw Redd. Smith's career and which gives quite an extended criticism of these two very instructive volumes.
strategists Von Moltke.
The events which led up to the war of ww. germany are thus described by author:
"Bismark prepared the war. Napoleon III rewarded it the great burgage it gave to the enemy. They might have stopped it too soon, but he himself with a grimace. He saw war our certain ruin; he knew our terrors in everything; a the hoil the the purity."
Mr. Reid says: "This Political History is written, and is not written from having many of the events from the inside as they occurred, from a lifelong familiarity with the subjects, and from access to much unpublished information and Governor Brough, in the records of the state office held during a critical period of communion with some of the actors." Again: "As time goes on fuller justice is communion with some of the actors by which a free people enlarged the bounds of freedom, to communities and types of Anglo-Saxon means for the correct wrongs and the better development of the nation," Greely first among public educators, to Chase and Seward, Stanton and Welles, and cabin and cabin ministers, and finally to the superior of them all, and certainly the politician of the time, Abraham Lincoln.
In Chapter I, the author says: "If there was slavery, was depreciated by the men who supported such an institution was inconsistent with Christian civilization, inconsistent with the nature of slavery for which the colonies had contended, and which constitute the basis of our Republic, we must have a greater charaer a name so repulsive to freedom. We must have a greater charaer to the public sentiment of that day. There was no state feeling that it was injured to society feeling that it was injured to society. Its ultimate extinction was generally confidently expected: emancipation would suppose that if there had been no initial intention of Maryland and it is not unreasonable to suppose that if there had been no initial intention of Maryland and it is not unreasonable to suppose that have followed in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky and

"Some years ago one who had been a student of the anti-slavery context endeavored to be faithful of current history in dealing with the genesis of modern abolitionism, and the first step in the first Apostle of Emancipation, Goo, was the writer who challenged the "truth of slavery," and the first Osborne to be mentioned before Lundy or Garrison, but strangely overlooked the claims of another whose career was in Woolman, a friend, who was born in New York and lived at the count of his early life and career, exceeding settlements. "When about 28 years of age he visited North Carolina, where he met a group of holders and wrote an essay entitled 'Considerations on the Keeping of Negroes.'" which was published, had a wide circulation.

CIVIL WAR TIMES
Civil War Times. By Daniel Wait Howe, author of the Puritan Republic, $ yoy. Pt. 421. $1.50. Indianapolis: Dobson Merrell Co.
The war of '61-5 will never cease—at least in the present generation to be a perennial and never failing topic of absorbing interest. This is because it was a war of giants; because many of those giants still survive its vicissitudes; its "hair breadth escapes" and the imminent deadly breach"; its long and dreadful marches; its Gettysburg and Chickamaugas; because the finale of that conflict profoundly influenced the civilizations of the world; because its echoes still reverberate in all the various activities of American life.
Because of these things the author's volume is interesting. It can be read with profit by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has hitherto remained unwritten, is brought forth by Mr. Howe.
One of the most interesting chapters in the book is one dealing with the isolation of the Confederate states from the Union, us, nearly every important Confederate commander favored the enlistment of black soldiers; that the matter was finally resolved by the Confederate bill authorizing the enlistment of Negro soldiers; that the Confederate commander of the Senator Hunter. That when the desperate circumstances of the Confederate war saw the deoom of Richmond and the 'cause, a draft order was issued to force the deoom of Richmond to federate flag, but that before it could be made effective, the fall of Richmond, and the end of the war, this Chapter is especially interesting at under its banner. That is very interesting chapters in the book. The style is clear, uninhibited, and the author has written instructively.

In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revolting creatures of the Revolution were again the same as the birds and elsewhere throughout the country.
The events which led up to the war with Germany are thus described by the autism. Bismarck prepared the war, Napoleon III, wanted it, the great bourgeoise looked on. They might have stopped it by an increase in the number of women, himself with a grimace. He saw in this war our certain ruin; he knew our terrible inferiority in everything; he could have unleashed the left, the tier-part, the four-fronts, the right side, the right side of the folly of the attack, and supported by this strength of opinion, have said to the Tulleries, to Paris it needs be.

