This, by the way, is a most difficult class of business to handle, since it requires the utmost skill to prepare glass and other fragile articles for shipment long distances, with no danger of breakage, and we have been particularly fortunate in this regard and the percentage of loss from breakage of goods packed at our place has been so small as to indicate that the work must have been done in the most careful and conscientious manner.

CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1911. IS THE CUVILLIER BILL FOR A COLORED REGIMENT UTTERLY DEFEATED? New Yorkers Must Wake Up and Be On the Job, For If They Don't They Will Be Without an Eighth Regiment. By Little Corporal. New York, Oct. 13.—It is with much regret we note the loss of the bill for a regiment in New York. Said bill was slated to be taken up at the resumed session, but has apparently been lost finally, that is as far as the present session of the State Legislature is concerned. It is not only an honor but our legal right as citizens of these United States to have as representatives as uniformed boys in blue. The great city of New York is alive with inspiration and ambition. Youths are kept on good behavior. Boy scouts are remaining true. Papers of both races are writing of the great things Democracy is doing for the race. But through all let us govern ourselves so our vote will not be purchased lightly nor for a mess of potage. In the time of peace we must plead for recognition, and it is not only an honor that is due us as citizens of these United States to have representative boys in blue, but when the rattle of musketry and the roar of the cannon is heard then no more pleading is necessary. Every avenue of enlistment of our boys. The dignity of the other race would be more impressive and their every act show more forethought if in the time of peace they prepared for war. A CALL TO HOWARD ALUMNI. The College on the Hill Asks Its Old "Grads" and Students Not to Forget Dear Old Alma Mater. The Defender is in receipt of a letter from Mr. James C. Waters, Jr., secretary of the General Alumni Association of Howard University requesting the sending of as many names of graduates from the above named college, also the dates of graduation, as can be furnished. For, strangely enough, no record is in existence of the many sons and daughters who have been sent forth from the scholastic embrace of old Howard. It is and should be with most profound shame that we make known the above. Let each one assist in the great and honorable work of compiling a record of Howard's graduates and send same to Mr. Jas. C.

To Manage the Biggest Social Event of the Season—Widely Known Editor Both North and South Will Lead Society to His Musical Fountain, Where They May Drink to Their Hearts' Content. But a few days ago I passed down Chicago's most beautiful boulevard, Michigan avenue. That stretch of promenade which extends from 12th to Monroe streets is as beautiful a public highway as the ones internationally famous and that it has been my good fortune to walk upon, calling to memory the Bols, in Paris; the Linden, in Berlin, or the Thames Embankment, of London. Far superior is this particular stretch of street in Chicago to the Riverside Drive in New York, the street to which it has to be compared in the great American metropolis, because here in Chicago some of the city's best spots are located. My attention was particularly called by friends to Orchestra hall, which was erected that it might house that famous musical organization, the Theodore Thomas Orchestra. This tribute to the artistic life of the city is indeed a splendid achievement, especially so as its use is available to all artists whoever they may be. One is greatly impressed with the inscription over its entrance, "All Passes, Art Alone Endures." In looking over the daily papers I find that there are scheduled for appearances in concert, symphony and orchestra recitals, over a thousand entertainments to be given during the winter. This is indeed a fine example of the musical interest Chicago has in the high class forms of musical effort when we take into consideration a ten weeks' session of grand opera and the many lighter entertainments provided during the winter. I was gratified to learn that there was to be given in Orchestra Hall on Oct. 19 a song recital by Madam E. Azalia Hackley. I have had the pleasure of hearing this lady in a splendid musical program at the Academy of Music, Philadelphia, some years ago. The Academy of Music is Philadelphia's most exclusive temple of art and her offerings were given every consideration and reviewed at length by the daily press of that city. The entertainment, while giving me much pleasure and impressing upon my memory the singer, I did not hear her again until some few years after when I happened to be in London and saw her advertised to sing at the Great Queens Hall. Personally, I am not technically a musician, but in a modest way I am an admirer of and highly appreciate good music. The contact thus gained has allowed me to be slightly discriminate along these lines, and I knew that if this lady could interest artistic Lonon to the extent that she be invited to sing in a hall in which Jennie Lynn, Adelaide Patti and the great sopranos won their fame, I knew she must be an artist of more than ordinary capabilities. I shall avail myself of the opportunity of hearing her in Orchestra Hall on Oct. 10 because I know I shall be delighted with her well chosen program and instructed by her discriminating and correct vocalization. I am sure Chicago's colored public will give their support to this exceptional artist. Her wide acquaintance among musical white people engaged in this sort of work insures her a large percentage of their patronage. Perhaps no other woman has done more for disseminating knowledge and inspiring a love for music along its highest and cultured lines as has Madam Hackley. The lady has the endorsement of the foremost race leaders and has gratuitously held classes for the serious study of music among her people and has devoted her life to the work. No finer tribute and compliment could be paid her at this retiring recital than she be greeted with a capacity audience. I do not plead from a financial standpoint but from the fact that it is the way to show that there are Negroes who have aspirations in sufficient numbers to successfully patronize an entertainment of such a high order. Not being a resident of Chicago, I thought it expedient to write to Mr. Cary B. Lewis, manager of the recital, for seat reservation. I was gratified to learn from him that there was quite a healthy demand for the seats. He requested that I should give him some of my impressions concerning Madam Hackley and express myself as to what I thought about the recital. I have used this means to do, and should he see fit to make these remarks public, I will be glad if my attempt will influence a few patrons to subscribe to a woman's effort that has devoted her life to an artistic career for herself, and helped others to appreciate the beauties of good music. I am sure that Madam Hackley will feel proud on the evening of Oct. 19 to be greeted by a large audience and that her heart will vibrate and that she will more readily touch the sensitivity of her audience if welcomed by a full house, as I believe all eyes will be upon us at our first artistic effort in the great Orchestra Hall. (Note.—This is from a lady, a splendid musician, who is making a special trip to Chicago to attend the recital.) Everybody With a Halo. A London doctor declares that every human being has a halo. POLICE! FIRE! MURDER! PORK CHOPS! PIGS! FEET! Will the Police Clear Out the Dens That Decent People Can at Least Sleep Nights, Especially Over East If Not, The Defender Will Ask the Mayor to Take a Hand, It would be one of the greatest blessings if the peace and quiet loving citizens on Rhodes avenue would draw up a petition for the suppression of noisy families in certain blocks on this aristocratic street. There are, sad to relate, persons in possession of pianos on this street who have no regard for the instrument nor for the families living within sound of their continual noise. Not only on this particular street but on many others is the nuisance carried on. But because of the fact that a reporter having on several occasions passed the homes of these late revelers, speak of them incidentally. There are persons living in neighborhoods thickly populated with those of other races and they play their pianos until early morning without a thought to whether they are a nuisance or no. Because they have rented a certain flat or house does not give them the privilege to disturb the community. It is not only a display of the densest ignorance and careless morals but it is also downright caddishness. Our race should by this time as individuals know that we are not, as the 'poet said,' "Each man judged by his own actions," but every one knows we are judged as a race by each individual's actions, and I with other members of the race hope that in the near future the rowdy, careless, noisy element will be separated from the better class by every principle of distinction. MR. DAVID WHITE DID COME BACK. He 'Was Delighted to See the Old 'Road Which Was Full of Mud and Thank-You-Ma'ams (State Street) a Beautiful Thoroughfare. The old hoosier wagon which brought to the then small village of Chicago the family of Larkins Artis and Libby Archable in 1843 was not needed for the return trip of the daughter of said parents, who is now Mrs. David White of Windsor, Ont. Automobiles, street cars, airships and railroad trains make transportation a luxury to what it was when this woman (who, by the way, is distinguished as the first colored woman to enter Chicago) arrived here in 1843. Mrs. White and her husband have been for the past three weeks visiting their daughter, Mrs. R. H. Cammack, 6024 Aberdeen street. Mrs. White was born in Terre Haute, Ind., Feb. 14, 1838, and is well known throughout several states. A PRE-NUPTIAL ANNOUNCEMENT. Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Jackson, 3435 Wabash avenue, gave at their residence Saturday evening, Oct. 7, a most brilliant affair as a pre-nuptial for their daughter, Miss Little Jackson. The house was beautifully decorated, the color scheme being pink and white. The guests were among the most prominent society leaders of the city and were as follows: Mrs. Bernice Wilson, Mrs. Marie Burton-Hyram, Miss Evelyn Fitzsimons, Mrs. Rose Knox, Mrs. Mamie Thornton, Mrs. Ella Leveritt, Mrs. Lillian Dunlap, Mrs. Mayme Alexander, Mrs. Mary Horsely, Mrs. Orville Wilson, who will be "matron of honor" at the coming wedding; Miss Blanche Turner, "maid of honor"; Mrs. John Dunlap, "best man"; Mr. Andrew Childress, "groomsman"; Mr. Wm. Horton, "master of ceremonies"; Mr. Percy Turner, "groom." During the evening excellent music was rendered by Mrs. Marie Burton-Hyram, one of Chicago's favorite sopranos, and Mrs. Orville Wilson gave delightful instrumental numbers. The evening was enjoyed from 8 to 11 p.m., as was also a most delicious luncheon, the menu of which was as follows: MYSTICS ENTERTAIN MYSTERIOUSLY. On last Wednesday evening at the pretty residence of Mrs. J. M. Hill, 6043 Loomis boulevard, the Mystics entertained in honor of Misses Elizabeth Bailey of Lexington, Ky., and Elizabeth Durham of Marion, Ind. The club as usual was favored with success. A unique luncheon was served. Mrs. Hill and her waitress deserve great credit for the excellent service to the club and their fair guests. The Mystics are an exclusive club of six young men, "so different from all the rest," who are well known in Chicago. The party was a little private affair for the members only and their lady friends. The members are: J. Love Jones, Maurice Caldwell, Lewis S. Hill, Andrew Stith, E. Glover Mathews and Grayson Brown. Ladies present: Misses Elizabeth Bailey, Elizabeth Durham, Vera Wesley, Elrane Caldwell, Jennie Watts, Juanita O'Keefe.

