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. 3-It corresponds with the slogan and energetic MONUMENT IN HONOR OF AMERICAN INDIAN At Gateway of Country That Once Was His Will Rise — Heroic Statue of Indian. Chief White Man, Another Fine Type of a Vanishing Race. VOL. 25. NO. 25. MONUMENT IN THE OF A At Gateway of Country The Heroic Star At the gateway of the country that once was his, a heroic monument is soon to rise in honor of the American Indian. The project is one to stir the imagination. In the harbor of New York a rival to the Bartholdi statue will rise, a figure of the aboriginal owner of North America. Back to the movement stands the wealth of Rodman Wannamaker, son of John Wannamaker, the famous merchant, and numerous other men of means, including some of the most famed of American generals who led the way against the redskin in battle, and have promised to lend their assistance. It is a curious thought, one that seems most unexpected and out of place to do honor thus to the original American. This has not been the custom in the white man's attitude to the storage, the displaces. The whole record of the gradual wiping out of the many tribes of Indians is one that reflects little credit on the Caucasian race. Barring only William Penn, that kindly Quaker, each successive leader of colonies in the new world, set him in the task of reducing the Indian. Is Vanishing Race. The march of civilization never scruples, and it was not over choice in the relation it had with the Indian in the new world. Massacres and warfare took off a large proportion of the redskin owners of the forests, streams and lands, and the introduction of vices, to which civilization had become incurred, but which worked quick have among the unimilitated aborigines, gradually decimated the countless hordes of the natives, until to-day the Indian is nearly complete, and the Indian is vanishing race. No longer is there work for Indian fighters like Gen. Miles, M雍Bill Bill, Gen. Horace Porto, Gen. Leonard Wood. Off the plains and their predecessors have swapt the painted Indian with his buckskin trappings, and only such occasional ludicrous little outbreaks as those of Crazy Snake recall the days when an Indian uprising constituted a great and terrible peril. The primitive race has yielded its way. The Indian schools directed to teaching the red man the ways of the white and giving him a chance to make his progress in the world of civilization, have not entirely succeeded. The trousers and coat of modern civilization have not availed to wean the Indian away from his blanket, his headress, his moccasins. He sees the world in a different way. Forefathers are to throw himself hopelessly out of the hope of advance, yet there are in him constitutionally elements that him to life of the white man, and hence he pursues his way, uncertainly and falteringly to that one destiny that awaits him—extinction. It is a story of polignant pathos, yet one that cannot be altered to have a different conclusion. The Indian is a great deal of a fatalist. He has not dash, the endurance, the resistance of the white man. He sees little use of trying, the ways of the world have gone beyond him, he is hopeless and helpless. In respect to literature the Indian has been over idealized by those who admired him, especially writers like James Fenimore Cooper, and i respect to actual experience he has been Chief White Man, Another Fine Ty Race. Sorry He Spoke. Suffragette—What is a party without women? Mere Man (flippantly)—A stag party. Sufragette—Exactly. And what, sir, would this nation be without women but stagnation.

