The Appeal

JOKE STARTS LEGISLATIVE WHEELS BY EDWARD B. CLARK THE APPEAL KEEPS IN FRONT BECAUSE: 1-It alms to publish all the news possible. 2-It does so impartially, wasting no words. 3-Its respondents are able and energetic. VOL. 27. NO. 23. JOKE STA LEGISLA WHEELS BY EDWARD B. CLAI # WHIMSICAL bit of humor for which a Washington correspondent once was responsible had the result of setting some of the senators talking and had the further result of securing legislative action in the interest of humanity. It was Senator Beveridge of Indiana who took the initiative in the matter of the passing of a bill which brought a Rockyboy and his band of Shoshone Indians. Rockyboy and his reds needed the nation's help badly, and between the humorously inclined newspaper correspondent, the Hoosier senator and half a dozen of his colleagues it came to them at a time when years of disappointment had rendered them pretty nearly hopeless. If Rockyboy hadn't been so poverty stricken he doubtless would have sent the leggings, the beaded moccasin, the antelope shirt and the eagle feather war bonnet of chiefshiptown to newspaper man and senator as a mark of thankfulness for services rendered. Rockyboy and his following of warriors and women and children had been wandering through Montana for years and never had been able to a home. For some reason which history declare not, Rockyboy and his people were spurned alike by reds and whites. When the hunting and fishing were poor Rockyboy's bands came to the edge of starvation. Bill after bill had been introduced into congress to give relief to these roving reds, but no bill ever came within sight of the passing stage. Finally the name, Rockyboy, struck a newspaper man's fancy. Possibly he had had the feeling himself. In an idle act, he drew up a mock legislative measure and in it Senator Beveridge figured Chief Rockyboy, while a dozen or so other senators under various names as members of Rockyboy's band of warriors. The names either fitted admirably or misstated just as admirably. his band of Shoshone Indians.

For some reason which history declare not, Rockyboy and his people were spurned alike by whites. When the hunting and fishing were poor Rockyboy's bands came to the edge of starvation. Bill after bill had been introduced into congress to give relief to these roving reds, but no bill ever came within sight of the passing stage. Finally the name, Rockyboy, struck a newspaper man's fancy. Possibly he had had the feeling himself. In an idle moment he drew up a mock legislative measure and in it Senator Beveridge figured as Chief Rockyboy, who had been among senators appeared under various names as members of Rockyboy's band of warriors. The names either fitted admirably or misstated just as admirably. Senator Allison of Iowa, who in no conceivable X SEN. NELSON ALDRICH would commit himself by word of mouth, appeared as Chief Talkee-Tow-Mun, Senator Aldrich of Rhode Island, who, for reasons which may be perfectly apparent to everybody that knows anything about him, was called in the newspaper man's Rockyboy relief measure Chief Smooth-Medicine. A copy of the skit fell under Senator Beveridge's eye. It amused him immensely. He hung it on the wall of his room and showed it to callers. Finally one day it occurred to him that Rockyboy and his band had done him a service of amusement and he concluded that turn about only Rockyboy, play, and so he thought he would look into a fair play, and how it was that for years congress had refused to aid the aid of some of its wards who were at the point of starvation at six months of the year. The senator apparently thought that it wouldn't hurt the members of the Rockyboy band to have a few square meals, even though they were not the most deserving reds in the land. The senator did look into the case, and found that Rockyboy and his wandering Montana band were worthy of consideration. He made Rockyboy's cause his own from that hour, and it was not long before a bill "For the relief of the wandering American-born Indians of Rockyboy's band in Montana," was passed by the senate of the United States. The senator took to Robert Baker of Brooklyn represented the Sixth New York district in congress. Mr. Baker's career was somewhat stormy. He was on a Socialist, but he was elected on the Democratic ticket. Mr. Baker's fellow members said of him that he was "erratic, effervescent, somewhat noisy, but always sincere." There were scores of men who sat in the lower house of congress during Mr. Baker's term who hoped, perhaps for sheer curiosity's sake, that he would be sent to congress again in order that he might finish a speech which he once begat but was not allowed to bring to an end. He was given the ending of the Brooklyn member's address fall season. The Baker had spoken on the single tax system and on the inquiries of all other kinds of taxation. He had been given 20 minutes to unburden himself on a bill "To amend the law relating to taxation* in the District of Columbia." When the 20 minutes were up the chairman's gavel hit the desk with a thump that shivered one of Baker's best sentences. The Brooklynite begged for ten minutes more, but the member who was in charge of the debate was the Democratic minority cruelly cut him off, but being allowed him one minute in which to continue, the maker beaked look as if he felt insulted, but for the good of his cause he grasped the feeting moment and did what he could with it. circumstances would commit himself by word of mouth, appeared as Chief Talks-Too-Much.

