THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It aims to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its correspondents are able and energetic. THE MONUMENT TO THE GREAT GENERAL GENERAL GILBERT FAWCPTT STATUE OF ADMIRAL THERAGUT STATUE OF GEN. THOMAS STATUE OF GEN. SHERMAN ably seconded by most of the state governments, to convert into national parks the tracts of land in the southern and middle states which were the scenes of the great battles of the Civil war. Each year sees new reservations of this kind acquired by purchase of congress or through other means and set aside as permanent testimonials of the nation's gratitude to the men who fought and died there. Keeping pace with the creation of new parks is the policy of extension being pursued with reference to the older established battlefield parks which have not included at the outset—as few of them have—the entire areas embraced in the battle which they commemorate. A second and even more direct influence in fostering the present activity in the creation of memorials in marble and bronze is the custom which has grown up with the development of the battlefield park plan of suitably marking every historic spot at the scene of a great struggle between the Union and Confederate forces. This explains the dozens and even hundreds of statues, monuments and markers that are now to be found in the average important battlefield park. Some of the monuments are erected by appropriation of congress or by funds set aside by the legislatures of states that desire to thus honor their sons who fought in defense of the flag. An even greater number of these enduring tributes, VOL. 26. NO. 22. THE MONUMENT TO THE GREAT GENERAL GATES STATUE OF GEM HANCOCK ECENT arrangements for the completion this year of a $250,000 statue to Gen. U. S. Grant and the unveiling of a statue to Gen. Phil. Sheridan, the dashing cavalry leader of the Civil war, following close upon the dedication of similar bronze figures of Generals ECENT arrangements for the completion this year of a $250,000 statue to Gen. U. S. Grant and the unveiling of a statue to Gen. Phil. Sheridan, the dashing cavalry leader of the Civil war, following close upon the dedication of similar bronze figures of Generals Sherman and McCllenan, betokens the intention of the American people to provide, through their representatives in congress, a most notable testimonial in sculpture to the leaders of the war for the Union. No other country in the world can boast so pretentious a tribute to the hepes of any conflict in its history. To honor by counterfeit presentments in marble and bronze the saviors of the republic will cost the nation, ultimately, millions of dollars, but unquestionably it will be worth of questionably it will be worth all its costs as a lesson in patriotism for coming generations. This labor of gratitude has been in progress for some years past, and already a dozen or more of the foremost warriors in the Union army have been thus honored. Of late years, however, the importance has been emphasized by the increasingly elaborate character of the monuments erected. The climax will come a year (or less) hence, with the completion of that splendid memorial to General Grant for which the congress of the United States has appropriated a quarter of a million dollars, and for the foundation of which ground has been set aside in the shadow of the United States capitol. The scene of this shrine to military fame is, appropriately enough, the national capital—the city of Washington, which is coming year by year to take on more and more the character of a beautiful creation in architecture and sculpture and landscape gardening that is the property of the whole people. The statues to the victors in the struggle between the north and south occupy conspicuous positions in the most advantageously located of the parks and circles with which the seat of government abounds—verdure-clad breathing spaces which seem as though they might have been specially provided as sites for just such herole or life-size figures. Some of the statues are under the shadow of the capitol, others cluster about the White House, and yet others are placed where they will kindle inspiration in the patriotic pilgrim to the capital. Much of the impressiveness of the statues to the military heroes of the Federal armies is doubtless due to the fact that almost all of them are equestrian. It is customary in all countries to portray as "men on horseback" only the so-called royal personages, or men who were actual commanders of troops, or enjoyed the title of commander. The first equestrian statue ever erected in the Western Hemisphere, was the one of George III. of England, which stood in Bowling Green at the foot of Broadway, New York city, and which during the war for independence was melted up and cast into bullets by patriotic daughters of Miss Columbia. T The oldest equestrian monument now standing in the New World is a colossal statue of Charles IV. of Spain, in the City of Mexico. The initial equestrian statue in the United States is the renowned one of Gen. Andrew Jackson, which stands in the park directly in front of the White House at Washington. It is estimated that there are 400 equestrian statues in the world, of which number the city on the Potomac will have, with the completion of the Grant memorial, a total of 12, most of them representations of Civil war heroes. The first statue arranged for in honor of a warrior identified with the Civil war was that in which Gen. Winfield Scott is depicted mounted on a charger at rest. This monument was ordered in 1867, and was erected seven years later. General Scott is in the uniform of lieutenant general. The material for the figures