The Proving of Je The Proving of Jerry By RALPH HENRY BARBOUR. "I am awfully sorry," said Ned Gaynor earnestly, "but it n't as though you had been blackballed, Jerry." "I don't see what difference it makes," replied Gerald Hutton, disconsolately. "I don't get taken in, do I?" "No; but when a fellow's name is 'postponed' he can try again any time. If he's blackballed he a goner until next year." "Oh, well, I don't want to join the old Lyecem anyhow," said his roommate with a scowl. "Yes you do," responded Ned, "and I want you to. And I'm going to bring your name up again just as soon as I think there is a chance of getting you elected." "When will that be?" asked Jerry dubiously, Ned hesitated. "I don't know, Jerry," he answered finally. "You see, it's like this: The Lyecem is the only society we have here at Winthrop, and it's small; only thirty members, you know, while there are over seventy fellows in school this year. So, of course, there are lots of chaps who want to get in. And when it comes to selecting members the society naturally tries to get the best." "Which means I am not one of the best," said Jerry with a grin. "No, it doesn't," replied his roommate. "It means that you aren't very well known yet." "Shucks," said Jerry. "I've been here ever since the academy opened in September, and I know pretty nearly every fellow in school to speak to." "Yes, but you—you haven't proved yourself." "What do you mean by 'proved myself?' asked Jerry, frowning. "Well, I can't explain very well, but you haven't--haven't done anything to show what you are." "What the dickens do you expect me to do? Ned? Burn down Academy hall? Chuck one of the faculty into the river." "Oh, you know what I mean," answered Ned a trifle impatiently. "Sooner or later every fellow who amounts to anything does something worth while, like getting a scholarship or making the eleven or nine. Then he's proved himself; see?" he did, do my best," replied Jerry disconcertedly. "I worked like a slave for two weeks trying to make the eleven." "I know," replied Ned hopefully, "but maybe you'll get on the nine. If you did that you'd make the lycum easy, Jerry." "I dare say. But I'll never get on the nine while Herb Welch is captain of it," answered Jerry. "He doesn't care for me, Ned." "I guess that's so," said Ned, reflectively. "The fact is, Jerry, it was Herb who objected to your election into the lycum." "I suspected as much," Jerry answered dryly. "He's hated me ever since I interfered the time he was ducking young Gordon. Gordon couldn't swim and he was so scared as was as white as that block of paper." "Well, it was pretty cheeky for a sophomore to lay down the law to a senior, you know," said Ned. "And it was pretty mean of a senior to haze a freshman, wasn't it?" Jerry demanded. "Anyhow, I spoiled his fun for him." "And got ducked yourself," laughed the other. "That was all right. I was better able to take them into Georgetown. Ever since then Welch has had it for me.

I'll get you elected before class day, Jerry. Grab your skates and come on down to the river." "Skates!" exclaimed Jerry. "Why you can't skate to the. Ice is all breaking up. Look at it!" "There's plenty of ice along this bank," answered Ned, cheerfully, "and as it may be the last chance I'll get to skate I'm going to make the most of it. I promised Tom Thurber and Herb Welch I'd meet them at four. I must get a move on. You'd better come along, Jerry. But Jerry shook his head, staring mournfully at the dreary process of wet campus and slushy road. A mile away the little town of Peterboro lay straggling along the River, the chinmums of its three or four factories sprouting thick black smoke into the heavy air. Jerry was disappointed. It meant a good deal to win election to the Lyceum, and in spite of what he had told Ned, he had all along entertained a sneaking idea that he would make it, Welch or No Welch. He wondered whether Ned couldn't have got him in if he had tried real hard. Ned and he were very good friends, even though they had never met until they had been roomed together in the fall, but Jerry was a new boy still, Welden was a junior and had known Herb Welch three years. "I suppose," he thought, "Ned didn't want to offend Welch. Much he cares whether I elected or not!" "Coming?" asked Ned, pausing at the door. Jerry shook his head. over to town and get some things." Ned slammed the door behind him and went clattering down the stairs, and presently Jerry got into the sweater and followed. It was a good twenty-minute walk to the village. By keeping along the river path to the bridge he might have saved something in time and distance, but the river path was ankle deep in shush and mud, while the road, although longer, gave firmer foothold. When he reached the old wooden bridge he paused and watched the water rushing between the stone pillars. He had never seen the stream so high. The surface appeared scarcely eight feet beneath the floor of the bridge. Huge cakes of ice, broken loose up stream, went tearing by, grinding against each other and hurling themselves at the worn surface, turning to the right at the end of the bridge into the main street of the town. His purchases did not take him long, and soon he was back at the bridge again. Up stream, on the academy side of the river, he could see the skaters. Apparently half the school was on the ice. At the end of the bridge Jerry decided to take the river path. He felt rather more cheerful with his tramp and told himself that if there was time he would run up to the room, leave his purchases, get his skates and join the group on the ice. He had left the bridge a full quarter of a mile behind when a sudden com motion amongst the skaters attracted his attention. He stopped and watch-intently, but for a moment saw nothing to account for the actions of the fellows who had congregated along the edge of the ice. Then several of them turned and skated frantically toward the bank. At that instant a single figure came into view, a figure huddled on hands and knees a full fifty feet away from his companions.

