LOST TREASURES UNDER THE ENGLISH FLAG Gold and Jewels still waiting to be found by some Modern Adventurer by Buffington Phillips VOL. 28. NO. 30. LOST T THE ENG Gold and J waiting to some Mod Adventure by Buffington T REASURES where the cows find them; treasures which the divers can see, but cannot reach; treasures where only superstitious fears stand in the way of recovery such is the Great Britain in and about Great Britain occupying the richest fields in the world for the treasure-hunting adventurers. The most ardent seeker of these troves was King John. Most of his time was spent in hunting buried treasures of other centuries, assembling the gold and jewels of England and burying them again. Only those groups of known value and of certain or nearly certain location can be mentioned in this article, as well as those they were. It was known that the King had knowledge, gleaned from old documents, that the Roman during the time of their occupation, had great quantities of gold, silver, jewels and plate in a fashionable resort in the north of England, and, being cut off in the rear by an invasion of Picts and Scots, buried it in a vast trove near the old Roman wall in Northumberland. King John made extensive explorations and found a large cache made at a later period, but did not find the more important store of wealth. He removed his find to Hermitage Castle, and, according to all accounts, the masonry of the wall was opened from the outside and the treasure once again. Once similar to the true clue to the Roman cache was found and lost again through the brutality and stupidity of some English county officials in Northumberland. Two poor and ignorant farm laborers were working in a field on the line of the old Roman ruin one day and sat down, in the shade of a heap of stones, for their lunch. Idly, they turned over a large stone, and in the bottom of the cavity left they saw an enormously heavy chain. Pushing away the dirt until they could get hold of it, they drew it out. It was a severe feet in leathery weighed enough to make a burden for both of them. Seemingly it was brass, and they left it till the moment when they were working with a cart. At evening they were in the cart and carried it home, leaving it against a wall of the carriage as a curious but useless find. One Sunday when idling with some neighbors they fell to discussing the chain, and one of the neighbors scraped it with a knife. He said it looked and felt more like gold than brass and was very soft. Taking a broken link to the market he next went to the elder of the two finders submitted it to a jeweler, who pronounced it solid gold of a very fine quality. The neighbor who had made the discovery of the nature of the find thought he should have half and be let in on the secret of the remainder. This was refused, so he informed the authorities, and the two peasants were arrested, spent a long in jail, and, as a result of the ill treatment, one of them insisted. The older man finally refused to disclose the spot where the chain was found, having taken an oath when he flogged in prison that he would never tell any one. This was his method of getting even and it proved very effective. It is curious indeed that the termination of the great treasure hunter and hider's career should be marked by the interment of wealth in an amount as great, or greater, than that involved in any of his previous exploits. In his historic flight, King John's party carried with it not only an enormous treasure in the store of gold that represented the royal funds, but a cumbersome weight of treasures he had acquired, and more valuable today than all the others—the full regalia, crown jewels, and insignia of the great orders of which the King was head. The British Museum and the various orders would pay at least $25,000,000 for the recovery of these, and yet it does not seem a difficult matter. Some individual or syndicate with the proper backing could easily look up the circumstances as contained in the old records and make a consistent, determined effort. the most ardent seeker of these troves was King John.

Two poor and ignorant farm laborers were working in a field on the line of the old Roman ruin one day and sat down, in the shade of a heap of stones, for their lunch. Idly, they turned over a large stone, and in the bottom of the cavity left they saw an enormously heavy chain. Pushing away the dirt until they could get hold of it, they drew it out. It was several feet in length, well heighed enough to make a burden for both of them. Similarly it was brass, and they left it till the moment they were working with a cart. At evening they put it in the cart and carried it home, leaving it against the wall of the stable as a curious but useless find.

