ATTACKS MADE IN DARKNESS Figures Show That It Has Taken More Than a Ton of German Bomba For Every British Man, Woman and Child Who Has Been Killed—Casualties Steadily Decrease. London.—In the last two years there have been forty-one Zeppelin raids on England — twenty-three in 1915 and eighteen in 1916. This summary does not take into account the many aero and sea plane attacks and the numerous abovive attempts which have been driven back at the coast or balked by shifting winds and misty weather. If in these raids we take three Zeppelins as the average number and allow three tons of explosives and incendiary bombs as the capacity of each dirigible we have an aggregate of 370 tons of death dealing missiles. Supposing each bomb weighs fifty pounds, we have approximately 15,000 as the number of bombs in the North sea in the last two years. Of course it is possible that the German authorities are the only persons who know the real figures, but I think the COUNT ZEPPELIN. rough estimate above is not far wrong, says Arthur Draper in the New York Tribune. The British government has made public the number of casualties after each raid, and these aggregate 356 dead and 980 wounded. This means that it has taken more than a ton of casualties from the woman and child who has been killed. It is interesting to recall that a military expert once figured that for every soldier it killed the enemy must expend his weight in lead. Before the British perfected their defenses against aerial attacks, one life was much greater, the casualties seem decreasing as the difficulties of attack increased.

Keeth with a twisted back, broken two years ago, and a stump where his left leg was amputated a year later, has sacrificed his remaining leg.

It will be worn on the right breast or on the right lapel of the jacket with plain clothes only. London.-Some day the stretcher bearers who are working steadily throughout the big attack ought to have a monument all to themselves. They have already earned it by their magnificent courage under terrific fire. One officer of a Manchester "Pals" regiment which fought at Mametz and elsewhere is now in a London hospital, his life saved by the courage of the dashless through a curtain of fire to rescue when he felt helplessly wounded. He says that all the time the stretcher bearers were doing things which deserved the distinguished conduct medal, and he told at least one man who he thinks has won it. This is a man so deaf that he was unfit for work in the trenches. He was a cheerful sort, and the men liked the queer things that happened when he failed to hear an order. Every one but the deaf man stood to H. Goodall. During the big battle he was ordered to the clearing station just behind the lines, but he spent the whole day under the murderous fire of the machine guns and the artillery between the first line trenches and a shorter trench far advanced in the most exposed part of the ground, picking up the wounded, twisting them on to his broad back and staggering back with them under fire until he reached a place of comparative safety. Then he went back into the thick of it again. He was the one man in that attack, the company who did not hear the awful noise, the shells, but calmly gave a silent deed to "Pals" whom he has so often amuses are now hoping that he will get the medal he deserves. CRUISER TO CARRY RELIEF Des Moines Also Will Take on American Refugees at Jaffa. New York—Felix M. Warburg, chairman of the joint distribution committee for Jewish war relief, announced that the United States cruiser Des Moines would leave soon for Alexandria and proceed to Jaffa to transport the medical supplies sent by the committee for the hospitals in Palestine.

OFFICE BOY NOW MUST BE A CHAUFEUR TOO Business Men Send Youths to Drive Cars Around Block. Philadelphia.--Requirements for office boys have automatically risen with the new ordinance regulating the parking of automobiles in central streets of this city. Advertisements for "Boy Wanted" now conclude with something like this: "Must be experienced in driving motorcars or willing to learn." Here's the reason: Suspects who drive their cars to their offices in the city in the morning cannot leave the autos parked in the street as they could formerly. In section of Chestnut street where there are several big office buildings, for example, cars must not be left standing for more than half an hour at a time. So every half hour the business man sends his office boy to the street to drive his auto around the block. If his office boy isn't a chauffeur the business man goes himself. But this takes valuable time, and, added to the startup of the car and moving it around the block sixteen times a day for six days a week, it costs money. Hence the demand for office boys who are also chauffeurs. SPORTSMEN PLAN TO WIPE OUT THE ENGLISH SPARROW SPORTSMEN PLAN TO WIPE OUT THE ENGLISH SPARROW Will Ask Governor of Every State to Aid In Work. New York—The League of American Sportsmen, whose object is the preservation of wild life, is considering the question of inaugurating a nation wide campaign for the destruction of the English sparrow. Its officials say this bird has made such headway here that it is driving out the smaller insectivorous birds and that it has become a question of whether we will have only the English sparrow to represent our bird life or destroy it and regain some fifty species or useful and beautiful birds that used to inhabit farms and countryside all over the land. The league intends to issue a proclamation declaring war on the English sparrow and setting aside a week, postponed in April or May, to be devoted especially to waging it. The governor of every state will be asked to aid the work. Printed instructions as to the plan of the campaign will be sent to the mayor of all incorporated cities and villages, to the heads of the school systems in every county, to college presidents, to principals of preparatory schools, to the boys scouts in each state, and to the teachers expected to extend sympathy and aid. Four principal methods of action will be employed: Tearing down the nests, trapping the birds, shooting them under police supervision and under licenses issued by the police authorities, and in cities where water pressure is available, turning the hose on the bat at night after they have gone to roost. Mrs. Vanick Takes Active Part In Her Birthday Celebration Sussex, N. J. - Sunday, the her six children, twenty grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren, to say nothing of a host of relatives, friends and neighbors. Mrs. Sarah Van Sickle of Wantage township, two miles from here, celebrated her one hundredth birthday. She took an active part in the celebration and urged the younger ones to dance and play games while she lived in New Jersey. Mrs. Van Sickle was born and has lived in this part of New Jersey all her life. She said that her health was good and that she felt no older than she did thirty years ago. She is still able to read without the aid of glasses and is a daily reader of the newspapers. The sewing machine still works on her time, but she is not able to thread the needle as dexterously as once. Alien Residents to Be Taught English at Night Classes. Bayonne, N. J.-In an effort to Americanize this city Preston H. Smith, superintendent of schools here, will institute this fall and winter night classes for the instruction of its population in the English language. Of its 70,000 inhabitants Bayonne has 35,000 who speak foreign tongues. He will adopt the language of the republic Mr. Smith believes that it will be better for business, better for education and much better in case of strikes. As he pointed out, when one side in a labor dispute does its arguing in a speech in comprehensible to the other side there is not much chance of a satisfactory settlement. Financier Some Farmer Too. Winsted--Connecticut farmers must take off their hats to George B. Case of Wall street, New York. who has on his estate in Norfolk one of the best crops of corn ever raised in the state.

