WHY ALL BROA A certain young woman from Texas got to New York night before last. Bright and early yesterday morning she dunned a new gray gown, made especially for the benefit of Mahatam Island, and started from Fifty-eighth street to see what Broadway looked like. It was all joy and wonder till she passed Forty-second street and drew near to Herr Comfield's sope castle. Then the young woman from Texas suddenly discovered that everybody who passed was starting at her. At first she thought it must be a mistake—but it wasn't. Undoubtedly something was the matter. Panie-stricken, Miss Texas began to revolve like a dancing Dervish and looked over her shoulder to see if the trouble was with her clothes. She could discover nothing to warrant the curios, amused glances that were cast at her. With every step she got more nervous. "How in the world do these people know this is the first time I ever saw Broadway?" she asked herself. "I'm It will be remembered that at the time of the Boxer outbreak Earl LJ was in Canton as viceroy of the Two Kwangs, says a writer in the Chauquan. While there he made a contract with a syndicate of native merchants to sell to them the privilege of collecting the likin tax or mileage duties on local commerce. The terms were one-fourth cash and the balance in equal quarterly installments. The syndicate made their first payment and then attempted to reimburse themselves by collecting the tax from their competitors in business while passing their own goods free. This resulted in so force that they were forced to abandon its efforts to collect the tax. They then appealed to Earl LJ for the return of their money and insisted that he should take over the collection of the tax, which was properly a government function. The cart refused and intimated that he would hold the Two old farmers, next-door neighbors, named respectively Lou Hyde and Dave Styles, live within a radius of ten miles of Ossinee, N. H. They are wont to vie with one another in telling of their wonderful luck fishing. One hot June day Dave helped Lou cut his hay. Next day Dave sauntered into the village postoffice and gave an account of his doings the day previous in this manner: "Went fishin' yesterday. Luck? Well, by snum, guess I did have luck! Got forty beauties; biggest one weighed two pounds if it did an ounce; littlest feller quarter of a pound, sure as God made little apples. The audience of native wisecases was duly impressed. During that same afternoon Lou Hyde drove up to White E. C. Carrigan was in Gen. B. F. Butler's law office a lady came in to ask some advice. As the general was not in, Mr. Carrigan questioned her, and told her he would submit her case to the general, which he did. The general was to leave the next day for Washington, and told Mr. Carrigan to prepare a brief of the lady's case and show it to him the next day. Mr. Carrigan sat up half of the night writing his brief. The next morning, about fifteen minutes before Butler was to take his carriage for the train, he told Mr. Carrigan he would look at his brief and give his opinion.

Her course to Thirty-fifth street was all misery and gloom. It was impossible to get away from those looks. Her face began to take on a hunted expression. All at once she was overjoyed to see the face of a woman with whom she had dined in her Fifty-eight street boarding house the night before. The fellow-boarder stared at her, too. "What is the matter with me?" wailed the Texan, rushing up to the other woman. "What makes these awful people stare at me so?" The other woman gurgled; "Don't you see all those posters? Everybody thinks you are part of the parade," she said. There were six sandwich men, each bearing a large placard, reading: "See 'The Little Gray Lady.'" The woman from Texas, in her gray gown, had walked five blocks behind them—New York Times. members of the syndicate for the other payments as they came due. At this time the earl was called to Pekin to arrange peace with the foreign powers, and the syndicate, having been unable to secure the return of its money, made arrangements with a band of pirates that they should waylay the earl on his trip up the coast and take back the billed paid him by the syndicate, for which service the pirates were to receive a percentage. The earl, however, heard of the arrangement and therefore refused to make the trip in a Chinese vessel, knowing that the crew would be in company with the pirates in a large number of the crew were not made up from the pirate band; so he remained at Canton, surrounded by his retainers, refusing to go to Pekin until an English war vessel was gains to convey him and his ill-gotten to a place of safety in the north. the store to get the mail (one circular of a new brand of spavin cure and the weekly paper). The conscientious postmaster duly recounted the great luck Dave had had fishing the day before, hoping to pique Lon's pride. Lon listened in silence to the entire recital. Then, rising slowly from his rush-bottomed chair, he unhitched his trusty nag from the kerosene barrel in front of the store, expectorated carefully toward the court house, and asked: "Dave caught all them, did he?" "Sartain," affirmed the postmaster, "Yesterday?" "Sure, yesterday." Lon climbed into his buggy, picked up the reins, chirruped to the horse and then crushingly fung over his shoulder: "The devil; he hain't been." Mr. Carrigan began by saying: "General, I have made a most careful study of this case. I have the points all in my head, and can state them to you in three minutes." "Let me have the brief," again said the general, somewhat sharply. "But, Gen. Butler," said Mr. Carrigan, "I had a brief prepared, and intended to show