BEDDIDRON and Speechless For Three Years After Fall, Now Cured Excepting Her Mind Fails to Register Fact. Los Angeles Teacher Led Her to Walk and Speak. Los Angeles.—One of the most remarkable cases known in medical history and one fraught with interest both to surgeons and to students of psychology has been called to the attention of scientists in this city. It is the case of Carotota Sausedo, a fifteen-year-old schoolgirl. For three years Carotota was considered a hopeless paralytic, who would never be able to speak or walk. She had been injured by a fall on her head from a swing when she was twelve years old. It is declared now by doctors and her teachers that whatever body or brain injuries she may have received from that fall have been absolutely outgrown and that she is perfectly normal physically and mentally, except that her mind has failed to register the fact of her recovery. In other words, according to the doctors, if the child's mind can be wakened to the fact that she has recovered from her fall she will be able to walk, talk and develop as other children do. While three weeks ago Carotota could not speak and could not walk alone, today she speaks, with ease. walks without help and can even walk up and down the school stairs alone. Three years ago the little girl pitched from a swing to her head. She was picked up and stood on her feet. Instead of standing still she began to whirl round and round. She was entirely unable to stand still or to sit up. She was put to bed and pronounced a hopeless paranhetic. Her power of speech was completely stopped. With the beginning of the present school year, Lee one of the grammar school teachers, discovered the child. There were five other children in the family, all normal, and Miss Lee inquired into Carolita's history. Securing medical examination, she learned that, whatever bodily injury may have been caused by the fall, it no longer existed. "We cannot tell Carolita she is not a cripple or sick, because her mind has to be wakened up gradually to that fact. Miss Lee said, "but we are not sure what she is placed in a special class at school and her teacher invents little exercises and lessons for her." "She had to be almost carried to school. Her teacher made a small sand pile in the playground and many times a day took Carolita and helped her walk over it. Today Carolita can walk up and down the school stairs." "When school opened she could not talk. Now she talks to us and knows what we say. She can count in English and she can write her own name. Her father usually bright before the fall, and I see no reason to suppose that she cannot be restored to her former condition. "She has been in bed for the greater part of the past three years, as the schools at Chino would not take her in. So while her body healed itself, apparently, her mind never recovered from the shock of the fall." Little Carolita was taken to the Parent-Teacher clinic for further examination. To verify the diagnosis of other doctors, it was the report is made her special teacher will prescribe. We have begun in their novel work of teaching the child's mind that her body is neither paralyzed nor injured in any way. OLDEST RED CROSS MEMBER Is Pointed Cap, Canadian Indian, Who at 108, Senda Portrait. Ottawa, Canada—A novel picture has been received by Sir Robert Borden, the Canadian premier, and forwarded by him to the local Red Cross rooms. It is that of the oldest member of the Red Cross society in the world and at that a western Indian, Pointed Cap, who belongs to the File Hills Indian reserve in Saskatchewan. He will be 108 years old on Nov. 14 next. The establishment of a branch of the Red Cross society for these Indians shows how deeply the people of all classes in the Dominion are interested in the war and eager to find a way of lending assistance, it is said. PROFESSOR LOST IN WILDS Wife Sails to Search Australia For Missing Entomologist. Berkeley, Cal.-Mrs. Genevieve Bridd-well, wife of J. W. Bridd, former entomologist at the University of California, is on her way to the antipodes into which she went into the wilds of Western Australia some months ago as the agent of the Hawaiian government in search of parasites to control insect pests. Professor Bridd-well was last heard from when he sailed from Sydney, N. S. w. for ports on the west coast of Hawaii, where he expected to proceed island. YOUTH HIKES ROUND GLOBE. Grunwaldt Nears End of His Long Three Year Jaunt. Sacramento, Cal. — Alexander Grunwaldt, seventeen years old, was on the last leg of a jaundair around the world when he reached here. The boy said he left San Francisco in a vessel bound to New York on 36, 1912, and has been going ever since. His trips were made afoot. He has paid his way by doing odd jobs and selling photos of himself. His route was from Australia to Calcutta by water and then by foot to Bombay, a distance of 1,200 miles. He traveled in a boat "hoofed" the 2,000 miles from Alexandria to Town. He arrived in New York March 25 last and started immediately to walk the 3,358 miles back to San Francisco. ALLEGED DRUNK WALKS LINE Returns on His Hands and Justice Promptly Dismisses Him. Nashville, Ind.-Justice of the Peace Duard Calvin has a novel plan of determining whether a man is drunk or sober. Marshal Reed arrested one Copenhaven for drunkenness and took the man before the justice in the Calvin case, entertaining a bunch of "loafers" and for their entertainment drew a chalk line forty feet long and told Copenhaven to walk the line. The crowd gathered on each side of Copenhaven, and he walked the line without a mistime. At the far end of the he stood on his hands and walked back. Calvin, above the roar of laughter, old Copenhaven he was dismissed. GOES BROKE ON HONEYMOON Mishap to Auto Put Bridal Pair in Straits on Tour. Muscatine, Ia.—To be owner of a large seven passenger touring car, with which you embarked upon your honeymoon, and yet be forced to apply to a welfare society for lodging for the bridgewould be embarrassing to most bridges, and didn't make any of the joy out of life for George Garrett of Elkhart, Ind., and his bride, who reached here en route to Seymour, Ia. A series of mishaps drained Garrett's purse, and upon his arrival here he was forced to "hook" his extra suit to buy gasoline and, with his wife, was boarded at a local hostelry at the expense of a local charity body. GOLDEN WEDDING PAIR RETURN TO OLD HOME Names Carved When Sweet-hearts Still Remain. Peabody, Kan.