AMERICA'S MOST DARING AIR MAN
All You Have to Do Is Take a Chance, Says Niles.
HOW HE STARTED FLYING.
Aviator only Twenty-five Years Old Has Looped the Loop, Flown Upside Down, Flown Wing Over Wing, Stoped His Machine on its Head and Then on its Tail Without Mishap.
Hempstead, N. Y.—It is never a bad day for flying, according to Charles F. Niles, the most braveless aviator in America today. He is a crowd spelbound as he looped the loop and turned somersaults in mildair while a sixty mile an hour gale was blowing. "It was as easy as rolling off a log," he said simply. "All you have to do is to go up and take a chance."
In one short sentence you have his philosophy of life. And because he has always been willing to take a chance "Do Anything" Niles, or "Take a Chance" Niles, as he is called by his intimates, is recognized as the most dangerous American. Although he has飞行 less than eighteen months, Niles has already looped the loop, flown upside down, flown wing over wing, stood his machine on its head and then on its tail

in midair without mishap. Moreover, he has repeated these surprising feats no less than four times over Hempstead plains. His only serious accident took place one afternoon when his motor stopped before he had risen seventy feet off the ground. The result was a fractured nose and a partially wrecked machine. But his willingness to "take a chance" was not injured.
Lineinno Beach has looped the loop in midail, but flying wing over wing and never been accomplished successfully until Niles did it last month. It is the most spectacular flying stunt that has ever been seen either in this country or abroad.
Less than two years ago this young aviator—he is in only twenty-five years old—was in the automobile business of his brother in Rochester, N. X., his more advanced and exciting life. He was not in the racing game, but simply selling cars, and he looked around for something more interesting. Then an advertisement caught his eye—an advertisement for a school of aviation announcing that the art of flying was taught in ten lessons. Instantly Niles made up his mind to be an aviator. Within a week he presented himself at the school and declared his intention of becoming a pupil.
Then," said Niles, "the instructor at the school explained that it often required more than ten lessons at $10 each to learn how to fly and that the advertisement was not to be taken too literally, but I handed him $100, told him I'd take ten lessons and that if I could not fly at the end of that time I'd bring suit against him for fraudulent advertising.
"But I didn't have to have a suit of any kind against the school," he added. "At the end of the seventh lesson I was making lessons in the air. And before I finished the course I was able to stunt and make better landings than my instructor. In fact I was offered a position as a professional aviator before my tenth lesson."
Niles' few months with the company were replete with adventures. One day he decided to go after the endurance record. He was up in the air four hours and thirty-five minutes, when the crank shaft broke. Fortunately he was nearly 10,000 feet above the city so he was able to glide down to safety. His special work at the factory was to try out new planes and engines—certainly as hazardous an occupation as the most adventurous person could wish for. But no risks seemed necessary. "If a machine looks good to me on the ground I'm willing to take a chance with it in the air," said Niles as he prepared for his second flight after looping the loop. "I'm afraid of only one thing—the collapsing of my machine while I'm dying."
A "CRUSOE" IN LAKE ERIE.
Had Been Marooned by Stranger and Left Without Food.
Middle Bass Island, O.—That he was taken to Middle Island Island. Lake Erie, three weeks ago by a man who said he owned the place and who left him food enough to last a week, but who never returned, is the story told by Henry Adair, affy, who says he lives in Detroit, brought here by members of a fishing party who rescued him in what appears was the nick of time.
Members of the party fishing in Lake Erie off Middle Island Island, isolated near the Canadian line seventeen miles from here, were attracted by the frantic waving of a shirt. Drawing closer, they discovered Adair. He was emaciated and starving. All he had left of his store of food was a few crusts of bread.
Adair told his rescuers that a man accused him in Detroit and asked if he wanted employment. He said he was to have been employed to look after the premises, although he found on arriving on the island there was practically nothing to look after.
His scanty food supply was eaked out with clams he found in the sand. His days he spent trying to signal help from passing boats.
KILLS AN EAGLE IN A TRAP
Bird Was a Huge One and Boldly Attacked Hunter.
Edmonton, Alberta.-Tom E. Mason, a fur trapper, has come to Edmonton for medical treatment, following a fierce fight with a golden eagle, which clawed and pecked his face, neck and left shoulder and arm. He killed the bird, which had a spread of wings of eight feet two inches from tip to tip.
