The Republican platform, adopted at Chicago, explicitly declares that the party out regard to race or color, and just as explicitly declares for the party in the nation, in letter and spirit of the thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth constitutions, it is needless to state that I stand with my party in the platform, and believe that equal Justice to all men and the fairness of these amendments are in keeping with the real American spirit of the party in speech accepting Republication nomination for Presidency. ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIER. The Baltimore Star of last Saturday has a whole page of religious news. The Epworth Leaguers are organizing a mission study; the Baptist Union is busy; the Women's Missionary Society has some new scheme to convert the heathen. The Brotherhood of St. Andrew will hear an address on "The Forward Movement;" the Presbyterians will have a conference to discuss "A Vital Question for Every Church;" the Catholics are at work along many lines and the Methodists are getting ready for a "Mon- SENATOR WILLIAM LORIMER. Illinois' Junior Senator Who Has Been Vindicated by the Senate Committee —The News Very Pleasing to the Senator's Afro-American Friends —Born in England, Lorimer Has no Race Prejudice and Believes in a Square Deal for Every Man Regardless of Color ster Methodist Mass Prayer Meeting." While all of the alleged religious work was going on, the city council enacted the law practically establishing a Ghetto for Afro-Americans. American Christianity as exemplified in Baltimore and many other communities is a farce pure and simple. BACK TO THE SOUTH? Southern railroads are sending out thousands of letters to former residents of the South who have gone West appealing to them to return and avail themselves of the new conditions which did not exist when they left home. The South is now prosperous and the opportunities for Caucasians are great in number. The writer was born in the South but he has no desire to return. Truly the conditions have changed, since he left; the Afro-American has been disfranchised and the color-line has been accentuated. It is true there are many opportunities for money-making, but it is usually at the expense of manhood. And what is money without manhood rights? INSULT TO JAPANESE The "superior" Caucasian Americans in Pasadena, California, decided that they are too good to attend a function in honor of the officers of the Japanese squadron now at Los Angeles, so the hotel proprietor called the reception off. This action was regarded by the Japanese admiral as a direct insult to his nation and canceled his invitation for a return dance on his ship. The Japanese officers have been treated with the greatest consideration by all of European nations and it remained for the silly Caucasian Americans to insult people who are in every respect their equal and in many ways superior. Evidently they don't seem to realize how small such actions make them appear in the eyes of the civilized world. THE APPEAL hopes that the fool Caucasian Americans will some days acquire some good common sense. According to Dr. Eugen Oberhummer, professor of historical geography at the University of Vienna, who lectured recently before the Washington Academy of Sciences, the present so-called white people of Europe and America are descended from Africans and Asiatics. By means of charts and anthropological explanations, Dr. Oberhummer traced the evolution of African and Asiatic types to the present day population of Europe and America. HON. ELBRIDGE HANECY. The Able Counsel of Senator Lorimer in the Recent Investigation. Vindicated by the Senate Committee Senator's Afro-American Friends Has no Race Prejudice and for Every Man Regardless color. VINDICATED Senator Lorimer Acquitted of Corruption Charge Senate Subcommittee Refutes Charge of Bribery MUCH TESTIMONY IS TAKEN Subcommittee Consisting of a Majority of the Full Committee Votes Unanimously in Favor of the Accused Member. Senator Lorimer, of Illinois, who was charged with having obtained his election to the United States Senate as the result of bribery and corruption, is to be acquitted by his colleagues. This result was practically made certain when the subcommittee from the Senate Committee on Privileges and Elections voted unanimously that the charges preferred against Senator Lorimer, involving members of the Illinois legislature, have not been sustained. This means that Senator Lorimer will be cleared and will retain his seat in the Senate. The members of the subcommittee who give the accused Illinois Senator a clean bill of health are Burrows, of Michigan, the chairman of the Privileges and Elections Committee; Bulkeley, of Connecticut; Heyburn, of Idaho; Gamble, of South Dakota; Paynter, of Kentucky; Frazier, of Tennessee, and Johnston, of Alabama. The subcommittee voted to keep secret the action taken until report is made to the full Committee on Privileges and Elections, but the news corresponded around the Capitol. The action of the committee was unanimous and the subcommittee consisted of a majority of the full Committee on Privileges and Elections so that it is practically certain that Senator Lorimer will be vindicated by vote of the Senate. The subcommittee took much testimony, spending a part of the summer in Chicago, where the majority of the witnesses were examined. The verbs the subcommittee is that the charges the subcommittee is that the Senate, involving the integrity of the junior Senator from Illinois, have not been sustained. THE PEN OF INFAMY. Milton Dashiell, the Baltimore attorney who started the race agitation which