POWER OF THE BALLOT.
Heavy Vote of Afro Americans Cause
of Republican Defeat.

Heretofore the Negro has been blam-
ed for all the troubles that have come
to the Republicans, and that without
cause, says the Baltimore Afro-Amer.
lean Ledger. This time some of its
troubles may well be laid at his door.
He got tired of living off promises
and in number of states decided to
help the other fellow, and did. In New
York state the Negro was a factor in
the election Of Dix for governor; in
Ohio and Missouri the Negro took an
active part in the defeat of the G..
o. P and says he will do it again.

BY r. W. THOMPSON,

William Henry Lewis, leading at
torney of Boston, is to be named by
President Taft as assistant attorney
general of the United States. He will
thus confer upon Mr.. Lewis the high
est official position ever conferred upon
a colored man by the federal govern
ment. The assistant attorney general
assists in the argument of cases be-
fore the supreme court and in the
preparation of legal opinions.
Many of the most important and in
tricate assignments fall to the hands
of the assistants, and in the course Of
their work they are frequently brought
into contact with senators. members
of congress and barristers of promi-
nence who have business with the de
partment of justice
1t will thus be seen that the pro.
posed appointment is one of the utmost
responsibility and far out of the ordi-

ored people of the country has been
greatly strengthened.
The competency of Mr. Lewis is con-
ceded by the most eminent lights at
the American bar Polished in man
ner, eloquent of voice and chaste in
language, he has few peers as plead
er, and in the preparation of cases his
is a master hand He possesses charac-
ter and force of the most positive or
der, with magnetic poise and dignity,
yet is modest and unassuming in his
daily intercourse
Mr.. Lewis combines the elements
that make for efficiency of the lasting
kind and in the wider field promised
him will add new laurels to his brow.
1t is expected that his nomination will
be speedily confirmed by the senate.
MI Lewis is at present superintend-
ent of the naturalization bureau in
Boston. having been promoted from
the post of second assistant United
States district attorney upon the resig-
nation of John Casey, Esq. In both
offices he made an enviable record
He was appointed assistant district
attorney by ex-President Roosevelt in
1903, and some of the most difficult
cases known to the department have
been ably disposed of by him. In
one significant instance he received
the thanks OF Chief ]. E. Wilkie of
the United States secret service for
his superior skill in conducting case
of especial Importance in which this
branch Of the government wss deeply
interested
Mr.. Lewis is a native of Berkeley,
Va where he was born in 1868 His
father was a minister of prominence,
but not of large salary, and young
Lewis was compelled to look out for
himself in the matter Of securing an
education such as he desired. He
worked his way as waiter to earn
his college expenses after finishing
the common school branches in and
about Portsmouth. Va.
His ancestors were North Carroll
mans, and he comes from the best
stock Of that state His sister is the
wife of Dr. ]. ]. France a leading
physician of Portsmouth, Va. Mr..
Lewis graduated from Amherst col
lege in 1892 and from the law de-
partment of Harvard in 1895. He
won envlable fame as a football play

lowed him to Harvard.

A Peculiar Bird Found In the Junales
Of South America.

A Peculiar Bird Found In the Junales
of South America.
There is a queer bird in the jungles
of northern South America which is
called the 'pauji" by the natives, but
is known to science as the galeated
curasson. 1t is chiefly remarkable be-
cause it sings it's own death song.
1t does not really sing. but makes a
deep humming noise which sounds
very much like the Spanish words Eel
muerto esta aqui' the corpse lies here).
1T is while uttering this lugubrious
chant" said South American travel
er, that the paul. usually meets it's
death, for the hunter can then easily
track it to it's retreat. and it falls
victim. as the Indians say, to its own
death song"
If the paul. gets suspicious it i'm
mediately ceases humming, and that is
a sure indication to the hunter that
the bird has seen him or scents dan
ger. In such case the only thing for
the sportsman to do is to remain per-
fectly still. The bird may become re-
assured after waiting awhile and again
begin to call, "The corpse lies here" It
can then be cautiously approached and
killed.
If it is only wounded the paul. usu-
ally escapes. though it cannot fly much
better than the ordinary domestic
fowl. 1t is very feet of foot and will
Outrun the hunter until it is lost in the
dense underground Of the jungle.
In the mating season the male paul.
is the most pugnacious of birds and
will fight its own kind whenever it
meets them. Often the fight ends in
the humiliation Of both combatants.

Sherwood Took Floods Boast and

In Joseph L. Kings History of the
San Francisco Stock and Exchange
Board" is this story of Flood and
Sherwood:
In the early days, in the seventies.
quite a number Of operators would
gather together in Cahilps Office on
Montgomery street. near California.
Among them were Mr.. James c. Flood
and Mr.. Robert Sherwood. Sherwood
had 1000 Consolidated Virginia, the
stock selling at about 500. One day
Sherwood, on looking at the prices,
remarked that he was getting tired Of
that Consolidated Virginia; it did not
move much. Mr.. Flood said: What
are you growing about? If you are
tired of that stock 1 will take it off
your hands at $780," ''Sold," said
Sherwood. and the stock changed
hands.
In course of time the Nevada bank
building was erected on the corner Of
Pine and Montgomery streets. On
meeting Sherwood one day Mr.. Flood
remarked, I'VE built that Nevada
block on the profits of that 1000 shares
Of Consolidated Virginia you sold u.s."
Subsequently, in the Sierra Nevada
and Union deal, Mr.. Flood approached
Sherwood on the street and bought
from him 5000 Union at 5000 share,
the transaction footing up $1,OOO,OOO.
Sherwood built the Union block, on
the gore corner Of Pine. Davis and
Market streets. Meeting Flood one
day, he remarked, II built that Union
block with the profits of that 5000
Union l sold you.''
