What is to Million Sch What is to Become of Our Sixteen Million School Children? BY JAMES CREELMAN COPYRIGHT BY PEARSON PUB. CO. PHYSICAL TRAINING FOR BOYS THE MUSIC BOOK FIRST AID TO THE INJURED The metropolis has, including high schools, 651,251 children enrolled in its 514 school houses, which cost $99,133,000, and has a teaching and supervising force of 16,489 persons, whose combined salaries amount to $17,581,000 a year. For weeks I went from school to school, from class room to class room, from teacher to teacher, from principal to professor, observing, questioning, comparing, analyzing the old idea of the common school with the new, particularly looking to see how theory consisted with practice and results. To start with, I had the fact that there is general complaint that the boys and girls who come from American public schools write badly, really, and are weak in grammar and arithmetic. But facts are hard things to overcome, and the more I searched for evidence with which to shame and confound modern pedagogy and its methods, the less was I disposed to condemn, until finally it became plain that I, in common with the general public, was mistaken, and that an attack upon what is known as the "new education" could not be justified. That there is some waste and much that is experimental in it cannot be denied. But the great groundwork of it seems to be sound and practical. It is claimed that the old system of teaching children in the schools was based on an ignorant theory of the human brain. The idea was that a stern, high drill in a few subjects developed mental power that could be used in all subjects. Teachers have assumed that students are a group of good faculty, such as observation, comparison, attention, logic, memory, language, and so on, and that an intensive study along the line of any mind faculty would develop that faculty as a whole and practically for all purposes. It is now held by leading educational authorities that the brain, instead of being a collection of a few general faculties, divides itself on investigation into countless speculations, and that mental power developed in one function of the brain cannot as a rule be transferred to another function. That discovery upsets the foundations on which education has been based for centuries and, together with the modern demand for technical and manual training to meet industrial problems, accounts for the sweeping changes observable in the public schools. To-day the teaching profession has grown to enormous proportions. There are in the United States alone more than 4 million teachers college professors. That is more than a third of the membership of all the professions combined. The teachers of the country outnumber the lawyers or physicians more than four to one. Pedagogy has suddenly become a conscious profession which seeks to establish itself upon a firm scientific basis. The new idea is that a broad curriculum, embracing, in addition to the three Rs, manual training, art, science and nature studies, touches all the latent possibilities, tastes and ambitions of the child; arouses, interests and develops its capacities; and so, prepares it for self-realization in its life vocation. Such investigators as Prof. Edward L. Thornike, professor of educational psychology in the Teachers college, Columbia university, declare that actual scientific tests show that the specialization of the human mind is "even greater than ordinary observation leads one to suppose." That thrillingly beautiful ceremony in which 600,000 New York school children and their 18,000 teachers begin each morning's work by stretching out their hands to the American flag and solemnly pledging allegiance to it is --- VOL. 26. NO. 10. T HE shrill morning clamor of nearly 3,000 Jewish children gathering in Public School 31, New York, had died down. All were assembled in the for the four floors of the splendid stone building. In the streets, with their shawled mothers and push-cart peddlers, were picturequeens huddles of toddlers waiting for a chance to enter the crowded place. A fair haired young teacher sitting at the piano on the top floor bent her head and struck a long, deep chord. Instantly 600 dark-eyed boys and girls are seen from their desks and a staircase from the living room. Presently the fresh young robes swung into "Who Is Sylvia?" and "Where the Bee Sucks." Against the ugly noises of the crowded, sorrid metropolis they sang the falre, tenderest ancles of Shakespeare. Then there was silence. A pale, flat-chested fish boy lifted a large silk American flag from the palace and the wall. It with toolem step and reverent face to the head of the middle sile, dipped it slowly and then raised it high with a gesture of simple pride. There was something inspiring as well as pathetic in the young eyes in which the oppressed blood of European ghettoes looked through its emancipated heirs upon that sacred symbol of equity and liberty. The room was as still as death. Every face was earnest. The young teacher struck another deep chord from the piano. At this every right hand was lifted in salute to the palace and the wall, chained outward the flag, while the boys and girls chanted: "We salute thee! We, the children of many lands, who find rest under the folds, do pledge our lives and our