Paris—As a man with an expensive position to keep up, a fixed income and a steadily increasing family. King Alfonso XIII of Spain, no doubt argues that it would be ridiculous to surrender a bequest of some $500,000 merely because the man who has left it to him died in a lunatic asylum. M. Sapene, the father of the alleged lunatic, was a wealthy Paris printer, who died in 1883, disinheriting his daughter, Mme. Sacae, to the benefit of his son Albert. The son sold the business and returned to the Luchon district, where he led a life of gayety. He fell in love with a country girl, and when she died in 1907, he gave her the grandest funeral he could and placed her remains in the family vault. He learned some months later that she had not always shown that fidelity to that he had believed, so he had been banished and placed in a much more humble tomb. He suffered from persecution mania, believing enemies were on his track on every side. He wrote innumerable letters denouncing the enemies. Over $0,000 were addressed to the mayor of Montanuban-de-Luchon in a year Twenty-seven arrived one morning. His condition became such that he was placed in a lunatic asylum in 1903, where he died in 1911. After his KING ALFONSO XIII. OF SPAIN. death a notary produced his will, writ ten entirely by himself on crested pa- per, dated 1908, which said: "I leave all my property as well as my titles of nobility and dignities of nobility to the present king of Spain." He saw the face of the man, disheiried by her brother in the war with her father, wrote a respectful letter to King Alfonso, giving her reasons for believing her brother not fit to make a will, but the king took the usual steps to entering into possession of an inheritance, whereupon Mme. Sacase brought an action to upset the will. M. Maurice Bernard appeared for King Alfonso in the action brought by Mme. Sacase. He began with an appeal to Alfonso's great popularity in France, making a vague promise as to the king's great king would make of his inheritance. "If the young sovereign, whose generosity, elegance and chivalrous grace have charmed all France, has taken his present attitude in this case," he said. "It is no doubt because he has found a new opportunity for one of those acts which reach the hearts of peoples and will allow him to give a proof, here in Luchon, of the attachment which never ceases to bind him to France." Ever said he was not at liberty to speak more plainly, but it is understood that he referred to the establishment of some charitable foundation of which King Alfonso has long thought. 107 "BECAUSE A BACHELOR." "My Life Never Blighted by Worry or Illness Because I Never Married." Los Angeles, Cal.-Daniel Turner, a veteran of the civil war, residing at Santa Monica, who celebrated his one hundred and seventh birthday recently, thanks his judgment in remaining single for his long life and apparent good health. "My life never was blighted by worry or sickness because I never married," said Unde兰 Cun. "Married men die younger than bachelors. Sometimes death is a welcome relief to the man who gets a modern wife." Banker to Erect $100,000 Structure as Memorial to Sop Chicago—a hotel for "down and out" men, to cost $100,000 will be created by Charles G. Dawes, president of the Central Trust company of Illinois as a memorial to his son, Rufus Fearing Dawes, who was drowned in Lake Greva on Sept. 5, 1912. Eventually Mr. Dawes will deliver a similar refuge for women of the same class. These hotels had been projects which the father and son had planned to carry out together, and Mr. Dawes pledged himself to devote all his spare time to carrying out the work his son had long looked forward to. "Lodging will be furnished at cost, not to exceed 6 cents," said Mr. Dawes. "The doors of this hotel will never be closed to those of employment. All we ask is that they promise to pay when they work again. It will extend credit to the unfortunate upon their promise alone. A free employment agency will be run in connection with the hotel. "My boy was greatly interested in the Y. M. C. A., and the idea of this work was originally suggested by that being done by the Bowery Y. M. C. A. of New York city." MAY GET ARTS DEGREE AT 15. Young 'Sidia, Mathematical Wonder, Entered Harvard at Eleven. Cambridge, Mass. - William James Sidis, fifteen, gives promise of obtaining a Harvard bachelor of arts next June. This youthful mathematical wizard entered the university at eleven as a specialist in mathematics. Meanwhile he has included sufficient other courses to make his college schedule behave like one. Young Sidis is the