Every Square Foot of Water Near Port of New York Made Unsafe Even For Rowboat—Rear Admiral Knight Set About Safeguarding Narragansett Bay Naval District. Washington.—When the break with Germany came two of the most elaborate and intricate mine fields that a nation ever devised for the safeguarding of a city's water gates were planned by the coast artillery and the corps of engineers to protect the enemies to the water immediately about New York. It was a task which was completed in all save the last detail, the actual laying of the mines, and these were stored by hundreds at Fort Totten and Sandy Hook, ready for the message from the war department which would send the mine layers out with their gingerly handled burdens. The aggressiveness and determination with which sand can be delivered are a lesson of the European which has not been lost upon the military and naval officials of this country. REAR ADMIRAL KNIGHT. It has certainly proved of vast value to the coast artillery, which as a second and third line of defense will be intrusted with the defense of New York. The first line is the navy, the fourth is the mobile army. Newport, R. I., the seat of a torpedo factory, a mine base, fuel station, munition magazines, the naval war college and other departments of high naval importance, was formally transferred from the control of Collector of Customs Pitzsimmons to Rear Admiral Robert F. H. Hamm, who immediately set about protecting the harbor and the entire Narrauganset bay naval district against any emergency. Mines were collected at Forts Greble and Adams ready for distribution in the waters of the harbor approaches. Every strategic center was placed under double guard, the public was refused admission and troops refused leave of absence except in special situations. The harbor was known as the "mobilization slate," indicating the posts which they will be called upon to fill in the event of an actual mobilization order. The naval torpedo factory was especially busy. Extra time by workers and operation in shifts have been ordered, while efforts were made to recruit 400 additional machinists. Three torpedo boat destroyers, with a full crew of 100, were preparing the factory and ready at the same time to perform such other duties as the commandant may order. "IT'S REAL SPORT." This Fighting of Duelis In Air, Aviator on Furlough Says. Cleveland, O., "It's real sport," said Robert Rockwell, a member of the French aviation service, who is home on theough. "The Americans in the service," said Rockwell, "look upon it as sport. They forget it is war. When we come back and, laughing, tell how some enemy birdman escaped, our officers remind us we are at war." Rockwell went to France two years ago as a member of the hospital service on theough in March. He will rejoin the service on theomme front. His cousin, Kiffin Rockwell, was killed in an air duel. U. S. LAYS SUBMARINE NET. It Blocks Entrance to Hampton Roads and Is Two Miles Long. Norfolk, Va.—As a protection against hostile submarines a powerful steel net has been placed in Hampton Roads between Fort Wool and the government pier at Fort Monroe. The net blocks entrance to the entire channel of the roads and affords absolute protection Fort Monroe and Old Point Comfort. The net was laid with so much secrecy that its presence was not known until masters of vessels were forbidden to pass over it without authority from the commanding officer of the navy patrol boats now on duty in the roads. The net was long. Its efficiency was proved by the capture of the steamship Madison. Favora Small, High Climbing Plane with but a Single Gun. Dayton, O.-Orville Wright, inventor of the aeroplane, announced that in case of war with Germany he would abandon his private affairs and offer his services to the government to help organize an aerial army. While I could not duplicate Henry Ford's manufacture, machines because of the disposed of interests in the manufacturing end of the business," Wright asserted, "I certainly will do everything I can for the country. "We have a pitifully small number of military and licensed civilian pilots to meet an emergency, but that need not trouble us a great deal if we meet the situation promptly. "I have but out two weeks to develop and train a good military observer. It takes two weeks more to make him a competent fighting man. "As for the type of aerial defense, I would favor the small, high climbing plane, light and unarmed except for a single gun. It can jump in and do a lot of damage and get away while heavier planes are getting started. The manufacture of Zeppelins against the manufacture of Zeppelins applies except for observation purposes. As an offensive weapon in war the Zeppelin has been a fat failure." Several Linguists Say They Could Make Themselves Agreeable to Foreign Diplomats. Washington.-Uncle Sam will never run short of spies. He has been fairly spawned with applications for appointments in the secret service since the diplomatic break with Germany. Judging by the number of applications coming in, every family must have at least one husky young movie fan who years for the exciting life of a daring, dashing, omnipresent, well dressed, swagger and handsome secret service agent, spending the winter in Florida watching foreign diplomats and spies, with nothing much to do except keep his fannel trousers well creased all the time so that he may be ready on a moment's notice to rush out from ambulance, hop in an automobile to follow some fair foreign enchantment to a secret rendezvous, there to meet the storm, be breaking choice between enchantment and cold, gloomy duty, nulty rising to the occasion, grabbing her traveling bag and returning with the plans and specifications of an explosive doughnut to the waiting chief of the secret service in Washington. Of course all course warf applicants for jobs in the secret service have special qualifications. Several of them know foreign languages. Many of them are dancer and could diplomats and their families, particularly the diplomatic daughters, who are bound to "leak" a lot of state secrets to a first class fox trot maybe. RIDS TOWN OF TRAMPS. "Knights of Road" Confronted With Sign of Skull and Bones. Nesquebouing, Pa.