In picking out a model for the statue to be erected in New York it will not be found difficult to get heroic models from among Indians who are living to day. The primal cultures of men living in the north and close to native came to the red men as a gift of the life and in the tall, straight, powerfully muscled men of the forest, were to be found a century ago some of the finest specimens of manhood in the world. Heroic in Native Garb. The fascination the Indian has exerted over the grown up boy as well as the small boy, undoubtedly results in part from the heroic appearance he presents in his native garb. By contrast, the native man is much than a redskin wearing the garb of civilization. It is an effort as grotesque as to put evening clothes on a statue of Apollo. Before the government by a policy ```markdown ``` THE CENTRAL PARK THE INDIAN How the Indian Looks in Statuary. of branches of contract and a sanctioning of graft and plunder, gradually stripped the Indian of all he possessed, the race in this country presented a notable display of virility. At a recent dinner in New York which Rodman Wanamaker gave in furtherance of his project to render a tardy tribute to those whom the whites dispossessed of the land of the republic, there were present two Indian. In the white and gold banquet half of Sherry's they might have been expected to look singularly out of place, for everything else there was modern, and spoke the white man's civilization. of a Vanishing Chief Medicine Crow, V Model for t Chief Medicine Crow, Who Would M Model for the Projected Chief Medicine Crow, Who Would Make an Excellent Model for the Projected Status. Killed Hawk with a Stone. H. W. Hanlin, a Hanover township farmer, who was a baseball pitcher years ago, has no forgottent how to "put them over." With a stone recently he killed a big hawk he discovered devouring one of his chickens. Standing thirty yards away Hanlin hurled a stone wit husk accuracy that t struck the bird squarely on the head. The hawf measured four feet six inches from tip to tip. Defective Page the message of the twentieth century of luxury and of progress. Two hundred white men were there arrayed in the garb of convention, the plain black and white of evening clothes. But the glow and glitter of a banquet service did not take from the Indian his impressiveness, and either of these redskins, Chief Ironshorn or his son could admirably have been the model for the statue to which the snake mimes reference. The nodding plumes and painted, impassive faces of the redskins made a curious contrast to the whole-note of the dinner, yet none could say that the redskins guests lacked dignity or failed to represent their race with credit. Many Superb Figures Still. Even in the present passing condition of the race there are still many such superb figures in the tribal lands of the West, and the sculptor who gets the assignment to prepare the bronze statue will not find any trouble to get a model who will express the true dignity and power of the Indian as he was in the primeval days. The plan as at present outlined is to show the statue of bronze, to be executed by some American sculptor and placed on Governor's island. Here it would face Ambrose channel and would be right in line with the route of the big ships as they come into the inner harbor. ```markdown ``` Thus every incoming steamship would come close to the great statue where the Indian would stand forth in his native garb, a memory of greatness that once was. When the white man first came to the new world, the Indian met his ships. Many of the red men came in kindness, and but for wrongs executed by the newcomer, would have lived in peace with the white man. But the page of history has been written. The Indian has gone the way of the buffalo. A memorial of what he once 'was would seem little more than诗ic justice. ow, Who Would Ma ke an Excellent for the Projected Statue. A Calking Time.

Yet the Work Just Completed Was a Record-Breaking Piece of Rail-roading All the Same. Just 40 years had elapsed on May 10 since the rails of the Union Pacific moving westward met the rails of the Central Pacific moving eastward at Promontory Point near Orgen, Utah, and the first transcontinental railroad was completed. When Thomas Durant of the Union Pacific and Gov. Leland Stanford of California drove the last spikes in the first continent girding line on May 10, 1869, the whole country, says Leslie's Weekly, was metaphorically looking on. Things were very different 40 years later when, without any golden spike, without the presence of any of the principal officers of the company, the last rail on the Pacific coast extension of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad, now known as the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound railroad, was laid at a point two miles east of Missoula, Mont., just before the five o'clock whistle blew on March 31 last. There was no celebration of any kind, and the only speech was the remark of the contractor to the foreman, "Bill, that's a good job." The length of the extension just completed from the Missouri river to Seattle and Tacoma is a trifle over 1,400 miles and brings the total mileage of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad up to 9,000 miles. The completion of the new transcontinental line creates a world's record for rapidity of railroad construction. The first shovelful of earth on the new line was turned on 15, 1906. No Pacific coast line of any, and no line of equal length crossing the mountain ranges has ever been constructed within the short period of three years. During this period 