Judge Edward Osgood Brown, who
has always been an incorporating
champion of the civil and the political
rights Of the Afro-American, is firmly
convinced that the views as expressed
through the columns Of The Broad
Ak in reference to the cringing atd-
tude which Prof. Booker T. Washing
ton las assumed in relation to the
manhood rights Of the Negro are en-
inently right or correct. With all Of
his judicial labors and duties Judge
Brown finds the time each Saturday

NEW THING IN GOLF BALLS.
Remade by Catfish with q Jonah Fin
iSh They Are Vastly In
proved.

Fishermen in the lower waters Of the
Blue and along the Missouri In the vi
c1nity Of the Blues mouth, complain
OF an ailment Of the catfish which
seems to be general. II was first sus-
pected, says the Kansas City Journal,
that yellow fever is mixing things
with the cat water tribe, but on inves-
tieation 1t Is found that the trouble Is
all due TO overdoses Of golf balls. On
tracing the matter up the supply Of
halls Ii found to come from the Elm
Ridge links, where the players have
phenomenal luck in losing balls In the
creek
At first the fishermen were indignant
and their wrath was developed by an
enterprising snitch, who urged an in
junction against the Elm Ridge club
In general and the bum players in par
ticular. This promised good lawsuit,
when, unfortunately, q alderman dis
covered that q catfish full Of golf balls
Is worth more than q straight cat
This changed materially the financial
favor Of the case. Then It was dis
covered that q golf ball remsde by Q
catfish, thus imparting . Jonah finish,
~ well as flavor, adds 10 the value Of
the ball by improving its going quail
ties. This starts new ball on the
market and upsets the sniteh In his
calculations

COYOTE CAME TO TOWN.
covardly Provler of the Plains In
vades the City in Search
of Prey.

II Is the usual run Of things to find
the coyote out on the plains far from
the haunts Of man. At sight OF man
he fees and hides, never by any chance
facing his enemy. The coyote has been
dubbed king Of towards. 1t was a most
unheard of occurrence, then, when a
short time ago a coyote was found In
the back yard of Mr.. F. Berth, in the
heart of the business district OF San
Francisco. For some time Mr.. Berth
noticed that his chickens were disap-
nearing and there had been some talk
of a strange yellow dog that the Jap
anese settlement next door had seen
sinking out Of his yard, but such an
idea as the yellow dog being a coyote
never presented itself. until the poor
little coyote was found in a vat, where
he had fallen trying TO make his es-
cape. He had broken his leg. The poor
wild thing was treated kindly. how
ever, and will probably be sold to the
Chutes. the geological garden Of San
Francisco. But the coyote in captivity
has never been a success. He never
loses his cowardice and such a thing
as teaching him tricks is out Of the
question.

SHEEP BRING GOOD PROFIT
Farmers Of the United States Have
Lucrative Field Opened
to Them

An ofncial report Of the department Of
commerce and labor declares that for
years to come there will be more money
In sheep than in any other agricultural
product and that the American farmer,
above all others, is in q position to
profit by this condition
The reason why sheep raising Is to be
30 profitable is to be found in the fact
that the fiocks Of the world are declining
at an alarming rate. In little more
than 80 years, or since 1873, this decline
shows q loss Of no fewer than $1,000, 900
head, an average of more than 5000, 900
a year. At the present time the Ameri-
can farmer has the bulk Of the sheep
trade with Great Britain, but he Is not 8
factor In the mutton market, and last
year he furnished only three-tenths Of
one per cent. OF the wool imports OF
Great Britain.
The British trade in sheep imports last
year was 3S2,24O. and Of these the United
States supplied 294,S04. But while the
British imported 3,530,65s. hundred
weights of mutton in 1904, the American
farmer supplied only 1920 hundred
weights of this vast amount Great
Britain imported 314,46S.016 pounds Of
wool last year, but bought only 1887
$50 pounds from the American farmer.
II may thus be seen what an immense
field of trade, even with one nation
alone. Is open to American enterprise
In q single agricultural product. Argen-
tina, Australia and New Zealand largely
supplied the British trade In mutton and
wool last year.

The Blue Book, or coIored Peoples

The Blue Book, or Colored Peoples
Business Directory, compiled by D. A.
Bethea, has made its appearance. 1t
consists Of 40 pages, and contains the
names and the business addresses of
the majority Of the Afro-Americans
who are engaged in the various lines
Of business and professions in this
city.
1t will supply a long felt want in
this respect, and Mr. Bethea deserves
much credit in producing it. It is
well worth the price which 1t sells for
so cents.
It Is too bad that the defective press

Church Chimes.

