SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 9, 1911 QUIT BEGGING FOR SOCIAL EQUALITY Says Governor Donaghey of Arkansas, the Irishman: "You Have No Business Wanting to Sit in White Folks' Cars, Theatres, and Parks; You Must Not and We Will Not Allow You to Do So." Or in Words to That Effect. INSTRUCTIONS TO NEGRO BUSINESS LEAGUE Praise Slaves for Protecting White Women in War Times, But Refuse to Let Their Sons and Daughters Have the Same Rights' His People, the Irish, Are Contending for in Ireland—Will Not Allow White Men to Marry Their Black Consorts. 12 Little Rock, Ark., Aug. 16.—"Don't waste your time running around begging for social equality; be contented with the progress you are making industrially," the advice given by Governor Donaghey in his address of welcome to the National Negro business Men's League here today, Governor Donaghey and Booker T. Washington entered the Auditorium and were given an ovation 1,000 Negroes lasting fifteen min. The governor praised Negroes a characteristic of loyalty asown toward their masters during the Civil War and urged Negroes particularly in the South to give attention to industrial training and to put a soft pedal on "equality notions." The above clipping from one of our local papers makes us open our eyes to see how a Governor of a state would have the gall to stand before a body of 1,000 intelligent college men and tell them they must be "Niggers" and ride in Jim Crow cars and must not try to rise in the scale of life because, if they do, it would be offensive to the Southern and many of the Northern white people in the United States. Of course, the governor must make his living and if he contends for the uplift of the Negro, then his business would be cut short and perhaps he might be run out of his state. We, the young Negroes, contend for every right (nothing reserved) that is given foreigners in this country. We further contend for a law throughout America for the protection—especially in the South—of the colored woman to legalize the 6,000 white men in this state who are living with colored women and protect the innocent child for the white rapist's hands. We further contend for an unrestricted ballot, and we demand a fair distribution of the constitution of the United States among all citizens. When the first Mulato child was born on the shores of Virginia social equality began. Was the child born to the white woman by a Negro man? Not so. It was the offspring of the intelligent white man, who forced the slave into social equality and gave birth to a being whom he sold, his own blood. Now his highness comes forth and asks 14,000,000 Negroes to keep their mouths shut while the white man continues to raise Mulatto children out of wedlock, and then point his hand at the Negro race and say: "You must ride in the last two seats in our street cars; you must sleep in a Pililan car; you must not ride on the same deck of a ship, nor eat in the same restaurant, nor drink in the same saloon with me because you are a race of degenerates, your women are lewd and we cannot afford to have our (white) women and children associate with you." Such dope as this, it is claimed, was handed down to the business league. Let the business men of color of America do as they may. They may accept the governor's proposition or they may not. But whatever course they take the young black American will not stand for it. Will Contend for Equality. We. the young black Americans, will contended for social equality as long as there is one drop of the white man's blood in our veins, and as long as there lives on these shores a Mulatto man and woman. You have raised the banner and we will keep it raised. You have ruined our women, shot down our men and burned them at the stake, and for all this we contend for social equality. Social equality has not ruined South America, the West Indies, England, Germany or France, and we are doubly sure it will not ruin the fundamentals of the American government. Has there been any disorder about Jack Johnson and his white wife in Europe. No, not one thing. Instead, he and she were and are still being wined in the leading homes of the best blood of Europe. If the South would turn its attention more to inventions, manufactories and education it would find itself far in advance of what it is at present. THE MT. GLENWOOD CHAUTAU QUA ASSOCIATION.

Ready to Disfranchise His Own Blood Kin—the Negro, to Find Favor With the Rest of His Fellow Murderers and Rapists to Be Governor of the "State of Georgia." KEEP THE NIGGER DOWN We Must Keep the "Nigger" in the Field, Keep Him in the Chaln Gang, Keep Him in the Jim Crow Car, and Still Debauch His Women to Save Our Fair Ones. By Bloomfield Bergen. (Special to The Chicago Defender.) Waycross, Ga., Sept. 1.—The Hon. Hoke Smith, in a paper prepared to be delivered at Waycross, Ga., but which he could not deliver because of his sudden illness, sets forth plainly the intention of the framers and supporters of the law disfranchising the Negroes in Georgia and for that purpose portrays the intentions of the South in the question. In the course of his remarks it is reported to have said: "Our forefathers sought to establish for us a system by which the people at the ballot box should rule. By this power they were to protect themselves BEFORE HIS STREET A HAREM SKIRT PASSED. genes taken by Defender artist of the The boys will re against injustice, and inspired by this power, they were to broaden the opportunity of the individual citizen. The progressive democracy regard the ballot as a right almost sacred. To preserve it and its purity, to exclude debauching influences from reaching the man who uses the ballot, to inspire the individual voter with a lofty patriotism which will control his use of the ballot—these are the principles of progress which we recognize as essential to obtaining those benefits which should come from the ballot to a free people." Under hoke Smith's rule the Negro is not a citizen, simply a "debauching influence" that reaches "the man who uses the ballot." The white man, of course, inasmuch as he says, "The true policy in the United States should be the development of the white race, with no mixture in matters of government by the yellow, the brown or the black races," all of which goes to show that it is not because the Negro is so purchasable as is made out, any more than anybody else, but the fact that the white man must rule even where the Negroes outnumber them. Think of it! McIntosh county, Georgia, has always been controlled by the Negroes, and Negro representatives have been in the Georgia legislature, each succeeding term up to the time Hon. Hoke Smith took his seat as governor of Georgia. The Negro outnumbers the white two to one, and yet, simply because one or two white men want to rule the whole business, the Negro must be pushed aside for them, the Negro must pay taxes to support men who spend the money to benefit the white men. If it simply was the ignorant, purchasable Negro, who was to be deprived of that sacred right of which Hoke Smith says "the progressive democracy regard the ballot as a right almost sacred," why, then, cannot those 130 voters in McIntosh vote in the state primary? As the thing stands today the voters are almost evenly divided in that county, and those who could vote can easily influence the primary elections so as to be a benefit to the Negro citizens of the county, but so as to allow the white man to rule in the county, Negroes must be excluded in the primary, but white Republican voters who agree to abide by the party decision can vote. Hon. Hoke Smith says: "McIntosh county has for the first time been able to hold a white primary." The county is really a Negro county, a farming district where Negroes live and have their own farms and seem to be doing well. It is robbery; yes, gross injustice to take away the county from them inasmuch, too, as according to Hoke Smith, "Our forefathers sought to establish for us a system by which the people at the ballot box should rule." Here is one instance where the majority of citizens are not protected in their right to rule, and according to Hoke Smith's reasoning the citizens are not able to protect themselves. "By this power they were to protect themselves against injustice, and inspired by this power they were to broaden the opportunity of the fndi ```markdown ``` vidual citizen." Instead of broadening the opportunity of the individual citizen that should control they seek to enslave him and cut off his opportunity. I ask any fair minded man, is this right? Is it fair? The sole aim of the disfranchisement law is to exclude the Negro, educated or ignorant, so as to give the white man a chance to control affairs under all and any circumstances, for the Hon. Hoke Smith says and points out that they are "confronted with the national constitution, which prevented such state action, we have still given you a constitutional provision which excludes the great bulk of the Negros." In other words, we made it lawful to keep 200,000 Negroes from registering and voting, and only permitted 10,000 to register, and we have successfully excluded them from the primary in that we make it a white man's opportunity to broaden the individual citizen in the white race. "The Negro has been permanently eliminated politics in Georgia. There is not now country, city, town or milia district where Negroes have registered sufficiently to outnumber the whites." It is a shame and disgrace on the United States permit such things to happen. They can meddle into the business of every other county in the world but when it comes to protecting its own citizens it cannot do it, unless they meet up with a howl from the affected state that successfully keeps Uncle Sam back. You always find Uncle Sam NOT A NIGHT-MARE, BUT— HE MUST TAKE THE BRANCH CARE EVEN IF HE TAKES JOHNSON BROTHER. The 8th Regiment on parade in camp return Saturday afternoon to dear making away when he comes to other countries. The spirit of the "white man must rule" has sunken deep down into the hearts of the common citizen in the South to such an extent that some of them count it a privilege to insult a Negro anywhere and in any place. Whether they regard the Negro as a man or not, his manhood is there, deep down in his black veins, as much so as any white man, and when the two meet it will be manhood against manhood, and all the college-bred men in the United States cannot alter the determination to prove that a man's a man, in spite of his color and all that. We can take one lesson from the numerous strikes in this country, and that is—all the officials and leaders in the country cannot turn the tide of the combined individual when he determines to strike. It takes soldiers and guns to quell the men, and so wherever injustice is practiced continually the common people always have to bear the burden and they will stand it so long and no longer. Every one will agree that this question of the Negro and his right to vote in the South has reached a critical stage, and where he is in the majority he is trampled down simply to make way for white men to come in and say what must or must not be done when they have no business to Hon. Hoke Smith acknowledges that the white people have been unfair to the black man. Listen: "For years conditions have existed which in many places required resort to means that were unfair to prevent the Negroes from controlling your offices." How about the cities where the Negro is in the majority and a few white men follow them up to make their money? Who does the office belong to? Brothers, we must do something. The work of the Abolitionists must not be in vain. The blood of the soldiers that was spilt in the Civil War ought not to be spilt in vain. The Negro cannot protect himself unless he is given a fair chance. He must have the ballot. All other means will fall and he will be successfully hampered and blotted out unless he is fortified behind the right to cast a vote and add his share of influence to the elected candidate. MINE MAGNET HERE. Mr. Joseph J. Winbish, president of the Mountain Queen Mines and Amalgamated Co., of Boise City, Idaho, is in the city purchasing supplies for the above and other mines in which he is interested. Mr. Winbish is the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Eggleston, 3824 Vernon avenue. Mr. Winbish has not visited Chicago for twenty years and is astonished at the rapid growth made along every line. Among other things he has purchased a 100 horsepower mountain automobile, to be used in visiting his various properties, which are many miles apart. Many a man has by sparing the blue pencil spoiled the child of his imagination. CHAS. E.