Some individual or syndicate with the proper backing could easily look up the circumstances as contained in the old records and make a consistent, determined effort. The royal fugitive and retinue were riding in hats on the Wash, and the animals on which the precious load was carried mired so frequently in the lowlands that it was decided to cache the treasure. The King and a few faithful noblemen superintended the work, impressing some peasants for the labor. The records state distinctly that the interment took place precisely where the road crosses the river to Lynn. The old road ran where there is now a morass in spring and fall, baked dry in summer. A few years ago, during the drought season, some farmers, sinking a well so as to water the cattle that were feeding on the marsh grass, struck an odd crown of solid gold, but made no further excavation. By the time London heard of the find, the season had changed and the spot was a swamp once more. There is no question in my mind, after reading all accounts, that the treasure is there and can be excavated with a steam shovel located on a barge into the mouth of the great Ouse. In 1709, when England was at war with the Netherlands, H. M. S. Lutine sailed from Yarmouth for Cuxhaven.

The United Kingdom was literally girdled with sunken treasure in the latter part of the sixteenth century. Sir Francis Drake returned in 1580 from his great journey of exploration to California, and he had an adequate idea of the vast amount of gold which was being carried in Spanish ships from Mexico and South America to Spain. As a matter of fact, there was so numerous it is Spain that the possessors did not know what to insure and the idea of the great Armada may have been an effort to find a glorious means of expanding the royal wealth and the wealth of the ambitious nobles as to have a method of diverting the attention of the poorer classes, who were very little better off in spite of the flood of gold that had come to the Peninsula. However that may be, the great Armada is usually considered a magnificent adventure which was meant to crush the power of England at sea and to humble the kingdom to a state of possession to sealsage to Spain, her bitter enemy. The English ships were well-trained, merely fitted vessels for the way of conquesting else, Spanish ships had, in some cases, well-sails, many splendid cannons, and even the lowest estimated accounts say that from seventy to one hundred millions in Spanish gold and silver was the sum total in treasures distributed among eighty great ships. How Sir Francis Drake and the British admirals and captains fell on the fleet and scattered it, how in battle after battle it was worsted, is a matter of history familiar to every one. The bulk of the Armada, driven by a great storm, was hurried into the North Sea and, vainly endeavored to circle by the Orkneys and the Shetlands and back to France, was brought through Minches, the North Channel, Irish Sea, and George's Channel, was wrecked in strange waters. It is impossible in brief space to go into detail concerning all of these rich sunken wrecks. Each of them that is known has its more or less definite history and from some of them millions of dollars' worth of trappings and treasure were recovered in the years following soon after the gigantic disaster. One of the Spanish Armada ships, the Florencia, went to the Sound of Mull in 1588. She had a vast treasure board, and when she was attacked by a band of Spanish underer blew her up. The Duke of Argyll spent a fortune in the search. His ancestors have been hunting since 1664, and in 1667 an announcement was made public that the old records showed that there was $30,000,000 in money on her, besides the gold and silver plate. None of it has ever been recovered, although the Argyll family have the full information of where the wreck lies. The Cavalier treasure of Marston Moor is an island in the historic field where the villagers and Cavailers contended have been thrown into excitement by finds of gold-pieces and by the arrival of parties of strangers who the villagers imagine have come to look for the treasure. The story of this trove is that before the battle, owing to the necessity of shifting headquarters of the King's government so often, the army funds in four chests, each of which could be transported en pannier between two large horses, was brought to the Cavalier camp. A sudden descent of the Roundhead cavalry cut off the treasure, its guardian, who held out stubbornly, and buried the treasure hastily. The Cavailers buried the treasureure, but the battle of Marston Moor followed. The ground was torn up with hoops, fire swept part of the plain, and the marks were gone, so it has remained undisturbed ever since. No not quite undisturbed—a village cow found it, but did not find other advantages and could not bear the load.pler, her son. It is a well-known fact that when certain forms of stomach trouble affect cows, and other animals, they seek metal oxides, and will