OPEN OTHER GATES WIDER. Senator Dillingham Proposes to Restrict Every Nationality According to Number Now In This Country—Ne Action on Bill This Session. Washington.—Senator Dillingham of Vermont has introduced a bill by which he hopes to reduce immigration from southern and eastern Europe and Asia in a more effective way than was provided in the Dillingham-Burnett bill, which President Taft vetoed in the closing days of the last session. Mr. Dillingham, who was chairman of the committee on immigration last session and is now its ranking Republican member, has abandoned the literacy test to which Mr. Taft objected and provisioned a provision that immigration from a country in one year should be limited to 10 per cent of the number of natives of that country already domiciled in the United States. This provision would apply to all the world except the western hemisphere. The census returns show that countries of northern Europe, whose citizens are considered particularly desirable as immigrants, have already such heavy representation in the United States that the 10 per cent limit would largely increase the yearly inflow from most of those countries. On the other hand, Mr. Dillingham quotes figures to show that the bill would reduce the number of Aero-Hungarians by almost one-third. Portuguese ones ian-three. Portuguese one-seventh. European Turks one-half and Asiatic Turks three-eighths. While Mr. Dillingham admits that his bill is drafted for the express pur- A. H. SENATOR DILLINGHAM. pose of reducing undesirable immigration, he has sought to provide for the liberal operation of its provisions. Transient visitors are not counted in fixing the limit, nor are those aliens who return to this country after visiting their homes, nor aliens coming even for the first time if their near relatives are already in America. The professional and business classes are altogether exempt from the provisions of the bill, and the secretary of labor is authorized to admit aliens in excess of the per cent limit for business reasons. "The average annual immigration from Austria-Hungary during the last ten years," said Mr. Dillingham, "has been approximately 20,000, but the bill immigration from that country would be limited to 167,000 annually, at least until the census of 1920 afforded a new basis for computation. Immigration from Italy has averaged 207,000 annually, but future immigration from that country would be limited to about 134,500, while Greece would be limited to 10,000 as compared with an average of about 20,000 in recent years. Apparently immigration from Turkey would be cut down to about 10,000, the principal sources of southern and eastern European immigration Russia alone would seem to be little affected, as under the proposed law 173,500 aliens could be admitted from that country annually as compared with an average annual immigration of 172,500 during the past ten years. "On the other hand, Germany has furnished an average of 35,000 immigrants in recent years and under the proposed law could send 250,000. The United Kingdom could send about 283,000, but has sent an average of 250,000 immigrants and the cases of France, Belgium, Switzerland, the Netherlands and the Scandinavian countries the margin is not so large, but it is not believed that the law would in any way affect immigration from such countries." It is not expected that Mr. Dillingham's bill will receive consideration at the present session, but he hopes for nonpartisan support for it next winter. The government's representatives who favor it, will work quietly on the interests of the measure. CANNOT SLEEP ON BED. Twenty Years In Cell Unifits Paroled Convict For Real Bed Topeka, Kan.-Morgan Wright, sent to prison in 1838 from Cowley county for complicity in the murder of a constable and released on parole by Governor Hodges, found that a free bed was so soft he was unable to sleep his first night out of prison. Wright came to Topeka to think the governor. He is on his way to see his father in Shawney, Okin, and then will go to California to begin life anew. "I didn't sleep well last night," said Wright to the governor. "It was the real bed I have slept in for nearly twenty years. I left the prison yesterday I didn't know which way to turn or what to do. It was all so new and strange to me. Every one seemed so busy and in such a hurry that I can't quite understand it. Even the school children rushed along the street. But I think if the world is such a busy place that there must be some place for me, and I am going to try to bad it." STREET STREWN WITH BILLS. Thought to Be Robber's Plunder, by Government Officials. Levenworth, Kan.-Three postoffice inspectors have begun an investigation of the finding of hundreds of dollars in gold certificates believed to be a portion of $50,000 stolen by Charles Savage from a mail truck in the Union station in Kansas City five years ago. Developments show that persons have been finding the certificates, mostly of the $20 denomination, for a month and have kept the matter secret. It is estimated that at least $1,000 has been picked up in gutters, vacant lots and back yards. All the money was discovered within a radius of eight blocks of the home of a relative of Charles Savage at whose house he stopped before his arrest. 