Diver Stumbles Upon Wreck at Depth of Sixty Feet. Tacoma, Wash. — The cameron schooner Saddle F. Galler, lost at sea eighteen years ago, has been called back from the port of missing ships. Walter McCary of this city, a submarine diver, "stumbled" upon the vessel in sixty feet of water near Chignik lagoon, Alaska, recently and is preparing to take out of the wreck nearly $50,000 in the bullion with which she is inden. He is on his way ... to Alaska to salvage the cargo of the Galler. McCary was placing a trap trap when he found the wreck. Scraping away the nautical instruments he uncovered the nautical record. Investigation showed the schooner had cleared from San Francisco for the canneries eighteen years ago and founded off the Alaskan coast at a point far from her port resting place. McCary reached an agreement with the owners and consignees under which he will get 50 per cent of the salvage. JOKE ON "ARCHAEOLOGISTS." Boys Bury Skeleton and Profound Discussions Follow. Newton, N. J.-The Sussex County Historical society has acknowledged that it was hoaxed by a band of schoolboys. Learned members of the society held many profound discussions over a skeleton dug up recently by workmen at an excavation near the Barrett homeestead, in Main street. The amateur archaeologists had about decided the skeleton was that of an Indian. Preparations were being made to have it set up in a private museum. The boys who perpetrated the joke, however, whispered their secret to their friends. Soon it was common property that they had found the skeleton in the garret of the Barrett house and buried it so that the labors would dig it up. The skeleton used to be the property of Dr. Thomas Ryerson, now dead. HARVESTER TRUST'S PROFITS $16,500,000 Chicago—Cyrus H. McCormick, president of the International Harvester company, made public here the report of the corporation for the year 1912, which shows a net profit of $16,385.597.16 on a total income of $126,518.272.62. The capital stock is $140,000.00, and the surplus on Dec. 31 was $30,000. In his comments on the general situation last year Mr. McCormick says: "The year 1912 was one of exceptional prosperity for the farming community throughout the world. The production of the principal grains increased almost 20 per cent over the preceding year and yielded a crop value considerably larger than any previous record. This created an increased demand for harvesting machinery, tillage implements and other farm appliances and enabled the company to make a substantial gain in the gross in net earnings, the increase effected in net earnings, the portion to the gain in volume, owing to the reduction in selling prices of the company's principal lines. "The expansion of the foreign trade continues. The sales of harvesting machinery abroad increased 23 per cent, and the sales of other farm implements, engines and tractors increased 14 per cent over 1011. The foreign trade now exceeds 40 per cent of the total business of the company and contributes more than proportionately to the sales of harvesting machinery and twine in 1012 were less than two-thirds of the total business." HYPNOTIST TO PAY $5,000. Boy Gets Verdict For Cruelties Inflicted at Exhibitions. St. Paul.—Because of cruelties he had suffered Oscar Larson, fifteen, of Minneapolis was awarded a judgment for $5,000 against Chris Neseth, alias George Newman, who posed as a hypnotist. The acts of cruelty complained of consisted of tortures inflicted on the boy during a course of hypnotic exhilaration throughout the northwest in the fall of 1915. The man, an amputated, he said, to support three men on his body as he lay rigid with his neck on one chair and his heels on another. In another pins were thrust into his lips and he was sent among spectators to have them pulled out. BEE WRECKS A TROLLEY CAR. Buzing Scares Motorman, Who Jumpe- Thirteen Passengers Hurt Philadelphia. - A big bumblebee so scared A. W. Schater, a motorman of a Wayne avenue car, that he deserted his post and the car ran wild, coming into collision with two wagons and causing a panic among the passengers, thirteen of whom were injured in the wreck. Schater said he first tried to chase the bee away. The more he waved his arms the harder the bee buzzed. Finally the buzzing so got on his nerves that he jumped from the car, forgetting to turn off the power. MEXICAN HATRED OF U. S. GROWING SERIOUS CONDITIONS ARISE Caused by Retired Washington Government to Recognize Huerta as President—Ambassador Wilson's Recall Asked For—Smeltting Company Sending Employees Away. Mexico City—Resentment against the United States and Americans because Washington