has culminated in the passage of the West ordinance segregating the races in certain streets in that city has received from Mayor Mahool the pen which he used in affixing his name to the infamous measure, and will treasure it as a souvenir. back whirl Sudden forward. he hooke hung from thousand place, and the linen unfit a neighbor People until the it flew of street. Now be From stru roof, the flew, purse What a People rushed to catch it; it waited until the hands were quite close, then it flew to the other side of the street. Now began an extraordinary race. From street to street, from roof to roof, the Divine swaddling clothes flew, pursued by the crowd. The Swaddling Clothes of the Infant Jesus O NE of the most famous cathedrals in Germany possesses as its most sacred relic the swaddling clothes of the Infant Jesus. It is a sweet and beautiful possession which many visitors come from afar to venerate. One Christmas eve the sacristian was arranging the treasure confided to his care, which was to be exposed to view on the great fete of the morrow. The sacristian was a little, hump-backed man, bandy-legged and rednosed, and it was to this ugly person that the privilege was reserved of always caring for the adored relic. We must not be astonished at this, but must reflect that often the most humble and unattractive are chosen to be nearer the kingdom of heaven. But, unfortunately, the hump-backed sacristian had no idea that he was one of the elect, and the marvelous character of his task gave him no extraordinary emotion. During the 20 years that he had snuffed the candles of the cathedral, and been in daily contact with the treasure, he had received no enlightenment; he never made the sign of the cross before touching the sacred linen, and he treated it with the same mechanical indifference with which he had hammered the soles of the boots in his former occupation of cobbler. This day, on opening the cupboard in which the linen of the Infant Jesus was carefully enclosed, he whistled a little dance tune and thought: "Ugh! It's not nice weather outside." A violent wind was blowing in the town, unhooking the signboards of the shops, and making the chimneys shake on all the pointed roofs. The man, on entering the sacristy, listened to the moaning of the wind, and thought that the fury of nature did not accord well with the fete for which he was preparing; but doubless there was a striking symbol in the storm, and the unloosed elements might calm themselves suddenly when the words of pardon and pity were said: "On earth peace, good will toward men." The sacristan went to put his coarse hand carelessly on the Divine relic, when an unheard-of event happened. The window in the sacristy opened suddenly, pushed by a great rush of wind. The storm entered like an invasion of the Barbarians; it rushed over all in the room, knocking down the sacred objects, and the linen of the Infant Jesus, taken up in the whirling tempest, was blown out of the window. The hump-back remained for a moment stupid and stricken, then recovering himself, he rushed into the church, crying: "Saint Joseph! Saint Martin! Help! Help! They have taken the linen!" At this alarming cry the people ran from all parts. The priests in their suplices, the behead in his cap, the Swiss with his halbert, the old women who had been praying, ran with pale faces and terrified eyes, and everyone cried out: "What are you saying? Holy Mother! what are you saying?" The little hump-back tore to the door; he seemed stricken with madness. "The linen!—what misery!"—the linen! By the window. A puff of wind! Run quickly to catch it again!" Then in the road was sudden tumult! everyone began to run in pursuit of the stolen relic. The noses turned up to the houses resembled notes of interrogation. "There! there!" said some one. "No, not!" They discovered it at last. It was lying close to a crest high up on the roof of the church. One would have said that the fretwork column, chilled with cold, had taken refuge in the sheltering folds. "There it is! there it is!" Everyone cried out together. But how were they to reach it? "It's the sacristan's duty to go up; it was he who let it go." The humpback whistled no longer. Suddenly a courageous man came forward. He crawled up the columns, he hooked himself to the fretwork, he hung from the projections; after a thousand perils he arrived at the place, and extended his arm to take the linen. But—at this moment, the linen unfurled itself and was blown to a neighboring roof. What a chase! The priests, red with A Christmas Carol Pause a while, O earth and heaven; draw ye near in wonder dread, For the Lord of Life Eternal lieth in a stable bed; Cradle lowly! Yet made holy, By that resting Infant Head. Come, ye shepherds, come, ye wise men—high and low your homage bring, For the sleeping Babe you worship cometh as your Saviour King! 