SEEKING TO SAVE DOOMED WOMAN MAY ESCAPE THE GALLOWS. Various Organizations and Prominent Women In Connecticut Protest Against Extreme Penalty—She, With Aid of a Man, Brought About the Death of Her Husband. Hartford, Conn.—Aroused as they never have been before, Connecticut women of every walk in life are shouldering the burden of preventing the state from inflicting the death punishment upon Mrs. Bessle J. Wakefield, convicted as an accomplice in the murder of her husband. The unreliable vantage point wives and daughters of prominent men, suffragists and women posed to their sex exercising the right of franchise are attacking as disgrace. Photo by American Press Association. MRS. BESSIE WAKEFIELD. ful and unwarranted the carrying out of the court edict that Mrs. Wakefield shall be hanged. From every corner of the state the protests of the women are being voiced in the form of publicly circulated petitions to which many thousands of names are being signed daily, in publicity campaigns and in personal demands made upon members of the state board of pardons, legislators and jurists. Although Mrs. Wakefield still is in a cell in the prison death house, no word yet has been received by her indicating what will be the reason for her arrest. In Mrs. Wakefield dies for the murder of her husband, in the actual commission of which she was not accused of having taken a hand, she will be the first woman put to death in the state since 1780. Connecticut's lenency toward women who have been convicted of murder is explained in part by its efforts to tome for its unsavory record in Colonial days, when six women were burned or hanged as witches. In 1745 Elizabeth Shaw, a feeble minded girl, was hanged on her father's testimony that she had killed her infant child. She was executed after she had ridden a mile to the scaffold seated on her coffin and crying aloud to be saved. But since Connecticut became a state only one woman has been legally put to death within six months. Wakefield is twenty-four years old and is one of six children of Mr. and Mrs. Hiram Webster of Middlesbury, an uncultured, but honest, couple, who for years have eked a bare living out of a rocky farm. The daughter received practically no education, and she was. only seventeen when she was married to Wakefield, a Bristol farm hand. She became housekeeper for James Plew, a Middlebury farmer. Plew and Wakefield soon quarreled about her. Wakefield was found slain last June. Plew confessed the deed, but he and Mrs. Wakefield blamed each other for plotting the murder so who, a wife and child, or Mrs. Wakefield, who has two children, have been sentenced to be hanged on March 4, 1014. It has been stated in the Connecticut press that the vote of the board must be unanimous to commute a sentence, but the law was changed four years ago to make a favorable vote of five members effective. Mrs. Wakefield's children are with her parents. The boy, who is six years old, and the girl, who is four, know nothing of their parents' fate, and they daily say to their grandmother, "Mamma will be home today." The fact that many women have been convicted of single handed and premeditated murder in Connecticut in the last half century, and that all have Mature penalty, and that Mrs. Wakefield is innocent with a part in the actual killing of her husband, has incited a widespread revolt against the decree of the extreme penalty in her case. HOLDS COURT BY PHONE With Reservoir at Ear. Enter Acid With Receiver at Ear Judge Asks Questions and Gives Order Questions and Gives Order. Denver. - A tap of the balliff's gavel, followed by a loud "Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye!" brought a number of spectators to a halt in the first division of the district court. Court attaches assumed their accustomed places, and the first judgeless court ever held in Denver was in session. Judge J. E. Little, eighty miles away, was presiding. He was giving orders to the division clerk, Lynton Hubbard, over the long distance telephone from Colorado Springs. "Hello!" greeted his honor. "Is the court in session?" "The court is in session, your honor," replied Clerk Hubbard. replied Clerk Hubbard. "Take this message and enter it on the docker," said Judge Little. The judgment in the case of Charles McInerrant against Charles and Blanche M. Snipter is set aside. The finding of the court is that the judgment was not regularly obtained. You may adjourn now." The judgment against