Indeed, it is a question whether the Indian girls are not, in many respects, advancing more rapidly than their prototypes among the palefaces. However, it must not be inferred that the present-day trend of culture and education and progress among the Indian girls is a parallel as to alms and purposes with that which prevails among her fair-complexioned cousins. Quite the contrary, as a native insurance, it may be cited that, generally speaking, the Indian girls of the present give far less thought to fashion in dress than do feminine members of the white race. Similarly they are not exercised over suffrage and they do not place such stress on the development of musical accomplishments. contrary, as a matter of fact may be cited that, generally girls of the present give a fashions in dress than do for the white race. Similarly the over suffrage and they do not on the development of muscle.

At the same time, many of the red-skin belles are not content to ignore the social accomplishments which are supposed to enhance the attractiveness of modern young women. According to the Indian School at Carlisle, Pa., and other large institutions of this land, we find the daughters of the forest crowding the music, painting, drawing, dancing, modern athletics, etc., and even behold these descendants of the savages developing marked dramatic ability in amateur theatrical entertainments of various kinds. Every person is forced to admit of the wisdom and benefits of the "white man's education" for some Indians. The remarkable life stories of some of the self-made Indians who have, after acquiring the white man's book learning, adopted the white man's mode of life, amply attest the success of the transformation in individual cases. There is, however, and perhaps always will be of ophion as to the wisdom of attempting to learn the entire rising generation of America's native tribes. Oddly enough there seems to be more widespread belief in such a policy for the Indian girls than for the young men of the tapes. We say, oddly, because when new conditions have confronted an uncivilized or semi-civilized people it has usually been the men who have customized themselves to the new order of things more readily than the women. In the case of most Indian clans, however, the women have proven more amenable to the exactions of the new life wherein seems to lie the only salvation of the entire Indian life. Various reasons have been advanced in explanation of this, one of the most plausible being that it has not been as difficult for the Indian girl to grow in the Georgia such pleasures as it has been for the young brave to foresake the excitement of the chase and the care-free nomadic life and to settle down in a fixed habitation with the lrisks monotony of the white man's life. Also, it is impossible to overlook the influence exerted by the example of the considerable number of Indian women who have married white settlers in Oklahoma and other parts of the west. Even at the outset of her career in the conventional environment of the age the Indian girl has many advantages over her brother who completes his education at the same time. It not infrequently happens that a young man of Indian women has a life of man from some Indian school only to find no opportunity waiting him commensurate with his ability. Small wonder that in some instances the young men revert to the ideals and mode of life of their forefathers. The Indian girl, on the other hand, can be sure that when she finishes a school course that includes domestic economy there is a place T THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. JANUARY 27. 1912. AN INDIAN MOTHER AND HER BABY "MEMBERS OF THE RICHEST OF INDIAN GIRL LEARNING LAUNDRY WORK AT CARLISLE "MEMBERS OF THE RICHEST OF SAVAGE TRIAGES" awaiting her. She will never have any difficulty in obtaining a well-paid position in domestic service, for the instructors at our indian schools have the privilege of teaching responsible families eager to secure competent indian girls as household helpers. Some of the applicants even suggest the possibility of adopting a young indian girl if one be found to fulfill expectations. Or, if the girl of the present day, upon completing her education, elect to try for a livelihood in some one of the artistic pursuits she seems to have advantages over her brother fully qualified as under the circumstances above mentioned. The Indian brave, in his native state, does not show aptitude for any form of artistic handicraft unless it be the fashioning of bows and arrows. But the Indian women have traditional skill in bead work, in feather work and in leather work and the indian women of the south-west have for countless generations excelled in pottery manufacture, in rug weaving and in basket making. The indian girl is enabled to use such talents in accordance with the knowledge of modern art ideals which a school education gives her, it goes without saying that