THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 8- Its correspondents are able and energetic. VOL. 23 NO. 36. PRINCE OF MONACO EUROPE'S SOLE DES Appears as Agent of Peace in New Agreement tween France and Germany. PRINCE OF MON EUROPE Appears as Agent of Peace tween France PRINCE OF MONACO EUROPE'S SOLE DESPOT The prince of Monaco, occupant of the smallest throne in the world, has forced himself into the role of international peacemaker. Formerly he owed his notoriety mainly to the fact that the gambling palace of Monte Carlo is located within his domain, in fact furnishes the income which maintains it, but now the prince is taking himself more seriously. Diplomats give him credit of doing more to bring about a new and closer relation between France and Germany than all the statesmen of both countries combined. The prince advanced the proposition to the kaiser himself that France had spent the last decade building up friendships among the powers, while Germany had pursued a policy of isolation. He further showed that that England and Russia had to play with the traditional relationship between France and Germany, and that this was used again and again with effect in every case where the interests of the two nations could be made to appear in conflict. In this manner wise heads of the other nations of Europe get the better of the situation right along. The prince of Monaco has perfected an elaborate plan, which involves a frank understanding between France and Germany, and that agrees to lay aside the old animosity France to forget the ancient policy of some day winning back Alsace and Lorraine, Germany to welcome the investment of French money in securities of the Fatherland, and the two former foes to go along in harmony. Perhaps no ruler in the world is PRINCE ALBERT OF MONACO, Ruler of smallest kingdom in world. free enough from entanglements to suggest this plan, outside of the man who originated it. He did not have to consult with any one. He has no parliament, no cabinet, he is bound by no constitution. In fact now that modern ideas have to some extent made their way in Russia and forced the granting of a douma, Prince Albert remains perhaps the only absolute monarch known to civilization. Within the confines of the little principality of eight square miles that make up his kingdom he is the head and front, the center of the substance of all authority. The power When the History MONTE CAI 1 When the victory is won. There was one other thing which I wished to ask the man of the remote future about. "Tell me," quoth I. "do women vote in your day?" quoth I. "he they don't." He replied he "they don't." "Do they still seek the suit offrage?" "Oh, bless you, they've had that these hundred years." Wise men labor while waiting for something to turn up. Defective Page MONTE CARLO, PART OF PRINCE ALBERT'S DOMAIN. of life and death is vested entirely in him. No problems of rebellion can arise to give him trouble, for taxation, that most troubles of all subjects that come to steal the sleep or sovereigns, never need bother the happy Albert. Taxes are unknown in this favored garden spot on the blue waters of the Mediterranean. There is no budget, yet the treasury is always filled to overflowing. Revenues derived from the great gambling syndicate suffice to keep Prince Albert in lavish means to maintain his kingdom, to live on a scale of luxury, and to pursue his fads of scientific research. Diplomats have said that it is a misfortune for the world that a man of virtue of Albert should be called upon to steal the wealth of the largest kingdom in the world. He has abundant qualifications for control. No one denies that. The greater part of his fifty years of life he has devoted to scientific investigation, making a special of deep sea exploration. His books on the subject are accepted as classics, and he is a respected member of many of the foremost scientific societies of the world. The kingdom which the prince governs is a paradise on earth. No one there knows what money troubles are. The land is so fruitful that it yields fine crops if any attention whatever is given to stealing the soil. And for those who want to live a livelihood from the earth, visitors from all countries of the world, pleasure seekers, who troop to Monte Carlo with swelling pocketbooks, are willing to spend their cash with a prodigality unequalled anywhere in the world. The gambler who is lucky lets his money run in a stream in his joy of celebration, and the loser turns loose a torment of gold in the hope of forgetting his troubles. It is in this atmosphere that the prince lives, but he has not permitted the laziness of the atmosphere or of people generally to抄 his own energy. He administers the affairs of state with as much thoroughness as though he were the kaiser of Germany. The smallness of his domain enables the prince to watch every detail of the work. Each street must be clean as Spotless Town, or the derelict workman is called upon to explain to the despot why the work has been so poorly done. No native is allowed to play at the Casino, for gambling is a vice which the prince especially abhors. Let foreign come and grand their wealth liberally if they will that, the own matter, but he will not have the own of his own kingdom dropping sums they cannot afford with the inevitable harvest of discontent, misery and tragedy. The kaiser, Wilhelm, has the greatest admiration for the sole despot of Europe and the French government, barring only Premier Clemenceau, who is pro-British in his tendencies, regards the advice of the prince as well worth listening to. Temporarily the presence of Clemenceau in powers acts as a check to the reign of France and