The French Government and those
who sympathized with its legislative cru
elites have sought, by subtle cunning, to
cast the blame Of the present disorder

peals with confidence from the French
Government to the parliament of the
world Heretofore only one side OF
the case was presented to the world, and
that one side was hostile to the Church,
but of late the case of the Church IS
being listened to, the organs of public
opinion that hitherto have had only
words of condemnation for her attitude
now are confessing their error, recOg-

INSTANCES OF NEGRO SUCCESS

INSTANCES OF NEGRO SUCCESS
BY FREDERICK J. HAsKIN
From the Washington Daily Herald
The trouble with the negro soldiers
1t Brownsville. and race disturbances
elsewhere. have caused so much feeling
that one wonders what Is to come Of
the whole sorry business. The worst
side Of negro character has had thor
1ugh airing; the faults and shortcom-
ugs of the black man have been laid
bare to the bone. Can any good be said
.of him. Is ne doing anything COM

Of specific instances of negro success

Booker J. Washington IS the lore

the head Of his race as an educator
and moldcr Of thought He believes IN

and to train hands and brain together.
When Washington founded the Tus-
kegee Normal and Industrial Institute
he had no money, and the school had
none. During the first year he was It's
only teacher, and the thirty pupils were
gwen instruction IN an old church and
a dilapidated shanty lent by the colored
epople of the neighborhood.
The institute now owns two thousand
acres of land, eighty-three buildings,
dwellings,, dormitories, classrooms, shops.
and barns. live stock. farm implements,
etc. all valued at $4,000. This does

To turn a l2.000-ton steamship into
a huge steel bubble by pumping her full
OF compressed air, and float her of
rocks on which she had been impaled
for more than year, Is Il feat which
has been accomplished in the wrecked
Allan liner Bavarlan, at the suggestion
OF Captain Leslie, the well-known
wrecklng expert of Kingston, Ont.
With full passenger list and valua-
Bile cargo, the Bavarian ran on Wye
Rock, thirty eight miles below Quebec,
on the night of NOV. 3, 1905. Many of
the Bavarian's compartments filled
with water, and the ship settled down
OIL the rocks. The ships bottom plates
we're badly torn, and when the wreck
ers made an examination 1t was declar-
cd that the floating Of the vessel would
be most difficult job.
After the Allans had worked for sew
eral weeks to get the vessel on she was
turned over to Lloyds, and the under,
writer's set to work to save their
money. All the old methods for rails
Ing vessels were employed, and failed
At last the underwriters gave 1t up.
The big liner lay on the rocks
throughout the whole Of the winter
and when spring came, and 1t was seer
that the vessel had not suffered from
the winter storms, hopes began to re
vlve that perhaps she might yet bt
saved. Captain Leslie visited the
wreck and after careful examination
gave It as his opinion that the big yes
sci could be successfully hoated. HI
