Courthouse To Be Preserved What Children Fear Most What Children Fear Most Old-Time Naval Equipment Old-Time Naval Equipment Dawson Citizens Enjoy Life The Man Without Content VOL. 21. NO. 32. The historic old Cahokia courthouse was offered to the city council of East St. Louis as a gift to the city by its owner, A. Cella, of East St. Louis, provided the city would remove the structure and place it in a public park, says the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. The offer was referred to the committee on public buildings, who recommended the acceptance of the building. The courthouse was built in 1716, five miles south of East St. Louis, in what afterwards became known as the old village of Cahokia. It stood on the banks of the Mississippi river, which later changed its channel and left the building a mile from the stream. The town was held in the building from 1716 to 1809, after which the land upon which the structure stood changed hands several times, and in 1903 Mr. Cella, who lives at 435 Collinsville avenue, purchased the building and moved it to the world's fair in St. Louis, where it was exhibited as one of the historic features of the Mississippi valley. After the fair the Chicago Historical society offered Mr. Cella a substantial sum for the courthouse, but he refused. In 1910, which the courthouse was built was first explored by Louis Joilet and Father Marquette in 1673 and remained under the control of France until 1765. The first trading A well-known professor has recently made some interesting studies with regard to the causes of fear in the infantile mind. A study of fear in the youthful subjects was made by distributing hundreds of lists containing all manner of cases such as might excite that emotion. Parents, teachers and other persons—even the little ones themselves—marked off such items as the latter really feared. After reducing all of the replies to a table, it was found the highest number feared thunderstorms, the next highest reptiles. Then followed in order, according to the number fearing them, strangers, darkness, fire, death, domestic animals, disease, wild animals, water, insects, ghosts and others. A comparison of an equal number of boys and girls showed that the girl feared 1,631 things on the list, and the boy feared 1,133 things. The girls exceeded the boys in the fear of everything except water, high places and strangers. Very strange to modern eyes would be the armament of Great Britain's medieval navy. The very names of many of the implements of attack and defense sound queer. According the books, in the year 1337 the vessels of the navy were furnished with "espringaloids"; ancient sponging guns; "haubergeons" costs small; "macki: small, small hearts; bows, arrows, large shields placed at the sides, and serving the double purpose of protection against the sea and against the enemy; lances and "firing barrels." As early as 1338 cannon formed part of the armament of ships, and about 1372 guns and gunpowder were commonly used. Among the stores belonging to one vessel of that time were three iron cannon with five hand gun and three old stone bags, probably for shot. Another ship had an iron cannon with two chambers and one brass gun with one chamber. Among other implements of war used in that time were "cannonballs" or stone shot throwers and John Scudder McLain of Minneapolis, in his recent book, "Alaska and the Klondike," says of a famous arctic city: "Dawson has a good theater, an athletic clubhouse for winter sports and athletic grounds well prepared for baseball, cricket and tennis. A peculiar institution John has, the crier, known as John, who parades the streets on a bell, and announces the hour and place of forthcoming events. The long summer days simplify arrangements of this character materially. The baseball crank and the office boy are not compelled to devise excuses for the neglect of their business in the middle of the afternoon witness a baseball game. The game does not begin until 8 o'clock in the evening at the theater, recognizing a stiff competitor, does not ring up its curtain until 10 o'clock.

He called on the tailors, he tried hand-me-downs; posts and forts were located at various places on or near the Mississippi river and later became five villages, extending from Kaskaskia on the south to Cahokia on the north. The courthouse remained the seat of government for the French, the Northwestern Territory and the new state of Illinois until 1809, when the seat was moved from Cahokia to Belleville. The original government as a county was established in 1809 by Gov. St. Clair and was called St. Clair county. Cahokia, being located in the great American bottoms, attracted different tribes of Indians, and the government commissioners met at the house of Col. Whiteside and adjourned to the home of George Blair, where they determined that it was to the best interests of the public to change the place of holding court and recommended that a new county seat be located in a corner of George Blair's cornel, which was done, and the foundation of Belleville, which has since remained the county seat, was laid. Several incidents at the airlines between the Indians and French occurred near the courthouse and have added to its historical interest. The greatest Chief Pontic, one of the greatest Indian generals known, laid conspirations for massacres near the place and assembled his Indian tribes to attack the French at this point. The ratio of girls to boys in the fear of rats and mice was 75 to 13, as might be expected. It was also ascertained that fear in the boys increases from the seventh to the fifteenth year, and then declines, while in the girls it increases more steadily from the fourth to the eighteenth year before. The fear of humiliation and lightning, repellents and machinery was found to increase with age. Another novel inquiry enlarged upon the fear of ghosts in children. By questioning the little ones and tabulating their answers it was discovered that the most frequent source of their knowledge of ghosts was in stories told by other children. Stories read by them ranked second in frequency. Of all the other sources servants had been the most frequent source of pictures, a fewer number from images, one per cent, had first heard of ghosts from their parents. It was discovered that fear belief universally accompanied belief in such spectres. "murtherens," which were smaller and threw any kind of shot.