A copy of the skit fell under Senator Beveridge's eye. It amused him immensely. He hung it on a desk of his room and showed it to callers. Finally one day it occurred to him that Rockyboy and his band were in the field of amusement and he concluded that turn about was only fair play, and so he thought he would look into Rockyboy's case and find out how it was that for years congress had refused to go to the aid of some of its wards who were at the point of starvation at least six months of the year. The senator apparently thought that it wouldn't hurt the members of the Rockyboy band to have a few square meals, even though they were not the most deserving reds in the land. The senator did look into the case, and found that Rockyboy and his wandering Montana band were worthy of consideration. He made Rockyboy's courtroom appearance and it was not long before a bill "For the relief of the warmer American-born Indians of Rockyboy's band in Montana," was passed by the senate of the United States. A few years ago Robert Baker of Brooklyn represented the Sixth New York district in congress. Mr. Baker's career was somewhat stormy. He was known as a Socialist, but he was elected on the Democratic ticket. Mr. Baker's fellow members said of him that he was "erratic, effervescent, somewhat what, but always sincere." There were scores of men who sat in the lower floor of the courtroom, who hoped, perhaps for sheer curiosity's sake, that he would be sent to congress again in order that he might finish a speech which he once began but was not allowed to bring to an end. The blocking of the ending of the Brooklyn member's address fell in this wise: Mr. Baker had spoken on the single tax system and on the uniquities of all other kinds of taxation. He had been unanimous to unburden himself on a bill "To amend the law to reduce the District of Columbia." When the 20 minutes were up the chairman's gavel hit the desk with a thump that shivered one of Baker's best sentences. The Brooklynite begged for ten minutes more, but the member who was in charge of the debate on behalf of the Democratic minority crumpled, and his relenting, allowed him one minute in which to make the made Baker look as if he felt insulted, but for the good of his cause he grasped the feeting moment and did what he could with it. He told Mr. Babcock, chairman of the District THE APPEAL. STARTS LATIVE LS CLARK SEN. ALDERT J. BEVERIDGE The Brooklyn man received a pass from a railroad company. He sent it back by the next mail and the letter he sent with it was of the of Columbia committee, that when he proposed to tax a man for the privilege of doing business he made a criminal of every man who thought he had a right to work at his trade without being taxed for the work and who for conscience sake kept at his work and refused to pay the government levy. This view that Baker had the inherent right of a man to work at peddling or anything else without paying for the privilege he new. It had been advanced occasionally in congress, and frequently elsewhere, by men of a certain bent of mind. Mr. Baker, however, took the last 30 seconds of the minute allotted to him to spring something novel and it was for the finishing of that half-minute speech that certain of the congressmen whose curiosity was piqued are anxious. The Brooklyn member told his fellow members Brooklyn and without any explanatory reasons that they were guilty of causing the deaths of 450 out of every 1,000 babies that were born. Naturally, after he arranged for whole murder in this way, the members were anxious to know along what line the truth lay. Baker, however, paused after he had accused his fellows of being modern Herods in the matter of the slaughter of the innocents, and before he had a chance to show a willingness to let the members know whether they were sending infants to the grave by fire, steel or the rope, his time was up and he was shut off by the chairman of the committee of the whole, and as a result a great murder mystery still hangs over the house of representatives. When the Grand Duke Sergius was killed Mr. Baker made a speech in the house which indirectly influenced the throwing of the bomb the explosion of which death to the duke. There is a good deal of interest in the south. The southern members didn't like Mr. Baker's remarks on the assassination of Sergius. Representative John W. Maddox of Georgia when given a chance to think even momentarily, is something of a purist in the matter of language. He became so angry at Baker's remarks, however, that he forgot there was such a thing as grammar on the face of the earth. Before Mr. Baker was half-way down into his seat, Maddox was on his feet shouting in trumpet tones: "The Democratic party don't stand for this assassination." He would probably if enigmatic utterance which brought forth raptorous applause alike from Democrats and Republicans. To Robert Baker is due a large part of the credit for the