CARDINAL GIBBONS
P
REPARATIONS are actively in progress for a celebration that will rank as one of the most interesting events in the history of the Catholic church in America. The forthcoming event is a jubilee observance in honor of Cardinal Gibbs, the head of the church in America. What is more, it is to be a double jubilee,—something that is most unusual if not indeed unique. The date of this significant anniversary is June 30, which is the golden jubilee of Cardinal Gibbs' ordination to the priesthood and the silver jubilee of his elevation to the position of Cardinal.
nt anniversary is June 30, which is the golden card of Cardinal Gibbons' ordination to the priest and the silver jubilee of his elevation to the ion of Cardinal. swever, the observances of this significant event by no means be confined to the final day of June, he contrary will be commemorative events he kind or another that will occur at intervals
However, the observances of this significant event will by no means be confined to the final day of June. It will be commemorative events of one kind or another that will be held for a period of several weeks. The present plan is
to have the chief events of June 30 take the form of a service in the Cathedral of the Cardinal's home city of Baltimore, to which church dignitaries from all over the country will be invited, to be followed by a reception in the neighboring city of Washington which will take the form of a tribute by American officialdom to the venerable head of the church and will be attended by President Taft and all the highest officials of the nation. It is expected that other cities will also desire to take the form of a visit in connection with this dual anniversary and if he continues to enjoy the good health for which he has been famous for so many years it is probable that he will wish to accept invitations for later dates from churches at more distant points so that it will be strange if the eminent wearer of the red hat is not kept busy for several weeks acknowledging the popular expression of good wishes in one form or another. All this, too, in the face of the fact that the Cardinal rather depreciates the plans which have been in the making and must take to take cognizance of the double jubilee. What is the first of the year, prominent clergy and laymen in the plans for commemorative exercises the cardinal expressed the hope that there would be as little display as possible.
Finally there will be ceremonies connected with the laying of the corner stone and later the dedication of what is to constitute the permanent tribute to Cardinal Gibbons in connection with the jubilee—namely, a Cardinal Gibbons Memorial Hall to be erected on the grounds of the Catholic University of America in the District of Columbia. He is planned to erect a monumental structure that will be the center of the university and will be notable architecturally as well as serving a useful purpose at the great seat of learning which has become the center of Catholic activities on this continent. The funds for the erection of this commemorative building are being raised by a nationwide public subscription and thousands of dollars have already been pledged. The great interest which Cardinal Gibbons has always manifested in the university makes it particularly fitting that the enduring testimonial to his career should take the form of an addition to this seat of learning.
The double jubilee in June—the first event of the kind ever celebrated in this country will be followed in July—on July 23, to be exact—by an annual event. The memorable occasion of the summer will be the Cardinal's attainment of the seventy-seventh milestone in a very active life. It is but little less significant than the other event if no other reason than the remarkable vigor and vitality constantly manifested by the eminent churchman. Indeed, no person meeting him casually and unaware of his identity would suspect that he has attained so advanced an age. Furthermore it would be difficult to find a better example of the benefits of a simple and systematic mode of life.
Many persons not familiar with his early career have the impression that Cardinal Gibbons is a son of it. On the contrary, he was born in Baltimore, where the diocese of which he is now archbishop in addition to the primate of the Catholic church in the United States. To be sure he was of Irish parentage and during his boyhood his father took him to Ireland where he received the groundings of a liberal education. He was but a youth when he returned to
in philosophy and theology was ordained a priest on June 30, 1861—the anniversary of which event is commemorated by the double jubilee now in prospect.
Only a work of the churchman was in Baltimore, with which city his church services be so conspicuously identified all through his long career. Later, however, after serving as private secretary to the late Archbishop Spalding he was consecrated bishop of North Carolina and remained in that state four years. Then followed five years of service with similar responsibilities in the state of Virginia. In May, 1877, he was appointed the right of succession to the archbishop of Baltimore, and less than year he was formally installed as Archbishop. He was one of the American prelates to visit Rome in 1883 to outline the work of the third plenary council and his marked ability in this connection was at once noted by Pope XIII XIII, who forthwith appointed him to preside over the plenary council. During the meeting of the council the bishop was on the approbation of the pope who, to show his devotion, nated him for cardinal—the signal honor, the acquisition of which forms the second object of the commemorative program now planned.
