"Homeless 26," an Organization that Has Spread Rapidly and Promises to Accomplish Much of Worth. "C. A. How, N Y, H O 26" was the name and address on the register at the Beats hotel, and it is believed that it was the first time it has ever been seen in this section, says the Norway, Me. Advertiser. The "H O" of the address was written with a two and six above and below respectively, the bar of the "H," with the "O" encircling the entire combination. This sign is found very often in the middle and western states, and is the trademark of the Homeless 26. Last week day twenty-six lonesome travelling man in a hotel in Pittsburgh, Pa. They had dined together and formed a society, to which they gave the above unique name. They said that twenty-six cents should be the entrance fee, and quarterly dues, good fellowship with temperance and with economy, and promotion of the drummers' comfort should be the aim. The clerk of the hotel consented to act as secretary, but soon his duties were so enlarged as to make necessary the establishment of a salaried office, the retainer of the association with more "Heart of Mine, the Twilight Depens to a Denser, Duller Gray Let Us Link Our Arms and Wander Down the Road to Yesterday." Heart of mine, the twilight depens to a denser, duller gray. Let us link our arms and wander down. And, as sweethearts, stroll together down a leafy way and long, a memory and And perhaps we'll hear some sweetness from our journey away, and we might together down the road to Yesterday. Here I pledged the fame and riches—ah we both of us were young, and we heard no note of music but Heart Blessed Blessed and I promised she a crown Fashioned by the hands of Effort from the hands of Effort Sailor Owned Entire Household for Few Weeks and Mixed Among the Natives as One of Themselves. Looking about in Hongkong for a congenial house wherein to make a few friends in the few weeks. I fell in with a most friendly Chinaman—an elderly person whose family consisted of himself, his wife, several children, two sampans and certain wooden gods of various sizes and degrees of power. I acquired the whole for $15 and was supposed to own everything, including the gods, for a period of three months, with board in the bargain. The food was good, too, well seasoned and palatable, though I did not always just what I was eating. I gained flesh and I really saw something of China. The soldier man found his chief occupation in being head of the household and smoking opium, while his wife did washing, for the vessels in Louisiana Hospitality Proved Equal to the Occasion, Though Unlooked for Demand for Space Made Strain. A group of drummers were trading yarns on the subject of hospitality, when one, a little Virginian with a humorous eye and a delightful drawl, took up his parable thus: "I was down in Louisiana, last month travel'n cross country with S. J. Carey (the same being Stonewall Jackson) at your service), when we kinder got lost in a mighty lonesome cart o' road just about dark. We rode along a right good piece after sundown, and when we saw a light ahead I tell you it looked first rate. We drove up to the light, find' 'twas a house, and when I hollered like a lost calf the man came out and we asked him to take us in for the night. He looked at us mighty hard, then said, Are Not the Aborigines of New Zealand — Ancestors Settled There Eight Hundred Years Ago. The Mooris are not the aborigines of New Zealand. This is the story of their coming, as told by a legend handed down from chief to chief, from generation to generation: Te Kupa, a priest, lived on an island called Hawali, supposed to be Hawaii. He incurred the displeasure of his chief and was compelled to flee for his life. He secured a canoe, and stocking it with provisions, paddled out to sea, leaving his home and his friends, as he thought, forever. He was mourned as dead, but about a year later he returned with a glowing story of a wonderful country he had discovered. He gave graphic accounts of its mighty forests, its burning mountains, steaming lakes and huge birds. The than 5,000 members traveling men and hotel men at whose house no liquor is sold. In fact, every applicant for membership must be recommended by a member in good standing, and should the joiner prove unworthy, the sponsor is henceforth "homeless 26" man feels in duty bound to aid his brother. If that frater is sick a physician must be called and the association pays the bill. If he is without a position, 5,000 of the family are looking for a job for him, and at his death $2,500 are given to his relatives. One member has died since the association was formed, his death occurring in an explosion of an oil tank, which wrecked a train near Pittsburgh a few months ago. Then an assessment of twenty-six couples cost $1,300. Another direction which the society has turned is the erection of a hotel, and they are carefully considering the erection of a $50,000 building, where the man without a place to call home can go and be cared for until work is found. One of the social features is that whenever any of the members are together they have a little dinner. The further development of this young but virile association and no insignificant element of considerable power. But, alas! I bring the nothing from the years but temples gray And a dream that lies all broken on the road to yesterday. And I plucked a radiant flower on the Twain blossom fair and fragrant from the spreading bush of Truth. At my life I savor to keep it and cherish Was its leaf and stem and odor and its beauty was so fair; "Wal, I reckon I kin stand it if you kin." So we unbmitted, went in, and found 'twas only a two-room shanty and just swarmin' with children.