ALEXANDER, REPORTER CHICAGO DEFENDER. 36 Mr. Illa Vincent, Champion of the World, Who Threw Mr. Frank Ehrler Twice in 54:9½ on Thursday at the Athletic Field Day. I desire to announce to my many friends that I have established an office at 1010 Straus Bldg., Clark and Madison streets, and am engaged in a general real estate business. The people of this city know me through many years of business transactions with them, and our relations have always been mutually agreeable and pleasant. Any time you or your friends are in the real estate market to buy or sell, I am sure I can save you money by transacting your business through my office. I have for sale a number of houses and flats. My prices and terms are right. I assure you I shall give you my personal and best attention, and will be more than pleased to have you call and see me. In fact, call and see me in regard to ANY business matter in which I may assist you. The affair was staged as the star event of "Athletic Field Day" for the benefit of the Dearborn Center Day Nursery. Vincient and Ehrler on the mat form a great contrast. The black panther is not near so large, but for grit and speed is his master. This was clearly Mr. Illa Vincent, Champion of the World, Twice in 54:9½ on Thursday a demonstrated in the first round, when Vincent, supporting Ehrler on his chest, his legs and neck rigid, would not permit his back to touch the mat. Then with the speed of a panther sud- denly he hurls Ehrler from him and by a series of holds and scientific passes quickly performed lands him up his back for the first down.

Be this as it may, he gripped his orld, Who Threw Mr. Frank Ehrler day at the Athletic Field Day. antagonist in the last round with a determination that knew no defeat, and in exactly twenty-four and a half minutes had pinned his back to the mat for the final and victorious fall.

INCEMENT any friends that I have established Mark and Madison streets, and am business. me through many years of business relations have always been mutually Then One Who is Acquainted with the Science of Government is a Politician. By Delmas. I believe, Mr. Editor, it was one of the apostles who said, "Men are ever learning, but not yet able to come to the acknowledgment of the truth." A truer quotation was never uttered by man. It is just as true in our day as in the Christian era. And it seems to me the more a man knows, and learns, the less respect he has for the truth. In other words, the less ability he will show in acknowledgment of its principles. So in a great measure politically here lies the fault of men. And when the people beat them with many strips they turn on their representatives. They hate the men who seemingly get on well and are doing well by the people and plot against them because their success depends upon the elements being disturbed. If they praised the good of men in office they may accomplish the unshackling of hands, tied by poverty, long suffering and misery. The loosening of such hands by them, they feel, may present the opportunity to the people of a noble defense, making slim their chances for control. Now those fellows who stand outside the pale of good government with their political hammers out should stop knocking the fellows who are always honest and right and quit attempting to hinder the cause of righteousness. Don't you think that men who hold office serving the people should receive while they live some praise and the people of the great state of Illinois should help at all times the executive or the governor bearing the responsibility for the people and not permit him to bear them alone? This would help men on the road to their earnest endeavor, fire them with a double zeal of ambition. In the last issue I spoke about the iron will and the greatness of the statesman, the Hon. Charles S. Deneen, who arose from a bed of affliction at Springfield and met the people face to face mindful ever of the fact that duty called him. Permit me to say of his legal ability that he is a lawyer of high regard, a zealous interpreter of the constitution of the nation and an earnest defender of the world's peace. He is generous, with a kindly feeling to those who seemed imposed upon. He was a prosecutor of the highest type and declined at all times to be a persecutor of any man. His position was one of justice and fair play. It was for this reason the people of Illinois made his governor. How well he has kept the faith all know. He was considerate of the weak position of his enemies and did not attempt to crush him but he pleaded with them to reform and return to their first principles. But they would not have it so. He declared that he would in the name of the people lead on the march to progress against every effort of the opposing foe. The constitution of the state was adopted in convention at Springfield May 13, A. D. 1870. Ratified by the July 2, 1870. In force August 8, 1870, and amended 1878-1880-86. Since that time the enemy has been trying to abrogate its principals, annul its laws and substitute a law of selfishness. Yet Deneen can say with the patriots, "Boys, the old flag has never touched the ground." Therefore we, the people of the state of Illinois, grateful to Almighty God for the civil, political and religious liberty which he hath so long permitted us to enjoy, and looking to him for a blessing upon our endeavors to serve and transmit the same unimpaired to succeeding generations, in order to promote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and posterity. Believing Deneen has adhered to the principles of the constitution more closely than any of his predecessors, we, after close investigation, find no fault with him as governor. What we ask for him we ask for any good man, and that is: Hear and listen to him, for his cause is just, his position is secure, and his word is his bond. BLACK AND WHITE LABORERS Getting Together in the South. Waycross, Ga., Oct. 13.—Seemingly "wonders will never cease" and now comes the "wonder of wonders." The strike of firemen and engineers throughout Georgia and Florida involves the male members of both races and the surprising part of the strike is the laying of violent hands of the colored employees on the persons of whites has been unnoticed when as a rule it is as much as one's life is worth to violently lay hands on a member of the other race in Georgia. This is but one of the signs of the change of things as well as times and only the more clearly teaches us that the present existing circumstances are slowly but surely giving place to peace, justice and equal rights.

