The original log book of the famous Monitor, covering the period of her engagement with the Confederate ironclad Merrimac in Hampton Roads on March 9, 1862, is preserved among the historic records of the navy department. The restoration of the log to the department was due to Captain Louis Stodder of the United States revenue cutter service and an officer on the Monitor during her entire service. For years he treasured the log among his most valuable possessions, but as the infirmities of age increased he desired to see it placed where its preservation might be assured. Hence it was that he forwarded it to the library of the navy department. The entries cover dates from Feb. 26 to the end of 1862 and tell of the little "cheese box on a raft" foundering off Cape Hatteras on Dec. 31, 1862, when Stodder was acting master, and of her engagements with the Confederate batteries at Sewall's Point, Hampton Roads, and at Fort Darling, in the James river. But by far the most interesting concern the fight with the Merrimac. Among the entries on Sunday, March 9, 1862, are the following: Drove Sharpshooters Out of a Barn. Numerous crack shots of the Confederate army had lodged in a barn between the lines of the two armies on the forenoon of the third day at Gettysburg. Their marksmanship was very annoying to the Federals, and the Fourteenth Connecticut infantry was dispatched on the successful mission of driving them out. Not only did they accomplish the gallantly, but in the afternoon of the same day they aided in repulsing the charge of Pickett's men and captured five stands of colons. The death of Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green at New Orleans, was reported in the daily press. There was no confirmation made of the report that he was lynched at Florida for refusing to ride in a Jim Crow car. Arlington Cemetery. That silent spot, alas, may weep Beyond Potomac's bawl. Five miles to the steep sleep. The loyal and the brave— No clouds of smoke to dim the eye, No roar of shot or shell, No onward march, no battlecry, On plains where thousands fell. No warlike blast or roll of drum, No lonely watch to tread. Ah, generations yet to come Shall praise the fallen dead! Year after year, how grand the scene, By loyal hands that's true The trees are strewn with garlands green Of those who wore the blue. HARRY W.

The world has been full of bloodshed and carnage and the horrid rapine that goes with war, but among the battles innumerable there have been but few that greatly influenced the world's history or decided the fate of nations. Creasy in his standard work on the "Decisive Battles of the World" names but fifteen of them between Marathon and Waterloo, and of all that were fought before and since those epoch making dates none has been greater or more decisive than Gettysburg. The town of Gettysburg is a peaceful little place, brightened and freshened somewhat since the wartime, to be sure, but only slightly larger than then and not very different in outward appearance. Several things about the battleground impress the uninitiated visitor. First is its vast extent. It embraces twenty-five square miles. You may ride over it all day and not see it all. In its monuments and its carefully marked sites of interest it is the most remarkable battlefield of the world THE SUMMIT OF LITTLE ROUND TOP. Here, scattered over the hills and fields, are no fewer than 600 monuments and tablets. Most of them are of elaborate and artistic design, costing all the way from a few hundred to a hundred thousand dollars. The spot of culminating emotions, however, is not the dreadful field of carnage, but the peaceful, beautiful, national cemetery where lie, Under the sod and the dew, Waiting the judgment day, the thousands of brave men, named and nameless. On this spot, within the great semicircle of graves, Lincoln pronounced that most wonderful of orations, simple, brief, eloquent, classic, heart moving--that oration that will live as long as the English language is spoken and whose closing words are engraved on the great national monument which marks the spot where it was delivered.

Mrs. Charles Colby Supt. of the Sunday School and Mrs. John Matthews. Solos appropriated to the occasion were sung by Mrs. George Harry Adams and Miss Ethel McDonald. The services conducted Sunday mark the third epoch in the construction of this much needed edifice, and from the manner in which these were carried forward a new spirit of optimism has been aroused which speaks well for the future and early completion of the building. The many commendatory remarks heard on every side were well earned by all who took part in these exercises. Mrs. Beverly V.

Enthusiastic exercises, sweet singing, animating addresses, inspiring incidents will mark the occasion. The Minneapolis Sunday Forum will hold a special meeting. Rev. M. W. Withers, Pastor. The Crisis Fund seems to be a St. Paul affair. We were only informed about this great event last Monday. However, we give it notice, as The Star has always been a booster for "The Crisis," and if the entertainment is a success Minneapolis must make it. Let us do it. Atty. Williams, a Negro, representing himself as a Federal agent assigned to white slave cases, also a brother of Bert. Williams the famous Negro comedian, is being investigated by the Police authorities. He has been lecturing on "The Crawling of a Worm." Although on the lecture platform, he has burnt his bridges behind him, and does not care for mention in our columns. We hope that he may stand investigation creditably, but his record here leads us to think that our early birds may get the worm.

