INDIAN FIRST TO IRRIGATE HOW SHE ALWAYS KNEW JOHNNY'S LAST LITTLE WORD FOOT RACES OF TEPEHVANES American irrigation was old when Rome was in the glory of its youth. The ancient aqueducts and subterranean canals of South America, extending for thousands of miles, once supplied great cities and irrigated intense areas. Centuries before the ancient Norseman landed upon the bleak and inceptible shores of New England a large plains that the hot valleys of the far southwest. From the solid rock, with primitive tools of stone, they cut ditches and hewed the blocks for many-chambered palaces which they erected in the desert or on the limestone ledges of deep river canyons. These volceless rules, older than the men of many centuries, tell the story of charity, home-loving and semi-cultured people, concerning what life history brings to these palaces and in many miles of canals we may almost read the story of another Egypt—a people toiling under the burning sun of the desert, wearily and painfully executing the commands of an American Pharah. Coming down to a period less remote and only slightly less interesting, is the first page of modern American History. In the sixteenth century Compton, so the first great American explorer, to conquer the Grand Valley and journeyed as far north Kansas. In New Mexico he found a pastoral race dwelling in pueblos and practicing the gentle art of irrigation as had their forefathers, perhaps as All alone on the hilltop lived Hannah Jane Sprigginis, and a lonely life she led, this ancient maid. Much to the wonder of the good people of the village of Meddybeppens, she was never at a loss for news, and when neighbors called with stray bits of information, Hannah Jane always knew it long before it had been spread broadcast through the town. "Say, did we know Sam Whitten's Anne had a shock?" volunteered an excited female, dropping in on Hannah Jane early one evening, just as that peaceful soul was slipping her nightly brew of tea. "Taken at 2 c'clock this afternoon," calmly replied that lady, serenely, "their friend that know-nothing crituer of a Dr. Smith cause Dr. Brown didn't home, Go Sam Ketchum's Tabitha for a nurse." "For the land's sakes, Hannah, how'd you know it?" gasped the astounded caller. "Youn't had time to go down to the village and back since it happened." Hannah Jane shook her head in mysterious fashion. "You do beat all the getting news Johnny and his father were sitting around the reading table after a good dinner. Johnny was busy studying a spelling lesson in words ending in "ous", while his father read the evening paper. "O, papa," called Johnny. "What does billions mean; please?" "Why, it means 'sick', feeling bad, you know," said Johnny. "He was satisfied and bent over his book once more. Father began on his paper again, and everything was still for a few minutes. "Papa," called Johnny then. "Now, Johnny," said his father, "you must not bother paile while he is reading his paper. But now that you have interrupted me, what is it that you want to know?" "I just wanted to know what "plenteous" means, please, papa." "Now you ought to know what 'plenteous' means, Johnny. It means a whole heap, abundant—er or full of plenty, don't you see? Now go on with your studies and don't bother me with Gold is being mined in Ireland, incidental to the development of a mine of lead sulphide, commonly known as galena. The mine is in the Glentongh valley, a few miles from the market town of Cardonagh, County Donegal, says the New York Tribune. There is a predication, however, that the mining of this gold will interfere in the slightest degree with the emigration from Ireland, which has been so general for the last few years or that it will relieve the labor situation of the Emerald isle. The locality of the mine is near the northern extremity of Ireland, on the peninsula of Finnhowen. The galena deposit was worked in 1790 for silver and lead, but for some reason the enterprise was abandoned. Another attempt was made to work the mine in 1860, but this also was unsuccessful. There are always two parties running against each other, say the boys of one village against those of another; or the young men, or the married men, or the old men from one part of the country against those from another, says the Southern Workman. The boys of the village have their races. The men kick before them a wooden ball, about two inches in diameter, and the women follow in the same way a hoop of maguey leaves, which the foremost one throws with a stick. Neither party ever stops to pick up the ball or hoop, but both make it fly onward as they run. Should it fall into some of the interested ones, the swarms of interested ones will quickly return it to the path of the runners in ample time for the latter to make it fly on before them. far back as in the days of Abraham. Certainly their agricultural methods were in no wise different from those which prevailed in the days of the prophets. Even unto Utsis day their grain is gathered in grain willow baskets, is thrashed by the crampling of sheep and goats, and winnowed by the winds. Fields which were cultivated oats are still producing crops each year. Some of these thoughts came to the government engineers as they ran their lines of levels in the valley of Salt river in Arizona, and it seemed to them a proper task for the greatest nation on earth to restore once more the oases of verdure which the desert had long ago obliterated. During the last quarter of a century a crop-producing area of 10,000, the oases of Massachusetts has been wrestled from the desert. Irrigation canals long enough to span the earth twice and representing an outlay of $90,000,000 have been built. Every year this area returns a harvest valued at more than $150,000,000, and 2,000,000 people dwell in prosperity and contentment where only a short time ago the wilderness reigned. Uncle Sam is to-day the largest owner of the great American desert, no matter how it may be maintained worth stealing. For many years the sentiment has been growing that the government should make habitable this vast empire which is so great potentially. first," continued the neighbor, with an injured air. "How in time's sake do ye manage?" Hannah Jane meditated a moment, then beckoned to her guest, who was one of her oldest friends, and led her in solemn silence up the winding stairs that led to a turret chamber at the top of the house. This room had been made for her father, an old sea captain of the town, so that he could watch the vessels as they sailed into the harbor. From an ancient bureau in the corner of the room Hannah Jane drew forth something wrapped carefully in tissue paper. "Opery glasses," she explained briefly, as she took out her treasure from the numerous wrappings. "Nice Ellen sent 'em to me five years ago; and a great comfort they have been, too," she added feellng. "What I can make out with these optery glasses and, there's not much going on that I can not know." Failed this original being trumpetfully, who in this novel fashion kept herself well in touch with the rest of the world. foolish questions." Johnny was a little hurt and kept very still for some time, studying his lesson without looking up. Finally he began to twist around in his chair and clear his throat in an effort to attract his father's attention, but father was very deep in his paper, and did not look up. "Papa," said Johnny, timidly. Papa kept on reading, and made no answer. "Papa!" called Johnny, in a louder tone. Father crumpled his paper up and looked at Johnny hard. "Johnny" he said, severely. "I told you not to bother me with questions while I am reading. Now if you speak to me again, I shall have to send you out of the room." "Well, papa, can't I ask you just one little word?" "Yes, just one word, and, remember—this is the very last." "Well, papa, if I was full of apple ple, would I be pleased?" for lack of capital. Some months ago a Belfast man, who had practical experience in silver and lead mining in the United States, examined the locality. A number of assays were made of smelts from the mine, which showed an average of an ounce of gold a ton, 60 per cent of metallic lead and a variable quantity of silver. A mining lease was obtained from the earl of Shaftsbuffy, the owner of property, and a force of men was set up for cleaning out the old workings of the mining old age, and a smelter of the capacity to tons a day was contracted for. The output of lead, it is stated, is now paying the working expenses, though the amount of gold obtained is very small. Geologically speaking, the mine is a "tault," or fracture of the rock strata, in which was deposited the mineral containing the metals. The race courses were laid out on comparatively level, land no one knows how many hundreds of years ago, and generation after generation enjoys the sport on it. The track generally measures some eight or ten thousand feet. While the speed of the runners may not be phenomenal, their endurance is. It is not rare for a man to make twelve or fifteen circuits in a little more than three hours. Some years ago there died a man who would make twenty-seven circuits in a race lasting from noon till after sundown and indulge next day in a prolonged dance to celebrate his victory. The victor, of course, is honored and admired; otherwise he gets no reward, though his friends may be benefited by winning bets they have made on him. THE APPEAL. BRITAIN'S ELEPHANTS BRITAIN'S ELEPHANTS WEALTH OF THE EMPIRE IN THESE BIG BEASTS. What with the wealth of India and Africa Great Britain possesses more elephants than any other power in the world. The Indian elephant differs very considerably from the African in several points, notably in the size of the ears, which are much smaller than the African's. Again, the African has an archer forehead while that of the Indian is concave. While the Indian males are about ten feet at the shoulder the African males are a foot higher. The opportunity of Wales recently had the opportunity of seeing in the famous MacGregor timber yards at Rangoon to what a pitch of usefulness the elephant can be trained in moving large logs of wood. His intelligence at his work. AT WORK IN A TIMBER YARD. is extraordinary. An ordinary elephant can carry half a ton continuously on a level road. A native instructor sits on the back of each elephant and controls his movements, but really the sagacious creatures need little attention. As a mere figure in pageants the elephant plays a very conspicuous part in the receptions given to the prince and princess, notably at Jammu and Gwalior. Among the large and varied collection of wild animals, reptiles and birds brought back by Capt. Stanley Flower, of the British army, in his recent expedition to the Blue Nile first as regards importance and influence; three baby African elephants captured by Amy in the upper waters of the Blue Nile; these was presented by Capt. McMurdo, D. S. O., director of the slave trade department, and the other two were purchased. These elephants are from eight to ten months old and are rarely found so young in captivity, those now in Cairo being most probably the first ever brought there, only about half a dozen others being known to exist in the different zoological gardens in the world. Walking about the gardens in charge of their keeper Kocush, Zkiekhe and Dandy form a most attractive trio, particularly when they lift their large leaflike ears and by raising their little trunks to their ears they approach towards these same trunks into the pocket of the visitor in search of something tootheme. It is to be hoped that these fascinating babies may long continue to delight the visitors to the Ghizhe gardens, where they are now attracting much attention. GREAT SALT DEPOSITS. One of the Wonderful Resources of North Western Canadian Provinces. At first sight it would appear that the scene depicted is a winter one, with a river flowing past snow-covered banks, but what looks like snow is in reality the purest salt. It furnishes excellent table salt without further preparation. Some six feet under- heath it a coarser quality, similar to "Liverpool salt," is found. Springs of water running through this saltbed are surcharged with salt and deposit their residue in the form shown in the image. The background are underlain with the same salt, and the removal of the top soil to a depth of some three or four feet, a solid hill of salt is reached. Reporterial Memories.