hearts to love and protect—their country—and the liberty of the American people forever." I have seen the American flag saluted in many lands and on many seas, but never have I witnessed a greeting that meant so much as that childish pledge in which one civilization lovingly surrendered to another. Bitter complaints against the public schools of the country spurred me to learn something of the present training of our nearly 17,000,000 school children. I went honestly to condemn; I came back to explain and praise. Nor is there a more misrepresented or misunderstood subject in America than this question of the public schools; and he is a lucky man who can make the American mothers and fathers of to-day realize what is being done to the American mothers and fathers of to-day. The business man loudly insists that the public schools are not what they are intended to be and are not what they used to be; that the interest and enthusiasm of both teachers and pupils are wasted on nature studies, paper cutting and folding, straw plaiting, art work, dancing, music, cooking, sewing, and all manner of fads and frills, while the essentials of education, the old fashioned school subjects grouped together as the "three Rs," are deliberately neglected; and that this is an outrage upon the children and a defiance to the taxayers. The prominence of the subject may be judged by the new report of the United States commissioner of education, which shows that, a year ago there were 16,820,385 pupils enrolled in the 259,115 common schools of the nation, with 475,238 teachers. The yearly expenditure on schools is $330,680,801—equal to about a third of the whole expenditures of the national government—and the value of the school properties reaches the staggering total of $843,309,410. The enrolled school children of the United States almost equal the combined populations of Holland, Sweden, Portugal and Greece. It will be seen that if the education of the children of the country is drifting into the hands of doctrinales and experimentists, and the practical elements of school training are being neglected in order that modern peagogy may exploit unscientific theories, the practical forms not only fathers and mothers, but touches the character of the nation as a whole. Hope for the future of the great republic rests upon its school children. Never has such a weight of responsibility been thrown upon the school house as to-day. New York, the second city of the world, is good field in which to investigate the angry THE APPEAL. an education of the emotions, a cultivation of the mystic elements of patriotism. Who can doubt that the daily sake to the symbol of American 18therty, equality and justice as something high and sacred stirs in the childhood of the restless, changing, profane metropolis those fine, almost unspeakable feelings to which the national flag may appeal when even the study of American history fails to arouse the imagination? But it is not wholly on psychology that the modern public school and its methods depend for justification. The old style public schools, aside from drilling spelling, arithmetic, grammar, geography and so on, the minds of children, principally by them memorizing the words of textbooks, were conducted on the theory of preparation for high schools. The truth is that not one public school pupil out of ten in the country enters a high school. The high schools were largely a preparation for college. But not more than one high school pupil out of ten completes a college course, even in New York, where collegiate education is free. It will be seen that only one out of a hundred of the entire school population, in New York, for instance, has the means, inclination and ability to pursue the academic course even at the public school. If only one child out of a hundred can take advantage of collegiate education, are the remaining 99 to be left to face the struggle for life with only the three Rs, or perhaps a smattering of Latin and the higher mathematics? Germany has risen to power and riches among the industrial nations through her technical and trade schools. In the development of mechanical invention we have forgotten that the machine is not everything. Already the labor unions have restricted the apprentice system until American jobs is put to its wits' ends to find substitutes for industrial jobs. The public school teachers of the country and those who train and direct them are apparently fully awake to the magnitude of the new task which changing industrial conditions have thrown upon them. Teachers, principals and professors alike talked to me of Germany's great success through her technical and industrial schools. This keen consciousness of the modern school problem, shown alike by slender young misses and by gray and wrinkled veterans, was one of the most significant and impressive things I encountered in the public schools. The challenge of industrial Germany is to be answered by American pedagogy. Dr. Thurston of Cornell university, has declared that in order to bring the American people up to technical and industrial equality with Germany, this country needed at present "1,100 university professors and instructors and 11,000 students studying the highest branches of technology, which should be 1,000 college professors