The Appeal

THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, waisting no words. 8-Its correspondents are able and energetic. THE GLORIOUS FOURTH VOL. 25. NO. 27. THE GLORIO And How Characters—King George, Washington, the American Boy, the Goddess of Liberty. (Washington and King George enter WASHINGTON. Most noble liege and mighty king, The colonies to you now cling With fond allegiance, and we pray To live beneath your royal sway. No better monarch, site, than you F're reigned o'er people tried and true. We're ever loyal, I give my word. To you, illustrious George the Third. KING GEORGE. Thanks, thanks, most noble Washington. I'm glad the people's hearts I've won— I'm glad contentment now doth reign From Florida to pine-clad Maline; I'm glad the people are not bent On change and want new government. WASHINGTON. New government, oh, no, great sire! No government do we require But yours, and we allegiance give And crave 'neath Britain's flag to live In happiness for ever more. With you, great king, to lord it o'er Old England and New England, too. KING GEORGE (sadly) Thanks, thanks, but, ah! 'twill never do. WASHINGTON What ails my liege, your cheeks turn pale. Your words in deep emotion fail; Some burden's on your noble heart! KING GEORGE. The colonies and I—must part! WASHINGTON (deeply agitated). Must part! Oh, king, what do you mean? We, who are happy and serene, While we have you, our king, to love And Britain's flag to wave above; Why must we part? I lose my breath; Great king, you have scared me half to death. Speak! speak! my liege, that I may glean Some ray of hope. What do you mean? KING GEORGE. Ak, Washington, my noble friend, 'Tis sad to think my reign must end Upon this continent, but so The fates have wilted, and I must go! The lates have wilted, and I must go! WASHINGTON. You break my heart, see how I grieve? What secret have you up your sleeve? Some awful weight preys on your mind. Explain, oh, sire! don't be unkind! Tell me, great king, what does this mean? To swift revolt you must arouse The colonies at once Must we revolt, who're loyal, and die? Why must grim bloodshed's gory stain Besmirch fair valley, hill and plain? Why must we fight? (The American boy rushes on center. He is a typical twentieth century boy, full of life, dash and vigor.) AMERICAN BOY. If you don't we'll have no Fourth of July. I am the great American boy, That sprite of palpitating joy; And I demand—mind, no excuse— One day a year to turn things loose; One day to let the fireworks off, One day to make the old cat cough, And watch her her' the fence top sail, With strings of crackers at her tail; I want a day to shriek and shout And blow my clean inside out; I want a day to work off steam And hear the American eagle scream; A day to let old Europe know, L'après-midi de la vie Lrown-you in your hour victorious. That our band wagon heads the show; A day of grand hilarious mirth, When Uncle Sam owns all the earth; A day when Europe looks amazed And all creation stits back dazed; A day when small boys rule the world And brave Old Glory swings unfurled— Defiance breathing to the spheres, And I, bereft of nose and ears, Sing Yankee Doodle, Doodle Doo! Boys cheer as Washington taps King George on the nose Boys cheer as Washington laps King George on the nose Where are you from, sweet youth so coy? AMERICAN BOY. I am the twentieth century boy. And down the years I've come post haste haste To tell you both you'll be disgraced Forever in our boyish eyes If you don't fight; so if you're wise, Great Washington, King George you'll take And mincemeat of that monarch make. make. And if you don't, take this from me, There will be no Washington, D. C. No statues soaring to your name, No songs triumphant to proclaim. You, father of your country grand, The idol of your native land, These awful things will happen if You don't give old King George a biff. I'll have no chance to lose an eye And walk around three fingers shy, And Chinese union fireworks packers Will strike if they can't sell their crackers. Come, boys; come, boys, from every- where where. (Boys rush on and encircle stage.) Oh, join me in this fervent prayer To this, our hero Washington, To give us just one day of fun! One day of wild, hilarious mirth, The greatest day for boys on earth. Great Washington, quick, make reply, Do we get our Fourth of July? (Washington, in deep distress, gazes at the floor, sighs deeply, as King George takes his arm.) KING GEORGE. You see, my friend, what they require. But, oh, it grieves my inmost soul To think that martial drums must roll. And midst the cannon's deadly roars You're headlong pitched from off these shores. these shores, And just because these horrid boys Want some excuse to make a noise. Boys cheer as Washington t KING GEORGE. I know, old friend, it