WHEN IS MIXED BLOOD INDIAN? Many perplexing questions have propounded to government experts, but they are all mere incidents to the puzzle now before the Supreme Court of the United States. It is: “When is a mixed-blood Indian?” It is the contention of the govern. ment that the term mixed-blood can be applied only to those Indians who possess a quantity of white blood amounting to one-half or more, ‘This question arises over the term “mixed-blood” Indians, as employed in the Clapp amendment to the Indian appropriation ‘bill of 1906, removing restrictions as to sale, incumbrance and taxation of the allotments. ‘The circuit court of appeals for the Righth circuit held that every Indian who had an admixture of other than Indian blood, however small, is a mixed-blood, In the three cases de- cided it was stipulated that one of the Indians had one-eighth white blood another one-sixteenth, and the other one-thirty-second, so the courtsdis missed the cases. The Department o Justice then appealed the case to the Supreme Court. By the way, the question: What i a Negro? has never been decided 03 the Supreme Court and it would prob ably be as interesting as the Indiar case. THE APPEAL has always con tended that Negro is not a propel racial designation for Americans o African descent. To hear men wh are not more than one-thirty-secon ‘Negro yelling themselves hoarse abou being “Negroes” presumably for thi purpose of making themselves popula: with black men has always seeme; very ludicrous, Afro-American wil cover all the various admixtures. “GROWTH OF IDEALISM.” “Idealism is making rapid growth in America despite the commercialism of the age” is the opinion of Dr. J. 8. Lyons, of Louisville, Ky., moderator of the Presbyterian Assembly, of the ‘United States. “Americans are be- PROTEST AGAINST WRONG. To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust; the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our last disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. Ella Wheeler Wilcox. ginning to look at things from a moral standpoint instead of a material one America is the big brother of other nations.” ‘This is a speciman of the loud noise prominent men are handing out to the people. BUT IS IT TRUE? Take for instance, the growth of “idealism” in Louisville, the home ot Dr, Lyons. There is no question about the increase of race prejudice since the editor lived there thirty years ago Even ten years ago who would have dreamed that in 1914 there would be sz agitation for the formation of a ghetto for Afro-American, but it is a fact. If there has been any growth of idealism in this country the Afro American has been left out of the equation. The “idealism” of the great mass of the Caucasians seems to be: What can be done to retard the real progress of my brother of darker hue? How can we humiliate and dégrade the race by discriminating laws? How can we prevent him from exercising the rights of a free man? How can we use the Christian religion to de grade the race? ‘True idealism, true morality would abolish Kentucky's infamous color line laws, jimcrow cars and ghettos. If the Caucasian Christians of Ken- tucky are doing anything to abolish the color line we have not heard of it. SPREAD OF MOHAMMEDANISM. Every true Christian should be glad to learn of the remarkable growth of Mohammedanism. Among the colored peoples of the world it is outstripping Christianity. ‘This may seem a queer statement but it 4s true, Christianity Is so de cadent in America today that there are few real Christians except Afro Americans. The souls of American Caucasians have been so warped by the infamous color prejudice rampant in this coun- try that in the majority of cases they are not true followers of the Nazarene. Before the awful color line American Christianity stands paralyzed and dumb. * There are today 5,000,000 more Mos lems than Christians in the British empire. One-seventh of the whole human race is Mohammedan and the proportion is not at a standstill; it is increasing yearly. In Asia and Africa more natives are becoming Moham- medans every year than are turning to Christianity. Today nearly all of the sacred places named in the Bible are under Mohammedan rule. ‘There is a reason why the colored races cling to the religion of Moham- med. It is a religion in which there is no color line. The brotherhood of man is not a mere figure of speech as it is in Christianity, but a living reat: ity. The orientals are too shrewd to be caught in any large numbers by a jimerow religion, for that is what it means when Caucasian Christianity gets them into its clutches. ‘The conquest of Colored America for Mohammedanism has not yet begun, but it is coming some day, THE AP. PEAL believes and predicts and the brotherhood religion will spread like wildfire. FAVORABLE TO TERRELL. ‘The Senate Judiciary Committee has favorably reported the nomination of Robert H. Terrell to be Judge of the Municipal Court of the District of Columbia, This was done only after a long and heated discussion of the matter. The opposition to Judge Terrell was made entirely on the ground of race, for the members of the committee admitted that seldom had an appointee received better recommendations than had Judge Terrell. ‘The sub-committee to which the Terrell nomination had been, re- ferred, consisted