of horse and rider was derived from cannon captured during the Mexican war in which General Scott won his greatest fame. The pedestal for this statue is made up of five huge pieces of granite cut in Cape Ann quarries, and at the time they were obtained, the largest pieces of granite ever cut from quar- --- THE APPEAL. ries in this country. Next came the erection of a statue to Gen. James B. McPherson. This was erected through the efforts of the Society of the Army of the Tennessee, and it was intended that the monument should constitute McPherson's tomb. Beneath the statue is a vault designed to receive the body of the gallant officer killed near Atlanta, but such interment was never made. The statue represents McPherson as he led in battle. In his right hand he holds field glasses and is portrayed as gazing deliberately over a field of battle. Surpassingly inspiring and magnificent is the statue erected to Gen. George H. Thomas by his comrades of the Army of the Cumberland in 1874. The "Rock of Chickamauga" is rep- MODE B DESIGNING THE NATION'S BATTLEFIELD MEMORIALS HE MAKING of battlefield monuments and memorials has' developed into an important industry in the United States during the past few years. This is due, first of all, to the increase in the number and size of our battlefield national parks. It is now the policy of the national government, conded by most of the state governments, pert into national parks the tracts of land southern and middle states which were ones of the great battles of the Civil war. war sees new reservations of this kind ac- by purchase of congress or through other and set aside as permanent testimonials of son's gratitude to the men who fought and were. Keeping pace with the creation of THE STATUE OF THE MASTER OF DRESS resented refining in his horse in order that he may obtain a better view of a field of battle. J. Q. A. Ward is the sculptor of this masterpiece, and every person who has seen it will readily agree with the art critics that there is not in the whole range of the world's sculpture so splendid a representation of a horse as the charger on which the Virginian is seated. A fine equestrian statue of General Hancock was unveiled in 1896. Allike to the Thomas statue, the pose is one of action, the hero of Gettysburg being portrayed as a commander watchful and alert in the center of activities. The statue of General Logan, the first of the memorials to be unveiled during the present century, is unique in many respects. Gen- however, have been erected by organizations made up of the survivors of companies, troops, battles, regiments or other minor divisions of a contesting army and who take this means of testifying to their regard for their fallen comrades. Perhaps the best evidence of the extent to which modern sculpture is being relied upon to commemorate the deeds and the heroes of the greatest of civil wars is afforded by a tour of the Gettysburg National park. Here, lining more than 100 miles of carefully prepared roadway and marking every significant point in the three days' battle, are a total of more than 400 monuments, memorial shafts and tablets and more than 1,000 markers. Many of these testimonials in marble, granite and bronze are elaborate and costly and the aggregate cost amounts to several million dollars. And yet on this battlefield as elsewhere the labor of love is only partially completed. Numerous other monuments are definitely projected and yet others are in contemplation. The provision of monuments in ever-increasing numbers for the battlefields (of which Gettysburg is only one) would indeed be an appalling task were it necessary to laboriously chisel out of marble by hand all the statues and carved figures. However, modern ingenuity has provided means for effective "short cuts" in battlefield sculpture-expedients that make it possible to eral Logan is represented as riding along the line of battle his sword drawn and carried low in his right hand. The horse is represented in the attitude of moving at a slow trot. On one face of the pedestal of the monument is a group representing General Logan with other leading officers of the Army of the Tennessee, while opposite is a group representing General Logan taking the oath of office as United States senator, administered by Vice-President Arthur. All of these equestrian statues have cost considerable sums. The General Scott statue cost $20,000, and the pedestal $25,000 more. The bronze figure of McPherson cost $23,000, and the pedestal $25,000. The sum of $40,000 was paid for Ward's matchless statue of Thomas, and $25,000 for the pedestal. The statue of General Hancock involved the expenditure of $49,000 all told, and the Logan statue cost $65,000, of which sum congress appropriated $50,000. As has been said, the maximum expenditure will be made in the case of the great memorial to General Grant, upon which at least $250,000 will be expended. Because no definite program was followed in honoring the heroes of the Civil war, it came about that some of the lesser leaders were commemorated in bronze ere the greatest Union leaders received homage in this form. However, the past few years has witnessed the beginning of compensation in this direction. The first step was the provision of a heroic equestrian statue, with an attendant group of symbolic figures of Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman. Next after the Sherman statue came the statue to McClellan, which shows "Little Mac" seated upon a splendid charger, and portrays the great organizer of the Union army wearing the service cap which became familiar to all the boys in blue who followed him. Now the nation has added to its open-air gallery of fame a statue of Gen. Phil Sheridan.