New says, "I eat with Mason and I see him turn your people down every day, and I am going to not only turn you d—Niggers out here but will kick you out." Many Suits to Bc Brought Thursday Hon. B. F. Moseley has been quite busy dawing up papers for at least ten suits against the house, which will be tried in the September term of court. Several men on the streets were talking of taking violent steps towards the theater and restaurant but cooler heads have stayed the hands of the young men and they will fight the case legally. New a Deacon in M. E. Church. It is said Mr. New is a deacon in the largest M. E. church in Evanston and has the record of stooping to many low and flithy things to get money. It is said that he can make a better prayer than all the "Amen" corner of his church. At one time he was a Sunday school teacher and voted more money to foreign missions in Africa and Asia than all the rest of the teachers. His father and mother were old abolitionists and fought to free the slaves, it is said, but he has lost all the virtues of that hallowed home and, like the Southern lyncher, is crazed for the blood of the Negro. Only Fifty Black Skunks, Use Jim Grow Nest. Just fifty black skunks have up to 'date been 'seen to go into the Lutegirt vat and those were illiterate "Niggers" who were given tickets by the management. Rumor has it that tickets were given Mr. Mason by New but up to date we have been unable to learn definitely whether he used the tickets or gave them to his friends. Who Are Good People of Evanston? Mr. William Gardner, president of the Northwestern railroad, Mr. Patten, the grain king, and such other men as these are the good people of Evanston and these gentlemen have all denied the statement of New that they asked him to draw the color line. Are White People to Blame? No! Many of the best citizens are subscribing money to get New out of Evanston, something they have long wanted: One gentleman said, "My butter is a white man, and he was not refused. I am sure he is a servant. The backbone of our city will always stand by our colored citizens and if they show fight we will stand by them to the man." MISS EVELYN COMMINGS AND MISS R. RADCLIFFE EN- TERTAINED. Miss Evelyn Commings, Natchez, Miss, niece of Miss C. Williams, 3266 Vernon avenue, was given a royal reception last Friday evening before her departure for home, after a three weeks' stay in Chicago. Miss Commings is a graduate of the Natchez Normal College, and this, her first trip away from home, was made memorable by her aunt and cousin, Mr. Scott. The house was brilliantly lighted and beautifully decorated from top to bottom; both parlor们 were thrown open, and the many guests present enjoyed themselves at whistle and other harmless games. Although she did not have a license to do business, Mme. Roberts told some good fortune to many of the guests. Accompanying Miss Commings, and a lifelong friend of Miss Willisame, was Miss R. Radcliffe, of Natchez, who remains for at least four weeks longer. Miss Commings left on Saturday last and was caught in a wreck near Memphis, but was not hurt. The following were the guests: Miss Rogers, trained nurse, New York; Mrs. Levitt and daughter, Jackson, Miss; Mr. Edgar Simmons, Mrs. Dago and daughter, Mrs. M. Beekman, Mrs. H. P. Lee, Mrs. J.

Dyson, Mr. R. Givens, Mr. H. Lee and Mr. Hackney. THE MARQUETTE CLUB BIG ADV VERTISERS There is nothing like it in the city of Chicago. Messrs. Bowman & Shields, coming all the way from Seattle, Washington, have made themselves felt in such a way through their big ad. in this paper that one would think they were here for over twenty years. They are putting up the most high-priced attractions of any cafe in the city, and have ordered over 10,000 cigars from Hon. H. F. Catlin, 3559 Wentworth avenue. Mr. Thomas Clark, their manager, has proven to the public that he is onto his job by the way he handled the 800 patrons they served on last Sunday. The Monogram Orchestra, with their famous trap-drummer, Mr. George Reeves. The Erie Quartette, which appeared last Sunday, will appear again at an early date to 3010 State street. The place is the finest on State street. OBITUARY. Mr. Robert Floyd, who died at his residence, 11 East 41st street, Wednesday, August 23, was buried from Walters A. M. E. Zion Church.

Holmes, 9 East 34th street, who wishes to thank his many friends for their expressions of sympathy and beautiful floral offerings. Mr. E. B. Church, who died at his residence, 30 East 37th place, Thursday, August 24, was buried Sunday, August 27. Mr. Church had been ill during the entire summer. When at last the end came it left many sad hearts to mourn his loss. Rev. Cook, of Zion Chapel, and Rev. Conway, of Yonkers, N. Y., officiated. Interment was at Mt. Glenwood cemetery. "Abide With Me" was sung by a quartet. He is survived by a widow, son, brothers and sisters. He was originally of Boston, Maas. A NOTED VISITOR. Mr. Hinton D.

As one of the original members of the Fisk Jubilee Singers, he has traveled all over the world and sung before all of the crowned heads of the Old World. Mr. Alexander is the oldest colored man in the mail service in his city. He has not visited Chicago since 1874. Mrs. Alexander accompanies her husband on his sightseeing trip and is loud in her praise of our city. HER FIRST NATAL DAY. On Wednesday, August 30, Mr. and Mrs. B. T. Burrell gave a party in honor of their daughter Vera's first anniversary, at their residence, 3223 Wabash avenue, at which time games were played and stories told, much to the pleasure of the children. Refreshments were served upon a table decorated with little Dutch dolls. A feature of the affair was the birthday cake with one large candle. Many hearty congratulations were offered and presents were numerous. An Invitation. Blitter (at servant's agency)—"Have you got a cook who will go to the country?" Manager (calling out to girls in next room)—"Is there any one here who would like to spend a day in the country?"—Life. PRICE 5 CENTS THE ATLANTA CONSTITUTION UNCONSTITUTIONAL The (Hon.?) Hoke Smith Has Ministers Denounce Lynching While He Abates It on the Side. DR. JEKYL AND MR. HYDE TO PERFECTION. Mulatto Means Social Equality— Ministers Dine With Members Whose Families Are of Many Colors —Natural Sight. By Staff Correspondent The Hon. (?) Hosey Smith, governor of Georgia, is the best portrayer of that wonderful dual character known as Dr. Jeykill and Mr. Hyde, with a diabolic cunning that would put his Majesty Satanic to shame this heartless idol of the South, this Negro-hating skunk who holds the destiny of all the (poor) whites in the hollow of his hand, has assumed new tactics in his determination to rule all the elections in the state of Georgia and eventually to make himself arbiter of things political throughout the South. Knowing that he is about the last of that old tribe that ruined the South and made baboons of themselves by crushing down the (and God knows they were their opposuit) he now as a last resort turns out the ministry and makes a mockery out of that. The Hon. (?) Mr. Smith, is the know, is editor and publisher of the Atlanta Constitution. In its issue of Monday July 3, several columns are given to sermons preached the day before by eminent divines denouncing a recent lynching. The Rev. Dunbar Ogden, pastor of the Central Presbyterian church, and Rev. John E. White, pastor of Second Baptist church, and Rev. Leo G. Broughton denounced in all sorts of forcible language the curse of the age—but thought no more about it when services were over. The very men that they met in the board room, along the ales and on their way home they positively knew that some time or other actively engaged in the hellish crime they had just so severely denounced. No class of men know better who are responsible for the deplorable conditions that exist in the South today than the ministry. A spasmoid outbreak from the pulpit once a year while condoning the greatest, evil known to mankind the other 304 days of the year certainly smacks of the ridiculous and makes very common the religion they preach. In enjoying the hospitality of the various members of their congregation the various colored families with which they are often surrounded is not a hearsay but a grim reality. Talk is cheap. Give us action, more vigorous efforts to stamp out this terrible evil and we will be pleased to read after these learned gentleman of the cloth. The Hon. (?) Hoke is declining no one but himself. Some day even he will wake up. IMPORTANCE OF A TRANSFER. By S. Adams. Several disagreeable alterations and at times serious accidents have been occasioned by persons neglecting to get a transfer as an identifier. The reporter can recall several incidents where passengers had paid fares and were asked by conductor for second payment, and the refusal or same caused disgraceful scenes. Whereas, had said passenger asked for transfer would have been put aside by simply showing the transfer. Several of the north and south bound cars are "pay as you enter" lines, which we are glad to say makes the precaution unnecessary. However, there are sufficient lines that are not using this very excellent paying scheme, and it is imperative that we caution the people to ask for a transfer whether you intend using same or not. Always have some kind of receipt to show for your output of coin. Let a hint to the wise be sufficient. THE EIGHTH REGIMENT IN CAMP. Springfield, Ill., August 21.—The Eighth Infantry, I. N. G., in camp here as usual have drawn the largest crowds of any regiment. Sunday was the banner day. Immense throngs viewed the dress parade. Governor Deneen reviewed the troops today. He declared "that they were without a flaw" and "that he was proud of them." A feature of the day was a musical drill. THIS WOULD PLEASE BOOKER T. Mr. Andrew I. Offord, 7114 Champlain avenue, has been appointed foreman of the Kenwood Auto and Machine Shop, 2632 Wabash avenue.

It is said that Mr. Offord can put together one of the Baldwin locomotives and is often called to the Illinois Steel Works and to Gary, ind., to repair some intricate piece of machinery. Become familiar with the affairs of almost any family and you will find that they are having an "awful time" about something. ety Dene Pi, Oe: eg ae bese RSE ute oe : SME TN aS, See a ae PEE we RBA eae AERO ? ; Sere ¥ SBS aye Ftp als Garant fre Us fe SITE Sa DBR ‘Beas.