Defective Page Broken to Drive in Harness by Edward Crossman of Ely, Minnesota Edward Crossman, of Ely, Minn., owns one of the oldest teams in America. He has always been in the unusual task of breaking a pair of moose drive in harness. In his burglar Mr. Crossman apinates as rapidly behind these animals as if drawn by a prancing span of mores. Ordinary reindeers have long figured in the mythical doings of Santa Claus, and are actually driven by the Laplanders, but the moose is a much larger and more representative of the deer family, and not be confused with the reindeer. These moose shown in the photograph were captured at Bear Island lake, a few miles to the southwest of Ely, three years ago. The mother had been killed by an Indian and a trapper in the vicinity, hearing his dog bark furiously, hurried to the spot where he found the two moose Crossman bought these calves from the governor and secured a permit from the governor to keep them in his possession. At first the moose didn't relish be犊ed up, but as they are young, they became accustomed to it much sooner than if they had been full-grown. Their antlers are now growing and, by the time the animals are five years of age, will be of large size. At first the problem of feeding them was no small one. When running wild they live on pond lily roots, leaves of trees or tender shoots of willow, and to get the lily roots it is very common to see them wading in the shallow water of their native haunts. At first Mr. Crossman fed them willow twigs and young birch, but this became quite a task, for they talked about three wagon loads a week. At hay, turnips and cabbage, and seen to enjoy the diet as much as the one to which they had before been accustomed. One of these moose will eat as much as two horses. They nibble at something most of the time except when lying down during the middle of the day. Each weighs about 700 pounds or thereabouts. When full-grown their shoulders will be higher than those of a horse. Their antlers will then add materially to their weight, often weighing from 50 to 60 pounds. The moose have a coarse brown hair. A FREAK CHICKEN. It Is Hard to Tell Whether It Is a Hen or a Duck. Policeman Joseph Lussier, of Willimantic, has a queer freak chicken. The question which perplexes the observer is whether the freak is a hen or a duck. The hen-duck was hatched last May, and it has always borne the eccentricities herewith described. His breed is the white Wyandotte. It has the head of a pullet and other characteristics, but its walk, posture, etc., are like the duck's. When walking its body assumes the upright position as in the picture. Its tall is short and stubby, and has that peculiar wag such as only the duck can give it, and its legs and feet resemble those of a duck, though the feet lack a web. When it tries to cackle it makes a sound which is seemingly a mixture of a cackle and a quack. It eats from the ground like a duck and drinks a great amount of water. As yet the freak has not laid an egg or essayed to swim, and these may determine later to which family it belongs. PUT MONEY TO GOOD USE Not Enough in the Office, So the Candidate Bought Himself a Farm. In a small Indiana town there is an officer designated as inspector of streets and roadways, who receives the munificent salary of $250 per year. There was a lively campaign for this small plum, no money, no other elections being near. The Democratic candidate was an old fellow by the name of Ezekiel Hicks, and it looked as though he would be successful, as a neat little sum had been subscribed and turned over to him as a campaign fund. To the astonishment of everybody, however, he was defeated. "I can't account for it," one of the Democratic leaders said, glomily. "With that money we should have won. How did you oust Ezekiel?" "Hum," Ezekiel said, slowly pulled his whisker, "yer see, that office only pays $250 a year salary, and I didn't see no money in payin' $200 to get the office, so I jest bought me a little truck farm instead."

