MASCOTS or PETS ON OUR WARSHIPS VOL. 27. NO. 16. MASCOTS ON OUR V NE of the most interesting side-lights on American naval life, and one that gives insight as to the kind-heartedness of Uncle Sam's blue jackets, is afforded by the care and affection bestowed upon the mascots or pets or our warships. There is probably not a single craft, big or little, in the whole American navy, that has not its mascot, and in many instances—particularly in the case of big battleships—there are aboard anywhere from two ```markdown ``` to nain a dozen pets that vie with one another for the homage due a ship's mascot. The number of pets or mascots aboard ship depends somewhat on the good nature of the captain, for the commander of the warship has the say as to whether or not any prospective pet be allowed to find a home aboard the craft. Indeed, the naval regulations—that bulky blue-bound volume which lays down the law for everything in the navy—dignifies this subject of pets by devoting a paragraph to it. In this reference to pets in the naval book of etiquette it is set down that the officer of the deck (who corresponds to the officer of the day at a military camp) must not allow any pets to be brought aboard unless the permission of those in authority on the vessel be obtained. However it is only an exceptionally grouchy commander who ever makes any objection to the presence on board of any reasonable number of pets. Indeed, many an officer with a natural fondness for pets, has come to have a genuine affection for four-footed friends aboard ship. Moreover, the presence of pets helps to keep the seamen content. And finally it is just as well for an officer—considering the well-known superstitions of tars—to recognize that ancient tradition of the sea which declares that the presence of certain animals aboard a ship will bring it luck. Almost any pet having found a domicile on board a floating fortress, specially advances to the dignity of a "mascot," no matter whether the aforementioned pet belongs to one individual in the ship's company, or is the property of the crew at large. And in this connection it should be mentioned that there are several different ways in which a pet or mascot may find a berth. to man a dozen pets that vie with one another for the homage due a ship's mascot.

And in this connection it should be mentioned that there are several different ways in which a pet or mascot may find a berth CANADIES BROUGHT FROM CANALIES BROUGHT FROM THE TROPICS ON THE CRUISER TENNESSEE aboard a naval craft. The most dignified entry is that made by the animal which has been specifically designated in advance as the official mascot of a new warship, and is brought aboard with due ceremony at the time the vessel is placed in commission. Often such a mascot is a native of and a donation from the state or city after the mascot is named, as, for instance, the handsome white goat which was presented to the battleship Kentucky by citizens of the blue grass state when that craft first went into commission. Another favored manner of introduction for pets aboard warships is by transfer from other aboard a naval craft. The most dignified entry is that made by the animal which has been specifically designated in advance as the official mascot of a new warship, and is brought aboard with due ceremony at the time the vessel is placed in commission. Often such a mascot is a native of and a donation from the state or city after which a warship is named, as, for instance, to handover to the battlefield of the battlefield Kentucky by citizens of the blue grass state when that craft first went into commission. Another favored manner of introduction for pets aboard warships is by transfer from other craft. This is apt to occur only when one vessel is being placed out of commission and another and newer craft is being placed in commission at about the same time, and presumably at the same time. The crew of the same crews have been transferred thus from one ship to another, and even when a warship is merely being laid up for repairs and will retain a "skeleton crew" aboard it usually happens that there is quite a contingent of bluejackets to be shifted to some other floating home. These boys naturally like to take with them their pets or mascots, and the officers of ships to which they are thus transferred can seldom find much fault with mascots thus enlisted, such as veteran boats such as the USS New York or a warship, and there is no danger of them making trouble, as do some newcomers until they get their "sea legs." Many a cat or dog has begun an honorable career as a "mascot" rather ingrigoriously by wandering aboard as a "stray" or walt; being allowed to remain on suffrage, and finally winning a place in the affections of a large portion of the ship's company. After all, however, the method most commonly in vogue in the recruiting of officers aboard a ship, the blue-helmet takes aboard a pet that has caught 2s fancy on shore. Under such circumstances the tar who has discovered the mascot is accounted the owner so long as the pet remains aboard ship, and his rights of ownership are recognized, however much the other jackies may pet the mascot or teach him tricks. The officers of a warship usually prefer to have every pet thus individually owned, for it makes one individual responsible for the animal; for his feeding, etc., and for his behavior. In there are so many advantages, an scheme to designate a pet that will become the custom to designate one enlisted man as the keeper of each pet, even though the mascot has come aboard under circumstances that make it THE APPEAL. THE MASTER OF THE NEW C the common property of the crew. The problem of feeding a mascot is not one that deserve anybody any concern for, as may be originated by his indulgent