HOW BRITAIN HOUSES PEOPLE
Problem Being Worked Out in Village Only Five Miles From London.
PLAN FOR 800,000 HOUSES
Colossal Task Involves Expenditure of More Than $100,000,000 Every Year for a Period of More Than Sixty Years.
New York—"It's all jolly well to look to the government to solve your particular housing problem, but at the same time public-spirited men and women, working independently, with the right ideas, can do much toward aliding the government in reducing this problem to a minimum."
That in substance is what Mrs. Henrietta Barnett had in mind when, with others interested in community welfare, she established the Hampstead Garden Suburb, five miles from London.
"Our village now is a most attractive place," said Mrs. Barnett, at the Cosmopolitan club, New York, where she is staying for a few days before returning to England. "Hampstead Garden Suburb now has a population of about 10,000. The ground was broken for it in 1907 and the present position of this pioneer experiment of town extension, in spite of suspension of building more than six years, is most satisfactory."
Many desperate housekeepers in New York no doubt would heartily indorse a similar scheme, says the writer of an article published in the Boston Globe.
That the housing problem in England has been more serious than that in New York is indicated by the statement that England is engaged in the colossal task of building 800,000 homes for her people at the tremendous cost of more than $100,000,000 every year for a period of more than sixty years. The necessity of sheltering homeless people became so acute that the government adopted this plan. In 1927 it will be considered again by the government. If it proves practicable, it may be continued; if not, some improved scheme may be substituted for it. The plan the various municipalities issue bonds to carry out their particular schemes. Houses thus built are rented at the lowest possible rate and any deficiency beyond a certain figure is guaranteed by the national government.
This plan is helping to meet the present great and urgent housing emergency of England.
After long years passed in University settlement work, with her husband, the noted Canon Barnett, vicar of St Jude's Whitechapel, for which they were the inspiration in England, Mrs. Barnett evolved her ideas for a country community in which every family could have its own bath and its own garden.
The part of this village," Mrs. Barnett explained, "was built around an open space of eighty acres. In addition to the woods there are public gardens, playgrounds and sheltered seats which may be enjoyed by all the tenants, whatever rents they pay.
"The village represents a true community spirit and has been the means of promoting a better understanding between various classes by arranging that people with different sizes of income may live on the estate. It is not a charity enterprise. It is self supporting and has made for the happiness and improved health of the families who have taken cottages at Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Health Side Important.
"As a Senior nurse, I make makers and home dwellers, and as the house is the shell of the home, women should have a voice in housing plans. The Queen Anne style in the front with the Mary Ann style at the back," to quote Sir Edwin Lutens, must not continue when it means all the beauty and comfort for the rich and ugliness and discomfort for the domestic worker."
Speaking of the health side of the housing plan known throughout Great Britain as the "model village," Mrs. Barnett told how the district medical officer weighed and measured the village children and found them taller, heavier and broader than those of the same age in the city.
"They most gratifying to me," Mrs. Barnett commented, "because the pale faces of the little children of the Whitechapel district with which my husband and myself were so familiar, keep haunting me and urging me on to do something of this kind.
"I believe that the solution of many of our national differences and difficulties lies in a more neighborly attitude, not separation or isolation. Architects too often study how to get as many people as possible housed in a small space. It is hoped that those concerned with town planning will consider the natural intermixing of all social classes and the communion of the handicapped with the happy."
Governor Pardons His Auto.
Lexington, Ky.-Police took Gov. E. P. Morrow's car to the station because a traffic officer claimed it was improperly parked. "I've come to pardon my car," the governor said, and after a warning, was permitted to drive it away.
INDIANS NOW 336.337
Estimate of Population Is Given Out by Commissioner.
Increase of 31,387 for Last Ten Years
Is Shown—Total Area of Indian
Lands 599,111 Acres.
Green Bay, Wis.—The Indian population of the United States, according to Cato Sells, commissioner of Indian affairs, is 363,337, as against 304,950 ten years ago, showing an increase of 31,387.
The Oneida Indian reservation, near here, has a population of 2,867, Commissioner-Sells' annual-report states. Although no figures for last year are available, he believes this year's total is a substantial increase over that of 1919.
Population of other Indian reservations in this vicinity show: Kashena school, 5,023, including a large number of students from the Oneida reservation school, which was closed last year; Laona agency 364, Winnebugo, 1,251; Menominee, 1,760.
Wisconsin has a total Indian population of 10,319, Commissioner Sells reports.
Marriages last year between Indians and whites total nine in the state, while those between Indians totaled seventy-eight. Of the total number of Indians in Wisconsin, 3,461 are Protestants and 1,935 Catholics.
The total area of Indian lands in the state is shown as 549,111 acres. Kashena reservation is the largest, having 231,680 tuberculosis is the "white plague" among the Indians, but the commissioner details the progress made in fighting it, a series of lessons in sanitation and correct living.

HONOR FOR 'HIGHLAND MARY'
Admirers of Robert Burns, Scotch Post, Remove Body to its New Resting Place.
Greenock, Scotland.—With great solemnity the remains of Mary Campbell, Robert Burns" "Highland Mary," were transferred from the Old West kirk yard here to a new grave in Greenock cemetery.
The removal was necessitated by an extension of a local shipyard.
From the spot where Mary was buried 164 years ago the coffin was brought to the cemetery of representatives of Burns clubs from all over the country to its new resting place, and a large crowd of Burns admirers attended an impressive funeral service.