The French people delight to honor true greatness, and the people of Avignon are proud of their city’s association with the son of the philosophic historian of India, the author of “Utilitarlanism.” After Mrs. Mill's death Miss Helen Taylor, her stepdaughter, was Mill's constant companion at Avignon. Thera the philosopher wrote to his friends high encomiums of Miss Taylor—"T am in clover.” She Is described as the “architect and the master mason all in one” of the additions to the cot- tage, where she had designed the “her- barium” (for Mili was a keen botan- ist)’ and the “vibratory.” Another at- traction to Mill was the “semt-ctreum- gyratory,” as he termed the terraces going round two sides of the dwelling. It was In 185S that Mill and his wito went to Avignon to stay for a year, but Mrs. Mill's sudden death changed her husband's plans, and for about fourteen yeurs he passed his grief with his books, just leaving the grounds to visit his wife's grave, surrounded by “sombres cypres.” In this little earth: ly paradise he wrote that he found that enjoyment necessary to his ex- istence Which the house of commons did not offer.—London Globe, TO sSUDGE MEN CORRECTLY We Srciid Think of" Eich as He Is Rather Than ac the World Sees HIG It 18 worth our while to remember that the czar of all the Russias does not sit In royal state with a crown on bis head all the time.

One column in an uptodate newspaper is worth 2 bushel basket full of hand-bills. The people who read the newspapers are good substantial citizens and have money to buy what you offer to sell. ¥ou' might have just what they are looking for and even have it dis- played in your show windows, but only a small proportion of the people who read the paper pass your window. You know of Marshall Field's; every- body does; yet, as well known as they are, they must advertise constantly or you would never know of some marked down sale, etc. Your neigh- bor succeeds because he advertises.

He rolled on one of the south-bound tracks in great agony, both legs being crushed. Another freight train was thundering down on bim as he lay on the tracks and although he made frantic efforts to pull himself away from the steel ralls he could move hardly an Inch. Finding that bis bands were free he managed to reach into a pocket and taking ont a box of matches, feverish ly struck them agatnst the rails, sev eral at a time, and held them up Ip the alr to attract the attention of the engineer of the freight that was fast approaching.

Atlanta, Ga.—Believing that music has the power to work a reformation in the hearts of convicts, the United States department af justice is trying an experiment at the Atlanta federal prison. J. P. Matthiessen, of Atlanta, a director of several orchestras in the city and a composer, has recently been appointed by Attorney-General Wickersham to take charge of the musical feature of the prison work. For some time past there has been an orchestra at the prison, but there ‘was no trained man to lead {t. The men were so deply interested in the work of the orchestra, however, and At seenied to give them'so much pleas: ure, that Warden Moyer believed {t would eventually aid at least In bring. mg them to a better kind of life. With this end in view he asked for the appointment of an orchestra leader. ‘An exwmination was held under civit service rules and Matthiessen got the place. He bas found the in- terest intense. He intends to. or- ganize a band, fn the near future, as well as the orchestra. New musle is being obtained every day. Warden Moyer is well pleased with the prog Tess up to date.

When that 1s gone he refuses to stake any more, He had ‘reached his limit of losses and, turning to a lady negt to him, said: “There goes my last louis, 1 shall not play any more." At the same moment he took a lt Ue box out of his pocket aud slipped ‘a white lozenge Into his mouth. Four attendants instantly caught him from behind, lifted bim out of tits chatr and carried him to the police station, The ‘doctor {a attendance there poured 2 strong emetic down his throat, and the “poor man became.very ill, Indeed, Twas not until too late that be was allowed to explain the lozenge was “quinine.

HEART IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE Physicians Report That Other Organs Are Transposed In a Strange 7 Baltimore ‘Case. Baltimore, Md.—One of the most re- markable cases {i medical history in this state has been found in the case of Miss Mabel Smith, pretty and six. teen, of Easton, Md., who ts at the University hospital. Miss Smith entered the institution recently and an operation was deemed necessary at once. By means of the X-rays the physicians found that the girl’s heart and spleen were on the right side Instead of the left, and that the liver, instead of being on the left side, was on the right. It was sald by the physiclans that only a few cases like this have been reported in thts country. ‘The operation was ontirely success- ‘ul, and despite the irregular positions of ‘the three organs the girl will re- turn home within a few days.

Johnson were the chief comedy entertainers at the New Grand Theater, and they scored big on the opening night. Mr. Smith played in ragtime and Johnson danced in a very novel way. The new Chris Smith song, "Fishing," sung by Johnson, made a hit. Rosa Lee Tyler and Lauretta Knox made their first appearance together at this house. Their opening duet was Cole & Johnson's "Mexico." Tuen Miss Knox sang a semi-classical number which fully captivated. The prison scene from "Il Trovatore" was hampered by the orchestra. Miss Knox, in spite of past criticism, sang the music too slow. Dave Payton, who is a young but promising conductor, failed to control the orchestra, which dragged and syncopated where he should have commanded Miss Knox by force to sing up to a concerted tempo, and the result was a trying one for Madam Tyler; but the two singers got a rousing reception. Ora Criswell appeared for the first time at this house and at once took her place as an artistic entertainer and made a hit. She has found that the critics' advice to wear a handsome wardrobe has been effective. There were three white acts on the bill. Madam Bussle's dogs were the finest little actors I ever saw, and the prettiest little set of intelligent beasts imaginable. The Four Haydens as expert wire-walkers did marvelous feats. The Fuller-Rose company in a force entitled "Silk Dick," with one soubrette and two men in the cast, lent its share of jollity to the occasion. "Slick Dick" was a bald-headed culprit whose hair grew on the sides and who very much annoyed a handsome-looking young fellow whose name was George. Three Good Assorted Acts at the Monogram. Butler May (String Beans) and his wife have returned to us again to prove that the rumor of May's death was untrue, and he was very much alive on Monday evening, when his handsome bunch of racial oddities captivated as of yore. The Griffin Sisters reappeared, still popular, and with new songs and an entertaining dialogue. Emma Griffin introduced "Fishing," which made a distinct hit on its merits. Billy Sweet and wife were returned in a new act. His wife a Fat Gal Am the Best Gal, After All" was a literal scream, and if Mr. Sweet continues to be progressive and unaffected he will soon become a headliner and a favorite. Billy Cross, a blackface comedian, was on the bill, but Fanny Wise would have been a profitable holdover. Everything else was satisfactory. The Phoenix Theater Has Novel Pictures. People who want to see a nice, early set of good pictures go to the Phoenix, and it has proved to be a nice moral place to bring children. "It Happened in the West" was a nice picture story, and "The Atonement" was another novelty. Erskine Jackson has filled the bill nicely as a young orchestra leader. New illustrated songs, too, are in evidence nightly. The Hillmans, who were at the Grand last week, have two cute little boys who accompany their parents on the road as mascots. The way Hillman put his clean, legitimate comedy over at the Grand last week should assure him of big time booking and lots of pork chops to feed the kids. The fall of September is here, the season has opened and now let us consider that we have turreted over a new leaf. It would do well for actors to revert back and read the first twenty-tour lines in Dr. Major's speech last week in the Freeman supplement. Lash Gideon, the well-known manager, left last Sunday for Boston, Mass., on a special business trip. He will remain in the East. The Reese Brothers' "Africanda" company has just signed for twenty weeks over the Sun tine, which will consume the greater portion of their bookings, which will be all in vaudeville this season. Mr. Gerald Tyler, the well-known baritone singer, pianist and teacher, gave a farewell recital at Allen Channel, Kansas City, Mo., August 23. Two of his special singing numbers were, "Carry Me Back to the Pinewood," by Harry Burleigh, and "To Rosa," solo and chorus, by S. Cooperidge Taylor. Mr. Tyler was assisted by his pupils. He will take up his new position as supervisor of music in the schools of St. Louis, Mo., early-in September, and leaves Kansas City with great reluctance. When Manager Frank Crowd was in Chicago I took him on a visit to the Stock-Yards by his own request. He expressed great sat-faction in a visit through the Armour building the kill- --- ing of bullocks, the preparing of meat and the canning of smoked beef and tongue. From a heated room to the cold storage ice-house was a searching change of temperature which did not appeal to Mr. Crowd so well as his sleuth through the claustrophouse. Mott's Pekin Theater opened again last Saturday and Sunday evenings to well-filled houses. The bill was headed by Alonzo Moore, a magician, whose work gave great satisfaction, especially the production of chickens and birds from an empty bag and the appearance of a boy from an empty cabinet box. Other acts were Miller and Green, singing and talking comedians. Their act at one time had the audience considerably aroused, and was withal very satisfactory. The Wilson trio, very sweet singers, gave evidence of what they will be able to do in jung specialties a little later on. Ed Williams played the banjo and won favor. The Kellys did a good specialty and the large opening chorus of female minstrels was quite attractive. Gertie Brown was the middle lady and Dollie Stewart and Mrs. Lewis had the opposite ends, in pants, of course. Irvin Miller, managed the show for the actors. There is to be another show tonight, Sunday night and Labor Day. The program should not be announced from the stage. George Williams, formerly of the team of Smart & Williams, was recently apprehended by the authorities for examination as to his sanity. The hearing took place last Thursday morning and after the examination it was decided that he would be harmless and as there was no danger he was discharged and taken to the home of his sister. Mr. Williams is a comedian who lived in luxury during the life of Walter Smart, and the team was always booked up in the best vaudeville houses at the highest possible salary. When Williams first began to realize what a great financial change the death of his partner was to him he became a hard drinker. On his arrival in Chicago over a year ago his memory would seem to fail in his talking specialties, his dancing grew weaker and it was intimated that he had been slightly addicted to antiseptic drugs. But the worst of all was that several months ago he fell in love with Goldie Crosby, the pretty, talented wife of Sidney L. Perrin. There was no cause for this, as Mrs. Perrin had not even cultivated his affections, and there was nothing between them. In fact, the Perrins, like other professional people, used to help him along. But, alas, when his mind began to wander at times there was much comment regarding his condition mentally until the climax came. I saw Mr. Williams just before he was taken and all the talk of his roving mind was of Goldie. It is all simply a story of unfortunate circumstances, of dissipated life and where love had blossomed unconsciously into the face of mortgaged beauty, where mimetic sighs and genuine sympathy meet and silent grief effects the inevitable. Three Solemn Views of Love Rue-love upsets a brilliant mind, Telling the Age of Eels. The scales of the eel tell its age. On each may be observed at intervals several more or less clearly marked lines parallel to the margin. These mark lines of growth, one for each year of the life of the fish. Three years, however, must be allowed for the innermost ring, as the eel has no scales until the third year. The scales do not overlay to any extent, and are arranged in series of small groups at right angles to each other, as so as to resemble what is known as herring-bone brickwork. Conversely, however, are said to have no scales. Wsddings Approved An old-fashioned man who wished to hire a team for the afternoon saw a nice pair of bays which he thought he would like to drive. "Can't let you have them," said the liveryman. "They are wedding horses." "What's that?" asked the innocent pleasure seeker. "Horses that won't shy at old shoes and showers of rice. Some horses seem prejudiced against matrimony. Anyhow, they lose their temper if they happen to be hit by any of the good-luck emblems that are fired after a bridal couple, and run away if they get half a chance. Every livery, stable, however, keeps two or more horses who take a more cheerful view of the wedded state. Those bays are that kind. They are slated to head a wedding procession for tonight and are resting up for the job." Surprised at City's Size A Colorado ranchman was paying his first visit to New York, and a friend took him down to the Battery, and then proposed that they walk up Broadway. They kept walking along, shoved and josted, the ranchman all excited and pleased. After about a mile of it, he became tired and ceased talking, but kept plodding along. But after an hour's walking, he took his friend by the arm and stopped him. "I say, Bill," he said, looking up the street with a weary gaze, "Is it town all the way to the Rocky mountains?" Give the Best You Have. Always give of the best that is in you. Feel responsibility towards yourself and your work. Never be content with a compromise with work. Give an employer the best that you have in you to give.—Belvedere Brooks.

