At the Heel of the D. A. and B. PRECOCIOUS CHILD BY F. H. LANCASTER. (Copyright, 1966, by Daily Story Fub. Co.) Walking east through Chestnut street, Brand had passed Independence hall and the custom house, and now stopped at a corner. A block or so to the south lay the freight depot of the D. A. & B. railroad, and also the office of the man who had sent for him. Brand was not quite sure that he was in any hurry to see this man. While he was himself a product of the twentieth century commemorator, the still young, and he was in love with a girl he had ideals; moreover, he believed that he had a few ideals himself where honesty and fair play were concerned. I. Brand had been positive about his position on such fine drawn questions, he would not have had to stop at the corner. As it was, he did stop to think it over, forgetting that Independence hall was already behind him, had been behind him ever since he became second assistant freight agent with a yearning for promotion. And promotion was the biggest word in aisles not only because he was in love with a man who father recognized the value of promotion other values—but because his yearning was fast becoming a keen hunger for the high places. If Matthews wanted to see him about what he thought he wanted, it might mean an ugly squall in the prospects dawning on his horizon. It is one thing to shut your eyes and ears and say soothingly to your innom卑 self: "All right, all right"; it is another thing to stand up before a jury of your peers and say clearly: "I hear it is right." Brand, pausing, bounded in these things—then he walked on southward to meet the man waiting for him in the freight agent's office. "You wanted to see me?" he said, easily. "Yes." Mathews pushed aside some schedules, clapped both hands on the arms of his chair, and swung round, "I am instructed to send a man from this office to testify before that committee. I am going to send you; you are up on the rebate laws, and you'll know how to testify. You'll get your passes and leave to-morrow, and Chidse will take care of you when you get there." He swung back to his desk, picked up a tariff sheet, and added: "It is a splendid chance; the D. A. & B. never forgets a friend. Go in and win." And Brand thanked him and walked out. It was true that he knew all about rebates, also true that he knew nothing good of them, but he knew that he had been selected because he would just know what not to know—and that the D. A. & B. would reward him for his ignorance. But Brand was not yet ready to admit that he had been bought. He would go to Washington and look over the ground—and he would not say anything to her about it until he came back. Brand went aboard the car, feeling genially sure that he would do the right thing by the D. A. & B. and everybody else. He meant, moreover, to have a double seat to himself as a deadhead should, but in this last he was disappointed. The train was crowded and he had to seep with a mild, chin-wind, little man, who smelled of good tobacco, and who politely tried to take up no more room than was necessary in the seat he had secured before Brand cans fn. "Going far!" Brard asked. He was always ready to be civil. "Only to Washington, sir," the other answered, and then, as though feeling this rather curd, added: "I just ran up to Philadelphia for the day." "Well, Brard, kindly, stooping from his heights, 'I'm bound for Washington myself.'" "Yes? the little man said, politely, and then with leisurely convictions and utterly without heat: 'Well, sir, there will be a good many men going to Washington this week. To accomplish nothing, sir. To be brushed and gnats that may hum but cannot sting. Cannot sting, sir." Brard looked alert: "You mean the committee?" "Yes, sir; the committee that is going to put the railroads on a feather bed, sir." "You think that the railroads have a good case?" "No, sir; they have no case; they have a certainty, a dead certainty, sir." Brand felt an unexplained relief. His testimony might not be needed. I considered the little man's emotional summing up and said cheerfully: "I suppose you are for the railroads." "On the contrary, sir, I am against them heart and hand." "Why? You think that they do not play fair? You must admit that railroad men understand their business better than outsiders." The other waved this aside with a slight motion of a very thin hand. "They are not gentlemen, sir. Not gentlemen," he replied, with perfect quietude. Brand was astonished. He had heard all sorts of charges made against the railroads, but—"What part of the country are you from?" he asked, abruptly. "From the south, sir. The cost of chartering a car has been recently jumped from $50 (o $100). A syndicate of small ships asked me to come on and see if anything could be done about it. I told them nothing could be done. I said: 'Gentlemen, a man may be tried justly by a jury of his peers; he can never be tried justly by himself." "Still," Brand caught up quickly, "you came on." "At my own expense, sir," the other returned, gently, "at my own expense." Brand took the reproof with a protest: "Times are changing," he said, briefly. "They are; yes, sir; in a way times are changing, very fast. But, sir, there never was, and there never will be a time that will refute the saying: 'The public is an ass and the sharpest raides rite it.' The ass brays sometimes, and dickens sometimes, but the rural sides and so gentleman, sir, added the old man, namely: "no gentleman ever rides an