"They gave us supper, good hog and hominy, the best they had, and then the old woman put the two youngest kids to bed. They went straight to sleep. Then she took those out, laid them over in the corner, put the next two to bed—and so on. After all the women were asleep on the floor the old folks went in the other room and told us we could go to bed if we wanted to, and, bein' powerful tired out, we did. "Well, sir, the next morning when we woke up we were lying over in the corner with the kids, and the old woman the old woman had the bed." —Imincott's Magazine story caused the wildest excitement among his people, who hailed Te Kupea as a god, and preparations were at once made to explore this magic country. Seven large canoes were built and stocked with provisions and water and a party of islanders, directed by Te Kupea, set forth on their adventurous journey. In time they reached the place he had described and Te Kupea's canoe, the Aotea, was the first to touch the shore. Hence the Maori name "Aotearoa" was given to New Zealand. Just when this took place is one of the pots in the history of these people that is lost in the shadowy memories of the past, but it is supposed to have been about eight hundred years ago. The Maoris of to-day always refer to Hawaii as the fatherland, and there is a native proverb, "I kune mal! Hawaki te kune kai te tangata." "The seed of our coming is from Hawaii!" THE APPEAL. HOW SHIPS SIGNAL. EACH OTHER AT SEA declared?" The "Stop" signal indicates the end of the sentence.—Mon treal Herald. DECEIT WAS NOT ALL DECEIT A B C D E F C H I J K L M N O Q R S T U V W X Y Z Code Flag The language of a ship is a language of signs. But notwithstanding this circumstance, all possible questions may be asked and answered, and every item of information given in the fullest degree by its medium, even through the conversing crafts be miles asunder. The alphabet of this silent tongue is usually flags of various shapes and colors. But should the distance between the two ships be the ship's signalling station, be too great for colors to be distinguished, or should the wind be blowing between the two so that the flags are end on, one of two other methods must be adopted. The first is to represent each letter by combinations of three shapes—a cone, a ball and a drum. The second is to make up of a semaphore having three arms, the positions of which with regard to one side or the other of the post, and whether they are horizontal, upturned or downturned, indicate the letter desired. The second is to speak to each other are frequently of nationalities, it is necessary that the signal should be international or common to all; and this is so. And another desirable thing is also provided. It may occur to you that if a message, even one of brief length, were to be spelt out letter by letter, the operation would be exceedingly tiresome, and consume time that perhaps could be ill afforded. To remove these objections, a code has been made out dealing with all matters marine, by means of which a host of flags (from two to four in number) indicate whole sentences. For example, in the flag Q, D, E, Z, Y, Z ask the question: How does the land lie?" F, O, "Are you in danger?" And so on. In the illustration of the flags here given of this international code of signals, the various colors are indicated thus; Yellow by dots, red by vertical and blue by horizontal lines. You will therefore have no difficulty in picturing the true appearance of each. It is only since Jan. 1, 1902, that the code as here illustrated has been in exclusive use. The former code possessed of flags to repress the noise Q, Z, Y, Z have been added, and an alteration has been made in the design and colors of a couple of the other flags, F and L. You will notice that one of the flags—a pennant, or flag running to a point, having two white vertical stripes on a red ground—is termed the code signal and answering pennant. When in use as the first, it indicates that the international code is being employed. When used as the second—as the answering flag—its significance is equivalent to "I notice you are willing to comply with the rules." When ship desires to speak to another, she opens the ball to bolstering her ensign with the code flag beneath it. The ship spoken to immediately responds to the signal by hoisting the answering pennant at the "dip"—that is, two-thirds of the way up to, say, the masthead or peak. The first then makes the desired signal, which may consist of two, A B C J K L S U three or four flags; but never more than four. Should the second ship comprehend the signal, she makes known the fact by holding the answering pennant "close up" in which position it is retained till the signaling craft has hauled down her flags. It is then lowered to the "dip" again in readiness for the continuation of the message. Should the signal be not distinguishable, or appear not to be applicable to the situation, the ship spoken to must intimate the fact by hoisting the proper flags for the purpose, keeping the answering pennant at the "dip" until the signal is thoroughly comprehended, when it is hoisted "close up." Two-flag signals, from A B to Y Z as urgent and of importance and take ten pages of the code book. Want a pilot, P. T; "Machinery out of order," R J, are examples of the nature of these hoists. Three-flag signals occupy the greater part of the code book. The bear- Defective Page ings of the co-pass run from A B C to A S T. Then there are the names of the various coins of all countries, for example, A U Y—a rupee, followed by the weights and measures, B C X—0.9, and auxiliary phrases—i. e., containing the auxiliary words, such as B H W, "They must not be." The general vocabulary is indicated by the flags C X A to Z N P. "Pilot has been sent to you," T J I, and "Must take in more ballets, F T S, must be given as illustrations. The degrees of latitude and longitude, divisions of time, height of the barometer and thermometer, are signaled by a hoist comprising two flags under the code pennant; while figures from cipher to five millions are denoted by two flags over the code pennant. Geographical signals are shown by four-flag hoists, such as: A U Y T—Callaq; A E H V—London. The code flag over one flag has various significance. For example, when it is over L, the hoist denotes that cholera, plague, or yellow fever is on board. Over I, "Have not a child of health." Over E indicates that the flags which follow do not allude to the code, but must be FTS—Must take in more ballast. taken as representing the letters of the alphabet each stands for. This is the alphabetical signal, and is employed when a name or address is to be spelled out letter by letter. The code flag over F and over G indicate, in one case the end of a word or dot between initials, and in the other that the alphabetical signals are terminated. Numeral signal — e. that the figure taken as representing the figures