Tuskegee, Ala., Nov. 28.—Eight thousand and oople of both races, coming from the North and South, paid the last tribute to Washington, noted Negro leader, educator and writer, when with solemn but simple services he was laid to rest in the heart institute. Normal and Industrial institute, he instituted. He made famous through his life's work. Men and women of high and low degrees came to Tuskegee. Fully six thousand and a half years later state in the institute chapel Tuesday and Wednesday, while eight thousand came to the grounds today, hoping to gain knowledge where the observances were held. Simple Services Simplicity marked the services held in honor of the distinguished American. The ample simplicity and modesty which he on one occasion held in the presence of where, and there was an absence of the saturation and speechmaking usually bad on such occasions. Solomon was the occasion of the whole nation a friend and attractive character. Tuskegee's heart was bowed in sadness and the nation wounded the occasion was the optimism sounded to Tuskegee and her people by William G. Willex, friend of Booker T. Washington, the friend of the merchant firm committee of board. The only message read came from Chairman Seth Low. The lesson of Booker Washington, the necessity of unhiding it incumbent upon trustee, teacher and student alike, was stressed by Mr. Willex in a very impressive manner. Of his remarks he said: "Mr. Shirtefellin and I have come to you not only to bring the heartfelt sympathy of our board of trustees, which Mr. Low was the occasion of, but not only to join with you in loving tribute to a personal friend, but to assure you of the absolute confidence of its growth and usefulness. Time Will Tell. "This is no time for seuley of Dr. Washington's life and work. The future will fairly estimate its value and will greatly accord to him a high place among the truly great men of our beloved country. You who have so splendid upheld his hands, and without whose loyal and unselfish co-operation his great work never could have been accomplished, may well feel a solemn pride in the public appreciation which is even now voiced throughout the country. It is our own great loss, and as we clasp each other's hand in sympathy we wonder and perchance rebel at the strange disposition which has taken from us our beloved leader, whom to our finite eyes seemed so indispensable, and when we had reasonably looked forward to another twenty years of his wise and forceful leadership. We are tempted to say to ourselves how is it possible that the work should co on without him? "Let us take course and look to the future, and let us look at the future, and let us look at the great work to which Dr. Washington devoted his life is not only established in the confidence of both races, it cannot go backward. It must go forward. In the forward march of civilization it often happens that a great leader arises and, bearing the standard, presses forward with his enthusiastic followers, storming one stronghold after another—ignorance and prejudice and injustice; but when he falls and the colors drop from his hands, even while his will is going to be归宿, are it not his own and his perhaps wavering, a new leader takes his place and carries forward the triumphant banner to new achievements and victories." Add Zeal to Work. "In the Providence of God we must believe that Dr. Washington's great work was finished and that in His finite wisdom the time and come when the inspiration of Dr. Washington's death and the increased responsibility which must now be felt so keenly by all of us who are left behind may do more for the progress of our high ideals than many added of his personal work and leadership could have accomplished. Let us take heart and press forward with fresh courage and enthusiasm and with a high resolve to prove worthy of the great trust which now falls upon our shoulders. In the work before us the cause is everything the individual of nothing. There is no room for personal ambition, molotouy or factual difference, or demands, as never before, unanticipated and loyal co-operation they know you will we shall carry the institute co-will draw ther than ces will will not fall you in husshant and SATURDAY for a memorial expressed in Increased devotion and loyalty to his great cause. If we would show our appreciation of his life and honor his memory as he himself would wish, we shall make his death the occasion for renewed consolation to the family. If life was such an example and In which his memory will be such an inspiration." Thousands of telegrams came from men high up in American life, from prominent men who have been identified with Dr. Kline, and from men who vate the race and from hundreds of admirers of both races. Only a few were read at the funeral. Both the telegraph and the telephone were used to vate the race and it was necessary to send special operators from Montgomery. Former President Montgomery, former President Kline, died in what ought to be his prime, an arable loss to the nation. He was one of the powerful forces for the proper setup of the telegram, and