ass." Brand winced at the covert thrust. "Well," he said, brusquely, "the gentleman is going out of fashion. What we ask of a man to-day is: how much money you have you made? And if he can't answer that question satisfactorily, may the Lord have mercy on his soul." "And if he can answer it satisfactorily," the other took up, with quiet humor, "you infer that he has no soul left for the Lord to bestow mercy upon? Pardon me, but, I think you are mistaken. I think a large percent of our business men are honest gentlemen. This talk about universal corruption is cant, sir. Allvereal to you, when a man begins to tell you that men are rogues, set him down for a ready-made rascal, sir. A ready-made racal. And having paused to see whether or not Brand had any resentment to indulge, the old gentleman made courteous excuse and retired to the smoker. Brand had no nenrestent to indulge, in fact he had not caught the flair vor of the fine, old-vintaged insult he had swallowed. "Old fogy,"尼 reflected. "But I guess he's right about the railroads having stacked the cards. The chances are that the only instructions that Chidsey will have for me will be to come chasing home. And I will have proved my good will to serve—But Chidsey had other orders. A man from Minnesota had been making visible What the D. A. & B wanted he straightforward testimony to prove that it had not beer discriminating against the small shipers, and Brand, as first assistant freight agent, was to get in this testimony. "But it's ridiculous," he said, rebeliously to Chidsey. "You know as well as I do how it is done." "That's nothing," Chisley said cheerfully. "You are a D. A. & B. man, and you've got to stand by the D. A. & B. if you expect the D. A. & B. to stand by you. Go in and win." And having calculated the profit and loss, he went in—and won. He was a smart litter; and his testimony was all that the D. A. & B. could have asked for. When he stepped down he saw recognition of his ability in all men's faces; and in the recognition lay mirrored to home in Walnut street, with servants whose mere names he could not remember; autos and yachts and count-ry-seats; and everywhere mahogany and brass, mahogany and brass. Suddenly his gaze snapped and shrank back. It had encountered the slow of a mild little man with chin whiskers, to take up no more room than was necessary. For an instant Brand seemed to hear a quiet voice saying: "A ready-made rascal, sir, A ready-made rascal," then he lifted his head and walked on, seeing long vistas of mahogany and brass, mahogany and brass. Anything for an Excuse. After having suffered several days from an aching tooth, during an exceedingly cold spell of weather, Tommy finally summoned the courage age and went to a dentist. After a surprisingly short time he returned home. "Did you have the tooth pulled, dear?" asked the mother. "No," answered Tommy. "I didn't have to get it pulled." "No, he didn't say so.

SATURDAY, JUNE 23, 1906 THE PRODIGY IS ONE THAT SHOULD BE PITIED Fortunately Prodigies Are the Exception—The Wonderfully Brilliant Child Too Often Becomes the Dull Adult—Athletics, Batter than Too Much Study, Will Prepare the Boy for the Rougher Realities of Life—Mental Fruit Out of Season Is Not Worth Much—Dangers of Pushing the Child. BY MARGARET E. SANGSTER. (Copyright, 1966, by Joseph B. Bowles). Fond parents as everybody knows, are much in the habit of imagining that their children are cleverer and brighter than ever children were since the world began. Other people may find the children tresme and disagreeable, but in the eyes of doting parents they are without a peer, and their sayings and doings are related with infinite relish whenever anybody can be found who has leisure and patience to listen. Preocious children fortunately for themselves and for the race, are the exception rather than the 'rule. A normal child, healthy and sturdy, is seldom preocious. Of course, there are on record notable instances of children who manifested remarkable abilities, but at a very early age, and some of them did not belts their infant promise. Lord Macaulay is a case in point. When he was somewhere near the milestone of his fourth birthday, he read incessantly and lying on the hearth rug, at full length, with face intent on a book, he heard little that was going on around him. On one occasion, having the misfortune to be badly burned, this unchild-like child remarked, to a sympathizing friend Macaulay grew up to be not merely an eminent historian and man of letters but a man of universal knowledge, of profound public spirit, and of notable loyalty to kith and kin. Though a prid in childhood, he was not a pedant in maturity. Of Robert Murray McClergy, a famous Scotch clergyman, it is gravely set down by his biographer, that he had mastered the Greek alphabet at the age of three. I myself have a friend, a woman of brilliant powers, earned a scholarship, who was taught by Hebrew by a very learned father borne to learn English, so that as a little thing of six she read the Hebrew Scriptures, while she did not yet know the English alphabet. Her early precocity did her no harm. Generally speaking, considering the importance of a sound mind in a sound body, it is not worth while to push children forward intellectually at the possible expense of future health and vigor. The brain if unfairly treated may develop so rapidly that its power of mind assimilation will be early exhausted the undoubtedly brilliant child become in need of medicine, dull