New York Girl First in America to Qualify as an Aviation Expert. Hempstead, L. I.—The first woman in the United States to receive a License to fly an airplane is Miss Harriet Quimby, a New York girl, who qualified here the other day. In her trial for the License, Miss Quimby came within seven feet nine inches of a designated spot. Her figures are close to a world's record, the official mark being five feet four inches by the late Rakph Johnstone at Quantum, Mass, September 8, though Miss Harriet Quimby Sopwith, the English aviator, is credited with having landed recently within a foot of the mark. Miss Quimby made two attempts to qualify, the first being unsuccessful. Miss Quimby is a pupil of the Molesant Aviation School and made her record in a monoplan. She is a native of California, but has made her home in New York for the past six years. She took up aviation last February and has made most of her flights between 4 and 5 o'clock in the morning, going to business in New York afterward. Asked if she was not afraid while flying hundreds of feet above the ground she replied: "Not in the least. I feel safer flying alone than when I go as a passenger. At the helm one has a sense of security that couldn't be had if another person is doing the driving. For several years I have driven an automobile, but I find more real pleasure in an aerospace." Miss Quimby says it is not her purpose to take up aviation as an occupation, but she will fly at all of the big meets. Miss Quimby wears the conventional aviator's garb of brown shirt and trousers, close-fitting skull cap and goggles during her flight. Her face was covered with grease and dirt, but her blue eyes flashed happily over her success in winning a license. She is the second woman in the world to win such an honor, the other being a French lady. GIANT ALOE A FOREST FREAK Tree With Wonderful Medical Virtues Also Has Deep Religious Significance to Mohammedans. Cape Town, S. A.—The aloe is a tree that from the remotest antiquity has furnished medicine for man. Wonderful virtues were ascribed to it. Herodotus says it once sold for its weight in gold. It is found in many A A Giant Aloe. parts of the world, but the giant aloe of Southwest Africa is a remarkable tree. A mountainous tract about 50 miles from Cape Town is completely covered with aloes, varying in height from a few inches to 30 feet. Its leaves provide material for bowstrings, hammocks, fishing lines, ropes, etc. The aloe also has a deep religious significance for the Mohammedans, and those who have made pilgrimage to Mecca hang it over their doors as a sign that they have made the great journey to the Moslem shrine. Abdul Hamid Wants Birds. Vienna.—From Constantinople comes a quaint story concerning the ex-Sultan, Abdul Hamid, who now seems quite recovered from his recent violent spell. As showing his restoration to a peaceful frame of mind, the ex-Sultan recently sent a letter to his brother, the present Sultan, Mehmed V., requesting him to send a quantity of birds. Abdul Hamid has always been a bird lover, his favorite beings pigeons. He used to spend hours among them. Mehmed kindly complied with his banished brother's request, dispatching a whole wagon load to Salonica. 1200 Lots To Be Sold By Dec. 21, 1911 More than 250 now sold.

The Walter Savage Landor exhibition at the London Library is of great interest, comprising portraits, manuscripts and first editions from the important Landor collection of S. Wheeler, says the London Times. The most interesting of the literary relics is a volume of manuscript poems and corrections by Landor which he himself described on a slip of paper (here preserved) as "sweepings from under the study table." The papers in this volume were taken from Landor's writing desk more than thirty years after his death. Some of the poems are unpublished, and in other cases there are to be found the original drafts of lines which appeared in print in an altered form. Other documents include a will written by himself in which he bequeathed pictures to Robert Browning and Mrs. Lynn Linton. Work with all your might; but trust not in the least in your work. Pray with all your might for the blessing of God; but work, at the same time, with all diligence, with all patience, with all perseverance. Pray, then, and work. Work and pray.

All but two of its 102 employees in the factory and in the branch offices wear one or two artificial legs. The institution manufactures artificial limbs, and the employee leave their work to show the newly fitted patients how well they can walk, run and jump with the artificial article. Makers doubt if there ever was such a thing as a "cork leg"—in which cork entered in any considerable extent into the making of the limb. Some of them claim that the name was derived from one Cork who made artificial legs early in the last century in New York. In the present day they are manufactured from English willow, covered with a thin parchment or enamel, or of wood and leather. Big Combination.

HOW HE DODGED THE ISSUE Minister, Preaching Funeral Sermon for Worthless Man, Talked of This Glorious Age. One of the hardest things a minister is called upon to do is to deliver an address at the funeral of a man for whom there is really nothing good to be said. Such moments of embarrassment do occasionally arise. How one parson tactfully coped with the situation is thus reported in Human Life: The very worst man in a mining camp notorious for its plucky died. The fellow had been terribly bad. If he lacked anything of total depravity, none could recall any evidence of it. He had been brutal and debauched and debased in every way known to mankind. When he died there was a quandary as to what to do at his funeral. He had been shot down in his boots, in defense of the very decency of the camp. A non-resident minister was sent for, and was told the awful truth about the deceased. "Didn't he have any good point?" asked the minister. "Wasn't he even kind to a child some time?" "Never." The minister was lost in thought a while; then he asked: "When is the funeral to be?" "Tomorrow at three. Will you preach?" "Oh, yes!" "What in the world will you talk about?" "I shall talk," said the minister "on the glorious age in which this man lived." For Moths in Carpets. Moths in carpets can be killed by the use of a damp cloth and a hot iron.

VERY RICH NEVER GENEROUS They May Give Away Their Money, but Never Themselves, Says G. K. Chesterton. There are two other old and rather important things to be said about them. The first is this: That with this aristocracy we do not have the chance of a lucky variety in types which belongs to larger and looser aristocracies. The moderately rich include all kinds of people—even good people. Even prizes are sometimes saints; and even soldiers are sometimes heroes. Some doctors have really grown wealthy by curing their patients and not by flattering them; some brewers have been known to sell beer. But among the very rich you will never find a really generous man, even by accident. They may give their money away, but they will never give themselves away; they are egistic, secretive, dry or old bones. To be smart enough to get all that money, you must be dull enough to want it. Lastly, the most serious point about them is this: That the new miser is flattered for his meanness and the old one never was. It was never called self-denial in the old miser that he lived on beans. It is called self-denial in the new millionaire if he lives on beans. A man like Dancer was never praised as a Christian saint for going in rags. A man like Rockefeller is praised as a sort of pagan stole for his early rising or his unassuming dress. His "simple" meals, his "simple" clothes, his "simple" funeral, are all extolled as if they were creditable to him. They are disgraceful to him, actively as disgraceful as the tatter and vermin of the old miser were disgraceful to him. To be in rags for charity would be the condition of a saint; to be in rags for money was that of a filthy old fool. Precisely in the same way, to be "simple" for charity is the state of a saint; to be "simple" for money is that of a filthy old tool. Of the two I have more respect for the old miser, gnawing bones in an artie—G. K. Chesterton in London Fally News. War. One inevitable characteristic of modern war is, that it is associated throughout, in all particulars, with a vast and most irregular formation of commercial enterprise. There is no incentive to Mammon-worship so remarkable as that which it affords. The political economy of war is now one of its most commanding aspects. . . . Even apart from the fact that war suspends, inso facto, every rule of public thrift, and tends to sap honesty itself in the use of the public treasury for which it makes such unbounded calls, it therefore is the greatest feeder of that lust of gold which we are told is the essence of commerce, though we had hoped it was only its occasional besetting sin. —W. E. Gladstone. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but that which thinks within me must think for ever; that which feels must feel; I am, and I can never cease to be—James Montgomery. The iridescence of the opal is due to the amount of water in its composition and contraction fissures in the stone, but similar characteristics are round in other stones where films cause diffraction. The opalescence of the moonstone is caused by the enormous number of planes of separation in the stone, light being totally reflected from these planes. NOW FRANK SELEE DISCOVERED A STAR Roy Corhan, Promising Young Infielder. Frank Seelee, who more than any other man was responsible for assembling the former world champion Cubs, the greatest exponent of inside baseball of the last decade, may have another wreath added to his imposing laurels, providing Roy Corhan, White Sox recruit, establishes his right to recognition as a regular member of Comiskey's club in 1911. Seelee discovered Corhan way out in New Mexico when the great baseball strategist, broken down in health, had gone thither in search of a healing balm in 1906. Corhan played for the Pueblo team three years. In 1907, the first year he was with Selee, he more than came up to expectations. He batted .255 and stole enough bases to give him a place among the Ty Cobbs of the western league. Corhan bettered his batting average in 1908, reaching .256, and hit .270 in 1908. REGRETS HE TRADED KNIGHT Connie Mack Says He Is Sorry he Traded Clever Infielder for the Veteran Jimmy Collins. When Connie Mack, manager of the world's champions, allows a ball player to go after he has done service with the White Elephants it is a rare occurrence for that player to show anything like big league form thereafter. Bris Lord drifted out and "came back" with Cleveland. Connie then realized that there was lots in Bris and lauded him in a trade with McGuire. Of them all, there is only one that Connie Mack ever expressed regret at losing. Jack Knight of the Highlanders is this player. Connie taught Jack all he knew, brought him along E and made a finished player of him, only to part with him in a desperate attempt to bring the 1907 pennant to this city. "The only young ball player I ever regretted parting with was Jack Knight," said Connie, when Jack was allowed to go to Boston for Jimmy Collins. Even after the local boy was shifted to the minor league by the Red Sox Connie insisted that Jack would be back in the big show and be a star. As Connie predicted, Jack became a star of the first magnitude with the New York Americans, and seems due to have the best year in his career. Cy Seymour Going Fast. Cy Seymour, the old Giant outfielder, is going like a house afire in the Baltimore center field, and it would not be surprising if Cy would get a call back to the big show again next year. 一. broken down in health, had gone thither in search of a healing balm in 1906.

