NO. 17. TRUE PARK for the BIG GAME BY W.R.FELD copyright by FIELD AND SCREAM HE dream of years was soon to be realized, as our hunting party boarded the Northern Pacific train, which was to carry us to the western part of Mont- tana for a ten-days' trip in the Flathead country. T Our party was composed of H. R. Arme ling, Mary Hedges, Bert Hill and man, Alex. After an interesting ride through the pines, and past the small ranches along the Big Blackfoot river, we arrived at the town of Ovando and took quarters at the Goodfellow Hotel. After supper we found "Marsh," our guide, and began mixing medicine for the big hunt. We inquired as to the prospects of game such as none of us had ever hunted. We finally agreed to the following: Deer, elk, goats and possibly boar, as our two weeks' time was not sufficient to make the trip to make the trip to the sheep country. The following morning was paused in looking up and talking with the numerous guides, as about 30 per cent of the town's inhabitants follow this occupation. Shortly after noon, our train, composed of eight pack horses, six saddle horses and three colts, started on the sixy-mile journey to the proposed camp. We had lodged but a few miles north from the village, and into the timber, when we came to the well-blazed line which marks the southern boundary of the Lewis and Clark National Forest, within which Glacier National Park has recently been created. Along the well-defined trail we were continually reminded by the conspicuous signs posted by the Forest Rangers of the warning to all campers in regard to fires. The trail was over a rough trail, crossing and recrossing Young's creek, up and down banks, so steep that we would often dismount and lead the horses across. The valley at this point widens out into an open park of several hundred acres called the "Big Prairie," which is now fenced and used as a horse pasture by the forest rangers. At the lower end of this pasture the river makes a wide deepeing over the top, joining the river again near the confluence of the White river and the South Fork. Here we made our permanent camp in a small open park. For three days we had marsh tell us his seventy years' experience in that part of the country as guide, trapper and hunter, which made us all the more keen to try our skill on the game for which we had made the long journey. On the morning of October 1st, as soon as it was light enough to see, Bert and I crossed the river to the lake. The lick we had needed to pay before, Helmy, Marsh and I went up on the mountain back of our camp to look for goats, while Ben set to work fixing up the camp. We hunted along the top of the mountain for a short distance, when presently Marsh called our attention to what he thought was a goat lying out on a point of rocks on the west side, and sure enough it settled all doubt by getting up and walking out into plain view. We decided at once to try for this one. It was necessary to walk back a mile to a point where we could get down onto a ledge which we could follow, or half crawl along back to the lake covered, with slide rock, he made walking dangerous, and it was impossible to proceed noiselessly, as we would start rocks to rolling over the edge every few steps. At length we reached the belt of timber which hid the goat pasture. Heiny took the right side of the ridge, and I the left, and we began to move toward the spot where the goat had been seen. We had gone but a short distance when I heard a shot and going in his direction I saw him and Marsh. Heiny had shot the goat which ran out near the edge of the hill and left leaving against the spurredurns. It proved to be an old one with two of its lower teeth missing. We took the skin, head and part of the meat on what proved to be a most hazardous trip, as the west side of the mountain is a series of narrow ledges. Banks of clouds were rising in the west. After two hours of strenuous walking through the underbrush and windfalls, we came out into the park back of our camp just as it began to storm. Neither Charles nor Bert were in camp, and on my part, at least, were the cause of some uneasiness, as it was raining and both had left camp with only light sweaters. In the morning as it was growing light, I gazed out through the tentfly to see the mountains white two-thirds of the way down. A few minutes later I heard a shot up the river, which I immediately answered with a couple more. After Bert, we