Puzzle for Scientists to Worry Over Still Read the Newspapers from Home Changed Opinion He Formed in Haste VOL. 21. NO. 43. Ghosts and Hallucinations Easyly Made to Order While You Wait —More Matter of Drugs and Hard Blows. "Ghosts, hallucinations—pah!" said the psychologist. "I can make ghosts. You can make them. It is a more matter of drugs and knocks on the head. "What is it that does our feeling, rejoicing, mourning, hoping, fearing, thinking, for us? It is a mass of fat, of phosphorized oil, two pounds in weight, called the brain. We study the brain continually. We get to know it better and better every day.

And I can pretty well regulate the hallucinations character, for one drug is to cause one sort of presentation, another another and so on.

I assure you, would have an Articles Dropped in Calumet Mine Shaft Always Found Clinging to East Side—Investigation Going On. It is an interesting scientific fact, and one not generally known, that nothing that falls from the mouth of the deepest mining shaft, in the world ever reaches the bottom. This has been demonstrated at the famous Red Jacket shaft of the Big Calumet. The article, no matter what shape or size it may be, is invariably found clinging to the east side of the shaft. One day a monkey wrench was dropped, but it did not get to the bottom. It was found lodged against the east side of the shaft several hundred feet down. This incident coming to the attention of the Michigan College of Mines, it was decided to make a careful test of the apparent phenomenon. It was decided best to use a small body heavy and a marble, tied to a suspension was suspended about twelve feet below the mouth of the shaft. When the marble was absolutely still, assuring that it would drop straight down, the thread was burned through by the flame of a candle. The marble fell. American Settlers in Northwest Canada Stick to Their Favorite Newspapers Though Dwelling Under Another Flag. From away out at Calgary, in the northwest territories of Canada, into which we are informed that Americans from our northwest are pouring in one continuous stream, comes an admission—a newspaper admission—which will be read with interest and pleasure by the friends these American settlers have left behind them under the stars and stripes in Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota, says the Boston Transcript. The admission comes in the form of a complaint from the Calgary Herald that "in Calgary and other western Canadian cities the newspapers of Chicago, New York and Minneapolis are found in greater numbers than those of eastern Canada"—that is than the newspapers of Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, Halifax and St. John. This preference for American newspapers may be disappointing and a little discouraging to the Calgary Herald. But is it not natural?

It is not hoped to solve the perplexing problem of the distribution of the earth's matter, but it is hoped to add to the information collected concerning it. To this end the Red Jacket shaft presents advantages possessed by no other place in the universe. The deep shafts in other parts of the country and in foreign lands generally begin at an altitude and end above or very little below the sea level, whereas at the Calumet mine the Red Jacket shaft starts in a comparatively low depth, and goes deeper and further below the ocean level than any other in existence. It is hoped within a year to be able to give some intelligent information regarding the investigations—Lake Linden correspondence St. Paul Dispatch Americans who are in northwest Canada are there because land is cheap; and because they consider that in their particular lines of enterprise—mostly farming and stock-raising—there are more opportunities than in the states from which they have emigrated. Back of all, too, there is the inherent love of the Anglo-Saxon for movement and change, for pushing into new and untried fields, and meeting new experiences. These Americans on the other side of the boundary line, in the northwest will undoubtedly make good subjects of King Edward. They possess the same qualities as the men who set out on our own western states, and these make us more likely to play whether they are under Birth or American flag, and will help to build up the new country on good lines and on an enduring basis. It is, however, no disarrangement to these newcomers in the Canadian northwest to say that they still cherish the institutions of the country which they left; and among those which can be practically cherished and carried along—is that great institution, the American newspaper.