of Senators Shields of Tennessee, Fletcher of Florida and Root of New York. Senators Shields and Fletcher opposed Judge Terrell’s confirmation and Senator Root favored it, ‘The matter was finally decided in RACE PREJUDICE. q I am convinced myself that there is no more evil thing in this present world than Race Pre- judice; none at all. I write deliberately—it is the worst single thing in life now. It justifies and holds together more baseness, cruelty and abomination than any other sort of error in the world. Through its body runs the black blood of coarse lust, suspicion, jealousy and persecu- tion and all the darkest poisons of the human soul. —H. G. Wells in N. Y. Independent. sie. ce sscommelitees | Aliens the committee has reported the nomina- tion of Judge Terrell favorably, the fight against his confirmation has just begun. Senator Vardaman of Mis. sissippi, who has announced that he will oppose with all his strength the confirmation of any Afro-American to high office, will lead the opposition to the: confirmation and he will have strong support from other Southern Senators. It is possible that the nomination may be held up for months. : JEFF DAVIS IN THE CAPITOL. | A statue of Jeff Davis, the arch traitor who tried to disrupt the Union in order that human slavery should be preserved and extended, 1s soon to be added to the collection in Statuary Hall in the Capitol’ at Washington. ‘The statue will be a contribution to the Nation from the state of Missis: sippl. ‘The more or loss grand old Common- wealth of Mississippi has contributed the arch demagogue Vardaman who represents the state in the United States Senate, because its Afro-Amer. fean citizens ‘have been robbed of their votes. Mississippi has also contributed to the world the greatest number of lynchings which have taken place in any state in the Union. The unlaw- fal and unjustifiable slaughter of Afro: Americans has made Mississippi a veritable shambles. ‘Whither are we drifting? What te to be the end of a Nation which per- mite its citizens to be murdered by mobs; accepts as Senators men who openly boast in the Senate Chambér of the murder of their fellows; a Na- tion which attempts to degrade some of its citizenry by discriminatory laws and allows the segregation as lepers of men and women who have won their places after severe testy and in spite of the prejudice against them? A statue of Jeff Davis in the Capitol at Washington! God preserve our Nation! ALWAYS RIGHT TO PROTEST. A number of colored newspapermen met recently in Nashville, Tenn., and among other things. decided not) to protest against segregation “owing to the changing attitude of the Southern whites.” ‘The attitude is undoubtedly chang- ing but it is for the worse. There were more lynchings in 1913 than in 1912; the unjust franchise laws are still in fores; segregation in the gov- ernment service is a matter of fact; ghettos are being established in many Southern cities; the Jimcrow car is still running; discriminating laws are being enacted by “our good friends” in the Southern legislatures. Thou: sands of wrongs are being done every day. THE APPEAL believes that the newspapermen have made a very ser fous mistake in this the greatest crisis since the civil war.’ We should al- ways protest against wrong. It is not necessary to use violent or abusive language; a protest may be couched in courteous terms. ‘The principal mission of the colored press is to afd in righting the wrongs of the race. If it fails to do this there is really no excuse for its ex istence. ' WORK FOR VARDAMAN AND SMITH. Investigation of the history and hab- its of the parasites of the cotton boll weevil in a more comprehensive way than ever is proposed by Secretary Houston of the Department of Agri- culture. He wants more funds appro- priated with which to employ experts. Here is an excellent opportunity for Senators Vardaman and Hoax Smith and Representatives Heflin of Alabama and Clark of Florida to em- ploy their talents. Instead of spend- fag their time in ‘vilitying Afro-amer fean citisens over whose backs they ‘have illegally climbed into power they might make speeches in Congress in favor of an appropriation to eliminate the boll weevil. This would really aid the South. “fee LILES oF EASTER cm . ay Zp J Wn dal! ms y Se LO “BLATZ” Val Blatz Brewing Company or TENE STYLE Minneapolis Branch PRIVATE STOCK 1416 SIXTH ST. SOUTH “CHRIST IS RISEN"—A JOY- US EASTER MESSAGE. Easter is the queen of festi- vals. It is the commemoration of supreme historic fact, the rev- elation of a supreme ‘religious truth, the inspiration of a su- preme spiritual consolation, the force of a supreme moral mo- tive. Of Christ’s resurrection the apostles, the early disciples, were witnesses. His death upon the cross had filled them with anguish and despair. But when the news on that first bright Kas- ter morning spread from lip to Up, “The Lord hath risen, in- deed, and appeared unto Peter,” then was their sorrow turned into a rapture of joy. The tu- multuous notes of that great Easter chorale have rolled through all after ages their un- speakable gladness. That resur- rection, that triumph over death, has changed all the destinies and. brightened all the life of mankind throughout the ‘world during the nineteen centuries which since have passed.—Dean Fairar.

