THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. MANNER OF HOLDING GLASS TOM REED WAS DECEIVED OLD EGYPT'S GOLD MINES --- VOL. 22. NO. 12. Scriver is a man of great energy and dispatch, whose hours are so filled with activities that he has formed a habit of quick and a sometimes injudicious speed. Not for many years he has had time to think twice before speaking, and however generous his impulses and correct his life, he does now and then fume and splurge into vexatious predicaments. It was just in this fashion and meaning no harm at all that he encountered a situation last week that well nigh undid him for a time. Scriver rushed into a telephone booth at the Fifth Avenue Hotel and gave the number of a friend's telephone up town. It was a matter of business as well as friendship, and Scriver had only ten minutes before he must rush away to an appointment in Forty-second street. The conversa- tion at his end of the wire went like this: "Hello, Bill. That you?" he said in his loud and tumbling speech. "That's good. You see, I told you: Hello! Hello! Bob, That you, Bill? Somebody cut in on us. I was saying that—Hello! What the —?" Who's this, anyhow? No, I'm not Robert, and I don't want you. Get off the wire, will you? Say, operator!" Scriver opened the door of the booth, leaned out and called to the girl to take that fellow off his wire. Then he went at it again, but found A social philosopher has discovered that an act very commonly regarded as an effectation of gentility, as found in the manner of holding a drinking glass when drinking from it, is not an affectation at all, but really an unconscious, automatic act. This supposed affectation consists in extending the third and fourth fingers of the hand clear of the glass when it is lifted and tipped forward with its brim to the lips and while the glass is held there in the act of drinking. No doubt it would commonly be considered that people do this for the sake of greater elegance, or at least from an instinctive desire to give to the hand such an appearance, which it would not possess if they closed the entire hand around the glass—if they chucked it, so to speak, a manner of that would seem to savor of rudeness. But this observer says that really people hold those two fingers clear of the glass in drinking because that is the way that is most convenient. If he says, a person should grasp the glass with the whole hand closed snugly around it he would find that the act of tipping the glass so hold re A number of years ago the Hon. Thomas B. Reed told one of his early law cases. A neighbor's boy was arrested for stealing a tray of gold watches, and in court pleaded not guilty. The only witness for the prosecution was the jeweler who lost the watches. His story was that on the afternoon on which the watches were stolen he was fixing up his show window and had removed from it the goods, the tray of watches among them, to the counter near the door. While doing this and dusting out the window, he testified, the boy stood on the sidewalk watching him through the window. As it was dust, he went into a rear room a match, and when he came back the jeweler watched the watches were gone. He jumped through the open door, but could see no one on the street. Prof. R. D. George of the University of Colorado suggests that the ancient Egyptians drew the larger part of their gold from the old workings near Coptos, latitude 26 degrees north, and from the mountains some distance to the south. The mountains to the south of Coptos are probably the mines for which the kings of the twelfth dynasty sacrificed the lives of many thousand men; for the rule of Egyptian kings who wanted gold was to invade Nubia and take possession of the mines, just as when they wanted copper they drove back the nomadic tribes of Sinai and built fortresses to protect their miners. The Nubian gold workings of which Prof. George speaks are placed in an almost inaccessible mountain group south of Nubia, by ancient desert. Here may be open tunnels and shafts penetrating the mountains to almost unknown depths. In the decade of 1840-50 Col. W. A. Bryant was a young attorney in Barre, Mass, and also editor of the Barre Gazette and an ardent Democrat, the leading parties in the country then being Whigs and Democrats. In the campaign of the fall of 1841 Col. Bryant was to make an address in Hubbardston and drove over during the afternoon, the distance being about eight miles. In the course of his tirade against the Whigs he said: "your case is lost, and they will get lost themselves if they stay out after dark." After a rousing meeting he started home, and as it was dark, with no moon and the sky cloudy he got off the road. Noticing a light in a farm house, he stopped and knocked at the door. The farmer came to the door the other man making as much fuss as he was. For one brief, trying moment, Serviller tried persuasion. "Say, old man," he said, "I'm in an awful rush. Don't you. "So," he said, "I'm snappy reply, "Whose wire is thus, anyhow?" "It's mine, you _____," I tell you it's mine. You've no right to—" "O, shut up that trap, and get out," sang out the voice. "You talk too much." That was incendiary, and Scrivern didn't think at all before he spoke. "I'll give you a box of cigars!" he shouted, "a good box of cigars if you'll give me your name and address so I can come around and smash your face, face." Sure! "came the quick response, in confident, almost eager tones. 