GIANT BUILDING GIANT BUILDING It Will Be Thirty Stories High and Will Cost $3,250,000—To Be Located on Lower Broadway at Cortlandt Street. Giant among office buildings of the world, the City Investing Building company will tower above the great structures of lower Broadway, New York city. This latest product of the architect and builder's art is to be 30 stories high in its central part and 25 stories throughout the remainder. It will cover a ground area of 27,000 square feet at Broadway and Cortlandt Towering UNTO HEAVEN. landstreet street, surrounding the old Benedict building. The western part will cover the site of the Coal and Iron Exchange, at Cortlandt and Church streets, with a frontage in Cortlandt street of 209 feet and of 103 feet in Church street. The Broadway entrance will be in Nos. 165 and 167, and a main corridor 38 feet wide will run through to Church street, a distance of 315 feet. The cost of this pile will be more than $32,500. In line with the policy of Robert E. Dowling, president of the City Investing company, to give to tenants quick and abundant transportation facilities, the building will have 21 elevators. It is probable that the building will have an entrance to the McAdoo tunnel, which will come up to Church street, under Cortlandt street, and under the south side of that thoroughfare. This has not yet been decided upon. In style of architecture the building will be what is technically known as free Italian. The adoption of this type of architecture has given the architect, Francis H. Kimball, an opportunity to produce a structure whose massive appearance will be imposing.

FAITH OF COLLEGE GIRLS HUNTER'S PERILS IN AFRICA IN MACEDONIA AND TURKEY IN MACEDONIA AND TURKEY There recent arrest of a young woman for allied thefts from the Smith College dormitories at Northampton. Mass. calls attention to the attitude of college girls in the matter of safeguarding their belongings. There is an unwritten law among college girls that nothing belonging to them shall be under lock and key and they leave diamond rings blazing on their dressing tables and their pocketbooks peeking out of bureau drawers. If they miss a trinket or an article of apparel for a day or two they do not worry, arguing that Elizabeth or Genevieve or some other bosom friend has barely borrowed it. Sometimes a girl will miss an opera cloak and have no attempt to hunt it up until she has need of it herself. Scarfs and gloves and handkerchiefs are often lent in this same careless fashion. The girl it shows a mean suspicion of that college mates, as well as an unaccommodating spirit, to keep their valuables locked up. Room doors are almost invariably unlocked, and as the entrance door of the dormitory is always unlocked there is nothing to prevent a woman on robbery bent from ransacking half a dozen rooms in a few minutes. President Seeley has risen in chapel again and again and exhorted the Capt. Chauney Hugh Stegand of the British army has been tossed by a rhinoceros and nearly trampled to death by an elephant. On the first of these occasions the captain, accompanied by native hunters, was beating the jungles for big game twenty miles from Fort Mancey, in central Africa, when he, in advance of the men, started two rhinoceroses, which ran toward him. One he turned with a shot, while the other ran at him, knocked him down and then thrust his horn under his prostrate body and tossed him in the air some ten or twelve feet. This was a feat the rhinoceros was well equal to, being some two or three tons in weight, with proportioned height. Capt. Stegand was seen flying in the air above the tall grass by his followers. He manned it to fall on the flat of his back, and so had him held up with a deep wound in the chest above the heart, where the rhinoceros had lifted him, which took three weeks to heal. Vice Consul Bock of Nuremberg reports a new invention in the glass plate industry, concerning which he writes: "Should it really possess the advantages claimed, it would cause serious damage to the blowing glass plate industry in this district, where three-quarter glass plates are chiefly manufactured. So far two methods have been employed in the manufacture of crystal plate glass and mirror and window glass—namely, that of casting and blowing. The new method is the invention of Mr. Fourcault, a Belgian, who has sold his patent to the European syndicate of plate glass manufacturers for $85,000. This syndicate consists of German, French and Belgian manufacturers and one Bohemian factory. "Until now, in the making of window glass, the molten substance has been blown into cylinders by glassmakers' pipes and subsequently flattened, while in the making of plate glass the viscid Simultaneously with the Americans there appeared among the Moros the most fearful of all diseases, the Asiatic cholera, and straightway it was charged upon us.