"I was attracted to a trap," Mason said, "by a strange noise, and as I got closer I saw a huge golden eagle held up." "My first thought was to release the bird, not thinking that it would venture an attack, but that is where I was fooled. I was quickly made aware of the fact when I was sprawled upon my back with the eagle and the trap on top of me."
WORK NECESSARY TO BE TENNIS CHAMPION
New York.—It is not an easy thing for a girl to win a tennis championship. But the hardest work is not done around the nets while the contest is actually on; it is keeping in physical condition for such a match.
The hardest rules of the city, national indoor tennis doubles champion, has complied twelve rules which, she declares, must be rigidly adhered to before one can hope to win success as a tennis player. They are: First, no golf; second, no candy; third, no dancing; fourth, no cigarettes; fifth, no reading at night; sixth, no wine or cocktails; seventh, no swimming on match days; eight, massage after each day's play; ninth, luncheon on a glass of milk and a sandwich; tenth, plenty of rallying exercise before each match; eleventh, dinner nothing during a match except bake water; twelfth, bed at 10 p. m. and nine full hours' undisturbed sleep.
Miss Cassin in telling of the work necessary to keep in condition and the strength necessary for a game says:
"No matter how primed a man really is, a five set match finds him all in. He has to play harder to win or lose—than any man who goes through nine innings of baseball. A championship match with the players even and the players only with the duce games and duce sets will find him utterly exhausted at the end of the match. It makes many more demands on the players than two halves of varsity football.
"And if tennis means this for men perhaps one may imagine what it means for women and girls. If you play to win matches, if you long for the brackets which proclaim you a champion of your club or your county or your state, you must be ready to be grueled week in and week out, for tennels of that class is a gruel game. "Consider the girls and young married women from place to place all the live-long season. If means five months of hard work, selfish or number of the hardest kind of work from June through October. And then they must play indoors at least twice a week all winter long if they would keep in form."
WED IN HENCOOP, JAIL NOW.
Judge Tells Wife Deserter He Deserves to Be Cooped Up.
Kansas City, Mo.-Charles Summer, a clerk, married a year ago in a chicken coop before 10,000 persons at a chicken show in Convention hall, was reminded to the county jail on a charge of wife abandonment. At a hearing in a justice court Mrs. Summer said she believed only the novelty of marriage led Summer into matrimony. The court committee gave Mr. and Mrs. Summer a chicken coop and the coop for consent to the novel marriage. Justice Welch in remanding Summer to jail said: "Any man who has the nerve to be married in a chicken coop before 10,000 persons belongs in a coop."
ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. SATURDAY, JUNE 13, 1914.
LEOPARD IN ALL DAY VIGIL.
When Mate Dies It Moans and Refuses Food For a Day.
New York—From 10 o'clock in the morning until late at night Sultan, a snow leopard, four years old, stood with his fore feet planted across the body of his dead mate, Sultan, in a forty foot square outdoor cage in the Bronx zoo.
At intervals he raised his head and roared long and plaintively. Every time he did this the lions and jaguars inside the animal house, but Sultan paid no attention to him.
When asked when he expected to remove Sultan's body Schwartz said, "Well, I wouldn't go in there while Sultan is grieving—not for twenty years."

Washington. — In a report sent to FRUIT TRADE DOUBLED.
In Last Decade Imports Were $365,000,000. Exports $220,000,000.
Washington. — Foreign trade of the United States in fruits and nuts practically doubled in value in the last decade, the total imports having been $365,000,000 and exports from $19,750,000,000.
Imports rose from $24,500,000 to $485,750,000 and exports from $19,750,000 to $33,750,000 in the period from 1903 to 1913. Figures made public by the department of commerce and labor show that imports of fruits and nuts for the first two months of 1914 aggregate over $6,000,000 in value, or 20 per cent more than those for a like period last year, while exports amounted to $4,000,000 in value, or about 30 percent less than a year ago.
The sharp decrease in exports is accounted for by the shortage in the Pacific coast fruit crops in the past year. The domestic food supply was supplied.
RAISED ARMY FOR MEXICO.
Californian Held Up Eight Men and Drilled Them For an Hour.
San Rafael, Cal.-An attempt to organize a company of soldiers for the purpose, he said, of marching on Mexico landed Henry Klopp, caretaker of a large estate near here, in jail.
Klopp shouldered a rifle, went to a county highway and halted men on the road; he had accumulated an "army" of eight. For an hour he drilled them.
