PIPING OIL FROM THE PACIFIC TO THE ATLANTIC
VOL. 26. NO. 23.
O
N December 15, 1898, the waters of the Pacific ocean, for the first time in all history, mingled with the waters of the Atlantic coast the lusitmus of Panama. It was not, however, through the great canal that this occurred, but through the oil pipe line of the Union Oil company of California, which was being tested with sea water, under a pressure of 800 pounds, before being put in service. The installation of the only pipe line connecting the two oceans has invested considerable interest everywhere, not only because it was the only large pipe line in the tropics at the time, but because it opened the eastern market for the first time to California oil. The Union Oil company of California was founded in 1890 by Pennsylvania oil men who had been established in the business in California since 1882. Its headquarters were at Los Angeles until 1908 and its directors are Los Angeles business men of the highest character for probity and honesty and business energy. The president, Mr. Lyman Stewart, is well known as a plenianthropist as well as a far-sighted business man and to him is due the entire burden of holding the company together and bringing it safely through the rocks and shoals of the early days of the oil business in California and the great panic of 1893. The company has been doing a
large business on the east coast in high-grade standardized asphaltum for many years and as it was necessary to ship the products of their California refineries across the continent or around the inland in order to get them to the market, they leased a crude pipe line across the isthmus and end the crude pipe down the coast from California in their steamers, and then up the Atlantic coast to New York or Philadelphia, where it could be defined.
The laying of the line and construction of the pump stations was intrusted to Mr. R. W. Fenn, A. S. C. E., who had not only been with the company for many years, but had also lived in a number of the South American republics and was accustomed to the health conditions and to handling native and Jamaican labor. Six months' time was given the company under their concession of the United States government, dating from January 10, 1906. Mr. Fenn was given about 50 minutes to get readied, traced and reached New York in time to take the boat sailing February 2, 1906, for Colon, without men or plans, with plenty of money.
On April 16 the pipe laying was commenced and the line was completed on October 16—six months to a day—but the time had been extended by the government in order to allow for preliminary arrangements. Mr. S. T. McElfresh of Pittsburgh, Pa., was in immediate charge of the pipe-laying gangs. The progress of the work was watched with great interest by all who saw it. The pipe laying had been made by everybody about the worthless joint manners that the laying of this pipe line was objected to on the subject. The gangs contained, each, about 70 men and were divided into sections. First name the "brushers," cutting all the grass and brush, followed by the "stringers," who laid the pipe in line, end to end. The next division removed the thread protectors and painted the threads with a preparation of oil and graphite. The pipe-laying gang proper consisted of the men who handled the lifting jacks, jack boards and chain tongs, five men on each of four pairs of long-handed lay tongs. Another section lifted the pipe with pick-ups and the pipe steeler lined up it so that the object leason enter properly, while the joint was twiried by the friction of a length of rope passed around it several times and drawn back and forth until the pipe would enter no further in the collar without the aid of the tongs.
The foreman then sat astir the collar and beat time with his hammer, while the tongsmen "broke out"—two tongs up and two down, with the precision of a military drill. After the joint was in place the painters did their work and put on the second coat of paint, the first having been applied when the pipe left the shops, to prevent rust forming in transit.
An important feature of the gang organization was the employment of a confidential man, who spent all his time going from gang to another and watching to see that the orders covering the treatment of the blacks were properly carried out by the foremen.
As the Jamaicans are simply great, overgrown children, they are easily discouraged by hazing or injustice and quite as easily encouraged by jolling. One may swear at them all he wants provided he has their confidence and, on the other hand, a big, well-trained gang can be scattered in order to be sure he understands, as their intellect is not well developed and they are so anxious to please that they will always answer, "Yes, sah," and start off without knowing what they are going to do.
It is hard to realize all of the difficulties which presented themselves during the work. The Panama railroad was in the act of double tracking its line and canal construction was going on every day, and the railway had places on both sides of the railway and tracks were being shifted and plans being constantly changed all along the line. There was no wagon road across the lsthmus and it was necessary to