Germany, quick changes come often in Paris, and it would be no surprise at any time to see a new regime in power. When it comes, a new understanding RLO, PART OF PRINCE ALBERT'S COUNTY A florist of Philadelphia was one day making the rounds of his properties near that city when he was approached by a young man, who applied to him for work. "I am sorry," said the florist, "but have all the help I need. I have nothing for you to do." "Sir," said the young man, with a polite bow, "if you only knew how very little work it would take to occupy me!" THE APPEA between the two former enemies, with the prince as mediator, is virtually assured. It would indeed be a curious circumstance if the man who profits in largest measure by the most pernicious gambling system in the world should become the leading peace power of Europe. Such would certainly be the title of the man who could heal the old wounds left by the Franco-Prussian war. A REWARD OF FAITH. Conclusion Drawn From the Destruction of an Ohio Church. A congregation in a hilly district in Ohio bought a small tract of land and erected a church building upon it. Then the question of insurance came up. Mr. Sipes, the wealthiest member, who had contributed more than the money needed for the new structure, declared that he did not believe in insurance. "This is the Lord's building. He'll take care of it," he said. His view prevailed and there was no insurance. In a few weeks the building was struck by lightning and almost totally consumed by fire. Another er one was erected, Mr. Sipes contributing the greater portion of the fund as before. This time the demand was almost unanimous that it be insured, but Mr. Sipes: again objected on the same ground. "If it burns down again, brethren," he said, "I'll agree to rebuild it myself. Again he carried his point. In less than a month the new church was struck by lightning again, and although strenuous efforts were made to save it, the loss was almost total. The must be some reason for this, brethren, he said. Brother Sipes. "I am going to find out what it is." Thereupon he employed a force of men to sink a shaft on the site of the twice destroyed church. Within a few days a rich vein of iron ore was found and the church property was sold for many times the amount needed to buy land in another locality and build again. "I tell you, brethren," said Brother Sipes, "it pays to trust the Lord. He's a great deal better business manager than anybody in this congregation." Willing to Try It. "Well," demanded the stern visaged woman at the back door, "what do you want?". "Why," replied the tramp, "I seen you advertised 'table board' in dis mornin' papers—" "Well!" "Well, I 'tought mobe yere wuz givin' out some samules." DOMAIN. Plenty of Room. "O, George," exclaimed Mrs. De Collitt, "all the trunks are packed and shipped and I forgot to put in my bathing suit." "Never mind, dear," replied her husband, fortunately I've worn off smoking. "Eh? What has that to do with it?" "Why, you can pack your bathing suit in my cigar case." A woman is apt to frown when her husband "smiles" too often. Some of the former presidents of the United States are not to be discounted as factors in public affairs. The keys of President Roosevelt and President Cleveland are still too young to be reckoned with, and McKinley had none, but those wearing the name of Lincoln, Grant and Garfield are holding prominent places in public life, and it is by no means an impossibility that one of them may yet go to the White House. There is a precedent. John Quincy Adams made a greater president than his distinguished father, John Adams, Harrison, father and son, did not succeed each other, but Benjamin Harrison was grandson of William Henry ROBERT T. LINCOLN. Son of the war president, prominent in public life, and generally considered ablest of president's sons. Harrison, so that it will be seen that relationship to a former chief executive is by no means a bar to a man's ambitions. The case of the Grants at once suggested. There are two of them now holding high places in public esteem, and one of them, Frederick Dem Grant, has followed the calling of his father, and is a soldier. The other, Jesse Grant, who has spent most of his years in California, was not quite so well known until recently a number of boomers suggested him as available material for the Democratic nomination for the presidency. Then folks began to sit up and take notice and ask questions about Jesse Grant. They found out that Jesse was the third son of Lee's conqueror, that having retired from business, in which he acquired liberally of wealth, he is now settled down in New York. Perhaps the strongest plank in Mr. Grant's platform is opposition to Mr. Roosevelt. He does not believe in the policies inaugurated by the strenuous man from Sagamore Hill. He does not trust is necessarily pernicious, he favors protection of immigration, and he deploys the ceremonials that are now deemed essential to White house hospitality. Mr. Grant delights to recall the days when his father was president, and to tell of their simplicity. His father's first act, he says, was to order out of the White house all the soldiers placed there on guard. The president of the United States is only a citizen," was the way Gen. Grant put it, "and needs not the guards, that are used to surround monarch." The wearer of a famous name makes no denial that if a nomination came his way, he would take it with JESSE GRANT, Third son of President Grant, mentioned for Democratic nomination for president. At Dinner. Mrs. John—John, why are you eating so fast? Don't you know it's injurious?" John—"Yes, but I want to finish the book I'm reading." Mrs. John—"What's the name of it?"