and commonplace. The girl who make a clean sweep of all the prizes in sight during school days, are often never heard of again. Some of our most conspicuous statemen, authors and commanders, on sea and land, made no show whatever during the days of their training, and were graduated in the lowest ranks of their class. A besetting sin of American parents is an almost insane insane in behalf of children and a desire to push children as fast as they can out of children found into the turmoil of the arena. Dilem the people are hurried from the craile to the kindergarten, from the kindergarten, and on so through the several grades, and frequently to the disadvantage of the children. I heard the other day of a young doctor who matriculated at the medical school when he was just 16, an age at which no youth is fit to undertake the seri study of medicine, and indeed at which competence sufficiently matured to enter college. We are in frantic to get our boys and girls where they may either earn their own livelihood, or in some way compete with others who are breadwinners in the crowded marketplaces of the land. A preocious child is very likely to hear so much about his talents and his attainments that he will look down condescendingly on the neighbor who is not nearly so far advanced and still has a pronounced liking for marbles, kites, balls and robust games. A boy ought to know how to play. Play is far more worth while for him than work in the first ten years of life, the advantage of athletic sports, of football, baseball and basketball, lies in the fact that the sturdiness and pluck they demand, prolong the play-time of the youth. The preocious child is seldom or never a good catcher or pitcher or quarterback or half-back; he is on the contrary, likely to survey with the boyish pride taken by athletes in their triumphs, and to consider the time spent in the open air rather a waste than the opposite. His energies are bent on acquiring more and still more culture from the world of literature. Often one sees the strange anomaly when such a youth has grown up, of a man whose information is prodigious, while his knowledge of available tools is academic. In other words, it is not the youth who has grown the most rapid strides during his training, but the requisite training to hold in and do well in the rougher realities of every-day existence. Another point to be noted is that everyone fights shy of the infant prodigy. Pares trot him out and compel him to show his faces, to the boredom and disgust of friends and acquaintances. Fond mothers little dream of the dismay and the secret amusement they awake in the minds of their social circle. "Here comes Mrs. W. She is sure to lead the subject around to Albert's performances unless that hopeful child and his wonderful speeches can be side-tracked." I have known a silent combination of forces ready to check the mother without her suspecting it, when, as usual, she organ to launch forth on her topic. What becomes finally of all the infant phenomena? Some of them, no doubt, early grays, others break away from the group and melt into the ranks and are now heard of more. The vast majority continue be precocious, eventually take their places with the average people around us, do their work, and get through it with credit, their childish successes entirely forbidden. Well for them if their beginnings have not been too widely exploited. Child-preachers who declaim eloquently before gaping crowds, are to be pitted, not praised. Child actors and musicians are forced to play and act at an age when they should still be in nursery. Those who manage them must pay to watch them, seeming unable to their cruelty. Child-poets who whisper verses are printed with admiring comments, their full name, age and place of residence given to the public, are thrust out of the sweet retirement to which childhood is entitled and are apt in later years to suffer from criticism and from a sort of puzzled surprised that their maturity has not equalled their childish gentus. Fruit is not worth money in the realm of mentality. If God sends a bright and clever child into a household, give God thanks, but for the sake of all the future, do not push that child too rapidly onward. Who that ever read Dombey and Son can forget the heart-breaking picture of little Paul Dombey, the fond hope of his pompous parent, dying by inches in the forcing atmosphere of Dr. Bumber's school, "Bring him on, Cornelia," said the gagging over, and over. Little Paul Dombey, on, until the kindly Angel of Death shamed him away from the hands of the fools who knew so little how to educate a child of his delicacy and sensitiveness. It may be that the father and mother of a precoed child do not understand the risks they run until some danger signal startles them. A magazine story not long ago, gave an illustration of a child, motherless and in the care of a scholarly father, who took delight in preparing his boy for college, while he was still not much beyond his tenth or eleventh year. Brain fever mercifully developed and the child's life and future were saved through the process of suffering and a forgetting all he had ever acquired. It was a tosse up between life and death, but death and idiocy, and when his child came out of his stupor sane, and recognized his father, the rough doctor bluntly said to the latter, "Luck's your way," Jim, and it was ATTRACTIVE BLOUSE May Be Made of Light Weight Wool and the Trimming Is Bands of Insertion.