does not recognize the Huerta government seems to be growing here, although the anti-American movement has not yet assumed a menacing and probably will not. Thus far it has been confined principally to newspaper suggestions that a boycott be declared upon American products, coupled with the use of a word "Yankee" in editorials in as well as manner as the writers can employ it. Scores of shops have posted placards in their windows reading "No American goods sold here." This is not especially significant, because the proprietors of most of the shops where the placards are displayed are either Spanlards or other foreigners, or ordinarily do not vend merchandise made in the United States. Thus far no Mexican, so far as known, has refused to sell goods to Americans or rejected United States money. One big dry goods store placed in its show window a manikin dressed like one Sue Manning bearing two satchels. One is him going away, and the other, "Good Mexican." Another figure, that of a boywoman, was labeled, "I indorse the boy-cott." Nelson O'Shaughnessy, the first secretary of the American embassy, when he saw the figures, looked up the proprietor of the store and suggested that probably some 5,965 American customers might not approve such pleasantry. The proprietor promptly removed the figures. Some talk has been heard among the lower classes of an anti-American © by American Press Association. AMBASSADOR HENRY LANE WILSON. demonstration, but it is doubtful if any attempt at one will be made; besides, the police probably would put an end to it promptly. Among Americans fear trouble unless something is done quickly either by the United States or Mexico to render the diplomatic situation between the two governments less strained. The Mexicans are greatly pleased at the prospect of the United States and Japan becoming embroiled over the California situation. They look upon the action of President Wilson in forbidding any naval or army movement calculated to arouse Japan's suspicions as a confession of weakness and a fear in Washington that Japan might declare war. The exodus of Americans continues. A report reached here that, alarmed at the prospect of a total cessation of traffic due to the activity of the rebels, the American Smelting and Defining Company of Aguascalientes to Vera Cruz by a special train and is trying to charter a steamship to transport them from Vera Cruz to New York. Those Americans here whose opinions are worth while do not hesitate to pronounce the diplomatic situation as between Mexico and the United States impossible. They favor recalling Ambassador Wilson and sending here a commissioner to take up the question of recognition with the government whose communication with Mexican officials would not be hampered by embarrassing personal and official relations in the past. It is not questioned that the continued retaining of Henry Lane Wilson here constitutes a grave impediment to an understanding being reached by the two governments. The sooner Washington appreciates this and acts the sooner will Americans in Mexico see a possible way out of the langle. THE APPEAL. Demand For Meat Shown by the Changes in Export Figures. Washington. — The decrease in the meat supply available for exportation is illustrated sharply by the February export figures. Just compiled by the statistical division of the bureau of foreign and domestic commerce. They show the number of cattle exported in the eight months ended with last month as 12,650 head against 270,219 head in the corresponding months of 1907 and the quantity of fresh beef exported as 4,709,047 pounds against 175,800,949 pounds in the same months. That this shortage in the exportations is due to at least to an actual reduction in the number of cattle in the United States is evidenced by the fact that the total number of cattle on farms, according to figures of the department of agriculture, on Jan. I was last only 56,527,000 against 72,534,000 on Jan. 1, 1907. Still another evidence of the demand in the United States for an increase in its cattle supply is found in the figures of the department of commerce, which show an enormous increase in the importation of cattle, the number imported into the United States in the eight months ended with last month being 222,000 head against 12,513 head in the corresponding months of 1907. The table follows shows for the years 1907 and 1913 the number and value of cattle on farms in the United States, of those imported, of those exported and the quantity and value of fresh beef exported, the figures relating to the eight months ended with February of the years named: CATTLE. 1907. 1312.