It seems peculiarly appropriate that the permanent memorial to Cardinal Gibbons in connection with his jubilee should take the form of a hall at the Catholic university for if there is one project for which this prince of the church has ever been a champion and an earnest worker it will be self-same center of higher education under Catholic education. It will be remembered that Cardinal Gibbons laid the foundation of the university and officiated at the formal opening of the institution, whereas the activities of his long service as chancellor of the university are fresh in the minds of all who keep in touch with educational progress.
As has been hinted above the personal habits of the cardinal are of the simplest character. He is ever active and a subscriber to the theory that change of occupation is the ideal rest. Cardinal Gibbons was long known as an early riser, getting up at 6 o'clock 5:30 in summer and sediment later at 6 o'clock 10:30. He usually says mass at 7 o'clock, this being the matter whether he is at the cathedral in Baltimore, or at a modest summer retreat in the country, or at some quiet seaside resort. After mass comes breakfast and an interval is devoted to reading the newspapers, for the cardinal keeps closely in touch with all current events, not forgetting a decidedly keen interest in what is transpiring in the baseball field.
The main portion of the morning is apportioned between replying to correspondence, receiving letters and calls, for the latter the cardinal can find all too little measure, but he has already attained high rank as a contributor to literature of the church, his book "The Faith of Our Fathers" being regarded by eminent scholars
this country and entered St. Charles college in Maryland from which he graduated with high honors at the age of twenty-three. He then entered the seminary at Baltimore, after the usual course.
THE APPEAL.
WORKING QUARTERS OF THE AMERICAN CARDINAL
Ay was ordained a priest anniversary of which event the double jubilee now in churchman was in Baltimore church services have identified all through his weaver, after serving as state Archbishop Spalding top of North Carolina and four years. Then followed in similar responsibilities. In May, 1877, he was ap- the right of succession and divines of every creed as a masterpiece of logic and literary expression. The cardinal's correspondence is, of course, very heavy, sometimes amounting to hundreds of letters a day and his visitors are likewise numerous. The ecclesiastical business for which he is a court of last resort is in itself sufficient to throng with callers the modest reception rooms of the cardinal's residence adjoining the cathedral in Baltimore, but there are also great numbers of secular callers with a variety of missions. Catholic callers when received by the cardinal bend the knee and kiss the large amethyst ring which the cardinal wears in recognition of the spiritual authority vested in him.
Unless he is to attend a formal dinner of some kind in the evening the cardinal usually has the principal meal of the day shortly after noon and then lies down for a brief sika, particularly if he has had an unusually strenuous morning. Later in the afternoon there is another attack upon the accumulated correspondence and literary work and more than likely a number of visitors will call by appointment. Whatever be the demands upon his time, however, the cardinal endeavors to work with the cardinal—more in the late afternoon for his constitutional—with a sika milk fish. A Reed custom, followed by nearly all ecclesiastics, being taken in company with some friend or priest. When opportunity offers the cardinal also indulges in a short walk in the early morning but frequently he has to go forego this. Except under unusual circumstances the cardinal retires at or before 10 o'clock and in the early-to-bed rule is found one of the secrets of his endurance, for the eminent churchman though he has never been able to boast what might be termed a robust constitution is wiry and capable of an immense amount of work. The cardinal's duties necessitate considerable travel and he stands this fatiguing work remarkably well considering his age. The month of June preceding the events of his double jubilee is likely to be an especially lovely one for this energetic member of the college of cardinals for this year as usual he has been deliged with invitations to speak at commencements. Cardinal Gibbons has few hobbies. He is fond of reading and enjoys the possession of a splendid library embracing many rare volumes and he is likewise fond of music. Naturally a light eater at all times the cardinal is not tempted by delicacies that defy digestion.
REASONABLE LOGIC.
"Day, mamma, where do the cows get their milk?" asked little Jesse very seriously looking up from the foaming pan of milk she had been intently regarding.
"Well, dearie, where do you get your tears?" was the mother's questioning answer. After Jesie had spent several moments of very thoughtful silence, she again broke out:

Patents Worth Millions Dedicated to the People.
Hog Cholera, Anti-Toxin and Disappearing Gun Among Them—Now Miracle in Cement is Assigned to Public Good.
Washington—If you had discovered and patented a cholera anti-toxin that could stop an annual loss of $30,000,000 worth of hogs in the United States, would you give the invention away to the general public? Or, if you had found that oil and cement will mix to form a new style of concrete which may completely revolutionize the building industry, would you patent the process for your own pocketbook or for the free use of the people?
These questions are hypothetical to the ordinary citizen, but they have been real to two men. He who discoveres the hog cholera serum might have been rich now, and with a stupendous fortune in him. He who is about to obtain a patent on a new building material modestly admits that there probably would be "millions in it" and a patent right, but that he has no desire to take profit from his discovery.
Both of these inventors, Dr. Marion Dorset and Logan Waller Page, are employees under the agricultural department of the government. They are by no means the only ones, however, who have within the last three or four years dedicated to the public inventions of great value. A certain obligation rests upon the man who uses public property, and whose time is paid for by the government, to turn over his inventions to the government; but many private citizens have deeded to the public inventions from which they might have made large incomes.

Gen. William Crozier gave his discussion gun patent to the government.
Maj. O. M. Lissack gave all rights to a cartridge machine.
Harold H. Clark contributed to the public right to use his electric device for detecting gases in mines.
George W. Moore, instructor in Washington university, St. Louis, gave free his recipe on how to make poor soil replenish itself.
Austin W. Morrill of Orlando, Fla., gave a patent fumigating tent which weaves a cotton cultivator to eradicate the boll weevil was contributed by Warren E. Hinds of Auburn, Ala.
There are many more of these patients. All of them are open to manufacture by any private convern.
The inventors have given away their rights to royalties, and the manufacturers of the country are free to make whatever profits they can from the inventions.
The public is assured, however, that the inventors are copolyamide of any of the inventions, as they have made the telephone, electric light, photograph and hundreds of other important patents. There will always be competition enough to keep prices down.
Philadelphia — For the third time in as many months Clarence Edwards, seventeen years old, was a patient at Cooper hospital the other day with laughing hysteria.
Attending a moving picture show, Edwards was so tickled at an amusing scene thrown on the screen that when he began laughing he was unable to stop.
Even after leaving the showhouse his guffaws continued and when he grew hysterical an ambulance was summoned. In his hysteria Edwards fought the ambulance crew, and he became the president of the hospital it was necessary to strap him to a cot. An hour elapsed before he became quiet.
Harem Skirt, but No Riot.
Hastleton, Pa. — Hastleton the other day had its first look at a hawk skirt, but the appearance of an unknow young lady in the latest costume did not cause a riot.
The girl walked up and down the principal street of the city. The skirt was not a sensational type. It was a combination of the hobble and haram, with the hobble sewed up to the knees.
PRESSED WOOD IS NEW FUEL
Rapidly Becoming Popular in Southern California and Commands Good Prices.
Los Angeles.—In California, "pressed wood" is a new fuel that is rapidly becoming popular. Fuel for domestic purposes has always commanded exhbitant prices in southern California, bituminous coal selling at retail from $12 to $14 per ton, and wood cut for ware lengths at about the same figure per ton. In the high price of fuel, some inventors have the opportunity to win wealth from waste by utilizing a part of the enormous quantity of shavings and saw.
Pressed Wood for Fuel.
dust that is annually wasted, or at best used to poor advantage, in sawmills, planing mills and similar establishments. So he patented a machine for pressing shavings and sawdust into molds. A string through the center of the mold helps hold the material together, and the heavy pressure to which it is subjected accomplishes the rest. From the molds the "pressed wood" (as the product is called) comes out looking like a giant cannon cracker, 12 inches long and three inches in diameter. Owing to its compressed state, the wood burns slowly, but with intense heat; making it disaffectible for use in stoves than ordnance. It is claimed that its fuel value per ton is fully equal to that of the best grade of bituminous coal, while its cleanliness makes it preferable to coal. By the it ton it retails at the same price as coal, and the favor with which it has been received by the public seems to presage a great future for "pressed wood" as fuel.
IS BUILT FROM DRIFTWOOD
Novel House the Like of Which Does Not Exist in the Country.
Portland, Ore.—This novel house, the like f which does not exist in the country, was begun as a cabin in 1887. From a single room with low ceiling it has grown until it is now a good sized house of many rooms. The driftwood was gathered and worked into building, material by unskilled hands, and later the furniture was made and the fences built of the same.