An Evening on Mt. Olympus Requires the Guests Know Considerable Grecian Mythology—An Easy Floral Contest. An Evening on Mt. Olympus. This charming evening was original with the hostess and afforded the guests much pleasure. It is especially adapted to school girls and boys, or to those who are inclined to study ancient By giving a hint to the guests to take a glimpse over their "Mythology" it will make the affair more enjoyable. In the invitation those who are asked to assemble on "Mt. Olympus" are requested to appear attired as a "god" or "goddess." The rooms are profusely decorated with garlands of artificial roses and the hostess is extremely attractive in her costume of "Hebe." After all have arrived, pass a cornucopia entwined with wheat, which contains a sprig of laurel, a sunflower, narcissus, iris, olive, a partridge, a spider (the two may be found in the toy or favor department), a trident, and a host of other objects to be found by looking over a book on Mt. Olympus. Each person draws an object and proceeds to give its particular legend. When that guess, anyone else is at liberty to tell the story. To the one who tells the most "tales" a award copy of Hawthorne's ever pleasing "Tanglewood Tales." if the hostess wishes, those who fail to tell any stories may be commanded to pay a forfeit to the "gods." The dining room table is strewn with roses and rose petals, the contriple being a large epergine filled with grapes of different varieties. Peacock feathers garnish this effective piece, with roses and petals a healer a "hour of plenity" is auspicious by the garlands, which extend to the four corners of the table, where they are fastened by rose and peacock blue ribbons. The place cards are small "horns of plenity," bearing a suitable quotation. The usual refreshments are served, with the addition of "nectar," which is a fruit lemonade with plenity of Marachino cherries, and instead of ice cream "ambrosia," the food of the "gods," is served, the glasses being decorated with a rose and smalllily. The hostess pulls a ribbon which tips the "horn of plenity" and a shower of dainty wrapped confections mingled with confetti is the final surprise provided by this thoughtful hostess. A. Floral Contest The floral games have proved so popular that this one, while old, may be new to some. At any rate it is very good and appeared so long ago that its revival will be welcomed by the many hostesses who are seeking guessing contests: My first wears my second on her foot (Lady's slipper). A Roman numeral (IV—Ivy). The hour before my English cousin's tea (Four o'clock). A very gay and ferocious animal (Dandelion). My first is often sought for my second (Marigold).

Two Maiden's Problems BY HENRY W. FOUNTAIN. (Copyright, 1986, by Daily Story Pub. Co.) Matters get mixed in this funny old world of ours. For instance, Florence Morton, the belle of the last season, and a most distractingly pretty girl, wital; with fortunes and titles awaiting her selection, providing she would barter her fair self for them, was most unhappy—for one reason. Pro contra, Fanny Downs, belle of all the countryside about Swish Valley, and as plump and rosy-cheeked and tempting as ever was a country lass; with the choice of all the sturdy loaves allow thereabouts at her feet, also was the happily—for exactly the opposite reason. For My Lady Florence, satiated with jewels and fine raiment and the fatiety of men of the world, tired of luxury and the feverish pleasures of the city, sighed for the love of a true, sturdy man, and for a simple life of honest love and endeavor in a modest way, far from brown stone fronts and dazzling lights and unformed servants and all the pomp and panoply of society warfare. And Fanny, in her calico gown, cazed out through the window, over ver hot oven and sighed for silks and satins and jewels and carriages and servants and lights and the glitter and sparkle of what she seemed to be true life—and she looked with disdain upon the honest young fellows who looked for herself alone, and who looked into her eyes with the desire of true love. Is it not a pity that these two maidens could not have changed places? But this is a solution of problems not in Nature's scheme. Now, Swish Valley, as the little station nestling in the mountains is known, is not only the market place and metropolis of that particular district, but is also the station where the tired seekers for country air abandoned the hot trains from the city and sought the cool breezes and country odors pertaining to the great hotel on the mountainside a mile back, which was eagerly sought during the summer season by some of the most exclusive and wealthy denizens of the town. The gorgeous butterflies of both sexes had been thrust upon the attention of Fanny for many years. indeed, they not the most conspicuous spot in the life of the country about Swish Valley station, and did not the Valley simply exist - from season to season between the departure of the "swells" and the arrival thereof? Besides, Fanny had waited on table at the hotel for a season or and her quick eyes had taken in all the splendor and luxury of the situation. Probably that was why she treated Dave Bangs so coldly after she got home-Dave, who had been her unsurviving lover and admirer ever since she had been old enough to remember. Dave dumbly accepted the coldness and kept coming whenever she would let him in. While Fannie stood beside the humble gate to her home and spurned her true love and sighed for the titler lover of her love, Florence endured the attentions of My Lord Lyddon, with his 40 years and his marks of dissipation and his intolerable air of supercilious proprietorship, as best she could. She knew the match was the one she needed to heart, and meant the rehabilitation of fortunes and the maintenance of their social station. She loved luxury even white hating the heartlessness of her set—and she appreciated her mother's necessities. Then there was Ralph Sommers, whose quiet, steady eyes would not leave her mental vision, and whose many voice rang ever in her ears: "Florence, you must take your choice. I cannot offer you wealth or position—only an honest heart and all of the lifetime." She knew well what she wanted—but the habit of all the years and the pressure of parental love and filial duty had kept her from her incinations. My Lady