'One theory of the investigators is that the money was concealed in a tree and dislodged by recent high winds. UNEXPLORED REGION MAY BE A BONANZA Edmonton, Alberta. — George Gardiner of Ottawa is in Edmonton outfitting for a trek over the trail of romance to the Upper Hayes river district to prospect a gold claim located by a man he believes to have been his uncle on the bank of the Peace river in 1898, during the rush to the Yukon, when this city was made the starting point of the overland trail to the Klondike. The story told here by Gardiner is that during the Klondike rush three prospectors went into the Hayes river country, which, except for a small part along the river near Nevilson, is unexplored. One of the party was found on the river bank a year afterward. The man was ennacled and lived only a few hours, but in his last few minutes of life told of a fight with Indians, who killed his two companions. He had in his possession samples of the richest gold. It could have been proclaimed in other places, so it may be that unexplored territory is rich in the yellow metal. Though the hinterland has been explored to points within the arctic circle, the Upper Hayes river country still remains a vast unknown stretch. Remarking upon the fact, an old timer in the north country said he had never known of a white man getting far into that part of the country. From Edmonton to Peace river crossing by way of Athabasca is 400 miles, and outside of about a fifty mile stretch beyond Peace river crossing and the Upper Hayes still lies a great unexplored land of rolling and, so far as is known, open country. It is the Dog Ribs tribe of Indiana. The river through to the mountains on the British Columbia side, and it is supposed that a large number of "bad Indians" have settled in there. HORSE LEADS TO CROOKS' DEN Police Follow Unguarded Animal to Resort of Thieves. Spokane. Wash.—After a horse had led detectives to a house occupied by two men already under bond because of larceny charges warrants were issued charging the two men with attempts to rob. The horse had been left behind in a lumber yard when Detective Benway shot at the men and in return was shot through the left leg. The horse, attached to the wagon, was turned loose and, followed by the two detectives, went to a house in the suburbs that the police alleged was occupied by the men named in the warrants. Ram Grows Oat Crop. Gallon. O.—In addition to a fine coat of wool, a ram owned by David Lynch, a farmer, has a covering of flourishing oats. The ram wallowed around in a straw stack and got oats in his wool. Then it was rained on. Next the sun shone brightly. This continued several days, with the result that the oats sprouted. Lynch calculates that in case of drought he can save this crop of oats since if the rain won't come to the crop he can move the crop to the rain. THE APPEAL. NEW UPRISING IN CHINESE REPUBLIC Yuan Shih Kai Aware of Possible Outcome and Moves Traoes to Strategic Points—Mandates Issued With Menace Couched In Classical Tones. Peking—President Yuan Shih Kai has been driven almost into a corner by a concatenation of circumstances that has given to his opponents what they denounce. His suspicions that he would at some period or other endeavor to dominate in the councils of the nation if not to become dictator or emperor. The murder of Sung Chiao Jen at Shanghai and the signing of the quintuple loan without the authorization of parliament have been seized upon to revile the president and declare him to occupy the high post which many believe he alone can properly do. To such a white heat has public opinion got that another revolution is free. ly talked of, and every effort possible has been made to prevent the quintuple loan from being consummated. In Shanghai the severest censure is being passed upon the president and the cabinet, and so reckless is the language being used that the municipal authorities in that port recently were compiled to take notice of it and issue an order threatening to arrest and try the publisher, reporter or printer guilty of unrestrained expression of opinion. Yuan Shih Kai regarded the outburst with apparent indifference for some time, but of late he has been moving troops to strategic points and in other ways has indicated that he is alive to the probabilities if he does not show his hand and indicate his intentions. The opposition is coming almost solely from the Kuo Mintang, and, while it should cause for complaint that republican principles are not being carried out as they should be, they have in a sense spoiled their case by the unrestrained abilitions of their publicists in Shanghai. Proceeding upon publication lines, the Kuo Mintang may have compelled a hearing of their claims, but the attitude adopted by the newspaper they publish in English in Shanghai has alienated our best sympathy and it differs from it differently to carry on the campaign they inaugurated. This newspaper has proved fatal to the party. Other newspapers published in Chinese have followed suit, and the result has been the stirring of the people to such an extent that a second revolution is believed to be on the taps. At all