POLARIZATION CAUSES RIOT.
Russian Miners at Washington, Pa.,
 Cause q Lot of Trouble

Washington, Pa, Jan. 7,--Celebration of the Russian Christmas by miners of that nationality at the Meadowlands Coal works, four miles from here, caus- ed a race riot this evening between Russians and Italians, in which one mans skull was fractured, woman with a baby in her arms knocked down with brick, and others received seri- ous injuries. The Russians began their celebration of Christmas last midnight by setting off dynamite. The explo- sions were so heavy that several win doWs in the home of Italians were shat tered. The Italians rushed the merry makers, capturing several, whom they bound and placed in vacant houses, where they were found by friends this mokrning.
 This evening the Russians armed themselves with bricks, stones and clubs and attacked the Italian quarters. Mrs. Annie Politono, who was sitting at window nursing her baby, was struck with brick and knocked to the floor. Pietro Marelli received blow with club which fractured his skull, Some of the homes were entered by forcing the doors, and hand-to-hand fights were many. Few of the belliger- ents escaped unhurt and about dozen, chiefly Italians, received serious in- juries. About 200 men engaged in the rioting.

GERMAN AMERICAN TRADE.
Continued from First Page.l

(Continued from First Page.) $21 ,00O, ,OO0 against about $1S,0OO,OO in 1895,
 "Breadstuffs form 8 less important factor in our trade with Germany than formerly, owing to the great falling off in the quantity which the United States is now able to spare to the out side world. Of wheat, for example, our exports to Germany, which amounted to more than 10000,000 bushels in 1901, fell to 100,04O bushels In 1905, the value being but $S4,700. Flour shows also & considerable decline, but corn showed a remarkable increase, its total export to Germany being over $9,000,000 in value.
 Tn the manufactures, especially cop per, mineral oil leather, scientific in- struments and certain manufactures of iron and steel, our exports to Germany show steady growth. The value of copper bars, ingots and plates exported amounted to over $14000,000 against a little more than one and one half mil lions in 1905; kerosene, $S,500000 against $4,750,0O0 in 1885; leather, $1,500, 900 against over a million in 1900; cotton seed oil $1,5OOoOO and oil cakes 5,750,000 against less than one million dollars and less than $250o,oOO respectively, a decade ago.
 Imports from Germany formed in 1905, 1O.7 per cent of the total impor- tations into the United States, and ex- ports to that country in the same year 12S per cent. of the total exports of the country. Germany's figures show that imports from the United States in 1904 formed 14S per cent. of her total imports and that exports to the United States formed 9,5 per cent, of her total exports.

L1NcoLN's FIRST LAW PARTNE

LINCOLN's FIRST LAW PARTNER.
 Major Stuart, with whom Lincoln had joined forces, was not in his early years a well-read or even an industrious law yer. but he was popular and had an extensive if not very lucrative practice, which he was entirely willing to in trust to his new associate. Indeed, when the firm was formed he was SO deeply engrossed in politics that he gave little or no attention to the law, and Lincoln had to assume virtually all responsibility for the business.
 Of course if the procedure had been complicated or technical a novice would have speedily come to grief; but the character of litigation was very simple in those days, the precedents were few and far between, and the legal forms exceedingly elastic. Lincoln met such difficulties as there were in his own way, asking as little advice as possible and exercising his ingenuity to bridge the gaps in his information when his partner was not available for consulta- ton, The habit of standing on his CNli 1SGb anu dOlllE HIS ONAl which was thus forced upon him at the very outset of his practice, became his most notable trait. One of his contem- poraries closely in touch with his pro- fesslonal life testifes that he never asked another lawyers advice on any subject whatsoever He listened to his associates and consulted with them, but he worked out his own problems, and there was never anything of the brain trapper' about his relations with the bar.
 The influence of this early training is plainly discernible in the remarkable self-reliance and sresourcefulness which he exhibited in his later years. New questions did not confuse him, he faced emergencies with perfect serenity, and he had long been accustomed to respon- sibility when he was called upon to decide questions of national lmport.-- Frederick Trevor Hill, in The Century Magazine.

FRANKLIN THE BENEFAcToR.