—For their golden wedding Mr. and Mrs. A. S. Lowther of this city went back to their old home in the West Virginia hills, which they had not visited since they were married, fifty years ago. They joined the trek to the Kansas prairies before the Santa Fe railroad ran further west than Emporia, and the trip to Marion county was made in a prairie schooner. Here the Lowther took up a homestead and lived, lured eleven children, eight boys and three girls, and in all that time they never lived home in Richle county, not even to visit. But for the fifteenth anniversary of their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Lowther decided to return to their old home. They were sweetheartts when the civil war broke out. For four years the West Virginia wore the blue uniform of the federals. When peace was declared he went back home, back to his sweetheart, who had waited for him. The trip to the altar followed. And later they came west. Writing from West Virginia to her son Marty of Peabody the other day, Mrs. S. S. Lowther said everything had changed back to the hills had got higher than fifty years ago. But the old log cabin in the she wore reared was still there, and so were the old well, the old oak bucket and the initials of herself and Mr. Lowther which had been carved fifty years ago. HEN LAYS PEANUT EGG. Puzzle Now Is, Would its Chick Have Been Wasp Waised? Indianapolis, Ind. — There is some question as to which of his hens had such a grotesque idea of what an egg should look like, but anyway an egg that bore the general contour of a peanut and is a bit less than two inches from tip to tip was found in P-bert Arnold's hemostoet. The kind of chicken that ultimately would have emanated from such an egg will remain a matter of mystery, for the egg was eaten. But Arnold now feels sure it would have been a fowl with a wasplike waist. WATCHED ANKLES, IS SUED. Husband Also Had Sixty-three Girl Friends, Mrs. Moegling Says. Cinchnati, O.—Because she could not keep her husband home on rainy evenings, as he insisted on standing on the downtown street corners watching girls as they crossed the streets, boarded or off the cars Mrs. Ethel Redmond Moegling filed suits for divorce from Richard E. Moegling. She charges that her husband used a cipher system in keeping trace of his "lady friends," of whom she gave the names of sixty-three. SUSPENDS PAPER TO WED. Young Western Editor Apologizes For Taking Week Off. Wenatchee. Wash.—Ashley E. Holden, graduate of the Wenatchee high school, who is editing a newspaper at Orient, asked the indulgence of his subscribers for suspending the paper at Holden salah. "We don't know whether it is customary for an editor to take a vacation or not. We do know that we want to get off for a week, and as this paper is yours and you are the boss we are going to ask your indulgence and omit next week's issue. No, our grandmother game, and you won't be a ball game, nor even the Spokane county open bird season which is calling the open fact of the matter is that we are going to obey the Biblical injunction that advises a man not to live alone." MEMORY BACK, SPEECH GONE Man Tells Strange Story of Being Lost Since Boer War. Seattle—His mind a blank for the thirteen years that have elapsed since he was rendered unconscious beneath a horse's hoofs in a skirmish in the Boer war, Sergeant William Tait, who says he commanded a party of British scouts at Mafeking, has come to himself in the county hospital here. Tait was found in the woods of the Duwamish river, near Seattle. He imagined that he was seeking lost troopers. That he was giving a blood vessel in his brain has now restored his memory, but has deprived him of the power of speech. He has no recollection of how he came to America. NO ALIMONY PENDING SUIT. Indiana Judge Makes New Ruling in Divorce Actions. South Bend, Ind.-Women who start proceedings for separate maintenance in the St. Joseph county superior court will not receive temporary support and fees by order of the court pending trial or by order made by George Ford, judge of the court. The decision is against all precedent in the state, but, according to Judge Ford, is in accordance with a recent statute. Local attorneys say the ruling will not prosecute or maintain a woman who cannot prosecute their suite without an order of court compelling the husbands to support them meanwhile. Prospector Seeking to Start New Life Startles San Francisco. San Francisco.-Harry H. Cloud, sixy years "young," with his camping outfit of two burros and a cart, has walked 1,750 miles across burning desert and rugged mountain to get a "start in life." And Mirandy Cloud has established the long distance walker's record for both months. Mirandy is one of Cloud's burros. Cloud, who abandoned his mining "prospect" thirty miles from Prescott, Aziz, spread his blankets in the shadow of the Tower of Jewels outside the exposition grounds. The glitter and glare of the exposition have never had a more colorful contrast than this picture of sturdy, sun bronze age in top boots and khaki. The "tenderfeet" of the city stood amazed. The tricopter plied on Market street as the stranges caravan from the desert plodded down the great business artery. Crowds followed. Men cheered. Babies coded in gice. "Sell me the baby burro?" said a Miss Louise Burton. "Won't part 'er from 'er mother," replied Cloud. "I'll buy them both," said Miss Burton's sister Mabel. "How much?" "Ten thousand dollars." answered Harry. "Oh!" said the girls. Then they gasped again. "Well, these 'ere burros are my only pals," said Cloud. "Would you value a friend at less? I startin' after a fortune. I need it when I get old. An' I've got to have friends to help get it. If I have the ten thousand I won't need burros for friends. That's proved philosophy. Getap there, Jinnie." OVERSIGHT SAVES HIS MONEY Grocer Forgets to Take Cash Home, and Thieves Are Foiled. Marion, Ind.