This announcement was made by Attorney General McReynolds, who received delegations from Virginia, Maryland in behalf of lawyers of those states now being urged for the vacancy in the Fourth court of the States composed of the states of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Virginia. By this announcement Mr. McReynolds eliminates almost the entire field of aspirants from Maryland and Virginia. The half dozen lawyers from Virginia who are advanced for judicial honors of age are either more than sixty years of age or have large corporation connections. The lone Marylander, C. D. Devecmon, was eliminated because he has had no previous experience on the bench and has had no practice in admiralty law. The Virginia delegation was stunned by the announcement. The men eliminated include Charles V. Meredith of Richmond, who is sixty-two years old; Luen B. Cocke of Roanoke, who is division counsel for the Norfolk and Western railroad; Walter H. Taylor of Norfolk, who is counsel for the late H. Rogers' Virginia railroad; W. Leigh Williams, Norfolk, who is counsel for the Atlantic Coast, Norfolk, and A. W. Patterson and H. Collar, bared on account of the collar. Dr. Minor Lyle, dean of the Law School of the University of Virginia, is the only aspirant now in the field from Virginia who comes within the McReynolds rule. There are half a dozen judgement appointments which the president has to make. Most of them are carried over from the Taft administration and were tied up in the senate filibuster against all the civil appointments made by Mr. Taft after his election. It is taken here that the rule laid down by the attorney general applies to all judiciary appointments that will come up during the coming four years. It will apply equally to the United States supreme court as to the district courts. Just now there is a pressing demand upon the president to appoint a chief justice of the United States court of claims. The work of this tribunal has been retarded since the retirement of Chief Justice Peel and the refusal of the senate to confirm the promotion of Associate Justice Booth for this place. IN BED FOR FIFTY-NINE YEARS Woman Holder of All Hospital Time Records Celebrates Her Birthday.

She holds all hospital time records. Since her typhoid attack Miss Schatz has been unable to move without assistance. She has been an ardent student of scientific subjects. She sheds her bedside and has taken them to unobscured from the window, but her greatest ambition is to see an apothecary. CUBA'S NEWEST PRESIDENT. Menocal Receives Special United States Mission at Inauguration. Havana—At the inauguration here of General Juan Harlo Menocal as president of the Cuban republic the United States was represented by a special mission, who convened the official felicitation of President Menocal to Cuba's new chief executive. The mission was composed of the third assistant secretary of State Dudley Field Maltone, and Brigadier General Enoch H. Crowder, judge advocate general of the army, with Edward Bell of the Latin-American division of the state department, as secretary. The inauguration ceremonies and the festival that followed it were magnificent. The city was decked with flowers, and bands placed in the plaza. GENERAL JUAN MARIO MENOCAL. Following the official oath which formally made Enrique Jose Varona vice president of the Isiand Republic, the oath was administered to General Menocal in the presence of a great crowd of foreign dignitaries, government officials and other folk. General Juno Marie Menocal, the new president of the republic of Cuba, was born in 1866 at Jaguay Grande,芒廷萨 province. He was educated in the United States and was in the Military college of Washington, where he obtained the rank of captain. From there he went to Cornell university, where he graduated as a civil engineer. Upon leaving Cornell he went with his uncle, Aniceto G. Menocal, of the engineering staff which made the embassy the Nicaragua canal, and worked with him. He returned to Cuba as an engineer for a French company which projected the construction of a railroad from Santa Cruz del Sur to Camaguey. While making the preliminary studies at Santa Cruz he joined the revolutionary forces as a private and rose rapidly until he became general of division. His military record was brilliant. He rendered invaluable service to the Americans at the time of the Spanish evacuation and later served with distinction as chief of police of Havana.