THE APPEA PREACHER A DIVER AND ROPE-WALKER One of the most extraordinary preachers that ever came out of the South is the Rev. the "Mountain Evangelist," says a Parkersburg, W. Va., dispatch. At present Mr. James Joseph "Tecumseh Copen," known as Copen, is exhorting in Wirt county, and he selects for his meeting places himself upon the country he can find. His pulpit is perched upon a rock, as high as possible above his audience—usually at a height of about fifty feet—and from Diving Point of Sermon. this elevated position he shouis his sermons through an immense megaphone, specially made for him, to the listening crowds beneath. As an additional attraction for people to gather at his revivals the preacher makes high dives from a springboard seventy or eighty feet high, or walks a tight rope stretched from his alry pulpit to a convenient anchorage. Sometimes this rope is run across a river, if there happens to answer one handy; if not, a canyon answers one handy. It must not be supposed that the Rev. J. J. T. Copen is a "reformed" acrobat or circus performer. He is a American Representatives Asked to Do Queer Things. Andrew White, for so long our representative at St. Petersburg, tells in his biography of the many strange requests made of him. Perhaps the quaintest was a letter from a town in the middle west which reached him when he was at Berlin. The letter was accompanied by a package of cotton cloth in squares, and made the cloth is squared that the emperor and Prince Bismarck divide them up and place on each their signatures. It was explained that there was a church fair to be held in the town and it was desired to place on sale a number of patchwork quilts containing the signatures of the rules of Europe, as well as the leading Americans. Packets, it was explained, had been sent to the other embassies, and it was expected that the quilts would prove quite a profitable article of sale. The notion is squared that the emperor of our minister to France, who received a note reminding him that he was in Paris as the representative of the American people. As the writer felt that she had the right to share his time with the rest of her countrymen, she requested that he try to match a sample of ribbon which she could not duplicate at the local store and which the shopkeeper had declared to be of French manufacture. Hardships of Farming. Little Dick has been thinking for some time that he would like to be a farmer when he grows up. The other evening he toldled to his father's side on the veranda and asked: "What do I have to do in the evening when I be a farmer?" "Why," said his father, "you have to sit on the porch of your farmhouse, like this, with your feet up on the rail." Dick watched his father put his feet up and tried to do the same with his very short and fat little legs. The rail was so high that he had to sit on the back of his head in order to get his feet up, and many moments he slipped down and landed on the veranda floor with a bump. He got up and rubbed himself. Then he said: "Maybe I don't want to be a farmer after all. I might change my mind and be something else." **Schools for Some Brides.** Already there are places, where future brides can be taught the management of a household, and if there were of them the advantage would be great. A statistician who could compute how much money is wasted through ignorance by newly married couples would be able to produce some startling figures. And the training to be given need not be wholly mathematical. "Husbands—How to Humor and Control Them," would be the theme of a course of lectures—treasure. Defective Page mountaineer pure and simple, and in his boyhood devoured himself to athletics, including high diving and tight rope walking. The feats of his younger days he repeats for a twofold purpose—to draw a crowd and to illustrate his sermons in showing how the sinner plunges into evil ways and how "the wicked stand in slippery places." The last place selected by this spectacular preacher for his combined "show" and revival was the historic "Devil's Teatable," near this city. His audience gathered on the banks of the Little Kanawaha river, across which the preacher walked on a tight rope and into which he plunged from a springboard seventy feet above the surface. From the top of the "teatable," he held forth his sermon to the crowd below. The spread was the interest in the peculiar religious service that special trats were run to accommodate the crowds. When asked why he had chosen such an elevated place from which to speak, he said that the Bible suggested it, and he was merely complying with the teaching of the Scripture in Rev. J. J. T. Copen, the Mountain Evangelist, doing everything he has done and intends to do. Cruel Jest on Proud Papa. A young man employed in a Market street office, who recently became possessor of a fine baby, the first in his family, has been made the victim of a cruel jest, and it is causing a few lovers to appear in his raven locks. Upon learning of the happy event in the young man's household a week at the office promptly inserted an ad in the japer offering a fine, healthy baby for adoption, and giving the office 'phone number for the convenience of applicants. The number of 'phone calls by parties seeking information about the baby has been great, and every time an inquirer calls up the proud father is sent to answer. It is in vain he protests that his offspring is not to be given away. The callers pester him with queries about the baby's sex, weight, color of hair and eyes; whether it has dimples, and whether it has curly hair; whether ask it can say "goo, goo," or whether offered to adopt the youngster for $100 to boot, and this was not the only mercenary proffer made.