events the president is preparing for one, and, in addition to moving troops, he has issued mandates which are intended to indicate what his intentions are. On May 2 he issued two the country has just described how revolution, how "many more follow" of the righteous cause" took advantage of the name of revolution "to exert and injure law abiding people" and how "the constitutional spirit of the country has not yet soundly recovered." He recalls how he has pardoned offenders who have been guilty of conspiracy, hoping they would repent of their guilty conduct, and describes the situation as "dangerous to the highest degree, the financial strength of the nation being dried up and the people having practically very little to make their lives worth living." In the second mandate morality is described as the foundation of republic, and from that and law the limit, and from that and law on to refer to the murder of Sung Jin and the signing of the loan. The former he states offers no excuse to suspect the premier, and, as for the letter, it was competent for the governor to sign the loan agreement, the late national council having passed it. CRAZY WOODPECKERS, THESE. Failing to Find Acorns, They Gather Pebbles For Food. San Francisco.—The woodpeckers of Sonoma county are suffering from a mild sort of insanity, according to an erudite document issued by the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology of the University of California. The document says: "The reason why California woodpeckers in the vicinity of Sonoma mountain should have stored pebbles instead of the customary acorn is a mystery. "We know that instinct works as automatically as an alarm clock. In the failure of an acorn crop it would seem possible that the woodpecker might instinctively have stored some other available kind of food, but tp have chosen stones instead of some sort of food carries the anlogy too far. "It seems as though any bird with the intelligence of the California woodpecker which would make the same mistake ought to be classed as insane." PASTORS ADOPT EUGENICS. Won't Perform Marriages For the Physically Unfit. Lynn, Mass.-The Protestant clergymen here (Methodist, Episcopal, Congregationalists and Baptists) have resolved individually to take a stand for the physical fitness of applicants for the job; they are to meet to concentrate their energies in behalf of the protection of society. The Rev. C. Thurston Chase of the Central Congregational church, the pioneer in the movement, said: "I have performed my last marriage ceremony in which it will not be necessary for the couple to furnish certificates vouching for their physical fitness maintain that a minister should refuse to perform the marriage ceremony when he thinks it should not be performed." WASP STING MAKES POOR CRIPPLE WALK St. Louis—Charles Wightman, deputy county clerk at Clarton, told how he had just been able to walk without crutches for the first time in thirty-eight of the forty-two years of his life. He fell when he was four years old and injured both legs permanently. He said that a neighbor had told him a snake story just before he went to a wall of a black snake ever so many feet long and an incredible number of inches thick, which the neighbor had said he killed. Charles woke up in the morning with the story still in mind. He thought how comfortable it was to live in a country where one could sleep in peace instead of in one of those countries where, he had heard, snakes sometimes creep in and share one's bed. Reveling in 'the thought, he thrust his right leg deeper under the covers. Then something that stung like a hot needle pierced his ankle. "It sprout out of bed and ran and shouted weave feet across the room," he said. "It was the first time I had taken so many steps unassisted since I was a baby." "And was it really a snake? he was asked. "No. It was a wasp." And he showed the ankle where the sting had swollen it. PRAISES GRAPE JUICE HOST. Daniels Holds Bryan Up as Pattern Approves Roosevelt's Suit. Washington. - Praise of Secretary Bryan for "the courage of his convictions" in refusing to serve wine at a dinner he gave recently to the diplomatic corps was given by Secretary Daniels in addressing a Sunday school rally for prohibition in the District of Columbia. He advised all young men to follow Secretary Bryan's course and in to its abstinence. Secretary Daniels also wrote Theorem Roosevelt for prosecuting for libel an editor accused of circulating stories relative to drinking on the part of the former president. CORNELL BOYS IN KITCHEN. Nine Now Going Through the Domestic Science Course. Ithaca, N. Y. —Male students have entered the domestic science course this year for the first time in the Corell State College of Agriculture. Miss Brownell, the instructor, is authority for the statement that nine have registered and spend the usual hours in the "kitchen," kneading dough and doing other work with the women. They are becoming most proficient, according to Miss Brownell. Among the men cooks are Watson of the varsity baseball team and C. L. Whitney of Rochester, a member of the glee club. Woman to Manage Her Own Mina. Deadwood, S. D. —Backed by capital money to develop on a good sized scale.

