SMOKE CANDLES ARE USEFUL Conceal Movements of Small Groups of Men Close at Hand—British Developed Candles Which Were Used by All the Allies. Philadelphia—Toxic smoke candles, recently developed, will have an extensive use in future wars, in the opinion of L. I. Shaw of the internal bureau of mines, who recently spoke on "Smoke and Incendiant Material" before the Franklin institute. "Smoke candles, so called," he said, "are small cylindrical boxes which are ignited by some sort of friction device, and which contains smoke producing mixtures. Their use is in setting up a smoke screen close at hand, for after ignition they are simply set on the ground, not being thrown or projected in any way. The need is very apparent to make the movements of small groups of men close at hand possible. Tried by British. "The British, early in the war, developed very satisfactory smoke candles which were used by all the allies. The Americans also developed a candle which was satisfactory, but which did not get into production and use in France before the armistice. The smoke is normally white, must have maximum capacity and be cool enough to prevent the setting up of air currents and thus rise from the ground. It must be heavy so as to be able to hold the minimum amount of wind at low altitude by the damages are admirably met by candles which produce a smoke consisting of zinc chloride. "As regards the future of incendiary material, my own opinion, which opinion, however, is substantiated by at least some of the military critics, that incendiary material, except for small arms and long range shell and drop bombs, will have at least a limited and, perhaps, no use. The flame projectors will probably never be used in a future war. Smoke material, on which projectors will have a very extensive and ever-increasing use. By the use of the smoke screen during an attack the casualties can be largely reduced. New Use of Smoke. There was in progress of development by the British and Americans during the latter part of the war smoke candles which would give a toxic smoke. The toxic material employed was diphenylchlorarsine. Diphenylchlorarsine is a solid which vaporizes in the heat of the candle and is obtained in a state of division that it will penetrate most gas masks. It will smoke, of which there will probably be some, but if you find a very extensive use in the future. It is the greatest step made thus far in the new use of smoke." CATS DO NOT RECOGNIZE MILK Refuse to Drink Strange Liquid In Hungary—Pet Dogs Turn Vagrants. Bupadest.—Even the cats and dogs of Central Europe have degenerated as a result of the war, says Professor Balkanek, director of the veterinary schools here, who is investigating how the habits of domestic animals have been influenced by that cause. The town-bred cats in this part of the world are milk milk, because it is unknown to them, due to the lack of milk during the war, the professor asserts. "Both cats and dogs are relapsing to the savage ways of their untainted ancestors," he says. "The vagrancy of dogs is startling. Pet dogs elope from heart-broken mistresses, joining packs of mamy village dogs, where they live in communist equality." The same authority stated that, besides serious diseases are very frequent among animals, and that stock must be replenished from overseas. Man's Gold Tooth Stolen by Expert Pickpocket New Orleans. — There is in New Orleans a pickpocket who is expert enough to fulfill the time-honored specification test of being "able to steal a man's gold teeth." He demonstrated this when he stole a gold tooth which had previously been the property of Adrien A. Chazule, 1030 St. Philip street. However, the tooth happened to be in Mr. Chazule's purse at the time, and it was the purse which the pickpocket took while its owner was a passenger in the Louisiana avenue street car. Slow Clock Costs Railroad Money. Decatur, Ala. — Because the clock in a railroad station was slow, causing her to miss the train on which the body of her dead son was being conveyed, Mrs. Ellen Carey has been awarded $500 damages against the Louisville and Naubly railroad. INCREASE OF ALIENS Net Growth in Immigrant Population for Year 193,514. Total of 633,371 Sought Entrance to United States in Last Fiscal Year. Washington—Establishment of machinery overseas in co-operation with foreign governments through which aliens before breaking up their homes may determine whether they will be admitted to the United States and legislative consideration of the proposals of the second industrial conference are outstanding recommendations in the annual report of Secretary of Labor Wilson. The report shows that 633,371 aliens arrived in this country during the last fiscal year, as compared with 23,071 the year before. Of the total arrivals, 11,795 were excluded at the ports where they sought to enter. Of those arriving 430,001 are classed as immigrant aliens and 195,575 as nonimmigrant aliens. Departures of aliens totaled 428,062, including 288,315 nonimmigrant aliens, making the net increase in the annual population for the year 193,514. Japanese admitted 16,174, as compared with 14,904 the year before. The total number of Japanese departing is placed at 15,653, making the port says, the indicated increase in Japanese population, 521. Of those admitted, 9,193 were males and 6,981 females. Besides the immigrants turned back at the port of arrival, 2,762 were ordered deported during the year on departmental warrants, as compared with 3,068 the year before. Of those deported, 469 were classed as anarchists and criminals. In addition, 551 others are awaiting deportation. During the year 519,003 allens took the initial or final steps toward citizenship. Million urges legislative action to carry out the recommendations of the second industrial conference, proposing joint organizations, management and employees for prevention of industrial disputes and a comprehensive plan for adjusting such disputes when they occur. DIGGERS TURN UP TREASURE Sewer Workers Find Collection of Rings and Watches in a Boston Slime Pit. Boston.