Fleeting centuries are as but a day in the all absorbing corner of the Bdu- cation building at the Jamestown ex- position. wherein is displayed the mag- nificent exhibit of the Commercial mu- seum of Philadelphia, under the aus- pices of the. Pennsylvania state commis- sion. There one may in imagination barter with the Phoenicians of B00 years before Christ In the commercial exchange of pearls, gold dust, tin, ala- baster, malachite, figs, dates, almonds, fine linen, myrrh, sandalwood, dragon blood. olive and palm ofl and slaves, samples of each of these and many other articles of Phoenician commerce being on exhibition In this section, the slaves being represented by minia- ture figures, and it is noticeable that their color was not always black. Thus the commerce of the passing centuries passes in review, and to the limited articles of trade of the Phoeni- clans are added in the early centuries of | the Christian era such things as silk, hog bristles, cork, lemons and oranges, tea, rice, beads, etc. There the Romans appear as the bright and shining stars ! in the commercial world, the Phoenl- clans and Egyptians having given way to the sway of the Caesars. With the Romans came such articles of com- merce as salt. wrought iron, brass, sheepskin, ivory, camels’ hair, raisins, pongee silk, aloes, oak galls, honey, figs, splkenard and dates. The exhibit of articles representing the trade of nations, interesting In the extreme though it Is, would not be complete without the accompanying exhibit, showing by photographic rep- resentation and model the various methods or means of transportation of commerce past and present. Upon the walls of the section allotted to this exhibit are hung representations of the handcarts of Japan, the laden ponies of Asin Minor, the yak wagons of Tibet, the ox carts of India, the | dromedaries of Siam, the camels of | Egypt, the dogs and reindeer of Alas ka and Siberia, the llamas of the An- | des, elephants of Calcutta and scores of other equally interesting and unique | representations of commercial ways | and means. Then there are reproduc tions of fast flying freight trains of different nations and models of watet craft used In commerce from ancien to modern times. These models are in themselves worthy of hours of study. There are Venetian galleys, Arabian dhows, the drakers of the Norsemen, Egyptiar punts, Carthaginian galleys, Malay proas, Bolivian balsas, Japanese junks Phoenician galleys, Babylonian ses horses, Egyptian triremes, Spanish gal | leons and caravels, Italian nef, Dutclt galleots, Polynesian sea camels, New Caledonia prahu and American clip pers. The exhibit is one of compari son and contrast, a grand lesson in the study of commerce and commercia relations, the whole giving a vivid im pression of the mutual interdependence of nations of the present day. THE U. OF P. EXHIBIT. Pennsylvania's Great College Wel Represented at Jamestown. Guarded by two bronze "wrestlers and artistically decorated with the col lege colors, the exhibit of the Univer sity of Peunsylvania in the Educatior bullding at the Jamestown expositior is one of the most complete in the di vision. The exhibit occupies one entire cor ner of the building. Along one side are heavy bookcases containing specl men volumes from the university i brary. On top of the cases are Rumer ous busts and bronze figures, many of priceless value, while on the wal above is a very fine collection of maps charts and pictures illustrative of the work of the institution. High up on the wall on a little shel is 8 massive bust of Benjamin Frank lin, founder of the university. On on¢ of the bookcases there are two bronze figures modeled after statues found ix the ruins of Herculaneum, which was destroyed by Vesuvius. What has proved of great Interest is a model of the first college buildings, plain and crude, constructed in the early days of the institution. In con. trast with these buildings are shown pictures of the magnificent equipment of the present day, which is equal to that of any like university In the country. UE KILLED A POLICEMAN Cumberland, Md., Oct. 7~The first lynching in the history of Cumber- land, which occurred Sunday morning, has been the topic of discussion, though scarcely of condemnation. The shooting of Policeman August Baker, on Thursday night, by William Burns, a negro desperado, while the latter was arrest, created a great deal of excitement, owing to the excellent reputation of the officer and his well known kindly disposition. His death on Saturday morning was fol- lowed’ by threats against the negro, these coming as much from those of his own race as from the whites. Few, however, thought a lynching pos- sible, and the police paid no attention to the rumors that were afloat. Only Deputy Sheriff Adam Hendley was at the jail when a crowd of less than a bundred men, a few of whom were disguised in one way or another, ap- peared and demanded the keys. These being refused, a telegraph pole was used as a battering ram and entrance to the building was forced. Other ne- groes, in neighboring cells, were care- ful to guide the lynchers to that of Burns’, and here again the battering ram was used. The lynchers found their victim crouching behind his cot, ‘ and, seizing him by the feet, dragged him up and down stairs and into the of Judge A. Hunter Boyd and the lice. Judge Boyd called the crowd to undertaking stablishment, and 10,000 persons are estimated to have viewed it.