Many of the present-day battlefield memorials are in bronze and in the cast of such a monument it is only necessary to model the figure in plaster. Molds are taken from this and when forwarded to the foundry enable the casting of the figure in bronze—a replica or exact duplicate of the original design which the sculptor fashioned in the clay or plaster. The correspondingly rapid creation of granite or marble statues presented for a long time more of a problem, but it has been solved and largely by the invention of some wonderful new tools and appliances which make the long-dreamed of "sculpture by machinery" a reality.

At each one of these modern monument making institutions the air is compressed at a central power plant and is led by means of pipes and hose to the various localities where the mechanical chiseling is to be done. The designs for a statue or monument are first prepared by draftsmen and are then outlined on the stones to be cut. With these markings as a guide a workman manipulating one of the portable pneumatic tools can carve out quickly and with great accuracy the intended design. The principle of the superiority of the mechanical carver is that it rains hundreds of blows a minute, whereas the artisan with mallet and chisel would not deliver more than one or two blows. It can be appreciated that the surface to be cut is covered much more rapidly by the machine method, and moreover the air-driven chisel will cut more accurately and with greater uniformity than any save the most expert sculptor unfailed.

SCORN "LIFE ELIXIR" SCORN "LIFE ELIXIR" Cleveland Physicians Take No Stock in French Discovery. Dr. Doyen, Eminent Paris Surgeon, Claims to Have Found in "Mycolysine" Preparation to Prolong Life Fifteen Years. Cleveland, O.-Mycolysine, Dr. Eugene Doyen's newly-discovered "elixir of life," should be taken with a grain of salt, many Cleveland physicians believe. There will be no rush to Paris on the part of the Cleveland doctors to take advantage of Doctor Doyen's offer to permit American physicians to test and experiment with mycolysene. Lecturing the other day, Doctor Doyen, described an "elixir of long life" of his discovery. He calls it "Mycolysine," because of the fact that it dissolves, germs. He argued that if it were feasible to multiply by ten the activity of the phagocytes, the resistance offered to malevolent germs by the human body would be much increased; that, as a consequence, many infectious diseases would disappear, more especially those of the skin, the respiratory organs, and the digestive tubes, and stated that his discovery makes this possible. Phagogenous colloides are the basis of the new "elixir." The famous physician and surgeon asserts that through the use of mycolysine from fifteen to twenty years may be added to the life of an average man, and that most diseases of the respiratory organs and digestive tract will disappear altogether. While admitting that the use of the newly-discovered chemical may be beneficial to a certain extent, Cleveland practitioners do not believe that an elixir of life has been found in the discovery of mycolysine. "Golf, exercise and temperate habits," said Dr. Hamilton Biggar, "I believe will do more toward prolonging human life than any 'elixir' that Doctor Doyen has discovered. This same French physician some years ago announced to the world that he had a sure cure for cancer. Subsequently it was found that his 'cure' could not be made to bring results when tried in this country. I fear that it will prove Doctor Doyen at Work. the same with mycolysine in so far as its life-prolonging properties are considered." Dr. Martin Friederich was not surprised by the announcement of the discovery of another elixir of life. "Periodical discoveries of something or other which the discoverer claims will prolong human life indefinitely are announced," he said, "but when the smoke clears away we seldom hear of them again. Nature cannot be changed, even by so eminent a physician and surgeon as Doctor Doye. Typhoid. The very great decrease in typhoid fever in Philadelphia since the establishment of the filtration system is in harmony with general experience. According to a recent bulletin of the Vermont state board of health, the effect of change in the water supply in