The Appeal

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. GETS ENORMOUS FOR FEW More Money Than Lifetime Man Reward of M Single GETS ENORMOUS FEES FOR FEW HOURS' WORK More Money Than Lifetime Earnings of Competent Man Reward of Noted Attorneys in More money than an ordinarily paid man could make in a whole lifetime of persistent effort in coming to be the portion of successful lawyers and doctors for single cases. The reward of the specialist is constantly growing, and the number of ciphers on the end of checks in payment of services rendered continues to extend. Only lately George B. Wickersham, now attorney general of the United States, represented the Chicago Traction company in the vitally important suits against the city of Chicago. In return for the work he did in that case, Mr. Wickersham received the enormous sum of $200,000, one-fifth of a million, which only a couple of decades ago was regarded as the high water mark of a plutocrat's belongings. Bu there have been bigger fees than the one to the credit of Mr. Wickersham. In fact, in one instance the million mark was reached by James B. Dill, now a judge of the court of errors and appeals in New Jersey, had the important assignment of patching up the differences between Andrew Carnegie and Henry C. Frick, when the quarrel between them threatened to disrupt the entire steel industry. Mr. Dill had no easy case. It took virtually his entire time for one year. He had to delve deeply into records, James B. Dill, and the reconciliation was conceded to represent the work of virtual genius. Gets $1,000,000 Fee. The price paid was in proportion, Mr. Dill got $1,000,000, conceded to be the highest fee paid to a lawyer in the history of American jurisprudence. The nearest approach is said to have been the $800,000, which went to William D. Guthrie for breaking the will of Henry B. Plant. But the two cases handled by Dill and Guthrie were complicated, and called for long and careful work. If the amount of labor put upon them he compared with what Elilhu Root did in the settlement of the legal questions following the death of Russell Sage, it will probably be found that for the amount of services rendered Mr. Root was far better paid than either of his brother counsellers. Naturally the settlement of an estate as big as that of Mr. Sage wanted to do justice to all who had claims, but she was equally anxious to avoid long delays and vexations. Therefore she summoned her adviser, and ordered him to retain Mr. Root. The noted New Yorker was at that time secretary of war. He explained to Mrs. Sage's adviser that he was too much engrossed in the duties of state to have time for private practice, and that he would have to decline the case. But the advisor was persistent, and told that he had orders to get Mr. Root. In the expectation that by charging what he thought an exorbitant fee he would get rid of the case, Mr. Root set $250,000 as the only possible price at which he could THE VOL.25.NO.21. James B. Dill Gets $1,000,000 Fee. Single Cases. take the case. To his astonishment, Mrs. Sage accepted by wire next day. Root Gets $250,000 for Two Days. The secretary then went into the case. It took him just forty-eight hours to do the business, he was required to hire no additional aid, and he never had to go into court at all. But he cleaned up the whole matter, swiftly and satisfactorily. The money was paid, and there was an end of the whole matter. Working at the rate of $125,000 per day certainly gives Mr. Root a claim on all the championships for big fees. It is known that William Nelson Cromwell got at least $200,000 for selling the Panama canal to the United States, and it is said by some persons that his reward was four or five times that amount, but there is no way to prove it. Cromwell took his life in his hands to earn this sum, for he was taken ill while the negotiations were on, and in a most critical period was confined with a temperature of 103. Learning that the deal might fall through unless he got on the job, Mr. Cromwell rose, went to the office of Secretary Hay, stayed with him an hour, completed the business, and went home, barely succeeding in winning out a six weeks' battle with typhoid. But for $200,000, let alone how much more it may have been, most persons will be inclined to think that the risk was worth while. But this wasn't the only big fee to the credit of Mr. Cromwell. For reorganizing the firm of Decker, Howell & Cromwell was paid $260,000. The attorneys who forced the government after a lon gdispute to pay the long deferred claims of the Cherokee Indians, fifteen millions in all, were allowed 15 per cent of the total nearly $750,000. It is said that the greater part of this went to one firm Piles Earns $450,000 in One Case. A court decision recently granted at Seattle, Wash., opened the way for another huge fee. Senator S. H. Piles, by winning for his clients the famous John Sullivan will case, gained a fee of $450,000, for in advance the heirs gave him deeds of conveyance for one half of the total, provided they should win. It has never been contradicted that for his share in the Thaw case, Michael Delphine Delmas received $100,000, which seems fairly expensive Joseph H. Croate. Attorney General George Wickersham. when it was decided to omit him altogether from the second case, on the score that more could be accomplished without him.