Word reached the sheriff's office that the men were being held prisoners, and a deputy slipped up behind Klopp and with the butt of his gun knocked him down. Klopp's gun was found to be empty. He will be examined for his sanity.
Geneva.—It is an open secret in European diplomatic circles that the aged King Peter of Servia wishes to abdicate in favor of his son and settle down in private life in Geneva. His majesty has a large circle of private friends here, he having passed ten

years here for the education of his two boys.
For more than a year past private emissaries have been on the lookout trying to find a suitable residence for the old king, but the notorious conduct of his son and heir to the throne has somewhat disarranged his original son, but his second son is still too young to assume the responsibility of a ruler.
The day after the assassination of King Alexander and Queen Dragon King Peter said—he was then Prince Karageorgevitch—that he abhorred the terrible crime, in which he took no part whatever. He added that he was too old to accept the throne, but that he had no choice in the circumstances. As soon as affairs permitted he would return to the quiet life of a country gentleman in Geneva.
In King James's years his majesty has kept up his correspondence with his former friends here and in letters he has stated quite recently that he hopes to be in Geneva again at no distant date. As he put it, "Now that the war is over, I can finish my days in peace with honor."
Rat Robs a Slot Machine.
Findlay, O.-The discovery of a rat working a slot machine averted suspicion from several boys who, it was thought, had been robbed it in the Toledo and Ohio Central passenger station of gum and pennies. Four hundred sticks of the former and fifty pennies were missed when a rat was seen climbing up the wall near the machine. It jumped on the trap in the machine and in this way released gum and pennies.
URGES BOARD TO DEVELOP ALASKA
Secretary Lane Would Eliminate Much Red Tape.
WANTS THREE GOVERNORS.
Suggests That This Body Have Supervision of All the Government Affairs—Would Replace Many Offices and Bureau and Control All Features of Development In Territory.
Washington. — In a report sent to Senator Key Pittman and Representative William C. Houston, chairmen of the senate and house committees on territories respectively, Secretary Lane of the interior department urges the creation of a development board to have complete control of the natural resources of Alaska.
Bills for the creation of boards or commissions to administer the government of Alaska have been introduced in the senate by Senator Chamberlain of Oregon and in the house by Delegate Wickersham of Alaska. These bills differ only in detail, and the general purpose of both is in accord with the recommendation of Secretary Lane.
The development plan urged by the secretary provides for a board of three members, appointed by the president and confirmed by the senate, which is to have headquarters in Alaska and is to be charged with the general conduct of all governmental affairs connected with the natural resources and development of the territory.
"It is proposed and urged," says Mr. Lane, "that the board shall take over such authority now exercised by various departments and bureaus as may be necessary to give it supervision over practically the entire public domain and all the natural resources of Alaska and control of such activities as are closely related and essential to the development of the physical resources of the country.
"The board would do the work now done in Alaska by the general land office, the forest service, the road commission, the bureau of mines, the bureau of education and the secretary of the interior. It should take over a part of the work and authority of the bureau of fisheries. Beginning at the shore line, the development board should have complete control of all governmental activities and interests connected with the development of infrastructure, transportation and the settling of the islands.
"This should include the control of water powers, building and maintenance of roads and trails and operation and rates of the railroads and telegraph lines. It should include protection and control of game, fur bearing animals, public lands, mineral deposits, coal, oil, gas, hot springs, timber lands and timber."
Secretary Lane also urges that this board should take over the supervision of educational work among the Indians and natives, the reindeer industry, the logging industry, the bureau's office and the supervision in cooperation with the department of agriculture of agricultural experiments and demonstration work in the territory.
It is pointed out in the report that at present each of at least a score of Government bureaus in Washington divided among the various departments has something to do with the government of Alaska and that there is a vast amount of red tape and circumcution in the administration of public affairs in this system. In the report of deays of several years in the handling of uncomplicated land and other matters which should have been promptly disposed of, "There must be new and simple machinery," says Mr. Lane. "The new policy is not to invite a few men to exploit the cream of Alaska's riches, to develop all the resources and possibilities of the territory harmoniously for the best interests of both the people of Alaska and Alaska and the people of the United States who own this great public domain." Mr. Lane points out that there are now only 862 miles of wagon roads, 517 miles of sled roads and 2,166 miles of trails in the whole of Alaska, for the construction and maintenance of which about $2,000,000 has been spent. He urges that roads and trails are as essential to the opening of Alaska to settlement as railroads, and that these roads for several years to come must be built by the government. The reindeer industry, now monopolized by the beginning of a great industry which may have something to do with solving the meat supply problem of the United States.