she has ready to hand a very agreeable and very recuperative means of livelihood. School teaching is another vocation which opens to the educated Indian girls a future that is virtually closed to the redskins of the sterner sex. There are in the United States a large and constantly increasing number of Indian schools, that is, primary grade schools for the education of the younger Indian children on the reservations, and it is coming about that almost all of the teachers in these schools are Indian young women who have qualified for the work at Carlisle or other schools and by courses in normal schools. Indeed the success of great numbers of these young Indian women school teachers in earning their livelihood by brain work while so many of the Indian young men of the period must depend upon manual labor for their earnings emphasizes does nothing more the change that has come about in the course of Indian women. It is under such circumstances, a complete reversal of conditions over those that obtained in the long ago when the Indian women were compelled to do all of the hard labor, whereas the men were responsible only for the lighter tasks,—or, mayah, devoted themselves exclusively to wartime and the chase. There is little doubt that one explanation of the success which so many twentieth century in dian girls are making in various fields of endeavor is found in the heritage of good health which has come to them from generations of healthful ancestors, and the influence of their own early training and out-door life. Particularly would this explanation account for the splendid constitutions possessed by so many Indian girls and which have stood them in good stead in many exacting vocations, for instance, in nursing. Great numbers of Indian girls have qualified as training nurses and the services of most of them trained in the nursing field (112). The Indian baby, strapped to a board or securely packed in an elongated basket woven for the purpose, can neither kick nor squirm and this proves an advantage which is far-reaching in its effect in later life. Similarly is there no danger that the child will attempt to walk at an earlier age than is desirable. From earliest childhood the average Indian girl has been subjected to that rigorous outdoor life which results in making them almost perfect physically. For instance, there may be cited the method followed in giving an Indian child a bath—a weekly event. The mother visits some convenient pool or stream and the young member of the household, after being loosened from her odd cradle, is placed in shallow water to kick and splash to her heart's content. The youngest student is lifted from the water and, instead of being ten-dryly dried with soft linen, is simply hung to the dough of some convenient tree, by means of a cloth tied around the waist, and there dries in the air and the sunshine while the mother stands by, looking with approving eyes upon the progress of this heroic hardening process. In the old days the Indian girls accepted at tender age the traditional lot of Indian women—that of pack horse, and it was nothing unusual in the average Indian camp to see wee girls tolling along with bundles of wood, etc., almost as large as themselves. This condition yet obtains to a considerable extent, although it is not so universal as formerly. The capacity of the Indian girls for hard work, however, finds daily exemplification in every walk of life which they may be mentioned, in daily life, that whatever influence militates on the young woman in whose veins courses Indian blood she never seems to lose that love of ornaments and bright colors which characterizes all children of the wilderness and which the Indian girl will let crop out in her latter-day costumes, even though they be fashioned in accordance with the most conventional modes. Defective Page QUEEN LOUISE LOVED She Was Never Bitter in Grief Over Rovers. A Century After Her Death Her Tomb at Potsdam Was Covered With Fragrant Flowers by Loving Hands. Berlin. Sentiment is an important part of the German temperament and Germans are not ashamed to show it. That may help to explain why, more than a century after her death, the memory of Queen Louise of Prussia is not ashamed to bring by constant gifts of flowers placed on her tomb at Potsdam. But that characteristic of the Germans does not serve wholly to explain the flowers that are kept always fresh. Other German kings and queens have died and been forgotten almost before the official court mourning ceased. It must indeed have been a very rare and charming personality that made its owner so beloved by subjects that they preserved tenderly. The memory of her in their hearts and handed down that memory to their children and their children's children. Queen Louise was more than a ruler's wife—she was a charming, brave, womanly woman, and moreover, she was beautiful. Although a princess of Mecklenburg, she was brought up with much