to herself, there had been no harm done,
50 she could see no reason for confessing
to her mother that she. had disobeyed
her. She would never, never do so again.
Indeed, she had made up her mind fully
to drop Polly Penn as mn associate. Her
conduct had been rude and ugly that
afternoon and Anna May would no longer
call her friend. And Helen should be
dropped from her list also. she would
not allow herself to be led into doing
wrong by such bad hammered girls.
That evening Anna May was so silent

Anna Mays mother had gone away for
the day and before her departure she
told Anna May that she might have a
few Of her little friends In for luncheon
with her. But she warned Anna May
against taking her young company into
the parlor, as they might accidentally
break some OF the choice bric~a ~a-brac In
their childish play or do some damage to
the rich hangings and dainty sofa cush-
Ions. But the big, cheerful sittlng-room
was theirs to romp in as much as they
chose. Also the library might be Wis.
tied II they wanted to enjoy the Illus
trated books and magazines. But the
parlor must not be entered during the
mothers absence.
Anna May was little girl to be
trusted. She had never disobeyed her
parents, and they had the most implicit
faith in her. 1t was this faith In her
little 1Oyear-old daughter that made the
mother so willing to allow the little
party to be given during her absence
from home.
After her mamma had kissed her good
bye and driven away in her carriage-she
was going to the country to spend the
day with a sick frlend-Anna May put
on her jacket and hat and went among
her playmates, inviting them to come to
her house for luncheon at noon and to
remain for play all afternoon. Then she
hurried home to assist the cook and
housemaid with the preparations for the
party which was being got under way so
hurriedly. she ran several errands for
cook, going to the grocery store, the con-
fectioner's and the florists. She selected
che bonbons and the bouquet for the
luncheon table. her mamma having given
her consent for the purchase of these
things before leaving home that morn

The little comrades arrived on the
hour. and q gay time was had during
luncheon. Then they adjourned to the
big cheerful sittlng-room to participate
in games and play. Thus an hour passed

But Polly replaced it on the mantel un-
hurt and turned her attention to other
things in the room. From one table She
went to another. examining everything.

The Voice Of Spring.

All winter long the blossoms had slept
Under the ground;
All winter long in their dungeons they
heard
Never a sound.
But in March weather, windy and sharp,
There came to their ear
A voice filed with music, like unto a
harp,
A voice of good cheer.
Loud cried the voice, as the wind blew,
'Springtime is here."

CRAbLE STRIKES QUT SIXTEEN
 SOLDIERS
Remarkable Baseball Game at Tombstone Results in Score of 4 to 3 in Favor of County Seat,
Special to ReyiewD

TOMBSTONE, July 27.-In one of the fastest games of baseball ever witnessed on a local diamond. the home team this afternoon defeated the soldiers from Fort Huachuca by a score of 1 to 9. The feature of the game was the pitching of Crable for Tombstone. T. is understood that another game will be arranged be- tween the two aggregations.
 From the opening of the game, when large crowd of spectators were on hand, it was evident that the contest was going to be fast. Both teams were supported by large portions of the audience. and neither one could safely be called a favOrite.
 In the first inning Crable started the work of demollshing the soldier batters as they stepped to the plate, and from this inning until the end of the game the carnage was kept up. When the last batsman for the Hua- chuca was out Crable had struck out sixteen men, which is aR exhibition of ball tossing never before equalled in Cochise County.
 Tonight the management of the two teams were asked by citizens to ar range another contest to be played here, and it is probable that the pre- iiminaries will be arranged before the soldiers leave for the fort.

NINE WOMEN AND CHILDREN
 PERISH
Catches Fire on Lake Cayuga and Men PaSSen- gers Show DiSgraCefuI C0W- ardiCe Toward Women,

AUBURN, N. Y, July 27.-The steamboat FrOntenac burned was was beached opposite Harleys Point on Lake Cayuga today Nine lives were lost The victims. all women and children passengers, were drowned. Several other passengers were sey- erely burned before the boat was beached. She lies tonight burned and blackened in seven feet of water. The bodies of phe women and children have been recovered. The following were drowned:
 Carl Genung, year old son. Mrs. Bennett, Frankfort; Miss Stella Gin ton, Ithaca; Miss Marietta Sullivan, Syracuse; six year old daughter of Howard Able, South Bloomingburg. Two unidentified women.
 The steamer was an old side wheel CT, double deck craft, which has piled between Ithasca and Cayuga on the lake for twenty-five years. It left the former place this afternoon for the up- per lake, carrying fifty passengers and crew of twelve. In mid-lake fire broke out in tP; engine room, and fan ned by a stiff wind spread quickly to every section of the boat. The crew of twelve behaved splendidly. fighting the flames at first, but seeing that nothing could be saved, turned all their attention to the passengers. Life preservers were put on every one that could be found in the brief time, but in spite of all efforts nine perished. Captain Brown directed the work of the crew and was the last to leave the burning boat. In strong contrast to the bravery of the crew was the panic, and in some instances cowardice of many men among the passengers. In their efforts to save themselves they seriously impeded the work of the crew. When the flames were first dis covered in midlake, Captain Brown turned the boat towards the shore and set the crew to work to subdue the flames, if possible, and calm the pas sengerN It is not known just how the women and children were thrown into the water It is thought they became panic stricken and either jumped or were forced overheard in the rush to get boats.