Los Angeles—Treed by a great flock of angry sparrows a badly frightened cat was rescued here by officers of the Humane society. Three days before the cat had climbed the tree, presumably in the hope of catching a sparrow. The sparrows caught the cat. Every time tabby tried to leave the birds fought it back with their sharp beaks, and the rescued had to beat off the spiteful sparrows before they could catch the cat. "SIX MONTHS COURTSHIP" Judge's Sentence For Love at First Sight Pair. Chicago—Love at that sight and all that sort of thing is romantic, but sometimes the vision is clouded, according to Judge Newcomer of the municipal court. That is why he sentenced a young couple to six months of courtship. The judge looked benignly down from the bench. Before him were Loretta Brown of Kankakee and John Carr of Chicago, both under age. It had been a case of a glance, a smile and "Let's get married." The judge wanted to know all about it. "Loretta," he said, "would you like to marry Mr. Carr?" "Yes," she murmured. "Hasty marriages," he said, "almost always, result in hasty divorces. I don't like them. So I sentence you to six months' courtship. The proposed new marriage laws advocate such a plan, and I think it a grand idea." The judge then requested both to report to him once a week. Odduate relatives had caused them to be brought to court. APPENDIX ON WRONG SIDE. Also His Heart and Other Organs. Outside of That— Philadelphia—Surgeons at the Jefferson hospital have discovered a man whose vitals are all in the wrong place. According to statements given out, Charles Henry, derelict, applied to the institution for treatment, and the physicians discovered that his appendix is on the left side of his body and his heart and other organs on the right side. Dr. Steele says that the malformations in the man's thoracic cavity are due entirely to congenital abnormalities caused by the fact that he was the child of blood relatives. Henry did not know that he was such a freak until the X rays were put on him. Then he decided that he was an asset to any museum and started for New York for a job. CAME TO GET A NEW BRAIN AND CHARACTER New York- -Elderly, neatly attired and of quiet demeanor, Miss Emily Jane Clarke, a Boston schoolteacher, entered the reception room of the Rockefeller Institute For Medical Research at Sixty-sixth street and the East river and asked to see the physician in charge. Dr. Swift promptly preformed himself, whereupon Miss Clarke said: "I have heard and read so much of the wonderful work and of the remarkable operations that have been achieved at this institute that I have brought my own personal case here." "And what may your affection be?" asked the physician. "Well, in the first place, I want a new character"— "A new"—began the doctor. "And an entirely new brain." supplemented Miss Clarke. "I hope you will see your way to take up the work. I will have a new character and a new brain." Dr. Swift sent to Bellevue hospital and gave Miss Clarke in charge of Dr. Roberts, who came in the ambulance. She was placed in the psychopathic ward for observation. THE CHAMPION MOTHER.

JAPAN'S FAITH IN NATION'S JUSTICE War Talk is Denounced as Ridiculous and Calculated to Embarrass the Two Governments, Which Are Seeking to Reach Peaceful Settlement by Diplomacy—Count Okuma Cheered. Tokyo. In spite of the fact that Governor Johnson has signed the so called "land bill," faith in the American people to see that justice is done the Japanese is the dominating note in the discussion here of the California alien land ownership legislation. War talk is denounced as ridiculous and calculated to embarrass the two governments, which are shuffling for a peaceful settlement by diplomacy. It is conceded, however, that failure on the part of the Americans to respond to the Japanese appeal for a discontinuance of the alleged discrimination would be likely to lead to conegrantment of the two peoples. The Japanese public generally is convinced that the land bill is a racial and not an economic measure and hence a blow to national pride, and it feels that the world must be taught the necessity of equal treatment of the whites and non-whites. The Tokyo newspapers are loud in their praise of President Wilson's zeal in his endeavors to preserve the tradi-tional friendship, and they recognize the difference which confront the president of the United States in the confusing conflict between state and federal rights. The Nichi Nichi is of the opinion that the question as to whether the Washington government can procure equal rights for the Japanese depends upon the strength of Japanese diplomacy, and it urges the government to take a firm attitude. A joint celebration of the Japanese and American peace societies here was attended by 1,000 Japanese. Speoches were made by Count Okuma, former minister of foreign affairs: Baron Yoshiro Sakatani, mayor of Tokyo, and Tsunemiro Miyaka, who was councilor of the Japanese embassy at Washington in 1906. All of the speakers endeavored to clarify the situation, and all decried jingism. Count Okuma was loudly applauded when he compared the attitude of the California legislators with the antiforeign movement in Japan half a century ago, which he looked upon as an abased race prejudice. "We despised foreigners," he said, "because they looked different. We did not consider them human beings. Japan had the falsity of its position and became the very thing western. The same causes derile the California question; but, like the Japanese, the Californiaans will see the folly of their position, and truth and justice will triumph. "At some future day the Californiaans will laugh at their fathers and grandfathers for driving off the Japanese, just as we laugh now at the antiforeign absurdities of the samurai." NO DEGREES FOR PASTRY. Harvard Bans All Pie, Pudding and Cream Puffs. Cambridge, Masa.