Arden House, Built on a Mountain Summit and Overlooking Surrounding Landscape For Many Miles, Represented E. H. Harriman's Idea of What Country House Should Be. New York—In consideration of "love and affection" Mrs. E. H. Harriman has transferred to her son, William Averil Harriman, the Harriman home, Arden House, overlooking the Ramapo valley, just back of Arden, which was planned by the financier at the time of his death. William Averil Harriman, or W. Averil Harriman, as he is often known, is the oldest son of the late E. H. Harriman. He was graduated from MRS. WILLIAM H. HARRIS MRS. HARRIMAN AND HER SON. Yale in 1913 and married Miss Kitty Lanier Lawrence of Lenox, Mass. Sept. 21, 1915. Mr. Harriam is twenty-four years old. Since his marriage be and his wife have occupied a wing in Arden House which was added for their occupancy. Arden House, which is built on a mountain summit and overlooks the surrounding country of a great mile on the western threshold of the Hudson highlands, is said to have represented E. H. Harriam's ideal of what a country home should be. Mr. Harriam himself took an active interest in the planning of the house and of the 2,500 acres of park which surround it. At the time of his death it was uncompleted, but all final works done according to the plans which he designed. The total cost of the house and the grounds is estimated to have been more than $5,000,000. MAY GET CARNEGIE MEDAL Modest Montclair Youth Departed After Saving Girl Bather. Montclair, N. J.-Vernon Peterson, who saved a young woman from drowning at Water Witch, has been recommended for a Carnegie hero about to leave the water when he had to help and saw a girl struggling.

The girl, Miss Josephine Smith of Bay Head, Long Island, was unconscious when the shore was reached, but was resuscitated. Peterson, who is employed in the Ellison Orange, Department after the rescue, but his name was obtained by witnesses, who submitted it to the Carnegie institute. Pigeons War Messengers Washington.—The god of war has taken even the dove of peace and harnessed it to do his bidding. Perhaps not exactly the dove, but its next klin, the pigeon. Homing pigeons, for use in campaign work, have been adopted by the armies in the European conflict and have now become a part of Duke Seymour's military establishment. The bird's army now used its southern frontier, and army officers along the Rio Grande say these kinselfells of the bird of peace will soon be doing yeoman service. Seeks Shaving Soap; Finds Brother.

The occupant of the room proved to be his brother, from whom he had not heard in thirteenth years. WOULD ALTER "DIXIE." Music Teachers Want "Star Spangled Banner" Changed Also. New York.-At a conference of high school music teachers a committee was appointed to ask music publishers and the public school teachers to eliminate negro dialect from songs printed in the textbooks. Dr. Frank R. Rix, musical director of the education department, who was present at the conference, said: "My suggestions for these changes were made some time ago by me to the board of superintendents, but they were shelved, and I do not know what has become of them. The reasons for changing the darky dialect should appeal to any interested person. We want our children to learn pure English, not a dialect. Then also there are many foreign children in our schools. We are growing a Dialect confuses them. It is hard enough for them to learn our ordinary English. I think that the change ought to be made throughout the country." In "Star Spangled Banner," perilous fight" is be changed to "clouds of the fight," and the uniform key will be changed from B fat to A flat to make the song "In Dixie" "de" will be added to "the" and "nebber" to "never," among other things. KEEPS FISH FROM DROWNING Captain Kintz Would Get Medal H Perch Had a Carnegie. New York. — Captain Frank Kintz, master in the Taytug舟船 fleet of this city, recently became a fish life saver. Aboard the tug Captain Toby, Captain Kintz was in Occoquan with a tow from this city. A yellow perch a boy had caught had been left dangling on a string in the water until it was almost dead, not having strength enough to hold itself below the surface. Captain Kintz saw the fish and also his opportunity to save life even if it was only that of a fish, and a bony yellow perch at that. Reasoning that if it was water that drowned a human being it must be air that drowned a fish, Captain Kintz proceeded to apply aid and help the fish to get rid of the air. Holding it down in the water, he gently rubbed its sides, and bubbles of air rolled to the surface. About fifteen times this manipulation were necessary and the man flirted of its tail swam rapidly away. If there was a Carnegie among the fish Captain Kintz would surely be awarded a medal as a fish life saver. EXPLORES PALACE RUINS. Pennsylvania Museum Finds Discoveries of Growing Importance Philadelphia.—Further excavations in the palace of Menephalt by the expedition to Egypt of the University of Pennsylvania museum indicate that the palace is almost twice as large as was at first supposed. This makes him the most ancient Egypt, according to Dr. Clastence S. Fisher, head of the expedition. On account of the great heat the excavations temporarily have been discontinued, but the general outline of the ruins has been established. Dr. Fisher has found, in addition to the throne room where Moses and Aaron are supposed to have appeared before Pharaoh and demanded the release of the Israelites, many chambers and a notable vestibule with rows of enormous pillars, carved and colored. Many interesting and valuable relics which will enrich the university museum have been unearthed. DEFENDS SIDEWALK SKATING Montclair Champion Says It Helps Children's Morals. Montclair.-The controversy in this town over the use of the sidewalks, which was started when Mrs. John Haynes Lord protested to the authorities because children were allowed to use them for roller skating, bids fair to become a community issue. Mrs. Lord, who was injured by being run down by a bicyclist on a sidewalk a few years ago, has many supporters. Her attitude, however, is resented by others, chief among whom is Arthur P. Heyer, who was a candidate for town council and was elected. Mr. Heyer came out with another broadside. He believes that the streets could be made the greatest educational asset of any community if the people would look at the matter in the right way. He says skating in the open air makes children moral. LABORER HEIR TO $1,500,000. "I Don't Know What I Will Do With It." says Sevastianagenian. New Kensington, Pa.-Called from the plant of the Braeburn Steel company, where he was employed as a laborer at 25 cents an hour, Thomas was paid $10,000 and had fallen hitched to $1,500,000. The old man was staggered by the news and quit work for the day. "I don't know what I'll do with it," he said. Thomas and Frank Conlin came to America from Ireland thirty years ago. For five years they worked together to build a bridge, and it was going to Australia. Later it was reported he was making a fair living in the gold fields. Thomas has a son. To Build Great Hospital Ship Philadelphia. -Work will begin at once at the Philadelphia navy yard on the $2,200,000 hospital ship, to be constructed here for the United States navy, according to Joseph Daniels, secretary of the navy, who was in this city to address delegates to the Atlantic deeper waterways convention.