the Snyders, amounting to $1,730, was awarded by a jury over which Judge Little presided last May. The judgment was set aside on the showing made by Snyder that he had not been officially notified concerning the date of the trial and the case was allowed to go by default. NAME WOMEN IMMORTALS. Five Illustrated Females on List Prepared by Professors Matthew parsed by Professor Matthews. Chicago. — Professor Brander Matthews at the American Academy of Arts and Letters named five Americans who, he said, are eligible as "immortals." They are heirs to the research; Mary Wilkins Freeman, fiction; Mary Cassatt, painting, and Margaret Deland, fiction. "There are other women who might obviously be eligible," added Mr. Matthews, "but these five came first to my mind. "I want to put you right on the question of the admission of women to the 'immortals.' It has not been discussed at this session of the American Academy of Arts and Letters, because no woman has been proposed for membership. The subject has not come up officially for ten years, since the admission of Julia Ward Howe. I believe as women about whom there could be no question of worthiness, but I believe it would be advisable for them to start an 'immortals' of their own." 1,769,889,284 RODE ON NEW YORK CARS Greatness of City Illustrated by Statistics. New York—Professor Supan of Gotha, whose annual "Bevarkering der Erde" is accounted the authority on such statistics, last year estimated the population of the world at 1,623,300,000. During the year which ended June 30 the ground, underground and overground transportation lines of New York carried more passengers by 146,638,248 than this total, tables made by the public service commission giving the number of passengers as 1,769,889,284. By boroughs the traffic was distributed as follows: Manhattan, 1,112,908,689; Brooklyn, 521,233,913; Bronx, 714,711,453; Queens, 474,467,101; Richmond, 13,578,066. The year's increase for the city was 90,747,580, which is almost equal to the population of the United States. The figures for the subway and elevated lines in Manhattan are regarded by the engineers of the commission as being the most significant in the new tables. For the first time the subway carried more passengers than the elevator being 327,471,500 more than 100,000 each working day. The elevated lines carried 206,845,006, a gain of 2,574,165 while the subway gained 24,497,685. During the year ending June 30, 1912, the "L" exceeded the subway by 2,198,985. BRIDE'S WEIGHT IS 560. While Bridgroom only Tips the Scales at 133 Pounds. Davenport, Ia.—Hundreds attended the marriage of A. L. Woollett, weight 133 pounds, of Ornsby. Wis. and Miss Ama Gene Bare, weight 560 pounds, of Olympia. Wash. the bride being the heaviest woman in the west. Miss Bergina Delhoyo was bridesmaid, while acting as best man was James Boyd. Both contracting parties are with a carnival company, but have been acquainted for sixteen years. They attended school together. The ceremony was performed by Deputy Treasurer C. C. Gibson, formerly a minister of the Church of Christ. A handsome silver service was given to the bride by members of the carnival company following the marriage. Rat Short Circuits Current. Argos, Ind.—The charred body of a rat explained the reason for the sudden going out of electric lights here. Argos gets its current from Rochester, south, in Fulton county, and lights there were affected. The rat's body formed a short circuit that played havoc with the lighting system. THE APPEAL. IN THE WAY OF EDUCATION. Annual Report of President of Columbia University Laments Fact That Nation Is Flooded With Poor Reading Matter—Asserts That Fewer and Better Books Are Sadly Needed. New York—Too much—slovenly reading matter stends in the way of education and enlightenment," says Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler in his yearly report as president of Columbia university. "In no field of human interest," says Dr. Butler, speaking of the harm of worthless books, "is the substitution of quantity for quality more fraught with damage and disorder than in that of reading. The builders of the constitution and the great lawyers of the colonial period knew but few books, but the books they knew were first rate books, and they knew them well. "Such a task as that which Gibbon set himself over a century ago would be impossible today, even for a syndicate of Gibbons. There are too many books now to enable another history