-While almost every other community throughout the state and probably throughout the gattie country is being bothered with the tramp nuisance, these "knights of the road" are giving Nesquebouing a wide berth. One day a "Weary Willie" had the audacity to come into the town and attempt to eke out an existence without working. It was decided to rid the town of him and thereby discourage others from leading a free and easy life. Various ways were discussed, and it was finally decided to place him in a barrel and吊 him down a hill. Before being put into the barrel he said: To Nesquebouing I bid aloud. A man weaved a mask to see you. He reached the bottom of the hill more dead than alive and after extircating himself made a dash for the wilds of Broad mountain. That was the last ever seen of him. His treatment reached the ears of many other tramps, who to this day fear even to pass through the town. "SHORT SKIRTS MAKE'EM EAT" Lecturer Would Cut Living Cost by Changing Fashions. Philadelphia.—Short skirts and silk stockings made a girl eat so much she becomes bad tempered. An inch from the skirt means a pound of beefsteak inside. Highly colored dresses are very dangerous and make a girl irritable. A calico dress is better than imitation silk. A woman's first duty is to make herself as beautiful as she can. These are a few excerpts from the law of clothes laid down by Miss Jane Newcomb, a State college extension lecturer, in a tail to a group of women at the Friends' Central school. Miss Newcomb first gave warning that the less a girl wears the more she must eat to keep warm. In the day of Newcomb hair in high living costs Miss Newcomb hair in the investigation into the folly of fashion comes to the conclusion that to lengthen the stir is to shorten the grocer's bill. THE APPEAL MOUNTAIN TRAIL BELLS TO HELP OUT TRAVELERS Located Thousands of Feet Above Sea Level In Rockies. Denver. — Travelers accustomed to the sound of fog bells on the Atlantic or. Pacific coast will be amazed, perch, to hear the warning ring next summer from 10,000 to 14,000 feet above the sea level in the Rocky mountain. The tragic end of the Rev. Thornton R. Simpson of Texas, who disappeared in the Rocky Mountain National park while on a walking tour, has resulted in plans to safeguard the precipitous and dangerous trails of the park. L. C. Way, supervisor of the Colorado playground, has devised the plan of having fog bells scattered along the intervals from a quarter to a half at intervals of a mile. Jougs peak, Halets glacier and Halets bells. The bells will be of deep tone and will be operated by a system similar to weather vanes. The bells will be placed on posts about seven feet high. Suspended over the bell will be a small, light wooden paddle. The slightest breeze will tilt the bells and ring the bell. The probably would be slow in the year when the breeze would be insufficient to ring the bell. While the mountains are not too dangerous for travel, even the most experienced traveler sometimes will lose the trails in the mountains. About 11,000 feet above sea level and above 10,000 feet above the heavy clouds sometimes totally obscure the sight of the traveler. Walking in the face of the wind with his head lowered, he is apt to lose his bearings. LARGEST WIRELESS PLANT AT SAN DIEGO New $300,000 Station Is Made Ready For Work After Satisfactory Tests. San Diego, Cal.-The new $300,000 wireless telegraph station was recently completed and officially put in commission after suitable tests. It is the largest and most powerful radio station in the western hemisphere and is capable of carrying for 12,000 miles Messages from the British fleet cruising in the North sea, from the high powered German plant at Berlin and from American ships and from Australia. Three units in the globe encircling radio service of the United States navy are now completed. These are the stations at San Diego, Arlington and Darien (Panama canal zone). A fourth is under construction at Manila. The three 600 foot aerial towers form a triangle. They contain 1,000,000 pounds of fabricated steel and are the largest radio towers in the world. They are 150 feet in width at the base and eight feet at the apex. They are placed 1,100 feet apart. Huge porcelain insulators embedded in concrete the base of each leg of the towers. The receiving room is absolutely sound proof, the walls and floors being padded with asbestos. There are four distinct and complete controlling sets installed in the receiving room, enabling any one of the four operators or all four simultaneously to send and receive messages. The aerials or antennae weigh sixteen tons and have a sag between 100 feet. They are twice as large as those strung from the Eifel tower in Paris. The helix is fourteen feet in height and eleven feet in height, or nine feet higher than the helix used in ordinary naval and commercial stations. WOMAN IS A MAIL CARRIER. She Braves Winter and Bad Roads in Maryland. Baltimore - Brewing snow, sleet, drifts, biting winds in the winter and blistering and scorching heat in the summer. Miss Julia M. Shafer of Knoxville, Md., for twelve years has served the United States as rural mail carrier. She is now covering the same route her father traveled fourteen years ago, when the route first was established. Miss