BRITISH IN EGYPT
Many Opinions Regarding Rule of the English.
GIVEN FREE HAND BY POWERS
Country Improves Enormously Under British Occupation, But Is Still Far from Top—$50,000,000 of European Money Invested in Egypt.
(By Francis E. Clark, D. D. LL. D.)
President United Society of Christian Endeavor
The surface attractions of Calro and the Upper Nile are so great that one is tempted never to look beneath them. The impressive grandeur of the pyramids, the mystery of the sphinx, the kaleidoscopic streets of Cairo, where it is the most title of "bromidian" expressions to say, "The occident and orient meet," the awful ruins of Thebes and Luxor, all so compel the attention of the traveler that he almost ceases to regard Egypt as a nation that is making history today, and whose annals were not all closed when the last of the Pharaohs was buried. Egypt, to the unacustomed eye, seems like a perpetual, unending circus, and one is as unlikely to think of the part she is playing or is likely to

Add to this the fact that the great mass of the Americans
And yet Egypt to day is an important spoke in the wheel of the world's politics. She has close relations with Europe on one side and Africa on the other. England, France and Turkey are vitally interested in her welfare, and to a lesser extent, Germany, Austria and Italy. A spark may be struck in Egypt at any time that will involve all Europe in the conflagration of war, or she may be made a buffer state between European aggression and the colonies of Africa, which shall postpone or forever prevent the African question from becoming acute and warlike.
It must be said that the American, on this arrival in Cairo, is not apt to become embroiled over the outward aspects of British influence in Egypt. As he wanders into the inner squares and sees the unutterably dirty swarms of loathsome beggars, the filthy children—their eyes, and often their whole faces, black with cluster-

ing flies which they do not seem to have strength enough to brush away—he is inclined to say that a great Christian power, whose people lug their tin bath tub around with them into all parts of the world, after a quarter of a century of occupancy, might at least have cleaned up the streets of Egypt's chief city. But then, one has to remember how much flicker it used to be before the British bath tub came to Egypt, and that neither cleanliness nor goodliness can be imposed on a people from without.

The khedive is a kindly-faced young man, with a courteous bow for the stranger within his gates, and though he is said to be not very popular among his people, and is accused, like most eastern potentates, of making more money than his khedive-ship legitimately warrants, he probably does as well for his people as any man in his place, is likely to do. He frequently visits Paris, and is imbued with French ideals which he
It is no easy task to learn the truth about British rule in Egypt, even when you are in Cairo itself, for there are almost as many opinions and shades of opinions as there are men with whom you talk. It has been truly said that "most of the literature, which is the fair-minded observer's rough material, consists in journalistic attempts to blow either the
French, English or native trumpet, regardless of truth or falsehood.
But there are some things that the observer can see for himself. As he compares Egypt to day with what he can learn of her condition a quarter of a century ago, when the English occupation began, he learns that she has improved enormously, and that she is, beyond doubt, going up the hill of prosperity, however far she is from the top.
Egypt is probably the worst governed country in the world. In the first place, she is under the suzerainty of Turkey, and has to pay an annual tribute of between $3,000,000 and $100,000 to the sublime porte, for which she receives absolutely no material consideration in return. Then she has a native ruler and native laws of her own, and her khedive, the successor of a long line of Ottoman rulers, is something more than a figure head, but considerably less than a responsible executive. Then there are the British, the real rulers of Egypt since 1882, without whose permission the Egyptians cannot move hand or foot.
The international court settles all the troubles of foreigners in Egypt, over whom the native courts have no jurisdiction, which makes another complication in the administration of justice.
French, too, must be reckoned with, for though they have no shred of actual power left, during their practical domination of Egypt they impressed their customs, their language and their laws so deeply upon the

people that Egypt is still more French than English. Add to this the fact that the great mass of people are biogated and rabid. Aussumals, and that Moslem laws and prohibitions are more to them than the influence of English, French and all other Christian nations combined, and we can see in what a complicated state of semi-civilization the Egyptians manage to exist. The only wonder is that laws are ever administered, that justice is ever met out, and that the country is not in a perpetual state of anarchy. The explanation of the comparative good order and apparent contentment that exists is doubtless found in the khaik-clad English soldier, who is not over-conspicuous in the streets of Egypt, but is summoned every Egyptian knows could be summoned at a moment's notice to quell an imminent or to punish any gross violation of the law. Take away the aforesaid khaik-clad soldier, who is really the policeman of Egypt, and so far as one can see, the present confusion would be worse confounded, and the land of the