swallow nails, rusty iron, and bits of jewelry. This particular cow was so troubled. Her grazing-ground included part of the general locality in which the treasure is known to lie. She was noticed licking the rusty hinges of the pasture gates, licking an old plowshare, and some weeks later she gave evidences of being in great pain. The she was found to have been called in council and decided that she had grazed that disagreed with her, and, partly out of curiosity and partly through desire to save the beef by killing her before she died, the owner had an end put to her misery and an autopsy was held. Imagine the excitement when the butchers opened the stomach and, amid nails, bits of iron, and copper, found a number of gold-pieces of the Cavallier treasure and a small latch-lock of the type which there must have been several one of the treasure chests. The soil had been covered with the treasure, and the cow had found it and absorbed her mortal end. The wisacres then told the owner that if he had kept the cow alive till she returned to the spot where she had found the treasure he might have watched her and soon discovered it. He worried over his folly till he grew so despondent that he hanged himself. The square face of Gibraltar, made so familiar in the America by use in advertising, in reality the landward side. Between the Rock and the mountain, the sandy strip that is neither British nor Spanish. The strip that always been a great haunt of smugglers, and the strip that always been their greatest danger, was In 1870 the dangerous Theron band desisted from smuggling long enough to run some cargoes of arms into Spain for the use of Don Carlos and his army. After securing some $450,000 they set out to effect a retirement from Gibraltar, and made their way to Jaen, where a wealthy merchant was known to have some $600,000, collected in readiness for use in the Carlist cause. Under pretext that they had instructions to deliver a shipload of munitions to him at Malaga, and displaying the documentary evidences of their late deal with Don Carlos, they persuaded the merchant to accompany them on the road to Malaga, and fitting opportunity came they murdered him, three times into a dry ravine, and with their weight of wealth into a fold and English notes, set out for Gibraltar. The body was found sooner than they had expected, and they were pursued. Some ten miles from the neutral ground they were overtaken, and a running fight occurred, in which Gasprey, one of the outlaws, was killed in a most spectacular manner. Four of the outlaws crouched among the rocks and held the pursurers at bay, anxiously awaiting Theron's return. But when the dawn came they found that he had buried the treasure, turned the mules lose, and was making his way back to them when a bullet had stretched him out dead on the sand. Seeing this, the four now tried to retreat toward the Rock, one after the other, but they were shot down. When it was found that there had been over a million miles in body with the party, a careful search was begun, but the drifting sand had obliterated the necessary traces and it has never been recovered. The wind is constantly carrying the sand on this zone, and the Gitani and others who frequent it keep a sharp eye out for the rusted corner of a steel box. Some day the money will be found; in fact, search with a magnetic instrument could disclose it today if some one on the spot only thought of such a device. "OJJE" IN AFRICA Explorer Finds Lake of Dead and a Strange People. P. A. Talbot, Who Located Sacred Body of Water, Describes Wear Scene of Place Never Before Seen by White Men. Cape Town, Africa.-Mr. and Mrs. P. Amary Talbot have just returned to London fresh from Central Africa, where they had spent two years in an anthropological, botanical and ecological survey from the Gulf of Guinea eastward across the continent. In a statement issued to the London press, Mr. Talbot declares that certain territory he and his wife traversed had never been visited by a white man before. He said that in the Southern Nigerian bush he found evidence of the origin of the witchcraft panic, which swept over England, New England and southeastern Europe in the middle of the seventeenth century. Said Mr. Talbot: "The bush, with its soft green twilight, dark shadows, and quivering lights, is popped by many terrors, but among these 'ojle', or witchcraft, reigns supreme. Should the suspicion of witchcraft fall upon any one, only trial by ordeal can free them. The most usual one is that of eating eater, a poisonous bean which almost invariably kills the suspected person. The ordeals of boiling oil poured upon the streams of the hands and of peppermint leaves in the eyes are far less dredged, not only because their results are practically fatal, but because the physical anguish resulted is acknowledged to be less intense than that caused by esere." One of the most interesting discoveries was that of the Lake of the Dead in the Oban country. "The name of this lake," said