TAKE CHARLTON TO ITALY FOR TRIAL HOW WE MURDERED WIFE. Fight Against Extradition Occasioned International Interest and Threatened to Embroil This Country With Italy—Long Fight at Last Ended. New York, Porter Charlton, the young American who killed his bride in their villa at Lake Como, Italy, in June, 1910, and who for three years has successfully fought extradition, has been turned over to the Italian government and will be tried for his crime. In the Hudson county jail at Jersey City Charlton was under espionage which was relaxed neither day nor night in the fear that he might be taken down on own life rather than a free living death in the Italian dungeon. He had no visitors save his devoted father, Paul Charlton, former United States Judge at Port Rico; his mother and brother and his counsel. The crime for which Charlton now stand trial created worldwide attention to the greatness of his setting and the prominence of the shiny family. The light against extradition occasioned international interest and PORTER CHARLTON. at one time threatened to embroil this country with Italy. Porter Charlton was a New York bank clerk when he met Mrs. Neville H. Castle, a divorcee and daughter of Henry H. Scott, a San Francisco commerchant. The wooling of Charlton was ardent and ralph, with the result that the couple were secretly married in Wilmington, Del., in April, 1910. A few days later they sent announcements to Henry H. Scott, who rode on their bonegown. Letters received by Captain Scott, attached to the coast artillery at Fort Myer, led to the belief that the couple were happy and peacefully enjoying themselves. On the morning of June 10 the body of Mrs. Charlton was found by fishermen in a trunk in Lake Como not far from the villa the pair had occupied. An investigation was started by the police of Cernobbio, and a Russian named Constantine ispolatot was arrested by the authorities searched for Charlton. It was at first believed Charlton had met death defending his wife's honour and the lake was searched for his body. Then it was learned from the proprietor of the Hotel Suisse at Cernobbio that a couple had frequently appeared there and registered as Mr. and Mrs. Potter. They had often quarreled, and on several occasions the woman had been weeping. Once the guests heard shrieks, and the prosecution closed the case, a closer. Later her husband dragged her to the street, and the proprietor asked the pair to leave his hotel. These stories turned suspicion upon Charlton, and the police of the entire world were asked to arrest him on sigh. None of the detectives assigned to the case was more indefatigable than Captain Scott. He swore to be in charge of the leave of absence. Scott thought his life might be on the Deutschland mind was on hand when she docked. No trace of Charlton was found, and he strolled over to the Princess brine. He had never seen the object of his quest, but a man on the pler answered his description, and he caused his arrest. He had arrived under an assumed name, but admitted his identity. His name was found stitched inside his coat, and seemed glad that the strain was over. At police headquarters he made a written confession, in which he said that, while his wife was "the best woman in the world," they often quarrel over trivial matters, and she would call him foul names. The night of the murder she went into a temper, and in a daze he struck her with a mallet he had been using to straighten out the leg of her. He then placed the body on a bed, and he seded the trunk from the villa to a small plank and threw it into Lake Como. MILLIONS FROM "VICES." Record Breaking Drinking, Smoking and Card Playing Taxes. Washington.-The wealth of gold, silver and paper money, filling the vaults of the federal treasury is due in no small measure to the record breaking drinking, smoking and card playing of the American people during the fiscal year 1913. Details of the sources of the $344,424,453 collected in internal revenue taxes during the year ended on June 30—the greatest in the history of the country—were disclosed in a report to Secretary McAdoo by William H. Osborne, commissioner of internal revenue. The 143,220,000 gallons of whisky and brandy consumed during the year buret in $157,542,000 of the 05246,000 barrels of whisky and brandy, ales. $17,246,000; the 14,270,717,000 of the 17,844,000; the 7,699,038,000 cigars. $23,007,000 and the smoking and 404,838,000 pounds of tobacco. $32,349,000; on taxes 32,300,000 pounds of snuff. $2,657,000, and the sale of 32,764,155 packs of playing cards, an increase of 1,952,475 over the previous year, brought $655,283. The aggregate number of saloons in the country this year was 194,590, a decrease, despite the increased consumption of intoxicants, of 21,554 as compared with the fiscal year 1912. The number of saloons numbered 6,452 a decrease of 600 within the total internal revenue receipts of 1913 exceeded the previous high record of 1911 by $2,189,088 and the collections of 1912 by $22,909,000. To collect the enormous sum it cost the government $5,483,000. ESCAPE FROM NEW JAIL. Boys Use a Save and Leave a Friendly Note For the Sheriff. Macon. Mo.