—Philadelphia Record. Denison to Leave Service of Japan. H. W. Denison, an American attorney, who has been for the past twenty-five years legal adviser in the Japanese foreign office, will retire and import to the United States within a year. He is the only American who has ever held such a high position in a foreign government. His place corresponds to that of soletor general of the Japanese government. It is known that an important document has been sent to the Japanese foreign office in recent years that has not been first submitted to Mr. Denison, for his approval. In all probability Mr. Denison will be succeeded by a Japanese. It Didn't Work. "George," said the colonel to a colored man whom he met on the street, "I wish you would spread the news around among your people that I am going to set a spring gun in my henhouse and that if any of them are shot it won't be my fault." "Yes, sah, I'll do so, sah, but I don't reckon it any good." "But why won't it?" "Bekase, sah, as I understand de situashum, dey丹 cleaned your hen-house out last night and won't have any occasion to go back dar!"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. He Lost a Tip. He Lost a Tip. At one of the Kansas City hotels where the colored waiters give especially good service, but always expect adequate remuneration or the same amount of walk was officially offered the other day in serving a man from whom he expected a liberal tip. When the meal had been served and he was standing off at one side, eagerly looking for an opportunity to be of service, he said to the guest: "Did yo' have a brothah heah last week, sah?" "The faithful who are delegated by the higher power to teach the Gospel will be served as Elijah was served," said the hoary head but vigorous mountaineer. "When the time comes for me to go I shall be removed from earth in much the same way that Elijah was taken. It may not be in fire, but the means of removal will be given." The Rev. Mr. Copen is the founder of a new sect for he has not yet found a name, nor is his creed Preaching Through Megaphone, quite clear. He says it is an improvement over the Baptist faith. As yet he has but a few followers, but it hopeful. "Many people say I am crazy," said he, "but I am not. It does not necessarily follow that because I believe in a creed which differs somewhat from all denominational creeds I have ever heard of that I am of crippled mind. I believe in the reincarnation of souls. I have lived for thousands and thousands of years, and so have to thinking everybody else. When I go to thinking myself with Na poleon, and while make out my position at the time, was a high official in some court hun dreds of years ago." George Washington's Judgment of I Would Have Been Rapid I would Have Been Rapid. I had talked with the farmer in the sent mail me for a quarter of an hour about how I lived the weather when he switched off the subject by saying: "I think I made a rather good bargain uptown today." "In what?" "My wife wanted a pair of shoes, and I remembered seeing a lot of second-hand ones when I was in town last. So I went up town and for a dollar I got a pair just exactly as good as if I had paid $2 for a pair at home. It's business to save a dollar whenever you can, aren't it?" "Of course. Had you any other order unknown?" "Nope. I just went for the shoes." "What's the fare up and back?" "A dollar you. And you've lost about a day?" "About a day." I said nothing further, and after about ten minutes had passed, during which time the farmer seemed to be doing some thinking, he all at once turned and said: "Say the shoes cost me 10 cents more than a hew pair right at home." "Exactly." "And you had it figured out ten minutes ago?" "Yes." "Waal, stranger, George Washington was a purty big man from all accounts, but if he had been in your place I don't believe he'd have been ten seconds in callin' me a blamed old fool!"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Make Housewives of Girls Mark Housewives of Girls. Farmers' daughters are educated in many parts of Germany in traveling schools, which go from village to village to village over sixteen years of age practice lessons in housekeeping, cooking, the selection of food, care of poultry and cattle, cultivation of vegetables, and butter cheese making. The results have been so so satisfactory that it is now proposed to add instruction in nursing, cooking for the sick, mending and sewing. The teachers, who are graduates of the schools of housework and have passed government examinations, carry with them an outfit of a cooking stove and the various utensils for cooking and ironing. The classes are held in the schoolhouses, the term lasts six weeks, and the cost of tuition is put so low as practically to exclude no one. "No," said the one addressed, "I be live not." "Well," continued the waiter, "the was a gem'man haw at mai table and the cost of tuition is put so low as practically to exclude no one." The guest had by this time, finished his meal, and as he arose he said to the servant to he game me a dollar when he left. "Come to think of it, Sam, that was my brother that was here, and I guess he paid you for the whole family. He may be back again in a week or two." President at Tuskegee. Gala Day for Tuskegee Normal & Industrial Institute President Introduced by Principal Booker T. Washington..President Roosevelt's Address, as Usual, Characteristic..Industrial Parade Grand Success..Many Distinguished Visitors. Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Oct 24.-President Roosevelt reached the grounds of the Tuskegee Institute and Industrial institute, after a brief stint in the town of Tuskegee, where he was received by the mayor and other distinguished citizens of Alabama. The president's train was brought directly to the grounds of the institute over its premises until midnight this morning, great amounts of people, were arriving from all sections surrounding Tuskegee. The President's party consisted of Secretary William Loch Jr., Surgeon General Rixey, U. S. Navy; Hon. John Mellenyh of Louisiana; Hon. John C. Greenway of Michigan; M. C. Latta and J. L. McGrew, stenographers; H. A. Coleman, representing the Associated Press; R. H.

