Men Love It for the Opportunities It Gives Them to Disport in the Limelight, and Young Women Just Dote on it. Baseball is the most dangerous game known to history. When it comes to mortality lists, baseball leaves football a lap behind in a six-furlong race on a mile track. Statisticians have figured it out that it is 430 times as destructive to human life as a Mexican revolution, and almost as deadly as Mexican chill. Annually it kills off so many aunts, uncles and grandparents that thinking people wonder how the undertakers can stand the steady work. For example, in the course of one thrilling pennant race, our office boy lost seven grand-mothers. For all that, we love baseball. Even in spite of the grand-stand humorist we love it. It is our national game. We feel that, since this country was to give us baseball, our Revolutionary sires did not bleed and die in vain. Men have much reason to love baseball. It gives them the chance to admire skill, speed, strength, nerve, courage and determination, and to learn the latest slang and most pepful repartee. It gives them the chance to boldly abuse and insult other men without fear of consequences and to exhibit their wilt before large crowds. It gives them the chance to set up real heroes and bow down to them. Statesmen are corrupt, generals fight from their tents, literary lions are pale, weak bodies. But baseball heroes are real heroes. And it—baseball—also gives men the opportunity to be as loud and silly and joyously unrepressed as they want to be, without being laughed at. Young women like baseball, too, and some of them understand it remarkably well. Some of them are said to know the difference between the pitcher and the umpire. There is a legend that once there was a young woman who could watch a whole game without asking: "What are they doing now?" and tell which side won at the end. But that is believed to have been written by Grimm. Young women do not care so much for baseball if they have to buy their own tickets. But if you suggest taking one, she just dots on the game. A woman always gets some enjoyment out of seeing her escort spend money for her, no matter what it is for. It is not always wise to take a young woman to the ball game, no matter how she dots on it. She may not notice the difference when they stop batting up flies and begin the game. She may think the pitcher and catcher are playing against each other, and complain because one of them does not quit and give that cute fellow with such a jaunty air a turn. She may mistake the catcher's breast protector for a porous plaster. But she will notice, with an ever-growing admiration, the grace, sureness and swiftness of the well-conditioned men swiftness of --- Vol. 3. No. 30 Census On Negro. Below are given some interesting facts and figures taken from the recent census bulletin on the Negro. Of the total number of 7,317,929 Negroes 10 years of age and over, enumerated in 1910, 5,192,535, or 71 per cent, were reported as gainfully employed, the percentages for males and females being 87.4 and 54.7, respectively. The corresponding percentages for native whites were 77.9 and 19.2. Of the gainfully employed Negro males 30.9 per cent—almost one-third—were farm laborers, and 25 per cent were farmers. The other leading occupation groups for Negro males, with the percentage of the total represented by each, were as follows: Laborers, building and hand trades, 5.2; laborers, saw and planing mills, 2.9; laborers, steam railroad, 2.7; porters, except in stores, 1.6; draymen, teamsters and expressmen, 1.6; coal mine operatives, 1.2; laborers, porters and helpers in stores, 1.2; waiters, 1.1; laborers, road and street building and repairing, 1.1; cooks, 1; deliverymen, stores, 1; carpenters, 1.

The recent census bulletin on the Negro shows five important facts: First. An increasing tendency toward home ownership among the Negroes. Second. A marked increase in the percentage of school attendance. Third. A pronounced decrease in Third. A pronounced decrease in Officer Smitherman Promoted First Colored Man to Serve City of Tulsa as Plain Clothes Man. John H.