Florence had a passion for riding, and the happiest hours she spent in the mountains were while she galloped over the country roads, climbed the hills and half slid down into the valleys. And she often passed the plain, unpainted little farmhouse in the dusk of the evening on her return to the hotel, and many times she saw pretty Fanny Downs standing gate listening listlessly to a bigh, honest gate seemed to be pleading a honest gate seemed to be pleading a honest, badly, and to whom Miss Florence seemed to turn ever an indifferent, if not impatient, ear. And something in the appearance and poise of the big fellow reminded her most distractingly of Ralph Sommers, and she grew cross with the girl for her indifference—and then blushed as she thought of her own treatment of Sommers. So it happened that she became interested in the courtship at the farm gate, and happened very frequently to ride by and observe. One day she rode by and the girl stood alone, with rather more scariest in her cheeks than was usual, while down the road My Lady Florence saw the figure disappearing around the bend. The temptation was too great, and she drew rein and said to the girl: "I have seen you so often that I cannot resist stopping and speaking to you"—this with that rare smile which won all who met her. "I have seen you riding by many times," she sald, simply, "and—and I have often seen you at the hotel." $2.40 PER YEAR. "May I ask you a question?" asked My Lady Florence. "Surely," replied the other, looking up, surprised. "Is that your lover—the big, hand-some man with the steady brown eyes and the splendid head?"—pointing to the disappearing figure down the road. Fanny fushed scarlet, and looked a bit defiant. "Oh, he's always hanging around, and won't take no for an answer—but I won't marry him, so I won't." "Why?" asked My Lady Florence. "Because I won't marry any of these country loots with their coarse clothes and their rough meners," blazed Miss Fanny, stamping her pretty foot. "I am as pretty as you, if you give me a chance with your fine clothes and baths and maids and messages and—and things—and I can interest these fine gentlemen and lords and dukes, and—and things as well as you, if I have half a chance." My Lady Florence dismounted and placed a hand gently on the eafent shoulder of the girl. "My dear girl," she said. "Please, please believe me when I tell you that there is no hapiness the all the things you speak of. The most love of an honest man is the greatest happiness a can have. I know the man who have sent away is a good man, and a one. Do not, do not, I beg of you, throw away your great chance of happiness for the tawdry tinsel of which you speak. It means a life of misery to you, and you will curse yourself as long as you live." Fanny turned to her soberly, but still with traces of defiance. "Where is the tail, handsome fellow that looks like Dave, who was shining above you last year when I was waiting on table at the hotel!" she asked, sullenly. "Why didn't you marry him if what you say is true? What are you doing with that wizened little lord hanging around you, if you don't believe titles and money and—and things bring happiness!" It was Fanny's turn now to flush to her temples. She stood with her hand still on the other girl's shoulder and far off from unseeing eyes. After long hours in which neither girl spoke, My Lady Florence said, softly, turning her eyes searchingly into those of her companion: "You are right, my dear. I am a poor preacher. You are a better one. You have taught me my lesson. I will make a compact with you. I will go back to Ralph—the man who looks like your Dave—and I will marry him if you will marry Dave—and—and we both will be happy, won't we dear?" There were tears in both the eyes of both girls, and Fanny impulsively threw both arms about My Lady's neck and sobbed: "I will! I will!" Mr. and Mrs. Sommers spent what little summer vacation Ralph is able to get, not at the great hotel, but at the beautiful and comfy home of Dave Bangs, and Mr. and Mrs. never fall each winter to spend a week or two with the Sommers in their third-story flat in the city. In the meantime, Mrs. Morton, deceased, but not discouraged, is grooming her youngest daughter, Ethel, for the market place and endeavoring to hold My Lord Lyddon until Miss Ethel shall be ripe for the picking. ENJOYMENT AS A VIRTUE The Doctrine of Human Happiness as Opposed to Renum- um All pessimism, all asceticism, is founded upon the existence of what Tolstoy calls the "illusory thirst for enjoyment." Now, however, writes Vernon Lee, in the North American Review, numerous the cases where enjoyment proves impossible or mischievous, the continued existence of the human race shows that, 99 times out of a hundred neither the enjoyment nor the thirst for it is illusory, but, on the contrary, a genuine advantage, making subsequent enjoyment not less, but more, possible by perfecting the sensibilities. The healthy activity of the whole individual, with its inevitable hierarchy of impulses, both secures pleasure and foreclosure, and by its inclusion of insubordination of others to these, it diminishes conflict with others quite as effectually as does Tolstoy's Renunciation. And here let me ask that there is surely something mean in reciprocal renunciation, resulting in the cessation of struggle and disappointment. Such renunciation is often needful in our imperfect individual case; our eye gives us trouble, and we cast it from us. But such rough and cast it from us. Such wasteful, destructive methods are surely not admissible in a philosophy of life, in a counsel of perfection! The universal, as distinguished from the individual, rule for greater happiness is not self-dimination but assimilation, expansion, the non-ego becoming, in imagination and feelings, an integral part of the ego. Asceticism preaches voluntary improvement; my neighbors must steal to me possess nothing; I cease to covet, because they possess nothing; 'tis Empressus safety, after the thieves had carried us away brass lamp. But the law of human life barter; asking freely and giving fully; mutual enriching through fully; supernatural. Asceticism refuses to admit this law; for all asceticism moves in the logical circle of pain as cause and effect. Defective Page HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? ADAMS BROS.