She will assume the active management of the property. Defective Page WOULD AVOID ALL LABOR DISPUTES "Capital and Labor Are Partners, and Each Should Have Voice In Determining the Terms," He Says "Doesn't Favor Strikes. Washington—William Bauchop Wilson, secretary of labor, is a strong, sturdy man, with blond hair, fair face, fighting gray blue eyes and a Scotch accent. He was born at Blantyre, Scotland, April 2, 1902, and came to this country nine years later. Settling with his parents in Tioga county, at Arnot, Pa., he became a mine worker at the age of ten. The following year, just after he had passed his eleventh year, he was made a half member of the Mine Workers' union. He obtained his early education from a small village school and in rough and tumble debates in union meetings. He was elected to the Sixthtie. Slxy-first and Sixthtie congresses. March 4 he was appointed secretary of the new department of labor. This brief, is the story of the man who is the first to hold a particular cabinet office. "What this department hopes to do primarily," said Secretary Wilson, "is to try to bring about such conditions that 'uplift' work in industrial centers will not be needed. We are proceeding on the assumption that capital and labor are partners, capital furnishing the material ready for use and labor vitalizing force. Capital and labor vitalizing force in determining the terms of the project. Secretary Wilson thinks that a strike is like a war between nations—to be resorted to when all other efforts have failed. "I would not favor a strike if anything else was left for me to do," he said. "In strikes, as in war, there are destruction and ruin. but there are times when they cannot be avoided. I look upon the department of labor as a means of helping to bring near year by year the goal of social justice. Every man is entitled to the full social equivalent of what he produces. The problem is to arrive at that condition. Capital and labor are partners. "Capital without labor is ineffective, labor without capital is idle. Capital is animate; labor gives life. The one can produce nothing without the employment of the other. To be effective capital and labor must serve each other. Their interests diverge when they come to divide what they have two these two elements should sit down together and by which the division of profits will be fair, with due regard for the rights of each." It has been feared by advocates of the "open shop" that Secretary Wilson would lean a little closer to organized labor than he should do in this country of all sorts of labor. But he denies that he is to be a union labor officer of the government. He believes that laboring people should organize and that a union labor man as a rule, is more a nonunion worker. "With the government's orders," said Mr Wilson "there is no longer that personal relation between employer and employed that former existed. The employer is compelled to deal with larger numbers. The employee as an individual cannot make as satisfactory a contract with the employer as he can when he unites with his fellow workers and fellow men. That is what makes a labor movement necessary." The department of labor was instituted to obtain by the rule of reason that is, by striking a business that the employer can compete with rivals and also pay satisfactory wages—a fair and amenable adjustment of all trade disputes. This would be a rule of reason based upon facts. "the purposes for which the department of labor was established will have been accomplished if we can work with labor and labor together upon a long hand." MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

Missouri Life Prisoner Said to Have Used an Ax. Leavenworth, Kan.-Twenty-five murders committed with an ax within the last three years in Missouri, Kansas, Colorado, Iowa and Illinois are ascribed to Henry Lee Moore, now serving a life term in the Missouri pentagonal, according to a theory formed by M. W. McClaughry, special agent of the department of justice, after an exhaustive study of the so-called ax murders. Mr. McClaughry is a son of Warden McClaughry of the federal pentagonal here and has charge of the bureau of criminal identification at the pentagonal. Moore went to the pentagonal at Jefferson City after being guilty of the murder of his mother and grandmother, Mrs. Mary Wilson and Mrs. McClaughry, Columbus, Mo. in December last year, and said he had made a study of famous murders, including the Criften case in England. AN UNUSUAL MORTGAGE Farmer Puts Up Chickens, Hogs and Revolver as Security. Washington, Ga.—There was placed on record in the office of the clerk of Wilkes county what is considered the most unusual mortgage ever recorded in this or any other county. The security named in the recorded instrument consists of the following valuable property—to wit: "Nine chicken hens, two sow hogs and a 32 caliber pistol." The amount of the debt thus secured is $23, and it is provided that if the obligation is not met at maturity the property mentioned therein shall be sold at public outcry. All home-stead exemption rights are waived by the maker of the mortgage. This question is being asked. "Does this mortgage increase the increasing value of the 'hog and hominy' propaganda, or is it but another indication of the extreme stringency in the land about which so much has been said and written—which?" Bangor, Me.