Mr. Leibrandt, of W. H. Bowers & Co., 4 and 6 East 31st Street. I heard recently of a mother who smacked her small boy because he squinted. She remarked that if that would not cure the child she did not know what would. She evidently had no idea that squinting is a nervous affection (unless it comes from a deformity of the eye, which generally can be cured by operation), and that sometimes it is a symptom of serious brain disorder. Most of the "ugly tricks" that children develop in childhood are simply the result of "nerves" and to attempt to cure them by nagging, scolding or smacking is about the worst possible way to set about it. It is very important that they should be remedied, however, because sometimes these tricks have lasting impressions that endure even into adult life, and spoil the appearance or the manners—or perhaps both—and also may considerably injure the health.—Exchange. West Steadily Advancing Beersheba is still an outpost of civilization against Bedouin tribes. Its commercial importance is increasing rapidly, owing to waterworks which draw their supply from seven wells mentioned in Genesis. That the historic East is gradually succumbing, however, to the progressive spirit of the West is indicated by the fact that a pumping plant has been erected over Abraham's well. When the railway system now under way has been completed, it will be possible to run trains from Paris to Damascus, Jerusalem, and Mecca itself. Peculiar Appeal There is a peculiar loveliness in the cheerfulness of sick people. It is unexpected—like the bit of green in the desert, it gains by contrast. It is the flower of the spirit produced in a wilderness.—J. Edward Harlow. Triumph of the Young. Modern life is arranged entirely to suit the tastes and needs of the younger generation.—The Graphic. Are Fishes Mirrors? A scientist says he always fancied little fish were protected against the mouths of the big fish chiefly by their markings looking like the stones and reeds in the water, but he now concludes that all shining, silvery fish are mirrors, reflecting the dark bottom of the pond, and it is only when such fish come to the surface that the light shines on them, and they become visible to the big fish that they prey on little fish. So long as the little, silvery fish stay close to the bottom they look like mud and stones, only showing their shining silver when they come near the top and so are soon swallowed down. Childish Beliefs. Yes, children believe plenty of queer things. I suppose all of you have had the pocketbook fever when you were little. What do I mean? Why, ripping up old pocketbooks in the firm belief that bank bills to an immense amount were hidden in them. So, too, you must all remember some splendid unfilled promise of somebody or other, which fed you with hopes perhaps for years, and which left a blank in your life which nothing has ever filled up.—Holmes. Ingenious Little Invention. Some college girls invented an ingenious apparatus for bolling a kettle, when they wanted tea instead of a chafing dish concoction. It is made of heavy wire, bent at the ends to rest on the chafing dish frame. A hardware dealer will make it for a few cents. The kettle is set down on the framework, which comes within two inches of the frame. No Wedding Presents. Those who are opposed to the giving of wedding presents will hall with approval the step taken by a very wealthy Chicago society girl. When her wedding invitations were issued they contained this sentence: "It is a special request that no gifts shall be sent." Probably there are others who will follow her example. Signed Shifting Ministers One of Wesley's reasons for shifting his preachers every three years was avowed that they might be able to preach the same sermon over again to different congregations. He knew by experience the difficulty of sermon making. After a few weeks, he said, a preacher cannot find matter for preaching every morning and evening, "nor will the people come to hear him, whereas if he never stays more than a portnight in one place he will find plenty of matter, and the people will hear him gladly. I know that were I to preach one whole year in one place I should preach both myself and my congregation to sleep. Too Bad That She's Gone Somebody who has taken the trouble to investigate has found that Elizabeth Barrett Browning tried to make "eagle" rhyme with "vigil," "helress" with "terrace," "nature" with "satire," and "woman with "gloaming." It is a "pity that Mrs. Browning is dead. She might, if she could return, make a wonderful success as a writer of lyrics for musical comedies. Undoubtedly she possessed the chief qualification.

A steam-heated flat isn't so bad after all. How many "old residenters" have you met who remember the big fire? For fear you haven't heard about the Lorimer misunderstanding, it is to be aired in Chicago. Young men—yes, not even saloon keepers—are looking in wine rooms for wives. Girls, be careful! The new fall garments are to be much shorter than usual, but don't worry—the price will be long enough. We must be the people. In this country we are the all-absorbing topic and in Africa the powers are fighting each other to absorb all we possess. Speaking of politics, Illinois is one of the politicalist States in the Union, and it behooves us to see that we get a slice of anything that is gettable. An Evanston boy shot his playmate because he wouldn't divide a stick of candy with him. Some grown-up people have done the same thing for just as slight a provocation. President Taft has done more talking in the past month than he has during his administration. They say talk is cheap, but a good many of his utterances will prove expensive to him in the next campaign. Christopher Columbus attended a lynching in Atlanta, Ga., accompanied by Hoke Smith. He expressed himself that he was glad that he discovered it. He will send missionaries from Africa here to do mission work. The protection of a colored girl by a white man is of such strangeness it can well be said to surprise us. Our next issue will carry in its columns a full account of same and, if the parties concerned will permit, names will be given. Hallowe'en is next on the calendar.

