The Caucasian Christians of Washington are at it again. Accustomed to vent the race hatred on Afro-Americans, it is not strange that they "broke out" when a yellow man crossed the color line. Mr. Chen T. Wang is a Chinaman. He is a graduate of Yale and has been prominent in the Y. M. C. A. work in this country and abroad. For more than a year he was in charge of the student Y. M. C. A. work among Chinamen in the United States, and was at one time in charge of the work among Chinamen in Japan. Recently he was appointed international secretary for China, and was housed in the dormitory of the Y. M. C. A. When his presence became known the occupants of rooms on the same floor with that of Wang immediately made protest against the introduction of men of other races into the building. Of course that was not a Christian spirit, but the spirit of American Christianity is usually at variance with the spirit of Christ. The managers of the Y. M. C. A., fearing that news of the insult would be injurious to the work in China, hushed Chilko DR. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON. Famous Tuskegee Educator, Who Was the Victim of a sault in New York City.

Washington in New York last Sunday night, is very much deplored throughout the world, and the noted educator has received thousands of communications of all the various methods used for the purpose expressing sympathy. But there is one that stands out head and shoulders above the rest, viz. the autograph letter from the President of the United States, William Howard Taft. One would almost be willing to suffer the pain, chagrin and humiliation that was the lot of Dr. Washington, to receive such a strong, manly, humane, friendly letter from the President of the United States. The letter was as follows: "The White House. "My dear Dr. Washington: I am greatly distressed at your misfortune and I hasten to write you of my sympathy, my hope that you will soon recover from the wounds inflicted by insane suspicion or viciousness, and of my confidence in you, in your integrity and morality of character and in your highest usefulness to your race and to all the people of this country.

"Hotel Manhattan, New York City." At the hearing in court, among those present were James H. Pitts, president of the City National Bank of Tuscaloosa, Ala.; W. J.

They are not working for the Chinamen's souls, but rather for the benefit of American pockets. American merchants contribute millions to convert people of other races and get back two dollars for every dollar contributed. That's all there is to it. Mr. Wang is evidently a man of little spirit. If he were properly constituted he'd repudiate the false Christianity they have taught him in this country and return to Confucianism. He'd refuse to be a party to the race-hate-propaganda of American Christianity. JIM CROW SALVATION. Recently there was a meting of Salvation Army workers of the country at Washington, D. C., and work among Afro-Americans was suggested. A storm of protest went up from the officers from the South when a Northern delegate proposed that white officers be required to conduct meetings among Afro-Americans. They virtually declared they would not assume such duties, with the result that the committee appointed to draft a plan for the new work was discharged before it had time to commence work and the conference adjourned without further allusion to the proposed work. Commander Booth said: "It would probably be just as well to segregate the races. The Negroes are badly in need of such help as we can give them, and I am confident we shall ac --- M. PROF. W. E. B.

