The protracted meeting and re-
vival services held at the A. NJ. E.
church for the past two weeks
closed last Friday evening. Rev.
f. p. Greenlee the pastor was as
sisted by Rev. ]. FL. Brown of
Denver, who was given the free
dom of his own way in conducting
the same. Rev. Brown made a
favorable impression upon the peo-
pie of Cheyenne and by his gentle
manly conduct and Christian vir-
tues was successful in arousing
the spiritual life of the people. AS
a result of this procedure there
were two conversions, Mrs. Ollie
Reed and Frank Steele, and Mrs.
Helen Thompson renewed her COW
enant aud connected herself with
the church. On Tuesday evening
the ladies of the Household of
Ruth gave a reception in honor
of Rev Brown and the servant of
the Master and distinguished visi-
tor left Wednesday morning for
his home in Denver.

SCHOOL COhhENCEhEETS.

From now on the closing days OF
public, private and denominational
schools and colleges will be held.
In most of the Southern states
where warmer weather obtains the
closing is earlier than elsewhere.
The army of graduates going forth
upon the stage of actual life will
make the competition more inter
esting and the world thought and
world business more keen. The
time is fast approaching when an
uneducated man can find no place
of service or trust and even the
half educated must step back and
give place to the graduate. The
schools of the land are doing a
mighty work for young American
and the Afro-Americans are keep
ing step with the pace.

ABOUT APPENDICITIS
TREATMENT OF THE MALADY
IN VARIOUS LANDS.
Rare Among People Who Eat Little
Meat Medicine More Sue
cessful Than the !.
Knife.

A statistical study of cases of ap-
pendicitis has been made by DR.. Chau-
vel the medical inspector OF the
French army. By far the most yalu-
able information brought out by hi7
investigation is the result Of medicaf
treatment for the disease. Although
there is a theory that there is no such
thing as medical treatment fer ap-
pendicitis. it is claimed that medical
treatment cures SO out of every 100
In 1902 66S patients suffering from
appendicitis were received in the mill
tary hospitals of France. Out OF tnfs
number 1873 were treated according to
the surgical rite and 4S0 received
purely medical treatment. OF the
number operated upon % died. while
out of the $50 not operated upon there
were but three deaths.
DR.. Chauvel also made investiga-
tions to find out the cause of appen-
dicitis. He compared the figures fur.
nished by the French army in the
metropolis and those of the army in
Algiers. In 1901 the Nineteenth corps
of the army in France showed rec
ord of one case to every thousand,
while the Nineteenth corps in Algiers
had two less. The next year these
figures were larger, but the difference
was exactly the same.
Pushing his inquiries still furthers
DIR. Chauvel found that the French
army in Algeria included both Euro
peans, French and natives. In five
years, out of $4,000 men, there were
among the French and Europeans 137
cases of appendicitis, while in tSs
same space of time out of 1900 ma
tives there We're but 13 cases. This
shows that the disease is two times
more frequent among the French in
France than the French in Algeria,
and is ten times less frequent among
the natives. The difference is too
great to be accidental. DR.. Chauvel
thinks the reason is in the alimenta-
tion.
The Arabs are a sober people who
eat little and are vegetarians. When
they eat meat it is cooked to shreds.
So it happens that among the Arabs
leading their ordinary life the dis
ease is almost unknown. 1t is seen
more frequently among the auxilia-
ries. 1t is because the regime of the
latter is no more the regime of the
Arab, but more like that of the French
trooper. But this does not explain
why the European transplanted to the
soil of Africa, where his regime hard
ly differs from that of the metropolis.
should likewise be immune from the
disease.
Other medical men have testified to
the rarity of appendicitis among peo-
pie who eat less meat than we. DR..
Snyder, who has been attached to the
Persian court for more than ten years,
has baen called upon to treat only five
cases of this malady at Teheran, three !
of which were Europeans and onlyS
two Persians. He also attributes the
rarity of appendicular accidents to
the mode of alimentation of the Per-
SLAMS. At Teheran abstinence from
pork is obligatory and the meat of cat
tie is almost unknown. Their meats
are usually chicken or mutton, and
these are always cooked to shreds.

The great British empire is pre-
dominately colored. The typical
American is an Octoroon or count
ing the islands a mulatto; but the
typicalx Briton IS only eighth
white. OF the 400 millions of be-
ings under the Union Jack only "a
millions are white. Next to them
come 300,O00,000 yellow, brown
and Asiatics, and Africa with 40
million blacks and mixed bloods.
Brothers, the coming world man is
colored. For the handful of whites
in this world to dream that they
with their present declining birth
rate can ever inherit the earth and
hold the darker millions in perpet-
ual subjection is the widest of
wild dreams. Thank God that it
is. Humanity is the goal of all
good, and no single race whatever
its color or deeds, can disinherit
Gods anointed peoples.

ERRORS OF SPEECH.
common Abuse Of the Verbs to Get,
to Lay and to Lie,

common Abuse Of the Verbs to Get.
to Lay and to Lie.
The verb to get is one of our much
misused words. 1t means to acquire.
win, obtain, and primarily it signifies
the putting forth of effort to attain
something. Consequently it is not only
superfiuous, but incorrect, to speak Of
man as getting drowned" or get
ting sick" and you may unfortunately
have cold" but it is impossible that
you have got cold" At this mo-
ment no exceptions occur to the writer
to the rule that got should never be
used In connection with have, which
alone sufficiently expresses possession.
Say Il have the picture" not II have
got the picture ''The dog has a
broken leg" not 1.-THE dog has got a
broken leg"
The irregular verbs lay and lie are
frequently COMPOUNDED. Lay is an ac-
tive or transitive verb, and lie is pas
sive or intransitive. We lay things
down or have laid them down, but we
and things lie at rest. You lie down,
have lain down. will lie down or are
lying down; she lay down yesterday
and Is going to lie down this afternoon.
A frequent error Is to confound the
past lenses of these verbs. One should
say, MARY laid the book on the table
and lay down herself" but the book
lies on the table.

THE STOMACH.
How 1t Is Affected by the Use OF
Mixed Fatty Foods.

How 1t Is Affected by the Use Of
Mixed Fatty Foods.
The stomach never has the least pow
err of digesting true fat. This Is dis
posed of in the intestines. When eat
en- in the ordinary forms, as fat meat,
butter. etc, the fat separates out in
the stomach and does not in the least
interfere with the work Of the gastric
Juice on the other food, but when a
nonfatty food has been intimately mix
ed with grease the latter prevents the
gastric Juice getting ut the food It
could digest. Fish fried in oil or but
ter is by no means the most marked
example, as the fat does not penetrate
very deeply. Potatoes mashed with
butter are rather worse, and minced
vegetables fried with butter are bad
offenders. The reason advanced ex-
plains why pork is difficult Of diges-
ton. The muscular fibers are mixed
up with fat cells, and by the liberation
of the oil In each tiny cell the eaten
pork Is made into an oily paste. A
very strong stomach will do the work
required, but it is not fair task to
impose frequently, and weak stom-
ach will refuse to do anything beyond
reminding its owner by few stabs
that 1t will not stand such treatment