II was Sunday morning and the bell
ringer had just finished ringing the
chimes that called the godly to church.
BELL ringing is a science. Did you
know that?" he said. 1T is called cam
panology, and there are abtruse and
technical terms in 1t, like Kent treble
bob 'Stedman sinques.' double court
bob lodges 'noils' and 'stingoes-
Each OF these terms defines a certain
phase or kind of bell ringing. In Eng
land there is a society, the Central
Council Of Bell-ringers, that every
campanologist desires ardently to be-
long to. May be you think bell ringing
is simple? Do you know what a peal
is? A peal in ringers parlance, is a
series of 5000 changes rung upon q
chime, no change occurring more than
once"

Rev. A. Arnold Rose and the Negro.
The Editor OF The Broad Ak.
Sir:-In the Chicago Tribune Of
Nov. appeared an article, an ac-
count Of a sermon where the minister
said that he is convinced that the one
great mistake the President has made
in dealing with the South is the ap-
pointment of Negroes to ONCE. The
time will come, he says, when the col
ored man is prepared to hold ONCE!
but not now. II the President would
allow the Negro to occupy himself
with training himself to become a
good citizen, It would be far better.
What does this reverend sir think
Of the Negro Of the present day? II
the Negro is not qualified to hold OF
fee, then the white man is disqual-
ifed, because 1t has only taken forty
two years for the colored man to CON-
pete with the white man in any trade
or profession, and the white man had
a thousand years the start II COL
cred property holder does not pay his
taxes, his property is confiscated the
same as the white man. Now why
cannot he hold an office the same as
the white man? The minister does not
know that the colleges Of this country
are turning out Negroes who have
made such averages so as to leave the
white students far behind. He does
not know that the Negroes in public
office to-day are the best the race can
afford. They are as smart as any
other man who has held the same po-
sition. Let the minister take bank
note Of any denomination and on II
he will see the name Of ]. W. Ly-
ons. a Negro. Who was one OF the
first to fall in the Revolution? A Ne
gro. Who offered their services to go
to Cuba because a white regiment was
appealing to come home? Negroes.
In every walk in life the Negro stands
with the white to do the same thing
and do it better. Let the Rev. A.
Arnold Rose read the history Of the
Negro race before he makes any state
ment in regard to their holding
ONCE. Lloyd I. II. smith.

An Up-to-Date Book Party
The hostess informed US that she
had spent weeks in preparing for this
entertainment, and we believed her
when we gazed upon the 80 objects,
each bearing the name Of an author.
The title of the book represented was
to be guessed and written on the card
opposite the number the object bore.
For instance, The Eternal City, by
Hall Game, was represented by a map
Of Rome; The Virginian," by a pic
ture of George Washington, with
Owen Wister written on one corner;
THE Speckled Bird" by Augusta
Evans Wilson, by a white bird COW
cred with specks; BLACK Rock" was
easy-a black stone on the table. with
Common on it. A spray Of blue flowers
recalled that Van Dyke had written
"The Little Blue Flower" The
Three Musketeers" was represented by
three toy soldiers. Kiplings Seven
Seas" was recognized by seven C's
written on white paper and pinned on
the wall. THE Octopus" by William
Norris, was a large picture Of that fish.
Other books represented were: "a
Paste Board Crown" by Clara Morris;
boy" Corelli; I'VE Two" Edna Ly-
all; THE Duet" Kipling; The Gen.
tleman from Indiana" Booth Tarking-
ton, and Three Men in a Boat" by
Jerome.
First, second and consolation prizes
were given. consisting Of books. This

Home.
In the old-time manor house 1t was
the fashion 10 inscribe a motto over
the fireplace, especially in the great
dining-room and library. The inscrip-
ton was usually in Latin, the Ian
guage Of the scholar. This custom is
now being revived, and there Is scarce
ly q room in which a sentiment pref
tily expressed would not be a welcome
addition, and which would at once at
tract the attention Of a guest as being
something unique. Here are a few
good sentiments; the lettering may be
done in script or Old English:
For the hall:
East or west, home is best"
"a mans home is his CASTLE"
"Home is the resort Of love, Of Joy,
Of peace"
"Our house is ever at your service"
Over the fireplace IN Mark TWaln's
house in Connecticut Is this beautiful
inscription:
The ornament Of q house II the
guests who frequent It"
The three following inscriptions are
especially appropriate for the family
living-room:
"oh. ye IRE and heat, bless ye the
Lord"
God has given Us this ease" or
Seek thine own ease"
mo place is more delightful than
ones own Preside"
For the library:
"Old wood to burn,
Old friends to trust,
Old authors to read"
'There is an art Of reading"
"The monuments Of vanished
minds"
Infinite riches In q little room"
For the nursery:
God rest ye, little children"
"a child In the house is a we'll
spring Of pleasure"
For the music room:
