"La Trinacria," one of the Lead
ing Italian Journals of Pitts
burg, Pleads for Sane and
Sensible Treatment for Ital
ians Unjustly Accused of being
Allied with this Society.
There is hardly a murder in which
an Italian is involved In some way
or other that is not at once,
thoughtlessly and recklessly attrib
uted to tho so-called "Black Hand"
Society by tho American news
papers. This seems to be their pet
hobby and they feel that a good day's
work has been-accomplished when they
announce In bi;r, rod glaring letters
some crime committed by the "Black
ITunil" soim iliing w hich exists only In
tin -ir imagination in fact it is a de-lu-ion
that bus uoMf-ii a stronghold on
th. ii' mind. Tho public is heartily
t,ic!i i'f Duaiiing of the "Black Hand,"
''Cmiorni," "Mat;:!," etc. Tlu'yno long
er vike any stock i'i such foolish news
item-, theref.ii'n it U about tune for
such newsprpurs to give something
original to (iive facs that aro true
tier old tactics htfv.i bi-i-n worked to
death. Of course wo do not want to be
understood as saying that this is done
intentionally in every instance for a
great part of it is attributable to
sensational and incompetent reporters
who desire to show their altortness and
ability in writing up cases and to a few
detectives and policemen who have a
craving appetite to see their names In
print, and thus make statements un
warranted by the facts Jand circum
stances. If these newspapers would pause for a
moment and seriously consider the ef
fect of such articles, they would indeed
be cautious and refrain from such mor
bid and gruesome publications unless
there were reasonable and probable
cause for the belief in the "truth and
existence" of tho Black Hand organiza
tion and its connection with the par
ticular crime then in question. The
purpose and scope of the newspaper is a
grand one, and as an educational factor,
exerts a most powerful influence on the
reading public, who, strange as It may
seem, are prono to believe mora readily
what they see in print than what they
hear by word of mouth this is only
another reason why the newspapers
should be careful. Take for example,
the murder of Frank Hiccl in Bloom
field, whose dead body was found last
Monday morning with a knife wound
over his heart. The Pittsburg news
papers' at once came out with "Black
Hand!" "Vendetta!" etc. Some papers
said he was a vagrant, others that be
was tho leader of the Pittsburg
Sicilians, In fact they conflicted with
each other on every material fact in the
crime and they cannot all be true
someone lied, and in every instance
disparaging terms are used. Their
motto seems to be "False news is better
than no news." In their efforts to out
rival each othor they lose sight of the
truth, dish out unfounded statements,
distort the true object of journalism,
create more prejudice between Italians
and Americans, estrange the good-will
and friendship that can exist between
them, tramples under foot the true
American policy which is to encourage
the Italians of this country for Ameri
can development and citizenship. For
no concern of this country is more
momentous and urgent than the dis
tribution and education of her foreign
eloment and such "yellow" articles
will not accomplish it.
"La Trinacria" made a careful In
vestigation of the Bloomfield murder
and learned that the dead man was no
vagrant nor the leader of the Pittsburg
Sicilians he is an Abruzzese, having
been born. In AtH.to, Province of
Aquila, (Abruzzo) ami had been in this
country nearly 15 ais, and about 2
years ago was a hv.i-'inder for Bruno
Posteraro.
Instead of the "13. ..etc Hand" it was
found that Frank Riccl, a laborer, came
to his death through an affair involving
drink and women for James Waters, is
now accused of the murder. Can the
Pittsburg newspapers explain why on
Monday they connected the crime to
that hobby of theirs, the "Black Hand,"
and on Tuesday announced the arrest of
James Waters, an Irishman, accused
of the murder? Did he belong to the
Black Hand? Pittsburg La Trinacria.

READING THE TREE.
How he Forenlor lii-tit Hh l.lre II la
lory In Ill-lull.
Tim forester rends the history of a
tree in great detail, says the American
Magazine. After taking out a few
"borings" to the center of the tree at
dioVront heights and counting the
ring on them he may spin you such a
yarn as this:
"Tills tree Is V0 years old (150 rings
at the base). I luring the first live
years It grew only seven Indies (143
rings, seven Inches from the base).
Evidently It then began to touch
crowus with other saplings, for It took
a spurt aud put on fifteen inches a
year steadily till It was forty years
old (forty rings forty-four and one-half
feet above the ground), it was not
growing as fust as its neighbors, how
ever, for at this point It begun to be
overshadowed, and Its growth declined
for the next ten yours to as little as
four Inches a year (forty-live rings at
forty-eight feet and fifty at fifty feet).