The KITCHEN CABINET For the children who cannot have the heavy rich desserts that the older people enjoy, the following simple dishes will be easy to prepare and most wholesome. Any fruit fluff which is prepared by adding sugar and fruit pulp to the white of an egg and beating well, is a dessert usually attractive to children. Prepare the fruit pulp if an apple by grating or scraping, if a banana by rubbing through a sieve. Snow Pudding.—Dissolve two teaspoonfuls of gelatin in half a cupful of hot water, add three tablespoonfuls of sugar and one and a half tablespoonfuls of lemon juice; stir until the sugar is dissolved. When it is cool enough to be well set, add a little to a time to a well-beaten white of egg, beating until the whole is stiff. Turn into a wet mold and serve with cream. Baked Caramel Custard.—Put two tablespoonfuls of sugar in a small saucepan, place over the heat and stir constantly until the sugar is melted and a light brown in color; add two thirds of a cupful of salded milk and pour the mixture over a slightly beaten egg; stir in a few drops of any flavoring, add a dash of salt, strain into a custard cup and place in a pan of hot water to bake in a slow oven until firm. Orange Trifle—Soften a teaspoonful of granulated gelatin in a tablespoonful of cold water, then stand over hot water until melted; add a half cupful of orange juice and a quarter of a cupful of sugar; pour the mixture on the well-beaten white of an egg and beat thoroughly; cool and beat until spongy; place in a small mold and serve with cream and sugar. Stuff the hollow of an apple which has been cored with dates, figs or nuts and raisins, and bake as usual. The little people find this a most enjoyable dessert, and it is especially wholesome. Serve with cream or plain. A slice of bread with the crusts removed, soaked in any fruit juice and served with cream and sugar is a quick and dainty dessert to prepare for the little people. Many times the left-over meats are as high in food value as at the first When there is a portion of meat left which will slice in trim good looking slices, that is one way of serving it which is generally well liked; but usually the pieces are scrappy and unsightly and the best way is to cut them in uniform pieces and serve them in some kind of a sauce. The meat should be simply reheated in the gravy, as high temperature toughens it. Small pieces may be used for meat pie or shepherd's pie. For the meat pie, put the sliced or diced meat into a baking dish and cover with a thin gravy prepared from meat stock, or a thin white sauce may be used, a few carrots and a bit of grated onion is often added and then over the top spread a layer of biscuit dough rolled *hin*. Bake in a hot oven. For the shepherd's pie a layer of seasoned mashed potato is placed over the top ingread of the biscuit dough. Meat which is too messy for dicing or slicing may be put through the meat chopper and if mixed with potatoes well seasoned and cooked makes a most tasty hash. Do not stir while cooking as that makes the hash pasty. Croquettes of various kinds, of meats are another attractive method of serving left-over meats. Another meat pie which is well liked is prepared as follows: Roll out biscuit dough quite thin, cut out a large biscuit, place some minced meat and gravy in the center, pinch the edges together and bake fifteen minutes in a hot oven. Serve with gravy poured over them. If there is but little meat, peas, chopped cooked carrots or other vegetables may be added to piece it out. Nellie Maxwell Tells of things new and delicious to tempt the Palate Think not upon the past; it is gone. Werely improve the present; it is yours. Go to meet the future with bray, and many heart. While strawberries are still high priced they may be served in small quantities with gratifying results. Beat the white of an egg, add a half cupful of sugar and a cupful of crushed berries, adding them a little at a time until all are beaten in. Use this on ordinary shortcake and see how good a strawberry shortcake it will quantities with grafting results. Beat the white of an egg, add a half cupful of sugar and a cupful of crushed berries, adding them a little at a time until all are beaten in. Use this on ordinary shortcake and see how good a strawberry shortcake it will be. Try it while the season lasts. Stuffed Bermuda Onions.—Peel the onions, cover with boiling water and let cook a half hour. Drain, rinse in cold water and drain again. Remove the centers from the onions, reserving them to serve another day. Chop fine some cooked veal, add bread crumbs, seasoning, salt and pepper and butter. Fill the onions with this mixture, turn in half a cupful of broth and bake in a moderate oven. At the last add a little kitchen bouquet. Fruit Salad—Lay half a banana on a crisp lettuce leaf, pour over it a little lemon juice then slice a few strawberries on that. Lay long thin strips of pineapple over this, dust with powdered sugar and place a spoonful of boiled dressing and whipped cream equal parts beaten together, on top. A very pretty dessert is this: Peel and slice a banana in halves lengthwise, arrange on opposite sides of an oblong dish, now add a generous ball of vanilla ice cream, sprinkle with chopped pecans and serve with a little lemon sirup poured over all. Cocoanut Buns—Add a half cupful of shortening to a pint of flour, one half cupful of sugar, two teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one egg, one-half teaspoonful of salt, and a half cupful of chopped cocoanut. Rub in the shortening, add the other ingredients and milk enough to make a dough to roll out. Brush with milk after cutting and sprinkle with cocoanut and sugar. Fish Pudding—A pound of uncooked fish is required, half a cupful of stale bread crumbs, the same of chopped suet, salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste. A cupful of milk and two eggs.

Many of the little savings which seem too trivial to mention and much beneath the average maid's attention would, if carried out, make a vast difference in the buying of food.