They were loaded over night and were fired in the morning. Froissart tells of a bomb used at one of these ancient sieges that "might be heard five leagues off in the daytime and ten at night. The report of it was so loud that it seemed as if all the devils were loose." Bristol ordinance was first cast England in the year 1535. The pieces had various names.

PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY. AUGUST 12, 1905. ROCKEFELLER TO BUILD A CHURCH AS HIS MEMORIAL If a sky-scraper office building is indigenous, as it were, to twentieth century progress, why not a sky-scraper church? As modern enterprise in the material world often requires enormous plants for natural development, why As modern enterprise in the material world often requires enormous plants for natural development, why should not theology, in keeping pace with the progress and demands of the times, be extensively housed, also? John D. Rockefeller, oil king, and ever wondered, has pondered these questions, and answered them in the affirmative. He is arranging to build in Cleveland, Ohio, one of the biggest churches in the world. Announcement of his intention has just been made by the Rev. Dr. Charles A. Eaton, pastor of the Euclid Baptist church of that city, where Mr. Rockefeller began his remarkable career and where he will work. It is said that Mr. Rockefeller will donate $10,000,000 toward carrying out his plans, including the erection of the building and the endowment of the work to be carried out there. A great family house for the individual, rather than a family church, the new structure is to be. Modern metropolitan ideas and land limitations require that the church be provided to provide room for the many branches of ecclesiastical undertaking to be housed there. Present plans contemplate an immense structure, every foot of the floor space to be used for church purposes. The nearest approach to this in the world will be the new Broadway tabernacle, in New York, which is to mount ten stories in the air. This new giant of churches to be his greatest and most lasting monument. It will be a memorial of his philanthropy and interest in religious work. The Euclid Avenue Baptist congregation of Cleveland is the first with which the oil king connected himself. At that time he was simply a grocer's clerk, living in a modest house and of elegant finance had reached his ears; before his fertile brain had conceived the idea that the oil industry was beckoning him to shape its marvelous future. Having been superintendent of the Sunday school for many years and deeply interested in everything that pertained to the welfare of the church and denomination, Mr. Rockefeller never forgot his first ecclesiastical home. It must have bound him to it more strongly than to any of the more magnificent churches with which he has since been allied. It must not be imagined that the church is dependent upon the oil mignate's bounty. A big church it has been from its foundation, and a big church it always will be. Surrounding conditions, however, are such as to place it particularly in line with the ideas of growth and enterprise that he meant for it. When built, the present structure was located upon the best part of Euclid avenue at that time, as now, among the most beautiful residence streets of the United States. The spread of commercialism gradually encroached upon these precincts. The district now partakes more of a business than of a residential nature. The church has grown in institutionalism; but it is large and prosperous still, and many of the best and wealthiest families of Cleveland are connected with it. Even at that, a contribution of $10,000,000, made by the richest man in the world, is not to be rejected inadvisely. The plans of this unprecedented contribution, are heartily made by the pastor. The Rev. Dr. Eaton enjoys the confidence of the oil magnate, and the ambitious plans for the church have been largely worked out by him. The pastor was engaged in work in Toronto, Ontario, for the church's attention. In selecting him for the work at Cleveland, it seems that the oil king's keen judgment of men did not err. "The new church," said the Rev. Dr. Defective Page Eaton, the other day, in explaining the scope of the new enterprise, "will be the biggest in Ohio, to a certainty, probably the biggest in America. That it will be the biggest Protestant church in the world I am sure. I am sanguine enough to believe that it will be the greatest church in the world as well. Width of the congregation and of church work in the last few years has made necessary a new building. Work on this will be started as soon as the necessary plans have been completed. "This great opportunity will be seized to enlarge the church, broaden its scope, enhance its usefulness to the community, and to branch into decided novel and radical lines of religious activity. "Our work," continued the pastor, "will be that which many other churches have included. They have moved out from business centers as the residence centers have moved. They have remained family churches. "Ours will be a church for the individual. It will take the place of the home that, perchance, lies far away. We will make one big family of the homeless men and women who live downtown—who may be fairly well up in this world's goods, but really have no home. "Why is a sky-scraper necessary? Well, in the first place, downtown and housing to close to permit our old-style church that would be big enough to accommodate our work. "Necessity determines that we must enter into, or at least accept, the spirit of the modern metropolitan building idea. If we cannot have land enough to spread over, we can, at least, go up in the air, where there is plenty of room. "Instead of having a magnificent space that is full of emptiness, we can have space to be used profitably. We want less architectural adornment and more room in which to work. "To do the work before us, we must attract. To do that, we must advertise. A big church advertises itself. It thus, automatically, takes care of the work which it accomplishes. It draws the people and houses them, because it can draw them. "We need more room, because we wish to establish a home for homeless people. "That team covers a great many thousands in a large city—people who are not homeless in the sense that they are anything like vagrants, but people who, although even well-liked, are not well-liked in the truest sense of the word. "Dining rooms, club rooms, entertainment rooms are what we want—a place good and attractive enough to draw any one who wishes a real home to which you go. "Especially are we after the man who boards. The man who puts up at a hotel and pays $5 a day is just as homeless as the clerk who rooms in a boarding house at that much a week. Hall bedrooms and parlor suits do not make a home. Religion is not be minimized in the modern church. It will be emphasized more strongly than ever. But religion will not be all we have to offer. "I mean that we will not simply be holding continuous prayer meetings. The church, however, will not be a mere club. It will be a church, first, last, and all the time; a Christian church, whose aim will be the bettering of men's lives. But it will seek to obtain that object in ways slightly different from the usual aim of the people