Dr. Rice Has Mapped About 100,000 Square Miles In Vicinity of Mightiest Stream In World-Yacht Protected With Rust Proof Screens to Ward Off Flying Pests. New York.—The people of the great forest are again to see Dr. A. Hamilton Rice. With Mrs. Rice he left here on the yacht Alberta for the river of the Amazons to complete his explorations in the northwestern part of the basin of the mightiest stream in all the world. Mrs. Rice, who was formerly Mrs. George D. Widener of Philadelphia, is herself interested in science and will help in the work of the expedition. She has been directing until recently the building and equipping of the great library at Harvard university which is a memorial to Mr. Widener, who was lost on the steamship Titanic. The yacht will stop first at Barbados and then go up the Amazon to Manaos, Brazil, 650 miles from the coast, and then into the Rio Negro to Santa Isa. DR. ALEXANDER H. RIGR. bel, the base of the explorations. The region to which Dr. Rice and the scientists accompanying him are to give their attention is bounded on the north by the Guaviare river, on the west by the Andes, on the south by the Caqueta river and on the east by the Río Megro. The territory included in the plan comprises parts of Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia. Dr. Rice has mapped about 100,000 square miles of this region. He proposes to make a survey of the tributaries of the Rio Negro and to complete as nearly as he can the maps of enormous tracts yet practically unexplored. So well equipped is this expedition that it is expected that it will accomplish more work in the six months it will be away than could be done in twice that period under ordinary conditions. The yacht Alberta is in herself a veritable floating citadel armed against trouble. One of the plagues of tropical South America comes from the Insects. There are many flies and mosquitoes that inflict painful bites and cause disease. To ward off the flying pests Dr. Rice has had the Alberta equipped with rustproof screens of fine copper mesh, so that every deck and every port hole will be protected. There are other insects to be guarded against, among them various kinds of ants. One of the worst of them is the leaf cutting ant, the sauba, which will eat up the ordinary tarletan mosquito net as though it were one of much cobweb. In the account of it one of his previous expeditions Dr. Rice tells how the ants devoured not only a mosquito net, but a pair of trousers and the pockets of his coat. The tabano or blood sucking fly is a menace to life in this part of the Amazon basin. The chigos burrow into the skin and cause intense suffering. With the copper mesh screens and with other appliances for warding off the insects, the party expects to reduce the discomfort from this source to the minimum. SIX HOUR DAY IN SING SING Warden Cuts Down Labor of the Convicts. Ossining, N. Y.—The six hour day has arrived in Sing Sing. By order of, Warden Derrick the prisoners quit work in the various shops at 3 o'clock instead of 4, as was the custom before this time. The men start work at 8 in the morning and in the middle of the day have an hour off for dinner. With the shortening of the day Warden Derrick announced the men must work steadily. An Egg Every Day. Baltimore, Md—Mittchell Lingo of Trinity, near Federalburg, says he has the champion egg layer in a two-year-old hen. The hen has had in the same spot in the barn all year, and Lingo, backed by officials of that town, states that she laid 365 eggs last year. KING GEORGE'S BADGES FOR INVALID SOLDIERS Medals Also Will Be Awarded to Queen's Nursing Service. London.—It is officially announced, says the London Times, that on the recommendation of the army council the king has approved the issue of a silver badge to officers and men of the British, Indian and oversea forces who have served at home or abroad since Aug. 4, 1914, and who on account of age or physical infirmity arising from wounds or sickness caused by military service have, in the case of officers, retired or relinquished their commissions or, in the case of privates, been discharged from the army. The badge will also be awarded to members of Queen Alexandra's imperial military nursing service, regular, reserve and territorial force. Queen Alexandra's nursing service for India and members of voluntary aid detachments who have quitted the service under above conditions; also to civil practitioners and to other civilians who, having occupied positions normally held by officers or other ranks of the royal army medical corps under a fixed agreement for a period of service, have been forced to resign by physical incapacity caused by military service. The badge is in the form of a circle, an inch and a quarter in diameter. The circle bears the words "For King and Empire-Services Rendered," and circumscribes the imperial elder surrounded by a crown. 