mastos, but the responsibility for keeping a pet in his proper place aboard the vessel and seeing to it that he behaves, is a different matter. Especially must a sharp watch be kept on his department if there be several pets aboard, for then the animal jealousy that usually appears under such circumstances is fanned to a fierce flame, and free-for-all fights on deck would be a daily occurrence, save for the vigilance of the bluejackets detailed to keep order. Only persons who sellom visit United States warships have long been of the impression that dogs and cats constitute almost the sole representatives of the animal kingdom holding positions as naval mascots. This is very far from being the case. To be sure these household favorites do head the roster, numerically, of naval mascots, but they are by no means in a majority in the whole census of pets afloat. On the contrary, we find included in the census of the mascots of Uncle Sam's navy nearly every animal that could be mentioned, except the ones that are too large to find quarters aboard ship and that are not well-tamed, even by the blandishments of the bluejackets. Furthermore, a wide variety of birds have proven their eligibility to classification as naval mascots. Among the more or less dumb companions selected by Yankee tars to help enlist life aboard our warships there might be mentioned bears, Shetland ponies, monkeys, pigs, geese, deer, ducks, mice, burros, kangaroos, raccoons, canaries, parrots, an endless variety of tropical birds, and almost all the small fur-bearing animals. A warship spending most of her time along the seacoasts of the United States may have a small and relatively modest prospect lot, but on a cruise to the tropics or around the world, and she is likely to come home with a veritable menagerie aboard. Once home ports are reached, however, such a collection is rapidly thinned out, for many of the sailors send to their homes on shore or bestow upon friends the living trophies they have brought home, particularly the birds and monkeys and the quaint little dogs that are brought from China and Japan. It is no more than is to be expected that the pets aboard our warships are as a rule possessed of a wonderful line of accomplishments. When a warship is engaged in an extensive cruise, the mother, plenty of leisure at hand, may be one time or another, plenty of leisure at hand, may be one time or another, they devote a considerable portion of it to teaching tricks to the pets aboard. Many persons who have witnessed the really wonderful "stunts" done by naval mascots and have noticed four-footed mascots marching in parade with a naval battalion, and conforming to all the military orders given, have gained the impression that the bluejackets possess an especial and almost unique knack for instructing dumb animals. The secret of their success, however, lies in the devotion of much time to the task, combined with the circumstances that the tars have a seemingly inexhaustible supply of patience and an almost unfailing fund of good humor, which when reinforced by plentiful supplies of sweets, will ultimately win over the most stubborn furred or feathered captive. One of the most remarkable tricks the credit of any naval mascot is that of a fus cat that was domiciled aboard the cruiser cago a few years ago. This cat would sit on blind legs and "salute" with one front paw when band played the "Star-Spangled Banner," and person who knows how difficult it is to teach ks to cats can appreciate what this performe meant. The battleship Vermont has a goat w will smoke a pipe with evident relish and one the ships has as a mascot a bear that will enail in a ww well the delight of audiences of cheering tars course, the parrots on our warships have fear and wonderful vocabularies, and the monkeys adepts in clever tricks. Especially is this the w with a small red monkey on board the cruiser ester. In some instances a naval pet will face a fancy for some certain part of the ship, will not be induced to leave it under any circumstances. A striking case in point is that of an amo dog on the battleship Minnesota. He seed a home, high up on the bridge of the vesselibly because it is cool and alry, and reminisces his home in the far north), and he remains on the platform, eating and sleeping, no matter where the vessel be anchored or cruising in a heavy sea. One of the most remarkable tricks to the credit of any naval mascot is that of a famous cat that was domiciled aboard the cruiser Chicago a few years ago. This cat would sit on its hind legs and "salute" with one front paw when the band played "The Star-Spangled Banner," and any person who knows how difficult it is to teach the cat to dance, will be a nice meant. The battleship Vermont has a goat that will smoke a pipe with evident relish and one of the ships has as a mascot a bear that will engage in wrestling matches with members of the crew to the delight of audiences of cheering tars. Of course, the parrots on our warships have fearful and wonderful vocabularies, and the monkeys are adepts in clever tricks. Especially is this the case with a small red monkey on board the cruiser Chester. In some instances a naval pet will evince a fancy for some certain part of the ship, and will not be induced to leave it under any circling light. Point is that of an Eskimo dog on the battleship Vermont, which selected a home, high up on the bridge of the vessel (possibly because it is cool and airy, and reminiscent of his home in the far north), and he remains constantly on this lotty platform, eating and sleeping here, no matter whether the vessel be anchored in port or cruising in a heavy sea. DEMONSTRATION IN METZ Great stress is being laid in France upon an ag- tion that has prevailed in Metz lately, the New York Sun says.