and 15,000 technical students studying for superior positions in arts; and 20,000 students engaged in trade and manual training schools, instructing pupils, 400,000 in number, preparing to become skilled workmen." There are more than three female teachers to every one male teacher in the public schools of the United States, and yet I found in all schools the same virile thought, that, aside from writing, spelling, arithmetic, grammar, geography and the rudiments of history, the first great duty of the teaching profession in America was, by manual training and other culture outside of the three Ra, to develop the whole intelligence of children, to accustom their bodies and minds to work together, to assist them in gradually discovering what their true vocation in after life ought to be, to fit them for it, and from the kindergarten accusations of American tax- payers against the so-called frivolous and emor alizing MANUAL TRAINING IN PUBLIC SCHOOL through every grade, up to the sewing dressmaking and cooking classes for girls, and the technical drawing and carpenter classes for boys—with a simple grounding in art, science and commercial methods—to increase the economic power of the population. I have some general complaints of business men in the public schools, which were the text of the article I intended to write, simple honesty compels me to confess that the average penmanship, spelling, arithmetic and original English composition worked out before my very eyes in New York public schools, visited at random and usually without notice, seems better, much better, than the average of the public schools of 15, 20 or 25 years ago. A comparatively new idea is the "study period," in which pupils, with their text books before them, are taught how to study. The teacher explains to the class just what it is expected to get out of the books. The teacher school attached to the Training School for Teachers in Brooklyn I saw a good illustration of how modern pedagogy strives to make children think, instead of merely training them to repeat and memorize the words of the text books. A girls' class in history was asked to choose a subject for dramatization. The girls chose "The Boston Tea Party." Then they selected who should be King George, the speaker of the house of commons, the captain of the teahip, the leader of the American patriots, and so on. Presently the little ones—their ages averaged 11 or 12 years—acted out the historical incident which precipitated the American revolution. They used their own language, and not the language of the books. The object of all this was, of course, to supplement the memorizing of books by persuading children to realize history through the exercise of reason and imagination in the attempt to reproduce persons and events. There is just now great conflict on the subject of American public schools. Here and there are educators who believe that there is too much experiment in the new system. However, the dominant thought is generally accepted. This striving toward industrial training relates to cities and towns. It is well understood that a country boy or girl receives manual training and acquires a practical knowledge of things in his or her ordinary life in a farm district. It is the children growing up in centers of population, where everything is specialized, and almost everything reduced to machinery, who need vocational development in school. The confessed general object of the average American school teacher to-day is to so develop the natural industrial and artistic capacities of children, in addition to a good command of the three Rs, that when they reach the ordinary age for leaving the elementary schools, say from 14 to 16 years, they will have distinctly shown their various mental and manual aptitudes. With technical and industrial schools in place of the academic high school, they will take an effort to keep their children in training for the sake of higher wages and greater opportunities for promotion insured by vocational education. Of course the academic high school will continue to exist for that comparatively small number whose means and ambitions destine them to a classical or professional course. The growth of cities and towns, the concentration and specialization of industries and the imminations of immigration have thrown other new burdens on the public schools. The old American home training, with its ideals of conduct, helptownness, patriotism and morals, can no longer be depended upon as before in centers of population. The old American home life, and its standards, are rapidly disappearing, and at a time when the church, too, is losing authority and influence. This time of loosening social bonds of drifting ideals and of florid social competition—still confounded by the new-creasing flow of mixed blood from alien civilizations—the American school house stands as the one universal instrument left to society. It has largely taken the place of the homes as a guardian of the health of children. That is one of its most significant developments. It has also accepted sociological duties through its kindergarten in keeping mere infants out of the house, cooking, and other household things that require them at home. It maintains recreation grounds, where children are trained to play.