Distrust all who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to class for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY. JUNE 23. 1906. IN ANSWER TO ADAMS As a counterpoise to Charles Francis Adams' flappetide article, the Troy Times publishes the following from the pen of Woodworth Clum, a correspondent of the Washington Post, vouched for as a gentleman in every way worthy of credence. Mr. Clum describes the machine shop and round house at Culebra. "This foreman is a full-blooded Negro from Jamaica, who came to the isthmus two years ago as a common librer, and who, by sheer merit, has worked himself to a position where he is almost indispensable. He has so completely mastered all the intricacies of locomotives and other machines, and he has mastered the disabled engine is brought to him, he dismesses the trouble like a doctor getting at the root of a disease, and he prescribes what shall be done to restore or to preserve the usefulness of the machine. His value as a promoter of economy and efficiency is great and generally recognizes the machine never had any of the advantages technical training so freely accorde to white men." Mr. Clum also points out that this man does not monopolize the mechanical knowledge on the isthmus. He says, "Most of the engineers are Negroes, and so are their firemen. They are all ambitious, work well, and from THE MUSEUM OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALGARY The fifteenth anniversary of the founding of Wilberforce University at Wilberforce near Xenia, Ohio, was celebrated by the Board of Trustees, Secretary, Bishop W. B. Perrick in Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Bishop B. W., Arrest, First, Vice, Press. all I can learn are giving perfect satisfaction. What did Charles Francis Adams ever accomplish? Record of this man? Will he ever marry him in talent and usefulness? Quoth the raven: "Nevermore." IDIOTIC COLOR PREJUDICE. The Chicago Chronicle in discussing the tople of our trade relations with South America says: "He is much given to indignant wonder that most of the people of Latin America show so little disposition to cultivate trade with us." And it frankly and correctly assigns the real reason as follows: "No doubt there is more mixture of the white blood with that of colored races among the blacks, really ruling classes—not always individuals but classes—among the larger part of them are very different from our common, vulgar, prejudiced notions, and our common fashion is to make no distinctions, to "lump" them together, to "sweep" them when we meet them as daoses, "half-breads," "greasers" and the like." The idiotic color prejudice of the hoodlums of the United States, which is catered to by the higher classes, is what repels North American traders, not only from Latin America but from other countries, who are forlesting annually, thousands, yes, millions of dollars on account of its Tillmans, Vardamans, todixians and other degenerates who have nothing of which to be proud but the color of their skin. THE APPEAL is really glad of the fact that our national stupidity is touching the pocket nerve and attracting attention "on change." THE PICAYUNE ASKS. Apparently in sober or hysterical earnest, the New Orleans Piscayne asks: "How often will they the fear of Federal intervention cause the enraged people of communities in which their wives and daughters are outraged, to forestall by summary vengeance any action by their State courts, not because they distrust their own courts, but because they fail to take the power, discrediting and disregarding the State courts, shall swoop down upon them and carry off from their jurisdiction every Negro ravisher and murderer?" We should say, "Not very often." It is not very often that Federal or other courts get any chance in a suchching thing is all over, when they have the satisfaction of knowing that the crime was committed not by the "enraged people of communities" but by parties to the honorable(?) jury "unknown." The victim of a superior court in many instances to discredit and disregard the The fiftieth anniversary brated this week. Rev Derrick is Chairman of actions of the inferior court. The Picayne seems to have been taking lessons from Bishop Turner when it was accused of stealing a car and as swooping down and carrying off. SPECIAL TRAIN LYNCHING. A portion of Louisiana is having a delightful time as a result of the lynching of a white murderer, Robert Rogers. The ball opened as follows: Editor Mangham was waited on by Walter Jones, who denounced the editor's lynching. The lynch law Jones was knocked down several times by the editor, and the latter in turn was beaten over the head by Mrs. and Miss Jones. Interference prevented the shooting affray that seemed inevitable. Next, practically all the people of Madison, resent what they regard as an affair of the lynchman from a distance should have invaded Madison, beaten in the jail, and hanged a prisoner on trial there. Thirdly, the Vicksburg, Shreveport and Pacific Railroad is brought into the controversy, and the lawyers of the lynchman man announce that they will bring a suit for $100,000 damages for the lease of the special train to Brown and his mob, on the grounds that the lynchman crew well knew for what criminal purpose the special was being run. According