Shafer in those days was a substitute for her father; now the father is substituting for her. In the twelve years that Miss Shafer has carried mail it is estimated that she has traveled 83,600 miles. She makes twenty-five miles six days of the week. With the exception of the regular fifteen day annual vacation, Miss Shafer has been off duty only thirty days in twelve years. LINER SAVES TWO AT SEA. Barge Crew Drifting in Ice Covered Craft—Get $40 Purse. New York—The Ward liner Saratoga, from Havana, brought in two seamen, Jose Faria and Manual Baptista, crew of the coal bargain Edward F. Clark, which, with her sister barge, the Theodora Palma, broke away from the Havana seamen's blast. The Saratoga fell in with the Clark, covered with ice and the seas breaking over her, about 240 miles south of Sandy Hook. The two men launched a dory and rowed to the Saratoga and boarded her by a sea ladder. Captain Miller of the Saratoga also noted another barge flying distress signals with a tank standing by and preparing to take off the Passengers of the Saratoga made up a purse of $40 for the two seamen. FUNSTON'S ESCAPE Narrowly Missed Being Shot by General Fitzhugh Lee. LEE DIDN'T RECOGNIZE HIM. Captor of Aguinaldo Had Long Hair, Unkempt Beard and Gaunt Appearance and Approached Lee Cautiously. Got Aboard Steamer Next Day Without Arousing Suspicion. Washington.—There are many stories told here of Major General Fred Funston, whose death occurred recently. One of the stories has to do with General Fitzhugh Lee, now dead, who often told how near he came to shooting the intrepid captor of Aguinaldo, the Filipino chief. Up before the Maine was blown up, he received many threats that he would be killed and was in dally fear of his life. Soon, in warning of a plot to eliminate the American consul general at Havana one of the worst scares in his life. He was alone in his office when the door opened and one of the worst looking faces he had ever seen looked in at him. The man had long hair, unkempt beard and a gaudt appearance. His hat was full of holes, his shoes about all gone, and he had no clothing apparently but a linen duster. He approached General Lee cautiously, and the latter instinctively grasped his revolver. "If that fellow had once put his hand under his duster I am positive I have shot him without waiting for a knife." He said, "I was satisfied he had been asked to come and kill me. When he approached to a speaking distance he astonished me by asking in good English if I was General Lee. I told him I was and asked him who he was. He said he belonged to the Cuban army, was General Gomez's chief of artillery and wanted to go back to the United States. "He said he was from Kansas and had enough of the Cubans. I told him he was taking his life in his hands by coming into the Spanish lines and if he was caught they would make quick work of him as a spy. He said he did not. I was satisfied he called the truth and sent him out for a tour. When he came back in a new suit of clothes you wouldn't have recognized him the same man. I got him aboard a steamer the next day without arousing any suspicion. He landed safely in the United States. That man was General Funston, who captured Aguinaldo." INTERSTATE BRIDGE OPENED $1,750,000 Structure Between Washington and Oregon In Use. Vancouver, Wash.—In a din of steamboat whistles, clanging bells and cheers from thousands of spectators the new $1,750,000 interstate bridge between Oregon and Washington was opened. The structure is one of the longest in the world, four miles, including approaches. It spans the Columbia river between Vancouver and Multnomah counties a few miles from Portland. When the great central draw was lowered into place a street car crowded with officials and noted visitors crossed slowly. That was the signal for an outburst of noise such as the old Columbia river never heard before. A procession of flag bedded automobiles the car, and another long line of men crowded at the same time from the Washington side. They passed in the middle. SHE BRAVES U BOATS. Undaunted by Submarine Menace, Miss Floctyla Sailta to Mèt Laveu. Floorty Sails to Meet Lover. Philadelphia — Believing that woman's place is in the bore, after all, Miss Noah Kroon has given her job in an English summits factory to marry a Clifton Heights shemaker. Hereafter Miss Floretty's pretty hands will make bread instead of bullets. She became the bride of Samuel Kooyoomjian, an Armenian shemaker, employed in a shop at Clifton Heights, thus ending—or perhaps beginning—a romance that had its origin five years ago when Kooyoomjian deserted the Turkish army, and made his way to Denmark. Undamaged by the kaiser's submarine warfare, Miss Floretty, twenty three years old, pretty and blond, left Liverpool, landing in New York on the steamer Kroonland. Bible Saves Man's Life Philadelphia.-An Old Bible tucked in his vest pocket saved the life of George Tustin, forty-four, when, according to the police, his companion and roommate, Frank Hatfield, stabbed him just before he was penetrated his breast after passing the Bible, inflicting a serious wound. Hatfield has been arrested. THIS MAN LEARNS TO READ WITH TONGUE Chicago—The loss of his sight and both arms in a mine explosion in 1906 failed to cause de- spair to William McPherson of Highland Park, Ill. He has since learned to read with his tongue by means of raised letters on porcelain slabs. Now he has been fitted with artificial arms and can mimic for the first time in eleven years. Defective Page OFFERS A CONVICT REGIMENT. Commissioner Lewis Would Recruit 1,200 From City Prisons. New York.