Blessed are the meek, for they get their work in just the same. avidity, but he is a heir to the-wool Democrat, and would make his fight for a return to those ancient doctrines with whose authorship Thomas Jefferson is most popularly credited. The other prominent Grant, Frederick Dent Grant, is not now a presidential suggestion even, but the advance of a man in the military service is often meteoric. Riding up San Juan hill put Theodore Roosevelt in the White House, and it is ever a possibility that Gen. Grant, who bears a liking to resemble to his distinguished father, might figure in some episode of valor that would at a stroke lift him above the choices of the politicians. Gen. Grant is one of the most favored men in the service, President Roosevelt in particular reposing the utmost confidence in him. Though he is much younger, Secretary of the Interior James Rudolph Garfield, youngest son of the martyred president, perhaps stands a better chance of some day going to the seat his father occupied than any other president's son. His career has been of the kind that invites expectation. He was a boy around the White House, he went to college, studied law, graduated, made himself an honorable record in the Ohio senate, and then came to Washington. It is a fact not generally remembered that James Rudolph Garfield was not Mr. Roosevelt's first choice for civil service commissioner. The place was originally offered to his brother, Harry A. Garfield, a leading Ohio attorney, and a man who gained fame because of the persistence with which he has opposed political corruption in the state. Harry declined the place, and it then went to James R. As soon as the latter got a foothold at the capitol, he made a quick impression, and proved to President Roosevelt that he is the kind of man needed to be the administration's war on corporation. The short time he had been advanced from the civil service department and made commissioner of corporations. It was in this post that he did his most notable work, and as a reward, he was finally taken to the official family of the president as secretary of the interior. PETER H. BURKE Here Mr. Garfield gained his spurs by addressing himself to the task of dealing with the land thieves. He also removed many of the red tape customs that had been retarding business, and had put the work of the department far behind. President Roosevelt was much delighted with the vigor the son of Ohio's first martyred president put in his work, and Mr. Garfield is now one of the president's closest advisers. Two of Mr. Garfield's brothers are, like himself, lawyers, Harry A. and Abram. Irwin' the youngest member of the quartet, is an architect. Not so long ago it used to be the custom to speak of Robert T. Lincoln as prime presidential material. The son of President Lincoln was an early factor in political life. Hand in appearance, with a gift of eloquence and solid qualities of statesmanship, he hailed from Illinois, the state where the love of politics is inbred. He was a delegate to national conventions. He went to England and made a reputation as minister to the court of St. James. He had a place in the cabinet of President Garfield, and was always consulted in a party council where important matters were up for decision. But of late years Mr. Lincoln has withdrawn from public life, and has been devoting himself almost exclusively to business, so that there is little probability of his being balloted for at the next national convention Noble Critic.

"Aid," added the married man, "think of its trespasses." of the party whose greatest man his father was. The decision of Mr. Lincoln to withdraw himself from politics is generally regretted, for it is no unkindness to the other sons of presidents to say that he was generally considered to be the ablest of them all. Garfield has the best chance, for he is the cabinet of a president who is the head of his party, and he is young enough to up a sentiment that in eight years from the ought to bring him to the fore. Moreover, he comes from Ohio, which has taken the original place of Virginia as Mother of Presidents. THE TWINS. They Had a Ginder in Their Eye and Fussed About It.

"When I went out this afternoon I put one of them on the scales at the grocery, and found they weigh just twenty-six pounds." "Do they always weigh exactly the same?" inquired the neighbor, and Grandmother Harmon looked quite impatient. "The twins?" she said. "Of course; why not?" The neighbor had no reason to give but turned a few days later when in answer to her inquiry Grandmother Harmon said: "Where are the twins? Oh, they got a cinder in one of their eyes, and their mother has taken them down to the oculist's to have it removed, they were fussing so over it."

One of the peculiarities of life in Washington is the existence of official rules which arrange everbody's place. This is in no place more evident than at the White House. There is no appearance of ceremonial, and yet everybody's place is so fixed that nobody can possibly be embarrassed. At the state receptions the order of precedence is regulated by the law of presidential succession passed under Mr. Cleveland's administration. The president, of course, is first. After he comes the vice president. After this vice president just ranks all officials of the United States. The vice president being "his apparent," he precedes at social official functions the ambassadors and ministers. On New Year's day the diplomatic corps is always received first by the president. There is an opinion afloat that the chief justice should rank even an ambassador, but this does not seem to be gaining ground, though at times there are hot controversies over it. The chief justice and the judiciary rank cabinet officials; but they are not expected to stand in line at state receptions at the White House. This is the prerogative of the cabinet. The newspapers sometimes give the impression that all these questions of precedence are the affair of the ladies, and the matters of etiquette are in American fashion. Finally, this is erroneous. A chief justice himself, a general of the army an admiral of the navy would make it a matter for serious consideration were his place taken by another. The governor of a state, by the way, comes after a general in the army or an admiral in the navy. The diplomatists represent their nations, and by courtesy they precede in all countries. The precedence of an ambassador or minister is not a personal matter; he considers the dignity of his sovereign or his country. So careful are the diplomatists—the heads of embassies or legations—that may without offense inquire of a hostess the necessity to accept an invitation where they are to be placed. If there is to be a guest of the hostess country of the ambassador or minister, he must not have the place of honor—the right hand of the hostess—unless he is of the royal family. When Prince Henry visited Washington he took precedence of Baron Speck von Sternburg; but no matter how important any visitor from Germany not of royal blood might be the ambassador could not meet him at dinner and take an inferior place. The British ambassador would rank the duke of Norfolk in Washington, though in his own country he is a commoner, but not a royal duke. The wives of the ambassadors and ministers take the rank of their husbands. An only if a woman—a widow, for instance, give a dinner, the ambassador's wife be taken in to dinner by the most important man in rank. The host takes in the wife of the ambassador and the hostess the ambassador. At dinners given by diplomatists there is no record that the vice-president and the secretary of state have been invited at the same time. The reason is that the secretary of state is constantly in close relations with the diplomatic corps, and a sentiment of delicacy forbids the invitation of the secretary to a dinner where he wished to be by the vice president, with whom the diplomatists have scant relations. The president does not accept invitations to dinners or receptions in the houses of the foreign diplomat. If he should do so he would—in theory, though many of the diplomats houses are in reality owned by Americans—set foot on alien territory. The rule which permits no guest to move until the guest of honor rises is rigidly enforced in Washington. If there is any rule more rigid it is that which obliges everybody to rise when the president enters and to remain silent when the stands. In Washington one finds, as a rule, very good manners. It is probably true that the boys have better manners than the girls—as they have almost everywhere. The whole of team work in athletics is helping the boy to know his place; but the average young girl has learned to believe that her place is on top; where she sits there is the head of the table. New Church for Capital. The Episcopal Church South has undertaken to build in Washington a national church which effect a cathedral of the denominations, its scheme to the Presbyterian cathedral is suggested some time ago by Justice James of the United States supreme court. It is said that a commodious site has already been purchased by the Methodists. The church, it is said, will be under the control of the present Mount Vernon Methodist church, the building is to cost $75,000, of which local church is to raise $75,000 and the denomination is at large the remainder.