does seem tough. AMERICAN BOY. It's time to fight; you've talked enough. Your name from school books be erased. No Sousa's band to play "Washington Post." And that story of the hatchet, see, Where you cut down the cherry tree, We won't believe you told you laid. We'll swear you told a fib. Ha! Ha! Yes! Unless we get the "Fourth" of July. Now, boys, you've got him animated, Leave him to me, I'll make him fight. I've got a scheme, just watch him bite, He'll get so mad, he'll fairly choke, And then off goes my kingly yoke. I'll put a tax on Lipton's tea (all groan). All Yankees now my slaves shall be, I'll grant you not the least concession, But grind you down with fierce oppression. camés (grønsh) Tammany Hall shall be demolished. Crambate Hall shall be demolished. And turkey, too, as I'm a sinner. Shall never grace. Thanksgiving, din ner (groans). Pumpkin ple, and, I repeat it. THE APPEAL. No one in America shall eat it. Boys shall not whittle, girls shall not hum. No baby's allowed to chew its thumb. (Groans.) And tho' the nation's blood may boll, I'll smash the trusts and Standard Oil. No American girl shall wed a lord; All tramps must wash and pay their board. (Loud cries of "Shame!" from the boys.) She sholls the "Shame!" from the boys. I'll abolish, though my great throne quakes quakes, Popcorn, candy and buckwheat cakes. And to cap it all, you wretched creat- tures; I'll abolish Jersey's fierce mos'keeters. WASHINGTON (fighting mad). You sha'n't! Then be prepared for Bunker Hill. Pumpkin pie, that you can stop, Pork and beans from menus drop, Buckwheat cakes and biscuits, they Can be abolished right away. Turkeys, cranb'ries, you can banish. Thumbs from babies' mouths can vanish. But I'll spoil all your kingly features. If you monkey with New Jersey's 'skeeters. 'skeeters. Those noble birds of freedom they, Unchained upon baldheads must play, For if you stopped their funny capers, There'd be no jokes in Sunday papers. They're our greatest, grandest institution, The bulwark of our Constitution. To banish beans, great king, 's all right, But touch the 'skeeters and I fight, (Boys cheer lustily as Washington takes off his coat for action.) KING GEORGE. Thank heaven, I've made him mad at last! WASHINGTON. To nall "Old Glory" to the mast And know ye all that now I sever Old England from the "new" forever. KING GEORGE (in fighting attire). Quit parlaying and come to blows. (Boys cheer as Washington taps King George on the nose). WASHINGTON. There's one jiu jitsu on the nose! KING GEORGE. My cause is lost, I'm licked, I'm done! aps King George on the nose WASHINGTON. America's free; hurrah, I've won! (Goddess of Liberty, from Liberty Island, enters center.) GODDESS OF LIBERTY. Immortal George, forever glorious, I crown you in your hour victorious; 'Twas not for liberty you fought, And splendid deeds of valor wrought; But for a nobler purpose you Have fought and bled— For joyous mirth; their cry you heeded! You've been a boy and took compassion On them and brought the "Fourth" in fashion. KING GEORGE. In my steamer trunk I'll put my crown. And hustle back to London town; Farewell to all, so glad you're 'appy, I'm going 'ome to be a chapple. I'll send a wireless from Southampton, And tell the Times how I've been tramped on. WASHINGTON. (Shakes King George's hand.) Ta! Ta! George, so sorry to lose you. BOYS. We wanted the "Fourth." WASHINGTON-KING GEORGE. We couldn't refuse you. WASHINGTON. Proclaim this fact from tower and steeple. I only fought to please young people; King George's head I had to cracket, Just so the "kids" could raise a racket: And incidentally, know all creatures, I fought to save the Jersey 'skeeters; So, know ye all, South, East, West, North, Hurrah! Hurroo! Just how you got the glorious "Fourth." You've got these facts all in your noodles? ALL. We have! GODDESS OF LIBERTY. Then let's sing "Yankee Doodle, Doodles." (All sing "Yankee Doodle' as Liberty takes Washington's hand. King George, with trunk, exits left. Cheers and curtain.) InkaGeorge, so sorry to lose you. Former Governor of Kansas Falls an Easy Prey to a Sharper. John P. St. John, former governor of Kansas, won the brand of the "easy mark" when he "fell" for the game of a confidence man on the Rock Island train between Wichita and Topeka. As a result he is $40 poorer in really perfectly good money, and much richer in actual experience. Mr. St. John was seated in the chair car watching the landscape when a much perturbed and hatless man entered. The hatless man dropped into a seat beside the governor. Gov. St. John rose to the bait just as if he had never braved the dangers of such great cities as Topeka and Wichita. "I can let you have two twenties," he said. The offer was accepted. Mr. St. John produced the two twenties and the stranger handed over