'I'm always glad to accommodate a gentleman. My name's Kid McCoy, and I live at the Hotel Cumberland." Silence fell in Scrivern's booth. He dropped the receiver, leaned back in his chair, and gasped for breath. He sat a full minute there in a sort of trance, then opened the door and walked out, dazed and perspiring. A page overtook him at the door of the writing room. "This cents, please," said the boy. Scrivern paid, and took to the street to cool off. Up to yesterday Mr. McCoy was still smoking his own cigars.—New York Press. quired more muscular effort, for the muscles extending from all the fingers would then be called into use. Whereas as if the person drinking holds the glass between the thumb and the first two fingers he not only relieves the tension on the muscles of the two other fingers, but also in a way he pivots the glass and makes it easier to tip on that account. Thus the separation of the two fingers from the glass is a perfectly natural act. This philosopher concedes that the act may be exaggerated; that fingers thus extended might even be seen raised and extended more than was really comfortable for the better display of rings adorning them, and he concedes that sometimes when we see our fingers thus raised as we lift our glass, in clear view of all, we may seek to crook the fingers in attitudes of excess of greater grace and so he concludes that some cases the raising of the fingers in glass may show affectation in some measure, but his point is that in its original inception and in the practice by the many the elevation of these two fingers is not an affectation, but an act quite unconscious and automatic. The boy took the witness stand, and testified that on the day of the theft he and some other boys went to Cape Elizabeth about 1 o'clock and did not return until about 9 o'clock that night. His testimony was corroborated by the other boys and by his father. Mr. Reed said he had made many argumentally correct statements he had never beaten the one he made then, for he believed in the innocence of the boy, and put his whole soul into it. The prosecuting officer made no argument, and the judge discharged the boy, who at once left the room. Mr. Reed soon went out, and the boy met him and said: "You did well, Tom, but I can't pay you until I can get up to Boston and sell them what we were buying." "In about a week," said Mr. Reed. "he came into my office, and held a new, crisp $2 bill on my desk, and went out without saying a word." Three hundred stone huts shelter 300 mills used in pulverizing the ores; immense cisterns once caught the scanty water supply from the upper slopes; and near them stand the sloping tables on which pulverized ore was washed. Records show that these mines were worked with little interruption for twenty centuries by the Egyptians, and here are means of knowing how long they were worked by the Nubians before them. In the inscriptions of the New Empire various kinds or grades of gold are mentioned; and in one of the Tellel-Amarna letters, written during the eighteenth dynasty, the king of Babylon accuses Amenophis III. of Egypt of sending him a mass of base metal for gold says: "The twenty mines of gold you found were washed, when melted down, only five mines of pure gold." So that the "gold brick" even then was not unknown. with a lantern and asked what was wanted. The colonel politely asked to be directed to the straight road to Barre. At a glance the farmer discovered who the caller was, having attended the meeting, and said: "Ai't you the young feller that was making the address at Hubbardston this evening?" "Yes," said Col. Bryant, "and I have lost my way." "Well," said the farmer, "I'm a Whig and have found my way home, and, by gosh, you can find yours, if you can," and slammed the door in the colonel's face. The colonel finally found his way home, and related the incident to his friends with great glee. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN., SATURDAY, MARCH 24, 1906. Jupiter Keeps a Journal of Domestic Doings on Olympus January 1—Well, this is easy. Juno said she'd bet a cookie that I couldn't keep a journal any better than I could keep my word. I have no use for her cookies—she makes them herself—but there's a principle at stake and I show her. Wives don't seem to appreciate their husbands properly anyway. It was cloudy to day and cold. The furnace is out of fix. Didn't make any New Year calls. Juno said if I did I better order an ambulance to follow in case of emergency. I despise sussex sarcasm in women. Sent word to Varyan to make a new hinge for the furnace door. She said do any work in his shop, as he was out of coal owing to the advance in price by the trust. This is something strange. Think I'll organize a trust myself if there's anything in it. Pa Ganymede six oboil to carry a message to a lady friend. I kicked at first, but when he said he'd take the bill to Juno I reconsidered.

Too tired to write any more. Wound up the clock. Jan. 4—Juno's mother got here unexpectedly to day. The old home ain't what it used to be. She snorted when Juno told her I was writing a journal. I'm the victim of a female conspiracy. Signs of falling weather. Bacchus said he would stop with his wagon in the morning and leave four barrels and a keg. I will need it.

I am not the god of war. Janus has that job but he hasn't got Mrs. Saturn on his hands. He would resign his portfolio if he had if that old woman isn't a cat she ought to let her back down.