On what shall the warrior feed that he may gain that iron in the blood and steel in the muscles that carries on armies to victory? We had pinned our faith to hardtack and black coffee. But now hardtack has been put under the ban, and the recent Illinois military maneuvers marked the ascendency of the prune. Did not the much reviled hardtack save the nation in '61-65? Could an army fed on prunes have done it? And what, indeed, will be the army without that staff of life that has survived even the pricking of army poets' pen points? As well Hamlet without the melancholy Dane—or the ghost, or the skull of poor Yorick. Though it was reviled, still was it loved by those who by dint of long necessity or perseverance acquired the habit; for surely hardtack is as much an acquired taste as the olive, cigarette or high-ball. We must admit that we are apprehensive about the prune; and still cling stolically to the opinion that more hardtack and less bully beef would have enabled us to come out of the war with Spain with a record of fewer soldiers killed by rations served than by Spanish bullets. There seems, as we survey the ground, to be no hard and fast dietary for conquering legions. The Spartans, according to Lycurgus, trained on game and wine; but was it not game and wine, and a few other things, that undid Hannibal's conquering legions in that fateful winter in Capua? There can be no doubt that the grand Old Guard fattened and kept up its fighting heat on vin ordinate, and rather frugal fare. Still the Russians who met the rice-fed Japanese had almost the same fare—when they could get it. Evidently national temperament and early training must be considered. Washington's army fought rather badly and won very slowly on very little food. And then came in the long reign of the hardback. The Japanese are the greatest fighting people of the east. Their armies fight on rice, raw fish and vegetables; and this, well warmed up with curries, is the diet of the other great fighting people of the east—the great Sikh brotherhood, the military Spartans of the modern world. Slowly, but surely, it seems that the fighting world is falling into two parts—the meat and the rice armies, and the wine that the Spartans and the French drank, is being eliminated. But the substitution of the untried prune for hardtack seems to be a rash step that shatters all calculations on the strength of our striking arm. To Marry and Keep His Work. Making good his promise to break bachelorhood before reaching the age of 40, and marry a girl his age, Constable William G. Yearsley of Magistrate Hagerty's office will in a few days wed Miss Lillian M. Kendell of Clifton Heights, Pn. The bride-to-be is 18 years old. Yearsley is 38. They were introduced by Mrs. William Davis, a sister of the constable, who played the role of matchmaker. She always counseled her brother to get married and have a home of his own. "I'll get married before I'm 40," declared Yearsley a year ago, at which time he had not met his flancee. "And I'll surprise you by getting a wife half as old as I am." Eight months ago the couple were introduced. It was mutual love at first sight. Yearsley won her consent to marriage several weeks ago. They will be married at the sister's home, where they met, 155 North Fifty-seventh street. Miss Kendell is a graduate of the Newark, N. J., high school, and an accomplished musician. — Philadelphia Times. Census Inaccuracies What relation does a woman's age, as it is disclosed by the census paper, bear to the number of years she has actually spent in this vale of tears? It varies, probably, according to the fancy of the fair recorder. In the recent Australian census the commonwealth statistician became so distracted by the extent of the variation that, acting in a manner which can only be described as brutal, he caused intimations to be inserted in the press reminding the public that birth registers exist, and could be referred to, even suggesting that he has actually had them referred to in a large number of cases, with illuminating results. The consequence of this was a mild form of panic, there being a 50 pound ($250) fine "or inaccuracy, and there has been quite a shoal of communications from feminine correspondents, artlessly wondering whether they made a slip of the pen, and begging, if so, to correct. First Woman for High Honor Mile. Lucienne Heuvelmans, the first woman in the history of the Academy of the Beaux Arts, Paris, to win the Grand Prix de Rome for sculpture, was born in Paris on Christmas day, 1880. Her sculpture is "Electra Guarding the Sleeping Orestes." Two years ago she won the second grand prix. Her father is engaged in artistic cabinet work. She took up sculpture seriously when she was 18. For some years she has been teaching drawing and modelling at the communal schools. By reason of her award she will be the first woman at the Villa Medicis since the French school in Rome was established, over 300 years ago. Powerful Stuff. "Have you any hair tonic?" asked the stranger in the barber's chair. "Yes, sir," was the reply of the modest tonsorial artist, "but I hope, sir, you will not ask me to apply it on your head.

"Anybody who has occasion to use a water bucket," said a man acquainted with their various uses, "is likely to pick up the first one he comes to, then he may put it back where he found it or he may not. "It was to prevent their being carried off in this way and left around where they didn't belong that fire buckets came to be made with round bottoms, so that they wouldn't stand on their own bottom. Such buckets, as you know, are kept filled with water and standing around in buildings, supported in holders having rounded out spaces in which the buckets rest. These buckets are likely to be left where they belong. "A man who doesn't know their peculiarity may come along some day and pick up one of them and carry it off, but he is likely to leave the fire buckets alone after one experience of seeing the bucket he has carried off roll over when he set it down and spill out all the water. "Perhaps you don't know what stable boys do to keep their buckets where they can find them. The stable boy protects his particular bucket by boring a hole in its bottom, so that it won't hold water; nobody wants a bucket that won't hold water. Then he carries in his pocket a cork that will fit the hole in the bucket, and when he has use for it he simply plugs the hole, and there's the-bucket ready for use. "To be sure other boys around a stable may carry corks in their pockets, but the run of people don't; and so the boy who has bored the bottom of his bucket is at least a little more likely to find it when he wants it than he would be if it had no hole in it." HUMOR IN HIS EXAGGERATION Jabish Furlong's Recital Illustrates the Characteristic That Makes Malne Stories So Amusing. Novel and exaggerated smiles and comparisons characterize Maine speech. Instead of such commonplaces as "As light as a feather" and "As dark as a pocket," the comparisons are likely to be "Forty pounds lighter than a straw hat" and "As dark as the inside of a cow." And it is this same humorous exaggeration that makes many a Maine story so likeable. Jabsh Furlong, who worked for old man McKusick in having time, had it. "I had the greatest luck out gunning the other day," said Jabish. "I was walking a log across a deep hole in the brook, when I see a squirrel up a spruce on the furder bank. I up right there and fired, and I fetched down the squirrel and a partridge besides that was settin' in the spruce buddah. But the old gun kicked me into the brook. Well, I foundered around, catchin' holt of everything within reach, and when I found myself up on the bank, I had a mink in one hand, a mushquash in 'other and the seaw' mer pants was full o' trout." Shine With Every Drink. There have been in the history of barber shops such plans as "A shave and a shine all for a dime," "A haircut and a shine free," but it was left for a negro barber shop at 18 Ivy street to give a free shoe shine when a drink was paid for. That is, it was a Sunday blind tiger in which Will Strong, a bootblack, sold Iliqr and then gave his customer a free shine. The police had suspected the barber shop for some time and on last Sunday they made a raid and found a large lot of whisky in pint bottles. Will Strong was in charge and was running a bootblack stand. He claimed that another negro had brought the whisky in to the shop without his knowing it. The Recorder sent Will Strong to the chain gang for thirty days.—Atlanta Constitution. A G. Washington Hat.