a roll. Seeing that he was dealing with a stranger, Mr. St. John carefully counted the contents of the roll. He found that it contained seven $1 bills and one $5 bill. "You have a mistake," he said. "There is not enough money here." The stranger, who in the meantime had placed the two twenties in an envelope and sealed it, was all apologies. "That's a joke on my wife," he explained. "She gave me that roll and told me that there was $40 in it. Here, you just hold this envelope while I go back and get the rest of the money." The governor put the envelope in his pocket and resumed his study of the landscape. Finally he bethought him that the stranger had never come back. Then Mr. St. John opened the envelope. It contained only two pieces of tissue paper. "Bill had charge of the animal tent," said Mr. Ringling, "and among his pets was a leopard. This leopard gave Bill more trouble than all the rest of the menagerie put together. "One day when I had left the show on some advance business: a telegram was handed to me. It was from Bill and read; The leopard has escaped. What shall I do? "That was just like Bill. He didn't want to make a mistake. "I immediately wired back to Bill: 'Shoot him on the spot.' Two hours later I received another telegram from conscientious, careful Bill: 'Which spot?' "Thank you, Uncle, but I've got beyond those things as a evhicle for patriotic emotions." "You have! May I ask what the proper vehicle is now?" "Well, a twenty-horse-power run about might do." Be Sure You Are Right. EAGLE'S VOICE IS STILL HEARD Bird of Freedom Screams as of Old, Just as John Adams Said. On July 3, 1776, the day before the Declaration of Independence was adopted by the constitutional congress, but the day after the decision to adopt it had been reached in committee of the whole, John Adams, leader of the Massachusetts delegation and the one man of all who had labored most assiduously for complete separation from Great Britain, wrote from Philadelphia to his wife: "The second day of July, 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the day of deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, bells, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward evermore. "You will think me transported with enthusiasm, but I am not. I am well aware of the toil and blood and treas- eloquence; the proslaic excursion consumes the time once devoted to the grand parade, and the reckless chafeur and careless street car motorman usurp the place once proudly held by the grand marshal. So much has New York retrograded in patriotism the while she has been advancing in material progress. But she is not alone. The sad story is told in every large city in the country. Let a town begin to number its inhabitants by hundreds of thousands, and it soon loses that community of spirit necessary to concert of action by its citizens. In the average American city today it takes more than the hallowed memories of the Fourth to produce this concert of action. Not so in the village and country towns. There the spirit of '76 still lives and finds annual expression. There the leading citizens do not think it beneath their dignity to celebrate in the good old fashioned way. In most of these places bands play, cannon boom and the "pomp and parade" of Adams' vision arouse the sheer M. M. soon it is over. It reaches Court House square and there disbands. In the stand draped in red, white and blue sit the elder statesmen of the town. Massed about are the wives and sweethearts, decked out in their summer finery. And Then the Band Played. A tall man in the center of the stand arises and calls for order. He is the president of the day, and most likely the president of the village as well, that it will cost us to maintain this declaration and support and defend these states. Yet through all the gloom I can see the rays of ravishing light and glory. I can see that the end is worth more than all the means, and that postity will triumph in that day's transaction, even though we should rue to it, which I trust in God we shall not. While postity has chosen to celebrate the Fourth instead of the second of July, the fact remains that this remarkable prophecy, penned 131 years ago, has been abundantly fulfilled by a nation whose greatest anniversary festival has always been and still is the day of independence. But if John Adams could revisit his native land today he would speak in vain in the large cities for the "pomp and parade," the "shows, games, sports, bells, bonfires and illuminations" which his prophetic vision pictured among the perennial features of the nation's birthday. "Pomp and Parade" Lacking. Time was, and not so many years ago, when he would have found Father Knickerbocker on the job every Fourth, but nowadays the "pomp and parade" are lacking, and