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 correspondents are able and energetic. TWO MEN RUN TOWN TWO MEN RUN TOWN Take Charge of Every Enterprise in Dexter, la. Dictate Prices, Do All the Hiring and Firing and Are Heads of Many Different Corporations—A Unique Departure. Des Moines, Ia.—One man, W. J. Pilkington of this city, has assumed the huge project of taking full charge of the business of a whole town. Every enterprise in Dexter, Ia., is under his direction, is being run according to his ideas and the systems he has installed, and he is entirely responsible for success or failure. The task Mr. Pilkington has assumed is perhaps without a parallel in the business history of this country, and is an idea so radical that if it succeeds its adoption is certain in other communities. Mr. Pilkington starts out with the idea that the application of city methods is what is needed to stimulate the business of a country town. He is the editor of the Merchants' Trade Journal and his headquarters are at Des Moines. For seven months he will be the power back of the throne who will dictate every business move that is made in Dexter, and if at the end of that time progress has not been shown it will be an end of the experiment. But if there is a big gain W. J. Pilkington. It will be up to the town to go ahead on the same lines. In Dexter, Mr. Pilkington is represented by Guy Q. Pogue, and the two men together control all the banks and business houses. They spend the money, formulate policies, superintend the buying, authorize retrenchment in some departments, and expansion in others, place the advertising, regulate the employment of help, fix salaries and in general show what ought to be done to boost the town. Mr. Pilkington has been in command for nearly two months, and the early stages of the experiment indicate possibility of big returns for the courageous act on the part of Dexter's commercial leaders in being willing to accept a plan so unusual. In the five months yet to intervene before the contract is finished, Mr. Pilkington hopes to increase the sales of the various enterprises so that the profit will be doubled. This involves business men, representing all the stores in the town, and two banks, agreed to work together business under the direct supervision of Pilkington and to abide by his decision and his judgment in business matters They are: F. G. Downey, general merchandise. C. A. Cannon, jeweler and optician. C. H. Hunter, furniture and funeral supplies. A. G. Bryan, novelty and racket店. A. E. Sible, druggist. Dexter Town, people. State Bank of Dexter. Owing to his inability to leave his business in Des Moines, Mr. Pilkington has placed Guy Q. Pogue in charge of the stores. Immediately after taking charge the same business methods were introduced in every store and an invoice of stock and open book accounts were turned over to Pogue with a statement of the receipts, expenditures and profits for the same seven months last year. Sail ships, and where they were not already in use they were furnished free of charge. Every business conducted just as before, except that Pilkington and Pogue dictate the policies and the buying. Besides authorizing the superintendent places the advertising, writes the ads, and decides whether it shall be circular, letter or newspaper publicity. Although the city government was not turned over to Mr. Pilkington, he must dictate what it shall do, as many of the councilmen are merchants and are entitled in favor of the movement to book Dexter and increase the business of the town. Since June 1 the streets have been kept clean and in good condition, several public improvements have been started and people have awakened to the need of civic pride. The experiment is being watched by manufacturers, jobbers, merchants and travelers men throughout the United States, and as a result Dexter is securing an abundance of free advertising. USE FOR OLD HORSE CAR. Two Dozen Form Summer Camp Home in Pretty Valley for Working Girls of New York. New York.—As of pennies and pins, the final disposition of old street cars is a mystery. About two dozen Avenue A cars silently stole away from New York a couple of years ago. Up the Hudson valley they journeyed on flat cars until they landed at Mountainville, a little hamlet in Orange county, noted, especially for its summer boarders. After a still overland trip of a mile on ours they came to rest on the banks of a little stream that hurries through the valley. Dinner in the Horse Car. Lined up side by side, like tents in a soldiers' encampment, the cars now form a camp which is maintained by the Ethical culture society of New York as a summer retreat for its working girl members. From May to October these girls are privileged to enjoy all the advantages of the camp for $3.50 a week. The matron in charge attends to the cooking and superintends the daily life of the girls. A few girls working their way through school and desiring work for the summer are chosen to help the matron attend to cleaning. The most substantial cars stall in the form of themselves and the sleeping arrangement. Two cots to a room is the average, but if a third is desired it is added, although this makes the place pretty crowded. The cars are divested of wheels and rest on a firm foundation. Both doors can be kept open if necessary, as well as the windows, thus really affording the much fresh air as the much slept out of doors. At a distance another group comprises the kitchen, dining room, pantry and storehouse. The kitchen is as neat and convenient as those on dining cars. A street car is very conveniently transformed into a dining room by leaving the seats intact and running a long table up through the middle. Close at hand under the trees stands the ice chest and nearby a cement sink with drain leading to the below the camp. Behind the cars are a croquet ground and tennis court. Throughout the clump of woods that adjoins the camp hammocks are swung, where the tired, footsore shopgirl may rest in quietness. Not the least of the charms of this unique camp is the creek that flows by its very doors. The clear, sparkling water is itself an invitation for a plunge and the girls are not slow to avail themselves of the privilege. The water is not deep, only here and there of sufficient depth for a swim, but wading is a delight that never grows old. HEAD OF CHICAGO SCHOOLS Mrs. Ella F. Young Appointed Superintendent—Achieves Career as Author and Educator. Chicago.—Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, the new superintendent of schools of Mrs. Ella Flagg Young. this city is a Chicago product. She was born in Buffalo, N. Y., January 15, 1845. But she was graduated from the Chicago high schools, the Chicago Normal school and obtained the degree of Ph. D. from the University of Chicago. In 1888 she married William Young. She began teaching in 1868. From 1887 to 1889 she was a district superintendent of schools. For several years she was professor of education at the University of Chicago. She has been one of the popular educators of the schools of City life, the women principals of the Chicago. For several years had a club named after her. The activity of this club in pushing her candidacy was largely responsible for her success at the recent election. Mrs. Young is the author of several books on pedagogical subjects. Among them are "Isolation in the School," "Ethics in the School," "Some Types of Modern Educational Theory," and "The Education of Educational Method." She is also an author of "Literature in the Elementary School" and several other books. In addition to her work in the school Mrs. Young is an active member of the National Educational association. THE APPEAL. BIG BELL OF PARIS "La Savoyarde" Soon to Hang in the Sacred Heart. On Lofty Church, Topping High Montmartre, Chime Will Ring to Many Milies—Church and Statue a Warning to Heretics. Paris—Within a short time "La Savoyarde," the second largest bell in Europe outside the two great bells of Moscow, will be moved from its temporary shed and hoisted to its permanent home in the dome of the Church of the Sacred Heart. The bell is ten feet high and weighs, without the tongue, 19 tons. The latter is so big that it requires 16 men to move it for striking. The first time the bell was used it cracked, and it has been rung only a few times since. Once it has been placed in the dome its sound will carry to the church of the precincts of Paris and to many polls in the country. "La Savoyarde" represents the savings of the good Catholics in Savoy, who gave it to the church. It was cast at Annecy, and, among bells in Europe, is exceeded only by the great bell of Munich and those in Moscow. Sacred Heart is one of two lofty structures, both of which have been erected in the third republic and which dominate Paris. The other is the Eifel tower, which, however, probably will be torn down in a few years. The church is massive and grandose and of a solidity which seems intended for eternity. It stands on the hill of Montmartre, the very highest point in all Paris, visible for many miles in every direction. Except for show purposes the location is a poor one. A funicular railway Church of Sacred Heart and Funicular Railway Leading Up to it. takes visitors up and some of the worshipers up the heights from the streets below. The building is in the Romanesque-Byzantine style, from designs by Abadie, and the dome is 260 feet high. Work was begun in 1875 and the church has been used for services since 1891. The progress of building has been slow, for extensive substructure, and required in the ancient quarries from which the gypsum called plaster of paris was formerly obtained. Already $6,000,000 has been expended on the edifice and much has yet to be raised by subscription. The interior is colorless and almost bare, its decoration has scarcely begun. Behind the high altar is a huge kneeling statue of Monsig, Gulbert, archbishop of Paris, offering a model of the great church which arose under his auspices of the Virgin in the Lady chapel appointed to own request, instead of in his cathedral church, Notre Dame, he is buried. As if a perpetual warning to heretics, a statue of the Chevalier de la Barre has been erected immediately in front of the main entrance. This fortunate man was burned at the stake in 1768, at the age of 19, for refusing to salute a clerical procession. Though the site of the church is regarded as unpractical, there was a purpose in its selection, which illustrates a dominant, long-characteristic. When the city of extreme partisan politics in France has been controlled of the government it has gone to lengths in exulting over its triumph. Refusal to offer measures of conciliation is one of the causes of the constant unrest in France. When the present republic was, for a time, in the hands of reactionaries, and the government was in sympathy with the church, the erection of Sacred Heart the present republic began. It is intended as a perpetual reminder to the people that, for a while, the clerical spirit was dominant in the third public and as a threat that if it again gains the ascendency it will make its power felt. And it was with the same purpose in view that a bell which could be heard for many miles was ordered. Sacred Heart seems destined to dominate Paris so long as Paris exists. The people who always live in houses, and sleep on beds, and walk on pavements, and buy their food from butchers and bakers and grocers are not the most blessed inhabitant of a tidal and sacred earth. The circumstances of existence are too mathematical and secure for perfect contentment. They live on or third hand. They are boarders in the world. Everything is done for them by somebody else—Henry van Dyke. MONARCH AND HEIR AT WAR. Prince Albert, Belgium's Crown Prince, is Leopold's Dearest Political Enemy. London.