seven American cities has been to reduce the combined annual average death rate from typhoid fever by some 70 per cent. But it must not be forgotten that while polluted water is a main cause of epidemics of typhoid, it is not the only carrier. The same authority believes that about 80 per cent of all cases are borne by water or by milk. In the other 20 per cent. the disease may be spread by the agency of files, personal contact, shellfish raised in polluted waters, or fruit or vegetables raised in polluted soil. These various agencies will explain why filtration of the water alone does not entirely eradicate typhoid, while at the same time it is evident that this is the first and most important step in the suppression of the disease. Manuscripts of Unusual Interest. The sale of royal manuscripts, which is to take place at Sotheby's shortly, will bring together a number of interested autograph collectors, for there are some of unusual interest. Such, for instance, as letters from sovereign pontifex, ranging from 1417 to 1904; letters from Mary Queen of Scots, and from Queen Elizabeth in their quinquennial Shakespearean hand. Indeed, it will appear as if the sale of these letters is likely to bring to light a great deal of unraveled mystery and to afford information in reference to some of the unsolved stories of court intrigue of those days.—American Register, London. $2.40 PER YEAR Reception Given to Prince Tsai-Tao in United States Gratifying to His Country. Washington—The Chinese government is greatly pleased with Prince Tsai-Tao's reception in the United States. The cordiality of the American welcome is especially appreciated because of the sharp contrast with the peculiar attitude of Great Britain, which has sought to make courtesy to a member of the imperial family conditional upon political and commercial considerations. Despite repudiated denials, it is a fact that Downing street notified the Chinese minister in London that the prince would not be welcomed unless China first agreed to Great Britain's demands regarding the administration of China's maritime customs, reopened the Macao boundary question with Portugal and met the British demands in the notorious Kalping mines case. The official visit of Prince Tsai-Tao and his party to the national capital was brought to a close with one of the most brilliant social functions of the year. Attended, as Rear Admiral Robley Evans said, by "every one I have ever seen," the reception which followed the banquet given by Chang Yin-Tang, the Chinese minister, took place in the large ballroom on the tenth floor of the New Willard hotel. The hall was beautifully decorated for the occasion, the Chinese and American flags being side by side at the far end of the hall so as to be the first objects seen by the guests as they entered. Prince Tsai-Tao, Li Chang-Mal, Chang Yin-Tang, the Chinese minister, and Yung Kwal, secretary of the Chinese legation, stood in line near the entrance and were presented to the guests as they entered. Beside them stood Mme. Chang, wife of Henry K. Chang, honorary secretary, and the three Misses Tang, daughters of Tang Shao-Yi, who last year visited the United States as special ambassador. They were all in Chinese dress. SINGS FOR 800 PRISONERS Miss Geraldine Farrar, Opera Star, Gladdens Hearts of Convicts in Georgia Penitentiary.

No better proof of the failure of the Caucasian Christian Church of America to stand squarely in opposition to the color line, can be found than the recent episode in the International Sunday School Congress, which met in Washington, D. C., last week. The Congress is alleged to be a meeting of Sunday school workers from every land, but the local committee decided to bar all Afro-Americans of the District of Columbia from the street parade. Ten thousand Caucasians, East Indians, Chinese, Japanese, Siamese, Malays, Hawaiians and members of various colored races, paraded the streets of the National capital singing "Onward, Christian Soldiers!" Only three Afro-Americans were in the procession, the District of Columbia and Virginia would not permit [Image of a man with a mustache and a suit, facing slightly to the right]. colored American Christians in the to come to Washington May 26 to parade. work for New Orleans as the point A.