waste material. In the construction no nails were used, the joints being made by mortice, dove-tail and wooden peg. The furniture is constructed on the mission style, all the fastenings being of pieces of driftwood. With the exception of the windows and doors and the bedsprings, the house and its furnishings are composed of wood that have come from many sections of the country and perhaps many countries of the world. The building is landscapes of few feet of high tide mark on the Pacific ocean, a few miles north of the Columbia river.
Confederate Engine Saved.
Atlanta, Ga.—The historic railway engine Texas, which did valiant service for the confederacy during the Civil war, will be preserved in a specially constructed building at Grant Park, in this city, according to resolutions adopted yesterday by the city council. The engine has been going to ruin on a spur track in this city.

CRACK RIFLE SHOT
Ohio Man Without Hands Wins Many Matches.
Carries Gun With Leathern Thong, Loads Magazine With His Mouth and Then Pulls Trigger With His Teeth.
Wapakoneta, O.—Possessing only the stump of an arm on the left side, and no arm at all on the right side, and using his teeth to pull the trigger, Al Wienmiller is conceded to be one of the most amazing rite shots in Ohio. If not in the United States, a statement that will be attested by all who have entered into competition with him, either in shooting at clay pigeons, live birds or a bull-syeve get. So far as is known there is no living man handcapped as he is who has made a record, and not for the purpose of revenue or exhibition, but purely for the love of a sport that he has followed from boyhood. His left hand was caught in the cogs of a traction engine and crushed into pulp in 1893, and an amputation above the wrist became necessary. Up to that time he had been an enthusiastic hunter, and aim continued even after his hand had been crushed and removed.
In January, 1910, Winemiller's right arm was caught in a four-inch belt running from a bolt cutter in the shop of the Wupke Wheel company. He was drawn up to the line shaft and whirled around until his arm was mashed and mangled close up to the shoulder socket. The surgeons took it off entirely. Winemiller made a marvelous recovery, and as soon as he was able to be about the began devising means to enable him to keep on shooting.
He bought a twenty-two repeating rifle and had a hole bored in the trigger. Through this he fastened a wire and covered the free end of it with a leather bit which he could take in his mouth. This device was made under his direction by a gunsmith, and then he went off into the woods where no