the celebration is left to the small boy with his firecrackers and blank cartridges. Gone are the days of the old-fash- loned celebration; gone the resonant lunged orator, who was wont to "make the eagle scream;" gone the piping voiced political neophyte, who read the Declaration to admiring throngs; gone the glittering procession, the early morning salvo of cannon, the night spectacle of fireworks on a large scale. The holiday alone is left. The strident voice of the baseball ampire shakes the air once rent with patriotic Which One Owns This Tree? For sixty years and more a tree has stood on the dividing line between two properties in Germantown, Pa. It is a big tree now, and the base of the trunk extends twenty-two inches on land owned by R. G. Beale and fourteen inches on the property of Charles Spoer. The latter, making improvements, arranged to have the tree cut down, but Mr. Beale has obtained a preliminary injunction, and the case will be thrashed out in court. THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans. 5-It is not controlled by any ring or clique. 6-It asks no support but the people's. eloquence; the prossic excursion consumes the time once devoted to the grand parade, and the reckless chafeur and careless street car motorman usurp the place once proudly held by the grand marshal. So much has New York retrograded in patriotism the while she has been advancing in material progress. But she is not alone. The sad story is told in every large city in the country. Let a town begin to number its inhabitants by hundreds of thousands, and it soon loses that community of spirit necessary to concert of action by its citizens. In the average American city today it takes more than the hallowed memories of the Fourth to produce this concert of action. Not so in the village and country towns. There the spirit of '76 still lives and finds annual expression. There the leading citizens do not think it beneath their dignity to celebrate in the good old fashioned way. In most of these places hands play, cannon boom and the "pomp and parade" of Adams' vision arouse the cheers and enthusiasm of hundreds of thousands, in whom no city life has had a chance to dull the wholesome American appetite for a "glorious Fourth". And how they do celebrate! If one could only have taken a peep today into the villages and little cities of the land he could verify the prophecy of John Adams in every word. Even the suggestion of what went on there thrills the heart of the business man of the metropolis and takes him back in memory to his boyhood days in his native town. For days the committee had been at work erecting triumphal arches and seeing that every home and store flew the Stars and Stripes. The local artillery company had placed its guns on the hill, and as dawn broke sleepy heads were aroused by the booming out of the national salute. With the last gun every boy and girl and youth were out of doors, tasting the delights of burning gunpowder in firecrackers and toy cannon. By break.last time the sidewalks were carpeted with red shells of crackers, and the odor of burning punk contended with the smell of powder for a monopoly of the air. Toy pistols cracked, toy cannons thundered, "nigger chasers" sizzled and torpedoes made elderly men jump and urchins howl with glee. And just as this joy begins to pall, the tread of martial feet and the rub-a-dub-dub of the drum corps betokened the beginning of the parade. Ah, it is fine! My "paw" is the grand marshal and yours is the chief aide. Resplendent in red, white and blue sashes, they carolace through the streets, their horses dancing at the explosions, and issue martial commands through real speaking trumpets. The line is formed at last, and away goes the procession, the village band at its head, every member bursting with music and patriotism. All too He calls upon the parson, who makes the opening prayer, and then the band plays "Hail Columbia." Next the immortal Declaration is read. Young Mr. Smith, who hopes to be nominated for the legislature in the fall, has been selected for the honor. In uncomfortable looking frock coat, tightly buttoned, and with a mien serene and earnest, he advances to the reading desk and tenderly and reverently lays thereon the book, containing the Declaration. While the audience is applauding he pours out carefully and drinks ostentatiously a glass of water. Then, clearing his throat and loosening his collar band, he reels in of high, pleruring treble the rounded periods of Jefferson, beginning, "When in the course of human events," etc. The small boys do not understand, but they reverence it. They wish several times either that Jefferson had written a shorter declaration or that the perspiring Mr. Smith would lower his voice, but the end comes at last Little