—A sewer gang quit work at noon the other day with a valuable treasure trove. In the slime of an old pit near the Quincy house they had found three gold rings, coins, watches and other valuables. Hotel employees suggested that the hotel had a claim on the articles, as the property probably of guests of bygone days. The police suspected that they were part of the loot of thieves. But when the men showed coins dating back to 1877, stamped with a pine bead on one side and "Massachusetts" on the other, they insisted that the statute of limitations made the property theirs. With the ancient coins they found beer checks, which the foreman of the gang said he intended to keep with a "pine tree shilling," as a souvenir of the past. The foreman estimated that the deposit of mud in which the valuables were found had not been disturbed in 75 years. It's No Fault of Mint If You're Shy of Coin Washington.-The mints established a record in coinage during the last fiscal year, according to the annual report of Director Ray Baker made public. A total of 800,500,000 coins were minted by the Baker declares, is a world's record. The figures show an increase of 446 per cent over 1915. Public demand for smaller coins, particularly pennies, is reflected in the report, which discloses that more than 512,500,000 coins in the record output were 1-cent pieces. KING SPLITS ROYAL ESTATE Spanish Monarch to Parcel Out 2,500 Acres of Land In Small Farm Plots. Madrid. — Instructions have been given by King Alfonso for the forma- tion of an agricultural syndicate, the out of which will be the parceling out of the King's royal estate of El Pardo, nine miles west of this city, for cultivation under the auspices of the Catholic Agrarian federation. The property contains nearly 2,500 acres and will be divided into small plots. A plan has been devised which will permit laborers to acquire the land allotted to them. "The Yellow Ostrich Feather." Booneville, Ky.—Nancy and Cynthia Hale, aged fourteen and fifteen, respectively, who cook and wash and sew for six little motherless brothers and attend to make a quail which they have christened "The Yellow Ostrich Feather." Neighbors thought so much of it that it was sent to Louisville to be sold for the benefit of women of the mountains. THE APPEAL. ST. PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1921 LIVE IN OLD BOATS One Way Philadelphia People Solve House Problem. 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 some of the furniture out of her home the other day in order to clean, the house 25 persons tried to rent it from within a few hours. To oppose the profitering in rents and homes, organizations are attempting to unite on a program of house building to compete 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 tents 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 are exposed when mild weather comes. Those rented in one community cost about $600 each and are eager 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 piano as he does for the bushes. J. F. Corwin, the auctioneer, recently stablished the countryside when he got the farmers tumbling all over themselves to bid in a blind horse at $150 and loose hay for the sensational price of $75 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. The farmers fooled him this time. In the midst of inking in spite of all his claims that Padowewski would be giad to have this instrument, it was knocked down for $250. TRIES "MOVIE" STUNT; DIES New York Lad, Aged Fifteen, Strangles Himself to Death with "Third Degree" Device. 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 iron weights. On the floor behind the body was a butter tub, kicked to pieces, evidently in his efforts to avoid a fatal end to his test of the improvised "third degree." According to the younger boys, the rope and weights were to be applied to Isador, whom Solomon had accused of stealing a fountain pen cep. AGREE ON REMOVING DEAD French to Permit Dialectment of U. 8. Men in the Fighting Zones 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 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 fixin' things to be fixed." A $25 fine fixed it with the court, when Jones agreed with having connected a copper coil to a still. New agents came upon Jones while he was at work. Defective Page OPEN SHRINE TO DEAD EMPEROR Strange Ceremony in Japan, Including Vaudeville, Marks Two Days of Worship. BUILDING COST $10,000,000 Impressive Manifestations of Loyalty Featured the Soolem Shinto Ceremonies—Voices Silent During Worship. Tokyo—After six years' labor and an expenditure estimated at $10,000, the national shrine to the late Emperor Mutsuhito was opened recently with solemn Shinto ceremonies, and amid impressive manifestations of loyalty. For three days the populace of Tokyo celebrated the occasion. Every street was decorated with bunting, and from the humblest door lanterns were displayed at night. The municipality gave a flower show and open-air performances and theatrical performances in Hibiya park, but for the most part the festivities were co-operatively organized by the citizens in different wards. At hundreds of central points stages had been erected, where vandeville shows were given and there were fireworks both night and day. Thousands From Country. Over 250,000 persons from the country districts visited the city during the festival. The shrine is a typical Shinto building of plain wood, and of the simplest possible construction. The opening ceremony was attended by over 2,000 persons and officials, and lasted about three hours. The central feature was the delivery to Prince Ichigo, warden of the shrine, of the name tablets of the