of the decline and fall of the Roman empire to be composed. "Productivity of the highest type is checked by the excess of books and of physical apparatus. We could get along well with far fewer books and far less apparatus, and we should be likely to get more ideas and a higher type of human being. The universities of the world search restlessly for truth, but Photo by American Press Association. DR. NICHOLAS MURRAY BUTLER. too often they overlook the indubitable which lies at their feet." Gifts to Columbia during the year aggregated $1,605,935. The university showed a deficit of $63,821 for the year. One striking feature brought out by the report is what President Butler calls "the literally stupendous change in the relations between the university and the public which has been brought about since the reorganization of 1890 and the prosecution of the policies of expansion and new activity then formulated." This change is amply demonstrated by the fact that the gifts received by Columbia from 1754, 1890, period of 188 years, did not exceed $200,000. During the administration of President Low (1890-1901) the sum of $4,400,000 was received by the institutions that make up Columbia university, and during the administration of President Butler $20,300,000 has been added by gift from several hundred different persons. CITY CHRISTMAS TREE. Chicago to Have One With Glistening Ice and Presents. Chicago.—Children of the street here are to have a municipal Christmas tree for the first time this year. The tree is to stand in Grant park, facing the lake front, and is to be placed in position long enough before the holidays so that it can be sprayed with water and that make a spire of glistening ice. According to plans of the Municipal Christmas Tree association, the lake front is to be a blaze of light during the entire week. DISMEMBER LIVING MAN. Sons-in-law Suspected of Atrocious Crime In Spain. Badajoz, Spain.—The police have discovered in a vacant lot the dismembered body of Senior Higuera Real, who disappeared and for whom a general alarm had been issued. The theory that he was killed by his son, was supported by the motive for the crime, is held by the police. The physicians assert that the dismemberment of the body had begun when the man was yet alive. Daniels Wants Number of Chaplaine Increased Newport Newa, Va. - Neglect of religion by the United States in its navy is a reproach to the republic. Secretary Daniels declared here in an address before the United Brotherhood of Men's Bible Classes. The secretary announced that he would ask congress immediately to provide chaplains and welfare secretaries proportionate to the navy personnel. Twenty-four chaplains, he said, are all that the government now provides to look after the religious welfare of the 67,000 men, the number of chaplains in the 67,000 men has been increased since 1842, when the navy numbered only 12,000 men. The secretary added that more than seventy-five important ships in the navy have no religious leader attached, while the marine corps, with an emilition of 10,226 men, has not a single chaplain to look after the spiritual development of its personnel. CHILDREN WORK IN MILLS. 10.4 Per Cent of Employees in Cotton Mills Under Sixteen Years. Old. Washington. Of the 387,771 persons employed in the cotton goods industry in 1909 in the United States, 39,306, or 10.4 per cent, were children under sixteen years of age and half of them, according to a final report of the census bureau. Alabama, North and South Carolina employ 19 per cent of children and Massachusetts 5.7 per cent. These children worked on an average of from fifty-four to sixty hours a week. The 1,234 establishments in the industry produced $28,393,818 worth of goods. The cost of materials totaled $52,907,070, and the total paid in salaries and wages was $147,090,903. There was an increase of the previous census of 25.5 per cent in the number of plants, and the total capital invested in the industry in 1909 was $522,237,529, an increase of 76 per cent over 1890. MODERN RIP AWAKES FROM 9 YEARS' SLEEP Tarrytown, N. Y.