For Biooer and Buster Toxic.

Tokio.-A bigger and buster TOXIC
is the dream Of Baron Sakatani, mayor
Of the capital of the Japanese Empire,
Osaka, great industrial city to the
south, has made giant strides as a
world port, and Mayor Sakatani is
anxious that Toxic should show more
rivalry to Osaka, which he calls the
Manchester of Japan. The baron is
convinced that China offers a great
field for japanese enterprise, and that
the commercial development of Toxic
is necessary SO that Japan may take
advantage of this field.

TO BRING SETTLERS SOUTH
Southern Railway to Make Splendid
Exhibits of the South at Northern
Fairs.

Washington, D.; C.-Splendid ex.
hibits of Southern farm products,
showing the alluring agricultural op.
portunities awaiting Industrious set
tiers in the territory along their lines,
will be made by the Southern Rail-
way and affiliated companies, (includ-
ing the Mobile & OHIO, the Georgia,
Southern & Florida, the Alabama
Great Southern, the Cincinnati, New
Orleans and Texas Pacific, and the
Virginia & Southwestern at three
great expositions and thirty-fve dis
trict and county fairs in the North
and Middle West during the late
summer and fall. This is the most
extensive campaign of this character
ever undertaken for attracting set
tiers to the Southern States and will
place their advantages in the most
striking way before thousands of
sturdy farmers of just the type that
is desired in the South.
Special exhibits will be made at the
Canadian National Exhibition at To-
ronto, August % to September 8, the
attendance of which touches the mil
lion mark, the famous dairy show at
Waterloo, Iowa, in November. and the
International Live Stock Exposition in
Chicago during November and De-
cember. Exhibits at district and coun.
ty fairs in New York, Connecticut,

Illinois, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Mime.
sofa, have been arranged in four cir
cults, running from August to late
in October.
The work of preparing these ex-
close Of the fair season in 1912. Since
the beginning of the new crop season,
agents have been at work with the
result that from every state on the
lines of the Southern System, there
have come most representative collec-
tons of agricultural products, includ
ing grains, grasses, vegetables, and
fruit. Large photographs showing
farm and other views in the South will
also be used. The exhibits will be in
charge of agents who are thoroughly
familiar with conditions in the South
and who will be on hand constantly
to give information desired about any
locality. Special leaflets and booklets
have been prepared and several hun
dred thousand will be placed in the
hands of prospective settlers.
These exhibits >are being made en-
tirely at the expense Of the Southern
Railway and affiliated lines. The ter
ritory served by them and the whole
Southeast will be given wide advertis
ing which should be productive OF
much good for the section.
In addition to this series of ex
hibits at Northern fairs and exposi
tons the Southern Railway and aft
Hated lines will make educational ex
hibits at large number of fairs
throughout the South, detailed an
nouncement of which will be made
later.

Washington. - Secretary Bryan's
plan for an American protectorate
over Nicaragua, providing for Ameri-

which the project has rested for two
weeks, passed a resolution asking the
Secretary of State to submit new
Nicaraguan treaty.

There has been a terrible howl all
over the country about the high cost
of living and the low wages paid and
very many people claim to be unable
to make both ends meet, no matter
what salary they receive. But it has
just been discovered that a night
Waterman in Chicago who received a
salary of $12 per week has for the
past seven years lived a dual life and
maintained two families with seven
children. And there is no telling how
long the thing would have gone on
had not one of the women in the case
become suspicious when she ran
across an envelope in her husbands
pocket on which was a memorandum
reading, stockings for the kids" So
wife No. sued for divorce and was
successful in severing the matrimonial
bonds that bound her to her resource
full but unfaithful spouse. We are not
the least bit DESTROYS of following the
example of the aforesaid night watch
man, but we would like to know how
he stretched $12 per out so as to
provide for ten people?

Vast Sum-A Battle for Higher Edu-
cation Of Afro-American People Call
ed to Help.
Fisk University, the most noted
Afro-American institution for higher
education, is facing "a serious crisis in
its attempt to raise an endowment
fund. The institution was offered $780,
900 more than two years ago by the
General Education Board, on condition
that it raise $240,O0O in addition, for
liquidation of accumulated Indebted
ness of about $4,000, for repairing and
refitting buildings, for the installation
of heating and lighting plant, and for
endowment. An amount Of 100000
was to be raised, two-thirds of which
was to go for endowment The insti-
tuition has run all these years, almost
entirely through the support, from
year to year, of white friends in the
North.
About two hundred Of these white
friends have contributed toward the
present endowment effort, but the total
amount given leaves 100000 yet to be
raised. The time limit of the initial
offer of the General Education Board
expires June LIST and the University
authorities have no assurance that this
time limit will be extended.
The alumni are carrying on loyal
rally; to raise $4,000 as their share
in the fund, but there will still remain
nearly 100000 which must be secured
from other friends. The white friends
uted generously to this fund and now
of the Afro-Americans have contrib
are asking what the Afro-Americans
propose to do. The authorities of the
University are making az nationwide
appeal to the Afro-Americans to rally
to the rescue of this institution which
for forty-seven years has offered all
that is highest and best in education
and culture to the Afro-Americans Of
the land. They want 100000 Afro
Americans to send them at least 81 be-
tween now and June LIST. Checks and
money orders should be made payable
to Fisk University and may be sent to
the editorial Office of this paper or di-
rectly to Fisk University at Nashville,