-New York gangsters may yet rival the exploits of the apaches of Paris on the firing line, and the American gun man and the French blue devil may yet be fighting side by side. Burdette G. Lewis, commissioner of correction, announced that he had in connection with Major General Leonhard Wood, a commissioner of recruiting a regiment of workhouse and penitentiary inmates in the event of war between the United States and Germany. Commissioner Lewis also consulted with Major General O'Ryan, commanding the national guard. Commissioner Lewis spoke of the exploits of the apaches of Paris, the outlaws of the boulevards, who are com-mitigating the gun men and gangsters of New York. The German army was almost at the gates of Paris, a force of apaches so distinguished itself for desperate fighting that it won the sobriquet of the blue devils. The commissioner of correction believes that the same reckless individuality and excess of physical exuberance which enter into the personality of gang leaders and gang men the New York workhouse and penitentiary population a valuable fighting force if obfeced by strict disciplinarians. POSTOFFICE AIDS AIR RACE. Designates Transcontinental Course as an Official Mail Route. Washington. — Delivery of United States mail by aeroplane will be a feature of the cross continental race planned for next June, as the route of the contest will be designated as an aerial mail route by the postoffice department. In accepting the Aero club's offer of co-operation the second assistant postmaster general, Otto Proteger, says in a letter read at the aeronautics exposition in the Grand Central palace, New York, by Alan R. Hawley, president of the "The field superintendents of the railway mail service have presented to the department thirty-seven practicable aeroplane mail routes. The postoffice department will appreciate it if you will designate a committee to co-operate with this bureau in making an investigation as to the designation of such cities in various states as aerial mail stations, where satisfactory landing places can be provided." SLATES MAY COME BACK. High Price of Paper Forces Them Into Use In New Jersey. Pennsburg, N. J.-Slates may come into vogue again in south Jersey schools, in spite of objections to them on sanitary grounds, as a result of the shortage and increased cost of paper. County Superintendent of Schools Dixon has already issued an order to county schools to use both sides of the paper in preparing written lessons. A number of organizations and church societies throughout this end of the state are collecting and selling old paper as an effective method of raising funds for their various schemes. The most systematic paper saving campaign in this part of the state is being conducted at the new Du Pont villages, where a salvage department has been established. Old papers regularly collected in wagons, and presses have been set up for bailing it into 100 pound bundles for shipment. BEAR IN RUSSIAN ARMY. Huge Animal Fights With a Regiment on French Front. Petrograd.—Fighting with the Russian army in France is a huge bear from the Caucasian mountains, who seems to enjoy his sojourn on the French front fully as much as his masters enjoy theirs. Because of one of the Russian regiments that were transported halfway round the world from the Russian to the French front to show the solidarity of the allies. When the time comes for the bear's regiment to go to the front line trenches for its six days of duty the bear goes along. He keeps the all night vigils with the sentinels, and as there is nothing else to eat but the regular bear up from the rear he permits the soldiers to divide their share with him. COUGARS EATING DOGS. Live Canines as Bait Very Popular Among Mountain Beasts. Los Angeles—John B. Miller, president of the Southern California Edison company, has encountered a problem which he did not consider when he built his country home in Liveoak canyon, north of Pomona, last summer. He now how to get rid of the mountain ilons. It not only is worrying Mr. Miller, but threatens to spread to the county authorities for determination of the question whether or not live dogs may be used for bait. The Miller home were that the tracks of the ilon were as large as a man's band and that the distance it covered when it leaped on the animal killed was fifteen feet. Hannibal Gets Mark Twain's Chair. Hannibal, Mo.-A willow chair, which was Mark Twain's favorite seat, has been presented to the boyhood home of the humourist in Hannibal by Albert Bigdow Tree. Accompanying him was Mark Twain's seated in the chair in 1900, upon which the humourist wrote: "This is my best. Mark Twain." In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. WILDCAT JUMPED AT AUTO. Wisconsin Judge Brings Home Proof of Encounter on Tour. Milwaukee, Wis.-Municipal Judge A. C. Backus, his wife and four children narrowly escaped with their lives when a wildcat jumped at the automobile in which they were touring through the state near Athens, Wis. The animal struck the front left tire so hard that its skull was fractured, and it fell on the road. "I was driving on the road when I noticed a dark object on the left side of the road," said Judge Backus. "At first I thought it was a large dog. When I saw that it was a cat and too large for a tame cat I put on speed. The cat jumped straight for the car, and I turned the wheel so that the cat struck it. Its skull must have been fractured. At the time I had no means of defense. It was a lucky thing that the cat was in front of the car instead of at the side or it could have jumped in. Judge Backus took the dead animal from Athens to Marshfield, where he is having it mounted. It weighed between forty and fifty pounds and is of a grayish brown color. BIBLES TO SOLDIERS. Sunday School Children Give $25,000 Foward Distribution at Front. Toward Distribution at Front. Princeton, N. J.