—A living Rip Van Winkle, awakening from nine years of oblivion to find old friends dead and his children grown to manhood, walks, bewildered, in the streets of his home town, in that very Sleepy Hollow country of which Irving, author of Rip, wrote many tales. He is Hyman Levy, long a leading merchant in Tarrytown before the "sleep" of years began. It was a mental cloud that shrouded him and made him almost as one dead to his friends. With tootting step, but clear seeing eyes, he has come slowly back from the mysterious wilderness of lost memory. He sees new faces that are somehow old—the faces of the children who are men and women now. He seeks the haunts of former friends to find them held by strangers. Many that he knew are now but names upon the gravestones in Sleepy Hollow cemetery. But Levy's is not a mournful awakening. There are scores of his old crones alive and rejoicing in his recovery. He remembers them all. He remembers everything that happened up to nine years ago. These nine years are an utter blank. At the height of his business career he worried so much over a scratch on his head, which was inflicted that he became ill. He recovered physically made himself a hermit in his home. When he went out, at long intervals, he passed his friends without recognition. PRISONERS TO KEEP NAMES. Number System and Lettered Uni- forms Abolished at Atlanta Atlanta, Ga.—As a result of the efforts of Warden Moyer, which have met with the approval of the department of justice, prisoners at the Atlanta penitentiary bereft will be known by names instead of numbers, and their uniforms no longer will bear the letters "U. S. P." branding them as United States prisoners. Announcement of this radical departure from prison custom was made by Good Words, the paper which is offered to prisoners in the district court. While each prisoner's clothing will bear his registration number, it will be for identification only and will be concealed from sight. REVEALS SECRET MARRIAGE Mrs. Phillips of New York Was Wed died Last December. Wilmington, Del.-Mrs. Edith Sloson Phillips of 102 West Forty-first street, New York, called the Rev. George L. Wolfe by telephone and asked him to announce her marriage on Dec. 18 to wallace B. Phillips. The couple were wedded here by Mr. Wolfe. "Don't your marriage published at the time?" the preacher asked. "No," was the answer. The women would not give her reason for desiring the belated announcement. She said her husband was from Greensboro, N. C. Defective Page GREAT NEED IS A CONTAINER With Finding of Safe and Light Box Both Producer and Consumer Would Be Greatly Benefited—Chief of Bureau of Animal Industry Has Long Been Seeking Such a Device. Washington—How to get the eggs from the farmer or the poultryman to the consumer without the employment of the middleman is the problem that the division of animal husbandry of the bureau of animal industry has sought to solve. It has suggested, "Cut out the middleman and bring the producer and the consumer together through the parcel post." But Dr. A. D. Melvin, chief of the bureau, says that this is easier said than done. The softness of the eggshell is the great obstacle in the way. No container that exactly fills the bill has been found. If the container is secure it weighs too much; if light enough it is not secure. Dr. Melvin and associates have been experimenting for months to find the proper container for mailing eggs. A hen that lays every day in the year would be worth her weight in gold. There were laid in the United States last year 1,700,000,000 dozen eggs, worth $350,000,000. The price of eggs has gradually increased for twenty years. In 1900 New York paid for the average best fresh eggs from 12 to 29 cents. In 1912 the figures were 20% to 60 cents. At the same time New York has been consuming more eggs. Photo by American Press Association. each succeeding year. In 1900 2,799, 737 cases of eggs were received in New York; last year the number increased to 4,723,558. In 1891 Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati, Milwaukee, New York, St. Louis and San Francisco received 5,040,888 cases of eggs, and last year 13,696,401. Within the last ten or fifteen years there has been a decided improvement of the quality of eggs and in the methods of handling them. The old custom of selling eggs by the dozen has been discarded, and now the producer disposes of his eggs by the pound. This has improved the character of the egg. "The quickest way to arouse a desire in the producer to raise better chickens and supply better eggs is to show him that good quality poultry and eggs are worth more than those of poor quality," said H. C. Pierce of the food research laboratory of the bureau of chemistry. In the southern states this has been done. At one time the North Carolina egg was considered the