Vail, Vice President, and T. Coleman du Pont, R. V. Lindabury and W. H. Moore Among Directors—Will Be Farmers' Mouthpiece. New York—The organization of the National Agricultural society, to improve agricultural conditions throughout the country, was completed at a meeting of prominent men here. James Wilson, who was secretary of agriculture in the cabinets of Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft, was elected president, and Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Telephone and Telegraph company, was chosen as vice president. Mr. Vail is largely interested in agriculture, having founded an agricultural school for boys on his farm in Vermont, which he recently turned over to the state. G. Howard Davidson was elected chairman of the executive committee. Mr. Davidson was one of the founders of the International Live Stock exposition and is identified with many agricultural and live stock associations. These directors were elected: James Wilson, Theodore N. Vail, G. Howard Davison, T. Coleman du Pont, John A. Spoor, Richard V. Lindaburry, William H. Moore, Henry C. Stuart, James W. Wadsworth, Jr., Robert A. Fairbairn, Samuel Insull, Charles A. Ods, N. H. Gentry, Peter Jansen, Fairfax Harrison, Walter A. Johnson, P. C. Long. T. Coleman du Pont, who later secured control of the Equitable Life Assurance company, is one of the largest breeders of prize dairy cattle in his home state of Delaware. John A. Photo by American Press Association. JAMES WILSON. Spoor, chairman of the board of the Union Stockyards and Transit company of Chicago, was one of the men responsible for the success of the International Live Stock exposition. Richard V. Lludabury has found time to reach a high place in the agricultural world because of his success in improving the breed of Guernsey cattle and Berkshire pligs. William H. Moore, a director of the National Biscuit company and interested in other large New York enterprises, is a familiar figure at horse shows both in this country and abroad. Governor Henry C. Stuart of Virginia is the largest raise of beef cattle in the south. He made the production of beef on a large scale successful in the east. Senator James W. Wadsworth, Jr., is the proprietor of a model farm at Genesee, N. Y. He also has had extensive ranching experience in Texas. Robert A. Fairbairn, vice president of the International Paper company and one of the foremost breeders of Clydesdale horses, has for years been interested in the work of the New Jersey state live stock commission. The studs of Samuel Insull on a 4,000 acre farm in Illinols are known through out the middle and far west. Charles A. Otis and N. H. Gentry, the former in New York state and the latter in Missouri, are known to up to date agriculturists for their work in cattle and horse breeding. Peter Jansen of Nebraska has been rated as the largest sheep raiser in the central west. As president of the Southern railway and a practical farmer in his native state of Virginia Fairfax Harrison has worked consistently for the improvement of farmers' conditions in the south. Walter A. Johnson, who was elected treasurer, and P. C. Long, who was chosen as secretary, both have been long connected with farmers' publications. Among others who have been instrumental in organizing the society are James J. Hill and W. K. Vanderbilt of New York, J. H. Wade of Cleveland, Frank O. Lowden of Illinois, Mortimer L. Schiff of New York, William du Pont of Virginia, ex-Senator C. W. Watson of Maryland, E. Evert Macy and W. Averill Harriman of New York. It is felt by those responsible for the founding of the National Agricultural society that there should be in this country a national organization to which the farmers could look for help and guidance and which would be their mouthpiece in agricultural matters of national concern. Permanent headquarters for the society eventually will be established at Washington. CONVICTS FED TOO WELL. Chemists Say Inmates of State Institution Get Too Much Food. tution Get Too Much Food. Topeka, Kan.-The men confined in the Kansas penitentiary are fed better than is necessary for the work that is required of them, according to a report on the food served the prisoners by Professor E. H. S. Bailey of the chemical laboratories of the University of Kansas. The report has been fled with the civil service commission. The test was made of the foods served to the prisoners in December and January. The chemists collected samples of the twenty-four different articles of food furnished the prisoners, and only three were found to be below standard, and the quantity furnished each prisoner was more than sufficient for his needs. The cheese was of poor quality, and the pepper contained too many pepper shells. The bread, while nutritious, was not first class, due to a poor bakery at the prison. "Some of the inmates of the penitentiary are performing hard, muscular work." said the report, "but a large number are doing only moderate work, so that the average would not be much above moderate muscular work, which chemists have found can be done efficiently on food containing 3,400 calories or heat units daily. In no case was the food served at the prison below 4,000 calories a day, and in many instances the food was above 5,000 calories a day." "AN ETHER SOUSE." Prisoner Tells Judge Why He Stole Drug From Hospital. Los Angeles, Cal.-How and why he invaded the county hospital, stole a can of ether, a package of iodofem and a roll of bandages, told by H. L. McCaslin in Judge White's court, was declared by the court to be the most peculiar statement ever made before him. McCaslin described himself as "an ether souse" and pleaded guilty to the larceny charge. According to his story, his indulgence in the soporific dates back two years. He said: "One night I started to ride to work at Bakerfield on a motorcycle and on the way was struck by a car. They took me to a hospital to operate on my leg, and for the first time in my life I smelled ether. I thought it was the finest experience I ever had. Since then I have persuaded six more doctors to operate on me. Then I found I could buy the drug. "Lately I have been living in Pomon... On Orange day I brought some of the fruit from Pomona to the county hospital, where I met some of the boys who were there when I was a patient. I got a chance to get a big can and some things for my leg. Then I was arrested." Judge White sentenced McCaslin to ninety days in jail. MONEY IN WOODEN LEG. Body to Be Exhumed In Search For Woman's Wealth. St. Louis, Mp.