The monument which Burns admirers erected on Mary's grave in 1842 covers the new tomb.
Human Fly Helps Anchor Shabby Walls
New York.-Aided by a "human fly," workmen assumed the hazardous task of anchoring totering walls of the nine-story Strathmore apartment and store building at Broadway and Fifty-second street, half of which collapsed Wednesday, burying, it is believed, seven workmen in debris.
While the steeple jack in the glare of powerful searchlights scaled the walls and at each tier made fast cables anchored in the center of the structure, a corps of firemen dug in tons of brick and plaster below searching for bodies of victims.
Louisville, Ky.—After passing the army medical examination, Jacob Barnett, aged thirty-five, and his son Hurley, eighteen, have gone to their home to get their affairs in shape. They will become members of the same unit, and are now under orders to report Louisville, Cal., for coast defense service.
THE APPEAL.
ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS. MINN.. SATURDAY. JANUARY 15. 1921
United States Asked to Join in Great Celebration.
Foch at Head of French Committee Arranging for Observance of Death Anniversary.
New York.—American participation in the celebration by France of the hundredth anniversary of the death of Napoleon on May 5 next, was invited here by Prof. William Mulligan Sloane of Princeton, N. J., speaking for the French committee headed by Marshal Foch. A feature of the affair whose objects, it is stated, are "to bind up the wounds of France," will be a great exhibition of Napoleonic relics at Malmaison, France, to which collections will be loaned from all parts of the world.
Professor Sloane, who for 42 years held the chair of history at Princeton, and latterly at Columbia university, said that French statesmen, soldiers and men of law and letters as well as other professions compose the committee which is arranging the centennial.
"Making all allowance for every severe criticism of Napoleon's career," he continued, "it is still true that his work unified France, saved it from partition among its foes and in civil life prepared alike the foundation and structure of the society which in the World war saved France and helped to western civilization.
"It was by the bureau and guidance that the French credit of France was restored, the magistracy and administration took definite promulgated, the Bank of France created, the University of France modeled on that of the state of New York and the council of state organized.
"He made private property safe, opened public charges; great and small, to all classes; founded schools, colleges and secondary schools, built magnificent highways, dug an elaborate system of internal waterways, improved transportation of every sort, and above all, reorganized in his institutions the commanding position of belles-lettres, the fine arts and natural science. The superb inheritance of order, progress and prosperity which he bequeathed made the France of 1914.
"The French committee especially desires American participation by contributions, by the loan of Napoleon from American collections and, above all, the moral support of intelligent interest on this side of the Atlantic."
MAKES CLOCK IN 25 YEARS
Workman of Delaware, O., Evolves Elaborate Hand-Carved Affair From Walnut.
Delaware, O.-After 25 years of tedious labor, C. O. Cregmile has completed his construction of a grandfather's clock here.
The clock, on display in a local store window, is hand carved. It was made out of solid black walnut which formerly constituted part of a pupil in the old William Street Methodist堂. All polishing, carving and fitting was done at odd moments by Mr. Cregmile.
Standing eight feet six inches high, the clock is beautifully carved on its sides and face panels. All cutting is original. No design was followed.
Mr. Cregmile, although offered good money for the unique masterpiece, has offered to sell it for a relatively small sum to the William street church. The clock is built so that it will house cathedral tubular chimes.
Heir So Popular
Loses Job as Janitor
Malden, Mass. — William R. Hanson, who says he is heir to a quarter of a million dollars, lost his job as janitor in a drug store because of the sudden popularity that followed announcement of his inheritance. He said that he had determined to get away from the madding crowd by finding work as stepple jack, but had been forced to compromise by getting a job as rooster's helper. Since Hanson announced that he had received word that he was heir to one-seventh of the estate of James Moore of Chicago, an uncle, the telephone bell in the drug store has jangled much of the day, postmen have delivered bulky mail and callers claiming relationship have left him no time for his broom and shovel.
Didn't Get Much for Winning.
Walton, Ky.—Rivalry over the speed of their machines caused George W. Wayman and Charles Campbell to stake their runabouts in a road race to Fountain square, Chincinnati, a distance of 18 miles. Wayman got the lead and made the trip in 83 minutes. Campbell's car turned turtle several miles out of Cincinnati and was wrecked. The wrecked car was turned over to the victor.
Sovereign Scarce in England.
London—The golden sovereign has almost vanished from circulation in most parts of Great Britain since paper currency has been issued, but in the west of Wales gold is as plentiful as it was before the war.
STORMS BALK ASCENT OF PEAK
STORMS BALK ASCENT OF PEAK
Mountaineers Make Daring Attempt to Climb Giant of the Himalayas.
WILL RENEW ATTACK LATER
British Explorers Get 21,000 Feet Up Mount Kinchinjunga and Are Compiled to Stop By Bad Weather—Encounter Difficulties.
Manchester, England—A Manchester Guardian correspondent at Calcutta remarks that great interest has been aroused by an attempt to climb Mount Kinchinjunga, one of the giants of the Malimayas.
Harold Raeburn, editor of Mountaineering Art, and C. G. Crawford of the Assam civil service, both members of the Alpine club, were known to be conducting preliminary exploration in the hope of finding an easy access to the summit.
More than 10,000 Irish in the vicinity of Kinchinjunga was made, though the rains at the time were heavy and the ever-shifting ice fields in the mountains were likely to come down in terrific avalanches, making all climbing impossible without serious risk to life.