poorest on the market; the meat was lean. When the producers found that fat eggs weighed more than poor ones they began to better care of their husbands and get better eggs. Soon North Carolina eggs ranked with Tennessee and Kentucky eggs. Mr. Pierce says that $45,000,000 worth of eggs are lost annually in this country between the producer and the consumer. "In marketing eggs there is an enormous loss," said Mr. Pierce. "Much of this is preventable. While this loss falls upon all who handle eggs, it is borne chiefly by the producer and the consumer. The producers' loss, caused by a decrease in price, under present conditions represents that due to spoilage or poor quality. The consumers' loss due to a curtailed supply because of poor quality or a total loss; hence the consumer has to pay higher prices for those that finally reach him. "While these losses are increased at all stages of handling by the producer, the country storekeeper, the produce dealer, the railroad, the commission man and jobber, the retailer, the greatest preventable loss occurs before the produce dealer obtains the goods that is, while the eggs are still on the shelf, the small country storekeeper who takes eggs in exchange for supplies." THE APPEAL STEADILY GAINS BECAUSE: 4-It is the organ of ALL Afro-Americans 5-It is not controlled by any ring or elique 8-It asks no support but the people's GEM MESSAGE BY PIGEON. Carrier Flies From Vessel to Shore, Valuable Being Found. Philadelphia—When she discovered that she had left valuable jewelry in a bag at a hotel Mrs. Daniel H. Ferguson, on the British steamer Glencoe, outside the Delaware cape, liberated a carrier pigeon, which returned to the home cote on the Ferguson farm, Fairview, at Mendenhall, Pa., with a message telling of the loss. The hotel was communicated with, and the jewelry was obtained and put in the office safe. Mr. and Mrs. Ferguson started for New Castle, New Brunswick, and left one bag to be stored in the baggage room of the hotel until their return. Through a mistake the jewel box was broken. The pigeon that carried the message was being taken with others by Mr. Ferguson to friends in New Brunswick. MARRIED BY PHONE Ohio Magistrate Accommodates Eager Young Couple. Dayton, O.—"Do you. Louis Mozel=" "Number, please."—"Take Florence Igou"—"They don't answer"—"Oh, central, please get off the line. We're trying to get married." Louis Mozel and Florence Igou had their troubles getting married over the telephone here, but Dan Cupid finally got the phone plugs in their proper places on the switchboard, and Squire Koehne was able to finish the ceremony. Mozel and Miss Igou had found two magistrates absent from their offices, and when they reached the office of Koehne, only to find him gone, they located him at a construction camp three miles from the city, and he readily consented to the tie the knot by phone. PACIFIC DRYDOCK. Work to Be Resumed Shortly Is Opinion In Washington, Washington.—Work upon the giant drydock at Pearl Harbor, the site of the great naval base the United States is establishing in the Pacific, probably will be resumed in the near future. Secretary of the Navy Daniels announced that Alfred Noble of New York, the engineering specialist retained to render an opinion as to the advisability of going ahead with the construction of the dock, has reported that the project is quite feasible. The Pearl Harbor drydock is to cost several million dollars, according to estimates. Work on the dock was well advanced when the coral foundation of the dock yielded to water pressure from below and caused an upheaval of the floor and walls, practically ruining all that had been done. CONDEMNED TO DIE, CONDUCTS BUSINESS Atlanta, Ga.-Leo M. Frank, sentenced to October 10 for the murder of Mary Phagan, continues to manage in jail the affairs of the National Pencil company, of which he was superintendent and at whose plant the girl was killed. However, he will not be hanged Oct. 10 because the motion for a new trial will be heard, and the decision is adverse the case will be carried to the supreme court. It may be a year before his fate is definitely determined. His wife has visited him daily since the end of the trial and has assisted him in going over the mass of testimony. When at the trial Solicitor Dorsey declared she had never gone to the station to see him and cited the fact that Frank as an indication that she knew Frank was guilty she leaned forward in an exerted