may be beated in the auditorium of the present church. The new auditorium, it is estimated, will seat at least 4,500. Providing an ample place for public worship will be one of the least features of the proposed structure, however. There will be Sunday school rooms, rooms for men's clubs and women's clubs, gymnasiums, banquet rooms, reception rooms, parlor, spaces for library and reception rooms for the pastor, and all the other accommodations that a host of twentieth century church activities require. The church will be the enterprise realize that it would be better, possibly, to confine all these accommodations to a lower level, but modern metropolitan conditions place a limit upon lateral extension. Land surface at the disposal of this church, as is the case in most large cities, is comparatively small. The only thing to do is to go up in the business enterprise has found this necessary for some years. There is little wonder that big downtown churches, branching out into institutional work, find it necessary to erect skyscrapers in order to provide accommodations for the many branches undertaken. The Rev. Eaton, to whom Mr. Rockefeller has intrusted the working out of plans for the big church, is remarkable in more respects than one. He is a forceful speaker, an orator of unusual eloquence, a leader and administrator of surprising ability. The men in his church are devoted to him, and as an organizer of great movements he is an unqualified success.—Montreal Herald. Effect of "Gin Sandwich!" "No, thank you," said the other man, and riding on the water wagon just at present. "Whatever boosted you on to it?" was the chorus. "I had a gin sandwich in Baltimore the other day," was the response, "and I have not been doing much on the drinking line since." "What sort of bread goes with the sandwich?" was the next inquiry. "I think it's an invention peculiar to Baltimore, and the other sulturous places," he began; "at least, no other town ever put me up against anything like it. I was dared into taking a sandwich and walking back to the hotel. "The sandwich consists of a pint of beer, an interval of 100 seconds, a drink of 'nigger', another 100 seconds, and a second pint of beer. "I got back to the hotel, but I could not tell you whether I walked up the rode, in the elevator or just simply floated." Another Meant Man. "I have heard a great deal about mean men," said the man with the black diar, "but the meanest man I ever heard of lives in the town where I was born. He is a real estate agent, and as grasping as a Serooge before the Christmas ghosts. He had an old house at the east end of the town that was ready to fall to pieces any moment. The walls actually did bulge out one day. When he collected that month's rent he calmly told the lessee that the rent would be $1 more a month thereafter. The astonished woman pointed at the bulging walls and said: "More rent! and with those bulging walls? "Certainly, madam. You have more room in the house now; consequently, more rent must be paid!"

Chinese Doctors Have Skill Chinese Doctors Have Skill Turtle With Long Pedigree Turtle With Long Pedigree Stately Ruins in Rhodesia Something Like a Swarm Something Like a Swarm Guile of Kansas Farmer The method of treating sick persons adopted by Chinese doctors in some cities is similar to that of the other physicians of the United States and those of Great Britain. They depend much, however, on the examination of the pulse. Their sense of the heart is fuller. Their belief that it is said they can determine the condition of the heart as well as some of the other organs merely by the feebleness or strength of the theats; but they say there are no less than twelve different movements of the arteries in the human body, all of which can be detected by feeling the fingers, wrist and arm. When a patient calls on him for examination, the doctor first presets the arm, wrist, fingers, touching nearly every part. Sometimes ten or fifteen minutes is occupied with this examination. Then he may ask if the patient is married or single, and also his age; but this is about the limit of the examination. Apparently he can tell the nature of the disease without questioning further, and if the caller wishes a prescription he writes one or more Chinese characters on a generous sheet of paper. Rinsing a bell, he hands the prescription to the Chinese attendant who enters, for each physician has his own shop, filled with the ingredients A giant leatherback turtle was received at the American Museum of Natural History yesterday. It is said to be the first that has been taken along the Atlantic coast in fifteen years, as well as the largest ever brought to shore in this country. This one weighs 716 pounds. It was caught off Block island and was presented to the museum by G. M. Long & Co. of New London. It was alive when brought from the sea, but died shortly after being landed. A wound from a harpoon shows just over the wound. Upon its arrival at the museum it was taken to the basement, where the museum artist made a sketch of it for the official records. Experts in reptilian genealogy say that the leatherback family is a most ancient one, and that if Adam had ever gone down to the seashore he might have seen one of them. The family can boast of an older line even than that of the serpent that tempted Eve. The experts say that the leatherback is the oldest reptile family in the world. Leatherback is an everyday name. When the men who know all about its Richard N. Hall, who has given eight years to the study of ancient monuments in southern Rhodesia, says that none of the hundreds of ruins has been more than partially explored, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. Many important ruins have been seen only by casual travelers and the work of unearthing only a part of the Great Zimbabwe area would be more than the labor of a lifetime. Still, researches have made progress in the last few years. There are in Rhodesia no less than 300 distinct ruins and groups of ruins. Only a few scores of these are entitled to rank as "ancestor." The largest part of them probably does not date back to the nineteenth, fourthteenth and fifteenth centuries. There is overwhelming evidence at the Great Zimbabwe of ancient civilization and arts possessed by the builders of the earliest period. The Zimbabwe temple is the finest and most intact example of a nature worshiping shrine known to the world. Its construction We very frequently hear of snake and fish stories and sometimes a pretty good bee story is told, says the Huntsville (M.o.) Herald. Our friend, Bill Hefflin, hardly ever relates anything unless he knows what he is talking about, and all who know him won't question his veracity one moment or doubt the correctness of any story Bill may tell if he claims he has a personal knowledge of anything connected with it. Not long ago Mr. Hefflin and Squire O'Bryan were talking about bees and the manner of swarming and Mr. Hefflin was reminded of the immense swarm he once saw. He was down with fighting for his country and along about the last of that sanguinial conflict, when Bill saw that the southern boys had to surrender to superior numbers, that he saw the big The *Kansas* fields were full of wheat *awaiting to be shorn*; the full of grief, and partly full of corn.