legislation which prevents members of congress from accepting passes from railroad companies. Baker was known in congress as Anti-pass Baker, and while the name was given him as a joke he carried it proudly and questionably he made campaign material out of it. He attacked the pass accepting propensities of his fellows, constantly asking the pointed question how they could be consistent advocates of the people's rights as against the railroads while hiding out their hands to the railroads for favors. didn't stir the conscience of congress in the matter of taking railroad passes he did stir the feelings of the public. The pass matter as a result of Representative Baker's agitation was discussed in the public press more than it ever had been discussed before, and the way it was paved for the anti-pass provision in the railroad rate bill. Robert Baker was not re-elected. He was given a position, however, which paid him $4,500 a year. He deliberately resigned from this well-paying position because he believed that while holding it he could not consistently preach certain of his beliefs concerning the methods of government. Henry M. Goldogle, representative in congress from New York city, in a speech in the house gave those of his colleagues whose knowledge of history does not extend to details an interesting chapter concerning a Jewish patriot the revolutionary period who gave up his money to help the poor destitute of financial straits. Mr. Goldogle, the general one of a past generation, is a Jew, and he took proper pride in the deed of the man of his faith. In some respects this story of the giving of money to the government by Hyman Salomon, the Jewish citizen, is one of the most remarkable which ever has been called to the attention of congress. The country does not know much about it. It ought to know all about it and it ought to appreciate not only the generosity of the patriot but the action of the patriot's descendants who gave congress one of the biggest surprises it has ever received. Hyman Salomon, like Robert Morris, helped the government out liberally when it was in financial straits and when there seemed little likelihood of his money would be returned. Robert Morris, a place in every school history, and the boy who was about the friend of liberty who impoverished himself for the government stands below the foot of his history class. Neither the school books nor the encyclopedias seem to have given much attention to Hyman Salomon, who parted with his shekels for the benefit of Uncle Sam. In his speech in congress Mr. Goldfogle did something for the memory of the financier and even more for the fame of the financier's descendants. The house learned that in the years that had gone four different congresses expressed a willingness to pay to the heirs of Mr. Salomon the money which he advanced to the government without securing. The part of the New York representative's statement fairly astounded his colleagues was his declaration that every time that congress had expressed its desire to give Hyman Salomon's heirs the money their叔叔 had advanced they refused to take one cent out of their cash, saying that if their forerunner's loan was inspired by patriotism they desired to show that his descendants held his patriotism as a heritage. It is said that the records of congress show practically no cases which may run as parallel to this refusal to take money to the ownership of which there was every legal and moral right. GABBAGES ON TREES Horticultural Freak of More Than Usual Oddity. Abnormally Developed Cabbage Plant That Has Borne Over a Bushel of Small Heads and is Still Growing. Santa Monica, Cal.—Apparently the time has passed when country folk were justified in sneering at the ignorance of their city relatives for asking to be shown the cabbage tree, or to be permitted to buy bunk the pumpkins. It is true that not well authenticated case has yet come to notice of pumpkins that needed husking; but the cabbage tree is no longer a myth born of ignorance, and persons who have stood beneath its branches are agreed that anything is likely to happen. So far as known, the original and only "cabbage tree" is growing in the garden of John A. Pool, 1302 Eleventh street, this city. It is nearly two years old, and is about nine feet and a half high, with a "trunk" 11 inches in diameter at a height of a foot and a half above the ground. It has borne more than a bushel of small cabbage heads, and many more are yet developing, so that its days of usefulness are not yet over. Near the top, it Mr. Pool feels like a fashion; but Mr. Pool feels that if cabbage heads were permitted to develop on those slender limbs they would certainly break down the tree. So he cuts out the heads that begin to form near the top, but permits those that, develop along the trunk to grow to a size adapting them to table use. Nearly two years ago Mr. Pool bought a number of cabbage plants. Pool and His Cabbage