-The Rev. Dr. John Fox of New York, secretary of the American Bible society, told a group of friends of the society who assembled Sunday school children, had confirmed more than $25,000 to provide Europeaniders with Bibles and that more than 500,000 copies of Testaments had been sent to the front. The Rev. A. C. Tucker, a missionary who has spent years in Brazil, told of the distribution of Bibles in that country. President Hibben of the university, at whose invitation the meeting was held, presided. The group assembled first at President Hibben's home but so many accepted the invitations that it was found necessary to adjourn to McCosh hall. PUNY ITALIAN SINGS WAY. Ability to Make Living Doubled Until He Renders Aria. Boston.—Dominick Pacifico, thirty years old, sang his way into this country. When he arrived recently from Boston he was held because of his pinyu physique and migration officials doubting his ability to make his way in the United States. "But I can, if you give me a chance," said Pacifico. "I am an opera singer." "Sing, then," challenged an inspector. Before the board of special inquiry the Italian struck up an aria from "La Tosca. When the song ended the orchestra was mostly voted that with such a voice it would become a public charge. The Italian said he would go to Philadelphia to join a brother, a priest SHIP'S CREW PANS GQLD. Skipper Gave Them a Day For Search After Steamer Was Loaded. After Steamer was Loaded. San Francisco. Every member of the crew the steamer San Pedro, which arrived in Manhattan, thirty-d miles from Manhattan, Mexico, had a bag of gold washed from the sands of a creek that tumbled in the bay near where the steamer was loading cedar logs. One of the crew discovered the gold. All hands quit loading logs and with dippers, pans and skillets started gold miling.

If he refuses to obey just report to me." Judge Fox sententiously remarked to Mrs. Alnsworth. Alnsworth meekly followed when his wife said "let's go home." HUNT SHARKS FOR LEATHER Shoe Firm's Offer Makes Louisiana Fisherman Get Busy. New Orleans...Fishermen here have gone to hunting man eating sharks. It is to become a highly profitable as well as thrilling sport, it is said. According to the bureau of fisheries at Washington, the skin makes superior shoe leather, the best hide that of the blue shark. Several weeks ago H. Serkowich of Cincinnati offered to buy a large quantity of skins. This caused hundreds of boats to be fitted out for pursuit of the terror of the gulf and Caribbean sea, which are plentiful at this time of the year. First Party at Seventy-five. Massillon, O.-Frank Hossler of East Tremont street is breaking into society at the age of seventy-five years. He received reception recently by a number of friends and relatives. It was the first party he had ever attended. $2.40 PER YEAR. OUR GIRL SCOUTS OUR GIRL SCOUTS RECRUIT TO FULL STRENGTH. Mrs. Low Works Energetically to Get Organizations to Take Up Training Instituted For Women by Navy League—English Girls Render Assistance In War. New York.—Hundreds of girls and young women have joined the National Girl Scouts since the outbreak with Germany, and Mrs. Juliette Low, the national president, announced from the headquarters, 527 Fifth avenue, this city, that to meet any emergency the organization will be recruited up to the strength of the Boy Scouts of America. Mrs. Low telegraphed to Elliott Wadsworth, vice chairman of the American Red Cross at Washington, offering the services of the girl scouts. They are to co-operate with the nearest Red Cross brigade. It is Mrs. Low's ambition to make the girl scouts, already 100,000 strong, the greatest girl's organization in the GIRL SCOUTS IN WOODS. world. Mrs. Low is prominent socially in England and Scotland as well as in this country. The Girl Scouts of America is the same as the Girl Guides of England and the continent and is adapted to fill the same need in girl life that the boy scout movement fills for ladis. Mrs. Low became interested in this work for girls through her observation of the boy scout movement in England by Sir Robert Baden-Powell and the simultaneously similar movement to Miss Agnes Baden-Powell, Sir Robert and his sister visited Mrs. Low upon her estates in Scotland and assisted her in starting the work among the Scottish lassies. They have recently come into the advisory board of the American organization. Mrs. Low is now working energetically to get the organizations in the various cities to take up the training instituted for women by the Navy league. She has arranged for classes of girl scouts to take these courses and has offered prizes in that connection. Mrs. Low saw the necessity for this work after she received the assistance rendered their country by the girls England during the progress of the European war. She says there are innumerable things that girls can do in wartime to help their country if they are properly trained. Mrs. Low will hold meetings in the cities she visits under the auspices of the women's clubs. All women who are interested in the movement looking to the uplift of American girlhood are invited to attend these meetings. Girls from educational institutions are interested, as are also college sororities and colleges of college women. Mrs. Low, a brilliant speaker, is in demand both in the west and the east to explain the work. Mrs. Low has great hopes that her visit to America at this time will be the means of arousing considerable interest in the movement among the women of the land. It is the purpose of Mrs. Low to explain the great good to be accomplished among the girls of the land through an organization of this kind and to tell something of the things that have already been accomplished in England and other European countries.