Their explorations led the climbers along the course of the Talung river, which takes its rise in the Talung glacier. Here they crossed streams, the bridges of which had been washed away, and passed impenetrable forests, through which they had to hew their way for several days. Undaunted by the rainy weather, they traveled almost straight north to Pamionigh, across the Gluchu Pass, 16,430 feet, to the Talung glacier, which is almost immediately to the south of Kinchinjunga, and there obtained a glorious view of the mountains.
Encounter Great Difficulties
Encounter Great Difficulties.
The party returned to Darjeeling and made their final preparations, engaging in large quantities of stores. The rains severe that it was not until September 2 that the two explorers were able to get away. Traveling out by the Singha ridge, they attacked Kinchimura on the southwest side and explored the glaciers. Access to the summit by that direction was found difficult, but the party persevered and eventually camped out at a level of 20,000 feet.
Here more difficulties were met and bad weather was experienced. Snow began to fall and the expedition became increasingly hazardous. A further thousand feet was overcome, but at this point the attempt had to be abandoned.
The snow was made by a new snow snow about 18,000 feet high. The weather was at first exceedingly bad, but conditions became better later. There was no rain on lower level, although occasional snow showers were met higher up. Considerable difficulty was experienced when returning, owing to the depth of new snow on the Sikhim side, which were probably due to the bad weather experienced in the latter part of September. Finally the party reached Darjeeling in the middle of October, having been away over a month. Both the explorers were greatly impressed by the peaks, but confident that, given good weather, the summit could be attained.
It is interesting to recall that a similar attempt was made by Douglas W. Freshfield in 1899. Mr. Freshfield was led to undertake the exploration by the fact that owing, as he says, partly to cost and the difficulty of travel in Sikhkim and partly to the obstacle presented by the Nepalese frontier, no European had up to the end of the nineteenth century gone around the mountain. Even Sir Joseph Hooker did not approach near enough to explore the glaciers of the giant. As for official surveys, these, according to Mr. Freshfield, have alternately ignored and caricatured the glaciers.
Mr. Freshfield did not think much of his tour from a climbing point of view.
"It is, of course, impossible," he writes, "to go up and down 75,000 feet without some climbing in the popular sense of the word, but in the technically Alpine sense we had far too little mountainineering for my taste. Rope and ice-ax played but a very subordinate part in our journey."
Toy Train Was for Himself. Louisville, Ky.-He was a middle aged man and had just bought a $55 electric train.
And shall I send it for the little boy, or will you take it with you?" the clerk inquired.
"Little boy!" the man exclaimed.
"That train is for myself. When I was a boy I missed the good things of Christmas time, and now that I am able to afford the things I missed in my childhood I'm going to have them. I'm going to have a lot of fun with them. I will be able to help the neighbors' children to help enjoy it."
Wrecked at Journey's End.
Anchorage, Ky.-Charles D. Yeger and wife, after an auto trip to Detroit and back, were seriously injured when their car was wrecked almost at the gate of their home. They were plucked under the wreckage for several
CAUSES HOG DISEASE
Paralysis Traced to Larvae of Blue Bottle Fly.
Minnesota Scientists Also Hope to Find Origin of Infantile Paralysis.
Minneapolis, Minn.—Minnesota University farm school experts issued a statement that infantile paralysis was traceable to the larvae of the green bottle fly. This theory, which, it is biped, will make it possible for medical authorities not only to prevent the spread of paralysis epidemic among children, but also to provide a cure, has been studied by a group of farm school experts.
The subject has been under consideration at the Minnesota experiment station, in co-operation with certain medical authorities. It became known, as a result of the investigation, that the larvae of the bottle fly was responsible for hog paralysis and limberneck in poultry.
Studies are being made by R. A.丹杜德 and Stanley D. Wilkins of the station, in co-operation with D. C. Beaver and W. A. Billings of the veterinary division of the university, and A. L. Smith of the poultry division.
These experts were considerably enlightened as to the causes and method of control of animal paralysis by certain discoveries made in an attempt to the causes of limberneck in poultry. In experiments a cockeler was fed on the larvae of green bottle flies, which had fed on the head of a hog which had died of paralysis.
The result was that limberneck immediately developed in the cockerel. Next the process was reversed. Paralysis of the hind quarters was produced in guinea pigs by feeding them larvae which had fed on a chicken which showed limberneck symptoms.
The information gained from the experiments have caused the university officials to send out bulletins to Minnesota farmers urging them to protect their live stock and poultry, and possibly human health, by burning or burying deeply all carrion. They cite this as an additional argument for farm and home sanitation.
BRAZILIAN GIFTS FOR KING
Valuable Gems Are Presented to Belgian Royalty by South American Republic.
Rio de Janeiro—Handsome presents were given the king and queen of the Belgians and to Crown Prince Leopold by the President of Brazil, in the name of the government before the royal party's return to Belgium after their visit here.
King Albert was offered a valuable and varied collection of tournallines. Presents to the queen included five Brazilian brilliantists of various colors in a background of Brazilian diorama. The brilliantists were white, rose, gold, turquoise and lettuce. In color, the last two being extremely rare. The queen also received a rare collection of Brazilian butterflies.
To Prince Leopold was given a collection of large photographs and an artistic and valuable ponlard with ivory and gold handle, made in Parahyba state, as well as various private gifts.