60,000,000 cubic yards of material have been excavated, 360,000 yards of tunnel driven, 20 miles of bridges erected, and 200,000 tons of 85-pound rails laid at a total cost of $5,500. The blasting of the new transcontinental line will be completed some time in June, and regular freight and local passenger service will be established thereafter. The new line as far west as the city of Butte, Mont., has been in regular operation since September, 1908. With the Wrecking Crew With the Wrecking Crew. A member of the local wrecking crew told me that he had answered the blast call, going out to assist at a scene mishap, when he was scarcely able to stand with darkness—and sickness from compulsory duty, says a writer in the San Francisco Call. There is something in the very summons itself which sets the wrecker's heart to steel and prompts an almost instinctive answering of the summons, despite all detaining circumstances. I know personally of an ex-wrecker, some months discharged, who jumped aboard the emergency train of an eastern division as it was leaving the yards in answer to a summons, and when discovered by the wreck boss who had discharged him pleaded to be allowed to work as he had always done, even without pay. And for six hours' subsequent toll, to which he had raced like an old fire horse answering the old call, he did, as a matter of fact, receive no pay. Similar incidents, I am told, are common. There is something in the life which allures. We seem so serious enough to warrant it, the wreck master sends for the repair gang, provided such gang has not gone with the crew at the start, and within an hour or two a temporary track of track has been laid around the obstruction, and blocked trains—often enough with six or seven sections impatiently waiting behind the wrecked one—are permitted to get into some sort of schedule again. Road's Remarkable Record A report just issued by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company shows that in 1908 the company made the remarkable record of carrying 141,650,543 passengers over its 23,000 miles of track without having killed a single passenger in a train accident. The number of passengers carried during the year decreased by 11,344,413, a loss of 7.4 per cent. but the total number of passengers injured in train accidents was only 102, a reduction of 452, or 81.6 per cent. These figures include every case which resulted in surgical or medical treatment, however trivial it might be. Carrying every injury, no matter how slight, the Pennsylvania lines injured only one traveler in every 1,338,819 carried. It is said that the number of passengers carried a distance of one mile during the year was 3,454,671,462, so that for each passenger thus carried the proportion of injured was one in 33,938,739. The passenger trains of the Pennsylvania traveled during the year a total of 58,440,449 miles, and on tracks running parallel and close to the passenger tracks, the company made a total of 60,293,996 freight train miles.

PERIL OF SPIKES TESTS NERVE OF BALL PLAYERS PERIL OF SPIKES TESTS NERVE OF BALL PLAYERS Daring Base Runners Make Capital of the Fact It Is Known They Are Reckless. Sliding Feet First for the Bag. Only to Be Tagged Out. Third Baseman Getting a Player by Tagging Him From Behind. That baseball will soon be as dangerous as football unless a means is found to do away with "splitting" is the opinion of many experts. Hardly a day passes that some player in the big league is not put out of the game as a result of being gashed by the sharp steel plates worn on the ball player's shoes to keep him from slipping and cliding over the grass. Both baserunner and guardian of the bag must display absolute courage in making close plays. The runner dares not show up for fear of being put out, and losing a chance to score a run that will perhaps spell victory, and for his part the guardian of the bag must be recklessly indifferent to the peril of a collision. Consequently they are smashing together all the time, ankles, feet and legs are cut, bones are broken, and injuries that take valuable men out of their terms. Managers come to so thoroughly understand the perils that go with putting a on baserunner that almost the first question they ask when they are inquiring into the abilities of a newcomer is: "Can he touch out baserunners?" This looks easy. It might be expected to be a simple feature of an infielder's work, but as a matter of fact it is the hardest. It is a play whose difficulties escape Sliding the average spectator. He can see and thrill when a long hit is made, a difficult running catch completed, a one-handed stop and accurate throw put through, but the skill and nerve necessary to escape the spikes and touch out the base runner are features of the game lightly esteemed by the man with a knowledge of the inside. In Imminent Persil. A close play is never made but that the baseman is put in imminent peril. In his eagerness to reach the bag the base runner has no time to be careful. If he showed any undue caution he would be voted a quitter, and would soon find himself out of a job. He must come straight through, never thinking of consequences, either to himself or to the man he is seeking to elude. In fact, a large percentage of runners will slide even to first base on bunts or slow grounders whenever there is a chance of beating them out. Therefore not even the first baseman is immune from the peril of getting mixed up with the spikes. Cases of intentional spiking are, of many ball players will in- Third Baseman Services on a Church Tower Services on a Church Tower. The Rev. J. Eurraght, vicar