appeared in his generation. His loving adoration to his fellow men, his inspiring encouragement to make themselves fully engaged upon the homey welfare of industry, thrift and persistent use of their opportunities, with a promise of higher success, urged upon the homey welfare of industry, thrift and persistent use of their opportunities, with a promise of higher success, urged upon the homey welfare of industry, thrift and persistent use of their progress. I knew Booker Washington well and valued him highly as a man of great intellectual force and practical executive faculty, a saying common sense which gave him the power he was. I greatly regret his death. Emmet O'Neil, former Governor of Alabama, sent the following message from Washington: "The South as well as the North have as many as six trustees. He had won the confidence of our people and no man since the Civil War did more to create harmonious relations between the races. Accept my sincerest sympathy." Special Wire. Seth Low, chairman of the board of trustees and former Mayor of New York, wrote in a letter to Mr. Washingson breathed his life away amid the scenes of his labors, surrounded by the symbols of his great achievements and the stories of his life. He himself and loved him as a leader sent from God. Let me remind you in your great sorrow that our God is not the God of the earth, but the God of the world was addressed to Mrs. Washington. Mr. Low sent still another to Warren Logan, acting principal, in which he stated: "On behalf of the board of trustees I send to teachers and students of the Tuskegee Institute, our warmest sympathy in the death of the school's great founder, his high country to the school and to his country has lost a great patriot and the race an inspiring life. It is now the hour to show, without his magnetic presence, by your loyalty to the school and to his high country to the school, the inspiration of his spirit and of his devoted life of service. The trustees will not fall you in your hour of need." A steady stream of people viewed the remains of the distinguished Negro educator, Dr. Tuskegee, and Wednesday morning. The most proactive floral tributes surrounded the casket in the institute chapel and occupied every room and in the choir loft. Flowers came from everywhere, and every ornament represented by a floral design, individual trustees, the Tuskegee railroad, the Atlanta and West Point. St. Luke's hospital, the Alabama Penny Prudential savings branches of the National Business League, the Alabama Penny Prudential savings branches of both races who knew Dr. Washington paid silent tribute in the language of flowers. It required two express cars to reach the flowers from Chewah to Tuskegee. The tribute paid by the people of Tuskegee town was most touching. All of Tuesday and Wednesday morning in automobiles, carriages and afloat they came, both races, to take the last glance at the features of the man they expected to walk, admitted whose energy he was in, admitted to the map. The Mayor of Tuskegee personally circulated a petition to the business houses to close during the hours of the funeral, and not one refused. The Mayor and not one refused the City County (Court made it clear). North and South Present. Special Wire.

PROFESSOR L. A. KIRKSEY, REV. M. C. H. DILLIARD, ROBERT T. THOMAS. CHICAGO, NOVEMBER 27, 1915 DISTRICT SUPREME COURT RULES AGAINST EX-SLAVES AND HEIRS Attorney Johnson Falls in Amended Bill of Complaint Against Secretary of the Treasury—Statute of Limitations a Bar to Suit. Washington, D. C., Nov. 26.—Justice McCoy of the District supreme court has dismissed an amended bill of complaint filed by II. N. Johnson of Louisiana and other men against Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo. The plaintiffs sought to establish a lien for themselves and the descendants of former slaves on an alleged fund of $65,000,000 said to have been collected by internal revenue officers on the cotton picked and prepared for the market through involuntary services of their ancestors as slaves. Secretary McAdoo, through United States District Attorney Faskey and his assistant, moved to quash the proceedings on the grounds that Mr. McAdoo had no personal interest in the fund in question and that the proceedings were an attempt to sue the United States for property in its possession. If the plaintiffs had any right, the defendant claimed, they had lost it by delaying too long their efforts to establish it. This practically ends the case, which competent lawyers say should never have been instituted. LODGE GIVES OLD- FASHIONED SUPPER By J. F. Edwards.

The Consensus of Opinion in the Wise Circles Is Major Motion Is the Most Logical Candidate to Fill the Vacant Chair. (Special to Chicago Defender.) New Orleans, La., Nov. 26.—The fact that the desire of Mr. Logan, the treasurer of Tuskegee, also Mrs. Washington, the president of the man who should be considered has come to the surface. The reasons given are that no man living was more intimately associated with Washington during his life work. This of Washington is the reason on Major Moton's shoulders.