AROUND THE BASES St. Louis misses Roger Bresnahan behind the plate and also in batting. The Des Moines club in the West- ern league is about to be sold again. Konotchy is giving all the pitchers that he faces a lot of trouble this season. The reason Walter Johnson is los- ing his speed, is that he has changed his style of delivery. Pitching seven good innings and then blowing up in the eighth is no way to win a ball game. Lou Richie's twirling this season has been par excellence. He is credit- ed with four three-hit games. Detroit has entered into negotiations for Pitcher Willis Morgan and Shortstop Bill Orr of the Salt Lake team. When a baseball team pays $22,000 for a pitcher it would be good business policy to hire a guardian to make him behave. The Cardinals will make $150,000 this season. From being the poorest drawing card in the National league the St. Louis club is now one of the best. Hughe Jennings has decided to depend on his veteran pitcher for the remainder of the season in hopes that they will be able to pull the team through yet. Freddie Parent is hitting the ball like a friend for the Baltimore Orioles. The fans are wondering in the Eastern league how he got away from the big league. Pitcher Gustafson of the ironwood (Mich.) team struck out thirty men, but was beaten in a 21-inning game a few days ago. Some of the scouts should look him over. Pitchers are coming in the glare of fame as pinch hitters. Caldwell, Lange, Mullin and Willett, American league pitchers, are considered good enough swatters to send up in a pinch. The New York Giants have practically closed for Pitcher Bert Maxwell of Birmingham, Ala., the prize to be $4,500. Maxwell was once in the American League. The no-hit game pitched by Joe Wood against the Browns at Boston was the second of his career. When with Kansas City in 1908 he turned the trick against Milwaukee. Boston's new outfielder, Jackson, secured from Memphis, got his strat in the Texas league. He is or is not a relative of Joe Jackson of Cleveland, just as you believe what the scribes say. Ray Powell, the White Sox recruit player, who will join the Chicago club in the spring, is rated one of the fastest players in the minor leagues. He has stolen about fifty bases already this season. Detroit Americans have secured options on Pitchers Mike O'Toole and McCorry of the Albany club of the New York State league. The former is a brother of Marty O'Toole, purchased from St. Paul by the Pittsburg club. St. Louis National League Team Playing Brilliantly. Stanley Robison's Fondest Dreams of Winning Club Finally Realized, but Too Late for Him to Enjoy Pleasure. There is a bit of tragedy in the wonderful showing the St. Louis Cardinals are making in the thrilling race in the National league. For the man who would have taken the keenest delight in their wonderful sprint and who would have found more enjoyment than any other man in the world in these days when the Cardinals are upon the lips of fans the country over, is dead and robbed of the ambition of his life, writes Bill Bailey in the Chicago American. Just another of those peculiar freaks of fate which abound in this game of baseball. For Stanley Robison, game all the way through, stuck when his friends advised him to drop the Cardinals. For years it was his ambition to land his club in the first division. He failed. Bresnahan came and Robison took renewed hope. Every spring he went into the game absolutely convinced that "this is my year." The close of the race found him disappointed. He was just as hopeful this year. Absolutely certain that this was the year for the Cardinals. It was and is. But Robison never saw his hopes realized. He didn't live to see his ambition fulfilled. Wanting a winner all his life, he died in the spring of the summer that put the name of his team upon the lips of the fans of both leagues and made them the wonder of baseball men. Mr. Robison was certain that this would be the big year for the Cardinals. He spent a great part of the winter in Chicago, where he was treated by physicians. He often visited the Cub headquarters and one day he was fanning. "You know baseball requires patience." he was saying. "I have been many years developing a winner in St. Louis. If I hadn't been a patient man I would have quit long ago. Because I certainly have had my disappointments. "John T. Brush once told me that it required seven or eight years to build up a ball club. If that is correct I am about due. It took me a long time to find the right manager. Bresnahan was the man I wanted and when I got him I really began to build up my team. "The end of the season will find the name of the Cardinals upon the lips of baseball people the country over. My team will be the surprise of the race. "And when my team finishes up there I will have been repaid for the years of disappointment and the lean years. If everything goes well this year the rest will make no difference." "Everything went well" for the Cardinals. Their name was upon the lips the fans. They ceased to be a disappointment. The lean years were no more. The tragedy lies in the fact that the man who suffered most keenly the disappointments and who bore the brunt of the lean years was not here to enjoy the sweets of victory, was not here to pluck the fruits. COBB PAYS FOR CRUSHED HAT Star Detroit CenterFielder Compel- Fan to Take $5 to Replace Headgear He Had Spliked. Ty Cobb, in a recent game with the Athletics at Philadelphia, displayed a little human touch that endeared him to the local fans. It was in the first game of the double-header that Cobb T leaped over the right field ropes and pulled down a long drive of Murphy's. After the catch it was thought that Cobb had spiked some person in the bleachers. Two innings later Tyrus went to the same spot in the bleachers and from the press box it looked as if he was having an argument. Instead, Tyrus was handing $5 to the man whose hat he had spiked when he jumped over the ropes. Ty had taken a good look at the hatteless fan and while the Athletics were having their turn at bat sneaked off to the club house and his locker and dug up a $5 bill. On his second visit to the bleachers he forced the five on the surprised fan. Looking for Heylik Pitcher Hovikl, the new Sox player, seems to be the man Manager Duffy has been looking for all season. A big fellow with plenty of speed and good control and a fair amount of good judgment can get a permanent berth on the pay roll at Comiskey park. Pat Moran as Scout After Pat Moran's catching days are over, his usefulness to the Phillies will not end. Manager Dooley says he intends to utilize Patrick as a scout.

The more we learn about the science of keeping healthy and happy the more hot water we use. The average family uses nowadays about 50 gallons a day. It takes all of 50 gallons to give every member of the family a refreshing bath and furnish plenty for the dish-washing, scrubbing and the laundry tubs. The heating of 50 gallons on a stove means a fire for an hour, a fuel expense of 12 cents and a blast furnace temperature throughout the house. The same volume of water can be heated with a little compact gas heater and delivered right to faucets in every room in a few minutes. The gas used will cost less than 7 cents and the house will be kept cool. We sell these little gas water heaters in several styles—one large enough for the average family for S15—small payments if you like. This one is so popular that we have put out over Five Thousand of them this year. Of course we deliver and connect them for domestic purposes free.

The mountain paths among the foothills of the Himalayas are so precipitous that the sheep, more sure footed than larger beasts, are preferred as burden carriers. The load for each sheep is from 16 pounds to 20 pounds. The sheep are driven from village to village with the wool still growing and in each town the farmer shears as much wool as he can sell there and loads the sheep with the grain he receives in exchange. After his flock has been sheared he turns it homeward, each sheep having on its back a small bag containing the purchased grain. ```markdown ``` CK TO YOU!

She left a lot of unfinished work, and it will take another left-handed girl to finish it.

Sir Russell Reynolds, the late eminent physician, once related how he met Thackeray at dinner shortly after the publication of "The Story of Elizabeth," by his daughter, Lady Ritchie. "I told Thackeray how much I admired this charming novel. 'I am very glad, he replied, 'but I can form no opinion of its merits, as I have not read it.' 'Not read it!' I exclaimed in great surprise. 'No,' was the answer. 'I dared not. I love her too much!' Ranges of Bow and Modern Gun. In the days of mailed knights and battleaxes there was safety at a distance of 400 yards. That was about as far as the best archers could shout an arrow. Neade, a famous archer under Charles I., states that the ordinary range of the bow was between 320 and 400 yards, though it is on record that one man was shot a distance of 463 yards with the wind. Compared with this is the latest naval gun with a range of fifteen miles. Volcano a Wealth Producer. A fairly enthusiastic volcano is one of the world's freaks as a wealth producer. Bongo, the volcano in question, is located in Japan, and produces refined sulphur, which by this natural method of production escapes the import duty charged by this country, amounting to $4 a ton. The owners of Bongo naturally have no desire to part with their fiery source of income. ... Modern Bill of Fare. Diplomatic Menus FIXED UP PAPA'S MATTRESS Little Elizabeth Did a Good Job, But He Didn't seem to Appreciate it. "Elizabeth," said Mr. Jones to his ten-year-old daughter, "the mattress on my bed needs punching up; it's like a bowl and I always roll down into the middle. If you'll fix it up nice I'll give you a quarter." The bait was alluring, and Elizabeth worked hard, ripping open the mattress and making its contents as fluffy as she could. But she found it a hard task. Then an idea came. She repaired to the back yard and picked up half a dozen tomato cans. These she placed upright on the spiral springs. Sure enough, when the mattress was placed on the springs it looked fine and it was with a pleased expression that Elizabeth reported her task done when her father returned in the evening. "Here's the quarter," said the father, and Elizabeth and her two smaller sisters straightway required to the nearest ice cream parlor to spend it. After the girls were fast asleep they heard a series of notices from their father's room. He had just retired and had discovered the tomato cans. The girls, listening, heard some language that was impatient, to say the least, and then heard a series of rattling sounds as the cans were thrown onto the floor. Then it became quieter. Next morning Elizabeth was not complimented on her work. Instead the father had a few words to say about foolish little girls. But the three sisters, having had their ice cream, didn't care as much, perhaps, as they should. Recently, when there was a more or less chaotic condition existing in the administration of the New York police department, two "old line" police captains were discussing the new order or things. Shaking his head disconcertally, one of them wailed: "What are we coming to? What are we coming to?" "It's not 'what are we coming to?' returned the other, "it's 'when are we coming to?'" When All Will Be Rich. Hop Sing is a Chinese laundryman with a cheerful, thourough somewhat unusual philosophy. After bewailing the hard times and lack of business, he added, smilingly: "Bimeby everybody be lich, velly lich, bimeby." "How's that?" "Alla poor people got no money; no can eat.