of Ranworth (Norfolk), and the church choir mounted to the top of the church tower and there offered prayers and sang hymns and psalms, invoking the burying bless upon the growing crops. Despite the altitude of the tower and a good breeze, every word was audible to the congregation assembled in the church yard below and on the road. tentionally main a fellow player. Yet in the anger and excitement of the game men lose their heads and often forget that in their sober senses they regret. Catcher Most Exposed. The catcher is more exposed to the splitting peril than any of his fellows, so he probable reason that plays are at the heart of the game, inspected. Here is the final station. The runner has moved around to the last stretch of his journey, but as far as the vital question of run making goes, he might as well never have gone to bat unless he can cross the plate. Therefore extra recklessness inspires him when he gets to this point. The catcher is correspondingly anxious to stop him. This is a combination that leads to many serious smush-ups. One catcher, Roger Bresnahan, was so oftte the victim of spikes that he invented the use of a shin guard similar to the one that figures in cricket, and his example has been followed by other catchers, notably Schiel of New York, and McLean of Cincinnati. Some catchers wear protection underneath their stockings. It is not in evidence, it does the work, nevertheless, coin, of the Phillies, is one of the most iconic stops in the country in putting the tag on that in spite of the fact that he is one of lightest catchers in the game. Feet First for the Bag, Only to Be Taught He has mastered the trick of putting the ball on a man with a minimum danger to himself. Dooin is a student of the game. None of his plays is a result of chance. When he first broke into fast company he found out that he was constantly being knocked over and jumped around while tagging runners. He has a new system. He cheerfully runs the runner, but he makes it a point to fall on top, and it is a thing virtually unknown for him to be damaged. Cobb Is a Cyclone. Men like Ty Cobb of Detroit, the sensational young player who in a couple of seasons has taken a rating with the greatest stars known to the history of baseball, is one of the hardest men in the game to tag. The Detroit cyclone has not a single impulse of fear or caution when he on the bags. He is there to score, no matter how or how much he or any one other trick him may be damaged in the process. That is why all the base guardians have to be a little extra careful when Tyrus is speeding around the paths. Getting a Player by Tagging Him For They Go Together. "Use headwork," urged the manager of the department store. "Yes, sir," said the salesman. "For instance, if a lady buys lawn it ought to be easy to sell her some hose." Vaguely Understood it. Sunday School Teacher—Clarence, do you know the meaning of the word "amen?" Little Clarence—Yes'm. I means "ring off." $2.40 PER YEAR Cobb does not mean to be rough, but daring base running is his specialty. It has been a large factor in his success, and he probably banks largely on the fact that most of the opposition know him to be entirely reckless, and instinctively prepare to give him a little leeway. Cobb slides both ways, head first and feet first, but like most base runners, he prefers the latter. He is a master at arriving at base just the instant the ball reaches there, and many a time the force of the impact loses the sphere out of the baseman's hands and Tyrus is safe. The cloud of dust that obscures close plays of this kind is a great help to many a little bit of sharp practice. The great second baseman and short stopman use the line art of getting the tag on a runner, and it generally admitted that the knowledge is of aamount value in guarding second base. Here a great number of plays come off where quick action is required, for most of the base stealing has second base for an objective point, and in most of the double plays secondbase is one of the stations for which the runners are trying. Bobby' Wallace Is King. It is generally admitted by sharps that the most skilled applier of the tag in baseball today is Bobby Wallace, the veteran shortstop of the St. Louis Americans. Wallace is not a big man, he has not the bulk of many infelders, but he seldom gets hurt, it being another case of knowledge carrying him through in safety. Kling and Sullivan, the two great catchers of the Chicago Notions and Chicago Americans, are the finished product in getting the ball on runners at the plate, and neither of them gets hurt very often, nor do they permit many runners to get away from them. Have Many Tricks. Runners constantly practice means of circumventing the tag. The light, speedy men like Hartsel, Cobb, Tinker. Herzog have all kinds of ways of going to a bag without exposing more than a minimum of their bodies to probability of being tagged. These men can do as much by wrigling and dodging as the more reckless runners can achieve by smashing right into the man with the ball. These runners have sudden movements that are very deceivable. Often only an arm or leg is exposed, and by a sudden swerve even this poor surface will be jerked out of danger long enough to let the runner reach the bag in safety. It is not possible to do away with spikes. The ball players must have them both held in his position and when he is at bat, and on bases. Therefore a premium of courage for the equipment of the infielder, and the nerve must be supplemented with good judgment and a mastery of every trick of touching out the man before he can land. from Behind.