This ves what a boudlou lo, an expression of its Obliging One's Friends Yarrington promised his friends to buy the box they wanted for one day at the automobile races. The best thing Yarrington does is to oblige his friends, and all the others had said they had no time to attend to the matter. The broker he went to said that while boxes were very scarce, he thought by paying a premium he might be able to wrench one by main force from the eager throngs that were battling for them, provided Yarrington would take it for the two days. When he escaped from the broker Yarrington had parted with $40, but he figured on quickly disposing of the box for Friday, and the $20 that would be left was not much split up among the crowd. He had his first jolt the next morning when Plentz telephoned that imperative business called him to San Francisco, so his name must be scratched off the list. At noon Kernack called up to say there was a sudden rush of business at the office and it was absolutely impossible for him to get away Saturday, so Yarrington must count him out. At three Woodmere called up to say that since some of the party could not go he thought they might as well call off the party. --- After Yarrington had confided some bitter things to himself over the treachery of humanity in general he hunted up the broker and asked him to take back the tickets. He had no compunction about this, as there was such a demand for them. The broker smoothly said he had such a quantity of boxes on hand that he really could not think of paying the full price for Yarrington's, but that he would at great personal sacrifice give Yarrington $10 for it. Thereupon Yarrington said a few sharp things and departed, resolved to sell the tickets himself since selling was so much more profitable than buying. He called up Wattles and asked if he didn't want a box for one day at the automobile races. Wattles jumped at the chance, so Yarrington sent over the tickets and a bill for $20. Wattles nearly tore the telephone out by the roots and the boy with the tickets came back looking very much as though he had been shot out of a gun. It seemed that Wattles thought Yarrington was giving him the box, and so the bill offended him hugely. After that Yarrington heard of a man who wanted to go to the races, and promised to send over the tickets. Before he did so Kernack phoned that on no account was Yarrington to dispose of the box, as he had some friends to whom he had promised it. After Yarrington had told the other man that he could not have the tickets Kernack called up to say that his friends were leaving town and he didn't want the box after all. By this June Yarrington was in an exceedingly tense and nervous state and hated the world vehemently. He was a cynic on the subject of friendship and desperate as regards his $40. It was manifestly impossible for him to stand on the street corner and wave the tickets in the faces of the passers-by, but he hit on another plan. Taking the office boy into a corner he thrust the hated tickets into his hands. "You go out there to the track," he ordered, "and sell these tickets for what you can get. Don't you dare come back with them, because if I ever set eyes on them again I can't answer for the result." A little later Woodmere telephoned that he wanted the seats for his cousin's family, and when he learned that they were unavailable he said that Yarrington might think that was the right way to treat a friend of long standing, but as for himself he had his own opinion of such conduct. He said that Yarrington might have known he would want the tickets if Yarrington had given the matter the slightest thought. When the office boy came back that night he looked haggard. He said that by telling the people he was the only support of three widowed mothers and eight brothers and sisters he had sold the Friday tickets among the throng at the track for a paltry dollar aplece. He said he had intended to invest in one himself, but that in a lucky moment he had hunted out the box and sat in it. He regretted to say that it was the very worst one there for position and that after he had found he would have an unrestricted view of one post, a corner of fence and a blank wall he decided he would not buy a ticket. "What did you do with the Saturday tickets?" Yarrington asked in a hollow voice. The office boy burst into tears. "I — I lost 'em!" he sobbed. "Well, that's lucky, anyway," said Yarrington. Near Slighted. "Good morning, Mrs. Simpkins," said a suburban lady who is very shortsighted. "Your husband must be very fond of gardening. I see him the first thing every morning down at the bottom of the garden. And how well he looks to be sure." Mrs. Simpkins slammed the door in her neighbor's face. The latter went to tell her daughter. "And you said, mother, that the—the thing in the onion bed was her husband?" "I did." "Ah, well, that explains the matter.

My prices, I suppose, have something to do with my large plano moving business, for I make a price that is sufficient to make all necessary profit and yet not high enough to be a burden on the customer. I believe that my rates are reasonable, and this is proved by the fact that I do work for the same people time and time again, or whenever they need our services." Although a young man, being less One of FARM HOUSE One of the Barns than 32 years of age, Mr. Ward has experience that might go well, with a man twice his age, and his natural ability for the work and in handling his force of men has placed his company in its present position of prosperity. About two years ago the business was enlarged and incorporated. Mr. Ward holds the offices of president, treasurer and general manager, and, as indicated, controls the stock. To look back over the years it does not seem possible that in so short a time this business could possibly have reached the proportion it has now. The writer remembers Earl Ward sitting beside his father on one of the then two or three wagons constituting the business of his father on the East Broad street stand, and then to see him now in his finely appointed offices at 171 South Champion, with stenographer, bookkeeper, etc. With three or four large structures to the credit of his company, and with personal reality of no mean dimensions, with a growing business and a score of workmen, it means simply and Genera 1910 purely that strict application to the matter in hand and doing that work better than some one else and at a moderate price, has had its reward and that Mr. Ward is now reaping the benefits of his strenuous, hard working apprentice days. Data have been gathered in Germany with reference to the distance at which persons may be recognized by their faces and figures. If one has good eyes, the Germans claim, one cannot recognize a person whom he has seen only once at a greater distance than 82 feet. If the person is well known to one, one may recognize him at 300 feet and if it is a member of one's family, even at 500 feet.—Scientific American. Interesting Belic of Old Days Interesting Rite of Old Days. The remains of the old Roman boat found embedded in Thames mud during the sinking of the foundations of the London county hall, at Westminster bridge, were transferred to the London museum. A coin which was found in the boat points to its date being probably about 293-295 A. D. Researchers have led to the opinion that the old boat is probably a relic of the first fleet formed to protect the shores of Britain. Strive Always for His'er Things Sad will be the day for any man when he becomes contented with the thoughts he is thinking and the deeds he is doing—when there is not forever beating at the doors of his soul some great desire to do something larger which he knows that he was meant and made to do.—Phillips Brooks. About 250,000 immigrants are turned back every year by the immigration officials of this country.

Guard Against Undesirables Be Generous in Judgment. Every man should be judged by his best, or, if not by his best alone, by the general tenor of his life, and we doubt whether any good is gained by dwelling upon the defects of a good man's life, even though it may make him seem more "human." James McNeil Whistler is said once to have confronted Oscar Wilde—at the height of the aesthetic movement—with Du Maurier, who was satirizing the Postlethwaftes in Punch with all his might, and to have genially inquired: "Which of you two invented the other?"

My little boy, three years old, troubled me considerably by going to the homes of neighbors without permission so I followed this plan, writes a mother. Whenever I give him permission to go I pin on him a little card on which is written the word "permission." When the neighbors see the badge they allow him to stay and play with the children. If he appears without it: they send him home. The card can be used many times, and the boy enjoys wearing it. Practically Indestructible A flight of stairs has been erected in Paris over which 14,000,000 persons have passed without so much as scratching the surface. These steps are almost imperishable, for in the concrete of which they are constructed a generous proportion of carburundum has been introduced, and since carburundum is almost as hard as the diamond, it has given the concrete a wearing quality which no marble or granite could possibly approach.

