RICH FORSAKE FIFTH AVENUE
Tradesmen Steadily Break Exclusiveness of Noted Residence District of New York.
MRS. VANDERBILT LEADS WAY
New Exclusive District Expected to Spring Up in Section Where Near-Slums Existed Before—Long Fight for District.
New York—Stealthy but steady advances by tradesmen, covering a period of more than twenty years, have virtually broken the residential exclusiveness of Fifth avenue, known the world over as the home precinct of the Vanderbilt, Carnegies, Harrimans, Plants, Fricks and other wealthy families.
One by one, mansions which housed international personages and gave to Fifth avenue much of its glitter and fame are surrendering to commercial enterprise, and the rich are seeking homes in new "exclusive" parts of the city. Real estate men, who have watched with interest this aggression of trade, say that another decade will have wiped out the last bit of residential exclusiveness in the avenue.
Mrs. Vanderbilt Moves.
The change in Fifth avenue was reflected in the recent purchase of property bordering the East river at Fifty-eighth street by Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, Sr., where she intends to build a home in a section known as Sutton square. This bit of property is directly across from Blackwell's island, where a city prison is located, and is almost the Manhattan approach to the Queensborough airport to the Queensborough. Vanderbilt's migration to the East river will mean a new exclusive district in a part of the city where near-slums existed before.
Mrs. Vanderbilt, who a few years back helped to make Fifth avenue history with her brilliant social activities, said when she purchased the East river property that Fifth avenue had "host its residential atmosphere, which was its most valuable charm." Traffic and crowds, resulting from the trade invasion, she said, had taken away its exclusiveness.
Wage Fight for District.
The fight to "save" Fifth avenue has been waged since the late nineties, when real estate men began to get options on property near the magnificent mansions. Members of the Vanderbilt family and others owning homes there expended millions of dollars in buying up property in an effort to stem the tide.
Much of this property was purchased at exorbitant figures, and after a lapse of years has fallen back for business use. Hotels, banking houses, jewelry stores, millinery and fine tailoring establishments have gradually crept onto the thoroughfare.
The home which M. Vanderbilt is forsaking at Fifth avenue and Fifty-second street will become the site of a trust company. Its sale was made possible as the result of the death of Mr. Vanderbilt In Paris, when the house, owned by his estate, was sold to the highest bidder. The first actual break in the Vanderbilt holdings came when Gen. Cornelius Vanderbilt leased his home at Fifth avenue and Fifty-fourth street to a shoe firm.
The residence of the late Henry C. Frick, steel magnate, will eventually go to the city for use as a museum.
TERROR DREAM KILLS VOICE
Family Near Death, Farmer Vilson
Fatal Gate, State State and
Turia, Turna, White
Onawa, Iowa.—A total loss of speech followed a dream in which H. M. Jessen, a farmer, dreamed that he saw his wife and children managed under an overturned automobile.
Jessen and his family had planned an automobile trip to Sioux City. Detained by farm chores, he followed the car by train and arrived in Sioux City before his family did. Sitting in the lobby of a hotel, he dreamed of the fatal accident.
Awakening, he frantically waved his arms and opened and closed his mouth, but could not speak. When his family arrived they said their car had stalled on a North Western track, and a train came within a few inches of the car before it stopped, narrowly averting a fatal crash.
Jessen appears to have been stricken permanently deaf, and his hair has turned white.
Miners Earn $5,000 a Year.
Cardiff, Wales.—Some coal miners of South Wales are being paid as high as $5,000 a year, while wages amounting to $3,500 and $4,000 are fairly common. Despite this, the government is having difficulty in collecting income taxes from the miners. Last year nearly 15,000 of them were summoned for non-payment, but only 12 of this number were committed to prison.
Boy Given Life Sentence.
Wheeling, W. Va.-Life imprisonment was the sentence passed upon skteen-year-old Samuel Blevers, formerly of Little Rock, Ark., in court here, after the boy had pleaded guilty to a charge of murder. The lad was accused of having killed C. F. Grand-staff, a car inspector, in a shack near Wheeling last October.
TAYLOR'S HOUN' DAWG
Governor of Tennessee Will Keep
Famous Animal at Home.
Would Veto Proposition for Appropriation to Build Home for "Old Limber" on Mansion Grounds.
Nashville—Old Limber the only dog whose yelp was ever heard in a political campaign in Tennessee, has not been tempted from his familiar hants in the Happy valley vicinity by the bright lights of the capital, at which his master, Gov. Alf Taylor, is presiding.