less of formality and more of home life than is contained in the curriculum of a large number of American debatents today. The Princess Louise at sixteen was good to look upon. She was tall and slender, her eyes deep blue and her hair brown, with glints of sunlight in it. Her skin was clear and transparent and her exquisite coloring did not need the aid of rouge pot or powder. And then came into her life her Prince Charming. He was Queen Louise. Frederick William, son of the king of Prussia and heir to the throne of that country. In 1793, when the Princess Louise was only seventeen years old, she was married to the crown prince. It was in a troubled time that Louise had come to be the wife of the future king of Prussia. The French revolution had already broken out and the propagandists of France were sending out armies of conquest into Europe to spread the doctrines of liberty, equality and fraternity. Prussia, temporized and delayed, made an alliance with France, discarded it, and finally joined the enemies of Napoleon. The queen spent much of her time with her husband in camp and her courage in that time of national calamity had made her doubly dear to the soldiers. It is said that it was her advice led to the war on France. It is certain that she hated Napoleon most cordially and he seems to have returned the compliment. But when the country had been overwhelmed by the French the king believed that Louise might be able to induce the French emperor to grant easier terms to Prussia than he was at first inclined to. With that end in view Queen Louise consented to an interview with Napoleon at Tilsit. The French emperor's estimate of Prussia's queen was altered by that interview, but his intentions regarding her country were inexorable. Soon after that interview Napoleon overwhelmed Austria and Prussia's last forlorn hope of rescue was gone. But Queen Louise was not bitter in her grief and disappointment. To Use Motor Field Guns Detroit, Mich.—The government of Guatemala has a motor car company of this city through its New York agency, three motor cars to be equipped with machine guns and wireless apparatus for use in war. The cars will be the standard 1912 chassis, with a pony tonneau body. The armament will be Colt rapid fire guns with a capacity of 600 shots a minute. They will be mounted in front of the driver's seat. The wireless will have a 35-foot mast. It will be operated with the regular dynamo used for lighting and startling and will be good for communication at a distance of 50 miles. Each car will have a balloon to take the wireless rig higher, when necessary, and thus increase its efficiency. The cars, equipped, will cost in the neighborhood of $4,000 each. DATE GROWING IN TEXAS Federal Government Aiding Development of Fruit in Southern Part of Lone Star State. Fort Brown, Tex.—The federal government is lending valuable assistance to the development of the date growing industry in South Texas. In the government plant testing gardens at Fort Brown are a number of varieties of date palms which are said to be doing as well as in the countries where these fruit bearing trees are native. There are already many producing date palms in the lower border region of Texas, but it was not until the last few years that steps began to be taken to place the industry on a Texas Date Tree. commercial basis. As a result of the success that has been attained at the Fort Brown reservation in growing the palms many people of this section have planted large groves of the trees and some of them have already come into bearing. A co-operative date farm, conducted by the United States department of agriculture, was also established near Laredo, Tex., a few years ago. Four acres of the palms have been planted and a large part of them are in bearing. The yield of some of the trees is enormous, often amounting to as much as 500 pounds of the delicious fruit. One of the requirements of successful date growing is an abundance of water and plenty of sunshine. There must also be a minimum of cold weather. Rich soil is, of course, necessary. All of these elements are found in the region. Some of the seeding date palms on the ranches and farms of this section have been producing abundant crops of fruit for many years, but it was not until the government took hold of the matter and began to demonstrate the possibilities of the industry from a commercial standpoint that it was taken hold of on a scale commensurate with the profitable returns that it promises to bring the growers. MAN WHO SUGGESTED PEACE Was Long Time Finding Out What He Was Good For, But Finally Landed High. New York—It took Lincoln Steffens a long time to find out what he was good for. He spent his youth in California hunting and having a good time generally. He was graduated from the University of California and then went to Europe, where he studied in the University of Heidelberg, Leipzig, Berlin and the United States, topped that study