'Tis the Christ-Child, Who, self-axled, Left His throne on love's swift wing. Come ye here, and taste the earnest of a joy above! Ye shall find within this manger, guarded by the Holy Dove, Life immortal, Through the portal Opened by a Saviour's Love! indignation, stifling, lifting their arms, crying orders, and gesticulating madly. The Swiss followed with his useless halberd. The little hump-backed sacristan ran also as fast as his bandy legs would go. And behind came the old women, limping, pitying themselves, and invoking the name of Mary. The whole town was rapidly raised by this great agitation. To the maddened priests and the old devotees was joined a population running and excited. Some brought poles, others brought ladders, and some brought crucifixes, or sprigs of blessed box-tree, with which they thought they could seize the linen, attracted by this holy magnet. The firemen soon arrived, increasing the disorder of the strident noise with their horns and the galloping of their horses. But the swaddling-clothes seemed to mock the priests and their exorcisms, the devout with their crucifixes, the firemen with their ladders. Sometimes the linen placed itself at the edge of a cornice and rolled itself round a chimney. From up there an end of the stuff floated ironically near the crowd, seeming to scout it at. And when, with difficulty, some one gained the roof, hoping to have one gained it—good-by! it would go further yet, without any respect of person. After an hour of this game, it suddenly went away, and all the crowd could see was a point of white disappearing on the horizon. In a distant road, aright at the end of the town, in a sordid attic, a woman was holding a new-born child on her knees. She was contemplating: with a somber tenderness. She covered it with kisses, having no other garment to give it than her sad lips. By the gaping window, with cracked framework and broken panes, the cold and the wind came to usher in a Christmas of misery. The newly-born was rigid and white, like a waxen Jesus. My God! my God! had he to die thus, the innocent—had he lived only to suffer for an hour? The mother got up and moved about the room, silently, fiercely. Nothing—she could find nothing to protect the little body in all its purity. She sat down again; she did not weep; tears are a luxury—even her eyes were parched. Near her there was nothing but wind and cold; they entered, making a clamor like many wooden shoes. They pressed close, with their lugubrious and cold faces—bad magicians come to bring to the newly-born their gifts of agony. Christmas! Christmas! Ah! that Other that one commiserates, that Child of Bethlehem. He at least had straw in his cradle, and the beasts around warmed him with their breath! The mother, who could not cry, clenched her fist to curse Christmas. But her hand fell in the presence of the adorable miracle. At the gaping window something white floated. It arrived from nothingness. It was like a bird which had come to ask for refuge. Then softly, the white thing came into the attic. The mother stared. The swaddling-clothes! And the little naked newly-born was wrapped in the linen of the little Infant Jesus. Important. Millionaire (to his daughter—"Tell me, child—that young man who wants to marry you this Christmas, has he got any money? Miss Innocence—Money, father? Why, he has just given me a cluster diamond ring studded with pearls! Millionaire—Yes, I know. Has he any money left? He does not simply say, Christ is born, but to you he is born; neither does he say, I bring glad tidings, but to you I bring glad tidings of great joy. Furthermore, this joy was not to remain in Christ, but it shall be to all the people—Martin Luther. ```markdown ``` An unsectarian Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education.

The management of the Star Theater announces that commencing Sunday matinee, December 18th, the Sam. T. Jack's Own Company will play a week's engagement at that theater. This announcement should be positive assurance to local theatergoers that they are going to be afforded a treat, as the coming to any city of this organization has come to be regarded as an event in burlesque, and this season's company is a positive credit to that old reliable name, Sam T. Jack. The enactment of the different roles by such clever people as Mr. Bob Van Osten, who heads the cast; Kathryn Delmar, the wonderful singer; Dick Farnum, of London Music Hall fame; Burha Golden that "Gingery Girl"; Lew Dunbar, fresh from "Three Twins" and "Little Johnny Jones"; Lew Christy; Stewart and Stewart and others, make it the high class organization that it is. Mr. Bob Van Osten, the man with the duck nose, is conceded to be the funniest man in burlesque, and Kathryn Delmar is reputed to possess a soprano voice that would not be looked for outside of grand opera. Dunbar and La Vere are credited with being the most up-to-date and original singers and dancers on the burlesque stage. There is a chorus of thirty dashing damsels and the "prize beauty broilers" top them all for Selected hard coal at the same price as you pay others for the ordinary run.

A traveler passing through the Broad Top mountain district in northern Bedford county, Pennsylvania, last summer came across across a lad of sixteen cultivating a patch of miserable potatoes. He remarked upon their unpromising appearance and expressed pity for any one that had to dig a living out of such soil. "I don't need no pity," said the boy resentfully. The traveler hastened to soothe his wounded pride. But in the offended tone of one who has been misjudged the boy added: "I ain't as poor as you think. I'm only workin' here. I don't own this place." Youthful Teacher's Bravery. The brave action of a girl teacher was publicly noticed at a recent meeting of Scarborough (Eng.) town council. Miss Smith was in a room with a class of 40 children, none over five years of age. One boy had in his pocket some Bengal lights. Suddenly his clothes burst into flames. Miss Smith at once called the children to order to prevent panic and then seizing hold of the screaming child wrapped him in her dress and put out the flames with her hands. But for her presence of mind the child would undoubtedly have lost his life. Then she ran with the child to its mother and collapsed. Her hands and arms were badly blistered and her dress burnt. but the child was saved. AHAPPY NEW YEAR The LADIES OF ST.