Perhaps among all the stories of ap- peal for help to Benjamin Franklin, none will be found more remarkable than the letter from a French Bene- dictine monk, confessing that at Easter he was drawn into game of cards, where he played heavily and lost. With no possible means of repaying this money, he writes to Franklin, irn- ploring his assistance for the sake of his reputation Again Franklin seems reused from his usual philosophic calm, Indorsed on the back in his handwrit- ing we read this curt summing up: Wants me to pay his gaming debts and he will pray for the cause of America"
 Many are the applications from poor prisoners, most often Americans, who, having been captured, and impressed into the British navy, were afterward taken by French vessels and left to languish in French prisons. Several of these complain bitterly of their Sate "among a parcel of French thieves, with only six sous a day to live on, nothing but dirt to lie on, and iron bars through which ito gaze all day long, escape from an English prison before he fell into the hands of the French, writes regretfully: q only eat five meles of .vittles in fourteen days"
 A prisoner in the Abbaye St. Ger main applies to Franklin mot as a countryman, but as a fellow creature who is reudced by captivity of up- ward of three years, by sickness and every sort of evil. to the last degree of unhappiness He adds with true pa- thos: "In happier days had occasion to prove myself a lover of liberty: in my present sad situation. my way of thinking is of little consequence.

PLEASANT PoRTER's GRAFTON,
An Indian Chief on the Development
 of His Race.

An Indian Chief on the Development
 of His Race.
 Tn the twilight of the tribal life of the American aborigines stands the chief of the Greeks. He is heard to ut ter the following oration. It will be read in the reading books of the youth of other centuries. The oration is dig nified, tranquil, eloquent. There is hope in the heart of the chief whose people dared and forebore so long in the un- spoken cut of the forest. General Pleasant Porter said:
 The vitality of our race still persists, We have not lived for naught. We are the original discoverers of this con- tinent and the conquerors of it from the animal kingdom, and on from It first taught the art of peace and war, and first planted the institutions of vlr- tue, truth and liberty. The European nation found us here and were made aware that it was possible for men to exist and subsist here. We have given to the European people on this conti- nent our thought forces. The best blood of our ancestors has been inter- mingled with their best statesmen and leading citizens. We have ourselves an indestructible element in their natural history. We have shown what they believe to be arid and desert places were habitabIe and capable of sustain- ing millions of people. We have led the vanguard of civilization in our con- fiict with them for tribal existence from ocean to ocean. The race that has rendered this service to the other nations of mankind cannot perish ut terly.
 Though our tribal organization is fading away, we will be transformed as a potent factor, an element within the body of Christian civilization. The philosophy of the history of the future shall trace many of the principles of government and institutions so dear to them to those they found among us.
 .Now that we have demonstrated that we have the ability to make for ourselves and our children homes, and having sanction of every law, let us make for ourselves this firm and fixed resolution; let our every act speak it forth; let the elements or forces of na- ture carry our resolutions to our fel- iowmen the world over; let them in their senses know and feel it and enter upon the performance of our high mis- sion.
 Many of you have accomplished it already; many have begun it; begin at once and devote all your energies of soul, mind and body to the task set be- fore us, even if it takes years-yes a lifetime to carry it out.
 "When we have thus resolved to make for ourselves and our children homes, we will have indited in and upon ourselves a law for our guidance which divine and human law will pro- tect and sustain us in its maintenance. NO statutory law will ever annul it, and we shall then have risen to the place of our high destiny. -Muskogee I T) Times.

Madame Szumowska at the Only Even-

 Madame Antoinette Szumowska-Ad- amowski, the gifted pianiste who comes as soloist at the evening concert of the New Haven Symphoney orchestra in January 16, is said to closely resem- ble her master, Ignace Paderewsl1i, in her Chopin and Mozart work. She possesses the same fresh velvety tone which one notes in Paderewszi in his very best. Madame Adamowslii stu died for several years with Strobl and Michasowski, and in 1899 went to Paris for further study. It was while in Paris that she attracted the attention of Paderewski, who was so impressed with her talent that he offered to be- come her teacher. For five years she was his pupil, and since her debut has