The secretary discusses at considerable length the cable and telegraph system in Alaska now operated by the signal corps of the war department and proposes that this should probably be managed by the development board.
Coffin Ready, Killis Himself.
Montgomery City, Mo.-Nicholas Dedoul, the oldest merchant in Montgomery, had a carpenter here make for an a webbed coffin, which he kept under his counter. He took pleasure in showing the coffin to customers. Dedoul tried to kill himself a number of times, saying he was too old. A widow survives since he shot and killed himself recently.

FRUIT TRADE DOUBLED.
In Last Decade Imports Were $365,
000,000. Exports $220,000.
600,000. Exports $220,000,000.
Washington. - Foreign trade of the United States in fruits and nuts practically doubled in value in the last decade, the total imports having been $365,000,000 and exports $220,000,000.
Imports rose from $24,500,000 to $48,750,000 and exports from $19,750,000 to $33,750,000 in the period from 1963 to 1913. Figures made public by the department of commerce and labor show that imports of fruits and nuts for the first two months of 1914 aggregated over $0,600,000 in value, or 20 per cent more than those for a like period in 1913, while exports amounted to $4,000,000 in value, or about 30 per cent less than the year ago.
The sharp decrease in exports is accounted for by the shortage in the Pacific coast fruit crops in the past year. The domestic food supply was supplemented last year by $32,000,000 worth of fruits and $16,000,000 worth of nuts from abroad and in addition over $4,000,000 worth of fruits and nuts from Hawaii and $3,500,000 worth from Porto Rico.
TWO TOES HIS FRAT FEE.
Student Loses Them While Stealing a Qualifying Ride.
Kansas City, Mo.-Cameron Reed of Cambridge, Mass., gave two toes as part of his initiation fee in a fraternity at the University of Missouri, where he is a sophomore.
With three other students, came to Kansas City riding the brake beam in order to qualify for the fraternity. Only those who have traveled "a thousand miles without a cent" are eligible to participate. The students boarded the rods of a train to make their return trip to Columbia. Reed fell as the train started, and a wheel crushed his foot. He was taken to a hospital, and two of his toes were amputated.
Washington—Snorky draws checks on the First Submarine bank of southwest Washington. He indorses them with a file and wrench and cashes them with a cable.
Snorky, known to his mother and two or three others as Edward Thomas, is sixty years old and is to the Seventh street wharves in Washington what a beach comber is to the water front at Anchorage.
One day about a decade ago they were shunting freight cars down in the old Jersey yards by the gas works when a switch engine run off a trestle and plunged into the eastern branch of the Potomac. The water is pretty deep at this spot, and securely embedded in the mud bottom of the river the engine reposed as peacefully as a Spanish galleon at the bottom of the Caribbean until Snorky came along.
As a child Snorky had taken a liking to the water, so when the story of the submerged freight engine came to his ears he saw visions of wealth. Going to the sea, he was trestled from which the engine was trapped and plunged, Snorky dived into the turbid Anacostia river, as the eastern branch is known, and started a submarine investigation. It took two or three dives to locate the engine, but Snorky eventually found it and made an eventy heiled a claim with Neptune for the engine or such parts of it as he desired and returned to the surface to equip it with such tools as he might need.
Calling on the junk dealer, he made a dicker with that individual. The junkman agreed to advance tools if, in return, Snorky would give him an initial option on all goods to be replenished from the deep. The covenant was made, and Snorky dived again. He used the wrench and cut until he had detached the choosest and most easily obtainable portions of the engine. Then he attached a cable and rose to the surface. Standing on the trestle, he hauled away at the cable until there appeared the beautiful brass bell of the locomotive. This he disposed of profitably and earned his first commission. His greasy cash drawer. Ever since he has sold the engine piece by piece to the dealer.
MOVES HOUSE TO DIE HAPPY.
Shifts It From Vermont to Massachusetts, Where It Formly Was. Pittsfield, Mass. - Eleazer Larabee has moved his house from Vermont into Massachusetts because he was born in Massachusetts and wants to die in the old Bay State. When he built a home in Williams-town he supposed that he was in the state. Then government surveyors came along and changed the state boundary after he had paid taxes to Massachusetts for several years. Larabee then had a new cellar diver in Massachusetts and moved his residence into the Bay State. The change cost him $1,000.