Pharaohs would slip on to the tombstone slide of ruin. The khediv is a kindly-faced young man, with a courteous bow for the stranger within his gates, and though he is said to be not very popular among his people, and is accused, like other Egyptians, of making more money than his khediv legitimately warrants, he probably does as well for his people as any man in his place is likely to do. He frequently visits Paris, and is imbued with French ideals which he finds it extremely difficult to induce the commonalty to adopt. The astounding revolution in Turkey in 1908 naturally stirred up the national state of Egypt, and for a time it was the most common among Moslems and Christians alike. Mohammedans, though secretly dismayed at the promulgation of constitutional government, put as good a

face upon it as they could, and pretended that the sultan brought the new order of things about of his own free will. The massacres of Adana and vicinity and the deposition of the old sultan, "Hamid, the Accursed," however, made it difficult for the Mohammed Bourbons to save their face in any such way, and they have accepted the new sultan and the "Young Turks" with the best grace they could.
It is interesting to note how many legacies in Egypt were left by the French to the English. It was a French scholar, Francis Champillon, who taught the world how to read easily the Arabic, and a very clever Egypt, which has made this land the happy hunting-ground of archeologists and students of ancient lore.
The irrigation schemes, which have so wonderfully augmented the prosperity of Egypt, were inaugurated by the French, though of course greatly enlarged an improved by the latest science, under British administration.
"The educational system," says an Italian writer in "The Emancipation of Egypt," "is thoroughly French; and through the schools the language of France has spread until it may be said, without fear of contradiction, that French is still the predominant European language of that land of innumerable tongues. French is the most directly enacted language of the upper classes; and the burgeoning striking and not generally known illustration of how French has sunk into the very soul of the country is that it is even used by British officers in their official reports—yet another anomaly in this home of anomalies." The English language is, however, surely elbowing the French even out of this stronghold, and in Egypt, as in so many other countries, is becoming the commercial language of the people holding hold sway in polite society in Egypt. It is said that more than $500,000,000 of European money is invested in Egypt, the majority of which comes from the stocking leg of the everrity French peasant. But the most notable example of French skill and daring enterprise is the Suez canal, the blue ribbon which cut through Egypt and reduces the distance between Europe and India and the farest by thousands of miles. Until the Panama canal is completed, the Suez canal was the most important of human audacity and engineering skill which the world has ever known.
This canal was French in inception and design and execution, and though the English own the majority of the stock, and, through their occupation of Egypt, control it to a large extent, it will forever stand as a monument (if a canal can be said "to stand") of French ingenuity and energy.
The latest statistics show the enormous use made of the canal by modern commerce. During October last, 368 vessels passed through the canal, and from the 1st of January to the 31st of October, 3,541 vessels were so secure, that receipts for October were almost $240,000, and for the first ten months of 1909 more than $20,000,000. The canal pays 16 per cent. dividends upon the stock—all it is allowed to pay by law—though it is said to earn double that amount.
The ship on which we sailed, the Cleveland of the Hamburg-American line was the largest passenger ship that ever passed through the canal, and was barely able to scrape through, with less than a foot of water between her and the bottom of the canal. The enormous tols that are charged are indicated by the fact that the Hamburg-American line $35,000 to the one ship through, and the United States canal was said to be mulled over $1,000,000 for the passage of our fleet of war vessels on their return from the orient.
What about the future of Egypt? A question more easily asked than answered. The British occupation is supposed to be only temporary, but its temporary character is not as yet visible to the naked eye. It seems to be growing more permanent and stable every day, and the other powers seem to be acquiescing with better grace than could be expected. Even France, which might be supposed to show some wounded pride at the fact of Britain falling heir to the result of the war in Egypt, seems to be satisfied with the fact in return for being allowed a free hand in northern Africa in the countries comparatively near her own shores, has formally and explicitly renounced objections to the long or short occupation of Egypt by Great Britain.
It is evident that that to protect her vast possessions in India and the farther east England must control the canal and allow no hostile power to occupy Egypt; but an Italian writer, who disguises himself under the initials "A.Z." has written a book, which is more or less convincing, to prove that Egypt should be neutralized by all the powers, as Switzerland and Belgium have been. Then she would be left free to work out her own destiny under the guarantee that she should not be dismembered or gobbled up by any European England would be acquired, by her great Mediterranean and her occupation of the Soudan and of Aden on the Red sea, of uninterrupted communication with India through the canal, while Egypt would be emancipated from the anomaly of being under two governments aside from her own, and the popular cry of "Egypt for the Egyptians!" would be in a good degree realized.
Until some such plan is brought about, and Egypt is "neutralized," she can have no better tutor than experienced, steady and on the whole just and fair Great Britain.