One of the curious features of Chinese medical treatment is the way in which the physicians administer their remedies. Nearly all the offices of the principal doctors have what he can be called a physician's department, which is a spacious apartment, well lighted, frequently ornamented with Oriental pottery and pictures and containing small tables, each with two or three chairs. If the invalid does not wish to take his medicine at home, he is ushered into this room, and seated at one of the tables drinks his prescription as he would a cup of tea or a glass of wine. The medicinal is in liquid form and served hot in dainty Chinese bowls, for most of it is composed of a decoction of herbs. Each table contains a bowl of raisins, and when the attendant brings in the medicine he also brings in a glass of tepid water. If the drink is bitter, as it usually is, the patient can eat some of the raisins to remove the taste, while with the water he rushes the medicine and then the next he is ready to go home, returning the next day for another examination and dose. — Chambers' Journal. history get to talking about it they refer to it as Dermocheilus coriacea, a name not conferred on it by Adam aforesaid. Proof that the family is the most ancient among reptiles is that the spinal column has no fixed attachment to the shell as in the case of more modern turtles that have evolved. "The museum was very glad to get to so rare a turtle," said Prof George H. Sherwood, one of the curators. "It is the most primitive of reptiles now with us. There was one caught in the Indian ocean some years ago that was larger. On land it could easily drag six men after it. It wasn't much larger than the one this is. It was caught in this country to my knowledge in a good many years. When we measured this one we found that it was 6 feet over all, that is, from antoit to tip of tail. The shell is 4 feet 10 inches long and 3 feet 1 inch wide. From tip to tip of flippers was 7 feet." If the skin does not wrinkle too much, it is be mounted and placed on exhibition.

It is quite certain that even the cruder methods at Zimbabwe of applying this knowledge, which was common to the ancient Semite peoples, were imported from the near east and did not originate in southeast Africa. The right ascension of the sun, the hellacal rising and the meridian passages of the stars are believed to have been noted at Zimbabwe. These ancient builders were also past masters in the science of military defense, the walls showing that the builders were miltiary giants of the right ascension. Their gold gists of the right ascension were designed and engraved, could not have been the work of an uncivilized people, and the hundreds of ancient gold mines show that they were skilled in metallurgy and picked out rich shoots, patches and pockets with marvelous cleverness. It is estimated that from these widespread mines they extracted $275,000,000 of gold. swarm of bees. Bill says one day while marching up the Mississippi valley with his command he saw bees swarming out of a hole in a big cliff. The hole, he says, was about three times the size of a hoghead and the bees filled the entire space and had nothing out of the hole. He did not know how long the bees had been coming out of the hole, but the swarm was two miles wide, one and a half miles thick and twenty miles long, and that they were two hours in passing a given point. Bill did not go into particulars as to how he got the dimensions of this great swarm of bees, nor when they settled, but he says the hole was left in the cliff, for he saw it. This is the biggest bee story we ever heard and it seems too big to be true, but Bill declares that his command was not on a retreat when he saw the swarm.