ARMOR OF PARIS APACHE French Bandit Wears Spiked Wristlets and Shoulder Straps to Tear Policemen's Hands. Paris.—The Apaches of Paris, a band of assassins who know no law, hate the police and fight to the death when an attempt is made to capture them after they have committed a murder or robbery gave the overworked authorities great trouble during the excitement and suffering caused by the flood. One An Apache's Armer. of those recently arrested was found to be protected against capture by the police in a clever but cruel manner. He was taken after a desperate battle and gave his name as Jaques Liaibuef. It was found that he wore around his wrists bands of leather which were studded with brass spikes sharpened like needles. The same kind of armon was attached to his shoulders. When the policemen attempted to grab him their hands were torn into shreds by the spikes. He was armed with a murderous looking knife and a revolver and had killed a policeman when are rested. MEANS BIG LEGAL FIGHT Arrest of Dr. B. C. Hyde in Swope Case Will Cause Court Battle. Kansas City, Mo.—Great legal battles, both in the criminal and civil courts, are expected in the Swope case, which attaches attention throughout the country because of the prominence and wealth of the persons concerned. Dr. Bennett Clarke Hyde, whose wife is a niece of Col. Swope, has been arrested on a charge of murdering the millionaire with strchinechine. This assures a law battle in the criminal courts. Then there is a likelihood of a fight among the heirs for the riches of the dead man. A young man has come A. H. Dr. B. C. Hyde forward with the claim that he is a son of the millionaire. Dr. Hyde has filed one libel suit and withdrawn it, but probably will file another against the administrator of the estate. Good Work Goes On. William Randell, for 40 years of the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, says that within his tenure public opinion on the proper care and treatment of animals has so changed that instead of two acts of parliament there are now upward of twenty which deal directly with cruelty to animals. The branches of the society have increased from 20 to 620. The business of selling old, worn-out horses has been attacked for years by his society single-handed, but he now feels more hopeful. "We want spurious sports to be made illegal, pril vantage slaughter houses to be abolished, cruel exhibitions of performing animals to be stopped, with increased supervision to prevent overloading," he says. Baby Gave Name to Home. Baby Save Name to Home. Yodo, the Patagonia home from which she was born, had a fatal trip to New York, is one of the show places of the spa town. It devises its name from the utterance of a little daughter of the Trasks. When she crossed for the first time a rustic bridge over the picturesque sheet of water which lies near the home, she pointed and said: "Yodo," which was as near as her baby tongue could get to the word "shadow," and she did not know that the childish utterance had given a name to the place. QUEENS BAR CORSET Three in Crusade Against Compressing Their Bodies. Helena of Italy, Alexandra of England, and Elizabeth of Roumania Take Action Which May Searn New York.—A corset strike may engage the attention of the women after they have finished with the meat strike, for it is now considered "queenly" to go without the expensive and uncomfortable adornments, according to information received here. Besides, stylish corsets are getting so long it is unpleasant to walk in them. Any girl will tell you that. And the longer they make them the more they cost. Any married man can tell you that the high cost of corsets has kept pace with the high cost of living. But the main thing just now is that Queen Elizabeth of Roumania has concluded a triple alliance against the corsets. Three queens are hard to beat. In addition to Queen Elizabeth, there are Queen Alexandra of Engl and Queen Heleena of Italy. All are side queens who can wear what they desire and afford to pay for it and have a vast burden of court etiquette to manage. Queen Elizabeth told her court all about it a day or two ago. She received a letter from Queen Alexandra saying the latter had decided that a woman's dress should follow her natural lines. Even if these lines are inartistic that is no reason why a Queen Helena of Italy. woman should endanger her health and posterity, says the queen. The corset, opines Queen Alexandra, does not carry out the idea of natural lines in dress. On the other hand, it thwarts such an idea and gives the body a sort of a nom de plume. It is a frond, often a snare and delusion, and Queen Alexandra was anxious that her disapproval be published to the world. It was this attitude of Queen Alexandra, according to Queen Elizabeth, that caused the former to invent the princess idea of dress, for which many shapely women are so thankful. "Her majesty of England," went on Queen Elizabeth, to her courtiers, "depresses blouses, maintains the subdivision of the female body by the blouse and skirt is unbeautiful if not a downright scarcile." So Queen Elizabeth indorsed Queen Alexandra and then proclaimed some views of her own. "The corsec," she declared, "is an invention of man, not of woman. Most men judge a woman's beauty according to the standard of an expensive corsetmaker. Queen Elizabeth forthwith wrote a pamphlet setting down her reflections on the subject and is having it circulated all over Rounania. It was then that the queen of Italy became a part of the triple alliance. She gave away all her corses—one for every gown—and wrote to Queen Elizabeth as follows: "I am opposed to the corset on principle, because I think it unhygienic and directly injurious to women, particularly to mothers. Women who have studied the funerals and disguise to wear corses. Only thoughts will imitate the habits of women still more giddy and allow their bodies to be squeezed tightly and their organs to be distorted." Soul of British Empire The city of London proper, which lies in the heart of Greater London, has a living population of but 35,000 by night, although 300,000 people do business there by day, while all of the currents of British life pass through its portals. Here is the soul of the empire, with its population of 400, 000,000, and of its area of 11,400,000 square miles, or more than one-fifth of the population and area of the globe.—Scribner's.