Reports that the Democratic legislature contemplated making an appropriation on the mansion grounds for a house for Old Limber, have led his master to announce that he will promptly veto such a proposition, and keep Old Limber at home.
Old Limber furnished much material for Governor Taylor's speeches during his campaign. The governor always gave a graphic recital of Old Limber's prowess as a fox hunter.
"Old Limber is being well cared for in a good home in east Tennessee and gets three square meals a day," is the last word from the governor on the subject. "He would not be contented in the city. He wants to be where he can occasionally survey the lofty mountains over whose heights he has many times chased the fox with the rest of the pack making music at his heels. Old Limber is nine years old, and is too old to run now, but he remembers and often dreams of his past achievements."
"If you have never heard Old Limber in full cry," the governor continues, growing more eloquent, "you have never heard music. He is gifted in every note, and in a chase, at one time or another, he will let you have all of them. You could distinguish Old Limber's voice from the rest of the pack eight miles away. Honest! "That dog never lied to me in his life. He has never been known to yelp in a cold trail. Whenever the voice Old Limber is heard, everybody knows that there is a fox around." The governor's east Tennessee home place boasts not only "Old Limber," the most famous hound dog in Tennessee, but also a son, who has taken his place as pack leader, and a grandson as well.
LIZARDS MAKE AUTOS SKID
Plague Afflicting Towns and Villages
Which Border on Prairie Lakes
of Canada.
Winnipipe, Man.—A plague of lizards is afflicting the towns and villages which border on the prairie lakes and sluices of Canada. At Ninette 2,000 lizards were shoved out of the basement window shaft at the government sanatorium. In the doctor's quarters 60 were counted. Motorcar drivers have to keep skid chains on their cars, as the roads are made slippery by a surface of living lizards. Many of the people keep indoors rather than venture out because of the disagreeable sensation of crunching a lizard underfoot. The lizard is more treacherous than banana peel.
The little reptiles, which vary from four inches to eighteen inches in length, by night only, and are now on their annual trek from the lakes to find suitable crevices in which to hibernate.
Father Sells Girl for 10 Cents a Pound, She Says
Lexington, Ky.-A report from Stanford, Lincoln county, says that George Isman, a farmer of the mountain section, has been placed in jail at Stanford on a charge made by his daughter, Annie, eighteen, that her father had attempted to shoot her. The girl charges her father sold her at 10 cents a pound, a total of $15, to Joseph Zubra. When he came to the home some weeks later to claim his purchase, the father was greatly displeased at the girl's refusal to carry out the terms of the sale and tried to shoot her. Isman and his family are highly respected in their rural community, it is said. The girl is pretty and well educated.
NEW WARSHIP IN JAP FLEET
"Nagato?" Takes Place Among Largest Fighting Vessels Aftow in the World Today.
Tokyo—Japan's latest battleship, Nagato, has a dead-weight tonnage of 33,800 and can develop a speed of 23 knots per hour.
Its length is 660 feet. The armament of the new addition to the Japanese fleet includes eight 15-inch guns and eight 6-inch guns. It is fitted with four turbine engines. The Nagato takes a place among the largest battleships afford today, its 33,800 tons comparing with the British Hood, 41,000 tons, and the American Tennessee, 32,000 tons.
Two Insane Women Form Death Pact. Middletown, N. Y.-Coffee in which roach powder, brushed up from the floor, had been placed, was drank with fatal results by Charlotte Wheeler, thirty-seven years old, and Martha Hoola, forty-five, inmates of the state insane asylum in fulfillment of a suicide pact.
THE APPEAL.
Records Show a Total of 3,136,550 Mileage—Many Minor Accidents and Forced Landings.
New York.—A total of 115,143 passengers flew 3,136,550 miles in commercial airplanes during the last twelve months without the loss of a single life, the Manufacturers Aircraft association announced here. These figures are based on the performance of 425 planes, and it is believed that the number of passengers and the mileage would be doubled if the figures of the 1,000 commercial airplanes operating in this country were obtainable.
“In the absence of any federal system of registration, air laws and government methods for tabulating the ownership and performance of aircraft, it has been found difficult to trace the total number,” the association stated.
“The totals are based on questionnaires distributed by the association, but, due to the titerant nature of much of the flying, it has been difficult to trace and record more than of these. This one half, by eighty-seven companies, or individuals, are per cent located in all parts of the United States.
“Much of the mileage was made on short flights of ten to fifteen miles, for which an average fee of $12.50 was charged. An increasing demand for aerial transportation between the cities has been noted, the average charge for this service being 65 cents a mile. On practically all intercity flights baggage or freight was carried, the quantity limited only by the capacity of the craft. This business aggregated 41,390 pounds.