Distrust all who would have any one class placed before any other. Other republics have fallen because the unscrupulous have substituted loyalty to clash for loyalty to the people as a whole. —President Roosevelt's speech at Little Rock, Ark. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7, 1907 THE SOUTHERN CRACKER. Very late—but better late than never, the big northern journals are beginning to acquire a correct conception of the actual situation in Dixie. Thus, the Washington Post has an editorial upon THE CRACKER OF THE SOUTH, in which the following occurs: One of the foremost men the South has sent to represent a cotton State at the Capitol said some three or four years ago of his section, "The Cracker is on top." In Mississippi they call them the "red necks." Politically the old South survived the war and held the dominion until the advent of the last decade of the nineteenth century. Then it was that Mr. "Cracker" asserted himself. Mr. Tillman, himself a sort of Rienzi, put himself at the head of the movement in South Carolina and banished from public life Hamptons and Butlers. Perhaps not even Calhoun, or Lowndes, or Hayne, could have withstood his onset with any more success. All of which is in precise accordance with the facta. But the Post in the same editorial doubts that "hundreds" of Republicans voted for GAS - Canton, Ohio.—A general invitation to the people of the United States to attend the ceremonies attendant upon the dedication of the McKinley memorial monument, September 30, has been extended in an address prepared by the executive committee in charge of the arrangements.

JACKBON.N. <u>העובדה</u> אם יש לו אופטימידה לייצוג פונקציות of Pythons of the World. Williams, because it claims that there are no hundreds of Republicans in Mississippi. In this it is entirely wrong; there are not merely hundreds, but thousands in the big lumber camps of the southern part of the state, and, doubtless, many of them voted for Williams, as Varda was an inverteate foe of the lumber interests and had worked strenuously against them. The New York Sun displays a similar ignorance of Southern politics when it says: "Tishomingo and Yalobusha on the Loosacoo and other preincincts of Hillbillyland having been carried by the spruce Vardaman, probably the Hon John Sharp Williams will not become reconciled to the graces of civilization and repeat his acts of poetical neglect and frownsiness. Even if the "margin" of his victory is not of the widest, isn't it wide enough to justify the Yazoo statesman in having at least one suit of clothes sponged and pressed? Now "Yalobusha on the Loosacoo" admires a statesman in direct ratio to his "frownsiness," and John Sharpe was well aware of the fact. He may consent, now that he has been elected, to' have one suit sponged and pressed, but he will reserve that for Washington use, but he won't go swaggering around among his constituents disguised in store clothes. Referring to the 14th Amendment, the Baltimore Sun says: "This amendment provides that 'no state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.' This loosely worded—or, to be more respectful to it, this comprehensive—clause has been made the pretext of overriding state courts and state legislatures. The tendency to this contempt for state authority is on the increase, following the lead of the present Federal Administration." We tail to see a great deal of logic in the argument. The Constitution provided for the establishment of a Supreme Court whose express function it should be to, "override" both state courts and state legislatures should they transcend certain bounds And it is, a fact that several of the states have called upon the Federal government to assume jurisdiction in regard to some matters which, previously, had been considered to be under the exclusive jurisdiction of the states, of which the quarantine regulations are a specific instance. The several states found themselves unable to cope with the situation and invoked the aid of the Federal government. And it seems probable that such aid will be invoked in reference to some other matters which are at present in a very unsatisfactory condition; for instance the divorce evil. All the states have signally failed to secure any satisfactory legislation in reference to that matter; as, on account of the contradictory legislation of adjacent states, their laws are easily evaded and held for naught. The tendency to contempt for state authority is greatly strengthened by the idiotic legislation of several of the Southern legislatures, which seems to be inspired by absolute hatred of railroads, insurance companies and other "Northern contrivances for despoiling the South." CRANKY LEGISLATURE Taken as a whole this legislature will go down in history as the crankiest body that ever met in a legislative assembly this side of the blue law makers of the early days of New England. The Kansas Pops have been put to shame. Of course there were wise and well-balanced men in both houses, but they were in a helpless minority. In the make-up of the dominant element there was a combination of fanaticism, demagogy, railroadfobia and ignorance—Macon (Ga.) Telegraph. The above graphic description which applies to very southern state shows what kind of results may be expected from "red-neck" rule. In some southern states the results are even worse; as for instance in Arkansas where, ever since the meeting of the