high-grade and as it near Cott. or around, ket, they mus and dodge the heavy dirt-train traffic continual- first when distributing the pipe, and later when moving material.
Besides this the work commenced with the beginning of the rainy season and was completed before it ended. In one place the men worked through the pouring rain for three weeks up to their waists in the swamp, part of the time on a floating platform or raft of boards, and laid the line in one place on a floating raft of logs a mile long, as there was no bottom.
The following additional description of the line is quoted from the Canal Record, the official organ of the canal commission, with a few slight corrections of errors in connection with mechanical features:
By the first of January, 1909, practically all of the stationary boilers in the service of the Isthmian Canal commission will be using crude oil as fuel. It is estimated that the actual saving to the commission by substituting oil for coal will be at least 65 per cent. Coal is now delivered to the Isthmus by the Panama Railroad company for $6.35. On a commercial basis a barrel of the oil delivered the commission will generate as much steam as a quarter ton of coal and as the oil costs 90 cents a barrel, the saving from a fuel point alone will be 65 per cent. In addition to this the fixed expenses, such as wages of firemen, etc., are considerably less.
Oil is delivered on the isthmus by the Union Oil company of California, under a concession granted January 10, 1906, for the construction and operation of a pipe line from the Pacific to the Atlantic side of the isthmus over land owned by the United States and the Panama Railroad company. This company had previously obtained, under date of October 30, 1905, a similar concession from the government of Panama for the construction and maintenance of a pipe line from the Pacific to the Atlantic side of the isthmus for the crude oil and for the erection of pumping stations and storage tanks in the cities of Panama and Colon. The license granted by the secretary of war is revocable at the will of the government of the United States and is conditioned upon the payment of $500 United States currency a month, beginning August 1, 1906, into the Canal Zone treasury, the fund thus created to be set aside for the support of the public schools of the Canal State. It is further stipulated in the grant that if the Panama Railroad company may commission the Panama Railroad company to pump oil from the Union Oil company of California at 90 cents United States currency a barrel. In addition to the monthly payment of $500 to the treasury of the Canal Zone, the Union Oil company also pays $250 to the government of Panama and is subject to the usual Canal Zone taxes.
The oil delivered on the isthmus comes from Santa Barbara county, Cal.
Its consistency is about the same as water and it can be transported in a pipe line as readily. It is piped from the field to Port Harford, where it is pumped into the Union Oil company's tank steamers, which are serving points in Oregon, Hickory, Hickory, Chile and Guatemala, as well as Panama. The steamers are storage tanks in the Canal Zone, four at La Boca entrance and three at Mt Hope, near Colon. Each tank has a capacity of 750,000 barrels. An eight tank of like capacity, formerly located at Mt Hope, was destroyed by lightning on May 13, 1908.
The pipe line through which the oil is pumped to the Atlantic side of the isthmus follows the line of the Panama railroad and is about 48 miles long. It is made of open-hearth steel pipe, eight inches thick, with intervals and without expansion joints. The pipe holds 15,000 barrels of oil. From sea level to

TAK AT MOUNT HOPE STEUR BY LIGHTNING 12.000 BARRELS OF OIL BURNING
The summit near Culebra the total lift is about 225 feet. At the summit the line runs along the edge of the Rio Grande reservoir and at this point is encased in concrete, so that if the pipe should break the water would not be affected. It is tested to 800 pounds to the square inch, but a pressure of over 300 pounds is seldom used.
A Dow compound pump, driven by steam from boilers in which crude oil is used, furnishes the pressure to pump the oil across the isthmus and about 80 hours are consumed in the journey. The oil is so inelastic that it can be ascertained by the pulse in the plant at La Boca at what more than 100 years ago, the valve of the tank at Mt. Hope has been closed. The pressure is higher than the force of the ground. It follows rather a serpentine course and the many curves help to overcome the expansion due to changes in temperature.
The company was given 180 days in which to lay its pipe. This was at a time when the work involved not only engineering features, but also those of providing subsistence and quarters for the men engaged. The laying of the pipe was begun in several places simultaneously and a large force of men was kept constantly at work, so that the company was ready to deliver oil October 16, 1906, although the line was not used throughout its entire length until November 14, 1906.
On account of changes in the line of the Panama Railroad company and in that of the canal itself the pipes have been shifted at many places and, according to the contract, all this work is done at the expense of the Union Oil Company.