Heyl, got $107,000. Quarles, Spencer and Quarles valued their services in behalf of the proponents at $150,000, and in addition to these there were several other bills ranging downwards from $50,000 to a modest little fee of $5,000. When Joseph H. Chote, afterwards to be United States ambassador to Great Britain, delivered his argument before the supreme court of the United States against the constitutionality of the income tax, he dealt with a subject which he knew well, and which being purely one of interpretation of the Constitution required no great amount of preparation. But this one piece of work netted him the sum of $200,000, and from the standpoint of his clients was money well spent since it resulted in the declaring of the law unconstitutional. Johnson is an Exception. John G. Johnson of Philadelphia, conceded to be one of the country's greatest corporation lawyers, is an exception in the matter of fees. He will Secretary never accept more than a case is worth, and though he has several times been paid $10,000 and $100,000 for his work, he has also in one instance at least been known to return a $25,000 check for a piece of work done for a railroad, with the statement that $5,000 was ample payment. It is not alone the law that offers opportunities for making tremendous sums quickly. Medicine is a profession quite as rich in possibilities. A Philadelphia physician, the late Dr. William Pepper, it is understood, charged Robert Simpson $1,500 for an examination lasting about a minute, and Dr. S. Wler Mitchell is said to have been given a fee of $15,000 by one patient. When America learned that Dr. Adolph Lorenz of Vienna received $30,000 for setting the hip of little Lolita Armour of Chicago and later pay for further attention swelling his total fees to $78,000, there was amazement, and yet this would not create surprise in Europe, especially in court circles. When the present King Edward of England, then prince of Wales, was seriously ill years ago, Dr. William Jenner pulled him through, and for his four weeks' attention was paid $50,000. The physician who attended the father of Emperor William of Germany in his last illness—Dr. S. Morrell Mackenzie—presented a bill for $100,000, which was paid without a murmur. Doctors Pull Down Big Ones. Prof. Zacheryine of Moscow got $75,000 for two days' attendance on the father of the present czar. Dr. Thomas Dimsale for vaccinating the Empress Catherine I. at St. Petersburg got $50,000, and a pension of $2,500 for life. A bill for $190,000 was sent by Dr. Walter C. Browning of Philadelphia to the estate of Senator C. L. Magee at Pittsburgh. It was brought out in evidence that Senator Magee had once declared his intention of giving Dr. Browning a fee of $1,000,000, and had added: "I intend to heat Peter Defective Page He will | That payment of large fees may be Secretary Elihu Root. Attorney General George Wickersham. Page Johnson Is an Exception. Doctors Pull Down Big Ones. Wilderen's record. Wilderen, you know, paid his doctor $80,000." A review of high voluntary fees seems to show that a father whose child has been saved by a physician is especially liberal. Gratitude of the Chicago father to the Vienna "bloodless" surgeon was cellled by that of Mr. Flagler of New York, who gave Dr. Shelton securities worth $87,000 for curing his daughter. The late shah of Persia paid Dr. Galezowski of Paris $25,000 for curing his son of an affliction of the eye. After the death of Marshall Field, the Chicago merchant prince, his physician, Dr. Frank Billings, filled in the probate court a claim for $25,000, a bill for seven days' service. For 100 days' attendance upon the late William L. Railey, a millionaire cork manufacturer in Philadelphia, Dr. Samuel T. Barnes made out a bill amounting to $33,000. This charge of $330 a day cannot be noted as among the modest claims of practitioners. That payment of large fees may be exacted even when cures are not affected was shown by the recent decision of a French court in the case of George Crocker of California against Dr. Doyen. Mr. Crocker sought to recover a $20,000 fee which he paid in 1904 for having his wife treated for cancer—treatment which he asserted was unsuccessful. The court held that the Paris physician had done his best to fulfill the contract, and that he was entitled to the $20,000 fee. Bee Bluff, on sugar creek, in the Ozark mountains, two miles from Powell, Mo., has almost as good a name as it deserves. This sheer wall of porous limestone, more than 100 feet in height, was until a few years ago the home of many swarms of wild bees. When the country near the creek became somewhat settled up and some of the newcomers began to experiment with bee culture the wild bees from the bluff so disturbed the peace of the tame hives that they ruined the business. So the settlers revenged themselves by making a raid on the cliff dwellers' homes. With "Indian ladders"—tree trunks with cross pieces nailed on them for steps—the they climbed to the rocky citadels of the wild bees and smoked the inhabitants out with sulphur fumes. King Edward's Walking Sticks The king had made a hobby of collecting walking sticks, and now has more than two thousand. He prizes most the stick always used by Queen Victoria, made from a branch of the Boscobel Oak, amid the greenery of which King Charles II. after the battle of Worcester hid himself while escaping from the Crownwellian soldiers. Queen Victoria had the Stuart knob removed from the stick and a little idol, looted from Seringapatam, put in its place. Besides walking sticks the king collects model ships, match boxes and caricatures. Of Sir Frank Lockwood's caricatures his majesty has quite a good collection hung up in his den at Sandringham. PENNSYLVANIA TO PAY TRIBUTE TO WAR HEROES Name of Every Man From Keystone State Who Fought at Gettysburg to Appear on Monument. THE TOMB OF THE MAYOR OF BOSTON Design of the Majestic Monument to Be Erected by Pennsylvania on the Gettysburg Battlefield. On the most superb of all natural settings for a battleground Gettysburg, revered above any other field that has been fighting in the new world, a new monument is to arise. It has been somewhat tardy in coming, for the deeds it commemorates have been notable in the nation's history for more than four decades. The Keystone state has not been overhasty in paying tribute to its heroes of that memorable conflict that really decided the Civil war, but if there has been some delay it is to be atoned for in one of the most superb memorials that ever rose above a scene of lofty achievement. Perhaps Pennsylvania having the battlefield within its borders and being to some extent its custodian, has chosen to show deference to other states by giving way to them in respect to the erection of monuments. Already nearly every state that had soldiers in the mighty engagement that turned back the forces of the Confederacy has in stone or bronze paid its meed of gratitude. Fought on Their Own Soll. Now comes the Keystone state. Four thousand of its men with their life blood hallowed the sacred ground to which Abraham Lincoln in the greatest speech yet made by an American made such impressive reference in the famous Gettysburg address. It was fitting that the Keystone state should have had more troops engaged in the battle than any other commonwealth, for Philadelphia and all the cities between there and the scene of the fight would have fallen into the hands of the Confederacy had the issue been otherwise than it was. Eighteen states defended the northern colors, and Pennsylvania was far ahead, not only in numbers of men engaged, but in the percentage of those who were killed. The historian, William F. Fox, in his book, "New York in the War," says. "The percentage of killed in the soldiers of the Keystone state was greater than the quota of any other northern state. This high percentage of loss in battle was largely due to the fact that nearly all of the Pennsylvania troops served in Virginia, where the territory was better contested and the war more prolonged. Then again the Pennsylvania regiments were second to none. They saw plenty of hard fighting, and their total losses in action exceeded the cavalry losses of any other state." This was the kind of material with which Pennsylvania went into the great conflict on the first three days of July, 1863. Had Nine Generals in Battle.