moved across the stream to camp. They had shot a deer within a mile of the camp, and had found a bunch of elk which they followed until night. Each was unable to find the other, and both considered it dangerous to try to walk to camp in the darkness and gathering storm. The following day was spent hunting through the river bottoms and lower benches, but without results, only a few deer being seen. That evening we decided on a strenuous hunt THE APPEAL. We dressed the elk and continued our hunt for goats. We were crossing deer tracks every few feet. On coming out into a little park I found one track that looked good enough to follow, and had hardly ten rods when I heard him jump out of bed. He came into an open spot on the high side of the ridge, and stood looking at me on the top of his neck and fired, cedars. I drew a bead on his neck and fired, cedars. I clean miss. The second shot hit the mark, and a point black-tail buck was added to the list, and went a long way toward repairing my feelings over the elk. The reunited party had supper together that evening. Ben put goat, elk and venom steals to order. After the big feed was over and pipes filled, we sat around the fire in the teepee tent, and planned a further invasion of the game zone. The result was Bert's baggage of the largest goat the trip, and Charles getting a black-tail buck. The shooting of Bert's goat was quite a remarkable feat. He and Ben had just about given up looking for goats and were standing on the edge of a cliff, looking down at a trail along the side of the ledge, when a goat appeared walking leisurely. The animal was about fifty feet horizontally and three hundred feet vertically from him when he shot, lifting the goat square between his shot, it instantly. Any struggle on the part of the man who would have resulted in his rolling over the cliff would have been impossible to reach him. The two men crawled down over the slide rock out to where the goat lay, and after much careful Defective Page ACK TRAIN CROSSING THE FLAT RIVER work, secured the head and hide and climbed back to the summit. Our game supply now consisted of three deer, three goats and one elk. Charles decided to stay in the valley with Marsh until he shot an elk, while the rest of us took a part of the pack-train, loaded on all our game and left at noon next day for the railroad. By no means the least interesting part of this trip was the chance to view the Lewis and Clark National Forest, where for ten days we lived near to Nature, the only evidence of man's having intruded there being the cut out pack trail of the forest rangers' cabins. The timber ranges in size from the giant Norway pile of six feet in diameter to the 6-inch lodge pole thickets. The vivid green of these, brightened by the yellow fall tint of the aspen, against the snow capped mountains made a picture which no camera nor brush could do justice to, giving one the feeling that it was good to be alive. Small game was numerous; three varieties of grouse, Franklin blue and ruffed. Pine squirrels, whisky jackets, nagpies and many smaller birds added interest to the trip. The act of ex-President Roosevelt in setting aside these immense tracts of rough, tumbled country or national forests, to be looked after by the government, providing a home for the life and a recreation spot for future generations, will stand as one of the great acts of his administration. magpies and many emmler birds added interest to the trip.

Less Lonely Club Confident that New York is the loneliest city in all this wide world, the New York World says, several men and women have organized the Less Lonely league, with headquarters at 57 East One hundred and Twenty-sixth street. The purpose is to provide a suitable meeting place for persons of enfeiture and education who are denied home life. L. J. Wing, a well-to-do manufacturer, is the originator and president of the Less Lonely league. His own loneliness is responsible for the movement, which is expected to gather thousands of recruits in New York and throughout the United States when it gets fairly way. It was through a letter to a newspaper that Mr. Wing got in touch with the other men and women who fell in with his plan. "Long ago I realized that New York was a mighty lonely place," Mr. Wing said. "I mean for one accounted to associating with cultured persons. At first I thought that through a church I might meet congenial people. I attended one.