When using a dozen eggs, as it does happen in some families often and in others on occasions, try scraping out the egg shells with a spoon. This will give you the amount of an egg and is well worth saving, especially when eggs are two cents apiece. Now that eggs are cheap, they should be put down for winter. Packed in water glass, they are just as good for any form of baking and will keep a year if carefully done. A quart of water glass added to 12 quarts of boiled and cooled water, put into large stone crocks after the eggs are placed, will keep them perfectly. The eggs should, of course, be perfectly fresh and great care taken not to crack them. Cover the jar and keep in a cool place. One of the common wastes in meat homes is the unscraped mixing bowl. Spatulas may now be bought on the ten-cent counter and a few turns of the wrist with a spatula will scrape out the dish, often saving the amount of an individual cake or gem or biscuit. If round-bottomed mixing bowls are used for dough mixtures, the scraping process will be much shortened, as the spatula, being flexible, will take up every bit of the dough. When apples are used, if the parings are saved and boiled with a little water, then the water added to equal quantities of sugar and boiled, a glass of jelly or two which will be fresh and inviting will be ready for your table. R LADIES OF FA A Department Devoted to the Personal Interests of J Lati N Friends of the Tuls ON PARISIAN STAGE SMART DRESSES ARE BEGINNING TO APPEAR AGAIN. Correspondent Writes of Some of the Prettiest—Military Model in Dark Blue Serge Likely to Be Widely Copied. It seems almost like a crime to speak of smart dresses created for the Parisian stage, but it is really true that, after long months of inaction, the theaters in Paris are beginning to wake up, writes Idalia de Villiers in the Boston Globe. It is, of course, certain that this will not be a brilliant season, or anything approaching that, but still there is a little life to be found in the theaters and some of our leading dressmakers are creating charming models for them. For example, the frocks which Buzenet has recently created for Blanche Tourtain in "La Souris." At least two of these little dresses are ideal models for young girls' wear in the warm summer months. One is an indoor gown composed of embroidered chiffon in a clear shade of oyster-white. The short skirt was round and very wide—just a deep flounce of embroidered chiffon finally gathered in at the waist. The little "baby" corsage was chiefly made of plain white chiffon, and the transparent sleeves were tucked from shoulder to wrist. Round the waist there was a cinture, with long tasseled ends, made of crystal bugle beads, and a delicious touch of vivid rose was introduced on the lining of the high collar. Another gown of the same order was made of desert-dawn-pink taffetas and fine white lace. The taffetas front took the form of a wide, gathered apron, and at the back there were flounces which ran right up from the hem to the waist. A border of tiny chiffon roses bordered the taffetas "apron," and at either side there were quaint pockets. The bodice was almost exaggeratedly simple in design a cross-over, with pointed ends, which THE NEW YORKER A New "Military" Model by Beers, in Dark Blue Serge With Faded Petunia Red Silk Braidings and Silver Buttons. were tied at the back, forming a sort of sash. Still another indoor gown, was composed entirely of iridescent taffetas, which showed delicate shades of pink, blue and silver. The skirt was very short and accordion plaited, and there was a shaped band, like a yoke, over the hips, which was traced over with silver threads in Chinese designs. The cross-over bodice opened in front over a chemisette decorated in similar style and at the waist there was a very large velvet rose in a dull shade of purple. This flower was framed in black satin leaves. The model illustrated was expressed in dark blue serge. The flewing skirt and short coat were trimmed with handsome silk braid in a faded shade of petunia-red silk, and the flat buttons were dull silver. This is a favorite Beers design. The coat, half eton, half bolero, had long sleeves, which ended in curved cuffs, and there was a high military collar turned over with braid.

Choker Collar and Dickey of White Pique. The Model is Worn With a Similarly Tailored Bolero Coat. GLOVES MUST MATCH FROCK Many Novelties Have Been Introduced for the Approval of the Devotee of Fashion. No longer are gloves merely long or short, white, brown or black. We now have reception gloves, gloves for the dance, gloves for lingerie frocks. As this is the season when the silk glove very naturally steps into the foreground, it is the silk glove that is the torerunner in the new models and designs. One glove seen in several exclusive shops is the reception glove in white silk with a series of tucks stitched in black extending up the entire arm, carrying out the black and white idea now so popular. The pointing is in black, not too heavy to accord well with the daintiest afternoon costume. Another novelty is the silk glove of white with a plaited frill running up the arm from the wrist to the glove top. This frill comes in black or in all white. It makes an excellent complement to the airy gowns now so popular, especially in the South. Another silk glove which has struck popular fancy is for the traveling gown, the shopping costume or the tailleur. It is of white with black wrist frill and fine black pointing. The "Queen Elizabeth" as this glove is called, also comes in all white, in putty, sand and the fashionable neutral tints. Many new ideas are shown in the stitching and pointing on the silk gloves. One rich effect is obtained by the combination of black and white stitching, giving a mottled effect. This comes on both long and short silk gloves and is one of those little inspirations that lend distinction to any costume.

WEALTHY COLORED MEN of Oklahoma behind some scheme to create employment for women, boys and girls, they could do wonder, as an invention which if properly financed, is to hundreds of people, and give big returts and it. HUSBANDS—It is not often that a husband is wife too highly, who praises her virtues, never zealous in his anxiety to protect her fraternity, even from even the appearance of a man inconsistent with an ideal womanly woman, but in his demands that all men look upon her purity and perfection, because he does.

WOMEN! "There are very few good women, often nowadays.