HAMPTON HOLDS MEMORIAL SERVICE Associate Chaplain Conducts Solenn Service for Former Student and Pays Touching Tribute Special to Chicago Defender Hampton, Va., Nov. 26—Rev. Lawrence Fenninger, associate chaplain of Hampton institute, conducted the memo-service which was held in Memorial Church on Monday, November 17, while the funeral service for Dr. Washington was being conducted at Puskegue institute. Mr. he was so well known, and to you who know so well, it would not be fitting for me to speak of Dr. Washington. I did always cherish the memory of the few times I met him. He impressed me chiefly as a prophet, as a man with all the eyes that saw, ears that heard, a heart that understood. And it was just these blessings that he endeavored to give sight to blind men; he strove to give sight to blind eyes; he cried to bind and all with hope hearts that were broken. His were gifts that increased, being shared. As I think increased my mind to the great schoolmaster and the leader of English thought, Thomas Arnold, the old headmaster of Rugby, and know of no other of the institution that could offer to Dr. Washington than to say of him as was said of Thomas Arnold: "But that you wouldn't alone Be saved, my father! Alone Conquer and come to the goal, the rest in the wild. Still, with the help of your Beckonet the trembles, and still Gavest the weary thy hand. It, in the path of the world, Stones might have wounded thy feet, Toll or defection have tried Thy spirit, of that we saw Stones, of that we saw Cherful, and helpful, and firm Therefore to thee it was given Many to save with thyself; Thy spirit, of that we saw O faithful shepherd to those Bringing thy sheep in thy hand." Mr. Fenninger also read the lines of Paul Laurence D. Danbar on Dr. Booker the author of *The Plantation melodies*, including "I Want to Be Ready," "In Bright Man-ly Light," and "Let the Henven Light Shine on Me." "God,edom," and "Cheer the Weary Traveler." JACKSON WILL STAY. Good Reasons Must Be Given Before Aged Employee In the Department Can Be Given (Special to Chicago Defender) Springfield, O.

Leaders in High Repute, of Bot Eulogize Booker Taliaferro V ton—Tuskegee Will Ever S Monument to His Ze Rev. Jenkin Lloyd Jones Cloj By Cella M. Mallett. Sunday afternoon, Nov. 21, was the date set at the Lincoln Center to do honor to the memory of Dr. Washington, the true friend of all nations, who gave his life to the great work at his wonderful time, and to his遗骸. Leaf after leaf was added to his obeisance. Leaf after leaf was added to his obeisance. Many eminent speakers, Dr. G. C. Hall, told of his friendship with the great educator and likened him to a prophet—one who had a vision, saw his great work ahead of him, and had lived to see a great man. He became vision realized—Tuskegee Institute. The Hon. E. H. Wright began the exercises with the following address in Dr. Washington's honor: “In thousands of homes, yea, in hundreds of thousands of homes over this country today, there is a feeling of sorrow and sadness because a useful member of society has been removed from the school, and the great work in the mansions of fullness of strength has been held low; a man who carved out his own path, pursued it, which tended to the elevation of his fellow men, to the betterment of his country; one who was instrumental in the hands of a high power to reach the great field of endeavor, but result in the great time he appeared.” “Frederick L. Loughlass said: ‘Judge us not by the, heights at which we have attained, but by the, lengths from which we have come.’ Measured by that rule, Booker T. Washington alluded the greatest heights that man could attain. Come, and let us look at the great work that was attained the heights of usefulness and was an American, foremost of these—all foremost because of his counsels with presidents and governors, not foremost because he was on intimate terms with the health, but foremost because he believed that his work was not so good as he believed that the whole country, of his people and the bringing about of better conditions for the whole country. "Dr. Washington in his lifetime possibly and some critics, some of those who would die for him, do so far enough in this line or that. He was able to achieve results and he achieved them. He was working to fit his people for the respon- sibility of citizens and was the pioneer in the great demand of the present day for efficiency. "We hear of preparedness for war, prepa- rise, and emergency that might arise. In my opinion the war was the first advocate of this. He advocated it for his race, and in doing this he prepared the cooperation and the assistance of those who were able to help them then and to bring about a better