It started one Sunday evening when a local association called La Lorraine Sportive attempted to give a concert in a room in a hotel which it had hired for the purpose. No sooner had M. Samain, the president, arisen to make an address of welcome in French than an inspector of police and eight constables took possession of the stage and announced that the conference had because it was a public meeting and contrary to them. There were loud protests, but in vain. Samain and the leader of the orchestra were arrested but the musicians went on playing. They played the "Marche Sambre et Meuse", which is a French air. The trumpets sounded French fanfares. The police ordered the audience to disperse; instead it hooted the police and shouted "Vive la Lorraine!". Finally it marched out singing the "Marselle!". The trumpets still playing. Samain was held prisoner for more than a week. The police endeavored to get a full list of members of La Lorraine Sportive, but failed. One of its commissioners, Seh, was arrested, however. Samain was interrogated and confessed on charges of inciting rebellion. Public opinion maintained at high tension and in the middle of it all. M. Foret, a member of an old family of Metz, was elected mayor, or as the Germans prefer to say, burgomaster. It is said the order for the police action came from the central authorities of the annexed province of Strassburg. Some are of the opinion that it was designed to provoke demonstrations which would cause postponement of the new constitutional scheme for Alsace-Lorraine. In the alarm at the violence the police French sentence revealed by the inside of the main and Seh were released without bail and no one seemed to know whether they will ever be prosecuted any further. Meanwhile the bitter feeling against Germanization is generally expressed in talk and finds vent in the papers in protests against the so-called constitution as a scheme of Prussian tyranny. In France there is unmistakable emotion in all classes over what is taken to be irrefragable proof of the innate loyalty of the sundered people to the French flag. Defective Page SEA'S BURIED GOLD LURE OF LOST TREASURE HUNTING NOT ALL FICTION. Millions Hidden Under Ocean—Some Has Been Recovered, but Much Remains to Be Found—Case of John Phipps. Boston.—Not all the tales of vast treasures buried deep under the sea are evolved in the minds of novelists. Robert Louis Stevenson and a dozen other writers have made such stories famous, but there have been men, real men, who have profited by secrets of buried gold, real gold. In fact, some of the real stories of lost and recovered treasure can give points to romance and beat it with ease. The successful adventures of John Phipps are a case in point. Phipps, who had been a ships carpenter, towards the end of the seventeenth century, spent years trying to convince various peers that there lay a vast Spanish treasure under the sea off Hispaniola. At last, the Duke of Albemarle lent him a ship, with the hat, after a year of adventure Phipps returned to England, bringing with him recovered treasure worth $1,000,000. Phipps' welcome when he returned to England with this weight resulted, through the influence, of the Duke of Albemarle, who shared his treasure, in knighthood and an appointment as governor of Massachusetts. Ever since the time of Phipps, the search for gold has gone on. However, although centuries have passed, many a million still lies on the bottom of the ocean, and it may continue there centuries longer. Perhaps the most valuable sunken treasure in the world is now lying at the bottom of Vigo bay. The Spanish, in 1702, to avoid capture, scuttled their largest ships laden with treasure, the harvest of four years' looting in Mexico. The treasure, in gold, silver and previous stones, is estimated to be worth $10,000,000. One of the islands of the Leeward group in the island of the Leeward group in the island of the latter Marie Galanti or Descarga La Flite, a French pirate of 100 years ago, buried gold and specie to the value of $1,000,000. Among the other treasures of the ocean is the wreck of the Black Laden With Treasure. Prince, which lies at the bottom of the sea off Sevastopol. The Black Prince was dispatched to Sevastopol with a general cargo for the army and $500,000 as service pay. It was sunk the day of its arrival by Russian gun fire, and went down with its cargo and treasure, now of which he never been recovered. Another English vessel containing a large amount in specie is the East. Indaman Grosvenor, now lying under water off St. John's, Cape Colony. As an amusing instance of the way in which lost treasure can grow by rumor, Captain Kidd's hoard is instructive. When Kidd was hanged in London in May, 1701, a shipmate of Kidd's said that the captain had hidden about $1,500 worth of plate and coin, which he had not been able to recover. From this small beginning sprang the innumerable stories of Captain Kidd's hoards, the last of which placed the amount at $5,000,000. Find $1,250,000 in Old House. London—Treasure trove to the value of $1,250,000 is reported from Jersey, where it was uncovered by Athelstan Riley while he was pulling down the ruins of an old manor house built in the thirteenth century with the object of using the stone to enlarge his present manor. The discovery includes ancient urns filled with spade guineas bearing the British arms on a spade-shaped shield. One urn bears the monogram of Emperor Vespasian, the Roman who flourished in the first century. Bay Travels 10,000 Miles. Atchison, Kan—Hawley, son of Major and Mrs. Horace D.

