Novelist Bravely Fought Mysterious Sickness Which Could Not Be Diagnosed by Australian Specialists Finally Decided He Had Been Torn to Pieces by Ultra Violet Rays. Sydney, Australia.—The recent death of Jack London, the California novelist, recalls the extraordinary physical reasons for his stay of about five years was a blond, and his sojourn, from what he himself subsequently wrote in "The Cruise of the Snack" and the alcoholic memoir "John Barleycorn" and those in the commonwealth who became insulted to him, now remember, was one of torture left the cockleoble Snark, in which he and his wife had been cruising about the Pacific, at one of the islands and came.

He said of his Australian sojourn: "I went to Australia to go into a hospital, where I spent five weeks. I spent five months miserably sick in hotels. The mysterious malady that afflicted my hands was too much for the Australian specialists. It was unknown in the literature of medicine. No, case like it had ever been reported." It extended from my hands to my feet so that at times I was as helpless as a child. On occasion my hands were twice their natural size, with seven dead and dying skins peeling off at the end of the day. There were times when my toenails in our hours grew as thick as they were inside another twenty-four hours they were as thick as before. The Australian specialists agreed that the malady was nonparasitic and therefore it must be nervous." The aliment did not mend, and the novelist and his wife had to abandon the cruise in the Snark. Yet when London had returned to California, where his health had invariably been excellent, his recovery was complete, and strangely enough the California climate is very like that of Australia. Later on London ran across the book Woodruff, United States armies, entitled "Effects of Tropical Light on White Men," and what had baffled the Australian specialists, was no longer inexplicable. London wrote to Colonel Woodruff describing his illness in Australia, and the latter, whose researches in tropical medicine, especially in the Philippines, have given him a high repute in his profession, replied that he had been similarly afflicted in the Philippines. Besides himself, Colonel Woodruff, the novelist, no fewer than sixteen of his army surgeons were utterly at a loss to count for the colonel's malady. But in time the colonel solved the riddle. London says: "I had a strong predisposition toward tissue destructiveness by tropical light. I had been torn in pieces by ultra violet rays." PUTS UP EGGS AS BAIL BOND What's More, Police Accept Them From Reckless Driver. Hutchinson, Kan.-When J. J. Pankratz, a farmer, arrested on a charge of reckless driving, learned the amount of his bond he was unable to put up the cash and could think of no one on whom to call.

REFUSES FORTUNE LEFT BY HIS MOTHER-IN-LAW Former Diplomat Prefers That Money Should Go to His Wife. New York.—Charles H. Sherrill, minister to Argentina when Mr. Taft was president and organizer of the great preparedness parade here, has refused to accept $100,000 bequeathed to him by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Sarah Barker Gibbs, who died last May, leaving $642,700 to Mrs. Sherrill. "His declaration became known when announcement was made from the state controller's office that an official appraisal had placed the net estate at $855,490. Mr. Sherrill told a reporter his telephone from his home in Sixty-fifth street that while he was deeply moved by the bequest he preferred that it should go to the residuary estate and become part of his wife's share. The former diplomat seemed to feel that it was a thing of no consequence to look $100,000 in the face or faces and then turn a cold shoulder. "It really wouldn't interest anybody he said of his refusal. "I don't like it. It's rather too personal for discussion. I'd rather have the sum go into the residuary estate and revert to Mrs. Sherrill." ALL TRANSIT LINES IN NEW YORK GREATLY TAXED ALL TRANSIT LINES IN NEW YORK GREATLY TAXED City Traffic Increasing at Rate of More Than 100,000,000 Annually. New York.—In November the subway carried an average of 1,199,623 passengers a day and the "L" 1,014,883, a total of 2,214,506, according to a statement issued by the Interborough Rapid Transit company. Public Service Commissioner Whitney estimates that city traffic is increasing at the rate of more than 100,000,000 annually. More than 323 miles additional of subway and elevated lines are being built. In 1872 a total of 183,722,196 passengers were carried, or 147 rides during the year for each person in the city. In 1882, the first year of the "L", 282,510,832 passengers were carried, or 215 rides for each person in the city. In 1906, the first year of the subway, 836,661,206 were carried, or 298 rides for each person. Under the caption of "Struggling to Keep Up With New York" the Interborough officials say: "Each year the problem of handling the millions of New York traffic grows increasingly difficult. The struggle is hard, not to anticipate the city's future needs, but merely to keep up with the present. Extensions of transit facilities, no matter how rapid, do not seem able to keep pace with crowds and congestion. "In September the subway carried a daily average of 1,099,000 passengers. By November this average was increased to 1,199,000 daily. "All this traffic, too, it should be remembered, was on lines designed originally to care for 400,000 passengers daily." "Always it is the same story. No matter how fast rapid transit lines are built in New York city, the transportation population seem to keep ahead of them." LEFT FORTUNE TO SERVANT. Relatives of Dead Woman Fight the Bequest. Carlyle, Ill.—Kate Mulcahy, gray haired and rheumatic, is heir to an estate between $100,000 and $200,000, left by her mistress, John McCabe, but relatives of the dead woman are going to try to break the will.