SATURDAY, MARCH 3, 1917 * "Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." — John Stuart Mill. NO COMPROMISE! The short month of February was the birth month of a number of good men notably among whom were George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and last but not least Frederick Douglass. These men live in history and in the hearts of their fellow men because of their uncompromising stand for justice under all circumstances. It is such men as those whose memories are ever kept green, and who deserve to live in the hearts of men. William Lloyd Garrison did not compromise with slavery. He said he would not compromise and he never did. He did not hesitate to denounce the Constitution of the United States He was mobbed in Boston but that did not deter him. He did not compromise, and he fought slavery until freedom came. Charles Summer was another of the uncompromising men who lives in the hearts of those who believe in the Brotherhood of Man. In recent years J. E. Spingarn "took a stand for h. man rights that seemed to put him in the Garrison-Sumner class but lately he has said and done things that have weakened the faith he had inspired. Now he has come out and advocated the establishment of a jim crow military training school where colored men may (if they will accept the situation) have an opportunity to prepare themselves to become officers if this country is plunged into war. Mr. J. E. Spingarn is a Jew. His people have suffered for hundreds of years from the persecutions of alleged Christians. He is the last man on earth who ought to advocate any compromise on the rights of any human being. Mr. Spingarn said in writing about DuBois recently, "unpurchasable leaders do not sell their souls," neither ```markdown ``` THE MAN WHO DARES I honor the man entious discharge o stand alone; the w intolerant judgment the countenances o averted, and the he cold, but the sense be sweeter than the world, the counten the hearts of friend I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. do they compromise the rights of their people. Spingarn the Jew, is classed as a white man in the United States. There is no Jewish problem here. Now that he is out of Russia, from whence he came, leaving the ghetto behind, he is willing to put the colored man in the ghetto here. What is the difference between the segregation in the departments at Washington and segregation in the training of black Americans, who are to fight for their country. What is the difference between the separation of the soldiers of this country and the jim crow cars—the only place on earth where such things obtain. Colored men who desire to prepare to risk their lives in the defense of their native land should be treated as all other American citizens are treated and especially no colored Americans should be parties to any plan to segregate themselves from the other elements of our complex American citizenship. You cannot defeat prejudice by compromising with it. ARE WE TO GET IN THE WAR? The horrible, inhuman, unnecessary war which has devastated millions of acres of the lands across the sea, has cost billions of dollars and millions of lives, seems to be knocking at our door good and hard. We hope we will have wisdom granted to us to avert the catastrophe with honor. It now looks as though the break must come, but all may rest assured that we will be fully equal to the emergency and, as ever, the colored citizens will be found in it up to their necks, as they have never been disloyal to their native land. CHARITY MAKE COWARDS "Charity makes for slaves, cowards and sycophants," said "Mother Jones" of Colorado maze 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 farflous work has been aided by so-called colored leaders who have taken the role of public mandcents and have begged for money to organize jincum 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 coloured people with slavish instincts, cringing, cowards, service sycophants. Great God deliver the people from such charity and give them justice. AS OTHERS SEE US. "O, wad some power the giftie gie' us. To se ourseul as itthers see us." Bobby Burns was, what we would call now-a-days, a "wise girl." We Americans think we are the "whole show," but are we? Sir Rabindranth Tagir, the famous East Indian poet, winner of the Nobel Prize for literature, doesn't think we are, and recently criticized us most unmercifully. He said we are building ugly cities, are too self-assured, are nationally conceived and "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with eve Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is severe That falls asunder at the He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ow To enforce the wrong, f Dooms and devotes him "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT." My soul is sick with every day's report Of wrong and outrage, with which earth is filled. There is no flesh in man's obdurate heart. It does not feel for man: the natural bond Of brotherhood is severed as the flax That falls asunder at the touch of fire. He finds his fellow guilty of a skin Not colored like his own: and having power To enforce the wrong, for such a worthy cause Dooms and devotes him as his lawful prey. * * * * * Thus man devotes his brother, and destroys: "Tis human nature's broadest foulest blot. n who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be hearts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the ances of relatives or s.