The professional and mercantile avenues to success are overcrowded; for the sake of the Best Chance of Success, the awakening workers to some mechanical trade or on farms, for this man will almost certainly achieve industrial independence. I am pleased, but not in the least surprised, to have increased so tremendously that there is a scarcity of labor almost everywhere; so that it is the part of the South who wish the prosperity of the South to Amer-ican become in the highest useful to himself, and therefore to the community in which he lives. The South has always depended and now depends chiefly upon her native people for her work. Therefore, in view of the need of the labor man, but of skilled labor, it becomes doubly important to train every available man to be the utmost use by developing his intelligence, his skill and his capacity for conscientious effort. Hence the work of the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute is a matter of the degree, practical importance to both the white man and the black man and well worth the support of both races alike in the South and in the North. The professional and mercantile avenues to success are overcrowded; for the sake of the Best Chance of Success, the awakening workers to some mechanical trade or on farms, for this man will almost certainly achieve industrial independence. I am pleased, but not in the least surprised, to The president was received by Principall Booker T. Washington and members of the institute board of trustees. He then entered a carriage made by the students of the school, drawn by the school, and driven by a student in the Six other carriages, also made by the students, in which were seated other members of the president's party, followed. The party proceeded immediately to an elaborately decorated stand in front of the office building. From this point the president's flag, from this point the university and industrial parade, upon the preparation of which the students and faculty have been at work for several weeks. This parade was headed by the institute head, led by Bandmaster Ebert B. Williams, of the university, and been detailed to Tuskegee by the war department. Then came 1,500 students of the school in two divisions; the young men, uniformed in blue suits, with brass buttons, white gloves and caed caps; the young men, with red braid, and blue straw braid hats, followed, each bearing a stalk of sugar cane topped with a cotton ball, and raised in the school's agriculture experiment station. Immediately behind the student body came sixty-one floats, representing the various departments of the thirty-seven industrial divisions of the school. In this way examples of work being carried on in all departments were put in evidence. Among the more striking floats were those representing the agriculture department, the library, blacksmithing, sheoaking electricity, machinery, the last float carrying an engine in operation made by the students. Printing, brickmaking, and plastering, architectural drawing, experiment station and experiment teaching division, the laboratory, the history and literature, chemistry, training school for gardening were represented, as well as the department of the agricultural division. In addition a Hambletonian stallion, five brood mule colts represented another branch of the agricultural work. The herd of Jersey and other fine strains of cattle was also in line. Introduction by Washington After the parade had passed and the students, faculty and visitors were repairing to the chapel, the presidential party was driven hurriedly about the grounds and was shown the exposition on the bye institute. Then to the chapel the party was taken, where the students, led by the institute chair of 150 voices, sang a number of melodies. Principal Booker T. Washington then presented the president in the following words: "This is a great day for the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute college. We have gathered to hear both our voices. We have gathered to hear but one voice, to see but one face. "In presenting our guest to the students teachers and citizens, I must not omit to express the gratitude felt by the people of Tuskegee Institute and by the people of both races in this section of Alabama for the honor given to the chief magistrate of our beloved republic of $80,000,000 people deemed it good and wise to include Tuskegee Institute in his trip through the South and spent a few hours seeing the work we are doing here, bringing to light the great work of our race in this country a degree of encouragement and insulation which it is impossible for any American citizen not of our race fully to appreciate. My friends, without further words of mine, I have the plea, "You are the president of the United States Hon. Theodore Roosevelt." President Roosevelts Speech. President Roosevelt in part said: "To the white population as well as to the black, it is the most importance that the Afro-American be encouraged to make himself a citizen of the highest type of usefulness.