In their first walk of the season at Wobrook-in-the-Hills the judge and his wife stopped at the Bartons' to inquire for Mose, who was reported to have been "more'n common allin' 'long back.' They found Mrs. Barton in the garden, weeding. "Yes, he was awful bad all last winter," she said, gradually rising, and straightening up. "First he had gripe, an' that left his heart weak, an' long toward March his liver kind o' got out o' whack. Then Mose sent for doctor, an' he called it 'complication o' discases." "You're a sleek man," says doctor. "I know that, says Mose, 'thou you're* tellin' me!' You know his way? 'But this complication, 's you call it, is what stumps me. I guess I'd better get well—'an he did!" "Sutin' in that, eh, squire?" said Mose, suddenly appearing from behind the house. "Much!' asserted the judge. "Didn't find my argument in a book, same as you would, squire." Mose continued. "Got it up on the hills, from the old Collin's barn—'member it?' "I should say I did!' said the judge, smiling reminiscently; 'roofless, practically and open on all sides!'

DREAMS, JUST DREAMS By Ananias, oe era eee ome ee Shree Seete, Speclal to the Daily Budget: Recently the town was thrown into a whirl of exeltement when it was rumored that one of Chicago's moneyed men would be in their midst for the express purpose of buying a tract of land extending from the court- house on the northwest to the univer. sity on the southeast. The telegraph wires were kept busy, and when It was learned that he would arrive on 3 certain night the eltizens appointed & committee composed of the sheriff and the leader of the Salvation Army to mect him at the station and bring him to a chop suey joint, there to meet the prominent people, have a bite to ent and receive the keys of the city. About twenty minutes before train time a long, lank figure was seen coming down the track, carrying a carpet bag, and as he neared the sta- tion the committee, having seen his picture on bottles of tooth powder, ree- ognized him as Dr. Asa D. Barnes. He said in brief, as they gave him the glad hand: “I came over the B. & O. 1 got tired sitting in the car, so walked along ahead of il. Regard- ing my proposed purchase of land, you know T live in a flat, and [ wished to use it as a playground for my son, “Prince Henry’ the 2d. I didn't bring any money with me this time; I never buy a pig in a bag, so will take a handful of dirt home with me and have it analyzed and see if it is clean enough for my son to play ou.” The committee never left the depot, and when the B. & O. finally did pull up they put Asa in the baggage coach ahead and told the brakeman they didn’t care where he put him off. eee “Phere is nothing new under the sun” is an old saying, but Alex Stev- ens, the restaurant man who draws the epicures, says there is, and cites this ay proof; A stylishly dressed young lady dropped in his cafe the other evening, ordered everything on the bill ‘of fare and some things that were not ‘on it.

Scrappy Little Third Baseman Made Sensational Catch of Hot Hit Over ‘Third Baso and Caught Run- ner at Home Plate. (By “WID" CONROY.) ‘The greatest play I ever heard of was the one “Tacky Tom” Parrott made when he mistook an English sparrow for a line fly and caught it with one hand after a hard run. But the greatest I ever saw I believe was one Elberfeld pulled off in a game against New York a couple of years ago. The game was close and up to the ninth, the score was tied, and the way things were breaking it looked aa if we had the better chance to win out aa we were hitting thelr pitcher hard- er than they were hitting ours. Bl- berfeld was playing toird, and in the ninth inning of the game New York Bot a base hit, then I Kicked one, and finally the kid kicked one and filled the bases with no one out. it waa Saturday and there was a big crowd ‘out and everyone in the stands seem- ed to cut loose at once to tell me and the kid what they thought of us as ball players. They called us every- thing they could think of, and one big fellow over in the bleachers stood up and informed me I was a disgrace to the Irish. It just goes to show’ how quickly a player can turn from a hero Ym a dub in the eyes of the fans. “The next batter hit the ball hard and almost over the top of third base. When he hit it the runners on firet and second were going with the pitch, but for some reason the runner on third was late in starting and that made the play possible. Elberfeld jumped at the ball and stabbed it with one hand back of.the base. That might have happened ‘with any fleld- er. It wasn’t the stop itself: that made the play seem so great to me, but the way Elberfeld acted and ss weet eo ae ome LX i as Seemate 1: 1 en! es a re rh (ae ae. gag ee a ‘ ES Wid" Canroy. thought. He jumped to third base, touched the bag, forcing the runner coming up from second, and then slammed tbe ball to the plate—and the catcher tagged out the runner there and made the double play. That saved us and we won out in the tenth, Elverfeld had figured a soon as he got the ball that the only way he could make a double play was back- wards, and knowing the batter was fast he played to the plate for the runner who was off to a bad start. He must have had almost half a sec- ond tn which to figure it out, but he calculated it perfectly, (Copyright, 1911, by W. G. Chapman.) MILLERS TO HAVE NEW PARK \f Negotiations Prove Successful Min- neapotis Wil! Have Modern Grand- gtand In Two Yeare. Minneapolis followers of the nation- al pastime took notice the other day when the story leaked out that the Cantillons have in mind the making of a new baseball park within easy walking distance of the center of the bustifess district, to have a seating ca- pacity double that of Nicollet park. ‘The Cantillons, it ts stated, are dick- ering for coveted property, and the building of the new park hinges whol- ly upon their ability to close the deal. Even if the negotiations are sue- cessftl, it is stated, it fe unlikely that the park will be ready for occupancy next season, In the event of purchase ‘the buildmg of a modern grandstand, te bleachers and the diamond will be timed so that the 1913 season will find the Minneapolis team of the American association in a new and superb home.