—Charles Kroener of Detroit will have the body of Miss Elizabeth Hauck exhumed at Alton to look for money which he thinks she may have concealed in her wooden leg. When she died, Sept. 15, $700 was found in her clothing. Kroener, who was her guardian, thinks she must have had more money than that. Kroener also doubts whether the finding of the coroner's jury that she killed herself is correct. He is making an investigation and will place evidence in the hands of the state attorney and ask him to take action. Miss Hauck was thirty-five years old. She was formerly in the millinery business in St. Louis, at California avenue and Arsenal street. She set herself up in business with part of the $3,000 she received from a railroad company for the loss of her leg twenty years ago. On account of failing health she stored her millinery stock and went to Alton. SHE FAINTS AT WAR NEWS. Later Seized With Convulsions After Reading Newspaper Headlines New York—A well dressed woman gazed fixedly at headlines of newspapers on a stand at Fourteenth street and Sixth avenue for a few moments and then fainted. Later she was seized with convulsions. The hundreds attracted by her screams and struggles with two policemen heard her say she had lost two brothers in the war. Dr. Loughlin of St. Vincent's hospital diagnosed the case as acute dementia, probably caused by her bereavement, suddenly recalled by what she had read in the headlines. At Bellevue hospital the woman said she was Mollie Fogarty, but gave no address. She is about thirty-five years old. Three Brothers Lbse Eye Apiece. Albert Lea, Minn.—The right eye of Hugo Brenner, a young farmer, was torn from its socket the other day while he was cutting down a tree. This is the third accident of its kind in the Brenner family. While his brother William was playing mumble-the-peg recently his companion flipped the knife too high, and the sharp blade penetrated the left eye. Another brother was kicked in the right eye by a colt. Tombstone For a Hearth. Waynesburg, Pa.—Discovery that a tombstone had been used as a heartstone in the residence of Miss Jessie Baer, in East Greene street, has been made. In making some repairs the stone was removed, and on the underside was the inscription, "Elizabeth wife of George Heise, died Oct. 12, 1832, aged forty years, nine months and seventeen days." THE APPEAL. MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY MINISTER QUITS CHURCH BECAUSE MEMBERS SMOKE He Did Not Want Tobacco Used at Informal meetings of a Brotherhood. Members Bitterly Opposed Him. Jefferson City, Mo.—As the result of a controversy with the members of the local Presbyterian brotherhood over the question of whether there should be smoking at the informal meetings of that body, Rev. J. A. Cowling, pastor of the Presbyterian church of Jefferson City, resigned. Mr. Cowling was opposed to the use of tobacco by members of the brotherhood at their meetings and on one occasion openly suggested that smoking be not permitted. The members of the brotherhood, by common consent, went on with the smoking at the meetings. First one and then another member would bring along a box of cigars. The smoking controversy went on for several weeks, and gradually the relations between pastor and brotherhood became more strained, with the result that Mr. Cowling tendered his resignation and the congregation voted to accept it. LAW SURELY GIVES A PUZZLE TO SOLVE Owner of Bees Must Know Name of Every One Before He Can Swear Out a Warrant. Birmingham, Ala.—Becoming involved in a dispute over a trivial matter, two citizens of Montgomery county struck a snag in the law when a swarm of bees owned by one migrated to the home of the other. This renewed the trouble, and W. C. Frizzle, bailiff of the city court, was appealed to. "I want my bees," said the original owner. "They have gone to that fellow's home." Frizzle began an investigation to ascertain whether he had authority to return the bees to the rightful owner. After consulting many lawbooks this was his conclusion, as expressed in his own words: "I find that before you can obtain your bees you must have them arrested in the regular way. And before they can be arrested you must swear out an individual warrant against every bee in the swarm. I also find that before you can swear out an individual warrant against every bee you must know the name of each one." The rightful owner said he was willing to give his neighbor a warrant deed to one swarm of bees, but he did not know the name of each one in the swarm. So the bees are still in their new home. GIRLS WITH FLOWER NAMES Arrange a Club For the Study of Wild Plants. Mill Valley, Cal.-Out of the deep tangled wildwood of this hamlet, nesting at the base of Mount Tamalpals, has come a school children's club, unique at least in the nomenclature of its governing officers. The club has been organized for the study of wild flowers, which are now a gay pattern of many colors over the sloping hills of the countryside. The children, mostly girls, met and elected officers, as follows: President, Charlotte Rose; vice president, Margaret Leaf; secretary, Doris Plant; treasurer, Mary Moss; Directors, Violet White and Fern Murphy. They will begin at once their studies, which are to be prosecuted vigorously in all of their out of school hours. CHILD SAVES HOME Little Boy Fights Fire and Climbs on Chair to Telephone For Help. Lead, S. D.-Nerve and pluck exhibited by the five-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Mitchell saved both himself and the family home from destruction by fire, although the child was nearly overcome when the firemen rescued him. The little fellow had been left alone with a playmate while his parents were out, and they commenced to play with matches. Soon the bed was aire, and the flames spread. The other boy ran out, but the Mitchell child fought the flames with small pails of water, in the meantime climbing on a chair to reach the telephone, by which he notified the fire department. Chemicals quickly extinguished the blaze. Hens Lay Two Eggs a Day. Sandusky, O.