CHEATED OF HIS REVENGE.
Georgian Had Traveled 2,000 Miles to Learn Internet Visiting
Georgian Had Traveled 2000 Miles to Learn Intended Victim Was Dead. El Paso, Tex. — There might have been a tragedy here if William Berry, an Georgian, had not found upon his arrival that a man he had come nearly 2,000 miles to kill had been killed five years ago. Berry, trembling with anger and appointment, told his story to the police and returned to his Georgia home. Nine years ago in Oklahoma, he said. Bill Harrell had testified against him in a perjury case growing out of Berry having witnessed the killing of two men over a land grabbing dispute. Berry says he was sent to the penitentiary on Harrell's testimony, his family was scattered, his farm lost and health wrecked. He was four years in the penitentiary, he said, and for the past five years had been reusing his family and home ties, nursing the while a determination to some day kill who, he had learned, had reached El Paso. Five years ago Harrell attacked an El Paso newspaper publisher, J. F. Mitchim, and Mitchim killed him. Berry knew nothing of Harrell having been killed until he reached El Paso.
RUNAWAY HOGS ARE "WILD."
Farmers Can Make Them Pork Only by Shooting.
Ben, Ark.-G. B. Lewis, a farmer living near this place, killed two wild hogs which ran away from his place in 1910. The hogs were not full grown when they left and went away to the range, since when all efforts to get them had been futile until recently, when he found them in the forest and shot them at a distance of about 100 yards. He has three more hogs that are also in the forest.
The hogs go in bunches in the woods and are as hard to find and kill as a deer.
They are afraid of men and will run from them, but have no fear of dogs and will attack them. The two hogs killed by Lewis dressed about 200 pounds each.
MEXICO LOSING ITS WEALTH IN REVOLT
MEXICO LOSING ITS WEALTH IN REVOLT
Washington. — Consul Theodore C. Hamm sends to the department of commerce from Durango a striking array of facts showing the necessity for ending the Mexican revolution and reestablishing a stable form of government in that republic. For example, the state of Durango in 1913 was favored with abundant and seasonable rains, insuring fine crops of all staple farm products under ordinary conditions, but not more than two-thirds of the usual acreage was planted, and not more than 10 per cent of the crops planted were gathered by the rightful owners of the land, the remainder being appropriated for military purposes or harvested by others than the rightful owners on account of lawless conditions. Of Chile peppers, for instance, the export was only $4,000 against $5,000 to $75,000 in normal years. The cotton yield, says the consul, was phenomenal in the famous Laguna district of eastern Durango and southwestern Coahuila, along the Nagas river—120,000 bales, worth $8,500.00. Half the crop is still in the warehouses at Torreon, and the other half was shipped to the United States to sacrifice instead of being sent, as ordinarily, to the cotton factories in southern Mexico. The exports to the United States from Durango in the last year were $2,254,000 as against $9,731,000 in 1913. The railways to the gulf have not been in operation in 1914, and all trade is paralyzed. Torreon in times of peace is a busy interior manufacturing city, like Syracuse. N. Y., or Paterson. N. J.
In the city of Mazatian, state of Sinaloa, on the Pacific, United States Consul W. E. Aiger reports, the exports to the United States in 1913 fell off almost $000,000, or 20 per cent. Eggs are now selling there at 7 cents aple, milk at 30 cents a quart, fuel at four and five times the usual price and all other articles in proportion. And the three banks have closed, and all business is suspended. Tom was no railroad service in 1913 from March 4 to Dec. 31, and but for the numerous arrivals and departures of American war vessels there would have been scant mail facilities even by water.
MADE POSTOFFICE OF A TREE.
Iowa Pioneer, Just Dead, Carried Mail in 1844.
McGregor, Ia.—Jeremiah Roser, believed to have been the oldest resident of Iowa, was recently buried. He had lived in Iowa continually seventy-nine years. When he was sixteen years old he was a mail carrier, a hole in a tree serving as one postoffice.
In the winter of '44 and '45 Mr. Roser carried the mail on horseback from Dubuque sixty miles north into Icom, where he stop on a route was an old oak tree on the bank where he left mail in a hole cut in the trunk for the settlers who had built cabins in the timber roundabout.

SEA TRAVEL NOT YET QUITE SAFE Hidden Dangers Lurk Beyond Reach of Human Hand.
