NEGROES RABID
AT ROOSEVELT

CHICAGO, Nov. pa big mass
meeting of negroes was held here
yesterday which denounced Presi-
dent Roosevelt as claw breaker
and executive lyncher." The
cause of this protest by the color
ed people was due to the discharge
of three black companies of infan-
try from the regular army for riot
ing at Brownsville, Texas. The
meeting also called upon all color
ed clergymen to keep members of
their congregation as far as pos
sible from Orchestra hall when
Senator Tillman will lecture next
Tuesday.
Senator Tillman will be taken
to the hall in an automobile
heavily guarded by police.

UNIONS READY TO
ARBITRATE

Tacoma labor leaders say that
they are ready to arbitrate the
differences existing between the
uniuounsuu uanud the contractors
and builders which has led to the
strike in that city. The claim OF
the Citizens alliance that it has
been successful in furnishing la
Dor to the contractors is denied by
the labor men, who state that men
shipped from the East to break
the strike have never reached Ia
coma.
The Tcamoa Building Trades
council has issued a statement OF
the trouble in that city as being
an attempt on the part of the con
tractors and builders to establish
the open shop.

CHIEF MYERS HAS

Chief Harry Myers, of the fire
department, has not yet recovered
from the results Of inhaling the
smoke and fumes at the fire in the
Spokane Cloak & SUIT house a
week ago today. He Is still con-
fined to his bed with swollen face
and eyes. For a time it was fear.

Fireman Barker, another who suf-
fered seriously from commissions,
is able to be up, but has orders
from DR.. w. Q. Webb not to go
near a fire station, as the smell
makes him deathly sick to his
stomach. Firemen Raub and

ont of other countries. The imml-
grafton authorities report the evil
as on the increase.
"The official figures give no idea
of the extent of this evil,' said an
official of the immigration bureau.
"The annual report will show
certain number Of women turned
back or subsequently deported'
But these figures show only our
helplessness to deal with the
matter.
81 would not like to say now
many thousands Of women are liv-
ing today in the United States VINO
have been brought from foreign
countries for immoral purposes. In
some cases they were immorai
women before they started. In
others they are induced to come
by promises of good homes ana
work, and are seduced after their
arrival
"The women are brought over
by men who live on their earnings
The women are kept in a state or
terror and are farmed out to peo-
pie Of their nationality, and some
times to others. They remain In
bondage because they do not know
the laws Of the country. The men
tell them that they will be put into
jail If they refuse to take their
orders. In some cases trumped up
charges are brought against them,
with manufactured evidence. and
they are given a taste of what they
may expect. That finishes any eff
fort to escape.
"The immigration authorities
try to detect these people; but at
the rnrts of entrance 1t is almost
impossible. A man generally
brings two women. One comes as
his wife and the other as his
wife's sister. They have their
story all made up. The only effec-
tive way to curb the practice is to
get at the people ON the other
side"
The Paris conference Is an ef-
fort to secure concerted action on
the part of the police authorities
OF all civilized nations. The
United States, Japan and China
are not parties to 1t.
The reason the United States
has not sent delegates and taken
part in these conferences, as given
by the state department, Is that
we have no federal police. The po-
lice OF the United States is all a
matter of state authority.
or course the foreign police
have much broader powers than
this. In most European countries
the police have the power to deal
summarily with these cases.
1t Is a mistake to imagine that
the Chinese are the only national
ity who are engaged in importing
women for immoral purposes to
any large extent. 1t is the expe-
rience of the government officials
that the Japanese are more large
ly engaged in this trade than are
the Chinese in the United States;
and women are coming in every
day, In hundreds, from all the
countries of Europe. They spread
TO every city.

Whites Crowd Indians.