TAMING OF WILD HORSES Experiment in England With Untamed Beasts of Desert Results in Failure. London. Southwestern cowboys have always had their own peculiar methods of breaking and handling horses, and they have proved effective. During recent years, however, they have had little opportunity to try them on wild horses. It is more difficult to domesticate the wild horse than it is any other wild animal. The southwest will read with interest, then, of the experiment now being conducted in England. Some years ago Prjevofskoy, a Russian explorer, discovered a distinct wild horse in the Gobi desert, in the south of Mongolia. A herd of 30 cowboys were captured and landed in Europe. Most of them were sent to Russia, the estate of the Duke of Bedford, in England. They were ragged of coat and of awkward gait. All efforts to tame them have failed. Taming a Wild Horse. They will not submit to man's rule, and are therefore unserviceable. They become badly frightened when a man approaches nearer than two or three rods of them. The Russians claim that by methods of comparative anatomy and in other ways they have proven that the Gobl desert horse is a distinct species of the genus horse. The mane, forelock and tail are not unlike the domestic animal, and, like them, they tight and snort. Most naturalists have, until now, believed that the true wild horses with an unbroken line of wild ancestry were extinct. It is the general opinion that the domestic horse of today was mainly derived from three wild species, which have been named the steppe, forest and plateau varieties. The Gobi horse is a representative of the steppe variety. This horse in its wild state lives in the level districts and goes at night to the pasture lands and drinking places. At break of day it returns to the desert, where it rests until sunset. When there are nursing colts in the herd the animals always rest in the same place. They usually walk one behind the other, so that the region where they live is covered with deep tracks. INDIAN TRIBE NOT EXTINCT California Expedition Discovers Remnants of Kombos Near Head Waters of Sacramento. San Francisco—An anthropological expedition from the University of California, under Professor Kroebel, has reported the discovery of remnants of supposed extinct tribe of California in the head waters of the Sacramento river. The main body of the tribe, the Kombos, was eminated in a raid in 1870 by settlers. According to the members of the expedition, which has returned from the north, there are about 20 in the tribe at present. They were identified by arrow heads and other implements found in their camps, although the aborigines themselves are too wild to be approached. The university will try to have them rounded up by a troop of United States cavalry in order that their language and ancient customs may be attested to the interest of ethnology. Reports of the sheepherd Tetama county that sheepherd had been found killed by arrows led to the search for the Indians. COOKING PLANT IS PLANNED Proposed to Relieve Women of Kitchen Drudgery and Decrease Number of Old Maids. Boston—To have a cooking plant where all the members of a community can purchase their meals without having the bother of drudging in a kitchen and to have connected with this establishment an army of strong and skilled young women, whose mission shall be to keep clean the homes of the members of this uniquely run community, is a plan set on foot by a number of Winchester householders. The movement is being led by Mrs. Hormann Dudley Murphy. A plan would prove a good influence in decreasing the number of old maids and divorced women," said Mrs. Murphy. Farmers War on Pigeons. London—The first combined shoot of the Isle of Wight farmers and their friends, to rid the island of a plague of pigeons, which have been so desolate to crops, took place recently, which in spite of wet weather, nearly 1,000 inmates put in covers all over the island. In some cases poor and other poor, but many good $2.40 PER YEAR READSLIKEROMANCE CAREER OF MAN WHO STARTED AS PENNILLE BOY. New York—Frank Work is dead. He was almost the last to die of that little company of American millionaires who started life as penniless boys. He ran away from home when he was 9 years old with $6.30 in his pocket and he died at 92 worth many millions and with the original $5 gold piece still in his possession. Perhaps none among these American millionaires of the old school had such a picturesque personality as Work. His fast horses were the talk of former years. His ruddy face, surmounted by its snow white hair, was known everywhere in New York. He was born in Chillicothe, O. and shone brightly as a pupil by leaving home when his mother whipped him because he had been such a bad boy in school that the teacher had whipped him. Two whippings in one day were too much. He never saw his mother again. He worked his way down the Ohio and Mississippi rivers to New Orleans, where he began as an errand boy. He grew up in that city, saving his original $5 gold piece and gaining an education and a livelihood at the same time. But he early saw that the southern metropolis did not give him the chance he wanted, so he moved to New York. Here he entered Wall street and when Jim Fisk and Jay Gould and Daniel Drew were making their fortunes he was also busy making the brokerage house of Work Street