assigned to each of them in a table found in the book is made known by hoisting the code pennant over M. Over N indicates the decimal point, and over O the end of the numeral signal. If the name or number contain more than four letters or four figures, it must be given in more than one hoist; for four is the maximum number of flags of which a hoist must contain. If the number of flags is not applicable or contained more than once in any name or number, such letter or figure “must, on its second occurrence, begin or be in a second hoist, and on its third occurrence, it must begin or be in a third hoist.” The distance of the distant and semaphore signals is almost self-explanatory. It is not noticed that each letter of the alphabet is indicated, in the distance, by a hoist of three shapes—a International Code of Signals. cone, a ball and a drum; and, in the semaphore, by the inclination and position (with reference to the post) of three arms. The cone with the point upward is termed number 1, and corresponds with the semaphore arm pointing upward. The ball is number 2, and is equivalent to the horizontal arm of the other. The down-pointing cone corresponds with the down-pointing arm of the semaphore, and is number 3. All these positions of the arm are on the side of the post opposite to the indicator. Number 4 is represented by a drum or by a horizontal arm on the same side as the indicator. Owing to the fact that these distant and semaphore signals take more time than the flag system, requiring always two or more hoists, thirty-seven special signal signals needing one hoist only have been provided in the code book; such as: "22. Short of Provisions. Starving". "24. Want water immediately." "312. Is war DECEIT WAS NOT ALL DECEIT. Hiding Parson Really Had Attack of "Scarlet Fever". In the days when Dr. Phillipotts was Bishop of Exeter there was a certain hunting parson in his diocese by name Radcliffe. The Bishop came one day to pay him an unexpected visit. Parson Radcliffe, in scarlet, was just about to mount his horse and gallop to the meet when he heard that the Bishop was in the village. He had barely time to send away his hunter, run upatars, and jump, red coat, boots, and all, into bed when the Bishop's carriage drew up at the door. His lordship I'm in bed and can't see him," said the hunter to his housekeeper on hearing the wheels. "Is Mr. Radcliffe in?" asked Dr. Phillipotts, a moment later. "Very sorry, my lord; Mr. Radcliffe is confined to bed." "Dear me, I'm so sorry," said the kindly old episcopal visitor; "I'll go up and see him, if I may." The housekeeper ran upstairs in great dismay and rushed into her master's room. "The Bishop says that he is coming up to see you; what you do," Oh, that's all right," said Parson Radcliffe; "tell his lordship I'm cruel bad with an attack of 'scarlet fever'—it's very zeggravated and extremely catching!"—London Answers. Time to Go. Some time ago there lived a gentleman of indolec habits who spent his time visiting among his friends. After wearing out his welcome in his own neighborhood, he thought he, would visit an old Quaker friend some twenty miles distant. On his arrival he was cordially received by the Quaker, who, thinking the visitor to him much pained with a great deal of attention and politeness for several days. As the visitor showed no signs of leaving, the Quaker became uneasy, but bore it with patience until the eighth day, when he said to him: "My friend, I am afraid the tree will never come again." "Oh, yes I shall," said the visitor, "I have enjoyed my visit very much, and shall certainly come again." "But," said the Quaker, "if the tree will never leave how can the tree come again?" Reasoning Power of animals. Most apparently conceive ideas from a "clear sky," but such concious could not manifest itself were not the mind already highly cultivated by much conscious effort—reasoning—and experience. On the other hand, animals and smallchildren become conscious of much knowledge by merely witnessing the intelligent movements of others, and in time, without thought or effort an their part, they suddenly discover that they also are competent to do the same thing, or, in other words, to be more general impression among psychologists that animals probably do not reason; they have no ideas as we have.—A. F. Shore in the Scien- tific American. Moreover, the Dog. Commissioner Richard B. Aldcroftt of the Board of Education tells the fol- lowing: An old colored man in Hudson had a dog which he called "Mbreover." "Where did you get that name" inqui- red Mr. Aldcroftt.

Found Source of the Mighty Zambesi Found Source of the Mighty Zambesi The Warring Peoples in the Caucasus --- Ways of Stags in Scottish Highlands Mistake Made by Many Business Men African River Traced Back to Spring from Which Wells Few Drops of Water that Grow to Giantic Stream. Major A. St. H. Gibbons followed the mighty Zambesi river from its mouth to its very source and found the spring from which welled the first few drops of water. He writes: "As we progressed the undulations became steeper and higher, the surface being covered for the most part with small deciduous trees fifteen feet to twenty feet high. Here and there the slopes are covered with high bracken. Seven or eight miles brought us to a small pool, which the guides asserted to be the 'beginning of the Yambeshi.' To make certain that this was the true source, I traced the stream back along the eastern 900 yards entered another stream 500 yards farther down. It came obvious that the Malunda were fraudulently attempting to shorten the journey, as this stream is quite subsidiary to the one it enters. Then, following the course of the latter for rather more than a couple of miles and crossing three or four small tributary streams on the way. I at length found myself standing over the first drop of water which we to make up the mighty river of which I had seen so much." Continuing, Major Gibbons says: "The river has its origin in a deep Tartars of European Russia Are of Diverse Origin—Armenians a Businesslike and Peaceful People of the East. A word about some of these warring elements, Tartars and Armenians, in the Caucasus region: In the first place the former are not "Tartars" at all, but "Tatars." The word is practically the same in Persian and Chinese and probably means a nomad or an archer. The letter "r" has crept into the spelling doubtless through an ignorant confusion of "Tatar" with "Tartarus," which means hell, because the Tatars were supposed to be such ferocious people. According to the encyclopedia "the term Tatar is loosely applied to certain Tungusic tribes originally inhabiting Manchuria and Mongolia." The Manchus, the reigning race in China, are Tartars. In the course of the westward movement of the Mongols the term Tartar obtained vogue among the civilized peoples of western Asia and eastern Europe and came to be applied with little discrimination to the