Defe Defective Page move westward, and begin the process ot soil robbery anew, Land that has been cropped with wheat for many years is not neces: sarily infertile ang permanently. un- productive because of such cropping. Continuous wheat culture quickly re duces the supply of organic matter in the soll, and therefore injures. its mel: lowness and water-holding capacity, properties which are essential in a grain-growing soll. ‘The most avail: able elements of mineral plant food are also rapidly exhausted by wheat, and'the crop having also exhausted the organfe matter of the soil, the conditions essential to soll decay are impaired, and the production of new supplies of mineral plant food in the soil is checked. Soils that have been brought to this condition may be reno- vated and made extremely productive again by intelligent schemes of crop rotation, use of live stock and soll lage: It is to be hoped that the present wheat lands of the United States can be utilized for wheat production for many generations to come; but this can be done only by making wheat al- ternate with other field crops in the scheme of cropping, instead of grow- ing the crop continuously until the land must undergo a period of renova- tion before it is again productive, If systems of agriculture could be insti- tuted on all the soils of the United States in which the grain, grass and cultivated crops were alternated, the fertility of our sofls could be indefi nitely maintained. As agriculture {s now practices, however, one region produces a large acreage of one crop to which it is peculiarly fitted at the present time, and some other region another crop. Thus in. many regions fertility is not conserved, but rapidly exhausted, and the intensive systems of agriculture which prevail in the eastern part of the United States build up the eastern soils at the expense of the fertility of the West. him on the spot with his wife and confiscated the stamps, When it ap peared that the stamps were reall Russian the prisoner was released after three days’ detention, It Is reported that the money wil be ‘returned to him, but that the stamps will remain for the benefit of the exchequer.

The Colonel's Hinted Wrath. He was a fine type of the old South ern colonel, the flery scion of a race of cavaliers. Also, he was exceeding ly -wrathy. He had just received a letter from a man, “a low soht of pul son, suh, I assuah you,” which dis Pleased him immensely,” and he was debating inwardly how best to convey to his vulgar correspondent an. ade quate expression of his (the colone''s) opinion of him, But his stenographer jas a lady. ‘The colonel snorted, made two or three false starts, and finally dictated: “Sir—My_ stenogra pher, being a lady, cannot transcribe What I think of you. I, being a gem tleman, cannot think of {t. But, you being neither, will readily undestand what T' mean.” Rr ‘Ak Ciltkina: Time, | Si Seaver to Village Smithy—I sup- pose you blacksmiths reap a harvest ‘shoeing horses in this icy weather? | Village Smithy—Well, yes, I reckon as how I've had a perfectly calking ‘time durin’ th’ past week or so, Also to Pay for Ticket. ‘Traveler—Can I go through to Cht- cago without change?