—No band played, no royal salute was fired, no kingly message was sent when Albert of Belgium, heir presumptive to the Belgian throne, started last spring on his long voyage through the Congo. The band will play loudly when he returns, but there will be discord in his sound. King Leopold allowed his nephew to start without a friendly message for the most sufficient of reasons. He had no friendly message to send him. Prince Albert of Belgium. The king knows that this journey through the Congo bodies no good to him. His consent to it was asked only as a matter of form. Prince Albert, rich by inheritance from his father, endowed with a revenue by the Belgian parliament, owes little to, and knows he will get nothing from the king. He returns from the Conde when he offers off all pretence of submitting to beheaded by a policy of his own, and, inevitably, will find himself at the head of a party hostile to the king. There may be no open scandal. The prince, surrounded by the atmosphere of the German courts, will break no rule of etiquette. In public he will be deferential to his sovereign. King Leopold, most acute of men, will be, in public, as loving to his nephew as without second. But war there will be, with or without second. Prince Albert, when holding aloft from fear he ready has done and said enough to what his policy is. It is a policy opposite in all things to that of King Leopold. PRESIDENT REYES STEPS OUT Chief Executive of Colombian Republic Resigns Office—Is Now in Europe. Washington.—According to advices received here, President Rafael Reyes of the Republic of Colombia, has resigned his office. It is said he has tired of the office. He is now in Europe. Gen. Reyes succeeded Senor Marroquin as president of Colombia by elec- Gen. Rafael Reyes. tion in January, 1905. Although formerly identified with the conservative or clerical party, Gen. Reyes adopted some of the principles of the liberals, which aroused the bitter enmity of the conservatives. His most radical departures from the policies of his predecessors were the separation of church and state and the establishment of capital punishment for treason, which previously had been lightly dealt with. Before becoming president Gen. Reyes had spent many years in the military and of political branches of his country, one of his posts having been minister to France. He is a man of wealth, with large estates in the province of Cauca. Gen. Reyes rendered distinguished service for his government in the rebellions of 1855 and 1895. Gen. Reyes quietly left Bogota some time ago for Santa Marta, on the Atlantic seaboard, where he boarded a staircase for Europe. At that time it was reported that the general had abandoned office, and it was openly asserted that his voluntary resignation involuntary coup was the only possible solution of Colombia's political troubles. A Living illusion. "Very few of us realize the terrible things that may result from a word hastily spoken," said the benevolent woman. "Well, I realize it," answered the young man who sat by her on the train. "I'm a baseball umpire." WOMAN'S HIGH POST Is Best Paid Employee of Her Sex on Rolls of Uncle Sam—Daughter of Choctaw Chief Raises Chickens. Washington—During the first days of the big upheaval in the department of the Interior Secretary Ballinger sent out orders to practically every department under his control that more work and better work should be done in the future. In issuing his orders the secretary of the Interior posted the women employees of his department, and Miss Estelle Reel, superintendent of Indian schools, was notified that she must spend more time in the field. The mention of Miss Reel's name is the secretary of the interior brings to mind the fact that she is the highest paid woman in the government service, drawing a salary of $3,000 a year. She was appointed to the government position in 1888 and is an authority on every tribe of Indians in North America. That women are equal to government positions of extraordinary importance has been proved in the case of Miss Reel. Although she is a native of Illinois, Miss Reel has spent the greater part of her life in Wyoming. She served as district, county and state superintendent of schools in Cheyenne, Wyoe, but before she obtained the last position she campaigned overcome enormous obstacles. The politicians out in that part of the country were not anxious to see a woman in the state superintendency and every Miss Estelle Reel Miss Estelle Reel. obstacle was placed in the way of her election. Finally it was pointed out that the law required the state superintendent to auction certain tracts of government lands to prospective lessees, and that this could not be done by a woman. Miss Reel said that was a small matter and that she was equal to it. She was elected to the office finally and later proved her ability as an auctioneer by successfully carrying out this part of the state superintendent's duty. Miss Reel speaks none of the languages of the Indians over whom she has control, but has been signally successful in her administration. She has 279 schools, aggregating an attendance of 25,534 pupils. In addition to these students there are 2,243 employees, 572 of whom are Indians, under management. This branch of its service costs the government more than $3,000,000 a year, and Miss Reel is the administrator of the appropriation. She is an experienced horsewoman, and in the course of the year is compelled to ride hundreds of miles on horseback and in stage coach to theulous reservations, many of them being prepared for the railroad and only accessible in this way. Miss Reel is a skilled politician, and has participated actively in several presidential campaigns. She is a fine speaker, and has not only appeared many times on the stump, but has cast her vote at the polls out in Wyoming, where women have that privilege. There is a fair field at Washington for women to assert their ability and independence in the world of achievement, and Miss Ree's case is by no means the only one where a woman can win the recognition. Her work among the Indians is reflected in the accomplishments of clever Indian girl who is not in the employ of the Indian government, but who lives in Washington, hundreds of miles away from her people's home out on the plains. Sophia Pritchicky is the daughter of a Chootaw chief and is a princess of her tribe, but she lives here in a modest little home at 1104 Sixth street, Northwest, the back yard of which has been converted into a poultry "farm" for three hundred prize winning single-seater Leghorn hens which have won blue ribbons. Madison Square garden, Boston, Baltimore, Hagerstown and practically every other city in the east where 'argt poultry exhibits are held. "That laundress was prophetic," sobbed the chauffeur's fair guest as she stood, with damaged thery and a camera mounted on a police station. "How so?" asked the unpathetic matron, who was trying to soothe her till the ambulance came. "She pressed this linen suit I was wearing on this joy ride with a sad iron."