of by marrying a fellow student at Sorbonne and going to London, where he spent much time in research work in the British museum. Then he considered himself ready to enter the field of letters. He Lincoln Steffens. was made editor of McClure's after several years of newspaper work. One day Mr. McClure, just back from abroad, entered Steffens' office and said without, preamble: "Steffens, you're getting out a rotten magazine. You don't know anything about the country. Don't you realize you are living in the United States? Go out and see something." Steffens did. He had imagination and enthusiasm and had at last become limbered up mentally after his long years of academic study. He had energy and an unlimited supply of questions. The result of that trip was a remarkable series of exposures of municipal graft that made him famous. $2.40 PER YEAR Spanish Monarch Acts Like Ordinary Man Occasionally. When on Vacations at His Summer Residence Alfonso Talks, Walks, Rides and Mingles Generally With the People. San Sebastian, Spain.—At this beautiful northern coast resort of Spain King Alfonso XIII enjoys life in his boyish, free fashion, imagine a great round bay so locked in that its waters are a pond. High around its edges circle the villas of the rich, while along the sandy shore the Royal Yacht club and bath houses adjoin private beaches next to the great hotels and the public promenade. Along the sands the public bath houses and gay tents flash all colors, fairly soaked in sunlight, even in late autumn. The stone promenade, bordered by shade trees and forged iron balustrades, continues round the bay, through gorgeous parks and gardens to the public gambling halls, with the marble terraces and flowers, restaurant and cafes, one of the most luxurious cinnamon bakes. All this is the modern but best of wedge, shady streets, parks and moments in bronze and marble, rich shops, cafe terraces and flaunting awnings, street sprinklers, gushing tountains and that mixed perfume of orange peel, violets and tuberoses that marks the south of Europe. Chief of the villas perched high around the bay is the king's Miraman palace, half hidden among its forests. At night any traveler can lose himself in its winding alleys, lighted by 900 electric lamps. Anyone who has been there must have thought how easy it would be for armed conspirators to enter the park and take the palace by surprise. The guard at the gate is composed of three men of the Minarets corps. At the wide door of King Alfonso. the palace the only sentry is an old veteran, wearing many decorations, but unarmed. The idea generally held that the king of Spain lives surrounded by an army to protect his life is absurd. The "Alaraberos"—mounted escort—and the large military staff is regularly invisible in its barracks behind the palace and merely to the court protocol. When the royal family arrives and audience lives in the evenings after and audience over, it is no more protected than any other well-to-do family of San Sebastian. Every day while in residence at San Sebastian, the king, uncompanied by soldiers, on foot, on horseback, or in auto or carriage, can be seen going about. We met him once in a lone spot of the Cormice, writes a traveler, attempting to clean three myriad plates that got choked by soot. My French friend asks and asks the customary, "Anything we need." "These plugs are choked with soot," replied Alfonso. His chauffeur was respectfully offering new ones, when our French friend—a pure automobile crank like the king—explained that he could clean those plugs by backing rapidly up the slope. "That is what I said," cried Alfonso. "Oust! tumble in!" and, with a very tricky swing, he got his weight on the car and started the heavy motor, his chauffeur he was up to, jumped in beside his own companion, a silent military man, and began backing up the slope at second speed. "Now that is just the type of automobile crank who will not let his chauffeur do a thing," explained the Frenchman. From this time Alfonso nodded to us with a smile, content that here were three men and a lady who had seen him, Alfonso, acting as a man. Pool Ball In His Mouth Philadelphia. — Robert Wilson, a youth living at 1330 North Eighth street, made a bet with several companies that he had the largest mouth in the crowd, and to prove his assertion thrust a pool ball between his jaws. He won the wager, but lost several teeth, for the ivory ball fitted his mouth so well that it took two hours' work on the part of physicians at the Children's Homeopathic hospital to remove the ball, and that was accomplished only after the forces had been used. Wilson walked to the hospital with his friends. The physicians first told him to force the ball out with his tongue. His efforts were unavailing. He was forced to wear Jaws so great that it was determined to sacrifice five front teeth. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL? PUBLISHED WEEKLY BY ADAMS BROS.