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 men who dashed through a curtain of fire to his rescue when he fell helplessly wounded. He says that all the time the stretcher bearers were doing things which deserved the distinguished conduct medal, and he told of 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. He took no notice. 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 tolling, devoted company who did not hear the awful clamor of the shells, but calmly faced a silent death. The "Pals" whom he has so often amused 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. Through the courtesy of the secretary of the navy, permission has been granted for the cruiser to take aboard at Jaffa the wives and children of American citizens who desire to leave the country and come to the United States. The passage from Jaffa to Alexandria occupies about thirty-six hours. LUCKY COIN TO DAUGHTER. Governor Pennypacker Carried It In Pocket For Fifty-five Years Pocket For Fifty-five Years. Norristown, Pa.-The will of former Governor Samuel W. Pennypacker, just admitted to probate, distributes an estate estimated at $2,000 to $5,000 among his widow and children. One of the odd features of the will is the clause which leaves to his daughter, Josephine W. Pennypacker, "the silver dollar given me by my grandmother, which has been in my pocket wherever I have been and wherever I have gone during the last fifty-five years." This coin, says the testator, "is the one concrete thing most closely associated with me personally." Oldest Active Minister. Pasadena, Cal.-Rev. David Jordan Higgins, former Geneva M. E. church pastor, was ninety-nine on Sept. 17. He is believed to be the oldest minister in the United States who is still active as a preacher and a writer. minnesota Historical Society THE ST. PAUL AND M THE APPEAL MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY OFFICE BOY NOW MUST BE A CHAUFFEUR 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: Suburbanites 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 a 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 expense of starting up 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 WIPEOUT 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 song and 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 of 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, possibly in April or May of next year, 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 mayors 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 heads of the boy scouts in each state and to other organizations which might be 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 birds at night after they have gone to roost. WOMAN 100 YEARS OLD. Mrs. Van Sickle Takes Active Part In Her Birthday Celebration. Sussex, N. J.-Surrounded by 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 fourthdth birthday. She took an active part in the celebration and urged the younger ones to dance and play games while she looked on and directed things. 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 claims much of her time, but she is not able to thread the needle as dexterously as once. BABEL OF TONGUES 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 $3,000 who speak foreign tongues. If these can be induced to 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 grown on his estate in Norfolk one of the best crops of corn ever raised in the state. Here is what the crop cost him: Cost of plowing three and a half acres, $25; cost of phosphate, $40; cost of planting, $5; cost of cultivation, $30; cost of lime, $12.50; total, $12.50. Estimated yield of corn, 600 bushels, worth $300. 1. APP INNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SAT SAVING OF LIMBS American Surgeon's Fluid Avoids Hundreds of Amputations. CALL BENEFITS WONDERFUL. Many More Could Have Been Saved Had Value Been Felt Earlier—Young South American Surgeon First to Attract Attention of French Government to Carrel Treatment. Paris. — The official lethargy which for so long has impeded the development of the disinfectant fluid invented by H. D. Dehis and Perfected by Dr. Alexis Carrel, both of the Rockefeller institute of New York, is rapidly giving way to a realization of the tremendous benefits accruing from its use. It remained for a young South American surgeon, Dr. Shutro, to attract the attention of the French government to I DR. ALEXIS CARREL. The Carrel treatment. As a result of an appeal by American admirers of Dr. Carrel to M. Franklin-Bouillon, the latter persuaded the government, in the person of M. Painleve, to study at first hand the use of the Dakin fluid. The correspondent was present when the minister of