Firemen Are Called to Rescue Family Roast
Louisville, KY--J. A. Crawford was resting in his home, 1900 Portland avenue, while members of the family were away. He fell asleep, but awakened. Something was burning. His nostrils told him that. Instantly his feet caught the message and carried him to the fire alarm box on the corner. When the firemen arrived the house was filled with smoke. More was coming from the kitchen, from the oven, where the cause of the trouble was found—a large pork roast. Cold meat was served for dinner at the Crawford home.
100-YEAR WINE IS FOUND
Case Uncarted by Excavating in Ruins of Old Building in Florida.
Port St. Fla, Fla.—A case of choice wine, believed buried over 100 years ago, was excavated by workmen engaged in dismantling the ruins of an old building in Port St. Joseph, near here, which was deserted in 1840, following a virulent yellow fever epidemic.
The wine was buried in what had been the cellar of the house.
Has Crossed Another River. Cincinnati, O.—William O'Ragan, aged sixi-six, gardner at the Ludlow lagoon, who several years ago tried to walk across the Ohio on wooden shoes he had made, is dead here. When he tried his river-walking stunt he succeeded in making half the journey.
Passing of a Landmark. Paducah, Ky.—Slowly changing its course, the Ohio river is threatening Fort Massac, on the Illinois side, and the fort, second oldest in the state, will be washed away unless an 18-foot retainer wall which is being planned can check the undermining.

SMUGGLERS RUN WILD
Traffic Carried on Huge Scale on German Border.
Customs Are in Plots and Government Is Unable to Check Evil.
Berlin—Smuggling over the Dutch and Danish frontiers, which the German government had gone to great effort to suppress, again is flourishing "on a colossal scale," and at some points with the full knowledge and connivance of many government officials, according to reports reaching here.
Smugglers are declared to be outbidding the government for the aid of dishonest officials, and the "veritable army of customs officers on the borders have permitted millions of marks worth of tobacco, cigars, cigarettes, coffee and sugar to cross the border duty free within the last few months."
Flying squadrons of customs office have been organized by the government to catch the smugglers who are said to have so thoroughly systematized their operations that "customs receipts are rapidly falling back to bothing, for custom control is again on paper."
Fifty thousand pounds of coffee are being smuggled over the border daily at one point, a report says, and smugglers everywhere are working with the sympathy and assistance of all dwellers along the frontiers.
Men, women and even children, are said to be engaged in this trade. High prices, low wages of customs officials and the depreciated value of the mark is credited as one of the principal causes for the widespread violation of import and export regulations. The smugglers are described as being so well organized and so confident they carry on their business "by land and wholesale scale, and quite openly."
Count 'em. Forty on each ear. It is one of the big customs of the "Garo Fills" tribe in India for a warrior's widow to wear these unique earrings as a means of showing her sorrow.
GREENLAND IS MOVING WEST
Danish Scientists Figure It Has Traveled 875 Miles in 100,000 Years.
Copenhagen—Greenland is slowly moving in a westerly direction. According to observations made in 1907 by J. P. Koch of the Danish Myllus-Erichson scientific expedition, Greenland was three minutes further west than in 1870, when a German expedition made astronomical observations. In both instances the same northern latitude was found. Therefore, Greenland moved west 1,333 yards in 37 years.
The first observation of the longitude of Greenland was made in 1823, Comparing the findings in 1823 and 1870 one arrives at the conclusion that Greenland "wandered" ten yards westery every year. That tends to show that Greenland and Norway, now about 875 miles apart, once were connected, the separation taking place 50,000 or 100,000 years ago.
Weasel Leaps Into Jaws of 'Gator for Safety
Pascagoula, Miss.—A party of hunters which has just returned here from Bayou Casotte reports that on Saturday the men saw an alligator prepare to attack a weasel, whereupon the weasel, with remarkable alacrity, leaped into the 'gator's extended jaws and slid down into its stomach. The hunters say they were astonished at the actions of the weasel and awaited results. Within fifteen minutes they observed the weasel eating its way through the entrails of the monster. According to the hunters, the fondness for eggs prompted the slender animal to take its chances in the alligator.

FRENZY SEIZES THE COUNTRY
Treasury Officials Deeply Concerned Over Situation—May Make General Appeal to Public to Check Gambling.
Washington, D. C.—Approximately $2,000,000,000 changed hands last year as a result of the gambling mania, it was estimated here on the basis of information reaching government heads through official and unofficial channels.
Treasury officials are deeply concerned over the situation, which indicates, they say, that the United States is still clinging to wasteful and extravagant habits that grew up since the armistice.
The situation has been brought to the attention of Secretary of Treasury Houston. Director William Mather Lewis of the savings division now is considering whether a general appeal to the public through ministers and civic societies would be effective in checking gambling.
Frenzy Seizes Nation.
Lewis has just returned to Washington from a trip through the country in which he gave some attention to a study of the situation.
“Gambling at cards and betting on racing has reached a frenzy never before equaled,” he said. “Thousands appear to be engaged in it in one form or another, either as betting commissioners or bettors.
That money changing ownership through games of chance does not represent economic waste. But seldom are winners put to any useful economic purpose.
"The federal government, of course, is powerless to act to check the mania except through a moral appeal." No Loss, But No Gain.
No LOSS, But No Gain.
Nearest $1,000,000,000 was won at poker and other card games alone this year, it was estimated. Tax celts on sales of playing cards now average more than $3,000,000 a year. This indicates the sale of 40,000,000 packs, which alone cost more than $15,000,000.