Strong, and while he did not become the master of one of the world's greatest fortunes, he was still many times a millionaire. In the days of his Wall street activity he was regarded as a bold plunger and a good loser. No slump or panic could deter him from the course his judgment pointed out as best and this Frank Work. is perhaps the secret of his success. He could lose $108,000 on sugar and eat a hearty luncheon within the same half hour, as he actually did one day in Delmonico's. Work was a famous horseman. His harness horses were of national reputation. He was arrested on many occasions for fast driving through the streets of New York. He had a strong predilection for horses of a gray color and he would never consent to sell any horse he possessed. Some of his broken-down old champions survive him now in the pasture lots where he had pensioned them. The dead millionaire was of irascible temper and had many bitter quarrels with relatives and friends. He leaves his wealth to Mrs. Peter Cooper Hewett, his daughter, and to the children of Mrs. Fanny Burke-Roche, his other daughter. MARRY WEALTHY FARM GIRLS Indiana Teacher Tells Rising Generation How to Become Successful and Properusc. Kokomo, Ind.-A unique solution of the problems that confront a young man who wishes to become a prosperous and practical farmer was given before the Howard County Farmers' institute here by Edwin C. Druley. Others had suggested that the young man must cater to society and the theater and get acquainted with "city folk," but Mr. Druley brought the discussion to an abrupt close when he said: "The best thing for a young man like that to do is pick out a wealthy farmer, get a job on his farm, then marry one of his daughters." That remark brought considerable laughter. It was said with seriousness. Sam Lovett, speaking on the same subject, said: "The young farmer must go in society a bit, attend shows and smoke a trifle, otherwise he is not "in it" these days." This brought a sharp retort from C. L. Gates, who showed: "No young farmer ever smoked himself into success or procured a farm by attending the theater spitting and chewing, nor did he ever roll the soil out by shuffling cards. By economy and good management a young man may buy a farm." WERE YOU READ THE APPEAL? A National Afro-American Newspaper PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY ADAMS BROS.

Representative Hayes of California seems to be imbued with an intense prejudice against all colored races, and would bar all Asiatics. His immigration bill introduced recently in Congress provides that all laws now in force prohibiting or regulating the coming of Chinese or persons of Chinese descent into the United States be made to apply to Japanese, Koreans, Tartars, Malays, Afghans, East Indians, Lascars, Hindus, and all persons of Mongolian or Asiatic race or extraction. It is further provided by the bill that all persons affected by the proposed law now in the United States, other than those engaged as teachers, students, merchants, bankers, professional men, or persons touring the country for pleasure, must, within a year after the passage of the act, apply to the Secretary of Commerce and Labor for a certificate of residence. All such persons who have not a certificate of residence will be arrested and be subjected to deportation. Of course the bill will not pass this Congress but it is interesting as an evidence of the growth of color prejudice.

NO COLOR LINE AT CORNELL. President Jacob G. Schurman of Cornell University has decided that there shall be no color line at that institution. That was made clear when a letter written by him to Mrs. Gertrude A. Martin, adviser of women of the university, was given out. Dr. Schurman makes it clear that there can be no discrimination at Cornell on any ground, and that Afro-American girls have as much right in any of the university buildings as other persons. This means that they may room in Sage College, the woman's dormitory, which is a university building. Thus the two Afro-American women who have been trying to get into Sage College for a year or more have won their fight, and the 269 Co-eds, who have sought by petition to keep them out, have lost. It developed that not all of the students at Sage College were oppos d to the young women, as Dr. Schurman's letter points out. He writes that he has received two petitions on the subject. "One of these petitions," he says, "signed by 269 women students, begged that we deny the application for admission which you have recently received from two Afro-American women students; the other petition signed by 39 women students, objected to this discrimination." Dr. Schurman continues: "Afro-American students have resided in Sage College in the past, and I do not see any good reason why that policy should be changed. At Cornell all university doors must remain open to all students, irrespective of race or color, or creed or social standing, or pecuniary condition. The last Afro-American woman student who resided in Sage College writes me that she was politely and considerably treated by the women students, and that these years of residence in Sage College were the happiest of her life. "Though I am compelled to deny the petition of the 269 women students, I have not a particle of doubt that they will make the lives of the two incoming students equally happy."