public instruction, who was the first member of the cabinet to take such a step, visited the Buffon hospital, close by the Pasteur institute, to see for himself the miracles worked by Dr. Shutro with the treatment developed by Dr. Carrel. Dr. Shutro is perhaps the ablest of Dr. Carrel's few disciples in France. M. Painleve was astonished at the simplicity of the system, which is merely the washing of the wounds with bleaching lime diluted in water, with a percentage of soda added to neutralize the caustic effect of the lime. At the foot of each bedstead in the Buffon hospital is strapped a wooden post, to which a bottle containing the fluid, pink in color, is attached. From the bottle a thin rubber tube carries the solution to four small glass tubes, from which the wound is flushed every two hours. Thus the dressings are kept moist and the wound is freed from infection. WOULD EGG HENS ON TO LAY Food Eugenil Has Plan to Control Their Output. Washington.—Out of the din and clamor for federal legislation to deal a solar plexus blow to the high cost of living came a unique and eugenic suggestion from a southern representative. The legislator announced his intention of introducing a resolution for compulsory egg control for hens. He expressed belief that it might be easy to curb output, but was perplexed as to the practicability of speeding up the lay to any appreciable extent. He says, however, he believes his plan makes the matter of investigation pale into insignificance. Pays For Fan Stolen Years Ago. Greenville, S. C.—A woman who is seeking to "make peace with her Maker," as she expresses it, and who finds that something is hindering her has sent to a local dry goods company 25 cents to pay for a fan which, she says, she took from that company twenty-five years ago. The woman now lives in North Carolina. In the letter she stated that she stole the fan and that her conscience has hurt her. Railroad Director at Sixteen. Aurora, Ill.—The youngest railroad director in the world lives in Aurora. The distinguished youngster is Henry Herbert Evans, sixteen years old. He was elected one of the Fox and Illinois Union railroad board at the last annual meeting. His father is secretary and treasurer of the railroad. The railroad is twenty two miles in length. Defective Page ASLEEP, NOT DEAD. Printer Woke Up In Time to Dodge the Coroner and Undertaker. Coroner and Undertaker. Mount Pleasant, N. Y. - Harry Daugherty, a printer, was dead to all intents and purposes the other evening. The members of the household where he lived so reported to an undertaker and the coroner. The coroner immediately notified the man's parents of his death and asked the relatives if they wanted an investigation made. When the coroner and the undertaker, carrying a dead basket between them, opened the gate leading into the yard they met Daugherty, hale and hearty, going to work. Exhausted from a long day's work, Daugherty had lain down on the bed for a nap when another member of the household, seeing him, became frightened and, thinking him dead, notified the authorities. OPERATES ON RIGID JAWS. Surgeen Uses a Cushion of Fat to Make Them Work. Philadelphia.—A patient whose jaws had been rigid for twenty years, who had never learned to talk and who had been obliged to obtain all his nourishment through a tube, was the subject of one of the many operations performed at the various clinics here as part of the activities of the clinical congress of surgeons of North America. The joints of the patient's jaws had hardened after an attack of scarlet fever when he was only a year old. Dr. W. Wayne Babcock laid open the stiffened joints, scraped away a hard bony substance which was found covering them and inserted a cushion of fat taken from another part of the man's body. AUTO AIDS GUNNERS. Makes Adirondacks Accessible For Week End Trips. Utica, N. Y.—In most sections of the Adirondacks game is plentiful. More and more each year the automobile is being used by gunners, particularly those who live in the cities and towns near the forests. Thousands of hunters are going into the woods for week end trips, and machines are also used for the purpose of taking the hunters from one good ground to another. This of course relates to small game, and it is surprising how many good places can be covered by this method of gunning. The new law prohibits any gunning from an automobile, but the machine makes the innermost recesses of the forests accessible to the gunner who has a car. FLY SAVES BOY'S LIFE. Accidentally Discharged Bullet Only Hurt His Arm. La Crose, Wls.