IS HEFLIN A CHRISTIAN? Representative Heflin of Alabama preached at Central Union Mission, Washington, D. C., Sunday night on "The Christian Spirit." Evidently he was talking on a subject with which he was little acquainted. For years he has labored like a fiend to micrepresent and injure a class of people who compose a large percentage of the population of his congressional district. Because the Afro-Americans are cheated out of their votes, Heflin is able to represent Alabama in Congress. He has no moral right to the place, and if he were a true Christian he would scorn to accept a place to which he is not entitled. It was Heflin who suggested that President Roosevelt should have been blown up with dynamite because he [Image of a man with a mustache and a suit, facing forward.] Copyright 1909, by Harris & Ewing. HON. FRANKLIN MACVEAGH Secretary of the United States Treasury. and New York. HON. FRANK H. HITCHCOCK, Postmaster General of the United States. entertained an Afro-American at dinner. Is that an evidence of Christianity? Heflin, in his efforts to have some of his fellow citizens labeled as pariahs has introduced a number of jimcrow measures in Congress. Is that the Christian Spirit? Heflin spends a lot of his time writing articles and making public speeches against his brothers in black. Is that the Christian Spirit? Some time ago Heflin shot and dangerously wounded two men, one an Afro-American, the other a Caucasian. He came near being a murderer. Christ never tried to kill anyone. Judging Heflin by his life and deeds, he is not a Christian, but a lieutenant of Satan. AS-YE SOW, SO SHALL YE REAP. All persons acquainted with race conditions in the South are aware that in that section miscegation has prevailed to a vast extent. Public sentiment made no protest against this condition of things, and, indeed it was by many Southern thinkers stoutly maintained that it was in reality a benefit, that the sacrifice of the virtue of the black woman was almost an absolute protection of the purity of the white woman. This was regarded as an admirable dispensation of Providence, showing His high regard for the "superior" race. But it is evident from an article in one of the magazines that such views in the matter are changing. The contention of the article is simply this, that the young white man, by his illicit intercourse with the black woman, contracts a "social disease" which by subsequent marriage, he communicated to the white woman; and that to an appalling extent. From this cause there resulted such diseases as tuberculosis, locomotor ataxia and infantile blindness. If there is any truth in the matter it shows that the South is still paying the penalty of its violation of the laws of God in slavery days. "Hope springs eternal in the human breast" and the Afro-American may hope that God in His own way and time will bring about a change from the present awful conditions which now confront him when such men as Bishop McIntyre of St. Paul express such sentiments as he did before the Minnesota Methodist Conference this week. In his address on "The Battle of Life" he recounted his early experience in life, giving as his first life battle his successful stand against the attempt of his fellow workmen on a bricklaying job to force him to drink liquor. He made a strong plea for tolerance of the black man in his present condition, predicting that the Afro-American, with help and inspiration, will arise a most ennobled race. He dramatically told of the flight of the Jews from Egypt and the destruction of the Egyptian army and the fall of the empire. He closed as follows: "Egypt trampled on the world: God trampled on Egypt. Egypt forgot her people; God forgot Egypt." ABSURD ARGUMENTS The relation of the larger universities of the United States to the practical problems of existence is being emphasized in an astonishing degree nowadays. If the notion of cloistered halls where pale-faced students pored over musty tomes once held sway, that idea has entirely disappeared. The dominant thought appears to be, how can the training of the schools be made most useful in bettering the conditions of human life.-Chicago Tribune. THE APPEAL quotes the foregoing as an excellent sample of absurd arguments respecting education. It is based upon the assumption that educational courses that "once held sway" had no relation to the "conditions of human life." But, when a pale-faced student discovered vaccination, had the discovery no relations to those conditions? When pale-faced students banished the plague from London and lightened her streets with gas, did that have no relation to the conditions of life? When pale-faced students translated the Bible did that have no relation to those conditions? When a pale-faced student studied the vibrations of the pendulum, did that have no relation to such conditions? When a pale-faced student invented printing