The white men were in league with the Cholera Man, the Asiatic cholera, and straightway it was charged upon us. My few friends dropped away out of sight, whence they had come. Prowling hands, even lone Moros, beset the trails and camp, lying in wait and attacking with fury and bitterness lone sentinels and small parties. A single old datto, Alandug, stayed. From his seacast village he had looked wider upon the world, and was wiser than his fellows. He was a man of great ease saw for himself, our mortal terror of cholera whose cause we call germs, he. devil. He did not, however, understand why we were not dying like the Moros. I showed him the soldiers boiling their water, and told him that before drinking we thus drove the cholera forth from the water Writes H. N.

The whole domestic economy of Turkey seems to depend upon those this, with boards and sacking, they serve for shum dwellings in the towns. Cut up into plates they protect the sides of the better houses from the weather. They are used as water cans and kitchen pots. Your food, your water and even your bread taste of petroleum, which becomes to the fastidious traveler a sensuous symbol of the east. Nothing could illustrate better the poverty and slovenliness of oriental life." Macedonia, according to the same writer, does not place a very high value on the more good opinion of the civilized world. He says: "I once young women to keep their valuables locked up. The students look grave at his admonitions, and for a week there is a great jingling of keys and a careful stowing away of rings, bracelets, brooches and the allowance which has given her the end of the week such care becomes important and things are thrown around in any old way as before. Rings are slipped over a hatpin stuck in a pinchcushion, pocketbooks are deposited in the chafing dish, laces dangle over a corner of the mirror, watches tick placidly on the ptn trays, necklaces are draped around a perfume bottle and doors are kept wide open. When a college girl suffers from robbery she does not regard the matter very seriously at first, especially if the theft be of money. When the robberies become frequent she begins to think of dishonest servants or men thieves. When the culprit will be a woman the college girl is almost as much upset as the criminal herself; but it teaches her no lesson. Maybe for a month she will not leave her room without locking up, but at the end of the month she will argue that the theft has been apprehended, so that there is really no need to be so careful. three elephants after following their trail for a whole day in the tall grass. Two of the elephants were large, a male and a female. The third elephant was younger and smaller. The big elephants were tuskless, and the smaller one had tusks, but they were too small to be of value. So Capt. Stegand was going to let them move off undisturbed. However, the young elephant, after going a short way, changed his mind and returned and ran for the captain, who fired to stop the animal and hit him in the head. But the creature went on, making for a run in getting out of the way, stumbled over a fallen tree which the beasts had pulled down, and got among the branches. Then the elephant tried to kick him out with his feet and even passed over the body of the captain, the blood from his wounds falling on the man below. The captain, however was able to get hold of his rifle, which had fallen out of his hand in his stumble, and was handed to him by one of the men. He knocked the creature over with a shot. mass was cast from the pots and rolled. The new invention draws the molten substance from the pot and conducts it between rollers lying side by side.

To my surprise he never filinched at the statement, he swallowed it whole; this truth so hard of acceptance among wiser men found ready belief with the savage. Long afterward I knew why. I agreed with the Moro religious theory that all disobedience came from the outside into the body. Our theory and theirs, so different, yet the same, proved a first bond, something common between white man and brown. Alandug told the other Moros what a just theory the Americans had of the cholera, and how the awful disease had killed but few Americans. In short time my friends began to come back with him, bringing all the ills of the cholera to the white man in whose medical theories they had quickly acquired confidence.

When I expressed my horror, he replied by pouring out a tale which I confess staggered me—all the recent wrongs of his village—men carried away captive into slavery, the women treated brutally. Somehow, cabalability of censure ran dry, and I tried to suggest that such reprintis were a mistake, since they alienate the sympathies of Europe. "He replied that by murdering ten men who richly deserved it he had obtained ten rifles for the cause of liberty." Surely, I answered, the good opinion of the civilized world is worth more than ten rifles. He smiled bitterly and then, mimicking my tones, impulses laudably: "What was the good opinion of your civilized world worth to the Armenians?" I was silenced." HAVE YOU READ THE APEAL? ST.

SATURDAY, MAY 5, 1906 SENATOR JEFF DAVIS The Northern newspapers seem to be so perplexed over the election of Jeff Davis of Arkansas to the United States Senate, but there is no mystery in the matter. The Senator Clark and Jeff conspired together to down Jones and Berry and they both have been working for that purpose day and night, weekday and Sunday ever since. Their main reliance was upon the hill-billies, as Jeff was a past master in jellyting them. How extremely demure he must be judged from the declaration made in time of his speech, that he had drank pot-liquor with the "uggers" until you could hear it slosh. And one of the charges made against him was that he had agang of Negroes drinking and dancing with him in a white passenger car. The name he hore was also a great leverage among the hill-billies. No doubt, he is the original Jeff Davis, or close to him; and in fact he claims that the latter is actually the case. The "New South" simply means that the hill-billies are in the saddle, and intend to down all the "high collared" hills.