-A飞 saved the life of Carl Kaeppler, thirteen years old, while he was hunting in the vicinity of Swift creek with William Stellick, fifteen years old. Carl felt something irritating his forehead and raised his arm to brush the fly aside. At the same instant Stellick, who was only a few paces distant, accidentally discharged a rife he was carrying. The bullet passed through the fleshy part of young Kaeppler's arm and, although most of its force was spent, struck the boy in the head. Physicians said he probably would have been killed had not his arm been in the way of the bullet. COYOTE ATTACKS AUTOIST. After It Was Run Over It Wanted to Bite the Driver. Reno, Nev.—That a coyote that will attack the front end of any automobile traveling thirty miles an hour, allow himself to be run over and then get up and attack the driver of the car who out of curiosity stopped to see what damage was done must be mad is the opinion of P. Y. Gillson, who enjoyed this experience on Lakeview hill, near Carson, the other night. The coyote was game, according to Gillson, but was so badly cut up that it was easily driven off with rocks before it bit any one. Gillson was accompanied on the trip by County Commissioner Henrich. Mints Working Twenty-four Hours a Day to Relieve the Conditions. Washington. - What this country needs today is more pennies, says the treasury department. To that end the Philadelphia and San Francisco mints are working twenty-four hours a day and the Denver mint sixteen hours a day turning them out. A lot of reasons are given for the shortage, the chief one being the increased use of the copper coins, with every dealer in everything adding a penny every now and then. New York.—When Ernest G. Woerz millionaire brewer, on his deathbed ceased to ask whether the Giants won or lost, Katherine Haas, employed in the household, knew a "great change" had come. She testified to the $2,000,000 will contest before Surrogate Cobalan, in New York. Old Woman Starts Ranch. Salina. Kan.-Mrs. Minerva Conway, seventy years old, has gone to New Mexico, where she will settle on a claim under the rights of a civil war veteran's widow. She takes 320 acres adjoining a claim her son settled on two years ago. She will make it a stock bank. AEROPLANES QUICKEST SUBMARINE ANTIDOTE Speed and Range of Vision Three Times that of Destroyer. Washington.—Rear Admiral Peary, chairman of the National Aerial Coast Patrol Commission, when the break with Germany came emphasized the bearing of the critical international situation on the necessity for an adequate aerial plane patrol. "If congress," he went on, "should order the immediate mobilization of all air men in the country and the training of 5,000 aviators, should enlist the various aerial organizations and interests of the country in registering applicants and should make mandatory the training of 2,500 aviators in six months and of the entire 5,000 in a year it would go far toward remedying a present defect in our defense which presents possibilities of the gravest danger. "The aeroplane will be the quickest and cheapest antidote for the submarine. Its speed and range of vision are three times that of the fastest destroyers. It can detect and follow a submarine that is entirely invisible to any surface craft. It can destroy the submarine when it comes near the surface. One thousand hydroaeroplanes along our Atlantic coast will double the efficiency of our destroyers and mosquito fleet and increase the value of our coast protection from 200 to 300 per cent." BEAN SHOOTER MINDS MAKE RACE OF BORES All Too Much Alike, Says Dr. Vincent, Rockefeller Foundation Head. Chicago.—Dr. George Edgar Vincent, president of the University of Minnesota and president elect of the Rockefeller foundation, spoke on "Crowd Psychology" to 500 members of the Chicago Dental society at their fifty-third annual banquet. Some of his epigrams were: "The truth is, we are so much alike that we bore each other almost to distraction." "Some people have tubular minds, like bean shooters. You load them at one end and shoot the contents out of the other." "Idots and children are the only ones you cannot hypnotize." "A society for the suppression of the obvious remark would soon fill a city block." Dr. Vincent is one of the most rapid of after dinner orators. His humor found ready response from the members of the society and their wives and daughters. He said that his standards of ideals were abstractions from human personality. "The hard headed person," he ended, "is one into whose brain you cannot drill an idea when he is not looking." PONDER FIRST RECRUIT. Postmistress Gets Reward of $5 For "Soldier of the Sea." Atlanta, Ga.