Monument Indicating High Water Mark of the Battle of Gettysburg. day who fell in battle was General John F. Reynolds. The superb cavalry officer, General Winfield Scott Hancock, who galloped to the front at the first sound of battle, and who was the right-hand of General George G. Meade until on the third day he fell wounded, was another son of the Keystone state. Meade himself was a Pennsylvanian. The first regiment to fire a shot was the 56th Pennsylvania infantry, and the first brigade to distinguish itself was Roy Stone's, still Pennsylvanians. During the first and second days of fighting when the Union forces outnumbered, were unable to entirely stay the advancing hosts of Long-street and Hood, Pennsylvania soldiers bore the brunt of the opposition, and when General Strong Vincent went to his death on the Little Round Top he fell on his native heath. Made Great Chrage. McCandless and his reserves made one of the most successful charges of the day when the fighting was raging over the wheat field and Valley of Death, and nothing was more splendid than th eval of Ricketts and his men in holding the crest of Cemetery Ridge against the advance of the Louisiana Tigers, was rescued. The morning of the third day was ushered in by the charge of the White Star division under the command of another son of the state over whose Monument Indicating High Water soil the carnage was raging, John W. Geary, and the attempt of the Confederate forces to split the Union lines in two by an attack on the rear was only thwarted by the matchless skill of the cavalry under General D. M. McGregg, and when last of all came the climax to the battle on the last day, the matchless charge of Pickett's 18,000 men when they marched across the open field, a line a mile and a quarter in width, coming 1,600 yards in the face of a galling fire, Pennsylvania troops met the ad- to Be Erected by Pennsylvania on the Battlefield.

Monument to Cost $150,000. The monument with which this im mortal record will be preserved to history is to cost $150,000. It will take the form of a double arch, towering more than 100 feet in height, splendid in its proportions and crowned with a heroic statue of Victory. In front of the arch will be statues of Lincoln, the national leader, and of Andrew Curtin, who was governor of the state during the troublous times of the war. Around the base will be ninety bronze tablets containing the names not only of the organizations, records of numbers present, the killed and wounded, etc., but in addition to that the name of every man from Pennsylvania who participated in the battle. This in itself is an exceptional novelty, for ordinarily the private in battle has his deeds remembered only by his family and friends, or by the appearance of his name somewhere in the hidden, musty records of the war department at Washington. But at Gettysburg the man who carried the musket will be remembered as well as the officer who directed him. The structure will be of granite, the statue of Victory and those of Lincoln and Curtin will be of bronze. Four immense bas-reliefs in granite, nine feet by eighteen, over the keystone of the arch will show scenes of the battle, and it is planned to make these realistic masterpieces of the art of reproducing the scenes of warfare. The data has been most carefully collected, and the four arms of the service, the infantry, cavalry, artillery and signal corps will each have one table directed to showing the part it played in this most important of engagements. They expect to have the memorial finished and dedicated July 3, 1918, the forty-seventh anniversary of the battle. Yearly the importance of Gettysburg as a shrine increases. More and more visitors go there all the time, and every new statue added, every memorial, or even marking stone placed, is a matter for national pride, a cause for congratulation far beyond any merely local sentiment.

SATURDAY, MAY 22, 1909 HOWARD vs. HARVARD Ex-president Eliot of Harvard having tabooed racial intermarriages, now comes Prof. Ripley, also of Harvard, in an effort to prove their desirability. The professor points to the Balkan States to show that the segregation of different nationalities into groups is sure to work mischief and he might have added all the rest of Europe as proof of the proposition and thrown in the United States for good measure. Prof. Ripley, however, sharply draws the line as to the intermarriage of races of different colors. We opine that the professor will find it difficult to preserve his firing line intact, for the intermarriage of whites and Indians is not condemned by public Prof. Ripley, however, sharply opinion and the half-breed Indian is [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie and a mustache.