-When Jack Lines of Lines & Grosse, grocers, went home after closing the store he forgot to take with him the cash receipts for the day, about $400. Just after he retired some one knocked and shouted that his barn was burning. While Lines was away thieves searched his house from top to bottom. They made away with all the change in Lines' clothing, and it is the belief the police the barn was first set on fire by persons who knew Lines was in the habit of taking the money from the store to his home each Saturday night. Separated Fifty-six Years. Toledo, O. - After a separation of fifty-six years Mrs. Helen McCollough, a widow of this city, has located her brother, J. D. Bingham, at Kalamazoo, Mich., and has gone there to see him. Dyckman Farm House In Upper New York City Will Be Restored to Colonial Days' Condition—Only Dwelling in Manhattan Bujit In accordance With Dutch Tradition. New York—One hundred years ago great herds of cattle browsed daily on what has become the city's newest recreation spot—Dyckman House park. Owing to an arrangement made by Park Commissioner Ward the old Dyckman farmhouse, which stands on this property at Two Hundred and Fourth street and Broadway, will be restored to the same condition in which it was in colonial days. Mrs. Bashford Dean and Mrs. Alexander McMillan Welsh who have presented this house to the city, have not only given the surrounding park, but have agreed to improve it in accordance with the plans of the park department. Some incidents which figured have been furnished to Commissioner Ward by Professor Bashford Dean, whose wife, Mary Alice Dyckman is one of the park donors. Professor Dean is curator of the collection of armor in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. He has been at pains to produce the picturesque and accurate account of the house and its inhabitants, which follows: The ancient Dyckman homestead, which stands on a knoll at the corner of Broadway and Two Hundred and Fourth street, is unquestionably the building house on Manhattan Island built in autch family in accordance with the past Dutch traditions. Times have gone by, and many changes have occurred. The last of the family bearing the name, in the vicinity died recently in the person of Mrs. Fannie Blackwell Brown, widow of the late Isaac Michael Dyckman and herself of Dyckman descent in several lines. Her two daughters, Mrs. Basham and Mrs. Basham were Mary Alice Dyckman, and Mrs. Basham Welch, who was Fannie Fredericka Dyckman, have as the last of the kingsbridge Dyckmans decided to perpetuate the old Dyckman house in memory of their parents. The Dyckman house in question was built at the end of the war of independence, about 1753, as nearly as records go. It was then that the family returned to their lands after the perils of the ancient home, which had been built in the present one, nearer the river, had been built by the British. So a new house was built on ground which was somewhat higher and nearer the post road. James Dyckman and Dr. Jacob Dyckman were early graduates of Columbia college (1890-1811). Both died young, one a lawyer and the other a distinguished physician—he was health commissioner of New York, author and scientist. It was he who is said to have obtained for Columbia college when he served in the history of the old Philosophical society of the Race of Benjamin Franklin which it now owns, busy Dyckman, son of the builder of the house, was one of the best known men in New York, long time alderman and a member of the constitutional convention in 1821. It was Jacobus Dyckman who took an especial liking to his young grandson, Isaac Michael Dyckman, which led ultimately to his coming to stay in the Kingsbridge household. He was then a boy of seven, the second son of Isaac Dyckman's daughter Hannah, who had been Squire Caleb Smith of Yonkers. So his father, originally Dyckman. The Dyckman family was so large it required great care in its upkeep. So it came about that Mr. Isaac Dyckman, the surviving bachelor uncle, looked ultimately to his nephew for help. At that time, it appeared, Mr. Isaac Dyckman had probably more real property in his hands than any other single property owner of Manhattan has had before or since. At his death in 1883 it was found that his estate be divided among his various nephews, he divided his favorite nephew, however, received the part, but with the proviso that his name should be changed by the legislature from James Frederick Dyckman to Isaac Michael Dyckman. The latter did not retain the house as part of his heritage. It was no longer as he remembered it, and he had himself built a house in the northern part of the property not far from his uncle's. In fact, the old house had changed inside and out. Even the old cook, black Hannah, who was half Indian and lived to be a hundred years old, had gone away to the old Indian cemetery formerly on the corner of Broadway and 10th Street. Then, too, Mr. Dyckman found that the approach of a great city meant hements and taxes, when, in order to have parts of his tract developed, he should practically make people presents of his leaseholds. Indeed, it was this Jan Dyckman who devised for this whole region the farsighted plan of letting tenants have property for almost nothing in order that the future returns might be assured. One of his famous leases gave a tenant a valuable farm for one hen a year for seven NEVADA DIVORCE IGNORED. Bridgeport Suit May Bring Adjudication on Validity of Western Decree. Greenwich, Conn.—In the superior court at Bridgeport before Judge Case the many side issues in the divorce petition of Rudolph Ernest Tiedemann against Gertrude Eleanor Tiedemann of this place were disclosed on a motion to strike out an alleged amended reply. The real issue of the case will show the attitude of the Connecticut court on divorces issued in Nevada. Three years ago Mrs. Tiedemann obtained a divorce in Nevada and was allowed custody of the child and alimony. Last March the court sued for divorce, alleging desertion, and sued for attention to the Nevada decree. He never paid any of the alimony, it is alleged, and now seeks custody of the child. The amended reply is that the Nevada divorce is not good, because neither of the parties was a resident. Decision was reserved. SLIP BRINGS DREAM TRUE. Printer Laughed, but Losses Hand Exactly as Foretold. Kansas City—John W. Reed of the Read Printing company dreamed the other night of cutting off his hand in a paper cutter in his shop. He laughed when he told about the dream and said he was not superstitious and had no fear. Next day as he passed the cutter Reed slipped and struck the lever. His left hand went under the blade and was severed at the wrist. The crowd remembered the death, became confused and ten minutes passed before a physician was called. LOST GIRL CRAWLS MILES. Thrown by Runaway, She Is Loft Crippled in Dessert. Needles, Cal. — Lost in the desert, forced to crawl for miles on her hands and knees during the night and finally rescued by a railroad engineer as she lay unconscious on the tracks, were the adventures that befell Miss Louise M. Pearson, twenty-two, of Oakland, in the Mohave cave. Pearson left Ludlow on horseback to locate a mine in Old Dad mountains. Ten miles out her horse threw her. Her ankle was so severely sprained she could not walk, and the horse, carrying food supplies, raced away. Washington.