TO WED SON OF PRETENDER Engagement of Miss Anita Stewart to Dom Miguel of Braganza is Announced. New York.—The announcement of the engagement of Dom Miguel of Braganza, the oldest son of the pretender to the crown of Portugal, and Miss Anita Stewart is of great interest to all those concerned with the romance of history and the world may yet see an American queen reigning as queen-corsort over one of the oldest kingdoms of Europe, despite the reported renunciation of rights by the pretender. The Miguelist party has on its Miss Anita Stewart. side many of the ancient and wealthy sides of Portugal, and should anything happen to the youthful King, or should he die a natural death without children, Dom Miguel might easily be called to the throne, as was the father of the present king of Spain. The who is a fine-looking young man, was 1878 and was educated in Austria. He speaks several languages perfectly, and has been very often seen in London society. It was doubtless that he that met pretty Miss Anita Stewart, who is a daughter by a first marriage of Mrs. James Henry Smith. The latter has been the tenant of the duchess of Somerset, at whose beautiful house in Grosvenor square doed a good deal of entertaining fascinating, and last year was seen a great deal in town under the chaperone of her aunt, Mrs. Anthony Drexel. HOUSE USED BY GEN.SHERMAN Historic Structure in Georgia Exactly Same today as When Occupied by Civil War Officer. Acworth, Ga.—Herewith is a cut of the house which Gen. Sherman used as his private post office, sleeping quarters and general occupants during his two weeks' camp in Acworth during the Civil war. Every plank in the house now was there during his occupancy, the building remaining now exactly as then. This old historic house still bears the names of a number of federal soldiers, Sherman's Headquarters at Acworth which were no doubt cut in the planks with a bayonet. One of the names plainly read is "J. A. Yoder." Mrs. Mary Smithson and daughter, Miss Calle Smithson, owned and occupied the house throughout the war, both residing there to this day. Their reminiscences of the Sherman's invasion of their home are interesting in the extreme. Needed Inventions. A man in the metropolis has invented a device which enables one to blow out the gas without fear of the consequences. Why cannot this beneficent genius turn his attention to other needed inventions? Where is the machine that will make banana peels on the sidewalk a delight to pedestrains? Isn't there some device that will make the humorist who rocks the boat and pulls chairs from under folks a public benefactor? Can't we have an antidote for the revolver which no one supposed was loaded?—Success Magazine. Like Attracting Like. "There is one kind of affinity I certainly do like." "What is that?" "A poker hand that shovels in the cash." THE FOOD PROBLEM PROPER NUTRIMENT FIRST OF ALL CONSIDERATIONS. It Has Well Been Said That The Health and Morals of a People Depend Upon Their Sustenance —Diet for Invalids. Certainly in this age when so much thought and time is given to the feeding of live stock and to the much attention is given to the right nutrition for plants we should be able to lay down the principles which govern the diet of human beings. Mrs. Helen Richards tells us "that the health and morals of a people depend mainly upon the food they eat and homes they live in. Strong men and women cannot be raised on insufficient food; good warm, temperate, highly moral men cannot be expected from a race which eats badly cooked food, irritating to the digestive organs and unsatisfying to the appetite. Wholesome and palatable food is the first step in good morals and is conducive to ability in business, skill in trade and healthy tone in literature." If the preparation of health is such a problem for those in health so much more thought and stress must be laid upon the food we prepare for the food we have been said that one-third of all lilies that flesh is heir to are caused by abuse of the diet. The man of average weight (150 pounds) at hard labor requires more food than the man at moderate work. The climate, age and state of health affects the diet. In arranging menus, families must be considered, as "One man's meat is the man's poison." The diseases which occur after middle life are often due to the habit of eating and drinking such foods as were indulged in during early life. During illness the food plays a very important part toward the recovery. There are a few points well to remember in preparing a menu for an invalid. Appeal to the dainty tray with an appetizing bit of food tastefully arranged and garnished will call up an appetite which seemed entirely lacking. Then the sense of taste must be appealed to in order to have the food do the most good, as a tasty food is easier digested. Serve all cold food and not hot. The easy of digestion should be chosen for consideration for the disease of the patient and its nutritive value. "Food well cooked is partially digested." Jellied Mutton Broth Cold broth, jellied, is just as nourishing as the same broth hot, and is usually more tempting on a scorching August day. Make the broth from two pounds of mutton soup meat simmered slowly for five or six hours. Add water when necessary, but at the end of this time have only about a quart of broth. Season it with salt and pepper, strain and pour into cups on individual molds. When set, turn the jelly into puffy plates, with a spray of mint or parsley and look—by the side of each mold, and serve with small sandwiches of whole wheat bread and butter. Corn Gems. In this guide, green corn may be served for breakfast. Cut the kernels from six ears of boiled corn. Beat the yolks of two eggs and add to one cup of milk. Sift a cup and a half of flour with a teaspoonful of baking under and half a teaspoonful of salt into