late emperor, and their installation in the inner sanctuary. Prince Kujo, a relative of the emperor, delivered a commemorative oration to which Prince Ichijo replied. The shrine was thereafter opened to the public and at least 500,000 people worshiped before it during the remainder of the day. The shrine were paying their respects to the memory of the dead emperor was impressive. The main entrance to the shrine is by means of a new and very broad road about two miles in length. Along this road all the day and evening two great strings of people poured, one going to the shrine, the other returning. The whole of this roadway was brilliantly lighted and decorated with flags and ornamental lanterns. But once the toril at the entrance to the shrine had been passed a great change occurred. The scene. The middle world was left behind, the gold and red ornamentation cessed and the rest of the way was made under the shade of gigantic pine trees, which might have been part of the virgin forests of old Japan. Pilgrims were admitted in groups of about 200. Their journey ended in a small paved courtyard enclosed with a low wall. The shrine, a low, severely plain building, was opposite the gateway, and by the dim light of two large paper lanterns about a dozen white flowers, they were moving slowly back and forth within the doorway. They were sweeping up the coins that rained continually on the steps of the shrine. Voices Are Silent Not a sound could be heard except the light hand-clapping of the worshipers calling on the enshrined spirit of the emperor. No human voice was heard. There was not even an audible prayer; in complete silence the multitude paid their respects to the spirit of Meijl and passed on. On the two following days the shrine was again visited by hundreds of thousands, and the proceedings were enlightened by wrestling and other public entertainments near the shrine. The crown prince, on behalf of the emperor, worshiped at the shrine on the occasion. It is intended to associate the young men of Japan especially with the Meijl shrine. A huge stadium will be built in the grounds of the shrine, and it is expected that the principal athletic events of Japan will be contested there in the future. BONES OF PILGRIMS MOVED Taken From Canopy Over Plymouth Rock, Which Is Being Reset to Shore Level. Plymouth, Mass—The bones of some of the Pilgrim fathers were exposed for a time when the box in which they have been kept was taken from the canopy over Plymouth rock, where it had rested since 1880. The records do not identify the bodies, but the two relatively well-preserved skulls and other bones found in the casket are reputed to be those of members of the colony who died during the ordeal of the first winter. The canopy is to be removed and the rock reset under conditions that will bring it again to shore level. Heart in the Right Place. Anderson, Ind.-Firemen hoisted a 40-foot ladder to rescue a pigeon suspended over a high ledge of St. Mary's church. The pigeon was entangled in twine. Women in the crowd which watched the rescue applauded. 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 McPearson 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 moment 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 scion of the house of Kindersley became an expert camp cook. "While fighting our way up Rat river," he said, "mosquitos 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 mosquites. But I enjoyed every minute of it." ONTARIO BUYS UP RAILWAYS 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 govern- ment, was completed whereby the province will purchase virtually all of the MacKenzie power interests in and around this city for $32,844,000. Property concerned comprises, in addition to various suburban railways and power plants, the Electric Deve- lopment company at Niagara Falls, Ont., with its transmission line to Toronto. The deal marks the close of two year's negotiations between Sir Wil- iam MacKenzie and Sir Adam Beck. It means that, with the exception of the Dominion Power company at Ham- ilton, all the larger hydro concerns in the province are publicly owned. Breaks Glass to Get Kiss; Finds Girl Wax Philadelphia--Louis Katrally came down from Coatesville, Pa., to see the city sights. He was passing a department store when he saw the beautiful figure of a girl in one of the windows, in casting an alluring smile in his direction. He beckoned to her to come out and join him, she did not move and kept right there. Louis added 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. FINDS $1,100 ON TRASH_PILE Stolen War Savings Stamps Were Hidden in Old Vallse in Guthrie, Okla. Guthrie, Okla.—Six weeks ago W. F. Davis of this city found an old vallse 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. Inquiring developed the fact that the vallse 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. Nineteen His Fateful Number. Madisonville, Ky.—Kinneen" surely played a tragic role in the last days of Roscoe Ashley, buried at Grapevine. He enlisted September 19, 1917, was wounded September 19, 1918, died November 19 of the same year and his body arrived in the United States November 19, 1920. What Little Brother Bagged. Madisonville, Ky.