The Supreme Court of Mississippi has sustained the action of a lower court which convicted two boys on "nursery" evidence. Thus the grand old state of Vardanian extends to white boys a rule that has long prevailed in reference to Afro-Americans. By inviting the venerable Bishop Hood to visit his summer home, President Roosevelt again shows that he is too much of a man to be governed by a dictatoristic press. He's a big man all over. "My policy has been to get everything for the South when I saw the chance, and I tried to get it right or wrong, honestly or dishonestly, because I had to steal from us long enough." Thus till Talmil with a maness eagerness to break into the Mitchell class. It is an easy transition from political to financial dishonesty. Men who gain office by political skulduggery are properly trained for becoming accomplished boulders and grafters and thus the widespread corruption of our leisure man is an unique specimen. His inordinate vanity leads him to boast that he is dishonest. The Chicago strike petered out and the only tangible result is that many of our employees and out of employment and Chicago is out many millions of dollars. Just why it is hard to tell; but a fact is a fact even if it is unexplainable. It is a fact that nearly everything that is established in the country starts on a high plain and gradual path. Chaugauea has done. At first it was a high toned educational enterprise; now it is a more sensation monger. Still it can be said to the credit of Chaugauea that it has never had a large number of institutions can only be confined to those races who have derived their origin from the white races, not intrusting the welfare of the country in the hands of a race that has shown an utter incapacity to grasp, adopt, and carry, by laying all organized good government." A more ridiculous batch of lies was never fabricated. The maintenance of free institutions depends upon the intelligence and virtue two qualities which Southern Democrats are laboring to maintain on earth. The resolutions are a direct undertaking to ignorance. There are several important differences between a Southern lynching and a Northern race/riot. The New York riots occurred in a district of notoriously bad conditions, all-rights between rough elements. They lacked almost all of the barbarous features of a Southern lynching. Public confidence has been so rudely shaken by men of the highest social and political rank that the masses have almost no respect for the classes. It is an undeniable fact that the majority of the state legislatures are the griffers, and are an indescribable nuisance. But this is the natural and inevitable result of the political methods now in vogue, especially in the past, as soon as the legislature adjourns, the grand jury convenes and attempts to collar some of the rascals, but the effort is usually a mere flash in the pan. The reason is that the grand jury sometimes composed of very bad men. The New York Sun gives space to a "Southerner" who sends a long indigestion against Afro-Americans in the South, who are servants. The Sun is in error in supposing that the South is the Northern newspapers are of the old slave holding class. They are generally of the class of poor whites who never owned as much as the totoail of a servant "befo the war." The dispensaries would give Tillman the liquor, perhaps he would not be a slave, or he would perhaps keep his folly at home in South Carolina. So we wish him success in his raid upon the dispensaries. The detection of a band of cannibals in Hungary seems to indicate that a white skin does not always indicate a high degree of morality or civilization. "The affection lavished upon Negroes of the old regime and upon such of their descendants as follow their simple precepts of doglike devotion is one of the most baffling aspects of the Negro question as it presents itself to the northern observer of southern customs. For, coupled with it, it is a blissful experience. The gro- the "educated nigger," as they contemptuously call him down there." Thus saith one of the correspondents who are enlightening everybody upon the shades and aspects of THE PROBLEM, which so resembles that of squaring the circle. And by chance the writer has hit upon a happy phrase "the old black mammy." The devotion of the old black mammy was "doglike" and the affection of the old mistress was exactly of the kind bestowed upon a faithful old dog. It did not prevent the poor old black mammy's offspring from being "sold down the river;" nor restrain the young master from debauching the old black mammy's grandchild. It was the kind of affection; no, it was "doglike." It is to be noted that the almond-eyed, yellow-skinned Mongolian has actually set the members of the "superior race" to bully-ragging each other as viciously as a brace of irate tom cats. Thus the New York Times has castor into the ring and remarks: It is all very well for demagogic legislators from the Pacific Slope to demand, for the benefit of their hoodlum constituents, that the policy of the United States toward China shall be one of injury with insult added. It is also that the Mongolian with a wild and woody rejoinder, and some interesting developments may be expected. Meanwhile One Lung, Whang Dood and Sham Bang regard the proceedings of the Melican man with a "smile that is childlike and bland;" and the brother in black and washing Jap are interested spectators. The Nashville American says: "White Southern Republicans claim that if they could get rid of the Negro they would break up the solid South." Which reminds us that old Archimedes remarked that if he could find a "pou sto", he could upset the world. We don't know what a "pou sto" is, but we are very glad the old fellow did not find one lying around among the abandoned machinery upon the Isthmus of Panama. We have an idea that a certain class of so-called Southern Republicans are interested in butting into the plumber than in breaking up the Solid South. Not satisfied with boycotting our cotton goods, the heathen Chinese has the impudence to apply a similar process to our religious holdings. His Excellency, Kang Wu Wei, the Chinese reformer now in Boston, thus deplays things from the Chinese standpoint: "The doctrines of Christianity are Christianity. He taught us to love God and to love mankind and he inculcated