"GLORIA IN EXCELSIS." A Baltimore paper had a long editorial with the above heading in the Palm Sunday issue and among other things was the following paragraph: Jesus Christ came preaching the Kingdom of Heaven among men. He came to set up His government with the Ten Commandments as the pillars of the temple of justice. He came to set forth the magna charta of the world's hope in the beatitudes. He came to establish the Golden Rule as the principle to govern the relations of men. There is one mortal enemy whose domination over the hearts of men must yet be broken. The perfect love that casts out all fear yet has sway. As long as men are fearful they will be unbelieving, as long as they are subject to fear they will lack spiritual force and courage. As long as timidity preys upon them they will not have the spirit of Him who entered Jerusalem saluted by song that He might pass into the shadows of Gethsemane overborne by sorrow. Hence, it is that the things eternal in human life, in human hope, in human character are the things that are brought forth by Jesus Christ to dominate men in their personal lives, in their domestic relations, in their civic associations, in their religious purposes. The high glory of Palm Sunday is the chief honor of the church. The church has no cause for being save as the temple of safety and salvation, of succor and blessing." In view of the conditions which exist in Baltimore it seems a mockery for the paper to print such matter. Jesus Christ has never been able to get into Baltimore, the Golden Rule has no place in the ethics of the inhabitants of that city reeking with injustice, inhumanity and brutal race prejudice. The things brought forth by Jesus Christ do not dominate the men of Baltimore in their personal lives or their civic associations and that is proved by the infamous segregation law just enacted by the city fathers of Maryland's metropolis. LINCOLN'S FRIEND SAVED Forty-seven years ago Abraham Lincoln wrote a personal letter to the postmaster general asking him to employ Miss Susan Dugger, a young woman of Carlsville, Ill., who was the sole support of her brother, a union soldier, crippled at Shiloh. Miss Dugger got a position and preserved the letter religiously. Secretary MacVeagh after reading the same letter a few days' ago ordered that Miss Dugger's name be kept on the treasury's list of employees, though she has been ill for more than a year. When an employee has been absent without pay that length of time it is customary to strike the name from the roll. Senator Cullom showed the letter to Secretary MacVeagh, who promised that Miss Dugger may have her old position, if she is ever able to work again. She is now 70 years old. She is an expert in detecting counterfeit money. The State Department will not countenance the exclusion of Afro-American immigrants from Canada. In response to inquiries it is learned that there was no Canadian law or regulation excluding members of the race not in prohibited classes and each the possessor of $25 cash and transportation. So Afro-Americans who are oppressed in the South may find homes in the great Canadian Northwest, if they have the money. One of the trustees of Roanoke College at Salem, Va., objected to the phrase, "the slaveholders' rebellion" in a certain history used in the college, although it is a textbook in sixty colleges, fifteen o them in the South. Strange to say the history was sustained by the trustees as a body; the lone trustee continues to howl. "Slaveholders' rebellion" is undoubtedly the correct term for the war between the North and the South. Editor Armand Capdevillo of the Bee and Editor J. G. Debarow-Celli of the Wasp, two French papers published in New Orleans, met on the streets of that city and indulged in a fist fight. Both received black eyes and of course under the Louisiana law which permits Caucasians to do as they please and punishes only Afro-Americans for their infractions of the law, the contestants were allowed to go free. The southern papers are full of a lot of stuff about Mrs. Washington, wife of the famous educator, having been "smuggled through from Paris, Texas, to Memphis, Tenn., in a drawing room of a Pullman car." That it is necessary for an intelligent, refined and cultured lady as Mrs. Washington to be "smuggled through" is a sad commentary on the barbarous laws of an alleged Christian land. Rev. Lyon of Baltimore, who made an address favoring the race segregation in Baltimore, is at it again. In a recent speech at the Delaware Conference of the M. E. Church at Philadelphia, said the brotherhood of man can not be realized in America, and suggested Africa as the proper place for the Afro-Americans. Bro. Lyon was there for many years, why did he not remain? Some of the Afro-American papers are shouting themselves hoarse over the agreement made in the settlement of the strike of the firemen on the Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific railroad. They claim that the Afro-American won, but did he? A careful perusal of the agreement will show that the race lost in several particulars. State house officials at Atlanta, Ga., placed the responsibility for the lynching of an Afro-American, at Lawrenceville, Ga., on Judge Charles Brand of the superior court of that place. Gov. Brown and Adj. Gen. Scott had the troops in readiness, but Judge Brand wired them not to send the troops as there was no danger of a lynching. The infamous Caucasian Oklahomaans