Mr. Talbot, "occurs in many of the tribal songs, but for a long time I could not discover the meaning of the word, and all inquiries failed to elicit information, and when I believed I was in the neighborhood of this haunted spot and altered my course my carriers begged to be allowed not to proceed, and were left behind. After a struggle through a dense bush we could see the edge of a sheet of water, along the banks of which were the holes of crocodiles, whose tracks covered the shore. The Typical African Magician. scene was a weird one; the surface was absolutely still, and round about were ten-foot high bushes, with what were apparently great turtles of creamy flowers. These, however, proved to be nests of tree frogs. "The place is a sanctuary for all wild things, for no hunter would dare to penetrate the bush to this dreaded spot. As we stood at the edge gaze out over the water its quiet was suddenly broken by a broad ripple, and little fish were seen to spring agitatedly above the surface. A great python was crawling in and out, learned, shared with the crocodile, the guardianship of the Sacred Lake." Describing a visit to a district where all the houses were built of ebony, Mr. Talbot said: "The side of our tent almost touched a little ebony but built over a large and gruesome looked pot, the sides of which were prnamented with iron hooks. Before this, about breast high, and the length of a man, was a kind of altar, made of stout ebony blocks. In front of our tent door was a tall carved pillar, ornamented with strings of human skulls. The people all had the filed teeth and thin, shrunken appearance which are always associated with cannibal riffles, and although they one and all stoutly denied knowledge of anything of the kind, every one of our pot in the little hut meant for the sacrifice of human victims, but the two hideous mud figures of a god and goddess in another shed on the further side of the carved pillar had had their heads worn away by the constant libations of human blood poured over them."

JAPS IMPORT THEIR BRIDES Orientals In Hawaii Send All the Way to the Kingdom for Them. Kaul, Hawaii—"No more Oriental of the laboring class are coming to Hawaii, and a good many of our white citizens who cultivate sugar estates are sorry that the faithful Chinese are barred under the law," said W. P. Harcourt, a sugar planter of the island of Kaul, one of the Hawaiian group. "They are our best workers, and before the exclusion policy was applied we could count on a certain regular infux of bravery Mongolians to toil in the cane fields.

Not many of the Chinese have wives, but in former days not a few of them became the husbands of the native Ka- Types of Japanese Dancing Girls. naka women. It was a good cross, was this half-breed progeny, and so likewise the offspring of the Japanese and native women. In recent times, however, the Japs have been in the habit of sending back to their own land for wives. In most cases I think the self-elected bridegrooms get their parents back in the Flowery Kingdom to pick out wives for them. "The matter is finally arranged through the Japanese consul, the man in the case putting up money for the hour that the lands must also be the wedding hour, the authorities will not allow the fairer to remain less claimed and formally mated according to some civil or religious ceremony that both parties consider binding. "Every now and then a wireless message comes to my plantation which tells one of my young Japanese hired men that he may expect on the arrival of the next ship at Honolulu the girl who has been picked out as his wife. I do not think that in many cases the principals have ever laid on each other. On the receipt of the message the man gets permission to go claim his wife, and pretty soon the man are domesticated on the estate, and my understanding is they get on as happily as if they had known each other from infancy and be wedded in the conventional way of the Caucasians. "Not long ago a ship from Yokohama arrived with forty or fifty so-called picture brides. Every one of them had been chosen through photographs forwarded to Hawaii some time in advance of the arrival of the originals. Occasionally there is a pathetic case, as when not long ago a very forced to take the next ship returning to her old home.

MAN GETS LONG LOST $10 Money in Hands of New York Police Chief Since October 11 is Restored to Owner. New York—A ten dollar bill lost on Broadsway October 11 is now in the hands of the owner, after having been for eight months in the hands of Police Commissioner Waldo. More than 1,000 persons applied to the commissioner for the money, but it remained for John F. J. Sheehan of Newark, N. J., to make the successful claim. The bill was turned over to a traffic policeman October 11 by William Fleuer of Berlin, Germany, who said that the bill had blown into his face at forty-second street and Broadway. He explained that the money was blown from his hand by a gust of wind. He had witnesses to prove his claim.