-A Maine shirff might find a barrel of beer or even a jug of whisky, but he can't find a beer lozenges or a cocktail tablet, and over that glad fact the thirsty of this state are rejoicing now. For the tabular booze drummer has come to Maine and is doing a rushing business in condensed drinks of all kinds, from plain whisky to cocktails and from beer to gin fizzes. The drummer carries a considerable stock of the tablets with him for immediate demands, arranges for further and unlimited supplies, and many bars in Bangor, Lewiston and Winston are selling tabular drinks, while a great many men who just must have their whisky or beer when they want it have obtained their own supplies and make their liquor at home while they wait, and the wait is not long. Nobody here knows anything about the constituent elements of the tablets, but nobody cares so long as they produce something that looks and tastes like liquor. The tablets come in little paper boxes or glass bottles of a dozen each, and many vary. A small phial of one kind of powder takes 13 cents, dissolved in a gallon of other ingredients costing 50 cents, makes a gallon of what passes for whisky—total cost, 63 cents. It is not whisky that would appeal to a connoisseur, for it burns and bites all the way down, but is as near to whisky as a good many people are able to get in some parts of Maine, and it "goes." WHISTLING CAT HAS HARELIP Animal Never Has Mewed, but is Musical Prodigy. Springfield, Mass.-Stanislaus Czyznyk of Prospect avenue, West Springfield, is the owner of a cat with a harelip, which whistles with the facility of a schoolboy, but cannot mew or, at least, never has mewed. Czyznyk is inclined to believe that no animal its normal state of mind would whistle, but is loath to do away with the cat, which, he says, attracts more attention than any other member of the family and is regarded as a musical prodigy. Neighbors have suggested that the cat would prove a treasure to a maker of catgut violin strings. Hen Lays Tiniest of Eggs.

Vice President's Ballot May Be Needed to Pass Measure - Farmers' Unions Try to Draw Senators From Caucus Pledges - Senator Burton Sees Business Dislocation. Washington.—As soon as the Underwater tariff bill reaches the senate it is planned to bring it forward for consideration without delay. Democratic leaders are sanguine that they will be able to put the measure through the senate in practically the same shape as it comes from the house, and this in spite of the opposition of Democratic senators from sugar growing and wool growing states, who object to the provisions taking the protective duties from these products. There are ten Democrats and seven Republicans on the senate finance committee, which will handle the Underwater bill in the interim between its VICE PRESIDENT MARSHALL. passage by the house and its consideration by the senate. Joined by two Democrats the seven Republicans on the finance committee would be able to amend the house bill with respect to sugar and wool, and there is a confident feeling among those interested in having the house rates on these products changed that the two Democratic votes will be forthcoming, with a possibility of three Democrats joining the Republicans in wading to prevent sugar from going on the free list at the end of the three year period provided for in the Underwood bill. But whatever the action of the committee on finance, the majority leaders profess a hopeful feeling that they will overcome the desertion of the wool and sugar senators when the bill is taken up in the senate itself. Putting the bill against every contingency they can conceive, the senate leaders figure that the vote on the final passage of the tariff measure will be a tie, and with Vice President Marshall there to cast the deciding vote for the bill they are confident of victory. But they expect to win by a wider margin. They feel sure that there will be at least two votes to spare in the majority in favor of the measure. Some of the district farmers' unions interested in cotton and wool growing are trying to prevent the transfer of their products to the free list or a reduction in the present tariff rates on those products by persuading Democratic senators to remain out of party offices called to consider the terms of the Underwood bill. These organizations are proceeding on the theory that Democratic senators who remain away from the party will not be free to act as they please when the bill comes up for consideration in the senate. Concerted action along this line was agreed upon at a conference of the Farmers' union from southern states, held in New Orleans not long ago. Senator Theodore E. Burton of Ohio (Rep.) has given out a prepared interview, in which he expresses surprise that greater interest has not been aroused over the pending tariff bill, which he asserted, would create changed conditions vitally affecting the welfare of the country. Senator Burton admitted that material reductions in the present duties on many articles of the country's good, but he contended that the changes now proposed "are too drastic to be based upon any well considered or well defined principles. For one thing, the changes were too sweeping," he said, and that "notwithstanding a contrary impression prevalent in the country, the tariff act of 1909 (the Payne-Aldrich law) provided for lower duties than those therefore in force." This was proved, he said, by a computation of the duties actually levied during the operation of the act. The duties collected in the last fiscal year, said Senator Burton, showed a decrease of more than 9 per cent on duties collected in the last fiscal year on durable and nondurable articles combined, as compared with the experience in the last fiscal year that the Dingley tariff was in operation.