FRANKLIN MAC VEAGH Secretary of the United States Treasury. J. Secretary of the Republican National Advisory Committee Who Will Be Appointed National Bank Examiner recognized in the best society. The senators from Oklahoma and Kansas, and ex-governor Vardaman of Mississippi are of Indian decent; Sam Houston married an Indian, and the descendants of Pochontas rank among the aristocrats of Virginia. The intermarriage of races differing in color has passed beyond the jurisdiction of the Harvard tribunal. The settlement of the question will not be made by Harvard theories but by the varied conditions in which men are placed. In many cases the choice is simply-between legal marriage or concubinage. The Southern States by stringent laws, prohibit marriage between white and black and thus encourage and promote the system of illicit sexual relations so prevalent in that section. Harvard may discuss but while the discussion is going on, the question is settling itself, without any regard to scientific theories. "THE LOST CAUSE" It is an indisputable fact that the real cause of the rebellion was that John Wesley described as the sum of all villainies, the system of human slavery, and equally clear that the object of the war was to preserve that institution within a certain portion of the United States, after that a strenuous effort to extend it over the whole country had failed. That the men of the South were brave men, it would be ridiculous to deny, and that many of them thought that their cause was just is at least presumable. However, to admit so much, does not satisfy our Southern brethren. What they wish us all to steadfastly believe is shown in the following extract from an obituary notice in the Savannah News: It was Dr. Jones, "the fighting parson," as he was called, who sought by vice and pen to preserve the truth about the most righteous cause for which men ever fought, and about the bravest men who ever fought for any cause. Among the men of the South who should be held in everlasting remembrance is this genial sincere, and glorious old soldier who died, as he had always lived, with "a conscience void of offense toward, God and toward men." That the rebellion was the most righteous cause and the Confederates the bravest men that ever existed will seem to many persons to be, at least a debatable proposition, and a manifest absurdity to as many others. THE TROUBLE IN TURKEY. There has been a hot time in Turkey recently resulting in the slaughter of 30,000 people and insuring the fact that Turkey will, this year, "best" the United States in the number of murders. The Turk is generally a Mohammedan and sees a little harm in killing an Armenian, who is a Christian, as a southern mob does in killing an Afro-American. The neighboring European nations would like to butt in and regulate matters in their customary way, but they are too busy watching each other and the people they have subjugated, Ireland, India and South Africa tie the hands of England; Alsace-Lorraine, Finland and Poland, the hands of Germany; Russia and Austria, France and Italy are about broke, and Spain and Portugal irrelayant factors Every body knows that the South American so-called republics are such only in name and are really aristocracies, with the president as chief of the gang. Mexico is in a still worse condition and Diaz is as absolute as the Czar. In all those countries the laborers are peons, working for a few cents a day, living in huts and eating scraps and offal. It is easy to call a country a republic, but it depends upon the population to make it one. Ex.gov. Hoax Smith says: Experience shows that Negroes improve most rapidly where there are fewest of them in proportion to the number of whites, but leaves it to THE AP-EAL to explain the cause of the phenomenon, which the latter attempts to do. Compare, for instance, Kansas and Georgia. In the former every Afro-American child has excellent schools; in Georgia, he has a miserable excuse of a school, taught by a half-starved teacher, for two or three months in the year. Poland is becoming very restless and a source of great uneasiness to the three great powers which many years ago stole and divided her territory among themselves. Each of these powers has to reserve an army for the special purpose of guarding its stealings. THE LURE OF TROUSERS EVER POTENT TO ACTRESS THE LORD OF THE RINGS To the actress the lure of the trousers is ever patent. Hardly has the stage any leading actress, but who has either played or aspires to play masculine roles. The number constantly increases. In the old days women after succeeding in delineating roles of their own sex attempted the classical parts usually assigned to men. Thus there are records of many successful "Hamlets" and "Iagos" to the credit of women. But in such performances the essential skill to read the sublime lines of the greatest of poets would have gained toleration, even if the spark of dramatic genius burned very low. But to play the male roles in modern dramas seems in some respects a still more remarkable ambition, for the modern public, grown indifferent to the serious aims of dramatic art, insists on being entertained, and it takes a pretty clever woman to shift from her own natural garb to that of the other sex and still make good. The greatest of all actresses, the mighty Bernhardt, has often crossed the line, and as in the case of everything she does, has been eminently successful. Not less than half a dozen male roles have gone to the credit of the French genius. She was seen in this country in three, being a superb "Hamlet," a pathetic "Duke of Reichstadt," and a clever hero in "Le Passant." Bernhardt Goes Into Training It is related of Bernhardt that when she was training for her appearance in Rostand's "L'Aiglion" that she wore nothing but men's clothes for many months so as to get herself thoroughly habituated to them, and those who saw the graceful ease with which she wore the coat, trousers and boots of the unfortunate son of the great Napoleon can readily believe the story. In Paris Bernhardt has enacted the title role in de Masset's "Lorenzaccio." But this by no means exhausts her ambition. She is anxious to play the role of "Romeo" just as soon as a great actress can be obtained to play "Juliet" in French. For a long time Bernhardt has been anxious to try her talents in the role of "Mephistopheles," and only the difficulty of getting the kind of arrangement of the play she wanted has deferred this curious experiment. A whole row of "Rosalinds" and "Violas" may explain how, to some extent, women get the ambition to wear the masculine clothing. These roles were naturally in the repertoire of every serious actress of a generation ago, and they survive today among the favorites of actresses who still retain a preference for the classics. They