horde of Mongolians from the time upon the frontiers of occidental civilization and to the civilized peoples subdued by them. Ultimately it come to be used almost if not quite as a synonym for Turkish. The Tartars of European Russia are of diverse origins. Most of the peoples "Soiling Pools" "Well Known to the Monarchs of the Glens" "Fight to the Death Among Themselves. "There are certain spots known to and recognized by the deer in most forests called 'soiling pools.'" says an English writer. "They are usually peaty pools to which the stags resort, often at night, to wallow and have a good time generally. I have here occasionally seen them rolling on their backs, though more often black bubbles bursting sluggishly on the surface of the water have told me that have come just in time to see wading a distant hillside one day last September when some bright object flashing in the sun caught my eye, and looking through the glass I saw it was a stag. He was standing shaking himself by the edge of one of these pools, the water flying off him in all directions. It was the sun flashing on which this had attracted my attention. The pools are must use in the garden, and we were approximately on Sept. 20, known in Gaelfa as 'the day of the roaring,' though, of course, the exact date varies very much according to the season. I have heard stags roar no early an Sept. 10, though this is rather unusual. It is more of a below than a roar, and is quite ain-inspiring at close quarters, more es- Imagine Themselves of Much More Importance Than They Really Are—Time Wasted in Constant Rush. Annie Payson Call, writing in the American Illustrated Magazine, under the caption "Every Day Living," points out very clearly how a great many people, business men especially, work themselves into the idea that they are fearfully busy and rushed, when as a matter of fact they would accomplish a lot more if they took things leisurely. She says: The average business man in this country seems always to have an atmosphere of "rush" about him; even when he is sitting down you feel that he wants, to take out a book or a watch, that does not actually do so; many men have appeared to lost the art of taking a position. I remember an anecdote of a prominent man whose family, begged him to go off for a rest because of his extreme fatigue, who asserted over and over the impossibility of leaving his business, especially at $2.40 PER YEAR. depression at the base of steep, wooded undulations rising very abruptly for the first thirty feet, and then with decreasing steepness for another twenty. The water oozes from black, spongy bog, and quickly collects into a definite stream of clear, cool water. Tall trees, thickly interwoven with an entanglement of vinelike creepers and undergrowth, spring from this basin and inclose the bed for the first few hundred yards of its course. Such is the character of the Zambesi source and such is the character of the sources of nearby all. It not all the sources having their origin in the district, though the basin from which the main stream of the Zambesi springs is steeper, narrower and deeper than any other of the many I visited. "As I lay that night beneath the bivouac of branches the boys had put together for me it was perhaps natural that my mind should linger on the many and varied scenes I had witnessed between the boggy springs below me and the mighty river with its four-mile wide bed up which we steamed fifteen months before. The expedition was then a large one; 500 porters barely suffered to move our equipment overland. I was now worming my way over what was probably the most remote region of the continent and in very reduced circumstances—four boys and five donkeys." styled Tartars are of Turkish stock, but very mixed physically. In their own tongue the Armenians call themselves "Hask" and, according to their language, they are entitled to rank as a very old branch of the Aryan stock, in some respects intermediate between the Aryans of Europe and the Aryan peoples of Greater Asia. Physically they are of a primitive type, short and thickest, dark-skinned and of "exaggerated brachycephalism" or short-headedness. They inhabited in early prehistoric times in the Aryan Minor and have contributed to or borrowed from Aryans of other types, Semites, Caucasian peoples and Turks. They are industrious and intelligent and good business men. In many cities of the east they are the principal merchants and money lenders. Most of them belong to the Armenian church. Armenia at present is merely a historical conception. The ancient land is divided among the Turks, the Russians and the Persians and the Armenian people have been scattered over Asia Minor and much of Europe. The revolutionary movement, inspired by the Russian ailist propaganda, has attained to formidable dimensions since 1855. The news of the Russians stirred Europe and America in the years 1855 and 1856. Thousands of Armenians were massacred in Constantinople in August, 1996. pecifically if the rearer is himself hidden. "The end of the season is always the most exciting time for stalkers. Stags then are all on the move, and great fights take place. I have never had the luck to witness a real big pitched battle between two champions, whether they often fight to the death, but the number of stags with broken and damaged horns which are met with after the autumn season is over show that pretty severe contests do occur. Stags always maneuver, when fighting, to get their opponent down hill. They have tremendous power in their hind quarters, and in this position can use it to the best advantage. Deer do not fight only with their horns, as each of their legs and stroke savagely with the fore foe, the sharp edges of the latter making a very nasty wound. "A rather curious fact with regard to the fights between red deer, illustrating the toughness and elasticity of their skins, was told to me by a Dorsetshire agent. There was a big park full of red deer on the estate, and a large number of stags had been killed owing to tights. On skimming the dead ones he took the lungs and flesh were pierced through and though, the skins themselves were comparatively uninformed." that time of year, because there was one customer in the habit of buying very largely whom he felt that no one else in the office could possibly satisfy. Finally this man became so ill that he was obliged to be absent from his office. Shortly after his recovery he met his old customer in the street and went up to him with diffuse apologies for not having been ready to attend to his purchase. The customer, having finished his business some days before to his entire satisfaction, looked a little surprised and said: "Oh! Weren't you there, Mr. Smith? I did not know it. I am sorry you have been ill." The strain of self-importance is greater than we know. Indeed it is often self-importance, and only that, which is the true cause of nervous prostration.