Geese will live to a great age, and some few years ago I came across a very vulnerable goose (male or female I cannot say) in Westminster in unexpected circumstances. I was walking from Milnthorpe to Arnside and at Ganaide found an acquaintance sitting on a seashore bench feeding a pet goose with biscuits stepped in ale. He told me that this goose had been in his family for over 40 years and was partial to beer, stout and even wine. One of the most remarkable records of the longevity of geese with which I am acquainted is to be found in an old book entitled 'Travels in Scotland', by the Rev. James Hall, M. A., London, two volumes, 1807. On a visit to a Mr. Charles Grant of Elchies, Stirlingshire, the author was in Geese will live to a great age, and some few years ago I came across a very venerable goose (male or female I cannot say) in Westmorland in unexpected circumstances. I was walking from Milthorpe to Arnsle and at Ganasa found an acquaintance sitting on a seashore bench feeding a pet goose with biscuits steeped in ale. He told me that this goose had been in his family for over 40 years and was partial to beer, stout and evengin. One of the most remarkable records of the goose is the book with which I am acquainted is to be found in a book of M. A. London in Scotland," by the Rev. J. John Hall M. A. London, two volumes, 1807. On a visit to a Mr. Charles Grant of Elchies, Stirlingshire, the author formed of a gander that had been killed by accident after living at the same place for "above 80 years." ORIGIN OF MAIL CAh Railway Postal Service First Operated in Missouri. William A. Davis, Before the War, Postmaster at St. Joseph, Devised System Now in Vogue for Distributing Mail En Route. St. Joseph, Mo.—Progress in the carrying and distribution of United States mails has been remarkable in this country in the last fifty years. A half century ago, the first railroad west of the Mississippi river, from Hannibal to St. Joseph, Mo. was constructed, and on this road the railway mail service of the country had its origin and inception. Then, only the mails for the whole western country came in bulk on freight and passenger trains to be distributed in ton lots and carried to many destinations by courier, by backboard, horseback and stage lines, the only methods in those days. It remained for William A. Davis, postmaster at St. Joseph from 1855 to 1861, to invent and inaugurate the great system now in vogue. Before this time the mails, all mixed and in bulk, were carried to some central distributing point. Independence, Mo., and St. Joseph later was another. Whatever the railway built the task all came to the St. Joseph office, in distributing the entire overland mail. The idea occurred to Mr. Davis that these mails could be distributed while in transit. It seemed to him in every way possible and desirable. So he wrote to the people in Washington for authority to fit up some cars on the Hannibal & St. Joseph railroad to try out the experiment. The authority came and Mr. Davis went to the railway headquarters at Hannibal and superintended the arrangement of several way cars with pigeon holes, doors, windows and other conveniences and William A. Davis. the initial run with a carload of mails was made from Hannibal to St. Joseph in record time, the mails properly distributed and ready for the overland stages, couriers, etc. The first trial was so satisfactory that other cars were brought into requisition and soon a most remarkable change for the better was made in the receipt and distribution of mails. The great railway mail service had been imputed. The problem of forwarding overland mails without delay was solved, and Mr. Davis was soon made a special agent of the department and given full charge of the branch of the service which he had originated. William A. Davis, inventor of the railway mail service, was born in Barren County, Kentucky, in September, 1809. In early youth he went to Virginia, where he entered the postal service, at Richmond and other places, and with his career in St. Joseph he had been in the postal service about fifty years. The first car for the distribution of the mails was an old-time "way" car, fitted up a pigeon holes. Extra windows were arranged and the "tributors" used candies to assist in lighting the cars. Mr. Davis made a trip on the first car as far as Palmyra, Mo., and then left the work with an assistant while he returned to Hannibal for the second car. There are many old railroaders yet alive who remember the first mail cars. GEESE ON THE STAGE REBEL Object to Understudy for Singer in Halle Performance of Humperdinck's "Konigskinder." Berlin.—An amusing incident occurred this week at a performance of Humperdinck's "Konigskinder" at the Halle opera house. Live gese are employed for the Halle production in contrast to the papier mache variety which indulge in make believe cakery at Berlin. The prima donna who regularly sings the part of the goose mald was taken ill suddenly and it became necessary to obtain an understudy. When the latter, however, went to the stage the goose cakery attained the intrusion of the gese. They became so enraged they threatened to do the singer bodily injury. The conductor of the orchestra had to stop the performance until the gese could be quelled. They refused to subside until the familiar figures of the wood chopper and the broom maker came upon the scene. Woman Fell in With Bloomer Craze Forty Years Ago, and Has Kept It Up. Jersey City—Talking of your Broadway beauties in their freakish harem skirts, why not give a little attention to this old lady, who has worn 'em for ever when the bloomer movement long before the bloomer movement freaks were born and worn 'em with entire satisfaction to herself at least to this very day. She is Miss Fowler of Vineland N. J. She donned the costume she is seen wearing in the illus Forty Years In Bloomers. tration at the time the bloomer move ment first started 40 years or more ago. What has become of the other bloomerites no one knows, but this particular bloomerite blooms on in her quaint old costume, and doesn't condescend to notice skittish rivals whi prance up Broadway wearing duds that are feeble variations of her original dress. CATTLE GUARD IS EFFECTIVE Novel Device Prevents Cow From Wandering on Rails and Meeting Injury. Chicago.