one would see him so that he could practice and carry out the plan he had in view.
The camiller is ready to go into action he selects a stump or a fallen log, wiggles out of his arm, shakes the box of cartridges out of a specially prepared pocket, removes the lid with his teeth and dumps the cartridges on the ground. Then—and always to the amazement of a veteran markman—he places his rifle at rest, with the muzzle pointing upward, holding it in position with a leathern throng strapped to the stump of his left arm, leans over and presses the spring of the magazine with his teeth, causing the receptacle to open. With his mouth he drops in the cartridges.
Those who see this exemplification of necessity being the mother of invention are somewhat perplexed to pull the trigger with his teeth and old deflecting or raising the muzzle of the rifle. He has made provision for by having the breech mechanism delicately adjusted that the trigger is what might be termed a superactive hair trigger. By contracting his lips he is able to draw the taut wrist just the merest fraction of an inch without the slightest movement of his head. The cartridge is exploded and the bullet is driven to its target.
Acids In "Touch" Bottle
London.—A new regulation has been made under the poisons and pharmacy act relating to the sale of sulphuric acid (vitriol), nitric acid, hydrochloric acid (spirits of salts), and soluble salic acid of oxalic acid. It states that the vessel in which the acid is sold must be distinguishable by touch from ordinary containers and must be distinctly labeled "Not to be taken." Any retailers of these acids who fail to comply with the regulation will be liable to a penalty.
To Get Thin.
Paris.—To grow thin do not fast, Eat five meals a day and take gentle exercise. This is the "new certain cure for obesity," which Prof. Albert Robin strongly recommends. A famous physician, he numbers among his patients crowned heads and many members of the highest aristocracy of Europe.
Rock as Scarcerow.
London.—A farmer named Lamb was healed at Neston, Cheshire, for tying a live rock to a stake in order to scare birds. The rock had a broken wing.

HAS THE RIGHT IDEA.
F. O. Stratton an Afro-American resident of Hillside, N. Y., is the only KNOWN man of the race living in the village. He is a member of the board of health, secretary of the village improvement society, registrar of vital statistics and village trustee. As there are no other Afro-Americans in Hillside it is evident that Stratton was elected to his many places of responsibility by his white fellow citizens. Mr. Stratton lives in a bungalow called Sunset, with wide verandas and pretty rooms and the parlor is full of books and art objects.
Mr. Stratton is headleaved on one important subject—he is opposed to colonization of his race.
"It is not wise for the Afro-American to colonize, especially in the North," he says. "The young men should be urged to take their families away from the cities and into the country. Each should go quietly into some small community, if possible where there are no other Afro-Americans or only a few at least, and then, by living a clean, thrifty life and acquiring property, working hard at some occupation that he is fitted to

The greenback incident of 1893, when the Treasury practically was drained of gold by what President Cleveland termed an endless chain, never can be repeated after a plan which Secretary MacVeagh has set in motion is completed.
The plan is to break up all the outstanding greenbacks of large amounts into smaller ones as fast as they come into the Treasury for redemption. Students of finance say the result will be that enough greenbacks to embarrass the Treasury can never be assembled at any one time.
Under Secretary MacVeagh's plan it is said to be certain that the trade of the country will absorb these large notes and they can never embarrass the Treasury again.

"The Afro-American is always bettered by living among white people, and neither he nor the white man is bettered by the establishment of Negro colonies. The best interests of the Afro-American are advanced by the constant example of the white people's thrift and manner of living, and not by the example of other Negroes in large colonies.
"It is not a special mark of distinction that my neighbors, all white, have made me an officer of their village. But I would be less than human if I did not appreciate their kindness. I am glad, however, if the establishing of my little home shows in any way what a colored man may do.
"I came to the country to live because I wanted to remove my children from the unfavorable conditions of crowded tenement life and the vicious idlers of my race.
"I came here with the idea of not being a discord in the social and political life of the new community, intending to be a good neighbor, doing all that a good citizen should to advance the best interests of the community, supporting always the best man for office, regardless of politics. That they have elected me to office is perhaps due to the fact that others have been too busy to do the work. That I accepted was because I desired to be of service to my neighbors and repay them for the courtesy they have shown me. The improvement association is composed of practically the whole body of taxpayers."
The short sighted Afro-American, who insist upon segregating themselves could do a great deal by getting a little information about the success of Mr. Stratton. THE APPEAL has always contended that the best way to settle the so-called race problem is for one or two Afro-American families to settle in white communities. The benefits of a Negro colony