it to you, but I left it at home on my table. However, as I said, I have all the points of the case in my head." "Young man," said the general, "the next time you have a brief for me to bring me the brief, and leave your head at home on the table." THE APPEAL. PROFESSOR BURY TELLS THE STORY OF HIS LIFE AND SHOWS WHAT HE ACOMPILISHED Two extreme and 'opposite' views have been held as to the scope and dimensions of St. Patrick's work in Ireland. There is the old view that he first introduced the Christian religion and converted the whole island, and there is the view, propounded by Prof. Zimmer, that the sphere of his activity was merely a second opinion is refuted by a certified examination of the sources, and by its own incapacity to explain the facts, while the first cannot be sustained because clear evidence exists that there were Christian communities in Ireland before Patrick arrived. But the fact that foundations had been laid here and there does not deprive St. Patrick of his eminent significance. He did three things. He organized the Christianity which already existed, he converted kingdoms where there still pagan, especially in the west, were taught Irish into connection with the part of the empire, and made it formally part of universal Christendom. These three aspects of St. Patrick's work are illustrated by J. B. Burry, formerly fellow of Trinity College, Dublin, and now regius professor in the University of Cambridge, in a volume of 400 pages. ("The Life of St. Patrick and His Place in History," issued by the Macmillan company.) The subject attracted the eminent scholar's attention not as an important crisis in the history of Ireland, but, in the first place, as an appendix of the Roman empire illustrating the emanations of its influence beyond its own frontiers, and, in the second place, as a notable episode in the series of conversions which spread over northern Europe the religion which prevails to-day. Doubts of the very existence of St. Patrick had been entertained, and other views almost amounted to the thesis that if he did exist he was not himself but a nameakes. It was at once evident to Prof. Burry that the minder had never been critically sifted, and that it would be necessary to begin at beginning, almost as if nothing had been taken in a field where much had been written. Concerning the work of Told on the subject, he acknowledged that in learning and critical acumen it stands out pre-eminent from the mass of the historical literature which has gathered round St. Patrick, yet it left him doubtful about every fact connected with Patrick's life. Sought the Original Sources Prof. Bury's justification of the present biography is that it rests upon a methodical examination of the sources, and that the conclusions, whether right or wrong, were reached without any prepossession. His conclusions tend to show that the Roman Catholic conception of St. Patrick's work is generally nearer to historical fact than the views of some anti-papal divines. The conversion of Ireland to Christianity has, as Prof. Bury points out, "modest place among those manifold changes by which a new Europe was being formed in the fifth century. the beginnings of the work had been press and dateless, due to the play of access and the obscure zeal of nameless piersmen, who was organized and established, so that it could never be undone, mainly by the efforts of one man, a Roman citizen of Britain, who devoted his life to the task. "The child who was destined to play this part in the shaping of a new Europe was born before the fourth century, perhaps in the 390 A.D. His father, Calpurnius, was a Briton, like all free subjects of the empire, he was a Roman citizen; and, like his father Potitus before him, he bore a Roman name. "Calpurnius called his son Patricius. But if Patricius talked as a child with his father and mother the Brythonic tongue of his forefathers, he bore the name of Sucat. He was thus double-named, like the Apostle Paul, who bore a Roman as well as a Jewish rame from his youth up. But another Roman name, Magnonus, is also asorb'i a Patrician; and possibly his full style—as he appear in the town registry when he held a dace to exercise the rights of a citizen—was Patricius Magousus Sucatus. "Partick Became a Slave. As the son of a deacon, Patrick was educated in the Christian faith, and was taught the Christian scriptures. When he was in his 17th year a fleet of Irish freebooters came to the coast or river-banks in the neighborhood seeking plunder and loading their vessels with captives. Patrick of his father's farmstead, and was one of the man-servants and maid-servants were paranoid that parents escaped. He was carried to the ultimate places of the earth," as he says himself, as if Ireland were severed by half the globe from Britain. Defective Page Of all that befall Patrick during his captivity we learn little, yet the little knowledge we possess is more immediate and authentic than our acquaintance with any other episode of his life, because it comes from his own pen. For six years, according to the common tradition and general belief, Patrick served a master whose name was John. His lands and his homestead were in Delaware, and Patrick herded his drives of pigs on Mount Miss. While he ate the bitter bread of bondage in a foreign land, a profound spiritual change came over him. He had never given much thought to his religion, but now that he was a thrall amid strangers, the "Lord," he says, "opened the sense of my unbelief." The ardor of religious emotion, "the love and God of God," so fully conceived, his soul that in a single day or night he prayed, and he describes himself in a woodland or on mountain