What will doubtless be an interesting feature to lovers of base ball during the Triennial Meeting of the U. B. F. and S. M. T., week of July 26 to 31, will be the five-game series for the world's championship between the famous Colored Gophers and the present title holders, the crack Leland Giants of Chicago. The Leland Giants, under the able management of the great Rube Foster are unquestionably the greatest team of Afro-American ever organized, and the press and public everywhere they have played are free to admit the fact. Walter Ball, Wm. Gatewood and Rube Foster constitute the greatest trio of Afro-American pitchers ever seen in one team. The announcement by the Gopher management of the coming of the Leland Giants has aroused much interest both in the Twin Cities and the surrounding country, and the down town park will doubtless be taxed to its capacity for these five big games. Managers Reid and Williams, of the Gophers, have put, together a team this year which is second to none, and the best they have financed in their three years' efforts. The latest addition to their team is the Taylor brothers, of the Birmingham club in the Southern Afro-American League. Their work since joining the Gophers has stamped them as finished artists and entitled to a high place in the armament of base ball stars. The Gophers, who left on the 14th inst. for a five weeks' trip, is going at a merry club, sweeping everything before them, 28 games won out of 32 played, is their record to date. And with the great trio of pitchers in Garrison, Taylor and London, backed up by brilliant and superb in and out fielders, and the greatest bunch of sluggers the team has ever had, there seems to be nothing but victory and success ahead for the Gophers.

WOMAN'S TRAVELS IN PERSIA. tah ar ll bbe Yt ltl nat ail Hs elt Gun Carriage. In times of peril in Persia the medical missions have proved to be the safest places not only for Euro- peans but a!so for the Perslans them- selves. Dr. Emmeline Stuart, niece of the veteran Bishop Stuart, had a remarkable story to tell of her own experiences when preparing to leave the country, ‘The only escort available ‘through the disturbed country from Ispahan to Teheran was offered to her by the military authorities, and she accepted it, to fing that it entailed traveling on a gun carriage harnessed six in hand and that for ten days double stages were effected at a hard gallop, while the shelter of the carriage formed her canopy at night. Dr. Stuart testified to the unfailing courtesy and kindliness of the officers to the traveler placed in their charge and reassured the committee as to the absolute safety of the missionaries during this period of unrest by saying that the mission compound at Ispa- han was one of the safest places in the city. In fact, members of the families of officers of the Shah have in the last few months resorted to it as an asylum, Indian Woman’s Fine Jewelry, “It is a rare thing to see the wom- en of India these days wearing any valuable gold jewelry, as they did in years gone by,” said Charles Gawtrey of Bombay, “When I first went to the Orient the women of the upper class com- monly owned and wore thick chains and bracelets of the finest gold and of exquisite workmanship. In these times of pinching poverty they are too reduced financially to possess any expensive ornaments, and Instead of the gold trinkets of thelr affluent days they now wear cheap plated or imita- tion stuff they would have formerly despised, It is pitiable to witness, as I have, the decline in the fortunes of the people. Abject poverty is seen everywhere, and the gaunt specter of starvation is ever at the side of mil lions of human beings in that ill fated land.” ‘Tooted Whistle to Save His House. Discovering the roof of his own home blazing, but forbiden | by _ the rules to leave his cab, W. C, Mori son, an engineer at the Howard yards of the Pennsylvania Railroad compa n:, near West Homestead, yesterday used his engine's whistle to give an alarm. With the whistle cord tied down the engine’s shrieks soon attracted a crowd, which aided the fire depart mont in extinguishing the flames. Sey. eral hundred dollars damage was sus. tained, Morrison, obedient to orders forbid ding him to leave the cab without re Hef, shifted cars in the yards while the’ firemen fought the blaze tha’ threatened his home, She Couldn't Be Fooled. Dr. Walter C. Smith, the Scoteh preacher, once tried to explain to an old lady the meaning of the Scriptural expression, “Take up thy bed and walk.” He said the bed was simply s mat or rug, easily taken up and car ried away. “No, no,” replied the lady, “I canna believe that. ‘The bed was'a regula four-poster. ‘There would be no mir acle in walking away wi’ a bit o° ma or rug on your back." Quick Reoaire.