with movable type, did that have no such relation? NOT A SPECIAL RACIAL DEPRAVITY. The Afro-American has been often and severely censured on account of his having changed his "longin' fun de ole plantation" to a longin' to hike to town and there abide. This has been attributed by Southern savans to a special racial depravity, to which the "superior" race was not subject, but the latest development upon the subject shows that the white man is doing exactly what the Afro-American has been so berated for doing: that is, moving to town. Very eminent authorities are satisfied that if the present conditions continue, in a few years our population will not produce enough for its own consumption and will be compelled to import what it now exports. During the past year, Argentine, for the first time, exported more grain than this country did; and, of course, bought all her supplies from the countries to which she sold her products. THE SOCIETY OF THE, BANANA. As the result of a trial at Toledo, Ohio, an interesting piece of literature has been introduced to public notice—the constitution of The Society of the Banana. This desirable addition to ways and means of our progress in civilization is of Sicilian origin, and has already been indirectly made famous by the opera, "The Sicilian Vespers." The object of the society is blackmailing and it enforces its decrees by means of poisoned bananas. The authorities of various cities admit that they are unable to exterminate these murderous organizations and it is admitted that there is a very rapid increase in the number of the undesirable, who are dumping themselves upon our shores. These murderous wretches are given rights which are denied to honest, God-fearing Afro-American citizens. MADE FOR "NIGGERS." Dr. Oscar Haywood, who has made a study of prevailing conditions in the South, doubts the sincerity of the whites who make and administer the law. He found that everywhere there is prohibition for the Afro-American and license for the white. Dr. Haywood has sized up the situation exactly. A Northern man was once visiting a friend in the South and noticed that the friend had a great big pistol under his coat-tail, "Why, Jones," said he, "I thought your law prohibited carrying concealed weapons." "Yes, it does," said the friend, "but that law was made for niggers." And the so-called prohibition laws are made for "niggers." Mr. John H.

Representative Lowden Will Set Up Black Hawk War Mounments to Mark Lincoln's Path. Representative Frank O.

Mr. Lowden has donated consider able money to the plan and others have become interested. His object is permanently to fix the march and the places where the followers of the martyr President camped. The march started from Beardstown, con tinued to Qawka, and thence to the mouth of Rock River. The markers are to be of stone w ith suitable inscriptions. It is Mr. Lowden's plan to have maps of the ter ritory, copies of which will be kept in public records of the State of Illinois. ers in the South, owning and cultivat- ANOTHER EVIDENCE OF IN- FERIORITY A few years since he substituted Italians for Afro-Americans upon his various plantations in Arkansas. He now pronounces the Italians "ingrates of the deepest dye,"—"appear to have no idea of fair business methods" and "appear to be practically worthless." Mr. Gracie's experience is but a repetition of that of every other planter who has tried the same experiment. Mr. Gracie has tried everything he could think of to make his laborers contented: built them a chapel, secured an Italian priest, etc., but the thing was a dismal failure. Mr. Gracie is probably a wiser man than he was. JOHNSON FOR RECORDER. The President has sent to the Senate the nomination of Henry Lincoln Johnson, Esq., the Afro-American lawyer of Atlanta, Ga., to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia, succeeding John C. Dancy. Mr. Johnson took a prominent part in the Chicago national convention in securing delegates for Taft. During the campaign for the nomination he assisted former Assistant Secretary of Commerce and Labor Ormsby McHarg in Georgia and handled the Taft and of the Georgia contest before the national committee. Mr. Johnson is a good lawyer and an astute politician and THE AP-PEAL congratulates him. Despite the fact that many have predicted that the man and brother would not be considered when the invitations were issued to come up to the pie counter, a number have been handed slices. The latest to come to our notice are: W. D. Johnson, editor of the Kentucky Standard, who has been appointed special agent of the Land Department at a salary of $2,000 per year and expenses; Nelson Crews of Kansas City, Mo., who has been appointed Special Agent in the Department of Agriculture at $2,000 per year and expenses. Let the good work go on; we can stand a few slices more and what is more to the point we deserve them.