are not strictly speaking masculine roles, for the principal figure is a woman masquerading as a man, and the audience knows at all times that it is not out of the secret of the real sex of the performer. But an experience in these parts nearly always has the effect of inspiring the brilliant and intellectual actress to further efforts in the same line. Julia Marlowe Gets Craze. It was so with Julia Marlowe. She Sarah Bernhart WEST POINT O Virginia Military Insti "In all the professions and vocations of life," says a writer in the National Magazine, "the men trained at the Virginia military institute have won for themselves honorable distinction. The record of services rendered by her sons in the Civil, Spanish and Philippine wars has established the reputation of the Virginia military institute upon an enduring foundation. "In the regular army her graduates are found in numbers second only to those of West Point. The marine corps and the navy also claim a large number of these finely educated and disciplined young men. The institute has been officially recognized by the imperial government of China, a number of student cadets from the Flowery Kingdom having been sent to the institute. "At the commencement exercises in June 1908, the guest of honor, Maj. succeeded as "Viola" and "Rosalind," and immediately began directing her energies to finding a suitable role in which she could play a man's part all through. Just about this time came "L'Aiglon." Marlowe was wildly enthusiastic to play the part. But Mr. Charles Frohman gave it to Maude Adams, with the result that he and Miss Marlowe parted company. Adams made a great success in the part. It started her on the way to success in parts calling for other than skirts. Her "Peter Pan" was not only a great success, but it was probably the crowning artistic achievement of a most sweet and talented little woman. After this she played the role of "The Jester." But Marlowe demonstrated that she also had the talent that leads to sex in masculine roles, for she gave a most artistic performance of the little play "Chatterton." Annie Russell, an actress somewhat THE MASTER OF THE MASTER'S TROUBLE A. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z. Vesta Tilley as "Johnnie." on the same lines as Maude Adams, tried her talent as "Puck" in a "Midsummer Night's Dream," and was very successful. So, too, Ethel Barrymore, another actress given to the delineation of the sugary type of girl, of presenting the opposite sex in tried what she could do in the way "Carrofs," and the public greatly liked the novelty. A host of comic operas with women playing male roles might be mentioned, except that in this line of work there never has been an interruption to the feminine fondness for male attire. But in comic opera the answer is easy. There tights are far more potent than skirts, and the best way to per- as "Hamlet." F THE SOUTH Institute Has a Brilliant Record Gen. J. Franklin Bell, chief of staff of the United States army, addressing the cadets, referred to the school as an institution which of its kind is second to none other in the world.' "On the anniversary of the conflict now known as Newmarket day at the institute the names of the cadets who fell in battle at that time are inserted in the company rolls, and as they are called by the sergeant a cadet of the first class steps to the front, salutes and reports; 'Died on the field of honor, sir.' Their names will ever live in the memory of the institute and of the commonwealth of Virginia. "Five of the killed are buried in the cadet cemetery on the institute grounds, and on Newmarket day the battalion marches to this beautiful and secluded spot and there fires three volleys over the graves of the young heroes. --- mit the doffing of the long skirt and get into public view that such is calculated to draw the crowd is to have the leading lady play the part of a man, preferably the part of some dashing swashbuckler with brilliant uniform. Looked Part Ideally. Of well remembered portrayals of men's roles on the operatic stage, nothing much finer can be recalled than that Jessie Bartlett Davies used to do as "Alan Dale" in "Robin Hood." Not only did she look the part ideally, and sing it flawlessly, but she was so finished in her bearing and she maintained the illuion perfectly. The same tendency is to be found on the grand opera stage. Women there are also anxious to bid brief adieux to their skirts. Mary Garden thus appeared in the role of "Jean" in the famous Massaret opera "The Juggler of Notre Dame," and is credited with winning success for a work that was only very mildly considered when the leading role was intrusted to ran. Old records of the stage show many women playing "Hamlet." It is now not far short of a century ago that both Mrs. Bartley and Mrs. Campbell made successful appearances in this part. Charlotte Barnes, Mrs. Shaw, Fanny Wallack, Mrs. Brougham, Mrs. Denin, Mrs. F. B. Conway, Julia Seaman and Adela Beilgrade used to make regular appearances in the role of the A. M. hapless Prince of Denmark, and reviews from current publications show that they not only were treated with great respect, but actually seemed able to give genuine pleasure to their audiences. Belgrade played the role here not more than a score of years ago. Mrs. Daniel Bandham was another "Hamlet" of some repute, and that most excellent actress, Mrs. Emma Waller, who had the gift of doing almost anything, played the role of "Iago" to the "Othello" of her husband, and contributed her share to a thrilling performance. Two Great Rivals. The two great rivals of a score of years ago, Januschek and Modjeska, both appeared on numerous occasions in masculine roles, the great voice and ponderous personality of the former especially suited her to this line of work. Marie Prescott was perhaps the last of the feminine Iagos that have been seen in this country. Excepting Bernhardt, no one has attempted "Hamlet" lately, though Helen Mora, the once popular contrasto, noted for the depth of her voice, once gave an act of "Hamlet" as a feature of her vaudeville performance, and was well received. Only lately Marie Brema, well remembered as one of the best dramatic singers heard in this country in recent years, figured in a revival of the famous old-time opera by Gluck, "Orpheus," which was put on to indulge her desire to sing the masculine role of the noted poet of the classics. Vaudeville has a host of performers like Vesta Tilley, Elsie Janis and Ethel Levy who can do the masculine attire without 'showing any awkwardness. There is something very appealing to the average theater-goer in the effort of women to play male roles. Particularly are women interested in the experiment. Deep down in every woman's heart is the conviction that when the universe was planned man got a little the