At every race meeting that lasts a week several million dollars change hands at the tracks. it is estimated. At the races, we vast aggregate of sums wagered at places distant from the tracks through betting commissioners.
U. S. DOOMS BURROS AS PEST
Animals Charged With Destroying the Beauty of Grand Canyon of the Colorado.
Washington.—The lowly burro, enshrined in western legend as the heroic prospector, has been officially classed as a "veritable pest" by the United States government.
This animal, and its progeny in countless numbers, abandoned by its former owners, according to Stephen T. Mather, director of the national park service, has selected the Grand canyon of the Colorado for its habitat, and the availability of the canyon's scenic beauties in consequence are almost disappearing.
The burro, Mr. Mather says, "destroys the trails, denatures the pastures of grass and other forage so that native wild game, such as antelope, has been forced out. He adds that "the time is not far distant when radical steps will have to be taken to eliminate the burro evil."
SOLUTION FOR FUEL PROBLEM
French Scientist Urges Use of Wind and Water to Replace Coal.
Paris—Wind and water hold the solution of the fuel shortage in France, E. Colardeau told his associates at the Academy of Sciences at its last meeting.
He presented what he considered proof in the results of an installation on his kitchen faucet of a water turbine which drives a dynamo that charges storage batteries.
City pressure on the water, he explained, is sufficient to furnish a household with electric light.
In the country, M. Colardeau would install windmills to pump water to elevated tanks and utilize the fall of the water through a pipe to turn the charging turbine.
New interest has been taken here in this idea of household installations, because the higher costs of fuel and power, it is considered, may make practicable these water turbines.
Serves in Regiment He Commanded.
Camp Sherman, O.—James G. Barney, first sergeant of company L. Tenth infantry, is now a "noncom" in an outfit he once commanded. He was an emergency major in the regiment during the war and commanded the regiment during the absence of the colonel. The captain under whom he was commanded was also a commander.
He has been twenty-four years in the army and could have had a commission but for a physical defect, which was overlooked during the war emergency.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 15, 1921
Under the above heading the Minneapolis Journal recently had the following editorial, which shows that the colored people of this country not only are worthy but that their white brothers are sitting up and taking notice: "Recent years have witnessed some remarkable transformations among nations. But no racial group has shown more remarkable promise or revealed more power of adjustment to modern conditions than the ten million Negroes of this Country. In fifty years illiteracy among them has decreased from 90 to 30 per cent. One-fourth of the ten million own their own farms. Forty thousand have won places in business or the professions.
One hundred banks are owned by colored men. One million eight hundred thousand colored children are in public schools, and five hundred higher institutions of learning minister to the needs of colored youth. During the war American Negroes invested two hundred and twenty-five million dollars in Liberty Bonds. More significant than all, perhaps, is the fact that these Americans have shown the power to produce their leaders from their own ranks. They count orators, painters, authors, sculptors, lawyers, scientists and bankers among their number.
Booker T. Washington believed that the Negro's best interest lay in perfecting himself along industrial lines and in becoming first of all a direct producer. Other leaders like W.E.B. Dubois favor a wider sphere of activity and feel that he should enter into the councils of State and Nation. Whatever line may be followed by this folk, the fact remains that already they have proved themselves to have great capacity for progress."
ENFORCE THE 14TH AND 15TH AMENDMENTS.
It is with very great satisfaction that we notice there seems to be some hope that, at last, the members of Congress have determined to form a plan for representation in that august

body upon the basis of the voters permitted to participate in elections in the several states, rather than upon mere population, in Presidential and Congressional elections.
Congressman George H. Tinkham, of Massachusetts, has introduced a resolution based upon the provisions of the 14th and 15th Amendments to the Constitution and showing that the representation from several states is not in keeping with those provisions. Notably in the Southern states, glaring ignoring of these constitutional amendments has been practiced for many years, giving eleven of these states 126 votes in the electoral college and 104 representatives in Congress on a total vote of all presidential candidates of 1,870,209. The state of New York, alone, cast a total vote of 1,706,354 but has only 43 representatives in Congress and 29 votes in the electoral college.
On account of this flagrant ignoring of the 14th and 15th Amendments we have had the infliction of Wilson and Wilsonism for the past seven years and ten months, and we most sincerely hope that the present Congress will make such a condition impossible for the future.
A NEW SENSATION.
Missouri was treated to a new sensation this week, when Hon. W. M. Moore, the first colored man ever elected to its legislature, was sworn in and took his seat with the other members of the House. He was elected from a district in the fashionable "West End" of St. Louis. It is hoped that he will make good and that other colored men will follow him until a colored legislator will create no sensation whatever.
"NONE SO BLIND AS THOSE WHO
WON'T SEE."
Representative Clark of Florida, speaking before the House census committee, denounced the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People as an organization composed of "Meddling, fussing" persons who "are working on IGNORANT Negroes of the South to keep themselves in good positions." Mr. Clark needs a lot of information about the N. A. A. C. P. which he seems not to have, and his denunciation certainly shows his ignorance and color prejudice—another evidence of ignorance. Mr. Clark is, however, wise enough to see that if the object sought by the N. A. A. C.