Then the huddled figure was swept further away toward opposite shore and a clear expanse of water beached he tween it and those on the ice. One of the fellows had ventured too far, the ice on which he stood had broken away and now he was being borne swiftly down the stream. Already the current had swept him away from all hope of assistance from his companions, for up there the channel ran close to the Petersboro shore. treacherous craft shot, crushing and grinding, into the maelstrom, found his feet for a moment and threw his arm above his head, his hands clutching frantically at the empty air. Then a corner of the ice slab struck a pillar and he lost his balance. But in that brief moment Jerry's left hand had found one of his wrists, and now he hung between the bridge and water, swinging slowly and limply. Then Jerry's right hand found a THE REVIVAL "MAKE-U Necessitated by the and the The success of detective His feet slipped in the ice and slush of the path, and it was slow going. Once he fell fat on his face, but was up again in a twinkling, wet and bruised. With his breath almost failing him, Jerry reached the bridge and ran out upon it. He was none too soon. Close to the further shore the jagged fragment still held together as it dipped and turned, glancing from the jutting points of the shore ice and A man lifts a child on his skates. "Let me go Hutton," said Welch quietly. "You can't hold me here." grinding between its fellows in the ugly green torrent. Face down lay the boy, limp, his hands outthrown beside him. Under the bridge the river ran with a loud, rushing sound, swift and relentless. Jerry ran with aching limbs to the third span, bracing which the current was bolted, the bolted huddled figure. In the brief moment of time left him Jerry noted two things. One was that those in the van of the straggling line hurrying along the river path were but a couple of hundred yards distant. The other was that his left shoulder was aching dully. He must, he thought, have struck it when he fell. Then his gaze was on the motionless form sweeping toward him and he was leaning over the wooden rail, his hands at his mouth. "Stand up!" he cried with all his might. But there was no answering movement from the boy. Jerry's heart sank, but once more he shouted, putting, as it seemed to him, every remaining bit of breath into his call. "Stand up and I'll save you!" The head raised and a white face gaze at him, the narrowing seated the knee in fragment. With a gasp of surprise Jerry looked down into the horrificstruck eyes of Herbert Welch. Then he laid himself down on the floor of the bridge, his head and shoulders over the water. "Stand up!" he called again. And Welch staggered weakly to his knees, the ice beneath him tilting perilously. Jerry's hands stretched down over the rushing water. "Catch hold!" he cried. Catch nold!" he cried. He a momentary return of hope and courage came to Welch, and as his Fickle Fancies. He lounges in an easy chair. And builds castles in the air. Such home, I ween.