If Oklahoma had a few more public spirited Colored men like Mr. A. L. Phillips, who contributed to the expense of The Star last week we would soon be in shape to better fight the cause of the race in this state. IF THE WEALTHY COLORED MEN of Oklahoma would unite and get behind some scheme to create employment for Colored men and women, boys and girls, they could do wonders. One man in Tulsa has an invention which if properly financed would give employment to hundreds of people, and give big returns to those who financed it. RAR EHUSBANDS—It is not often that a husband is found who exalts his wife too highly, who praises her virtues extortionately, who is over zealous in his anxiety to protect her from all scares, and to guard her even from even the appearance of anything contrary to and inconsistent with an ideal womanly woman's nature, or too persistent in his demands that all men look upon her as the acme of womanly purity and perfection, because he does. But even such husbands are found once in a while—and he is not necessarily a fool. IT IS SAID THAT WOMEN have been the cause of the downfall of more men than all of the other causes combined. But it might also be said that MEN have caused the downfall of more women than all other causes combined. The whole question is more or less complex. Like all other questions, it has two sides. Taken either way, it is probably equally true; but most people seem to overlook the fact that when it is true, in either case, that both parties are equally responsible. No woman can possibly cause the downfall of a man unless the man is willing, or gives his consent, and vice versa. But the strange thing about this question is, that so frequently strong men, that are apparently strong men, and seemingly good women by their acts, whether at first from innocent intentions or otherwise, are daily enrolling in life's drama, "The same old story." Such is life. GOOD WOMEN! "There are very few good women," is a remark heard often nowadays. It is so prevalent that it is generally accepted as an axiom with the majority of people. But this is a sad mistake, and an injustice to the female sex. This belief among men, and the mistaken policy among many good women of tolerating the "little improper things," charging it up to oversight or a lack of knowledge, or the culprit who unwittingly offers them has been the cause of more misery and unhappiness than even the war in Europe has caused. It is a part of woman's nature to look pleasant, and be pleasant in her daily life, and we would not have the dear creatures any other way. But no good woman should forget how to look firm and womanly and when to act it. The "little improper things" that women sometimes innocently tolerate are oftentimes inducements for greater insults, and most times directly responsible for the common expression among a common slass of men: "All women are the same," and not infrequently causes a stigma on the reputation of women whose characters are as immaculate as the stars in the great "milky way." If the average woman realized the stern truth of this fact it would be much better for their sex. Of course, there are plenty of bad women—more than a plenty. But let us not forget that there is at least an equal number of bad men. We are inclined to think there are more bad men than there are bad women. But what we want to do is to protect the good women and let the devil take the bad ones. As a rule, the woman of "easy virtue" has an easier time holding her own than the woman who earnestly tries to live a good clean life. What the real MEN of our race need most of all to do is to pay less attention to the bad women of the race and do more to guard and protect our good ones. Any MAN would give his life's blood to protect a good woman, and we want our own good women to know there are plenty of MEN among us. But we also want our good women to prove themselves worthy of our protection.

THE TULSA STAR TYROL THE BEAUTIFUL CHARMING SPOT I$ TOO OFTEN NEGLECTED BY AMERICANS. Mountains and Valleys in Delightful Tangled Jumble—Has Every Sort of Climate Found in the Rest of Europe. Austrian Tyrol, which is today in the public eye because of the strained relations between Italy and Austria, 1s one of Europe's healthtest prov: fnces, In the northern parts the alr drifts pure and cool from the haunts of the glacier and pungent with fir and pine; and in the south It 1s soft with Mediterranean sunshine and fra: grant with orange and lemon. ‘Though Tyrol is a land alldeserv- ing of the artist, the sportsman, the vacationist, and the mentally or phys- feally ailing; though it is @ country where nature has been overlavish with beauty, and where there are more than 350 registered health re- sorts, it, nevertheless, has been com- paratively neglected, more especially by Americans. Austrian Tyrol forms a consider able part of the forbidding and dif- cult boundary that runs between Italy and Austria, It is a barrier more ef- fective than the Vosges barrier be- tween Germany and France, or than the Carpathian barrier between Hun- gary and Galicia, Austrian ‘Tyrol 1s 10,205 square miles of Alpine mountains, etched with a wonderful and intricate design of valleys, While there are fewer lakes in Tyrol than in Switzerland, and while the highest Tyrolese sum- mit, 12,790 feet above the sea level, falls far behind the monarchs of the Swiss Alps, yet the Austrian crown- land yields nothing in charm by com- parison with its neighbor. Among the rock-strewn guilles of Tyrol Dante found the materials for his picture of the entrance to Hell. The main chain of the Alps crosses this region from east to west, and around it on all sides 1s a wild chaos of rock masses. Tyrol, though small, has more sorts of climate within {ts borders than any other part of Europe. There are parts of the crown land where the winters are those of northeast Siberia and the summers are those of Franz Joseph land, There are other parts, more southern, where an Andalusian lan- guor 1s hardly freshened by recur- ring winter, ‘Tyrol is primarily a pasture land. ‘There is a little farming within the sheltered valleys, and some lumber. Ing, but, for the most part, the popu lation depends for support upon tts flocks and herds Moreover, there is a goat's milk cheese prepared by the peasants of ‘Tyrol that equals in its mellow, fra krant beauty any product made of milk, whether from Brie, Neufchatel or Roquefort. The population of the crown land numbers about 900,000, of whom more than half are German-speaking. There Is a large Itallan-speaking population In the valleys of the south. Generals Honor Artist, ‘The French painter Hofbauer, who abandoned a commission to paint Richmond war pictures to join the French army at the outbreak of the war, was recently summoned from the trenches near Solssons to local headquarters. Though only a private, he was recelved respectfully by five generals, who explained that he was among the painters selected to make battle pictures along the front for the future glory of France. Hoffbauer made a brief trip to Paris tor materials and then went to Reims, whence he {s to visit interest- Ing points. When he expressed surprise at the honor accorded him by the generals, one of them replied: “Even in war time France still s the motherland of art.” ‘The Franco-American sculptor, Fran- cols M, L Torretti, who is well known in New York, where he has a atudio, and his wife, who is also a sculptor, have recently been permit- ted to visit the ambulance directed by Dr, Alexis Carrell at Comptegne to make a series of anatomical drawings of the seriously wounded for present: ation to the medical museums for the benefit of future research. Bar Acid.Preofine Gencrete Pine. Patent rights have recently been awarded in Germany on a process for rendering concrete pipes acid-proof. The method consists of coating the in- terior of the tubing with asphalt, a thing which has previously been at- tempted but not with satisfactory re- sults for the reason that the material could not be made to adhere perma- nently, In the new process a certain quantity of asphalt is mixed with the concrete before the pipe is molded. When the cast has been made and the tube dried, the interior is sand-biasted so that the particles of asphalt imbed- ded in the concrete are laid bare, When hot asphalt is subsequently coated over the inner wall of the pipe it immediately combines with the as- phalt particles in the concrete, which serve to securely anchor it in place. ‘There has been much demand for tub- Ing of this kind in industries in which large quantities of materials contain- ing acids must be conveyed through pipe lines.—Popular Mechanics, Much Cheaper. “rm going South for the rheuma- tiom,’ “It's cheaper to get it here."—Bos- ton Transcript.