-Henry McEllery, a farmer living near Milan, says he has built a henhouse so illuminated with acetylene gas that each day is divided into four periods, two of darkness and two of light so alternated that his hens have what they think is two days and two nights every twenty-four hours. "The result is an egg from each hen every time one of the artificial days dawns," said McEllery, who, fighting the high cost of living, refuses to protect his scheme. Gets Shortest Letter Elyria, O. -The shortest letter ever known in this section was received by James Penrod, constable in Sheffield township, from C. A. Johnson of Youngstown. It says, "As I have nothing to do I shall write, and as I have nothing to say I shall close." Defective Page TRIBE NOW DEAD. Ishi, Noted Aborigine, Succumbs to White Plague. ORIGIN MADE HIM FAMOUS. Shown as Survivor of Last Tribe of Deer Creek Indians of Yano Line. Lived on Victims of His Bow and Arrow. San Francisco—Ishl has been gathered to the land of his fathers. Last of the Deer Creek Indians, tribe of Yano, Ishl has gone to the happy hunting grounds. He died at the University of California hospital, a victim of the "white plague," disease of the paleface. For several months the aborigine, who was captured in the wilds of northern Butte county in the summer of 1911, had been in ill health. A year ago he developed acute lung trouble, and at times he suffered greatly, bearing his pain with the stolocd of his kind. Just a few minutes before he passed away Ishl joked with Curator Gifford of the affiliated colleges. At that time he was in agony. Final relief came with a hemorrhage. Ishi, who never had seen any money of the white man until he was brought into civilization, left what he considered a fortune in worthly goods—about $550 and personal effects. With the common desire of all California Indians, Ishi labored to accumulate wealth. Unlike the members of most tribes, whose standing is rated by what they give away, Ishi, with the characteristics of California and British Columbia Indians, hoarded his pennies, which he earned in various ways. His estate was taken in charge by the public administrator. Ishi, living the life of a savage in Butte county, stole a calf in the summer of 1911, and officers of the law ran him down. They were amazed to discover the thief was a primitive creature, clad in animal skins and armed only with a bow and arrow. The prisoner was taken to the Butte county jail, and it was there that T. T. Waterman, assistant professor in anthropology, pronounced him to be the only surviving member of the lost tribe of Deer Creek Indians of the Yano line. The scientific world was greatly interested in Professor Waterman's announcement, and Ishi became famous. He was brought to this city and lodged at the affiliated colleges on Sept. 4, 1911. After months of patient effort Professor Waterman was able to talk with Ishi. What he learned from the captive left no doubt in his mind that Ishi really was the last of the savage tribe of Deer Creek. Ishi adapted himself to the ways of the white man. He built himself a home on the grounds of the affiliated colleges, where he was the object of much curiosity. He attended lectures by Professor Waterman and other savants of the State university. In May, 1914, Ishi took Dr. A. L. Kroeber, head of the affiliated colleges museum, and Dr. Saxton T. Pope to Butte and showed them his former haunts, reverting to his skins and bows and arrows. The report of Dr. Koeber and Dr. Dr. conferred the belief of Ishi's descent. KILL 2,000 RABBITS IN DRIVE California Farmers Wreak Vengeance on Field Pests. Stockton, Cal.-It is estimated 2,000 jack rabbits were killed in the south San Joaquin district and at least one coyote met his fate in the rabbit drive held by the south San Joaquin farmers under the direction of Ed Powers of Manteca and county farm bureau officials. Hunters from all parts of the country gathered in the south San Joaquin during the morning, and when the chase started at 9:30 o'clock there were more than 400 shotguns pointed out toward the hiding places of the long legged jacks. The march on the rabbits lasted from 9:30 in the morning until after 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and during the afternoon hundreds of automobile parties visited that part of the country to see the hunters and others gathering up the slain field pests. MONKEYS SCARE CO-EDS Human Skeleton Placed Near Girl's Dormitory Also Causes Terror. Alliance, O.-Five stuffed monkeys taken by students from the museum of Mount Union college and placed at strategic points near the entrance of Elliott hall, the girls' dormitory, frightened the co-eds when they left the dormitory. Scarcely had they recovered from their terror when they saw a human skeleton dangling from a tree near by. It, too, had been taken from the museum. The library also was entered, and books and catalogues were disarranged. As a result an investigation is being made. Brilliant Heads Are Wanted Winsted, Conn.-P. Davis Oakey of Hartford, who is not only a congressman, but president of the Bald Head Club of America, is enrolling as members of the organization the baldheaded members of congress, it has been learned by John Rodemeyer of Canaan, founder of the club. Mr. Oakey does not intend that any member of congress with a three inch bare spot on his scalp shall escape enrollment. HID HUSBAND'S FALSE TEETH. Jefferson Sweare That Is the Way His Wife Gift Money From Him. money from Him. Pittsburgh—it behooves all married tightwads who wear false teeth to beware. Often the subject of ridicule, artificial teeth have at last been found to serve a practical purpose in domestic life. Frank Jefferson in divorce court told a harrowing story of the manner in which his wife had frequently forced him to "come across" with money by the simple expedient of taking his false teeth and hiding them. The odd thing, to Jefferson's way of thinking, was that even when he waxed angry his wife would refuse to return his teeth. Only Uncle Sam's coin of the realm would persuade her that her husband's molars were essential and necessary to his daily existence. Mrs. Jefferson's side of the case was terse and to the point—her husband had refused her the money she believed she was entitled to as lady of the house. Consequently she took these measures to get it. USES SPOONS TO SAVE LIFE. Knife and Rubber Tube Also Doctor's Implements In Operation. Elkins, W. Va.-With two tin teaspoons, a pocketknife and a piece of rubber tubing as his instruments Dr. H. W. Daniel of the Elkins hospital performed an operation on a woman apparently dying of diphtheria and saved her life, it was learned. Called to the mountain home of Mrs. Thurman Coberly, the doctor found the woman unconscious. Having no surgical instruments with him and realizing that death was near he made an incision in the woman's windpipe with his knife, and, using the teaspoons bent double as retractors, he inserted the rubber tube. Respiration was restored, and within a few hours the patient regained consciousness, and it is said that her recovery is expected. ODDLY HEARS OF LEGACY. Benefactor Learns of Bequest After He Nearly Drowned. Gloucester City, N. J.-Through an account published of the fact that he had been rescued from drowning when he fell overboard while unloading coal at the Gloucester ferry wharf, Frank Taylor of 402 South Fourth street received word that he had been left a legacy by a relative in South Jersey, who died several months ago. An ant wrote from Deerfield, N. J., stating that they had been endeavoring to find him for several months and that they had read in a Philadelphia newspaper of his accident and hastened to notify him that when the relative died he had been mentioned in the will for a portion of the estate, which consisted of a farm and agricultural implements. FIRST TIME ON STEAM CARS AT AGE OF 82 Kansas City.