-Robert Zoll, twenty two years old, and Alvin Mueller nineteen, awaiting trial for robbing a preacher's residence, sawed through the steel wall of their cell at night and escaped to the woods. A sheriff's pose surrounded and explored the woods, but did not find the fugitives. Zoll had made a written confession. In the morning this note was found in the vacant cell: She Shied Holley -Best regards to you and your family. We were invited to lead an honest, upright life we decided that it would be necessary to get away from evil associates in jail. Your friends. The Macon jacon is a new $22,000 structure and was supposed to be absolutely proof against escape. OHIO ORGANIST IS VIGOROUS AT 127. Massilion, O.-Members of St. Barbara's Roman Catholic church at West Brookfield, a hamlet west of here, have begun preparations to celebrate next December the one hundred and twenty-eighth birthday anniversary of Francis Xavier Firelinet, parish organist, one time parish schoolmaster, schoolmaster. For years Mr. Firelinet has lived in the town, known to be more than 100 years of age by every man, woman and child, loved by everybody, but jealously guarding information regarding his life from all but a very few intimate friends. Mr. Firelinet lives alone in a little cottage in the rear of St. Barbara's church. Gardens and fields stretch away on all sides, while his door yard is bordered with bright, sweet scented flowers. Inside are shelves of books for language learners, great languages he speaks, a little catholic book, a row of bronzed pipes bristling from its top, comfortable chairs, a table and the equipment of a well organized home. Mr. Firelinet raises vegetables, but bread and coffee are his almost exclusive diet, and he thrives upon it. as his healthy looking but wrinkled skin and slightly stooped but active figure testify. Mr. Firelinet has drunk wine as long as can can cower, and that is on the other side of your mind, when as a boy he went to school in Vienna, Austria, where his father was a noted physician. SUCK POISON; SAVE GIRLS. Women Draw Virus From Wounds of Children Bitten by Dog Rochester, N. Y. — Elise Parish, writer of verse for children, and Mrs. Willing Sterling of Pittsford took her measures to save the lives of two little girls that had been bitten by a dog that was suffering from rabies. They applied their lips to the wounds on the little ones and drew much of the virus from the flesh, but apparently took part of the poison into their own systems. They became so ill that Dr. C. C. Comfort telegraphed to Corpus university for hydrophilous serum. It so followed that all four will recover. Dr. Comfort will take no chances and will have them all inoculated. Burn Watkshop With Acid. Middletown, N. Y. — When negroes attempted to rob the hehouses of W. F. Popple at Monroe, they were frightened away by an Irish terrier longing to Henry Wellington Wack. The dog's paws have now been ruined with virulent acid. A big reward has been offered for the conviction of the guilty. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, AUGUST 23, 1913. DEATH REVEALS LOVE TRAGEDY DEATH REVEALS LOVE TRAGEDY Pretty Trained Nurse Accused of Causing Doctor's Death. ROMANCE OF JEALOUS LOVE Miss Emma E. Krill Accused of Administering Poison to Dr. Stanley E. Kron, Young Italian Physician-She Denies That She Caused His Death. Utica, N. V. "The love tragedy of two young lives may be bared as a warning to other girls by development poison which forms the mystery of death of Dr. Stanley E. Kron, a handsome young Italian physician, and the subsequent accusation against Miss Emma E. Krill, an attractive trained nurse, employed at the same hospital with the doctor. Was this strange death the result of a drug administered by the nurse? Was it a case of suicide? Or was it a case of accidental poison? These are the three leading questions, one of which will have to be accepted as the solution by the authorities. After taking poison is a manner which has not been yet explained, the physician died without making any statement. His alleged fancee was suspected from the first, as she was alone in the room with the doctor and in the room where she is stanch in the statement that she monounced to the bedside of the physician and on her arrival found him suffering greatly. He ordered some medicine, she continues in her explanation, and, thinking it would relieve his sufferings, she obtained it and prepared a M. DR. KRON AND MISS KRILL, ACCUED NURSE. dose under his directions. Death resulted shortly afterward. The doctor never regained consciousness. That Miss Krill was not married to the doctor and that she left one hospice and entered the institution here in order to him are facts the state was quick to show when the accusation was first made. As a probable motive for the crime the prosecution alleges that Miss Krill feared that Dr. Kron was about to return to Europe and leave her alone in America and in order to prevent this she caused his death. "It is true they were not married," the attorney for the defense is quoted, "but they were to have been married, and both were looking forward to the marriage of particular happiness. After marriage they were going to live Europe." For some reason which has not been made known the marriage did not occur as, it is said, had been planned. The attorney also denied rumors to the effect that poison had been found in the young girl's hand bag. Facts that tend to strengthen the theory of suicide and others that seem to indicate that murder had been comedied gradually added to the child of whom she adhered by the state, emphasizing the love of hate, romance and jealousy. The intense love and passionate affection borne by Miss Krill for the young Italian physician led her to guard him jealously and caused her to become involved in trouble with several other young girls of the doctor's nationality in this city when he endowed to see them. Smothered to Death In Bed. Middletown, N. Y.