side, rising from his bed before dawn and going forth to pray in hall or rain or snow. Thus the years of his hondage were also the years of his "conversion," and he looked back upon this stage in his spiritual development as the most important and critical in his life. The book in which he describes his escape and strange adventures in his journey through God and Italy was written by a young old man. He rigidly omitted all details which did not bear upon his special purpose in writing it. That the land of his captivity was Ireland, this was indeed significant, but otherwise names of men and places were of no concern, and might be allowed to drop away. Found Refuge is a Cloister. "Patrick found a refuge in the island cloister of Honoratus," says the au thor, "where we have reason to think that he lived for a considerable time." Among the men of some note who sojourned in the monastery in its early days was Hilary, who afterward became bishop of Arclate; Maximus, who was second abbot and then bishop of Reil; Lupus, who subsequently held the see of Trecasses; Vincentius, who taught and wrote in the cloister, and Eucherius, who composed, among other works, a treatise in praise of the hermit's life. Eucherius had built a hut for himself and his wife, who aborn from the rest of the brotherhood, in the larger island of Lero. "There can be no doubt that the years he spent at Lerius exercised an abiding influence on Patrick. He was brought under the spell of the monastic ideal, and though his life was not to be sequestered, but out in the active world of men monastic societies became a principal and indispensable element in his idea of a Christian church. At Lerius, perhaps, his desire, so far as he understood it, was to remain a monk. But there were energies and feelings in him while such a life would not have contended. In new years he left the monastery to visit his hinsk in Britain, and there he became conscious of the true destiny of his life." A self-revealing dream convinced Patrick that he was destined to go as missioner and helper to Ireland—to the limit of the world. In A. D. 422 Patrick was consecrated bishop of the Scots, as the Irish were then called. Ireland When he Arrived. The fourth chapter of the volume is devoted to an exposition of the political and social condition of Ireland when Patrick arrived to organize into a church the individual Christians or small and scattered Christian communities which already existed there. Ireland was, the author says, "divided into a large number of small districts, each of which was owned by a tribe, the aggregate of a number of clans or families which believed that they were descended from a common ancestor. At the head of the tribe was a 'king', who was elected from a certain family." The success of Patrick's enterprise depended on the kings of the tribes and chiefs of the clans. If a chief accepted the new faith, his clan would generally follow his example, and thus on every account the process of establishing the Christian worship and priesthood in Ireland must begin from abroad and not from below. Patrick and his exclinists in his train, and it was not unimportant that the Christian, going forth to persuade the heathen, had such equipments of superstition. The heathen sorcerer on common ground, because he believed in the sorceries which he condemned. He was as fully convinced as the pagan that the powers of magicians were real, but he knew that those powers were strictly limited, whereas the power of his own God was limitless. St. Patrick's Place in History St. Patrick's Place in History. Succeeding chapters include Patrick's labs in Dalaradia, Meath, Conn., his visit to Rome, the foundation of Armagh and ecclesiastical organization, the denunciation of Coriotes, Patrick's "confession", death and burial, A. D. 411. In describing St. Patrick's place in history, Prof. Bury declares that the nearest likeness to Patrick will perhaps be found in St. Boniface, the Saxon Winfrid. He, too, like Patrick and Columbia, had both to order and further his faith in regions where he had never penetrated. But, like Patrick and unlike Columbia, he was in touch with the rest of western Christendom. St. Patrick did not do for the Scots what Wulfins did for the Goths and the Slavonic apostles for the Slavs; he did not translate the sacred books of his religion into Irish or found a national church literature. What he and his fellow-workers did diffuse a knowledge of Latin in Ireland. To the circumstance that he adopted this line of policy and not attempt to create a national ecclesiastical language must be ascribed the rise of the schools of learning which distinguished Ireland in the sixth and seventh centuries. "It is true," says the author, "that the Irish church moved on certain lines which Patrick did not contemplate and would not have approved. The development of the organization which it was his task to institute was largely modified in coloring and conformation by the genius terrace. But it would be untrue to say that his work was unione. The schools of learning, for which the Scots became famous a few generations after his death, learning which contrasts with the contact with Owen Ide, whose rise to the contact with Owen Ide, whose acquaintance with Roman literature which his labors, more than anything else, lifted within the horizon of Ireland." Judged by what he actually compassed, St. Patrick, in Prof. Burz's opinion, "must be placed along with the most efficient of those who took part in spreading the Christian faith beyond the boundaries of the Roman empire. He was endowed in abundant measure with the quality of enthusiasm, and stands in quite a different rank from the