MORE SCHOOLS FOR WASHINGTON
Congressman Charles R. Davis of Minnesota is chairman of the subcommittee of the house appropriations committee charged with the preparation of the bill which provides funds for the upkeep of the city of Washington. For the past few weeks Mr. Davis' committee has been holding hearings in the course of which the municipal officials at the national capital have made known their needs for the coming year. There is a very pressing need for more school accommodations in Washington, due to the practical cessation of building during

the war and since. One of the features of the District of Columbia appropriation bill this year will be an unusually generous allotment for the schools, a program which has the hearty endorsement of Representative Davis.
Some members of the Episcopal board of missions favor the raising of a fund of $1,000,000 for the purpose of converting the Jews, "because they are losing faith in Judaism and becoming atheistic.
This move brought a quick retort from many of the rabbis, three of whom we quote:
"Attempts to 'convert' the Jew have never been successful," said Rabbi Joseph Stolz of Isaiah Temple, "and the thronged synagogues refute the charge that the American Jew is straying from his faith."
Rabbi Stolz said that reports that the Episcopal Church might be induced to appropriate large sums for Christianizing the Jew were too ridiculous to discuss.
Rabbi Abraham Hirschberg of Temple Sholom declared that Judaism was stronger than it had ever been and that the American Jew was one of its greatest factors.
In Europe they have had for hundreds of years, a great way of "converting" the Jews by surrounding the ghettos and murdering men, women and children. In Hungary, recently, hundreds of Jews have professed Christianity to save the lives of themselves and families, but all of the certificates of baptism were overprinted in red, "Not good in case of pogroms (massacres)."
The Jews of the United States will not rush to Christianity because they know that American Christians would then segregate them and compel them to ride in jim-crow cars and lynch them just as they have their colored brethren.
COLORED COLONIALS:
Many Colored Men in the American War for Independence.
The employment of colored men became a subject of much importance at an early stage of the American War of Independence. The British naturally regarded slavery as an element of weakness in the condition of the colonies, in which the slaves were numerous, and to gain the colored men and induce them to take up arms against their masters by promising them liberty on this condition.
The situation was looked upon by the public men of the colonies as alarming, and several of them urged the Congress to adopt the policy of emancipation. But while the general opinion of the population was defeated, the exigencies of the colony again and again brought up the practical one of employment for colored men, whether bond or free.
Only Freemen Wanted In Army.
In May, 1775, Hancock and Warren's committee of safety introduced following formal resolution: "Resolution of the opinion of this committee, as the敌军 not between Great Britain and the colonies respects the liberties and privileges of the latter, which the colonies are determined to maintain, that the admission of any person as a soldier into the army now raising, but only such as are freemen, will be inconsistent with the principles that are to be supported in principles on these colonies, and that no slave admitted into this army upon any consideration whatever."
Washington took command of the army around Boston on July 3, 1775. The instructions for the recruiting officers from his headquarters at Cambridge prohibited the enlistment of any "negro." It may also be noticed that they were forbidden to enlist

"any person who is not an American born, unless such person has a wife and family and is a settled person in this country."
Many Colored Men Enrolled.
Notwithstanding all this, the fact remains, according to Bancroft, that "the roll of the army at Cambridge had, from its first formation, borne the names of men of color." Free colored men stood in the ranks by the side of white men. In the beginning of the war they had entered the army, and the colored men, like others, were retained in the service after the troops were adopted by the continent."
A committee on conference, consulting of Dr. Franklin, Benjamin Harrison and Thomas Lynch, met at Cambridge, October 18, 1775, with the deputy governors of Connecticut and Rhode Island and the committee of Massachusetts Bay, to confer with Gen. Washington, and advise a method for renovating the army. On the 23d of October the groes to be excluded from the new enlistment, especially such as are slaves?" All were thought improper by the council of officers. It was agreed that they be rejected altogether.
In general orders, issued November 12, 1755, Washington says: "Neither negroes, boys, or men to the arms, nor old men unfit to endure the fatigues of the campaign are to be enlisted."
Permitted TheirxEnlalment
Washington, however, in the last days of the year, under representations to him that the free colored men who had served in his army were very much dissatisfied at being discarded, and fearing that they might seek employment in the British army, took the responsibility to depart from the resolution respecting them and gave license for their being enlisted. That was any object promised that if there was any object to part of Congress he would discontinue enlisting of colored men, but, on June 15, 1776, Congress determined "that fully in the army at Cambridge may be re-enlisted therein, but no others." The entire aspect of the affair changed when, in 1779 the South began to be invaded. South Carolina, especially, was unable to make any effectual efforts with militia, by reason of the great proportion of citizens necessary to remain at home to prey on their enemies among the colored men and their assertions to the enemy who were assiduous to endeavors to excite both revolt and despair.
The result was that in all the Southern states the legislatures passed resolutions to enlist the colored men, and the colored patriots of the Revolution are as much entitled as their white brethren for the ardor with which they fought the common enemy, whether they were bondmen or freemen. It has never been possible to give an exact statement as to the number of colored men who served in the Revolution, for the reason that they were generally mixed in regiments and not calculated separately.
KILLING HAITIANS.
A Marine Sport, Writer Asserts.
New York—How American marines, largely made up of and officered by Southerners, opened fire with machine guns from airplanes upon defenseless Haitian villages, killing men, women and children in the open market places; how natives were slain for "sport" by a hoodium element among these same Southerners, and how the ancient corvee system of enforced labor was revived and ruthlessly executed, increasing, through retaliation, the banditry in Haiti and Santo Domingo, was told by Harry A. Franck, the noted traveler and authority on the West Indies. Mr. Franck was in January of this year on a tour of the Caribbeanbeans for the Century Magazine. The natives were armed largely with obsolete and useless firearms, some even with sythes, according to Mr. Franck, and it is to hold fact rather than to the boasted marksmanship of the marines that he attributes the deaths of 3,000 blacks and of only twelve whites.