the precepts of the Golden Rule. The intentions of your missionaries are very good, no doubt, but some of them have been a misunderstanding. He gave illumination to the Chinese. China regards your missionaries as children who are trying to teach her truths she has known for ages. Confucianism-can never be set aside for your mushroom faiths. It has been planted too long in China to be uprooted by the crazy patch religion is not split up and ground to powder like yours. It is whole, simple, homogeneous, pure and sweet." In Ohio, farmers, although they offer $2 a day and board are unable to secure enough harvest hands. It will readily occur to any thinking man that the white laborer of Ohio is lazy and shiftless and will not work when he has a dollar or two in his pocket until he goes dead broke, and so on. From various dissertations upon the subject occurring in Southern journals, we learn that precisely the American farmer is in the South. Since it is demonstrated that white Americans will not work and are lazy and shiftless, we suggest that the Ohio farmers import Italians. Send for Baron des Planches: When an institution embracing in its discernate such men at Levi P. Morton, ex-President of the United States; Chaucey M. Depew, United States Senator, and others of the United States, can assert to us as the ethical standards as the Forty Thieves of the Arabian Night, one can accept the story of Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde as true history. The Equitable scandal is rank enough to be the theme of an open act such ballads as: "My name was Captain Kidd, as I sailed, as I sailed."" In the cotton-belt states, on account of the dense ignorance of the masses, Democritus of Democritus is not about fear of a hereafter. But the case is different in a state like Maryland, where a great many voters know their right hands from the left. Accordingly 500 regular Democrats in the city of Baltimore are open to the idea that they have published a manifesto to that effect. This action stamps German as being an unscrupulous a rascal as Bigelow, and as poor a manager as Roijstvensky. The Nashville Paliadium has an article on the Jim-Crow law in which the spirit of flunkeljayism "The Negro knows his place and is willing to stay there." Now we venture to suggest that the Paliadium is not the official spokesman of the race, nor is the sentiment of the race. The Paliadium is certainly in error. The Paliadium is consents for the gang of hill-billies which Tennessee sent to the legislature to assign it a place and fix its status. The great commonwealth of Mississippi is in a state of excitement owing to the discovery of the fact that somebody's body is so constructed as to reflect upon the South, not merely by implication, but by direct statement. One of these "sums" is about as follows: A purchases a Texas oil well at so much and is compelled to sell for 25 per barrel of oil. What problems? You mustn't fool with Mississippi. In Cleveland, Ohio, a prominent white man was recently convicted of the crime of rape upon an Afro-American child of twelve years. This important result was secured through the strenuous efforts of Mr. Harry C. Smith, editor of the Cleveland Gazette, an American in the American foreword of the grand jury. We congratulate them both upon their noble and successful work. North Carolina is so far behind the times as to indict a Seventh Day Adventist for not observing the first day. North Carolina should be deheathenized. The Afro-Americans of Memphis are trying to raise a fund of $5,000 to have the Jim Crow law tested in the Supreme Court of Tennessee. NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN COUNCIL Annual Meeting August 30-31 September 1, 1905. To the Members of the National Afro-American Council, Organized from Local Organizations, such as Churches, Colleges, Benevolent Societies, Newspapers and other Race Organizations. Greeting: The Eighth Annual Session of the National Afro-American Council will be held in the office, August 30-31 September 1, 1905. The Necessity for the Meeting. The systematic efforts of the South disfranchising legislation and Jimcrow enactments, to insult, humiliate, and degrade its Afro-American citizens; the occurrence of mob murders in the cities; the demoralization of cities; the demoralization of the governors of several of the Southern States; the increase of race prejudices in all parts of the country, call loudly to the members of the National Afro-American Council and the friends of the governor; themselves and check these opinions. The hostility upon the part of the enemies of the race has been so persistent that many of our friends have become tindid and indifferent in our defense. It is with the view of combating this opposition of our enemies, we have worked to create a Friends and working for the absolute undying of all discriminations against the race, that this meeting is to be held, and we ask the hearty co-operation of every Afro-American who is interested in the welfare of his race. Why the Council Should be Supported. No other organization has done so much, through annual addresses to the people, through the public, and through the sentiment as the National Afro-American Council. No other organization of Afro-Americans has ever had the hardship to meet at the Capital of the Nation and openly criticise the policies of the government, to make some utterance against the bloody massacre at Wilmington, N. C., of a number of inoffensive men and women. A committee of the National Council called the President and called his attention to the negligence he stated that he had been advised by some prominent Afro-Americans to keep quiet on the subject, but he promised that in his next message to Congress he would call the National Council to take action so. The National Afro-American Council was the first organization of the race to institute a test case against the constitutionality of the disfranchising election laws of the Afro-American Council that was successful in getting an expression from President Roosevelt against the Lilly-Whiteism of the South. The representatives of this body were at the house when his manifesto breaking the backbone of his heresy was issued. Reduced Rates on Railroads. Delegates attending the National Afro-American Council at Detroit will have a third ticket and a third for