-Miss Martha Fall of New York city, a patient at the state hospital! here was smothered to death in the pillows of her bed. She was subject to epileptic fits and in a conulsion buried her head in the pillows. SOUTHERN COLLEGES GOOD. Entrance Standards, Faculties and Equipment of Highest Order. Washington—Southern colleges since 1900 have made a remarkable advancement not only in entrance requirements, but in libraries, laboratories, buildings and equipment, according to a statement of the bureau of education Miss Elizabeth Avery Coulton, secretary of the Southern Association of Colored Women, which reported on conditions, declared that in the three southern colleges had standard requirements for entrance, while this year 100 institutions had adopted such standards. Miss Coulton attributed the improvement to various philanthropic organizations which cooperated to better the educational system in the south. In the philanthropic organizations entrance requirements, she declared, had come a decided increase also in the amount of college work represented by the degree, while in the personnel of the faculties marked improvements were shown. NO HOLIDAY FOR GOV. CRUCE. Finds Convicts Pardoned and Contracts Signed in His Absence. Oklahoma City, Okla.—"I will never leave the state again as long as I am governor," declared Governor Lee Cruce who, upon being informed of the action of Lieutenant Governor McAlester in granting pardons to four prisoners and signing school bonds to which the governor was opposed, rushed post haste back to the capital. "I have canceled all engagements. I have out of the state, including the governor's conference at Denver, and shall make no others henceforth. I intend to stay strictly on the job." Lieutenant Governor McAlester, who is perhaps seventy-five years old, is in the race for governor at the next election. Among the prisoners the acting governor pardoned was B. H. Updike, a nephew of former Governor Haskell, sentenced to life imprisonment for murder. LIVES IN FOREST IN ADAM'S GARB. Boston Artist Makes Woods Furnish Food and Shelter. Boston, Mass.-Joseph Knowles, a Boston artist, is in the middle of an experiment to prove that he can live in the Maine forests, twenty miles from a settlement, just as did prehistoric man. He discarded all clothing, made the woodland furnish his food and shelter and defends himself from animals or other foes only with the aid of his bare hands or with such weapons as he may fashion with them. For two months he will make his home in the depths of the virgin forest that surrounds Big Sense lake. Twice a week he goes to the borders of the forest to leave communications, insecure, and bark chick. for his friends. Knowles has never married and has lived a life of adventure. He is one of the few white men who have mastered the art of making fire by rubbing sticks. The accomplishment, he says, is all that is needed for a life in the open by a man of his robust health. LIFTS TUG OUT OF SEA. Defiance Endangered by Eighty Foot Whale, Captain Smith Saves Baltimore—Captain L. M. Smith of the sea going tug Defiance that when between Cape Henry and False cape, off the Virginia coast, an eight foot whale lifted the tug, which dropped with a plunge and a terrific roll. Mate Rose had difficulty in steadying the vessel. Immediately afterward the whale arose alongside and sent forth a stream of water which deluged the Defiance. It followed the tug about a half mile. At one time the whale lifted itself almost two-thirds out of the water, he said. The captain, who is an old tar, says it was the largest whale he has ever seen. WOMAN, A LAND AGENT. Mrs. Caukin's Political Activity In California Rewarded. San Francisco.-With the affair of President Wilson's signature, Mrs. Grace Caukin of Sonoma, Cal., will receive a $4,500 Democratic plum and at the same time become the first woman land agent in the United States. Mrs. Caukin, who was an active member of the women's committee of the Democratic state central committee during the last presidential campaign, has received word from Washington that the appointment has been confirmed by the senate. The will receive is held at present by John J. Dean and the official title is receiver of the United States land office. Seventy-year-old Convict Back in Jail, Mobile, Ala.-William Kennedy, seventy years old, the convict who escaped from the Wetumpka penitentiary, was captured after two weeks of freedom in Calibou county near his old home. Kennedy was serving a life sentence for implication in the Kennedy-Pearce law, in which twelve people were killed. Pension and Income Fail to Supply His Needs. HIS FIANCEE IS WEALTHY. Fortune to Be Recouped When He Marries Princess Victoria Augustine of Hohenzollern—Deposed King Now Living Near London With Mother. London.