"We were invited to spend several weeks in this province, and as it was likely to prove a novel experience, we came," says Mrs. Marcia Dorothy Ryar, a New Orleans girl who spent several months in the Philippines. "We took the coastwise boat, which below stairs was crammed with natives, ponies, carabas, vegetables, the inevitable fighting cocks (a native neglects his family, but never his game-cock), fish, smell and babies. On the upper deck, however, beneath an awning, we were comfortable enough to steamer chairs. "That evening reached a native town, very odd with (a native straw huts on stilts, and its crazy streets with cats, strings of fish and children. Alsoocks and cockpit—and the jungle behind it all. "There a banca, a clumsy, cane-shaped native boat, decidedly top-heavy and uncomfortable, met us. It was paddled expertly by natives, picturesque in their scanty attire, and wearing at their belts knives quite large enough to make me shudder. We arrived at the station to see a magnificent sunset and eat a unique dinner. On the menu were of course many familiar dishes, but besides there were fried bananas sliced crosswise, thin and crisp, tasting like eggplant, a fried cucumber, roasted, a salad made of coconut buds with mayonnaise. I did not like it at all—rice like popcorn, a smooth scoop chicken with curry and a jelly-like dress from flowers, which tasted like curants, also a drink of coconut milk, which is awful. "The house is a darling. It is large, native in style, of straw, and hambone Negrite Warriors. floors, large rooms, sliding partitions and shower bath in each room. Behind is the jungle, before a fine stretch of lawn, a beach and the water. "That evening we sat on the wide gallery, in the usual steamer chairs, and listened to the plaintive native music from the barrio, where a dance was in full swing. "Our host has a charming, if lonely existence. There are fifty native men in the barrio, whom he oversees at their work. His household arrangements are perfect, but it takes four boys and a cook to keep them so. It seems so funny to see a boy in pink knee pants, no shirt, but a dagger in his belt, serving chocolate, and excellent chocolate at that.

Upon the solid rock of the rights of the individual as granted by the Constitution, the Republican party builds its structure of optimism. The Democratic party, on the other hand, in the opening sentence of its address to the electorate, betrays a recessional quality by raising the Congress, a right again and again confirming by the Supreme Court, to establish protective duties for the benefit of American industries. It declares as false the vital issue of the constitutional liberties of the individual. Such liberties are now assailed by those who advocate the overthrow of the independence of the judiciary. It would leave the individual defended by the protection those rights declared under the Constitution—Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the Republican national committee. SATURDAY, JULY 27, 1912 IT'S CNLY A QUESTION OF TIME. The fact that there is chronicle, almost every day, some fatal accident to aviators does not seem to abate the ardor and activity of the bird men and women. It seems that the notion that the air can be navigated with comparatively little risk is firmly fixed in the public mind and experiments along that line will continue until something like perfection is evolved. It takes time to do many things, yet the advances made along all lines of progress in the last century far exceeds that made in a 1,000 years before, and it is not at all unreasonable to believe that the time is not far distant when the dangers of air travel will be almost entirely oblated. Over four hundred years ago Mother Shipton prophesied that: Around the world through would fly In the twinkling of an eye. Under water men would walk, Would ride, would talk. On the water iron would float, The same as any wooden boat." --- --- ```markdown ``` [Picture of a man in a suit with a bow tie, facing forward. The background is black.