—The department of agriculture has inaugurated a vigorous campaign for the protection of game under the federal law and is adding the various states in carrying out their states. More than 240 new game laws were enacted during 1915—a larger number than in any previous year except 1911. Forty-three states held regular legislative sessions, and in all of these states except Arizona, Georgia and Nebraska some changes were made in the statutes protecting game. The largest number of new game laws passed in any one state was sixty-one. In North Carolina some changes were made in the statute, Maine, New Jersey, Oregon, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin the number reached ten or more. Several measures were vetoed, including a general game bill in Idaho, the first bill appropriating the hunting license fund in Pennsylvania, a bill protecting bears in California and three sections of the game bill in麻省州 state. We were introduced for the purpose of harmonizing the state laws on migratory birds with the federal regulations. In at least nine states changes were made which brought the seasons into substantial agreement—namely, California, Connecticut, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, Tennessee and West Virginia. In Illinois the seasons for all migratory birds except coot and waterfowl were changed to allow smaller shore birds were made to conform the regulations under the federal law. Uniformity was also secured by provisions in the laws of Connecticut, Maine, New Mexico, North Dakota, Washington and Wisconsin, prohibiting hunting between sunset and sunrise. On the other hand, Delaware adopted a resolution opposing the milestone law, and Ohio and Rhode Island, which organized their seasons in 1914, changed the seasons on waterfowl this year. As a result of the decision of the supreme court of the United States on Jan. 19, 1914, sustaining the alien hunting law of Pennsylvania, legislation prohibiting aliens from hunting or owning shotguns or rifles was enacted in at least four states—Massachusetts, New Jersey, North Dakota and West Virginia—but certain exceptions based on property qualifications were made in Massachusetts and New Jersey. Owl Caws Auto Smash. Peru, Ind.-Marlon Dillman took a party of friends automobiling, and when near Chili an owl struck him in the face. Dillman let go of the steering wheel, and the car ran down an area of the occupants was hurt, but Dillman's face was scratched by the owl's claws. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. DIVORCES WITHOUT JUDGE? Lawyers, Apparently, May Grant One in California. Los Angeles.-Judges and lawyers learned with surprise that through an amended provision of the state constitution apparently any qualified attorney may grant a decree of divorce. This became known by the recent granting of three decrees in Santa Rosa by attorneys sitting as judges pro tempore after having been selected to try the actions of the litigants themselves without the sanction of the court. The modified amendment reads: "A case in the superior court may be tried by a judge pro tempore, who must be member of the bar, agreed upon in writing by the parties litigant or their attorney of record and sworn to the cause, and the person so selected shall be empowered to act in such capacity in all further proceedings in any suit or proceedings tried before him until the final determination thereof." The clause "approved by the court" has been omitted from the act. TALK OF BABIES JARS THEM Spinsters Form Club to Avoid Chatter About Husbands. Sabeth, Kan.-An organization of spinsters has been formed in this town to save them from hearing talk about babies. "At the women's clubs," says Miss Georgia Hook, head of the spinsters, "all we hear is talk of babies and husbands of various kinds. Oh, you cannot realize the unintentional cruelty of the measure can we have in hearing talk of babies, babies all the time? The small town never gives the proper chance for all girls to marry happily. Too many of our best young men go to the cities. As a result there are more marriageable young women than young men." EATS PORK AT EVERY MEAL Hoosier Farmer Say It Is Isweet Diet and Good For Longevity. Columbus, Ind. Do you wish to live long and be strong? Then eat pork three times a day, says Samuel Reynolds, a farmer here, who is seventy-five and can carry a sack of grain with the best. Reynolds eats pork three times every day, and if he wishes a little snack of something between meals he eats a piece of pork. If he happens to need a bite of something before going to bed he eats a piece of pork. He never ate an apple in his life, and he never tasted any sort of fruit, butter or jelly. TABLET FOR INDIAN FRIEND OF WHITES Seattle Professor Seeks to Honor Chief Pat Kanim, Seattle, Wash.—Professor Edward S. Meany of the University of Washington is arousing public interest in the memory of old Chief Pat Kanim of the Snoqualmie Indians. Chief Pat, a stanch friend of the early whites, is one of the forgotten heroes of pioneer days, and Professor Meany wants his grave marked with a suitable monument. In the fear the lurking reds had reason to fear the lurking reds now stands. It is not known just when the chief died, but he was buried on a bank of the Snohomish river. When the war was threatened by the overflowing river relatives moved the remains to the little cemetery on the Thabalipi reservation, where many of the tribes resided in power now live in humble homes. Bancroft's "History of Washington" tells of the chief's craftiness in driving Glasgow and Rabbeson from the first settlement on Whidbly island in 1848. He made a great drive with dogs and secured sixty deer for a feast of assembled warriors. He connexed in favor of driving the white men out of the country. Glasgow and Rabbeson went back to Tumwater, and the next year Pat Kanim led an assault on Fort Nisqually. While Pat Kanim was parrying inside the stockade his brother was killed leading an attack by the Indians. Pat Kanim was spared, and in 1850 he made a trip to San Francisco in a sailing vessel. What he saw on that journey was the resolve to become a friend of the white men. He faithfully lived up to that resolution for the rest of his life. MAKES MODEL OF HIS JAIL Prisoner Works For Fun—Wouldn't Work For His Children. San Francisco. — Joseph Swanson, serving a term in the county jail for failure to provide for his children, has proved his ability to provide for them if he cared to try. During three weeks in jail he modeled a wooden replica of the building in which he is imprisoned with a saw, jackknife and a pot of glue. The windows are made of celluloid panes. Swanson has presented his model to Sheriff Barnet, who has placed it in his collection of curiosities. She "Chewed," He Said. Huntington, W. Va.—Francis M. Edgall got divorce because his wife, according to his petition, persisted in chewing tobacco in bed. He also got the custody of the four children.