posture but under the law she could not testify. She is determined in the event of a new trial—and she is condense one is coming—to in some way show that she never for a moment doubted her husband's innocence. Miss Rea Franklin, his mother, joined in the jail conferences for awhile, but finally she was obliged to return to Brooklyn, where her aged husband is critically ill. She expects to return when argument is made for a new trial before Judge Roun. Solicitor Dorsey is directing the work of detectives who are trying to find new evidence to strengthen the case of the state should a new trial be ordered. TRUST ACTION NEXT SESSION. President Then Will Recommend Strengthening of Sherman Law. Washington.—There will be no antitrust legislation at this extra session of congress, it was stated on the highest authority. President Wilson will recommend to congress soon after the beginning of the regular session in December the strengthening of the Sherman law. Between now and then he and his advisers will go over the Sherman law, dig into the history of its operation and make a careful study of what has been done with the law and its effect on business. It became known that the president will have before him the anti-trust laws of New Jersey, known as "the seven sisters" acts enacted during the last year of Mr. Wilson's administration as governor of that state. $2.40 PER YEAR. PRINCE KATSURA'S BRAIN HEAVY ONE Comparison of That of Japanese Statesman and Others. TOTAL WEIGHT 1,600 GRAMS Brain of Average Man Weighs Fifty Ounces—Imbeiles’ Brains Very Heavy—Japanese Died of Cancer and Willed His Body to Scientists For Examination and Experiment. Tokyo—Dr. Nagayo's examination of the body of the late Prince Katsura discloses that the brain of that great Japanese statesman, who died Oct. 10, weighed slightly more than 1,600 grams. This is about 300 grams heavier than the brain of an average man. The Katsura brain weighed about 51.44 ounces. It was a little lighter than that of Bismarck. The examination by Dr. Nagayo showed that Prince Katsura died of cancer, which had spread from his stomach to his liver. He was president of a Japanese society devoted to the PRINCE KATSURA. study of cancer, and he was dissected in accordance with his own request. The widow was present at the post-mortem. The surgeons addressed the spirit of the dead prince before and after the operation. The brain weights of famous men have been as follows: Turgleien, Russian novelist, seventy-one ounces. Dr. Abercrombie, Scotch physician, sixty-two ounces. General B. F. Butler, American soldier, sixty-two ounces. Thackeray, novelist; Cuvier, naturalist; Jeffreys, English judge, fifty-four to fifty-eight and six-tenth ounces. Agassiz, American naturalist, fifty to fifty-three and six-tenth ounces. Average man (estimated by Dr. Austin Flint of New York in his "Physiology"), fifty and two-tenth ounces. Average boy of seven, forty-five and nine-tenths ounces. Leon Gambetta, great French statesman, forty and nine-tenths ounces. A boy of seventy ounces. One such, a Russian had a brain of seventy-eight ounces. BONDS OF RECLUSE FOUND. Are Contained in Small Safe in the Rear of Pawshen. Fort Scott, Kan.-More than $60,000 in government bonds and other securities was found in the small room of a pawshen in the negro district of this city, where Thomas Lahey, a recluse, lived many years. Lahey dropped dead the other day. He was known to own thirty-three cheap dwellings and had no patience with the talk of the high cost of living, boasting that he was living on $1.50 a week. His brother, John Lahey of Arma, Kan., retained a lawyer and together they broke into the safe. Another brother of Lahey lives somewhere in California, and three sisters, whose addresses are unknown, lived in Pennsylvania when last heard from. Search is now being made for a large amount of gold Lahey is supposed to have boarded. LOST HORSE TURNS WILD. Animal Astray In the Woods For Months Shy as a Deer. Ishpengin, Mich.-Clarence Dawson and Bert Walker, Ishpengin men, have recovered a horse that had broken away from them in the wilderness twenty miles from the city early last spring, when they were on a fishing trip. A homesteader saw the horse a few days ago and notified the owners. The horse was as wild as a deer and was coached to the river. The men had never expected to see the animal again. They believed it had been deceived by wolves or had strayed many miles from the district.