son of Dr. Boris Sidis, one of the foremost psychologists in the country. His young years were spent at the knees of his father, where he imbibed the rudimentary knowledge of mathematics which was later to make him known as one of the scholastic marvels of the country. At eight he entered the Brookline high school, and two years later saw him at Tuffs, where he remained for one year before entering Harvard. ICELAND GOING "DRY." No More Alcoholic Liquor There After This Year. Copenhagen. -At the end of the pres- ent year it will be impossible for either natives of tourists to obtain alcoholic liquors in Iceland. -Under the antisiphil law permission was given to consi- nate the present stock of liquors and figuring on the per capita consumption it will all be gone by the end of the year. The Danish government adopted the drastic prohibition laws because it was felt that the excessive drinking of the Icelanders was undermining the physical fitness of the people. QUAKER CITY MAYOR WILL GO TO SCHOOL Philadelphia.-Rudolph Blankenburg, the reform mayor of this city, and the members of his cabinet have decided to go back to school to take a course in political economy, so that they may be more competent to administer the affairs of the city. The mayor and at least two members of his cabinet have arranged to go to Madison. Wis. to attend a course in political economy of Wis. cousin. The course, which is short and theoretical, is designed to solve the problems that confront modern municipalities. When the mayor and his directors return they expect to be able to ride roughshod over some of the municipal quarriers which have all but engulfed them to date. The most trying difficulties are matters of finance. the mayor being desirous of getting enough funds to run the city, and members of councils having conveniently blocked every move the mayor acknowledges that if the city were to be run by a qualified of how to whip in line belligerent councilmen he and his directors will feel that they have been amply repaid for their trip west. Not only will Mayor Blankenburg and his advisers take the lecture course—which is to be jammed into three days—but the entire membership of the City club, an upfit organization, will probably accompany the officials. The special lecture program arranged to assist Mayor Blankenburg and his directors to run Philadelphia is comprehensive one. It has been arranged by the University of Wisconsin faculty and takes in every element of municipal existence, even telling what shall be done with the waste or unoccupied lands in a city, to say nothing of the broad subject of taxation. Court Closes When Dog Dies. Evans, Colo._When a terrier belonging to Judge James Treflon refused to answer his summons in the midst of a suit that Judge Treflon was hearing the court made an investigation and discovered that the animal was dead. Court was adjourned for the day. The judge made a coffin for his pet, and witnesses and jury as well as spectators attended the funeral. THE APPEAL. NEEDN'T WEAR WHITE SUITS. Spotless Linen Impedes Officers' Work In New York, Designee In Navy Yards, Daniels Hears. Washington.-Democratic simplicity has taken another long stride forward Navy officers in natty white uniforms will no longer be seen painfully and machine performers their duties in machine showrooms in navy yards, where every man may threaten to soil their spotlessness. In the course of a recent conversation with Colonel George W. Geethals, chief engineer of the Panama canal, when the latter was in Washington. Secretary Daniels asked if it was not irksome for the army officers on the Isthmus to wear white uniforms all the time. "It it surely is," replied Colonel Geethals, "and when a man is all the time he will get his clothes dirty he is no good whatever for any kind of work." Acting on this philosophical suggestion, Secretary Daniels when inspecting navy yards has asked the officers on duty if they enjoyed being in their uniforms while at work in the shops and storehouses. The unvarying answer has been that they would be very glad to get rid of them. The secretary then inquired what sort of clothes they would like to wear while at work, and every time the answer has been over. Officers like to show workmen how to do things. But to take hold of a machine lathe or a drill press and run it when one is dressed in immaculate white linen is expensive. So Secretary Daniels issued an order to commandants of navy yards to permit officers on duty under them to wear civilian clothes while on duty. REMEMBERED HIS HOST. Guest Bequeaths Hotel Owner $100,000 and an