"The professional and mercantile success are overcrowded; for the pro's Best Chance of Success awards the intelligent workers at some mechanical trade or on a farm; for this man will almost certainly achieve industrial independence. I am pleased, but not in the least surprised, to learn that many among the men and women trained at Tuskegee find immediate employment as leaders and workers among their own people and the services are generally sought by white workers kinds of industrial work, the demand being much greater than the supply. --- "Viewed from any angle, ignorance is the costliest crop that can be raised in any part of this Union. Every dollar put into the education of either white man or black man, in head in hand and in heart, yields rich dividends to the entire community. The entire standpoint, it is of the utmost importance to all our citizens that institutions such as this at Tuskegee should be a success. --- "But these are other and even higher reasons that cattle it to our support. In the interest of humanity, of the welfare of the white man in America, no matter where he lives, should try to help the Afro-American to help himself. It is in the interest and the protection of the Afro-American is educated. Lynching. "It is not only the duty of the white man, but it is to his interest to see that the Aro-American is protected in property, in life and in all his legal rights. Every time a law is broken, every individual in the community has his life lowered. Lawlessness in the United States not confined to any one section; lynching is not confined to any one section, and there are probably no men in any section of the United States who have deserved so well of the public, as the public men, the public citizens, of private citizens who have deserved so well of heroe work in the South in arraying public opinion against lawlessness in all its forms, especially against lynching. I very earnestly hope that their count will count in the North as there are just as great evils to be against in one region of our country as in another, though they are not in all places the same evils. "Right here, let me say that, if in any community a misunderstanding be arises over any matter, infinitely the best way out is to have a prompt. Frank and Full Conference and consultation between representatives of the wise, descent, cool-heated men of the white, and wise, descent, cool-heated men among the colored, and cool-heated men about a better understanding and would be a great help all around." "Hitherto I have spoken chiefly of the obligations existing on the part of the white man. Now let you remember, on the other hand, that no one should easily help you save as you yourselves for selfhelp. You, young colored men and women, educated at Tuskegee must, by precept and example, lead your fellows toward sober, industrious, law-abiding lives. You are in honor bound to join hands in favor of law and justice wrong done by the criminal is the wrong to his own race. "According to the census, the Afro-American of this country own and pay upon something like $3,000,000 of real income over 50 per cent of the illiteracy. What you have done in the past is an indication of what you will be able accomplish in the future under wise leadership. Moral and industrious education is what is most needed in order that this progress may continue. "The race cannot hope to get everything at once. It must learn to wait and bide its time to prove its worth by showing its possession of perseverance, of thrift, of self control.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1905. It is an interesting circumstance that the industrial and commercial rivalry of Japan is to be directed, for obvious reasons, against those very two nations which have been her closest friends and to which, for her awakening already achieved, she owes and the United Kingdom, or perhaps the whole British Empire. —New York Tribune It adds greatly to the interest of the circumstance that the most powerful Caucasian nations are the pelled to admit the existence of a dark-skinned rival. The comparative absence of color-prejudice among Engels undersists his admission comparatively that prejudice among Caucasian United States Americans has just the contrary effect. But the U. S. Americans cater far more for cents than for sentiments as aggrieves and will not allow color-prejudice money getting. The Chinese boycott converted California from sand lot politics as speedily as the old time sinners were converted on the day of the yellow fever scare converted. In America, the federal intervention. Perhaps the Ethiopian cannot change his skin, nor the leopard his spots, but the white U. S. American is a wonderful student in manipulating money matters. The Democrats of Worcester county, Maryland, favor the Poe amendment "because the said amendment presents a case efficient and expeditious method of constituting grounds, of eliminating a large part of the present ignorant, prejudiced negro vote of the State from further participation