Mr. Franck blames Secretary Daniels and President Wilson for failing to control the situation in the black republic or to take steps to change the prevailing low value placed on the lives of the natives by the forces of occupation.
"I do not know these things of my own knowledge," said Mr. Franck. "But I heard of them from many reliable sources, including sources friendly to the Americans, and I am certain in my own mind that they are true.
"While some killing was necessary, a good deal of it was uncalled for. Or the factors which I found responsible for conditions was that the marines needed there were composed very large and young Southerners, who looked down on the Haitian population, which is nearly 100 per cent black, and held native lives very cheaply. There was also a great dominance of officers from the South
"I found many earnest young Southern officers, who were undoubtedly doing their duty to the best of their ability, but they took a harsh view of their duty and placed too small a value on the lives of black people. Further than that, there was a hoodlum element of young Southerners among the militant men who killed the blacks for sport. Then, the mainly men who did not get into the great war and were anxious to have military feats to their credit."

HAS 9-EGG BREAKFAST
"A Square Meal at Last," Says English Adventurer.
Makes Three Months' Canoe Trip in Far North of Canada and Alaska.
Winnipeg, Man.—Hugh Kindersley, twenty-one years old, son of Sir Robert Kindersley, governor of the Hudson Bay company, has returned from a three months' canoe trip through the Far North of Canada and Alaska.
With Capt. Tom O'Kelly, a veteran of the company's service, as his guide and only companion, he set out from Athabasca Landing in a 19-foot canoe. He traveled by Athabasca river, Athabasca lake, Slave river, Great Slave lake and the Mackenzie river to within 90 miles of the Arctic ocean, visiting the old Hudson bay fur posts on his way. At Fort Good Hope he crossed the Arctic circle and was then in the region of the midnight sun and continuous daylight. As he says, he "saw no stars from early in June until August 7."
Beyond Fort McPherson and Arctic Red river he ascended Rat river, "a narrow torrent of rushing glacier water that drops as much in 60 miles as the Yukon in 2,000," crossed the Rocky mountains and, with supplies completely exhausted, reached Fort Yukon August 13.
"A square meal at last," wrote the young Englishman in his diary, "Never before have I eaten nine eggs for breakfast, not to mention ham, bread, jam, cake, coffee and whapling."
From Fort Yukon he went up the Yukon past Dawson and White Horse, through the old Klondike gold fields and took steamer at Skagway for Vancouver. The two adventurers camped out constantly and the young seion of the house of Kindersley became an expert cook.
"While fighting our way up Rat river," he said, "mosquitoes swarmed about in dense clouds. If I removed my gauntlets, my hands were instantly hidden with the insects. Stumbling through the tundra, I lost my mosquito-bar helmet and soon my face was covered with the blood of crushed mosquitoes. But I enjoyed every minute of it."

Canadian Province to Pay $32,734,000
for Public Utilities in and
Around Toronto.
Toronto, Ont.-A deal, subject only to ratification by the Ontario government, was completed whereby the province will purchase virtually all of the MacKenzie power interests in and around this city for $32,834,000.
Property concerned comprises, in addition to various suburban railways and power plants, the Electric Development company at Niagara Falls, Ont., with its transmission line to Toronto.
The deal marks the close of two years' negotiations between Sir William MacKenzie and Sir Adam Beck. It means that, with the exception of the Dominion Power company at Hamilton, all the larger hydro concerns in the province are publicly owned.

He was passing a department store when he saw the beautiful figure of a girl in one of the windows, casting an alluring smile in his direction. He beckoned to her to come out and join him, but she did not move and kept right on smiling. Louis decided to pursue her. He smashed the window and grabbed the figure around the walt. He was about to kiss the wax lips with the frozen smile when a policeman grabbed him.
EINDS $1,100 ON TRASH PILE
Stolen War Savings Stamps Were Hidden in Old Valise in Guthrie, Okla.
Guthrie, Okla.-Slx weeks ago W. F. Davis of this city found an old valise under a house he was moving and threw it on a trash pile in the yard. It laid there until he started to haul the trash away and on close examination found $1,100 in War. Savings stamps under a false bottom. Inquiry developed the fact that the valise was once stolen from in front of a local hotel last spring and belonged to David Secko, a traveling man from Enid. The stamps were all registered in his name.

THE TROTTER MEETINGS
In the Twin Cities Quite Well Attend ed and Successful.
The coming to the Twin Cities of Mr. William Munroe Trotter, editor of The Guardian, of Boston, Mass., was quite a pleasing episode to all the people who had the privilege of hearing that great champion of equal rights.
He appeared at Pilgrim Baptist Church last Wednesday night before an audience that comfortably filled the church and listened with bated breath while he told how he outwitted President Woodrow Wilson and the State Department at Washington and got over to France in spite of the obstacles, engendered by color prejudice, to prevent the 14,000,000 colored citizens of this country from having an accredited delegate over there.
Editor J. Q. Adams presided.
The choir and audience sang with spirit the Battle Hymn of the Republic.
Rev T. J. Carr, pastor of, Memorial Baptist church invoked Divine blessings.