legislature in 1005, the grand juries have been indicting the ex-emembers for boodling, grafting and receiving bribes. Such a legislature invariably comes in with such a candidate for governor as Hoke Smith. The trial of the Charlotte (N. C.) lynchers resulted in a verdict of not guilty and they were discharged to the great delight of their fellow citizens who rivaled Orchard in lying them out of the scrape. The End of Two Romances (Copyright, by Joseph B. Bowles.) It was a beautiful afternoon. Down the dusty road came a horse so slow that his road scarcely made a sound, while the wide, idly held the lines in his passive hand, and let the horse take his own gait. Judging by his abstracted look, the beauty of the day made no impression upon him, except in a general way; he wore a dark gray traveling suit and a soft felt hat was pushed back on his head, showing a broad brow and clear cut face, from which looked honest gray eyes that had a very sad expression just now. He was thinking of a time two years before when he had ridden down this bare head, and by his side a slender, graceful, laughing, pliant face was raised to his eyes, and whose dark eyes were, he thought, the most beautiful in the world. Life seemed very bright then, but now—how the old world had changed! Two years before, Frederic Smith, M. D. had come down to this quiet neighborhood with a college friend to fish, hunt, and otherwise spend profitably a few weeks' vacation. He was just out of a medical school, had a comfortable fortune in his own right, friends by the score and a contented disposition; what more could a young man wish for? Alas! After two short weeks in Bloomwell, all this changed, and he knew that the things he had counted of value, were nothing to now. What use a fortune, with only himself to support; what use to win a name as 'a prominent physician, there was no one to argue of such a position. So he argued to him and all because one dark-eyed girl laughed at all his compliments, told comical stories of other young M.D. s, and openly declared that young mgn with money seldom won eminent positions. Kate Allen was the only child of Judge Allen, lawyer of Bloomwell, a rich contented country gentleman, with a keen sense of fine Kegtaphyk horizons, and most of all A man in a suit and hat rides a horse over a fence, with a woman in a dress and hat standing beside him. "Aunt Jane, I am So Glad to See You." his pretty daughter Kate, who since her mother's death, had been his constant companion. Then there came a time when Miss Kate's face seemed to take a different expression, and even Aunt Jane Austen, a quiet, little old maid, whose place adjoined the judge's, saw and felt the change. Aunt Jane had known her since she lay in her arms a tiny, laughing baby, when she had spent many happy days with Kate's mother, who was her dearest friend, and after the child was left motherless, she turned in to her mother's friend, who encouraged all her confidences, and who had petted, spolled and loved her all her life. After Frederick Smith came out from Louisville for his vacation, even Aunt Jane saw a change in her favorite, until she came one day, all smiles and blushes, and told her of her promise to marry Fred, and of how very, very happy she was. Fred came that evening looking very proud and handsome, as he told the same story. They were not to be married for a year, and in that time Fred would have established his practice, as Kate said, with youthful confidence. Then came the quarrel and the engagement was broken. She had given him his ring and said she never wanted to hear from him again. And so, after two years' absence Frederick was riding down the road, and paused at a tiny, vine-covered cottage. A woman of uncertain age, but whose hair was almost white, was gathering roses in the garden. The young man threw the lines over a post and was at her side in a moment, a glow of genuine pleasure in his face and shining from his gray eyes. "Aunt Jane, I am so glad to see you," he cried, "and you look just as you did two years ago; how have you been all these long weeks?" She answered that she had been as well as usual, and then they sat down on the vine-covered porch for an old man, who was the master of his life and his practices in the two years he had been away, but through it all, there was a touch of dignity and reserve that somehow did not seem quite natural to Fred, in his memory of the kindly little woman. "Aunt Jane, he said at last. 'How is Mist Allen—Kate?' he added. 'I could not talk of her to anyone but you, nor even you, at first, but I should like to know if she be well and happy. I know she is not married, for I have the Bloomwell papers for that item now.' "Yes," answered the little woman, "she is well and contented, as are most of our lassies in this wholesome little town." Again Fred caught the note of a certain reserve, but he was not to be baffled or restrained from saying all he had intended to say. "You know all about our misunderstanding," he ventured, at last. "Yes, I know," and now there was a decided angry ring to the gentle voice. I have thought, sometimes, "won on a unconscious culprit, 'that I should write again, after a few months, but I suppose Kate did not care as she fancied, and that it better so." "I think, Frederic Smith, you were the one who did not care," said Aunt Jane, roused at last out of her natural calm. "Or you took a strange way to prove your