Royal Exchange in London.
The Royal exchange in London is
still being decorated with paintings
by leading artists depicting the great
events that have brought about the
supremacy of England through the
medium Of this historic building.
Yet the many thousands who visit
the Royal exchange daily have very
little idea, says the Strand, that this
pile owes it's origin to a curious
cause, to nothing else than the chirp.
ing of grasshopper.
The chirp of this insect attracted
the attention of a little boy to baby,
the son Of poor Woman-so poor
that she could not support the child
and therefore had left him to perish
alone in large field near her howell
The little boy took the child home,
and it was brought up and eventually
blossomed into no less person than
Sir Thomas Gresham, who built the
Royal exchange.
The prosperosu merchant, to hand
down to posterity the incident which
saved his life, took the grasshopper
for his crest, and that is the reason
why that insect is placed, as every
one can see, over the Royal exchange.

MARKS SCENE OF HEROIC STRUGGLE

AT Red Bank, on the Delaware river.
stands a monument erected to COM
memorate one of the greatest deeds
of valor in the War for independence.
The year 1777 saw some of the dark
est days that the cause knew. Howe
was occupying Philadelphia. Wash
ington, with his army, was across the
Schuylk1ll, and the distractions in the
Delaware, together with the little
American forts at Billingsport, Mud
Island and Red Bank alone prevented
Howe from having things all his own
way. Foreseeing the Importance of
the Delaware the Americans had done
admirable work in making it's naviga-
ton difficult and dangerous to the
enemy.
The British naval force consisted of
eight or nine warships fully manned,
having 285 guns. This force was Or
dered to assist the Hessians in clear
ing the river. The American force
was composed of Heterogeneous col
lection of schooners and small craft,
mastering 100 cannon and pitifully
inadequate supply of men.
The Americans made a gallant de-
Tense. The British frigate Augusta
was run aground and blown up by the
Americans, and when the Merlin went
to it's assistance it met a like fate.

FLOWERS KEPT BY FREEZING.
Method Of Bringing to the North From
Tropical REGIONS.

tropical Regions.
Freezing flowers to keep them
fresh is a modern idea. They are
picked in the bud and preserved by
refrigeration while being transported.
They can travel safely in this way for
several weeks. When unpacked they
are found free of damage and when
placed in water and left alone they
slowly awaken and come into full
bloom.
1t appears that experiments are be-
ing made in South Africa with a view
to despatching them in this way in
bulk at the seasons when they are
scarce elsewhere. The flowers under
go no deterioration from their treat
ment either in the beauty of their
color or in their longevity after i'm
mersion in water. Curiously enough,
growth suspended by refrigeration
appears to resume so slowly that the
blossoms thrive in a room for a con-
siderably longer period than if placed
there Immediately after being cut in
tie garden.
The process would also serve to in
troduce to our notice many beautiful
members of the horticultural family
with which at present we are un-
familiar, such plants as the gorgeous
iris, which grows wild in luxurious
profusion in South Africa, or those
which abound on the slopes Of the
Andes in South America.

MAKES SUCCESS
in MALE PARTS

Just as soon as the clever woman
gets to the point.of stage success that
makes her want to attempt the unu-
sual and startling, her thoughts go
straight to donning mans garb. In
the old days such an impulse resulted
in some feminine Hamlet" or "Iago,"
and a host of women played both
parts with considerable success. To
have chance to wear the habiliments
of man is something that never fails
to attract the actress herself and the
feminine part of her audiences. And
there is something appealing to the
average theater-goer in the effort of
women to play male roles.
A whole row of s'Rosalinds'' and
"Violas''. may explain how, to some
extent, women get the ambition TO
wear the masculine attire.

MISCEGENATION IN THE SOUTH,

The New Orleans Times-Democrat
has had a discussion with one of it's
correspondents on miscegenation in
the south. The journal intimated
that the white people of the south
are opposed to that practice, from
which opinion the correspondent dis
sents and he seems to have the bet
ter of the argument. So "
He shows that the laws of Louisiana
furnish no adequate remedy for the
evil. Louisiana and 'other southern
states have laws prohibiting racial
intermarriage and in some there are
anti-concubinage laws, but it is a well
known fact that those laws do not do
much in the way of preventing the
existence of illicit relations between
the races. The reason is that south
ern legislation affords no protection
to the Afro-American woman nor her
half-breed offspring.

Senator Bacon makes two state
ments which to THE APPEAL seem
contradictory. First he says that the
Afro-Americans Of Georgia have &C.

erty; and next he states that the ex.
pense of the schools for their chill.
dren is borne almost exclusively by
the whites. Does he mean to assert
that that $27,00O,00O of taxable prop
erty pays no tax? THE APPEAL
conjectures that it pays pretty much
as the other property of the state
does? ..- .....

Thermal Analysis.

This is new term used to describe
a method of determining the quality
of metals by observing their rate of
cooling. It is effected by means of
pair of pillar galvanometers, SO ar
randg that they throw from mirror
beam of light whose curves are re-
corded on Photographic plate. The
instrument is particularly valuable in
the study Of intermetallic compounds.
The quality of iron, for instance, can
be determine by studying the record
ed curve. Each metal apparently has
its own characteristic cooling curve.
The Appeal. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. ;) 1889-19??, 1909-06-26

In no southern state can the black
woman resort to law to compel the
white father to support the half-breed
offspring. Should she attempt to do
so she would be laughed out of court.
Yet it would seem that such a law
would strike at the very root of the
evil.
When Louisiana adopts such a law,
the T. D. can have a good basis for it's
argument-nOt before.

much of the claim that the Afro

they assume that the burden falls al

light that show that the Afro-Ameri-

portion of the expense of supporting
the public schools.