"The last time I was at a circus," answered Merrien, "was when I was a little shaver with but a dime of my own. All morning I helped around the tent, fed the animals, brought pail after pall of water to the elephants, arranged the seats for the crowd and one hundred and one things in return for a bit of pasteboard which would admit one in the afternoon to the wonders of circusdom." "Do you still remember how wonderful and magnificent it all seemed?" "Hardly; my labs tired me out so that with all the noise, the dln, the shouting and the music of the band, I slept through the entire performance." "Let's go to the show this evening," said Sydney. "I was presented with two box seat tickets for allowing some posters of thrillers in the window of our shop." Merlven and Sydney were astounded at the number of grown-ups present at the circus, how really fascinating the circus was to adults and how bewildering to try to watch the three rings at one lime. "The girl on that white horse is a marvel. So graceful and supple; she rides as easily as if she was seated in a rocking chair. How modest she is; nothing 'circusy' about her," said Merlven. "She can't be more than sixteen," answered his friend. "Outrageous for a girl no more than sixteen years of age to waste her A "She Can't Be More Than Sixteen." youth and beauty in a traveling show. How in the world did she happen to join a circus? Sometimes whole families travel together, but there is no one else with the same name on the program." "Look, that horse kicked 'Mademoiselle La Tour,'" exclaimed Meriven, excitedly. "Is she hurt? No, though that brave child must have felt the tumble; she's up again smiling and bowing to the crowd as if nothing had happened." "She's a brave one," said Meriven, joining the aplause. The little circus rider was constantly in Meriven's thoughts, and the following evening found him again in the box. No only that night, but for four consecutive performances did he await the entrance of the daring young equestrienne. Finally his desire to know something of the girl drew him to the box office, where he inquired: "If it were possible to assist her in some manner that she could earn her living in a less perilous fashion or probably make it possible for her to continue her neglected education." "I am sure your intentions are most honorable, young man, but don't waste your sympathy on 'Mademoiselle La Tour,' who is the wife of the leading clown in the show. They both work double time to help pay their son's way through college. Now if you would like to meet their daughter," continued the manager, "who is standing over there with her young baby in her arms talking to her husband, 'the trapeze artist,' I'll be glad to introduce you." "No, thank you," said Mertven, as he turned away from the box office. "How much wiser I was as a little kid to sleep through the whole show than wasting my pity on some young man's mother and spending eight dollars for box seats to plan the future education of that baby's grandmother." Hurrled Eating. One of the causes which leads to over-eating, especially among men and busy people generally, is the haste which frequently attends their meals. There is no enemy of over-eating like deliberation. If any of you doubt this, just try it! Eat slowly, masticating your food carefully, and see if you don't satisfy your appetite with less than you do when you gulp down each hurried mouthful. But more time might be given to eating than is often granted it by busy persons. You cannot enjoy your food when you eat it in a rush, and you spoll yourself for all future enjoyment by upsetting your digestive apparatus. When you eat slowly you accomplish two ends, for you eat less and have more pleasure in the process. Washington Irving—a Steamer. The new steamer of the Hudson River line is to carry six thousand passengers. To those who know and love the river and the boats that ply on it this yielding to the size mania will not be pleasant. There is compensation, however, for the boat is to be named Washington Irving. The present largest boat on the river is the Hendrick Hudson, and it is right that the man of letters should overshadow the discoverer. The Washington Irving, it is said, will have a greater licensed capacity than any other steamboat in the world—Detroit Free Press.

RACE MAKING GREAT PROGRESS. By Turner Tandy. By Special Correspondent of Chicago Defender. Miss Mary Ashby leaves today for a two weeks' visit in Chicago. Misses Edith Howard, Anna Clemens and Bert Ward are employed at Keith's new vaudeville house, newly opened here. Rev. B. F. McWilliams of the Third Baptist church preached the diamond anniversary sermon at the Second Baptist church of Detroit last Sunday. While in that city he was the guest of Rev. Bradley. Mrs. W. W. Miller of Athens, Ohio, was the guest of Mrs. F. O. Vaughn while attending the Baptist state convention. Rev. Curry of Curry's school and Rev. Merritt, the Baptist state missionary, occupied the pulpit during the absence of the pastor of the Third Baptist church. The second day of the Ohio state convention pledged $500 toward the debt on the temple. They also pledged an amount to help the home for infirm ministers. Officers elected were as follows: Rev. A. M. Thomas, president; Rev. J. C. Taylor, vice president; Rev. D. D. Phillips, secretary, and Rev. G. Gordon, treasurer. The Rev. W. B. Lee was sent back to Toledo for another year. The sixteenth annual meeting of the Ohio State Colored B. Y. P. U. closed its sessions Sunday evening, bringing to an end the Ohio Baptist convention. Miss M. M. Kimball of the National Baptist Training School for Colored Girls in Washington, D. C., spoke of the work that is being done by that institution. The rest of the evening was taken up with a general B. Y. P. U. session. The installation of officers for the ensuing year by Rev. J. C. Taylor and the selection of the next meeting place, which will be at Zanesville, Ohio. The officers are; Rev. B. A. Mitchell, president; Mrs. P.

The light yellow-root of ginseng is highly esteemed by the Chinese as a stimulant. It is used, however, for almost every domestic and medicinal purpose, and specimens resembling the human body often command their weight in gold because of supposed occult virtues. China furnishes almost the sole market for ginseng. A Cat-Nin Harold had rescued the family cat from the well.

By Special Correspondent of Chicago Defender. Rev. J. H. Allen Returns. Lexington, Mo., Oct. 13.—Our beloved pastor, Rev. J. H. Allen, has been appointed as pastor of Zion Chapel A. M. E. church of Lexington for another year. He took $154 to the annual conference, which was the largest amount ever taken from our city since Rev. A. A. Gilbert's first year as pastor of Zion chapel. We all welcome him back to Lexington. During his two weeks' absence the members of Zion chapel have been worshiping with the St. John's M. E. church and the Second Baptist church. Rev. J. H. Allen will fill the pulpit at Zion chapel Sunday, Oct. 15. Change in Business. Albert McKinney and Arthur Slaughter now have charge of the "Aro-American" steam cleaning and dyeing company at the Masonic temple building on 10th street.

There has been a considerable change in the weather for the past few days in this part of the country. Friday, Saturday and Sunday it was quite cold and an overcoat and a little fire felt pretty good. This Means You. Won't you please help your humble editor, J. H. Arnold, to continue having the news of Lexington published in this paper every week by paying him 25 cents or 75 cents for three months' subscription for this paper. We now have 38 subscribers on our list. Please help to raise it up to 75 or 80. Personals. Dr. J. D. Ball has been confined to his home for the past week on account of rheumatism. Mrs. Julia Morris, who has been spending the summer in Chicago with her son James, returned home to Lexington Saturday evening. Miss Cordelia Hayden returned home to Lexington Friday evening after spending two months in Iowa with relatives and friends. Miss Minnie Meyers returned to Lexington Sunday evening after spending three months with friends in Kansas City, Mo. Pit Brow Lassies How difficult it is to make laws to suit everybody is illustrated again in the tale which comes from England about the lassies of Lancashire. The poor slaves! They spend their young lives pushing heavy coal tubs to the pit brows of the mines. No decent civilization would permit its women to be so injured! So the philanthropists argued, and straightway a bill was passed for bidding the employment of women at the pit brows. But were the beneficiaries grateful? Not at all. They were. A deputation of them traveled to an under the aegis of the mayor and man's wife of Wigan to urge the repeal of the law! They all looked healthy" says the report, "and well dressed for their station." They are quite able to do the work, they protested, and do not want any benevolent Parliamentary intervention in their behalf. Not the Other Extremity From Canon Beeching comes the following story: "It was the morning after the banquet, and a solicitous friend who had set beside Bishop Stubbs, happening to meet him, asked if he got home all right. The bishop looked slightly surprised at the question, at once added, with an apparent gleam of comprehension, 'Oh, yes, it was only my boots that were tight.'" FREE --- A. M. E. MINISTERS' MEETING. The A. M. E. preachers' meeting met Oct. 19. The newly elected officers were installed. They were presented by Rev. Dr. Graves and installed by Dr. Steward of Wayman chapel. Each of the newly elected officers were asked to make remarks. Mrs. Ida B. Wells Barnett was present and her remarks were very timely. Dr. Cook was elected to make the address of welcome to the parent body of the Mite Missionary Society of the A. M. E. church, to meet Nov. 9, 1911, at Quinn chapel. The ministers are planning to invade State street as a body of Christians to save our young men and women here. We, as ministers of the gospel, extend an invitation to the young people of the city of Chicago, to come to our Christian Endeavor societies and to all our services. We are out to save Chicago for God. Rev. J. T. Jenifer arose and spoke of the death of Bishop Handy. The ministers then went into devotional exercises. Rev. Jenifer led in fervent prayer. After the prayer Dr. Mc Cracken led in singing, "Nearer My God to Thee." Dr. A. J. Carey led in the discussion of the great needs of our city missions. He thought that some plan ought to be devised to sustain our missionary work in the city of Chicago. A committee of three was appointed to draw up resolutions to send to the widow of Bishop Handy, extending our sympathy to her in this hour of bereavement. Committee as follows: Rev. R. E. Wilson, Rev. Dr. Reeves and Rev. J. T. Jenifer. The ministers paid their annual dues. WALTERS A. M. E. ZION CHURCH. Corner 38th and Dearborn Sts. Rev. H. J. Callis, D. D. Pastor.