—Charles Sumner. are forgetting the fine simplicity of life-in our mad rush for money, and we must admit that he is about right. He says, there is more to life than just making money. Life calls for leisure not machine-made days of money-mad activities. "You hurry so you forget that life at its best is just simplicity, taking time to get the things that money can never buy. "Like a popcorn wagon are your modern ideas of life. Everything is popping and bursting in different directions, no peace, no poise anywhere." "WHY AMERICANS FAIL." It is a notorious fact that in spite of Pan-American congresses, long-winded editorials in American newspapers, etcetera, the United States is far behind. Great Britain, France, and Spain so far as trade in Latin-America is concerned. A book by A. Wyatt Verrill on apaul usearmy para pus unqos, Conditions of Today," recently issued by Dodd, Mead & Co., New York, has this to say under the heading, "Why Americans Fail!" "Race or religious prejudice, condescension, discourtesy or bluff have no place in Spanish America. The Latin-American is a gentleman first, last and all the time. He has never acquired our habit of being a gentleman in private life and a boor in business and he expects others to be as courteous as himself and if they are not he judges them accordingly. He may be white, brown, yellow or black, but he remembers that one of his ancestors was probably a plumed grandee of Old Spain. You may scoff at his ideas, you may laugh at his faith, you may curse at the "lazy Greasers," and through it all he may smile, treat you with respect and politeness and greet you with expressions of the greatest pleasure, but in his heart he despises you for an ill-bred "Yankee pig" and thanks God that he is of Spanish blood. On the other hand treat the Latin American with courtesy, praise the buildings and industry of his town, admire his beautiful women, visit his places of interest, and speak his language and you may command respect, admiration and true friendship and every entertainment and comfort will be yours." THE APPEAL has printed a number of editorials along this line showing that Americans have lost millions of dollars through their jincrow methods and it is a great satisfaction to have this view upheld by a great authority thoroughly familiar with conditions. Race prejudice is an expensive proposition for those who indulge in it. The bill introduced in Congress by R. W. Austin of Tennessee to establish a Negro Military Training School is one of the most infamous measures ever introduced at Washington. The colored people of the country, that is the thinking, far-seeing, intelligent people, bow their heads in shame to know that there are colored men so degraded and so indifferent to their standing among men that they will sponsor such a bill. It is sad to think that there are colored men who are willing to barter away their rights as American citizens for the doubtful honor of being patted on the back and called "good negroes." Minnesota is prepared for almost any emergency from a cash basis, as she has $6,274,073 in her treasury and more coming. 'S FOULEST BLOT." is pained every day's report with which earth is filled.

(From the Indianapolis Freeman ) (From the Indianapolis Freeman.) A bill in the house of representation introduced reading in the title: To provide a commission to secure site, plans and designs for a school to train Negro soldiers. The object is to give similar training to that at West Point. The commission will be the commission in Thomas Taggart, former senator of Indiana. Knowing his goodly intentions toward the race one may be assured that the effort will be successful, groes, however, we think, will not be too hurried in seizing what appears an opportunity. They, we think, will be divided in their opinion as to which is the better thing to do: to go on begging, or to ask the government to bring about a greater and a more distinct separation. Jim-Crow Camp Opposed. (Chicago Defender.) In the east Major General Wood of the United States army has started a movement for a separate military training school at New York City. Every man in the east should look upon this with disfavor and oppose it. There should be no segregation it. There should be a military training it should be one and all. The men of the east who think, especially editors and writers, should sound a death knell to this "Jim Crow" proposition. It will not be tolerated in the west because of the lack of other countries all men of all colors and nationalities serve on the same army and fight for the same flag because it does not segregate or discriminate. On the firing line we should be as one. No longer members of the army and fight for the same flag cooks, but as citizen soldiers, wearing the rank of equality, with no injustice or discrimination heralded against them. In case of war a number of southern whites are getting it in their breasts to lead our men to the battlefield, and shown that they have proven themselves to be a lot of chain drivers and we advise them not to let a southern man command them. When you join a voluntary army be led by your own race and not southern officers. You are the north who treat you like humans, and not southerners, who treat you like slaves. The Wilson Preparation Method. (From the New York News.) "I do not believe that colored men should be separated from other Americans in any field of life; but the crisis is too near at hand to discuss principles and opinions, and it seems to me that there is only one thing for you to do at this juncture, and that is to train that will fit you to be officers, how to conduct, and whenever this training may be tained. If two hundred of you do not send applications immediately, the opportunity may be lost forever." Better the opportunity lost forever than that colored men should themselves set up a national military Jim-Crow training camp. The idea is more educated colored men. Professor, are, are. Educated colored men. Professor, are, are. If the country is in the crisis where it is in dire need of colored men to offer up their lives for it. perhaps the United States will eventually yield to the point of having