—The curfew for pie, pudding, cream puffs and charlotte russe has been sounded at Harvard. Recently the Memorial dining hall managers have substituted cereals in various popular forms at the noon and light meals as well as for breakfast. This experiment has proved a great success. A great many of the 900 students eat at "Mem" believe that the new form of dessert is much more healthful than pastry. Icebergs Fast Moving South. Newport, R.

NEW SIEGEL MURDER CLEW. Chinese at Oakland Treasured Clippings About Girl. San Francisco—A key to the mystery of the murder of Elise Siegel, granddaughter of General Franz Siegel, a civil war hero, in the room of a Chinese in New York in June of 1909, is believed to have been found in Oakland. In the rooms of Lee Dor, who was arrested on charges of having found a set of plaster treasury agents found a set of plaster clippings describing the death of Elise Siegel and several photographs of pretty white women. Prior to this discovery the prisoner had been released under $1,000 bond. His whereabouts now are unknown. John W. Smith, a treasury agent, who unearthed the evidence against Lee Dor, said: "Lee Dor tried to convince us that he had no knowledge of English, but it is significant that a Chinese who pretends no knowledge of our language should so treasure the reports of a look place in New York four years ago. The Chinese suspected of strangling Elise Siegel was Leon Ling. His description does not tally with that of Lee Dor. AIDED BY WIFE IN FIGHT. British Mine Owner and Woman Kill Five Mexicans. Agus Callentes, Mexico. — John Walker, a British mine owner, and his wife, fighting shoulder to shoulder, recently killed five men and wounded three of a band of eleven employees at the mine near Villa Garcia, Zacatecas. Mr. and Mrs. Walker arrived here later under escort of troops. The employees attacked Mr. Walker because of his inability to raise money to pay their wages. The men used knives and clubs, and Mrs. Walker had been seriously cut and beaten when the opener took an automatic revolver. Mrs. Walker re-enforced her husband with a rifle. After the battle Mr. and Mrs. Walker escaped and were befriended by a Spanish priest, who hid them until he could secure the aid of the American consular agent here. The latter obtained troops to escort Mr. and Mrs. Walker here. MISCHIEVOUS PAGE CALLS MISS WILSON But Suspicious Phone Operator Intercepts Message. Washington.—After a search of five weeks on the part of secret service men, capitol policemen and attaches of the sergeant-at-arms office to discover the identity of the page of the house who called up Miss Jessie Wilson on the phone on one of the night sessions of the house the search of the guilty person was finally abandoned. During the night sessions on the tariff the pages on the floor of the house having lots of time on their hands, amused themselves by phoning to various residences in all parts of the city. One of the ladds suggested that it would be a good joke to call up "Main 6" and ask for Miss Wilson. This is the White House number, although it was unknown to the boy who used the private line from the capitol to the White House. The operator on duty at the executive mansion realizing that somebody was playing a trick, notified the capitol switchboard, and the message was traced to the house cloakroom. An immediate investigation was ordered. After weeks of work the identity of the page responsible for calling up the White House remains a mystery. The message for Miss Wilson never got any further than the operator at the White House. DOLLAR PATCHES HIS SKULL Coin Hammered Out to Fit Hole In Man's Head. Omaha. Ark. — John Chickmore of this place will always have $1 on his person, but it will never be available as a cash asset, as it lies in the front part of his head over a jagged hole more than two inches long and one inch wide. Chickmore got in a fight, and his skull was crushed in by a stone thrown by Alvin Roberts. Dr. W. A. Butts, who was called, had to have something at once to cover the opening, being removed to grave a condition to be removed to a city hospital and there being no time to order a silver plate. The doctor did the next best thing—he made one. He took a silver dollar and a heavy hammer and beat it out to fit the hole. He sewed up the scalp, and John is now recovering. TO RAISE MILE OF CENTS.