In ten thousands of Austrian families girls and young women that formerly prepared for a career with the needle, thereby often digging for themselves an early grave, are now getting ready to embrace the better paid professions, formerly monopolized by man. Since training schools are open to women, the Vienna correspondent of the Boston Post writes, masses of them decided to engage in electricity, architecture, engineering and similar pursuits.
A number of Vienna girls have declared that they will go in for bridge building, others want to build machinery and if the enthusiasm keeps up tailoresses and shirtwist and lingerie factories will soon be hard up for hands.
It is remarked on all sides that the opening of the schools to girls came none too soon, for the sedentary women of Austrian women were condemned resulted in a less accepting grace. Now that Austrian girls, like the women girls, can make the best of their opportunities it is expected that our womanhood will be stronger and more beautiful than ever.

Servian Crown Prince to Wed Turkish. Sultan's Daughter.
Union Between the Royal Houses Aranged—Young Man Was Reported Having Designs on an American Helress.
Belgrade. — In the announcement which has just been made of the engagement between the crown prince of Servia and Princess Schadls Sultana, fourth daughter of ex-Sultan Abdul Hamid of Turkey, no one can find a signification of the impending union of two loving hearts, or anything approaching the romantic. These two young persons, who are one day to be man and wife, have never even seen each other, the prospective bride being a Turkish lady of high degree, who is seen by no one outside her own household until her wedding day.
The affair is fixed up by the father and uncle of the principal parties to it during the visit of King Peter of Servia to the fortune of Turkey and real significance is the fortune of the fact that by allowing his niece to the wife of the future king of Servia the sultan acknowledges the Karageorghv family to be of equal rank with his own. This family of lengthy and cacophonous nomenclature has had what literally may be called a mushroom growth, for only as far back as
Crown Prince George.
1804 the founder of the dynasty was a swineherd. Servia was a part of the Turkish empire originally, but about that time it rose and the swineherd it was who won independence for his kingdom, and was set upon the throne as its first king.
The crown prince of Servia, as is probably known, is the second son of the present king of Servia, the eldest

son having been forced by his father to renounce his claim to the throne owing to his wild and dissipated life. Prince Alexander is a much quieter youth, though one wonders rather what his opinion is on the subject of his unseen bride. Her veiled picture seems to show that she is an extremely beautiful girl.
The report was spread in the United States several months ago that the crown prince and his brother intended to visit that country this summer and would try to win the hand of some wealthy American girl, who would exchange her millions for the title of Queen of Servia.
It was said that a special envoy had gone to Washington to arrange for Prince George's introduction to a Chicago heiress who has several millions at her command and will have more in the event of the death of her mother. The announcement immediately denied and the announcement that the man who claimed to be the royal matchmaker is not even known to the crown prince.
Tea Tippling In Ireland.
Some interesting sidelights on the life of the peasantry in Ireland are contained in the reports of the inspectors of national schools, which have lately been issued. The report says: "The use of tea is now carried to such dangerous excess that it ranks before alcohol as an enemy of the public health. To aggravate the situation it is in the very poorest parts of the country that the tea evil is most accomodated. It is only the cheap sorts of tea that really cause poor people; and, let the quality be or bad, the tea is so prepared for use that the liquid, when drunk, has the properties of a slow poison. The tea pot stewing on the hearth all day long is kept literally on tap; the members of the family, young as well as old, resorting to it at discretion."

WILL MARRY AN AMERICAN
Miss Mathilde Townsend, Heirress, Whose Hand Was Sought by Nobility, Accepts New Yorker.
New York.—After having been courteed by at least half a dozen foreign noblemen, Miss Mathilde Townsend of Washington has rejected all of them in favor of young Peter Goelet Gerry, second son of Commodore Eldridge T. Gerry of this city. Mrs. Richard Townsend, the young woman's mother, has not yet formally an-
nounced the engagement. It is presumed that the wedding will take place late in June.
Since her debut in Washington society a few years ago Miss Townsend has been constantly in print. Celebrated not only for her own wealth and beauty, but as the granddaughter of the late Col. Thomas Scott, the young woman was immediately engaged to the duke of Alba. The duke was questionably a fervid sutor, but he gave way to Craig Wadsworth, secretary of the American embassy in London, and for a year a marriage between them was confidently predicted. Mr. Wadsworth had a rival in the person of the Count D'Adhame, who was been most frequently named in Washington reports of late as the lady man. Mr. Townsend's choice of Mr. Gerry had to be more recent than the German embassy ball of March 29, when the beauty-tournament was monopolized by Mr. Wadsworth. Mr. Gerry is the brother of Robert Livingston Gerry, who married E. H. Harriman's daughter, Cornelia. He was graduated from Harvard in 1901.