Then a corner of the ice slab struck a pillar and he lost his balance. But in that brief moment Jerry's left hand had found one of his wrists, and now he hung between the bridge and water, swinging slowly and limply. Then Jerry's right hand found a hold below his left, and he set his teeth and closed his eyes, praying, as he had done before on the river path, for strength and endurance. The strain was terrible. He felt the blood rushing and throbbing to his head. His left shoulder hurt worse every moment. Surely the others would be here in just a second? He thought he beneath and the ribbing of the water beneath and the ribbing in his head made it uncertain. Then he heard Herb Welch speaking. "Let me go, Hutton," said Welch quietly. "You can't hold me here." Jerry tried to answer, but the pressure against his chest was too severe. His left hand began to slip from Welch's wrist; the fingers wouldn't hold; there was a strange numbness from hand to shoulder. With a smothered groan he tried to tighten his clasp again. Then help came. Eager hands took his burden and he felt himself being pulled back from the edge. He glanced up once and had a glimpse of somber twilight and Ned's white face. When he opened his eyes again he was lying on a couch in a cottage at the edge of the village. There were several figures about him and one was Ned's. He smiled and tried to rise, but was glad to the back again and look curiously at his bandaged shoulder. "It's a husted collarbone, said Ned. 'Doctor says it will be all right in two or three weeks. We're going to take you back in a minute. The carriage is coming now." "That's nice," said Jerry, drowsily. "How's Welch?" "Not hurt a bit.

"Husbands," said the bachelor maid, "serve one purpose that makes me almost envy married women." "And that is," "When he married woman is afraid to say 'No,' or wishes a moral issue, she lays the blame on her husband. She invariably says, 'My husband will not permit me to,' or 'John never would permit me to do that,' or 'My dear, you have no idea how peculiar John is about such matters. If I could do as I pleased, my dear, I should be delighted to give you a check for the Old Ladies' home, but really, my dear, John is quite impossible on these subjects—when you know all the time that John a meek, obedient creature, who never is competent, any subject whatever, and who, is he, be asked, mumble hustily. Do whatever you think best, my dear. You know I always leave such matters to you, and then would for an hour how she had happened to ask him about it anyway. "I do not mean that married women will not take decided stands for themselves in some ways, for they will; but if they wish to evade responsibility—why, John always is there. If the public must blame anyone, Mrs. be John, and let the world Mrs. be such a charming little woman! I am how she even endures that grouchy husband. She must be an angel or she could never live with him an hour." "Now, we who have no husbands must face all our problems alone. If we make mistakes we must suffer the results and thereby learn better, and we are forced to become as honest as men, because we cannot indulge that little, dishonest, feminine trick of blaming John. "I believe one reason widows are so eager to marry again is that they are terrified to look the world squerely in the face. I believe that many a woman who would really enjoy the freedom of an unmarried life yields it for the sake of not having to think it for the sake of not having to think out little problems and have convictions. No, I can't say that I blame her. In fact, didn't I say I almost envy her?" "Where are you goin', ma?' asked the youngest of the five children. "I'm going to a surprise party, my dear," answered the mother. "We are we all goin', too?" "No, dear. You weren't invited."

Defective Page THE REVIVAL OF DISGUISES AND "MAKE-UP" BY GOTHAM SLEUTHS Necessitated by the Increase of "Black Hand" Crimes and the Growth of Policy Shops. A THE DETECTIVE BECOMES A LONGSHOREMAN The success of detective work in New York is more dependent upon clever disguises to-day than ever before. The detective of the dime novel, coauthily rivaled, if he is not outdone, by day work of scores of central office man. The work of the special detail which has been assigned to the Black Hand work, the active campaign against policy shops, and gambling in general and the unusual number of homicidal cases demand more of this character work probably than ever before in the history of the force. The incentive to make arrests in these cases is especially great, and under this pressure many of the detectives have developed a skill in make-up and in assuming a variety of disguises which the character actor might well envy. Fiction, especially of the dime novel order, has its counterpart in the every day work of the department. The most elaborate make-ups and the most picturesque detective work in the history of the central office are probably now going on in connection with the Black Hand work. The special squad, composed for the most part of Italian detectives, which is at work on these cases often resorts to the most desperate means to procure evidence. The difficulty of meeting criminals on equal terms is obviously given to them, as will deceive them must be exceedingly assumed. In this work the detectives often play the roles of familiar street types. The detective becomes a peddler, a push cart vender, a hand organ man or a tramp living for days in the poor sections. To be successful requires of course an attention to detail quite equal to that of a character actor on the stage and an infallible skill in make-up. An important Bowery case, either