—Roy Oakley, aged fifteen, will live, though 71 shot had to be picked from his body by a surgeon. He and his little brother, Tommy, went rabbit hunting. Tommy shot Boy instead of the bunny. CASH AND LOVE GONE Once Wealthy Man Brings Action Against Girl Wife. Aged Husband Demands an Accounting for $50,000 Turned Over to Wife and Relatives. Atlantic City—Pennilless and sixty-five years old, William P. Riffle, once a wealthy resident of Uniontown, Pa., appeared before vice chancellor Learning here in an action he has brought against his nineteen-year-old wife and her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Mathews, formerly of New York, but the past year residents of this city. He sues to compel the latter to give an accounting for $50,000 which he turned over to them. Riffle testified that two years ago Mrs. Mathews showed him the picture of her niece, then seventen, when he went to her hotel on South Illinois avenue, in search of health. He said that he became enamoured of the girl and Mrs. Mathews brought her to the hotel. They became engaged after he had promised to give her $10,000. Shortly afterward they were married. He testified that he Mr. and Mrs. Mathews nearly $50,000, with the understanding that the money was to be invested in real estate. After his money was gone, he charged, his wife sold the furniture he had bought for their home despite his protest. She then gave him $16 of the proceeds to go to his home, he added, and even tried, he swore, to take that away from him before he left. The defense sought to show that the money had paid for $4,000 worth of clothes for the young wife, an automobile, diamonds and jewelry. Riffle admitted the money lasted only six months. Then, he charged, the Mathews sent him home to Unionville for the funds, but he had been unsuccessful. He declared that he was forced to leave his wife in March of this year. COURT O. K.'S HAIR PULLING Wife Justified in "Remonstrating With Massachusetts Judge Rule Lynn, Mass.—A hair-pulling match between a wife and another woman who is found with the husband is perfectly in order from the spouse's viewpoint, according to the ruling of Associate Justice Edward B. O'Brien of the District court here. He was called upon to render a decision at the trial of Mrs. Lillian Miner, a divorcee, charged with assault with a revolver upon Mrs. Catherine Curtis, the wife of a Boston policeman. Although it was charged that Mrs. Curtis made the first move in the hostilities, the justice said: "I think the wife is justified in remonstrating, even to the extent of pulling hair, and if such a case came before me for trial I should rule in favor of the aggrieved wife." Love of Music Traps Robber of Poor Box Philadelphia—It was his love for music which led to the arrest of Jacob Katz, twenty-four years old. Katz entered the Emanuel Lutheran church here shortly after midnight and found the poor box which he emptied of its contents, $3. Then he found the new organ. Katz had musical talent and he ran his fingers over the keys. Then he became absorbed in the moment that he forgot where he was pulled out the diaphone and thundered away. The strains awakened the pastor, Rev. Rudolph Nieder, who lives next door, and he called the police. ROBBER OFFERS VICTIM $10 *You Need It Worse Than I* He Says to Holdup on Finding Man Stebenville, O.-Daniel Cable, a pottery worker, reported to the police here that a robber, who had held him up while he was on his way home in a suburb, offered to give him $10 after the highwayman discovered that he was penniless. Cable said that the robber leaped upon, overpowered him, and then went through his pockets. Finding no money, Cable said, the highwayman rolled over his pocket, pulled out a roll of bills and offered to give him $10, saying: "Here, brother, you need it worse than I do." Cable said he was too surprised to accept the money. Laborer Gets $160,000 Anaconda, Mont.—From a laborer's task at the Washoe smelter to the possession of $150,000 was the realization here recently of Claude Shemuker, who received a telegram from an Eastern broker advising him that he had realized this fortune on the sale of oil stock. Shemuker immediately drew his earnings, purchased a railroad ticket and started East. Shemuker conceived the idea of buying oil from the White River while overseeing with the Twenty-third division he was wounded. His original investment was $300 of back army pay. He intends purchasing a ranch in Oregon, he said. $2.40 PER YEAR FOR PREVENTION OF BLINDNESS Wonderful Progress Made by the National Committee in That Direction. Conservation of Vision Clases Growing in Number as Educators Discover It is Practicable to Open Classes in Small Cities. New York—More than 4,000 supporters of the work of the National Committee for the Prevention of Blindness were reported at the sixth annual meeting in this city. This report shows a remarkable increase from the 65 charter members in 1915. The work for the last year showed much progress for the conservation of vision in the public schools and colleges. The report continues: "Conservation of vision classes in the public schools are growing in number as educators have discovered, through the efforts of our committee, that it is practicable to open such classes even in cities smaller than the largest. The present census of such classes is 62, of which 12 have been established within the last year. So far as known, the classes which now support such classes include Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Washington. There is no more hopeful part of our work than this, and we are proud to have contributed a considerable part to the establishment of these classes. Blindness In Children. "The chief cause of blindness among children is due to ophthalmia neocatarinum. The percentage this year is 22.5 per cent as compared with 15.7 per cent for last year of those who have newly entered the residential schools. This disease is an inflammation of the eye usually contracted by newly born children. The percentage is even higher in the public classes. We have reason to regress this unfortunate relapse. This is the result that has not shown a considerable decrease in the number of cases that our figures are more accurate than in the years gone by, and possibly some of this increase is due to the greater accuracy of our reports. We must faithfully and persistently pursue our fight against babies' sore eyes and continue to reduce the number of children who need not have been blind. "Trachoma's victims (one of