Mermaid—I have read of the origin of the papa shad, but can't find how the mamma shad was created. Mamma Mermaid—She was fashioned from a rib of the papa shad. Little Mermaid—Gee Whiz! I'll bet he never missed it. A woman's idea of a brave man is one who isn't afraid to go into a dark closet in which there may be a mouse. and everybody lifts up his or her voice to help out the band in "The Star Spangled Banner." When that has been sung clear through to the "hireling and slave" and "foul footsteps' pollution"—there is no expurgation of the national hymn in the public schools of this town—everybody is as hot and uncomfortable as are the musicians. They are in a condition to welcome any deliverance, and they get it. One of the terms attached to a farmer's wagon breaks its hitching strap and runs away. Women scream, men and boys rush to the scene. The farmer's daughter is alone in the wagon. But the ardent swain is not far away. He chases the runaway, leaps into the wagon over the tailboard and drives his inamorata back safe to the cheering throng. Thenceforward he is the hero of the day, the envy even of Mr. Smith. "Efforts of His Life." The president of the day scowls, The runaway was not on his official program, and he cannot recognize it. He pounds for order, and when he can make himself heard introduces "our talented young congressman, the orator of the day, who will now address you." Spick and span in a Washington suit of clothes and with a smooth-shaven face in marked contrast to the bearded visages about him, the political idol steps forth for the "effort of his life." Women momentarily forget the farmer hero in the burst of applause which greets the young Demosthenes. Wiping the perspiration from his brow, the orator begins. "In these degenerate days of money grubbing and the ignoble chase of the almighty dollar, it is well for us to get together once a year, to drop our usual avocations and do honor to the founders of our nation, who have left us the priceless heritage of liberty." "And union, one and inseparable, now and forever, hooay!" cries an enthusiast in the crowd. The orator pauses and smiles condescendingly, the crowd cheers and the enthusiast feels that he has made a hit. Then the speaker takes up his theme again, unfolds the starry banner till his ears can see it stretching over the whole vault of heaven, discloses the proud bird of freedom soaring above the great nation in the world and winds up with the prediction that "a government of the people, by the people and for the people shall not perish from the earth." Perspiring but Satisfied. Amid tremendous cheering heists down, perspiring, but satisfied, while graybeards extend hands in congratulation, and women storm the stand to get an introduction to the "lion of the hour." The band plays "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean," and the crowd melts away. Then comes the noonday dinner and then the afternoon baseball game. The home nine wallops the team from the next county and everybody is in the best of humor. Supper over, comes the crowning feast of the day—the firewoks. Court House square is again jammed with humanity. Dusk comes on lagging wings and a few venturesome spirits send up hot air balloons. Then a Roman candle is tried. It is pronounced dark enough, and the word is given to open the "exhibition of pyrotechnics." For two ecstatic hours the feast unfolds. Rockets roar and pierce the dark vault of the sky, bursting in fiery glory far away; mines sport their golden showers; red fire ever and anon lights up the scene; volcanoes hurl upward lava of real fire; Roman candles send balls of flame dancing through the air, and pinwheels as big as barrel ends scatter sparks far and wide. The band plays a few tunes, and the delightful day closes with the greatest bit of fireworks ever made—the set piece showing the portrait of the president of the United States in living fire. That is a Fourth of July such as John Adams foresaw in his prophecy of July 3, 1776, and such as he saw realized on many a Fourth before he died. But if once sought nowadays for such, he must go, not to the great cities, but "far from the madding crowd" in the country villages, where the crystal spring of patriotism still bubbles pure and undefiled. "Doctor," said the shrewd looking man, "how many feet of gas does it take to kill a person?" "That's rather a queer question," replied the doctor. "Why do you wish to know?" "Well, you see, one of the guests at my hotel used enough of it to kill himself, and I want to send in a proper bill to his executors." Do everything reason tells you to do—unless conscience vetoes it. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? THE APPEAL, A NATIONAL AFRO-AMERICAN NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY DAMS BROS.

