Treat each man according to his worth as a man. Distrust all who wish 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, DECEMBER 21, 1907. AN ATTRACTION FOR SUNDAY SCHOOL PUPILS. One of the most recent cases of lynching, that of William Burns, accused of the murder of a patrolman, took place in Cumberland, Md., and was marked by some unusual features. One was that it occurred in the presence of the judge of the judicial district. Others were these. The real murderers took the suspected murderer from the jail and hanged him in the rear of the court house. They tore the telephone from the walls and cut the wires, in order that the deputy sheriff might not summon assistance. They broke the gas pipes and nearly asphixiated 26 other prisoners. They wore no masks. By order of court, the undertaker held the body over, with the following results. "This evening the undertaker closed the morgue to the curious throng, and they almost broke down the door. He was obliged to open the door and admit the crowd. It is estimated that at least 10,000 people viewed the half-nude body today, including Sunday school children." The atrocity of the murder will attract but little attention. But the M. H. SENATOR ALBERT J. HOPKINS. Who Has Presented Bill for a $5,000,000 West Side Postoffice at Chicago Illinois Senator Wins Approval of Postmaster General and it is Likely the Bill Will Pass. Who Has Presented Bill for a $5,000,000 West Side Postoffice at Chicago—Illinois Senator Wins Appointment of Postmaster General and it is Likely the Bill Will Pass. fact that the mob assumes that the right to destroy gas fixtures, telephones and other property which stands in the way of carrying out its designs, is included in the greater right to carry out a lynching, may attract some attention. Moreover, some few people may have doubts as to whether or not the morals of Sunday school children are improved by viewing the body of a half-nude man. the Swaraj or home rule propaganda they find only a menace to their own future influence in Indian society. The close analogy of the situation to that existing down in Dixie cannot fail to strike the most casual observer. Governor Vardaman is the most eminent pleaderlog down in that part of the country and he says that the 15th Amendment is a sham and a delusion and proposes to cut i BEING PUNISHED NOW The newspapers give the following account of the conditions in a portion of Europe: Portugal, Spain and the south of France are sufferers in common. Over great stretches of country water stands twenty-five feet deep or more. The inhabitants are living in the tops of their houses and communicate with one another by means of rudely constructed boats. Commerce is at a standstill, agriculture has been abandoned, the people are idle, and starvation will soon overtake them if the waters do not recede. Hundreds of persons have already fled the country and others are following them every day. Mountains are crumbling under the onslaught of incessant rain, and in Savoie a great overhanging cliff is about to precipitate itself upon the village of Tormery, a thousand feet below. A somewhat noted reasoner has said that individuals, being immortal, need not be punished for their sins in this life, but that nations having no future term of existence must be punished now. All of the nations mentioned have been ringleaders in cruelty to the colored races from time immemorial. Is the above post hoc, aut propter hoc? MAKES YANKEES PAY The Richmond Times-Dispatch says: "Senator Tillman is a very stern man, but he has his sense of humor, and he is reported to have confided to a South Carolina audience that he made the Yankees pay him well for the privilege of hearing him call them a lot of hypocrites on the race question." It may accord with Senator Tillman's ideas of decency to pursue the course indicated in the above extract, but it is not probable that he will find many admirers outside of the office of the T-D. Some people would be uncharitable enough to say that the incident reminded them of a pole-cat. The latest news from India is as follows: The "pleaderlog" (lawyer folk) and the congrosswallahs are disgusted with the proposed reforms, which they characterize as a sham and a delusion, because, presumably, so far from seeing therein a realization of J. Chairman of the Republican National Committee, Who Has Spent the Week in Chicago, Making Arrangements for the National Convention. the Swaraj or home rule propaganda, they find only a menace to their own future influence in Indian society. The close analogy of the situation to that existing down in Dixie cannot fail to strike the most casual observer. Governor Vardaman is the most eminent pleaderlog down in that