apostle of England, in whom this victorious emotion of enthusiasm was linking—Augustine, the messenger and instrument of Gregory the Great. "Patrick was no more messenger or instrument. He had a strong personality and the power of initiative; he depended himself, or, as he would on divine guidance. He was not in constant communication with Xystus, or Leo, or any superior; he was thrown upon the resources of his own judgment. Yet no less than Augustine, no less than Boniface, he was the bearer of the Roman idea." "It was Patrick with his auxiliaries who bore to their shores the vessel of Rome's influence, along with the sacred mysteries of Rome's faith. No wonder that his labors should have been almost unobserved in the days of communical stress and struggle, when the Germans by land and by sea were engaging the world's attention, and the Huns were rearing their vast armies in the empire. But he was laboring for the Romans, idea no less than the great Actus himae in another way and on a smaller scene. He brought a new land into the spiritual federation which was so closely bound up with Rome."

Representative Graff analyzed the character of Lincoln, in which he found uppermost that high sense of moral reverence that he earned by the burden of the nation, the speaker also paid a glowing tribute to the memory of Gen.

Senator Hopkins, as a member of the Senate committee on intergovernmental canals, had a talk with the President about canal affairs now before his committee. When asked whether Congress will pass upon the type of a canal he built, Senator Hopkins said, "I pose it will do so. Personally, I am with the administration in the matter of a lock canal. I have reached that opinion largely from the view of Chief Secretary Taft, whom I regard as one of the best advisers in the country. "I am satisfied he knows what to talk about when he says that a lock canal is what this country should build." It is understood today that as the result of the discussion in the cabinet, Secretary Taft will probably offer the offer of a seat on the Supreme Bench to succeed Justice Brown, but the official announcement will not be made until Friday.

SOUTHERN CHRISTIANITY The Western Recorder, published at Louisville, Kentucky, organ of the Southern Caucasian Baptist, "regrets" that Miss Nana H. Burroughs, corresponding secretary of the Women's Auxiliary Convention, connected with the National Baptist Convention, less the "remarkable deliverance" which recently appeared in an issue of The National Baptist Union over her signature and rays: "If the leading Negroes of the land cherish such a spirit, then the time of the proper adjustment of the relations between the races is far better off than many of us have been." Amnez o her things Misa Burroughs said: "That four million Negroes needed intellectual and moral training was evident. This has been wholly neglected by their masters and, indeed, it is painful to say that these masters were responsible for much of the moral restraint that was everywhere evident among the slaves." Is not this absolutely true? Did the Southern Christian (?) slaveholder give their slaves any intellectual or moral training? In nearly every Southern state it was a felony to teach a slave to read and write. In every Southern state instead of teaching their slaves morality, it was a general custom of the master class to debauch their black slave women. There are in the city of Louisville to day thousands of mixed blood people, erroneously C. W. SENATOR SHELBY M. CULLOM, Illinois' Grand Old Man, who has Returned to Washington in Robust Health after a sojourn in Florida. called Negroes, who are the descendants of Kentucky's most aristocratic citizens on the one hand and Negro lives. In many cases they bear the family name. For many years after the war there were hundreds of the leading citizens of Kentucky who lived in open adultery with their black mistresses and the practice is not absolutely obsolete at the present time, although the cases are few and far between. The ancestors of the Southern slaves were in Africa a moral people; all of their immorality was acquired from their Southern Christian masters. "I will bring a libel suit against Mr. Henrotn," he said, "in case he persists in misrepresenting the intentions and gets of Mr. Harris in connection with the Congo reform movement." The opinion of THE APPEAL is that the case against the Belgian government has fully made, and that Mr. Henrotn comes into court after the case has been decided. Moreover Mr. Henrotn is a very weak, hearsay, witness and has no personal knowledge of the facts in the case. The Southern clanmen have boycotted the Constitution of the United "Prejudice is on the increase and race hatred and sectional strife is everywhere felt. If I could believe that the Southern people, with it all of their prejudices, with all of their animosities, are Christians, or even civilized, and that God is going to accept this type and give them a place in the kingdom, I would pray to Him to make me a savage and remove from me every possible means of knowing that Jesus died to save and take my chances in the last day among those who have never even heard the name of Jesus. If the Southern people, with all their prejudices, are Christians, then people in this world who are free from this type of barbarism, are giants." There is no question about the increase of prejudice and race hatred. The average Caucasian Southern Christian mother begins at the cradle to teach her children to hate and despise Afro-American people because of their color; they are taught that the whites are superior and the blacks inferior. The state recognizes the color-line in providing