F., called at the Star office on May 24, to ascertain the facts which caused the publication of an article in our columns concerning one of its members. They were given the desired information and a written statement to the Lodge. After thanking the Editor for their pleasant reception, the committee left, assuring us that they were grateful for the information, and that proper action would be taken. We have every reason to believe that proper investigation will be made, and that our effort for the good of St. Anthony's Lodge will be effective and appreciated. May other fraternities follow their example. The Men's Episcopal Club will give a picnic at Antler's Park on July 10. Details to follow later. CITY FEDERATION MEETING.

GIVEN BY HAMPTON'S GOOD WORK. Annual Report of Principal Frissell Shows School's Achievements. The annual report of Hampton institute, being the forty-fifth since the founding of the school, has been prepared, printed and distributed by the principal, Dr. Hollis B. Frissell. The report covers twenty pages of regular magazine size paper. It is exhaustive in detail and deals with every phase of the inner workings of the institution. No one can read it without being deeply impressed with the tremendous amount of work which the officials of the school have to accomplish in order to keep the various departments up to a high degree of efficiency. Dr. Frissell pays a high tribute to the home in referring to the pioneer work of General S. C. Armstrong, founder of Hampton institute. He says: The most effective educational institution the world has yet produced is the home. In the home the problems to be solved are intensely real, and the solution of them means the power to solve more problems of a similar sort. This power is education. When the founder of Hampton institute was confronted with the problem of educating men and women but lately freed from slavery, a race without the traditions of self supporting, self respecting family life, he consciously or unconsciously adopted the home as the model for his school, and he chose that type of home where each member contributes his share of service to the common need. Such a home differs widely from the ordinary school. In the home the motives for its activities are for the most part immediate and apparent; in the school conditions are necessarily more artificial and the prescribed tasks are, from the pupil's point of view, often purposeless. Only purposeful activity has educational value. From the first he insisted that the work incident to the daily life should be done by the students themselves, not merely because his students were poor and must work their way, but because of the educational value of the work itself. The enrollment for 1913 is 839, representing thirty-three states and five foreign countries. The total number of students enrolled in the trade school for the year is 875. Of these 180 are taking full trade courses. One hundred and twenty-four academic students came to the trade school a portion of the time for industrial training, and thirty-three agricultural students spent the three winter months taking special courses related to their work. The amount paid to students in wages this year amounted to $18,682.21. The largest single piece of work which the trade school has done during the past year has been the erection of Clarke hall. The building was begun in March, 1012, and was opened for use February, 1913. The contract price was $26,142.77, and, with the exception of putting on the slate roof, making some plaster cornice (industries not taught here) and a portion of the furniture, all the work was done by students. This called for the services of bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, sheet metal workers, steamifters, plumbers, cabinetmakers, electricians and painters. Mr. Ludlow of the firm of Ludlow & Peabody, who designed the building, says that the brick work in it compares favorably with similar work around New York city, and some of the local builders have pronounced it the best piece of brick work on the peninsula. Besides completing this special contract, the trade school has kept up the repairs on the school buildings and done work for parties outside the school in seventeen states. This includes furniture, turned wood, reverse gears, steam separators, grate bars, wheelbarrows, wagons and trucks. IMPORTANT COMING EVENT. Features of Program For Closing Week at Fisk University. Nashville, Tenn.-The school year at Fisk university, in this city, will soon come to a close. Active preparations are being made for the annual commencement, which will begin on Wednesday, June 11. Five members of the graduating class have been selected to take part on the program of the public exercises. The commencement address will be delivered by Dr. Booker T. Washington, a member of the board of trustees. Aside from the general interest which is always manifested in the events of commencement week, there are two features which are attracting considerable attention. The most important of the two is the trustees' report with reference to the endowment fund which the institution has been for the past two years struggling to raise. Every effort is being put forward to complete the fund of $800,000 by June 1. The other feature centers in the work of the junior class, which is preparing to present a play entitled "The Lion and the Mouse." Class day exercises, the usual receptions and farewell meetings by students and faculty will hold the attention of every one throughout the week. The usual large number of out of town visitors is expected. The students and local alumni association have already given a jubilies concert for the benefit of the endowment fund. The concert program of music was participated in by the university Glee club, a large chorus and several noted solists. The school is widely known for the musical ability of its students, and the May jubilies concert fully sustained the musical reputation of this pioneer institution for higher education.