Wm. H. Taff's speech accepting Republication nomination for Presidency. SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1909. SOUTH REAPING WHAT IT HAS SOWN. The South is clamorous for more labor, having succeeded by a ruinous policy in driving away much of that she had as well as having destroyed all hopes of accessions from abroad. The case is well stated by Raymond, the well-known correspondent, as follows: "The southern people want labor more than anything else in the world. They need a large addition to the labor supply furnished by Negroes, and unless they secure it from alien immigrants they cannot possibly hope to develop their great natural resources as they are capable of being developed. "Few, if any, of the southern legislatures took the warning in good faith. They continued to present seductive claims for foreign settlement, but M. H. HON. SHELBY M. CULLOM Illinois' Senior United States Senator, and Grand Old Man. HON. WILLI AM LORIMER Illinois Junior Senator Who Took the Oath of Office June 18. they let their wicked laws remain on the statute books. Prosecutions in the federal courts failed of their purposes because of local prejudice. "It is a most significant thing that the foreigners are once more abandoning the South almost entirely, and they are doing that, of course, because of reports of officials of Italy, Austria-Hungary, Russia and other European countries, who found it necessary to advise their home governments that any of their citizens who went into the South under any conditions were liable to imprisonment fro a mere money debt or owing to a broken contract with a planter." It is a historical fact that, immediately after the adoption of the 14th Amendment, the Southern states established a state of peonage far worse than that of slavery; and, as shown by Jas. G. Blaine, Carl Schurz and other eminent statesmen, thereby rendered absolutely necessary the adoption of the 19th Amendment. The institution, in a modified form, still exists in the South, its most noted victims being white foreigners. In a word, white foreigners are so commonly the victims of outrage in this country that their home governments are giving the matter very serious attention. And, in some cases, as in that of the tobacco destroyed by the Night Riders in Kentucky, the home government is itself the sufferers, being the owner of the property. The South is reaping what it has sown. Judge Wendell Phillips Stafford, of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, seems to be what might be termed an upright judge. He does honor to the man for whom he was doubtless named. The people of Washington are to be congratulated upon having such a fair-minded man on their judicial bench. In a recent address in New York he said: "I believe in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man. Not the brotherhood of white men, but the brotherhood of all men. I believe in the Golden Rule and the Declaration of Independence and I stand by the Constitution of the United States, including the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. That is my creed and my platform. If that were the creed and platform of all men in this country, then might it be justly claimed for this country that it is "the land of the free and the home of the brave." We notice that a leading white journal expresses the opinion that Bishop Lampton is doing great harm to the Afro-Americans of Mississippi and ought to exercise his talents one thousand miles from that state. It, thereby shows its entire ignorance of the history of the man. Now the fact is that Mississippi is under great obligations to the Bishop for the wonderful work he has done in the way of relieving poverty and distress among the Afro-Americans of the state. Through his efforts, an institution is in operation which annually distributes thousands of dollars among the poor of the state—the widows and orphans. Bishop Lampton has resided in the state for a great many years, and his career has been one of unceasing well-doing; but it seems that the foolish whim of a silly girl outweighs all that among our "best friends" of Mississippi. "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: SHOULD BE NO RACE, CREED OR COLOR LINE. Prominent Jews are becoming dissatisfied with the policy of the government in classifying them as a distinct race, in the census and other official publications. They claim to be Americans as any other class of people, and so they are. Their case is the same as that of the Afro-Americans of the country, except that their status has not been legally declared by specific enactment as has been done in the case of the Afro-American Over in Pennsylvania, Cupid has invented a new dodge, which it behooves THE APPEAL to explain. The loyer who has been chased away from the parental home by a shot gun and bulldog, straightway installs a wireless telegraph, instructs his dulcinea in the use of it and the pair indulge in sweet conversation at pleasure. The shot gun-bulldog plan is obsolete. 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. Just think of it, you can't get a drink of red liquor in old Tennessee since 12 o'clock Wednesday night.