part of the country and he says that the 15th Amendment is a sham and a delusion and proposes to cut it out, while Jeff Davis and John Temple Graves, the two great congresswallahs, propose to reform everything but themselves, and make this a country fit to live in. Prosecuting Attorney Rhoton refuses to accept the aid of former Gov. Jeff Davis in the prosecution of the legislative boodle investigation that has been in progress for two years. Rhoton charges that at the beginning of the investigation Davis insisted that T. L. Cox and M. D. L. Cook be promised immunity if they furnished evidence to indict one certain man, and asked him to assure them that if in giving such evidence they so far incriminated themselves as to make their conviction imperative he would pardon them before they could be placed in the penitentiary. From all of which, it is fair to conclude, that Jeffries will be a great honor to the Senate. At Little Rock, Federal Judge Treiber "knocked out" the noted Wingo Act, which imposes a burden of taxation upon foreign corporations operating in the state and denies them the right to remove a cause to a federal court. Judge Treiber held that corporations who had for years been operating in the state under former laws did so not by a mere license, but by virtue of a contract between them and the state, the obligations of which could not be impaired. The incident affords ground for hoping that in course of time, Southern legislatures will not spend so much of their time in idiotic legislation. In a recent discourse, a Chicago minister gave utterance to the following admirable sentiment: The true citizen is the cosmopolitan; the great heart has room for all the world; he is not a free man who does not seek freedom for all mankind; he does not understand liberty who does not want enough of it to go all the way around. There are 700,000 Jews in New York city and not an able-bodied among them. Of 2,100 students in the College of New York, 1,900 are Jews, and, in the Normal College, 75 per cent of the students are Jewish girls, which indicates that in a few years a majority of the teachers will be of that race. HEIGHT OF WAVES. Frenchman Says Observation From the Decke of Shine-Creation Winery Decks of Ships Creates illusion. M. Bertin, a Frenchman, has been making new observations of the size of ocean billows. He says they are greatly overestimated when the term "mountainous" is applied to them. The longest waves he measured were 2,500 feet from crest to crest, he says, and their average duration was 23 seconds. They were not very high, only about fifty feet or one-fifth of their span. Indeed, he of the opinion that the greatest height ever reached by waves in open water is fifty feet, and he accounts for higher estimates by saying that they have heretofore been observed for the most part from the decks of ships, and the perspective effect resulting from looking up along the slopes has misled the eye and judgment. When waves become breakers, striking against some obstacle, there is no doubt that great masses of water are hurled to a height of 100 feet and volumes of spray are flung and blown still higher. Very few waves 2,500 feet long and 50 feet high are ever encountered, he adds. In average bad weather the waves run from 160 to 320 feet from crest to crest, and their height seldom exceeds 33 feet. Their duration is not over 6 to 8 seconds. The Useful Poppy. The florist was still pale from the Easter rush, but he/had earned a great deal of money, and that made him talkative. "Roses and lilies yield," he said, "cologne, and violet petals, candied, are edible, but the most useful of all flowers is the poppy. "The juice of the poppy gives us opium. The seed is pleasant and nutritious—poppy seed cake is one of the best cattle foods. And the oil answers a hundred purposes. It is used to mix artist's colors, to cook with (like olive oil), to make soap and in lamps. "Truly, beside the industrious poppy, the idle lily and the rose must hang their heads." We Keep on Buying Gems. We keep on buying gems. Despite the fact that the importation of precious stones at the port of New York in February a year ago exceeded all previous records by more than $500,000, the gem importations for the month just passed beat February, 1906, by about $1,200,000, the amount being valued in all at $4,275-300, which is not only the largest amount for any February, but one of the greatest amounts ever brought in in a single month. Of this the cut precious stones and pearls amounted to $3,456,284, while the value of the uncut stones, principally diamonds, $19,106. January and February have started off as record-breaking months in jewel importations. Strange Story of Lost Child. A