Cardinal Ferrari, Archbishop of Milan Praises This Country's Attitude Toward Religion.
Milan—Cardinal Ferrari, archbishop of Milan, like the reigning pope, is a man of the people. He has risen to his present great position by sheer force of intellect aid character. A tall man, of majestic bearing, with white hair escaping from his scarlet zubah, his face is powerful, but marked with deep lines of suffering. It is the face of strength who has battled and been victorious.
"I am very glad to see you," he said smiling, "and I can tell you at once that America interests me intensely. Archbishop Ireland is one of my personal friends. Whenever he passes through Milan he stays with me. America is the land of liberty, and I value liberty above all else. The American people have the sense of freedom born in them; they understand that the opinions and the others ought not only to be tolerated and treated with respect.
"There are the Irishmen in America that, I take it, there must be considerable interest there in the political position in England. I may say that I have followed the developments with the greatest interest, and the
prospect gives me unbounded hope, be cause it promises a triumph for liberty I hope to see the day when the idea of Gladstone may be realized and Ire land enjoy the benefits of home rule."
An appeal is being made. Johannsburg to finance a treasure-hunting expedition. The treasure is the supposed hoard of old Chief Sekkunai, who is believed to have buried it in a certain cave in 1879. The story goes that the treasure consists of two big skins full of sovereigns and a pot of gold that connects with the burring of the old native, and funds are being asked for in order to furnish the expedition.

TRAINING DOG COPS
How Berlin's Canine Police Are Taught Their Duty.
Clever Four-Legged Detectives Display Remarkable Intelligence in the Running Down of Violators of the Law.
Berlin—Good detectives are rare and correspondingly expensive. Hence a police administration conducted with due regard to economy could scarcely afford to employ a veritable Sherlock Holmes if he could be found. Ordinary detectives if he could not cope successfully with the highly developed and refined methods of the modern criminal. The police authorities, confronted with this dilemma, have lately employed, to a limited extent, an auxiliary possessed of instincts which take the place of detective genius. This auxiliary is the law enforcer, which, in Berlin at least, is giving elaborate proof of the fitness for detective and police work. The training and practice of these four-legged guardians of the peace are most interesting to witness.
One morning the writer was conducted by Police Major Klein, the organizer and commander of the canine police force of Berlin, to a public garden in the suburbs. Here we found assembled a number of men of the police selected from the general body of police and a especial reference to their liking for living in the grass lay the dogs attached to the western police station—gauney, wild animals with shrew faces, of the German sheep dog breed. We took seats and the drill commenced. The dogs were required to give tongue at a signal and to lie still at assigned stations, until the trainer, moving away from them, summoned them by a call full speed. Even when running at full speed the dogs stopped and lay down at the word of command of the dogs leaped a seven-foot fence with ease, even when they carried heavy objects in their mouths. The