Deneen, who removed the Cairo sheriff from office. The Courier-Journal intimates that the Shipp ovation "does not reflect the spirit of the thinking citizens of Chattanooga." But unfortunately the aforesaid "thinking citizens" are such cowards that they do not give utterance to their thoughts; ; and such moral cowardice exists all over the South. "AS HE WAS, NOT AS HE IS." Maj. Holmes Conrad of Winchester, Va., addressing a meeting of Confederates, said: "We love the Negro as he was, not as he is." The sentiment was applauded with vigor by the men who sought to destroy the Union. That's the Southern idea. When the Afro-American was a slave a good able-bodied man was worth $1,500 or $2,000 and that's why he was "loved." Now that the Afro-American has some freedom—he is not yet absolutely free—and is acquiring property and educating his children he isn't "loved" by the Southerner. He's becoming a menace to Caucasian civilization." able money to| the plan and others is permanently to fix the march and e martyr President camped.

Such cultured, refined and intelligent Southern gentlemen as Tillman, Jeff Davis and Heflin continue to prate about the inferiority of the Afro-American. THE APPEAL begs to call their attention to some recent doings of one of the "inferior" race, and a little girl at that. Estelle T. Gibbs, a fourteen-year-old black girl won the first prize, a gold medal, at the graduating exercises of the Hoboken, N. J., public schools. She had the highest average of any other public school pupil in the city—$99\%$ per cent in six subjects. In all but one of her studies the girl was rated at 100. In geography she made 96. The five branches in which she reached the maximum were history, civics, spelling, arithmetic and grammar. Eighteen questions were posted at the geography examination, and the pupils had the privilege of selecting ten to answer. The teacher who conducted the examination says that Estelle picked out the ten hardest. There are 10,000 Caucasian children and only 15 Afro-Americans in the public schools of Hoboken. We presume Mr. Vardaman, of Mississippi, is too busy trying to break into the United States Senate to pay much attention to this new evidence of Afro-American inferiority.

WASHINGTON, FOURTH STREET, ST. PETE AIRWAYS "YOUNG BUFFALO IN NEW YORK." The Next Attraction at the Grand Theatre. Chas. E. Blaney, with his usual good forestsight, feeling that the day for blood cardiology and wild Western plays had about commenced to wane, has written a play for his famous actor scout, Young Buffalo, which is quite different from any in which this well-known player has to date been seen in. It is called "Young Buffalo in New York," and deals most interestingly and entertainingly with a series of incidents connected with the young plainsman's efforts to recover a fortune inherited by him from his par- THE WILD WEST entr. The play is in four acts, the scenes of the first three being all laid in New York City, the last in Angel Gulch, Arizona. Quiet heroics, romance, love and comedy have been deftly interwoven into the drama, making it one which will without question cause it to score a great big success. The story is a most interesting one and will hold its auditors intently throughout its telling. The comedy scenes which abound of are of the esparkling kind, mostly furnished by Judge Grit, the Angel Gulch jurist, well known and remembered in all of Wong Buffalo's productions, and Bull Monson, a new character, a sort of East Side heeler, who has turned private detective. Naturally the production will be excellent, the Chas. E. Blaney Amusement Company is noted for its liberality in this respect, and the company which will be seen in support of the star is a very excellent one, each member of which gives a good account of him or herself. This attraction will open Sunday matinee, March 6, at the Grand. The Wise's house looked homelike to the long legged bird that hovered overheard.