mother living on a homestead in the bush near Louth, New South Wales, lost her little girl, then two and a half years old, about four years ago. The child had wandered in search of flowers, and no trace could be found of her. News came lately that a little white child had been found in a black's camp in Southwest Queensland. Photographs of the girl were forwarded, which, in spite of the change that time and a nomadic life had made, the mother recognized, and her child has now been restored to her. Big Reward for a Coyote. A big coyote that has been destroying many sheep on the Nelson, Coil and other ranges was bagged on Wednesday after a five-hour chase. On Tuesday night the coyote killed eleven sheep on the Nelson range and six more on the same range the following night. Previously it had been working destruction among the flocks of F. F. Laugenour. The rewards offered by the various sufferers and the bounty offered by the county will aggregate $100. The dogs taken out could not catch the coyote, but they chased it in the range of Russ Strong's rifle and he killed it SOUTH AFRICAN TEMPLES. Great Areas Enclosed by Solidly Built Stone Walla. The temple ruins at Rhodesia are puzzlers. The erudite folks used to say they were ancient; but Dr. Randall Maciviers, their latest explorer, says they were built in the Middle Ages. He says the great "elliptical temple" was the fortified residence of the great chief or Monomortapa, whose sway extended over an enormous area and an extensive population. To understand how architectural feats like the finer Rhodesian buildings can have been achieved by the precursors of the modern South African natives it is necessary to assume that in those days there was organization of a far higher character than has obtained in recent years, organization under great chiefs whose power and intelligence were of a relatively high order. From the Portuguese and their records this would appear to have been the case in the days of the Monomortapan empire of the Middle Ages down to the close of the sixteenth-century The organization of labor implied by the elaborate and decorated stone architecture is remarkable. Even more remarkable than the fortified castles are the terrace walls. These stone built walls form irregular concentric rings around the hills upon which the villages were situated, and, although structurally simple, cover an enormous area, extending in close formation over a space of upward of fifty square miles.

The "rail splitters" of South Missouri and Arkansas were fast being turned into prize Berkshires and Polands by what or whom the farmer did not know until a few days ago, when the woods were filled with the song of the seventeen year locusts. Black Larks in England. At the last meeting of the British Ornithologist* club three examples of the black lark were exhibited which had been recently captured in this country. These are the first recorded examples for Great Britain, and were probably driven over by stress of weather, which during January was exceptionally severe and told heavily on the birds. The female of the black lark bears a strong superficial resemblance to the sky lark; but the male is very much handsomer, wearing a livery of black, though this is obscured during the autumn and winter months by rusty brown fringes to the feathers.

A Scene From Texas at the Grand Next Week. "Texas," which will be the Christmas attraction at the Grand, starting Sunday matinee, Dec. 22, is a cleverly written story of life of the South-western plains. The author has written well and intelligently of the people of the Lone Star state, and has made of the play a panorama of life in Texas, the same as Way Down East" and "The Old Homestead" is of the New England state and through its homely beauty will probably live along with those plays for many years. Today the stage wants realism; to be successful it must be authentic. "Texas" is a success because it is authentic, every setting, every costume is absolutely correct. The old well sweeps, the fences and every prop is brought from Buck Head Ranch, Val Verde county, where the scenery or the costumes, the chaps, high-heeled boots and spurs all come from there, and many of them have been in actual service on that ranch. The management has surrounded the production with everything that will give to it the proper Western atmosphere, a competent cast of people, matched by the dramatic world will continue to interpret the lines. Matteo will be on Sunday, Christmas and Saturday, also a special bargain matinee on Friday. If you see furs you like Anywhere else You'll find them better At Albrecht's Sixth and Minnesota Streets sued. The gentlemen of the club intend to excel all other efforts.