They'll Sling It For All They're Worth, but Only Highbrow Variety. Chicago—Slam. If it is of the highbrow variety, will still be in vogue among the co-eds at Northwestern university and the University of Chicago. And this despite the announcement that the women of Vassar have put the "kibosh" on it in all its variations. Eastern girls are putting on airs, the Chicago co-eds, who declare they intend to sling slang for all they are worth, but only, of course, the refined and cultured kind. "Highbrow slang is not like the low, vulgar kind," declared Miss Norma Culver at Northwestern university. "It's just expressive slang, one more perfectly first. Yes, 'perfectly first' is cultured slang, and it's a ripping phrase." "We've got to use slang," pleaded Miss McConnell, also of the Northwestern. "If we didn't we would not be able to understand the men." Almost the same arguments were offered by the girls at the University of Chicago, where "shoot," meaning "begin speaking," "hit the tub" and "beat it" are not only permissible, but necessary. "But vulgar slang will be tolerated," said Miss Helen Lindsay of Greenwood hall. "When I hear girls using it I always bawl them out." NEW TYPE OF MINE TO PROTECT COASTS Artillery Perfects an Improved Device Which Rises and Falls With the Tide. New York.—A new type of submarine mine which has recently been perfected by the coast artillery branch of the United States army and which will be issued to forts guarding American harbors as soon as possible was described by officers who have been follo- warded to forts guarding American war thunderstrike over the possibilities of the new weapon affords of simplifying and making more effective the nation's coast defenses. While the mechanism of the mide is a secret, it is known that its effectiveness lies in the fact that the depth of the tide and the strength of the current in a harbor may be entirely disregarded when the mine is planted. An automatic device inside the mine itself can be set for any desired sub- mmergeate, which will be the mine at that place (usually eight feet by the surface) no matter how the tide may rise and fall and in spite of any drag by the current. This type of mine can be planted in a harbor and then left alone on the bottom, controlled by the operator at the mine field switchboard in the fort. To this switchboard every individual mine in the field is connected by a cable. From his post the operator can send the mine on a moment's notice to war position just below the surface. The mine is then gone by a small signal device in the casemate, a gong, which sounds a ringing note for every foot upward the hidden destroyer travels. MOTHER SHOT KISSING SON Revolver is Discharged as She Steals Up Behind Him—Youth Surrendered.