LIFE OF A SEA DIVER
LIFE OF A SEA DIVER
Captain Stone Has Had Some Thrilling Experiences.
Seeks Dead at Bottom of Sea for More Than Half Century—Has Close Calls for His Life.
Boston—After 54 years spent in visiting at frequent intervals that mysterious realm which lies at the bottom of the sea, during which long period of time he has fathomed many secrets of the deep. Carlo John Stone of Boston is still, at the ripe age of 71, actively following the occupation of a submarine diver.
He is not only the dean of all the divers of New England and the maritime provinces, but is doubtless the oldest active diver in the United States. He says that he knows of no man of his years in the country who is in active work as a diver.
Captain Stone has done about everything that a diver is called upon to perform under water, but his work has been largely in the line of wrecking operations and in searching for people. He has worked not only on the beaches but in fresh water as well, beneath lakes and rivers and large reservoirs in different parts of the country.
Captain Stone's most harrowing experience as a diver followed the awful disaster that occurred in the
He Cannot Recall the Exact Number of Bodies Taken From the Wreck.
He Cannot Recall the Exact Number of Bodies Taken From the Wreck. memorable wreck of the steamship Atlantic of the White Star line near Cape Sambro, at the entrance to Haltaf harbor, on April 1, when several hundred lives were lost, comparatively few of the large number of passengers being saved. He cannot recall now the exact number of bodies taken from the wreck, but it was up in the hundreds. About 1885 Captain Stone came to Boston and has lived ever since. In the 25 years that has made this city his home he has done a great deal of submarine work at many points of the Atlantic coast as far south as Saskatchewan and throughout New England as well. Captain Stone's life has been filled with hairbreath escapes from death, but the nearest that he ever came to losing his life under water, he says, was while working on the wreck of the steamship Moravian of the Allen line in the year 1884 off Mud island in the bay of Fundy, near Yarmouth, N. S., with four or five other divers in the dead of winter. The ship lay in about 20 feet of water, with the upper deck above the surface, and on this the air pumps of the divers were lashed. The two men on the lines for Captain Stone were stationed on a raft constructed within the ship, at the level of the second deck; while he was 60 feet below them in the booby-hatch working on the cargo.
In some way his air hose became entangled and was broken short off from the air pump on the upper deck. Away below in the black depths of the water Captain Stone heard a sudden sharp click within his massive helmet, similar to the sound made when a large cap is snapped on a gun. A made a seep of the combings of the helmet into his self-up, but he failed and fell backward in the water with all the weight of his heavy diving suit upon him. His tenders on the raft were in ignorance of what had occurred, and he couldn't send a signal to them, because his signal line had gone up with the rope used in hoisting the cargo he was sending up. But word was soon sent to them of the nature of the accident and they quickly got to work. Captain Stone had made another effort to retrieve some of the hatch when he felt himself being hauled upward by his tenders. Although fast losing consciousness through lack of air, he kept his left arm extended so as to feel for the stanchions and push himself away from them in case he struck any, for he was still in total darkness. But he was hauled up safely and escaped any more serious consequences of the adventure than swallowing a quantity of water that had found its way into his helmet while he was struggling for life.