in politics" and the constitution is accompanied by a long time tradition of the negro race. Now these Maryland states are to learn the fact, if the Poe amendment were restricted rigidly to the "Negro race." it would apply to scarcely anybody in Maryland and if it applied to restricted races of the United States. It is the negro race and prophetology untrue. Among the most distinguished men Maryland has ever produced were two of this mixed race, Benjamin Benneker and Frederick Douglass. Their names will have been honored when these of Gorman and his rabbis shall have been forgotten. In an English village, two men quarreled very hotly, but did not lay hands upon each other. A U. S. American, the man the defendant said to one of the men. Why did you not strike him? "The law," was the reply, "the United States," said the American, "we cannot fought and take our ones charges with law." *Chances with the law,* repeated the Englishman with the chances with this country. In the United States, lawlessness has been permitted to such an extent that the law has become a sounding brass and tinkling cymbal. Our legislatures meet, booole, Jimcrow and adjourn. Our grand Jurids meet us legislators. Our legislators. All parties repair to a gun-mill and chuckle over the farce. There are fine chances with the law in the United States. We find in the Washington Post three sentences, which we designate as numbers 1, 2 and 3, as follows: "Wherever they go Americans are assertive of their Americanism. They continue to be Americans, and carry and paint and theatrical opinions with them. Instead of being by the people among whom they settle they convert those people." Numbers one and two are true, as proven by the fact that a batch of "assertive" Americans recently visited London, England, and at once issued a note that said city should conform to the I军 how laws of Louisiana and South Carolina. Number three is not true, for Englishmen simply laughed at the pompous display of impudence and insolence and—well, they didn't convert those people. "There is work," says the Birmingham News, "for not less than 20,000 industrious, intelligent, law-abiding Alabama than the sooner they are brought to the state better for the State at large. Alabama is rich in resources, but far from proportionately rich in honest labor. The demand is for the industrious foreigners who are willing to work with the promise of a certain and rich reward for their oil, and who easily convert to the customs of the country, and this demand is constantly growing." There are just about 20,000 swell-headed Caucasian politicians in Alabama. Set them to work. Teach them that it is far more honorable to work in the mines and millers than to booble around the legislature, and the trouble will be ended. It is reported that at a recent examination of candidates for admission to the Naval academy at Annapolis only eleven out of twenty-five were found sufficiently sound physically to be admitted. The whole twenty-five passed the mental examination, but fourteen of them were unable to present the necessary physical requirements. Those candidates were the only ones who had a physical condition is a criterion of the morality of the progenitors from whom they sprung; for physical degeneracy is the necessary result of moral delinquency. The sins of the parents are the calamities of the offspring, it might be well for the country to have a better chance to face problem and more to the evils that confront the "best" people. The British in British Columbia have made a trial of the Chinese and Japanese and rendered a verdict in favor of the former. The reasons are summed up in the following paragraph: "The British in Canada is content to be a servant. That is his chief recommendation. While the Japanese cook will be found reading a textbook on botany, or algebra, and who is burning the midnight oil to prepare himself to be a professor in a Japanese college, the student to leave book learning and the high places in life to the Caucasian tree." The Chicago Evening Post truthfully says: "The army is a shining mark for the shafts of those who are in utter ignorance of the true conditions within the service. One officer, or one wife, falls and instantly the statement goes form that every garrison in the land is that honey-baked with drunkenness, and immorality." Such is also the case of the Afro-Americans. They are the victims of the same indiscriminate denunciation. Their case is even worse—all are condemned by the numerous instances of some and remorselessly punished. It is the American way. The anti-Mongolian policy of the American Federation of Labor is strikingly and picturesquely idiotic. If carried out to the full extent, it effectively bar commercial intercourse between Asia and the United States and make enemies of all the nations of the Orient. The two million members of the Federation gain a living by the sale of manufactured articles. We cannot see how they are affected by alluring a half billion of customers. Father forgive