—Ye feminine is rapidly outstripping her masculine rivals in military affairs, as a postmistress, like Joan of Arc. leads in the lure of the fighting man. In the activities of the postmaster campaign for recruits for the United States marine corps the first person to receive the $5 reward for the securing of a recruit for the "soldiers of the sea" was a woman, Miss Mary Rudihil, handler of the mails in Forsyth, Ga., who enlisted Richard Lewis Ponder of that place, according to First Sergeant Ernest H. Galway of the local marine corps recruiting station. "There may be nothing in a name," mused Galway, "but he was the first, and that makes one ponder." SAWS WOOD AT NINETY-TWO Having Finished Job, Says He Wants Pickeler While Ice Lasts. New York.-Garrett Iseman, ninety-two years old, dung the last neatly cloven stick on a seven foot woodpile behind his house at Sparkill, Rockland county, and went up to the attic to overhaul his fishing tackle. Having finished sawing and splitting his winter's wood supply, he is going after some pickeler while the ice lasts. "You won't find any knots slung under the house either," he told neighbors who complimented him on his vigor. Iseman worked on the first train that ran over the Erie railroad and was an engineer on that line for forty years. He retired more than thirty years ago. WEDS HIS STEPMOTHER. Queer Family Tangle Arises After the Marriage. Gallipolis, O.-Willard Houser was married recently to Mrs. Stella Houser, his stepmother, who is the mother of three children by Houser's father. Houser's father died three months ago. The newlyweds reside at Chapman, in Jackson county, near here. By Willard's marriage to his stepmother he becomes stepfather as well as half brother to his wife's children. Chinese Coins on Women's Hats. Sloux City, Ia.--War prosperity has caused milliners here to add a fifth season to the four now recognized by the trade. The new one has a style all its own, say dealers, the advance in price of Chinese coins from 8 cents to $1.50 having lent charm to them as decorations for women's hats. In business, fortunes are not realized Unless your goods are amply advertised. $2.40 PER YEAR. SOARS OVER FIGHT Financier Sees Somme Battle From an Aeroplane. BEHIND THE GERMAN LINES. Henry P. Davison of J. P. Morgan & Co. Courses Leisurely Up and Down In Wide Circles Over Battlefield For an Hour, Watching Mighty Drama Directly Below. New York.—To climb into a French armed aeroplane during moments of a terrific final assault on the Somme, then to course leisurely up and down and in wide circles over the battlefield for an hour watching between one's sides the mighty drama directly below and finally to fly more than three miles straight back over the Germans' country during the battle and get away with it—that would be a flying trip which most Americans would want to talk about when they got home. But not so Henry P. Davison of J. P. Morgan & Co., who arrived "home from the war" on the American line Philadelphia, accompanied by Ma. De ```markdown ``` Photo by American Press Association. HENRY P. DAVISON. vison and daughter, Miss Alice. Mr. Davison had done all those things in the air while in France, but he did not seem to think much of the experience. Mr. Davison said that he ascended at Peronne. The French officer first had taken him to a great height—about a mile—and then had swung out over the great guns booming far below. The biplane in which they flew, Mr. Davison said, was arranged admirably for observation of the bombardments and infantry fighting below, and the great height at which he viewed the battle—it was on Sept. 27 last—enabled him to look down upon a tremendous sweep of battle ridden country at all times. He had made a pretty thorough tour of the trenches at Verdun also, he said in answer to further questions about experiences at the front. Then he had devoted six days solely to traveling by automobile and on foot along the whole line of trenches from Verdun to the British trenches on the Somme. On a nearby table as he spoke was a rusty looking German helmet and a rustier shell case which he had picked up on battlefields, and on the same table was the gray blue steel helmet of France which General Petain had given to him to wear in the trenches. "No, it wasn't altogether idle curiosity that took me to the front," Mr. Davison said in reply to a final question. "As somebody has put it, there was an opportunity to see history in the making and I took it, not through curiosity, but because I wanted to learn something of military advancement at first hand." POTATOES LIFT MORTGAGE Jersey Farmer Raises 9,200 Barrels on Eighty Acres. Red Bank, N. J. — Henry Holmdel raised 9,200 barrels of potatoes on eighty acres this year. This was at the rate of over 110 barrels and acre. With the proceeds from the yield he paid off a $20,000 mortgage still remaining on his farm, which he purchased three years ago for $57,000, paying $7,500 down. Holmdel's crops on 150 acres, where he didn't plant potatoes, returned for the year a profit which the farmer calls "pure velvet." Ring Upon a Radish. Tiffin, O. — Four years ago Mrs. W. H.