handicap or robbery, is often cleared up quickly by an experienced detective in the office. The disguise be well assumed, a good convincing Bowery type every resort from end to end of the street is open, but the detective's make-up must absolutely be above suspicion. There is no other street in the city where any one type of man can enter every type of resort with so little question and be allowed to idle about with so little suspicion. A convincing Bowyer type may walk unchallenged into all the hotels and lodging houses, the theaters and cheap catchpenny shows, the saloons and the shops of every kind and be allowed to make him very much at home without question, on Fifth, on Even, or even Sixth avenue, one thing would be out of the question. A good Bowyer make-up is comparatively simple. The necessary clothes can be bought at a second-hand dealer's. A three or four days' beard is readily cultivated. A slightly redened nose may be artificially assumed, with black finger nails, short-cropped hair and a general appearance of carelessness in attire, and toilet. Such a make-up seems simple enough, but it must be considered that if it is judged by exceedingly critical eyes it must be perfect to the exact detail. The success of a number of central office men in this work is, of course, a very high compliment to their art in make-up if there were nothing more. A skilful, would be absurd in real life. It would be absurd in instance, and known in actual detective work. By dayward a clever-erimitation would run a second-seance of detection and the slightest suspicion would, of course, be fatal. In pool room work the conventional disguise for such work has always been that of a countryman, or at least an out-of-town man of unsophisticated appearance. This disguise has, of course, had 'great success, but it has THE DETECTIVE BECO been found to be capable of improvement. An exceedingly clever piece of work was done recently from the central office by a detective disguised as a professional man. The detective completely fooled the pool room men—and they were old hands at the game—by the simple expedient of putting on a pair of glasses. There were other affectations of the professional man, but the glasses were enough. The detective also carried a box of instruments, considerably worn. THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS RECAUSE SOCIETY 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 which he had borrowed for the occasion. With these simple properties and much familiar allusion to the clinic and the hospitals the detective was received without question and gathered enough evidence to clinch his case. In pickpocket cases, however, in contrast to this, a conspicuous makeup is most likely to be successful. For example, the detective overdresses. He selects clothes that are color and design and affects flashy jewelry and neckwear. Curiously enough, it has been found that the most conspicuous dress in this work attracts the least attention. In working on pickpocket cases—"dip" cases as they are known in the profession—the detective usually works in the East side cafes in side streets, where stuss is played and the "dip" is likely to pass his leisure hours. The detective in his somewhat flashy clothes poses as a man from out of town with plenty of leisure and money enough to stand a drink or play a hand at cards. It is slow and with the pickpocket naturally an exceedingly suspicious person but, "dips" are landed in his way. The same detective in the same make-up will ride about town for days on the rear platform of cars watching for pickpockets. The make-up of city engineer or surveyor is an almost infallible illusion in certain classes of cases. Where it is necessary to get into a certain ground or house which is being guarded the surveyor's instrument acts as the open sesame. Such a place may be jealously guarded against every one, as, for instance, the newspaper reporter, the police, lawyers or doctors, but ninety-nine times in a hundred the surveyor will walk in with ease. A curious problem confronts the detective in the so-called "lodging house" cases. As the name indicates, the term classifies a variety of crimes usually of a violent nature connected with the lower class of lodging houses. Murder, robbery and assault are comparatively common in these resorts. To gain any definite information in such a case the detective as a rule must not only work inside the house, but must remain there absolutely free from suspicion often for days at a time. For such work the detective assumes the disguise of a tough down on his luck, preferably from out of town. The most successful disguise for such work, however, is that of the fake cripple, or "flooper." Many of the beggars about New York streets have become artists in faking the appearance of a cripple, and the detectives are no less clever. A one- MES A LONGSHOREMAN armed man apparently in much reduced circumstances may sit about the day rooms of the lodging houses for days, even weeks, without arousing the suspicion even of those familiar with detective work. An ordinary idler, no matter how cleverly made up, would be likely to arouse suspicion after a few days. But your cripple can worm himself into the confidence of men, and he will be indulged more or less by the most astute criminals. The most successful disguise for $2.40 PER YEAR such work is that of a "boll hop," or bell boy. The detective who assumes such a disguise must have a slight figure and a youthful insurance which lends itself to such a make-up. In a recent tenderloin hotel case in which a newspaper man was murdered a detective donned the livery of a bell boy and ran errands about