feeling, a better under- standing of the situation, and who were able to help and those who were able to help and it is that some say that along certain lines he might have had a dream in his early years, and it was of service to his people, ideas of the masses, and his preparing of them for usefulness. How well he succeeded in thousands of dollars represent- ed in Turkish and of well-educated workmen all over this country that left school will give the job. It isn't given to any man to perform all the work needed for humanity. Let his critics take up the line of endeavor that was deficient and do so much to bring about as much good as Booker Washington did. It can't given to any one man to achieve great honor and success in various avenues. If a human being can achieve success and honor in one line that is good for humanity, they have done their thing." "Booker T. Washington did his work. He did well. The sorrowing hearts of the young men of Washington land attest the fact that they believe he did his part. He exemplified as good as any man that honor or fame from no one the honor lies. He your wall your part. There all the honor lies. He your wall your part. White and black honor the memory of Booker T. Washington because he acted well his part. He contributed to a time, a place, a person. The world is better for his living. "If I were to select tribute to be placed upon his brombite would write upon it. He Acted Well His People mate in which this country and all the people hold him—He Acted Well His Part. He honor him, revise his memory. The enduring monument will be the best tombstone and monument over his grave because he acted his part so well." Ella Flagg Young Tells, "Less than years ago, I had the pleasure of making years of trouble. I went there with the same idea that I presume is in the mind of everyone of my own race. I had heard about the Mr. Washington, and I went down on a trip that was very good work for a man of another race.

GREAT THINKERS LIKED PIE Noted Philosophers Celebrated for Their Fendness for Common-place Dessert. Commenting on the inconsistencies of longevity, a writer recently cited the fact that, though a lifelong devotee to apple pie, Emerson lived to be over seventy eight years old. That, however, is not the important fact. Many perennials even a greater age. The distinctive feature of Emerson's pie-cating career is the wholesome, cheerful and thought-compiling system of philosophy which it brought forth. Constructive that apple pie had much to do with Emersonian optimism is no task at all. Thomas Carlyle, whose discipline and friend Emerson was, never at pleo, and although as great a lover of mankind as was the sage of Cordoc, Carlyle was a victim of all his ancholia and dyspepsia and hard words. By intellectual descent and association Carlyle was a German, his thought being fed by Goethe, Schiller and others of that great group. But he adhered to the Scottish diet, which included philosophy, and so he became physically and mentally dyspeptic. Ple might have saved him had he taken it in time. Further to emphasize the point that pleo, or apple pleo, at any rate, is the product of necessity to cite the fact that Nietzsche, who in his unspoiled years, was a devout and cheerful discipline of Emerson, became the materialistic "superman" of Nietzsche's later plesees. In budding philosophers who read these solemn words should be warned in time. Craigleave Manor The charm of grecious manners and consideration for other human beings is a quality that develops rapidly if given half a chance. The woman who is always kind creates an atmosphere of warmth and friendliness on her head. If you are naturally shy and reticent, it is all the more necessary that you should endeavor to shine a bit. It is not lack of pleasant conversation that worries the self-conscious, but the need to be sensitive to them. You must try to make yourself companionable to others. Life In Its Various Forms. The sea teems with plant and animals, and it has been estimated that the amount of life in the sea exceeds that of the sand, square mile for square mile, everywhere, even at the greatest depth; it pours its bounties best at or near the shore. On the oak or sand, plant life seems to be as absent; over the hot sand, it is more abundant at the surface, where the sunlight plays an important part in its growth. Handkerchief Newspapers. Pocket handkerchief: newspapers were issued in England in the early part of the last century while journals were subject to the stamp duty.

The price of this novel newspaper was fourpence. Wealth In India. Immense fortunes in india are in jewels, but there is no authoritative method of computation of the extent of this form of wealth.