Holton, Kan.—This little town of Holton has some claim to distinction in the person of one of its residents, Peter Bryant, a nephew of William Cullen Bryant. Mr. Bryant came to Kansas in 1859. Prior to coming west he, as a civil engineer, helped in the construction of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy railroad. When the war broke out he went back to his old

home in Illinois, enlisted and served all through the war with the Ninety-third Illinois.
When peace was established he returned to Holton with his young wife, whom he had married just before enlisting. He served several terms as county surveyor for Jackson county, Kan., and later served several terms as probate judge. But as the poetic streak in him made him long to live close to nature, he bought a farm a little way from Holton and there he raised his family, moving back to the farm he found the leisure and the inspiration to gratify his longing to express himself in verse.
The talent for verse appears to have spread out pretty well over the whole of the Bryant family.
Of Peter Bryant's five children none developed the poetic streak. But, skipping a generation, it again appeared in his granddaughter, Josephine McColgin, who is the very apple of his eye. Perhaps in her he recognizes the divine affatus which crowned with glory one of his name and looks to her to add her quota to that fame. However that may be, he effort at versifying in her childish effort at versifying and affords her the encouragement necessary for her mental growth. Though only 11, she has been for several years composing the verses she has spoken in school, besides writing occasionally for her friends to recite.
YOUNGEST CENSUS TAKER
Norman P. Morrow of Austin, Texas, Good Official Though Only Nineteen Years Old.
Austin, Texas.—Norman P. Morrow of Austin is the youngest census supervisor in the United States. He is nineteen years old. There are eight counties in the Tenth congressional district, over which he has jurisdiction, and under him are 138 census enumerators and two office clerks.
It was not through any political influence that young Morrow obtained his appointment from the government.
Norman P. Morrow.
It was merit alone that won for him such remarkable official recognition. The original census supervisor for this district was T. W. Wren of Austin. He appointed Mr. Morrow to the position of chief clerk in the office on account of the latter's good record as a student in the University of Texas. A year after his appointment Mr. Wren died in the agent of the census department went to Washington to conduct the affairs of the office pending an appointment to the vacancy. This special agent found the affairs of the office in such excellent shape through the work of Mr. Morrow that he recommended the latter's appointment as supervisor and this was done.
Not Satisfied With the Tipple.
In his letters Canon Ainger tells of a Scotchman who destested mineral waters. He had been invited to a dinner, during which he consumed several glasses of champagne. He appeared strangely unhappy, however, and toward the close of the meal he returned to the room where he muttered to himself: "I hope there's some whisky coming. I get veraired of these mineral waters."

"Our mother, he told me, was Manile Hargis, of Breathitt county, Ky., as pretty a young mountain girl as ever the sun shone on. I can remember her now with her blonde hair and blue eyes and her passionate love for her two babies. She was a young girl when Joe Filtabils, or Filbates, as Charlie says it should be spelled, and ran off with her to Richmond, and now we were married. They came north to New York and he worked in a machine shop till there was a strike and he lost his work and fell sick and died. She took him home to Richmond and he lies buried there today. Then she came back to New York and tried to make a living for herself and her two children, but could not do it and had to put us in the Five Points House of Industry, from which we were sent to the country.
"After that, my brother Charles has leased, my mother married Carl Marilyn, my sister Jew, who was good and kind to her, and a fine husband, but they went away from New York to Philadelphia and we can get no trace of them. If we could only find mamma she should have a good home as long as she lives. I am going to find her myself if I can, and my husband Millen will have word sent broadcast among the Romany people in America that every one is to look for Mrs. Marilson, she who was Manile Hargis of Kentucky and her wife is to be watched over tended care for till I can get to her. She needn't be a gipsy, but she will always have a good home."

Portland, Ore.—The unique distinction of being the only woman safe-lock expert in the world and the most expert at that business of any man or woman living, is that claimed by Miss Stella Darling, a young Portland woman.