the most dreaded of contagious eye diseases) have been discovered in several states where it was not suspected this scourge could be prevalent. Not less than nine states have during this year initiated or renewed their fight against the spread of trachoma, particularly, there has been a marshaline systematic operation in the stamping out of this disease. In all cases it has been the function of this committee to serve as a helpful agency in this work. Caused by Wood Alcohol. "Wood alcohol poisoning still causes much blindness through drinking this substance masquerading as a familiar stimulant. This condition was not a surprise to us, and we had issued a warning which was used throughout the United States. Much activity resulted because of the newspaper accounts of the dreadful situation, and considerable work has been done by them toward eliminating this cause of needless blindness." The author of the Society for Electrical Development delivered the annual address. The subject of Mr. Porter's address was "Through Life's Windows." He showed the great dependence of man on healthy and well cared for eyes, which he compared to a pair of motion picture cameras. "Indeed, the motion picture camera is made in imitation of the eye," he continued. "The better the condition of the lens and the better the illumination of the object the better the result of the photographer's effort. Just so with the more perfect instrument, the eye, and it behoves every one to see that his eyes are kept in good condition and free from eyestrain to it takes a longer time to take a good picture in poor light than in good light, so it takes longer to obtain a good conception of what is before us with poor eyesight and in poor light. Employers are wise who provide against accidents from poor lighting." Return Hero Medal Connellsville, Pa.-While a negro woman held up Mrs. Annabelle Gemas along the West Penn street car line, near the Gemas home, two negroes searched her, took her pocketbook, containing about $30, but returning a gold service medal which the woman's husband, the late Gomea Gemas, had been awarded for service in the Spanish-American war. The trio halted Mrs. Gems with the request, "Please give us your money, lady." Something Funny. All Right. Tittonville, O.—There was something funny about the chicken dinner served Mayor Charles Beswick. He was guest of honor at a stag party where the chicken was served in liberal portions. On returning home Beswick found that 15 of his choice mollers had disappeared. No. 301-2 Court Block, 24 E. 4th st. J. Q. ADAMS, Manager. PHONE: N. W. CEDAR 5649.

"Any prejudice whatever will be insurmountable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and flatter it and accept it as a law of nature." —John Stuart Mill. SATURDAY, JUNE 18, 1924 K. K. K. SIMMONS TALKS. In a recent speech to the Mississippi Confederate veterans at Tupelo, Miss. Col. William J. Simmons, imperial wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, said that what the confederate soldier lost on the battlefield was won back for the South, and for white civilization by these same soldiers in the guise of the Ku Klux Klan, and when he declared that what the members of the original Ku Klux Klan won for the white race would be guarded religiously as a sacred heritage by the men of today, a rebel yell was given. TO "CONVERT" THE HAITIANS. According to the memorial filed by the Haitian commission now in the United States, nearly 10,000 inhabitants of that unhappy isle have been ruthlessly slaughtered by the marines since the American occupation in 1915. Now missionaries and courts martial have been ordered for the "welfare" of those not as yet converted into corpses. The rule of the navy has evidently been drastic, but God save the Haitians from the activities of the hypocrites who represent the orthodox churches of the U. S. The Haitians are all Catholics and have opposed oppression to the death. Converted to the orthodox religion of the Protestant U. S. brand they would lose all manhood and accept jimcrowism without a protest. For five years the Haitians have lost their lives only; now a subtle attempt is being made to take that which is greater than life—MANHOOD. ILLINOIS HOUSE SCORES K. K. K. State Representative S. B.

MASON Congressman-at-large from Illinois, Who Died at Washington Thursday Was Outspoken in the Defence of the Rights of All Americans. and against the best interests and welfare of the people at large; now, therefore, be it "Resolved by the house of representatives of the state of Illinois, that we condemn and deplore the attempt to organize posts of the Ku Klux Klan in the state of Illinois, and urge all good citizens of the state in the interests of law and order and the welfare of our state to do all in their power to discourage the operation of this organization in the state of Illinois." parade was a number of colored children who were placed at the tail-end of the procession and thus compelled to publicly honor the man whose life was spent in devising methods to degrade the race. It was an atrocious thing to do, but "very southern." If a parallel event had occurred in Ireland, the Irish mothers would have given their child something to produce sickness so that the children would not have been compelled to honor their enemies. One may not always be able to prevent being kick- THE JEWS, THE CHRISTIANS AND THE MOHAMMEDANS. Speaking in the house of commons, Winston Spencer Churchill, colonial secretary of Great Britain, discussing the formation of an Arab state in Mesopotamia admitted that there was a graver problem in Palestine much smaller in a military sense. The Arabs feared that they would be swamped in a few years by immigration from Central Europe and Russia, and that the Jews would gain absolute control of Palestine. He declared, however, that THIS WAS QUITE ILLUSORY; no Jews