SATURDAY OCTOBER 7, 1905 SAY, REV. THOMAS DIXON JR. You are biting off more than you chew, when you undertake to manage 10,000,000 Afro-Americans, many of whom have more sense than you and surpass you in education and refine- ment. The Kaiser told by the Marquise de Fontenov, which is as follows: Emperor William, when at Tangier last spring, was so much struck by the stature of a Moor of all altogether colossal proportions that he engaged him in a fight for the right of foot guards at Potsdam. The man was brought to Berlin and was assigned to the band. On state occasions it was his duty to bear the so-called "schellenbaum." which constitutes a feature of certain of the more ancient German regiments, consisting of a species of Moslem standard, surmounted by numerous silver branches of which small horse tails and silver bales are suspended. At ordinary times he was intrusted with the cymbals. He has evidently found it impossible to accustom himself to Prussian ideas of military discipline. For the other reason he was forced to smash him about the head with his cymbals. Had he been a German subject he would have been brought before a court-martial and either condemned to death or else sentenced to almost lifelong penal sertificate. But in view of his being a Moor the kaiser decided that he should be merely condemned to his native land. Now if some irate Afro-American should take a notion to smash you over the head with a pair of cymbals, it will be merely plain assault and battery, with extenating circumstances in great abundance. SOME "SOCIAL EQUALITY." A most flagrant example of social equality was recently shown in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, which we relate for the delectation of our Southern brethren. The Liberian journal from which we quote makes the following statement: "I will be present Thursday, in response to invitations from His Excellency Ernest Lyon, American Minister Resident and Consul General, near this Court and Mrs. Lyon, the following distinguished persons were present at the Legation. The occasion was a Diplomatic Function in honor of His Excellency Lyon, the Minister of Defense, D. recently accredited Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the French republic by the President of Liberia." "Above the President of Liberia and the Guest of Honor was the Liberian flag, hanging loosely in graceful folds. In front of the American Minister was the American flag, and under its folds was the size picture of President Roosevelt." Among the guests were Emanuel Baret, vice consul of France and Hon. Wilmot E. D. Jennings, Belgian consul. In order that our readers may fully grasp the significance of the event we make, the guests are a very black man, but is one of the finest Arabic scholars in the world. The distinguished guests present many of whom were Caucasians mingled and commingled without the least idea that they were Arabic. But what a howl such an event would have brought forth in our own South. the following in a recent report has been a practice among the violators around the country. Nashville to put some negro forward to make his deliveries. These negroes have been brought before our body and made to disclose their principals, and, under the circumstances, we have furnished full information along the line sought, and we have made it possible for the petit jury to mote out adequate and just punishment to these same principals. We cannot too seve- rely criticise or demonize a chase of the petit jury will disillusion and put forward an ignorant, irresponsible nego to receive the punishment merited by their own acts. We admire the justness and kindliness of the foregoing, but it does sert themselves to the punishment it implies that they do not use ordinary business sagacity. We are of the opinion that the agents are employed not because they are ignorant, but because they are intelligent and shrewd, and that customers rather than employees. The New York Sun recently exited theire of a good Ohio minister by theincidental mention of the burning ofan Afro-American at the stake bya mob of two thousand Texas Christians,anant minister the Sun submitted thisadmirable rejoinder: "In this country,alone in civilization, the customof burning at the stake has beenrevived of recent years. We do nothear of it in Japan or in any partof distinction. It is reserved as a distinction of this nominally Christiancountry. It is asserted that the scarcityof skilled labor at Fall River, Mass.,cotton mills is greater than at any previoustime in twenty years. Operativeshave gone to Canada to work on farms,to the South, and even to England,where we have included thewhite stiffness and unreliability ofthe white laborer, added to the manywhich have gone before. The transportation agents should take thematter in hand. Their literature preparedfor the Southern case can by thesubstance of a few words, be similarlyadapted for application in Massachusetts. The fact that certain insurance companies made contributions to the Republican campaign fund has started one Mr. Parker into hideous life and he makes a note on it. But every opportunity knows that in this matter, one party does just what the other does viz. it口袋 all the money it can get, tainted or untainted. We note that Jimerow Tillman has been elected president of the University of Arkansas, we presume as a reward for his valuable services in originating the Cimwra crows of that state. We congratulate the state on having a Tillman, thus enabling her to butt in along side of South Carolina. Indianapolis has a church base ball club. The practice of having such activities for the carrying on of Christian work is sanctioned by all the churches, but—Is a bass ball club a legitimate promoter of growth in grace? We hope that Dixon will not break loose again until we get rid of the stegomyia fasciata. WASHINGTON Joseph W. Fifer, former governor of Illinois, has announced that he will resign as a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission January 16, 2015, after plotted six years of service. There will still be four years of his term unexpired. Probably the Rise Bank, of Washington, has as odd a check for a souvenir as any in the country. It was given by President Lincoln and directs the bank to pay to the order of "a negro, one-legged—Five dollars," and is signed "A. Lincoln." The indorsement is merely an "X." A new religious sect, called the Trustees of God, has been giving some disgusting exhibitions in Washington. Their favorite song is "The half ain't never been told" to the letter.