The Afro-Americans do not need any more jim crow salvation. They have had enough of it. They would like a little real Christianity. There is practically none in the American Church, and now that the Salvation Army, which was organized to work among the scum of the earth, purposes to draw the color-line, it would seem that Caucasian Christianity is indeed a farce. CAPITAL CAUCASIAN CHRISTIANITY. The Washington Herald, in a recent issue, has a long-winded editorial on the goodness of the people of the Capital City and among other things says that the lives of the residents are in keeping with the highest tenets of Christianity. This may be true in some respects, but when the color-line is reached the Caucasians of Washington do not follow the tenets of the meek and lowly Nazarene. In no city in the United States is there more bitter race hatred, and there is less reason for it than in many other places. While there are many bad Afro Americans, the percentage of intelligence, refinement and wealth is large, but this seems to infuriate the alleged Caucasian Christians and cause them to hate their Afro-American brethren the more bitter. The Caucasian hypocrisy has been strikingly shown on several occasions within the past year. In one fashionable street, there is a block contain- "The White House. WILLIAM H. TAFT." ing many fine residences. Among them, however, are a few shacks occupied by low-grade Afro-Americans, but the aristocratic whites and lowly blacks have lived in harmony for many years. Last year a wealthy Afro-American, with an income of about $5,000 per annum, purchased one of the fine houses and moved into it. The gentleman is a man of the highest character, his wife is a lady of refinement, a graduate of one of the leading American universities and also a graduate of a famous German conservatory of music, in fact the entire family is infinitely superior in every respect to any white family in the block, but the Caucasian Christians can indigent at what they called a "Negra loisanan" and began to move away one by one and began to have all gone, many who owned their own home having sacrificed them to get away from Afro-American Christians. And by the way, it was a committee of Washington Christians which decreed that no Afro-Americans should be permitted to take part in the Sunday parade in that city last year. Few Caucasian Christians live up to the highest tenets of Christianity when the color-Line is reached. OSCAR M. WARING. For Over a Quarter of a Century Principal of Summer High School, St. Louis, Dead. On last Sunday morning at 7:30 o'clock Mr. Oscar M. Waring died at his home 1211 Tower Grove Ave., St. Louis, following an attack of gastroitis, aged 69 years. Mr. Waring was a native of Rochester, Pa., and began his education in the public schools, and at the age of 16 took up teaching as a profession. Later he attended Oberlin College and also studied. He taught schools in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky and Missouri, when for more than a quarter of a century he was principal of Summer High School in St. Louis. On account of failing health he resigned his position two years ago. He was preeminently successful as a teacher and disciplinarian, and was held in the highest esteem by the officials of the school board and the large number of teachers and pupils who were under his control during twenty-five years. During the time he was teaching in Louisville, Ky., he met and married Mary Charlotte Adams, a daughter of the Reverend Henry Adams, and a sister of the Adams Bros., proprietors and publishers of THE APREAL, who survives him. He also leaves a son, George, and a daughter, Jennie, by a former marriage with Fannie Hunster, daughter of the late Edmund Hunster of Yellow Springs, Ohio. The son and daughter are both happily married. The funeral of the deceased was held at his late residence on last Wednesday afternoon, Father Mason of All Saints Episcopal church officiating. The funeral was quite private, with the family of four, a brother-in-law and the surviving members of his family present. The pall bearers were selected from the principals and teachers of the public schools as follows: R. H. Cole, D. E. Gordon, J. E. Uether, A. J. Gossin, J. B. Vashon, W. H. Huffman, A. G. Thornton, E. S. Williams. During the services "Rock of Ages" and "Nearer My God to Thee" were sweetly and touchingly sung. His remains were taken to the Missouri Crematory and cremated in accordance with his desire. When the funeral cortege had assembled in the chapel at the crematory an eulogy was pronounced by Mr. J. L. Usher, who uttered strong hissing words, testifying to the worth of the deceased as a "real man." There were beautiful floral tokens laid upon his bier and many letters and telegrams of condolence were sent to the widow. Prominent among these as best showing the high regard in which Mr. Waring was, are the following: Office Superintendent Public Schools. Mrs. Oscar Waring. My Dear Madam: Permit me to extend the sympathy of all of us in this office. We realize that the consciousness of your husband's services in his family and the community must be a great consolation even in your overwhelming sorrow. Respectfully yours. The principal and teachers of Summer High are arranging to place a memorial tablet in the new and beautiful school with the designing and completing of which the deceased had much to do. Resolutions on the Death of Mr. O. M. Waring by the Principal and Teachers of Sumner High School. Whereas, Death has laid his relentless hand upon Mr. O. M. Waring, who for upwards of thirty years served as principal of Sumner High School; Whereas, during his incumbency as principal, the school passed through some of the most important phases of its life; in June 1885 it became a bona fide high school; soon afterward, the Normal Department was added; then developed the departments of Drawing, Physics, Chemistry; Manual Training and Domestic Science; therefore, be it. Resolved. That it is the sense of the principal and teachers of the Sumner school, their regular weekly meeting, as well as his work as an educator, and as principal of Sumner High School, has been well and faithfully done. Resolved, That it is the sense of those teachers, who knew him and worked with him, that he was a man of rare gifts of mind and heart; that for decision of character, singleness of purpose, moral integrity, chastity of thought, purity of speech, and gentlemanly deportment, he had few equals and no superiors. Resolved, That it was his moral worth, no less than his intellectual fitness, that at all times enabled him to perform his tasks with such signal ability. Resolved, That those of us who knew him cannot do better than to strive to emulate his virtues, and to hold them up as an example to the young. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be preserved among the archives of Sumner High School, and that a similar copy be presented to his bereaved family. Signed: FRANK L.