"There were accidents and forced landings, but according to the signed reports from the eighty-seven companies, in the 3,136,550 miles flown, not a single life was lost. There were 222 forced landings and thirty-eight accidents. There have been fatal incidents in other instances, but they occurred in the course of stunt or exhibition performances or under circumstances indicating that undue risk had been taken."
FALLS 130 FEET AND LIVES
Mar Drops Into Six Feet of Water; Breaks Nothing but High Diving Record.
San Francisco—Instead of being center of funeral services, John Warren, timekeeper at the Hatch Hetchy dam building site, is trying to learn if he holds a new diving record. He did a drop of 130 feet into only six feet of water and broke nothing other than the record, if that.
There is a bucket swung on a fall that carries out of the Hatch Hetchy dam pit to the cliff side, and in which it has been the practice of workmen to make the trip down from cliff to pit, as the empty is returning, John was making this ride.
The bucket got tangled in a guy wire and, of course, tilted. Before it could clear and right itself, John was spilled and sliding down an air current.
He hit the water either head first or feet first. No one knows, John least of all. When the mourners gathered to pick up the remains John blinked, shook his head and told the boys to get back to work or he'd mark them up for time lost.
RAT IN HOUSE TO COST $20
British Law Imposes This Fine for First Offence; After That $77.70.
London.—Anybody discovered harboring a rat or a mouse in his house is liable to a penalty of 55 $19.425 at current exchange] under a law recently enacted by parliament. If the "offense" is continued he may be fined £20 $77.70.
Levt. Alfred E. Moore astonished a London audience by making these statements in a lecture on "Rats," which he delivered the other day. The reason why so few prosecutions had yet taken place under the "rat act," as it was termed, was because the board of agriculture was waiting until the public became more familiar with it.
Father Eloped Same Day Two Daughters Ran Away
A triple elopement involving three members of one household, none of whom knew of the other's intentions, was disclosed with the announcement that William M. Chase of Atlantic City, N. J., retired New York city manufacturer, and his daughters, Edith and Evelyn, had married their respective mates within 24 hours. Each of the three was surprised to find that the habit had spread throughout the family.
San Antonio, Tex.—Too much hooch!" said Judge Buckle as he levied a $0 fine on George Hardy for having stolen a forty-two-year-old key from a carnival show and then disturbing residents the show grounds by ringing their door bells and trying to sell the monkey.
POVERTY SPURS GENIUS OF POOR
POVERTY SPURS GENIUS OF POOR
Viennese Invent New Jobs for Earning Living When Old Methods Fail.
GENTEEL DANGERS FOR HIRE
Rich Man's Son and Wife' Dance in Public for Pail-Sitters of Refuse
Vienna.—The Viennese of the poorer classes have always been noted for inventing queer jobs to get a living.
The "carriage-door-opener" waited for the close of the theater performances to open and shut carriage-doors for those that drove away, who willingly gave a tip for this voluntary service.
The "waterman" at canastbs washed the spokes of the wheels and the hoofs of the horses when the cab came back from a drive, and this useful work was paid for by the fare, not by the coachman, who was too proud to do it.
Aid for the Lottery Shy.
Outside the government office an old woman would offer to play the numbers or even to advise what numbers to play if any person lingering near looked too shy to enter the shop.
These and a great many other jobs of the same kind no longer exist, since Vienna has been struck down by misfortune and her citizens have no money for anything but the bare necessities of life.
On the outskirts of the city, where big factories are surmounted by high chinneys, there is still much building ground waiting for future enterprise. Here enormous mounds of refuge have accumulated, consisting chiefly of ashes and dross. Some poor woman who can not bear the sight of her children shivering around the cold stone, may have been the first to visit the refuse heaps with a hook and basket in search of bits of unconsumed coal. Her example was soon followed, and in the course of bitter winters the number of people grabbing for coke increased to a small army.
The next to appear on the stage of this new profession was the capitalist, who took over the product of the coke-grabbers' efforts and distributed it to channels of underhand traffic. Some of these have already become millionaires in course, Austrian crown millionaires.
A very short time ago students of the highest class in the best grammar school of Vienna (the Schottengymnasium) were caught in the act of selling an enormous quantity of firewood (which did not exist) to a syndicate of bankers. The students had formed a stock company and were buying and selling on speculation to the amount of millions.
Gentle Dancers for Hire.
