This is the first public utterance
that we have noted as coming from

cIreuIatIon Of the Blood.

The mileage OF the blood circulation
reveals some astounding facts IN our
personal history. Thus IL has been cal
culated that. assuming the heart to
beat 60 times a minute at ordinary
heart pressure. the blood goes at the
rate of 2O7 yards in the minute, or
seven miles per hour. 16S miles per
day and $500 miles per year. II a
man of 81 years of age could have one
single blood corpuscle floating in mis-
blood ali his life It would have trav-
eled in that same time 5.150.SOS miles.

THE NEGRO As AN ISSUE.

The colored people of this country
have no need to be discouraged if We
are to judge by the signs upon the
horizon in both northern and south
ern climes. The very malignity Of
the attacks upon us by the white
men who have an antipatby to US
has resulted in arousing other white
men. who possessed latent feelings
Of sympathy for us. to come forth
and express themselves.
The surprise of the new century
was the appearance of Hon. Henry
Watterson of Kentucky, who spoke
at Carnegie Hall, Friday night. jan
nary l7th, 1908 upon the subject:
"The Negroes Future" But then the
preliminary part of the story is best
told by the telegraphic dispatches.
Here they are:

intellectual leader whose activities

pathetic expression to the needs. aims
and hopes of the colored race before
a noteworthy audience at Carnegie
Hall tonight. To these personally
delivered addresses were added mes
sages from Cardinal Gibbons and
British Ambassador James Bryce.
With unanimity these men advocated
further opportunities for this less
fortunate people through popular sup
port OF Tuskegee Institute. in the
interests OF which the meeting was
held.
)" We can never AFFORD to lose sight
OF the fundamental objects alike Of
enlightened self-interest, OF philan-
thropy, and OF PATRIOTISM said Gov.
Hughes. These are first, to give OPP
portunity and stimulus. so that each
man may make the most OF himself.
A few centuries ago the ancestors OF
most OF us were living a savage life
in the forests OF Northern Europe.

tant being that il is the first of its
kind ever attempted by the Negro in