Auto. Philadelphia—After giving $317,500 to churches and charitable institutions of Philadelphia and vicinity the will of Francis Way Smith of this city gives Samuel W. W. Briggs $100,000 and directs that the latter shall have the use of a motorcar owned by the testator and be paid $1,500 a year for its upkeep. Mr. Briggs, who is referred to in the will as "my dear friend," is manager of the Colonnade hotel. "That a nice surprise," was Mr. Briggs. Commented that Mr. Smith had divided his time between here and Atlantic City and that when in Philadelphia he made his home at the Colonnade. Mr. Smith, a bachelor, inherited his money from his father, R. Jenks Smith. GIRL STUDENT LIVES ON 50 CENTS A WEEK Ithaca, N. Y.-Living on 50 cents a week for twenty weeks, Miss Clara S Loewus of Towanda, Pa., a student here, not only managed to complete her year's education in the study of the violin, but also broke the record of R. P. Sanford, the Cornell freshman who lived on 85 cents a week. For twenty weeks Miss Loewus, a pretty, light haired, blue eyed girl of seventeen, stocked up with provisions that cost her $10 and has finished the last of them. Here is her menu during that time: Breakfast—One cup of tea, two slices of stale bread tasted, spread with peanut butter. Lunchmeet—Two slices of stale bread spread with peanut butter and most always a cup of cocoa. Dinner—One boiled potato spread with dairy butter and two slices of stale bread spread with peanut butter. On special occasions, usually Sunday dinners, there were added to this menu tomatoes and eggs. Miss Loewus says she has actually learned to like this fare and that she did not crave more because she did not need it. NEVER SAW TOWN'S STATION. Mrs. Warren Had Been Resident of Georgetown Forty-five Years. Georgetown, Colo.—Mrs. Agnes Warren, whose funeral took place a few days ago, was a resident of Silver Plume for forty-five years. Mrs. Warren was eighty-six years old and during her long residence in Silver Plume had never seen the railroad station of the railroad met with an accident shortly after the robberado that left her a cripple for life. She is survived by two sons, James and Jesse Warren, both residents of Silver Plume. "WIN OR BREAK MY NECK." Motorcyclist Thrown a Second Time In Race and Killed. Macon, Ga.-Martin A. O'Brien, a local motorcyclist, was instantly killed when the machine he rode in an amateur motorcycle race skidded from a slippery track and plunged through a fence into a wall. Several minutes before, at the same place in the course, he had been thrown from his motorcycle, but escaped with minor injuries. He immediately mounted another machine, declaring, "I'll win this race or break my neck." CONGRESS ACTED HASTILY. 一 Forty-two Companies Which Would Be Affected Serve 50,000,000 Persons. Territory is East of Mississippi, North of Ohio and South of Canadian Border. New York.—The situation on forty-two eastern railroads when the members of the Order of Railroad Conductors and the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen voted almost unanimously to strike looked most threatening before arrangements to avoid the strike were completed. Preparations made to unravel the tangle and bring in workers and employees together for a settlement of the differences without the necessity of a general strike. Had the man struck every railroad in the east would have been tied up, temporarily at least. No provision had Photo by American Press Association. AUSTIN R. GARHETON OF CONDUCTORS' UNION. been made to move the mails or to haul milk supplies and produce into the crowded cities. The 100,000 members of the Order of Railway Conductors and Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen on the eastern systems who voted to strike unless the roads granted their demands have asked for a 20 per cent raise in wages and better working conditions. Through their conference committee the railroads refused the demands on the ground that the raise would be $77,000,000 annually and they can't afford to pay this sum. The employees offered to attend under the Erdman act, but the roads refused until the act was remodeled. This has been done. Forty-two railroads are affected. They control 48,000 miles of trackage and include every system traversing the territory east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio river and Chesapeake and Ohio railroad to the Canadian line. They serve 50,000,000 persons. When the question of a strike was put to a vote 72,473 declared in favor of leaving the service and 4,210 were recorded as being against such action. Every road ratified the strike vote.