William Henry Lewis is one of the prominent Afro-Americans of the country. Born of parents who had been slaves, he won distinction at Harvard as a scholar and an athlete, attracted attention later as a lawyer in this city, and during the administration of President Roosevelt was appointed assistant district attorney at Boston, Mass. Lewis was born in Berkley, Va., in 1863. In 1888 he entered Amherst College, where he won distinction for scholarship and athletics. Entering the Harvard Law school in 1892, he played center on the football team for two years, and later was one of the coaches. He is credited with being the first football strategist to find a way to stop Pennsylvania's famous "guards back" play. (From the New York Independent.) This is a conundrum which is no joke. It is a very serious matter with many of the first Creole families of Louisiana. To us outside who look on it is absurd amusing, as the antics of those who make fools of themselves always are, no matter how serious to the participants. Louisiana was settled by the French. The French used to have less fear of race admixture than English settlers. Many Creoles, like Cubans, have a dark complexion, and have been suspected of negro blood, which they angrily deny. Louisiana has an elabrat terminology for the successive dilutions, from the mulatto and the quadroon downward—or upward—which we printed we now use again. When the dilution reaches the sixteenth fraction it is almost indistinguishable, and at the sixty-fourth test can discover it. For all practicable purposes the man is a Caucasian—but not for Louisiana law. Of all States, Louisiana ought to be the last to enact a law forbidding inter-marriage of a white person with any one who has the least infusion of negro blood. There is no knowing where it might hit, for in Louisiana beyond doubt many pass for white in whose genealogy research would discover a few drops of negro blood. Such a case has lately luried up the State. A young woman of a good family, a graduate of a fashionable ladies' seminary in New Orleans, was killed by being run over in the street. A newspaper spoke of her as colored. That was a mortal offense. Her brother brought suit for slander, and the editor, by referring to ancient records, showed that one of her ancestors was recorded as colored. That put the whole family into a horrible plight. He had always thought of themselves white, and had associated only with white people. Now nobody would associate them. They must sink, the visibly white, to the rank and caste and associations, of negroes. Hitherto they had been good enough to associate with anybody. Now, with no fault of their own, and no change in themselves, they were thrust, with all their whiteness, into the outer blackness. Th dead girl had a sister happily married to a man of German origin. There was no question that he was a full Caucasian. But he had 'imbibed the Louisiana prejudice and terror of invisible and infinitesimal nigritue. He discovered—and his wife did—from the newspaper account that she had this bar sinister. He could not continue to live with such a banned woman. Besides, the law forbade it. He was liable to imprisonment for maintaining marital relations with her. He appealed to the court to have his marriage annulled, and the court could do no less. So she was sent adrift with her husband, and she was in this case two legal maxims had instruction, one by its truth, "Summa lex summa injuria," and the other by its extreme contradiction, "De minimis lex curat." The law does care a great deal for the smallest things. It cares in Louisiana for what is so attenuated as to be invisible. Now such a law and such enforcement is barbarous beyond expression. It puts a suspicion in mutitudes of families. It is against all common sense as against all Christianity. Who knows where, thru personal malice, it may strike next? The story is told in the Sun—very likely so—of a similar case in one of the parishes. A suit for slander was brought for calling a family colored. The sheriff looked up the records and found the charge sustained. As the investigation amused him, he looked farther and found one of his own ancestors recorded as colored—but a fortunate fire soon after destroyed the proof. Now, what should be done? If Louisiana must maintain its infamous law against intermarriage, it should at least set a line where the propentate blood is to be held as washed out. Set it at one-eighth or one-sixteenth, or one-eighth-second, or one-sixth-fourth but at least set it somewhere. Continued on fourth page.