would be brought in beyond the number that could be provided for by the development of the country's resources. And the Jews thought they would have a "home land" all to themselves. The Pope, head of the Catholic church, in an allocation creating three cardinals, "deplores the privileged position enjoyed by the Jews in Palestine, which is dangerous for Christians." Addressing a number of young Jesuits about to start for the Philippines, Archbishop Hayes of New York "regrets that the British government would not allow these young Jesuit priests to go to India simply because they were of Irish birth." In the meantime Britain will rule Palestine and see to it that the Jews do not get complete control, so the hope of a real Jewish "home land" goes glimmering. And the good old world will continue on its orbit utterly oblivious of the rows between the Christians, Mohammedans and Jews. COMPELLED TO HONOR GRADY. Recently Atlanta, Georgia, had a great demonstration in honor of Henry Grady, probably the most bitter enemy the colored people ever had and more dangerous because his enmity was masked under protestations of friendship, which is usual in the South. Grady was the father of segregation and the enactment of jimcrow car laws and other schemes of segregation may be largely ascribed to his preachments and influence. One of the features of the recent I honor the man who in the conscientious discharge of his duty dares to stand alone; the world, with ignorant, intolerant judgment, may condemn, the countenances of relatives may be averted, and the hearts of friends grow cold, but the sense of duty done shall be sweeter than the applause of the world, the countenances of relatives or the hearts of friends.—Charles Sumner. parade was a number of colored children who were placed at the tail-end of the procession and thus compelled to publicly honor the man whose life was spent in devising methods to degrade the race. It was an atrocious thing to do, but "very southern." If a parallel event had occurred in Ireland, the Irish mothers would have given their child something to produce sickness so that the children would not have been compelled to honor their enemies. One may not always be able to prevent being kicked, but it is not necessary to thank the one who administers the kick. The writer recently overheard a black man, just, from the South, say: "I think the Southern whites are the best friends of my people." He was dirty, ignorant and degraded and utterly unable to appreciate the difference between the North and the South, but there are men, living in the South who make some pretences to education who have said the same. Of course they were looking for the "good nigger pat." There are a few white people, very few, living in the South, who are Christians and who are willing to accord to colored people all the rights of citizenship, but the great majority are not friends in any sense of the word, unless jincrow laws and customs are evidences of friendship. And again some of the most pronounced enemies of the colored people are black and yellow men who are continually saying things which make the whites [hold the whole colored group in contempt, because no man can really respect another man who believes himself to be inferior and makes public announcement of this belief. Some colored people denounce all white people. That is unjust and wrong. Garrison, Lovejoy, Harriet Beecher Stowe, Phillips and thousands of others were who practically gave their lives to prove their friendship. And today John Haynes Holmes and thousands of others are better friends to the colored group, than some who, black in heart as well as in face, "crime and bend the supple hinges of the knee that thrift may follow fawning." "SPECIAL ASSISTANTS." Under the above heading the Washington (D. C.) Tribune prints the following editorial. The announcement of the appointment of the Hon. Perry W. Howard by Attorney General Daugherty last week, to a "special" assistant-ship to the Attorney General, to look after fraudulent claims brought by Colored people against the government, pro- FRIENDS. vokes this question: Where do we come in as a race in this appointment? The Tribune is of the opinion that there is more involved in these appointments of our supposed race leaders than a mere $5,000 salary. In fact, The Tribune is not elated over either of the three appointments that have been dished out to our group. They are nothing more than mere clerkships. The first one, that of Leut. Flipper, is regarded as the best of the three. The last two of Phil Brown and Perry Howard apparently show that the pie hunters are tired of waiting and are willing to accept any old thing offered. Of what service is either of these appointments to the race? Neither of these appointments come under the category of "Presidential appointments," requiring their names to be sent up to the Senate for confirmation. They have no definite status and may be cut out at any time. Therefore President Harding has not made a single appointment of a colored man during the 11 weeks of his administration. In a recent public address, Mr. Brown said that he "had no plans" for his department and in accepting the position he was not pleased with the paragraph setting forth the status of his position. Then why show the yellow streak and accept a position, the status of which does not meet with one's moral sense of equity and justice? Yet the information is sent out that these appointments are of a great benefit to the race. Why complain of segregation in the civil service, then turn around and accept a "special clerkship" where one is placed off in a segregated corner and given insinifificant, segregated duties? Is there consistency in this? If the Republican Party has a sense of appreciation for the constant and unfailing support of colored people, now is the time to demonstrate it. We