St. James's news reporter was late in game last week and that accounts for the last week and news of St. James in this popular sheet. It is wonderful how interest in a thing of any kind can be aroused when some one starts it up. The revival of church advertisement commenced by St. James two years ago and that accounts for the title of THE APPEAL, has reached all of the churches in the Twin Cities, with one or two exceptions. No preacher ought to be so self conceited or foolish enough to think that his poor, little sermons can reach the people that the editor of these notes listened to our several occasions, as is his custom, in boosting race enterprises emphasized this help the church gets from the press, and urged the people to read THE APPEAL and subscribe the best agency the race has in St. Patricks with race progress. St. James's services were, as usual, full of interest and well attended all day. One accession to membership. The twelve class leaders have gone to work in earnest and already the Friday night.

Overshrew lawyers often furnish their adversaries with weapons. "Did you see this tree that has been mentioned by the roadside?" an advocate inquired. "Yes, sir, I saw it very plainly." "It was conspicuous, then?" The witness seemed puzzled by the new word. He repeated his former assertion. "What's the difference," sneered the ous? But he was hoist with his own lawyer, "between plain and conspicuperted. The witness innocently answered: "I can see you plainly, sir, among the other lawyers, though you are not a bit conspicuous." In another witness a blow directed against the character of a witness forcibly recited. "You were in company of these people," he was asked. "Of two friends, sir." "Friends—two thieves, I suppose you mean." "That may be true," was the dry retort: "they are both lawyers." reform; 'they are both lawyers.' The blow that destroys the effect of an adverse examination is occasionally more the result of accident than conscious effort. In a trial not long ago a very simple witness was in the box, and, after going through his ordeal, was ready to retire. One question remained. "Now, Mr. —, has not an attempt been made to induce you to tell the court a different story?" "A different story to what I have told, sir?" "Yes. Is it not so?" "Yes, sir." "Upon your'oath, I demand to know who the persons are who have attempted this." "Well, sir, you've tried as hard as any of 'em," was the unexpected answer. Big Tree for Kansas. There is a legend outside of Kansas that there are no trees in the state, or if any, they are scrubs and will not furnish shade for a yearling cal. This story was shattered recently by the woodmen who were clearing up some land for the school, six miles northwest of Lawrence. A giant cottonwood was felled and the log measured 6 feet 4 inches in diameter. The body of the tree was cut into nine-foot logs, and one of them broke down the wagon upon which it was loaded. The tree grew near the banks of the Kaw river, and the woodman chopped it down. The chopper got logs three and a half feet in diameter from some of the limbs—Lawrence Gazette. While it is, of course, a plattitude to say that a wise teacher learns by instructing others," recently observed an instructor in a preparatory school in Brooklyn. "it is permissible to remark that he frequently picks up some curious information in this way. "I once asked a boy to explain, if he could, the difference between animal instinct and human intelligence. It was a pretty hard question, but it was easy." He said, "If we had instinct, he said, 'we should know everything we needed to know without learning it; but we've got reason, and so we have to study ourselves 'most blind, or be a fool.'" Martin Luther and his wife were making up. "But, you called me a devil," she urged. "My dear," replied the conscientious reformer, "I did that so I could explain that little episode of the inkstand without telling a lie." The apology was considered perfectly satisfactory. Champagne. "So the colonel told you a good story down at the club?" "Yes, and it was received with rounds and rounds of laughter." "And was the colonel pleased?" "Not at all. He said it was no use of telling a good story for rounds of laughter unless they were 'bottled laughter.'" Algerian Natural Cave. An immense natural cave of much beauty has been discovered underlying three of the principal streets of Constantine, Algeria. The interior is of dazzling white stone, formed by the forces of nature into all kinds of fan-shaped formations. There are three ponds, the water being jukewarm and crowded with fish. "See here," cried the cat, "are you really determined to drown me?" "I am," replied the man. "You killed our canary, and I believe in a life for a life." You must be bent upon taking nine lives for a life." That the "Mammoth Grocery" of the Yerxa Bros. Company, corner Hennepin avenue and Seventh street, is the best in the city as a public perveyor, few people will deny. There one may get everything edible that's on the list. The management and service of its big establishment has the largest, largest or small, receive the same prompt treatment. The quality and prices of all goods are right and satisfaction is guaranteed.