NO NOBEL PEACE PRIZE. Committee Refuses to Make Awards For 1915 and 1916. London—Reuter's Christiania correspondent says the Nobel committee has decided by 28 votes to 11 not to distribute the Nobel peace prize for 1915 and 1916. The Nobel peace prize has not been awarded since 1918, when it was given to Hertzstein. It is now a senator, who is president of the International Peace Bureau at Bernie, Switzerland. The prize for the previous year was awarded to Eilhu Root of New York. STANDARD TIME FOR SALONIKI PROVIDED Saloniki.—If the allies have done nothing else at Saloniki they have at least enabled every one to know the right time. Hitherto one railway worked to Vienna to the stantnople town. Saloniki had its own local time and there was also Turkish time other than the Constantinople variety, which differed from all the others in being based on the course of the moon. There are still three different Sabbaths a week—Friday for Moslems, Saturday for Jews and Sunday for the Christians. Defective Page FAMILY REUNITED. Children Long Separated by the Civil War Meet. SEARCH BEGUN BY BROTHER. Bushwhackers Raided Home, Killed Parents and Drove Children Into Woods—Adopted If Different Homes, Survivors Drifted Apart —Meeting Between Sisters and Brother Pathetic. Clarinda, la.—A tragedy of the civil war which respited in the separation of three children over Missouri family was recalled recently by the reunion of the three children who had been separated during the long period, too young at the time to maintain a correspondence, and it was only after much effort and correspondence that the members of the family were enabled to meet and hold a reunion after so long a separation. Living near Lacoche, Mo., was a family named Deer. Bushwhackers raided their home, killed the parents and drove the children into the woods, where they passed a night in the woods. The children were Mary Deer, eight years old; Addie Deer, six years old, and a brother two years old. Upon the girl of eight years involved the task of keeping the others with her and to vainly try to console them. Speaking of the terrifying incidents of the night, Mary, now Mrs. Mary Rahn of this city, told how the baby boy cried to be taken to his mother. In the morning the children made their way to Lacoche, where they were found early in the exposure and fright and crying bitterly. A man who chanced to run across the woods so filled with pity that he took them in charge, fed them and cared for them for several days until he had succeeded in locating all three in homes, into which they were finally adopted. Thus torn apart, the children did not again hear from each other. Mary spent her entire girlhood as a nurse girl in a family where there were several children, and from them she managed to learn to read and write. She was taken to Illinois, where she married and took with the brother to Crete, Neb. taken with the married and where the boy grew to manhood and where he still resides. Adie married and lost her husband. She was married a second time to a Mr. Downing, owner of a large ranch near Glenwood Springs, Colo. Some time ago the brother began a search for his sisters. It was an apparently hopeless task, but by perseverance, much correspondence and long range inquiry he managed to find them, and all held a reunion at the home of Mrs. Downing in Colorado. Her marriage moved from Illinois to this county. She is now a widow, sixty years of age. The meeting between the sisters and brother was pathetic despite the fact that a separation of over fifty years had obviously tended to break down the feeling of family relationship. WAR AFFECTS WATER TOO. No Soda Ash to Soften City's Drinking Supply. Columbus, O.-Hard water will be the best the filtration plant can furnish consumers the rest of the winter unless something is done to increase the available supply of soda ash, one of the chief chemicals used in the softening process. Superintendent O'Shaughnessy of the Columbia water can no longer be had at any price owing to inability of railroads to furnish adequate transportation facilities; also the Barberton plants, where the city's supply of soda ash is obtained, have been handicapped during the last few weeks because of a shortage of fuel. No soda ash has been used at the filtration plant for several days. Since the war began soda ash has advanced a form of water can be softened to a certain degree by pine, but soda ash must be added to be used the desired softness. WAR ON CATS-SAVES GAME. Good Hunting In New Jersey Since Feline Slaughter Started. Trenton, N. J.-A report of the New Jersey fish and game commission recently issued states that the wholesale extermination of cats in Burlington county during the 1915 epidemic of foot and mouth disease has resulted in sportsmen finding Burlington among the best hunting grounds in the state. Game animals and birds are more plump in the county than for years, and scores of hunters have been safely bagged their legal limit of ten rabbits; also quail, phaeasnus and squirrels. It is held that the chief factor in the increase in game animals and birds as well as song birds in that county was the warfare on cats by both hunters and farmers. Sportsmen found hundreds of prowling homeless cats in the woods and fields preying upon native birds and animals and killed them. Newspaper on Fig Leaves. Santa Cruz, Cal.-Because of the high cost of paper and the failure of subscribers to pay up, Luther McQueen, publisher of the Mountain Echo at Boulder creek, printed an edition of his weekly on fig leaves. The edition consists of five dried leaves pinned together and printed on both sides and contains images, classified and legal advertising and in which McQueen sets forth his reason for "returning to first principles for print paper." Body of William King Described as Left Handed Both Inside and Out. St. Louis—The body of William King, which has been preserved for twenty months, is described by an anatomist as "left handed, both inside and out," according to a statement made public at the City hospital. In May, 1915, King, who was thirty-five years old, applied at the hospital for treatment. He said he was a laborer and had lived most of his life in Wisconsin. He was suffering from typhoid fever. When asked who should be notified in case of his death King said, "Don't worry about that. Just cut me up and examine my body. There's something wrong with me besides the fever." He died a few days later. When surgeons made an examination of the body they found one of the most abnormal cases in the history of surgery. The heart was on the right side, the liver on the left; the appendix was on the left side and the spleen on the stomach was turned around completely; the lung was three lobes; the right lung had but two. The left kidney was larger and lower than the right one. DANCE TO WIRELESS MUSIC MILES AWAY Phonograph at High Bridge, N. Y. Heard All Over House at Morristown, N. J. New York.—What was declared to be the world's first wireless dance was held at 29 Morris avenue, Morristown, N. J., the house of Theodore E. Gaty, vice president of the Fidelity and Casualty Insurance company of this city. His two sons—John P. and Theodore E. Gaty, Jr., the latter home from Cornell for the Christmas holidays—got up a dance and throughout the evening the seven or eight couples who had been invited dance to music that was played on a phonograph in High Bridge, at the northern end of Manhattan, about forty miles away from Morristown. Mr. Gaty and his sons are enthusiastic amateurs in the science of radio telephony and telegraphy. A friend, P. F. Godley of Montclair, who is a radio engineer, made use of the Lee de Forest audition detector and the sound amplifier invented by Dr. Edwin H. Armstrong of Columbia, the inventions which made transcontinental telephony possible, as well as a wireless telephone message to Honolulu. Mr. Godley, who is only twenty-seven years old, adapted the two devices to amateur use and attached them to a phonograph horn in the Gay home. The phonograph that furnished the dance music was played in the High Bridge plant of the De Forest Radio Telephone and Telegraph company, and the musical sound waves were received by an amateur receiver over Mr. Gay's home. When the faint sounds, which, coming from the receiver, could scarcely be detected by the ear, passed through the combined sound amplifiers and then through the megaphone they could be heard all over the house. FROM MISSOURI TO PANAMA Bottle Found After Being Six Months Afloat.