Now if the Congress is a Christian organization, it is the opinion of THE APPEAL that it ought to have denounced and repudiated the unchristian action of the Washington local committee and the stand of the Virginia delegation. THE "BLACK MAMMY" MONUMENT The proposal of certain Southerners to erect a monument to the "Black Mammy" does not meet the approval of THE APPEAL. The "Black Mammy" is a person of the past and her place has been taken by thousands of educated, cultured and refined Afro-Americans of today. The South wishes to remind the race of its former servile condition and to perpetuate for all time the knowledge of such condition. This is to be done under pretense of love for the "Black Mammy" of slavery days. If the South was really sincere in its love for the "Black Mammy" it would not hate her noble sons and charming daughters among the Afro-Americans of today and would not enact unjust, unchristian, inhuman laws to humiliate and degrade them and deprive them of their rights as citizens. The $1,000,000 it is proposed to waste on a monument could be used to more advantage to the race in some other way. The entire Louisiana legislature is accomplishing the reorganization of asury department, which he began out of material relocating the interests of the service treasurer, therefore he deserved desirable. work for New Orleans as the pound for the exposition to be held in honor of the completion of the Panama Canal. THE APPEAL hopes that San Francisco will be named. New Orleans is not the place for such an exposition. There is too much race prejudice in that jimcrow town. The majority of the people of South and Central America are mixed bloods, Caucasian, Indian and Negro, and there is no certainty that they would be courteously treated in a jimcrow city like New Orleans. EVIDENCE OF CHRISTIANITY. The color line has at last reached Oberlin College. Oberlin was a strong abolition town long before the war, but it has fallen into line with the growing race prejudice. Hereafter no Afro-American student will be accepted on social terms with white students. All literary clubs, Greek letter societies and debating clubs have also barred the colored student. American Christianity with its color line continues its triumphal progress. The general assembly of the Presbyterian church in session at Atlantic City passed a resolution condemning the persecution of the Jews in Russia. Nothing was said about the persecution of Afro-Americans in this country or in condemnation of the recent insult to the race by the Sunday School Congress at Washington. The Presbyterians did, however, protest against the Jeffries-Johnson fight on July 4 for fear that a black man would whip a white man.

Grant near Vicksburg under rather embarrassing conditions. He was in General Hovey's old regiment, the Twenty-fourth Indiana, from June, 1861, until August, 1864. "The stage of the great war drama had been shifted to Vicksburg and vicinity," said the veteran in relating his story. "On April 28, at Hard Times Landing, thirty-five miles below Vicksburg. I saw General Grant, Governor Dick Yates and Fred Grant (then a boy, apparently only thirteen or fourteen years of age, but wearing a captain's shoulder straps) board a tug and cross the river. The cannonading between our fleet and the forts was terrific, and I could see the cannon balls come skimming along on the water, some of them very near to General Grant's tug, but he stood calmly on deck, not in the least disturbed. The next day I crossed the river on the flagship Benton and stood within six feet of Grant for three hours. He chewed an unlighted cigar stub all the time. I saw him no more until about May 8. **TRAMP, tramp, the boys are marching, sing it with a vim.** **TRAMP, tramp, the boys are marching, sing it with a vim.** **TRAMP, tramp, the boys are marching, sing it for the love of him!** **Way down the track, the song came to the shoes faintly play.** **The Girl I Left Me, "m" at last they die away.** calmly on turbed. river on t within si hours. shall all they die away.