Some idea of the extent of railway construction in Western Canada can be derived from the fact that the railway mileage in the Province of Alberta has been doubled in three years. The present mileage is 4,097. In all of the settled districts there is ample railway privileges. The rates are governed by a Dominion Railway Commission, and in the exercise of their powers they not only control the rates, giving fair equality to both railway and shipper, but form a court to hear complaints of any who may desire to lodge the same. In the matter of education no better instance of the advancement that is taking place can be given than that found in the information to hand that attendance at the University of Alberta has increased 1,000 per cent in five years, and is now thoroughly representative of all settled portions of the Province. The students in attendance are from sixty-one distinct districts Then as to the prosperity which follows residence in Western Canada, J. E. Edward of Blackie, Alta., gives splendid testimony. He writes, "In the spring of 1907 I first came to this locality from the State of Iowa, Cass County, and located on a quarter section of land near Blackie. Since coming here I have been engaged in mixed farming, which I have found to be more profitable than where I formerly lived. On coming here my worldly holdings were small besides having a family to care for. I now own three quarter sections, sixty head of cattle, twenty head of horses and forty head of hogs, without encumbrance. "During the seven years I have not had a crop fail. My best crop of oats averaged ninety bushels per acre, with a general yield of thirty-five bushels and upward. My best wheat crop averaged forty-three bushels per acre. When I have had smaller yields per acre I have found that it has been due to improper cultivation. The winters here, although at times the weather is cold, I find as a whole are very agreeable. The summers are warm, but not sultry. The summer nights are cool and one is always assured of a good night's rest. My health has been much better, as I do not suffer from catarrh since coming here. I have no land for sale, and am not wishing to make any change, but would be pleased to answer any enquiries concerning this locality."—Advertisement. What It Does.

I had a displacement, bearing down, and backache, until I could hardly stand and was thoroughly run down when I took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