The snake had crawled to the top of the pole and, coming in contact with the wires, forced a short circuit, put out the lights and incidentally died. Defective Page INCREASE IN FOOD ANIMALS. Number Killed in United States During the Fiscal Year 57,628,491. Washington. Reports to the department of agriculture show that in the fiscal year ended June 40 last 57,628,491 animals were slaughtered under federal inspection in the 700 slaughter establishments in 225 cities and towns of the United States an increase of nearly 5,000,000 over the previous fiscal year. Of the animals inspected by government officials in the last fiscal year there were 7,245,585 cattle, 2,277,054 calves, 1,497,934 sheep, 72,871 goats and 33,052,727 hogs. Slaughter establishments and meat food factories increased from 919 to 940 in the fiscal year. Chicago, with 12,910,506 animals slaughtered under federal inspection, leads in numbers. The other principal points of federally inspected slaughter are in the following order: Kansas City, 5,646,116; South Omaha, 4,600,655; New York, 3,034,685; national stock yards East St. Louis, 2,066,229; South St. Joseph, 2,671,443; Boston, 1,890,690; Indianapolis, 5,180,593; Sloan City, 800,500; Buffalo, 1,381,271. The total summations at the time of slaughter for cause or other causes numbered 223,867 and 494,238 parts of other carcasses or total of 727,015 condemnations. In addition, nearly 18,000,000 pounds of prepared meats and meat products were condemned on relinquishment because they had become unwholesome subsequent to the first inspection. COOK STOVES FOR PO03. Bequest of $10,000 Fifty-nine Years Ago Will Be Looked Up. Boston.—A hearing on a petition under the will of Thomas W. Sweetser, who died fifty-nine years ago, will be given in the Exscribe probate court, when an unusual provision—that of providing a cook stove with cook stoves—will get close attention. The will stipulated that $10,000 be paid to his native city, that this be put on interest at 6 per century and that $600 be spent annually in buying stoves and utensils for the poor if his estate amounted to $30,000 or more. Trustees to be elected must supervise the administration of the charity and must keep on hand a supply of food and utensils. Then, too, the trustees must keep on hand enough pipes for all the stores. If the will was made public fifty-nine years ago no official notice was taken, and the gift was forgotten. JINX IS DISCOVERED IN GERMAN'S CLOCK Amite City, La.-George Zollenburg returned to his home near this city after another ineffectual attempt to have the jinx taken out of his grandfather's clock. The ancient timepiece is to blame for a long train of misfortunes that started Friday, June 13, 1913. The following details have been supplied by Mr. Zollenburg. The clock was brought to this country by Mr. Zollenburg from time long before he missed a tick or let a second slip on unrecorded until noon on that fatal Friday. While waiting for dinner Zollenburg was surprised and alarmed to hear the old heilbright strike thirteen times for noon. "You'd better take that to clock mender in Hammond," said the watch fixer, and he put his hand behind him as though the old timepiece were hot. Zollenburg took the clock to Hammond and, not wishing to have it fixed under false pretenses, told the jeweler that he had wired a clock behind him. Neither of the Hammond clocksmiths would have touched the hoodoo with a fishing pole. Since then Zollenburg has taken the clock to every expert near here, only to have the job declined. That is not all. Here are a few of the things that have happened since, for which he blames the clock: His rich mother-in-law departed this life back in Germany without leaving him a red penniñ. His valued hen the one that walks with her carried her nest after sitting patiently for two and a half weeks on thirteen--there it is again-thoroughbred Cochin china eggs. His hired girl eloped with his best stable hand. Twelve kittens fell in a well near his home and were drowned. One was a fox, one was a husky, one was birth to tribbits, all of which were black as coal dust and males. PLANS FOR CELEBRATION. American Committee Will Erect United Canada Memorial Ash States-Canadian Memorial Arch. Duluth, Minn. - The American committee in charge of the celebration of 100 years of peace between English speaking peoples is planning a United States-Canada memorial arch or bridge as a feature of the event. The bridge will be located at the park, the Duluth and St. Vincent road will join the road to Winnipeg. It will be so placed as to command the junction of both roads with a road leading through North Dakota and South Dakota. A great lakes demonstration, particiated in by ships of the United States and Canada, also is planned. and Canada, also is planned.