FATE PLAYS STRANGE PRANK WITH SAILOR After Crossing Ocean In an Open Boat He Loses His Life In River Lorain, O. — Ludwig Eisenbraun, a German sailor, who was drowned here recently in Black river, was treated very strangely by fate. Eisenbraun was the hero of one of the greatest feats in marine history, achieved when he crossed the Atlantic ocean in a nineteen foot dory. After encountering furious storms at sea, facing death of one of the greatest feats in marine history, achieved when he crossed the Atlantic ocean in a nineteen foot dory. On April 11, 1903, Eisenbraun sailed from Boston harbor in his dory, Columbus II. On Nov. 23 of the same year he docked his craft at Gibraltar. Once in a storm his boat was capsized, and he lost water and provisions. He righted the boat, and two days later was reprovisioned by a British steamer. He steered his craft against a sleeping whale, and the aroused monster nearly capsized him. Eisenbraun had been a sailor on the great lakes for five years. He was forty-eight years old. "PLEASE DON'T ROB ME!" HIS PLEA TO BURGLABS "PLEASE DON'T ROB ME!" HIS PLEA TO BURGLABS Jeweler Tries New Method to Keep Stock Intact—Has Appeal Published. Patterson, N. J.—If there is any sporting blood in the veins of the industrious burglar们 who have made professional visits to Leon Friedmann's jewelry store here at regular intervals it is hardly surprising that they can ignore their victims' failures. Double locks, bars, burglar alarms and watchmen having proved equally futile, Friedmann decided to make a personal entreaty to the entire profession of burglar们 a visit which cost him $2,000. He wrote this communication and caused it to appear in the newspaper papers here, on the theory that an upstairs burglar must read one of the two: NOTICE TO BURGALS Gentlemen-Members of your profession have called upon us with great profit to help us. We feel that we have done our share now. We feel that we have therefore we would deem it a great job you would take your trade elsewhere in future, at least until we can recover from the past, of all which, unfortunately, are our own. Respectfully yours, LEON FRIEDMANN PHONOGRAPH IN BASEMENT Machine Sends Music by Cold Air Duct and Heat Registers. Brazil, Ind.-H, E. Thompson when he wishes music at his home presses an electric button on the wall and from the cold air duct and the registers of the hot air furnace come in succession ten different selections, which are repeated until the electric switch is turned off. The music is produced by a phonograph arrangement in the basement. A circular table is arranged with ten records around it, all moved by an electric device, pointing upward in the air duct, a large plaster of paris horn, which is connected with the reproducing mechanism. After a record is played a cork roller carries the needle to the next record. VICTIM ON ENGINE'S FRONT. Thompson Was Held There by His Clothes and Was Not Hurt. Clothes and Was Not Hurt. Cedartown, Ga.—A peculiar accident happened at Greenway, six miles west of here. While crossing the railroad about 11 miles an hour. The Ryley Thompson's buggy was struck by passing freight train going tobury twenty miles an hour. The buggy torn completely up, the mule escaping.