BUT PROGRESS IS RAPID.
Drastic Laws Requiring Sufficient Life-boats and Advent of Wireless Telegraphy Have Not Entirely Eliminated the Dangers—Heroic Rescues as the Empress of Ireland Sank.
Montreal—The sinking of the Empress of Ireland, crack transatlantic liner of the Canadian Pacific line, by the coal laden collier Storstad in the St. Lawrence river almost in sight of the shore tends to prove that one intrusts himself to the fates when boarding a vessel. Although in no other direction has such notable progress been made in recent years, no human hand has been able to make travel at sea absolutely safe.
The perfection of the wireless, the improvement of revenue cutter service and drastic laws requiring ample and seaworthy lifeboats have eliminated many of the dangers lurking in the path of the great ocean going vessels. But we still have the elements to contend with, and these can never be conquered.
When the Titanic sank with its fearful toll of life it was the elements that caused the disaster. The iceberg freed from winter quarters by the spring's sun broke away and brought death to the hundreds. The dense fog on the St. Lawrence, prohibiting the captains of the Empress of Ireland and the Storstad from seeing ten feet ahead, meant death to 1,000 persons.
The inquiry now under way will reveal that one man was perhaps more at fault than the other, but it cannot place the blame for the disaster on the shoulders of any one man. It was caused by the weather conditions—by the elements.
Following in the wake of the disaster many pathetic stories are told of brave rescues and intense suffering. Two participants in the tragedy of the burning of the Volturno at sea last
year are survivors also of the wreck of the Empress of Ireland. One of them was J. H. Price, an ordinary seaman on the Ireland, who while serving last year on the Devonian plunged overboard and saved a woman passenger of the Volturno.
The other man was a pantryman on the Ireland, John Cope, who was one of those saved from the Volturno.
Robert W. Crellen, a bronzed miner from Silverstone, B.C. swam for an hour with a golden haired little girl of eight on his back.
"And when will mamma and Evelyn get here?" the little girl asked when she arrived in Quebec. Mr. Crellen had not yet told her that her mother and small sister had lacked strong arms to support them in the ice water and had died there. They were Mrs. Sabina Barber, a widow, and her daughter, Evelyn, three years old. The little girl who was saved was Florence Barber, eight years old.
With Crellen and William Barry of Silverstone they were going on a holiday trip to England. They occupied rooms near one another in the second cabin. All of them got on deck together. This is Mr. Crellen's account of what happened:
"A great hole was in one side of the ship, and she listed over so far that it was only with the greatest difficulty that we could get them all up the companyway. We got to the rail and stood there. I held Florence, and Mrs. Barber held her little sister.
"Then as the ship listed we climbed over the rail and walked cautiously down the ship's side to the water's edge, trying to avoid falling into the portholes: Just as we reached the water's edge the ship gave a tremor that was terrible. We knew it was all over. I saw Mrs. Barber and her watering toward the water and reaching toward the shore, trying to get to them, but I couldn't reach them, and that's the last I saw of them."

IN THE "BREAD AND BUTTER STATE."
Nearly thirty years have passed since the editor of THE APPEAL left his native state, Kentucky, and came to Minnesota. Some years prior to that he saw the changing conditions and became convinced that there was no chance for Afro-American in the South—that is to be more than a halfman. He felt that there were many things more precious than gold. He intended to marry and rear a family and he did not care to subject his children, if any came, to the hellish conditions which were general in that section. He felt that they had a right to be born in a state where there was no law to degrade them—where they would have a fair field and then if they failed it would be their own fault.
In 1885 he packed up his belongings and came to the great state of Minnesota and he has never regretted the step. His way has not been easy, but he has reared a family, giving his children every advantage he could afford to give them and if they do not make good he can not be held responsible.
It has been a great benefit to reside in a state which does not generally discriminate between its citizens. There is room in the great state of Minnesota for others who wish to escape the degradation of the South. Well intentioned, intelligent, clean, respectable Afro-Americans will be welcomed here and those who have a little capital have a good chance to succeed.
Southern Afro-Americans who are thinking of coming this way should divest themselves of all jimcrow ideas before starting. Those who come as men and demand respect as men will be treated as men.
"BE MEN, NOT MOLLYCODDLES."
Marking the successful culmination of a course of hard study, the annual commencement of the National Law School was held in Washington. Senator James E. Martine delivered the address to the graduates and among other things he said:
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.