Just lu time to save lis life something
happened to Its big neighbors, pre
sumably a windstorm, am! it resumed
a steady growth of about six inches a
year, having passed its fastest growing
time. Its growth In thickness doesn't
seem to have varied much, about an
Inch every three years. lint It grew
faster and faster in volume, of course,
as Its height increased n little over a
cubic foot a year iu Its prime of life, I
should judge. About thirty years ago
it reached mntuiily and stopped grow
ing In height (thirty rings at the top
of tho main stem), mid now It is ap
proaching old ago (the last rings are
pretty thin). Hold ot a minute here's
a false ring, twenty, forty, forty-six
years back; two very thin rings
see Instead of one thick one; moans
that something interrupted the growing
season, probably a late frost."

Drras of a Dnudy of the Enrlr Nine
teenth Century.
A cure for the confirmed roller
against modern dress might bo n course
of Inspection through a Hie of old
fashion magazines or the perusal of
such accounts as are given by the
author of "Sketches of I.ynu." The
description is thnt of a suit worn lu
the first part of the nineteenth century.
The boots were nu Important article
of dress. The toes were made as broad
as the ball of the foot, with the cor
ners well rounded, giving the shoe the
resemblance to the snout of a shovel
nosed shark. They were very snug and
required strong straps. In order to get
Into a fashionable pair the heel of the
stocking was well soaped and some
pulverized soap sprinkled Into tho boot.
The length of time it took to got one
on depended on the strength of the
owner and tho strap.
The stylish overcoat displayed five
capes, one above the other. The trou
kuis were expected to" fit as tight as the
skin. .lust how they were put on Is a
mystery. The coat was especially snug
under the t-leeves, and tho velvet collar
scraped up the back of the head. The
rninlet overcoats after a little wear,
became as si hi' ns birch bark.
The thing worn about the neck was
called a "Stock. This name was appro
priate In lti suggestion of an instru
ment of punishment. The stock was
from three to six Inches high, and was
made stiff. A man was forced to look
straight ahead. Only by careful man
agement could he see a little on either
side. About halfway between his eyes
and ears two little points of collar
stuck up like toothpicks.
Rullled bosoms and wristbands fin
ished the costume, with the addition of
a tall silk hat. When Inclosed in this
manner, with a dash of attar of roses
on his hnndkcrchlef, the man of the
period was considered irresistible.
TOO HUMBLE A HUSBAND.
PoKltlon of Prince Albert, Royal
Consort of Uueen Victoria.
A woman kioked up witli a laugh
from a heavy volume she was reading.
"Now I know," she snld, "why Queen
Vlctorln wiib so fond of the prince con
sort. This husband did not merely re
gard h(s wife as his equal; be regarded
her as Immeasurably his superior, say
ing Uiat It was his duty to sink his
own individual existence in her. Lis
ten to this letter that Prince Albert
wrote to tho Duke of Wellington. Here
is a champion of woman's rights In
deed. Don't you think, though, It Is
going too far for a man to humble
himself so low as this?"
She (hen read from her book In a
sarcastic voice:
My Dear Duke In the question whether
It Is advlsablo that I should take the
command of the army I have come to the
conclusion that my decision ought entire
ly to be guided by the consideration
whether It would Interfere with or OHHl.it
my position of consort to the sovereign.
This position Is a most peculiar and deli
cate one. While a female sovereign has
a great many disadvantages In compari
son with a kin,',-, yet If she Is married and
her husband understands and does his
duty her position, on tho other hand, has
many compensatory advantages and in
the lonq run will be found to be stronger
even than that of the mnle sovereign.
But this requires that the husband should
entirely sink his own Individual existence
In that of his wife and that he should aim
at no power by himself or for himself,
being content to be the husband of the
queen, the private secretary of the sov
ereign and the tutor of the royal chil
dren. .Japoleon was a major at twenty
four, general of brigade at twenty-five
and commander lu chief of the army
of Italy at twenty-six. He achieved
all his victories aud was finally over
thrown before the age of forty-one.
Frederick the Great ascended the
throne at twenty-eight, termluntod the
first Slleslan war at thirty and the sec
ond at thirty-three. Ten years later,
with a population of but 5,000,000. he
triumphed over a league of more than
100.000,000 people.