Dull Ones unable to Keep Game Going, and as a Result Dynasty is Tottering, Declares Congressman's Wife. Bees Only Fortune Hunters Among Satellites. Chicago. — After Mrs. Elsie Clews Parsons of New York, wife of Herbert Parsons, New York representative, and daughter of Henry Clews, financier, hurried back home, Chicago society folk were wondering if she really meant she said in an address here recently before the City club. Mrs. Parsons said society—the Four Hundred—was fast heading to extinction. She advised sociological murder for "society," and, as a matter of fact, she said the homicidal process was already well on the way. She gave it a name which should lay it down with it if it is subject to mortal wound. She didn't once mention "parasites," but she called it the "gynocratic class" A —a woman bossed conclave, on whose bepowdered petticoids clung a few uninterested men fortune hunters and an even less ambitious male contingent, who cultivated society for the bare sake of the meals involved in being asked out to dinner. The crumbling of the dynasty she attributed to the following: The people with brains no longer have time for it; ergo, it is losing leaders. That, being a female organization in the beginning, it would no longer have cohesion when the little talent it possessed to amuse finds vent in woman suffrage, club life, business or sociological work. The younger girls are demanding the right to select their own mates; therefore they will not frequent "society" where the men are uninteresting. That an economic age is fast making it less fashionable. Mrs. Parsons displayed the humorous deformities of her subject so general at first that her audience, consisting numerously of "society" limbs, forgot to get angry and was soon laughing heartily—at itself. One or two dowagers got fussily and left with husbands who were red and seemed unhappy. "The society group of any American community," Mrs. Parsons said, "is composed of persons sufficiently desirous to be in the group to pay the entrance fee, so to speak. Comparatively, men belong to society without having some source of revenue. Now and then in the larger cities may be found men who get their living by being in society. "Conspicuous waste is a desideratum if not a requisite of a stable social position. For real estate men, brokers of various kinds, house decorators, architects, portrait painters and drawing room musicians it is good, sound business to be in society. "Many smart society women love altogether. They are like the saloon keeper who does not drink. But they will flirt, for flirtation means retaliate. Retainers mean prestige. "Prudent loves withdraw as far as possible from society. Ideally matchmakers delight in nothing so much as trading in the marriage market, and young and tractable hearts are their counters. Therefore they suffer the courtship." Horse Dislikes Cigarette. Los Angeles.—A sensitive horse who has a dislike for cigarette smoke attacked Edgar Akers, aged twenty-five, of this city, and bit him on the right hand. Akers was smoking a cigarette near the horse, which was standing at the horse's side, an angry squeal the horse seized Akers at the horse's hand. Akers managed to free his hand, but not until the horse's teeth had torn the flesh from the fingers. Old Man Hobbies to Polls St. Paul—An aged man limped into the voting booth of the Third precinct of the Sixth ward the other day.

Many colored people have been in doubt about Mr. Hughes' stand on the question of their rights as citizens: The Republican candidate for president settled the matter by his declaration in his address before the students of Fisk University and other colored citizens at Nashville, Tenn., when he said: "I say to you that I stand, if I stand for anything, for equal and exact justice to all. I stand for the maintenance of the rights of all citizens regardless of race or color. The one word that I love above all others is the word 'justice.' We want in this country what is right and fair. I am sure you do not wish particular things done because of color. You want what is right and fair. I desire to see such fair and decent and just treatment as will make you proud of your manhood and womanhood." MORRIS THE MAN The re-election of Edward H. Morris as national grand master of the Odd Fellows is a great triumph for the manhood of the colored people. For several years the jimcrow element in the order has endeavored to unhorse him, but the manly men have been on their guard and have prevented that which would have been a great catastrophy. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America, works under a charter from the Grand Lodge of England and for that reason, the colored members in the United States enjoy the fellowship of millions of men of every race, scattered all over the civilized globe. Edward H. Morris of Chicago, is the foremost colored lawyer of the world. His career reads like a romance. Coming from the depths of poverty, his tattered overcoat, barely covered the ragged suit he wore when he took the examination for the bar. Now he is one of the leaders of the Illinois Bar and there are few who are anxious to battle with him in the forum. Those who are competent to judge estimate that he has accumulated a fortune of more than a million dollars. A. B. HUGHES AT LINCOLN'S TOMB. Republican Candidate for President Makes Pilgrim the Great Emancipator. A non-political but interesting feature of the Illinois was the pilgrimage just at dusk of Mr. and of Lincoln. The visit was made without any oyster that not more than a dozen persons all told were. There was no placing of floral wreaths. The Republican candidate, more than half a ceil all around the imposing shaft, stood with bared the remains lie, and after a solemn moment in c statue of the great emancipator, returned to his h Republican Candidate for President Makes Pilgrimage to Resting Place of the Great Emancipator. A non-political but interesting feature of the big Republican day in Illinois was the pilgrimage just at dusk of Mr. and Mrs. Hughes to the tomb of Lincoln. The visit was made without any ostentation, so quietly, that not more than a dozen persons all told were there at the same time. There was no placing of floral wreaths. The Republican candidate, more than half a century after Lincoln, walked all around the imposing shaft, stood with bared head above the spot where the remains lie, and after a solemn moment in contemplation of the heroic statue of the great emancipator, returned to his hotel. Master of sarcasm, ridicule is one after March 1, 1785, to be free. In of his most powerful weapons when 1776, he published and dedicated to addressing a jury. Keen in analysis the Continental Congress "A Dialogue and versed in precedents, he seldom Concerning the Slavery of the Afri loses a case, for after examination cans, Showing It to Be the Duty and if he decides that it has no merit, he Interest of the American States to will not accept it no matter how allur- Emancipate All Their Slaves." ing the retainer offered. Morris is a clean cut, thinking man, who knows that he is an American and who not only demands but receives treatment as an American. When he was a member of the Illinois legislature he secured the passage of a strong civil rights bill, to safeguard the rights of all American citizens. As there are many jimcrow men among the 700,000 members of the Odd Fellows in this country, the advantage of having a man at its head who believes in manhood, should be apparent to the most casual observer. "THE FATHER OF ABOLITION." "THE FATHER OF ABOLITION." Dr. Samuel Hopkins, born at Waterbury, Conn., in September, 1721, was a noted theologian of his day and was also distinguished as an early opponent of the slave trade, although many of his parishioners were interested in it. His fierce opposition to slavery and the slave trade won for him the title of "The Father of Abolition." After graduating from Yale College in 1741, he began theological studies with Jonathan Edwards at Northampton, Mass., he was ordained pastor at Hoosatonic, Mass, and remained there until 1765, after which he preached in various towns in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, his congregations including destitute societies. The agitation he began led to the passage of a law in 1774, forbidding further importation of slaves into Rhode Island and to a subsequent act declaring the children of slaves born HARRIS & EWING WASHINGTON D.C. after March 1, 1785, to be free. In 1776, he published and dedicated to the Continental Congress "A Dialogue Concerning the Slavery of the Africans, Showing It to Be the Duty and Interest of the American States to Emancipate All Their Slaves." President Wilson, speaking before the citizenship convention, urged a "square deal" for the immigrant and demanded that America be kept the finest example of the objects and ideals that go to promote the standards of the world. "We ought to be careful to maintain a government at which the immigrant can look with the closest scrutiny and to which he should be at liberty to address this question: 'You declare this to be a land of liberty and of equality and of justice; have you made it so by your law?' "I believe America should exalt above everything else the sovereignty of thoughtfulness and sympathy and vision, as against the grosser impulses of mankind. No nation can live without vision, and no vision will exalt a nation except the vision of real liberty and real justice and purity of conduct." Natural born Americans were warned by the president to examine themselves carefully to_see whether they have burning in them the true light of America which they expect to show to these foreigners. If a "square deal" for the immigrant why not a square deal for 10,000,000 AMERICAN BORN citizens who are hounded and humiliated, discriminated against and often mob-murdered because more or less African blood flows in their veins? The president is the leader of the Democratic party which has displayed BEAUTIFUL, BUT BUNK. the greatest zeal in enacting discriminating legislation and the president himself has sanctioned the most infamous racial discriminations which were wholly outside the law. The president's rhetoric is perfect, but those who have suffered from the enactments of the Democratic party and the president's approval of unjust and unlawful and UNAMERICAN practices, naturally doubt his sincerity. His beautiful words are but bunk. ADVANCE OF CIVILIZATION. The Canadian expedition which has been for three years exploring and making scientific investigations along the north coast of the American continent has returned, bringing much important data from that frozen region. One of the most interesting bits of information is that which relates to the progress of civilization in Arctic lands. Dr. R. N. Anderson, who conducted the scientific researches, notes great changes in the actions of the natives since he first visited them in 1911. Here is a paragraph from his report: "Begging and petty pilfering seemed to be more common than I found them when I first went into the arctic regions. The natives are in general very hospitable and kindly disposed, but they are now anxious for white men to come in with trading materials. I do not think they have had, as yet, enough contact with white men to change their demeanor or nature very much, but it must be admitted that they seem less honest." We who live in this great and highly civilized land should not be little the progress that is being made. The poor creatures are doing the best they can under the circumstances and under the further tutelage of white men some bright Esquimaux lad, may in the days to come, become a black n o e l t d o e a d e l s e n t d o c o e f l e l t r y a r e l t b o f e e r e t t o e M.