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.
"Be men, not mollycodles," he told them, "for if there is any class of men the world despises it is the class known as mollycodles." And a mollycodle is that breed of humanity which has the distinction of being indefinable. It is too bad that Senator Martine's advice was not given to a class containing Afro-American youth for it is sadly needed.
In the majority of the addresses delivered at Afro-American school commencements the speakers practically advise the graduates to become mollycodles and give up all of their rights as men. They are told to be good and the white man will hand them everything on a silver platter. A lot of such disgusting dope is passed out to Afro-American graduates every year.
There are entirely too many Afro American mollycoddles on earth right now and it will be well for the race if no more are turned out by the schools.
SEGREGATING REPUBLICANS.
The Central Afro-American of Saint Louis in a timely editorial protests against the action of certain branches of the Republican party in Saint Louis in putting the Afro-American voters off to themselves and shutting them out of the party councils in the formation of campaign plans. The Afro-American says:
"Especially is it true of some wards in this city, where the Afro-American voters are directed to hold separate meetings, where the only work they can accomplish is to carry out the instructions given them by the advocates of this segregation idea. It is an idea entirely foreign to true Republican principles, having no place upon the roll of honor with the names of Lincoln, Sumner, Grant, Douglas and others, but very properly belongs in the category of ideas advocated by Vardaman, Tillman, Blease and their ilk.
No separate meetings are necessary for the German, Irish, Jew, Italian or any English-speaking race of Republicans, then why in the name of all that is honest and fair are such meetings necessary for Afro-American Republicans. Afro-American do not demand more than their share of recognition in appointments, based upon their numerical strength, and they will never be satisfied with less. All voters in the Republican Party should have the right to express their preferences for men who desire their support at the polls, and this can only be done by Afro-American representatives being admitted to the party councils where the selections of the party organization are discussed. This is the only method we know of whereby the party organizations can in all truth act for a "government of the people, by the people, and for the people."
Let us have ONE PARTY COUNCIL participated in by representatives of ALL NATIONALITIES, then we shall have TRUE HARMONY, and a singleness of purpose that will sweep aside all opposition."
To all of which THE APPEAL says Amen.
PLAYING WITH FIRE.
The Afro-Americans in Atlantic City who are bending every energy to get a jimcrow principal for their jimcrow school ought to be in better business. They are making a great mistake. Instead of extending jimcrowism they ought to fight it and have the jimcrow school abolished as it is contrary to the laws of the state of New Jersey. Segregation NEVER plays. Perhaps the children of the men who are agitating this matter will curse them in the days to come and they will be justified in doing so.
Any man who at any time justifies and fights for the segregation of his people from other American citizens is not only an enemy of his race but he is also an enemy of the Republic. Caste begets caste. If the Afro-American people are segregated why not the

Jews next? Then perhaps some numerically weak class of citizens of foreign birth. Then perhaps the rich and the poor will be separated in the schools. Who knows? The jimcrow agitators of Atlantic City are playing with fire.
"RETURNING" TO AFRICA
The Richmond, (Va.) Reformer speaks of the colored people "returning to Africa." "Returning" is not the proper word; it should be "going." The people who are going to Africa are possibly descendants of Africans who were brought here against their wills a hundred years ago or more. The Afro-Americans who have started for Africa are poor deluded creatures who have been imposed upon by scoundrels of the Chief Sam Ikh. They will sup sorrow by the ladle full. Africa is not the place to go in order to better one's condition unless the immigrant is a white man. An Afro-American with a little capital who wishes to really improve his condition should go to Brazil. In that country he will find no color line and his advancement will be limited only by his own capabilities.
HONORING AN ARCH TRAITOR.
Fifty years ago when we were going to school one of the things that greatly impressed us was the universal contempt that was held for the traitor Benedict Arnold. But things have changed now according to press dispatches in the daily papers, one of which is as follows:
"Atlanta, Ga., June 3.—Memorial exercises in many cities of the South marked the observance of the birthday of Jefferson Davis today. In several states the occasion was designated as a legal holiday."
Just think of honoring the day that arch traitor was born! One of the causes of the conditions in this country today is because treason was not made so odious that no one who wished to be tolerated in any community would admit he was one of the traitors of 1860-3.
IS CASTE BREAKING UP?
Sir George Macalpine says that caste in India is breaking up and that Christianity is doing the work. He gives caste ten years to die and says that when it is dead there will be a great influx from India into the Christian church.