Entered as second class matter June 6, 1883 at the postoffice at St. Paul, Milton, under act of Congress, March 3, 1883. SATURDAY, MAY 31, 1913. They are having quite a time in their vice commission investigation of wages and morality among women in Chicago and it's hard to tell which side is getting the better of the argument. The investigation has brought to light many things heretofore only dreamed of and while the matter will not be finally or satisfactorily settled by the investigation the agitation will doubless do much good. But it is a pretty hard rap at the morals of the Chicago women to declare that the matter of $2 or $3, more or less, on their weekly wages will regulate them. After forty-five years it is now being urged by Congressman Keeley, of Kansas, that the government bring suit to collect $43,362,346 due from the Missouri Pacific railroad for subsidy bonds advanced by the government to aid in the construction of central branch of that road. It is presumed that if no attempt is made to collect it will never be paid. Lots of folks claim, and believe, that there is no such thing as luck. Well, what can you call this: A man from London was visiting Monte Carlo; he was about to start for home, but missed his train. He went back to the Casino and won $25,000, and caught the next train. Now, if that is not what they call "stud horse" luck, what is it? Henry B. Robinson, president of the savings bank in Kenosha, WIs., has announced that he will start a bank account of one dollar for every baby born in that city during the year. He says: "It does not make any difference what the baby is—boy or girl, black or white—it is entitled to a start in life." He is all right. Chicago intends to have some more union depot. The Illinois legislature has passed a bill authorizing the construction of a union station not to exceed a cost of $50,000,000. They ought to do pretty well with that URGE NATIONS TO JOIN PEACE FETE MARKS CENTURY OF PEACE Resolutions Are Unanimously Adopted Inviting Co-operation of Nations In Making Celebration of the Signing of the Treaty of Ghent In 1915 a World Event in Cause of Peace. Lake Mohonk, N. Y.-At the conclusion of the international conference here to arrange for a fitting celebration of the signing of the treaty of Ghent in 1915, at which time one hundred years of peace between English speaking peoples will have been completed, the following manifesto was unanimously adopted by the conferences and is presented to the English speaking world and to those in other nations interested in the cause of universal peace: Representatives of Great Britain, of Newfoundland, of the United States, of the Dominion of Canada, of the commonwealth of Australia and of the municipality of Ghent, having been in conference concerning an appropriate celebration of the centenary of the signing of the treaty of Ghent, which marked the end of the last international war between the British and American peoples, unite in offering to the governments and the peoples of the civilized world an earnest invitation to take part in making this celebration in every way worthy of the hundred years of peace that it commemorates. We invite such co-operation to the end that it may be made clear and unmistakable to public opinion everywhere that the time has come when international rivalries and differences, though numerous and severe, may be settled without the carnage and the horrors of war. Although it be unreasonable to disregard the possibility of conflict arising in the future out of international rivalries, yet we gratefully recognize that the chances of misunderstanding have been largely eliminated by the degree in which modern science has facilitated intercourse and accelerated communication. We are therefore encouraged to hope that the development of letters, science and the arts, of commerce, industry and finance, of mutual knowledge, trust and good feeling on the part of those who owe different allegiances and who speak different tongues may profitably absorb the environment and offer opportunity for the display of the skills and finest traits of mind and of character. Great Britain has been a colonizing nation, and the United States has drawn to the population various and powerful elements from different countries and from different flags. Therefore a century of peace between Great Britain and her dominions beyond the seas on the