SHERMAN, Renominated for Vice President by Republicans at Chicago—Great Friend of Afro-American People. All these things are so common now-a-days that, to the younger generation, they seem to have always existed. So it is not unreasonable to predict that it will not be long before some genius will discover how to ride upon the air as safely at least as we do on the land and water. There was once an old and ignorant expounder—no pun intended—of the Bible who in a sermon got a little mixed and declared that there were only two roads, one leading to death and destruction and the other to hell and damnation. An interested listener was so struck by the statement that he remarked, "Then, in that case, I'm going to stand still, right where I am." This is about the position of the Afro-American in the coming election. To follow Roosevelt's road will lead to death and destruction, and to follow Wilson's road will certainly lead to hell and damnation. So the wise ones will stay right where they are and support President Taft, their best friend. There have been many trivial causes alleged for the bringing of suits for divorce by both men and women, but we believe that few people will disagree with us in saying that Wm. P. Crawley, a Minneapolis man, had a good one. Crawley charges that in the seventeen years of his married life his wife has made him move twenty-nine times. He says that the moving habit contracted by his wife has become unbearable, and also that she "beat him up with a broom." He declares that it is unsafe and inconsistent for him to attempt to provide any more homes, and that he is sick and weary from the many moves. Can you blame him? --- What seems to have been the immediate punishment for the infraction of God's law: "Thou shalt not take the name of the thy God in vain," took place in Galena, Ill., this week. As Thomas Johnson, the aged Afro-American sexton of the South Presbyterian church of that city, started to climb the belfry stairs, he jocularly and sacrilegiously remarked: "I'm going up to meet God." A few moments later the old man lost his footing, his weak hands failed him, he fell thirty feet and sustained injuries that are expected to prove fatal. Does it not look like a judgment? It seems that Dr. A. Piatt Andrew, the recently deposed assistant secretary of the treasury, in his attack upon Secretary MacVeagh, has most effectively shown that he is entitled to a high seat in the Ananias cun. The men whom Dr. Andrew quoted as holding the same opinion as himself in regard to Secretary MacVeagh have overwhelmingly repudiated the statements made by the doctor. Next! A very romantic wedding took place in Marshalltown, Iowa, this week, when George M. Minkler, aged 77, and Mrs. Huldah A. Davis, aged 75, both inmates of the Soldiers' Home, were united in wedlock. The groom had been married four times and the bride three. They took a six months' "furlough" immediately after the wedding. Evidently they do not believe marriage is a failure. The outlook for a bumper crop all over the country is so favorable at this time that the dealers in provisions have already begun to reduce the prices on many of the necessities of life. That good crops will knock the stuffing out of the high cost of living is a consummation to be devoutly wished for. A strenuous effort was made at the Democratic National convention to have a plank inserted in the platform disfranchising the Afro-Americans, and yet there will be some boneheads who will vote the Democratic ticket at the coming election. The United States still stands at the head of the heap in the Olympic games at Stockholm, and, as usual, the Afro-American is helping. The Democrats have nominated Wilson and Marshall. Taft and Sherman will beat them to a frazzle. Like the famous whiskey: The nomination of Wilson—that's all. Taft will be elected. Emblem of Church Should Be First Illicit Distilling Is on the Increase THAT LOOKS LIKE SOME KIND OF AN INSECT WASHINGTON—Boy Scouts of America are doing a piece of real and extremely useful scouting. They are searching for trees that are afflicted with disease or insects. This work was started in Pennsylvania, where a disease is destroying thousands of chestnut trees. The boys have been of great help to the forestry department in detecting this disease and reporting the trees thus afflicted to the department of forestry. That work afforded an excellent piece of scouting for boys and the result has been that boy scouts throughout the country have written to James E. West, chief scout executive of the Boy Scouts of America, asking for information about other diseases and insects that affect trees and shrubs. They wanted something definite to look for in their hikes through the woods. As a result George H. Merritt, one of the secretaries employed by the Boy Scouts of America, is compiling with the aid of Gifford Pinchot, former United States forester and member of the National Council of the Boy Scouts of America, a chapter for the manual and for the scoutmasters outlining different diseases of the most significant trees. A CHURCH flag is the emblem and standard of God, and to place it above the flag of the United States during religious services aboard a vessel is but little enough recognition of God, it was asserted the other day by Dr. E. M. Blackwell, of the navy. "I have noticed that certain parties object to the church pennant being hoisted above the national flag on board ship of the navy during divine services, stating in effect that there is nothing paramount to the national flag." Dr. Blackwell said. "As regards other nations and flags and other human organizations, I fully agree that there is nothing paramount to the United States or its flag, but there is a Supreme Power or Force that is paramount to everything earthly, and the emblem of that Supreme Power or Force, when hoisted, should be hoisted above every other flag or emblem. "As I understand it, the church flag, whether Christian, Jew, Buddhist, Brahman, Confucian, Mahmomedan, or what not, is the emblem and standard of God to that religion and not of the religion itself. "Different nations and peoples have conflicting ideas of God. Some regard Him as a Supreme Being, others as the great Force or Power of the universe or nature; but, however we regard Him, we should recognize Him THERE is no institution on earth that handles as much money as the treasury department