THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3- Its correspondents are able and energetic. BELGIUM IS ONLY COUNTRY WHERE WOMEN DO BULK WOMAN CULTIVATING THE LAND IN COUNTRY NEAR BRUSSELS. BELGIUM IS ONLY WHERE WOMEN OF THE Societies for the advancement of womanhood could find abundant work in Belgium. To-day the land of King Leopold is perhaps further behind the times in its treatment of the gentler sex than any other country in Europe. Here woman still does the manual labor of the land as she once did it all over the world. The voice of progress, whose modern note is spelling emancipation everywhere else, has not yet sounded for the woman of the little strip of land 173 miles by 112 that rejoices in the name of kingdom. The Belgium woman is the nation's farmer, miner, laborer and mechanic. She toils from dawn till sunset at the heaviest kind of work, and none pites or makes an appeal for her. The little country of whose existence she is the corner stone, is one of the most densely populated in the world, and every square mile of territory must support 485 persons. That it is able to do so is only because of the industry, the slavish willingness of the women of the country to do the kind of work from which other nations have freed her. The soil of Belgium is well adapted to agriculture. The once impassable morasses of the Morini and the Menapil have been drained and converted into fertile fields, surrounded by dense plantations. A system of canals helps the Scheldt and the Maas in their work of irrigating the land, and the variations of climate from very hot summers to extremely cold winters give advantages for the production of varied farm stuff that are denied to the neighboring country of Holland. But the seed sown by nature would never be repeated if the work of doing it were left to man. The population of the country, some 7,000,000, is divided into the proportion of three rural dwellers to one who lives in the city, and probably the same proportion, three to one, would show the number of women and children as against men who toil in the fields. Centuries of habit have made man regard the Belgian woman as a natural wage earner. If he is industrious he works in the factory, while she goes out and raises the farm produce that is eaten. Young women and old think nothing of working a twelve-hour day in the fields. In the hundreds of acres devoted to vineyards, where is produced a fair, but not famous wine, it is women who do the bulk of the work, and the gourmand who drinks a bottle of wine with a Belgian label has woman to thank for his enjoyment. But it is not alone at farming that the women of Leopold's realm toll for their keep. Incredible as it may seem, they are actually miners, and no small part of the valuable mineral output of the country results from their efforts. WOMAN CULTIVATING THE LAN A Substitute. Being very close-fisted, Mason had never allowed himself the costly habit of smoking. He always felt himself a loser when any one treated to cigars. But on one occasion, when the party he was with entered a stationery and cigar store, he made up his mind to have his share of the treat. "Won't you have a smoke this time?" asked the leader. "No, thank you," replied Mason; "but if you don't mind, I believe I'll take a pencil." OLD FLEMISH WOMAN HARVESTING IN THE FIELDS. In the United States it has always been a matter of concern with humanitarians that in order that the world might be supplied with coal, men must do all the dangerous work incident to mining and getting it to the market. In this country the miners, subject of so much solicitude, are men, but in Belgium the same dangers, privations and exhausting work are the portion of woman. In all the Belgium mines women work at the surface, handle coal, push wagons and do the work that breaker boys accomplish in the United States. In some of the mines they are not permitted to go below the surface, but in others they actually compete with the male miners. In all the centers of the various minerals at Liege, where copper is wrought; at the black marble quarries of Diant, the state quarries of Herbe mount and callimine mines at Liege, there will be found women working, and in most cases very grateful for the opportunity. OLD FLEMISH MAN HA At the great seats of the finen industry, Courtney and Bruges, in West Flanders, Ghent in East Flanders, Brussels in Brabant, Mechlin or Malines in Antwerp, Tourney in Hainaut, women are employed in great numbers and are more skilled than men. But no account of their ability is taken in the wages paid them, which are for the most part pitifully small. When Dowie, as part of his dream of a modern Zion in the United States, brought a number of lace workers from Belgium, with the idea or making a fortune from their work, he made them no extravagant offers of salary, yet their income was as much in one year and been in a month in their native land. But the lot of these line workers and lace makers is a dream of luxury D IN COUNTRY NEAR BRUSSELS. A Misused Figure of Speech.