A Collection of Events Occurring Among Afro-Americans of the Capital of this Great and Glorious Nation for our Many Readers. Special Correspondence THE APPEAL. Washington, Oct 5. President Roosevelt returned to Washington Saturday, the picture of physical health and strength. The President occupies a warmer place in the hearts of the predecessors. No less than 50,000 people assembled on Pennsylvania avenue between the depot and the White house and give the chief executive a decorous and enthusiastic welcome. Prof. W. E. B. Dubois delivered an address at the Presbyterian church Sunday afternoon on "The Story of a Young Man," to a large and enthusiastic audience. The police census of Washington is now complete. The revised figures give the population as 323,122,227,428 white and 95,685 Colored. Mr. W. L. Houston, Grand Director of the G. U. A. O. F. has returned from a tour of Maryland and Virginia in the interest of Border. Dr. Lemuel W. Livingstone, who was appointed United States consul to Cape Haitien, Haiti, in President McKinley's first term, has returned to the United States for a short vacation, part of which he will spend in this city. He is accompanied by his wife, whom he him in a trip to his home in Florida. Dr. Livingston was of great service to the American fleet in the war between this country and Spain, and showed marked ability in looking after American interests when civil sife in the island seriously threatened them. Daniel M. Jackson of Chicago has been appointed U. S. Consular agent at Gunamato, Mexico, at the request of Senator Culom. Mr. Jackson is a well known undertaker. Miss Cora J. Hawkins, one of Chicago's most accomplished young ladies has been appointed to a place in the Department of Agriculture, all through the influence of Senator Culotta who having passed the requisite examination. While a few Afro-Americans are avid Washington, because of his views on the necessity of manual training for the race, in many communities in the manual training idea is growing and the Washington idea is being completed. New York's first manual training High School was officially set under way Saturday afternoon by the laying of the cornerstone of the new Stuyvesant High School in Fifteenth Street. The completed school will be the finest of its kind in the United States. The entire expense of the President's Southern trip, amounting to between $5,000 and $6,000, will be paid by the President out of his own income, and he will be required to defray the expenses of the entire journey at the regular tariff rates and will accept no reduction from those rates. Acting Postmaster General Hitchcock has just issued a circular renewing the campaign inaugurated recently by the government which debarms from the mails every postal card bearing a picture or language that is obscene, indecent, or improperly suggestive. George W. Ellis, Esq. secretary of the United States legation at Monrovia, Liberia, is in the city on leave of abseance. The Department of Agriculture has imported from Malta sixty milking goats which will be fed, milked and propagated under scientific conditions. 21. 14. 19. --- ```markdown ``` HOLD VAST UNCLAIMED WEALTH Sums Held by English Banks Run Into the Millions. How many millions of pounds worth of property unclaimed to-day in the form of shares, dividends, deposits of money, plate and jewels in the hands of bankers, companies, solicitors, attorneys and others? This is the fascinating question raised yesterday by the writers of a letter, who urge the Chancellor of the Exchequer to lay hands upon the spoil and devote it to the increase of national revenues. Unclaimed wealth in the hands of the crown and funds in chancery amount to more than £50,000,000. Is it possible that the funds in private sum to an equally large sum? Some of the examples of hidden wealth given by the writers of the letter suggest that the amount must at any rate be a large one. It is not, apparently, the custom of companies to search very far for the owners of unclaimed dividends. Occasionally unclaimed payments may be unclaimed amounts. In the case of a building society the chairman announced at the annual meeting that certain unclaimed money had been utilized to form a reserve fund. "In fifty-five years," explained the secretary of this society yesterday, "we have accumulated £5,000 of unclaimed deposits. At any time we are liable to be asked to refund this amount with interest." —London Daily Mail PARIS A WELL LIGHTED CITY. Strange Contrast With Conditions in Most American Cities Paris offers a strange contrast to London (and to most American cities) in the matter of street lighting. London is woody somber at night, except at certain points where concert halls and "gin mills" are numerous, whereas Paris is brilliantly lighted everywhere. Nothing so astonishes the American visitor as the long lines of brilliant gas lamps (incandescent burners, all of which function perfectly) reaching down each and every street to sparkling perspectives of diamond strings. Do you feel disposed to shrug your shoulders and cry out that it is garish and unrestful? Please don't. It is a grand success and a joy forever. If you doubt it, come over here and see for yourself. I have carefully observed the placements of the street lights, places there is one every twenty feet; in less favored localities, one every forty or fifty feet, while the little streets have them at intervals of about 200 feet. In the case of the poor little streets the lighting is, at the worst, admirable not to say magnificent. What does all this cost? It costs too much, from our enlightened (or unlighted) point of view. We are content to grope about in the dark streets. The Parisian abbshadows darkness (as he should) and is willing to pay for light, even though he may pay pretty dearly for Length of Wall Paper Rolls. "Most persons have an idea that all pieces of wall paper are necessarily of one length," remarked a wallpaper man. Sometimes when I receive orders from a distance I wonder just what the patron is figuring on. He may get enough to paper two rooms and he may get only half enough—some figure over economically and some over generously. "Our domestic homes run eight yards to the piece. Those from France and Germany measure nine yards, while the English make their rolls so lengthy that they contain quite twelve yards. Then, of course, there's the repeat. On some of the new papers the smallest figures this is next to nothing, and on some of them that long tailed bird pattern, if a bit over the figure is required for each length it means a loss of five feet on every strip put on the wall:"—Philadelphia Record.