the round trip from all points in the United States as far West as Cheyenne, Wyo., and all points in Colorado. Each person desiring the reduced rate must purchase a first class ticket to Detroit, Mich. Each person requesting the ticket agent will issue printed certificate of purchase. Tickets for the return journey will be sold by the ticket agent at Detroit on one third the first class fare, only to those holding certificates signed by ticket agent. The certificates are registered by the Secretary of the National Afro-American Council, certifying that not less than one hundred persons holding certificates have been in regular attendance at the meetings Accommodations at Detroit. Deacommunations at Detroit, who desire to see students to meet the meeting of the National Afro-American Council should address Dr. James W. Ames, Chairman of the Sub-Committee on Accommodations, No. 276 Beaubien Street, Detroit, Mich., who will give information as to rates and persons to their boarding places. All Should Be Represented. It is our earnest desire that every Church, College, Benevolent Society, and other Race Organization send representatives to the annual tax of $5.00, to this great National gathering. We have every reason to believe that the Detroit meeting will be the largest ever held in the history of the organization. Let all students and their delegates as soon as possible and send their names to Cyrus Field Adams, Secretary, 384 S Street, N. W. Washington, D. C. The citizens of Detroit are preparing to entertain the Council in first class style and the trip promises to be payable one. (Signed) Commissioner of Pensions and His Antecedents and a Few Other Facts. "It was in the year 1858, several years before Lincoln's proclamation that the race needed friends, that the Republican of Illinois wished to place their candidate and champion Abraham Lincoln squarely before the people on the issues that ultimately meant so much to the Afro-American people. "Successor to Senator Stephen A. Douglas was to be elected by the legislature and at the" Republican state convention held in June of that year, the abolitionists, the Republicans and other friends of Mr. Lincoln insisted upon his candidacy. Politics was at a fever heat and upon the bans on insurrection, the Republicans and other friends such sentiments as "Fathers protect us from Negro husbands," "This is a white man's government," "No Negro Equality," and other inscriptions calculated to inflame the rabble, while on the other hand the Lincoln followers, carried out the insurrection in increased equal, "No more slave territory." "No more compromise," etc. Among the brave and sturdy followers of Lincoln were such men as Owen Lovejoy, Richard Yates, Lyman Trumblum, Shelby M. Cullom, Lawrence Weldon, O. M. Browning and William Pitt Kellogg, men who helped to mold a sentiment that was destined to shape the nation's greatest upholstery this country ever experienced in the religious, social, political and industrial arenas. Among them, too, was John Warner, the father of Major Vespasian Warner, the present Commissioner of Pensions, about whom the Afro-American press of the country is just now raising a hue and cry merely because he is no Afro-American included in the recent promotions at the Pension Bureau. Born and raised amid favorable environments, educated with care and by those who taught the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man, wounded at the Battle of Bastille for the supremacy of the Union and the downfall of slavery, Commissioner Warner has a nature free from those little prejudices so often found in those training classes now being syndicated are considered by the Afro-Americans of Illinois who know and have a high regard for Major Warner, as premature and unjust. On the field of battle and in Congress; on the stump and in the courts his voice, his acts and sympathy have always been clear and well defined. He knows no man by his nativity or color and is a firm believer in the doctrine of a square deal for every one. Those of us who are familiar with his record cannot forget how he bought a house and for years paid the taxes for an indigent Afro-American family in his home town of Clinton, Missouri. He was a business partnership with Mr. John McCoy, the most prosperous Afro-American farmer in the great corn belt of central Illinois. In making the recent promotions, the Commissioner doubtless acted upon the recommendations of his numerous division chiefs who apparently did not suggest the appointment of a new commissioner. Major Warner is a fine gentleman—racial distinctions do not appeal to him. He does not care whether a man is white, black, brown or yellow and it is unfortunate that such harsh criticisms have been made. It will doubtless be discovered before long the commissioner does not play favorites. National Negro Business League, New York, July 18.—In addition to the very attractive program of the National Negro Business League, the annual session of the 16th annual session will be held at the Palm Garden, 58th street and Lexington avenue, a series of entertainments of the most satisfactory kind are being arranged for the delegates of the day's session an automobile expedition will carry visitors about the city and through Central Park, visiting all points of interest; on the afternoon of the second day a large excursion steamer will be chartered up the Hudson river; on the evening of the third and last day a banquet, being arranged to eclipse any similar affair ever given here, will be tendered the delegates of the day. The Williams and Walker Company has offered its services for the opening day's session, morning and evening, and throughout the three days if engagements do not conflict. The New Amsterdam Musical Association will rightly ban the music on the evening of the banquet. The coming session has stirred New Yorkers, and they are in readiness to extend a welcome as has never before been given the National Negro Office. The president of Dr. Booker Washington, the president of the organization, many of the most ppminent capitalists and philanthropists of New York have become interested and will not only attend, but in every other way, lend their influence to awarding the Reduced rates, of one and one-third fare from every section of the country, on the certificate plan, have been secured.