In this humble way the first congregation of colored people of our church in Chicago began. In 1881 Rev. James Thompson was appointed as their first colored priest in charge. In 1883, largely through the munificence of Mr. and Mrs. Tolman Wheeler, St. Thomas' church was built on South Dearborn near Thirtieth street. Mr. Thompson was a man of rare good judgment and affability, and when he retired, in 1896, was succeeded by Rev. A. H. Lealted. Mr. Lealted did faithful work for nine years, and when he left in 1905 there were three hundred communicants in St. Thomas' The present priest in charge, Rev. J. B. Massiah, came to Chicago from Detroit in 1906, and found a loyal congregation which had grown too large for its quarters on Dearborn street. Mr. Massiah's first plan, which Bishop Anderson heartily endorsed, was to get a building that would meet the demands of the growing ingress of the colored people into Chicago from the South. Just a year later Mr. Massiah's coming the present church building at Wabash avenue and Thirty-eighth street was bought from the Calvary Baptist congregation for $20,000. Since then the gains made by this congregation of colored people, all of whom are poor, have been remarkable. Very large confirmation classes have been presented during the last eight years, the aggregate being 631 persons, or an average of nearly 80 persons a year. The number confirmed by Bishop Anderson at his last visitation was 101. The communicants have increased to 900; the Sunday school has an enrollment of 250; the guild has 150 members in its different departments. Few churches have a larger contributing list in proportion to the size of the congregation than this church. The current demands are promptly met, the church is kept in splendid condition, and generous contributions made to missions. There are 70,000 colored persons in Chicago, and St. Thomas' is the only church of our communion to minister to this large and ever growing number. The total present indebtedness on the church property is $9,500, and this sum must be raised by May 1. The Church League for Colored Work in the diocese is acting as the agent for the board of missions in asking aid for the work. In commending the work of the league to the public, Bishop Anderson refers to the needs of the colored people, and of the efforts being made at St. Thomas' to meet them, and says: "It will be seen that this church is not only a beneficiary of missionary enterprise, but also a contributor towards it. They have done well. Let us help those who have shown a willingness and ability to help themselves." Contributions may be sent to the treasurer, Mr. E. P. Bailey, Chicago Savings bank; or to Rev. J. B. Massiah, 3817 Wabash avenue The American sewing machine, oil and tobacco companies that have successfully entered the Chinese market have agents all through the interior. The sewing machine company has even established schools in which Chinese women are taught to embroider on machines. The Negroes are making progress, probably faster than is realized by themselves or their white fellow citizens. A bulletin recently issued by the United States census bureau shows notable advance in many ways. The bulletin itself is the work of Negroes. The Negro population in 1790 was 757,208, or 19.3 per cent of the total population of the nation. In 1910 the Negro population was 9,827,763, or 10.7 per cent of the total. The increase has not kept pace, in proportion, with the white growth, for the reason that so many millions of the latter races have come in by immigration. There has been gratifying growth in religious organization and profession. In 1906 there were 36,770 Negro church organizations with 3,685,697 communicants or members. Between 1890 and 1906 the number of Negro church organizations increased by 56.7 per cent and the number of communicants or members by 37.8 per cent, the increase in Negro population during the same period being 26.1 per cent. As a rule gray horses live the longest and roans next. About sixty-five per cent of the Swiss Federal railways rest on steel tires. In the fiscal year ending March 14, 1914, Canada welcomed 400,000 new settlers. About one-third of the textile goods made in France is the product of female labor. More than 1,600 motorcycles have just been ordered by the Russian army from England. THE TULSA STAR For the exceptional man there must always be the opportunity to rise just as far as his genius will carry him; in the second place, if a great mass of people is to be uplifted, they must have leaders of their own fitted to command because of their intellectual powers and their specially advanced training. They must have intelligent and well-taught clergymen, teachers, physicians and lawyers, to say nothing of the other professions and of the need of skilled insurance company managers, bankers, etc. These are not often to be obtained from the common schools, particularly if these schools are mere pretenses, not schools, as are so many in the southern states. This need has recently been well expressed in the first report of the general education board, where it is pointed out that if "primary and secondary Negro schools are to have good teachers, principals and supervisors, provision must be made for the higher training of these instructors and supervisors." At the same time the report points out that the "mere attempt to deliver the traditional college curriculum to the Negro does not constitute a higher education," and urges the establishment of college curricula which shall be adapted from time to time to the needs, environment, and capacity of the Negro student. With this we are in the main heartily agreed, and in so far as the opposition to the higher education of the Negro is based on a belief that subjects are taught him which can have no practical value for him, this program would properly meet the objection. For the exceptional man of Professor Just's type no one ought, however, to fence in any field of learning. He should be free to roam wherever he will in our choiceest educational pastures. Anything else would spell folly and, what is worse, a gross national injustice which would merely have to be stated to carry its own condemnation. Whenever opposition to throwing open the doors of our educational institutions is based merely on color prejudice and a belief in another person's alleged inferiority, it most be attacked without a moment's delay. Professor Just and his peers of his race are the most effective answer to those who would go back to the educational dark ages.—New York Evening Post. E. B. Baldwin gave a formal dinner here to eleven of his father's former slaves, according to a Marshallville (Ga.) dispatch to the New York World. He himself remembers the closing days of the Confederacy. He and his brother, W. P. Baldwin, wore aprons and served as butlers. The guests, six old "mammies" and five Negro men, were ushered into the large dining room and seated at tables. The dinner had been directed by the best cook in South Georgia. W. P. Baldwin offered a prayer of thanksgiving that brought tears to the eyes of all. One of the oldest "mammies" delivered a temperance lecture, and when she sat down the sister sitting next to her said: "Shaw! I drink whisky when ebber I gits it. I went to Miss Johnson's recently and ast her for a drink and she gibs me a tumbler plumb full. If it hadn't been for manners I'd ast her annudder." As they said good-by the oldest of the men expressed the sentiments of the guests: "Ef I allus felt as good ez I do now, I'd nebber want to go ter heben." "We Negroes are under a great handicap," recently declared Jesse Rees Europe, a musical composer of note. "For 'The Castle Lame Duck' I receive only one cent a copy royalty and the phonograph royalties in like proportion. A white man would receive from six to twelve times the royalty I receive, and compositions far less popular than mine, but written by white men, gain for their composers vastly greater rewards. I have done my best to put a stop to this discrimination, but I have found that it was no use. The music world is controlled by a trust, and the Negro must submit to its demands or fail to have his compositions produced. I am not bitter about it. It is, after all, but a slight portion of the price my race must pay in its at times almost hopeless fight for a place in the sun. Some day it will be different and justice will prevail." California is unusual among the salt-producing states in that the great bulk of her salt comes from sea water, being obtained by solar evaporation on San Francisco bay, near Long Beach and near San Diego. Many of the Arabian peasant population of Palestine have emigrated to North and South America, and the Mohammedan population from the environs of Jerusalem is beginning to emigrate. The lack of suitable employment is the cause of this exodus. The noted Order of the Golden Fleece is a military one instituted by Philip the Good, duke of Burgundy, in 1429, on the occasion of his marriage with the Portuguese Princess Isabella.