There is no law compelling any one to receive THE APPEAL, but there is law to compel any one to pay for it who receives it, upon the principle of law that, one must pay for anything he receives. Ordering a paper discontinued does not pay any amount that may be due and unpaid, and the publisher has the right to continue to send his paper until whatever may be due for it is fully paid; then an order to discontinue must be obeyed. It is hoped that every one who reads this, that is indebted to the paper, will bring or send to the office the amount due. Every one who receives THE APPEAL is expected to pay for it. CIGARS AND SMOKERS Tampa, Florida, has more cigar factories than any other city in the United States, and we became alive to the fact that Afro-Americans in various parts of the country smoke enough cigars of all grades to keep hundreds of cigar makers at work daily, so we organized in 1906, what is known as the WILLIAMS CIGAR COMPANY, and we have been successful. We have the largest Afro-American cigar factory known. The members of our race must not only be consumers, but producers. We are at present employing from 15 to 20 members of our race in our factory, and we are desirous of appointing agents in all parts of the country. Our agents can make easily from $10 to $25 per week in the larger factories. Will you help us in this great work of employing our youths? Our prices range from $2.30 per hundred to $6.00 per hundred. We can save you from one cent up on every cigar if you order direct from our factory. The extra amount you are paying our competitors for cigars enables them to employ hundreds of their boys and girls and to build for them palatial homes. We only ask for a portion of your patronage. We are trying to solve this great problem along the lines of selfhelp. Give us a trial order. Send for our famous R. L. W. Cigars at $3.70 per hundred. Williams Cigar Company, J.

St. Paul has the name of being progressive and up-to-date, but this does not look much like it, as from THE APPEAL'S point of view, the petition seems eminently timely and proper. There is very little that is good that we get in this world, or, in the world to come, without asking for it; and, if the raise in salaries is desired by the St. Paul porters they should not hesitate to ask for it. The petition has been placed at the Commercial barber shop of Fifth street and all porters who desire to sign it may do so there. Now, men get busy! "THE MAN OF THE HOUR." Which Will be Seen at the Grand Next Week. Of the plays produced in the past two years, none have attracted such widespread attention or received such warm praise as George Broadhurst's greatest of all American plays, "The Man of the Hour," which will again be seen at the Grand next week, starting Sunday matinee. Its freshness purity, and real and genuine worth commend it to every admirer of all that is good in play-building. The succession of crowded houses that has everywhere attended this production since its initial performance and the way press and public have received it, emphasizes unmistakably that it is something more than a good and wholesome play, that it is a transcript from real life, in writing "The Man of the Hour" Mr. Broadhurst has indulged in as little talk as possible, but that little has been made intensely interesting, powerful and effective, his long experience in play-building that impressed him with the fact that he now goes to theatre to witness good acting rather than philosophical discussions "The Man of the Hour" is full of genuine comedy—of which the characters themselves are unconscious, and which is the more attractive on that account—heart interest, and has a most fascinating love story and a vein of pathos that is honest and sincere. The special company will be seen here; it includes such well-known players as Harry English, John Moore, John Morrison, Edward Keane, Clyde F. McCabe, Frank Hanna, Franklin George, Frank Hendriksen, E. H. Felt, Geo. A. Carner on and Emma Naylor, Florence Mack, Virginia Irwin.

Wealthy residents of the Fifth avenue section of New York are receiving calls these days from polite policemen in uniform, who inquire how many children they have and what educational advantages the youngsters are receiving. If the reply is that the young persons are studying at home under the direction of private teachers the policeman makes a note of that on a white card. Within a few days a special inspector of the board of education calls. He asks the governess or tutor what Algernon and Genevieve are studying, what Franklin or Mademoiselle is teaching, and if the course of instruction is equivalent to that required in the common schools. So far the authorities have been satisfied. George H. Chatfield, who supervises the collecting of statistics about the children of school age under the aegis of the permanent census board, said that the policemen and inspectors are received by parents and guardians throughout the fashionable residential districts with much courtesy and had all their questions answered.—New York Herald.