to the Chicago Chronicle the "yellow peril" that so excites the powers "is that the Chinese will have the audacity to insist on running their own government as soon as they think themselves able to defend their right. For many years Chinese customs have been collected by a British officer, an arrangement into which China was builted by the British government. Also for some time Chinese railroads have been run by white foreigners, but China now proposes to collect her own powers, say her own debts and run her own powers, is has insturred the gang-powers we mean, and we learn that, "The ministers of the powers are considering the question of taking joint action on the customs question." The delicate euphemism of this sentence is noteworthy. It sounds as if the ministers of the powers are considering the joint action to force the Chinese to stand and deliver the booble. But it --- ABRAHAM LINCOLN The Republican party at Philadelphia this week celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of its birth in the what may be called the cradle of republicanism—Musical Fund hall—where, on June 17, 1866, the republican party opened its first national convention which named Fremont and Dayton as its presidential ticket. Hundreds of republicans from different sections of the country gathered to commemorate the event. While the meeting commemorated the beginning of the first convention, it was devoted largely to addresses in memory of Abraham Lincoln. does not tell the truth half so plainly. How can nations expect their citizens to refrain from graft when their governments are stealing from other peoples? not imply that Mr. Evans can be bea en by fraud, but that "must" sounds little suspicious. OLD SLOGANS INEFFECTIVE Some of the Southern journals are learning that their old, old slogans are not only ineffective in inspiring the boys, but actually disgusting and detrimental. As an instance we cite the following from the Nashville Ameri- anniversary of the founding of Wilberforce k. Rev. Joshua H. Jones, D. D., is Presi- man of the Board of Trustees and Bishop ERFORCE'S GOLDEN JUBILEE ANNIVERSARY Founding of Wilberforce University at W. Jones, D. D., is President and Rev. Horace Trustees and Bishop B. W. Arnett, First WILBERFORCE'S GOLDEN JUBILEE ANNIVERSARY. Mr. Evans has been a resident of Tennessee for more than a quarter of a century, and while he has at times been out of sympathy with the whites in the community, he has been a useful citizen and a patriot. The democrats can beat him, and must beat him, but not by reviving obsolete war cries. "carpet-bagger" is not going to keep Clay Evans out of the governorship. Democrats must pitch their battle on more exalted lines this year. There is a very large vote that knows the democrats and carpet-baggism, and cares less. We hope that the last sentence does 1930 1890 M. B. SENATOR SHELBY M. CULLOM, One of the few men now living who knew Abraham became a national character.

Tillman, Bailey & Co. saw through the thing and were heartily in favor of it. All of the jim crow laws of the South have the same "equal accommodation" clause, for effect abroad, but it amounts to nothing at home and it was not intended to amount to anything. The amendment if adopted would have been as infamous a piece of lexication as the dead and damned Fugitive Shave Law. SHERIFF AND SUPREME COURT.

Shipp shipp an American, since he presumes jurisdiction of the Supreme Court?" Shiffr Shipp seems intent upon demonstrating that the restoration of the rebels to full citizenship and the control of the eleven seceding states of the institutions blunder and an act of the basement of Afro-American. These rebels have been petted and flattered until they are just stuffed up with impudence and presumption. Like the shiffr they don't care a d—a n for the United States, and the only way to make them are is to lambast them thoroughly. THE APPEAL is just as much opposed to the lynching of Alfonso and his young bride in Madrid as to his young Johnson at Chattanooga. Both were just as much opposed to be, and of course, one was no worse than the other. There is no essential difference morally between the anarchists of Spain and those of Tennec that the former are professionals and the latter are such wretches with a vacillating milk-and-water policy is criminal carelessness. The news that the thefts are of common occurrence in the Alston Golf Club which is composed of the Boston "400." is somewhat sensational. A prominent lady of high social standings having swiped from Mrs. Hagar, diamonds valued at $1,000. That does not prove that every white woman is a thief, nor does it prove the total deprivation of the whole race, for the philosophical reason that all parties concerned were white. Three Mississippi whiteappers, members of the famous Farmer's Alliance of Franklin county, recently pied gritty and were sentenced at the court of trial for involvement and $25 fine each. The secret of this wholesale identification and punishment was that they were ruining the white planters by frightening away their labor. If it had been a lynching, of course the persons would have been "unknown." As the APHEAL was already strongly opposed to lynching, it by no means regrets the conditions of things in Louisiana. A few such occurrences will have a great tendency