Some day the poor benighted heathen of the frozen North may so far advance in civilization that they will organize a hellocracy which will rival Georgia or Texas in mob murders. Who knows? no denial by Major Moton of the charges as stated in the public press THE APPEAL agrees with the Clever land Gazette, that the Age evidently means well, but that Major Moton is fully able to speak for himself. THE APPEAL believes that if he is not guilty as charged, Major Moton ought to reply to the open letter of the Crisis and issue a signed state ANNIVERSARY OF ATLANTA'S SHAME. Ten years have passed since Atlanta, Georgia, was the scene of one of the most uncalled for and bloodiest riots ever recorded in history. Colored men and women were ruthlessly slaughtered because of race hatred; not a single one killed had been guilty of any crime whatever. The massacre was caused by the incendiary editorials of the Atlanta News and Journal, owned by Hoke Smith, since governor of Georgia and now United States senator from that state. In his gubernatorial canvass Smith also made incendiary speeches inciting the Caucasians against colored people and demanding that the race be disfranchised. Senator Hoke Smith is said to be the author of the jim-crow policy of the present administration and he has the active support of Vardaman, John Sharpe Williams and nearly every Southerner in Congress. THE APPEAL reprints in this issue "A Litany of Atlanta," by Dr. W. E. Burghardt Du Bois, editor of The Crisis. It was written just after the riot, the author being at that time a resident of Atlanta. September, 1916, being the tenth anniversary of the massacre and the recent renaissance of burnings and lynchings in Georgia render the publication timely. HUGHES' STRONG POINT. Mr. Hughes in his speech to a colored audience stated that he stood for equal and exact justice for all citizens regardless of color, and he said further: "I am sure you do not wish particular things done because of color." That was a strong point, so it seems queer that some of the jim-crow colored papers were careful to eliminate it. Cutting out a strong point like that shows the working of the jim-crow mind. The American thinking, intelligent, level-headed colored people certainly do not want any particular thing, no matter how alluring, because of color. If they are treated exactly as other Americans are treated they'll be satisfied. They are not asking different treatment or especial favors because of color. MUST BE A JOKE An exchange telegraph dispatch from Geneva says that it is understood the German government proposes to lodge a complaint with the International Red Cross against the use of the so-called "tanks." The complaint will be on the ground that the use of these new engines of war is contrary to recognized methods of civilized warfare. After the sinking of the Lusitania, the rape of Belgium, the despoiling of Serbia, the Zeppelin airship raids over England, killing innocent women and children, and other infamous acts of Germans in the present world war, it looks as if some grim joker is abroad in the land. The Richmond Planet has an article headed "Major Moton's Denial" and quotes from the New York Age, that paper's statement of the case. As a matter of fact there has been he a matter of fact there has been no denial by Major Moton of the charges as stated in the public press. THE APPEAL agrees with the Cleveland Gazette, that the Age evidently means well, but that Major Moton is fully able to speak for himself. THE APPEAL believes that if he is not guilty as charged, Major Moton ought to reply to the open letter of the Crisis and issue a signed statement repudiating the reports sent out by the Associated Press. The spirit of manhood in the principal of Tuskegee, is of more importance to the colored people than a billion dollars worth of beautiful buildings. AMERICANS-THAT'S ALL. For many yearn 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. Vice President Marshall in a recent speech put President Wilson in the Abraham Lincoln class. He hardly belongs there, for fifty years after Lincoln gave freedom to the slave and their descendants had advanced in NO DENIAL. HUGHES STANDS FOR EXACT JUSTICE. "I say to you that I stand, if I stand for anything, for equal and exact justice to all. I stand for the maintenance of the rights of all citizens regardless of race or color. The one word that I love above all others is the word 'justice.' We want in this country what is right and fair. I am sure you do not wish particular things done because of color. You want what is right and fair. I desire to see such fair and decent and just treatment as will make you proud of your manhood and womanhood." Points Emphasized by Hughes In His Speech at Springfield, Ill. The demand by the administration for such legislation [the Adamson bill] as the price of peace was a humiliating spectacle. The phrase "eight-hour day" is apparently used to tickle the public ear in order to establish something quite different. If the asserted judgment of society inspired it, why does the act apply to only a limited number of railroad men, relatively few? Had the executive gone at once to Congress for immediate authority to secure prompt and thorough investigation of the stated grievances in advance of action, and had he thus made instant provision for an inquiry so entirely competent as to command the respect of the country, I am satisfied there could have been no strike. Within a few hours, on demand of the administration Congress provided a mandatory increase of wages involving millions of dollars, without any idea whether the increase was or was not justified. And this action was taken in connection with the essential instrumentality of commerce, the arteries of our commercial life education, morality and good citizenship to equality with other citizens, Wilson has endeavored to turn back the hands of time and treat them as if they were lepers. "COLORED LEADERSHIP." (REV.) WM. A. BYRD. MONUMENTAL BUNK A few "grand old Southern gentlemen" are agitating the building of a monument in honor of the old black Mammies and Uncles of ante-bellum days. This agitation going on through the Southern press is full of disgusting sentimentality expressing the high regard of said gentlemen for said Mammies and Uncles. According to the truck we read slavery was a great and noble institution and both slave and condition were happy and contented with conditions that tried or wanted to escape so delitious bondage; the crack of the whip as it thrashed from some black today regardless of sex, the bark of the hound as he chased human prey, who in a foolish moment had yielded to the desire for liberty, the bidding at the auction block when mother and child were torn asunder are all fiction according to these kind-hearted old gentlemen. But because of the service — the happy service by the old Mammy and the old Uncle — they build a monument to their memory. And they to come Southern white boys are grazed and angered at the continued "freshness" of black boys and girls can look at that monument and remember "things were not always thus." Why not a monument to the thousands of known and unknown lynched? Why not a monument to the thousands of Colored Women raped and seduced in the backwood towns of Southern States? Why not a monument at Waco, Texas, where 15,000 women cheered the burning of a black man; these monuments are about as necessary, but he as decorative and beautifying one to the old black Mammy and the old black Uncle. Answer to Jimcrowists. (From the Union, Cincinnati, O.) The friends of Roy Miller are congratulating him, as he passes to high school, the only colored child from the Hazelwood School, with the highest average in the class. Hazelwood, O. Prof. Dabney: Kindly put the above item in your paper, as we are very proud of it, especially after the county superintendent and some of our "friends" tried to get "a Jim Crow School" out here last fall. Yours in the fight against Jim Crow and segregation. **Mrs.** 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 of the state have become impossible. They simply can not discuss the subject. While this is the case in this country, we have enough to do in cleansing our own blood 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. Billy Sunday speaks out emphatically, acrobatically and ungrammatically against almost every wrong in the country except race prejudice. If he wants us to be 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. He Is A Real Man (From the Pioneer-Press, Martinsburgh, W. Va.) 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, even of that sort are generally as a clam, but this is not so in the case of Mr. Dabney. He is a man. WEEK'S RECORD OF HAPPENINGS. IN MINNESOTA'S CAPITOL. The "Saintly City" and Saintly City Folks—Neway items of Social, Religious, Political and General Matters Among the People. PHONE: N.