Entered as second class matter June 6, 1885 at the postoffice at St. Paul, Minn., under act of Congress, March 5, 1885.) T. W. PRESIDENT TAFT. Copyright 1909, by Harris & Ewling. SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1912 True chivalry and gallantry are virtues that are really so rare nowadays that to find a man possessing them both, in a high degree, is something wonderful. To go to the aid of a beautiful woman in distress might smack of these virtues, when selfishness really is the prompting motive. The true test is where these virtues are exhibited unprompted by selfish motives. There was just such a case in Washington, D. C. a few days ago, in which Representative Kendall of Iowa was the hero. When Mr. Kendall alighted from a street car at a busy corner, he saw two white men addressing profane language to an old Afro-American woman, who was carrying a basket of freshly laundered clothes. Presently one of the men struck the woman, felling her. The contents of her basket were scattered in the snow and slush. Mr. Kendall landed his fist squarely on the jaw of the assailant and laid the man motionless in the snow. Then he assisted the unfortunate woman in restoring the clothes to the basket. Had the woman in question been T. PRESIDENT WILLIAM H. TAPI Sets at Rest Reports That He Would Decline Renomination. Says Nothing but Death Will Bar His Candidacy. Vigorous Campaign Planned. M. B. Chairman of the Sub-Committee in Charge of Arrangements for the Republican National Convention. The Best Man The Important Work. white, there would not have been anything extraordinary in Representative Kendall's action, but as she was old, black and poor, he certainly must be every inch a man. We have not the honor of a personal acquaintance with the honorable gentleman, but if we were in reaching distance we would take chances and shake his hand. Iowa may well be proud of having such a man to represent her in Congress, and we would to God that there were more like him everywhere. Not being a resident of his district, we cannot vote for him, but should he ever be a candidate for president of the United States, he will get my vote and the votes of all the Afro-American voters. Again we say, Three Cheers for Representative Kendall! MISSIONARIES MUCH EXERCISED. MUSICIANATES MUST EXERCISE Some of the alleged Christian missionaries in the Far East are very much exercised over reports of the recent entertainment of Admiral Togo, in this country, and have protested against lavish entertainment of oriental dignitaries, and particularly against entertainment on Sundays. The ground for the protest is that "we are a nominally Christian nation and distinguished guests from the Far East have difficulty in reconciling our liberal uses of Sunday, with the teachings of Christian missionaries in the Orient." That's all a lot of buncombe. The missionaries, many of whom have gone to the Orient to teach "jim crow" religion to the natives do not wish to have prominent men of the various colored races treated with consideration, because it puts "wrong ideas into their minds," and makes them think they are as good as white people. The best way to convince the colored peoples of the world of the sincerity of the missionaries, and of the people of this country, who furnish the money to support the missionaries, is to abolish the color line, right here at home and give the Afro-American a square deal in everything and not attempt to convert him in "jim crow" institutions. Caucasian American Christianity is all right until it reaches the color line and then it is all wrong. It has been more or less asserted by scientists and others that both Adam and Jesus Christ were not white, which, of course, is easy to believe when one thinks of the fact that even at the present time only about one eight of the population of the world is white. But now comes a Theosophist, D. S. M. Unger of Chicago, who declares he knows for a fact that Christ is coming back to earth within the next twenty years. Says Mr. Unger: "Whenever a nation or the world really needs a great leader, he turns up. The world is sadly in need of a great religious leader these days and so I know Christ is coming back within the next twenty years. And, in order that humanity may have no trouble in being certain of the presence of Christ, he will have a brown body." Well, if Christ returns to this earth brown in color, there are people in the United States who will not accept him. The New York board of health has declared that three drinks per day is the limit to keep healthy. The report from the board goes farther and explains: "Heart disease and cirrhosis of the liver are often associated with the excessive use of stimulants. It is hard to establish any standard for what is excess, as there is a marked difference in individuals. Many physicians believe that a man is better off without spirits. Anything above three ounces of alcohol a day, which is equivalent to about six of whisky, or three drinks, is excessive." All right, then! We'll confine ourselves to only three drinks per day. The Taft Boom has reached Chicago, with the subcommittee having in charge all of the arrangements for the Republican National Convention which meets June 18th. Every member of the committee favors the renomination of President Taft. The young man who in a burst of enthusiasm over some girl's sweet voice, tells her that he could listen to her voice all the rest of his days, takes desparate chances. This is leap year, doncherno! The copperhead Chicago Tribune gloats over the fact that there is a color line in South Africa. For many years the Tribune has exerted its influence to arouse race prejudice in Chicago, and a recent editorial shows that it is very happy in having discovered in Africa a precedent for separate schools in Chicago. 