next test of obedience was the refusal of food. A dog was chained to a tree and ordered to guard some object, such as a bunch of keys. When I cautiously fished for the treasure with my cane the dog rushed at me savagely, tugging at his chain, growling and gnashing his teeth. An appetizing bit of message that I had offered to distract the dog was regettively sniffed at and then temptedly ignored. The experiment was repeated with all the dogs with the same result. Frack the champion of the corps and the winner of many prizes, did not even turn his nose toward the sausage.
One of the officers then beckoned to Grete and directed her, by a gesture, to search for something hidden in a churn of the garden. Back the back of the garden. Grete followed, indicated direction and soon returned with a two-mark piece in her mouth.
After witnessing these specimens of school work we went out into the open fields to see the dogs track and arrest supposed criminals. A crowd of curious onlookers had already collected. A young man, who subsequently proved an uncommon tame and stupid malefactor, was enveloped in a heavy, padded leather coat, which showed the marks of numerous dog bites, and directed to lay a trail by walking across a meadow and then to be seen himself. Several other trails had been taken across the same field. A striking action was then witnessed. Frack and another dog followed all of the trails, bringing back a handkerchief from one of them, and finally traced and discovered the criminal and sprang upon him, but released him instantly at their master's command. The sight made me shoulder. These wise and faithful animals could save savage and ravenous beasts when duty demanded. They always seize their victim by the throat or the wrist, and a wild pistol shot only redoubts their zeal and ferocity. The poor fellow who impersonated the criminal was bathed in sweat, which was not due solely to his leather coat.

OH, YE HYPOCRITS.
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

President Talirkield of Howard University, the Boston delegation and every British delegate entered vigorous protest against the action, but the Congress as a body paid no attention to the protests and the resolutions adopted while setting forth that the highest aim and mission of the Sunday school is to teach the Bible to all people and all lands and deploying the evils of the liquor traffic among the backward races, etcetera etcetera, ad nauseam, the resolutions closed with commendation of the local committee.
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.
A Southern journal, not one of the idiotic, backwoods class, but one published in a large, progressive and flourishing city, prints the following: "In accepting an invitation to deliver an address at the dedication of the John Brown battlefield at Osawatonie, Kan., next August, Mr. Roosevelt says in his letter to Governor Stubbs: 'That is an occasion on which I shall really be glad to speak in Kansas.' Southerners who are long on Roosevelt admiration might do well to sell about August 1." A hightoned Southern can see nothing heroic in John Brown and still resents what he did a half century ago. Time has made no abatement of that resentment. Still the Southern is very indignant because the North cannot be convinced that Wirz was an amiable Christian gentleman. It makes a great difference whose ox is gored. History repeats itself.

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.
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.

Mrs. Russell Sage's decision to devote a large part of her great fortune to establishing throughout the country facilities whereby the honest poor man can borrow money in emergency at fair rates of interest marks an undertaking of merit.

ELECTRICAL NOTES.
There are 6,300 electric lights on the Mauretania. Venezuela is establishing wireless stations and using American apparatus. Though heat will make a solid or liquid incandescent, it can only increase the pressure of a gas. Chicago is to have the biggest electric plant in existence this side of the aurora borealis. Professor Blondel of Paris has made improvements in the wireless telephone which makes conversation possible at a distance of 400 kilometers. Storage battery street cars weighing but five tons, as compared with the ten tons of the ordinary trolley cars, are being tried out in New York. A cent's worth of electricity, at the average price in this country, will raise ten tons 12 feet high with a crane in less than a minute.
Originally made merely for ornamentation, electric light shades now are designed along purely scientific lines to diffuse or reflect the light with the greatest economy.
An electric elevator has been installed in the stairway which leads to the cupola of St. Peter's cathedral in Rome. The elevator has a capacity for carrying ten persons. It bears an appropriate Latin inscription.
A new safe is made to revolve within in the recess in a wall by an electric motor, its German inventor's idea being to prevent burglars having time enough to drill any particular spot on its surface.
Electricity, which picks the tiny atoms of aluminum from the ore deposits, has made the metal possible to the commercial world, and in return aluminum now ranks next to copper as the most desirable metal for electrical machinery.
WELDING BY ELECTRIC ARC
Its Success Has Led to Formation of Three Companies in Different Parts of Sweden.
The success of welding by electric arc has led to the formation of three welding companies, in different parts of Sweden, and at one Gothenburg has placed its plant on an old barge that can be towed alongside any steamer needing repairs. The outfit, as described by A. Scott Younger, includes a small marine boiler with a De Laval turbine, working two direct current dynamos. Duplicate cables can reach on board the steamer and to the inside of the boilers if necessary, and make it practicable to do repairs in two places at once. One end of the barge has a workshop, with anvil and vise benches and a full equipment for small repairs. The anvil block is a steel slab $10\%$ inches wide by $2\%$ deep, supported on two wooden trestles, and the negative from the dynamo is clamped to it, the positive being the holder — with insulated handle held in the operator's left hand. The current passes through the jaws holding the specially prepared rod—three-sixteenths inch in diameter—used for welding. The pieces to be welded with chamfered edges are secured in position on the anvil block, the rod is touched to the point to be welded and slightly withdrawn, and the electric arc thus formed quickly melts the end of the rod, causing a drop from it to adhere to the work. This is hammered and the process repeated. A great variety of work can be done, and in butt welding a practical rate for three-eighth-inch plates is about ten feet an hour.