Hebe Springs, Ark.—From the middle of the Little Red river, near Shiloh, the two-and-a-half year old daughter of J. L. Bittle of this place, gaily waved her hands at the horrified parents on the bank and when they rescued her from the rushing torrent, she laughed in glee over her escapade. How the baby reached the shallow water in the middle of the stream will probably forever be a mystery. Mr. and Mrs. Bittle had gone from Heber Springs to spend the day with the parents of Bittle and when they reached the farm the child was asleep. A woman lifts her arms up in the air as she reaches out to help a boy who is falling into the water. The boy is reaching out to help the woman. The water is flowing around them. The sky is blue with clouds. Baby on Sand Bar. Bittle unhitched his team in the barn and placed the baby upon some hay to continue her nap. Returning in a few minutes the father and mother found the child had disappeared. No trace of the little girl could be found and the alarm was given. In a short time neighbors were scouring the woods but the parents were the successful ones, finding their little one in the middle of the river, quietly wading toward the opposite bank. They called to her and she turned to wave a greeting to the frightened parents. In a short time the child was rescued and placed in the arms of the mother, who fainted when she saw her baby in the river. To reach the river the child had passed through a field of corn and walked about a mile and a half. She had crawled through, or climbed over, two high barbed wire fences without a scratch to body or clothing. The water was at least six feet deep for about 20 feet next to the bank from which the little girl had entered. She was in water to her neck when discovered by her parents and in a few feet in front of her was more deep water. She either swam through the deep water or hung on to a log which floated her to the middle of the stream. It was evident though she had been in water over her head for her hair was wet. BIG BABOON STARTS PANIC Escapees From His Cage at a North Dakota Interstate Fair and Causes Stampede. Fargo, N. D.—"Chacama," a big baboon being exhibited at the interstate fair here, broke loose from his cage and caused a panic among the hundreds of people on the grounds. It was only after an exciting chase of over two miles by armed trainers in an automobile that the animal was finally captured by means of a canvas sack. The baboon first made for the booth of the First Presbyterian church of A CHimpanzee is being beaten by a crowd. Baboon Runs Amuck. Moorehead. Here he seized one of the small girls and threw her to the ground, but did not injure her. He then overturned the tables in the place and proceeded to the roof. Here he tore off shingles, drove away four carpenters, tore off boards from the roof and then made across the country. Automobiles followed, and he was finally captured in a greenhouse near this city. What Fly Did to Little Girl New Orleans.—Your old friend, the common house fly that "falls to wipe its feet," doesn't care where he deposits his disease spreading germs. The Louisiana state board of health has a test tube containing 127 maggots. This is what the health board says about it: "A little girl, the patient of a New Orleans physician, one day felt a tickling sensation in her nose. She used her handkerchief, and after blowing her nose discovered a fly in her handkerchief. Seven days later the physician removed from the child's nose 127 maggots that had developed from the agg deposited by the fly."

Bradby of Detroit will be the speaker of the day. A moonlight excursion on the steamer State of New York will be given by the Warren A. M. E. Sunday school Monday evening. Sept. 4. About two hundred and fifty persons went with the members of Warren A. M. E. church on their excursion to Put-in-Bay last Monday. If it had not been raining a much larger crowd would have gone. Rev. George Brundy, former pastor of St. Matthew's Episcopal church of Detroit but now engaged in settlement work in that city, delivered a very able lecture at Warren A. M. E. church Friday evening. His subject was "Social Evils." Spiritual Insulation Many a man, who is now thrilled with the currents of the life of this modern age freely passing through him, is in danger of moral disaster, through defective spiritual insulation. Are the wires of your ambition well wrapped around with the insulating material of prayer and faith and love? —Zion's Herald. A. Bishop's Suspenders Suspenders are modern, decidedly so. There are men still living in South Carolina who remember when an effort was made to discipline the great Bishop William Capers of the Methodist church for wearing them. It 'was contended that in doing so he set a bad example by a display of worldiness. Attractive Vase An effective centerpiece for the breakfast table is a flower vase of wood brown bamboo. They come in a variety of shapes. Inside are sheet iron or metal receptacles to hold the water. Most any flower shows to advantage against the dull brown of the bamboo. Many of these vases are loosely woven and dull red or green pottery peers through the interstices. They may be found in any oriental store. Radium Seems Indestructible Radium of the highest activity never loses any of its properties. A regular output of radium means a regular increase in the quantity of radium in existence in the world. In consequence of this property, a hiring system has been developed, a procedure which will naturally hamper the development of a market. A New White Race. The Japanese is slightly yellow because he has descended from ancestors that were colored by millenniums of tropical sunshine, but in the course of time the Japanese will be as white as any European. Even now there are vast numbers of Japanese who cannot be distinguished in complexion from the so-called white races.—Japan Times. Barne and Barnacles. "Pretty handsome barn, don't you think?" sal the member of the city group who had been on the farm before. "Which is that?" asked the one who was on her first visit. "The large red building is the barn!" "Oh, yes! And the little buildings around it are the barnacles, are they?" Sound Philosophy. A corresponden' of the Portland, Mass., Times asserts: "Men are like bugles—the more mass they contain, the further you can be, them. Women are like tullips the more modest and retiring they appear, the better you love them." There is some truth, we think, in that. Recipe of an Epicure "Without meat there is no pleasure,' is a very old saying. Malmionides talked of dishes good for the health. He recommended bread baked from fine wheat that is not too new, not too old, nor ground too fine. THE STREETS OF BROADWAY THE BINGA BLOCK, 4712-4752 State street (inclusive).

We suppose Miss Meyers ate twelve whole fried chickens, while Mesdames Mady and Strang only ate half that amount. Oh! you chicken eaters. Those Dover people won't have any chickens left for Christmas if Mrs. Meyers, Mrs. Mady and Mrs. Strang don't stop murdering them. Oh, well, and old fried chicken tastes pretty good once in a while.

WALTERS A. M. E. ZION CHURCH The Christian Endeavor society of our church made a splendid impression at the Negro Fellowship league on last Sunday afternoon. The rally clubs are all getting busy.

The chairman of the program committee announced that Dr. Anna Cooper will read a paper on next Tuesday; subject, "What Is Truth?" HE WAS WILLING TO WATCH Burglar Wanted His Pal to Tackle the House With the "Loaded" Key. The man with his coat collar turned up, and his derby pitched down over his eyes, who was slouching along in the shadow of the building, suddenly beckoned to the man on the other side of the street. "Here's an easy one, Pete," he growled, hoarsely. "Where's an easy one?" snarled Pete. "This here house. It's like taking gum from a stenographer that's fixin' her hair. Some chump has gone away an' left his latch key in this door." Pete took a swift look at the house and began to back up. "You can go to it," he said. "I don't want in on it." "Are youse putty?" "Naw, I ain't nutty. But de feller wot lives dere is a low down sneak widout no feelin' nor nobody, an' I don't want nothin' ter do with 'im. No, I don't know him, but I'm next ter his game. He sticks that key in dere to ketch suckers like you. Dere's a wire on dat key, an' a million-volt battery attached to dat wire. I wouldn't touch it if yer'd glimme de First National bank. But go ahead—I'll be acrost de street watchin' wot happens." Nothing happened. Must Have Imagination Life in the country may be one of the richest on earth, but it may also be one of the poorest. If the great book of nature be open, the eye of him who resides there, and illuminated with the light of heaven, from his little knoll he can see and enjoy all the glory of the world; but if he sees in nature only the potato field which gives him food, then is this golden vein closed for hi. and he himself stands like the potato plant, fast rooted in the earth.