Are Training For the Time When Wyes Will Vote. Picture Roose, Jr. Assessing they were fearful lest the ballot will be granted to women and the husband will have to do housework, the able-bodied men of this place have if raised an organization known as the Men's Sewing Square. At their last meeting they brought sewing bags and their wives' stockings to mend and began the task of plying the needle in order to ascertain if darning was as hard as they had always been led to believe. The Rev. 1. N. Earle, pastor of the Methodist church, who was elected chairman of the committee presided, and some of the work that the men performed is declared by their wives to have been far better than they could have imagined. The men prepared a supper without women's aid, which, they say, they ate with relish and were all home before 11 o'clock. The "square" will meet once each week. FIRST SMILE IN THREE YEARS Convict Who Grinned Hasn't Spoken In That Time. Stockton, Cal. "Silent" Carson, the convict who was brought to this city for investigation by aliens and who has not been known to utter a word during the three years that he has been under sentence of death for participation in a prison break, is reported to have smiled at one of the hospital attendants, and this may break down the obstacle that has prevented his execution on a charge of murder. Physicians who have had Carson under observation say this is the first display of any emotion on his part of which they have any record and that conclusions heretofore accepted as proving him insane may be reviewed. Carson is being subjected to a new and original system of investigation by several physicians. SWAT FLIES FOR PRIZES. Cincinnati to Raise $1,000 For War on the Pests. Cincinnati--"Swat the fly" crusaders have commenced hostilities against the household pests and will spend hundreds of dollars in their fight on them and their breeding places, according to the plans made here by the food committee of the Consumers' league. It is planned to raise $1,000 for prizes to the prizes who catch the most flies during the war, and to busiest spread disease. One plan is to ask all the women's clubs of the city and mothers' clubs in the schools to raise the money. Another plan proposed is to interest the business men. BLIND 32 YEARS, SHE IS REGAINING SIGHT Syracuse, N. Y.-Mrs. Peter Berger, who became totally blind thirty-two years ago, after an operation for cataracts, is regaining her sight. She can now distinguish the forms of persons standing against the light and can see the rays of electric street lamps and lights in her home. Her physician says that soon she will see as clearly as ever. Mrs. Berger is the mother of eleven children. She has seen only one of them. That was the oldest son, who died twelve years ago. Since she became blind she has attended to all her household duties and cared for her children. Mrs. Berger said: "I have prayed nightly and during the day that my sight shall be restored so I could see my children before I passed from this earth. "They have never refused to obey me and have treated me with the greatest of kindness. Some of them are married I have often wondered how the children appeared and even at times have pictured each of their minds in my mind. I am sure that I will not be disappointed in my first sight of them." Mrs. Berger said that she could clearly make out the outlines of people's forms, but was unable to distinguish their features.

FLAYS EXPERT TESTIMONY. Bias of Trained Scientific and Professional Men, He Avers, One of the Causes For Public's Dissatisfaction With Courts--Minor Errors Shouldn't Defeat Justice. Boston--In an address before the Massachusetts Bar association Dr. Charles W. Elliot, president emeritus of Harvard university, scathingly arraigned many of the practices that now obtained in the courts and declared the ethical standards among scientific and professional men needed to be raised much higher. "It ought to be a disgrace for an engineer, a chemist, a physicist or a physician or surgeon to appear in court for money, to set forth so much of the truth as tells in favor of one side of the case while suppressing all parts of the truth which support the contention of the other side," said Dr. Erlott. "It must be clear in all these professions that have convinced their members to appear in court only as impartial expositors of scientific truth so far as it is ascertained. "The responsibility of the medical profession in regard to the plea of insanity in criminal cases is heavy. Members of the profession are largely responsible for riving so called expert testimony which goes quite beyond the limits of present knowledge concerning mental diseases and for inventing storms. For instance—which are more verbal institutions drawn from obscure regions where facts are few and theories vague. In these shadowy regions it is easy to procure opposing or, indeed, contradictory medical opinions in great abundance, and unscrupulous lawyers are all too ready to avail themselves of the opportunity. Dr. Eliot had been invited to speak on "The Causes of Dissatisfaction With the Courts." He considered that "the passing of the judge, the disappear- DR. CHARLES W. ELIOT. ance of great courtroom advocates, the popular distrust of courts and the disposition of rich business men and corporations to avoid litigation and 'beat the law' so far as they safely can, and even farther." have constituted a vicious circle of evil tendencies which have had a deplorable influence on public opinion. Many failures of justice have resulted from the dismissal of suits because of flaws in the indictments, and these failures are peculiarly exasperating to the intelligent public. To its thinking, an insignificant error in spelling or grammar or in describing a place or a person should never be allowed to block the justice. An indictment need only have the degree of which will enable a sensible man to understand what is charged against the accused. Counsel do not seem to the public to be officers of a court seeking for truth and justice, but players of an unethical intellectual game. The judge seems to regard himself—often perform—as a mere murem between contending parties and not as an agent of the commonwealth to settle controversies on their merits. The American judge as a protecting agent for carrying out the substantial requirements of law and justice. Much of the injurious promulgation of testimony, cross examination and argument in the American courts is due to the fact that the judges have been deprived of effective control over counsel. The judge should always be the principal person in the courtroom. He is in England; often he is not in this country. The American practice of testimony has been reliably impaired in many states the quality of judges and their position in the community. The very voters that elect the judges easily acquire a habit of distracting them.