MINNES HISTOR SOCIE MILITARY TRAINING FOR HALF A MILLION BOYS Defense Society Plans Drills In High Schools Throughout Country. New York. With the object of greatly reducing the time required to make competent soldiers out of raw recruits, Defiant Defiant Defiant set in motion a comprehensive plan for organizing the junior and senior classes of every boy's high school in the country into military training units. New York state already has military training of high school students. Every other state in the Union has received the "call to arms." The action was taken by the military defense committee of the society after consulting Major Leonard Wood. Volunteers required to read the constitution, the United States Constitution, and before the mayor of their cities to call them. Then they will receive certificates of enrollment, charters and detailed instructions for military training week by week. A ten mile hike each week and setting up exercise will be required of recruits, who will be compelled to put themselves in first class physical trim. The society and its advisers are particularly anxious that the boys of the country should not be taught anything that they would have to unlearn if at the age of eleven they were called up after being school. For that reason close order military will the manual of arms and such only will be taught where competent instructors are available. SIXTY-FIVE YEARS OLD, HIKES SIXTY-FIVE MILES Samuel S. Cavin, Atlantic City Lawyer, Celebrates Natal Day With Long Walk. Philadelphia — Samuel S. Cavin is an attorney who was sixty-five years old recently, and he personally conducted the following celebration: He walked sixty-five miles. Elapsed time midnight to 3:15 p. m. And did it on an empty stomach. Then he came home. Took a rubdown. Ate a big steak. Smoked a big cigar. And said that he "was off" the walking stunt again until he was seventy years old, when he would walk seventy miles. Mr. Cavin is a ruddy cheeked, agile, athletic man who belies his age. He has been celebrating his birthday in this manner for a number of years, so at midnight he left Atlantic City and began his hike. He came to Kaighn's ferry, which is sixty-one miles from the shore, and thence to his home, a distance of sixty-five miles. Mr. Cavin attributes his ability to make these trips to a regular system of living: "I get up in the morning, take a cold bath and eat a hot breakfast." he said. "Then I keep myself on a regular walk out whenever I get the chance. I should not write birth days after this and confine myself to five year perlods. About the time I am one hundred the Cobbs Creek boulevard may be done and I may take a century run over that. "Oh, I forgot something. I get busy with the dumbbells every morning." LONG WALK FOR JUROR Trains Did Not Serve, So McCrill Footed it For Many Miles. Leavenworth, Kan.-How would you like to take a little jaunt, say twenty-five or thirty miles, at the present time? Sure, a nice little walk. Well, Kirby McCrill so sizes up a trip of that length. Kirby was among those summoned to sit on a jury. There happened to be trains coming to Leavenworth when Kirby Kirby was not there, neither did the high price of shoe leather. So Kirby walked to Kansas City, a distance of about twenty-seven miles. "It was just a nice little stroll," said Kirby. "I take long walks often and there is nothing like it to preserve one's good health. At Kansas City I caught an interurban car and came to Leavenworth. I intend to walk back when I get through with the jury work." Surgeron Replaced Mule's Ear. Flushing, O.-The car of a valuable mule of the Belmont Coal company has been saved.