THE MOB SPIRIT The Washington Post in discussing "The Mob Spirit," has this to say: "And in this connection it is not an answer to say that a responsibility rests on the Afro-American race. The Afro-American can do more to prevent lynching than all the mobs ever assembled. Whether true or not, it is universally asserted that Afro-American criminals, fugitives from justice, never appeal in vain for harbor to those of the crime makes no sort of natural. Perhaps this is only natural. Possibly the noble in it; but it works a great harm to the Afro-American everywhere." We propose to change a word or two in the foregoing just to see how it will sound. Whether true or not it is universally asserted, BY THE COSSACKS, that Jewish criminals, fugitives from justice, never appeal in vain for harbor to those of their own race and the nature of the crime makes no sort of difference. Whether true or not, it is universally asserted, BY THE TURKS, that Armenian criminals, fugitives from justice never appeal in vain for harbor to those of their own race and the nature of the crime makes no sort of difference. Nor does the race of the victim matter much difference as shown by the fact that thousands of dollars are being collected to aid in the defence of the men charged with lynching the late governor of Idaho.

Referring to the so-called "taxation" this assertion is as follows: the taxation is robbed, robs the native of his right to the free use of the land and its products, and on the other compels him to labor as a serf under the name of taxation, while for the most part practically nothing is being done for the good of the native thus taxed. All nations are not the only people who are thus maintaining slavery in Africa; the Portuguese are practicing what is virtually the same system, as is proved by the testimony of reliable witnesses. "But retribution, tho' it cometh late 14 sure as death—impaired as fate." A Georgia newspaper thus expresses itself: "If the Negro is to be educated he should be educated along right lines with the full knowledge of the fact that he is to remain in a certain position in country long as he lives. Certain avenues are open to him and certain avenues are closed. It is useless to educate him for the avenues of life that are closed to him and that will remain so." The Georgia editor is seemingly utter unconscious of the fact that the African-American in the United States is conducting schools, colleges and societies. He has a good number of stores banks M.