them—the "educated colored men"—containate other colored men and Plattsburg and sacred, gentlemen of the National Advancement Association for Colored People, you really do not want educated colored men to set up national Jim-Crow institutions in this century America and then go out to lay down the ground to perpetuate these Jim-Crow institutions in the free and the home of the brave. Unthinking and unjust as is this proposition that educated colored men must accept different training camps to prepare for war, it differs not at all from the situation of the post office official that clerks should get different wages from white clerks. In this crucial hour these are mad measures, which will dispirite the patriotism and energy of the people. The concentration and co-operation, hammery and union of the forces of all the people beneath the Stars and Stripes, should be the watchwords of the preparation. In bitter hours of direct action, the people come to this conclusion. This is not the Wilson way. The American government will eventually come to it. Why not now? Let the black man fight the fight for a square deal and for one service; both postal and military.

(From Amsterdam News.) Editor Amsterdam News: Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouragement by the news group, Negro. There is no greater delay in addressing the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor in bringing the present to bring about both a desire to segregate the people of color and a segregation of the people of color. Your use is on the increase only because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bols and Washington feel that its retribution, and a nausea, is necessary to force the people to mass. The term "Negro" is not only accurate as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarming injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in a national world, for anything noble or unplitting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but humans, Sudanese and Senegambians only. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negro-head, Negro-fy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. Its justly and correctly used defines your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. It has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing about an unworthy or criminal man or woman of the race. For when he asked the worthy he invariably says color. f. It is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigge." 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, Asiatic and Islanders of the Yonder world. Very truly yours. OWEN M. WALLER, M. D. 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 blacks, because they are being used in contempt in public places, disfranchisement him; and it is an excuse for lynching him.

OUR NEED OF JUXTAPOSITION That we much rather be associated among ourselves, is a saying by Colored Americans that has become almost true. That is a mistake; it is a feeling of avowed cowardice and it is impoverished for it. It is an utter impediment to serbe to a common government, and, at the same time, each race work out its own salvation. The "theory" has been tried and resulted into a ghastly failure instead of making for harmony and between two races, it has increased race hatred and antagonism in leaps and bounds. We have heeded too long the advice from false and treachery, wrong, that it only breeds race hatred and antagonism; that the thing for us to do is to get property and other rights will inevitably follow. We have fully and have been rewarded in terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, ant-internarriage—which is of the blackest pieces of legislation and the resulting from "non-resistance" and the traumatizing by "self-selves." That with the same degree of efforty and terrible legislation with which our property is taken and confiscated, with this same efforty and terrible legislation with which our manhood rights be taken from us. That is a fact. Every congress of offensys legislation degrading and imminial to our well being. Race predation, can only be worn down by attrition. Children, and go ourselves, to mixed institutions and other places where we can mix with the other races and consequently become accustomed to the same sort of WE MUST WELCOME AND PRACTICE JUXTAPOSITION. (Gerald Stanley Lee in Mount Tom). I am a human being. I do not propose to be cooped up or shut in in my hands and criticism to mere geographical and cultural boundaries on planet. This planet is small enough as it is, when one considers the height and depth—the starry height and depth—of the human spirit that inhabits the planet. Wagner and Shakespeare, Tolstot and Mollere! Though the cathedrals quarrel together and sing praises with siege-suns to their own little foolishness, they stand on each other's naves, I take new stars 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, in by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all alike. I will not say of any of the others, and I will not say of the others; and I will not say of any man what I will not say of myself. Agreed to Be "Set Aside." (From the Eagle, Washington, D. C.) No, the colored delegates to the M. E. General Conference, held at Saratoga Springs, N. Y., recently, did not attend arrangements to be "imprisoned" assigned to segregated into a colored general conference, to be presided over by a white bishop, being denied the priviledge of own labor in the Master's vineyard, from now the two wings of the M. E. church, North and South, will unite and the separation of the colored delegates to the 250,000 bishopric honors to the 250,000 municipalities are to clear the way for the approaching "love feast." There is verity in the assertion that, the church is a social manifestation, with religion as a by-product.