of the United States government. It collects and expends all moneys authorized to be collected and expended by congress. It advises congress as to the amount of money necessary to run the government for each fiscal year. It mints the coin, prints the paper money as well as the postage and revenue stamps. Among the other activities of this great department of government is the protection of the people from counterfeiters; the maintenance of vessels to suppress smuggling and to enforce quarantine regulations, to save life, to conserve the public health, construct and maintain public buildings all over the country, and audit and pay the accounts of all the other departments of the government. It also controls and supervises the national banking system, comprising some 8,000 banks, with a capital of a billion dollars and a surplus of MOONSHINING—the act of manfacturing distilled liquors in violation of the internal revenue law—is on the increase all over the country, according to experts of the treasury department. Of course, the department never concerns itself with questions of public policy, and consequently it has nothing to do or say about the increase or decrease of prohibition throughout the United States. Nevertheless the work of the bureau of internal revenue is immediately concerned with this question of public policy, because it has been found that wherever prohibition laws exist there also is afforded the greatest possible incentive for violations of the internal revenue laws by "moonshiners." It will be some weeks yet before the report of the work of internal revenue agents with respect to the enforcement of the laws against "moonshining" will be compiled for the last fiscal year, but enough is known to warrant the statement that there has not only been a great increase, but a great spread of that industry in the last fiscal year. For instance, in the state of North Carolina "moonshining" used to insist almost exclusively in the moun- CAPITAL Boys also are being taught what diseases of the trees and what plants are likely to prove harmful to themselves. This work will train the observation powers of the boys by keeping them alert. They will watch the trees and the shrubs more closely, and through alertness they will appreciate beauty of the trees and of the surroundings, and they will gain many beneficial results from that work. "Among the most destructive insects," said Merritt, "must be enumerated the bark lice or scale insects, plant lice, wood borers, coddling moth, San Jose scale, tent caterpillars, canker worms, tussockmoths, leaf-mining beetles, gall-forming insects, chinchbugs, army worms, weevils and locusts. Aside from this army of destruction to forest and orchard tree alike, and to the lesser plants, there are also causes of loss due to such agents as fungus, animals, weather conditions, etc. "The boy scouts. I think, can be of material service in doing real scouting in locating cases of blighted trees or of those badly affected by insects, feeders and parasites. The real information as to methods of such work will depend largely, of course, upon local or sectional conditions, and vary also with the cause, but with a little care all of this can be worked out into a very good department of scout work. "Most information as to exact causes, kinds of disease and insect troubles, methods' of treatment, location, etc., will come from the various districts of the United States where government entomologists and botanists have been stationed." as the great unmeasurable, overmastering, all powerful, irresistible Force that rules, governs and directs the universe, and should willingly submit to His laws. No matter how grand a personage, or great a nation may be, they have got to succumb to the laws of nature, which are the laws of God. "Men and nations at various times have arrogated to themselves that they were supreme over earth, and have had their answers by being wiped out of existence, so that there is not a vestige left of them, and in destruction by earthquakes, floods, famines, fire, and pestilence and by the foundering of the Titanic and other marine disasters "As a great majority of the people of this country acknowledge the Christian faith, and as Christian people practically rule the world, the church pennant is certainly the one we should use as representing that great Being to whom we owe allegiance." $700,000,000. In short every financial function of the United States comes in contact with this department. Since the administration of President Washington the treasury portfolio has been held by 44 individuals. Seventeen states have furnished all the men who have presided over the treasury department down to and including the present incumbent. They have come from various sections of the country. Geographically the north Atlantic division of states supplied nearly one-half; 21 came from the states embraced in that division. The north central division of states was represented by 12; the south central by 6 and the south Atlantic by 5. The western division of states, as yet, have not been called upon for a treasurer. New York and Pennsylvania have been represented oftener than their sister states, as they have each given 7 secretaries of the treasury. Ohio comes next with 5. Then follow Kentucky with 4; Massachusetts and Indiana, 3 each; Georgia, Maryland, Maine and Illinois, 2 each; Connecticut, Tennessee, Delaware, New Hampshire, Mississippi and Iowa, 1 each. Virginia, the Empire state of the early times of the republic, the mother of presidents, and the home of statesmen, has never furnished a secretary of the treasury. TR OFFICERS ARE COMIN'** tain regions. Today the state is honeycombed with illicit stills. The greatest increase in this illegal business in recent years has been noted in Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Tennessee. While the internal revenue officers have been constantly raiding the districts where the illicit industry has been known to exist for half a century or more, a backfire has sprung up in the settled districts of those states which has necessitated an increase in the force of inspectors and agents and great diligence and energy all along the line. Furthermore, the "moonhining" industry has begun to invade the north, and particularly, some of the larger cities of the north, where the possibility of hiding is excellent. Knowles Building.