Recently at the Church of England Congress at Southampton, Sir Sidney Olivier, who was governor of Jamafca from 1907 to the end of 1912, put for- ward the claim that no solution of the American color question was possible except by a resolute disclaimer of the color line and the race differention theory. Sir Sidney Olivier certainly knows what he is talking about. In the Island of Jamaica, where he was gov- jernor for five years, there are about 800,000 colored people and only 20,000 whites and yet there 1s absolutely no friction between the races. Jamatea 1s a British colony and the govern- ment 1s Just, Colored men enjoy ev- ery clvil and politcal right which white men have and there is no color line. Among other things Sir Sidney sald: “My study and comparison, of con- ditions in the United States and the West Indies,” he sald, “haa brought ‘me to that conclusion. American and colonial politicians and public"men are not Exeter Hall abolitionists nor evangelical Christian missionaries. 1 o not expect them to adopt the meth- ods of missionaries, nor do I sympa- thize with all thelr programmes. , But it cannot be ignored that it happened ‘that the faiths of the men who lata the foundations for the peaceful de- ‘velopment of the mixed community in |Jamaica were democratic and human- itarian and, above all, uncompromis- ingly Christian. “Were race differentiation held to it must increase civil discord. When the balance of numbers fs as it is in the South in America {t must tend to foster obscure preparations for clvil war and rebellion. If statesmen and citizens face in the contrary direction T do not say that they will attain im- mediately civil peace, but I am conf dent that they will be traveling the only road toward it, “I do not suggest that race does not greatly affect facilities for combina- tion between humans in healthy national life, but race difference is only one of many schfsmatic agencies, The solution of the difficulty involves discipline for the white man as well as the black.” BRAVE BISHOP WALTERS. Bishop Alexander Walters of the A. M. B. Z church, 9 prominent Afro. American leader in the Democratic Party, in an open letter flatly denies that he ever endorsed segregation in any shape or form, ‘He says that the statement that he favored an all-colored Register of the ‘Treasury office is. absolutely false, And he tells his defamers to write to Secretary McAdoo and ask him about the matter. ‘The last paragraph in his statement is strong: “I say once and for all that I have never endorsed segregation in any de partment and never will.

He repays his contempt in kind. z ‘A man who Js saturated with Amer fean race prejudice is a very poor specimen of Christianity and is not needed by the natives.

Mc Cracken, private secretary to Hon, F C, Stevens, M. C., from the St, Paul, Minn, district Tt is he that tarnish ed the material to Mr. Lorence o the Boston Advertiser.” A musical éntertainment a little out ot the ordinary was furnished at Pil- grim Baptist church last Thursday evening. The drawing card- was the ‘Asaph Male Chorus, consisting of 4 men from the Firat Swedish Baptist church, In which was included the ‘Apollo Quartette: ‘The singing of these gentlemen was most pleasing to the rather small audience that made up in appreciative applause thelr lack in numbers.

She is the guest of Mrs. H. C. Richardson. She was the guest at dinner last Sunday of Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Adams, St. Paul. Mr. and Mrs. Glover Shull on Friday evening of last week gave a birthday party for their younger daughter Miss Edna. About 40 of the young folks and a few of their mothers were present and all had a splendid time. They played many games and danced and feasted. One of the games played was "placing the tail on the donkey." Ruth Charleston of St. Paul won first, and Olivia Odette Johnson of Minneapolis got the booby. Master Morris Gibbs of Minneapolis captured the first prize for the boys and Master H. Petticord of St. Paul was awarded the booby. The charming little hostess was the recipient of a large number of nice presents. There was one unfortunate occurrence. A lot of individual ice creams consisting of animals, fruit, flowers, etc., had been provided but some of the festivities were going on some old boys stole the individual creams. However, other creams were provided that fully made up in quantity if not in quality that of which they had been deprived. The occasion was very much enjoyed by all present. COMMENTS OF CONTEMPORAR IES AND OTHERS. On the Souvenir Edition issued by THE APPEAL Oct. 25th, In commemoration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of Emancipation. In commemoration of the fiftieth anniversary of the issuance of the emancipation proclamation, the St. Paul Appeal has produced a special number which is highly creditable to its editor, John Q. Adams. Moreover it is an index of the progress and development of the race in whose interest Mr. Adams has labored long