the hotel for days while accumulating evidence. After a few days he decided that the elevator man was in a better position to watch different floors, and he thereupon was promoted to the dignity of elevator man. The quiet, unobtrusive young man wearing the hotel livery attracted little attention. It seemed perfectly natural that he should be prowling about the various floors at all hours of the day and night. At the end of two weeks sufficient evidence had been gathered to fasten suspicion on the murderer. THE FAKE CRIPPLE ONLY A COLD IN THE HEAD. That's What the Doctor Says About It, but He Can't Cure It. "I'd seems to be a fuddy joke. By trustless, I do want to do the man who's been a fuddy joke." HOW COINS WERE SWEATED. An Illegal Practice Which Has Fallen Into Disease. Closely allied to the making of counterfeit coins, and usually combined with the nefarious trade, is what is known as "sweating," which requires considerable skill to accomplish successfully. A rubber mold is used, into which a gold coin to be sweated is introduced and help with a clip. Copper wires having been adjuste1, the coin is immersed in a bath of cyanide of potassium and an electric battery set going. The action of the electricity up the coin in the acid uniformly sweats the metal—that is to say, causes so much of it to become detached. This process is gone through with a large number of coins, and the gold deposit thus obtained is extracted from the acid. It is for the purpose of detecting that which has been scoured coins that bankers weigh gold coins in a balance, and if one is in the scale it will immediately be shown by the indicator. The light coin is then taken out, and whatever the shortage represents that amount the customer will have to make up or be fined. But, all things considered, sweating is but a poor business, says Mr. H. L. Adam, in his interesting book, "The Story of Crime," and evidently it is thought so by the criminal fraternity, for it has dwindled to a mere nothing. In 1871, in the annual report of the master of the mint, the official chemist stated that during the year he had had only two sovereigns submitted to him which had under gone the process of sweating. A sow evelign weighs 123.27447 grains, and the limit of error in the weight is 0.2 of a grain, from which it may readily be gathered that sweating cannot now be a very lucrative bush nest.

It is known that the majority of the people of that state by the manipulations of the Senator from South Carolina and the men who are associated with him in that state, have been deprived of their rights,-civii and political, that have been guaranteed to them under.the Constitution of our common country.” : “Mr. President, the Senator nimself, in a speech in-this body on the 24th day of February, 1900, made this statement in the Senate: ‘I know nothing about other states, but I acknowledge openty and boldly in the sight of God that we did our level best to keep every Negro in our State from voting.’” “Does anybody believe that if the seven hundred amd some odd thousand Afro-Americans in the state of South Carolina had the political rights that “are guaranteed to the Afro-Americans of Illinois and to all me people of Gxery other state, that the Senator would be here upon this floor denouncing the national banks of Chicago? Does anybody believe that?” A year o> more he was making some speeches over the country, and he advocated mob law. This is the language the Senator used: ‘That Seems to be the only practical way until the amendment of the Constitu- tion granting the Negroes suffrage has been repealed. We have shot "om and hanged ‘em and burned ’em in South Carolina until they almost know thelr proper place now.’” elle bows his head to that. My God, Mr. President, think of a man in the Senate of the United States who can bow approval to the fact tat & human being is placed at a stake and burned alive in the twentieth century of our civilization!” ‘How is alittle money of a national bauk to be compared with the life Sean American citizen? “How 1s the violation of the law by one national bank to be compared with a condition im any section of our commion enintoy ‘where men, without opportunity to show their innocence, are takes by @ mob | and placed upon a pile of fire and burned? ‘That ts one of the hives to which the Senator hera today gives his approval” * by the Prohibitionists of Tennessee. It might hurt the feelings of some of the southern brethren, you know, and thus to a greater or less extent im- pede the progress of the millenium. ‘The ‘Times further remarks. “This niisuse of “Marching Through Georg, ia” is ill-advised, but not nearly so reprehensible as the general perform- ance of that once stirring air at the recent Chicago Convention.” ‘The Appeal fails to see any reason why the Times should worry over the “misuse,” as it did not prevent the Prohibitionists from polling a very large vote. i ‘The appointment of Gen, Wright has suggested to the Baltimore Sun the following conundrum: “But if a Democrat remains in the Republican fold for 12 years and holds office un- der two Republican administrations, with the prospect of serving under a third, all the while supporting the policies of those administrations, can he still be considered a Democrat?” ‘The Appeal would remark that the oath of office simply obligates Gen. Wright to support the Constitution of the United States and presumes that a man can do that and still re- main a Democrat. ‘The results of state-wide prohibi- tion, in those states that have given it a trial, seem to have deterred those states which were looking on. a : i a Ae ; 4 S ; nee pa | oo ocd Fe ; : ig 3 ar é iS Ce HON.