"Along about day one morning three or four of Mosby's men, under command of young George Slater, the daredevil Irish cavalryman of the Baltimore Slater family, who had joined Mosby at the beginning of his career, because there didn't seem to be enough danger and fighting for him in the regular cavalry under Stuart, dropped in on me at my home at the end of a long suburban street. They were on one of their daring scouting adventures and, being hungry as wolves, stopped by to have a bite with me. "Of course, anything I had was at their service, and so out of bed we all hopped, routed out the cook and along about sunrise sat down to a comfortable breakfast. "In Leesburg we usually felt happy at seeing the Confederate uniform, so we lingered over our meal, swapping stories of every kind. George Slater, who was rull of all kinds of plausible and entertaining yarns, had just told some Irish tale, for whose truth he pledged his patrimony, and I had just started in to tell one that taxed the hearer's credulity even more, when the door from the kitchen opened and in stole little Julius Caesar, a small negro boy of about eight years, who was assistant to the cook. "Doct'r Clagett, thar's a—" commenced Julius Caesar. "Don't bother me!" I bawled at him, irritated at being interrupted in the story that, I flattered myself, would top that of young Slater's. "Shut up!" "And then I continued with my tale. But hardly had I progressed half a dozen sentences when Julius Caesar broke in again. "'Doct'r Clagett, thar's a—' "If you say another word I'll chop your head off!" I roared at the little picklanny and then proceeded with my story. But young Slater, who was full of Irish acumen and who, being in command, fully realized the danger of his position, interrupted me himself. "Look here, doctor," he said, 'we're in the very paws of the enemy here; hadn't you better hear what this ancient Roman ruler has to say before you trump my last story? We soldiers don't want to get gobbled up." "At this I straightened up; it hadn't occurred to me before of the hazardous position my guests were in. "Here, Julius Caesar,' I said, 'what is it you want to tell me? Out with it!" "Julius Caesar scrubbed one dirty bare foot against the shank of his other leg and shyly stuck a dirty finger into a dirty mouth. "An O How often you he many such men there less it is!

Dat's all I wanted ter tell yer. "That ended that breakfast! 'Come, men!" cried George Slater, and was through the door in a wink. Puryear, who sat on the side of the table opposite the door, instantly resolved himself into a human snowplow. He dived across the table, heading straight for that door and shoveled aside on either hand a venerable aunt and a dignified cousin who was visiting me. He didn't stop to apologize, but with the others bolted for the rack where their horses were tied. "We hastened to the window. Sure enough the Union cavalry were coming at a hot gallop—and hardly fifty yards away! Luckily the horses of George Slater's men were but loosely tied. It took but a moment for those veterans—young in years, old in service—to vault in their saddles and away. Down the road they sped, the Yankees, outnumbering them a hundredfold, vainly popping at them.