With an inborn knowledge of the mechanism and its whims, Miss Darling examines it critically and listens to an explanation of the difficulty, contagious she puts her alligator hand on a nearby desk, removes her gloves and approaches the box of steel. After a few delt turns of the combination—and she knows most of them; it is more than likely that she set this one—the bolt may refuse to move. She smiles at her failure and as if by some mutual understanding between safe and woman, it opens at her second attempt.
To show the high esteem in which she is held by the manufacturers through the United States it is only necessary to state that she is the recipient of a number of beautiful and beautiful jewels which have been her from time to time. It is only her love for Portland that has prevented her from accepting lucrative offers in distant cities.

his labor through the bestowal upon him of the order of the Red Eagle by the German emperor and the Chinese war medal by the king of England. McCalla, then commander of the cruiser Marblehead, was in the first fighting line in the Spanish-American war. He landed the marines at Guantanamo, the first of the American warships on Cuban soil, in the face of a force fire from Spanish troops, and maintained them there for many days until regular troops could be brought to their support. At Cienfuegos he went in boldly under the Spanish batteries and cut the cables that connected Cuba with Spain, thus accomplishing one of the most important functions in warfare. But perhaps his most brilliant achievement was in connection with the Boxer uprising in China in 1900, when the legionaries were besieged in Peking. Admiral McCalla was born at Camden, N. J., in 1844, entering the navy in 39 years of active duty in parts of the world were noted with conspicuous acts.

HIS SOUL GOES MARCHING ON.
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 high-toned Southerner can see nothing heroic in John Brown and still resents what he'd did a half century ago. Time has made no abatement of that resentment. Still the Southerner 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.
To enforce their right of admission to theatres, hotels and other public places, Afro-American of New York have organized and incorporated a society known as the Manhattan Protective League.
The promoters of this league say in their articles of incorporation that their object will be "to obtain legal redress for Afro-American citizens who are denied the full and equal enjoyment of all rights and privileges in hotels, restaurants, theatres and public conveyances and other places of public accommodation and amusement."
This certainly is a laudable move, as it seems outrageous that decent citizens who desire to enjoy the rights of citizens and taxpayers should be discriminated against solely on account of color.
There is no question of social equality in the matter only one of civil rights, one in which the dollar should be the passport for any one. We hope they will be successful in checking the unfair, unchristian, inhuman discriminations.
Washington, D. C., claims to have been organized "primarily for boys of poor or unfortunate parentage who have heretofore, in many cases, been accustomed to spending their evening upon the streets or in resorts of questionable character," but if an Afro-American boy were presented for membership the entire board of directors would drop dead.
In their recent literature the promoters boast of the fact the club is composed of boys of American, Irish Russian, Syrian, Italian, Jewish Scotch, Bohemian, Austrian, Hungarian, Roumanian, Danish, German Swiss, Chinese, Spanish, English and French parentage. The scum of the earth is welcomed provided it has no Negro blood.

THE ACELUAMA OF NATIONS.
The St. Louis Republic says: "The lawless and brutal blackman, in his crime against an individual, does harm to the entire white race, but that harm is much less than that which he does to his own.
Negro opinion against criminals ought to make itself felt in an organized and systematic way."
All of which is true except the evident implication that the Afro-American has done nothing or very little in that way. But the Afro-American pulpet and press have, without exception protected against and condemned crime of all kinds. They have done nearly all in their power.
We might retort and perhaps prove that the Caucasian-American has done very little better in suppressing lawlessness. The so-called superior race has allowed the United States to be the Aceldama of nations, excelling all others in the number of brutal murders. What has Kentucky done with her night riders, Tennessee with her thugs? Simply told them to go in peace and sin no more—until the next time.