By Willie Lemons The weather played havoc with the plans of the management of St. Thomas' excursion on last Monday night on the Theodore Roosevelt. The boat was to have been at the foot of Randolph street viaduct at 8:45 p. m., on her return trip after unloading another excursion party at Indiana Harbor. This arrangement would have saved at least three-quarters of an hour from the run through the locks to Clark street bridge. The seas were so heavy as to cause a postpement of the other excursion, and the boat could not be gotten closer to the viaduct than away down to the Duluth boat landing. This was an emergency not bargained for, either by the management or the transportation company. The ladies were attired in their best costumes and were very much annoyed to have their shoes solled in tramping down to the boat landing. All preliminary inconveniences were soon forgotten, however, when the boat began to rock. On the whole, it was a very remarkable night. For once, the reporter had to accept a real lemon, and was very thankful to get it. The little inconveniences that some people suffered will not deter them from being among the first on Clark street bridge when another boat excursion is given early next summer by St. Thomas' guild. The 800 excursionists all conceded that even though some were seasick the affair was a grand success. Best Way to Get Even. If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty give him water to drink; for thou wilt heap coals of fire upon his head, and Jehovah will reward thee.— Proverbs of Solomon, 25:21. LIEF solicit your on Illinois Mechanical Lightning Calculator. The clerical staffs of many of the big insurance companies have of late years been considerably reduced by the employment of mechanical calculators. One of these, the invention of a German, is a compact little affair resembling a music box. It may be made to perform almost instantaneously the most portentous sums in addition, subtraction, multiplication by one or two factors, division, squaring and cubing. It is required, for instance, to multiply 531,975 by 924. The first factor is set by touching little knobs representing 531,975. To multiply by the other factor you turn a handle four times, push a long slide one place and turn the handle twice, then push the slide another place onward and turn the handle nine times. The long multiplication is now done without the possibility of error so far as the machine is concerned and the dial shows 491,144,900. In the same mechanical way may be done all the other arithmetical processes. This world would be a dreary monotone without the mountains and the lakes, the rivers and the valleys, which have come through nature's great uphpeavals. The sufferings of earth make it the more glorious. Men is much like this in his own experience. The blessings of like have come in large measure because of the heartaches and the agonies of men and women. They have given of their life blood so that others might be enriched. This has been their crucifixion. But out of their affliction has come a new life—grown from the seed of the best that died in the old self. This has been their resurrection.—Charles Stelzle. Mrs. Martin's new parlormaid, Susan, appears to be not only extremely well trained and all that a correct parlormaid should be but also a young woman of unusual penetration. When Mrs. Martin's acquaintance, Mrs. Davis, comes to call on afternoons, Susan ascends the stairs to her mistress' room and declares to that rather astonished lady that "Mrs. Davis, one of the gentry, is in the drawing room." On the other hand when Mr. Smith, the book agent, or Mr. Jones, the piano tuner, rings the front door bell and sends up a card, Susan is not to be deceived, and announces, "Mr. Jones or Mr. Smith, not one of the gentry!" Mrs. Martin is at a loss to account for these distinctions. Candid. If Nothing Else Nooning else. The Lawyer—Arnaud acquainted with all of the men on the jury? The Witness—Yes, sir; more than half of them. The Lawyer—Are you willing to swear that you know more than half of them? The Witness—Say, if it comes to that, I'm willing to swear that I know more than all of them put together. Suffering. A Discerning Person. Forces Are Fighting Jim Crowism. Rev. H. S. Graves of Ebenezer A. M. E. church and Rev. E. H. Fletcher of Mt. Zion Baptist church charged against Jim Crowism from their pulpits on last Sunday evening. The Graves-Fletcher forces attacked Jim Crowism in the same spirit that the "Fighting Tenth" attacked the Spanish forces on San Juan hill. So great was the volley of words, phrases and clauses that Jim Crowism beat a precipitous retreat and when last seen it was hovering around Mason's restaurant and the Evanston theater with Col. John Auter and Maj. John Guy in close pursuit. Col. Ed. Morris and Commander B. F. Moseley are expected on the scene at any moment with fresh troopers and a bloody battle is expected in the near future on civil right battlefield. Ebenezer A. M. E. Church, Rev. H. S. Graves, D. D., Pastor. Ebenezer tried to outdo itself Sunday all day. Never before were there three crowds so large as Sunday, never so many communed in one day, and never so large an offering without a rally. Chairs were brought up from the lecture room after the gallery was filled and placed in the vacant spaces under the gallery. Two hundred and thirty-four persons took communion and $135.87 was the collection for the day. This, too, without any tables and parading thereto. In such a quiet way, by laying their offering in the boxes as the ushers pass them, Ebenezer has raised $1,346.90. In its system of financing its church and its order of service, both of which were instituted by the present pastor, the Rev. H. S. Graves, Evanston can well boast of the most model Negro church in Methodism, so say many eminent clergy who have worshiped in this church during the year. Mrs. Anna Brown, the great evangelist of Washington, D.C., will presach at Ebenen Sunday, both morning and evening. She will conduct a mass meeting at 4 o'clock. This meeting will be under the auspices of the Missionary society. Mrs. Brown has been holding meetings in Bethel and Institutional churches for the past month and hundreds have been converted. She is the most powerful preacher-evangelist in the country. The Missionary society was entertained at the home of Mrs. Francis Lash Friday night. A large crowd was on hand. The ladies arranged plans for the great mass meeting at 4 o'clock Sunday. Mrs. F. E. White, 621 Grove street, and Mrs. Martha Ketchum, 1501 Dewey avenue, left Monday morning for Iowa. Mrs. White will visit Davenport, Muscatine and Burlington. Mrs. Ketchum will visit relatives and friends in Davenport and will attend the annual conference which convenes in Des Moines, Ia. Mrs. J. H. Owens, Jr., 1906 Asbury avenue, is quite ill and was taken to St. Francis hospital Tuesday. Her many friends hope for a speedy recovery. A Birthday Party. Mrs. Carrie Franklin, 1824 Railroad avenue, entertained eighteen little tots on last Thursday afternoon in honor of her daughter Lurelee's sixth birthday. The merry laughter of the children told of the gay fun that they were having. Delicious refreshments were served by Mrs. Franklin and Miss Franklin. Boy Cadets. The Boy Cadets of Evanston are pushing fast to the front. Never before has a more appreciative body of boys come together that they might derive the most out of physical culture. They have planned to do a great work here in Evanston. But as these plans are private property we will not make them public just now. Mr. James Collins, 1110 Clark street, presented the boys with six fifes, for which they are very grateful. The cadets will give an exhibition drill at Evanston Auditorium Thursday, Sept. 21. Mrs. Mae Jones, 607 Chicago avenue, is visiting with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lowry in Pontiac, Ill.

Mr. and Mrs. Smith will visit relatives in Canada before returning to Evanston. Mr. H. Bird of Dixie Jubilee Concert company is expected home this week. Mr. Baker Depugh, 1721 Benson avenue, was called to Pontiac, ill., last week to attend the funeral of his brother-in-law, Mr. Curtis Sommerville. Mr. Sommerville and family were at one time residents of Evanston, living at 914 Emerson street. Beneft for Mrs. John Watt. Mt. Moriah lodge will give an entertainment at Evanston Auditorium Monday, Sept. 4, for the benefit of Mrs. John Watt and family. Mrs. Watt does not ask for charity but the members of Mt. Moriah lodge have taken it upon themselves to give this entertainment for Mrs. Watt as they feel that she is deserving. Mrs. Watt is a widow and has three young children to care for. Many of the white citizens have shown Mrs. Watt every consideration and feel that we should at least show Mrs. Watt that we have compassion for her. The Garfield Wilson orchestra of Chicago has kindly consented to furnish music for this entertainment. Mrs. Frank Howard and baby of Louisville, Ky., are visiting with Mrs. T. H. Cotton. Mrs. Howard and Mrs. Cotton are sisters. Miss Violet Parker of Chicago spent Thursday with her friend, Mrs. Robert Petitt, Judson avenue.

His daughter, Miss Viola Williams, was at his bedside. We extend to Mr. Williams and Miss Williams our heartfelt sympathy. Miss Bertha Smith, of Greenfield, O, daughter of Mrs. Mary Whitmore, is visiting her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Breckenridge, 1109 Clark street. Mt. Zlon Baptist Church, Rev. E. H. Fletcher, Pastor. The weather last Sunday was ideal, so the Mt. Zlon Baptist church was blessed with splendid congregations, both morning and evening. Rev. A. W. William was with us at the morning service and made a splendid talk after the pastor had preached. The Missionary society had quite an interesting meeting at 7 o'clock. At 8 p. m. Bro. J. E.

All who contemplate attending services at the Second Baptist church Sunday evening are requested to read and prayerfully consider the fifteenth Psalm. Test for Stutterers A new method of voice control was tried by the lifelong stutterer. In a few lessons the impediment in speech was overcome. "That's fine," said a candid friend. "Now I wish you would take a bit of advice. You talk all right today, but just keep a watch on yourself and see how you talk this time next week." "You're a wet blanket, all right," growled the ex-stutterer. "What's the matter with next week?" "We'll be in the full moon then," said his friend. "It's a fact that everybody who has ever stuttered, stutters worse when the moon is full than at any other time. Until you get so you can talk smoothly then, you can't count yourself really cured." The man with halting speech took notice as advised and found that several full moons waned before he could control his speech at that time. No Need for Fear On one occasion when General Jackson was sailing down Chesapeake bay in an old steamboat the waves were running high, and an elderly gentleman present expressed some concern.