"The Modern Minneaha" to be Com- posed of Members of the Race Livi- ing in the Twin Cities—Vote for Your Favorite. A short time ago Mr. Thaddeus Stepp, manager and director of THE STEPP MOVING PICTURE SPECIAL- TIES at Duluth was in St. Paul and put on a moving picture show at Pilgrim Baptist Church that was very successful in every way. He was so imbued with the idea that a photo play with members of the race, the leading characters would make a big hit in the Twin Cities, that the following letter is the result: Duluth, Minn., Aug. 10, 1916. Mr. J. Q. Adams St. Paul, Minn. While in St. Paul and Minneapolis, recently I was impressed strongly with the idea, that the Twin Cities, should afford a rousing photo drama, acted by members of the race of the two cities. Now it is absolutely necessary for us to act quickly in this 20th century time, and decide what we are going to do. I have made up my mind that St. Paul and Minneapolis, are the gate-ways to this great and historical Northwest, and there is enough of culture and refinement among the people to make such a photo play, a great success. I wanted to see you and have a general talk over the matter, but my time was so taken up while in your city, hence this letter. I hope you will favorably impressed with my proposition and lend your hearty cooperation in laying the matter before the readers of THE APPEAL. I am already arranging a scenario or having it written especially for the Twin Cities, entitled, "The Modern Minneha-ha." Now the question arises who is to be "Mimie" this must be decided by popular vote, the young lady receiving the highest number of votes will be the leading lady, in this play, these votes will be secured of you, and forwarded to me here, 623 Fifth Ave. East, Duluth, Minn., to be in my hands no doubt a Wednesday morning of the week, that I will return candidate's name, and the number of votes each receives so that I can report result to you for publication same week. This film will be exhibited in the Twin Cities so that every one will have a chance to see themselves as others see them, and will also be placed on the exchange circuit to be exhibited East, South and West. Of course there is to be a number of people in the cast, should there be a tie vote. I reserve the right to cast the deciding vote, the others will be used in the cast also, according to the number of votes each receives. Yours truly, T. W. STEPP. Acting upon the suggestion of Mr. Stepp THE APPEAL has decided to give the people a chance to get into the movies, as follows: Carefully cut out the coupon that you will find in each copy of THE APPEAL.