NEW YORK—Say, if you were a lady wearing a chantecler hat with a horned owl upon it and when you woke up and found a common or garden snake in your lap the horned owl failed to make good by snatching the reptile and flying away with it, what would you do? Wouldn't you give that chantecler the hook? Mary Maloney did, anyway.
Mary Maloney, Battery park's leading settee holder, had just such an experience one day. Mary arrived in Battery Park after closing her apartments on Blackwell's island for the summer. Blackwell's is all very well during the major part of the year, but the really elite make it a point of beating it away with the first hot days, and when it comes to beating it away Mary is in the van.
Immediately on reaching Battery park Mary opened her bungalow, which same is the first bench to the left as you come out of the aquarium. From the slats of her bungalow Mary has a super view of the harbor, including the Statue of Liberty. The free baths are in the immediate vicinity. Splendid fishing is to be found in the aquarium, and tea is served at five o'clock every afternoon at the harbor quad close by.
Mary certainly has one of the finest spots in Battery park. Other summerers there have cast envious eyes on that bench of hers, but Mary is muscular and so proficient in the gentle art of boxing that to approach her bench with a view of sitting down upon a small portion of it is about as safe as lounging near an old-fashioned windmill on a breezy day.
Accordingly Mary was inhabiting her bench around noon, indulging in a siesta. Dreamily she opened her eyes and she awoke refreshed by the cool breeze from off the bay she

Buckley made the nearest recovery of little "Willie" Brown, who was enticed over the edge of a third story fire escape, by the melodies of a street piano, that has ever been known. This follows another great catch made by Buckley two months ago, when a burglar tried to spoil his fielding average.
Mrs. Agnes Brown, "Willie's" mother, was engaged in another part of her flat at 444 Metropolitan avenue, and did not see her son crawl out on to the fire escape. When she came into the room a minute later, how-

CHICAGO.—Kissing is going out of style.
Don't lose your head or your temper if the next time you bid your sweetheart a fond farewell and carefully and gently attempt to implant a loving smack on her ruby lips, instead of yielding with apparent reluctance she proudly displays a glaring button with the words "Kiss Not" emblazoned thereon.
It merely means that she has become a member of the World's Health organization and has signed the following pledge:
"In order to encourage good health and lessen the spread of consumption, I desire to join the World's Health organization, and hereby pledge myself to discourage the custom of kissing on the lips whenever it is in my
I DON'T SPEAK TO CIGARETTE SMOKERS ANY MORE?
KANSAS CITY, MO.—"Cigarette smoking is just cooking the brains of the majority of our high school boys," said Prof. E. D. Phillips, principal of the Manual Training high school. "I believe 75 per cent. of the boys of high school age in the city smoke—either pipes or cigarettes. And it shows in their school work.
"The only remedy for this condition among the high school boys lies with the girls. Every normal young man wants to please the girls. If the girls who now permit young men to smoke in their presence would tell the offenders in a pleasant way that it was offensive to them, nine boys out of ten would throw away the cigarette.
"Girls have a powerful influence for good over the boys if they choose to use their influence in that direction. The high school girls of Kansas City
felt something in contact with her arm. Instantly she sat up and took notice. There was a snake wrapped like a bracelet about her fair wrist. Well, everybody said afterward that his first thought was how maybe the siren on the fireboat New Yorker had broken its valve. Then it was seen that no fireboat could let out a screech so shrill, and all the settee holders, rising up in alarm, flocked to see what was the matter with Mary. But they found her strangely composed. She had throttled that serpent with a crook of her little finger and as the reptile cast a dying glance full of anguish at her Mary folded her arms, and, addressing the surrounding populace, remarked: "Say, do I look like Eve? I knew perfectly well he was real because the ones I see is orange color, and then I don't generally see them, only red, white and blue turkeys with straw hats." A murmur of admiration arose from Mary's audience at the clearness of her logic and Policemen O'Mara and Flynn, who had hastened to the spot, after batting the vanquished reptile over the head with their nightsticks, held it up for inspection. "It's a garter," said O'Mara. "The idea," exclaimed Mary and she withdrew blushing.
When she had been assured that everybody agreed it was a boa she consented to come back.
The serpent was taken up to the Church Street Police station.
The front curls, once known as bangs, which Capt. Eddie Gallagher wears, stood stiffly straight when the garter snake was flopped down on the desk before him.
"I only use perfume," the agitated skipper. "Only a little plain cologne on my mustache and forelocks." And when they told him it was really dead he looked unspeakably relieved.
The garter snake was finally suspended over a locker on the dock just in back of the ship news office. But Mary has gone away from there, and on the slats of her bench is chalked: "To Let."
ever, she saw him totter and, before she could reach him, fall over the rail. Her shrieks aroused Policeman Buckley, who was standing in the street below idly twirling his club and watching the children dance to the lively music of a piano. His eye took in the situation in a second. He saw a white bundle descending rapidly. The cessation of the music made the scene almost theatrical. Buckley caught "Wille" in his arms as in a cradle, much to "Wille's" surprise. The baby received a scratch from one of Buckley's brass buttons, but he was otherwise uninjured. He hugged the policeman and laughed just as though it was all in the game. Mrs. Brown ran down from the third floor and rushed out of the doorway prepared for a tragic spectacle. When she observed her baby on the policeman's shoulder she nearly fainted from joy. Buckley was heartily complimented by Captain Dooley of the Bedford avenue station, who was informed of the policeman's catch by several eye witnesses, some of whom are still wondering whether they should call "Wille" "out" or call him "safe"
power."
"Why not stop kissing?" is the question asked in a circular issued by this latest of health fad organizations. "It is a time-honored custom and one person cannot stop it. It is only in unity that sufficient strength can be gained to convince the civilized world that kissing is pernicious and unhealthful."
The rumor that a campaign was to be instituted in the public schools of Chicago to enroll pupils and teachers in the new organization was met with a denial by Superintendent Ella Flagg Young.
"I think more harm is done by calling children's attention to disease than can be offset by the new ideas advanced about kissing," she said.
"As to the merits of the scheme to stop the practise of kissing, I cannot say. I am not a doctor. Anyway, I have heard nothing whatever about the plan to introduce the pledges in the schools."
Mrs. Rechtin, 1723 East McMillan street, Cincinnati, is the president of the anti-kissing organization.
could do much to stop smoking among high school boys.
"We can always tell the ones who smoke. They become stupid, irresponsible and almost abnormal after they have persisted in the habit until they become thoroughly saturated with nicotine. Few of the chronic smokers graduate.
"Most of these boys contract the cigarette habit because they think it fashionable. It is a sort of wrinkle just the same as creasing the trousers till they will cut a lemon."
Modern Education
"What are you doing out here on the marsh?"
"Helping to prepare my boy's lessons."
"What on earth do you mean?"
"He is studying natural history, and I have to catch a bullfrog for him to take to school."
Beyond all wealth, honor, or even health, is the attachment we form to noble souls, because to become one with the good, generous and true is to become in a measure good, generous and true ourselves.—Thomas Arnold