JEFFERSON GIVES A GERMAN WHIST PARTY IN HONOR OF MRS. D. H. MURRY. One of the most unique and novel affairs of the season was a German whist party given by Mrs. W. T. Jefferson of 4314 Forrestville avenue Wednesday afternoon from 1:30 to 5 in honor of Mrs. Daniel H. Murry of Washington, D.C. The novelty of the affair was that each table played differently. For instance, table No. 1 played straight whist, table No. 2 no trump, table No. 3 cards exposed, table No. 4 honors counted, and table No. 5 least points won. The choosing of your partner and table was done by small bouquets of flowers, and each table was decorated according to the color of the flowers. The table of honor, where Mrs. Murry sat, was No. 1; the flower pansy, decorations purple. All present had a delightful afternoon. A Difference.

COSTA RICAN IS DIGNIFIED He Loves Pomp and Ceremony and His Formal Banquets Are Distressingly Solemn. "The Costa Rican loves pomp and ceremony. He plays with diplomacy, and from force of habit strikes a threatening attitude toward the head of the government, whoever he may be, but never carries it so far as to provoke a revolution, as is done in the sister republics. "He is a perfect picture of the posing hero in the comic opera, never yet having been conquered by his enemy, but always on guard," writes a woman correspondent of Health Culture. "The old Spanish hildalgoes who warred with the Central American states did not consider the country around San Jose (reached then by a bridle path over the mountains) worth fighting for. "So they left the natives in possession and the consequence is that the peon, or barefooted native, driving his yoke or diminutive oxen, is nobody's slave. He owns his mule and cart, his little ratio of land and farmhouse.

"A dinner of fifty covers, with three kinds of wine, was tendered a foreign diplomat during our stay at the Hotel Imperial.

Will the Negro Continue to Rent in Cincinnati, Cincinnati, O., Oct. 13.—The Negro as a renter was the subject introduced to the reading and thinking public by Mr. Wm. Stevenson in one of his discourses recently and in his many remarks the enormity of renting was convincingly explained. Mr. Stevenson says "that out of the 6,000 heads of families in Cincinnati at least 4,000 of them rent their places of abode. This number renting homes at the average of $10 per month amounts to $48,000 per year. When this estimate is considered what, for instance, must be the outlay of finance for rent in larger cities, Chicago for instance? It is high time they should look to their own interest as the once popular song read, 'It's all gain' out and nothin' comin' in.' There is a goal to be reached in the purchasing of a hobby, something to be accomplished which brings all the tenacity of our being and in the end will be to us or our posterity a monumental evidence of our thrift and industry." IF MARY JANE IS 18, HOW OLD IS DR. BURROWS? A delightful smoker was given by Mrs. D. E. Burrows Thursday evening, Oct. 12, in honor of her husband's, Dr. D. E. Burrows', (?) birthday. A reporter has sought in every conceivable way to figure out the Doctor's age, but, alas, all efforts were in vain, and nothing remains now but patience. If the Doctor had been about to celebrate his wedding anniversary it would have been impossible to keep him from telling how many years it is. But why so reticent with the age, Doc.?

Sentiment tn favor of such a tax hos been growing since and if there fs any way of passing a law which will be constitutional and ef- fective at the Same time, to regulate this marriage barter, steps to go so will probably be taken in the next ses- ston of congress. There is an economic side to the marriage of our rich American girls to titled Europeans. It Is estimated that the purchase of these titles costs the enormous sum of $1.000,000,0u0 every ten yearse—a drain that tew countries in the world, perhaps no other country except our own, could stand.

MAKE FOR CONTRAST ONE REASON WHY GAUZES RE MAIN POPULAR. Combined With Silke or Satins They Give the Effect Just Now So Much Desired—Novelties : ‘Among New Materials. Transparent materials are just as Prominent among the new fabrics as they have been for several seasons past. And from alt advices to this hour, it seems that vellings are to be in quite as strong favor, for fall and winter as they were for spring and summer. So long as the overskirt remains—and it is even more popular now than it was three months ago— fabrics of contrasting material will continue to appear in the wardrobe. And what Is so effective in contrasts as silks or satins with gauzy weaves? Ono of the fancies for the next sea- son will undoubtedly be the veiling of brocades with chiffons, mousseline and thin marquisettes. Some of the new brocades provided for this use are Passing lovely, Many of them are shot ubundantly with gold in actual metal or colored silk, and the gleam of this metallic effect will, greatly en- hance the richness of handsome owns. Some chiffons are shot with tinsels or are embroidered with it. Embroidered effects among the trans- parent materials are abundant, For simpler gowns, the chiffona and their kind will continue to be used over stripes and checks and over changeable silks. There are a good many novelties among the new materials. @ne of them is a velvet of tweed offect in the two-toned shot appearance of the sturdy wool. ‘The result is not happy; but it is fashionable, whieh is the next thing. Changeable effects appear, not only among the new silks, but abundantly among the wools, even in the heavy suitings. And many of the | {Wo-toned wools which are mixed on one side and are plain on the other are shot or flecked with bright colors. Some of these color schemes are very effective. Dark tones with touches of bright color seem to be very much \iked by the tailors, who are buying up pieces in which they predominate as fast as they como in, The double- faced satins are here once more and promise to make the handsomest coats and capes for the fall with the under color cropping out in trimmings and the hoods which are so prevalent, Even the sweater has taken to itself 4 hood, the hood usually being of the accessory color. One such sweater was white, with a band of tan color down the front and around the neck, and the hood was of the tan. Big hoods are evidently coming in again for cold weather wraps.