Asked What We Were Doing There, than ours, but we decided to take the risk for a square meal. The day was cloudy and dark and finally we lost our bearings. But we had a few chickens, some sweet potatoes, peas and a duck or two, and so really did not worry over the situation. When we were at last picked up by a patrol guard of our own army we were so relieved at not falling into the hands of the enemy that we did not take our predicament seriously. It was when the guard took us to General Grant's own headquarters a short distance away that we saw we had but stepped out of the frying pan into the fire. We knew Grant was a good disciplinarian and we had broken the rules. "General Grant was not in his tent at first, but soon came. He threw his bridle reins to an orderly and strode into his tents, giving us rather a curious glance as he went by. In a few minutes he came out again and asked us what we were doing there. Our spokesman glibly manufactured a tale about a sick brother being weak and badly in need of better food than hardtack on which to regain his strength. It was at once evident that General Grant's sympathy had been aroused. "Then he proceeded to tell us that he would forego punishment, in view of the cause that had led us to go foraging, but he asked us to promise that we would never again be guilty of such an act. He said that we were in the enemy's country and did not know at what hour he would have to order the army to move. He said he knew we were short of rations, but that he had sixteen boats loaded down with provisions waiting for us just above Vicksburg. "You can bet we went away with some new ideas about Grant. His talk was our salivation, for General Hovey was fully determined to make an example of us until he heard General Grant had ordered us back to our company. That 'sick brother' story would not have done to tell General Hovey." The Dwindling Line. The Grand Army of the Republic has passed the point where it can gain in numbers, and every year cuts down its total. No American who watches the parade at an annual encampment can fall to draw inspiration from the patriotism for which these men stand, nor can he fall to be saddened by the thought that fewer remain each time to carry on the work The first national home for disabled volunteers was established at Togus, Me., in 1886, and is known as the Eastern. The following year three other homes were established—the Central, at Dayton, O.; the Northwestern, at Milwaukee, Wis., and the Southern, at Hampton, Va. In 1885 the Western, at Leavenworth, Kan., was opened. In 1888 the Pacific, near Santa Monica, Cal., was opened. The Marion, near Marion, Ind., was opened in 1890. The Danville, near Danville, Ill., was opened in 1898. The Mountain, near Johnson City, Tenn., was opened in 1903. The last, the Battle Mountain Sanitarium, at Hot Springs, S. D., was opened in 1907.

Poor Baby, the feet of him stand shoeless with courage there, born of despair—like something half divine; Face powder-stained, while bullets rained defiant there he stood. To load and fire at each command and wish thee for Hood. Ah, Baby Jimmy's prayer must needs go up for you. If wrong or right—it is her plight—"God bless the gray and blue!" The boy in blue—ah, well he knew, that Jim was ever there; But what of him? Night's sable rim closed 'round him in despair; With heart of steel, for woe or weal—he sees the bayonets shine— With dawn, leap like a lance, he skims the picket line! W HAT strange intent! Presentiment? He seasung the dead; He feels a touch of clutch, then lifts his brother's head. "This message bear, to mother there," said Jim, "I am to blame. But she'll forgive, if she shall live-my name." "O. Jim, that I should instead," cried out the boy in blue. "Her heart bleid when you ran away, and now 'twill break for you." The gen'ral passed, but held him fast; said he, "A spy, I guess. When I saw 'the life' of you, there'll be one Yankee less." N AV, general, this is little Jim, my mother's boy. I promised me, I swore it, that I promised her, I swore it, sir, that I'd be true to him; Then when I've covered him with earth, my last good-by, Just tell her mischief don't be amiss—"for Baby Jim I die." The general spoke, with hush throat, and eyes a little blurred: "You'd better take the news yourself—by your side, and up your word. Here, take this pass, and up the grass, here's compells of mine; Tell 'Fighting Joe' he'll have a need of you when he strikes my fighting line." CARVED on a board, they read, who pass: "To Baby Jim the brave." When phantom warriors, their盟歌 sing, above his home, they're living still, the hearts that thrill to hear the story old. Where phantom feet go down the street, phantom warriors bold; No sound of just their lips are mute, but shades of heresy come; As once they came, with hearts afame, to bugle, fife and drum; The years go by, with laugh and sigh, but no tears; When Daddy donned the blue, my lads, and Baby Jim the gray! What Soldiers Liked. No matter how serious the situation nor how near to death the soldiers were, they were always able to exchange a few jokes and to see the comic side of life. As evidence it is related that while in camp at Memphis, Tenn., a great flood came on and the camp of the Union soldiers was put very largely under water. It was the custom of the soldiers to dig large holes in the ground, for disposal of the waste from the camp, and these were covered over, but at the time of the flood the water prevented the passerby from seeing the covering. It was just at this time that Dr. David Evans, whose home was at Boston, below Richmond, and who was a surgeon, made his appearance in a handsome new suit of clothes and went out to visit a certain portion of the camp. In doing so he unfortunately landed on top of one of the waste pits, with the result that he, fell through, his new clothes were ruined and he had to stand for a great deal of joking. Like 30 Cents. "So you proposed to Miss Clover top, eh?" remarked the village postmaster. "When do the wedding bells ring?" "The bells have been muffled," replied the rural carrier, with a large open-faced sigh. "Her answer to my proposal made me feel like fifteen ounces of first-class matter." "First-class matter!" echoed the p. m. "Yes," said the carrier." "Letter postage at two cents an ounce, you know." Here is the tertest Memorial day sermon that was ever preached. A Kansas old soldier was asked the other day for an early day Kansas Memorial reminiscence. Tell me something that has heart and color in it, he was asked. "Oh, I don't remember any," he answered. "I might if I thought it over. Just the other day I was going over the roster of my post. There are still twenty-five members. Thirty-seven members are out in the graveyard."