Tree. from a country woman, and planted them in two rows running the length of his garden. All of the plants but this one developed normally; but this particular plant early displayed a tendency to shoot up in the air, instead of producing a round and symmetrical head. After growing several feet high, began to produce numerous small heads but with no abatement of its ambition to go on higher in the world. As it grew higher and higher, it began to get top-heavy, and a stout stake was driven in the ground, to which the plant is tied to prevent it from being blown down. Inasmuch as the cabbage tree has forsaken the annual habit proper to normal and well behaved cabbage plants, and has shown by two years of growth, summer and winter, that it does not appear to be any good reason why it may not continue to grow indefinitely; and "Pool's Cabbage Tree," at Montaica, may in time become famous as one of California's tourist attractions. At least it is a horticultural freak of more than usual oddity. TO MARK SITE OF OLD FORT Marble Statue Is to Bear Name of Iowa's First White Woman Settler. Estherville, Iowa.—A marble statue will be erected in the near future to mark the site of old Fort Defiance, which stood where the city of Estherville is now located. The local lodge of the Daughters of the American Revolution has the work of arranging for the shaft in charge. The monument will be 30 feet high and will be built entirely of marble. A large marble cannon, the top of which will be mounted with a carved American cagle, will grace the top of the shaft. On a name plate at the bottom of the shaft will be engraved the name of Mrs. Esther Ridley, Mrs. Ridley was the first white woman to settle in Iowa, and the town of Estherville was named after her.

YOUTH LIVES IN THE PAST Wisconsin Boy Reared by a Talented Recluse is a Most Accomplished Latinist. Hayton, Wis.-Gustave Bauman of this place is so complete a Latinist that, could he be transported to ancient Rome, its language would be entirely familiar to him. Aside from his unique knowledge of Latin he is altogether untaught, can speak English school a day, a day, not at all and German only in the colloquial form common here. He is 18 years old. When he was three years old he was adopted by Henry Bauman, a tal- Gustave Bauman. ented recluse who has lived here in a hovel that was once a stable, for many years. Disgusted, he said, with everything pertaining to modern life, Bauman determined to rear his foster son in the atmosphere of a by-gone age. The classic tongue of Rome was the only language taught to the boy by his eccentric parent, who was well able to follow his part, be having been a noted Latin scholar in Europe. When the lad was ten years old he possessed a knowledge of Latin that the school taught youth of twice his age could not hope ever to equal. Now, he speaks the ancient tongue so well and reads and writes it with such fluency that he may well be said to have revived a dead language. The elder Bauman's desire to bring up the boy in an atmosphere of aloofness in his modern has been well carried out, but he is never ridden on a train, used a telephone in any way mingled in the life of the village, which, narrow as it is, represents to him the great outside world, full of evils and temptations. BIBLE THAT BROUGHT $50,000 Rare Book Which Henry E. Huntington Bought From the Robert Hoe Collection. New York.—This Gutenberg Bible, from the Robert Hoe collection, was sold in New York City at auction to Henry E. Huntington, nephew of the late Collis P. Huntington, for $50,000. The Gutenberg Bible was printed some time between 1450 and 1455. The value of the copies of the Gutenberg Bible lies not alone in their beauty, great as it is as an example of the bookmaker's art, nor in their rarity, for there are thirty-four copies known. The Gutenberg Bible. to be in existence. The Gutenberg Bible is the first book known to have been printed from movable types. The catalogue of the Hoe auction says of the copy recently sold: "Printed on vellum of the finest quality, it is in remarkably clean and fresh condition, the bold gothic characters standing out with undiminished grandeur. Whereas all copies vary slightly, the above is one of the few known to exist with headings at the commencement of the Epistle of St. Paul, and the first Book of Genesis printed in red, it being known on account of the difficulty encountered in printing in a second color this undertaking was discontinued. In the British museum copy, these spaces were left blank. The other chapter headings throughout are written in red in a contemporary gothic hand, thus preserving the symmetry of the page, while the beautiful illuminated initials and decorations, taken in conjunction with the antique and massive appearance of the binding, contribute to make the a truly magnificent exposition of the Bible. The two leaves, Fo, 289 and 640, which are in facsimile, constitute the only defects."