—Pawnbrokers in the neighborhood of Richmond, the historic little town on the Thames where Manuel, now making his home with his Queen Amelie, have been in temporary possession for the last few months of many very beautiful pieces of jewelry and some very valuable unset gems. One diamond cross with a huge sapphire in the center which now lies in the safe of a certain pawnbroker in Richmond is said to be one of the most gorgeous and gorgeous decorations worn by Manuel Pelhers. Considerable wonder is expressed that the young man who once occupied the Portuguese throne should be in such hard straits, for Portugal allows him $3,300 a month. He is extravagant, however, and his mother is understood not to be very practical. Manuel marries Princess Victoria Augustine of Hohenzollern in a few weeks his fortunes will be recoupled. King Alfonso during his recent visit to London had a heart to heart talk with Manuel. He told the young man that if the royalist party ever succeeded in putting him back in power in Portugal it would be his duty to play the man and not the coward, to bout with a bodyguard and in fact, to his people by demonstrating that he was all a king and no longer a boy. 1913, by American Press Association. EX-KING MANUEL AND HIS FIANCEE, PRINCESS VICTORIA AUGUSTINE. swayed by whims and theatrical stars such as Gaby Dealsy and constantly in terror of his life. Alfonso added with characteristic fatalism and intrepidity: "A king must not only rule his people, but must make them feel he is willing to lead them and share their troubles and their dangers. We kings are instruments in the hands of fate and must serve our destiny in the best and most many fashion we can, no matter what fate we may face." Continental monarchs do not approve in toto of the public introduction in England of the former Portuguese royal family as "King Manuel and Queen Amelie." The German emperor in particular has been much puzzled lately, as to how to treat the approaching marriage of the royal exile with a German princess. He does not want to antagonize the present Portuguese government, and at the same time there is no reason why he should not maintain friendly relations with Manuel, who is related to more than one of the royal families of Europe and whose chance of one day meeting the Portuguese throne is by no means poor. The kaiser has solved the difficulty by saying that Prince Elisel Friedrich may attend the wedding as a specially invited guest, but not as the official representative of the reigning Hohenzollern family, thus straddling the fence in the most approved diplomatic fashion, for the presence of the German prince will give the necessary recognition after all. Worked Eighteen Years Without Pay. Montpellier, Ind. J-1. Stewart, sixty years old, who for eighteen years worked as a clerk in a cigar store here without pay, died recently. Though he had access to the cash drawer, with instructions to take any amount he wanted, he always contented himself with taking 15 cents three times a day to buy his meals and an occasional sum with which to buy clothing.

Bays Hai Rays Explode Submarine Mines Fifteen Miles Away. way. Paris—in an interview in connection to his invention by means of which he says he is able to fire explosives many miles distant by the employment of infra-red rays, the Italian Ulivi asserts that he has succeeded in exploding a submarine mine fifteen miles away by a yacht on which he was experimenting. Ulivi declined absolutely to give details of his apparatus or results of the tests carried out in the presence of high officials of the French army and navy. He is said to be about to leave Havre, where there is too much danger for others. "It is certain," he says, "that if the infra-red rays struck explosives they would cause a disaster. It is said that the rays will put an end to all warfare if they are able to do what the inventor says they can. FIGHTING CATTLE TICK. Tennessee to Be First Southern State Freed From Quarantines. Washington.—The presence of the tick among cattle in the southern states lessens the value of cattle on the hoof and causes a lower grading of hides, which means to the producer a number of thousands of dollars, says a department of the public health report on the ravages of the pest. Experts asserted that southern cattle raisers lose $1.26 on every hide infested with the tick. Campaigns to eradicate the pest have been waged with considerable success by bureau of animal industry veterinarians. Tennessee probably will be the first state to be entirely free from the quarantine of the tick, which already has been eradicated fifty-one counties. Cattle raisers have 60 cents per head in the campaign in Tennessee, while they have gained about $7 per head thereby. BASEBALL PITCHER SAVES BOY'S LIFE. Washington—Warren A. Slee, thirteen years old, owes his life to a letter and a baseball from his idol; Walter Johnson, pitcher of the Washington baseball team. Ever since Warren has been old enough to go to baseball games he has looked with awe on Walter Johnson. Several weeks ago he became ill with appendicitis, and an operation was necessary. Physicians said they did not think he would recover. The boy was delirious part of the time and talked incoherently about Walter Johnson. When the team came back from the western trip a member of the Slee family told Mr. Johnson of the situation. Physicians said they could not permit the pitcher to see the boy for fear the excitement would be fatal. So the pitcher sent a letter and a baseball used in one of his victorious games in the west. Here is the letter: Mear Dwarf-Warren—I take pleasure in sending you herewith one of the baseball used on our western trip and hope that you have the opportunity of using it with your friend. There was a change for the better at once, and Warren will be able to leave the hospital soon. When he does he intends to go to Mr. Johnson's hotel to thank him. CAT RETURNS CANARY. Bird Flies Away, and Feline Turns Sleuth and Returns It. Reading. Pa.