JAP TROOPS ARE POURING INTO
 SEOUL
Ito Declares No Other Course Is Possible, with 7000 Armed Korean SoI- dierS Who May Revolt,

SEOUL, July 27.-About 1900 troops are arriving daily. Generals OkaZ and Aki have been placed in command of all armed forces in Seoul, military, gendarmes and police. It has been fOrbidjN1 to publish military in formation of every kind. Saionje. pre- mier of Japan. has sent congratula- tiOnS of the emperor to Marquis Ito, expressing qualification over his ser vices in Korea. A monetary gift from the emperor to distribute among the soldiers and police accompanied the congratulations. The Japanese foreign minister, ViscUunt Hayashi was received in audience this after noon by the emperor. Ito, who ac- cOmpanied Hayashi, gave the Asso- ciated Press before starting to the palace the follow statement:
 "The agreement reached is relief to both nations and is for mutual wei fare. Though unrest has existed. the country has quieted since the agree men was arrived at Troops asked for in the beginning of the recent trouble are now arriving. This is a necessary precaution, in view of the existence of 1000 Korean troops. A large Japanese garrison will be re- quired hereafter in order to prevent the possibility of danger from Korean troops. I am figuring on the future but the details of my plans have not been resolved. Our position, former ly one of advice, is now one of direc, tion, and we shall and must go slow. ly and steadily. The stipulations of the new convention dispose of the ac, cusation that Japan intended to grad. ually annex Korea. Annexation is op. posed by me as unwise and unneces. saTy. The draft of agreement was made from proposals brought by Hay ashi in which the suggestions of gov. eTnment were in accordance with mine The agreement carefully ex- pressed, after amending the diffef- ences of the two governments, that the right of decision was with my self but Tokio and those with real interests here will support me. A protectorate is a great burden and the increase of revenues great problem. Fortunately the revenues are increas- ing gradually, but at first great ex- penditures will be necessary as was the case in Formosa, where it took twelve years to increase the revenues from $6,0O0,0O0 to $20,000,000 an nually. In the progress of Korea, ig- norance is the greatest obstacle. Next was the court of the misguided em- peror.

THE RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH

The Afro-Americans of Chicago have
been lately censured very severely
for trying to restrict the privilege of
free speech; and the arguments were
so convincing that, as the Chicago
Chronicle reports: "Some scores of
people gathered in a hall the other
day and welcomed back to Chicago a
man who has been spending some
time in the penitentiary. for sending
obscene matter through the mails.
These people loudly applauded the re-
turned prisoner when he declared that
he meant to repeat his offense They
talked loudly about the right of free
speech and a free press. What they
relay meant was that everybody must
join them in roll on the muck heap
And by the way, even in the enlight-
ened south, some highly enlightened
preachers are trying to prevent the
presentation of Romeo and Juliet in
the strictly moral city of Chattanooga.
So it seems that there is some limit
to the right of a crank to scatter ar
rows, frebrands and death. If there
is not, there ought to be.

THE POST KNOWS A FEW
THINGS, r

The Memphis Commercial-Appeal
gives it to the New York Evening
Post as follows:
The New York Evening Post says
that the prosperity of the South de-
ponds on the Negro. If the Post knew
anything about the section which it
Sc persistently SANDERS, it would
never dare make such an absurd
statement. The Negro is almost en-
tirely a laborer He performs as a
rule the crudest possible service, such
as contemplating, digging bitches and
so on. His place as a laborer could
be easily filled.
Now it happens that THE APPEAL
man knows something about that
section for that is where he was born
and spent much of his life; and he
rises to remark that what the Post
says has very large amount Of truth
in it. He has seen with.his own eyes,
not once but several times all Mem
phis thrown into commissions by a
strike of the Afro-American rousta-
Bouts on the steamboats,, and has
seen the whole business Of a good
sized city not very far from Mem:
phis utterly paralyzed, because the
Afro-American residents of the city
had been scared into the woods by
the predictions of a crazy prophecies.

section and, tells the exact truth

scHURZ SPOKE THE TRUTH.

Carl Schurz said: Here is the
crucial point: There will be move
ment either in the direction of reduc-
ing the Negroes to a permanent con-
dition of serfdom-the condition Of
the mere plantation hand, alongside
of the mule practically without any
rights of citizenship-or a movement
in the direction of recognizing him as
a citizen in the full sense of the
term"
Just what Mr.. ,Schurz predicted has
actually come to pass. The whole
south is engaged in a concerted and
vicious effort to establish serfdom.
No southern legislature meets with
out the introduction of bills trending
in that direction; segregation Of
school-funds, degrading the schools
for Afrc-Americans jim-crow laws and
grandfather clauses, and importation
of foreign labor.

Judge F'ite, in this charge, throws
good deal of light upon social con

and upon the way the law is admins
tered in that section. Society women
can, with impunity, and do gamble
drink whiskey, and do various other
scandalous things and the grand jury
does nothing. But let an Afro-Ameri