Before Dying Would Be Inventor of Minnesotaapolis Destroyed All Charts or Mechanical Contrivances He Had Made In Search For Perpetual Motion Machine. Minneapolis, Minn.—When John Laney, ninety-three years old, was laid to rest in Crystal Lake cemetery a seventy year quest for the secret of "perpetual motion" came to a fruitless end. So close did he think himself to the secret at times that he trembled with expectancy. For seventy years, despite his disappointments, his mind afame with ambition, Laney worked, thinking, experimenting. His man, a Scotchman by a stonemason and a trade, whose only relaxation was reading the works of Bacon, Shakespeare, Coleridge and Wordsworth, smashed and destroyed contrivance after contrivance when it failed. Then with intensified energy he concentrated on a new idea. "It almost worked." "These three words tell the life story of the man gifted in some ways beyond his fame. In his life, he wanted his name to go down in history, ways when he fancied he was at the very edge of accomplishment it was only to find the something missing in a contrivance that "almost worked." "When I was just a little girl father used to have the kitchen table cleared for him when supper was over," said Mrs. Lizzie Welton, at whose age the aged man spent his last days. He had a groove in the table and a knife that he made himself. He would roll this knife round, and often mother would have to go up late at night and beg him to stop and rest. "Father had a good education, mostly self acquired. He loved the poets, and he wrote several songs, one for the St. George guards of St. George, New Brunswick, where we once lived. He was a sculptor also." Outside the steps of the cosy cottage Mrs. Melton lives are two pieces of gemmed wood, the figures of Haiwatha and Minneapolis; the other has on it a bear and two cubs. Inside the house, highly treasured, is a chain five feet long, with many links and an anchor at the end, that was cut out with a jackknife from a solid piece of wood. Many small mementoes remain. Before he died John Laney destroyed all charts or mechanical contrivances he had made in his search for a solution. One day he said to his daughter: "Perpetual motion will yet be found. There is no doubt of it. When it is found the world will be astonished not alone by the stupendous changes that it will bring in all industrial life, but by the simplicity of it. Millions will wonder why no one ever thought of it before." "I am an old man" he would often say. "I saw the coming of the railroads, the telegraph, the automobile and the more wonderful things of the world, predicted back in 1850 that the world would wagonless, and it is here. Ah, if I could only just get the one little missing link." MAD DOG CALLS POLICE Upsets Telephone In Rampage and Central Does the Rest. Danville, Ill. — A dog afflicted with rabies indirectly called the police department and thus brought about its own destruction. Before it was killed it overturned much of the furniture at the home of Louis Smith, its owner, and badly scared the servant. In its rampage it upset a desk on which the telephone rested and as the receiver fell from the hook central asked for the number. The operator heard the howling of the dog and, believing that something was wrong, called the police department. BABE TRAVELS IN BASKET. Young Father Makes Long Journey With Motherless Child. Eagle, Ariz.—With a clothes basket as a cradle for his month-old motherless babe R. E. Hitt made the journey from Eagle to Sidney, Ia., to place the infant in the care of its grandmother. Mrs. Hitt died just a month ago following the birth of twins, one of which died at birth. A woman on the train volunteered to assist the young father, and the infant reached its destination safely. **Owne Wrong Land Twelve Years.** McMinnville, Ore.—Twelve years ago Josef Henrich bought eight acres of school land from the state, located, paid taxes and improved the place. N. W. Smith, who recently purchased thirteen acres from the state, discovered that Henrich had been living on his land and had paid taxes on another tract one mile south similar in description. In the twelve years Henrich had built a home on the Smith place, cleared some of the timber and cultivated the land. The Henrich tract in the meantime has not been touched. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL?

The men who are engineering this scheme are really asking that they be set apart from other Americans. They do not seem to realize that they are advocating the most dangerous form of segregation, because they are endeavoring to have the government stand sponsor for a plan which strikes at the very roots of citizenship. The military school at West Point is not closed officially and legally to colored youth, and even if it were the colored people ought to force it open. The president can appoint cadets and members of congress can also name them. The proper thing to do is to make an effort to have colored cadets appointed and not ask to be segregated. That would be an injury from which the race would never recover. There are colored men living who have graduated from West Point; why not try to get some new cadets admitted? All sorts of classes and races of THE SIN OF SILENCE To sin by silence protest makes cone The human race has test.

And the colored people are Americans, not allens. As citizens they should have ALL of the rights of citizenship, and one of the rights is to have their sons attend West Point. That right has never yet been denied to them by law. Those who wish to enter should make their entrance through the proper channels. Every true American ought to frown upon all such efforts as the jim-crowls are making to segregate American citizens. AN EAST INDIAN'S IDEA. Dr. Krishna of the dethroned dynasty of India, scholar, literate, and intimate friend of Pierre Loti, Anatole France and other European brillants is in the United States, and his portrait of an American is nothing like the reflection the delighted gentleman draws from his own mirror. In a recent interview Dr. Krishna said: "The American lacks spirituality, He is material. He gives his wife of 40 $10,000. 