SATURDAY, MARCH 10, 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. DR. FRANK CRANE IS RIGHT. One of the versatile, wise and logical writers of the day is Dr. Frank Crane and his daily articles are among the most widely read of the syndicated articles that appear in the daily papers using them. They are always good, sometimes better and one, the best we have seen lately, is upon "Capital Punishment," which he says, "should have no place in a civilized country." And then he gives an even dozen of reasons why. One of the best reasons he gives is that, "capital punishment is irreparable." The state cannot give life and therefore should not take it, "nobody knows what death means." This has been our private and public opinion for many years and it affords us much satisfaction to find that we are in Dr. Crane's class in our belief. It makes very little difference to the victim or his relatives and friends whether he is murdered by a mob, an individual or the state. Capital punishment should be abolished. DESPISE NOT THE DAY OF SMALL THINGS. According to the report of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis just made, $1,000,000 was raised from the sale of Red Cross Christmas Seals during the recent holiday season. For the past eight years these seals were sold annually during the holiday season and a sum total of $4,206,051 has been raised from the sale of the little stamps at one cent each. This vast sum has been used in the fight against the "white plague." IRON CROSS FOR VARDAMAN. Thomas Collins, a Biloxi, Mississippi blacksmith, has forged a forty-pound iron cross and sent it to Sen- 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 friends 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. actor James K. Varduman with the inscription, "Lest the kaiser forget." Vardaman was one of the filibusterers who obstructed public business in the senate. Now if one of the Mississippi "negroes" who are so often abused by Jim Kay in his speeches, should take it into his head to attach the cross to the neck of the senator with a good strong cord and then cause the body to fall into the Gulf of Mexico, not many tears would be shed, even by the so-called "white" people of Mississippi. "THE BEST SPIRIT OF AMERICA." Senators Stone, La Follette, et al, are lauded by the German press comments as representatives of "the best spirit in America," according to dispatches received in Amsterdam summarizing German editorial views on the senate filibuster. It is well that the filibusterers are applauded abroad. They are almost universally condemned in the United States, but perhaps they prefer the smile of the kaiser to the approval of their countrymen. Wilhelm ought to decorate each one of the thirteen with an iron cross. 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 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 mobsbed 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 has taken a stand for human 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 advocates 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 do they compromise the rights of their people. Spmgarn 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 colored Americans, who are to fight for their country. What is the difference between the separation of the soldiers of this "HUMAN NATURE My ear is My soul is sick with ev Of wrong and outrage, There is no flesh in man It does not feel for man Of brotherhood is seve That falls asunder at the He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ov To enforce the wrong, f Dooms and devotes his "HUMAN NATURE'S FOULEST BLOT."

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. AS OTHERS SEE US "O, wad some power the gittie gie' us, to se ourSELF as itthers see us." Bobby Burns was, what we would call now-a-days, a "wise guy." We Americans think we are the "whole show," but are we? Sir Rabindranath Tagore, the famous East Indian poet, winner of the Nobel Prize for literature, doesn't think we are, and recently criticized us most unfortunate. He said we are building ugly cities, are too self-assured, are nationally conceived and 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." 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. 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. Minnesota is prepared for almost any emergency from a cash basis, as she has $6,274,073 in her treasury and more coming. Protests Jim Crow Camp. (From the New York Age) The Age joins with the Baltimore Afro-American and other race papers in registering a protest $a_{1}$ against the establishment of a "Jim Crow" milieu, training camp or colored men as advocates of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. Like Professor Spingar, we look with confidence to segregation of colored clerks in the courts of the departments at Washington, but unlike Professor Spingar, we are unalterably opposed to the segregation of Negro citizens in military camps conducted by the government of the United States. 'S FOULEST BLOT." is pained every day's report with which earth is filled. 's obdurate heart. n: the natural bond ered as the flax the touch of fire. ty of a skin wn: and having power for such a worthy cause as his lawful prov 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, where he will teach him upon this with disfavor and oppose it. There should be no segregation in an army of the United States. If there should be a military training it should be one and all. The men of the officers and writers, should sound a death knell to this "Jim Crow" proposition. It will not be tolerated in the west and should not be in the east. In the north, the officers and nationalists serve on the same army and fight for the same flag because it does not segregate or discriminate. On the firing line we have to be careful of the race should be looked upon as cooks, but as citizen soldiers, wearing the rank of equality, with no injustice or discrimination. Heralded men are in case of a number of southern men, who do not in their breasts to lead our men to the battlefield. In the past they have shown that they have proven them and so of chain drivers and we advise them not to be a southern man command them. When you join a voluntary army be led by members of your own race and not southern officers. Be led by men of southern officers. Be led by men of southern officers 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 Ameri- cies in crisis or from other crises is too near at hand to discuss cri- cies and opinions, and it seems to me that there is only one thing for you to get trained, juncture, and that is to get the training for your officers, however and wherever and whenever this training may be ob- jected to two hundred of you do not apply and opportunity may be lost forever." Better the opportunity lost forever than that colored men should themself set up a national military Jim-Crow training camp. The idea is more educated colored men, Professor, are not in the crisis where 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"—containment other American colleges like Littsburgh. In the name of all the land 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 in places and then go out to lay down their lives in the land of Jim-Crow institutions in the land of the free and the home of the brave. Uthinking and unjust as is this proposition that educated colored men must accept different training camps and not at all in practice, that they are all in practice from this day of the post office official that colored clerks should get different wages from white clerks. In this crucial hour these are mad measures, which will divide and dissipate the patriotism and white Concentration and co-operation. Concentration and co-operation, mony and union of the forces of all the people beneath the Stars and Stripes, should be the watchwords of the nation's preparation. In bitter opposition, the nation comes 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 when he fights for a square deal in one service, both postal and military. HAMPTON AND TUSKEGEE.