and patiently in St. Paul. Fifty years ago such an achievement would have been impossible. Upon the conditions which made such an edition possible and upon the number itself, we congratulate its enterprising editor—St. Paul Pioneer Press. Mr. J. Q. Adams, City. My Dear Mr. Adams: I just received a copy of THE APPEAL, issued as a commemorative edition of the fiftieth anniversary of the penning of the emancipation proclamation and the whole paper is so credible to the cause, as well as to the publisher, that I am sending you my hearty congratulations. The colored people of the Twin Cities, as well as of the entire northwest, have reason to feel proud of THE APPEAL and its editorial staff. November 7, 1913. My Dear Mr. Adams:— The special edition which you issued on October 25th, in commemoration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, is a creditable edition indeed—in fact the writer, having seen many special editions, considers this as good a one he has ever had the pleasure of examining. The illustrations are particularly fine and you certainly deserve a great deal of commendation for this splendid edition. Very truly yours, George Sorenson, Manager of St. Paul Office American Press Association. PROGRESS OF ST. PAUL AFRO-AMERICANS SHOWN. Special Edition of The Appeal a Compliment to Development of Race. A splendid illustrated special edition of THE APPEAL, the oldest and best known weekly paper in the Northwest, devoted to the interests of the colored race, appeared this week in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the issuance by Pres. Abraham Lincoln of his emancipation proclamation. The issue reflects great credit upon its publisher and editor, J. Q. Adams, who is one of the earliest and best known Afro-Americans in St. Paul and one who has ever stood for the best interests of his race. The "emancipation proclamation" number of THE APPEAL contains the address of Rev. A. J. Carey, D. D., Ph. D., Chicago, delivered at the recent Perry centennial, in which he told of the 109 dainless colored heroes who fought in the famous naval battles Lake Erie. Best known cuts out the prominent colored business and professional men of St. Paul and Minneapolis and of the residences and business houses of a number of others—St. Paul Daily News. The Emancipation number of the St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minn., Appeal, was a very interesting issue and showed in a most impressive manner the progressiveness of the colored citizens of the Twin Cities. Editor J. Q. Adams deserves much praise for presenting to the entire country the beautiful homes, clubs and places of business owned by the Negroes of his city, and also the cuts of the more progressive mayor citizens. It will be interesting to Savannah to learn that at the celebration, whose success was probably primarily due to the publicity which THE APPEAL gave the matter, Mr. W. T. Mitchell, a native of this city, who used to be plain "Mitch," was among the members of one of the prominent committees that had charge of the celebration. The Tribune congratulates THE APPEAL upon this interesting number.—Savannah Tribune. The Emancipation number of "The Appeal," published jointly at St. Paul and Minneapolis, displayed much energy and more brain on the part of our good friend, Editor J. Q. Adams. We congratulate him and we have placed a copy in our library, to be used as a work of reference and study. —The Informer, Detroit, Mich. The Appeal, of Minneapolis and St. Paul, J. Q. Adams, Editor, arrived at our office this week. It was a special edition, devoted to the Half Century Emancipation Celebration. It was a magnificent product, a triumph of newspaper art and we regret that our many subscribers had not the opportunity of seeing what great accomplishments are being achieved by our people in the newspaper world. We congratulate the editor and staff of "The Appeal."—The Union, Cincinnati, O. We are in receipt of a copy of the recent souvenir edition of the St. Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota, Appeal, and we can truthfully say that it is a fine commentary on the general newspaper ability of its editor and publisher, Mr. John Q. Adams. From a literary, lithographic and mechanical standpoint this issue of The Appeal claims a distinctive place in Negro newspaperdom, and stamps it as a publication clearly abreast of the times.—The Pioneer Press, Martinsburg, W. Va. This week the St. Paul, Minnesota, Appeal, a journal of many years' standing in the northwest, got out a special illustrated number last week containing the likenesses of some of the Twin City's good looking citizens, also the cuts of their business enterprises, both interior and exterior, and the cuts of their beautiful homes, which was truly a fine issue from every viewpoint. The Bystander extends congratulations, Bro. Adams, upon the production of such a fine issue.-Iowa Bystander. MRS. MILLIE ALEXANDER The Hair Manufacturer and Hair Dresser in St Paul.