—Not until his six-year-old grandson took him in charge did Peter Franklin McCubbin of Virginia, eighty-two years old, ride on a railroad train. He passed through this city recently with the grandson, Morris Williamson, on the way to Salt Lake City, where he will live with his daughter, Morris' mother. At the Union station Mr. McCubbin showed a keen interest in things around him and said he had enjoyed his trip a great deal. "It wasn't because I was afraid of trains that I didn't ride on them," he said. "I just never had occasion to go anywhere I couldn't drive. "I raised a family of eight children, and, although they all insisted, I never went to see any of them. They usually came home once a year and saved me the trouble. My wife traveled considerably, considering, and one of my daughters has been to Europe, but I always got along fine on the farm. When I got tired there I would hitch up and drive to Pittsville, and if the conversation there didn't suit me I would drive over to Eldredge, twenty miles away." HE BET ON THE ATHLETICS. Georgia Tax Collector Now Admits $11,000 Shortage In Accounts Waycross, Ga.—After losing more than $3,000 belonging to the city of Waycross in bets laid in the chances of the Philadelphia Athletics to win the world's series of 1914 Alex C. Lowther, city clerk and tax collector of Waycross, attempted to regain the money lost by using other sums belonging to the city until his accounts were more than $11,000 short, according to a letter from Lowther made public by Mayor Scott T. Heaton. Lowther in his letter says he expects to repay the money taken. He returned the keys to the city vault. Loses $150 In Ice Hole. Waukesha, Wis.-While looking at Robert Hine cut holes in the ice on Pewaukee lake Carl Zinn of Milwaukee, who, with friends, was spending the day at the Zinn summer home. jerked a handkerchief from his pocket. A pocketbook containing $150 in bills and other valuable papers, which were in the pocket, fell into the hole. GIRL WITH "MOVIEITIS" IS SENT TO A HOME FOR CURE She Cut Off Hair as Cowgirls Do and Wrecked Rooms a la Film Comedie Paterson, N. J.-Rose Rosemin, fifteen, of this city, was arraigned before Judge Klenert in the juvenile court, charged with incorrigibility. She had cut off her long brown tresses, and she explained that cowgirls in the movies did it, and she wanted to be a cowgirl. "I guess you've got a plain case of 'movielets,'" said the court, "so I am going to send you to the Florence Crittention home until your hair grows again. Perhaps a stay in the home will cure you." "Why, it'll take a year for my hair to grow back again," cried Rose. "I can't stay there all that time." "It will all depend on your behavior," said the court. Detectives testified that Rose had wrecked rooms in homes where she had been employed because she had seen it done in the movies. SPEECHLESS A YEAR, SHE SUDDENLY TALKS Family of Woman Is Astonished When She Says, "I Feel Better Now." New York—Suddenly regaining the power of speech she lost through a stroke of paralysis a year ago, Mrs. William Cuppimaging, thirty years old, of College Point, N. Y., startled her family by remarking, "I feel better now." Her long period of silence had been broken while she suffered from what was believed to be grip. She said she first felt a violent snap in her head. This was followed by a buzzing sensation which passed away and left her feeling much better. Finally her speech came in whispers and then was loud enough for those at the bedside to hear. Dr. Harry M. Biffar, his physician, was greatly astonished at the outcome of the case, for he never expected that Mrs. Cuppimaging would ever talk again. He said he thought the loss of her speech was due to the rupture of a blood vessel. A blood clot formed, and the physician used treatment to dissolve it. CRUSHED BY JUNK IRON. Victim In a Car Released When Cries Attracted Train Crew. Lafayette, Ind—When a westbound Wabash freight train was passing through Lafayette recently the shrieks of a man in distress were heard, and the train was brought to a standstill. When the train crew investigated it was found that James Fisk of Springfield, Mass., aged twenty-four, had become imprisoned in a car of loose junk iron. Fisk had been "beating" his way on the train, and a short time before the cries were heard the train had broken in two. When the cars came together with a crash a mass of junk iron slid over on top of Fisk's legs. At the time he was sleeping in the end of a gondola car, and it was impossible for him to free himself. He could not be rescued until the car had been bumped several times to jar the mass of iron away from his legs. He was taken to the hospital in a terribly crushed condition. His cries aroused hundreds of people from their sleep. It is probable he will recover. CHILDREN EXEMPT HIM. Father Receives a Canceled Tax Receipt When Sheriff Saves Saven Sons. Wichita, Kan.—James Gourley, an expressman, appeared at the Sedgwick county courthouse recently to pay his personal taxes, which amounted to $4.70. He did not have the money, but he took along with him his seven children, all boys under thirteen years old. "It'll work a hardship on me to pay this money," Gourley told Sheriff Frank Sarver, "as I've got my hands full feeding and clothing and keeping these children in school." County officials gathered around the sheriff's office and observed the family, all healthy, clean and happy. When Gourley left with his seven boys trailing behind him his personal tax receipt was marked paid and each of the children carried a quarter. SNOOZE JAILS JERSEY RIP. He Couldn't Support Wife While He Slept and Beat Her When He Woke. New Brunswick, N. J.-Sleeping may not be a crime, but a little ten day nap netted John Pelifey of this city ten days in the county jail. He was charged by his wife with nonsupport, and she testified that for ten days he had remained constantly in bed. She said he was in the habit of staying in bed for a week at a time and that he always celebrated the end of the nap by beating her. When court opened a constable was sent for Pelifey and turned him out of bed. It took three officers to dress him. Nurse Weds Soldier Patient. London.—Miss Alice Davis, a pretty Virginia girl, who has been nursing wounded soldiers at the County hospital, Dorchester, was married to one of her patients, Trooper Larkin of the Australian Imperial force, who was injured while fighting in the Gallipoll campaign. $2.40 PER YEAR OBREGON TO RULE Wife Believes He Eventually Will Become Mexico's Head. COUNTRY AGAINST SUFFRAGE. Women Only Desire to Make Homes Bright and Husbands Happy; but, However, Some Day They May Fight For Equality, Says General's Wife. El Paso, Tex.