(From Amsterdam News.) Editor: Amsterdam, Nearby. Sir: I cannot too heartily congratulate you on a recent editorial discouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States than the unfortunate term. Why? They realize that it is the most potential factor at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental change in the lives of people use is on the increase now because our speakers and writers, especially Do Bols and Washington feel that its repetition, ad nausea, is necessary to make a good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not accurately as applied to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly injurious, for the following reasons: a. It has never stood historically or in history as a term for anything noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was never applied to the higher types, but to the ones, Sudanese and Senegambian. c. Its derivatives, "Negroism," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negro-head, Negro-fy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. In their associations, they are justly and correctly used to define your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. It is 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 speaks of the worthy he invariably saddens. f. It is not differentated in the mind and thought of the whites from their favorite and generally used (among themselves) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigro 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. 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 town and the use of the town in public places. It is disfranchisement him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people of America can trace their descent to America.

OUR NEED OF JUXTAPOSITION (FROM THE Boston Guardian) From the boston Guardian. The face much rather be, and associate Colored Americans that has become almost true. That is a mistake; it is a feeling of avowed cowardice and innate inferiority. It is an utter inability to subscribe to a common government at the same time, each race work its own salivation. The "theory" has been tried and resulted into a ghastly failure; instead of making for harbors between two races, it has increase-race hatred and antagonism in leaps and bounds. We have heeded too long the advice from false and treachery, wrong that it only breeds red and antagonism; that the thing for us to do is to get property and other rights will inevitably follow. We have followed this "advice"厉厉 in the past, but the terms of residence segregation, street segregation, confiscation and loss of property, anti-internarriage—which is of the blackest pieces of legislation defenseless and at the mercy of white brutes — separate schools, jimcrow cars, and even legislating to exclude further Negro immigration. These "non-resistance" and "rather be by ourselves." That with the same degree of efforty and terrible legislation with which our property is taken and confiscated, with this same efforty and non-resistance, manhood rights be taken from us. That is a fact. Every congress of fers legislation degrading and inimical to our well being. Race prejudice by attrition. We must send our children, and go ourselves, to mix institutions and other places where we can mix with the other races and one another. ABOVE ALL THINGS 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 my live and criticism to mere geographical distance. I am on another 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 lives on Earth. I am a Wagner and Shakespeare. Tolkien and Mollerre! Though the cathedrals catered together and sing praises with siege-guns to their own little foolish warriors, I am bombs on each other's naves. I like to be the great bells ringing in their towers, by the souls of their poets overriding the years, by the prayers of their heroes, artists, inventors, by the mothers and the little children. We are all in the same world. We are all alike. I will not say of any 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. C., recently, did not "walk" to the delegates, but did not arrangements to be "set aside" to be segregated into a colored general conference, to be presided over by a chair, being denied the privilege of directing the laborers in the Master's vineyard. Then from now the two wings of the M. E. church, North and South, will unite in separation of the colored members of the bishopric honors to the 350,000 civilicumicans are designed to clear the way for the approaching "love feast." that is verity in the assertion that, in its civilicifications, the church is a social organization, with religion as a by-product.