RAISE LESS HELL AND COTTON. A Georgia journal says: "There are thousands of the children of white people in this state who are not in the schools. They are in the fields in large numbers, toiling, while the majority of the Afro-American children in pollinating that are kept up with white man's Although the case is somewhat overstated, the evil is enormous. Mr. Carnegie and other millionaires are spending large amounts for educational purposelittle is the great defect about their plan is that they are good for the greatest number. What the South needs above all things is a good effective system of common schools. Those Afro-American children need to be kept in school and the white children need to be taken out of the field and sent to school. Georgia needs to raise less hell and cotton and more intelligent citizens. Speaking of Natal of which Zulu land is a part, the New York Times says: Among these blacks there has appeared in the last few years a religious movement known as Ethiopianism, said to be organized by blacks from the United States, and having, for its chief object the realization of the dream of "Africa for the Africans." The wicked flee when no man punish. The plunderers in South Africa are scared to death because the denomination of the United States includes monarchies to Africa. But that they are not too ladly scared to lie very expertly, the foregoing extract shows. Recently Dr. Searle Harris of the University of Alabama talked with the President about the ravages of consumption among the Afro-Americans of the South and expressed the fear that become extinct in this country. This would be of immense importance if it were anything more than the reckless gab of a man so blinded by prejudice as to be utterly incapable of a fair judgment. He adduced no proof, whatever of any of his statistics. The statistics are to be found. And the plain truth is that there are no such statistics in existence, even in regard to the Afro-Americans of the South, much less to the whole race in Amer- The awful calamity at San Francisco shows that we Americans need to learn a great deal about building and protecting big cities. For many years the underwriters have considered San Francisco a big task, but the Californiaians were too busy keeping the Chinese out to remedy the evils that existed. According to the descriptions of those who know him, King Leopold of Belgium is a shabby reproduction of Nero, and there is nothing incredible in the reports of his doings in the Congo Free State. Mr. Bourke Cochran asserts that one of the great political parties is made up of uneducated and the other of lunatics. Bourke Cochran is duty by not explaining which is which. WITH THE PHYSICIAN MAN OF HVMOR THOUGHT MIMIC ACTION REAL WHERE HE NOTICED CHANGE CHICKENS DISCOVER GOLD MINE Let us see how much actual cash there is in the pocketbooks of various nations and understand by comparison how rich we really are. The total stock of money in gold, silver and uncovered paper in the whole world amounts to in round figures to $12,000,000,000. The United States the total stock of money amounts to about $2,000,000,000. Hence, we have in our own purse one-sixth of all the cash of the globe. These figures—and this is a fact which must be emphasized—do not represent the wealth of nations. Far from it. The figures represent merely the available hard cash. Divide this hard cash of the earth among the inhabitants thereof and each man, woman and child would have $10. Divide this hard cash of the United States among a people thereof and each of us would have $25. It is one respect in which the people of a foreign country would have the better of us, individually. Were each nation to divide its cash among its own people each living human being in France would have $25, more than each person in our country, the smaller circumstances. Meanwhile, the smaller Britain would give each Briton only Old Dr. Chase of Andover, VT, was of storing character, but somewhat eccentric. He sometimes had business with a Mr. Field of Springfield which took them to a distance. Once after a long drive they arrived at the doctor's home too late for the regular dinner, but a lunch for the two was placed upon the table. Mr. Field, of course, expected to be asked to share it, but the doctor, without a word, drew up and fell to eating, soon remarking, however: "When folks see on the table and don't know enough to up and eat, I say let them go hungry." Some time after the two men were again at the doctor's under similar circumstances. This time the doctor was detained outside some time after the meal was ready. Mr. Field, not wishing to be caught again, drew up to the table, and was well on with The late Joseph Jefferson used to say that his career, came very near being nipped in the bud in a small western town. He at that time was a member of a small pioneer company which progressed by means of three "bull teams" from one mining camp to another. They were always heartily received by the miners and cowboys, who readily paid the five gold required to witness their performance. Mr. Jefferson was the traditional melodramatic villain, and in the third act was supposed to kidnap "the child." The supposed mother, hearing its cries, rushes upon the scene just as he is about to escape, and fires a fruitless shot from a revolver. Upon this particular occasion all had gone well until this scene was reached, and the audience, many of whom had In the days of Democratic strength in New Hampshire the Patriot of Concord, under the editorial heads of Butterfield and Hill, and later William Butterfield, was sustained by the rank and file of that political faction to such a degree that its presence in the households had been noted from generation to generation, and as its readers in various towns visited Concord it was regarded as a sacred duty to the people. Butterfield field was a very tall man, very sparse in build, and of a deathly pale countenance. About 1870 the Patriot passed from the hands of Butterfield into those of Col. E. C. Bailley. He was the very opposite in appearance to his predecessor, being of medium stature, very stout, and of a decidedly florid countenance. Oxford students have lately adopted the fad of going mountainaineering at midnight on the roots of the college buildings. One of these adventurers was recently caught on the roof of the house occupied by Dr. Spooner, from whose funny mistakes in speaking comes the term "Spoonerism." Dr. Spooner is reported to have said "shoving leopard" when he meant to have said "loving shepherd." Already, no doubt, he is credited with rejoicing that, in the case of the student who was captured on his house, he had "otted him on the spoon" Dr. Spooner once made a disastrous confusion of the names of two undergraduate, Bell and Hollam, and of "Hell" and "Bodlam." And it is said that he once wasted hours at Greenwich asking for the "Dull Man" inn, when what he really wanted was the "Green Man" at Dulwich. Proper Care of Cattle Lice on cattle indicate lack of attention and poor feed. Grease of any kind will destroy lice on cattle, but grease should not be used if it can be avoided. First wash the animal with kerosene emulsion and follow with clear water. When the skin is dry dust every portion of the body with a mixture of a peck of carobate of lime and a bushel of clean, dry dirt. If a single animal is infested with lice the others will soon be in the same condition unless remedies are used as preventives. Guadalajara, Mexico. — Chickens were responsible for the discovery of a placer which has just been sold here for $150,000. The placer is known as the "Virgen de guadalaupe," and is situated between the towns of Tapalapa and San Gabriel, this state. Several months ago men in the employ of Albert Palos, a merchant of Tapalapa, found grains of gold in the crops of fowls purchased from Mexi- $18; in Germany the cash per capita would amount to only $17, Russia $8 and Japan $3, while in Cuba each person would get a $2 bill. $10,000,000,000 in cash $2,000,000,000 are right in the United States. And one-twenty-fifth of all the cash in gold in the world is stored in New York alone. This gold, this symbol and synonym of wealth, comes, like all things else, from the ground, from mines. Here, again, we lead all nations for our wealth, as the third of all the gold of the earth, as we produce one-third of all the silver. Our chief contributors to this product are the mines of Colorado, South Dakota, California, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Arizona, New Mexico and Alaska. Consider merely Cripple Creek! As under a magician's wand, that region has in fourteen years developed until it now covers at least 130 square miles with many cities and towns connected one with another by rail. Here is an darnest, sober person engaged in the business of extracting precious metals from the mountainous areas some years, of $25,000,000. So much better than man in securing the raw material for money—Leslie Weekly. his dinner when the doctor entered the room. Said Mr. Field: "When folks see food on the table and don't know enough to sit up and eat, I say let them go without." But the doctor could take a joke as well as give one. He was often badly off with rheumatism he was badly late one very stormy night to a distance to see a man who already owed him a large bill. He got there with great difficulty, but did not dare attempt to return, as the roads were badly washed. The bed he occupied was more than damp, being under a leaky roof, and he was sure it would be almost, if not quite, the death of him. But, strange to tell, his rheumatism was better from that night, and the doctor, being the man, entered on J. Jones' with this little C. To curing my rheumatism, $10." never before see any kind of theatrical performance, sat as if spell bound. At the crack of the mother's revolver, however, the spell was rudely broken. "By heaven, miss she" missed a red sherdin miner in the front row shotten, drawing his own "six-shooter" and leaping to his feet. "Round to the back door and head him off 'fore he can git a hoss, boys!' he yelled, and following him, half the audience stamped for the exit. The excitement was finally allayed by the "mother" and the villain's appearing hand in hand before the curtain, and the manager's explanation of the situation. When the performance had been concluded, the audience insisted on paying another admission price and having an immediate repetition from beginning to end—Success Magazine. Upon one occasion, when the writer was engaged upon the Patriot, one of the visitors from Rumney called at the sanctum, explaining his purpose, place of residence and scores of years the paper had been in the family. As he sat conversing and answering questions as regards family, crops and markets, Col. Bailey entered, and was introduced to the stranger as the "editor of the Patriot," who wrote the numerous argumentative and virile articles which warmed the blood of Rumney's Patriot. Col Bailey soon withdrew, having been closely studied by the visitor, who was about to leave, when a parting inquiry, "Do you find many changes in Concord since you were last here?" was met with, "Yuas, a great many; but there's the d—dest change in Bill Butterfield."