separate and inferior schools for Afro-American children and filthy Jim Crow cars for the whites and mixed races. The Caucasian Baptist Church makes color instead of character the test for those who aspire to membership. After struggling through life handicapped at every step by the helium color-line, the Afro-American who is so unfortunate as to live and die in Kentucky must be buried in a separate graveyard. Miss Burroughs continues: "The Negroes may be ignorant, some may be shiftless, some may be immoral, but it must be said to their credit they have never produced and promised to the highest office a barbarian like Dardaman. If the men in the highest positions in the Southland are of this type, how will you rate the masses? Governors, Senators, Representatives, preachers, business men, the upper class and the army of poor whites need missionaries and need them at once." The missionaries are needed. One reason for the prejudice against the Afro-Americans is the ignorance of the whites concerning the race. The average Caucasian has no idea of the Afro-Americans except what is gained through their intercourse at home with their servants or their relations with black harlots and criminals whom they meet in the saloons and dives. Of the intelligent, refined class of Afro-Americans, they know practically nothing, yet there are thousands of Afro-Americans in Louisville and other cities of the South who are the equal intellectually, morally of the editor of the Western Recorder. The Chicago Chronicle discovers in some recently published fiction evidences of the existence of a race of heathen among the people of the coast towns of New England who are no more educated in civilization than the abortives of the Congo Free State. The Chronicle quotes the author as stating that: Plundering wrecked vessels and people, once so prevalent on British coasts but so mercilessly suppressed there as to be little known now, is practically declared by Mr. Wasson to be a common, undenied and almost universal practice among all the people he describes. In this robbery and perhaps worse of defenseless victims already in sore distress he represents deacons and other leaders in the so-called churches as often taking complacent part, a strange partnership of practical piracy and pretended piety. The above is a strange account to be given of the descendants of the Puritan church yet there is abundant evidence that is substantially true. Such a condition of things can not be suppressed even in the most benighted quarter of Jimeowon village, prise no one to learn that great illiteracy and immortality exist in the South when such conditions prevail in New England. The controversy between the Congo Reform association and Belgian Consult Charles Henroin relative to conditions existing in the Congo Free Str. under the protectorate of King Leopold of Belgium has reached an acute stage. Consult Henroin claims that, for years, Rev. John H. Harris has been attempting to discredit the Belgian government with reference to the Congo Free State. Rev Herbert S. Johnson, the Boston clergyman who is traveling with Mr. Harris, declares matters have gone far enough with regard to the Belgian consul. "I will bring a label suit against Mr. Henrotn," he said, "in case he persists in misrepresenting the intentions and acts of Mr. Harris in connection with the Congo reform movement." The opinion of THE APPEAL is that the case against the Belgian government has been fully made, and that Mr. Henrotn comes into court after the case has been decided. Moreover, Mr. Henrotn is a very weak, hearsay witness and has no personal knowledge of the facts in the case. The Southern clansmen have boycotted the Constitution of the United States, and the Chicago University professors have eliminated the Bible, and now comes the "Secretary of the Century company" and tries to make it appear that the story of George Washington hacking the cherry tree is nothing more myth invented by preacher Weems. And "the concessionist the speaker told of WASHINGTON's strong business sense and habits and exhibited the first time a ledger kept by Washington, showing his winners and losses at cards from 1772 to 1775. The conclusion is obvious that we have no evidence that George could not tell a lie and we at liberty to conclude that he was as skillful in that respect as boys usually are. Moreover to reveal the fact that he played cards for money is a bad thing for the rising prices of playing cards are fond of playing cards for gain can not bother themselves up by referring to the example of Washington. 17 HON. P. B. S. PINCHBACK. One of the Old Guard. In the death of Miss Susan B. Anthony, the Afro-American people lose a friend and helper. Miss Anthony first became conspicuous as an anti-slavery agitator in 1856, when she became one of the regulator agents of the Anti-slavery Society. In 1861 Miss Anthony was hissed and booted in Rochester, N. Y., her home, when she attempted to give a lecture on abolition in Corinthian Hall. That lecture tour which started in Buffalo was a series of riots, but Miss Anthony never flinched. The insults heaped upon her culminated in Syracuse, where she was ogged and burned in effigy. Since the abolition of slavery, Miss Anthony has devoted her life to woman's suffrage, and her work has been of great benefit, not only to her own sex, but to man as well. Peace to her ashes. Tom Dixon asserts that no Afro-American woman knows what virtue is. Per contra, Clark Howell, candidate for governor of Georgia, says: Already throughout the entire state countless thousands of Afro-American children are getting boy legged with their hands in the school. Already thousands of