SARTO IN ATTITUDE OF RE- Defective Page compared to what some other Belgian women must endure. It is hard to conceive of a woman brickmaker, but they have them in Belgium by the thousand. Their part of the work is to prepare the clay for the molders who actually make the bricks. Still another unfortunate section of King Leopold's feminine population finds its livelihood working in the woods, breeches like a man, and labor as hard as the strongest of their sons, fathers, brothers or husbands. Naturally where this is permitted in Leopold's own realm, that country in which he resides and of whose conditions he cannot be ignorant, it is not to be expected that he would be overscrupulous as to what goes on in the far-off Congo from whence he derives that fabulous income which makes him one of the richest sovereigns in Europe. Congo native women are still used for doing the eavy carrying of the caravans, and they lift and haul loads that would test the strength of the strongest man. There is nobility to protect them, man or woman, for the native Congo man has no regard whatever for the comfort of his own. He regards them as inferior to himself in every respect, and only fitted for drudgery. RVESTING IN TH. FIELDS. Nor do the Belgian soldiers protest. They are only for the money they can return to their king from the great rubber industry, and he is too busy with the wiles of the kind of Cleo de Merode to bother about justice to women. CALENDAR FOR THIS YEAR. By committing to memory the following lines one is provided with an easy method of stating off-hand the day of the week of any date in the present year. Jelly of my apples made, I joyfully ate; Sickish often; no delight! The number of letters in each word represents the date of the first Saturday in the particular month to which it corresponds. Thus "jelly," representing January, has five letters, so the first Saturday in January is the fifth of that month; "of," representing February, has two letters, so the first Saturday in February is the second of that month, and so on through all the twelve months. Each word of the twelve, excepting "of" and "I," has its first letter the same as the month it represents, thus "jelly" begins with "J." because January begins with "J." "m" begins with "m" because March begins with "M," and so on all through, with the above two exceptions. Having thus ascertained the date of the first Saturday, the date of every other Saturday in the month is got by the addition of the necessary number of sevens, from which it is but a simple step to any intermediate day. For example, to know the day on which Christmas day falls this year, "delight," because December has seven letters, so the first Saturday in December is the seventh of the month, the second Saturday the fourteenth, the third the twenty-first, twenty-five being four days more gives Wednesday, which is four days from Saturday, the twenty-first. Rear Admiral Mead, at a dinner at the Portsmouth navy yard, illuminated with a story an interesting discourse on food inspection. "A sailor," he said, "brought a tin cup to an inspecting officer and exclaimed: "Taste this, sir. That is all I ask. Just taste it." "The officer took a sip. "Well, really, my man," he said, "this is not bad soup at all." "Yes," said the sailor, bitterly; "and want to persuade us, sir, that it is law." The Wily Barber.