-While Mrs. Franklin Woods of Denver township was cleaning her canary bird's cage the canary flea away. The family cat then seemed discussolate. That night the cat disappeared and nothing was seen of either of the household pets until four days later, when the cat came back. Tenderly holding the missing bird by a wing, wife dearest her burden to Mr. Woods. His place at once restored it to its cage. When there was not room on the bird. Mr. Woods believes the cat went out in search of the missing canary and, when he heard its song, captured it. HAS THIRD SET OF TEETH Cat Near Death, When Diet Wrought Marvelous Change. Huntingdon, Pa.—Dr. C. W. Fox of Boaring Springs is the possessor of a cat that has its third set of teeth. Some time ago the cat became weak and thin, and as it was seventeen years old it was expected to die. Finding that the cat was toothless, the physician ordered ground steak for his old pet, and soon a change for the animal was noted. Now the animal is fat and sleek, and its fur is thick and glossy. Upon examination it was found that it had grown its third set of teeth. Unearths Mastodon's Tusk. Hardman, N. Y.-While digging in a swamp on his farm near here W. J. Post unearthed the tusk of a-mastodon, which is said to be one of the largest ever found. Mr. Post expects to find other portions of the skeleton in the vicinity. The tusk measured five feet and four inches in length and fifteen inches in circumference. $2.40 PER YEAR. CANAL TO BE USED NEXT DECEMBER Final Completion Expected Jan. 1, 1915, However. DREDGES IN CULEBRA CUT. Steam Shovels Displaced by Thirty-four Modern Appliances With a Monthly Excavating Capacity of 1,500,000 Cubic Yards. Washington—All reports from the Panama canal zone indicate that Colonel George W. Goethals will be ready to allow shallow draft ships to pass through the canal by next December. This has been the understanding ever since Colonel Goethals testified before the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce in December, 1913, but he and his associates do not expect the canal to be ready for the navies of the world until Jan. 1, 1919. No official time has been fixed for the actual opening, but that is the date when Colonel Goethals expects to complete the work. Dredges are to replace steam shovels in the excavation of the Culebra Cut. The thirty-four steam shovels used in the cut handle only 800,000 cubic yards of earth and rock per month, which output will be greatly reduced as the depth of the cut increases and the available room for shovelling is reduced. Colonel Goethals has now assembled fifteen dredges, with a monthly capacity of 1,000,000 cubic yards, of the earth and rock that the cut as soon as the dike is destroyed. Meanwhile, not content with digging away at the base of the cliffs, the engineers, in their haste to open up the waterway, have begun to tear away the top of the hills with great jets of water under high pressure, sluicing the earth into the bed of the canal, whence it is being swept up by pneumatic dredges and pumps and discharged into ravines and valleys so far away that it can never wash back. The status of the canal work, according to the understanding among officials, the reports from the isthmus, is as follows: June 27.1923—The last gate of Gatun spillway was closed, and since that time Gatun lake has been steadily rising from the leading edge of the Chagres river to other estuaries, draining 1,232 square miles of territory. Oct. 1.1923—The water in Gatun lake is reaching to seventy-one feet above sea level. Oct. 10.1923—The great Gambao dike, keeps the water of Gatun lake from flowing into operations, is to be blown up with dynamite and water admitted into the cut. The top of this dike is 78.2 feet above sea level. Dec. 1.1923—The level of the water in Gatun lake and Culebra cut is expected to be its final limit of eighty-five feet above sea level. December, 1933—Vessels drawing problems may be put through the canal, while giant dredges will be completing the deepening of submerged channel through Culea ae. Jan. 1, 1934—The canal will be ready for the first set of locks, and through both sets of locks, and dredges will be able to use the canal to its full capacity, going in opposite directions at the same time. INVENTS TIPPING SYSTEM. Opens Bank Account For Waitress. Deposits Follow Good Service. St. Louis—Lee Moser, a banker, has convinced himself that he has worked out the ideal tipping system. Mr. Moser, who is young and good looking, thought he was so well taken care of by a young woman who waited on him in his favorite lunch room that he obtained her name and went to the savings department of a trust company and opened a dollar account in her name. He kept patronizing the cafe, and nope, she got with the savings account could wait on him. He never affronts her with a tip, but when he feels that the service is especially good a deposit goes to the credit of the waitress.