socket and globe protected by putting a funnel upside down on the supply wire as shown in the sketch, writes H. D. Harkins in Popular Mechanics. The wire and small end of the funnel were well taped to make it waterproof. This not only served well the purpose for which it was intended, but the funnel made a good reflector.
So-Called Dry Battery. The so-called dry battery is an electric cell really containing a liquid or paste whose drying out—as on standing on a shelf—destroys the usefulness of the battery; but a unique new battery cell, called the anhydrous, is dry until put to use, so that it may be kept in store indefinitely without depreciation. It simply contains the necessary chemicals in a dry state. A little water poured through a special opening puts it in action, and then, beginning perfectly new and fresh, it serves the usual purpose of the "dry" battery.
ELECTRIC POWER FROM WIND
Form of Energy Which Costs Nothing
to Produce, but Unfortunately
Not Controllable
Wind power is a form of energy which costs nothing to produce, but this advantage is seriously diminished by the fact that wind is not under human control, blowing or ceasing to blow regardless of the tasks depending upon it. The possibility, however, of combining the power of the wind, when it wills to blow, with specially governed dynamos and batteries in such manner that this erratic power
Mounted on a London Shop. can be transformed into a perfectly steady flow of current available for use at any moment, may mean a future for the windmill that its centuries of usage in the past could never reach.
The windmill shown in the first illustration is on a shop in London and is constructed on principles calculated to utilize the energy of wind currents of varying force and direction in the most efficient manner, says Popular Mechanics. The turbine is mounted on a light steel tower on the roof of the workshop. The power is transmitted by worm gear from the shaft or axle of the wind wheel to a vertical shaft which is carried down the steel tower. At the lower end of the vertical shaft is an ordinary pulley of large diameter, and this is joined up by belt to the electric generator or dynamo, mounted vertically on a swinging bracket, which has an arrangement of heavy weights attached so that the driving belt is always automatically maintained at driving tension. The speed variation of the dynamo ranges from 800 to 1,600 revolutions per minute, the total gear ratio between the wind wheel and the dynamo pulley being about 3 to 1.
The regulation of the dynamo is effected by a series of electro-magnetic contacts. These contacts come into operation successively as the speed of

When the wind ceases to such an extent that the power generated is not enough to force current into the battery the connection is automatically broken until the wind rises again. A wind of about six miles an hour causes current to be generated, and the plant has been tested up to a gale of 60 miles an hour with perfect regulation. The power generated increases enormously, of course, as the wind increases. The second illustration shows a self-contained plant, with dynamo room and battery room built into the bottom of the tower.
Experimenting With Cement.
In experimenting with the use of cement for the construction of tanks designed to receive wines in storage, it was found that when unlined tanks were used the acids in the liquid often decomposed the cement and the walls absorbed the freshness and "bouquet" of the wine. Acid-proof coatings were applied to the concrete walls, but did not prevent absorption. However, a lining consisting of small squares of glass, joined with cement mortar, is said to have given satisfaction, as a tartar forms on the thin surface of cement and resists acid attacks. The lined tanks are made in sizes which contain from 530 to 66,000 gallons, and are recommended not only for storing wines, but also for storing cotton seed and other oils.
Axie Train Lighting System. A new axle train lighting system has recently been devised, in which the generator is located in the baggage car of the train. The generator is placed in the body of the car, where it is open to inspection at any time, and it is driven by belts from the axle of one of the trucks. The belts are made self-adjusting, so as to take up slack due to the flexing of the springs. A storage battery which is charged by the dynamo serves to furnish current for the lights when the train is standing still.
What Asbestos Is
Asbestos, that singular substance which can be carded like wool and formed into fire-proof cloth or paper, belongs to the horn-blende type of minerals, and in some respects forms a kind of link between the vegetable and animal kingdom. It is at once fibrous and crystalline, elastic and brittle, heavy as rock in the crude state, yet light as thistledown when mechanically treated.