Not a Frisky Young Animal, but One with a Very Ancient History. |Next to the Easter eggs the bunny ‘maintains its place as the star Easter novelty. ‘To find out just how the bun- ny came to be associated with aster ‘one looks away back to antiquity, for the hare or rabbit has had unusual significance to many peoples. In ancient mythology the hare’s con- nection with the moon was well estab- Mshed. Hindu tradition tells us that while Indra was dying of hunger the hare threw himself into the fire in or- der that the god might be provided with a meal, | For this sacrifice he was translated to the moon by the grateful Indra., In Buddhist legend we again find him ‘sac- rificing himself in order to provide food for the hungry. Here again he was translated to the moon, where the Hin- dus, Japanese and Chinese still affect to see him in the well known spots on the disk.’ ‘The Chinese stil, at thelr great moon festival of the Yueping, exchange cakes of various sizes with relatives and friends upon which are stamped fg- tures: of heres crouching among the ‘trees. - In Norse mythology we bad bunny Aguring as the train bearer and light bearer of Freyja, the goddess of the moon, and also identified with the Ro- man goddess Venus, whose festival was held at the beginning of April. Breyja has also been identified with the Anglian goddess Hostre or Ostara, trom whose name we derive our pres- ent term of Easter. ‘Ancient records will show that in the seventeenth century no Englishman thought bis feast complete unless on Easter day he ate a fine big bare killed for the occasion, The hare by reason of its connection with the moon became in a sense the herald of a new life, the springtide. Brom these several causes it has come to be associated with the anniversary of Christ's resurrection, and thousands -of children too young to appreciate the blessed traths that lie at the base of the faith will nevertheless rejoice over novelties in Easter bunnies. # GRAND EASTER © MUSIGALE AND PROMENADE ENTERTAINMENT BANNER CLUB OF MARS LODGE NO. 2202 SS fae 5 a ress AMON Sree ; ‘ ap Haster Monday Bveg, Apel 13 PeCHIDA HALL COR.

Nowhere in all the world ts there so cosmopolitan an Easter gathering. -Nowhere else is Haster celebrated with such impressive pomp and cere monial. Jerusalem is the historic clty im which Christ's spiritual embassy be- gan. All the churches of Jerusalem are crowded at Easter, the crowning glory of the religious year. | In Roumania, Christian women dis- tribute cakes marked with the symbol of the cross in the prisons, Sliver clarions herald the dawn of Baster in Berlin, blown’ by trumpet ers in the imperial palace tower. Full dress uniform is the order of the day, and the German emperor and empress attend public services.

The Happy Consummation of a Love Romance of School Days at Wilberforce University. The happy consummation of "Love's Young Dream" that started at Wilberforce (Ohio) University some time ago, was the beautiful home wedding of Mr. Warner Seltzer of Trinity, Texas, and Miss Lucille Wheelid, the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. L. Wheelid, at their residence, 418 Rondo street, last Tuesday evening. The house was profusely and beautifully decorated, the color scheme being green, white and pale blue, palms, ferns, smilax, cut flowers making a bower of beauty. In the parlor there was a floral canopy with a wedding bell pendant from the center. A number of guests had been bidden to witness the nuptials and they came in large numbers and wore their wedding garments and it was with considerable difficulty that the wedding party reached the parlor when the hour for the ceremony arrived. Mrs. Scott J. Mason played the wedding march from Lohengrin as the bridal party entered the parlor with slow and measured tread. First the little flower girl, Margaret Vassar, who wore white lawn and carried a basket of tulips and roses. The maid of honor, Miss Ora Wood, wore a gown of silk organy and shadow lace and carried pink carmations. The charming bride entered the parlor leaning on the arm of her father, wearing a gown of white satin charmeuse en traine, trimmed with beads and shadow lace. A draped tulle veil held by a wreathe of orange blossoms fell from her dainty head. She carried a shower bouquet of white roses and was as pretty as a picture. The groom, accompanied by his best man, Mr. James Allen, attired in regulation full dress, entered from the rear and met the bride as she reached the wedding bell. Rev. Henry P. Jones, of St. James A. M. E. church, performed the ceremony that made the twain one. The bride's mother wore steel grey silk and shadow lace with pearl trimming. The sister of the bride, Miss Aurelia, wore a shadow lace blue, moire sash. Mrs. Zelia Reynold wore black satin, waistle of pink with allover lace. The bride's father wore full dress. After the ceremony and congratulations, service began in the dining room from a beautifully decorated table, ferns and cut flowers predominating. Misses Laura May Petticord and Cora Harris presided at the punch bowl. Every one present seemed to enter into the spirit of the occasion and things went merry as a marriage bell until a late hour when the guests departed wishing the newly-weds health, prosperity and happiness. A number of gifts were received and displayed in a room on the second floor of which the following is a list: Oriental table cover and cut glass berry bowl, James Allen and sister Edythe.

The Young Men's Progressive Club held its annual election of officers last Thursday evening at the club rooms, 17 W. 29th street, with the following result: Carl Wade, president; Chas. T. Sexton, vice president; Stephen Springer, secretary; Clarence McCullough, treasurer; Messrs B. M. McDear, C. McCullough and R. Watson were reappointed trustees. The club will have its annual sermon preached at St. Peter A. M. E. Church, Sunday evening, April 26, by Rev. E. G. Jackson. Program at 8:15 All welcome. HARD TIME PARTY. By Young Men's Progressive Club, Monday Evening, April 27. The one chance during the year to have a good time at little expense will occur Monday evening, April 27. "Barrel legged" or "gun stock" britches, either one will do for the men. Ladies may dig up the long discarded hat and dress and once more put them to use. This idea was presented by the Y. M. P. A. a year ago and the management discovered how much real satisfaction the occasion seemed to give everyone, so it has been decided to make it an annual affair. The club invites you to come out and see, be seen and enjoy yourself. The same grade of good punch with McCullough's Orchestra and a few stunts by the club members will add to your evening's enjoyment. Admission, 35 cents. Come early and get a whole benefit.