25th ANNIVERSARY Serg't. and Mrs. Z. A. Pope Celebrate "Silver Wedding" The Reception a Brilliant Social Function is Attended by Upward of Three Hundred of the Twin Cities' Most Representative Citizens---List of Presents. Wedding receptions, even those held immediately after the wedding ceremony, and before—as the saying goes—the matched mariners on the matrimonial sea have had a chance to "get their feet wet," are usually more or less pleasant affairs. The voyagers have high hopes, and so have their friends, that they will be able to steer clear of the rocks and shoals and wrecks that are a constant menace to smooth, safe sailing. Then everybody, even though a little dubious perhaps, wishes them bon voyage! Everybody is the best humor and everybody tries to see that everybody else is happy, and they assume an air of joyousness even though they feel it not. day; Misses Katie Palmer, Ida Mac Johnson; Mr. Medley, St. Paul.

But when a couple have buffeted the waves for a quarter of a century in all sorts of weather, have steered clear of matrimonial squalls, affinities, divorce courts etc. etc., and are lying at anchor in the snug home harbor disturbed only by the daily rise and fall of the tide, certainly it is a proper time for all to feel good all through and to enter into the spirit of the occasion and tender hearty congratulations and felicitations. Such occasion was that of the celebration of the 25th anniversary or "Silver Wedding" reception of Sergt. and Mrs. Zachariah A. Pope, their cosy residence, 216 W 31st street, Minneapolis, Friday evening, Jan. 19. The several rooms of the house were appropriately decorated by Mrs. Frank Boyd of St. Paul, with evergreens, smilax, carnations, etc., and had a very pleasing appearance. Mrs. Pope nee Mary E. Young, is a native of Minneapolis, and has seen the Twin City grow from a small village to its present vast proportions; and, of course, knows and is known, by almost every one worth knowing in the city. She is a communicant of St. Thomas Episcopal church and has been an earnest worker, not only in the church, but in all lines looking toward the betterment of humanity. She is the happy possessor of a cheerful and amiable disposition for which she is generally admired by all who know her. Serrt. Pope received his title in the A. SERG'T. AND MRS Z ACHARIAH A. POPE. United States army, which he joined at the age of sixteen years, and retired a few years ago, after an honorable service of 30 years. He was a member of the famous 25th infantry, which was for years stationed at Fort Snelling, and has the distinction of being a charter member of Mars lodge No. 2202; and, in fact, was the first man initiated in the lodge, which was organized at Fort Snelling. Like his better half he is noted for his genial, warm hearted disposition and is respected by all who know him for his honesty and integrity. Though retired from service he is still at the Fort employed as steward of the officers' club—who wouldn't be without him. He is generous and public spirited and you may always count on Sue Fope when any effort is being made to maintain a statistic or progress nature. Hence it is not surprising that upward of three hundred guests were present, in response to the invitations that had been issued, to pay their respects. About eight oclock Capt. J. A. Lych played the wedding march and the bride and groom of twenty-five years before entered the parlor, when a short but appropriate ceremony was performed by Rev. A. H. Lealtad, rector of St. Thomas. The bride looking almost as young as she did when she plighted her troth, though perhaps grown somewhat buxom, was attired in a gown of grey silk while her liege lord was appropriately attired in a black Prince Albert suit. In the receiving line were: Mesdames M. Jackson, J. A. Roberts, E. J. Stewart, Geo. Brady, Minnie Plummer, Fruh Boyd, Geo. Amos, R. A. Van Hook, Rbt. Young and Miss Fannie Johnson. Missed Mildred Plummer, Mayne Nelson and Helen Brady, served the real champagne punch. Toothsome refreshments were bountifully served in the dining room and everything went merry as a marriage bell. The honored and honorable couple were the recipients of a number of handsome and useful presents, a list of which with their donors are as follows: Handsome silver, gold lined loving cup, Mars Lodge No. 2202 G.