Afro- J. H. HON. ROBT. SMALLS. Collector of Port, Beaufort, S. C. --- --- American women content themselves with pot liquor and wallow in wretched squatter in order that their children may be qualified by education to kill the white man's ballot. Women, capable of making such sacrifices to secure the advantages of education for their children, are grand characters, the very elite of Georgia. We are afraid that Mr. Howell could not say as much for the women of his own race. Some one, who has been studying present conditions, and tendencies in Massachusetts, has brought to light the following facts: The birth record for 1904 is quoted to show that in that, year 23,365 natives were offset by 27,047 foreigners. These were more than half as many children born of foreign parents than of native parents; there were three marriages of foreigners to every four of natives and more than twice as many natives died as foreigners. Moreover, there was an increase of illiteracy and several towns had been turned entirely over to French Canadians. The foreigners are displacing the natives in Massachusetts at an alarming rate and, in many communities the English language is rarely heard. For many years it has been the custom of the Civil Service Commission to post the list of applicants in a conspicuous place in the post offices or federal buildings all over the country. This practice has been discontinued for many reasons and one among those enumerated in the list given out to the press is that many protests had been received from people in the South who objected to their names being posted in company with those of Afro-Americans. The records show that the Afro-American applicants stand high on lists and it is not strange that the illiterate clansmen are not pleased to see their names at the foot of the list while those of Afro-Americans are at the head. The anti-Jewish proclamation allied to have been issued by the Russian bureaucracy reads suspiciously like one of Vardaman's political speeches. Take one of his utterances, cut out the word "Negro" and substitute "Jew" therefor and the document would be in perfect shape for the Russian censor. Is it possible that the Mississippi statesman has been supplying the bureaucracy with jitterstone? By the death of Paul Lawrence Dumbral the Afro-American race in the United States is deprived of the most genuine poet it has produced. His light to the title of a true poet was conceived by many eminent writers, some of them of high rank themselves, as poets. The legitimate inference is that a black skin and crisp hair are not evidence that brain power are lacking. --- The efficacy of the Culifun Interstate Commerce Law, the passage of which the Senator secured more than thirty years ago, was again demonstrated Tuesday at Louisville, Kentucky, when Hollis H. Price of the Price-Barton Hay Company pleaded guilty of falsifying weights and conspiracy to violate the interstate commerce laws and was fined $1,025. There is an intimate connection between political debauchery and every other form of crime. For a community which can deliberately fasten a human being to a stake and burn him to claim to be decent and virtuous, is a contradiction in terms, an assertion which cannot possibly exist. Such a community is rotten in all respects. The Afro-American should learn never to submit voluntarily to his own degradation, especially when he has to pay for it. Let him taboo churches, theatres and all other resorts where he is Jim crowed and not give his money to keep them tip and himself down, instaafflict adherence to this rule will in time produce some effect. The Richmond Planet says: "A colored man who would insult a white man, because he is a white man is as bad as the white man who would insult a black person because he is a colored man. Both are Jonahs and should be cast overboard." What's the matter with the Planet? Isn't it all right? The native vote in the oldest of the South African colonies has become such a formidable force that the Caucasians are thinking of a suffrage limitation to insure their ascendency. A formed writer, however, predicts that the scheme will fail and that the native will everactually rule the country. --- Congressman George W. Prince of Illinois, who is always on the lookout for the interests of the men who fought for the Union, has offered an amendment to the Legislature appropriation bill, exempting from the age provision, veterans and widows of veterans of the Civil War. Bro. Dougherty of the Illinois penitentiary stole an amount slightly short of $1,000,000 in 18 years. His modesty was his grandest trait." --- --- --- THE SPICE OF LIFE SHORT ITEMS FRESH FROM THE JOKE FACTORIES. Didn't Know Where to Look for American Fairy Tales—What Practical Mr. Softy Was Doing—Good Scheme of Mr. Nuritch. Oh, the innocent advertising methods of some of these authors! One of them, in an interview, says: "I rise at 5:30 a.m. and take a spin of several miles to get an appetite for breakfast. After breakfast I write from 9 till 12; then, a light lunch and back to work again." Lucky fellow! Hundreds of his less fortunate brethren "take a spin" before breakfast—but usually it is to see if they can locate the breakfast. Bad Habit "So you lost your position?" we ask of our young friend who has demanded our sympathy: "Yes, the firm told me I would have to quit." "What reason was given?" "I smoked cigarettes." "Why, that seems hardly a sufficient reason for such drastic action?" "Yes; but I was smoking the boss' cigarettes and he caught me at it."—Judge. Fairy Tales. The Englishman—Your country is fine, old chap; but it's too deucedly new. Why, you haven't any fairy tales or— The American—Haven't we?