Structure Rises One-Seventh of a Mile From the Ground—Exceeded in Height Only by the Eiffel Tower. New York—Men will be at work daily in a structure of stone and steel one-seventh of a mile from the ground and in all of the 55 stories of the new Woolworth building before the end of next year, the time appointed for completion of the tallest business structure in the world. L陆 out fait the giant building would be longer than the blocks, and Salvator's record speed for the second seconds the time necessary for the champion to cover the distance. Only the Eiffel tower, in Paris, a steel skeleton, will exceed in height this newest New York pinnacle. Higher and higher do our skyscrapers soar, outtopping everything but the mephitic clouds of smoke from their own boilers; deeper and deeper until the massive steel roots find anchorage in the modern world. The true Titans of the modern world are the builders, heaving their tons of steel and stone and brick aft in defiance of the law of gravitation and the winds of heaven and daring even the earthquake to confound their work in ruin. Besides these modern giants of structural efficiency the builders of the early world were but pygmies playing in the nursery. How high will the skyscraper be the mount? Has the physical limitation been reached, or will the man-made Sieras of tomorrow lift their giant Woolworth Building. towers out of the lofty masses of the present like mountains springing from foothills? Cincinnati has its skyscrapers, but it has not yet surrendered to the passion for "topless towers" which grips all New York. The Singer building, with its tower lifting 612 feet above the pavement, had scarcely ceased to be the wonder of Gotham before the Metropolitan building down upon it, and now the Woolworth building be plied higher yet—nobody knows quite how high. What is to be the determining factor of the future in regard to height? BURN MANSION FOR A SHOW promoters Get Realistic Views of Fire, Rescue and Bucket Brigade Attempting to Quench Flames. New Rochelle, N. Y.—The historic Sticard mansion, built 250 years ago by a Huguenot family, and the scene of many festive meetings of aristocratic society in colonial days, is a mass of blackened ruins today. It was sacrificed to furnish a spectacle for a motion picture film. The site of the house was recently purchased for a new Episcopal church, and the old rooftop offered at auction, was bid in by a moving picture company. With the permission of a city authorities the company set fire to the house in order to obtain a series of realistic pictures of the rescue of a child, a village bucket brigade in action, and a mourning family viewing the ruins. 1,800 Foreign Girls Lost Indianapolis, Ind. "Eighteen hundred immigrant girls were lost track of after having been received at Ellis island, and put aboard trains for Chicago and other points in the west, in the last year and a half," Miss Grace Abbott of Hull House, Chicago, said in discussing in the biennial convention of the Young Women's Christian association of America, the problem of caring for immigrant girls. Miss Abbott advocated a federal immigration bureau in Chicago, "as a check on the work of the white slavers" immigrant girls deserted the quaint shawls and spouses of their native lands for the hobble, skirt all toe quickly, Miss Abbott said.

