As says one writer: If history had said its last word, if no more were to be known of him than is already written, his fame, however lacking in definite outline, however distorted by fable, would survive undiminished to the lat- est generations. The blessings of an enfranchised race would forever hail him as their liberator; the nation would acknowledge him as the mighty counselor whose patient courage and wisdom saved the life of the republic ‘m its darkest hour; and illuminat- ‘ug his proud eminence as orator, | A : Be os 3 sa ade eS , 4 ' HON.

Like the ride of the old woman for the first time on the railroad, who, when after the collision, was asked as she sat up among the debris of the wreck: “Are you hurt?” Replied, “No; isn’t this the way you always stop?” February, although the shortest month in the year, is full of historic events. During the month the birth. day anniversiaries of the three great- est Americans who have gone to their reward will occur and be duly celebrated, viz.: Washington, Lincoln and Douglass. We might also add that “Ground Hog Day” and “Valen- tine Day” are among its days and are considered of very much impor- tance by many people, =— It is all over now but the inaugura- tion; the presidential electors have made their reports and congress has reviewed the returns and finds that Wiliam H. Taft was elected president and James S. Sherman vice president of these United States in November last. Selah! The “Ananias Class” seems to be a popular and rapidly growing now-a- days. ‘ ee id Pe HON. CHARLES NAGEL, — ‘National Committeeman from Missouri, who took the place of Chair- man Hitchcock during his absence from Chicago during the compaign. Mr. Nagel who is a great friend of the Afro-Americans, had charge. of the work among the Afro-Americans In th: West duriny the recent presidential campaign. He Is now sald to be siat-d for a Cabinet place. “The idea that the South can af. ford,” said Mr. Taft, “to have the Afro-American transplanted to some other country to me always sounded like @ joke. ‘They tried that down in Mississippi, and they were going to move then, not out of the country to Africa, but only across the river, and they had a riot, Of course, that is absurd, . “But if the Afro-American would be Tespected he must make himself worthy “of respect. He mist culti- vate those virtues of providence, of industry, of thrift which will make him respected as a laborer, as a farm- er, a8 a skilled mechanic, as a man contributing to the wealth of the com- munity in which he lives, and without whose ald the accumulation of that wealth is impossible. “T want to add that I always want to say before an Afro-American audi- ence that you are Americans. The idea of transplanting you is utterly absurd. The only flag you know is the Stars and Stripes, and you are of a race that has given up their lives and moistened the ground with their statesman and ruler, there would for ever shine around his memory the halo of that tender humanity and Christian charity in which he walked among his fellow countrymen as their familiar companion and friend. ‘This was said more than twenty-two years ago and the sentiments express. ed all over the country during the last few weeks and the grand finale of celebrations on yesterday prove con- clusively that the love and honor of Lincoln have only grown stronger as the years have rolled by. Lincoln still lives, for to live in the hearts of those we leave behind is not to die. _ Would to God that the Lincoln spir. it filled the breast of every man in this country. We most sincerely hope that the retrospection of the history of Lin- coln, whose character is 60 highly revered, will sow good seed that will bring forth a bountiful harvest of that charity for the race that made him famous, that the harsh, unjust, un- American, un-Christian treatment that is now being accorded it will be in ac- cordance with that of the martyred Lincoln. , ‘These are strenuous times, the world is traveling too fast; wont there be ‘an awful crash some day?

Chiefly his tribute was to Lincoln the man, At the executive session of the senate Monday afternoon Senator Till- man made a fire-eating speech in his jold pitchfork style, ‘Mr, Tillman made no bones of say- ing that the disfranchisement laws that they openly violated the four- teenth and fifteenth amendments, and of the South were frauds. He declared ‘that their administration was a joke, and he asserted boldly that they were intended sdely to disfranchise Afro- Americans because they were not white, ‘Of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments Mr. Tillman said they were not worth the paper they were written on.’ South Carolina, he said, had an educational qualification and knew how to handle it with reference to the Afro-American. There never wass an Afro-American who got the right to vote under it, he declared, and no white man hat been disfran chised under it.

B. church last Monday afternoon under ‘the aus- pices of the Order of Odd Feliows, the ‘members attending in a body, headed dy a brass band. There was a very large audience present to pay last tri Dutes of respect. The services were conducted by Rev. H. 8. Graves, as- sisted by Rey. W.D. Garter, and were quite solemn and tmpressive.

And it proved to be one of the most enjoyable of the winter. From the opening by the clergymen, who were introduced by Mr. J. Q. Adams, to the ringing down of the curtain was one continuous ova tlon of beautiful harmony and literary talent, ‘The Spanish robbers’ song, “Bandolero,” was sung with great dra. matic power and soul inspiration that took the vast audience by storm. The grand chorus and finale, “Misereie,” with Mrs. R. C. Minor as Leonora and Mr. J. A. White as Manrico, closed one of the most pleasant events of the season. After the concert Mr. French held a reception and a promenade fol- lowed.