-Mrs. Alvaro Obregon is a singularly beautiful woman. Her face has a wholesome pallor. It is perfectly white, with the clearness of health. Her hair is as black as night. It is piled on her head in great shining masses. Her mouth is firm. Decision and strength of character are shown. But her eyes are big, black and flashing. Mrs. Obregon in a pretty morning gown recently sat in her husband's private car near the depot of the Central railroad in Juarez. Through the open door she had a glimpse of the Casas Grande mountains. "Do you believe in the duuena system under which Mexican and Spanish girls are brought up?" Mrs. Obregon was asked. "Decidedly, yes. It may curtail their pleasures, but it is safe. The Spanish and Mexican girls are the most innocent and unworldly girls in the world. [Name] Their minds never have been contaminated by any outside influences. They are brought up aloof from the world. They never see their sweethearts except in the presence of the duena. That is perfectly right, according to my ideas. It precludes the possibility of temptation." "Pardon me, senora, but were you courted under those conditions?" "Yes; General Obregon never saw me alone until after he married me." "Do you believe General Obregon eventually will become master of Mexico?" "I not only hope he will, but I believe he will. I have perfect faith in my husband's star." "Did you marry General Obregon because he is a hero who appealed romantically to your imagination?" "I married him because I loved him," replied Senora Obregon simply. "How long do you think it will be before he attains supreme power in Mexico?" "I cannot even guess." "Has there been a quarrel between General Obregon and President Carranza?" "None whatever. There has not been even the slightest friction. They are in perfect accord. I have no idea where that story started." "Do you believe in suffrage for Mexican women?" "No," was the prompt answer. "I do not disbelieve in it for American women, for I hardly think Mexican women are ready for it. Mexican women have their own problems. Suffrage is not yet one of them. Perhaps some day we may want the vote. "I cannot imagine our gentle Spanish women fighting for the ballot as the Anglo-Saxon women do. It is contrary to their natures. They are gently bred and nurtured. However, one never can tell what the turn of the wheel will bring. Our Mexican women have plenty of fire and spirit. Some day they, too, may fight for equality with men." "What are the present problems of Mexican women?" "To make their homes beautiful and attractive, to make their husbands happy, to rear their children to be fine men and women." "Is not that the duty of women everywhere?" "Perhaps, but it is peculiarly the problem of women of the Spanish races. They are raised with such a vastly different point of view regarding men than that of the women of the races of northern climes. Men are to them superior creatures. That is Spanish tradition. Its shackles bind closely." "Whether men are our superiors or not, they are at least stronger. Their position in the social scale is that of our protectors. They make the home for us. We beautify it." "You believe in the home woman in contradiction to the woman who takes part in public affairs?" "Yes, yet both, I suppose, have their places in the world." ARE YOU READ THE APPEAL?

Information from all parts of the country is to the effect that Rev. A. J. Carey, A. M., D. D., Ph. D., minister and warden of the Institutional Church, Chicago, will be one of the strongest candidates to come before the General Conference of the A. M. E. Church, which meets in Philadelphia in May. That his election is practically assured is the consensus of opinion among the well informed delegates leading preachers and prominent laymen. Dr. Carey has the indorsement of practically every person of prominence in Illinois. The A. M. E. ministers are for him to a man and have issued a circular letter in his behalf; the leading members of the bar, headed by Edward H. Morris, the foremost lawyer of the country have issued a printed endorsement; the leading physicians and surgeons, headed by Dr. Daniel H. Williams, the most famous physician and surgeon, have united in an endorsement, and men of every profession and calling, not only in Illinois but in every state in the union, have endorsed the militant pastor and, what is better, we have it on good authority that Dr. Carey's friends have secured pledges from enough delegates to make his election sure.

A general order has been issued by the state board of administration to the superintendents of all state institutions to remove immediately all signs such as "Keep off the grass" or "Keep out," "No admittance" and those designating certain days as visiting days. "These signs serve no good purpose and are very irritating," said Fred Kern of Belleville, president of the board. "The institutions are for the people, and if they want to walk on the grass there is no good reason why they should not. Hereafter every day is to be visiting day in the state charitable institutions, so that is another sign to be abandoned. "If institution rules are violated by visitors attendants can tell them in a nice way. What we are trying to do is to suppress the atmosphere of gloom which generally clouds the happiness of the inmates of charitable institutions." The action of the state board is a very sensible thing and shows that democracy is making some progress after all. "BASIS OF SOCIAL STRIFE." In a recent address before the Sunday Evening Club, Bishop Charles D. Williams handed out some straight goods. We quote three sterling paragraphs: "Nine-tenths of our social strife come from trying to know people by labels or numbers. We require a great deal more temperance and virtue from the tramp who comes to the back door and asks for cold victuals than we do from the society youth who comes into the drawing-room and asks for our daughter's hand. "Think of the simple Russian, German and French peasants across the sea tonight, murdering each other. If you went through the ranks most of them wouldn't know what it is all about. They are doing it just because some one in authority has labeled the other fellow—'enemy.'" "The secret of nearly all our hatred and indifference toward our neighbors is because we don't know them. We are all slaves to names and titles; we hate to face realities. We are getting morally color blind to the finer shades of right and wrong. Often we are afraid to be alone with our real selves for fear we should get acquainted with them." HANDS OFF PUBLIC SC In a strong report to the Religious Education association, Dr. George A.