'Now, you take a go to hell for what I care,' he tells her. I must have a little bird around that I can flatter and be flattered by.' And he gets his divorce." To this cavalier treatment of the lady of 40, the American adds a fawning for anything British, and an amusing ingenuity in twisting scriptures to condone whatever he wants to do, said the distinguished East Indian. Dr. Krishna, dark, polished, and of excellent diction, spoke with contempt of America's degeneration to a mere colony of England, gladly restoring the yoke that Washington and other heroes had cast off at great cost of blood. "England says, 'I must control the seas,' and America says, 'yes, it is right that you should,' and America supports her. And yet, in 1812, your country fought England for just the reverse principle. There was a man, by name George Washington, and you call him the father of this country because he demanded and, somehow, won a free home for his people. "Send us no more missionaries of Christ. I find that not a nation that proclaims Christ has not robbed another nation of its home. And you thank God and Christ for each conquest that brings the light to heathen peoples. "Who has made this war? It is the Christian nations. Is that the light that you would have us brought by Christianity? "In India the English have brought a heel of iron. There are thousands of our people starving, and yet we must support English bishops with handsome rings, carriages, automobiles, and heavy crosses of gold. If Christ was crucified on the cross these gold ones typify, then his followers are nothing aback in crucifying their weaker brethren on their little replicas." Dr. Krishna is a graduate of the University of Bombay, the University of Japan, and of Oxford. He is president of the Franco-Indian society of Paris and Bombay, is literary critic and philosopher. THE COLORED MAN'S STAND ARDS. The Christian Register, the leading Unitarian publication of the country, prints so excellent an article on colored man's own standards that we are constrained to print extracts from it. "White men have set standards for the colored man for many years. Duy THE MAN WIDE DARFS I honor the ma- sclentious discharge to stand alone; the ant, intolerant ju- demn, the counter- may be averted, a friends grow cold, duty done shall be applause of the w ances of relati I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Summer. se when we should wards out of men. is climbed on pro- been raised against e and lust, the in- serve the law, and our least disputes. must speak and right the wrongs of or Wilcox. ing slavery days the standard was mainly one of health and strength, a "good disposition" was also estrable; a "bad nigger" was harder to sell than one who would make no trouble. Taken altogether the standard of antebellum days for colored men was much the same as that for horses,—"warranted sound and kind," and all the rest. During the war, with the splendid record of black men as soldiers, the standard held up for them by the white man shifted, though only slightly. After the war, and after the Fifteenth Amendment began to operate, the white man gradually altered his expectation of what the black could be and ought to be. Whites differ greatly to-day, both North and South, upon this question; as a rule, the more civilized the white man, the readier he is, in judging the colored man, to see his great possibilities and his remarkable progress, as already shown. The subtler problem, and more vital to the colored people, is regarding the race's standards for itself in the various arts of civilization. And his most serious obstacle is—not the injustice of his white neighbors, evident and regrettable as 'that is, but the danger he continuously incurs of holding up low standards of attainment for himself. If he is to compete with the white man in business, manufactures, arts, scholarship, and other pursuits, he must hold himself up to as high a standard of excellence as does the white man. As a rule, colored people do not quite come up to this; they have the faults of their qualities; they are too easily satisfied with attainment which is distinctly second-rate in the world's Bradstreet. The colored musician, or painter, or artisan, or writer is too apt to measure himself by the many people below him in skill instead of keeping his eye fixed on the few who surpass him. For this reason it is good for a colored boy or girl to attend a school or college which white boys and girls attend. Well-meaning girls and the colored people have pitied such pupils of mixed schools and academies because of the many slights put upon them by careless, or unfeeling white schoolmates; but people who see more deeply into the real problems of the colored race believe that it is better for such affronted young people to undergo the affronts and to remain in the keen atmosphere of white standards of custom, costume, and scholarship than to live in a mild atmosphere of half-attainment, among brothers and sisters of their own race, all alike half blindly groping their slow way out of the darkness. Better that a colored boy should bear whatever slights are put upon him by certain narrow, selfish, white boys at Yale or Harvard than to drift comfortably along in some Negro school which has not got itself as yet squared to the world standards, in a world where white men rule." NOT NEGROES—JUST AMERICANS This is an opportune time to call attention to the fact that there are more than 10,000,000 native Americans who for many years have been treated as aliens because they are darker in complexion than the aliens who have become naturalized. The Supreme Court of the United States has recently decided that the efforts of the south to nullify their votes are null and void and that they are citizens indeed. The colored citizens are native Americans with several generations of American ancestors and there is absolutely no reason why they should be differentiated in any way from any who in the con- ge of his duty dares the world, with ignor- gment, may con- nances of relatives and the hearts of but the sense of sweeter than the world, the counten- FATE OF COLORED PEOPLE IN OWN HANDS. "THE FATE OF THE COLORED RACE IS IN ITS OWN HANDS. YOU WILL GET YOUR RIGHTS WHEN YOU ARE FIT TO HAVE THEM, FOR WHEN YOU ARE FIT TO HAVE THEM YOU WILL TAKE THEM AND UNTIL YOU TAKE THEM, YOU ARE NOT FIT TO HAVE THEM."—Hon. Albert E. Pillsbury in a speech at Faneuil Hall, Boston, Massachusetts, August, 1913, at Semi-Centennial of Fort Wagner. other citizens, native or naturalized. It is well to erase the hyphen and the word "negro" as a racial name for colored Americans ought to blotted out at the same time, forever. PERSISTENCY WINS One of the finest examples of persistence we have heard of lately, is that exhibited by Mrs. Martha Washington, a former slave, now residing in Cincinnati, Ohio. Though 72 years of age she has enrolled in the West high school. She has been attending the evening classes from the first year they were organized, 15 years ago, and she says she will not quit until she has been awarded a diploma on merit. The superintendent says one will be given to her for persistence if for nothing else. There are lots of young people we know who could emulate her example with great benefit. ASSAILS U. S. INDIAN POLICY. Brigader General R. H. Pratt, founder of the Carlisle Indian School declares that the policy of the government in forcing the Indians to remain on reservations would deter their civilization for hundreds of years. "If there had never been an Indian reservation," he said, "and if we had never had an Indian bureau, the Indians of the United States would today be a thousand times better off than they are, and this country would not now be called upon to appropriate $10,000,000 yearly for the management or mismanagement of the bureau. "I say without hesitation or reservation that the true policy of the government should be to permit the Indians to attend our schools and to eliminate the purely Indian schools altogether. I would have Indians enter government employ, and I would assist them as far as possible in entering business life. That will accomplish far more than reservations will." What General Pratt says is good sound sense and applies to all other nationalities and classes. The plan of