Some years ago, when the West was wilder than it is to day, a young man, since grown rich and now famous as a regular boarder at a hotel in a frontier town. He and a number of his friends were wont to resort even evening to the smoking room of the hotel, which they used as a sort of club, and their wants were attended to by a fair waitress who may be called Miss White. She was a nice, quiet girl, and attended to the wants of her patrons with regularity and promptitude. One evening after she had retired for the night the landlord informed the company that this was the last time she would wait upon them, as she was going to be married next day. When the landlord had gone out Jimmie Hughes, the young man referred to, got up and said he thought it only right that they should show their appreciation of her services by making her a little present on this auspicious occasion. He took a sheet of paper, and wrote his name down for $200 and passed it around. The girl was popular and the idea caught on, and when she would again to generous Jimmie the total amount to something over $2,000. They summed the landlord, handed over the amount to him and asked him to give it to Miss next morning with their hearty good wishes for her happiness. Next day she was married, and the happy brideroom was—Jimmie Hughes—Exchange. She Had Dressed in Haste A smartly-frooked young woman created a small-sized sensual among dinners at a Broadway table dhote specialty house the other night because of her bewitching beauty. Her visibly proud, but homely escort had assisted the fair one to divest her fur coat, and both immediately engaged in engrossing conversation. It was observed that folks seated at adjoining tables in the rear focussed their gaze on milady's back. The X-ray silk waist, which was one of the extreme peek-a-boo brand, was intended to be buttoned at the back. As a result of the evident haste in dressing, the garment was only fastened at the collar and waist line, revealing a broad expanse of flesh tint. Clearly this oversight caused the objection untwanted attention no inconvenience back draughts or otherwise; hence a blissful ignorance of the situation. And not one of the laughing sisterhood went to her assistance—New York Press. Secret "So you are a social leader in the scintillating set at Newport?" interrogated the bold stranger.

A Collection of Events Occurring Among the People of The Capital of This Great and Glorious Nation and Condensed for the Hasty Perusal of our Many Readers. Special Correspondence THE APPEAL Special Correspondence THE APPEAL Washington, March 21st — A vigorous presentation has been lodged with the District Commission of the Affor-Ameri- apartment house on Ward place, between New Hampshire avenue and Twenty-second street northwest, by the property owners and residents of the apartment. The protest is in the form of a petition signed by Charles H. Raub, of 1240 New Hampshire avenue, and about thirty others, all of whom are residents of the immediate vicinity. It declares that the proposed apartment has been granted the value of the property, and asks the missioners instruct Building Inspector Ashford to refuse the permit when the matter is brought to his attention. Building Inspector Ashford states that no permit has been applied for up to this time, but that in case applica- tions are made, the law gives him no discretionary powers. Of course Mr. Raub cannot prevent the erection of a flat for Afro-Ameri- cers but the petition shows the strength of race prejudice in this city. Lieut. Thomas H. R. Clark lectured on "The Colored Soldier" in the course of free lectures to the people at the Armstrong school. Lieut. Clark, who is a clerk in the Treasury Department, is a Spanish war veteran. Cadets of the Army School serve as hosts for the occasion. He told the history of the Colored troops in all the wars of ancient, mettal and modern times, showing by historical instances the ability of the Colored man to command and to obey, by historical instances the ability of the Men as Hannibal; Diaz, the liberator of Brazil; Toussaint L'Ouverture, Antonio Macio and Gen. Alfred Dodge for illustrations. Rev. W. H. Scott, of Woburn, Mass., called on the members of the House Committee on Industrial Arts, and Expositions and on behalf of the Massachusetts Suffrage League protested against the appropriation of money for the Jamestown Exposition unless assurances are given that Afro-American will not be discriminated against while visiting the exposition. Yesterday the President sent to the Senate: To be placed on the retired list of the army with rank of lieutenant colonel, Major Allen Allensworth, chaplain, 24th Infantry. Speaker Cannon gave a dinner at the New Willard Saturday night in honor of the Gridiron Club of Washington, to which he invited distinguished men from many sections of the country. Mr. Cannon has been one of the Gridiron Club's favorites among public men for years, and has graced with his speeches and entertained many times. Saturday night the tables were turned and the Gridiron Club became guest instead of host. The Senate has passed a bill authorizing the erection of monuments to the memory of John Paul Jones, Dorothea Lynde Dyke, and Henry Wadsworth Longfellow within the limits of the county of Columbia. Appropriations of $50,000 for John Paul Jones monument, $10,000 for the Dyke monument, and $5,000 for the Longfellow monument are provided for in the bill. At the meeting of the Men's League of the Calvary Baptist Church, Justice Wendell Phillips Stafford, of the Superior of the District, made the address of the poet John Paul Jones to the Poet Laureate of Freedom." The remarks were enthusiastically received. The speaker dwell upon the part taken by Whittier in the anti-slavery agitation, of which he was the poet laureate, claiming that this was his highest and most enduring title to fame. When a mob in Chattanooga Monday night nlcled Ed Johnson, an Afro-American under sentence of death, the majesty of an order staying the execution entered by the Supreme Court of the United States was outraged. For the first time in the history of the country a manure of the Supreme Court was nullified. It was believed that Chief Justice Fuller and the Associate Justices of the Court will take immediate action to determine where the contempt lies, and Marshal Weyght, probably assisted by the Department of Justice, will be instructed to visit the court upon those guilty of laxity in the court son, protected by the order of the tribunal, to be put to death in violation of law. Commissioner of Pensions Vasepasian Warner is contemplating making a final move toward perfecting the Pension Office-force on a purely business plane by the beginning of the next fiscal year. He will also mandate the positions of seventy-eight employees with salaries ranging from $2,000 per year down to $900. The change would result in a saving of $1,000 in expenditures annually to the bureau. In making this move the Commissioner would not discharge a single employee. Following out his well-formulated plan he would so reorganize his force that the positions he would drop would be those resulting from vacancies now existing.