In one of the most popular night restaurants an elegant couple appears every evening at the same hour and is welcome with usristifically by the owner and his regular guests. These two open the door with a fox trot around the room. They are also considered the most faithful guests of the place. Only a small number are in the secret of their real character. The woman is his wife, whom he married against the will of a purse-proud father. The 10,000 crowns a month paid by the father to the prodigal are not sufficient to keep this lively pair in clothing and food, so they resolved to earn their bread. But the only thing in the world that they could do well was to fox trot. The exquisite way in which they danced together in their courting days made them generally admired. Now the owner of the night restaurant pays them the crowns a month, treats them with the greatest respect as the most honored of the place and gives them an excellent champagne supper every night. Why should learn Greek and Latin, mathematics and history when fox trotting promises so much more brilliant a career?
Business ethics and morals certainly have gone astray, but only a Pharisee could blame this people on that account.
CUTS FUSE OF BURNING BOMB
Plotters Fire on Watchman in Brooklyn Building Who Prevents Explosion.
New York—A sputtering fuse, attached to a large square bomb in the basement of a house in process of reconstruction in Brooklyn, was cut just in the nick of time by the night watchman, Tony Franko.
The fuse was severed two inches from the bomb. Franko was so badly burned while hacking at the fuse with a pocket knife that he had to be taken to a hospital. His condition is serious.
He told physicians that as he went into the cellar he saw two men, one of whom had just lighted a match. They ran away after firing shots at him.
Dentist Sent Airplane After Patient
Little Sioux, In—Insisting that William Peterson, farmer, should have dental work done immediately, a dentist of Omaha, Neb., sent an airplane after him to save time for the buyer farmer.
One Way Philadelphia People
Solve House Problem.
Tenant Population Are in Desperate Straits Owing to the High Rents.
Philadelphia.—A campaign for building homes is Philadelphia's answer to the question of how to keep rents down to a reasonable basis. The tenant population is in desperate straits, for rents have been going higher and no end seems to be in sight. The scramble for homes in the suburbs is so acute that when one woman moved the furniture out of her home the other goes to rent it from her within a few hours.
To stop the profiteering in rents and homes, several organizations are attempting to unite on a program of house building to continue for at least six months, or until the shortage has been relieved. These organizations include associations of tenants, trade unions, representatives of the building trades and mortgaging companies. They have been asked to undertake this work by the department of public welfare.
Meanwhile, camping ground accessible by street cars is in great demand. Tent manufacturers say more orders have been placed for rents this month than ever before in Philadelphia's history.
There is an unprecedented amount of building of cheap cottages and bungalows within a radius of 30 miles of Philadelphia to accommodate the rush of tenants that is expected when mild weather comes. Those rented in one community cost about $600 each and are eagerly rented at $350 for the season.
Old canal-boats lying along the Schuylkill river are being fitted out as dwellings, and families are glad to rent them as temporary homes.
FARMERS SPURN GRAND PIANO
Instrument Sells for $2.50 as New Yorkers Pay $150 for Blind Horse.
Riverhead, L. I.—The eastern Long Island farmer seems to be a critical fellow.
Just because he cannot use a piano to raise potatoes—there is no sort of affiliation, apparently, between music and potato growing—the farmer refuses to pay as much for the plano as he will for a blind horse.
Frank J. Corwin, the auctioneer, recently astonished the countryside when he got the farmers tumbling all over themselves to bid in a blind horse at $150 and loose hay for the sensitual price of $75 on a ton. He sort of reasoned that if a blind horse was worth that much a grand piano that could make jazz music without much effort ought to bring around $500.
But the farmers fooled him this time. In spite of all his coaxing, in spite of all his claims that Paderewski would be glad to have this instrument, it was knocked down for $250.
TRIES "MOVIE" STUNT; DIES
New York Lad, Aged Fiftie, Strangles
Himself to this day "The Third De-
gree" Fashion.
New York.-The death of fifteen-year-old Solomon Bernstein is attributed by his two younger brothers, Samuel, thirteen, and Isador, ten, to what he learned of criminal methods from moving picture plays.
Solomon was found strangled to death on the cellar floor of his home. Around his neck was a small rope, tied in a noose. The other end was swung over a rafter. Tied to the end over a rafter were two from weights. On the floor beside the body was a butter tub, kicked to pieces, evidently in his efforts to avoid a fatal end to the rope, the supposed injury degree.* According to the younger body the rope and weights were to be applied to Isador, whom Solomon had accused of stealing a fountain pen cap.
AGREE ON REMOVING DEAD
French to Permit Dishmentment of U. 8. Men in the Fighting Zones September 15.