SATURDAY, JUNE 14, 1913. Senator Norris of Nebraska who attacked the "lap dog habit" and consequently brought upon himself the condemnation of the women who are guilty of indulging in it has been seconded by Dr. Harvey W. Wiley the noted pure food expert who says they ought to change their lap dogs for babies, and if they have none of their own to adopt them. He says there are thousands of homeless babies and thousands of babyshied wives each needing the other, and that they would fill a woman's lap and heart much better than any dog, no matter what his pedigree or accomplishments, to all of which we say, amen. The fools are not all dead yet, but one of them died on the 13th inst. near Tucson, Ariz. It was an unlucky day for him. Alejandro Ramirez, a miner, was amusing himself by trying to step on the fingers of a fellow miner who was preceding him going down on a ladder in the shaft of the Twin mine. Ramirez lost his footing and fell 300 feet to his death. Some folks trifle with death once too often. The National Press Club at Washington, D. C., had a very interesting spelling bee between fifteen statesmen and fifteen newspaper men the other day which was won by Representative Frank B. Willis of Ohio. The newspaper men were not in it with the statesmen very much to their chagrin. The Supreme Court of the United States has decided the great Minnesota rate case in the favor of the state. It will prove to be very far reaching in more ways than one and if it does not reach out to the great detriment of Afro-Americans, we miss our guess. Watch out for it. 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 amount. SUBMARINE TO CROSS OCEAN British Craft Will Carry Eight Torpedo Tubes. London - Naval developments of a remarkable nature are taking place under a cloak of the next twelve months," says the Daily Express, "some astonishing details will become known regarding changes in warship types, but the importance of noteworthy than the development of the torpedo can be "An entirely new type of under water craft of considerable offensive power and capacity of crossing the Atlantic at a high rate of speed is being built for the British navy. These craft will carry guns, but in addition they will be able to fire eight torpedoes. "In the meantime there are plans under the admiralty for a floatie of about six hundred of forty knots and carrying several quick firing guns, specially mounted for use against air craft." BARS DONKEY FROM PARADE Inaugural Committee Also Excludes Hounds From Placement. Washington.—The Wilson inaugural committee adopted a resolution excluding donkeys from the inaugural parade. This action was taken after information had come to the committee that a Democratic club of Columbus, O., was planning to have a donkey in the parade. It was also decided to exclude a pack of Virginia foxhounds which some Virginia hunters and cross country riders had resolved to bring in the pageant. The inaugural committee takes the view that an inaugural ceremony should be conducted in a dignified way and that donkeys and dogs have no place in it. COCOS ISLAND STILL KEEPS ITS TREASURE Panama.—The treasure hunting expedition led by Miss Genevieve Davis, an Englishwoman, which had been looking for buried gold on Cocos island for many months, got back here. A good time was had by all. No treasure was recovered. Benito Boulto was a regular pirate, who was the captain of the nineteenth century settled down to managing the board of the king of Spain" coast of Mexico. When he got any money together he burted it on Cocos island, after the manner of pirates, and made a map with skull and crossbones marking the spot where the treasure was hid. His heirs have made a substantial living selling these maps to those whom romance and the works of R. L. Stevenson have touched. Miss Davis' expedition started out from Plymouth with one of the maps he was armed with a six pounder to fight the Cocos island, which lies 550 miles remote, Panama, on Sept. 10 last. The only woman besides Miss Davis aboard the ship was her friend, Mrs. Barry Till. At the same time Miss Davis organized her expedition one of the representatives of the Benito Bonito Buried Treasure company was on the road in the south of France and sold a map to Mme. Maitilda Durlad of Marseilles, who forthwith announced that she was going to get up an expedition of her own. Her map, she said, was better than Miss Davis' because in addition to the skull and crossbones it told just how many paces you took from the palm tree on Dead Man's hill to get to the cave where the treasure was buried. When Miss Davis' expedition was on high seas who should start out after the treasure but Thomas McEwen of Victory's. His map had a little picture of Benito's vessel with all sails set skimming around the Cocos island burbor. No mention has come over the cables as yet of the fate of the Durand and McEwen expeditions. Three new hotels have been opened on the Cocos island main street, however. PARODY ON TOMB OF JONES. Former Naval Officer Writes Poetry, Doubt About Honored Bones. Washington.