—The old story about someone asking George Stephenson, the inventor of the locomotive, what would happen to a train if a cow wandered on the line, to which the latter replied he would "be very sorry for the cow," seems to have found a sympathetic echo in the western states in the form of a novel cattle guard on railways, the practical utility of which is demonstrated in the illustration. The device claims to effectively prevent cattle straying up the railway line and thus meeting with injury or death from oncoming trains. As the cow walks along the track she meets Novel Cattle Guard. a titling platform between the rails which tips up as she steps upon it. The cow, imagining her progress to be barred and not endowed by nature with a superabundance of intelligence—a fact which the wily inventor must accept, round the obstruction proceeds to compliment the exceeding ingenuity and foresee of its originator by walking off the line altogether. SAUERKRAUT LQNGEVITY AID Rev. Flynn of California Makes Some Peppery Remarks on Diet and Fat—Two Meals Enough. Cincinnati—"Any man who is so fat that he cannot see his feet while walking, ought to be arrested," said the Rev. Earl Flynn of Berkeley, Cal. to a Y. M. C. A. audience the other day. "Two meals a day are enough for the average person to eat and remain in a healthy condition. The person who eats three meals a day needs 12 hours sleep to refresh himself." Mr. Flynn, who is 75 years old, continued: "The food which collects the longevity germ is sauerkraut. The man or woman who keeps on a diet of this kind, ought to live a century or more. Sauerkraut is very nutritious and should be on the table of everybody." Continuing his health talk, Mr. Flynn wound up with saying: "To be healthy every minister must sweat twice a week. A good many ministers only sweat once a month, when they draw their salaries." $2.40 PER YEAR Kansas City Man Who Bottles Smoke —Unique Task Performed by Government Employees in Washing- ton—Raise Frogs for Profit. Washington—As a part of the task of compiling the thirteenth census of the United States, the bureau will publish a report on the various occupa- tions by which men and women in this country earn their daily bread. Though it will be many months before this re- source be given to the public, a conservative studies shows the num- ber of classifications of industry at between 7,000 and 8,000. It seems a safe prediction to state that there will be found but one man in the entire country making a living from bottling the smoke of burning hickory wood. This man, who lives in Kansas City, contends that his bottled toke, let loose in an air tight compartment in which meat has been placed, will produce the same effect upon the meat, though cured by hickory smoke in the kitchen. Nor would the uninitiated expect to find profit in raising bullfrogs for their legs. Two New Jersey women, however, are making a good livelihood by doing and a certain California woman an obtains over $100 an ounce whole- sale for the seeds of petunias. In some of the reports of the census censurers in the field are found tab- lular in manual that they require no end of labor to classify them at the bureau. On one man frankly asserted that he was a "booze fighter," and another who works in a Shows Danger in Digging Wells. saloon, styled himeslf as a "destroyer of men." Such occupations as "pouncer," in a hat factory; "tobles," a maker of stegies; "whittler," in a straw works; "dock walloper," a longshoreman; "vibrator," in a clock factory; "toner," in connection with oysters; "teaser," in a glass factory; "scabbler," in quarrying; "flosser," in a corst factory, and "dubber," in ship building, are all unusual occupations that must be listed. In Washington especially are there a large number of persons who earn their living by performing unusual tasks. The majority of them are employed by the government. There is a young man in the national museum—Henry Hendley—who is known as the official portrait-bust maker of Indian features for a unique portrait gallery of the North American redskins. He is an expert modeler in papier mache of things past, present and future for the National museum. Along similar lines is the work of Edwin Howell, a maker of maps. In his workshop he evolves relief maps of certain sections of the country which not only indicate rivers and mountains and towns, but all the minerals, rocks, flowers, trees, and varying soils to be found there. One of the most interesting of his maps was made for the marine hospital and public health service. It is intended as a warning against allowing people ignorant of geological conditions to dig wells, and a plea for them to be expert tea and coffee tasters in the treasury department who tell the value and grades of these commodities by placing a few grains on the tongue. And in the department of agriculture there is a squad of young men who eat drugged foods to determine just how poisonous they are. Topeka, Kan.-Stuffing cleaned rabbits with quail and shipping them out of the state has enabled many hunters to evade the quail-shooting law in Kansas this season. Prof. L. L. Dyche, state fish and game warren, who has been involved in the investigations, said warrants probably would be sworn out for the hunters. Noted Inns to Go.