FILM OF SUBMARINE SINKING Operator on Bridge of Boat Gets Picture of Entire Procedures. Paris—How six members of the crew of the steamer San Bernardo, bound from Philadelphia, saw moving pictures taken on board of a large German submarine just before their ship was sunk by the underwater boat is related to the crew, probably the French supermarine. The German officer when he boarded the vessel noticed a man wearing an overcoat. "Who is this gentleman?" the German asked. "The supercargo, a French citizen, representing the owner," replied the captain of the San Bernardo. "Let him come aboard the submarine with the five engineers," said the German. "I shall keep them as hostages." The six men were kept in conversation with the underwater boat's commander, while bombs were being placed on board the San Bernardo. When the steamer blew up there was a moving picture operator on the bridge of the submarine, who took a picture of the entire proceedings. Dog Saves His Mistress. Norwalk, Ore.—A pet colla dog probably saved Mrs. Philip Loretz from serious injury the other day when an enraged cow owned by Mrs. Charles Antrim, a neighbor, charged straight at Mrs. Loretz, knocked her down and severely as she lay on the ground.

We are not a very strong believer in signs as many people are, that is we don't take much stock in it being a sign of bad luck for a black cat to cross one's path or for a dog to howat at night and such superstitiousrot. But every once in a while we do see what we consider good signs when we learn of the good results of concerted action on the part of coloredmen. Among the most notable incidents recently are the nomination of Louis B. Anderson, Esq., for alderman in Chicago, over four competitors, and more recently the nomination of Dr. Sumner A. Furniss, for Councilman on the Republican ticket in the fourth district of Indianapolis, Ind. He had seven white competitors and he polled more than double the amount of votes his highest competitor received. There were seven Democratic candidates in his district but he polled 8,532 votes while all seven of them only polled 5,524. His seven Republican competitors received a total of 14,547. If Dr. Furniss holds his own on election day his "peace, calling and election is sure." The same is true of Lawyer Anderson, so we say these are hopeful signs. 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 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. and public opinion for many years and it affer us much satisfaction to find that we are in Dr. Crane's class in our bein. It makes very little difference 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 on 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 Senator James K. Vardaman 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, no 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 these 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 Sumner 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-Summer class but lately he has said and done things that have weakened the faith he had inspired. Now he has "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 me Of brotherhood is seve That falls asunder at t He finds his fellow guil Not colored like his ov To enforce the wrong, Dooms and devotes him 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. who in the consci- of his duty dares to world, with ignorant, nt, may condemn, of relatives may be parts of friends grow of duty done shall the applause of the ances of relatives or .—Charles Sumner. 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. 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 colored 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 ARE WE TO GET IN THE WARS 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 The Age joins with the Baltimore Afro-American and other race papers in registering a protest against the establishment of a "Jim Crow" military training camp for colored men as members of the National Association for Africanancement of Colored People. Like Professor Spingar, we look with disfavor on the segregation of colored men and women 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.

A bill in the house of representatives at Washington was recently 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. We note that among those named for commission is Thomas Taggart, former president of the school, his goodly intentions toward the race one may be assured that the effort is worthy of consideration. The Negroes, however, we think, will not be too hurried in seizing what appears an opportunity. They, we think, will be the better thing, opinion as to which is the better thing, opinion as to which comes soldiers as they have been, or 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. There should be no segregation in an army training school. 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 and 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 upon as cooks, but as citizen soldiers, ing 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 we have 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 members of your own race and not of the north who treat you like human 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 American men," is toob near at hand to discuss priices and opinions, and it seems to me that there is only one thing for you to know about the structure, and that is to get the training you need. Of course, however and wherever and whenever this training may be obeyed, is hundred of you do not send applications to 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 monochromatic. Educated colored men, Professor, are assigned. Educated colored men, Professor, are assigned. 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 West Point and Plattsburgh. In the meantime, the nation 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 America and then go out to lay siege to perplex the these Jim-Crow institutions in the face of the free and 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 practice of the post office official that clerks should get different wages from white clerks. In this crucial hour these are mad measures, which will divide and displease the patriotism and the nation's black and white. Concentration camps, 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 war, the American government will eventually 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 when he fights for a square deal one service, both postal and military. HAMPTON AND TUSKEGEE.