And the mayor he was old enough to have gray hair. He had a little hald spot in the middle of his pate. His brow was somewhat furrowed with grave affairs of state—Bue he had a heart as happy as when he was a boy. And the thought: Independence day aroused his youthful joy. He rubbed his hands and chuckled, and stroked his trim goatee; "We'll have a celebration that will 'take the cake,'" quoth he; "There shall be heaps of powder burned, and every bell shall ring. "And there shall be a grand parade, and all that sort of thing. "A great address, a big balloon, and fireworks galore; "It shall be such a jolly time as ne'er was known before." But while he gayly planned it a delegation came. And said they thought that it would be a very wicked shame To let the town be given up to such outrageous boys. And make sick people suffer for a lot of selfish boys. Year after year the glorious Fourth had been a time of dread. They thought that he should institute a great reform, they said. "Besides," said they, "our young folk are growing rude and wild; 'T is seldom, nowadays, one finds a well-conducted child. They don't say 'please' or 'thank you' or 'sir' or 'ma'am' at all; They seem to think politeness is only fol-de-rol. We'd better spend the money we waste in senseless noise The poor young-hearted mayor was very sad indeed. "Tis true," he said, "that sick folk have rights which all should heed. And, also, that good manners are not the rule is clear; And yet I think these worthy folk are just a bit severe. There would have been no Fourth at all, for either men or boys if our forefathers had not been the kind that made a noise." So then, outside the city, the mayor bought some land. And there the most delightful park you ever heard of planned. our firefathers had not been the king that make a noise The fair young debutante was surrounded by an admiring crowd, of officers at the colonel's ball. Mamma was standing near by, smiling complacently at her daughter's social success. The discussion was over the quarrel of the day before between two brother officers. "What was the casus-belli?" asked the fair debutante. "Maud," exclaimed mamma in a shocked voice, "how often have I told you to say stomach?" The House of the Big Logs. One of the most interesting structures at the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific exposition will be the forestry building. In making it 126 choice fir logs have been used as main columns. These pieces of fir timber are no ordinary logs. The longest, twenty-six of them, are each 54 feet long, and all the rest are 42 feet long. The average diameter at the top is 6 feet 6 inches. Each of the largest of the columns contains about 13,000 feet of lumber. The building is 312 feet long, 128 feet wide and 90 feet high. "It is so far from town," he said "we shall not mind the din; MIDDLEBANK PARK In Garb of Woe She Attended Funerals and Robbed the Shrine Originally arrested on a charge of drunkenness, a woman who says she is Annie Allen, sometimes of Camden, Gloucester and Philadelphia, was arraigned before Magistrate Gallagher in the Twentieth district police station on suspicion of being a "funeral thief" who has been much sought by the authorities, says the Philadelphia Record. When taken into custody at the Broad street station the woman carried a small hand bag, which on being searched was found to contain more than seventy pawn tickets, together with black veils and other mourning apparel, which the police say she used in attending funerals as a professional "mourner." The pawn tickets found in her possession bore the names of twenty-four different pawnbrokers with places of business in all sections of the city. Many complaints have been received from houses of mourning where petty robberies have been committed while the services were in progress, and the police say the woman now in custody admits that she has pure on her black veil and mourning raiment and attended funerals for the purpose of robbery. Pending further investigation of her career and to give the police time to find out the owners of some of the articles called for on the pawn tickets found in her possession, the accused was held in $500 ball for a further hearing. THE GUNPOWDER PLOT. THE USEFUL SWALLOWS. Light Cavalry of the Avian Army and the Friends of the Farmer. From the standpoint of the farmer and the orchardist perhaps no birds more useful than the swallows exist. They have been described as the light cavalry of the avian army. Specially adapted for flight and unexcelled in aerial evolutions, they have few rivals in the art of capturing insects in midair. They eat nothing of value to man except a few predaceous wasps and bugs, and in return for their services in destroying vast numbers of noxious insects ask only for harborage and protection. It is to the fact that they capture their prey on the wing that their peculiar value to the cotton grower is due. Orioles do royal service in catching weevils on the bolls, and blackbirds, wrens, flycatchers and others contribute to the good work, but when swallows are migrating over the cotton fields they find the weevils flying in the open and wage active war against them. As many as forty-seven adult weevils have been found in the stomach of a single cliff swallow.—Bulletin of the Department of Agriculture. Chicks That Never Returned. "Yes," said the suburbanite as he wielded a hoe. "I'm fond of poultry dinners." "Then it's a wonder you don't raise chickens instead of flowers," remarked the mutual friend. "Oh, what's the use? My neighbors raise the chickens." Pat, who was noted for a quick tongue, was digging potatoes when the parish priest came by. By way of a pleasant salutation the priest said: "Good morning' to ye, Pat, and what kind of p'ratoes are ye digin'?" "Raw ones, your rivrince." "Och, you're so smart. I'll just give ye a question on the catechism. What is baptism?" "It used to be four shillin's afore ye came, but now it's twenty shillin's." Forestaffed. "Well, Mrs. Dennis, what are you going to give Pat for Christmas this year?" inquired the recipient of Mrs. Dennis' regular washday visits, one day at the beginning of the festal season. "Deed thin, ma'am, I don't know," replied Mrs. Dennis, raising herself from the washub and setting her dripping arms aklmbo. "I did be thinkin' I'd give him a pair of pants, but, Lord bless ye, ma'am, only last night didn't he come home with a pair on."