Dr. Booker T. Washington will address the State Federation of Afro-American Women's Clubs at St. James A. M. E. church next Wednesday afternoon, June 8.
He will deliver the Commencement address at the Macalester College Commencement exercises at Central Presbyterian church at 10 o'clock in the morning, and is one of the speakers at the dinner which immediately follow the event.
The Federation was extremely fortunate, through the efforts of Mr. Francis, in being able to secure Dr. Washington's services in the afternoon, as he leaves on an early evening train for Chicago, and several of the strong organizations of the city were striving to secure his time while here.
There will be no opportunity to hold a formal public reception to Dr. Washington on this visit, such as was given him on his last visit, but the ladies of the Federation will hold an informal reception in his honor at the close of the afternoon exercises at the church.

U. B. F. AND S. M. T. AGAINST W.
F. BLEDSOE ET AL.
The Official Decision of the District
Court of Tarrant County, Texas,
Sixty-seventh Judicial District—
True State of the Case.
Upon the hearing of the motion to dispose the temporary writ of injunction heretofore issued in this case, it is the opinion of the Court from the opinions of the petition of the defendants 'answer and from the evidence:
That the charges were preferred against W. F. Bledsoe and F. W. Gross as set forth in plaintiff's petition as shown by the evidence introduced on the hearing; that after due notice to the said W. F. Bledsoe and F. W. Gross, they were duly and regularly testified in testimony heard and considered and found guilty; that the charges upon which they were tried were offences against the constitution and by-laws of the order and subjected them to the penalties inflicted, to-wit; removal from office and suspension and removal from Lodge, and from the order; that the proceedings of said trial were had before the tribunal provided for in the Constitution of the order, and known as the National Grand Executive Committee, which had jurisdiction to weigh and determine the matters in evidence and the proceedings of the said Committee were subsequently heard, approved and ratified by the National Grand Lodge in regular session and duly approved and ratified by that body.
That the defendant, W. F. Bledsoe, colluded with Walter M. Farmer and others for the purpose of seeding from plaintiff National Grand Lodge, as alleged in plaintiff petition, and that the defendant, Walter M. Farmer, orate an independent National Grand Lodge, known by the name of the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of Mysteryful Ten of the M. Farmer, selected the defendant, Walter M. Farmer, an independent National Grand Master, and the defendant W. F. Bledsoe, National Grand Treasurer, and that all of the other defendants have ratified the acts of the said Farmer and Bledsoe in seeding from plaintiff and seeding such independent organization.
That the said W. F. Bledsoe, F. W. Gross and all of the other defendants herein have thrown off allegiance to plaintiff and National Grand Officers, as alleged in plaintiff's petition, and joined in an effort to establish the said Walter M. Farmer as National Grand Master, and to persuade and induce the membership of the order in the State of Texas to recognize the said Walter M. Farmer as such National Grand Master, acting by and through such independent chartered institution incorporated in August, 1900.
*That since 1908 the defendants, W. F. Bledsoe, F. W. Gross, Joseph Nicholas and D. H. Starks, have been attempting wrongfully to act under the authority of the said Walter M. Farmer, and have been wrongfully receiving and causing to be distributed to the membership in Texas a pass word made up and sent out by an officer of any Farmer, who is not an officer of any Farmer, who is not make up and send out said pass word, and that this is in violation of plaintiff's Constitution and By-Laws.
That said Bledsoe, Gross, Nichols and Starkes have been collecting or causing to be collected from the members of the order, a National Grand per capita tax, under which the Constitution and By-Laws of the Order is provided for plaintiff National Grand amount, the amount so collected amounts to more than Orion ($1,000,00). Dollars, all of which has been diverted, misapplied and wrongfully spent, a part of which was paid out by order of the defendant Bledsoe in a collusive law suit between the said W. F. Bledsoe and Walter M. Farmer, which acts of misapplication have been assented to and accused by the other defendants herein and by the other defendants have been alleged action under the authority of the said Farmer, who, according to the facts, is a usurper.
It is the opinion of the Court that all of the material and substantial allegations of the plaintiff's petition are true, and that the acts complained of have caused achisms, diversions, uncertainty and great confusion among the plaintiffs. The State of Texas, and the defendants are permitted to carry out and do the acts complained of it will result greatly in the order in the State of Texas, and will result in detaching the order of the United Brothers of Friendship and Sisters of Mysterious Ten of the State of Texas, from the regularly constituted Court of which W. A. Gaines is the duly and legally constituted National Grand Master and may result in great financial loss and injury to said order.
It is ordered, adjudged and decreed by the Court that the motion of the defendant herein filed to dissolve the injunction heretofore granted in this cause be, and the same is hereby overruled, but said injunction is hereby overruled, and the defendants, W. F. Bledsee, W. F. Gross, Nicholas D. A. Starks, Duffey Donifer, I. W. Jones, W. A. Younger, R. C. Houston, Jr., and Henry Williams and their agents, attorneys, representatives, deputies and probate be and are hereby prohibited making use of any quarterly password or any other pass-word created that may be made up and sent out in the future by the said Walter M. Farmer, or by the direction or authority of the said Walter M. Farmer, or the agents or representatives and that said persons having notice of this injunction, are hereby prohibited and en-