COMMITTEE SAINT PAUL A few of the neighbors and friends of Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Allen gathered at their residence on Aurora avenue last Monday evening and helped them to celebrate the 26th anniversary of their wedding in a very pleasant manner. A nice lunch was served and many old reminiscences were related. "UTLEY'S PLACE," 311 Wabasha between Third and Fourth streets, has been reopened after undergoing a thorough overhauling, renovating, redecorating, etc. Old and new patrons are invited. Barber Shop, Pool Hall, Lunch Counter, Shoe Shining, Newspapers and Magazines. Some folks seem to think that if they leave envelopes unsealed they may enclose written matter and one sent postage will be sufficient. But no one would write matter sent through the malls, must be paid for at the rate of two cents per ounce or less, whether the envelope is sealed or not. The three contestants for the $50 diamond ring at the 20th Century Entertainment are working like beavers and are selling many tickets. The second prize is a bracelet and the third or consolation prize is a good one. Help your favorite all you can. Entertainment Wednesday, Oct. 4, at Union Hall, tickets 35 cents. L. L. Alexander, manager of the Bee Hive Grocery, 441 Rondo, corner of Arundel, says he don't want people's sympathy, but their patronage, because he is a business man that means business. Call or phone your order and he will supply you with anything in staple or fancy groceries. Orders called for and delivered. Tel. Summit 422. Mrs. Charles Miller, 428 Edmund street, entertained sixteen little girls on Saturday afternoon in honor of her life. France Bass, who was nine years old at France Day. The children were amused with games, music and served with a dainty lunch, the birthday cake with its lighted candles being a feature of much delight to them.

Everything new and up-to-date. Mr. and Mrs. T. W. Stepp, formerly of Duluth, have moved St. Paul and are domiciled with Mr. Stepp sister-in-law, Mrs. Fannie Bennett, $92 W. Central avenue. He will at once go to work making arrangements to take the pictures for the coming movie, "The Modern Minneaha," which is creating quite a furor in the Twin Cities. The RESLER ELECTRIC CO., formerly located in the Court Block, has moved to 370 Minnesota street on the ground floor where old and new customers will be welcomed and cared for. This company did the electric wiring in THE APPEAL office and at the editor's home. They are agents for the Alco Electric Washer. Call to see them if you wish anything electrical. The "Busy Corner," on the corner of Rondo and Western, has been given a coating of stucco and now has a very attractive appearance. The business has also changed hands, Mr. W. J. Utley retiring and Mr. W. R. McDowell becoming proprietor. They are prepared better than ever to ac commodate the public and invite all to call. See announcement elsewhere in this issue. Mme. L. A. Porter-Henderson has finished her class in hair dressing, facial massage, manicuring, scalp treatment, shampooing and hair manufacturing and has issued diplomas to her graduates. She will reopen her class Oct. 15, 1916. Her prices are reasonable, diplomas issued when class is finished. For further information call Dale 2755 or write to 382 N. St. Albans street. Considerable interest was taken in the pool contest for a prize of $20 in gold that took place at Lyles & Williams' pool parlor, corner St. Anthony and Kent streets, last Tuesday and Wednesday evenings between Kid Goodin of Minneapolis and William Porter of New York. The house was crowded each night and there was some brilliant playing. Goodin won by a score of 300 to 275. The interest in the contest to decide who will be the leading lady in the photo-play, "The Modern Minnehaa." is growing warmer, and it bids fair to get very warm if the sales of papers and coupons continues to increase as they have this week. Look out for surprises, as the friends of some of the contestants are securing votes and holding them back for the final rush at the close. Some months ago a suit for $2,500 damages for assault was filed against the Rice-Philips Laundry Co., the manager of which, C. W. Bascom, was accused of striking Miss Marguerite Ruse, age 18, an employee. The jury that tried the case rendered a verdict for $912 damages. A new trial was granted to the laundry company. The case was settled by stipulation for $200 in the district court Thursday. The Social and Literary club and the Ladies' Aid Society of Pilgrim Baptist church will present Mr. H. T. Burleigh, concert baritone, and one of America's most eminent composers in recital at Pilgrim Baptist church on Thursday evening, October 19th, at 8 o'clock p. m. This is the only opportunity that the general public of the Twin Cities will have to hear Mr. Burleigh in recital. A list of the patronesses for the recital will be published in our next issue. The BEE HIVE, corner of Rondo and Arundel streets, which has been closed for a few days, has been reopened with a new stock and is better than ever. Mr. L. L. Alexander, the manager, says all he wants is for the people to call and he will convince them that the Bee Hive can't be surpassed for quality, low prices and service in staple and fancy groceries, vegetables, fruits, confectionery, etc. There is also a lunch room in connection. Call and be convinced. Listen to this great opportunity just for you. Why not take advantage of this, it is meant for you. The woman that has a trade can make her way through life independently all the time. I will reopen my class Oct. 15, 1916, in hair dressing, facial massage, manicuring, scalp treatment, shampooing and the manufacture of hair work and issue diplomas to graduates. Terms reasonable.