Stewart, attorney for Aaron P. Priolean, the Afro-American who is attempting to unseat Representative George S. Legare, opened the case with a review of the charges against Mr. Legare's campaign managers. He alleged that the system of voting was legitimate. Driven ballots were leftright from the ballot boxes and that the South Carolina Constitution of 1895, limiting the right of suffrage, was unconstitutional. Representative Littner of New York announces his retirement from congress and will not. be candidate for re-election. Mr. Heflin of Alabama, the Congressman who displayed his anarchistic spirit when he suggested the idea of blowing up President Roosevelt and Washington with a bomb, is very indignant. He worked on buildings in the District of Columbia is done on Sunday. "Why," says the good Mr. Heflin. "It is no common thing to see men working on buildings as though this were a beathatching bill it took such things as the Sabbath." Mr. Heflin will be produced in Congress Monday, prohibits such work under penalty of not less than $25, nor more than $600. In Heflin's native Alabama, Sunday is often given over to the mob murders of Afro-Americans. Announcement has been made by the Postoffice Department that the Chicago office is to have all the additional clerks required as soon as Postmaster Busse made the necessary formal request. General Cortel you has informed Senator Hopkins to this effect, and it is understood that the item of $5,500, carried in the urgent deficiency bill recently passed by Congress, is to be applied to the needs of the Chicago office. The House Committee on the Election of President, Vice President, and Representatives in Congress has agreed to make a favorable report on a bill by Representative Norris, of Nebraska, providing for the extending of a term of Congress to four years and for the election of Senators by popular vote. By mistake, several days ago, Mr. Hughes (W. Va.), favorably reported from the committee on accounts a resolution increasing from $60 to $70 for the American cloak room men, whose duties it is to hang up coats and hats of members, shine their shoes, etc. The resolution was agreed to at once. Just as that result was announced Mr. Hughes realized that he had been dismayed by the committee to report the resolution with the recommendation that it should not pass. The next day he moved to reconsider the action, but his motion was laid on the table by a vote of 96 to 41, thus affirming the increase. Representative Grosvenor, of Ohio, gave a talk on the Philippines last night in All Souls' Church. His remarks were based upon observation made while a member of the Taft party. The speaker dwelt at length upon the orderly character of the Filipinos. Not once in the course of all the different affairs given in honor of the Taft party had he seen anything like dishevelment. In fact, he wished that some of the American statesmen who refer to the Philippines as "the home of heathenism" would visit them. Mr. Grosvenor the domestic trait in the Filipino, which he said, was a characteristic, and that he was always ready to defend his home and family. A fraud order has been issued by the Postoffice Department against the Rev. Isaac L. Walton, of Savannah, Ga. He charged with conducting for personal benefit the Independent Order of the National Industrial Council of Alaska, Fraternal, an organization of aliens. The fraud order was issued against Walton when in Washington in October, 1902. The Democracies, under James M. Griggs of Georgia, the new chairman of the national congressional committee, will make a vigorous campaign and the Republicans are preparing to mount a new campaign within a week or so, the Republicans will hold a caucus and a chairman will be elected and an organization perfected. New York—The William H. Baidwin, Jr., fund of $150,000 which is to be presented to the Tuskegee (Ala.) Normal Institute, has been completed, the net amount of the subscriptions being $150,196.74.