them, they know not what they do. The Chicago Inter- Ocean says: "No man in Cook county in the last ten years has cleaned more lives, dried more tears, and brought sunshine into more human souls than has John man, doing his work in his town, which was often not others' way; but, judged by its concrete results for human peace and happiness, it was, on the whole, good work, that will abide and bless: the doer." It is sad to remember that the Chicago republic failed to discover such facts years ago. Says the Washington Post: "When the Republican party of the North made a infiltration of white men of the South, it made it impossible for the real South to be Republican for long years to come." The Republican party never did what is charged. It has loaded the real South with benefits, which the said South was too ignorant and devilish to understand. The real South is meant the old slave holding aristocracy, but the poor white man has about eliminated that element. The Memphis Semitar has what is called a caustic comment upon the lapse of an educated African missionary, David Flickinger Wilberforce, asserts that Wilberforce, on return to the city, elapsed into cannibalism. The story is set afloat by Ananias one day and officially denied by the authorities of the United Brethren Church of which Wilberforce is a member, the following day. The take lasted just one day and snapped up one fool. Bro. Dixon states if thus: "We has assimilated the Jow because his daughter is beautiful and his son is strong in mind and body." The Bos- T. E. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILLIAM BARRETT RIDGLEY WILLIAM BARRETT RIDGLEY Comptroller of the Currency who will be Reappointed by President Roose- ton Herald looks at it thus: "We doubt very much whether either of our two great political parties would think of nominating for leading states, or one of the Jewish citizens of Massachusetts, although he might have the ability and personal worth which would fully justify such a selection." Mr. Dixon quotes the following as the author of a great historian and philosopher: "I will transcend genius and any period of the world's history and I'll show you a man with Hebrew blood in his veins." Now, either the foregoing is melancholy or Shakespeare, Milton, Newton, and Homer are all dead. They were not of men of transcendent genius for lack of Hebrew blood. Grover Cleveland salled into the Women as Rosentjensky sailed into the Dacers and the women are sailing into Groven as they sailed into the Russians. We fear that there will be little left of the Ex-president when the conflict ends. Adam, the first man, Sampson, the strongest man, were all knocked out by women and Grover ought to have known better. Sam Jones' graphic truthful and admirable description of a southern leg PRESID President of All islature deserves to be passed around. He describes the gang which polluted Atlanta as: "That damnable, whiskey-headed red-nosed crowd, the Georgia legislature. He also remarked in a speech as soon go to Alaska for pineapples, or to Hall for water, as to go to the Georgia legislature for anything." "The timmer is scant" when such a freak as Vardaman is imported to enlighten the descendants of Lord Baltimore. There was some sense of the fitness of things when Tillman was sent on an exhibition tour to the Chicago stock yard, and he renamed choice of beingassoed by the boss of a Clark street museum. But we will not answer for Vardaman if he rushes into Baltimore. Tom Dixon says: "If there is one thing that a southern white man can ```markdown ``` not endure, it is an educated Negro." "Such bombastic vtuturation" has slim, and slik-like flavor of "piliflus pusillus" faculty reach a sublimer height?" PRESIDENT AT TUSREGEE "Remember also that the white man who can be of most use to the colored man is the Southern and the southern people themselves that man and must solve the difficulties that exist in the South. --- "Of course what help the people of the rest of the Union can give them must and will be gladly and cheerfully given. "The hope of advancement for the colored man in the South lies in his steady, common sense effort to improve his moral and material condition and to work in harmony with the man in upbuilding the commonwealth. The future of the South now depends upon the people of race races living up to the spirit and living the laws of their several states and working out the destinies of both DENT ROOS the People. Hls Moth races, not as races, but as law abiding American citizens." ```markdown ``` **Treat each man according to** **his worth as a man.** Distrust all who would have any one dish of his worth. Other republics have fallen be- cause the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for the republic as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. --- A German detachment has just been cut to pieces by the Herreros of Africa. Germany claims to know more of the science of war than does any nation of Europe, but her trained soldiers are not maintaining their prestige. Those black Africans have jolted about all of the "Hoch, der Kaiser!" out of them. THE CITY OF MAGNIFICENT DISTANCES. 