one hand and the United States on the other hand touches directly both the interests and the imagination of every land to which Great Britain's sons have gone as well as those of every nation from which the day of declaration of the United States has been begun. Survival abrasion will not only mark the close of a century of exceptional significance and importance, but it will call attention to an example and an ideal that we earnestly hope may be followed and pursued in the years to come. What nations have done nations can do. We respectfully request his majesty's secretary of state for foreign affairs and the secretary of state of the United States to transmit this invitation to the governments of the world in order that both by the participation of governments and by the co-operation of good men in every land this celebration may be carried out to mark not merely the close of 100 years of peace between the close of 100 years of peoples, but the opening of what we sincerely trust will be a fresh era of peace and good will between all the nations of the world. TO POSTAL JOB APPLICANTS. Civil Service Instructions Out For Postmaster Examinations. Washington.-The civil service commission has prepared instructions to applicants for the fourth class postmasterships to meet the demand expected to follow President Wilson's order requiring that appointments to office paying $180 a year or more be made by competitive examinations. The instructions as to the examinations are identical with those sent out following President Taff's order of Oct. 15, 1912, except that where the present instructions apply to applicants for all offices paying $180 a year or more, last year's instructions applied to offices paying $200 or more.

The German officers in their report say that, although General Hirschauer, inspector of the French aviation department, and other experts boarded the dirigible, they think the Frenchmen did not observe enough to enable them to reproduce the intricate mechanism of the airship. Some members of the Zeppelin crew say that they heard shots fired at the dirigible, but this is not confirmed by other persons on board. NEW WEAPON FOR ARMY. Automatics of 45 Caliber Will Replace the 38 New Used. Hartford, Conn.—To replace the present 38 caliber pistols used by the United States army the federal government has decided to supply the enlisted men with 45 caliber automatics.

RADIO STATION FOR PANAMA Plans Are Completed For Towers Like Those In Use At Arlington Washington. — Rear Admiral Stanford, chief of the bureau of yards and docks, has just completed plans for the construction of the second set of great naval wireless towers, which will be erected on the canal zone at Camit, practically duplicating the initial plant at Arlington reservation. There will be three 600 foot steel towers. With a 100 kwatt radio set it is believed that this section should be able to communicate either directly or by relay with similar high power stations to be erected by the navy in the Hawaiian islands, Tutula, Samoa, Guam and the Philippines. CABINED WATERPLANE ·MIGHT CROSS OCEAN British Expert Describes Best Type of Air Craft. London.—Harold Short, a pioneer in the use of the British waterplane, when asked his opinion concerning the type of machine likely to make the transatlantic flight, replied: "About twice the size of the present type of waterplane, twin engines each of 200 horsepower, tanks inside the body to carry 480 gallons-of petrol, enough for twelve hours' flying, and 160 gallons of lubricating oil, a cabin with a sleeping bunk, food lockers and a wireless telephone installation. "She would travel thirty-five miles an hour under favorable conditions, and with two stops at depot ships during the voyage to fill up her petrol tanks she would fly from Newfoundland to the west coast of Ireland in thirty hours." The flight, he thinks, would best be made from west to east, so as to take advantage of the prevailing westerly winds. Two days of the weather would be enough for it. The air man would travel at a height of 6,000 feet. If one of the engines failed at that height the waterplane would cover 100 miles before touching water and could then go along the surface to the nearest depot ship. If both engines failed she could call a liner with her wireless installation. WOMEN CONTROL TYRO. Elect the Mayor and a Majority of the Council In the Kansas Town.