CAUCAISIAN CHURCH RULES.
For many years the Caucasian press has been filled with a lot of stuff about "mercenary black voters," purchasable Negroes," etc., and although the Afro-American has been disfranchised the millennium is not yet at hand.
In the more or less "grand old commonwealth" of Virginia where the Afro-American is not allowed to vote to any great extent, it seems that the white voters have been selling their votes to such an extent that some of the churches have made an addition to their rules that no member will be admitted to fellowship who sells his vote, or buys a vote, or fails to pay his debts.
Many of the white people of Virginia are so low and degraded that such upright citizens as John Mitchell Jr., of Richmond and E. C. Browne of Newport News are as ashamed of them.
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."
"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.
One Rev. Gray, who has recently returned from Panama, speaks of the "wonderful work of Christianizing the Panamans, Chinese and Negroes." If the work being done there is Christian, the writer prefers to be a heathen. THE APEAL has in its possession a little pamphlet which states in plain English that only "white" people are admitted to the Y. M. C. A. Many semi-public organizations in the United States draw the line on the brother in black, but the writer has never seen a booklet stating the fact in plain words.
Dr. W. Ward Platt, of Philadelphia, is very anxious to convert the Aslatic people living on the Pacific coast to Christianity. Judging by newspaper reports, it would seem that the Caucasians themselves need to be converted to true Christianity. The Aslatic are behaving themselves, making money, educating their children and conducting themselves with more propriety than the white heathen, who endeavor to oppress them.
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.
In his address to the Oberlin Association of Illinois, at Chicago recently, President Henry Churchill King, of Oberlin College, said that the college graduate of to-day must rise above mere race prejudice and be prepared for far-sighted, unselfish and reverent leadership—Amen!
A writer in a Baltimore paper says "The world is growing better and most people have kind hearts." Judging by the bitter prejudices against Afro-Americans, Baltimore Caucasians should be numbered among the meanest people on earth.
WORLD'S CONGRESS OF RACES.
Fifty Countries to be Represented at Gathering in London
The first Universal Racos Congress, which promises to be one of the most influential gatherings yet held in London, will take place from July 26 to 29, under the presidency of Lord Weardale, at the Imperial Institute. Among those supporting the congress are representatives of 50 countries, over 25 presidents of parliaments, the majority of members of the Permanent Court of Arbitration, and of the delegates to the second Hague Conference, twelve British governors and eight British premiers, over 40 colonial bishops, 130 professors of international law, the leading anthropologists and sociologists, the officers and the majority of the council of the Interparliamentary Union, and other distinguished persons.
The object of the congress is "to discuss in the light of modern knowledge and modern conscience the general relations subsisting between the peoples of the West and those of the East, between the so-called white and the so-called colored peoples, with a view to encouraging between them a fuller understanding, the most friendliness, and a heartier co-operation." The congress will be truly an assemblage of all the races of the world, and it is noteworthy that each race is represented by a paper from a distinguished member of the people concerned. The honorary general secretary is Gustav Spiller, 63 South Hull Park northwest.

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 absurdly 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 elabor 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 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 lurped 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 innocent people, but they had associated only with white people. Now 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 maintaining marital relations with her. He appealed to the court to have his marriage annulled, and the court could have sent adrift, as she was sent adrift with the treasest of family. In this case two legal maxims had flung, 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 multitudes 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 propentent negro blood is to be held as washed out Set. Set one-eighth or one-sixteenth, one-third or one-sixth, 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 home, changed their race and colony, and so on, such cases, and not all Creoles. Thus, the process goes on, the conundrum will cease to concern them. When is a Caucasian not a Caucasian?

Since the advent of THE APPEAL
there have. been 4 number of publica:

doing business at the old stand,
Now, Mr. Wditor. as the paver has
been ti existence siice June, 1886.
and you became associated with it in
1886, this year is the twenty-ftth
year of your connection with it as
editor and manager, and I believe
that this fact should entitle you to
some special consideration 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
never been equaled in Minnesota—
nor elsewhere, for that matter.
Since it was your able manage-
ment. that maintamed the paper,
some honor and credit is due you;
and, I'am one who delights "to do
honor unto those to whom honor is
due.” “And I believe the people of
St. Paul, and throughout the state,
will be ‘glad to join in celebrating
your twenty-fifth anniversary as edit:
or ot THE APPEAL.
Your able management of the
Quarter-Centennial Celebration of
‘THE APPEAL last year, was seen and
recognized by every one who was

