Wealth Of the Nations.


An interesting study is to note the
various methods in which men of diff
ferent nationalities carry their worldly
wealth. The Englishman usually car
rles silver and copper all loose in his
trousers pocket, pulls out handful of
the mixture and selects the coin he
needs. The American carries his wad
of bills in long narrow pocket.book,
In which the greenbacks lie hat. The
Frenchman makes use of leather
purse, with no distinguishing eharac-
teristlcs. The German uses one gaIly
embroidered In silks by the fair hands
of some Gretchen. The half-cIvllized
capitalist from some torrid South
American city carries his dollars in
a belt with cunningly-deylsed pockets
to battle the gentleman with very light
fingers. The italian of the poorer
classes ties up his little fortune in
a gaily-colored handkerchief secured
with many knots, which he secretes
In some mysterious manner about his
clothes. A similar course has charms
for the Spanlard, while the lower-class
Russian exhibits preference for his
boots or the lining of his clothes as
a hiding place for his savings.

Colored fighter
'However. the ministers of this
state are not so rnuch opposed to the
stage of the fight between Benny
Leonarl and Lew Tender as they are
against the proposed bout between
Dempsey and Wills, and for that
reason they intend, so I am told, a
far more bitter argument against the
holding of a mixed bout for the
heavyweight championship.
Personally l think Dempsey and
Wills should settle their differences
in state aside from New Jersey. and
intend to do all in my power to
prevent staging the bout here"
The attitude of the New Jersey Box
ing Commissioner is but another eff
fort to find loophole through which
Dempsey may jump to keep from
meeting Wills. 1t would seem to
the casual observer that there Is a
concerted movement on foot to as
sure the white race of maintaining
the title belt for heavyweights. The
constant lodging of Dempsey himself
and the strategic moves of his many
white friends are but Indications that
they fear the crown will pass to a
Colored man If Dempsey should meet
Wills in championship bout.

Tree MuskmeIon Of Hawaii.

One of the most interesting fruits
Of Hawaii is the papala, or muskmeon,
which grow on trees. This fruit,
which sometimes reaches weight Of
eight or ten pounds, is the most widely
used of any on the Islands, being eaten
for breakfast In almost every home.
In general appearance it greatly re-
sembles nuskmelons of the casaba
type, and is bright yellow when ripe.
1t Is filed with seeds, but these are
smaller and more numerous than in
musSmelon. The trees on which this
fruit is grown thrive IN almost any kind
Of soil, and the commercial plantations
are usually in rocky districts where
other crops cannot be grown at u
profit. Occasionally these trees attain
height of 30 feet, but as rule are
much lower. 10 feet probably being
the average. In form they consist of
straight trunk crowned by cluster
Of large leaves, with the fruit beneath

BLACK MEMS WORDS.
(By Charleh Cain for Asso-
ciated Negro Press.


Colored editors, Colored preach
ers, Colored teachers, lawyers, bust
ness men asd politicians, all are
shoutin about the interest of theid
race. A. great chorus in voume; but
is ia great in eject?
Yes" indignant Colored men will
say, and they will point to their
school and churches and tell me how
many banks they have founded since
the Civil War, and how much money
Colored people have, and how many
newspapers.
Their words are true, and show
progress, foom the cid slavery. But
they are slave words, words learned
from the lips of a master, white
mems words. For they reveal only
two thouhts in the Blach Mans mind:
desire to get as far rs possible from
the old slave days. and a desire to
become, as nearly as possible, imi-
tation of the white man.
Again comes the indignant chorus:
I'VE do Not want to be limitations of
the white man. We want to remain
black, and show the white thaa we
are as good as he.
True: but how? By doing as he
does; by judgisg your people by
white standing, white notion of sin
and righteousness, duty and progress
and civilizations. That is the way
Black men, with hardly an excep-
ton, have chosen. And | think it is
a way thaa will never lead tire race
from subsection and injustice.
i am not trying to preach. | am
not Colored man, and cannot tell
the Colored man what is best for
him. But am going to ask three
questions.
1-Canu the white mans way of life
make the black man happy?
2-Will the blacks, by learning the
white civilization, make the white
respect them and treat them as
equals?
3-What value has the white civiliza-
ton fer white men? The first quos-
ton is for Colored people TO answer.
To the second, as as white man
Yes. Some whites are angered by the
Colored mans adoption of their ways,
must say No; at lesat 1 cannot say
but those whites, the haters do not
matter. What does the so called Ii
beral white man think of the Color
ed mas who learns his ways? He
thinks, and sometimes says: "Why
trese Negroes seem to be quiae in
tellgent, some of them, quite teacr-
able. A. little While leadership. a ut
tie white guidance. and theyy give a
pretty fair account of themselves. We
must look after them. We have a
great responsibility.
That attitude Does matter. That is
the attitude that MAKES the white
race hold all other races in sub
lection, with clear conscience. And
every time the Colored press echoes
the white Americans prejudice, every
time it measures theirs with the
American rule and JUDGES peoples
morals by white American standards,
every time it parrots the white mans
meaningless words about American
Equality, American Liberty, Ameri-
can Justice, 1t justifies little the
white Americans superior attitude.
For parrotted words are not words
Of free mind, you thai 1t is not, ahat

signed by Providence to be a writer

all absent from his letters. He could
talk upon paDer to himself, not to
others. It was, after all the cipher
which kept his style always fresh and
fearless. When he expressed himself

acutely conscious that II was Samuel