-Park Benjamin, a patient attorney of New York city and a former naval officer, has contributed to the navy department a parody of the verse on Shakespeare's tomb, which he suggests might be placed on the crypt at Annapolis, Md., in which the bones of John Paul Jones were recently placed, following their discovery in Paris by General Horace Porter. The proposed epitaph is as follows: Good friend, for Porter's sake, forbear To doubt the dust enclosed here. "A Screw Loose." Pueblo, Colo.-Charles Stepp, a county employee, and has some "screws loose" -In the literal sense of the word. Last summer Stepp fractured both bones in his right ankle. The nature of the break made it impossible to set the bones in the ordinary way. Two steel plates were inserted and screwed together. Stepp resumed his work. A few days ago he found that something was wrong. It was discovered that the screws had become loosened. Bears Twenty-four Pounds of Twins. Alpena, Mich.-With the birth of twin sons to Mr. and Mrs. John Laudouse the record for large children was broken in Alpena. Each child was packed in pounds. The parents are of average size. Mrs. Doudise is twenty-eight years old and is the mother of five other children. Ethel-Was Jack put out when you told him he couldn't have a kiss? Kitty-Oh, no! He took it as a matter of course.-Boston Transcript AN AMERICAN BLUFF WINS Georgia Man's Adventure With a French Duelist. Abner Church after serving an apprenticeship at selling a patent clothes wringer to the farmers of New England was selected to open one of a number of agencies abroad for the sale of the same article. France was the territory assigned him, with Paris for his room. He had no sooner opened his salesroom than he was called upon by the representative of a Paris morning paper for an ad. Abner told him that he was not yet ready. The solicitor, taking his reply for a refusal, intimated that if the paper didn't get the ad, it would be to the disadvantage of the enterprise. Abner replied that he came from a land where in journalism the advertising and the newspaper's opinions were, kept separate in other words, where newspaper blackmail was unknown. The journal was welcome to "fire away." The next morning an article appeared in the home columns of the paper in question stating that all clothes wringers tore the articles wring in them, and the Eureka sold by Aben Church simply reduced them to ribbons. Other such notices appeared at intervals and were copied by other papers. Aben made up his mind that he would stop the shaker on his machine or stop the shaker on his desk. He called at the office of the journal that was blackmilling him and protested. He was listened to politely by the editor of the home department and when he had finished was referred to M. Jules Chicolet, another editor, who he was assured would take up the case. Abner found M. Chicolet sitting in a study furnished a la Louis XVI. reading a novel and smoking a cigarette. Abner stated his case, to which the goddemon listened attentively and at the same time "Do I understand, monsieur, that you accuse our journal of blackmailing you?" "That what it looks like." "Then as a representative of the paper I have the honor to refer you to a gentleman who will call upon you this afternoon." Abner said that all he wanted was to be let alone, but while he was talking M. Chicolet passed out of a rear door and left him standing alone. The man made the agent went back to his stone there to walk while there a genteely dressed Frenchman entered and said he came to arrange an affair between M. Church and M. Chicolet. "I have no quarrel with M. Chicolet," said Abner. "Who the dickens is M. Chicolet anyway?" "Pardon! Monsieur, being an American, does not understand. M. Chicolet is the fighting editor of the paper." "Writes up duels, you mean." "No, monsieur. M. Chicolet writes nothing, but it to give satisfaction to those who think they been insulted by the journal and to defend its honor. I understand you have accused it of blackmailing you. You must retract or fight." "You tell the fighting editor that my grandfather lost an arm on the southern side at Gettysburg, and we Churches would 'rather die than lay down. Tell him I will fight him with rifles at 500 yards." The visitor