Washington.—Removal of the American dead from within the fighting zones in France for transportation to the United States will begin after September 15 under an agreement between the American and French government. Bodies of men buried outside these zones now are being moved to this country.
The war department, in announcing the agreement, said the terms of the understanding limited the return of bodies of those whose removal to America had been specifically requested by the next of kin.
In transporting the bodies to French ports the American government has agreed to use not exceeding a maximum of 100 standard box cars at a time.
No More Fixin' for Him.
Covington, Ky.-Hugh Jones says he is done fixing something for somebody without knowing what he's got to fix, because, as he says, "I got myself in a fix fixin' things to be fixed." A $25 fine fixed it with the court, when Jones was charged with having connected a copper coil to a still. Revenue agents came upon Jones while he was at work.

PARIS HOUSE CRISIS
Shortage of Homes Having Curious Effect on Divorce.
No Place to Go for Couples Separated,
So They Just Kiss and Make Up
—Not a Flat, Few Hovels.
Paris—The great difficulty of finding lodgings in Paris has been the cause of many unusual incidents recently.
Divorced persons seeking separate apartments are having such difficulty in finding them that in one case at least they composed their temperamental differences in order to keep their old apartment.
A painter and his wife who had been divorced by mutual agreement were both looking for apartments. Frequently their mother would action the search for quarters. The first time they met they bowed gravelly but politely. Their mutual smile gradually broadened as the hunt for flats narrowed down to a few hovels in the slum section.
"Let's kiss and walk back to our flat," the wife finally said, and they did.
President Millerand, who recently took possession of the Elysees palace, received 41 applications for his apartment in the Avenue de Villars.
Henry Landru, who has been in La Sante prison for the last 20 months awaiting trial on charges growing out of the disappearance of 11 women, recently was dispossessed from the flat and occupied on the Boulevard Rochechouart of Paris. Requests came from every quarter in Paris, some even from aristocratic Auteuil, asking that the flat be reserved.
A vagrant just finishing 30 days in La Sante prison told his cellmate under sentence of five years for swindling that he dreaded to return into cold, dreary Paris. He was homeless; prospects of spending the winter nights under Paris bridges did not appeal to him. The prisoners exchanged clothing and cards of identity, and when the warden called for the vagrant to send him out into the cold world the swindler responded. The fraud was discovered only when the swindler's lawyer called at the jail.
BLIND IN ETERNAL TRIANGLE
Husband, Wife and Alleged Affinity, Sightless, All—Men in Battle Royal.
Atlanta, Ga.—That love is blind has just been proved in police court here when a blind man, his blind wife, and her alleged affinity, blind also, were arraigned for trial following a battle royal between the two men, after the husband had come home unexpectedly. Martin Strone, the husband, told the recorder that while pedaling religious tracts in the streets a friend had warned him that a rival was paying court to his wife and that he had better go home. On his arrival there he said he found Sam Stewart enchanting a chat with the wife. Then the fight started. Most of the furniture in the room was wrecked, but the combatants suffered less injury, due to their inability to get at each other properly.
"One day in a dark cell in the police station for Stewart," said the judge.
TEETH ARE WORTH $150 EACH
Jury Fixes Value in Awarding Damages to Heirs Who Lost This
Atlantic City—One hundred and fifty dollars per tooth was the value placed on the cuspides, bicuspides and molars of Abram Froshin of Philadelphia in Atlantic circuit court following a trial of his suit against Michael Dailey, a jitney owner of this city.
The total loss of Froshin was 50 teeth, and the verdict was $4,500.
Froshin and his wife were passengers in a jitney when the machine crashed into a rope stretched across South Carolina avenue. The rope struck Froshin in the mouth and took all but the last two of his molars out. Parts of the gums were also destroyed, and experts testified that there is a possibility that Froshin will have to live on liquid foods the remainder of his life.
3-Legged Wolf "Bandit"
To Be Used as Decoy
Denver. "Big Leffy," the three-legged leader of a wolf pack in the Crested Butte section of Colorado and whose cunning is blamed by stockmen for the loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars of live stock, is again in the hands of federal hunters. "Big Leffy" escaped from a steel trap eight years ago and, as leader of seven other wolves, has left a trail of partly eaten carcasses wherever he roamed since. The big wolf will not be killed, but instead will be used as a decoy in an effort to trap his followers.

"OCEAN OF AIR NEEDS WATCHING
Navigation Lanes May Differ From Day to Day, Says Government Meteorologist.
DATA MUST BE GATHERED
Meteorologists Should Decide, After Study of Air Conditions, What Route and Altitude a Plane Should Take.