Wherever the white man has put his foot among human beings of darker hue, he has caused trouble, sorrow, suffering, sin and death. "God was taking care of us all right until the white man came and induced us to listen to his promises of protection. Last winter we had to live on dogs and frozen horse meat." This statement was made to Secretary of the Interior Lane, the other day by Chief Little Bear of a tribe of Chippewa Indians. Hichiro Tokutomi, editor of Kokumin Shimun of Tokyo, Japan, expresses similar sentiments. He says, "For thousands of years white men have acted as if the whole world was theirs. Since the days of Athens and Rome they have seemed to consider themselves the chosen people of God. They are most proud of their religion and call other people pagans. But if these pagans be converted to Christianity will the whites treat them as equals?" He further states that: "the time has come to put an end to this white arrogance. He does not seek to arouse antagonism, but, to preach the principals of universal brotherhood by destroying the unjust prejudices of the white races which are prompted by selfish purposes." Our very particular friend, Vardaman, who never loses an opportunity to show how despicable, despicable and dirty he is, has been at it again. This time he refers to the Afro-Americans as 10,000,000 "Semi-Savages" that they should be segregated under civil service and have white overseers to make them work. As a matter of fact the Afro-Americans under civil service all hold their places on merit, having not only passed the examinations but climbed over the barriers of prejudice that are constantly placed in their pathway. In some of the southern cities every one of the mail carriers is an Afro-American, and in Chicago over 600 of the men in the postoffice are Afro-Americans. If semi-savages can make such showings what will they not do when they become wholly civilized? We think that this thought is what is troubling Vardaman and other creatures in "human form" of his lik. They see the handwriting on the wall. "We's risin." We publish in this issue the form of a petition to President Wilson against Jim Crowing and color segregating by the federal government. CUT IT OUT. SIGN IT YOUSELF. GET YOUR ACQUAINTANCES TO SIGN IT AND THEN FORWARD TO THIS OFFICE TO BE FORWARDED TO THE PRESIDENT AT WASHINGTON. Copies of the petition have been placed in the hands of a number of men in the Twin Cities and elsewhere in the state and every Afro-American, and every actual believer in the brotherhood of man, black or white to whose notice it comes is requested to sign it. This is but one of the ways in which we can show our dissatisfaction with the outrageous discriminations which are constantly perpetrated upon us. SIGN THE PETITION. The Chicago Evening American of the 19th inst. contains an editorial on "Discrimination Against Citizens That Are Jews" and declares "it is an outrage upon republican government." All the arguments used will apply equally as well in the case of the Afro-American, who is a citizen to the manor born, and who has done equally as much as the Jew in the upbuilding of this country. We sympathize with the Jews because we have, like them, felt the heavy hand of race prejudice, even worse than they have. We understand that President Wilson claims that the Afro-Americans are in favor of and desire the segregation of employees of the government. The President is sadly misinformed or has jumped to the wrong conclusion. Let every liberty-loving, self-respecting, manly Afro-American in the United States write him a letter denying in the strongest terms that such is a fact. DO IT NOW. The race papers all over the country are greatly wrought up over the Jim Crow segregation which is being put into operation by the prejudiced crazed white men at Washington and are voicing their sentiment in vigorous and unmistakable terms. We have not space to even slightly refer to what they are saying, but we agree with and indorse every word. It is not often that we can agree with the sentiments of old "pitchfork" tilman, but we are with him in his position against woman suffrage, "it will harm them more than it will help the country," but he believes its coming; and, so do we.

This is to certify that we, the undersigned, are surprised and indignant that under your administration there should be any rules made by members of your Cabinet to segregate employees of the national government by race or color. We protest against this as a plain insult, public degradation, an insufferable injury to Colored Americans, the establishment of caste in this free Republic. We petition you to reverse, prevent and forbid any such movement by your bureau chiefs, in accord with your promise of fair, friendly, just and Christian treatment of your Colored fellow-citizens. NAMES. ADDRESSES. So far as the Colored people are concerned, they are already deeply stirred by the action of several of Mr. Wilson's Cabinet officers in segregating the Negro employees within their departments—in some cases they are not aware of the concerns as even their aspect were contaminating. As usual in such cases, except the Negroes' welfare that it is being done. That they are thereby rendered in the possession of their offices, and are less likely to be discriminated against, is the sincere belief of some who have had part in this innovation. What they do not see is that this for the first time officially establishes that within a short time the Negro employees of the federal government; that within a short time the Negro employees of the "nigger departments" and made the objects of the deprivation and hinderment as Vardaman and Hoke Smith and their less conspicuous imitators; that the "nigger sections" will become as despised and neglected as the "Jim Crow" car. So far from helping the Negro to retain office, it will soon make it important for fine and able Negroes of self-respect to enter a service which becomes more interior, as interior, as people who must be set off less mere contact with them in order to avoid contamination. In the far south every fresh act of discrimination, every form of degrade and to humiliate, will allow its justification by this action of the federal government. Needless to say, those Cabinet officers who have begun this shocking segregation process took great care not to ascertain what the wishes and feelings of those to be "Jim Crowed" might be. It was the point of view of those who had the power to act which prevailed. That all of this will go without challenge is not to be expected. The progressive senators are already alive to their opportunity. The-Colored people themselves are beginning to be heard from, and their political influence is not to be despised. But we do not believe that this phase of it will concern Mr. Wilson. We think that when the matter is put in its true light he will withhold his sanction from it, just as we believe that we do not permit any southern reactionaries, however influential, to deter him from giving in the matter of offices fair play to a heavily disadvantaged race. To the President of the United States, Hon. Woodrow Wilson, White House, Washington, D. C. This is to certify that we, the unindignant that under your administration made by members of your Cabinet to national government by race or color, a plain insult, public degradation, an insult Americans, the establishment of caste petition you to reverse, prevent and for your bureau chiefs, in accord with your just and Christian treatment of your Clerk.