Mr. Louis F. Baldwin, manager for Mr. Trotter, made some explanatory remarks.
Then St. Paul's interpid chief executive, Mayor L. C. Hodgson, who had kindly and graciously accepted the invitation to introduce the speaker of the evening, did so in his usual characteristic and uncompromising manner that left no doubts in the minds of his hearers that his heart is in the right place. Mr. Trotter proceeded in detail to tell just how he accomplished his, apparently, impossible undertaking by securing the position of scullion on a little ship bound for France. It was very interesting story as told by him in his inimitable way. When the speaker had finished telling how at least tred French soil, there was an interpid Pilgrim, which Rev. B. H. Hodge, pastor of Pilgrim and Manager Baldwin made pleas for financial aid to enable Mr. Trotter to continue in carrying out the plans to which he has devoted his all. The result was a collection of $66.
The audience then listened to a splendid rendition by the choir of the anthem, "Ye Shall Go Out With Joy," and a charming solo, "Blue Bird" by Miss Charlotte Gillard.
Mr. Trotter again proceeded with his story and told of what he accomplished at the Peace Conference. This was even more interesting than the story of how he got there and was highly enjoyed by all.
Mr. Trotter also made a plea for the National Equal Rights League, of which he is corresponding secretary, and appointed as a committee to establish a branch in St. Paul, consisting of Editor J. Q. Adams, Rev. B. H. Hodge, George W. James, Dr. Valdo Turner, Mesdames W. R. Hardy and W. T. Francis.
At the close of the meeting the audience was given an opportunity to meet Mr. Trotter and a number became subscribers for The Guardian.
Wednesday evening Mr. Trotter appeared at St. Peter A. M. E. church, Minneapolis, and was greeted by an audience that filled that church.
The meeting was conducted by Rev. J. J. Evans, the pastor.
After singing by the congregation, Rev. T. B. Stovall, presiding elder, offered prayer. Mr. Baldwin made a few remarks. Atty. Wm. R. Morris then in fitting terms introduced Mr. Trotter, who with very few variations told the story of the night before and was listened to with the same keen interest, as must always be the case where it is told by its author. The plea for financial aid was made by Rev. J. J. Eavens, augmented by Mr. Charles Sumner Smith and resulted in a collection of $54. Mr. Trotter appointed as a committee to organize a branch of the National Equal Rights League: Mr. Chas. S. Smith, Revs. J. J. Evans and T. B. Stovall and Atty W. R. Morris. Mr Trotter held an impromptu reception at the close of the meeting and incidentally received a number of subscriptions for The Guardian. Nothing but words of praise are heard from those who were present at the Trotter meetings in the Twin Cities.
OPENING OF GATEWAY ATHLETIC CLUB
At Union Hall, St. Paul, Last Tuesday
Evening Quite a Success.
The opening of the Gateway Athletic Club Tuesday evening, Jan. 11th, at Union Hall, was well attended by the fight fans who have been longing for good colored bouts.
In the four-round curtain raiser, Clarence Duke knocked out Art White in the third session.
In the first round of what was to have been a four-round preliminary between two white lightweights, Barney Huirrain knocked out Charlie Culbertson.
The semi would have been a hummer between Aegean Black of Nashville, Tenn., and Victor Daniels of St. Paul had not been for a slip in a coat. He was knocked out of a box, or shoulder, during one of his famous wind-ups for that deadly wail, making it necessary to stop the bout in the third round of what was to have been a six-round go.
The main bout, which was also expected to have been a corker, between Dixie Kid of Atlanta Ga., and Lawrence Tucker of St. Paul, was soon brought to a close when the Kid got in the way of Tucker's heavy right hand and he also took the chance to find a soft spot on the canvass in the first round of what was to have been a six-round affair. The man who witnessed the show were well pleased with the first efforts of the matchmaker, Johnny Walton, to please them. The club plans to hold a show every two weeks. Watch for further announcements.

LESSONS FROM THE BIRDS.
The crows are supposed to be wise old guys.
"Said one old crow unto his mate. 'What shall we do for hash to eat?' We naturally feel that this old fellow had an eye to business and realized the responsibilities of family support that rested upon him and was going to make good.
"A crow sat on a railroad track, Picking his teeth with a carpet tack."
We naturally think that he was a lazy, shiffless, improvident guy, and that he never amounted to anything. probably he never had a savings bank account when he died, very likely his friends had to take up a collection to bury him.
Some crows are not very wise after all.
Some of the birds are the busiest people in town. Mr. and Mrs. Bird go South for the winter and come back in the spring and find their last year's house demolished, no home to go to. They do not sit down in idleness and improvidence and mourn over their loss. On the contrary they keep smiling and sing their favorite songs and work like Trojans, and a new house is built. A growing family is provided for; and when the little family comes, Mrs. Bird stays at her home and takes care of them, and Mr. Bird gets out and hunts for food.

RETRIBUTION,
There was a man whose fame was
won,
By blowing in an empty gun,
No sooner in the gun he blew,
‘Than off this mortal sphere he flew,
And met the girl in yonder scene,
Who lit the fire with kerosene.
And there he saw in vengeance dire,
‘The one who called a man a Har.
He-was huddling close as if for lite,
Beside the man who whipped his wife.
‘Take warning each, take warning all,
For retribution sure will fall
‘On him who does a careless deed,
Or wrongs another without heed.