Washington, D. C.—The "ocean of air" which followers of aviation believe some day will be filled with great air lines, plying their way on regular schedules, must be studied from a meteorological standpoint and the whims and fancies of the element must be reduced to easily understood data before the dream of world-wide commercial aviation can become a reality, according to C. LeRoy Mesinger, government meteorologist here.
Mr. Mesinger in a paper discussing the effect of air conditions on commercial aviation says that meteorology is the mainstay of aviation, regardless of the confidence a plot may have in his motor and in his plane.
The "ocean of air" he says, constantly is changing and does not contain standoff currents, such as the Gulf stream and the Japan current, which are found in oceans of water.
Must Gather Data.
Because of the constantly changing condition of the aerial routes through which the air liners of the future would travel Mr. Meislinger declares before big commercial aviation companies can operate on a large scale, great masses of data on air conditions at all times of the year, in all places and all circumstances must be gathered. He suggests placing consulting meteorologists on the staffs of all aviation companies to study the air as it affects aviation and to decide daily what attitude and what route a plane should take from one city to another. Air conditions are so changeable, Mr. Meislinger says, that a plane traveling between the same two points might have to take a different route almost every day in order to make a trip with the lowest danger. Also, a plane from New York, Chicago might find a certain route the best, while one traveling from Chicago to New York on the same day might find an entirely different route more favorable.
Things to Consider
Some of the things which airplane dispatchers will have to consider, he says, are the speed and direction of the wind in the area to be traversed, the frequency of low clouds and fog, the frequency and intensity of thunderstorms, the vertical temperature distribution, the normal values of precipitation at flying fields and the effect of atmospheric pressure on aerial instruments, particularly the altimeter. The changing conditions in the air make it impossible to gather the necessary information in a single pathfinding flight over an area, he continues, but by gathering data in numerous flights at all times of the year and in all circumstances a system of averages could be devised which would aid greatly in dispatching planes.
GERMANS PLAN SKYSCRAPERS
Propose to Break Housing Shortage by Rivaling Tallest Buildings in New York.
Berlin.—Agitation for construction of "skyscrapers" has started in virtually every city in Germany, where the housing problem has taxed the ingenuity of officials, relief workers and flat dwellers.
Architects have drawn specifications for buildings to rival the tallest in New York, and sanitary and hygienic authorities are lecturing on the probable effect of high buildings, darkened streets and increased business and residence centers.
The agitation has been carried on intensively in Berlin, where there is a great shortage of rooming houses.
Buildings in German cities were limited under the old regime to a uniform height. Few are more than four stories high. The tallest business building in Berlin is only five stories.
PARROT BECOMES REFORMER
This Bird Would Be a Frost as Companion for a Pirate, but Is All Right in Lodge.
Dover, Del.—Dover's lodge of Elks has a parrot in its clubrooms which assists the house committee in enforcing the rules against the use of improper language.
The bird has learned eight fitting rebukes for a corresponding number of forbidden expressions, the use of which has been cut down to a minimum. Clifford Hawkins, steward, also is training Polly to censor minor infractions of the rules.
It is possible the parrot will be loaned to other lodges, as several have asked for the use of the bird.
Arm Venice Court Attaches.
Vienna.—Swords are now worn by court officers for protection at the order of the president of the Vienna criminal court, because of the many attacks upon judges and witnesses recently in court rooms.

We thank God for both of these facts. We know what Wilson has been; and, while we do not know what President Harding will be, we are confident that he will be a big improvement over his predecessor. Farewell forever, Mr. Wilson! All hail! President Harding!

EFFECT OF PROHIBITION IN ST. PAUL.
While THE APPEAL is not an ardent advocate of Prohibition, it believes that along some lines, there has been much reduction in crime under prohibition laws.

To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
In 1919 the arrests for drunkenness totaled 49.7 per cent of the whole number of arrests; in 1920 they were only 22 per cent of the total number, and a falling off of 66.1 per cent of the year before. Two thousand two hundred and fiv arrests less in a year means less work for the police department, less cost in the police stations and jail, less suffering and disgrace to wives and children and oftimes less men later in the workhouse and penitentiary.
The increase in burglary can be accounted for by men trying to break into cellars and drug stores, where they thought they might find drink.
The increase in vagrancy is possibly caused by some of the men not having saloons to spend the night in and were compelled to spend their time upon the streets.
THE IMMIGRANT QUESTION.