ANCIENT HINDU TEMPLE, Remalns Found in Java of Great Work of the Eighth Century. ‘The Boroboeder, unearthed by Sir Stamford Raffles when the English ruled in Java, was built by the Hin- dus in the eighth century, and is by far the finest example of their work in the island. Stanaing on a bill in the middle of the valley this imposing edifice, covering nearly ten acres, rises to a height of upward of a hundred feet above the summit of the hill. It consists of a series of stone ter- race built on top of each other in diminishing magnitude, so as to leave circumscribing galleries, ana 2rowned by a vast cupola entrance to the gal- leries is gained by four stairways, north, south, east and west, which run from the ground straight up to the big top terrace, in the middle of which stands the crowning cupola, surround: ed by numerous smaller lattice work ‘eupalos, and from which one may step aside into any of the intermediate gal- leries. The whole is built of stone, showing an immense amount of carving, and, though there is no genuine inside to thetemple, many of th egalleries are covered in, innumerable images of Buddha oceupy niches or prominent positions on the walls, and the sides of the galleries were paved with bas. reliefs, indicating the glorification of this god and other incidents in his history. When one considers that there are several miles of basreliefs alone the work expended on the pyra mids of Egypt pales into insignificance before this stupendous undertaking.

What will doubtless be an interest: ing feature to lovers of base ball dur- ing 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 pres: ent title holders, the crack Leland Giants of Chicago. The Leland Giants, under the able management of the great Rube Fos: ter are unquestionality che greatest tran of Afro-Ameriavins ever organ ved. ard the press and public every. where 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 Le land Giants has aroused much fn: terest both in the Twin Cities and the surrounding country, and_ the down town ark will doubtless be taxed to its capacity for these five big. games. Managers Refd and Williame, 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 lat est addition to their team is the Tay lor brothers, of the Birmingham club in the Southern Afro-American League. Their work since joining the Gophers has stamped them as finisa- ed artists and entitled to a high place in the firmament of base ball stars. ‘The Gophers, who left on the 14th inst. for a five weeks’ trip, is going at a merry clip, 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 Gonhers. On July 24-25 and August 1 the Gophers will meet thelr old rivals the: Keystones of Minneapolis. Games of July 24-and Ang. 1/1n St. Paul and of July 25 in Nicollet Park, Minne apolis.

It has been rumored about St. Paul that the NAGEL UNDERTAKING CO. does not desire the patronage of the Afro-Americans. Having done business with them for the last fourteen years with mutual satisfaction, I know of no good reason why there should be any change in its actions. We are in the business for the benefit of the public and we know no one by color, creed or nationality. All will alike receive the best treatment possible. The rumor is maliciously false.

Remains Found in Java of Great Work of the Eighth Century. The Borboeoed, unearthed by Sir Stamford Raffles when the English ruled in Java, was built by the Hindus in the eighth century, and is by far the finest example of their work in the island. Stanling on a hill in the middle of the valley this imposing edifice, covering nearly ten acres, rises to a height of upward of a hundred feet above the summit of the hill. It consists of a series of stone terrace built on top of each other in diminishing magnitude, so as to leave circumscribing galleries, and crowned by a vast cupola entrance to the galleries is gained by four stairways, north, south, east and west, which run from the ground straight up to the big top terrace, in the middle of which stands the crowning cupola, surrounded by numerous smaller lattice work cupalos, and from which one may step aside into any of the intermediate galleries. The whole is built of stone, showing an immense amount of carving, and, though there is no genuine inside to the temple, many of the eagleries are covered in, innumerable images of Buddha occupy niches or prominent positions on the walls, and the sides of the galeries were paved with basreliefs, indicating the glorification of this god and other incidents in his history. When one considers that there are several miles of basreliefs alone the work expended on the pyramids of Egypt pales into insignificance before this suspicious undertaking. Over 3,000,000 From Great R Over 2,000,000 From Great Britain. In the last forty years, 1868-1907, 1,769,729 persons have come to this country from England and Wales. Add the Scotch, 390,432, and 2,040,291 have come to the United States from Great Britain in forty years. This is more than have come from Ireland in the same time, twice as many as have come from Sweden, four times as many as have come from Norway, and more than have come from Poland and Russia put together.

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. Wattewood and Rube Foster constitute the greatest of Afro-American pitchers ever seen in the league. 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 firmament of base ball stars. The Gophers, who left on the 14th inst. for a five weeks' trip, is going at a merry clin, 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. On July 24-25 and August 1 the Gophers will meet their old rivals, the keystones of Minneapolis. Games of July 24 and Aug. 1 in St. Paul and of July 25 in Nicollet Park, Minneapolis.