THE MUSICAL "THE MUSICAL" BY MARY MAYER MLLE. SARTO IN ATTITUDE OF RE QUESTING HEAD OF JOHN The "Salome," scorned in the United States, is the sensation of Europe. No opera written since Wagner started a world of controversy with his "Parsifal," has called for such discussion as the child of the genius of Richard Strauss, turned from the Metropolitan opera house in disgust because Americans objected to what they called its sacrilegious plot, the immorality of the "Dance of the Seven Bornes," the borneo that final incident when music kissed the severed head of John the Baptist. London, Paris, Berlin and Rome have widely acclaimed that which made New York shudder. The opera may even become a political issue in France, because of the expressed determination of President Fallenier to bestow the Legion of Honor on Composer Strauss. Those who oppose the plan do not take their objections on any prejudice, but they do not believe "Salome," it is only because Strauss is German, traditional foe of France, that they oppose this highest of all honors. When Wagner's "Tannhuser" and "Lohengrin" were produced in Paris, it took soldiers to quell the riots raised by those who hated the composer and his works. But now Strauss is welcomed and lionized. Truly he has nothing for which to blame his "Salome," even though it was not welcomed in the United States. The European vogue of the work has produced a whole harvest of "Salomes," and every singer who qualification is whatever for the difficult role is now frantically studying it in order to qualify for the many performances being planned. The costumers of Paris who are called upon to dress nearly all the heroines of the opera stage, report themselves as being unable to meet the demands for "Salome" costumes. Every prima donna wants a different kind of make-up, and a model that suits one is entirely discarded by another. New York saw a beautiful Salome when the daughter of Herodias in the person of Olive Fremstad passed before the vision of the one audience permitted to behold her at the Metro-politan. Miss Fremstad had consulted the most famous of French costumers as to the best means of appropriately insisting her own beauty and making her own flowers and a corsac trembling in the wind. The Salome dress of Miss Fremstad was intensely Parisian so far as its paillettes and its chiffon ruffles were concerned. The long blue velvet cloak that trailed sinuously over the floor was a beautiful detail of the costume in the scenes that preceded the dance, and the net of pale blue satin strips and applet gems that hung over the silk petticoat was a characteristic and ornamental feature of the costume. So was the gold ringe on the bottom of the skirt. Beautiful Mata Hari has proved one of the most talented and entracingly costumed Salomes to appear in the gay French capital. Her impersonation of the difficult character is said to be nothing short of bewitching. Emmy Destinin of the Royal opera house, Berlin, had the good fortune to be picked for the role in the performances at Berlin and Paris, and added much to her fame thereby. The statuesque and lovely Breval very much THE LADY OF THE MIDDLE AGE MLLE. HARI PREPARED FOR DANCE OF "SEVEN VEILS" wanted to sing the part in Paris, and would have succeeded but for some controversies aroused in the matter of royalties. Destin, who ranks as the foremost lyric soprano of the Fatherland, made instantaneous hits in both cities. No artist in the part of Salome has attracted greater attention in the continent of Europe than charming Else Sarto. Her costuming of the part is said to be startling in its daring and bizarre theatrical effect. Marie Sutter, who had the honor of singing "Salome" when it was first attempted at Stuttgart, is one of the most beautiful and youngest of the singers who have been caressing the MLLE. HARI PREPARED FOR gory head of John the Baptist. Lottie Sparrow, who is also youthful, with more than a normal share of pulchritude, has divided honors in Munich as Salome with Lil Marberg. During the first winter that "Salome" was played in Munich, Marberg played the part no less than sixty times, and such a bewildering vision did she present that a number of noted artists painted her in the scene of the dance. Italy, usually slow to acclaim German music, has bowed its head utterly to the power of "Salome." Here two Salomes have had a bitter duel for favor, Kruschniska at La Scala, and the foremost living Italian singer, Gemma Bellincioni, at Torin and Rome. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOMEWHERE THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-It is not controlled by any ring or clique. 