The hordes of foreigners who are planning to come to this country, if possible, are a menace to the opportunities of the native born colored working people who should be protected by appropriate legislation. Two suggestions have been offered with respect to proposed immigration legislation, in addition to the percentage basis submitted by Senator Dillingham. One is that the number of immigrants permitted to enter from any particular country be governed, as far as possible, by the percentage of that element of immigration which over a period of, say, the five years immediately preceding the war sought to be naturalized, the number to be regulated at the termination of each five—or ten-year period. Government statistics should be available for such solution. Another suggestion is to compel each immigrant to hold a license costing, say, $12 annually so long as he is not naturalized, without which he could not be employed. This would provide a source of Federal revenue and subject the immigrant to taxation which he now escapes. If it is worth coming here to work, it is worth paying for the privilege, and those races which take no interest in this country other than to receive high wages and then return should be penalized for their indifference to American institutions. The colored people all are citizens and taxpayers, and their interests should not be overlooked.
WOULD "CONVERT" THE JEWS.
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 hun-

dreds 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.
"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. P. in its contention before the committee is obtained, his chances for polishing the seat of his pants on a seat in Congress will be mighty unstin. Hence his objection.
SEGGREGATION BY CENSUS
The United States assumes that a group of about 10,000,000 people are Negroes and proceeds to so classify them. More than ninety-nine per cent of the persons so classified were born in America of American parents, and their parents were Americans and so on back for ten generations.
If a man whose ancestors for many generations is not an American, who is entitled to the name? If a white man can become an American in two generations, why should a person of any other color born in this country fail to "arrive" in the same space of time?
The name "Negro" applied to a group of citizens in this country is inaccurate, because it does not include forty or fifty million other Americans who have more or less. Negro blood. The expression "pure race" is amyth so all great writers on racial questions agree.
The mixing of blood in this country has gone so far that it is impossible to determine with any degree of accuracy who has Negro blood and who has not, and for the Government to select about 10,000,000 people and say that they are "Negroes," and by that act to aid in making them a separate treatment in church and state, is to perpetrate a great wrong.
It is an infamous thing for the government of this great republic to draw the color line in any way. In a republic every citizen should have exactly the same status so far as the government is concerned.
There is no reason why a Democracy should attempt to classify its citizens by their blood. All persons born in this country should be considered Americans without any prefixes or suffixes.

To my friends and the public in general:
In re-entering the furniture business in St. Paul, after an absence of several years, I have the pleasure of announcing my association with the Jacobs Furniture Co., Eighth Street at Cedar, where I have assumed the responsibilities of Credit and Business Manager. The public will remember the opening of this new furniture store only a few months ago. The stocks here are all new, and the prices based on present markets. Thus you are assured real values. Any one favoring me with a call in my new place of business will receive the same courteous attention my friends have known me to give in the past.
what is their just due and become rich and when they have accumulated millions they pose as "philanthropists" and endeavor to perpetuate their names by giving money for libraries or "charities," or Christian (?) associations.
Instead of being great philanthropists, these men, in many cases, are simply thieves who really ought to be in prison for having robbed their fellow men.
No class has suffered more from the "philanthropies" of these rich thieves than the colored people and their nefarious work has been aided by so-called colored leaders who have taken the role of public mendicants and have begged for money to organize jimcrow institutions and thus prevent their own class from securing their rights as American citizens.
The product of the segregated institution is usually a crop of young colored people with slavish instincts; cringing cowards, servile sycophants. Great God deliver the people from such charity and give them justice.
SAINT PAUL
Mr. J. H. Lawson, proprietor of the tailor-shop, 321 Jackson street, has been appointed custodian of the Fletcher property, occupying the entire west side of Jackson street, between Third and Fourth streets. He has charge of the rent collections, hiring of employees, management of the property, etc.
The Forum of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will meet tomorrow, Feb. 27, at 4 o'clock p. m., at Pilgrim Baptist Church, Grotto street and Central avenue. Mr. E. H. Davidson, Secretary of the Citizens Alliance, will deliver an address on "The Open Shop." Musical selections will also be given. All members and friends are urged to attend.
On Monday evening, Feb. 28. at St. James A. M. E. church the Sterling Club will present eight reels of moving pictures of Playground and Park activities of St. Paul. Commissioner James M. Clancy and Mr. E. M. Johnson, Supt. of Playgrounds, will be present. This entertainment will be free to the public, and everybody is invited and urged to be present.
All the folks who will not get to go to the inaugural ball at Washington, D.C., on next Friday evening, and on next Friday evening, of inauguration of President Harding, just as good time by going to Minneapolis and attending the Inaugural Ball to be given by the Minnesota Fraternal Hall Association, at Ames Hall, Kistler Building, Sixth Ave. N. and Lyndale. (See displayed advertisement on 4th page.)