This story is told by a resident of Maryland, who vouches for its genuineness. During the last session of Congress two young ladies endeavored to gain access to the Senate gallery. The gory old doorkeeper told them that every seat was filled and the only chance was to get some Senator knew and get a card which would admit them to the private gallery. "But we don't know a single Senator," answered one of the young ladies. "Then that is to your credit, young ladies. Walk right in. It is not often we see such ladies around the Capitol." Something to Be Gained. "Moses," he said to the old colored man around the warehouse, "I hear that you have a son in Chicago." "Yes, sah, my son Peter has done gone to college, sah," was the proud reply. "Going to make a great man of him ob." "I dunno how great Peter will done turn out, sah, but I reckon if he stays in dat college long 'nuff he'll come home and be able to tell a pullet from a rooster in de darkest night and not make so many mistakes."—Chicago DOCTOR IN TROUBLE OPERATION BY CHINESE PHYSICIAN NOT A SUCCESS. Eagerness to Rival His European Conferences Almost Brought Grave Disaster—Authorities Thought Him Unfit for Liberty. A report received from Dr. Ernest G. Vanderburg, a medical missionary at Slangton, Hunan, China, affords an interesting comparison of Chinese and American surgical methods. Dr. Vanderburg has charge of two dispensaries and a hospital maintained by the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions at the Chinese city named. The dispensaries are in different parts of the city, and as the doctor was waiting to go to the other he was calling to come quickly and help a Chinese doctor. "This Chinese doctor," writes Dr. Vanderbilt, "had heard of the operations performed in the Presbyterian hospital and he thought that he must do some operations to make his name great, and not let the foreign devil doctor get all his patients away from him. So when a big strapping fellow of about 21 years came along and wanted him to remove a tumor from his knee the doctor looked it over, sharpened his knife and cut well in the supposed tumor. Then he saw that he couldn't stop the blood, got scared and sent for me. As it happened I was near by. When I came near enough to see the patient he was sitting on a bench, held up by some friends and two Chinese doctors were using raw silk and powder trying to stop the blood. sign devil ang fellow long and mirror from it over, well into the poor countr's among, and near by. to see the a bench, and two raw silk Knoxville College, School Course, together will cover all expenses and matron for little Monday in September, Tenn. "I told them to put the man in a chair and carry him to the hospital, at the same time sending for Mr. Locke to give the chloroform. We operated, sewed him up and soon saw him safe in bed and doing well. "In the meantime word came that the poor Chinese doctor had been put in prison. We all thought that that was hard, and I sent over my card and asked that he be released, now that that man operated upon was out of danger. The official sent back word that a man like that should not be at large, but that he would send him out of prison with a soldier to watch him. So he was watched for two or three days. He now tell me that if the man had died the Chinese doctor might have been severely punished or even killed for it." A Criticism During the recent American tour of Emile Mors, the automobile expert of France, there was a parade in New York. M. Mors, at the time of the parade's passage, was on Fifth avenue. Seeing the great throngs of people, and hearing the loud, gay music, he decided that he would like to have a look at the procession, and accordingly he plunged into the deep crowd and tried to work his way to a place of vantage. The nearer the the place of the police the more he found of the police. The police, indeed, were in great evidence, pushing here, shoving there, not uttering loud threats, now making amid intense excitement, an arrest. "Keep back! Keep back! Keep back!" was the continuous cry. M. Mors could hardly see the parade for the police, and on account of the excitement that they caused he could not keep his mind on it at all. Turning somewhat impatiently to a man who said, "Why, sure, is the crowd being kept back so vary forcibly?" "So as to give the police full chance to see the procession," the man answered.—New Orleans States. Mr. W. H. Gratton asks me to point out to you that the tune of "Yankee Doodle" is an old Irish jig of the early eighteenth century, well known in Ireland still as "All the Way to Galway?" Your statement that it was played by Dr. Schuckburgh is a slip. You probably meant that he wrote the doggerel words, which is generally admitted, but he merely adapted his verses to the tune of "Yankee Doodle" in 1782, and was subsequently introduced by Arnold into his "Two to One."-London Truth. Organist in Church Forty-One Years. For forty-one years Christian Smith has been organist and choir leader at Zion's Union church, in West Penn township, Pa. During the greater portion of that long period his wife, who, when he married her forty-six years ago, possessed a rich soprano voice, has been a member of the choir, and it is years an impressive sight to the generous couple stand by the open space of a departed member of the congregation and sing a good old German hymn. Mr. Smith has led the singing of 1,500 funerals, the services at which were all in the German language. BALTIMORE CHICAGO ST.