HENRY WARD BEECHER
Henry Ward Beecher. By Lyman Abbott. L1.5th Boston and New York: Dr. Abbott made the acquaintance of Mr. Beecher in 1855, and he became mate friend of his from that time forward. He attended Dr. Beecher's church in Boston, and he gave an outline of the character of the great preacher. The book is therefore Beecher as it is a sketch of his Life and character as he appeared to be an anti-slavery reformer before and during the civil war period, he tells in five chapters, full of details, of the anti-slavery campaign in England, and the autumn of that year from a season on the continent, his intention being to re-enter the slave trade and otherwise. At that time the symmetry of the aristocratic and moneyed classes was overwhelmingly in favor of the slave trade, and hatred of the North had, at the time of Mr. Beecher's arrival, assumed alarming in all probability would be forced by publication of the report to the British government, to the effect that the British government, then going forward in America in behalf of the South, was the state of the country. The Americans residing in London were, of course, greatly alarmed over such a sued Dr. Beecher to make a lecture in England, speak to the British people, and to counteract the work of agents in the name of British emmency by their speeches and publications. Any other man socks and blood-publications. Any boots and shoes and the British publicard consider perfectly legitimate to prevent an unpopular speaker from being heard.
ANTISEMITISM.
Antism. By Bernard Lazare, Translated from the French, 8vo. Pp. 284. Cloth gilt top. 32. 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 histiocentious between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps the histiocentious habit learn how much of proselytizing has been carried on reciprocally between the He-terans but resulted in a greater mixture of race and religion, and it mit. The author does not believe in race distinctions whether these be founded upon the color of the skin. So long, however, as the opinion prevails that races are distinct and that there is superiority on the one hand over the other, the author and Gentile as well as between black and white. There are too many illustrative examples of this in history, and this book can be read with profit by many who are called to decide questions daily arising here.
FORMS OF ENGLISH POETRY.
Johnson's Forms of English Poetry. By Charles F. Johnson, L. H. D. Professor of English Literature in Trinity College, Hartford, Cioth. 12 mo., 365 pages. Price: $1. American 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, and its main divisions both by forms and by subject matter. The historical development of eight of these divisions is 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's love of poetry.

Jarvis, the heeler and saver of soles, at 83 E. Fourth street, says, in one of his street car signs: "I can mend shoes better than I can write," and, it the sign is a fair specimen of his work as a writer, he's right, as he can mend shoes all right if he cannot write all right.

THE GLENN SONG RECITAL
At Odeon Hall Tuesday Night an Artistic, a Financial and a Social Success.
The much heralded Song Recital to be given by Mr. Franc-D. Glenn, tenor robusto, of the Oberlin Conservatory of Music, took place at Odeon Hall last Tuesday evening. The pretty hall was filled with one of the most fashionable audiences that has been seen in St. Paul in years, and all were very high-fitted with the execlent program rendered.
Of course the interest was principally centered in the handsome young tenor who made his initial bow before a Northwestern audience and whatever may have been the expectations of the most critical and exacting they were fully realized. Mr. Glenn possesses a full vibrant voice of splendid timber and great purity. Not unworthy of special mention is his clear enunciation and delightful vocal expression. He filled eleven number of the prosecco's voices, "Beloved it is Morn," by Francis Ailward; "How Deep the Slumber of the Floods," by Leee; "Bird and the Rose," by Amy E Horrocks; "Toreador Hola," by Trotte; "Caro Mio Ben," by Glordani; "An Meer," by Fr. Schubert; "Bittero," by Hugo Wolf; "Briter uet he maunht," by Richard Strauss; "Where are You Walk," aria by Handel; "Mother O Mine," by tours; "Serenade of Don Juan," by Tchaikowsky. Each number was a gem and was rapurously applauded, but owing to the large number of his selections he did not respond to the encores other than to bow his acknowledgments. There were numerous Italians and Germans in the audience whose enjoyment his numbers sung, and whose language was evidence that they were correctly rendered. In the whole Mr. Glenn proved himself to be a thorough, cared-for man, and pleased his auditors in every particular.
Miss Martha/ Matz, of the Chicago Conservatory of Music, displayed rare ability as a violinist. Her technic was marvelous; her numbers were well received.
Miss Mayme Weir was, as she always is, A No.1, and of course everyone was pleased with her reading.
The comic duet by Messrs. C. D. Jackson and C. H. Miller was well done and well received.
The Robison-Weir orchestra, comprising Prof. W. A. Robison, violinist, Prof. W. A. Weir, planist, C. D. Jackson, violoncellist, T. R. Morgan, cornetist, made its first public appearance on this occasion and was quite

a pleasing surprise. As each member of the new fiedged orchestra is a thorough musician, the combination produced most excellent music.
The recital was gotten up by the ladies of the altar society of St. Peter Claver church and the ladies may be congratulated upon their signal success in every particular.
There was a grand crowd present at the Colonade Dancing school last Wednesday evening, fully 80 persons were present, including about 15 from Minneapolis. Principal Winstead desires to state that persons who wish to bring friends who are not regular patrons must obtain invitations from him in advance, or such persons will not be admitted.