MESSAGE HIDDEN 15 YEARS AGO IS FOUND Son When Small Boy Hid It to Save Mother's Feelings. Menosha, Wis.—Young Stephen Brown, whose family moved away from Wisconsin fifteen years ago, recently came back to his old home in Neenah on a visit. He requested the young man with whom he was staying to take a walk with him to the lake shore. The friend thought the road was rather muddy, but went without comment. When the men arrived at a certain spot Brown turned over a large stone, looked eager under it and groomed in a low robe. "By George, here it is!" He drew out a mold, wet, discolored envelope, evidently containing a telegram. The paper within bore this message, most of which was obliterated, but a few words could be deciphered here and there: "Wallace Brown died last night at midnight." It was sent from Detroit and bore a date fifteen years old. The young man's eyes filled with tears as he told his friend the story of the telegram. Fifteen years before Brown's father had died suddenly while in Detroit on business. The telegram announcing his death came while Mrs. Brown was away from the house, and the boy, a little child, opened and read it. With some childish idea of saying his mother from the distress he knew the message rast as he could and hid the telegram under a stone and did not tell of its arrival. He remembered that his mother faltened when she heard the news later and died a few months afterward, leaving him and his mother all about the telegram until his first visit to his old home recalled it to mind, and the tears came often as he recounted forgotten memories resurrected at the sight of that milded paper. **Drops Law to Be a Farmer.** Kansas City—Benjamin F. White, for years a practicing lawyer in Kansas City has quit the law for the farm. Recently he traded his home for a farm in Macy, Mo., and is writing back to his friends glowing accounts of the venture. It was the first time he was being married, and he was naturally a little nervous and upset, but he managed to say "Yes" all right and to keep time to Mendelssohn, sailing down the aisle, and to sign his name in the register without making more than a dozen blots. He thought then that it was finished, but when they got to the church door they found it was raining. "Confound it!" he cried, putting up his umbrella. "Another nuisance now!" And then, though he cannot guess why, the people around all laughed, and his mother-in-law bridled, and his wife refused to speak—London Answers. LET DOUGALL HAM! THE COLD CRISPAIR! HOLY SMOKE!

Noted Institution in Danger of Losing Vast Sum—A Battle for Higher Education of Afro-American People Called to Help. Fisk University, the most noted Afro-American institution for higher education, is facing a serious crisis in its attempt to raise an endowment fund. The institution was offered $60,000 more than two years ago by the General Education Board on condition that it raise $240,000 in addition, for liquidation of accumulated indebtedness of about $50,000, for repairing and refitting buildings, for the installation of a heating and lighting plant, and for endowment. An amount of $300,000 was to be raised, two-thirds of which was to go for endowment. The institution will not all be entirely through the support, from year to year, of white friends in the North. About two hundred of these white friends have contributed toward the present endowment effort, but the total amount given leaves $104,000 yet to be raised. The time limit of the initial offer of the General Education Board on the endowment is $10,000, and authorities have no assurance that this time limit will be extended. The alumni are carrying on a loyal rally; to raise $25,000 as their share in the fund, but there will still remain nearly $100,000 which must be secured from other friends. The white friends utenured generously to this fund and now of the Afro-Americans have contributed asking what the Afro-Americans are asking to them less of the University are making a tribute-wide appeal to the Afro-Americans to rally to the rescue of this institution which for forty-seven years has offered all that is highest and best in education and culture to the Afro-Americans of the land. They want 100,000 Afro-Americans to them now and between now and June 1st. Checks and money orders should be made payable to Fisk University and may be sent to the editorial office of this paper or directly to Fisk University at Nashville, Tenn. All contributions sent to the office of THE.APPEAL will be acknowledged in its columns. Shall we rally to the call of an institution which from its foundation has aimed to provide the path to all the learning and culture which the best institutions of the land afford? Knowles Building.