MARRIAGES. ‘The Cause of Large Losses to the Catholic Church in Germany. A short t'me ago Father Bonaven- ture, the great Dominican preacher, stated that within fifty years in the city of Berlin alone a quarter of mill fon souls have been lost to the Catho- Ue church, principally through mixed marriages. In Germany it {s almost certain that the greater part of the children of mixed marriages are lost to the church. In Prussia about 60.per cent of these children are Protestants. The number of these marriages greatly ex- ceeds the number of Catholic mar rlages. Im the four years from 1901 to 1905 there were 1,567-Catholic marriages, 5 opposed to 4,374 mixed marriages in Berlin and Brandenburg alone, The Proportion for the whole empire for 1906 was 350 mixed to. 100 Catholic unions. ‘The question has become very grame, and is giving much worry to the Catholic leaders, One of the explanations of this strange condition of affairs is the dis- crimination practiced throughout the German empire against Catholics. Prussia is still the great center of the spirit of the reformation, and the strict Lutherans there cannot compromise with a Catholic. All the government positions are held by Protestants. The army, the universities, the railroad ad- ministration—all are closed to Roman Catholies. Keeping Dandelions From -tawne. ‘There are those who say the dande- lion cannot be killed. I know better— Ive tried it. I havé a lawn 200 feet by 150 feet without a dandelion, and T didn’t rip up my lawn elther, How do I keep the dandelions out? 1 dig them gut carefully every spring and keep a close-watch for thelr re: Sppearance during the summer, thus avolding the seeding. very spring I scatter plenty of blue grass seed on my lawn and thits supply it with seed that is lost to it by reason of frequent cutting. ‘Not only that,-but when I am dig- sing dandelions I have a pocket full of Seed handy and drop a pinch of seed in each hole I make when I ex- tract the dandelion trom the sod. New grass grows up quickly, fills the hole and chokes the dandelion, Spanish Emeralds. “Fine old Spanish emeralds” is a phrase which means something quite Gifferent from what it seems to im- ply. ‘There never was a emerald mined in Spain, but after the conquest of Peru the conquerors brought home great quantities of loot, of which em- eralds formed an important part. In this way the finest emeralds came into possession of the old Spanish familles, and as very few had been seen in Europe previous to that time all the best stones soon became class- ed as fine old Spanish emeralds. To- day the expression still applies to the best emeralds of any source. a’ gee eae: Mic ac ae Wilson, the president of the Huntingdon borough council, has an odéity at his home on Mifflin street in the form of a perfectly white rose blooming on a rose bush which has borne only red roses and on which all the other flowers now blooming are red. ‘The rose is a climbing rambler, and about eight feet from the ground up the side of the house the one perfectly white rose has grown, standing out prominently among’ the red ones sur- rounding it, Edwin's Philosophy. Little Edwin, aged 4, playing with some older boys, heard'a new byword for the first time. Running to his fa- ther, he asked him it “my golly” was a bad word.

A black cloud hangs over it, sorrow and shame darken the lives of those who have fattened on it and been lured by it; a grim responsibility rests on those who tolerate it. "Still," says Success, "one may, in a spirit of fairness, point out two things about which there is frequent misapprehension, for even this gambling devil may have his due. "In the first place the tables are run honestly; there is no manipulating of the cards, nor any crooked work with the roulette wheel; the bank has simply its slight percentage of advantage in the two games played—the zero at roulette and the split thirty-one at trente et quarante—and neither asks nor needs any other advantage. No one who knows questions this. Individual players have often tried to rob the Monte Carlo bank, and by various tricks and conspiracles have sometimes succeeded, but the bank has never tried to rob the players. "A second point is that the entire amount of money taken from the world every year by these formidably pictured tables is not so very enormous. The latest report shows gross wins at the Casino of about $7,500,000 for the year, with a net profit for the controlling company of a little over $3,500,000. "This is nothing to what Wall street gambling takes every year from America alone, nothing to what race track gambling and poolroom gambling take from a single state, and a mere trifle when we consider the number of persons who pay for it. Less than $8,000,000 collected from over 1,000,000 individuals who visit the Monte Carlo gambling rooms every year—say $10 apiece, allowing for a small minority of winners and non-players." French Chemical Scarecrow According to recent experiments by Stanilas Tetard, a widely known French agriculturist, wheat and other cereals can be protected against the ravages of crows, which are particularly fond of the grain when its sprouts are just pushing above the ground, by treating the seeds before they are sown with a mixture of coal tar, petroleum and phenic acid. This treatment, which delays the growth of the seed for a day or two, but causes no damage, imparts an odor which is insufferable to the crows, but which disappears after the sprouts have attained a larger growth, when they are no longer subject to attack. Publicity of "Shines." Another woman's wrong! She writes to complain that the shoe black is too public. She is sensitive at the two ends of her. Is her hat straight? Are her shoes clean? And there are many women who come from the other suburbs into town, and are a little uneasy on those two points. The hat's angle may be corrected in the waiting room of the station. But the shoes must remain muddied or be cleaned in the blaze of publicity! For the shoe black sets his pitch at the point of passing, and shouts "Shine!" It Wasn't Fire-Nor Water A. M. Downes, late secretary of New York fire department relicted at a dinner a fire story, "At the end of the first act of a drama," he said, "a man leaped hurriedly to his feet. 'T heard an alarm of fire,' he said. 'T must go and see where it is.' His wife, whose hearing was less acute, made way for him in silence, and he disappeared. 'It wasn't fire,' he said, on his return. 'Nor water, either,' said his wife coldly.' All the Same in the End. A Salina paper tells of a boy who was severely bitten by a "canine," and the Emporia Gazette adds: "His father mounted an equine and went for a doctor, who recommended a poultice of milk from the family bovine. It is said that a slice of fat from a porcine is good thing for such a wound."