joined from receiving, using or promulgating any pass-word in said order emanating in the future from any person, other than W. A. Gaines, Nationally authorized, and his duly authorized representative; and that the said defendants are prohibited, enjoined, and restrained from withdrawing from plaintiff and setting up the said Texas organatizaton of the State of Texas in friendship and Sisters of Mysterious Trees rate and independent organization of plaintiff with W. A. Gaines as National Grand Master; and from doing anything whatever to persuade any of theordinate ledges and temples of the State of Texas or the Two APPAL
That said defendants are hereby enjoined from collecting and paying over to Walter M. Farmer or any person other than the regular National Grand Secretary of plaintiff, to-wit: M. R. Perry any of the funds that may be obtained by the plaintiff by way of National Grand per capita tax or otherwise.
VII.
That the said defendants, W. F. Bledsoe and F. W. Grosbear and are hereby enjoined from acting in the capacity of Grand Officers and pretending to hold themselves out as such to hold officers out of or attempting to gain admittance to any Grand Lodge meeting or any subordinate lodge or temple in the State of Texas, it being the opinion of the Court that said defendants were guilty of secession and rebellion against, and other conduct for which they have been tried and convicted, but themselves outside of the order in the State of Texas, and are no longer enlisted in recognition as officers or members.
viii
This injunction shall in no wise prevent the meeting of local lodges in the State of Texas and the members thereof in good standing of the usual and ordinary business pertaining to the order, provided that in no event shall any of the defendants herein or others having notice of this injunction be permitted to make use of any password that may be issued in the future, except such pass-word that may be authorized by the National Guard of militant, to wifi: W. A. Gaines, or by his authority; nor shall they recognize in any wise the authority of Walter M. Farmer, W. F. Bledsoe and F. W. Gross.

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 Atro-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 for a newspaper to live for a quarter of a century under the circumstances and indeed THE APPEAL, and it seems that gone sort of celebration of the event would be enlighten 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 APPEAL 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, 1910.
My Dear Mr. Adams: In relation to the Quarto-Centennial idea, I think it good and you may depend upon me for any assistance I can give. I am, Yours very truly.
Jose H. Sherwood.
Minneapolis, Minn., May 4, 1910.
My Dear Mr. Adams:
Several weeks ago I go to an open letter in THE APPEAL, which suggested a celebration of its 25th anniversary. It is the right thing to do, 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.
Ione E. Gibbs.
Pres. Afro-Amer. W. S. Federation.
Minneapolis, Minn., May 16.
Mr. Editor:
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 on me to do all in my power to help make it a great success,
Respectfully,
Frederick C. Nelson,
259 Seventh Ave. North.

The Negro's High Standing in the Bible.
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 highstanding 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.

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.