A BILLIONAIRE. A suit involving a billion dollars has been filed in the Court of Claims at Washington by Elbert R. Robinson, an Afro-American of Chicago, Ill., in which the government is made defendant. The action involves the patent rights of an electric signal system which Robinson claims were granted him by the government, and which he claims have been infringed by other patents. Robinson, who is an attorney, will argue his own case when it comes up before the court on Monday. If Robinson wins he will have the distinction of being the first Afro-American billionaire.

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 op- M. B. LOOKS FOR "PENNY POSTAGE." Hitchcock Points to Probability in Reducing Postal Deficit. Postmaster General Hitchcock is confident that "penny postage" is a probability of the near future, as the result of reductions in the $17,600,-000 postal deficit which existed when he took charge of the Postoffice Department.

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 considerately 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." The two Afro-American students who applied unsuccessfully last year, and whose renewed applications forced the issue this year, are Rose Vassar, of Lynchburg, Va., and Pauline Ray, of Geneva. THE APPEAL is glad that in spite of the many clouds which hang over the pathway of the race, that there is an occasional rift through which we may see the dawn of a brighter day. "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 Carlinville, 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 day's 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 fthem 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 "smugged 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 "smugged 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 is- sued an edict prohihiting Jews from bearing Christian names. The American Christians (?) who spend their time devising plans to degrade the Afro-American must look to their laurels. 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. 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 admixture than English settlers. Many Creoles, like Cubans, have a dark complexion, and have been suspected of negro blood, which they agnily deny. Louisiana has an elabor terminology for the successive dilutions, from the mulatto and the quadroon 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 c. Causian—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 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 married to a horrible plague. They had always thought of them selves as white, and had associated only with white people. 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. The 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 illustrated, 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 one of his officers 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 could at least set a line where the propentent 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 go on forever. And once more, 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 name, changed their race and color. We don't know how not all Creoles. Thus, as the bleaching process goes on, the conundrum will cease to concern them. When is a Caucasian not a Caucasian? ```markdown ``` An unsecured Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education, offers a variety of courses in English and English High School courses with industrial Training.