When the fight begins within himself, a man is worth something.—Browning. Land mortgaged may return, but honesty once pawned is never redeemed.—Middleton. Selfishness is the making a man's self his own center, the beginning and end of all he does.—John Owen. Give your whole attention to whatever you are doing, and think nothing unworthy of careful consideration.—Confucius. He who learns sciences, and does not practice what they preach, resembles a man who digs, but does not sow.—Arabic. Duty, faithfully performed, opens the mind to truth, both being of one family, allike immutable, universal, and everlasting.—Samuel. Smiles. He is not dead who departs from life with a high and noble fame; but he is dead, even while living, whose brow is branded with infamy.—Tieck. Do you know a man against whom you have most reason to guard yourself? Your looking-glass will give you a very fair likeness of his face.—Whateley. Impatience relieves no ill; on the contrary, it is a sharp additional pang added to all the rest. But resignation soothes and lightens all we suffer by showing the gain there is behind.—Fenelon. Wisdom, valor, justice, and learning cannot keep in countenance a man that is possessed with these excellencies, if he wants that inferior art of life and behavior called good breeding—Steele. DINKELSPIELERS. Der man dot means der mosd uses his voice der fewest. Der horseshoe vas always lucky--ven der right horse vins. Der confidential man is der invent-or uf der confidence man. A fool vaits for Opportunity, vile der vise man runs down der road und meets id. So many peoples start ub der ladder ut fame midoud looking if der ladder liable to slip. Nefer ged in front uf a mule's back to criticize him; much bedder you say id to his face. Der troubles mit many a rich man in a automobile is dot he is broken down und needs a change. Shakspeare says id dot patience vase on a monument, but Villum nefer said id dot truth vas always on a tombstone. Ven vimmen meet id is der besd dressed woman in der party dot is satisfied to led der udders do der moed talking. Some peoples lay ub a few dollars for a rainy day, bud vas villing to accept a snowstorm as a goot oxcos to spend id—George V. Hubart in New York Journal. WHAT "THEY" SAY. She who is beautiful is stronger than iron and fire.—Anacreon. All orators are dumb when beauty pleadeth.—Shakespeare. Beauty without grace is the hook without the bait.—Emerson. Life is not so short but there is always time enough for courtesy.—Emerson. Love that has but beauty to feed on is short lived and subject to fits.—Erasmus. As charity covers a multitude of sins before God, so does politeness before man.—Grace. A thing of beauty is a joy forever; Its loveliness increases; it will never Pass into nothingness.—Keats. Without the smile from partial beauty won. Say, what were man? A world without a sun. —Campbell. No mortal tongue can half the beauty tell; For none but hands divine could work so well. —Dryden. LEFT-HANDED PHILOSOPHY. Be not content to aim high—shoot. Folks who remember what to forget have found pretty nearly the secret of true popularity. Realizing one's importance comes along about the time other folks begin to doubt it. There are folks in the world who not only do not believe all they hear, but not even all they say. Have you seen the new magazine, "THE VOICE OF THE NEGRO?" See notice elsewhere in this issue. Persons desiring to visit Wagner hall, corner Charles and Western avenues for lodge meetings, parties, dances, meetings or for any occasion may obtain the same at reasonable rates upon application to J.

Buy now and we will set it up for you next month. Sixth and Minnesota Streets MINNEAPOLIS. Continued from 3d page. A pretty little house party was given Wednesday evening by Mrs. Geo. Barnett in honor of Miss Mabel Mason of Montreal, and Miss Hattie Loomis of St. Paul. After a neat program of songs had been rendered by Miss Mason, Miss Swatman and Miss Loomis, the remainder of the evening was taken up in dancing. When in St. Paul and you wish to get FIRST CLASS MBALS, like you used to get at home call on Mrs. Ella from 9:32 Cedar street. Breakfast from 7 to 11 a.m.; lunch from 12 m. to 2:30 p. m.; dinner from 5 to 8 p. m. Meals to order when desired. Sunday dinners a specialty. Regular meals 25 cents. The man who puts heart into his work will always get ahead of it. The reward of mastering one difficulty is to meet another. We find no better feelings in others than we foster in ourselves. You cannot escape your taxes here by talking about your citizenship there. It's a good deal easier to pray for the preacher than to pay for the preaching. To the hypocrite one man's religion is another man's revenue. When You Drink Tea. "The scientific justification for adding milk to tea," says the Dietetic and Hygienic Gazette, "comes from the facts that the tannic acid contained in tea combines with the albumen of the milk to form tannate of albumen, which is practically leather. By drinking tea alone the coating of the stomach is made leathery. But when milk, which contains albumen, is added the molecules of tannic acid select their affinity of albumen from it, and, as a divorce is unknown to tannate of albumen, the lining of the stomach is less liable to be affected by the tannic acid than it would be if the tea were taken alone." --- Scientists say music destroys mosquitoes. If the brass band played the "Good Old Summer Time" and the drum corps made it dizzy, of course it would kill the pesky thing. Science is so ingenious.-Kate Thyson Marr. LIFE'S SECRETS. Think only healthful thoughts. "Simplify!" "Simplify!" "Simplify!" Be cheerful. "A light heart lives long." "As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." THINKS. What a race of giants if each might reach his youthful ideal! Unsuccessful aspirations are spelled by some, P-r-e-s-u-m-p-t-l-o-n. The aroma of the cup of joy when drained by others, is not always pleasing. The fellow who knows it all seldom has sense enough to know a thing or two. The man who steps to the front will have the pack yelping at his heels. Unless he is feeble-minded, it is never safe to trade upon a man's ignorance. It is not all dollars and cents; but it takes collars and cents to get the rest of it. There may be excellent reasons' that "a prophet has not honor in his own country." He who can make the dollars materialize is applauded by the world as the greatest magician. That he is human would explain his sinking to the lowest depths or climbing to the highest heights. How the world would shine if it was human nature to remember every kindness and forget every wrong! In fact every article in the entire department at half what you can buy them for in other stores.