GREAT CANADIAN GLACIER.
Formation of Ice Archway an Annual
Phenomenon.
Bight thousand and four feet of ice
high ts the Yoho glacter of Canada
Since the first discovery of this larg
est of Canada’s glaciers it has main
tained a grand archway of {ce at tt
lower extremity. The span of thie
arch 1s no less than 250 feet, and its
height fs estimated at 70 fect, while
from beneath the arch the drainage
escapes,
‘The formation of the arch seems to
be an annual phenomenon. ‘Toward
the close of the summer it becomes
Weakened by melting, and the whole
structure collapses. The ice gradual.
ly Is broken up and finally removed,
and the formation of a new archway
ts commenced.
From the archway issues the Yoho
river. It is calculated that an ava-
lanche must have occurred in 1859 or
1860. Since then the retreat of the
glacier has been at the average rato
of five or six feet a year. From Au
gust, 1901, to August, 1904, It was
found that the retreat had been 111
feet, or 37 feet a year. Between Au
Bust, 1894, and August, 1905, the gla-
cler receded but nine feet, and is now
thought to be checked.
‘About the nose of the glacier there
fs evidence of a bodily disruption of
the rock strata, to which the term
“plucking” {s applied. Rock layers
are ripped off where the layers are
thin bedded and pointed, and the frag-
ments are pressed into the ice to as.
sist in further work,
‘The Yoho glacier is an almost if not
entirely folated example of a glacier
as a great engine of erosion. Other
glaciers move forward and are engines
of transportation,
No More Gold Lace for Afghans.