better of things. To have a chance to wear for a time the habiliments of this superior creature is something that never fails to attract the actress herself and the feminine part of her audiences. "One cannot leave this little cemetery without feelings of deepest emotion as he contemplates the sacrifices so gallantly made years ago by the youthful soldiers of Viginia. A more beautiful spot for a last resting place was never seen than this—in the quiet and peaceful valley of the Shenandoah." Odd Recovery of a Tape Measure. The explorers were sitting, one on each side of the president, when Dr. Stein produced from his waistcoat pocket a small spring tape measure in a tiny aluminum drum. "It is a very curious thing," said Dr. Stein, "but in 1906 when I was in eastern Tibet I picked up this measure at the foot of an old ruin. I have carried it ever since and use it constantly." Dr. Sven Hedin took the measure in his hand. "This is mine," he said at once. "I lost it in Tibet in 1901," and he named the spot where he believed he had dropped it, with the number of miles it was distant from a certain great lake. This proved to be the spot where it was found. --- Two Great Rivals. TRACED FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR 1800. No Thought at That Time That the Building Ever Would Be Too Small for the National Legislators. The present conditions of the national capitol and its surroundings were not in the wildest dreams of the people 100 years ago, and had one at that time asserted that the time would come when the building would be too small for the legislators his sanity would have been questioned. For then, besides the members and were not in the wildest dreams of the people 100 years ago, and had one at that time asserted that the time would come when the building would be too small for the legislators his sanity would have been questioned. For then, besides the members and supreme court of the United States, the circuit court of the district, the clerk, marshal, grand and petit juries had apartments. When, in the summer of 1800, the government located at Washington, with John Adams at the head, the work on the capitol had been in progress some years, the foundations in the walls of the south wing built up a few feet, and the work on the north wing so far advanced that November 17 the second session of the Sixth congress was convened therein. There were but 34 senators and less than 150 representatives. Mr. Jefferson was vice-president; Gen. John E. Howard of Maryland, president prot. of the senate; Theodore Sedgewick of Massachusetts, speaker of the house; S. A. Otis of Massachusetts, secretary of the senate, and J. W. Condy of Pennsylvania, until December 3, 1800, and John Beckley of Virginia, until 1807, clerks of the house. The senate was permanently in this wing, but not always in one, and the case was the same with the house. In January, 1801, the courts, with their clerks and the marshal, moved into the lower rooms, and in 1802 the first case of murder was tried there, that of McGirk for the murder of his wife, for which he was hanged near where the Botanic Garden is now. This was a more than ordinary congress, inasmuch as for the first time it became necessary for the house to decide the presidential contest, there having been a tie on the electoral vote between Mr. Adams and Mr. Jefferson, and in the house the latter was chosen. There was much other important business relating to foreign relations, Indian affairs, etc., and from then till each house became settled in its chamber the members made the best of their surroundings, legislating amid the noise, dust and the other customary accompaniments of building operations. The south wing was covered in 1806-07, and on October 26 following the house in the first session of the Tenth congress was there convened, Gen. Varnum being the speaker, though the chamber was not completed. It was discovered at once that there was so much echo as to render it difficult to conduct business, but this was partially overcome by the hanging of draperies. Thus the "whispering stones," to which capitol guides are wont to take strangers, now that the walls are bare of drapery, are accounted for; the discovery was then made. In the north wing, after the house in 1807 had vacated the library, it was taken by the senate, and the work in the senate chamber, as well as on the rooms occupied by the courts, was completed. The senate, in the meantime, occupied the library, but February 10, 1810, it was again in its chamber. In 1811 both wings were reported substantially complete, but subsequently appropriations were made for finishing the north wing. Thus stood the capitol at the time of the invasion by the British, August 23, 1814; two wings covered in and occupied, and across the foundation of the center building, laid before 1803, was an inclosed walk connecting the two. After the war, while congress occupied temporary quarters, the damage was repaired and the central building erected, being finished about 1828. Was Determined to Wed. Swathed like a mummy and lying on a cot in the Punxsutawney (Pa.) hospital, James Sharkey, who a week previous fell 90 feet from a bridge, peeped with one eye from his bandages and watched the ceremony that made him a husband. Miss Bessie McLaughlin, daughter of Justice of the Peace I. B. McLaughlin, of Somerville, was the bride. The marriage register was signed by the injured man, but he had to hold the pen between his teeth to do it, making his mark. Sharkey fell from a railroad bridge and both arms and one leg were broken, his abdomen was ripped open and his face was bruised almost beyond recognition, and one eyeed split. He did not lose consciousness and demanded that his wedding plans be carried out. Marketing a New Product Mrs. Dexter, from somewhere "downstate," was enjoying her first ride in a crowded street car in Chicago. It happened that a health officer, in the performance of his regular duties, was taking a sample of the air in the car. Mrs. Dexter saw his manipulations, but could not understand them, so she turned to a policeman who was sitting next her. "I beg your pardon," she said, "but can you tell me what that man is doing? "Yes, ma'am," answered the officer. "He's bottling th' atmosphere." "For mercy's sake!" exclaimed Mrs. Dexter. "What won't they do next? Do they can the air and sell it now, adays?"—Youth's Companion. Plays on White House Roof. Charlie Taft, youngest son of the president, had eight or ten friends playing ball in the back yard of the White House the other day. Tiring of that form of sport, the boys went into the White House and climbed to the roof, where they ran around for an hour or two, making spectators nervous by daring stunts of walking in dangerous places.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN.