affection; you quarreled, quarried like two silly children that you were, and then you chose to think poor Kate meant all she said in anger. So you needs must take your dignity down, before it could be again insulted, or give my poor girl in chance, had she wished, to get down humbly and ask your forgiveness." "Aunt Jane—why, Aunt Jane!" interrupted the young man, his voice thrilling with indignation. "Surely Kate told you of the letter I wrote as soon as I left her. How could you know that, mean, so unmany?" The little girl in his earnest young face, and she got up, and stood with both hands on his arm. "Fred," she said, "I knew years ago of two lives that were spoiled by just such a foolish mistake; let us right this if we can. Now, tell me all about that letter, for Kate never saw, or heard one word from you since you poured it into his mouth." He answered eagerly, all his face glowing with a sudden hope. "We had quarreled; it commenced with a trifle, but we both grew angry at last, and Kate gave me my ring and sald she never wished to hear from me again, and I was more angry, and turned and left her without a word. After I had cooled down I was as ashamed and sorry as you could wish, and I wrote a letter asking her for help and beginning for another reply, saying that I should leave the next morning, and really know that she meant all she had said, if I had no word from her." "Who took the letter?" interrupted Aunt Jane. "Kate's boy, Isaiah the Prophet, who always carried our notes to each other. He came back in a short time, saying: 'Miss Kate read hit and say, 'no answer.'" "What did she do with the note? I asked. 'To he lift up,' he said. 'She war mighty begged talking ter Marrs about her buggy and bugos and hoth that.' That was surely enough; what more could I do, in justice to myself, but leave?" "Fred," said Aunt Jane, eagerly, "it was all a yarn, I know; I am sure the Prophet lied and Kate never heard of that letter. She has gone away but will be home in a few days, and my dear boy, don't let your false pride make a wreck of her happiness and your own." "Indeed, Aunt Jane, I shall not" he answered, "I had much rather make of that false Prophet." But his face was full of hope and joy as he stooped and kissed the gentle face near him, and Aunt Jane did not look in the least offended. "And now, I must tell you of my business; I am in partnership with a gentleman much older than myself; such a splendid, grand man as he! You would like him, I know, Aunt Jane; he used to be familiar with this town years ago, and said he had met you. Just here the anxious black face of Isahah peered over the white gate, "Mars Fred, sur, I hab some business with you, when Miss Jane done be fro, if you please, sur." "All right," answered the young man, and he added aside to Aunt Jane: "I have some business with him, too, young scoundrel." "Don't kill him, Fred," said she, "for after all, he is Kate's property, and she is fond of him." She atched it in at that light," laughed Fred, "I shall deal with him most tenderly." So remounting his horse he rode slowly down the pike, the small, black negro at his side, who told of how he had lost the last letter sent to Miss Kate and fearing to tell him, had invented the story of its delivery and her answer. "Well, it is all right now," said Fred, after it mentioning the young negro solemnly stick to the trick in the future. "But that first young story of yours made lots of trouble." A few days later Kate came home, and I know the unhappy mistake was made right at last, for I saw the young lovers standing side by side in Aunt Jane's flower garden, and Kate was pinning a rose on Fred's coat, and I knew from their faces that their love story had, after all, had a happy ending, or rather, a beginning. Aunt Jane sat on the vine-covered porch, and near her Fred's partner, a handsome man of 50, and they seemed to be in most earnest conversation, and the bakers better understood, for Aunt Jane's announcement after 20 years of waiting, was at last completed. Grows Like a Booster Kansas City, Mo.-Mrs. Josie Addington, of 1041 East Third Street, was in the juvenile court complaining about the way one of the neighbors cares for his children. "That father gets drunk," she said. "That drunk does he get?" Judge Goodrich asked. "Awful drunk." "What does he do?" "What does he do?" "Well, one thing he does when he gets awful drunk is to run up and down the alley and crow like a rooster." *Lea and Brain Power.* Prof. Anderson Stuart, who fills the chair of physiology in the University of Sydney, has broached a novel theory.

The Great Race Scene from "Bedford's Hope" at the Grand Next Week Among the newest and best plays recently produced is "Bedford's Hope," an American drama of the golden west; a play by an American author, who has rather outdone himself and others by infusing a scene which is a marvelous mechanical effect and one that has created a sensational and truly realistic race. It is a train of airbars and a practical automobile. Of the play proper, it possesses an exhilarating Western flavor and of the sort that is natural and healthy. An exceptionally large cast is required, and for the immense race scene over fifteen expert stage mechanics are necessary to set andoperate it. This play is without question the most novel, out-of-the-ordinary drama of the year, and will be seen at the Grand next week, commencing Sunday matinee, Sept. 8. Messrs.