DON'T MISS THIS, AS IT WILL BE GREAT, BESIDES YOU WILL AID A GOOD CAUSE. Henry Smith may thank his stars that Detective Murnane tried his new heart test on him. According to German criminologists, the heart action will tell whether one is guilty of a crime or not. Smith was arrested at the Union depot as a vagrant Thursday and when taken to the central station the detective thought he recognized in Smith a burglar wanted in Minneapolis. He applied the heart test, listening to the prisoner's heart beats while questioning him. The test was convincing and Smith was set free. This is the first time the theory has been put to the test in St. Paul. St. James A. M. E. church was packed Thursday night with an audience attracted by the Grand Ensemble of musical talent of St. Paul, and they got their moneys worth. The program of 21 numbers was a most delightful one and was enjoyed by the large audience, as was evinced by the hearty applause that was given. The program included selections by Hilyard's orchestra, Johnson trio, St. James and Pilgrim Junior choirs; solos by Mrs. Addie Crawford-Minor, Mrs. Hattie Loomis-Oliver, Mrs. May Black-Mason, Mrs. Mattie Jackson-Campbell, Mrs. Hattie Grissom-Hall, Mr. Lloyd Hickman, Mr. John Hickman Jr.; duet Mrs. Mattie Campbell and Mr. C. H. Miller; violin solo Mr. David Johnson; readings Mrs. Bessie Miller, Mrs. Mattie Hall, Mrs. Bettie Jones; accompanies, Profs. James Johnson and W. A. Weir, Mrs. Emma Archer, Miss Albreta Bella, Miss Pearl Duncan. Mr. O. C. Hall, master of ceremonies; Mr. C. H. Miller, general manager. The proceeds were for the benefit of the church. A repetition of the grand affair, augmented by other talent and selections, will be given at Pilgrim Baptist church at a date to be announced. 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.

"Oft to some patient married man I turn, The secret of his dumb content to learn, But lip to car he whispers; 'Fool, beware! Stay Free! Once married, there is no return!' Oh, threats of Hell and hopes of Paradise! One thing is certain! When a Husband dies No wife shall ever greet him There with "Wheres?" or "Whys?" Nor mock with laughter his most subtilie lies!

Smith, born a slave in Tennessee 75 years ago, left property worth $116, 000, according to his will, which was filed for probate here yesterday. Smith ran away in 1862 and joined the Union army, acting as a guide for Gen. John A. Logan. After the war Smith came to Champaign, he bought a small tract of land. He added to his holdings steadily until at his death he owned 500 acres of rich farm lands. "LOVE'S YOUNG DREAM." The Next Attraction at the Grand Opera House. The latest success of Fiske O'Hara, "Love's Young Dream," is booked to appear at the Grand next week, commencing Sunday Matinee, Jan. 28. In this play Mr. O'Hara gives us an excellent picture of life in Ireland during the early part of the eighteenth century, one of the golden ages of the country. This was the period in which the Irish gentleman of wealth and position lived on his own estates and took pride in the breeding of his horses and then riding them in the steepechase. There is a real snap to the story, for this was the age of dash and go, and the play would not reflect the spirit of the age if it did not possess the necessary accessions to comment on the fitness of Mr. O'Hara to portray a role of this type. He has proved by his artistic and intelligent interpretations of similar roles in the past that he is eminently fitted for the work. The production is the work of Robert E. Irwin and is said to be one of the most elaborate ever seen in Irish drama.