are of the opinion that the G. O. P. is long on promises, but short on fulfilling them. And our supposed race leaders, politicians, et al., should have the moral courage of their convictions and not fall for every worn-eaten plum that may be offered. Especially is this true in the case of Mr. Brown and Mr. Howard, who are in a financial position enabling them to be more cautious in accepting these "special," segregated, "assistant-ship." The race is demanding commensures with its political power, its intelligence and taxpaying worth, and our political leaders should support us in this demand. It will be recalled that the "jim-crow assistant" business was started during the world war, when the then secretary of war appointed a colored man as a "confidential clerk" as shown by the official records. It was given out that he was a "special assistant to the secretary of war," and many of the people were deceived and really believed that a colored man had been appointed assistant secretary of war. It was evidently a camouflage for that specific purpose. Those who were versed in such things knew that a real assistant secretary to any member of the President's cabinet, must be nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The so-called "special assistant" to the Democratic secretary of war was simply a "hardy man" to act as a buffer between Baker and the colored people when they came to make complaints about the outrageous treatment of the colored soldiers in the jimcrow cars and jimcrow training camps in the United States and in the labor battalions and on the firing line in France. The "special assistant" had no actual status as an official of the government. In the campaign of 1920, THE APPEAL called the attention of the Republican managers to the fact that in a previous campaign, Marcus A. Hanna had appointed three colored men as actual members of the Advisory Committee of the Republican National Committee and advised that the same be done in the Harding-Coolidge campaign and that jimcrowism be entirely eliminated. In this THE APPEAL was supported by a number of prominent colored men from all parts of the country. Then Henry Lincoln Johnson of Georgia won for himself his place as Republican national committeeman from Georgia. THE APPEAL was proud of his success which he had achieved in spite of the efforts of Roosevelt and other leaders to prevent his election, and sent him a letter of congratulation and suggested that he ought to be a membr of the executive committee of the party organization and offered what little aid. He was asked to use his influence to prevent any segregation in the campaign. No reply came to this letter. On July 3, 1920, a second special delivery letter was sent to Mr. Johnson containing the following: "You should have been made a member of the executive committee of the Republican National Committee. Many women, novices in politics were put on it—why not you? I had hoped that you would step into the inner circle of party management. Hope it is not yet too late, can anything be done?" No reply was ever received to this letter, but shortly after a special "colored" buren was organized with Mr. Johnson as the head and Mr. Perry Howard as secretary. THE APPEAL continued its work of trying to get pledges from the Republican party leaders that they would cut segregation in the departments in Washington and else- where, if they were successful in electing their candidates. Howard got hold of one of the letters addressed to one of the Republican party officials and replied in part as follows: "I, perchance came across a copy of your letter, and I find that you are true to your previous record in standing out for those things which affect our interests. I think, however, in this instance, you press the issue a bit too far." * * * "You will recall that until the Democratic party assumed control of affairs at Washington, there was no segregation at Washington. Then, why should we demand that the Republican party be committed to opposition to "jimcrowism"? "You will recall that prior to the reign of the Wilson oligarchy there was no color line in the United States Army. Then why should we demand that the Republican party commit itself on this question?" After criticising THE APPEAL for endeavoring to eliminate the danger of segregation, it is not surprising that he now accepts an appointment which carries less dignity than the place held by William H Lewis under President Taft. Colored men have held representative places under every Republican administration since the time President Grant came into power, and even under Democratic President Cleveland they were given honorable presidential appointments. Cleveland appointed Mr. Trotter, father of that valiant defender of the right, William Monroe Trotter, recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. These were all presidential appointments and each one was confirmed by the Senate. In addition there were a number of special assistant district attorneys, deputy collectors of customs, deputy collectors of internal revenue and other officials who were appointed by the heads of the various departments. And under a former Republican administration a colored man served as minister to Santo Domingo. Without exception the colored men in presidential offices served the government faithfully and with credit to themselves and the group they represented. NOW READ THIS CAREFULLY: William H. Lewis of Massachusetts was appointed ASSISTANT ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES, a presidential appointment, confirmed by the Senate of the United States. Perry Howard of Mississippi has been appointed SPECIAL ASSISTANT to the Attorney General of the United States. Lewis was an assistant attorney general; Howard is an assistant to the Attorney General. There is a great difference in the status. Lewis was an official; Howard