segregating any class of Americans is both morally and economically wrong. The white Americans who insist upon jimcrow cars, jimcrow schools, jimcrow libraries, jimcrow public parks, etc., etc. for colored Americans FATE OF COLORED PRIORITY "THE FATE OF THE ITS OWN HANDS. YOU RIGHTS WHEN YOU ARE FOR WHEN YOU ARE FIRST WILL TAKE THEM AFTER THEM, YOU ARE NOT HON. Albert E. Pillsbury in Boston, Massachusetts, Auction of Fort Wagner. are traitors to true Americanism and the colored Americans who accept, without protest, the indignities and degradations forced upon them, have descended so low in the scale of humanity that there is no word in the English language to describe the depths to which they have gone. AMERICANS—THAT'S ALL. For many years it has been the custom to treat colored people as aliens, although they are more than ninety-nine per cent of American birth; and there is a growing tendency among the colored people to regard themselves as aliens. This is being encouraged by a class of leaders who call themselves "Negroes" and yell about "Negro Kultur" although they have not more than half and often less than one-eighth of Negro blood. Such men ought to stop the "Negro" propaganda and be Americans and demand justice because they are Americans and not by the false assertion that they are "Negroes." They should not have any rights as "Negroes" but every right of an American citizen should be and will be accorded them, if they fight for their rights as American citizens by right of birth. THE CAT OUT OF THE BAG. For many years the South has op-posed higher education and is not generally in favor of any kind of education for the masses, and to suggest that a colored person ought to receive a classical education is sufficient to throw a Southerner into hysterics. There's a reason. Rev. George H. Atkinson, president of the Albemarle Norman and Industrial Institute, Albemarle, N. C., is now in the North "raising funds" as so many other Southern beggars of various colors have done, prior to Rev. Atkinson's arrival. In a recent speech, the reverend gentleman said: "We believe if you educate a man in the South he will become dissatisfied and move to the North, where opportunities seem to be more numerous. His education, therefore, does not help the South. There can be only one solution of the race problem, and that is the right one—the absolute abolition of the color line. Any other settlement is temporary. No question is settled until it is settled right. There will be no peace in this country until the colored man has every right guaranteed under the Constitution. American Christianity is a travesty on the real article. The main object in the life of the average Caucasian-American Christian seems to be to hold his colored brother down. The word "negro" applied to the majority of the colored people is just as much of a lie after it has been capitalized as it was before. Be Americans. The Melting Pot (From the Chicago Defender.) From Los Angeles comes the news that the authorities there are considering what to do in relation to three children, claimed to be of colored parentage on both sides, and yet showing neither in complexion nor hair, a trace of the Ethiopian. There seems to be a suspicion that the little ones are of other origin and really are not colored even by a trace. The physiological aspects of the matter are too much for the non-scientific. If our friends on the other side knew what a laughing stock, they made of themselves in our eyes they would drop forever this question of color being a badge of inferiority, for did not not a great percentage of those who were victims Americans can truthfully say not a trace of dark blood courses through their veins. We who are on the inside know of thousands who have gone over on the other side and are "passing." The reason for their leaving is obvious. "Opportunities," the one thing we all crave, and the one thing that is the most difficult for the man of dark-skin to find. The world, but especially the United States, is full of people who are unconscious of the fact that they are not simon-pure white, and again there are thousands upon thousands who are so lightly tinged—but know it—they find little difficulty in going their unimplicated. But let their identity be discovered and they drop immediately in the eye of the narrow and prejudiced far below their associates' standard. Which only goes to prove this bugge prejudice isn't a matter of color after all. It is well for a great many that they are not compelled to trace their ancestors back farther than their father and mother, for if they did undoubtedly the next census would show an alarming increase in the colored population. FROM the Afro-American Ledger. "If I can live happily among the PEOPLE IN OWN HANDS. THE COLORED RACE IS IN YOU WILL GET YOUR ARE FIT TO HAVE THEM, FIT TO HAVE THEM YOU AND UNTIL YOU TAKE FIT TO HAVE THEM."— in a speech at Faneuil Hall, August, 1913, at Semi-Centen- colored people, if I can love them as I love the people of my own race, then I will know that our dream of brotherhood for all races may come true," says Miss Florence MacFarlane, delegate from London, England, to the New Thought Congress, which met in San Francisco recently. Miss MacFarlane announces her intention of going out to live among colored people. The experience of the Englishwoman may prove interesting but it offers little that is new. Thousands of her race and sex have not only learned to love their colored brothers, but "to love, honor and obey them." Not Worthy of Freedom. (From the Richmond Planet.) When a race or an individual submits uncomplainingly to oppression, it is a practical demonstration that the race or the individual is not worthy of freedom. The Lynching of Haiti. But, why not Mexico? Well, Mexico has a population of 15,000,000. It has several men calling themselves generals, backed by armies that will fight. We are a peaceable people; we will not fight any people who can fight back. The helpless and unarmed are our prey. Just as we lynch helpless Negroes this administration has lynched the Haitian government. Colored Lady Leads All. (From Martinsburg Ploneer-Press.) The world's record in stenography and typewriting is held by a colored lady, in spite of allegations that as a people we lack in grey of brain. Keep a-coming sisters, for we are a new issue diffused through and through with the world's best blood, and its bound to tell, because it is in giant bodies. Campaign Against Lynching. (From the Christian Recorder.) There is no better time than NOW to begin a National Crusade Against Lynching in the United States. For which it will this national crime has spread, with which it is committed and the unjustifiable complacency with which it is regarded, should arouse the conscience of the country in one united protest against its further spread and He Is A Real Man Editor W. P. Dabney, of the Cincinnati Union, is busy day and night these days fighting segregation and all other forms of discrimination in the Queen City. This is noble in him, too, and especially so when it is known that Mr. Dabney is in an official position. Men of that sort are generally as mum as a clam, but this is not so in the case of Mr. Dabney. He is a man.