We are informed of the expected advent of a new paper—"to fill the long felt want," etc. The Star desires a competitor, and there is need of another paper. There are many disgruntled subscribers of ours, who are miserably deserted, and they are due a medium for their desired publicity. We have cut off all who are not bona fide subscribers, and do not boast of such big circulation, but have reached through hard struggles, a stage where merit is recognized, and people pay for The Star and get their money's worth. As a legal publication it has stood the test. May our young rival enter the field prepared to meet us as a business competitor. We clip from all newspapers current news and give credit for editorials, that our readers may have all the news that's fit to print, giving necessary space to every one. The new publication is The Weekly Standard, edited by D. F. Whittaker, formerly at Atlanta, Ga., now associated with The Weekly Visitor Publishing Company. We wish him his share of success. The Twin City Star has the exclusive use in this city of the Afro- American news service of the American Press Assn., edited by Mr. N. B. Dodson of N.

The following lines are dedicated to Mrs. Louisa S. Duvall, who passed away June 6, 1910 at Los Angeles, Cal. Thou, the most lovable friend, we ever knew, We are thanking our Lord that to us he loaned you; He knew you did not come to stay Yet we are grateful, you passed our way. Just like a flower, you came and went, But the spiritual fragrance has left its scent; It seems to encircle us at will— To keep you living with us still. Thy sacred Christian teaching in our hearts did sow, Yea, many years before thou didst go. In the home thou didst rule with love so true; These, Dear Friend, are the memories of you. Thinking of you, Dear, just a sigh and a tear, Wishing so much that you were here. Oh! what a sinful wish indeed— Knowing the Blessed Christ, of you had need. Can we forget the day the end drew near? Thou didst bid us not shed one tear. And with placid upturned face, thou the reaper did embrace Oh! Thou most beautiful woman of grace. Mrs. Carrie A. Ford, Minneapolis, Minn. 208 Hennepin Avenue MINNEAPOLIS, MINN. BE UP-TO-DATE BROTHERS Years ago, New York butter and Ohio, Wisconsin and Missouri Beer, were known to be the best, and swell folks always had them on their table. No one wants New York butter now, because Minnesota is the best, but some people stick to the old idea on beer. A SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN. Hon. John S. Wise, of Virginia, is dead. He was always a Negro's friend. After his defeat as candidate for Governor in his native state, he went to New York, and became famous as a lawyer. He was a member of the Union League Club, the most exclusive Republican Club in the country, and it was through his personal efforts and public statements that Negro waiters were retained there, when it was almost certain that they were to be supplanted by white men. Like Gen. Mahone he had been the Negro's worst enemy, but he followed the Readjuster movement, and became their best friend. He was a brilliant scholar, an able jurist, a forceful orator and one among the last of that line of cultured gentlemen, known as the First Families of Virginia.

Edgerton Copyright 1915 by American Press Association ELLO, there, comrade! Thought I'd come To one more camp before I'm mustered out and pitch my tent What's that you say? You fought with Grant And marched with Sherman too? Yes, I'm Bill Jones of Company K. But who the deuce are you? Do I remember Mission Ridge? I ought to; but, old scout, My eyes must be a trifle dim— I can't quite make you out. You're who—Bob Henry? Not old Bob? By hokey! But you are! You derned old ornery sea cook! Say, Bob Henry, put her thar! Where have you been? I hain't seen you Since back in sixty-six. I thought you looked familiar, but My old eyes play me tricks. Well, this IS a reunion, Bob. I lost all track of you. I thought you must be dead. What's that? You thought that I was too? Well, we are lively dead ones, Bob. They'd find that out, you bet, If Uncle Sam should call on us. We've some fights in us yet. Come on; let's talk it over, Bob. It kind of seems us two Should have a heap of things to say That are long overdue. I think that it will take a week To get my system free. We'll fight again with Grant and march With Sherman to the sea. PATRIOTISM. In ceasing to remember their martyrts the Greeks became corrupt and in their corruption found their grave. That our country might escape a like fate I would advocate the observance in our churches and in our homes of Lincoln's and Washington's birthdays as sacredly and as conscientiously as our religious festivals are observed. Had I the power I would ordain that the period intervening between the first and last of these days be set aside in our schools and churches, in our political and civic clubs, in our fraternal and literary organizations, for a review of our nation's rise and growth, for a comparison between it and other nations, for a consideration of whatever dangers may threaten the commonwealth and of the means to be employed in overcoming them, to the end that the nation might thus annually experience a revival of patriotism. — Rabbi Krauskopf.