Coe, professor of religious education in the Union Theological seminary, New York, gives reasons why church and public schools should be separate: "The opposing religious bodies are still watchful of one another. No workable plan for increasing the religious functions in the public schools is likely to be agreed upon. "The argument for teaching the Bible in the public schools on the ground of its literary merits seems to have had little weight because it has been advanced by religionists from evidently religious motives. "The forces that are devoting themselves assidiously to the reform of religious education are rarely, if ever, eager to commit religious functions to the state. The demand that the public schools provide religious education proceeds in large measure from persons who feel that something needs to be done, but have not yet become absorbed in the details of the reconstruction that is already under way within the churches." The reasons are logical and those who wish to carry religious teaching into the public schools are enemies of the state. MIXING THE RACES The South, that is the white South is not opposed to racial admixture, but being at heart thoroughly immoral it insists that the mixing be done in an illegal manner. The mixing which has already been accomplished was starred by the white South. It began in the days of slavery, when the white master forced the black slave women to bear children, who followed the condition of their mothers and became slaves. A few masters manumitted their half breed children, but they were the exceptions to the general rule. Many mansown offspring for sale and in time theers made a practice of breeding their raising of children for the slave markets became a recognized Southern industry. Since the abolition of slavery, the white South, claiming Christ as its guiding star, has enacted laws making Christian marriage a felony, thus directly aiding immorality. The white South has in every way endeavored to humiliate and degrade its colored people the majority of whom have more or less Caucasian blood. Search history through; read the atrocities of the barbarian invasions of the early days, read the barbarieties of the Middle Ages; read of the Inquisition; read the story of the French Revolution; read of Russia's persecution of the Jews; read of civilized (?) Europe's rape of Africa; read the horrors of the Christians' war now devastating Europe. Add all of these together and they will not equal in blackness what Southern white people have meted out to their own sons and daughters to their own brothers and sisters, who are of a slightly darker hue. It is the blackest page in the annals of the world. "POISE, LOGIC AND COURAGE." Consul at Vladivostok, Eminent Scholar, at and Personal Friend of the Lauds THE APPEAL.

"Charity makes for slaves, cowards and sycophants," said "Mother Jones" of Colorado mine field fame, recently. Her words are true. Men cheat their employees out of what is their just due and become rich and when they have accumulated millions they pose as "philanthropists" and endeavor to perpetuate their names by giving money for libraries or "charities," or Christian (?) associations. Instead of being great philanthropists, these men, in many cases, are simply thieves who really ought to be in prison for having robbed their fellow men. No class has suffered more from the "philanthropies" of these rich thieves than the colored people and their nefarious work has been aided by so-called colored leaders who have taken the role of public mendicants and have begged for money to organize jimcrow institutions and thus prevent their own class from securing their rights as American citizens. The product of the segregated institution is usually a crop of young colored people with slavish instincts; cringing cowards, servile sycophants. Great God deliver the people from such charity and give them justice. PLUTOCRATS DOING HARM Says the Saturday Evening Post: "The modern plutocratic ideal is to soar far away from the common lot and then volplane gracefully back to it. Why take the trouble to soar at all? Why not distribute the millions for the common weal before they are collected in the capacious individual reservoir?" Many of the men who have made great fortunes by questionable methods in some cases, and in nearly every case, by paying employees low wages. Carnegie made a great fortune and is now aiding race prejudice by endowing jimcrow libraries in the South and Rosenwald the Jewish multimillionaire is using some of his money to aid the Christians in proving that their religion is a fake by building jim crow Y. M. C. A's all over the country. AMERICANIZATION The basic need in America at this moment, and for many years to come, is the fusion of our heterogeneous population into an American entity. If we fought a civil war to prevent geographical division, we should find it worth while now to make some deliberate and mighty effort to prevent a more insidious and fatal division. This effort should not be spasmodic and sporadic. It should be persistent and sweeping. The foregoing from the Chicago Tribune hits the nail on the head. And it is especially necessary for the colored people to stop trying to segregate. The colored person who advocates jimcrowism in church or state is an enemy of the Nation. TRUE CHRISTIANS The Chicago Tribune recently published in its photogravure section a page of pictures showing the eight Christian Science churches. All of the edifices are classic in their pure simplicity of architecture and they are typical of the true Christianity of the Christian Scientists. These eight churches are the only ones in Chicago that are absolutely free from race prejudice. Jews and Gentiles, white and colored people all meet together and worship God in the beauty of brotherly love. It is an inspiring sight to visit one of these churches where the lines of creed and race have been eliminated and the spirit of Christ reigns supreme. A. BRAVE GOVERNOR Governor Dunne of the state of Illinois is a inst. and brave man. Illinois is a just and brave man. He has just signed the sixth reprieve he has granted to Elston Scott, a colored murderer under sentence of death at Murphysboro, Ill. The last reprieve stays the hanging until July 14, because Sheriff James White of Jackson county has steadfastly refused to grant the governor assurances that the execution would be conducted decently. It seems that the sheriff has planned to make the hanging a gala public event, but Governor Dunne is determined that the state shall not be so disgraced. Members of the Haitian senate who persisted in holding a meeting in spite of the warning of Rear Admiral Caperton, in command of the American forces, were dispersed at Portau-Prince by a detachment of gens d'armes commanded by an American officer. The senators protested but offered no resistance. This procedure seems much like the "operations" of the Germans in Belgium and Serbia, which have shocked our "humanitarian" president. Gen. Juan Jimenes of Santo Domingo has resigned the presidency of that republic. He took this action to prevent armed intervention by the United States. Any man who gives up his alms and ambitions for the good of his country is a patriot, and Gen. Jimenes' action puts him into the patriot class. Voliva the prophet of Zion City insists that the earth is flat. Many years ago, Rev. John Jasper of Richmond, Va., declared that the "Sun do move." He attracted considerable attention, and that's just about all that Volva desires at