is an assistant to an official and has been assigned to special work on the claims of colored people against the United States. If the matter stopped with Howard it would not make much difference, but it affects the citizenship status of every colored person in the country and segregates colored people from every other group of American citizenship, and establishes a dangerous precedent. Now after 400,000 colored men served in the war "to make the world safe for democracy, and with the Republican party, to which the colored voter has always been a faithful ally, in complete control of the government, it is infamous that the party leaders should insult the people by giving inferior appointments, and it is humiliating to think that colored men will accept such places. It will be noted that the men appointed are Southerners. Northern voters, who voted for the Republican nominees and whose votes were counted are not satisfied with what has been done. They feel that it would been better to have had nothing at all rather than inferior appointments, which tend to lower their status as citizens. Some high class colored men ought to get a few high class presidential appointments just as under former Republican administrations. Judge Francis E. Baker of the United States Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago is slated to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Chief Justice White of the United States Supreme Court, according to reliable reports. It is well. Judge Baker has the reputation of being a square man. Again the Twin Cities Join in a Matriarchal Alliance Representing Two Old Well Known and Highly Respected Families. The leading social event of last week was the wedding of Mr. Mark I. Gibbs, of Minneapolis, fourth son of Mr. and Mrs. Jasper Gibbs, Sr., and also the fourth of their Br. J. join the army of Benedicts, and Miss Beatrice Lucille Greene, daughter of Mr. William L. Greene, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Willis, 1040 Iglebrat avenue, uncle and also the fourth day evening, June 11th, at 8 o'clock, Rev Hodge, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church, officiating. As the high contracting parties, as well as their families, are among the leading social sets of the Twin Cities, a large number of those who were married to matrimonial alliance were present, completely filling the spacious parlor. The decorations were quite elaborate and beautiful, the color scheme of pink and green being faithfully carried out. A background for the wedding party was formed of palms, cut flowers and foliage; and there were two large candelabras of which were tied large pink candles green tulle bows, and the baskets were filled with pink peonies. Amid the foliage there were three candelabra of lighted pink candles. The dining room was decorated with pink gladiolas, peonies and carnations. The dining table was decorated with sashes: of tulle reaching from the center light to four pink candles near the corners. The bride's cake was cut into small squares with sashes: of tulle wrapped in white crepe tissue paper with white baby ribbon. The packages were placed in a large white basket and were distributed to the guests by Mrs. J. Giles, of Minneapolis. At the appointed hour as Mrs. Virginia Tibbs-Hughes played the wedding march from Lohengrin, the party came down stairs and entered the parlor for the following order: The ushers, Messrs. Everett Roberts, Harold Comds, Peavey Johnson, Jasper and Hiram Gibbs. They bore the ribbons that made an aisle to the altar. They were in full regulation dress. Then came the flower girl, Miss Ermina Hall, wearing a white embroidered gown and bullseash. She carried a basket of Marchel Nell roses. Next the matron of honor, Mrs. Morris Gibbs, gowned in pale green satin over draped with green tulle trimmed with pink rosebuds; decollete bodice of sequin; head dress band of sequin and green tulle; carried Marchel Nell roses. Then, maid of honor, Miss Grace O'Brien, attired in a decollete draped gown; satin trimmed with sequin and tulle; head dress of rainbow tulle and an ostrich plume; carried pink roses. Then came the beautiful blushing bride resplendent in a gown of draped white satin, trimmed with old lace and white rose buds; white tulle veil caught up by a band of pearls; white rose stockings, white satin slippers trimmed with beads; carried a shower bouquet of white bride's roses and sweet peas. The groom and his best man, Mr. Wendell Gibbs, met the bride at the altar, where she was given away by her father. When the bridal party was in proper position the ceremony making the twain one was read by Rev. B. H. Hodge. During the wedding ceremony Mr. Earl Weber sang very effectively: "I Love Thee Truly." The gowns of the bride and matron of honor were designed by Mrs. J. Giles, the gown of the maid of honor was made by her from her own design. After congratulations had been extended to the newly-weds, refreshments were served and everything "went merry as a marriage bell." Miss Lucile Elliott, University Ave. on Thursday, June 9, gave a "broom shower" for the bride, and a large number of articles were presented. They played games and had a genial time. A feature of the evening was a meal with the bride-to-be in the role of the bride, and Mrs. David Hall as groom, attired in full male attire. Mr. C. H. Miller played the part of minister with his usual success The party was very pleasant. Mrs. H. Dover Hilyard gave a "dress-up" to the Y. W. Center on Tuesday and a big lot of kitchen necessities was given and a good time had. Mr. Everett Roberts of Minnesota gave a dinner party for the bridal party Wednesday night. Mesdames Jasper Gibbs, Jr., and Hiram Gibbs, of Minnesota, on Friday night, June 10th, gave a dancing party in honor of the brides-elect,isses Bentrice Greene and Alma Paul Greene, who were Center, St. Paul.