Black Sarah was busily employed about our small northern kitchen when I had occasion to go out there, and, by way of being pleasant, sald, "You are from the south, are you not, Sarah?" "Law, yes, Miss!" was the answer, "Born in the south?" I continued. "Originally bawn in Richmond, Miss," was the astonishing reply.—Woman's Home Companion. Spreading Himself. Mike was employed in the powder works. One day, through some carelessness, an explosion occurred and poor Mike was blown to pieces, his remains being scattered far and near. When the sad news had been broken to his wife, she said, pathetically, between her sobs: "That's Mike all' over!—Lippin cott's. Quite a Scheme "Yes," said D'Auber, the artist who had been commissioned to paint the portrait of Mrs. Nuritch, "water colors may be easily rubbed out, but——" "All right, then," interrupted Nuritch, "you can paint the head and neck in oil and the dress in water color. Then it'll be easy to make it up-to-date every time the style changes." An Acquired Dislike "No, my husband has a violent dislike to travelling and so I s'pose we'll stay home this summer." "But I thought he loved to travel." "Well, he did until the railroads refused to give the members of the legislature any passes." Domesticating an Angel The leading lady had just received a proposal from the company's richest backer. "An angel all to myself," she said. "Well, I guess yes." So they lived happily for several months. The Bachelor's Question. "This Mr. Batcheller," said the proud mamma, "is just the sweetest, brightest baby in the world."

As thy shadow life doth stand Twining round its rosy band, Old an Irish mother's hand Guide thee in the morn of it? Did a father's first command Teach thee love or scorn of it? Thou who tread's its fertile breast, Dost thou feel a glow for it? Thou of all its charms possess, Living on its first and best, Art thou but a thankless guest, Or a traitor, for it? If thou lovest, where's the test? Wilt thou strike a blow for it? Has the past no goading sting That can make thee rouse for it? Does thy land's spring, Full of buds and blossoming Fail to make thy cold heart cling, Breathing lover's vows for it? With the circling ocean's ring Thou wert made a spouse for it. Hast thou kept as thou shoulds't keep Thy affections warm for it, Letting no cold feeling creep Like an ice-breath o'er the deep, Freezing to a stony sleep, Hopes the heart would form for it, Glories that like rainbows peep Through the darkenst storm for it? Son of this down-trodden land. Aid us in the light for it. We seek to make it great and grand, Its slippess bays, its naked snake, By canvas-swelling breezes fanned! Oh, what a glorious sight for it, The past expiring like a brand In morning's rosy light for it! Think, this dear old land is thine, And thou a traitor slave of it; Think how the Switzer leads his kine, When pale the evening star doth shine; His song has home in every line, Freedom in every stave of it; Think how the German loves his Rhine And worships every wave of it! Our own dear land is bright as theirs, But oh! our hearts are cold for it; Awake! we are not slaves, but heirs, Our fatherland requires our cares, Our speech with men, with God our prayers, Spurn blood-stained Judas gold for it; Let us do all that honor dares— Be earnest, faithful, hold for it! A Rural Landscape DID GREAT AND NOBLE WORK. Labor of St. Patrick Conferred Blessings on Humanity. St. Patrick did a great and noble work in Ireland—great for the church, for humanity and for his own immortal reputation. He found three hundred and sixty-five churches, ordained three hundred and sixty-five bishops and three thousand priests. We are told that he baptized seven Irish kings at once. Whoever has read very much about the old Irish kings and their dispositions will realize that it took a very forceful man to get seven of them together and keep them alive long enough to baptize them. St. Patrick chose for his labors a race worthy of his enthusiasm and affection. No race ever received the gospel with greater joy and willingness than the Irish people. Inumerable religious houses were founded by the Celtic missionaries—among them the famous monastery founded by the Irish monk, St. Columba, on the little island of Iona, which was destined to become a world renowned center of Christian learning and zeal. From this little island, for two centuries, Christianity was spread persistently among the heathen people in all directions. The Irish sent devoted missionaries throughout the Pictish highlands, far off into the forests of Germany where the Druids were still killing human sacrifices and into the fastnesses of the Alps. Wherever men were living as heathens and savages priests to