this time. REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION. Georgia will send two complete sets of delegates to the Republican national convention, and both will go uninstructed. They are: Hickson-Wing, H. S. Jackson, of Atlanta; J. M. Barnes, of Thomson; Henry Lincoln Johnson, colored of Atlanta, and B. J. Davis, colored also of Atlanta. Johnson wing—Walter H. Johnson, of Columbus; Henry Blun, of Savannah; J. W. Lyons, colored, of Augusta, and H. A. Rucker, colored, of Atlanta. Louisiana white and colored Republicans will send contesting 'delegations to Chicago conventions.' The lily-white met and elected twelve delegates. The colored men appeared at the Grueenewald Hotel and demanded admission, but were refused by the hotel management saying that colored men could not participate in convention at that hostelry. The colored men charged that this was the ruse by which the lily-white barred them. They will send a full delegation. Frank J. Hogan and Dr. Edward W. Williston were elected delegates, and Julius I. Peyser and George W. Robertson, alternates, from the District of Columbia to the Republican national convention to be held in Chicago next month, according to the ballots cast at the primaries last night and officially counted Monday night by the pay returning board at the office of Attorney G. C. Gertman in the Century building. The Hogan-Williston ticket was accorded 5,614 votes of a total of 7,246 cast at the primaries, by official count. The Miller-Chase ticket, composed of Robert I. Miller, Calvin Chase, delegates: Arthur B. Hayes and Dr. Albert R. Collins, alternates, got 1,603 votes. The Bradshaw-Marshall ticket, composed of Aaron Bradshaw and Dr. Charles H. Marshall, delegates; Angus Early and L. Melendez King alternates, got 1,029 votes. --- VITAL PRINCIPLE AT STAKE (From the Christian Register.) The enactment of an ordinance for the segregation of colored people in St. Louis by a majority of over 34,000 votes will give much impetus to the movement that has acquired headway in several cities with a mixed population, where significance is likely to be strongly enhanced. It is not so much a judgment of the question at issue as it is an expression of the wish of most white people not to have colored residents in their neighborhood. The vital principle at stake, the right of citizens to hold and use their property with all the rights other citizens enjoy, is not decided. It is shown how undesirable it is to commit to a general decision which belongs to courts, and which cannot properly or intelligently be considered by the public, especially under the influence of a prejudice. It shows that ignorance is not confined to the ignorant alone, for citizens of the higher class showed gross ignorance of the point at stake. Fortunately courts still exist, and competency is not quite overwhelmed by the landslide of mere mass. The obiter dicta of the Supreme Court of Missouri, in the constitutionally rendered upholding the constitutionally valid indicate positively and clearly what its judgment will be as to the rights of colored citizens under the law. Reforms Needed at Home. (From The Christian Register.) Race bitterness makes argument, or discussion, or any effort to come to a common understanding quite useless. Where much racefeeling is engaged, reason is neutralized. With some people, questions of the rights of colored people under the Constitution, of the people who have become impossible. They simply do not discuss the subject. While this is the case in this country, we have enough to do in cleansing our own blood of germs of conflict without thinking it our main business to reach across the water in restraint of war. War is incipient among us in these matters, and cruel barbarities frequent enough, to keep us busy reforming ourselves.illy Sunday speaks out emphatically robotically and ungrammatically against most every wrong in the country—except our prejudice. If he wants to show that a real brave man, not afraid to tackle anything, and do some good where it is most needed, let him speak out against race prejudice. All American Citizens (From Our Dumb Animals, Boston, Mass.) Four colored men shot to death and two burned alive in Early county, Georgia, December 30. Sam Bland and Will Stewart lynched in Dodge county, Georgia. Another colored man hanged to a telephone pole in Forest City, Arkansas. A colored woman, Mrs. Cordelia Stevenson, whose son was accused of burning a white man's barn, taken from her and hanged by a mob near Columbia, Mississippi. A few wounded record. All American citizens. Had one of them been killed on a steamship sunk by a submarine what a flood of patriotic oratory would have been poured forth the name of the "nation's honor." Apparently it makes a difference where American citizens are killed and who kills them. Hates the Term "Negro." "I hate the term Negro because it is being used in terms of hatred. It is the cause of the segregation of the Negro; it is being used in contempt in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchising him; and it is an excuse for lynching him.

(From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realy factor at work present to bring about both a physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bols and Washington feel that its repetition, and a nausea, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly insulted as applied to millions of colored people, but also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically on the present, anywhere in the world, for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to Guineas, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. In derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negro-head, Negro-fy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. d. Its feminine form, "Negress," is justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. e. It when the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking, talks about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigger." g. As stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, Asiatics and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours, OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. Must Judge A Group by its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston Mass.) No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with the best as well as the worst of the class. We compare many persons who live in the South, and think they have the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come to know and sympathetic relations with large of that race whom their Southern friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people better than the first. They know aspirations among them that the others know, or, knowing, do not enter into an appreciate; they know capabilities by direct experience with the best of the race which others are virtuous of; they know qualities which only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded. If those who know the colored race through the mass and by observation merely could know what individuals are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageous did with themselves, they would revise their judgments and possibly soften their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored race the values that come from knowing how many of that race are the best of the highest abilities and in the clearest旱. No estimate is worth much which does not take people at their best. (Gerald Stanley Lee in Mount Tom). I am a human being.