the milk and egg yolks, and heat in the egg beater. Remove the beater, write the corn with a spoon and then fold in the two whites of eggs, beaten stiff. Bake in muffin rings for 20 or 30 minutes. Cleaning Plumes. A woman who has success in cleaning ostrich and other feathers, puts a cupful of Indian meal, half a cupful of flour and three level tablespoonfuls of borax into a paper bag, and with it one large or two or three, small feathers. These she shakes about until the soil disappeared from the feathers and then she shakes it free from the mixture. Fine knitted wool articles and laces are sometimes cleaned in this way. Silver Parfait. Boll one cup of sugar in one cup of water until it threads. Pour it onto the stiffly beaten whites of three eggs. Beat again. When cool add one pint of whipped cream, flavor with two teaspoons of any kind of flavoring desired. Pack in ice and salt and let stand. Place the day for a company dinner I picked in a few choice strawberries, mashed in a sieve and added whole, have also added cherries whole, and the effect is very pretty. **Veal Cutlets and Peas.** Slices of cold roast veal and ham, veal stuffing, peas. Cut some thick slices of the veal into neat pieces, lay a little of the stinkin' on the surface of ham on each, sticking all together with egg. Dip each "cutlet" into egg and color with bread crumbs, and fry a golden color in deep fat. Serve with a liberal supply of peas round. **Marking Household Linen.** Simple, plain letters or ornate monograms made with flour on sheets, pillow slips and by applying fine white art braid to the stamped design instead of working with fossa. Cotton braids resembling southeast may be stitched on the machine. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? DAMS BROS. EDITORS AND PUBLISHERS 49 E. 4th St., St. Paul, Minn. ST.

TAFT The Republican platform, adopted at Chicago, explicitly demanded out regard to race or color, and out regard to law and order enforcement, and without observation, in letter and spirit of justice, required the five-fifth amendments to the Constitution. It is needless to state that the nation on that plank in the framework to all believe that the fair and impartial enforcement of the law with the right American spirit of justice, accepting Republican nomination for Presidency. SATURDAY, AUGUST 28, 1999. Now, what do you think of this? Because some Afro-Americans, WITH MONEY ENOUGH TO DO SO, see fit to select Hyde Park, a suburb of Chicago, as a suitable place to purchase residences, some of the Caucasian residents are making most strenuous objections. Mr. Francis A. Harper, president of the Hyde Park Club, claims that the agitation over the subject will result in the organization of a new political party having for its object the repeal of the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution of the United States. It is something beyond our comprehension, this object fear and terror that white people have of black ones all over this country, recently. Its like the fear that an elephant has for a mouse, the mouse has no thought of harming the elephant, couldn't if it would, wouldn't if it could. All the little mouse is after to enjoy P. H. H. H. HON. SHELBY M. CULLOM Illinois' Senior United States Senator and Grand Old Man, Whose Beloved Wife Was Taken From Him by Death Last Week. life according to its instincts which frequently lead it to the feeding place of an elephant, but the minute the elephant sees the tiny mouse he quakes with unfeigned terror, raises his trunk high in the air and trumpets loudly. The white people need not be afraid of such Afro-Americans as seek residences in so-called "exclusive" neighborhoods, they will find their black neighbors as well behaved, as well dressed and as up-to-date in everything as themselves as a rule, and as much inclined to be let alone, more so, perhaps, than themselves. migrants they cannot possibly hope to develop their great natural resources as they are capable of being developed. "Few, if any, of the southern legis latures took the warning in good faith. They continued to present seductive claims for foreign settlement, but they let their wicked laws remain on the statute books." Prosecutions in the federal courts failed of their pun poses because of local prejudice. "It is a most significant thing that the foreigners are once more aban One of the troubles with the whites seems to be, that when they see blacks finding pleasure in the identical things that give them pleasure, they appear to be robbed of all their pleasure or satisfaction. Why it should rob one person of the pleasure he derives from eating an apple to see another also eating an apple even if he is black, we cannot conceive. "Tis said, 'Imitation is the sincerest flattery,' therefore our white brothers and sisters ought to feel flattered when we imitate them. They usually raise little objection when we imitate their vices, surely they ought not to object to our imitation of what they deem their virtues. THE BUSINESS LEAGUE. The most excellent meeting of the National Business League which held its Tenth Annual Session at Louisville, Ky., last week, bringing together as it did, over 500 delegates, representing the business industries and possibilities of the Afro-American, ought to serve as an object lesson to our white brothers and redound to the benefit of both. That a people, who were held in the abject slave that even some of those present were, a little more than forty years ago, could hold such a meeting and make such a showing, as was made there, ought to convince the most skeptical and prejudicial Caucasians that with proper treatment and fair, square opportunities the Afro-American would shortly cease to be an "undesirable citizen" even in their biased imaginations. 