The St. Louis City Council has passed an ordinance to end tipping. The bill provides for a fine of from $10 to $50 for each offense and both the tipper and tippie are liable. An informer of an infraction of the ordinance will receive half of the fine. Ain't it awful, Mabel! In Calcutta, India, recently the natives attacked a wedding procession and beat to death the bridegroom because he failed to distribute the customary tips of bak-sheesh. And it is probably that this caused the St. Louis city fathers to get busy. Great credit is due to Hon. James C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., for the manly stand he took in resigning his office of Register of the Treasury when he found that he could not get an order rescinded which segregated the Afro-American clerks in his department. The different races and colors have gotten along peaceably and amicably together for scores of years. Where is the need for segregation now? It is absolutely wrong uncalled for and unnecessary. 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. To escape a prison sentence, C. H. Holt, a white man of Kansas City, claims to be an Afro-American. Then he went to Memphis and held up an Afro-American for $200, and was caught and identified. P. G. Wolo, a full-blooded African chief has passed his entrance examination at Harvard and will enter the university in September. Being a chief in Africa won't help him much in this country. M. B. CHR.

I will never bring disgrace upon my race by any unworthy deed or dishonorable act. I will live a clean, decent, many life; and will ever respect and defend the virtue and honor of womanhood: I will uphold and obey the just laws of my country and of the community 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 humilate my soul; but will ever preserve the inner freedom of heart and conscience: will not allow myself to be overcome of evil; but will strive to overcome evil with good: I will endeavor to develop and exert the best powers within me for my personal improvement; and will strive unceasingly to quicken the sense of racial duty and responsibility: I will in all these ways aim to uplift my race so that, to everyone bound to it by ties of blood; it shall become a bond of ennoblement, and not a byword of reproach.

On last Monday morning there passed from this vale of tears one of the most widely known citizens of this commonwealth in the person of Mr. Andrew Jackson who departed this life at 5:10 Monday morning at the residence of his nieces, 525 St. Anthony avenue, aged 78 years. Mr. Jackson was born in Rutherford county, Tennessee, but when he grew to manhood he would not stand the treatment he received, as a slave, so he ran away from his home and finally came to St. Paul about the time of the Civil War, where he has lived ever since. For a number of years he worked as butler for Lamb & Son, one of the old time butcheres, who was of over thirty years the custodian, Union Block, No. 49 E. 4th street. He was a man of sterling quality, a law abiding and upright citizen. He is presumed to be the oldest M. SIR KNIGHT ANDREW JACKSON. SIR KNIGHT ANDREW JACKSON. Mason among the Afro-Americans of Minnesota and had good sonic ladder to the thirty-second degree. He was well versed in Masonic work and did not need a ritual to guide him as he had it in his head. He was among the earliest members of Pilgrim Baptist church and an ardent worker for many years. A few years ago he left the church during some of its troubles, but a short time with this membership and died in the full trilogy of Christian faith in good standing. A few months ago he had a physical breakdown owing to his age and strenuous labor and he was cared for by his Masonic brethren at Crispus Attucks but, when he was taken seriously ill last Saturday he was resumed.

Phone Dale 6893. 545 AJRORA. So many persons in both St. Paul and Minneapolis who enjoyed the entertainment which I have given in the last few years, and some who were not, have some course, to get to them, have imparted me to give another this year. "Why Have Kinky Hair?" Few people can imagine the amount of work and worry there is in connec- tion, and, while first class entertainment; undertake what I know by experience to be an "awful job." I will do as I have always done before—go into it the lim and push can command, if I can do it. People of the Twin Cities will go with me. I can do nothing by myself, the people made the other entertainment there, and I will be up to them to do all that. I will wash the button if they will do the rest. STRAT-N-IT NAME OF ALL-RAIN STRATHTENEMER BEFORE AFTER As this is the Fifthth Anniversary year of our emancipation and as it is to us, we can celebrate it here under the auspices of THE APPEAL and thus two birds can be killed with one stone in the Emancipation Day.

DAYLIGHT TOWNSEND Pilgrim Baptist Church In spite of the hot weather the services at Pilgrim Baptist church are well attended morning and evening. Last Sabbath the pastor preached one of the best sermons he ever delivered. The pastor was delighted. As a preacher he has long since measured up and beyond his reputation as a fine preacher. He baptized four persons Sunday night and was delighted. McDonald is filling many pieces of long felt need; encouraging, helping the many who call on him night and day.