The Second Ball of the Oriental Fun Series of the Arab Patrol of Fezzan Temple No. 26, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine, will be given Wednesday night, next week, March 2, at South Side Auditorium, Minneapolis. Both St. Paul and Minneapolis wearers of the red fez will be there to welcome all coniers. Music by Wm. Moore's Ten-piece Jazz Band. A number of fun-furnishing features will be pulled off. There will also be a barrel containing a prize for the one who guesses what's in the barrel. Everyone present is entitled to guess free.
The entertainment by the U. H. A. W. (Union Hall Association Wives) at Union Hall, on Washington's Birthday, proved to be a very pleasant affair, although not largely attended. The ladies who wore old-time costumes looked quite charming, and they rendered a very pleasing program, after which the time was passed in dancing. This was the first of a series of entertainments which the ladies contemplate to give. So be on the quiive for the next one.
Mrs. W. T. Francis will leave tonight for Washington, D. C., to attend a meeting called by Mrs. Lethia Fleming of Cleveland, Ohio, chairman of colored women, under the National Committee, to form a permanent organization March 3. She has also been invited by the custodian and treasurer of the Women's Douglass Memorial Home, Mrs J. C. Napier, of Nashville, Tenn., to attend a business meeting early in the day of March 5 and a reception later given to the Washington citizens and the delegates. The Douglass home was cleared of all debt through the efforts of
the women's clubs, but $6,000 is needed to make the changes and improvements necessary to have it what they desire it to be. Already $4,000 has been raised for that purpose, but $2,000 more is needed, and Mrs. Francis has been asked to appeal to Minnesota to do its share, as the money must be raised quickly so that the home may be put in proper shape by summer-time. Mrs. Francis will be the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Lincoln Johnson during her stay in Washington.
Value of Small Advertisement
The editor of The American Press advises publishers to cultivate the small accounts more intensively. Ten advertisers using six inches each weekly is better, it says, than one advertiser using 60 inches. To have a large number of small advertisers is much safer from a business standpoint, it contends, than to rely upon a few large users of space for necessary revenue.
MEMORIAL MENTIONINGS.

"THE BEST OF ALL IS CHARITY."
Mrs. Nellie Quarles, who moved from St. Paul to Buffalo, N. Y., a few months ago, where she has a rooming house which she has named The Saint Paul, is the secretary of a committee of Floyd's Memorial Church that feeds from 200 to 500 poor people every day, according to the daily papers that contained excellent notices of the activities of the people of Potter Street church as it is called. One of the papers stated that 1,600 hungry people had fed them in one week. Chairman of the Sims of the "dinner committee" is as saying: "Although this work is conducted solely by colored people, we do not discriminate between colored and white people." The menu offered the men out of work consists of soup, white bread and such other articles of food as are donated. Volunteers wait on table, wash dishes and make themselves generally useful.
SCANDAL.
Did you ever notice that "talk" doesn't hurt a man? Perfection isn't looked for in a man, and when some one tries to injure a man by ranting about a few faults he has, the absent one who is probably attending to his own affairs, is elevated in the hearer's estimation, while the informant is lowered accordingly. If a man knocks along doing fairly well, people realize that while he has some faults, he has more virtues, and they are charitable enough to overlook these faults. But it is difficult with a girl or woman. No matter how good and pure a woman may be, let someone start an infamous lie about her and too many people are willing to pass it along, and there is always some one to believe it. That lie can never be lived down. It may burn low, but gossip loving lips are ready with new fuel. Did you ever think how damnably mean some goody-goody people are in this respect?—Exchange
TALK YOUR WORK UP.
I beg of you, do not talk your work down. You cannot build it up by talking it down. If you cannot talk it up, for gracious' sake keep still and say nothing. We don't have much trouble about what we don't say. If you must tell your troubles to someone, tell them to God, but don't tell them to the people around about you. No business man or professional man or any other man who has thought things through properly ever talks about the difficulties of his work either publicly or in his work. The general of an army should know futilely the difficulties that confront him but the less he says about them the better. Knowing and talking are two different things. It is said that Von Motke's one asked to what he attributed the success of the Duke of Wellington as a great general. His answer was that he attributed it to the fact that he could hold his ongue in seven different languages. If we can hold our tongues in even one language, it will help a whole lot.
A cheerful front is half of the battle. Don't become sour. Don't become a grump. Don't become a sorehead.
Keep seriously sweet or sweetly serious. Especially in closing a work, keep mum and keep sweet no matter how hard it may be.