HONORABLE ELMER DOVER. Popular Secretary of the Republicen National Committee, Who Will Be Stationed at Chicago During the Campaign. NATIONAL BUSINESS LEAGUE. ‘The Ninth Annual. meeting of the National’ Afro-American Business League isto be ueld in the-city of Baltimore, © Maryland, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday,’ August’ 19th, 20th and 21st, 1908. ‘The: day sessions of the League will be held in the Sharp Stree: Metho- Gist Eptscopal” Church. All of the Night sessions are to be held in Rich- mond Market Hall, formerly used by the Crack Fitth Regiment of Baiti- |more and recently by the General Con- ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, Richmond Market Hall is one of the most satisfactory assembly rooms in the whole city of Baltimore. The League is indebted to the Balti- more Business League, of which Mr. Harry T. Pratt is President, for se- curing this splendid hall for the use of the League. His Honor, Mayor J. Barry Mahool, aided the Baltimore Longue da having this hall secured for the meetings. 3 Upon petition of Mr. Pratt and oth. er members of the Local Business League, the City Counell of Balti- more has passed two resolutions of interest to the organization, one pro- viding for the electrical illumination by the city of Drmd Hill Avenue dur- ing the sessions of the National Busi- ness League and the other, tor the use of the largest steamer belonging ‘to the City Harbor Board during Conven- tion Week. Honorable Harry S. Cummings, a member of the City Council, has given the weight of his influence toward having these two resolutions passed by the City Coun- cil. : ‘The citizens of Baltimore are well organized in various committees and are earnestly at work arranging the details of entertainment, etc., for the delegates. Officers, Life Members and Delegates, who are intending to ve present, are urged to write Dr. Louis H, Fenderson, 1418 Druid Hill Avenue, Baltimore, advising him of such in: tention, so that proper accommoda- tions may be provided. The far-reaching influence of \.2 National Business League assures an attendance at Baltimore second to that of no former session of the or- ganization. Reduced rates will be se- cured from almost every section of the country. It is altogether possible, however, for groups of individuals coming from such centers as Chicago, Indianapol:s, Louisville, Atlanta, Birm- ingham, St Louis, New Orleans, Littie Rock, Nashville, Chattanooga, Jackson, Memphis, Kansas City, and other cit: jes to secure suca special excursion rates as are being offered to Washing- ton, Baltimore, New York and Atlantic City. By arranging for stop-over priv- lleges, delegates will be enabled to make ‘the trip to Baltimore at an ex- pense lower than the usual one and one-third rate, and at the same time visit the National Capital. Delegates are especially urged to begin making arrangements at once for special Pullman and Coach accom- modations to Baltimore. If delega- tions are organized in each of the states they can arrange for special Pullman and other accommodations, securing privacy, comfort and cont genial companionship en route, Local Business Leagues are urged to begin electing their delegates at once. The names of all delegates thus selected should be forwarded to the Corresponding Secretary, Mr. Emmett J. Scott, Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. Mr. C. F. Adams, 934 S Street, N. EQUAL RIGHTS PLANK. “The (Republican party has been for more than fifty years the consistent friend of the ‘Afro-American, It gaye him freedom “and” citizenship. It wrote inte the organic law the declarations that proclaim his civil and political rights, and it” believes today that. bis note- worthy progress in Intelligence, industry and good citizenship has earned. the respect and en- couragement of the nation. We demand equal justice for all men, without regard to race or color; we declare once more, and without reservation, for the enforcement in letter and spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution which were de- signed for the protection and ad- vancemnt of the Afro-American, and we condemn all devices have for their real aim his dis- franchisement for reasons of color alone, as unfair, un-Am- erican and repugnant to the supreme law of the land.” —Republican Platform,’ 1908.