Mrs. Arthur Lowe Cut Off in the Springtime of Life. "Verily, in the midst of life, we are in death." This old saying was terribly verified on Thursday of this week when Mrs. Arthur Lowe, nee Minnie Duncan, who lacked five days of life, was suddenly called from earth to glory. Just one week before she gave birth to her first born, a 12½-bound boy. She and the bow were getting on and off the ground, and traced a cold. She was at St. Joseph's Hospital at the time and was looking forward to an early return home, and was in the best of spirits. The cold turned into pneumonia, and in spite of all that the best medical care was given, she passed away in agony. She was but 21 years of age, and was one of the finest looking young women of the city, full of health and vigor. She was the possessor of a magnificent soprano voice, with which she had on many occasions charmed large audible life, and sad to think it is stilled in death. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. Duncan, are heart broken, as also is her young husband. In fact, everyone who knew her in life mourns her sudden and untimely demise. Her funeral will be held at Pilotrim Baptist church on tomorrow afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. "HELLO, BILL!" The Minnesota Delegation Captures the Elks Grand Lodge for St. Paul. Last week the National Grand Lodge of Improved Benevolent Protective Order of Elks of the World was held at Chicago. There were about 100 delegates and 40,000 visitors present, and the biggest time after Americans had in Chicago was the result. Minneapolis sent a delegates from Gopher Lodge No. No. 105, St. Paul, T. H. Lyles, Sam- Defective Page uel G. Thompson, I. Welborne, Ames Lodge No. 106, Minneapolis, sent C. H. Hinds and C. W. Dwyer, Zenith Lodge No. 110' Duluth, sent albert Johnson, and there were a number of mischievatic Elks who helped to help them. They had a very large time in Chicago. The Grand Lodge was intended to be in session for three days, but lasted five days and two nights. The meeting went with the main object in capturing the Grand Lodge meeting of 1908, and they worked like beavers and succeeded. The invitation was extended by S. G. Thompson, Esq., for the things beavers had to storm. Boston, Cleveland, affluent and Richmond were competitors for the honor of entertaining the august body, but St. Paul beat them all and secured the coveted prize and the meeting will be held in the Saintly last week of August of next year. Some idea may be gained of the magnitude of such a meeting when it is told that there were 348 automobiles and carriages, over 500 footmen and bands in the great parade at Chicago, and over 400 present at the grand ball at Tatter-sall's. It is safe to say that there will be 25,000 visitors in St. Paul next year. Besides the work of the delegates named above, much credit is due for the work of the Griffith, the diplomatic and arduous labors of W. W. Goodwin, Grand Deputy; D. C. Cotton, Andy Combs, S. R. Walker, N. H. Casey, J. H. Hickman, Jr., M. Johnson, J. H. Shepherd, James H. Johnston, John Shaw, Roots, Chess O'Neil, Robt. Wawr, R. Dillard, H. H. Hamilton. The Minnesota delegation was quite conspicuous in the parade, being led by the great 8th Regiment Band. The delegation was also entertained by the mayor of Manhattan mobile party, taking in Manhattan Beach, Sans Souci and the White City. In the party were: Grand Secretary J. W. Holmes, Grand Est. Loyal Kt. John Brown, Grand Esq. Shoecroft, Jas Jas, Carson, Shoecroft, W. J. Woolley, Editor J. K. Marshall. All returned home highly elated with the treatment they received and with their success. The Grand Officers were elected as follows: R. W. E. Atkins; G. E. L. K, F. J. Hankey; K. K, John Calloway; G. E. L. K, H. Phillips; G. S. J, W. Holmes; G. T, C. H. Brandy; G. E, M. Shoecraft; G. I. G, T, Frazer. The Grand Lodge will be entertained by Gopher, Ames, and Zentih Lake, who will live in our city, all joining hands to give the members a royal welcome. DR. D. FANTLEROY.

Mrs. Harriett Murphy, for whom Mr. Geo. H. Evans has almost completed the most modern and up-to-date flats ever owned by an Afro-American of the Northwest, is an example of what an Afro-American can and will not unaided by an educational artist. Mrs. Murphy is a native of Kentucky, but came to Central Illinois as early as 1846 with her husband. Mr. Murphy's first job was for $10 per month, but with the aid of his wife, they were able to purchase several homes in the city at that time, which ranged from $2 $ per acre. Mrs. Murphy lived on this farm nearly 50 years and gained the reputation in that community, of being all that is representative of thrift and energy. She is the mother of the biography of the Enterprise Closing Agent Co. 536 St. Anthony avenue are the first flats to be erected in St. Paul by an Afro-American carpenter, owned by an Afro-American and to be occupied by Afro-American tenants. Mrs. Murphy respectfully invites her friends to inspect her flats and be self-conscious. Mr. Evans' ability as a contractor and builder is an indisputable fact.

The rules and regulations which environ unmarried girls in France are exceptionally strict when compared with those of England or America. On the other hand, compared with the social laws of Spain, I think those of France are favorable to the jeune fille. I have personal knowledge of a case in which a young Spanish girl was beaten and kissed by a young man and because—in consequence of this small indiscrepancy—her life had been made unbearable by her relatives—Paris Correspondence The Madame. Bird Builds Nest in Clock. Occasionally one see a small crowd congregated at the corner of Baltimore and Light streets gazing intently up at the old clock frame that still stands there as a relic of the fire. An enterprising bird has built its nest in the part where the top of the column joins the lock face. It has a secure home, and seems to live quite undisturbed by the clatter and bustle of Baltimore's busiest street. Concentrated Beer. A Danish engineer, after several years of experiment, has evolved an invention for concentrating beer in a hard substance which, dissolved in water, gives a good beverage. One and a half kilos contain eighteen liters after dissolution. This beer is called a "bottled beer" and the vendor has succeeded in producing with success different serts of beer, including ale and stout "It is a peculiar sensation a man has when he is hypnotized, isn't it?"

