to be so poor as to have to beg for a living is
promptly turned out OF the principality. There
are no paupers in Monaco.
In renewing the concessions in 1898 for a long
term of years the prince stipulated for the pay
ment of a sum Of 81, 900, 900 from the Monaco Sea
Baths company in installments over a period of
Is years, and, furthermore, he draws an annuity
Of $250,000. Moreover, the company has to con
tribute" substantially to certain works of public
utility" carried out in~the principality.
That the company should be able to do all this
and still make larger profits than ever is surely
an eloquent testimony to the blindness OF the
'punters" who frequent Monte Carlo in such num-
bers during the winter season. The gambler
never goes on strike, and neither wars, nor fnan-
cial crises, nor pestilences, nor the everincreas-
ing cost Of living seem to interfere with the
steadily advancing prosperity OF the Monaco Sea
Baths company. It is only loss of time to at
tempt to persuade the "punter" that he can never
really win. and that, in the long run--try any
system he likes-he is mathematicaly bound to
lose. II you told him that only one in every
thousand gamblers can hope to win substantially
he would still be convinced that he was the thou
sandth.
1t has been estimated that an average OF some
thing like 800, 900 in hard cash falls on the green
tables daily throughout the year, and not a sea-
son passes that one does not meet with hundreds
of people who have come to Monte Carlo to at
tempt the impossible, namely, to seek a fortune
at the tables.
Inls year the dividend was raised from 800
francs per share to $50 francs. The share, the
nominal value of which is 500 francs, or 800, Is
now quoted on the Paris Bourse at $500 francs
Roulette made the fortune of the Blanc amily,
who are now multimillionaires while at Monte
Carlo, and. indeed, throughout the little princi-
pality, M. Camille Blanc is only second in impor-
lance to the prince.
With two machines and a few hundred pounds
in notes the Brothers Blanc applied to the prime
minister for permission to start operations in
one of the rooms at the hotel.
The following year, 1S43, the Brothers Blanc
obtained from the landgrave of Hesse-Homburg
the exclusive right to carry on public games Of
chance In his dominion. for which they agreed
to pay the sum OF $4,000 per annum, and under
took to build a "Kursaal," and lay out a public
promenade. Then it was that the newspapers OF
Europe began to boom the waters of Homburg
as a certain cure for all troubles of the diges-
tive organs, and for liver complaints, and the

Creamy Cocoa.

To make a delicious, creamy cup of
cocoa OF chocolate, add a pinch of
salt to the usual ingredients. When
the whole comes to a boil beat with
a Dover G beaten for two minutes;
the scum, which is so unsightly and
distasteful, will not form. A marsh
mallow placed in each cup before pour
ing the cocoa rises to the top and
takes the place of whipped cream as
well as giving a delightful flavor.

This was the theme that thrilled
through the address of Booker T.
Washington when he spoke at Chicago
before the convention Of the Interna-
tional Sunday School association in
Medinah temple.
Mr.. Washington proved to be one
af he most popular speakers that
have addressed the convention and his
appeal to the Sunday school leaders to
help the negro and to give him a
chance brought repeated applause
from the delegates and visitors who
filled the big hall to o~verflowing.
What the black man needs is the
old time religion" said the speaker.
That's the theology l want to AXE to
my people. The negro is better of
close to the soil and in the South, and
l want to keep him there. If you will
bring the Sunday school to him. Take
the old theology to him, the theology
that says, Thou shalt not steal Thou
shalt not KILL Thou shalt not bear
false Witness Thou shalt not commit
adultery

tunate for a IA to have problems to

The resolutions committee reported
to the convention and resolutions ia

ton of marriage and divorce, a single

laws against commercialized vice, lot
teries and gambling, c~onsoring of NOV

destruction of the liquor traffic, tho

A thousand persons gathered in
Epiphany church in G street at Wash
ington to bid farewell to James. For
forty-one years James, the colored sex
ton, had rung the chapel bell that
called the Pensioners and greeted
their arrival with a happy face. He
was accorded honors at his funeral
service that no person ever buried
from that church has received. The
aged negro was given the distinction
of having a funeral address preached
for him, as on burial occa-
sions are never given in the Eposco-
pal service, Five hundred colored peo-
pie attended the service and were
ushered into their places by the usual
church attendants.

The recent visit of DR.. Booker T.
Washington to this city and the splen-
did address which he delivered
brought to mind an incident of a few
weeks ago, relates the Chicago News.
A young negro Of what might be called
the diletante class, was heard saying
to a newly arrived stranger:
Don't tell any one in Chicago that
you are from Tuskegee institute"
To this advice the stranger without
hesitation replied to the effect that he
was proud to be identified with an in
%stitution hat meant so much construc-
lively in the life of his race, and that
any one who was conversant with the
needs of the people served by the
school could not be disloyal to it.
The former young mar did not nee
essarily mean harm, but unfortunate
ly he misrepresented the spirit of this
great city. Chicago, sharing the Amer
lean ideal, is in harmony with move
ments everywhere which makes for
human uplift, and her representative
citizens are as eager to encourage in
Alabama as well as in Illinois any
organization representing an invest
ment in useful, nondependent citizen
ship.
The Tuskegee institute is not only
an efficient school for training the
negro in manual arts and in agricul-
ture. 1t is primarily a school for hui
man culture, indeed for race culture,
considering the important part 1t has
played and is destined to play in the
education of the negro race,
1t took the world a long time to &C
knowledge the truth that physical con-
troll and the workman's skill in the
manipulation Of his tools and the
practise of his art are as essential
contributions to human welfare and
to appreciate fine are from an academ'
ic point of view or to translate class
ical writings or decipher fascinating
problems in mathematics. Those who
from aparthy, Incidence or prejudice
have not kept abreast with the trend
of education and the progress Of the
glorious humanitarian movements Of
this day are the ones who date upon
what a living age has buried in books
They offer no helping hand in the SO
luton of vital problems.
The Tuskegee institute is an active
agency not only in education but in SO
cial amelioration. Truly there can bt
no complete appreciation of the worl
that Doctor Washington is doing 70,
this country if the appalling need TO
this work is overlooked. AS this neeC
is realized so will the friends Of tn,
work increase, together with the en-
enlargement and inspiration Of hi
benevolent supporters.