When Burglars Met Patricia Weldon held the receiver to her ear and listened to her chum's voice. "Pat, dear, do you mind running over to our house to put a few shovels of coal in our furnace? Tom wants me to stay in town for dinner. We will be out on the nine-fourteen. It's an awful thing to ask you to do, dear, but we don't want the fire to go out on such a cold night. You don't mind? You are a darling, Pat, and don't forget that when you go in by the cellar door to close it gently—sometimes the lock slips nid, locks itself. Be careful. Good-by, dear." Patricia hung up the receiver. She decided to go over to the house herself and attend to the fire. The Stone home was just across a small lot. She slipped her long fur coat over her tea gown and after locking her own door she went over to the house of her friend. She found no difficulty in opening the cellar door and removed her heavy coat and left it on the smooth, white stairs before venturing to the blackness of the cellar. Patricia went bravely on toward the furnace and began to shovel the coal. In the big living room above a mansprung quickly to his feet. "By Joy! There's somebody prowling about in the cellar!" He tipped over to a huge bag lying on the couch and took out a large, ugly-looking shotgun. "I'll just surprise him at his own game—even if the gun isn't loaded." The man crept cautiously down the cellar stairs, the noise of shaking down the fire drowning his footfalls. Patricia Weldon took one last look into the fire and, turning suddenly, found herself looking into the muzzle of a shotgun. She promptly did the first thing that entered her head. She fell in a faint to the floor. The man's gun fell almost before the girl dropped. He rushed to her side and with something very much like a sword on his lips picked up the huddled mass of unconscious beauty and with shaking heart but steady arms carried it up the stairs. When he stopped, half-way up, to kick the fur coat out of his way, Patricia found her senses. She felt herself being rather reluctantly put down on the couch in the living room. The man sat down beside her then and with a man's awkwardness began to fan her with a magazine. "Wake up, girl! For goodness' sake wake up!" Patricia felt instinctively that his next move would be for water, and as she had no desire to be soaked she opened her eyes slowly and effectively. "Who are you and how do you happen to be in Mrs. Stone's house?" she asked. "Who are you and how do you come to be in my sister's house?" The man laughed. Patricia jumped up. "Alice Stone's brother! She has never even mentioned that she has a brother!" "Nor has she mentioned to me that she has a new chum!" If the light of understanding dawned in both minds at the same time neither spoke of it. "I have just come in from a hunting trip and before that I had about circled the globe." "I suppose the gun you were about to shoot me——" "Was not loaded. I can't tell you how sorry I am to have frightened you so. I couldn't see any one until you fell—the turn was sudden." "It was stupid of me to faint. I had come over to fix the fire for Alice." "If you feel equal to it now, I will get your coat and take you home." The man leaned forward in his chair. Patricia looked up. "Are you married?" she asked suddenly. "No. Are you?" "No." Then they both laughed. "Because," Patricia continued, "I prefer, in this instance, to be sensible rather than strictly proper. There is no one home at my house and there is no one here to get your dinner. Now, I am not much of a cook but I intend to get your dinner for you." The girl looked him squarely in the eyes. "There is not a bit of sense in your sitting alone here and me alone there, especially when——" "When what? " A light had come into Dick's eyes. "When I—when you are my best friend's brother." She turned quickly toward the kitchen. "Alice said there was a nice little steak and some lettuce——" "Alice!" Pat turned swiftly toward him, her cheeks scarlet. "What does Alice know about this affair?" She looked suspiciously at Dick Farel. "Did she know you were here?" "Sure; I saw her in town and she told me how to get in and to make myself perfectly at home." Patricia was looking at him acusingly. "I wouldn't have frightened you out of your wits with a gun if I had known—about you," he put in, defending himself." Then Pat smiled. "Alice is not very particular about whom she sends to you for a cook." "Sis knows I am not looking for—a cook." Dick looked into the girl's eyes. The Hardest Thing "What's the hardest thing about roller skating when you're learning?" asked a hesitating young man of the instructor at a rink. "The door," answered the attendant. Some new tenants occupied the hat below the Kings. The occupants of the Le Rox apartments were noted for their sociability. But to all events and purposes the Swifts were exclusive and did not seek other company than their own. "I don't understand 'it at all," confided Mrs. Jenlings as she seated herself on Mrs. King's back porch. "The poor thing is so abused. How her husband talks to her. He doesn't talk, he yells, shouts, screams and shrieks at her. "Don't she answer him?" questioned sympathetic Mrs. King. "The angrier he gets, the more she laughs and even when I've seen her go out he continues to scold and gibber jabber to himself. One I heard that man fairly exult because she was suffering with a sore throat." "Probably for the first time in the twenty years of your existence you'll know enough to keep quiet," he said. "Something mysterious about them. Never a soul calls on them." "Oh the butcher's boy informed me they just moved from another town. I called there one afternoon and though no one answered the door bell I could distinctively hear peals of laughter. Listen to that now." "Can't you ever stop, you mummy skull," came the words from a distance in an exasperated tone. "T'll throw something at you if you utter another syllable." "Heavens, if worst comes to worst and any attempt is made to harm that exquisite child-like wife, I'll hasten to her rescue." Things seemed to go from bad to worse in apartment No. 2. Strange, however, when the young couple left the flat together, they could easily have been mistaken for a congenial, happy, care free pair. The neighbors felt diffident about calling on Mrs. Swift until Mrs. Jennings appointed herself as committee of one to make a formal visit. As she approached the door a masculine voice could be heard saying: "I'll not put up with this any longer. You think that you can swear at mo until eternity, but you're mistaken. Some day I'll wring your neck." Mrs. Jennings flew back to her flat and telephoned the police that a man was threatening his wife and her life was endangered, then waited in breathless horror. Mr. Swift was amazed to see a big burly policeman when he opened the door, razor in hand. "No, we don't keep a dog," he said impatiently. "But you keep a wife, where is she?" said the policeman, looking at the razor meaningly. "My wife is downtown shopping." "A likely story. Didn't you threaten to wring her neck a few moments ago?" "Maybe you, found cutting it easier." "To wring my wife's neck?" repeated Mr. Swift in astonishment. Just then a voice came from the dining room saying, "Go to h—. Go to h—. "Come with me and I'll introduce you to the party whose neck I'll wring the first opportunity, regardless of all the gossip neighbors and policeman in the world," said Mr. Swift. When the policeman saw an ugly green parrot winking at him he uttered a few choice oaths apologized for his intrusion. The neighbors must have been informed who the anticipated victim was, as the next day Mrs. Swift was surprised at her sudden popularity and of all the articles most admired in her home the parrot was most admired. "Losing the Drop." "When a man whips out a gun and gets 'the drop' on you, there's nothing else to do but throw up your hands and let him have whatever he wants." "That's where you fool yourself," said the man from the southwest. "If a man has the nerve he can face a gun and get away with it—sometimes. I remember seeing in a border saloon an Englishman pull a gun on a Mexican whom he had caught cheating in a game of cards. "You give me back the money you've won from me or I'll blow your head off." "You will?" said the Mexican, looking calmly into the muzzle of the Englishman's revolver. "Well, you won't do it just now; that gun's not loaded." "What's that?" exclaimed the Englishman, turning the revolver toward himself to look into the chambers. And on the instant the Mexican drew a knife and planted it to the hilt in the Englishman's stomach." Qualified for Free Trip "I want a pass," said a forlorn-looking individual as he entered the office of J. J. Geary, general passenger agent of the Northwestern Pacific. "Pass?" queried Geary. "You're not entitled to a pass. You are not an employee. Sorry." "No," answered the individual, "but here the anti-pass law says free transportation can be granted to 'necessary caretakers of live stock, poultry and fruit.' Well, I'm going on this trip with an aunt that's a hen, there's your poultry; a girl that's a peach, there's your fruit, and a nephew that's a mule, there's your live stock. I think I am entitled to a pass."—San Francisco Call. BEVERAGE FOR SUMMER TIME How to Make Tea Punch, a Refresh ing Drink If It Is Mixed With Proper Care. Tea punch is a much used beverage for summer porch, tennis and golf teas, and properly made is most refreshing. For a quantity of punch make a quart of rich, heavy sugar syrup, and while hot pour over one cupful of orange juice, one cupful of pineapple juice and half a cupful of strawberry or currant or raspberry or cherry juice or a mixture of these it preferred. Let stand until cool, then add one cupful of chopped teo to thoroughly chill. Meanwhile make one pint of strong tea, using a mixture of English breakfast and Orange Pekoe tea if possible. The strength should be given by the proportion of tea used and not by the length of time the water stands on the leaves. Take a full teaspoonful of tea for each cupful of water and let this water be freshly boiled and just come to a boll. The utmost care must be used in making this tea, for the success of the punch depends upon the flavor of the tea which should be there supporting the fruit flavors, yet without astringency or perhaps actual detection as tea. TO SERVE POTATOES. Sunday.—Mashed potatoes, peel thin, steam, place in pan and mash, adding milk, butter and salt; beat light. Monday—Baked potatoes in jackets. Tuesday—Peel and bake with roast of beef. Wednesday—Slice thin, place in cold water half hour; remove into a dish, with salt, pepper and milk, half pint to an ordinary vegetable dish; put in oven and bake for one hour; remove from oven and scatter butter over top. Thursday—Peel, steam and serve whole. Friday—Cut in thin slices lengthwise, sprinkle with pepper and salt and fry in butter or beef drippings. Saturday—Potatoes boiled in jackets. Potato Gravy—Put a tablespoon or more of butter into frying pan and let brown; mix a tablespoon flour into cup of cream; pour into butter; let boil, season with salt and pepper and turn over potatoes. A Bread Help. During cold weather many women who do their own baking and it difficult to get their bread to raise without the sponge getting chilled. With this recipe I make the sponge at ten o'clock and the bread is done in time for supper. Take six medium sized potatoes, slice thin, and boil in two quarts water; mash in water and add one half-cupful of sugar, one half-cupful of lard, three cents' worth of compressed yeast or one half-cupful of dry yeast in water; flour enough to make a stiff batter. Set on back of stove and stir from bottom every hour. In two hours will be ready to knead down. When ready to make into loaves knead well for 20 minutes. Gypsy Cake: Make or buy a good sponge cake; cut it open and spread between jam or any sweet preserves you may have on hand. Now get a few small macaroons. Cut the cake and put into the dish you are going to serve it in. Place the macaroons around and between the cake and steep the whole thing in port or sherry for two hours. Now make a boiled custard or sweet cornstarch pudding, not too stiff and flavored with vanilla, will do. Pour this over the cake and then on top of that pour whipped cream and stick on top either blanched almonds or candied cherries. This is rich and delicious and will serve, in custard cups or small dishes, twelve people. Strawberry Cocktail. Cut choice strawberries, thoroughly chilled, in halves or quarters, mix with a combination of fruit juices, lemon, orange, pineapple, etc., and one heaping tablespoonful of sugar. Pour over the strawberries in cocktail glasses. Wine is sometimes used with fruit juice. Serve very cold as a first course at luncheon (often they are surrounded with crushed ice). Another Method—Slice large, ripe strawberries into cocktail glasses, allowing four to six to each person. Remember, this is an appetizer, not dessert. Put one heaping tablespoonful of sugar in the center and squeeze into each glass the strained juice of half a lemon. Brownstone Front Cake. Two squares of chocolate grated, one-half cup of milk, yolk of one egg. Slir and cook until the consistency of custard, stirring constantly. Add one teaspoonful of butter. When cool add one cup of sugar, one-half cup of milk, with one teaspoon of soda, dissolved in it, one and one-half cups of sifted pastry flour, one teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of salt. Frost with the egg white and enough powdered sugar to spread. Flavor. [Portrait of a man in formal attire with a mustache and a bow tie. The background is a plain, light color.