J. comes the story of Lewis Albert, an engineer at the mines, says the New York Herald, who for the sake of a goose's life, risked his own for fully forty minutes in a daring and sensational manor. He fled over the fence of its coop, flapped its wings, flew over the opening of the shaft, which is 700 feet deep, fell into the black hole and disappeared. On the following day persons passing the shaft heard sepulchral crates proceeding from some subterranean source. Kemple heard the sounds and learned of the goose's plight. The oil boisting apparatus was examined and found to be useless and the problem arose as to how the bird was to be rescued. One man lowered a hook and line, to which was attached a rope, the rope would not bite. Then Albert took a rope and selecting a group of miners, he bade them lower him into the mine. Albert got down about 200 feet and a minute later there was a fierce honekling, followed by a signal to pull up with the struggling bird in his arms. HOW TO SEAL LETTERS Combined Use of Wafer and Wax Prevents Tampering. It is often very desirable to know how to seal a letter so that it cannot be opened without betraying the fact. Steam or hot water will open envelopes closed with mucilage and even a wet seal. A split lid disolves sealing wax, an impression in plaster have been taken of the seal. By the combined use of wafer and sealing wax, however, all attempts to open the letter otherwise than by force can be frustrated. All that is necessary is to close the letter first with a small moist wafer and to piece the latter with a coarse needle (the needle should be used to sealing wax may be used in the usual manner. This seal can neither be opened by dry heat or by moisture —Chicago News. Money Not Happiness "Clara," asked a lady of an old school friend whom she was visiting, "how is your husband getting on?" "Miserably," answered the wife, "Why, how is that? "Oh, yes," answered the wife, "John is making a lot of money. Some people call him rich, but I call him poor. When we began life, we read together;" *we* had our church; we had our social hours with friends. Now John has sold himself to work. He has no evenings. He has no Sundays. He puts everything back into his business and puts all of himself into it, and is a perfect slave." Every day we need to remind ourselves" writes John T. Cowan in the Christian Endeavor World, "that the real joys of life are in the things that money cannot buy; that the rich and the poor are all alike in the essential possibilities of their lives."

Is Not So Simple an Operation as Some Would Believe Some Would Believe. Washing. paint is not quite so simple an operation as the venders of ready-mixed paints sometimes claim. Painted woodwork can generally be washed successfully with water containing a little ammonia, but painted wall surfaces are a different matter. As a rule plastered wall surfaces, when finished in oil paint, have the last coat "fatted" by mixing it with turpentine. As a flatted coat dries without gloss it conceals the unevenness of the plastering, which would be shown at once by the irregular deflections from a shining surface, and is therefore popular with builders. But it is gritty and catches and retains much dirt in consequence, and it is very difficult to wash. If treated with soap and water in the ordinary way the wall, after the work is completed, will show glossy streaks. These are due to the partial drying of the soapy water on the surface, and I order to avoid then the water must be wiped off at once with a soft cloth before it has time to dry. The proper way to wash such paint is to take a sponge in one hand and a soft cloth in the other and go over the wall, sponging and wiping alternately. Plain, "oil finished" paint, or "egg-shell finished," which is all varnish can be washed much more easily and successfully than a flatted coat; but even with these it is best not to allow soapy water to dry on the surface. NURSE WAS CAREFUL. Had Good Reason for Not Attending the Picnic. "John Alexander Dowie," said a Zion City man, "had a grand knack of putting things quantify and forcibly. "At one of his last meetings here he attacked the modern mother of society, the mother who neglects he-children. "Why," he said, "I overheard the most remarkable conversation be tween two nursemids on a car yesterday. "Are you going to the picnic? asked the first nursemaid. "Why not?" cried the first. 'And you so fond, too, of picnics and dancing and young men and all that there!' "Oh, said the other nursemaid, 'I'd love deeply to go, dearly; but, to tell you the truth I'm afraid to leave the baby with its mother.' Describing Nothing. Little four-year-old Bessie and her little friend Margaret one bright morning were sitting in the back part of the church while the reverend father was reading mass. They soon began to get restless and before long were making considerable commotion. This greatly annoyed the good father, and as soon as he was through with the service he hurried to the tots to reprimand them. The little ones were so busily engaged that they did not notice him until he was standing beside them. "What are you doing here. children?" he commanded. "Tell me, then, what is nothing?" said the good man. Bessie looked up seriously and after a moment's pause, said: "Shut your eyes tight, father, and you'll see it." Hot Sea Baths. Salt water, so strengthening ordinarily, is most weakening when too warm. On most ocean boats there is an abundance of warm water in the bath rooms, and the daily, salt bath is a great tonic, but beware of getting it too hot. It will turn you faint if you do, even if you are accustomed to an equally high temperature in fresh water at home. Oliver Herford, who is equally famous as poet, illustrator, and brilliant wit, was entertaining four magazine editors at luncheon when the bell rang, and a maid entered with the mail. "Ah," said the editor, "an epistle." "No," said Mr. Herford, tearing open the envelope—"not an epistle, a collect." "Why do you insist on making speeches?" asked the man of quiet nature. "You have no new arguments to offer." "No," answered the new congressman, "but I want to get a reputation so that I can go on the lecture platform." Offer to Salvation Army.