We are in the business for the benevolence of the public and we know no one by color except of the African. All will alike receive the best treatment possible. The rumor is maliciously false. Any one wishing our services has only to call upon us to verify this statement. NAGEL UNDERTAKING CO, William E. Nagel, Mgr. Poisoned by Honeysuckle Pollished by Honeysuckle. One of the most favorite and beautiful our flowers is the common honeysuckle, but it would seem that it have its dangers. The Lanceana科 have case occurring in the practice of Dr. Engh of Volden, in which a little boy, two years old, was poisoned by its offers. The child after being in the garden playing with the flowers became tired and drowsy and then complained of thirst. Our contemporary describes the symptoms that followed and adds that the boy made a good recovery, but was peevish and inert for some days. Various kinds of honeysuckle have been used medicinally as diuretics and diaphoretics, and it is well that it should be known that some of the varieties at all events are far from harmless. The flowers appear to be specially dangerous when freshly picked. THE CARNIVAL. Of the U. B. F. and S. M. T. a Grand Success. The grand two days' carnival was held at Hiwatua Temple on Monday and Tuesday this week was a most enjoyable and successful fair, and its success is due in no small measure to Miss Viola Berry the chairman of the carnival committee who was indefatigable in her labors. Monday night the program consisted eof a minstrel performance given by the children of Golden Gate Temple (Juvenile) under the management of Mr. Addie Belleen, Moth Marathon, McKinley Brown, interlocutor; Carl Claiborn and Chaunce Miller, endmen.

Marlene Johnson, William and Theodore Ridley, Grace and Ruth Harris, Foster Brown, Theo Collier, Florence Robinson, Lillie Thompson, Jas. Henley, Bessie Jones, Almericue Barkside, did such excellent work that youngsters did such excellent work that they repeat it Tuesday night.

The Minneapolis lodges of the Temple will hold their thanksgiving services at St. Peter church at 8:00 p. m. and it is hoped as many of the members of Order from St. Paul as possible will attend.

Tuesday night was the joint initiation of North Star and Ramsey Lodges at Tachida Hall when 16 new members were introduced to the mysteries of the order. Eleven in North Star and five in Ramsey at the body 40 strong marched to the carnival and had supper and witnessed the close of the great carnival. Work's Graham Crackers are de licious. WEALTH HIDDEN IN OLD TABLE Problem California Woman Left for Public Administrator to Solve. Cunningly hidden in a secret receptacle defy carved in the leg of an antique table, the fortune of the late Mrs. Jessie Fremont Ditsch of San Francisco, gen. John C. Fremont, was found recently by the deputy public administrator, W. J. Hynes. The neatly fastened little bundle gave up a bank book showing deposits of $4,200, a costly collection of time honored jewelry and countless shares in wildcat concerns worth their waste paper value. The discovery of the effects of the erratic woman of historic lineage ends a search that Hynes and his men pursued for several days with great earnestness. When Mrs. Dietsch died, on April 28, alone and in seclusion, her effects were taken charge of by the public administrator in the absence of any near relatives. The officers were informed that the old woman was possessed of great wealth and the stories came from such reliable sources that it was deemed advisable to make a complete search of the premises. With this end in view Hynes and his tenants strained every effort to locate the hidden treasure. Every article in the house was overturned and thoroughly searched without avail. Even the carpets and tapestries were ripped open in the hope that they would yield some of the glittering gold which the aged recluse was supposed to possess. Just as Hynes was about to abandon the search he accidently knocked off the hollow leg of an ancient table. In a cleverly contrived ccache the public administrator spied an old wallet. Opening the bag, Hynes discovered that it contained the bank book, jewels and stock certificates. Uses of a London Church.

The building is opened for the accommodation of girls and women who arrive in the city by the "workingmen's" trains, which frequently are run at such an hour as to compel the passengers to make a long wait after arriving in the city for their places of business to open. A short service is conducted, and then the congregation is permitted and even encouraged to employ themselves with needlework or with reading. The women and girls are provided with reading matter, though care is taken that it shall not be too narrow in its range. No Error! Herbert had a way of telling make-believe stories about the things he saw, and his mother wished to convince him that they were not true. So, one day when he saw a dog pass and began a story about its being a rabbit, she bade him run away and pray God to forgive him for telling an untruth. Very soon he returned and exclaimed: "God says that's all right, mother. He thought it was a grizzly, too." What is the secret of German success? It is to be found in one word—discipline. Discipline, self-sacrifice for the state's sake—not the sacrifice of the state's interests for our own—that right implies responsibilities, these qualities that the modern Englishman needs to cultivate. The Motive. Teacher—Yes, children, when the war broke out all the able-bodied men who could leave their families enlisted in the army. Now, can any one tell me what motive took them to the front? Bright Boy (trumphantly)—Locomotives. A Swedish Utopia. Orsa, in Sweden, has in the course of a generation sold $5,550,000 worth of trees, and by means of judicious replanting has provided for a similar income every thirty or forty years. There is no taxes, Railways and telephone are free, and are so the school teaches and many other things. MINNEAPOLIS DOINGS IN AND ABOUT THE GREAT "FLOUR CITY."