The marriage customs of insects are dreadful, and, contrary to what happens in every other world, here it is the female of the couple who stands for strength and intelligence, and also for cruelty and tyranny, which appear to be their inevitable consequence. Almost every wedding ends in the violent and immediate death of the husband. Often the bride first eats a certain number of suitors. The type of these fantastic unions could be supplied by the Languedocian scorpions, who, as we know, carry lobster claws and a long tail supplied with a sting, the prick of which is extremely dangerous. They have a prelude to the festival in the shape of a sentimental stroll, claw in claw; then, motionless, with fingers still gripped, they contemplate each other blissfully, intermindable; and day and night pass over their ectasy, while they remain face to face, petrified with admiration. Next, the foreheads come together and touch; the mouths—if we can give the name of mouth to the monstrous orifice that opens between the claws—are in a sort of bliss; after which the union is accomplished, the male is transfixed with a mortal lunge and the terrible spouse crunches and gobbles him down with relish. But the Mantis, the costate insect with the arms always raised in an attitude of supreme invocation, the horrible Mantis reginae, or praying incense, does better still; she corses her husbands (for the insatiable creature sometimes consumes seven or eight running) while they press her passionately to their heart. Her inconceivable kisses devour, not metaphorically, but in an appalling; real reasion, the ill-timed choice of her soul or her stomach. She begins with the head, goes down to the thorax, and does not stop till she comes to the hind legs, which she deems too tough. She then pushes away the unfortunate remains, while a new lover, who was quietly awaiting the end of the monstrous banquet, heroically comes forward to undergo the same fate—Maurice Mae terlnick in the Forum. SHOCK OF BIG GUN FIRING Deafness is a Sure Result and Nerves and Senses are Terribly Strained. One of the penalties attendant on filing off big guns is deafness. So sure is this penalty to be exacted that, it is asserted, no man can go through a long series of gunnery practise without having his hearing affected. A stranger on deck who hears a big gun speak for the first time will not soon forget the stunning report. One gun is enough to startle a stranger, but the shattering effect of the whole armament when in action together can hardly be conceived. The strain upon nerves and senses when the rending concussion takes place is terrible. There is not a great difference between the effect of the big guns and that of the smaller pieces, strange as it may seem. If the visitor places himself beside one of the smaller guns, and then listens to the roar of the big one, the sound will not appear much louder than that of the gun by his side. The extra distance to the muzzle of the big piece discounts the sound. The only apparent difference between the two will be that the smaller piece has a sharper, high-pitched tone, and that the big guns speak with a more bellowing roar. If one watches the firing of the gun the crash has not such a startling effect as when it comes unexpectedly. Loud as it is, nature has prepared the watcher to resist the shock which he knows is impending. No More Room. The elevator slipped rapidly by one floor after another, while many inmates of a large office building rang the bell and demanded to be carried to the street. It was the noon hour and every one at the elevator shaft was anxious to get lunch. The elevator seemed to be only half filled. Actually there were three girls and a man in it who had got on at the fifteenth floor. "Filled up," shouted the operator, as he sped by the angry crowd at the door. Finally he reached a floor where one of the officers of the company had his office, and the man was there and wanted to go down. He shouted to him, "Filled up," and the man said something positive. Then the operator added: "Filled up with hats." Oxford Hospitality Oxford, which Lord Curzon desires to "reform," has traveled very far from the condition of things observed by a German explorer toward the end of the eighteenth century. He had arrived at the city at midnight and was introduced by a Good Samaritan to the Mitre. Here, to his intense astonishment, he saw several gentlemen in academic dress seated round a table, each with a pot of beer in front of him. "My health," says the traveler, "was drunk in strong ale. At last, as morning drew near, one of the company exclaimed rather emphatically, 'I must read prayers this morning at All Souls.'"—London Chronicle. "Did he have any luck on his fishing trip?" "Enough to keep him in conversation for several weeks." "Will you be kind enough to remove your hat, madam?" the usher asked at the summer theater in an unstylish whisper. "Why should I?" the woman asked. "There is nobody behind me. Who wants me to take my hat off?" "That man back there." "But it doesn't obstruct his view of the stage. I am three seats to the right of him." "That is true, mahm, but you cut off a view of the women in the right lower box. That seems to be what he is interested in."