to eventually put an end to the reign of savagery and to restore the supremacy of law. The cause of the lynching was that the court of the murderer quick enough to suit the ia, Ohio, was cele- ary. Bishop W. B. mob. This was also the fact in the Chattanooga case. Senator Tom Platt said recently that a politician should retire when the "feel d-d good and ready." That suggests the idea that a man should abandon the language of blackguards when he breaks into the Senate. The white Knights of Pythias in Georgia are trying to devise means to disintegrate the Afro-American branch of the institution. "Old Tray tried to chaw that old tom cat, but the cat we wouldn't be chawed." By strenuous efforts, the Afro-Americans defeated the "jim crow" amendment to the Railroad Rate Bill much to the chagrin of Senators Bally and Tillman. Mr. Charles Francis Adams has not won much applause by his dissertation upon the African except from a few "jim crow" editors and Governor Vardaman. We might say something good about the late Senator Gorman if we knew anything to say. HERE PHILOLOGY IS BAFFLED. Impossible to Trace Clearly the Words "Tart" and "Ple." Usage alone must decide the issue between "ple" and "tart," which has returned to us with the gooseberries says the London Chronicle. Philology, at any rate, draws no clear distinction. It only traces back "tart" to the Indian "tortus," twisted—the poetry being the "twisted part," of course, while it is very doubtful about whole. Skott's conjure that this expresses the lanceous nature of the contents in persuasive. All the "pies" seem to go back to the original one, the mangle —in Latin, "pica"—from whose black and white aspect comes "pied" and "plebald." The old ordinal or service book was called "pica" or "piic" because of the appearance of the black letter type on a white pigeon, and the edible pie, having equally mixed contents, may have been christened after this by medieval humor. Printers' language retains both "pica" for a kind of type and "pii" for type all jumbled up THE HOLIDAYS An unctectarian Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education.

P., but the weather was so cool and inclement that it was voted best not to go. The captain of the steamer Hiawatha very kindly proposed to tender the use of the boat for any other night and made no charge for steaming up last Wednesday night, neither did Prof. Cousy's orchestra make any charge for their appearance and services rendered. This was extremely gracious upon their part and was highly appreciated both by the people and the members of the Lodge. It was decided to give the excursion next Wednesday evening and it is hoped that all who can will go. Everything will be done for the enjoyment and -comfort of all patrons. It is hoped that all who desire to go will get to the water early as possible. The music will be hand and a promenade concert will be given before the boat starts. Remember to get to the wharf, foot of Jackson street at 8:00 o'clock sharp. Tickets 50 cents, children 25 cents. Everybody invited. Persons holding tickets for last Wednesday night may use them next Wednesday night. --- COSMOPOLITAN MUTUAL CASUALTY CO. BRADLEY BLDG. ST. PAUL, MINN. CLAIMS, PAID. OUR BEST AD. O. D.

ARNETT. Vice Chairman, Depot of Trustees, Willard George Mercer B. R. Durant ENTS him as an appreciation of his general good behavior. The church choir and Sunday School of which he is a member wish him a pleasant visit. Rev. Graves returned to us Wednesday morning and folks were glad to see him; aside from being somewhat indisposed which kept him from attending the Jubilee at Wilberforce. He, however, attended the Minister's Meeting in Chicago. Brothers Dank, Harding and J. S. Strong filled the pulpit in good shape during the absence of Rev. Graves; the attendance was very fair, in spite of the big fire in town. The collection last Sunday was $16.- 28. The One More Effort Club met last Tuesday evening at Mrs. England's, 514 Fuller st., and spent a most pleasant time. Stewardess collections. June 3, 92 cents; June 7, 88 cents; total $1.81. Rev. H.

Miss Harper is making a very picture of health. She has had a very successful year, in her kindergarten work, and is garded as one of the best teachers in the Northwest. There was a loud demand to retain Miss Harper at the head of the school, but she has a flattering offer from the east, and probably will accent. One of the most enjoyable entertainments of its kind ever heard in this city was that given last Friday evening at the K. P. Hall by the juvenile Sunday School of St. Thomas Mission, under the direction of Mrs. Minnie Plummer. About a dozen little folks took part in the program, and their work would have done credit to much older people. The number that deserves special mention was the solo and chorus by Masters Earl Stewart, Theodore Cooper, Ralph Ward, Harvey Moss, Frank Wheaton, and William Frazier. All these boys have good voices and use them well. Earl Stewart who led the chorus, and who, by the way, is a nephew of the great Charlie Johnson, the composer and comedian, has a voice of rare quality and sweetness. The next opportunity you 'should hear these boys sing. About fifty dollars was cleared on the concert. Miss Minnie C. Taylor of Fort Snelling entertained at 5 o'clock dinner Tuesday, Mesdames Z. A.