take charge of the matier as you did
‘then, Tam confident that the public

J. Q. Adams, "Esa.
St. Paul Minn.,
Mr. Baitor:
Since the Quarto-Centennial Cele-
bration of last September, commem-
orating the twenty-fifth anniversary
of the birth of THE APPEAL, was such
an unprecedented success, from every
point of view; and, is remembered,
with pleasure, by every one who had
the good fortune to be present on
that, mever-to-be-forgotten, — oceas-
sion, it has occurred to me that an-
‘other such an affair would be hailed
‘with delight by all who were pres-
ont, ae well. as. by thone’ who, for
Somie reason or another, were de-
prived of that blessed privilege; and
‘who would not miss the opportunity
if it was again offered to them.
I also recall the tact that the
twenty-fifth anniversary of your as-
sociation with THE APPEAL occurs
this year; and I feel that this is an
event a8 worthy of being celebrated
as the birth of the paper; if not
more so. For, it undoubtediy is ow-
ing entirely to your managerial abil-
ity 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 doos
seem to me that it will be very
fitting and proper for the people of
the Twin Cities to show a just recog-
nition of the herewlean’ task you
have aecomplished in maintaining an
organ in thelr interest for a quarter
of a century, by tendering you a
testimonial on the twenty-fifth an-
niversary of your connection with
the paper, or, on such other date that
in your judgment is more conveni-
ent or sultable, I would therefore
‘suggest, if {t meets Your approval—
as. know it will, the patrons of THE
APPEAL and your friends generally
—that you proceed to carry out that
idea along the lines employed in
the Quarto-Centennial Celebration of
‘THE APPHAL last year.
T have no especial suggestions to
make, as tne stecess of last year's
affair, as well as many other social
functions that have been under Jour
control testify to your exceptionable
ability to manage them “to a queen's
taste,” therefore, 1 feel sure you

SURPRISES IN OIL INDUSTRY
Since Time of Drake's Discovery Every New Field Has Added Something New.
Since the oil industry began it has been a succession of surprises. Drake's discovery well was a surprise to most persons. Since that time every new field has added something new. For several years every individual well was a revelation. Peculiarities were observed not found in their predecessors. Then the new things were found in localities. It is the same way yet. Oil refuses to abide by the rules and "freak" wells persist. The driller of long experience is constantly expecting something different from anything he has ever encountered. It is this novelty that makes the oil business so fascinating, but the same thing increases the hazard.
The latest reported oddity is the discovery of heavy oil in the Caddo deep sand. The opening of a high grade oil field in that locality was a surprise to all and to many a disagreeable one. But when that grade of crude had come to be the expected thing from the deep sand there, a well is drilled in alongside the field that produces oil of 30 degrees gravity from the same sand that yields the oil of high gravity. A few days earlier a well found the light oil in a shallow sand and then caved in and was spoiled. So it will probably go to the end of the chapter. Science can guess at the probabilities below the surface, but until a means is devised to see into the earth for several thousand feet, as the X-ray enables us to see through a sheet of steel, the oil business will be uncertain and full of surprises. It is hazardous in all its branches and will continue to be.—Oll City Derrick.
Sterilization by Light.
Milk is now being sterilized in Paris by submitting it to the action of ultra-violet rays, thus avoiding the use of heat or treatment by chemical antiseptic substances. It has long been known that light without heat can destroy micro-organisms, and in 1893 it was proved that from the ultra-violet part of the spectrum there proceeded rays that had a bacterial effect. It was further shown that glass stopped these rays, which, however, passed easily through quartz. It has taken over seven years to turn this knowledge to general use, but now in Paris an apparatus has been made by which ultra-violet rays, through quartz, sterilize 123 gallons of water an hour. After much trouble the sterilizing of milk has been successfully accomplished, although its consequence was at first a difficulty.