A Cinch. Ashamed of Them: VARIETY OF POSTAGE STAMPS Government Makes Them of Three Kinds, to Suit the Conditions of Weather. Sometimes you take precautions to place a few postage stamps inside a note book, where you would think they could not possibly stick together by carrying the book in your pocket, because there seems to be too much thickness for the body heat to penetrate, and yet you discover them, perhaps only a few hours later, stuck so firmly together that they are spoiled. Then again, you may carry postage stamps about for many days or weeks and they never stick together. And the explanation of this is that the stamps that stick are probably "winter" stamps. This is because the government makes three brands of postage stamps, "summer," "winter" and "intermediate." The intermediaite stamps are supposed to be used during the spring and fall, or during the seasons when it is neither extremely cold or excessively hot. This does not mean that the government printing department makes these stamps with any different design or color. The seasonable part of stamps is all in the glue, or gum, that is used to back them. For the summer sale the gum used is slightly harder than for the other sort. This is so it will not melt as readily with body heat or room heat, and is intended to assist in preventing them sticking together. In winter such hard gum is not necessary, and again, too hard gum in the cold months will frequently crack right through the paper of the stamp, spoiling it. And so a thinner, lighter gum is used, which is more pliable, not so apt to crack with the cold and is better all around. Of course, for spring and autumn the intermediate grade of gum is used, of a consistency between the hard of summer and the thin of winter. Styles.

Failure to unite in a movement to bring peace to Mexico "within a very snort time," it was announced in a statement telegraphed to Generals Villa Carranza, Zapata and Garza and others would constrain the United States to decide "what means should be employed" in order to save the people of the southern republic from further devastations of internal warfare. The text of the president's statement follows: "For more than two years revolutionary conditions have existed in Mexico. The purpose of the revolution was to rid Mexico of men who ignored the constitution, republic and used their power in contempt of the right of its people, and with the promise of the United States military and generously sympathized. But the leaders of the revolution in the very hour of their success have disagreed and turned their arms against one another." "All professing the same objects, they are nevertheless unable or unwilling to co-operate. A central authority at Mexico City is no sooner set up than it is undermined and its authority denied by those who were executed." "Mexico is apparently no hurrier a solution of her tragical troubles than she was when the revolution was first kindled and she has been swept by civil war. She has been killed by her fields lie unseeded, her work cattle are confiscated for the use of the armed factions, her people flee to the mountains, her people wailing bloodshed, and no man seems to Bourke Underwood & Underwood Villa. see on the way to peace and settled order.

Their people cry but for food and will present hate as much as they fear every man in their country or out of it, who stands between them and their daily bread.

As specially applied to weddings, there is a suspicion that the throwing of old shoes—or new slippers, for all that—had at first a significance which would surely be most objectionable to twentieth-century brides. It seems to have been a token of the complete subjection of the bride to her lord and master. In the East a shoe or a slipper was publicly borne at the head of the bridal procession in indication of the bride's subjection, and at some Jewish weddings the bridegroom used to strike the bride a blow with his shoe as a sign that she was thereafter to be submissive to his will. Among the Nestorians it was the custom for the bridegroom to kick the bride, and for her to remove from his foot the shoe with which he had kicked her. To this day there is a common custom in Russia for the bridegroom on his wedding night to require the bride to pull off his boots. In one of them is a whip, and in the other a gift. If she pulls off first the one containing the whip, she gets a stroke from the lash, and is to expect floggings thereafter, but if the gift is first disclosed her married life will be happy. It is related of Martin Luther that once, after performing the wedding ceremony for a couple, he took off the bridegroom's shoe and placed it upon the bride's pillow, as a sign that she should in all things and at all times be subservient to her husband.

BIG REWARD FOR INVENTIONS British Government Is Encouraging Ideas Tending to Improve Development of Army Equipment. That there are handsome rewards for those who are able to devise improvements in guns and machinery is shown in sums that have been paid in fees to inventors at army ordnance factories for the year ending March, 1914. No less than £4,000, for instance, was paid to Col. C. L. Holden, late superintendent of the royal gun and carriage factories, for various inventions and improvements connected with ordnance mountings, machine tools, etc., in addition to £500 paid on another account; while £2,850 was paid to Mr. W. T. Thomson, chemist and manager, respectively, of the Royal Gunpowder factory, for improvements in the manufacture of nitrocellulose and accompanying apparatus, in addition to a previous £1,150. Smaller amounts, such as £250 to Mr. W. H. Turton, manager of the Royal Gun factory, for improved machines for the manufacture of ordnance; £100 to Mr. W. Lambert for a process for testing steel bullets; £25 each to William Rogers and E. F. Pullar for labor-saving and improved tools for use at the Royal Carriage department, and £20 to Assistant Foreman S. Capon, Royal Gun Factory forges, for improved muffle for use in forges, have also been paid.-Tit-Bits Aviators' Safety Parachutes The energies of practically all the inventors of parachutes for airmen have been directed towards the development of a device for the airman alone, the aeroplane itself being allowed to drop to earth unhindered. Parachutes for the whole aeroplane have just been designed by a French inventor. Two folded parachutes, contained in cone-shaped receptacles, are attached to the wing3 as near the ends as possible. By means of a simple mechanism, operated by the movement of a small hand lever, these parachutes are pushed out of the containers, after which they are claimed to open freely, no matter in what manner the aeroplane may be falling. All the airman has to do is to hang on to the aeroplane. Why She Went to Church.