C., Monday night, Senator Bailey, of Texas, lauded "Jefferson Davis, soldier, statesman and Christian gentleman," and then said: "We have to solve the problem of the Negro who thinks he is good enough to come to the front door. The only way in which the two races will live in peace is for the Negro to realize and recognize his inferiority." The next night Senator Clapp, of Minnesota, threw down the guantiet to Senator Bailey in a speech delivered to an audience composed principally of Afro-Americans. He eulogized Lincoln—in contrast to Senator Bailey's praise of Jefferson Davis; he denounced slavery, "permanent bondage and servitude"—in contrast to the Southern's statement that "the truth of history lies on the Confederate side." Continuing, Senator Clapp said: "God never made any race for permanent bondage and servitude to others. There is absolutely nothing in the limitations of color to prevent the colored man from being of fully as much service to the community and the nation as the white man." M. H. Who Will Succeed Himself March 4, 1913. There Will Be No Doubt About His Nomination and He'll Be Elected. J. Register of the United States Treasury and a Member of the Board of Trustees of the Inter-Church College to be Established at Nashville, Tenn., for the Training of Christian Workers. Mr. and Mrs. Napier Will Make Large Donation to the Work. The Methodist Training School for Christian Workers has been in existence for several years at Nashville, Tenn., and has done good work among the whites. Now the Chancellor of Vanderbilt University, the Presidents of Ward Seminary, Belmont College and Boscobel College, together with a number of other influential Southern people have determined to establish an interchurch college for the education of Christian workers and the advancement of sociological studies among the Afro-Americanians. They have created a Board on the part of the Afro-American people consisting of Dr. Booker T. Washington, Dr. G. A. Gates, of Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., Dr. W. P. Thirkield of Howard University, Washington, D. C., Dr. R. H. Boyd, of Nashville, Dr. George C. Hall of Chicago and Dr. G. T. Walker of Augusta, Ga. This matter has been the subject of a number of conferences between Prof. J. McCulloch and Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Napier and they have partially agreed to donate several thousand dollars to the work. THE HUMAN INTELLECT HAS CEASED TO GROW. Neville Champerlain, and English psychologist, after some years of study concludes that the human intellect has ceased to grow. Mr. Champerlain means that the brain capacity of the highest type of Caucasian of today is no higher than that of the cultured Greeks of 2,500 years ago, for instance. Mr. Chamberlain calls attention to the fact that the Japanese, Chinese, Bebus of India and Bushmen of Australia were regarded as peoples of inferior intelligence a half century ago on account of their crude civilization and moral codes. Now students from those countries in European universities compete successfully with the descendants of a line of men who have been in touch with what we regard as high civilization. Mr. Chamberlain might have also called attention to the Afro-American students, whose parents were slaves less than fifty years ago. They have shown the same mental capacity as the Caucasians and in many instances have outstripped their white fellow students and carried off the honors in the great universities of the country. CASTE CHRISTIANITY IN AFRICA. The alleged Christians in South Africa, who have proved to be experts in drawing the color line politically, have introduced it into the church as the following will show: "One of the clauses of the Dutch Reformed Churches Bill provides that in the United Church colored members of the Cape Church today will not be entitled to membership of the United Church in a neighboring Province. On this vital clause, which at the outset Mr. Louw, who is in charge of the Bill, declared to be an absolute essential to the Union of the Churches in the various Provinces, issue was joined, and a most memorable and dramatic debate resulted. Broadly, the supporters of the clause, prominent among whom was the Prime Minister, defended it on the ground that it followed the principle laid down in the Act of Union. The clause was denounced with passionate earnestness in notably eloquent speeches by Mr. Merriman, Mr. Quinn, Mr. Theo. Schriener, and Sir George Farrar. The clause was defended in a rather notable speech by General Hertzog. The clause was carried on a division by 51 votes to 27. 