Says Hurrah for People of St. Paul. To My Friends:— Through the medium of THE AP EPEAL which has gratuitously and soably championed my candidacy during the recent campaign, I desire to express as best I can in this limited space the deep appreciation and satisfaction which I feel for the very success of the campaign, support given me in the candidacy for the Assembly. My name does not appear among the list of the elected, to secure the result attained on last Tuesday—19080 votes polled for me, about 80 of which are estimated to have been Afro-American votes), indicates strenuous and uniting efforts by the people of St. Paul. To interest close on to 10,000 people in one man out of the eighteen seeking the same position in this recent contest. W. T. FRANCIS. meant no small amount of labor and sacrifice of time and comfort on the part of the faithful men who assisted me from first to last. And the result is most gratifying to me, as I am sure it cannot fail to be to you. To the big committee we organized, movement of the impulses did so well that the success we attained; to each individual worker who rendered service by interesting another voter; to each man who cast his vote for me on last Tuesday; to Mr. Orrie Hall who first conceived the idea of entering an Afro-American school; to Mr. who so ably championed my cause; and last but not least, to the noble women of St. Paul who took up the work with a will and purpose and vim that meant success in itself, and to whose efforts no small part of the handsome vote I received is to be attributed, since I express my earnest desire to help the students who would have desired a seat in the Assembly of St. Paul, still more do I appreciate the united efforts of my race in this contest, and the splendid manifestation of the high regard in which I am held by the citizens here as evidenced by the votes which for I take an honest pride in asserting, say, Hurrah for the People of St. Paul. Truly and Gratefully yours W. T. Francis. To My Patrons. The patrons of the Colonade Dancing school are hereby notified that the school will take a vacation until Wednesday night, July 4th, when a grand opening soiree will be given to which all former patrons will be duly invited.

The people of St. Phillips Mission are making strenuous efforts to improve their church building; they hope, if possible to raise money to do this, not being compelled to solicit individual One of the methods they will try will be to encourage race talent to appear before the people of St. Paul. St. Agnes Guild is most fortunate in being able to inaugure this policy by securing the services of Mr. Clarence H. St. Agnes, the President of the Washington Conservatory of Music, Washington, D. C., who has kindly consented to appear under their auspices at Park Congregational church Holly Ave, and Mackubin St., Thursday eve, May 24th, at 8 p.m. As the policy of the future is to be determined, the nature it is to be hoped that lovers of race talent will show their appreciation by their support.

Those who will assist in the program are: Mr. G. H.

Mr. Lafayette Mason, of Minneapolis, accompanist. This galaxy of talent forms a combination which cannot be surpassed and all lovers of high class music sure will not miss the opportunity to hear. Mr. White is director of the string department of Washington Conservatory of Music. He gave a private recital at the White House upon the special invitation of President and Mrs. John F. K. Prof. S. Coleridge Taylor, the eminent composer at the latter's first appearance in America, attendance 10,000. He appeared in New York City twice before audiences of 5,000 each.