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. Hiram Watty, the Baltimore Afro-American politician, died suddenly in that city last Friday. At the time of his death he had $2,100 in cash in his wallet. Watty was born in 1844. His first political office was inspector in Custom House, to which he was pointed about 1870. In 1899 he was elected a member of the city council and served three successive terms. He was defeated last May by a Democrat. This death Watty was treasurer of the St. Louis League. He was a thirty-third-deceased Mason. Watty was well-to-do. Washington, Oct. 25—The will of Mrs. Juno Stewart, dated May 19, 1905, has been filed for probate. By its terms, after the payment of legacies, the residue of the estate is left to Samuel W. Curriden, Lloyd Lloyd H. Chandler, U. S. N., and Irving Williams, her executors. SEVELT toe: "All Men Up." residue thus left to the executors is to be converted into money or securities to be known as "The Juno Stewart Fund," for the establishment of an institution for aged Afro-American women. William Brooker, a citizen of Southeast Washington, died suddenly at his home. He was prominent and popular in local political circles and recently received an appointment to a position he was doomed not to fill. Three daughters, one son and his brother, George Brooker of New York, survive him. The funeral took place Sunday from Mr. Mob Baptist Church, Rev. Randolph Peyton made a special trip from Richmond, Va., to preach the funeral sermon. The annual report of Gen. George B. Davis, Judge Advocate General of the army, shows that of the commissioned officers tried during the last conviction and court-martial, 35 were convicted and 4,393 enlisted men were convicted, while 356 men were acquitted. The Pension Office is to be the purge of money-lending sharks immediately if the efforts of Commissioner Warner can bring it about. He is energetically running to earth those thrifty men in the bureau who fatten by lending their hardless fellow-clerks cash at rates that would shame Shylock. Commissioner of Internal Revenue Yerkes decides that a physician cannot prescribe whiskey to a patient when not compounded with medicine, without involving himself in special tax liability, even though he prescribes and sells it for use as medicine only. The cooking department is an important factor in Washington public schools. The Armstrong Manual Training school has a large and well kept kitchen. Mrs. Shaw who is superintendent of the cooking schools formerly taught at Hampton. The roll books of the city of Baltimore show a total registration of 119,631 qualified voters in that city. Of these 102,005 are white and 17,686 Afro-American. The 24th Infantry, composed of Afro-Americans, now stationed in Montana has been ordered to the Philippines.

Wm. Lloyd Garrison Centenary. Tuskegee Institute, Ala. Oct. 17. Editor THE APEAL: The one-hundredth anniversary of the birth of William Lloyd Garrison which occurs on Dec. 10, it seems to me is an event which should not only deeply stir and interest the colored people, but also which should not pass without proper recognition on the part of the white people. Steps are being taken by the colored people to have the event celebrated by members of their race through a country, but all of us now recognize the black work of Mr. Garrison and his co-workers not only freed the black race, but was equally important in emancipating a large part of the white people of the United States. It is true, it will be conceded, that to Mr. Garrison and his workers we owe, in large part, the fact that we now have a united country. As the national, and even international character and value of Mr. Garrison's services are now so widely recognized, I cannot, as a member of the family, from urging upon the public the importance of seeing that the celebration of his one hundredth anniversary shall be of such a character as to do credit to our entire country. More and more joyful are the celebrations joying the fruits of Garrison's work, and we should not fall to keep before this and coming generations the heroic and far reaching nature of his services to mankind and the repub Yours truly.

General speaking, it may be safely put that mastership in any of the sciences is usually won by the man whom birth has placed in an environment in every way conducive to the development of a scientific career.

Would Either Have Debt Stand. A Welshman used a fellow countryman some time since for a certain amount of money owing to him. The debtor repeatedly offered to work off the debt, but this offer did not seem at all to suit the taste of the creditor. At last the judge asked the plaintiff the reason for his unwillingness to accept the debtor's offer to "work off the debt." His reply was: "Well, you see, your honor, the man's undertaker!" -London Tilt-Bits. HOWARD'S Shoe Polishes NEW YORK A.C.HOWARD, CHICAGO W.