The Hindu who gives up his religion and even his caste to get into the Christian church is a fool—he's jumping out of the frying pan into the fire.
The Christian church is really the greatest promoter of caste in the world and if great numbers of Hindus break into the Christian church they will promptly be organized into segregated churches in violation of the alleged basic principle of Christianity.
Editor H. C. Smith of the Cleveland, Ohio Gazette, announces himself as a candidate for the Legislature. He was formerly a member of the Ohio Legislature and did good service for humanity in securing the passage of a civil rights bill and an anti-lynching law. Mr. Smith has been a fearless advocate for the rights of his people, through his newspaper and THE AP-EAL trusts that he will secure the nomination and be elected by a large majority.
On the person of a man who looked like a prize hobo and who was living at a 10-cent lodging house in new York, police found $53,000 in bills and bank notes. We suppose the poor fellow was afraid the high cost of living would break him if he lived according to his means.
Yes. Damphools.
Over at Atlanta City the Negroes have secured a James Crow school, are raring and snorting because the Board of Education exhibits some disinclination to give them a James principal. What fools we mortals be.

Silence is Infamous
Possibly the worst thing permitted to go on and work injury to Negroes, has been the silence of Negro speakers in the face of the infamous lies Ben.

Jewish Girl Outraged and Crucified By Russians.
Berlin—One of the most revolting crimes in the dark history of Russia was reported here in a special dispatch from St. Petersburg, telling of three Russian youths having outraged and then crucified the daughter of a poor Jewish fisherman in Stavrapol, on the Volga.
After outraging the young girl, the dispatch declares, the three youths dragged her to a cemetery, where they nailed her to a cross above one of the graves. Nails were driven through her hands and feet and even through her eyes. The three murderers were arrested, but their friends in the town released them and they escaped, it is asserted.
STOP TIPPING CUSTOM.
Ultimatum Issued to Pullman Company by California Commission.
San Francisco, June 11.—"We are willing to cut employees' wages one-half, or to double the rate the public now pays in order to be just, but we protest that you and other public service corporations cannot pass the buck continually to this commission. It is up to you to stop these practices and to pay your men decent wages." Delivery today by President John M. Eshman of the California State Railroad commission, to Richmond Dean, general manager of the Pullman company, in the course of a spirited argument on the tipping evil, during an official hearing on the question.
General Manager Dean insisted that there is nothing inherently wrong in it.
Such an idea the commissioner found "revolting."

Hon. J. W. Smith, the present State Treasurer, has served two terms, having been first elected in 1910. He made so good a record in his first term that the people thought one good term deserved another so they re-elected him in 1912. He now seeks a re-nomination on the record he has made during his term in the office. His title to the confidence of the people is stronger and broader than when he was first selected by them to guard their strong box, and this is as strong a reason as could be required why he should be continued in the office he now holds.

Last Thursday evening some over
officious young white fellows happened
on an interturban car on which Evan
Anderson and Miss Constance Crane
were riding. As Miss Crane is quite
fair in complexion they decoded she
was white and they proceeded to make
insulting remarks in intended for
their ears. When the young couple,
both are in their teens, left the car
the fellows followed and continued
their remarks, finally one struck
Anderson from behind and he was forced
to defend himself and in the fracas
he one of the white men named
Charles M. Doran in the abdomen
and the shoulder. Anderson and the
girl were both arrested by the police,
and were kept at the stations until
Friday when Anderson was placed on
trial in the police court, and he was
placed under $500 bonds to await the
condition of Doran. It was an uncalled for and outrageous proceeding
on the part of the young men who
attacked Anderson and he was justified
in defending himself.

John Wagener, the present Sheriff of Ramsey County, is a native or St. Paul and has lived here all his life and has been actively engaged in business. He has always taken a lively interest in politics and has made good in every position he has held. When he was elected four years ago he promised to distribute the patronage of his office so as to recognize all nationalities and so far as the Afro-Americans are concerned he has recognized them. Mrs. Grace Booker and Mr. Frank Kingry are among his present force and will of course remain if he is elected. This ought to recommend him to the voters.

Louis H. Peter, candidate for Sheriff of Ramsey County, is well known in political circles as he has been actively engaged in politics for many years and was a member of the recent board of County Commissioners. Before the days of non-partisanship he was a Republican and that will not work to his disadvantages now.