(None genuine without my signature) Charles Ford Plant 78 Wabash Ave., Chicago, Ill. Agents warranted or my witness DREAMERS HAVE NO MEMORY. Why Nothing Surprises the Sleeper in His Wanderings. No one is ever surprised in a dream. A man dreaming is at one moment bathing in the sea, and at the next moment soaring in a balloon; but the sudden and inexplicable change does not surprise him. Nor is he surprised to meet in the flesh friends long dead; nor is he surprised to find himself doing deeds that really are beyond him, as winning the love of notable beauties, or knocking out champion heavyweights. The reason is that dreamers have no memory. In real life to be pursued through the streets by a lion would be astonishing; but this accident would be accepted in a dream as horrible, but quite commonplace, the memory not being there to say that it is unheard of for lions to pursue one in the cities. In the same way, in dreams, men are not surprised to find themselves ballooning because they don't remember that they were never up in a balloon before, and they are not surprised to find themselves conversing with dead people, because they don't remember that these people are dead. TUNNELS OF WELBECK ABBEY. Estate of Duke of Portland Completely Honeycombed. Welbeck, the Duke of Portland's residence, has the most unique entrance of any house in the world, for it is nothing more or less than a subterranean passage. On passing through the gates the visitor is conducted into a yawning tunnel, through which the daylight filters by means of great bulbs of glass let into the roof. This tunnel is wide enough for two carriages to pass abreast. As is well known, the late duke scrupulously shunned his fellow-creatures, and he built this grim underground gallery in order that he might go backwards and forwards without being seen. The whole of the estate is undermined with tunnels, which branch off in every direction from the abey, and each has its own secret means of entrance and exit, while fifteen of them have their termini in lodges whose rooms also are built underground, and which can only be opened with the duke's master-key. Mirror Better Than Medicine A ward patient in Roosevelt hospital grew gradually weaker without any apparent reason. "She's fretting herself to death about something," said the nurse. "If she would confine in me I think she would get better." By and by the patient did open her mind and heart. "If I could only see myself, she wailed, 'I'd feel different. I know I must look like death or you'd let me have a looking glass.' It was against the rules to supply patients in that ward with mirrors, but the nurse, recognizing the gravity of that particular case, smuggled in a small hand glass. The result was miraculous. "Why, dear me, said the sick woman, 'I don't look half so bad as I supposed I did.' And from that hour she began to improve.—New York Sun. Marked Stationery. Just a few very exclusive people have tried it—the mother-of-pearl marked stationery. The idea is so extremely luxurious that only the rich have been able to indulge in this vagary of fashion. It goes with the taste that demands strawberries out of season and American Beauties when they are $15 a dozen. This monogram is made entirely of exquisite mother-of-pearl and is so affixed to the top of the stationery that it cannot be taken off by the roughest handling. It is so attractive that the temptation is very great to indulge in it, and already several Philadelphians use the mother-of-pearl trimmings on their stationery.—Philadelphia Record. Proof of Puny Ancestors The kaiser has been trying on suits of medieval armor lately, and he has discovered that they were meant for smaller men than the average modern German, so he concludes that the stature of the race is increasing. His discovery and conclusion coincide with those of other men, and indeed in the suits of armor which one sees in collections here and abroad any "girthy citizen" would feel "cribbed, cabined and confined." Whether the human race has grown much toward heaven, it has certainly grown out toward the fence, as the honesty saying has it.—New York Mall. An Ideal Womanhood: Above all other things, a woman who would be charming must possess a true and noble heart, full of love and sympathy for her fellow beings, and an intelligent mind, capable of seeing matters from more than one standpoint. Any fair one thus endowed by nature undeniably has within herself the possibilities for ideal womanhood, for from these characteristics spring the many little virtues which make a woman loved, admired and needed by those around her, says Woman's Life. No Words Wasted. Some amusing instances of laconic correspondence are given in Notes and Queries. Gen. Sir Robert Boyd was remarkable for the brevity of his dispatches. Whilst governor of Gibraut, he is said to have written to his agent, Mr. Browne, in England, for his own private stores in three words: "Browne—beef—Boyd." The reply which accompanied the stores was equally laconic: "Boyd—beef—Browne." Customers Do Not Kick A mule by any other name would kick just as hard as "Maud" does. The same fabric with any other name would wear just as long as Saxony-Cheviot. But you know and we know that when you buy Saxony-Cheviot that it will wear until the proverbial cows come home—that it will never shine—that it will retain its "press" longer than ordinary fabric—that it is just about the most dressy fabric that could be put into a $30 suit. That's the price we ask for a made-for-you dress. Lideen & Co. Tailors, 104 4th St. WORD OF MOHAMMEDAN ORIGIN. Term "Kaffir" is Applied to All Unbelievers. Very curious has been the history of the word "kaffir." The French explorers who have been opening up the Sudan and Sahara find that they are called kaffirs by the Mohammedans, while Sir Henry Rawlinson once said that the loveliest oriental lady he had ever seen was a kaffir slave at Kabul. When she had loosened her golden hair she could cover herself completely as with a vell. This name of kaffir is as world-wide as Islamism, for it is the name of "unbeliever" applied by true Mohammedans to those that refuse the faith. The Portuguese found it applied to the negroes of East Africa by their Arab predecessors and handed it on to the Dutch and to the English. The kaffir slave at Kabul belonged to one of those black-clad mountain tribes in the heart of Afghanistan who till 1895 defied their Moslem neighbors and on their dizzy precipices gloated on their idolatry. These Afghan kaffirs claim to be descended from the Greeks who came with Alexander in his conquest of the east. This Not in Alaska, But in Flanders Some Record Winters. In 806 the Rhone was frozen over. In 1138 the Po was frozen from Cremona to the sea. In 1234 loaded wagons crossed the Adratic in front of Venice. In 1205 all the rivers in France were frozen over. In 1224 it was passable from Denmark to Lubec and Dantzic on the ice. In 1334 all the rivers of Province and Italy were frozen; at Paris the frost lasted two months and 20 days. In 1468 it was necessary to break up the wine in Flanders with hatchets in order to serve it out to the sailors. In 1544 the same became necessary in France. In 1594 the sea was frozen from Marselles to Venice. In 1667 the Sine was entirely frozen over. In 1767 the Seline was frozen for thirty-five successive days. In 1709 the Adratic and the Mediterranean, from Marselles to Genoa, were frozen. In 1716 shops were erected on the Thames. Guilty of Unconscious Profanity A leading football player of a few years ago, who is now in business in this city, was as careful of his conduct off the field as he was aggressive on the field. He was captain of the eleven in his senior year and his friends were shocked more than once at the vigorous supply of profanity that he turned on in the football practice when things did not go to suit him. Finally he was requested by the faculty to side track the swearing. He was amazed at this action on the faculty's part, for he declared that he was utterly unconscious of the fact that he had offended. His character was such as to leave no doubt that he spoke the truth. Even after the faculty warning he sometimes broke out—New York Sun. Broadmoor: Insane Artist There was a man named Daddy, some of whose pictures I expect will be exhibited in a short time in London. He showed extraordinary power, and if he had not become insane he would have rivaled, if not outdistanced, Watts. He only recently died at the Criminal Lunatic Asylum at Broadmoor. He painted many pictures, a number of which were sold; but it was thought by the government that it should improve that these pictures should be sold in open market; and the superintendent of Broadmoor therefore allowed him to paint the walls, which he continued to do in a very elaborate way.—Dr. Savage, quoted in Guy's Hospital Gazette. Diagnosis of Headache. "There are more than fifty kinds of headache," said a physician, "and sufferers from the more common forms may cure themselves by locating the cause and treating themselves accordingly. The more frequent forms are a dull pain across the forehead, due to dyspepsia; a pain in the back of the head, due to the liver; a burning pain in both temples, due to malnutrition; an ache on the top of the head, as though a weight pressed on the skull, due to overwork; an ache between the brows, just above the base of the nose, due to the eye strain." Repentance A teacher in trying to explain to her scholars the meaning of repentance, used this illustration: "Suppose a bad boy had to steal an orange, and his good mother should catch him with it and take him by the hand gently and tell him how wicked it is and how very grieved she was, don't you think, now, that this little boy ought to feel sorry." One of the scholars eagerly replied. "Yes, mum." "And why, Marmaduke?" "Cause he hadn't eaten the orange befo' his mo cutch him and tuck it away from him."—The Tatler. Why An Old Bachelor "I have not married so I may have a quiet life," said the bachelor. "Had I married a good wife I would have been afraid to lose her; a bad one, I would have been unhappy. Had I taken a poor girl we would have lived wretchedly; a rich one, and she would have had cause to taunt me with her money. Had she been ugly I could not have loved her; beautiful, and I would have been eternally jealous. Therefore, I have not married, and yet life is a nuisance."
