referring to the Chattanooga lynch
ing, the Knoxville Sentinel remarks:
1t is the manifest sympathy offered
TO men of the Johnson type, the protec.
ton given them, the making of mar
tyrs out of them, which arouses the
feeling that is most dangerous. Both
races ought to unite in the pursuit and
punishment of men of that type as
they would mad dogs. And the intel
llgent Afro-American from pulpit. ros-
trum and press should preach a cru
SADIE against such brutes.
THE APPEAL heartily indorses the
suggestion that both races should unite

mad dogs, provided however that the
process is to include white brutes who
commit outrages upon Afro-American
women. But a white brute of sstha

upon an Afro-American woman. and it

NO COLOR LINE IN LABOR.

The executive council of the Fedora
ton of Labor at it's recent session said
this:
1--WE reafirm as one of the cardinal
principles of the trade union move
ment that the working people must
unite and organize. irrespective of
creed, color. SEX nationality or pol
itics..
We are certainly glad to learn that
the platform of the Federation of Lab
Or is so broad. Heretofore it has
drawn the color line either directly or
indirectly as vigorously as tomdixon or
Vardaman would demand; and by so
doing has debarred the Afro-American
from employment in some sections of
the country subject to it's control.
AIro-American labOrers We're therefore
thrown into necessary antagonism to
the union and were used in many in
stances to defeat it's plans. Perhaps
the executive council has taken these
facts into serious consideration and
has rescued the cardinal principles
from the pigeon-hole of the graveyard
committee.
We thus have one more proof of the
fact that the Afro-Amerfcan can no
longer be thrust aside as an "irrele-
want factor in any movement of ma

The grand jury Of Etowah county,

Accordingly to the report rendered, it

command was exhausted to find out

OF course the jury could then report to

Within Easy Reach.

that any article desired will be in
easy reach of an invalid or other per-
son occupying the bed.
The articles are placed in a cabi-
net, which is divided into a number of
compartments by partitions. At one
sidesof the cabinet is pair Of braces,
made of metal rods, the ends Of the
rods terminating into loops. Clamps
are used to hold the cabinet to the
bed. one end Of the clamp also termi-
mating into a loop. Connecting the
loops on the cabinet and, those on the
clamps is a vertical rod, which serves
as a hinge. The cabinet can thus be
swung around within convenient reach
OF the person upon the bed, or when
not in use can be swung to one side.

about the. bedpost, being. resilient, the

BulI-Baitinq in Enuland.

In the old days of England bull-bait-
ing was as common as football. A re-
hinder of this exists in the will of
one George Staverton, of Nottingham.
He bequeathed out Of his estate sum
of $50 yearly with which to buy a bull
for the batting. The bull was to be
given to the poor of Nottingham to be
baited in the market place Dec 21 of
each year, the remains of the animal
to be sold and the proceeds devoted
to the purchase of shoes and stockings
for the poor children. The will was
carried out until eighty years ago

DIR. Howard L. Jones pastor of the
First Baptist church of Chattanooga.
Tenn, in recent sermon, scathingly
reviewed the recent lynching in that
city. Judge Lynch seems to have re-
garded DR.. Jones as guilty of contempt
OF court; and accordingly decreed that
the minister's residence should be
fired and himself, his wife and children
burned up. The officers of the court
attempted to carry out the decree of
the court, but were frustrated by the
vigilance of DIR. Jones who had been
put on his guard by the threats con
tanned in anonymous letters. 1t has
not yet been decided which is the
court OF last resort, Judge Lynch's
Court or the Supreme Court of the
United States: but the former seems
to assume that the decision will be in
its favor

A Pineannle Hint.

The toughness of pineapples, says
"a writer in the National Magazine, is
almost entirely eliminated by slicing
the fruit UP. and down from stem to
blossom end, instead of through the
core, as is usually done
Thrust a fork into the blossom end
to hold the pineapple steady, and
slice until you come to the hard pithy
core, which can then be discarded.
The trick was taught me by an old
pineapple grower and makes all the
difference in the world in the tender
ness Of the fruit, which is usually hard
and cllippy when sliced with, instead
OF against, the grain.