CANTY-RICE CAIRO, ILL, AND MINNEAPOLIS, The main auditorium, which is constructed on beautiful architectural lines, was, handsomely trimmed with beautiful silk flags and huge masses of ferns and palms, showing the most conspicuous parts of the decorator's art. The hour of the day that the museum is open, p.m., long before that, imposes throats of people had packed the edifice to its utmost capacity, and large numbers were crowded into every aisle as long as they could get standing room. The ushers were forced to use every available space to be placed on the line of carriages and automobiles that were tested to the fact that it was an event of more than usual importance. Promptly at 8 o'clock the bridal party arrived at the church, and as the doors were opened the sweet strains of the Flower Song, by Lohengrin, were rendered by Mrs. Charles Grey, the pianist. The procession slowly marched down the aisle to the altar. First came the ring-bearer, Master Wendell Gibbs, dressed in white, carrying in his hand a large American hat. The procession which was concealed the wedding ring. Then came Miss Helen Rice, sister of the bride, the maid of honor, then Miss Virginia Lee, who was second bridesmaid, followed by the bride. Then the bride's mother, Mrs. Grey, and the matrons of honor, Meadness Jasper Gibbs and Jennie Watson. The bride was met at the altar by the groom and his attendants, who entered the church from a door near the altar. As soon as the bethrothed pair were side by side, Rev. T. J. Meadness forward and proceeded to read the ceremony which should bind two souls together as one. As soon as the last words were uttered the grand tones of Mendesohn's wedding came paired with the newly married pair, who were followed by the best man, Mr. Jasper Gibbs, Jr., and Miss Helen Rice, Miss Virginia Lee, Miss Pope and Miss Virginia Lee, Miss bride's mother and matrons of honor. On leaving the church the bridal party entered their carriage and were rapidly whirled to ethily residence, where a reception was held in the church, with the bride was brilliantly lighted throughout, and the air was redent with the perfume of the cut flowers, which were profusely scattered about in the various rooms. The lower floor of the church was the room of the guests, with Mrs Moses Samuels of Chicago, the ladies of the Dorcas Society of Bethesda Baptist Church, of which Mrs, Ophelia Rice is president, assisting in the receiving of fifteen persons, who relied on fifteen persons were served at one time. The beautiful and useful gifts received by the bride were displayed on the second floor, where they were displayed on the wall of the bride, also Mrs, Fannie Lee.

She has lived in this city all of her life and belongs to one of the oldest and most highly respected families of the city. The groom is a native of Cairo, Ill. He's a first-class chef on the "Soo," having held this position for several years.

MINES AND BURIED TREASURES DISCOVERED The mineral wealth of the South has hardly been scratched. Untold millions of gold and copper mines await the fortunate men who discover their true location. A wonderful instrument called the Spanish Magnetic Needle has recently been introduced with wonderful accuracy in discovering both mines and treasures. The interchangeable parts designed for use in mines are mineral mineral sought for. Lost and buried treasures of money, gold and silver, are found. Prospectors use these needles, but in the past they have been very difficult to use. The Prospectors' Ministry of Palmyra, Pa, handle a complete one of these needles and other mineral needles, but not with anyone interested in the subject. They issue a large catalogue which can be to anyone writing them. Address P. & Agency, 119 Second St. Palmyra, Pa. ST. PAUL MINN. An Open Letter. Mr. Editor: While in a reminiscent mood, recently, I was reminded that THE APPEAL was started in the year 1855 and therefore will pass the 25th milestone of its existence this year. What a number of interesting events have taken place during these twenty-five years, what wonderful advancements have been made by the Afro-American citizens of the Twin Cities in all lines of life! And as I was one of its early promoters and know much of its history, I believe it is no small thing a newspaper to live for a quarter of a century under the circumstances which it has surrounded THE APPEAL, and it is to me that some sort of celebration of the would be eminently fit and proper. I also believe that the citizens of the Twin Cities whom you have served so faithfully and well would gladly join in making the event one long to be remembered. --- My idea is that a souvenir edition of THE APPEALE be published containing a chronological history of the events that have transpired during its existence, cuts and sketches of prominent men and women, cuts of the beautiful homes that so many have become the happy possessors of and numerous other matters of interest that would make such an edition a most valuable one for us all. Then as a grand finale a public testimonial celebration in some large hall on the anniversary day of THE APPEALS' bith or such other day that in your judgment is more suitable, in which all may take a part in making the event one of the largest ever held here. I would suggest, if the idea meets your approval, that you select a number of persons to act as a committee to carry out such plans as I have advanced or as you may deem most advisable. St. Paul, April 15, 1900. My Dept. Admins: In relation to the Quarte-Corti-Italian It good and you may depend upon me for any assistance I can give. I am, Minneapolis, Minn. May 4, 1910. My Dear Mr. Adams: Several weeks ago I read an open letter in THE APPEAL, which suggested a celebration of its 25th anniversary. It is the right thing to do, and I am heartily in favor of it. Having been a reader of your paper ever since it was first published, and a sincere admirer of the tenacity with which you have held on to the life of your journal, supplying a demand no others have been able to fill. I believe it is an obligation the whole community owes you, and that you justly deserve recognition and merit whatever form the occasion may present. I shall be pleased to render any assistance in my power to give. Yours very truly, Ione E. Gibbs. Pres. Afro-Amer. W. S. Federation. Very few of the newspapers of our race can show a record of twenty-five years' existence and as THE APPEAL has that distinction we of the Northwest are very proud of it. It is the only paper we have in the state and its Quarto-Centennial celebration is quite in order. Count me to do all in my power to help make it a great success. Respectfully. Frederick C. Nelson. 259 Seventh Ave. North. St. Paul, Minn., May 20, 1910. Cosmopolitan Mutual Casualty Co., City. Gentlemen: I wish to thank the company for the splendid and prompt service rendered to my father, Allen A.

That a Negro gave Moses the principles of the Mosaic law, and by the marriage, of his daughter to the world's greatest law-giver, proved the intimate relations and high-standing of the Negro in the affairs of the Bible is given historical proof according to a work just published by the Bible Publishing Company, of Moravian Falls, N. C., and written by Dr. Arthur T. Abernethy, Dr. Abernethy, who is the author of a three volume history of New York, and several other historical works of international recognition was, during the life of King Leopold, a personal friend of the King and is the author of a book on the Congo Free State, dealing with his extensive study of the conditions of the colored races in various parts of the world. The importance of the historical work just issued by the When the Day is Done The man is happiest who finds at home a thoughtful wife, a cordial welcome and a restful, refreshing glass of Hamm's BEER "Leads Them All" THEO. HAMM BREWING CO. St. Paul, Minn. Dixie Publishing Co., is increased by the fact that it is written by a white man who is famous on both sides of the water and who deals with the subject without fear or favor. Dr. Abernethy is one of the one hundred American authors elected by the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and by birth a Southern man. The book which is entitled: "The Jew a Negro," proves by Jewish historians and copious quotations from the Old and New Testament, that the Negroes occupied the highest positions in Bible times, and are the direct descendants of Moses, Abraham, David, Solomon, and the other patriarchs. It goes farther and declares that these great Biblical characters were colored men, and reasons it out with the historical daring and evidence which ought to make every ambitious colored person want to read the book. This book is printed on the best book paper, bound in cloth and can be procured from the above mentioned publisher by mail for 50 cents.