do missionary work were sent out by the Irish church—thanks to the sowing of the seed by the great St. Patrick. Fipperly a Universal Holiday. St. Patrick's day is a universal holiday. The world honor's Ireland's patron saint for the splendid qualities his people have drawn from his teachings. Irishmen rejoice that they have kept the splendid traditions of their race through seven hundred years of oppression. But holding to these principles has exiled them. They are a liberty-loving people and the love of liberty has sent them far from Erin. But other nations have reaped the benefit of their exile. The Irish have contributed to the civilization, the courage and progress of the world. St. Patrick's day, whatever the changes which its observance has undergone in this country, remains an interesting and important day. It serves to keep alive a generous inspiration in the hearts of millions of Americans. A people who thus cherish the noblest things in their past prepare themselves for noble things in the future. The intensity of the Irishman's devotion to the land of his origin only measures the intensity of his devotion to his new home in America. The Irishman is a passionate patriot President Roosevelt is among those who have called attention to the sacrifices and contributions of the Irish people in this country, from the days of the revolution. "A masterful race of rugged character," the President truly said. "So you have fallen heir to five millions?" we asked of our friend who has been conspicuous among those who have been railing at ill-gotten wealth and declaring that no self-re B R Conscientious There were with Washington one hundred and twenty-five years ago, Montgomery died for America under Quebec, and Sullivan and Morgan did their full duty with American land forces, while Barry and other Irishmen flew the flag of the American revolutionists from his ship. They were with Dewey at Manila. They are an important and useful force in American citizenship. That's why all Americans are inclined to join with their fellow citizens of Irish birth or parentage and celebrate St. Patrick's day. ST. PATRICK WORTHY OF HONOR His Career Marked with the True Spirit of Christian Charity. There are those who, dead to sentiment, decry the waste of time of a holiday celebrating the memory of a hero. But is the festal day utterly wasted? Hard labor is the portion of mankind, from the man at the office desk to the laborer in the street. Since the blessings of leisure has little part in most lives, the rare fest day brings with it an inspiration of enthusiasm to cheer the jaded spirits. It is a time for the assertion of the man himself. He escapes for an instant from the grasp of necessity and joys in the privilege of doing what he likes. If, by chance, his mind turns to the hero whose manhood had the power to steward the wheels of work—to a Washington, a Lincoln or a St. Patrick—a gracious influence from the honored dead enters into his soul. Be his heart as dry as summer's dust, his faith and hope worn to a shadow, the passing thought of reverence for men whose integrity shines steadfastly through the ages will have an elevating power, and he will take up his burden on the morrow encouraged and refreshed. To-day the sons of Erin honor the memory of St. Patrick. His gift to his people is the blessed one of peace on earth, good will toward men. His beneficence and genial qualities have the power to awaken joy in the human heart. No sacrifice of heathen nor blood of the martyrs stains his shield; his career was marked with the true spirit of Christian charity. All hall, St. Patrick! May your memory never grow less, but blossom anew as gladly as the ever-green shamrock responds to the call of each returning spring. specting charity, college or mission should accept it. “Yes,” he replied, joyously. “An uncle of mine who was, quite unknown to me, heavily interested in four or five trusts, died and left me a share of his estate.” “And, no doubt, true to your principles, you will soon get rid of it by giving it to some worthy cause?” “Well, you see, I’d like to do so the best in the world, but the way I figure it, every cent of this money is tainted, and none of the worthy causes should be tempted to contaminate themselves by accepting it.”—Chicago Tribune. Forbidden Walking Sticks The famous Basque walking sticks are now prohibited by order of the government, and from henceforth they become curios. The Basque stick is made from a branch of the mediar tree. At one end a steel spike is fastened, over which is screwed the handle. It then forms a club, and, when the handle is removed, a spike for driving cattle. The authorities consider them dangerous weapons, and no doubt they are.