6-It asks no support but the people's. Krusciniska is a native of Little Russia, and made her earlier appearances in Poland. She became known as a Pole, but when she went to France, to make a sensation as Elsa, she decided that it would be to her advantage to be known as a Russian in a country which is an ally of the land of the czar. La Scala the dress is modeled strictly by a coraline line, and even at the sacrifice of some beauty of appearance the prima donna ismitted to inject a touch of Parisian smartness into her robes. "Salome" leaves none of the artists who sing it in the same doubt as to their estimate as it does the general public. Spectators may be horrified when the prima donna prostrates herself on the ground and fondles that bloody head, but lately torn from the shoulders of John the Baptist, but all the singers unite in declaring it one most wonderful roles ever devised. They realize none of the horror or disgust that chased sensitive women from the Metropolitan opera house when Miss Olive Fremstad did the R DANCE OF "SEVEN VEILS." scene for one night only in this country. They argue that undue emphasis is placed on the kissing incident, and not enough attention paid to the wonderful music that sobs and storms while the action takes place. Miss Fremstad said in answer to a question that she felt no revulsion whatever when kissing the head. Meanwhile Strauss is getting plenty of revenge for his exclusion from New York. If the time ever comes that the opera is permitted here, Europe will be able to send over fifty prima dognas who have sung it. MAN LOST IN HOSPITAL Curious Error of Record That Cost the Staff Much Trouble. Because a cross mark was half an inch too far to the right in the city hospital register a man was reported lost in the hospital, and doctors, nurses, internes, indeed, all the members of the city hospital staff, searched through the wards for him for hours, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. A man who was badly injured in a street accident was sent to the hospital for treatment and was immediately placed in the emergency ward—B 20. His admittance to the hospital was duly entered on the register, together with a brief description of his case, but in the haste of making the entry the clerk placed the cross mark too far to the right and he was registered as a colored man. His case was attended to and full details of treatment recorded in daily reports of the ward. In this instance he was described as a white man. When the day's records of all details were compared it was found that a colored man with a broken collar bone had been received at the hospital during the day for treatment, but none of the wards of the hospital contained such a patient. Nobody waited to investigate the record further, but every one began searching for the missing colored man. When no trace of him could be found the hospital staff decided he had simply walked out of the institution and the work of checking up the day's record was resumed. While going over the emergency ward's register the mystery was explained, and it was found that the clerk who made the entry of admission had inadvertently checked the patient in the "colored" instead of in the "white" column, and so he had been admitted as a colored man and treated as a white man. As he was a white man the entrance record was corrected and the man was "found." A SAIL IN SIGHT BUT IT IS ONLY A ROCK IN THE MID-PACIFIC. A Peculiar Freak of Nature That Fools Every Traveler When it Is First Sighted. To persons on the Pacific ocean the sighting of another vessel is of greater interest than the same occurrence on the Atlantic, for ships are not so common on the endless waters of the Pacific. There is one place, however, where the lookout will always an nounce a ship. He knows better, but he must have his joke, and it never fails. He gives the familiar call and the passengers crowd forward and strain their eyes. Away off they dimly see a ship. Every minute its outlines come more clearly into view. Why, it is bearing straight down on us, and the faithful Pacific trade wind is bellying its sail, they cry. It happens that they are approaching a little group of the Wallis islands, but land it can scarely be discerned, even when the the crew deal six or seven miles away. Glass on board is brought to bear on the vessel, and a strange thing about it suddenly becomes a subject of animated discussion. It doesn't seem to be moving, and yet that glistening white sail is puffed out by the wind. Why, it can actually be seen to swell under the effort of the gentle trades. Questions are fired at the captain and the lookout, but they are silent. By unanimous vote it is adjudged to be a rather small craft. As the distance lessens its bow seems to be rather blunt. It certainly is not moving, and yet the wind fills that sail. The awakening is sudden. The illusion is dispelled in a moment at the Sail Rock. proper distance. It is seen to be nothing more or less than a huge block of madreporic coral which has resisted the assaults of the sea and towers into the air. When seen near at hand the traveller only