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. Patrick Ford, of New York, has raised $5,000 for the Irish National fund. How much are Afro-Americans raising to secure their rights? An Afro-American has been lynched in Mississippi "by his own race for denouncing the cruelty of white slaveholders before the war." The Jewish citizens of New York City are anxious to form a Jewish regiment of the National Guard. ROOSEVELT TO SUPPORT TAFT Two Men Meet at Baltimore and Have Confidential Chat. GREAT POLITICAL QUESTION IS ANSWERED Budget of News From Washington. Taft Will Denounce Lynching. Lewis' Confirmation Recommended By Sub-Committee. Famous Author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," the One Hundredth Anniversary of Whose Birthday, June 14th, Will be Celebrated all Over World Washington, June 7. - While in Baltimore yesterday afternoon former President Theodore Roosevelt gave President Taft his unqualified indorsement for his nomination in 1912. This was the best news that the President had received in many months, and it had the result of cementing the friendship of the two leaders and making both of them jolly for the rest of the day. The meeting of the President and his predecessor, which took place in a darkened room back of the imposed stage at the Fifth Regiment Army will tell us the history of political annals of the country. For many months there has been some doubt about the former president supporting his successor, and the news that he will, will be hailed with delight by every Republican in the United States. The information that Colonel Roosevelt would under no circumstances allow his own name to be presented to the Republican national convention was conveyed to the White House some time ago, but it did not become known until last night that Colonel Roosevelt feels that the Taft administration should be continued. William T. Vernon, of Kansas, former Register of the United States Treasury, has been appointed Supervisor of Schools of "The Five Civilized Indian Tribes" by Secretary of the Interior Fisher. His headquarter will be at Muskogee, Oklahoma. All Oklahoma state officials are opposing the appointment of W. T. Vernon as assistant superintendent of schools of Five Civilized Tribes by Secretary of the Interior Fisher. The reason because Rosevelt is an Afro-American. It however is considered certain that he will get the place, as neither President Taft nor Secretary Fisher will pay any attention to the Oklahoma protest. HARRIET BEEG Famous Author of "Uncle Tom's Cabin Whose Birthday, June 14th Over the President Taft told a delegation consisting of Dr. W. A. Sinclair, of Philadelphia; Dr. M. Wheatland, of Newport, R. I.; Hon. A. H. Grimke of Boston; Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, Mrs. Carrie A. Clifford, Rev. J. Milton Waldron, Mr. Wm. H. Harris, Mr. L. M. Hershaw, Rev. R. K. Harris and Rev. George W. Foster, of Washington, representing the "National Association for the Advancement of Colored People," that he denounced lynching in his regular message to Congress. He said that the committee did right in calling his attention to the matter, and in this way bringing it to the attention of the country. Before he was elected President, Mr. Taft denounced the mob. In one of his speeches are found these words: A mob develops the most flendish cruelty, manifesting itself in the blinded and most unreasonable as saults upon perfectly innocent people simply because of their color. It is impossible to read accounts of this sort without having one's blood boil with indignation that there can reside in the human breast such a savage and beastly impulse. Hon. J. C. Napier, Register of the Treasury, entertained at lunch Monday, Mr. Fred. R. Moore, editor of the New York Age. The other guests were Hon. W. H. Lewis, Assistant Attorney General; Hon. R. W. Tylor, Auditor of Navy Department; Hon. Cyrus Field, Assistant Register of the Treasury; Hon. James A. Cobb, Assistant District Attorney. Dr. George C. Hall, the famous surgeon of Chicago, passed through Washington this week en route to Lincoln University, Pa. Justice John M. Harlan, senior associate justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, celebrated his seventy-eight birthday a few days ago. He was overwhelmed with messages and notes and letters of congratulation. "Retire?", said the Justice in reply to a question. "Why, I'm not an old man. I'm 78, but I don't feel more than half that number of years." The Supreme Court has made many decisions adverse to the Afro-American people, but Justice Harlan has invariably dissented. Washington will have a postal savings bank by July 1, according to Postmaster General Bitchock. Fifty new depositories have been created, to begin operations in July 9, when time the Postmaster General states at least 1,000 depositories will have been designated. ```markdown ``` Minnesota wants Taft, and Representative Nye, of Minneapolis, will urge the House committee on public buildings and grounds to make a favrable report on his resolution authorizing the government to accept buildings and grounds on Lake Minnetonka, Minn., for a summer residence for the President. The property is offered by the Minneapolis Commercial Club without cost to the federal government. That Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy, was superior to Abraham Lincoln in every respect, and that had the positions of Lincoln and Davis been reversed, Davis would "have crushed Lincoln in one week," was the assertion made Saturday night by Capt. P. M. de Leon, in a speech before the United Daughters of the Confederacy, at exercises in honor of Davis' birthday in Confederate Veterans' Hall, in this city. The commencement exercises of the Washington Conservatory of Music will take place at the New Howard Theatre, Friday