protested that such weapons would be used in Pards, to which Abner replied that in America no one fought with anything else, and he would fight with the weapon he could handle and none other. When the fighting editor received the news that he must stand up against an American rifle it occurred to him that for that occasion at least he would earn his salary. He was a perfect swordman and a dead shot with a pistol at short range, but had never fought with rifles. Abner, who had all the so-called trickery of the Yankee as well as the German, had sent him word that he proposed a will, since he proposed to straight at his heart and he had never missed, anything with a rifle. Just after daylight one morning the fighting editor drove up to a secluded spot in the Bois de Boulogne, aligned with his attendants and waited for his antagonist. Presently an automobile appeared. On the roof was something of a black hue and oblong shape the nature of which could not in the dim light be detected. Abner aligned, and the porter of his store removed the article from the roof and carried it on to the field. M. Chicolet went up to it for a look and saw a coffin, on the lid of which was a silver plate bearing the name "Jules Chicolet. Died"—that very day. M. Chicoteau shuddered. This grotesque American way of fighting threw him off his balance. Abner stood near the coffin, leaning on a long rife and looking at the man he intended should occupy it with a strange, diabolical stare. One of the attendants, seeing that the fighting editor was losing his nerve, asked if there was no hope of an arrangement. Abner replied that the journal must let him alone. A conference was held between the seconds, and it was agreed that Abner should withdraw his charge of blackmilling and the paper would publish an item in its home department especially commending the Eureka wringing machine. Then the party drove to a cafe, where they breakfasted together, while the coffin was carried on the automobile to the undertaker's shop from which it had been borrowed. Charlottenburg, the fashionable western suburb of Berlin, is known as the "widows" town. At the last census no fewer than 14,543 widows were registered as residing within its boundaries. This is very nearly half of the total surplus or women over men that is to be found in the town—29,240. In no other town in Germany can such a proportionate surplus of the female sex be found. The number of widowers is extraordinarily small in proportion, being only 2,358—London Telegraph. ST. PAUL, MINN.

I will never bring disgrace upon my race by any unworthy deed or dishonorable act. I will live a clean, decent, manly life; and will ever respect and defend the virtue and honor of womanhood: I will uphold and the just laws of my country and all mankind in which I live and will encourage others to do likewise: I will not allow prejudice, injustice, insult or outrage to cower my spirit or humilitate my soul; but will ever preserve the inner freedom of heart and conscience: I will not allow my wife to be overcome of evil; but will strive to overcome one another with good; I will endeavor to develop and exert the best powers within me for my own personal improvement; and will strive unceasingly to quicken the sense of racial duty and responsibility: I will in all these cases lift my race so that to everyone of blood; it shall become a bond of ennoblement, and not a byword of reproach. FISK UNIVERSITY FACES CRISIS 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, before two years ago by the General Education Board, on 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 new classrooms, for the endowment. An amount of $300,000 was to be raised, two-thirds of which was to go for endowment. The Institution has run all these years, almost entirely through the support, from 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 of the State University of Pennsylvania 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 from $100,000 which must be secured generously to this fund and now of the Afro-Americans have contribute asking what the Afro-Americans propose to do. The authorities of the University are making a nation-wide effort to rescue 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 be sent to the rescue now and June 1st. Checks and moneyorders 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, NC. Checks and moneyorders to the office OF THE APBEAL will be acknowledged in its columns. Shall we rally to the call of an institution which from its foundation has aimed to set the feet of young Afro-Americans in the path to all the learning and cultivation of the best institutions of the land afford?