Hustling Agent Wanted "DEITIES" OF NAVAJO INDIANS. Tribe Still Clings Fast to the Ancient Superstition. The hideous pictures of Indian delites that are commonly circulated give one little reason to suspect that they are, after all, only ordinary human beings. Probably the most awe-inspiring of Indian "delites" are those of the Navajo people. The delites are, really medicine men and they never perform before the people except when masked. Their powers are supposed to be almost unlimited and a patient they have treated has before him a long life and good health. Their bodies are invariably tattooed in the most grotesque fashion and over their heads are placed hideous masks made of fiber and skins. When a patient is to be treated they dance about him and sing uncanny songs, all the while sprinkling him with sacred lotions or healing him with magic wands. The whole tribe gathers at such a ceremony and for days feast and drink at the sick man's expense. When the many ceremonies are over the masked "delites" disappear, unmask in secret, and later appear among the other tribesmen. Though the old-time superstitions of the Indians are fast dying out, a few of the more complete nations still cling to the old traditions and methods of treating the sick. THE INSTINCT OF MIGRATION. Shown in Fall Flight of the Bobolink Toward the Southland. The instinct of migration is one of the most wonderful in the world, says C. William Beebe, in Recreation. A young bowhite and a bobolink are hatched in the same New England field. The former grows up and during the fall and winter forms one of the covey which is content to wander a mile or two, here and there, in search of good feeding grounds. Hardly has the bobolink donned his first full dress before an irresistible impulse seizes him. One night he rises up and up, ever higher, on fluttering wings, sea his course southward, gives you a glimpse of him athwart the moon, and keeps on seas, over tropical islands, far into South America, never content until he has put the great Amazon between him and his far-distant birthplace. Ashanti Brides in Gala Attire. A wedding in Asharbi is among the more educated natives, quite a momentous event. Long before the auspicious day arrives, the all-important question of dress ariks and is discussed. Very often the dresses of the bride and bridesmaids are ordered from England. The bride considers orange blossoms to be an absolute necessity, and when the day arrives she stands before the altar in white satin or silk dress which is generally decorated with silver leaves and orange blossoms, a tulle veil, and she carries a bouquet of flowers in her hands. The bridesmaids have on new frocks. All wear white kid gloves and new boots, and the men are resplendent in frock coats and white tall hats. "Bulls" Not Exclusively Irish. Maria Edgeworth, in an interesting essay on "Irish Bulls" says the difficulty of selecting one that shall be entitled to the prize from the united merits of pre-eminent absurdity and indisputable originality is greater than hasty judges imagine. That these reputed bulls are not all born and bred in Ireland can be readily believed when we read that it was a Frenchman who, in making a classified list of books, placed this same essay by Miss Edgeworth under the head of "Natural History." It was a Scotchman who, having purchased a copy of it, called the author a "pur silly body, to write aook on Bulls and no ane word o' horned cattle in it."—The Sunday Magazine.

Priceless Gem Once in the Possession of the French. In the summer of 1798 Alexandra fell into Napoleon's hands, and he set to work to make the coast secure. One August day, in 1799, it chanced that one of his engineer officers, Andre Boussard, was directing the digging operations for a new fort between the town of Rosetta and the sea, when the picks of the sappers struck a black slab of basalt, 45 inches long, which was observed to be covered with three different styles of writing, of which the last was obviously Greek. When this stone was carried up the Nile to Cairo, and shown to Napoleon and his savants, the value of it was recognized at a glance. While it lay in readiness to be conveyed to Paris, a British force made its way to Egypt, laid siege to Alexandria, and captured the city in 1801. In the treaty of capitulation the victors insisted upon the delivery of all the monuments collected, and among them the slab, which was known as the Rosetta stone. This had been chosen by the vanquished Gen. Menon as his own, and was carefully wrapped in cloth and matting at his house in Alexandria. Hither one day Turner was sent by his chief with a detachment of men, who carted it away, amid the jeers of the French officers, and put it aboard a frigate, whereon the colonel conveyed it with care to the Thames. Thus, one March day in 1808 the relic conveyed London—it is to-day one of the priceless gems of the British museum. Temperature for Baths. A very hot bath is a strong stimulant, and should never be used by a persons in vigorous health. Ninety degrees is the limit of the warm bath. It is the highest temperature safe to use, and is almost as high as anyone would be likely to take it. But physicians often prescribe a higher temperature for certain ailments. A salt bath taken at night at a temperature of eighty degrees will often induce a pleasant sleep when nothing else will. It has a peculiarly soothing effect on the nerves, and will send restless babies tired with teething into a wholesome sleep. The best salt for this purpose is cheap rock salt. A Land of Lying Rumor "Nothing can be believed in this land unless it is in black and white, and but little even then; the most circumstantial details are often mere fragments of the brain. The one-half one hears may safely be called false, and the other half doubtful or not proven. So wrote Dr. Livingstone of Africa more than thirty years ago, after a lifetime's experience of the continent, and it would not appear that its character for truthfulness has yet undergone any great change for the better. Good Scarecrows Wasted A gentleman who had been at great expense to adorn his garden with statuary was much chagrined recently to hear an old man from the country say to his wife as they gazed upon the statues: "Jes see what a waste, Belinda! Here's to less than six scarecrows in this ten-foot patch, and any one of 'em would keep the crows from a five-acre field."—London Tit Bits. Births. Just as we go to press we hear that Mrs. Joshua Hildebrand gave birth to a 10-baby girl. Being very busy at the last minute we were unable to verify this report, but if it is not true there will be no harm done, because Mrs. Hildebrand is already the mother of nine children and one more or less won't make much difference. We also failed to learn whether the new arrival, if any, is a boy or a girl, but we presume it is a girl, as most of the others are.