evening, June 16. Mrs. Hattie Gibbs Marshall, president, has secured the Philadelphia Concert Orchestra to assist in the excellent musical program. Friends of the President are greatly pleased with the way in which his speech on Canadian reciprocity at Chicago has been received by the country. The frank explanation which Mr. Taft gave of his understanding of the forces which are at work to defeat the treaty, they believe, will have a decidedly beneficial effect. Hon. William Tecumseh Vernon, Ex-Register of the Treasury, has returned from Kansas City, Kan, where he has been for several weeks at the bedside of his father, who has been seriously ill, but is now recovering CHER STOWE. "In the One Hundredth Anniversary of rh. Will be Celebrated all World." Harriet Tubman, who ran away from slavery before the civil war and became the most noted "conductor on the underground railroad," leading over 3,000 slaves to freedom, has been taken sick and penniless to the Harriet Tubman Home. She gave her all to establish a home for aged Afro-Americans at Auburn, N. Y., of which she is now an inmate. She was the friend of Frederick Douglass, William Lloyd Harrison, Wendell Phillips, John Brown, William H. Seward and Abraham Lincoln. A beautiful and impressive service marked the Children's Day observance Sunday at All Souls' Church. A letter from President Taft was read by the superintendent of the Sunday school, Mr. Dawe. After reading the letter, Mr. Dawe presented each child with a carnation, the gift of the President. This kindly remembrance of them by the President caused much happiness among the children. The celebration of the one hundredth anniversary of the birth of Harriet Beecher Stowe will be celebrated at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, Wednesday evening, June 14 Mary. Mary Church Terrell will preside. The principal address will be delivered by Dr. Lyman Beecher Stowe, the grandson of Mrs. Stowe. Other distinguished speakers will make addresses. Mrs. Terrell is writing a volume, "An Appreciation of Harriet Beecher Stowe," which will appear soon. Amendments with real teeth in them are being prepared for the bill for the publicity of campaign expenditures, and if they are adopted by the Senate, as is predicted, the Republic an body will go the Democratic House one better in that legislation. President Taft is among those who indorse the project of erecting at Lincoln Memorial University, Cumberland Gap, Tenn., a building to be known as Howard Auditorium, as a memorial to the late Major Gen. Oliver Otis Howard, for many years president of the institution. Gen. Howard was the founder of Howard University, in this city. Hon. William H.

Some of the people to whom THE APPEAL is as regularly sent as it is issued, and that is every Saturday—act as though they are under neither legal nor moral obligations to pay for it; when, as a matter of fact, they are under both. There is no law compelling any one to receive THE APPEAL, but there is law to compel any one to pay for it who receives it, upon the principle of law that one must pay for anything he receives. Ordering a paper discontinued does not pay any amount that may be due and unpaid, and the publisher has the right to continue to send his paper until whatever may be due for it is fully paid; then an order to discontinue must be obeyed. It is hoped that every one who reads this, that is indebted to the paper, will bring or send to the office the amount due. Every one who receives THE APPEAL is expected to pay for it.

For the sixth and last week of their engagement at the Grand, commencing Sunday matinee, June 11th, Messrs. Lewis & Oliver announce two popular plays for presentation. On Sunday matinee and evening, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday matinee and evening, Mrs. Henry Wood's popular love story, "East Lynne," will be the bill. It is a popular old play, and its success year after year is the greatest tribute to its merit. The story illustrates a woman's love, faith, hope and trials, and has been pronounced one of the greatest emotional plays of modern times. Miss Ruth Gale will be seen as Lady Isabel and Otis L. Oliver as Sir Francis Levinson. For the last half of the week, commencing Thursday evening, Alexandre Dumas' emotional classic, "Camille," will be the bill. The story of "Camille" is one of intense interest from the first to the last, a story of the struggles of a woman of the world, a struggle between her better and her evil nature. She triumphs, after renouncing the world and all the pleasures of gay Paris for the love of a man, who loves her. She later renounces him because she is made to believe it is for his own good. Believing that love of gold, and not his love, is her motive for this action, she renounces her and learns the truth of time to forgive and be forgiven just before her death. Miss Ruth Diana Dewar will be seen in the title role and Mr. Otis L. Oliver will play Armand Duval. Two additional performances of "Camille" will be given on Sunday matinee and evening, June 18th. This will conclude the Lewis-Oliver engagement. The "Newport Restaurant" is the sign now on the windows of what was formerly the "Dublin Inn," 378 Minnesota street.