We clip the following from one of our exchanges to warn our delinquent subscribers what a hot time they will pay to pay their newspaper bills. The time awaits our slow-paying advertisers. "An editor who died of starvation was being escorted to Heaven by an angel sent for that purpose." "May I be so grateful," he wrote fore we ascend to eternal happiness." So they went below and skimming around, taking in the sights. It so happened that the angel lost track of the editor and went around Hades hunting him. He found him slitting his throat and killing him self and gazing with rapture upon a crowd of lost souls in the fire. Over the furnace was a sign bearing the words, "Delinquent subscribers." "Come, said the angel, "we must be gone so you go on." said the editor, "I'm not going." This is heaven enough for me." Mr. C. A. Jarret has returned from St. Paul.

That Death Loves a Shining Mark Again Demonstrated in a Manner That Shocked This Community on Last Sunday Afternoon. "A precious one from us is gone, A voice we loved is stilled; A place is vacant in our home, Which never can be filled." This stanza constituted the closing words of the obituary that was read at the funeral of Israel Hart Alex- at St. James A. M. E. church last Tuesday afternoon, who was accidentally drowned while bathing in Bald Eagle Lake Sunday afternoon, August 17th. The deceased, Israel Hart Alexander was born October 18, 1884 in Richmond, Ind. He was the fourth child of Latayette and Martha Alexander, and the early days of hisville, Ky., where the early days of the public were spent. He attended the public schools, from which he graduated in 1897 with honor, he being one of the two young men who delivered orations at the graduating exercises. Later he went to Chicago to join his brothers. He took the civil service exam and fourth on the list in a class of 135 that was examined at the same time. He subsequently received an appointment in the post office and served two years. He time after the death of his mother, his sister Mary, his Davis and moved to St. Paul, when she has since resided. The great ISRAEL HART ALEXANDER. devotion of the deceased for his sister caused him to obtain a transfer from Chicago to the St. Paul post office, so that they could be near each other. He professed religion at the early age of twelve years and joined Jacob Street Tabernacle in Louisville. When he went to Chicago he became a teacher in the Sunday school of Quinn Chapel and on coming to St. Paul connected himself with St. James A. M. Chapel and under the pasture of our late Horace S. Graves. The religious training he received from his sainted mother was his delight and he frequently spoke of it when he was endeavoring to assist some one to come to Christ. He was a believer in predestination and it is presumed he met his death calmly as he has always expressed the wish that his death would be an easy one. He was a very exemplary young man of good moral and business habits and besides being a letter carrier he was a counsellor Ms. Rolly Beard in conducting a shoe shining parlor, No. 127 E. Fifth street. His funeral was held at St. James A. M. E. church Thursday afternoon at 3:00 o'clock. The services were conducted by Rev. H. P. Jones, the pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church and Rev. G. W. Camp of Zion Presbyterian church. The deceased was well thought of by the people of the city and the church was comfortably filled with those who had come to pay a last tribute of respect. Special music was the choir and Miss Albrette bell sang as a solo, "Throw Out the Life Line." A number of very beautiful floral tributes surrounded his casket.

I will live a clean, decent, manly life; and will ever respect and defend virtue and honor of womanhood; and obey the just laws of the 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 cover my spirit or humiliate my soul; but will ever preserve the inner heart and conscience of heart and now self 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 own personal improvement; and will strive unceasingly to quicken the mind and sensibility: 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.

One to whom these cards were sent, if he really posed an interest in sign and mail and good common sense he would support to be blessed with and which was the cause of the card being sent should have accorded the sender the same consideration and courtesy he extended in sending the card, and complied with his request.

FRIENDS AND FELLOW CITIZENS: Owing to the fact that the Dixie Jubilee Singers have been engaged for the evening of Monday, September 14, the church and that no chance can be taken in their booking, the celebration of the Fifth Anniversary of the Emancipation to be given under auspices of the APPEAL will not occur on that date but will take place later in the month, perhaps the 30th. This will be the biggest for the preparations that are now mature to make the event the biggest and best ever. Everybody get ready for the time of their lives. N. B. If you haven't sent in your card as a patron do so NOW. MAN WITH TWO HEADS ON HIS SHOULDERS. Early this week a man was discovered in St. Paul who had two heads on his shoulders, one was his own and the other was his sweetheart. He was expressing her delight because he felt fitted to accompany him to the Fifth Anniversary of Emancipation September 22. Another one of the same kind was also discovered in Minneapolis.

So many persons in both St. Paul and Napoleapolis who enjoyed the entertainment which I have given in the years which I and some who were unable, for some of them, to give them, have importomed me to give another this year. Few people can imagine the amount of work and worry there is in connection with a first class entertainment; and I have always done before to undertake what I know by experience to be an "awful job," I will do as I have always done before—go into it with all the vim and push I can command, if I can be assured the good work. I will do it with me, I can do nothing by myself, the people made the other entertainment what they were, and it will be up to them to do so again. I will push the button if they will do the rest. A century year of our emancipation as it is to be celebrated all over the country we can celebrate it here under the auspices of THE APPEAL and thus two birds can be killed with one stone. If the people wish me to conduct an event, I can be made to教会 all, the others —they will be given an opportunity to show their desires in a few days as the ball will be started to rolling at once. Respectfully, J. Q. Adams. TAKE NOTICE. In connection with the celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of Emancipation it is the intention of the proprietor of THE APPEAL to issue a VIVIER EDITION, similar to those issues in the book, to a full account of the celebration, of prominent persons in the state and their homes and places of business, thus making it quite valuable to the race- and all persons interested or represented therein.