"Gasoline and naphtha can be made less dangerous for household use if the following six rules are observed," says Robert W. Hargadine, State Fire Marshal: 1. Never keep gasoline or naphtha in a glass bottle or other breakable container. 2. Never keep it near a fire or in a warm place. 3. Never rub any article in gasoline or naphtha, because these products are easily electrified. An exception to this rule is when in a cleaning kid gloves stretched over the hands, providing the rubbing is not done in the fluid, and is done in the open air. 4. Never press or iron goods that have been cleaned with gasoline or naphtha until they are thoroughly dried in the open air. 5. Never sprinkle gasoline or naphtha about the edges of carpets or rugs to kill moths. 6. Never keep a supply of gasoline or naptha in the cellar where the vapor from a possible leak might accumulate, but if it is absolutely necessary to keep the product in the house place the container on a shelf at least four feet from the ground. The observance of these simple rules will eliminate the hazards of handling and extremely inflammable products in the household, and none is expensive, onerous or impractical.

Walker of Indianapolis, the noted hair culturist and foremost business woman in this country, at Pilgrim Baptist church Thanksgiving night was not very largely attended, owing to numerous counter attractions. But those who were enjoyed a rare treat in listening to Madam Walker tell how she started in business and how she managed to reach the high plane in the business world she now occupies. A portion of her lecture was illustrated with stereoptic pictures showing Madam Walker's business and individual properties, which were manipulated by her granddaughter, Miss May Robinson, of New York. The madam is a very pleasing speaker, and her auditors were delighted. Dr. V. D. Turner was master of ceremonies and made some very pertinent remarks. The program was augmented by a very fine organ solo by Mrs. S. E. Hall, a recitation by Master Herbert Foster and a solo by Mrs. George Grissom. The lecture was under the auspices of the Ladies' Ald society. The Walker devotes the proceeds of her lectures to charitable purposes. "PARISIAN FLIRTS." The Attraction at the Star Theatre Next Week.

This is not the least surprising when it is taken into consideration that Mr. Robinson always provides a good show. This season he has gone to a larger expense than ever. A two-act burletta is offered this year with excellent vaudeville acts sandwiched in entitled "The Parisian Flirts." The show is accompanied with special scene lighting and electrical effects. Fifteen song hits and other gingles are interspersed during the action of the burlesque while the choristers, composed of twenty-five shapely and stunningly gowned young women, come in for a considerable share of praise. They possess in addition to their good looks, real talent and sweet voices. In its entirety the show is far the best that has come to town in some time. Matinees as usual.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 1915. Mr. Bogie is on the sick list. Mr. Dodson of Elliot avenue has been quite ill for the past two weeks. The union Thanksgiving service and dinner at Zion Baptist church was quite successful. Editor Chas. S. Smith and wife attended the lecture of Mad. C. J. Walker in St. Paul Thanksgiving night. The Thanksgiving dance given by Fezzaneese Court No. 7, D. of I., at Masonic hall, was a very fine affair, well attended and very pleasant. The Y. G. B. C.'s met on Wednesday evening at the residence of Miss Mildred Plummer. Club business was discussed and refreshments served. Six poor old people were made happy on Thanksgiving by means of a special collection taken up for them at St. Peter's church on Sunday evening. Madam Walker gave an illustrated lecture on Monday evening at St. Peter's church under the auspices of the Willing Workers' society, which was well attended.

Walker of Indianapolis, president of the Walker Manufacturing Co. and Lelia College of Beauty Culture, who is lecturing throughout the West, was the guest during her visit to Minneapolis, of Mrs. L. D. Martin of 3013 Garfield avenue. Her lecture here was well attended and pleased all who heard it. The colored citizens of Minneapolis thought that Mayor Nye was something of a man a few days ago, but they have unanimously changed their opinion since his recent complete backdown in regard to the revocation of the license of the Shubert theatre. He will be remembered when remembrance will count. It is very evident that Judge Taney's dictum is still the vogue, even in Minneapolis. Miss Leola Colman has been quite ill at her home, the result of a burn. The young people of the Twin Cities had a grand time at the party given by Miss Edna Shull at her residence on last Friday evening. The beautiful home was packed to overflowing and there the young people danced until the wee hours to the music furnished by Clarence Johnson. Refreshments were served and all left proclaiming having had the time of their lives. The citizens of Minneapolis will hold a memorial meeting in honor of the late Dr. Booker T. Washington in Assembly Hall, Court House, tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock. S. Smith, Esq., will preside. Music by the band 'Quintet and solos by W. Raynor and Mrs. Celestine Fitzroy.

RESIDENCE, 394 RONDO STREET. BUY RED CROSS SEALS When we realize that one person out of every four in America who dies between the ages of fifteen and fifty dies from tuberculosis, and that it is mainly through voluntary subscriptions that the fight against the disease is initiated, we realize the sale of Red Cross Christmas cards. The economic loss to this state annually from tuberculosis is ten million dollars, which means that every one of us loses five dollars personally. Practically all of the 2,500 annual deaths from tuberculosis are preventable if taken in time and properly treated. When you buy a Red Cross Christmas seal you help Minnesota to "take them in time" and to eliminate the needless and needless loss occasioned by the disease state. Tuberculosis leaves more destitute widows and orphans than any other disease—Red Cross seals save families from misery. If Minnesota raises the fund which it should, it will mean that poverty will not prevent the proper treatment of tuberculosis victims. Adequate funds will make possible the free services of physicians for diagnosis and treatment, the care of a visiting nurse, the care of proper diet and open air living for the patient and protective care for the families of the poor. Of course we want our community to rank among the first in per capita seal sales this year. The way to do this is not to talk about it, but to buy seals. Let us put them on our calling cards, on our private and business correspondence, bills, packages and gifts from now until the end of the year. If each of us purchased one hundred seals, think of what our community and the state could do in ridding itself of disease next year! --- BEER TEMPERANCE NUTRITION PURITY HEALTH On the Right Track Hamm's BEER THEO.