are complaining to the Interstate Commerce Commission about rate discrimination, yet they do not hesitate to discriminate against Afro-Americans. Nowadays freight is of more importance than men, if the men happen to be black. The Holy Synod in Russia has issued an edict prohibiting Jews from bearing Christian names. The American Christians (?) who spend their time devising plans to degrade the Afro-American must look to their leaders. In Italy the authorities are trying to suppress a criminal organization known as the Camorra, but in many parts of the United States lynchers and mob-murderers are respected citizens. Hon. Harry S. Cummings, at present a member of the first branch of the Baltimore city council, was renominated by the Republicans of the seventeenth ward, receiving a vote of 1,151 to 458 for L. H. Davenport. Only one-tenth of the population of the United States is of unmixed descent. Probably 30,000,000 Americans have. Negro blood in their veins. _____ When Is a Caucasian Not a Caucasian? (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 mixture than English settlers. Many Creoles, like Cubans, have a dark complexion, and have been sustained by a strong angrily deny. Louisiana has an global terminology for the successive dilutions, from the mulatto and the quadron downward—or upward—which we printed some weeks ago. 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 for bidding 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 it must pass for white in whose genealogy records it can cover a few drops of negro blood. Such a case has lately stirred 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. They had always thought of them as white, and had associated only white children, now nobody would associate with 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 mutilating the communities with her. He appealed to the court to have her marriage annulled, and the court could do no less. So she was sent adrift with the rest of her family. Thus in this case two legal maxims had illustration, one by its truth, "Summa lex, summa injuria," and the other by its extreme contradiction, "De minimis lex non 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 so well, thru such so well—of a similar case in one of the cases 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 negro blood is to be held as washed out Set it at one-eighth or one-sixteenth, or one-thirty-second, or one-sixty-fourth, but at least set it somewhere. If we do not misremember, South Carolina has such a law. It is adding stupidity to cruelty to allow the taint to forever. And once we advise all white negroes in Louisiana, or anywhere else in the South to change their residence and leave their pedigree behind. There is such a case now in Baltimore, where the doctors can't tell whether a girl is white or black. Let them leave as white people and be received as white people. We do not doubt there are thousands of such people, both North and South, who have, by changing their home, changed their race and color. We have known such cases, and not all Creolees. Thus, as the bleaching process goes on, the conundrum will cease to concern them. When is a Caucasian not a Caucasian? MENTAL POWER NOT GROWING Anglo-Saxon Success Result of Character, Rather Than Intellec tual Superiority. Man is no longer growing in mental capacity if the conclusions of a British authority, Neville Chamberlain, are correct. He makes a distinction between intellect, pure and simple, and the qualities that together make up what is called character and finds it doubtful if the races often regarded as inferior are at any disadvantage in pure intellect. It is unfair to decide mental capacity by comparing those who have had the benefits of education—giving the accumulated experience of centuries—with semisavages who have been brought up in the bush. Two generations ago the Japanese were thought to be little better than barbarianed, of small intellect, and the Amus of Bengal and the aborigines of Australia were similarly regarded, but now they take front rank in modern universities, often excelling Europeans at examinations. More important to average success than great intellectual ability are the qualities constituting character—such as courage, earnestness, determination, judgment and sympathy. Even these traits must be preserved and strengthened by the same process of natural selection that has so powerfully influenced physical evolution, and the character of the individuals has made the character of nations. Anglo-Saxon success, past and future, may be looked upon as a result of national character, rather than any fancied intellectual Knowles Building, Boy's Hall, Stone Hall, Girls' Hall, Model Home ATLANTA UNIVERSITY, Atlanta, Ga.

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 our town are the country smoke enough cigars to 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. We must ensure that we 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 cigar, and help to maintain an institution which may become a great nucleus of good. We have a department in which we are teaching scores of boys and girls to be efficient cigar makers. Some of the graduates are earning from $10 to $25 per cigar, and large factories. Will you help us in our 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 all of our products. We offer 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. We ask for a portion of your patronage.