(From Amsterdam News.) Edition. Amsterdam, News. **Sixth Amsterdam News:** Six cannot be more accurately congruate with the official discourse encouraging the use of the word "Negro." There is no greater delight enjoyed by the white people of the United States today than the spreading use of this unfamiliar term. Why? They realize that at work at the present to bring about both a physical and mental segregation of the people of color. Its use is on the increase only because speakers and writers, especially Doctors of the People, are repetition, ad nausea, is necessary to retain the good will of the masses. The term "Negro" is not only absurdly unaccurate as apprehended to millions of colored people, but it is also alarmingly accurate as apprehended to a. It has never stood historically or in the present, anywhere in the world for any noble or uplifting. Most high-grade Africans repudiate it. b. In Africa and out of Africa it was known to be the higher types, but to Guineas, Sudanese and Senegam blans only. c. its derivatives, "Negrofm," "Negrofy," and its compounds, Negro-head, Negro-fy, Negro-monkey, are all clearly, in their associations, degrading. a. feminine form, Negress. is justly and necessarily used for your wife and daughter and sweetheart, if you favor the use of the masculine term. e. it has been the word used by the Southern whites for two centuries, when formally speaking or writing in English, and when a woman or woman of the race. For when he speaks of the worthy he invariably says "colored." f. it is not differentiated in the mind and thought of the whites from their virtues and generally used (among themes) terms, "Nigro" and "Nigger." g. as stated by an eminent Japanese diplomat it has an unquestioned influence in cutting us off from the thought, sympathy and co-operation of the millions of colored Africans, 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 Negro in public places; it is an excuse for disfranchisement him; and it is an excuse for lynching him. Only one tenth of one per cent of the colored people descent to Africa, and there is no more right to call all colored people Negroes to to call all white people—Ex-Assistant United States Attorney General Wm. H. Lewis, Boston, Mass. Must Judge A Group by its Best. (From the Christian Register, Boston Journal) No one can be said to know any class of people who has not been in intimate and sympathetic relation with best as well as the worst of the class, and who have not known how to live who live in the South, and think know the colored race, with others who have had no such contact, but who have come into intimate and sympathetic relation with the colored people who know their numbers of that race whom their South friends have never known; and of the two sets of people we should say that the second knew the colored people who have known how they know applations among them who do not know, or, knowing, do not enter into and appreciate; they know capabilities by direct contact with the race which others are oblvious of, and who only respect and sympathy can bring out; they know possibilities to which others by their very acquaintance are blinded; those who know the col- and mass and by observation merely can observe individual possibilities are demonstrated in growing numbers of the elect, and would be courageously canvassed; those who would revise their judgments and then their prejudices. At any rate, they ought to credit to those on whom they charge ignorance of the colored values that come from knowing how to judge, and the equal of any members of the dominant race in the highest abilities and in the GOD GIVE US MEN God give us men!

(Gerald Stanley Lee in Mount Tom). I am a human being. I do not propose to be cooped up or shut in in my loosely bound geographical streaks or spots on a planet. This planet is small enough as it is, when one considers the height and depth—the starry height and the human spirit that wavers and glides on each other's naves, I take my stay by the great bells ringing in their towers, by the souls of their poets overriding the years, by the prayers inventors, by the 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 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, recently did, not "walk out." They recently did not arrangements to be "set aside" to be segregated into a colored general conference, to be presided over by a bishop, being denied the privilege of labors in the labs 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 bishop of bishopric honors to the 350,000 college militants are designed to clear the way for the approaching "love feast." That is verity in the assertion that, in its manifestations, the church is a social organization, with religion as a by-product.

THE HOODOO CLUB Of Pilgrim Baptist Church to Present a Photo Play.

He won his way into the ranks of glory— The Trooper of the Tenth at Carri-zal."