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 im- M. H. HON. FRANK H. HITCHCOCK Postmaster General Who Has Sounded the Watchword of Economy. Addressing the convention of the National Association of First-class Postmasters at Toledo, O₂ Postmaster General Frank H. Hitchcock made public announcement of a policy of at rict economy throughout the department, with which he requested the po stmasters to comply. migrants 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 wrong in good faith. They continued to present seductive claims for foreign settlement, but 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 for a mere money debt or owing to a broken contract with a planner." 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 15th 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. TURKS SUPERIOR TO CHRISTIANS? The general impression of the Turks is that they are a semi-barbarous race, and their country a blot upon the map of Europe. But we notice that Turkey has invited the Jews of Russia to settle in her borders and has assured them of protection. It certainly seems strange that the ancient people of God should be compelled to leave Christian Russia in order to accept the protection of Mohammedan Turkey. The Southern remedy for the evil that the "Negro won't work" is not to allow him to work when he wants to. This is proved by the Georgia strike, the object of which was to force the Afro-American from his berth as a fireman on the railroads. (Copyright, by J. B. Lippincott Co.) J. Horton was walking slowly along the footpath through the woods that led to the gypsy campment for a final look at that horse he had about decided to buy. He had tried the horse and had examined him carefully, and if it had not been a gypsy who was selling him Horton would have felt no hesitation about paying the money asked. Suddenly he stopped and looked sharply about him. He heard the sound again—the scream of a woman. He ran through the woods in the direction of the scream. "Don't, oh, don't!" the voice cried shrilly. Running into a field by the edge of the wood, he came upon a sullen German farm-hand, pulling a piece of fence rail roughly from a gypsy girl. He came to it with her strong young hands. German was dragging her with rough kerns. Seeing he could not wrest the woods from the farm hand raised his fist and struck just as Horton sprang forward. But he was too late—the girl went down, a gaudy heap of red and yellow cloth, silver chains and hangles. "Stain back!" cried Horton, coming before the girl as the farm hand lifted his fist again. "Mind yer own business," growled the German, his fury increased as he saw the good-looking young man in dainess clothes, "one of them town dudes." "Till settle this gypsy thief!" Horton said never a word, but his hands were smoothly and swiftly and the German is down to look at bristant constellation. The girl opened her eyes, wide, but did not move. She saw the German getting up slowly and going down again with ex "Did He Hurt You Much?" ceeding celerity. Then she sat up and smiled with evident enjoyment. "Now you can make yourself scarce, Dutchey," ordered Horton, and the farm hand limped away without a word. "I am sorry I did not come quicken," said Horton gently. "Did he hurt you much? and he kneeled beside her. "It's nothing, sir," she answered, showing her white teeth in a smile. "But see my hands, sir." She held up to him her slim, brown hands, and he saw that her palms were filled with splinters. "If you have a needle, perhaps I can get them out for you," he said, taking her hands gently in his own. She had no needle, but she took a breast-pin and put it on her arm, pinning her a glimpse of a prettier throat. So he set to work removing the splinters, hurting her much, but drawing no sound from her. She fixed her black eyes on him, shyly examining him from head to foot as he bent over her palms. She looked at the sunshine that gave a red glint to his carefully brushed brown hair. She noted how well-groomed he was and how broad his shoulders were, were, and were. She noted the strong hands that held hold own so firmly and yet so tenderly. But her eyes dwelt longest upon his keen, manly face. "They're all out now, I think," he said at last, and she was sorry. He wiped the tiny spots of blood away and bound her hand in his soft, white handkerchief. As they walked to the gypsy camp together he walked to her hands, and she would amuse her, while she, seldom speaking, looked at him shyly out of the corners of her dark eyes. At the camp the women gathered around Horton and demanded to tell his fortune. "I tell it for five dollar," said one old bad. "I tell it for three dollar," screeched another, "greater than the first. "No, no! I tell it for one dollar," screamed a third, trying to draw him into a tent. He shocked her with a grimace. "One of the women pushed forward, the girl urging her to ask Horton for a quarter. "I will not," she answered angrily. "You make me feel 'shamed. Go way!' She sat sully on the tongue of a wagon, listening sulkily to the torrent of abuse the slatters poured out at Horton's refusal to give them money. All the charm was gone from her face. She watched while her father once more led out the horse for a final induction, and acquitted. His face to see if her father's eloquence of the horse were affecting him, and strained her ears to hear his decision. "I'll take that horse," said Horton decisively. "I'll pay you to day and send for it." A smile of triumph flitted over the gypsy's sinister face, but Horton did not see it; he was looking at the girl seated on the wagon, for she had made a quick gesture to attract his attention. She slyly shook her head at him, but he came nearer, not understanding. "Don't buy that horse," she whispered hastily. "Cannot you see he is going blind? Watch how my father always faces him to the sun, both eyes droop alike. He halks, too. I'm telling