The most beautiful thought that has been born of the Memorial day celebration is that of sending a flower laden boat to sea, in tow of a steamer, that it may be cast off and consecrated to the sailormen who have given their lives for their country. The Greeks had a ceremony almost similar, but it was broken up by one of the heroes when he rescued Andromeda. It involved the sacrifice of a beautiful woman every year, and the fighting men of the time wouldn't "stand for that." BRAVERY. Then to side with Truth is noble when we share her wretched crust. Ere her cause bring fame and profit and 'tis prosperous to be just; Then it is the brave man chooses, while the coward stands aside.

This demoralizing force eminates from all sources controlled by the white man—the daily newspapers, the tribunal of “Justice” and even the legislative body of the nation is con- stantly “suggesting” to the world and to the Negro that the race of black men are inferior, incapable and un- worthy the rights and opportunities accorded the lighter-hued people of the earth. So long and so thorough has this false doctrine assailed him from every side, that he is inclined to doubt himself, and it is not without difficulty and timidity that he at- tempts to break the chains of ex- ploded theories and wornout tradi- tions. Were it ordained from God, as is frequently the contention, that the Negro is inferior, a menial, a hewer of wood and a drawer of water it would be unnecessary to engage the wealth, learning and centuries of civilization in the futile effort of those who seek to “help God” keep him so. ‘That the black race, advantages the same, is mentally, morally, or physically inferior to any other race of humans, has been time and time again refuted, and by concrete ex- ample proven utterly without sub- stantial foundation. The white races of Europe—the founders of modern civilization—were not always in the ascendency, nor will they always be. In obedience to the natural law—the perpetually revolving cycle of man’s destiny—races rise and fall. Unpre- judiced history records, that in the dim and distant past, the present powerful and jealous masters of the earth, were wild, skin clad savage tribes, when the black man enjoyed a cftvilization, a knowledge of the arts and sciences, far surpassing even that of today. ‘The Negro himself, as a freeman, 1s largely responsible for his present predicament. In the first place he lacks organization, and seemingly the desire to organize properly and etfec- tively; secondly, he is entirely too willing to accept a compromise, while others, less entitled, demand and get fall measure, The American nation respects a fighter, and in the same de- gree despises a coward. Contending and not cringing, unity and not fac- tions, these, combined with the edu- cation which teaches that human su- periority or inferiority 1s reckoned ac- cording to the degree of human ef- fictensy, and not by the amount of coloring matter in the skin, are the ultimate means by which the Negro in America will be emancipated trom ‘@ second slavery, in many respects more galling and oppressive than the first.—The Colored (Petersburg) Vir- ginian.) In this great city of ours, wo need ‘more consecrated men and women to throw out the life line to rescue the perishing souls. Rev. T. J. Carter, Pastor Bethesda Baptist Church. ‘This is true, we need men like Rev. Carter. He has been a worthy min. ister and should be supported in his good work, SCHOOL YEAR AT TUSKEGEE ENDS Great Throngs of Visitors En- Joy Inspiring, Program.

Of equally instructive value to the farmers was the speech of William Burke on the “Economie Production of Pork." By actually dipping a pig and smoking meat on the stage, this Young man demonstrated to the audt- face how to raise pork on paying Jasia in the southland. As be told bow fmuch and what feeds to give the ant imal to produce a good animal, to pro- face a good bam and a good “mid {ing,” the farmers sat up and took notice, as the saying goes, for they were discovering new methods where by pig ratsing tn the south could be fone on a paying basis.