remarks its strange position, alone in the waste of waters. Its base has been worn away by the waves on all sides so that it is rounded, but above the rock spreads out wide and at a distance bears a striking resemblance to a bark whose sail is filled by a stern breeze. The slender growth of trees at the top has the exact appearance, when seen from afar, of a mast. Nothing more is needed to complete the illusion. The resemblance to a vessel never fails to receiveQueue who sees the rock for the first time. It was named Sail Rock by the earliest seafarers. The nautical instructions supplied to Pacific mariners make note of the resemblance to a ship. They also speak of the rock as serving a good purpose, for it is in front of the narrow opening in the reef through which vessels must pass, and so points out the place. Another fact that to serve to keep up the illusion to the last moment is, as all the passengers are told, that the opening in the reef is rather difficult to enter and a pilot comes out to take the vessel in. While the passengers are gazing and speculating some bright person of course suggests that this is the pilot boat coming out, and everybody adopts the idea as explaining the true mission of the strange ship. They are not aware that, among the other people who is on the lookout for ships, which call only at intervals, and the pilot usually has to be summoned by the boom of the ship's cannon. But the lookout has his joke, and life is enlivened for days by the memory of the excitement over a bit of Pacific coral. The Tallest Tree. The highest tree in the world, so far as has been ascertained, is an Australian gum tree of the species Eucalyptus regnans, which stands in the Cape Otway range. It is no less than 415 feet high. Gum-trees grow very fast. There is one in Florida which shot up 40 feet in four years, and another in Guatemala which grew 120 feet in 12 years. This corresponds to a rise of ten feet in a year, or nearly one foot per month. Probably the most curious Bible class in the west of England is that of deaf-mutes which meets near Chakal, Gloucestershire. All the members are deprived of their senses of hearing and speech and have to communicate and "talk" to each other by means of the deaf-mute alphabet.

McGhee (in Oct. 1896) and remained there for about a year. In May, 1904, he came to Minneapolis and continued the study of law under the direction of Attorney William R. Morris, in his office, 1020 Guaranty Loan Bldg. He matriculated (1904) in the law department of the University of Minnesota, taking the regular law course leading to the L. B. degree. He is the third of four degrees, of which, two hundred students to be admitted to practice law before the bar of the state of Minnesota, having the special distinction of being one of the first two to pass the bar examination of this state, which is said to be the hardest bar examination held in any state in the Union. The other lawyers were admitted to the bar by virtue of diplomas from a law school or of having come to this state as lawyers in good standing from other states, or as other expressed by comity. His record in school is excellent; he won all the mourn court cases in which he was engaged while a student in the University law depart WM. H. H. FRANKLIN. ment; appearing in some cases as counsel for plaintiff and in others as counsel for defendant. Not having time to take chare of one of his moot court cases, he placed it in the hands of one of his classmates, who lost the case, whereupon Mr. Franklin resumed charge of the case, appealed it, and won a signal victory in the appellate court. This is a good exponent as to his ability, and we predict a brilliant future for this young barrister, as he has evidenced in an unmistakable manner his possession in no ordinary degree of every quality necessary to make him a shining light in his profession. The difficulties Mr. Franklin has had to overcome and the obstacles he has successfully surmounted, when related, seem almost incredulous, and easily distinguish him as a man of indomitable will and force of personality, resourceful and untiring in his efforts when he undertakes anything just such a man as the legal protector requires. Studious, careful, astute,毋庸赊谰, thorough, his success appears assured. He at present located with his former preceptor and friend, Attorney William R. Morris, 1025 Metropolitan Life Bldg., formerly Guaranty Loan Bldg., where he will be pleased to see any prospective client who may need legal service. ```markdown ``` BEAR IN MIND THAT THE PORTERS AND WAITERS CLUB WILL NOT GIVE THE BOAT EXCURSION ANNOUNCEMENT FOR JULY 9TH BUT WILL WAIT UNTIL TUESDAY, JULY 30TH, WHEN EVERYBODY WILL GO AND HAYE A LARGE TIME. ```markdown ``` You are cordially invited to call and see my new place No. 69.1/2 West Third street where you may be served all the delicacies of the season on short notice.