Open from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. First class a la carte service all hours. Regular dinner from 11:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Tel. Cedar 8700. Public cordially invited. Mrs. Elizabeth Freeman, of New York, member of the Hughes Woman's Special, and who speaks at the Metropolitan theater at noon today, will tell the story of the Waco lynchings and burning at Pilgrim Baptist church tomorrow, Sunday morning, October 8. Miss Freeman made the investigation at Waco, Texas, in the interest of the National Association for the advancement of Colored people. Her report on that horror was published and issued with the Crisis. Her story of this most damnable outrage should be heard by everyone. It was through letters of Miss Freeman that the $10,000 lynchings fund was raised and that steps are being taken to prosecute the leaders of the Waco mob. Miss Freeman will speak at 10:45 A.M. Rev. James M. Henderson, the new minister at St. James A. M. E. church, preached his first sermon last Sunday morning and made a very favorable impression upon the large audience that was present. He announced some changes in the order of things that will meet the hearty approval of a majority of his congregation. Tomorrow morning at 10:30 his subject will be "Our Burdens"; in the evening at beginning the Prodigal Son." He promises to begin on time and prompt on time and to close on time so the public will govern itself accordingly, and get there on time. For the present he is the guest of Mesdames Black and Crawford, but expects his mother, Mrs. M. A. York, to arrive next week and to then take up his residence at the parsonage. The Twentieth Century Entertainment, given under the auspices of Households of Ruth, Nos. 553 and 4671, G. U. O. of O. F., at Union Hall last Wednesday was a glorious success. There was an immense crowd present and all had a good time. The chief interest centered in the prize ticket selling contest, which resulted as follows: The first prize, a $50 diamond ring, was won by Mrs. H. Hart, the milliner of Minneapolis, who brought in $101.70; the second prize, a gold watch bracelet, was awarded to Miss Bertha Lewis, who brought in $52.85; third prize, a gold necklace, was given to Miss Ridley, who brought in $20. The managers Messrs. J. B. and J. E. Johnson, proved falsity of the assertion that there can be "too much Johnson" as they delivered the goods. Of course, they were ably assisted by the members of the splendid committee they had, each one of which did her whole part. One of the prettiest weddings of the season was solemnized on last Saturday morning at St. Peter Claver Catholic church, when the marriage of Miss Ida Loomis to Mr. Donald Brady of Minneapolis was performed by Rev. Father Theobald. The church was beautifully decorated with palms, smilax and white roses. The bride wore a gown of ivory satin combined with tulle, taffeta and pearl trimming. The bridal bouquet was a shower of roses and lilies of the valley. Miss Helen Brady, sister of the groom, was maid of honor and was effectively gowned in pink crepe de chine. Mr. Brady's brother was best man. Following the ceremony there was a wedding breakfast at the home of the bride's parents for the two families and a few friends. A large reception was held in the evening from six to nine, after which the newly-weds left for the East on a short journey. They will be at home in Minneapolis after the 15th, where Mr. Brady employed as clerk in the postoffice.

One of the most remarkable exhibitions of what can be done if one goes at the right way has been noted in the success of Messrs. Wm. A. Lyles and Ward Williams in their barber shop and pool parlor, 554 St. Anthony avenue. Just a few months ago they started with two barber chairs and two pool tables. By their strict business methods a... reful management the business has so increased that they were compelled to build an addition large enough to accommodate three more pool tables, and still they can hardly take care of large crowds that have become regular guests; they represent the best class of citizens in the city. They now have five of the latest style of the famous Brunswick & Balke pocket billiard tables, in addition to their up-to-date torsional parlor. The public is cordially invited to call and enjoy what they have provided. "THE CHERRY BLOSSOMS." The Attraction at the Star. Theatre Next Week. The prettiest bouquet of beauties and the dressiest show en route for which the Cherry Blossom are famous. This attraction will be on the Star, commencing on Sunday, Oct. 8. Excruciatingly funny is the two-act comedy entitled "Yiddish Love," in which there is not a dull moment. Seldom, if ever, has such an able aggregation of talented burlesquers been assembled in one company. Heading the list is Joseph K. Watson, who is recognized as America's foremost impersonator of The Hebrew character as he is today. As his associates the management has been fortunate in seizing such well-known players as Billy Murray, "the little boy with the funny laugh," "the little boy with the funny laugh," William Davis, Walter Austin, Lovaine and Lillie, Frankie Niblo, Nellie Walker and a chorus of real beauties that can sing. As an added attraction the management has secured DOTTIE, the Girl in Pink, sensational whirlwind dancer, and every matinee complete returns of the world's series championship baseball will be given in detail.

And the case of Mr. Donald Brady was not an exception to the rule for led by that prince of good fellows, Mr. Samuel L. Ransom, a company of twenty-five gentlemen gathered to celebrate Mr. Brady's departure from the ranks of the bachelors. The "stag" was held in the private dining rooms upstairs of the popular Young's Cafe, 136 East Third street, on Friday night of last week and was a very recherche affair. There were six tables spread with snowy linen and decorated with flowers, evergreens, cut glass and silver. The menu consisted of: .Spring Chicken a la Maryland Green River The early part of the evening was passed in card playing until the arrival of the guest of honor. Dr. John R. French then arose and made a few introductory remarks and introduced as toastmaster Mr. J. Homer Goins, who filled the position credit to himself and the satisfaction. Toasts were responded to by Dr. Val Do Turner, F. D. McCracken, Walter McCoy, Harry Harper and a happy response was made by the guest of honor, after which the singing of "He's a Jolly Good Fellow" the merry party disspurred.