Special Correspondence THE APPEAL-Hampton, Va., July 25—The National Federation of Afro-American Women's Clubs opened its session upon the beautiful and historic spot where was founded by General Armstrong—who was one of our best friends—that great institution of learning, Hampton Institute. Great, not only in its industrial achievements, but doubly great in that it made possible Booker T. Washington and caused thereby the foundation of Tuskegee Institute. Women from all parts of the United States are here. Women who stand for the best in the communities in which they live. Women who do things, and are obsessed with the desire to benefit the race, and are maxing history as to our womanhood. Practically all of the leaders are here. The opening ceremonies were very impressive and the convention organized without a clash of any kind. Harmony seems to be the watchword and spirit of the meeting. Mrs. W. T. Francis was appointed second recording secretary. Many important committees were appointed to facilitate the work or the deepest interest in the case which the committee was managing the committee designated to call upon the Governor at Richmond for the purpose of securing the commutation Mary E. MRS. W. T. FRANCIS, St. Paul Representative. of the death sentence imposed upon a young Afro-American woman. This committee was composed of Mrs. Mollie Church Terrill, of Washington, D.C., and Mrs. W. T. Francis, of St. Paul The ladies at once went to Richmond and were successful so far as to secure from the Governor a stay of two weeks with the privilege of introducing new evidence, and from the Governor's attitude the committee is satisfied that the death penalty will not be enforced Weather conditions here are ideal. This is the largest convention ever held by the National Federation, more than five hundred delegates being in attendance. Reports from all parts of the country show a large increase in the number of clubs of the various State Federations, and it is conceded that betwok can be done where all clubs are connected with the state organization. Much work of a helpful nature is under way and the desire uppermost in the minds of all here is to do good and waste no time in frivolity. ALBION W.

MEN'S EPISCOPAL CLUB PICNIC. The picnic given by the Men's Episcopal Club at Spring Park, Lake Minnetonka, last Thursday, as usual proved to be the largest outing of the season, there being upward of 800 persons on the grounds during the day. The day was ideal and nothing occurred to mar the occasion in any way. The McCullough orchestra furnished delightful music and the pavilion was a scene of beauty and joy forever. The only sporting events were two foot races, one for girls and one for men. The first was won by Miss Maydew Cunningham of Minneapolis, who was presented a bottle of perfume. The men's race was won by Turner Starks, Jr., who was awarded a base ball. The success of the outing is due to the indefatigable labors of the following officers and committees: N. N. E. CONGRESS AFTERMATH Miss Adina Adams was employed last Monday typing letters to several governors who had shown interest in the Congress, that were sent out by President J. Silas Harris. The letters were worded as follows: "We the members of the Negro National Educational Congress, take this method of expressing to you our appreciation for the interest you have manifested. This congress is composed of honest, earnest men and women who are struggling to better the conditions of the race. In this, as in all other movements having for their aim the betterment of mankind, we have had and expect to have opposition, which we have been able to handle to and to other noble white men and women who have aided us. Our fifty years of national life have been a disappointment to many of our friends, and it is our determination to seek the causes which have led to this disappointment and correct the same."