Undoubtedly one of the most miserable shams in the history of State legi<lation has recently been accomplished by Geor- gia. Great stress hae heen laid upou the face and is is clothed with importance, since it tends to show the emotioual signs of the | timex that Georgia bas jumped from local option to Prohibition. Now by law lignor | * cannot be made, or sold, or given away, and even the drug stores are prohibited from supplying to the sick or the dying any stimulant with she exception of pure aleobol. If a physician finds that cham- pagne, now go frequently used in the sick 195 and in hospitals, or brandy is ueces- y the law demands that the patient shall die rather than liquor presoription «hall be filled at the drug store. The crafty politicians who are riding into powerand graft on the top wave of this prohibition sentiment in the South in their zeal even struck at the religion of onr Lord and Saviour, since the law forbids the ad- ministration of wive in churches in con- nection with the holy sacrament. Bat bow came Georgia to enact such a sweeping interdict? There is always one side to a story and this one has two. To pass prohibi it had to be based upon race prejudice. Liquor was too good for the ‘‘nigger’’ and bis foster r, the ‘poor white trash.’’ Stop it, and ‘nigger’ crime against womanhood will cease was the Arjuitions, and it caught the minds of emotional thoughtless men or women. Bat Prohibition could not be passed in Georgia either on moral or temperance grounds which bas been claimed. It was only passed upon the the promise to rob the ‘‘nigger’’ of his right to vote. It pass- | dpi a vote of en to one, und mark you v s legislature age De po negro. ere ey — ay deal and a bargain that was manipulated and ae- complished by the politioiune both within and without she church. Now mark again the subsequent action of this same Georgia Legislature. Within a week following its hysterical adoption of probibiven by a vote entirely unanimous t passed a olub aot taxing every social olab which d lignors to its mem- hers three handred dollars. And she politicians now smile while the deceived clergyman and bis church mem- ber who were used in the dram to rob the negro of his vote are measuring the breadth aud the depth of their bonco. But the hotels do not smile, nor does the farmer who all his life has been making his own addition of a drop of honey. Upon the ey of Sy. 1908, the bar of every hotel moet be closed—even the rooms as to liquors, the drug stores save as so aleobol. But around the corner, or at the next croms-road will be the club. Home life vexs year will not be known to Georgia, in so far as the men are cancerned, and it will soon reach she club lite of the wom- an. How easy to form a club. Rent a room, charge each member filsy cents for his key. He takes in his friends, pays for the drinks, and afterwards divides the ex This is not gentlemanly, but it ie the pace set by hypoerisy. Every PoE member of the Legislature voted for the $300.00 club tax hill; every ‘dry’ member did likewise. Why? Be- cause they thought the negroes could not form olnbe and pay a tax of $300.00. But we aball see! In Georgia since 1865 they bave advane- ed more than the white race, hence the jealousy, the persecution, a State’s bypoe- orisy. “Pack” recently published a fine car- toon on its front It was the fat man of Georgia, raised on hie liquor, drinking to the lean man from Maine. Georgia was imbibing from a bottle marked ‘‘Lemon Phosphate,’’—the man from Maine, tall, lean and lank, was imbibing from a bottle marked “Cold "Tea.” And thus hypocrisy, throogh the laws assailing persoral liberty, extends from Maine to Seorvia.