REPENTS OF HIS BARGAIN, wopnerserye in Bull: Terstera; and, Bare Editions Sorely Vexed. A certain young man of literary tastes has two somewhat incongrv- ous yet almost equally expensive fads —a fondness for dogs of illustrious Pedigree and a love for first editions of celebrated books. One day he in- vited a friend to his house to see two of his latest acawisitions. One of them was an fmported bull terrier and the other was a rare copy of a work by a celebrated Boston afthor. He exhibited the dog first. “Isn't he a beauty?” he exclaimed. “He's the finest specimen of that breed that was ever brought to this town and I got him for about half what he’s worth, Yes, he's perfectly harmless and as gentle as can be. Now I'll show you something in the book line that you don't see every day. Cost me a good round sum of money, too." 3 ‘hey went into the brary and the first thing that caught his eyes was the mangled wreck of his cherished volume lying on the table. He sum: moned his colored servant. “Sam,” he said wrathfully, “what has happened to this book? I wouldn't have had it ruined for a hundred dol Jars!” “Hit wuz de dawg, suh,” answered Sam. “Yo! left ‘im in hyuh when yo went away, sh, an’ he done chawed ie all up, Ye'y sorry, sub” The following advertisement ap péared among the small “ads” tn a 16: ca} papér th8 next dayt*~ “Wanted — To Exchange — A full blooded imported bull terrier dog of the finest breed for a copy of the first edition of ‘The Autocrat of the Break fast Table.’""—Youth's Companion. NEW DEVICES IN WARFARE. Recoil of the Dreadnought’s Broad: side Is Something Astounding. It has been estimated that the Dreadnought’s ‘broadside develops force equal to the lifting of an entire city block composed exclusively o twenty-story sky scrapers! Little wonder that the uncouth monster skidded sideways under the recoil like an automobile on a muddy road. It is little wonder that France has laid down six Dreadnoughts to be completed within the next two years and Germany quickly followed, with Japan and ourselves equally anxious. Our reply to the Dreadnought is a projected ship of 20,000 or 25,000 tons, with perhaps twelveineh guns mounted in, dcubleturrets. ‘The latest developments are tur bine torpedoes, with a range of 4,000 yards and a speed of thirty-five knots They cost about $5,000 each, and are actually controlled by the boat they leave by means of electric light rays received on a tiny shaft projecting from the torpedo as it tears through the water. ‘Thus the automatic mis sile is under control and may be brought back at any moment, _, Sygere oe aosnmereenne Signe of Géting Barthquakes: Can an earthquake be “felt” ap- proaching as a shower of rain can be felt. and a fall of snow? On the Ri- viera in 1887 the horses laid thelr ears back and gave every sign of uneasi- ness. In Chile the birds have been ob- served to fly inland just before a con- vulsion. In Taleahuano in 1835 all the dogs fled from the city. These actions, of course, as a scientist who has col lected a Valuable list, suggests, may be mere coincidences, for birds will fly inland and kittens become nervous when no earthquake is nigh.: On the other hand, as the lower animals are singularly sensitive to any changes of weather and to, pressure ‘of the air they “may even be conscious of sub- terranean movements which do not come within human ken or are even not detectable by the most delicate instruments.” Cost of British Legislation. It costs much money to get a piece of legislation through the British par Hiament. A certwin railway once pro posed a scheme for a part of the coun- try where thelr undertaking would be a godsend to every enterprise and con- tribute to the wealth of a whole na tion. The bill ought to have gone through with almost no outlay of money. But to get the bill through parliament cost the sum of $2,000,000 before ever a sod was turned or a brick 1a. werden wer New York Was Once New Orange. Manhattan island was once named ‘New Orange fot fifteen months, When the English took it from the Duteh the name New Amsterdam was changed to New York, and then when the Dutch recaptured it in July, 1673, they called it New Orange. It held that name until the English retook it in No- yember, 1674, when the name New York was restored and has been re- tained ever since. Temperature on the Moon. "Astronomers long ago came to the conclusion that the moon's ~surface is very hot during the height of the lunar day, which lasts two weeks, and yery cold during the lunar night, which is equally long. ‘These ex- tremes of temperature reach thelr height at the lunar noon and mid- night and are greater than any ma- tural temperatures on the earth.