you the truth, because—because—" The blood rushed to her dark face, and she ran into a tent. Horton coolly walked back, and turned the horse from the sun. One eyelid did not droop. He waved his hand close to the other eye, but the horse did not wink. "The deal is off," he said contemptuously, and walked away. The old man flew into a rage and cursed vilely, while the women ran after Horton with insulting epithets. He caught a glimpse of a pair of black eyes flashing at him as he passed the tent, and saw for a moment a pretty brown face. He turned to speak to the girl, but she was gone in a flash. That night the woods around the gryphon encampment rang with girlish shriek and crumpled heap of brushed flesh and crumpled clothes, gay with bangles, sobbed itself to an uneasy sleep on a pile of brush. But when daylight came only the trampled grass showed where a gypsy camp had been. John Horton stood where the tent had stood, and had his own thoughts. MORTON'S FINE DAIRY FARM. Should Act as Inspiration to All Those Desirous of Producing Good Milk. Levi P. Morton, whose 1,000-acre estate, Ellersilver, is one of the splendid show places on the banks of the Hudson, was one of the first of America's wealthy men to incorporate a dairy as a conspicuous feature of his country-place. There is no attempt to produce certified milk or to introduce any extraordinary or fancy elements in the dairy at Ellersilver. It is a herd of Guernsey cows, intelligently selected, well housed and fed and milked with due regard to cleanliness. Any one who has an honest desire to produce good milk can follow the example set here with equal success. In some respects it is more of an inspiration to the ordinary farmer and dairyman than are some of the more pretentious dairies, with their exceedingly high ideals. In buying cattle for this farm Mr. Barnes, the superintendent, has an eye constantly on the future of the herd as well as the present supply of milk to be obtained. About 150 cows constitute the herd, between 80 and 90 of which are being milked at present. More than 600 quarts of milk is shipped daily to New York. The milk sells at no fabulous price, although it brings a little more than does ordinary milk on account of its reputation. Ellerslie milk sells for $4½ cents a quart as a minimum, and at times the price reaches eight cents. Many men who eat an inexpensive quick lunch in dairy restaurants in New York may enjoy the luxury of a glass of Ellerslie milk at a moderated price. The milk is shipped direct from Mr. Morton's farm to a lunch company which makes a special attraction of a good quality of milk. Milking time begins early at Ellerslie, long before sunrise, but electric lights make the great barn as light as day. The second milking comes at 3:30 in the afternoon. Clean white garments are daily provided for the milkers, and cleanliness is insisted upon. As soon as the milk comes from the milk is taken to the dairy, which is hard to not join the barn. Here it is at one oolooed by being poured over ice treads. Part of it is then bottled by machinery and is ready for shipment. The remainder is put into cans, which have been carefully sterilized, as have the bottles. A separate room is devoted to the sterilizing process. While a large quantity of milk is sold to New York city, the Morton household and all who live upon the estate are liberally supplied with milk, as is Holiday house, a near-institution, supported by the Mortons, where convalescent children are sent from milk stores and are helped back to health by the excellent milk and other food and fresh air which they enjoy there. No butter is made at Ellersilie for the market, but butter is made for Holiday house and the Morton family. Every pot being marked with an "E," this letter might well stand for excellence, but does, in fact, stand for Ellersilie. The cows of Ellersilie herd are housed in a barn 296 feet long, and it is a splendid building for the purpose. Ventilation and light are amply provided for by numerous windows. The floor is of concrete and the best equipment for feeding the cows has been installed. Mr. Barnes believes thoroughly in outdoor pasturing for dairy cows, contrary to the opinion of many dairymen, largely because of the effect upon the calves. Not His Idea of a Duke. Not his idea of a Duke. Stories of amusing situations caused by the duke of Norfolk's negligence in dress or going the rounds of the English town. A short time ago he observed that a number of a party of excursionists had damaged some of the foliage on his estate, going up to the strangers, he began to demonstrate with them. "Ain't the duke got any keepers" exclaimed one of the men, sullenly, "that a little chap like you should interfere." The duke smilingly replied, that he happened to be the duke himself. But the tripper wouldn't believe it. "Go on!" he said, laughing heartily. "Why, the duke goes to dine at Marlborough house, and they'd never have a little man like you even in the servants' hall." One of the objectionable features of the ordinary street cars in large cities is the fact that they are provided with leather hand straps, which are liable to accumulate dirt and disease. As a substitute for these unsanitary straps, a steel hanger has recently been devised, which is covered with porcelain enamel, so that it may be kept absolutely clean. These straps are difficult to the interborough Rapid Transit Company of New York city. **Footwear of the Romans.** The Romans made use of two kinds of shoes, the soles, or sandal, which were worn at home and the foot and was worn at home and the calceus, which covered the whole foot and was always worn with the toga when the user went abroad. ```markdown ``` An unseatable Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education, provides English and High School courses, with industrial Training.