G. Holland. Mollire! Though the cathedrals quarrel together and sing praises with siege-guns to their own little foolish national souls, and rain bombs on each other's naves, I take my stand by the great bells ringing in their towers, by the souls of their poets overriding the years, by the prayers and songs of their heroes, artists, inventors, by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all alike. I will not say of any one nation what I will not say of the others; and I will not say of any man what I will not say of myself. OUR NEED OF JUXTAPOSITION (From the Boston Guardian.) That we much rather be, and associate among ourselves, is a saying by Colored Americans that has become almost trite. That is a mistake; it is a feeling of avowed cowardice and inferiority. It is an utter impossibility of two races to subscribe to a common government, and, at the same time, to own its salvation. The "theory" has been tried and resulted into a ghastly failure; instead of making for harmony and cordial good feeling between two races, it has increased race hatred and antagonism in leaps and bounds. We have heeded too long the advice from false and treacherous leadership that resistance is wrong, that it only breeds race hatred and antagonism; that the thing for it is to get property and other rights to follow. We have followed this "advice" fully and have been rewarded in terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, anti-intermarriage—which is all of the blackest pieces of legislation, since that it leaves our women defenseless and at the mercy of white brutes — separate schools, jimcrow cars, and even legislating to exclude the Negro immigration. These are the cells resulting from "non-resistance" by our ourselves." That with the same degree of efforty and terrible legislation with which our property is taken and confiscated, with this same efforty and legislation will our political and manhood rights be taken from us. That is a fact. Every congress of fers legislation degrading and imminent to our well being. Race prejudice, therefore, can only be worn down. Constitution. We must send our children to get ourselves, to mix institutions and other places, where we can mix with the other races consequently become accustomed to one another. ABOVE ALL THINGS WE MUST WELCOME AND PRACTICE JUXTAPOSITION. 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 the rapidity with which this national crime has spread, the barbarism which it is committed and the utter disgraceful complacency with which it is regarded, should arouse the conscience of the country in one united protest against its further spread and Have Learned to "Love, Honor and Obey."

Allen, enroute to their home in Chicago, were in the city a couple of days this week. They had just completed a successful tour of Western Canada. They were quite proud of their trip. They have been visiting the company and give samples of their progress each Sunday, wherever they may be. They stopped with Mrs. T. E. Franklin of St. Anthony avenue. The meeting in honor of the birthday anniversary of the martyr, John Brown, that was held under the auspices of the St. Paul branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People at St. James A. M. E. church last Tuesday evening was very poorly attended, much to the displeasure of the people. But those who attended by their presence enjoyed the occasion. Dr. Val Do Turner presided. Rev. J. P. Sims opened with prayer. This was a regular meeting of the association and the regular business was transacted. The principal thing done was the passage of a motion to send $50 to the National Association to be placed in the legal fund to aid in the management of the negotiation transaction of the routine business Miss Martha Goins, representing Pilgrim Baptist Sunday school, read an admirable paper on John Brown. She was followed by Mr. R. H. Harris, represented St. James A. M. E. Sunday school. Messrs. C. H. Mitchell, Martin Brown and J. Q. Adams acted as judges and recommended that each of the contestants should be awarded a prize. In the end, some gold N. A. A. C. P. button, Mrs. Val Do Turner and Atty. W. T. Francis also eulogized the martyr in a very acceptable manner. After the meeting refreshments were served by the ladies of the One More Effort club. The "4 A" will give a stag whist party in its "gym" at Union Hall, Kent and Aurora streets, next Monday evening, May 15, beginning at 8:30 oclock. Everybody invited. This event not meant tombstone only, but every one who wishes to go. Prizes will be awarded. Come and take a hand if you feel lucky. The Tri-State Automatic Telephone System will probably be "cut over" within the next ten days. This is an immense engineering feat that has taken the labor of many men and millions of dollars to complete. The "cut over" in all probability will be made at midnight next Saturday night, while most of the subscribers are soundly ill, so when singing Sunday morning will be able to call any of their friends, who are also subscribers, without depending upon "Central," by just manipulating the dial on every automatic phone.

The Tuskgee Institute Quintette, accompanied by Mr. Chas. Winter Wood, spent three days in St. Paul and Minneapolis and one day in Duluth. On Sunday morning they sang at St. James A. M. E. church to a very large congregation. At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, accompanied by Peavey S. Johnson, they appeared at the First Church, in company with Mr. Joseph E. Minneapolis, they sang at the Westminster Presbyterian church at Minneapolis. Dr. Bushnell and his congregation gave the singers a very warm reception and enjoyed the selections rendered. Many friends were made for the school. On Monday morning they appeared at Macalester College and rendered several selections to the student body. At 3 o'clock, through the kindness of Mr. Wood, who placed his 7-passenger Cadillac at their service, they sang at the Minneapolis and St. Paul, and were then driven to the Plymouth Congregational church where they entertained a large audience. On Tuesday morning the Quintette sang at the University of Minnesota to an audience which packed the University Theater to the doors, and where many were unable to gain admittance. It was the desire of the faculty to have them remain over and repeat the concert, but an engagement in Duluth prevented their doing so. On Wednesday noon they sang before the Commercial Club of Duluth and at 7 p. m. at the Hotel Holland where they were greatly appreciated. At 8:15 p. m. they appeared before a rather small but responsive audience at the First M. E. Church. The evening was stormy and cold which accounted for the small attendance. On the Northern Pacific train at 10:40 for St. Paul, thence to Chicago, having completed to date over ten thousand miles in their six months' tour through the West and Pacific Coast. They have one more engagement which is at St. Louis on the 13th午 and, then to their Alma Mater, after having one of the most successful trips in the history of the Quintette. 6 It is wonderful how much good can be brought about by the efforts of one person, when his heart is in the right place and his soul is in the work. A short time ago the city was wrought up over the discovery of the deplorable conditions at the poor farm. The investigation that was inaugurated by County Commissioner M. J. Carr showed that the inmates were not served with butter, eggs or milk, except on special occasions, though these commodities were produced there and sold to the city hospital, while the inmates of the poor farm were glad to have the opportunity of fishing articles of food from the garbage that was returned from the prison. Mr. Carr brought about a change in the superintendent and matron—who also hearts—and now the unfortunate inmates have plenty of milk, butter, eggs, etc. Formerly they were served individually, now dishes of food are placed on the tables and each person is permitted to help himself or herself. Arrangements are also being made to have rest rooms on every floor of the house, with cots conveniently arranged, and hereafter when any of the inmates is sick he is at once removed to the city hospital.