There are estimated to be 100000 people In Indian Territory, only one quarter of whom are Indians, says NJ. c. Cunnif In the Worlds Work. As one travels through the territories this proportion Is borne out by ones experience. One might ride through Oklahoma, stopping of at town after town without ever seeing an Indian. In Indian Territory an Indian shack or tepee is occasionally visible from the railroad, with Its dwellers loafng about; but you recognize no Indians In the towns, and you do not see Indians loafing about the railroad stations.
 If you do zee one in town you have to be told that he is an Indian, for he Is probably half-breed or a quar- ter-breed, well dressed and competent looking, not distinguishable from the white men with whom he mingles.
 Indian Territory" said a business man In Tulsa, I. T., "ls not peopled by Indians. There are fewer than 100000 Indians owning the land, and there are probably 100000 white men In the town and scattered through the territory"

If anything could add q deeper shade to the railway horror at Salisbury. England. 1t would be the presentiments that some of the victims had of their approaching doom. such as were ex- pressed by the Santell family as they parted with their friends at the wharf In New York. What Is the explanation of such experiences? Almost every one classes them with clalrvoyance and tel epathy as simply inexpllcable mysteries and leaves them there. It Is only now and then that any one Is philosophical enough to take a more rational view of them, and that Is that they are coinci- dental. If everybody knew of all the cases In which presentimcnts of death had proved delusiye no ore would be In the least astonlshed at those which are realized. No doubt there are thou sands of the delusiye kind to one that proves correct. The wonder is not that one In many thousands are realized. but that any are The same Is true of dreams. and remarkable case of pre- sentiment by dreams occurred several years ago In Connecticut.

It so hannnDai that thic Int papers, but it was only because 1t was an extreme case.

vacation season-say from the first of July to the first of 0ctober-the show Ing would be so alarming as to shock careful parents and to call into exist ence a host of reform societies The fact that summer accidents are report ed as they occur, singly and In widely separated places, accounts in large impression they make on the public mind. The old meaning of the word accident, as something that Just hap pens," and could not have been pre- vented, still cllngs to 1t. Most of those who read these words may hold that view of it. and some of them are al- most certain to find out by experience, before the summer is over. whether It Is true or not.

Accidents are due to definite, material and usually pre- ventable causes.

EVOLUTION OF THE COOK.

It is doubtful If any of the modern ladies of the kitchen will care to follow the early trlumphs of arctic culinary art, ns described In Short Sketches from Oldest America"
 During these very early days, writes Dr. Drlggs, washing dishes appears to have been an undiscovered accomplish ment, as an ancient recipe says:
 "Scrape the old dried dinner from the 'allutok' used at a previous feast of seal meat. To the scrapings add a small pinch of the tender pin-feathers of bird. The two ingredients are to be mixed, then masticated until meta morphosed Into chewinggum.'
 After few centuries had passed, some genius invented new form of chewlnggum called 'anoon." It appears to have been the third triumph in the culinary line. Seal oil is boiled, the upper portion being poured off the thick sediment remaining Is again boiled until 1t becomes black and near ly burned, when It Is ready for chew ing.
 "Keveh," made by warming deer tallow, then beating It into a light mass with salmon berries. was the fourth in- novatlon, and "ahkootoo" the fifth
 "Ahkootoo' Is made from deer mar row, mixed with whale oil, small amount of soup from boiled deer meat. and also some of the meat cut quite fine. The mass Is to be beaten until 1t becomes quite light. It is an articl- of food very highly esteemed by the Inupash.
 These remained the only dishes known to the cook for a vast length of time. On the first introduction of flour the people did not care for 1t, but about 1890 they learned the art of making "nookpouras"-flour mixed with small amount of water, then dropped into boiling seal or whale oil. Nook pouras" proved popular, and from that time flour became in demand

Subjects of Thought.

When the burdens of life rest heavily upon us, when sometimes weight of despair seems to be settling down upon our hearts, then We know the value of sympathy, the need of helping hand.
 If you mean to do something worthy of being remembered, mind your work well. but never mind your fame; leave that to time. He Is the lawful admin lstrator of all such affairs.
 We should manage our fortune as we do our health-enjoy 1t when good. be patient when It Is bad, and never apply violent remedies except in an ex- treme necessity.
 Keep your conduct abreast of your conscience, and very soon your con science will be illumined by the rad- ance of God.
 He is happy whose circumstances suit his temper: but he is more excellent who can suit his temper to any circum- stance.
 Do good constantly, patiently and wisely, and you will never have cause to say that life was not worth living
 Human nature Is so constituted that all see and judge better In the affairs of others than In their own.
 A fool, wishing to read, went into the starlight. stars are of no use," said the fool.
 All are born to observe good order, but few are born to establish It.
 There Is no sweeter repose than that which Is bought with labor.
 Genuine simplicity of heart Is a heal Ing and cementing principle.