St. Paul, Minn., April 24, 1911. Mr. J. Q. Adams, City My Dear Mr. Adams: As I had the honor, if such it may be denominated, of being the first editor of THE APPAL, then known the "Western Appeal", have watched it in the past, perhaps more interest than that generally evinced by others. Having been so closely connected with its early history, and knowing something of the hardships that surrounded it then, and doubtless do still, I can more fully appreciate the efforts you have put forth in maintaining it and making it on the high plane upon which it is always stood, than can those who are not familiar with the business side of it. Since the advent of THE APPEAL there have been a number of publications started in this state under various auspices that passed from the field of action after brief and fittul training. This is still doing business at the old stall. Now, Mr. Editor, as the paper has been in existence since June 1885, and you became associated with it in 1886, this year is the twenty-fifth year of your connection with it as editor and manager, and I believe that this fact should entitle you to the position of assistant at the hands of the people whom you have served so long and well. Last year, through your efforts, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the birth of the paper was celebrated in a most fitting manner, and the entertainment and souvenir edition in connection with that occasion have been published elsewhere for that man. Since it was your able management that maintained the paper, some honor and credit is due you; and, I am one who delights "to do honor unto those to whom honor is and believe the people of St. Paul. And believe that when you will be glad to join in celebrating your twenty-fifth anniversary as editor of THE APPEAL. Your able management of the Quarter-Centennial Celebration of St. Paul was seen and recognized by every one who present; and, if you, yourself, will take charge of the matter as you did then, I am confident that the public will feel satisfied that everything that can be done will be done to make the occasion a grand success, and that with me the people will willingly say go ahead and we'll hold your coat." Very truly yours, F. D. Parker. Minneapolis, Minn., April 25, 1911. J. Q. Adams, Esq. Since the Quarto-Centennial Celebration of last September, commemorating the twenty-fifth anniversary of the birth of THE APPEAL, was such a point of view; and, is remembered, with pleasure, by every one who had the good fortune to be present on that, never-to-be-forgotten, occasion, and other such an affair would be held with delight by all who were present, as well as by those who, for some reason or another, were deprived of that blessed privilege; and in any case of any immunity if it was again offered to them. I also recall the fact that the twenty-fifth anniversary of your association with THE APPEAL occurs this year; and I feel that this is an event as oratory of being celebrated more often than more so. For, it undoubtedly is owing entirely to your managerial ability and indefatigable labors that THE APPEAL has been enabled to withstand the storms that have wrecked many like ventures upon the rocks of adversity. And it does not matter how it fits, it fits fitting and proper for the people of the Twin Cities to show a just recognition of the herculean task you have accomplished in maintaining an organ in their interest for a quarter of a century, by tendering you a testimonial on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the paper, or, on such other date that in your judgment is more convenient or suitable. I would therefore suggest, if it meets your approval—as I know it will, the patrons of THE APPEAL and your friends generally agree in that idea along the lines employed in the Quarto-Centennial Celebration of THE APPEAL last year. I have no especial suggestions to make, as the success of last year's affair, as well as many other social functions that have been under your control, to enable you to manage them "to a queen's taste," therefore, I feel sure you would carry this to a successful issue, if left to follow the bent of your own inclination. I am satisfied that I voice the sentiments of the people of Minneapolis. Respectfully yours, R. S. Brown, M. D. By a singular coincidence the letters above, reached the APPEAL of the people, indeed, to receive such kind words and to be made to feel that we have not lived and labored in vain these many years, and that these people were so well pleased with the Quarto-Centennial of THE APPEAL, that we would be pleased to hear from any others who desire to express themselves in regard to the proposed celebration of our twenty-fifth anniversary before fully deciding what action to take in the matter. So let hear from the patrons of THE APPEAL. Prices on everything seems to be going up, and the newspaper publisher is among the sufferers. The price for setting type has been advanced ONE-THIRD, therefore a higher price must be charged for advertisements and articles published in the papers. Don't forget this. Dr. H. I. Williams, our dentist has moved his office from the Philipsburg building to Room 64 Medical Block, corner of Seventh and Robert Street, over Mansur's Drug Store, where he will be pleased to see all old as well as new patrons.

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 cigars. We have 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 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 $15 daily. You will help to maintain our institution, and 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 our graduates are earning from $10 to $3 per week in the larger factories. We will have a 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 makes the boys and girls and to build for their 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.

Barnum has puzzled many people with his powers, and apart from the reduction of comedy he has provided much food for thought. There is fun galore for all and is unanimously funny situations of the subjects cause uproars of laughter from the very end of the show. Some of the features of the program will be "The Human Wood Pile," "The Jockey Races," "The Dentist," "The Rock Breaking Scene," "Heavy Catsapery," "Mental Suggestion" and many others.