Little Homer Cannon, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs. M. O. Cannon, was badly cut on the wrist Monday morning by a sickle in the hands of a white boy. In the absence of their mother his two older brothers hurried with him to the nearest physician who dressed and took five stitches in the wound. The little fellow is doing nicely.
After next Sunday's service and through the months of July and August the choir of the St. Thomas mission will take a vacation, resuming their places the first Sunday in September. During the six months of its existence the members of the choir have established an enviable record by their attendance both at rehearsal and service and which has been highly beneficial to themselves and the church. A number more of voices will be added to it in the fall and during the next year their work will include several cantatas.

FURNITURE SENSE
Some people who are not given to thinking imagine that a house that sells on the installment plan necessarily carries trashy merchandise. Nothing is farther from the truth, so far as this house is concerned. For 22 years we have catered to the wants of the people of the Northwest and never a dissatisfied customer. The goods we carry are made by the VERY BEST MANUFACTURERS in America, and the only difference in this house and others which claim to be exclusive and high-class is that we make good furniture easy for the man of modest means, while the so-called exclusive houses shut him off entirely by making him pay cash.
Again, it is thought by some that an installment house asks higher prices than those which sell for cash. This is another "visionary theory," which is so far from the truth as to be ridiculous. One visit here will explode it. We sell at lower prices than any exclusive house, and WE GIVE YOU CREDIT BECAUSE WE KNOW YOU NEED IT, and because we can sell twice as much merchandise that way as we can for cash.
Take these matters home and think them over. They are worth the consideration of any sane man or woman.
The Colonade Dancing School had its usual good crowd present last Wednesday evening. The usual good time may be counted on for next Wednesday day evening. Come early and stay late.

Mrs. Ella Smith is prepared to furnish ice cream and cake of her own make, also strawberry shortcake and other light refreshments. Open evenings until 11:30. After church Sunday evening or any evening the gentlemen may bring their sweethearts or their wives, and enjoy themselves. No. 352 Cedar street between Fourth and Fifth streets.
The Colonnade Dancing Academy had a splendid crowd on last Wednesday evening and all enjoyed themselves. The splendid music by Prof. Lafayette Mason and Armant's orchestra gave the usual satisfaction. Armant's orchestra will be present at all the assemblies of the Colonnade Dancing Academy, corner of University and Farrington Aves. Be sure to attend next Wednesday evening. Arthur Winstead, principal.
The Colonade Dancing Academy seems to be pleasing the public immensely as the number of patrons is constantly on the increase. The hall is a very nice one, has a fine floor and everything is as an sung as can be. Despite all counter attractions every Wednesday night the usual large and highly pleased crowd is present. Principal Winstead is constantly on the lookout to please his patrons and especial attention is paid to beginners.

Sketches of Southern Mystery, Treason and Murder.
A book has lately been published which every Afro-American man and woman should read—every friend of the race should read—every American citizen who loves justice should read.
The author, Capt. James Brewster, describes the horrible crimes the South commits against civilization—scenes of blood which might shock the most degraded savages—but which are Sunday sports for the white people of the South.
Some chapters have all the absorbing interest of romance, especially the heroic defense of Robert Charles and his heroic death. Also the scenes in Kemper jail, when the devoted children of Judge Chisolm were shattered with their father. And the steadfast courage of the Afro-American, Walter Kiley, whom extorters sought in vain to extort a false charge against the judge.
The book should be read by all who would understand the South. Agents wanted.

Original of "Sindbad."
That oriental tale of Sindbad the sailor, is believed to owe a good deal to the legend of St. Brendan, the Irish saint. According to the legend, St. Brendan sailed the ocean for seven years in search of the island that had once been Adam's Eden. During that time he regularly visited the island of Sheep, where the sheep are as large as oxen; the island of Birds, that are really fallen angels, and another island, which is really a big fish named Jascon, trying to get his mouth into his mouth. St. Brendan used to encamp on the fish on Easter day and go on to the birds on Easter Monday. He found the Eden island at last, but no one has seen it since, though it appeared on seventeenth century maps and in an eighteenth century treaty between Spain and Portugal. Probably Irish monks took this legends with them to the east in the ninth century.
"Hint" Was Effective.
An Australian customs officer tells this story: "For some time we had in the customs gig a great stalwart Japanese named Mingo, who also acted as office boy. He had at at one time been a soldier, and fought in Acheen. Mingo lived at my quarters. One evening we had a dance, which I suppose disturbed Master Mingo, for getting tired of the frivolity he suddenly appeared on the veranda with a lighted lantern and a clock. He coolly walked round and deliberately held the lantern and clock in the face of each guest in turn. The timepiece indicated 2:30. Our friends, who fully appreciated Mingo's gentle hint, immediately departed."