Gaines and Walter M. Farnum as to which was the legally elected National Grand Master of United Brothers Friendship in Lexington, Ky. The national executive board met some time after the adjournment of the National Grand lodge at Louisville, Ky., and sustained the election of Gaines and expelled Farnum from the order. Whereupon Farnum bought suit in Louisville, Ky., to establish the legality of his claim to the office of National Grand Master. The case was decided in Farmer's favor. Gaines then appealed to the Court of Appeals where he won his sweeping victory as the following letter: 'Texarkana, Tex., May G. 1999. M. F. H. Prendergast. The court today decided the case of Gaines, et al., vs. Farmer et al., reversing and dismissing the case. The opinion is by Judge Hodges, and he holds that the district court of Harrison County had no jurisdiction of the controversy between Farmer and Gaines; in fact, fully sustains our contention that, inasmuch as no pecuniary value is attached to the offices in question, that the court should not have committed the liability of the election at Lexington. The decision is a sweeping one and the effect of it is that a general demurrier should have been sustained to both Farmer's original and supplemental petitions. I congratulate you upon the result. Atty. for Plaintiff. This is highly gratifying to State Grand Master Dillingham, as it precludes the possibility of any contest over the National Grand Lodge in St. Paul. And he desires to express his thanks and gratitude to all the members of the order who supported him in his stand for National Grand Master. He appeals to all that we work as one for the grand meeting in July. Buy 'em and try 'em and you'll buy 'em all the time—Krippy Crackers. WE ASK AGAIN HAVE YOU TRIED THEM?

The ikons in the Cathedral of the Assumption in the Kremlin at Moscow are immensely valuable. They yielded above five tons of silver and five hundredweight of gold to the French soldiery in 1812, but this treasure was recovered by the Cossacks, who in their gratitude presented to the cathedral silver chandelier weighing 900 pounds. The jewels with which the ikonostas is adorned are valued at £25,000, a single emerald being worth £10,000. There is a Bible so large that two men are needed to lift it, and it is studded with gold and emeralds and other stones. A sober estimate of the weight of gold used in the ikonostas and vessels of this famous church alone places it at 106 hundredweight. To Change Umbrella Handles Sometimes a person would like to change an expensive umbrella handle to another umbrella and fasten it on solid. This can be done by cleaning out the hole left in the handle from the old rod and filling the hole with powdered sulphur. Place the handle in a solid upright position, and after heating the umbrella rod red hot push the rod down into the hole containing the sulphur. The hot rod fuses the sulphur and woken cold it will hold the rod solid. This method may be applied to fastening rods into stone, iron or wood. Father's Joy. It is surprising how little money a man can get along on when his family needs it all. Perkins looked very happy these days. "He has reason to," Brown replied. "After his wife and children had been fitted out with their winter wardrobes he found there was enough left to have a new collar put on his overcoat." Point of Difference "Yes, said the bride of three short months, "I had made up my mind to remain in the spinster class, then John appeared upon the scene and I accepted him because he was so unlike other men." "Oh, of course, he's different," rejoined the envious lady friend. "He proposed. THE BARBLESS FISHHOOK. Trout Taken With It and Released Would Have Better Chance of Life. In all of the books on fishing will be found treatises on the theory of the fishhook, its functions, its shape and the position of the point, with reference to its ability so to hook the fish that the barb will be embedded and escape prevented. This is the function of the barb—to prevent the fish from getting away. As a rule it is effective, but is it necessary? For still fishing it may or may not be. Much depends on the skill of the angler. If all of the trout hooked by fishermen were to be kept and killed there would be little if any trout fishing in a few years. If all of the trout that are returned to the water live the popular form of hook would leave nothing to be desired, but injured fish may not—and many of them do not—survive the injury from the barb and from handling. Therefore the needlepoint barbless hook deserves consideration by those who put back undersized trout and for fishing where trout run small. So skillful are a vast number of our trout fly fishers that in their hands the barbless book would probably prove as effective in hooking and landing the trout as any barbed hook now used. Occasionally we hear of trout that have been taken on barbless hooks, and too of those that are lost, but little is known by the average angler concerning these hooks, as they are not regularly made for the trade, though they can probably be had, as they can be easily made by one skilled metal worker. Pride in Her Husband. Sir Melville Beachcroft, who is a practical philanthropist and a social reformer of the useful type, while waiting a tenement house for the occupant of the first floor to admit him chanced to overhear two women conversing on the stairs. One chanced to remark that her husband always wore a clean shirt every Sunday morning. The other replied: "Well, now, I never cares about Sundays, but I always do see that 'e' as a clean shirt every Saturday afternoon, 'cos that' the time he is generally drinking, and when 'e' does take his coat off to fight I do like to see him look nice and clean." It Stuck. The cat was being pursued by Patrick around and around the kitchen. A sudden turn in the chase landed it "keepknuck" into the crock containing the pancake batter. It scrambled out barely in time to escape a blow from a poker wielded by Patrick, and shot out into the yard. "Lave the poor baste go," begged Biddy, seeking to make peace. "The batter ain't hurt in the leaste. Every place he touched it has stuck to him." The Age of Courtesy. No one denies that there is today among many people a sad lack of politeness and courtesy, and that society, or at least certain classes of it, would be all the better for a rigid observance of these graces; but it is not to be thought for one moment that our grandfathers and grandmothers were above suspicion in this respect.