Miss Mildred Shull, one of Minneapolis' popular young ladies, on last Wednesday evening, entertained a number of her friends of the Twin Cities at the magnificent residence of her parents, 3512 Clinton avenue, in a manner that will long be remembered by those present. She had extended invitations for a social party and the guests had assembled and were having a good time. Just about half past nine the charming young hostess was herself treated to a pleasant surprise when her father, Mr. Glover Shull drove up in his seven passenger touring car (a recent acquisition) accompanied by four others of like capacity and invited the whole party to take a ride, to which no one objected. After a drive to the Lake of the Isles, Lake Calhoun, Lake Harriet, through the beautiful driveway of the city, the merry party returned to the house, where they found a sumptuous collation that had been prepared by Mrs. Harriet, assisted by Mesdames James Parnassi, W.C. Jeffrey, Little Misses Martinez Jeffrey, Corrine Parsons and Eddie May Shull served the refreshments in a very artistic manner. After the daity repast the evening was spent in dancing. The big screened porch with its cozy corners had been specially decorated and illuminated with large Japanese lanterns and offered a pleasant retreat between dances. Those present were: Miss Lola Cali- lamese, Deep Haven; Miss Ora Carter- of Topeka; Miss Alberta Guy, Law- rence, Kan.; Misses Hattie Pettis and Abreta Bell, St. Paul; Messrs. M.

The readings rendered by Mrs. Mary H. Moseley-Withers, of Columbia College of Expression, Chicago, under auspices of the No Independent Workers Club, Tuesday, August 12th, at Zion Baptist Church was a great hit. As usual, Writers portrayed to her large, intelligent and appreciative audience, the pictures of each selection in unmistakable expression. Also, the recently organized Climbers Delsarte Club by Mrs. Writers, captivated the audience with the calm repose and grace of gesticulations in the pantomime, "Old Black Joe." They were three times encored. This intelligent club of young women is composed of: Mesdames Blance Davis, M. M. Cheek, Minty Moseley, Lu Willie Bell, and Misses Thela and Naoma Crawford.

There was quite a number of St. Paul folks at the recent session of the Shriners in Indianapolis; Dr. O. D. Howard, A. D. Adams, Oliver Taylor, Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Lewis, Jose H. Sherwood, Mrs. Maud Hoage and Mrs. Cassie Melker, Mr. J. M. Morris and Mrs. F. A. Celestine were there to hold up the Minneapolis end. St. Paul can feel justly honored in having the presiding officer of the Daughters of Isis, the woman's branch of the Shrine. Mrs. Cassie Melker was chosen, at the meeting at Indianapolis, and read this Rite. Dr. Howard took further south to his old home in Kentucky and will attend the Medical Convention at Nashville. Mr. Taylor visited his former home at Peru, Ind. Mr. Sherwood was again defeated for the first place in the Imperial Council of the Shrine, but was unanimously chosen to succeed himself as second officer. Mr. Adams and Mr. Sherwood joined the St. Louis party in their special car, and spent a day in St. Louis; then to Kansas City for a day, from there they went to St. Joseph, Mo., to attend the Grand Chapter R. A. M., the Grand Commandery K. T., and the Grand Lodge of Masons. W. W. F. T. Chandler and Mr. Adams are members of the Grand Chapter. Mr. Chandler was elected Grand Lecturer and Mr. Adams was placed in an appointive office. Mr. Adams and Mr. Sherwood are members of the Grand Commandery. Mr. Adams was re-elected Junior Grand Warden and Mr. Sherwood was appointed to one of the best paying places in the G. C., St. Paul, as usual, being well cared for. Mrs. Geo. H. Moore is now in St. Joseph. Rev. Samson Brooks is now a Shriner and was with the St. Louis crowd. The feature of the large class which crossed the hot sands for the edification of the visiting Shriners was the encounter among its numbers of D. W. Caine, Gr. G. H. Knox, H. Knox of the Indianapolis Freeman. Nelson C. Crews was elected Grand Master of Missouri. The special guests of the Grand Lodge were John L. Thompson, Grand Master of Iowa; S. Joe Brown, Senior Grand Warden of the same state; E. J. Hawkins, Grand Master of Kansas; W. H. Franklin of Colorado; W. F. T. Chandler, Deputy Grand Master, and J. H. Sherwood, P. G. M. of Minnesota.