which His majesty has decided to

although the ameer has acted wisely
in bringing into general’ uso clothing

An Open Letter.
Mr .Editor: * While ina’ reminiscent
mood, recently, I was reminded that
‘THF APPEAL was started in the year
3885 and therefore will pass me 25th
milestone of its existence this yeer.
What a number of interesting
events have taken place during these
twenty-five years, what wonderful ad-
vancements have been made by the
Alro-American citizens ot the ‘twin
Cities in all lines of life!
And as 7 was ono of its early pro:
moters and know much of its his-
tory, { believe i is no small thing
for a newspaper tn hve for a quirter
of a century uncer the circumsta 1s
which dave sa:rcunded THE) AP-
PAL, and it seeas to me that some
sort ¢f celebist’on of the event
would le entinent!y fit w:d_ proper.
and, I glso believe that ike ciiizens
cf the Twin Cities whom you have
served so faithfully and well wovld
gladly join in maxing the event one
Tong to be remen:bered.
My idea is that a sonvenir edition
of THE APPBAL be published con-
taining a chronological history of the
events. thag have. transpired during
its existence, cuts and sketches of
promincnt men and women, cuts of
the beautiful homes that ‘so many
nave vecome the happy possessors of,
and numerous other matters of inter:
est that would make such an edition
aL most valuable one for us all. ‘Then
a8 4 grand finale a public testimonial
celebration in some large hall on the
anniversary day of THE APPEAL'S
bith or such other day that in your
judgment is more suitable, in whica
all may take a part in making the
event one of the largest ever held
here. ‘
I wou'd suggest, if the idea meets
your approval, that you select a mum-
der of nerscns to act as a eemmittee
to carry out stich plans as T have ad-
varced or as you may deem most ad-
visable.
Very truly yours.
T. H. Lyles.

My Doar Mr. Adams:
Several weeks ago T read an open
letter in THE APPEAL, whieh sug-
gested a celebration of its 2th aani-
versary. Tt is the right thing to do,
ind Cam heartily in favor of it.
Having been a reader of your paper
‘ever sineo it was frst published, and
a sincere admirer of the tenacity’ with
which you have held on to the life cf
your feurnal, supplsing a demand no
others have been able to fill. T believe
it is an obtization the whole commu-
nity owes you, and that you justly de-
serve recoenition and merit whatever
form the oceasion may present.
T shall he pleased to render aay as-
sistance in my power to ive.
Yours very truly,

marriage of his danghter to the
world's greatest lawiver, proved the
intimate relations and_high-standing
of the Negro in the affairs of the Bi-
ble is given historical proot according
to a work just published by the Bible
Publishing Company, of Moravian
Falls, N.C, and written by Dr. Ar
thur ‘." 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 2 book oa
the Congo Free State, dealing with
his extensive study of ‘the conditions
of the eclored races in various parts
of the world. ‘The importance of the
historical work just issued by the
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 clected by the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement of Science, and by birth a
Sothern man. ‘The ‘book which is
entitled: “The Jew a Negro,” proves
by Jewish ‘nistorians and copious quo-
tations from the Old and New Testa-
Tent. that the Negroes occupied the
highest positions in Bible times, and
are the directdescendants of Moses,
Abraham, David, Solomon, and the
other patriarchs.” It goes farther and
declares that these great Biblical
characters were colored men, and rea-
sons it out with the historical daring
end evidence which ought to make
every ambitious colored person want
to read. the book. This book is print:
ed on the best book paper, bound in

‘There can be but two defects in the human eye.
Theeye may be too long in whole. Then we have the
Myopic eye.
Or too short in whole—the Hyperopic eye.
Combine the two im one eye and we have Astigmatism.
Properly adjusted glasses will correct these defects.
Medicines or waiting, never.
Symptoms that spring from these two simple eye mal-
ormations are manifold; such as eye and headaches, Indi-
gestion, Dyspepsia, Nervous Debility, Chorea, Epilepsy and
other ailments having their origin in lack of nerve force.
‘We correct all Defects of the human eye that glasses
will remedy. Charges reasonable. Satisfaction guaranteed.