DO TIT NOW! The Attraction at the Grand Next Week. Many local theater goers are looking forward to the production of "The Jilf" the coming week at the Grand as one of the most enjoyable performances the Neill company has given so far. The play is one that never fails to please through the beauties of its love story and natu- PETER H.

The English and locates its action in one of the Shires of England and introduces as one of the features of its theme a race scene a sport which all English people enjoy. This play will be performed in good, strong, acting parts. Miss Miss Eddy the Chapman, Miss Eleanor Edythe Chapman Montell, Mr. James Neill and Mr. Thurlow Bergen will all appear in important characters in this play.

A Few Words in Behalf of One of the Best Business Enterprises If the good people of St. Paul were fully aware of what they have in this city, in the Kendrick Hotel and Cafe, near Jackson and Third streets, diagonally opposite the Merchants Hotel, they would probably pay more attention to this enterprise. There has never been anything like it in St. Paul before. The Hotel has 40 rooms at moderate price, well-appointed accommodations. The Cafe is unquestionably the largest and best the city has ever had, with a service that cannot be surpassed at the prices charged. The Sunday menu is published every week in THE APPEAL and a perusal of it will convince the most skeptical that one can get his money's worth. But this magnificent establishment does not receive any compensation for progressive proprietor should lose his faith in the people, which prompted him to invest a large sum of money to give them something they never had before, they have only themselves to blame. And, should he decide to close his doors, no other such a place will be opened for the accommodation of Afro-Americans. You know you miss the people you are once. Don't let this good thing get away from you because you carelessly fail to patronize it. Wake up, you folks who have not visited this nice, clean, orderly, well-conducted place and investigate for yourselves. BEA BOTTOM IN MINIATURE. To Be Reproduce. From Coral in the Natural History of Museum. history of museum. Dr. R. Z. Dahlgren of the American museum of natural history. New York, has just returned from the Bahama islands, bringing with him nearly 200 cases of coral. It is the purpose of Dr. H. C. Bumpus, director of the museum, to cut out a section of the first floor of the museum building and reproduce below the level of the floor a representation of the bottom of the sea, showing coral reefs in all stages of development. The section of the floor to cut out will be 6x30 feet. When the reproduction of the reef and sea bottom have been completed the flooring will be replaced by a rectangle of heavy plate glass. The work so far has been quite expensive, and the actual installation of the reef will be a task of a very delicate and the actual requirement, requiring probably six months for completion. It began at once under the direction of Dr. Dahlgren and Mr. Miller, also of the museum, who went to the Bahamas with him. Dr. Dahlgren, while in the Bahamas, got an unusually complete collection of photographs of excellent photographs showing the work of polyps in the actual coral making. HOW RATS MOVE EGGS. Taking Oil From a Bottle—Getting Figs From a Table: Strange as the story may appear of rats removing hens' eggs from the bottom of the top of a house by one fellow lying on his back and grasping tightly his owlid burden with his forepaws, while his comrades drag him away by the tail. I have no reason to disbelieve it. I have seen two brown rats accomplish the feat from stair to stair in a farmhouse in Banffshire, the first anxious rodent pishing the egg up on its hind leg, and the second assistant lifting it up with its forelegs. It was the best athletic feet ever, witnessed, but it is not out of the common. The rat will extract the cotton from a flask of Florence oil, dipping in his long tail, and repeating the maneuver until he has consumed all that can be reached I have found lumps of sugar in a deep drawer at a distance of thirty feet from the place where the petty larceny was committed, and a friend once saw a rat mount a table on which a drum of figs was fixed and straightway tip it over, scattering its contents on the floor below, where a score of his expectant brethren sat watching for the windfall.