One of the most delightful of the many delightful social functions that the society folks of St. Paul have had this summer was the progressive whist party that was given by Mr. and Mrs. Frank Gordon and her mother, Mrs. Belle Davis of 602奥尔街 on Friday evening of last week. The swell grand affair was given in honor of Miss Nellie Banks of Kansas City, Mo., who used to be the teacher of Mrs. Gordon in that city There were five tables in operation with Mrs. Harry Bass having charge of the tally cards. The ladies were all handsomely groomed and each added to their general beauty, grace and divinity, made the occasion one to be long, remembrance. The hostesses were indefatigible in their efforts to entertain their guests and to say that their efforts were crowned with success will be putting it very mildly. The play lasted until about 10 o'clock when the tally cards were handed in and it was found by the tellers that Mrs. W. H. Reynolds and Mrs. J. Q. Adams had tied on their scores. To settle the tie these two ladies drew cards from a pack and Mrs. Adams won by drawing the higher card and was awarded a beautiful hand painted cake plate. Mrs. C. E. James was the winner of the booby prize a cute little white doggie with a pink ribbon around its neck almost as large as itself. After the close of the games dancing was indulged in by those who chose to take advantage of the excellent music furnished by Miss Birdie Lowe. Very dainty and delicious refreshments were served including a most delightful punch which had been partaken of ad libitum during the whole evening. A very pleasing feature of the evening's entertainment was the delightful rendition by Messrs. Fiddler and Shelton, two artists, who were performing at the Orpheum last week—of several of the new and laughable selections in their repertoire. Our own laugh maker, Mr. Charles H. Miller, also gave several of his inimitable selections, to the enjoyment of all.

The annual meeting of the State Grand Lodge of United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of the Mysterious Ten was held in Arcade Hall, Washington avenue near Thirteenth street, Minneapolis, last Tuesday. There was a full representation from all the lodges and temples in the state. Grand Master J. H. Dillingham called the meeting to order and in the absence of the assistant secretary, Miss Viola Berry was appointed. The various committees were appointed when a recess was taken for dinner. When reconvened in the afternoon the reports of officers was made. The annual reports of the Grand Secretary Geo. A. Ricks and Grand Treasurer B. R. Durant tallied to a cent and were duly received and adopted. The annual report of Grand Master J. H. Dillingham was quite concise and voluminous and covered all of his transactions. It was accompanied by all the correspondence pro and con relative to his various actions and was quite satisfactory. It was unanimously received and adopted.

Renovated, retouched and generally overhauled from front to stage, the Grand Opera House will open the regular season with the matinee tomorrow of "In Old Kentucky." This Blue-grass classic has been behind the series since years and it is as strong in public as ever. Its appeal is lasting and its fame is perennial. The story of the brave little mountain girl and her unselfish devotion to the call of duty has touched a responsive chord in the hearts of American play-goers throughout the entire land. It seems destined to continue as the most popular of a melodramas now and forever. This a particularly capable one, and a brand new scenic equipment has been prepared for this season's tour. No performance of "In Old Kentucky" would satisfy without the score of little Afro-American boys that always form an integral part of the story, and whose dancing, singing and general hilarity go far to lighten the more serious side of the play. The race scene is given with a string of Kentucky thoroughbreds and has always proved to be one of the most realistic and stirring of all race effects. Miss Mildred Johnson is this season's "Madge Brider." WASHINGTON SOCIETY GIRLS. The Next Attraction at the Star Theatre. The above well known organization, comes this season, clothed entirely in a new garb and headed by the two well known comedians, Harry Mark Stewart and Larry Smith, who are well known to patrons of burlesque for their stage droleries—as no one who has ever seen them could easily forget their quaint, peculiar performance, a well known company, which has been carefully edited are many well known people of residence on both continents. The productions "Ikey and Schmukly" and "The New Tombus" have been renovated throughout for presentation this season, a retinue of twenty chorus ladies, all said to have well trained voices. Among the many high class vaudville acts are Harry Mark Stewart, the droll Hebrew comedian; Larry Smith and Mamie Champion, comedy sketch artists, Hazelton and Davis, eccentric dancers,angers and dancers, Ruby Marion and Sawyer, and musical artists and others. The portion of the aggregation is named as one of the many special features, many new ensemble numbers are introduced. The scenic mechanical effects, costumes, etc., are also said to be one of the main factors, and everything requisite to give a finished performance is promised. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN. 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. Any one wishing our services has only to call upon us to verify this statement. NAGEL UNDERTAKING CO., William E. Nagel, Mgr. The Afro-Americans of the United States ought to know that there is a Health Hotel owned and controlled by Afro-Americans in Mt. Clemens, Mich. Here is a place for seekers after rest, quiet and health. There are six bath tubs for the mineral baths, twenty-one bed rooms, a dining room seating forty persons. The health giving waters of Mt. Clemens are known all over the world. The wells sunk on the hotel grounds to supply the guests with mineral water cost nearly $5,000. Such an enterprise should receive encouragement from those who are in need of just a place. The Girls' Culture Club meets each Thursday evening at Pilgrim Baptist Church.