Williams, our dentist, has moved his office from the Philipsburg building to Room 64 Medical Block, corner of Seventh and Robert Street, near Minerva Drug Store, where he will be pleased to see all old as well as new patrons. "THE WISE GUY IN SOCIETY." The Attraction at the Star Next Week. Gaiety, frivolity, hilarity and high jingles will bring matters to a lively climax all next week at the Star, commencing with the usual matinee, Sunday, April 23, where Edmond Hayes, will play a most welcome visit. There is a certain dash and go to the performance affording a continuous whirl of merriment and display of color, brilliance and beauty. The piece is in two parts, the first is enclosed in a Gube from Slatington, "with John Dalton as principal comedians, and the second as Wise Guy," with Edmond Hayes in his familiar role of Spike Hennessy, the piano mover, and Bobby Archer as "Bozo." Jansen, a dashing blonde of the Lillian Russell type, is prima donna. Secondary roles are in competent keeping, and even those of minor importance are given marked attention. The chorus of this organization are "bewitching and attractive and do not belong to the species of faded-beauties. "UNCLE TOM'S CABIN." Which Will be Seen at the Grand Next Week Al. W. Martin's production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" which will be seen at the Grand the week of April 23, caught the public fancy. The theatres where the offering has been made are said to have been crowded at every performance. For a play holding the years within which period not a single actor was during which it was entirely absent from the theatre, "Uncle Tom's Cabin" still exhibits wonderful vitality. Scorned, ridiculed and rejected of the elect in the more important theatres a few years ago, it is now welcomed in the theatres where thousands are weeping and laughing over the incidents nightly. The scenes which are displayed could easily not be improved. The company numbers over fifty persons, many of whom are well known to St. Paul the剧院 goers from former visitors with various attractions, Shetland ponies and six maneating Siberian bloodhounds are trained to participate in the drama. Ladies you can get just as good "French Dry Cleaning" done by the Valet Tailoring Co., 155 E. Sixth St. in New York, NY, not let them do it for you? Old General McClellan Didn't Want to Hear It, So He Went to the Barber's. "The last Democratic attorney general of the state of Maine, old General McClellan," the old resident said, "once lived here in Kansas City. He came west just after the Republicans had gained control of the state, which guided him with affairs in New England. "The general was a religious man, but he preferred his own method of worship to that of any church. "But in spite of his pet aversion his wife persuaded him to accompany her one Sunday morning to hear a preacher who at that time was noted in Kansas City for his vociferous oratory. "The McClellans had a pew close to the front of the church," and as the general strode down the aisle his long, white snow white beating far down on the ground, the clatter most impinging figure. The preacher ascended the pulpit, read a verse from the Bible, and uttered the first words of his sermon. "But he had progressed only a little way when he paused in dismay. The old general, realizing that the part of the service which he most disliked—the preaching—had begun, picked up his hat, walked down the aisle with a stride as imposing as that with the one he had entered, and left the church. "After a pause the preacher continued with a rather frenzied address. He finished with an imposing, well-rounded sentence. The organist began to play, when—back into the church stalked General McClellan, but without his beard! He had made use of his time to have his face cleanage that he had been contemplating for some time."—Kan in City Times. Self in Everything. Let us always remember that nothing befits us that is not of the nature of ourselves. There comes no adventure but wears to our soul the shape of our everyday thoughts; and deeds of heroism are only offered to those who have, for many long years, been heroes in obscurity and silence. And whether you climb up the mountain or go down the hill to the valley, whether you journey to the end of the world or merely walk around you house, none but yourself shall you meet on the highway of fate. If Jo da go forth tonight, it is toward Eden, and no one will be for betrayal be lacking; but let Socrates open his door, he shall find Socrates asleep on the threshold before him and there will be occasion for wisdom — Masterlink.

It is surprising how many men there are who do not desire their sons or anyone else to adopt their calling. But is it wise thus practically to speak fl of your business? It is a good sign when a man is proud of his work or calling. Men are frequently heard finding fault with their particular business, deeming themselves unfortunate because fastened to it by the necessity of gaining a livelihood. They thus destroy all their efforts in the work and keep shifting from one thing to another until they are finally failures in life. A man should put his heart into everything he does. There is no profession that has not its peculiar cares and vexations. No man can escape annoyance by changing his business. There is not any mechanical business altogether agreeable. Commerce is affected, like all other pursuits, with trials and unwelcome duties. Schoolgirls as Mountain Guides. One of the novel occupations that the summer tourist business has developed is that of a guide to the high points of the continental divide on the Moffat road, and this unusual avocation has been selected by Miss Grace Nelson, a Denver high school girl, who is spending the summer at Corona, at the crest of the continental divide. Miss Nelson has explored the region around the station on the top of the divide and is daily engaged in taking parties of tourists to see the emerald lakes that lie hidden among the shadows of the giant crags and across the white fields of snow which lie unmeted beneath the glare of the July sun. She has been able to add to her bank account during her vacation, besides paying all her expenses at the crest of the divide by this novel means of money-getting. Commercial Mausoleum. A company has been formed in Cincinnati to crest and rent a mousetube. This is to be a large building, where bodies may be taken by survivors who own no burial plot and who have no desire to buy one. There will be compartments in the building, arranged like shelves in a library, and on these the bodies are to be placed. By an evaporating process they will be reduced to dust. It is the purpose of the undertakers of this business scheme to rent or to sell compartments of all sizes, ranging from the "single" to the "large family" size.