EXTRAORDINARY INCIDENTS AT WORLD-FAMOUS TRACK. Ambition of Every Sportman Interested in Game is to Win Great Contest—Lord George Bentick's Sore Disappointment. Since S. Armull rode Diomed to victory in the English Derby in 1780 some extraordinary incidents have occurred in connection with this world-famous race, to win which princes and queens have sacrificed fortunes without success, says a writer in London Answers. Time was when the house of commons was wont to adjourn on Derby day, so that the faded legislators could run down and bask in the breezes which blew o'er Epsom Downs. Again, when the great Crimean war was raging, parliament ordered that the result of the race should be included in general orders. From time immemorial the Derby has been marked by sensations. On three occasions, for example, horses starting at the forlorn odds of 100 to 1 against have captured the clastic start of the race ten years later, and Abovey, two years ago, were their names, and their performances recall others which will stand out prominent in turf history for all time. In 1913, one remembers, the race was terrible episode of the Derby, sacrificed her life in a vain attempt to stop the horse, whilst, as a kind of anticlimax, came the disqualification of Craganour after finishing first. Last year we had the memorable scratching of the Tetrarch, the quantily-colored of the rocking-horse type, of whom such great things were expected. Whenever the great Epsom carnival comes round, sportsmen, young and old, talk about the Snowstorm Dorbay, when Hermit, starting at 62 to 1 anoint, owing to a report that he was sent to him a trophy, him a fortune. Daley, the jockey who bestrode the successful animal, received a present of £3,000 from the owner, and the victory went a long way toward ruining the plunging marquese. As to dressing, what could be more tragic than the action of that famous sportsman, Lord George Bontnick? Lord George, after spending a lifetime in attempting to win the Dorbay, sold all his horses in disgust for a lump sum of £10,000 and retired from turt with his ambition ungratified. Included in the sold racers was Surplice, who, ironically enough, carried off the Dorbay in 1348. After Surplice also won the St. Leger, he days inter Lord George Bontnick was dead on his estate at Welbeck. When Bend Or won the blue ribbon for the duke of Westminster, the winner was immediately objected to, the allegation being that he was not the horse staller but Tadcaster, and that Tadcaster had been the winner. There was a tremendous amount of excitement, as fabulous sums were at stake, but after interrogating everyone connected, from the stall groomes upward, the authorities decided in favor that the latter afterward became additionally the size of the celebrated Ormunda. Chance for Ulys Men. There's all kinds of hope for the men in the back row—those whose facial scenery is not attractively arranged. A whole bunch of beauties in a Broadway chorus declare they just love an ugly mug, because the machinery in its think box is always well oiled. It does not matter how much pretty man could easily be carried in the vest pocket of a mosquito. And by way of an argument, one girl says: "Go right through the world's history and you will find that the really big men—the men who have done things—were ugly. Women admire them because they are distinctive forces, because they are big and strong, both physically and intellectually, and it is a distinct feminine quality to love and crave for that we lack. I wager there are many women who have secret admiration for this or that prize fighter because of his physical force, and I know lots of them who make no bones about being 'crazy' about this or that football hero." So it all settled. "I want to be pretty" men to entertain and fond matrimonial hopes where this beauty contingent is concerned—New York Times. Prescribes Souss Party The doctors are prescribing some queer things for those who are unable to woo Morpheus, says the New York Sun. One doctor ordered a patient to take an all-night ride in a Pullman, while another prescribed a seuxe party for his patient. The other patient was a second-sex physician that he waked up every morning at two and could not sleep after that hour, he was ordered to get an alarm clock. "Set the alarm for 15 minutes before two," advised the doctor. "As soon as it strikes, get up and take a walk. Do not go to bed again that day under any circumference." The second-day set the alarm at a quarter past two. You will sleep until it wakes you. Get up as before and take another walk. The third night you can venture to set your alarm at three. Repeat the walk. If you are not cured by that time you will be a more different case than any I have had here. You will be held up and the blow he got on the coco has helped him to catch up in his sleep. Pollite Substitution: "What makes you keep sayin', 'Oh, War! Oh, War!'?" asked the paper-hanger.

In the confession of a certain famous man it is recorded that during his marriage he afterward happily married, the never once ventured to write to her except on a postcard. "Emma would have heard from me frequently," he says, according to a writer in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, "and would expect what is called a love letter. I am capable of conveying some account of my affairs by the pen, but I cannot, and never could, enlarge on the subject of my emotions. I am not sentimental, or at any rate, I am not sentimental on paper. I would like many women realize this masculine peculiarity and make adequate allowance for it? There is a convention between betrothed couples that an ardent correspondence should contain some assurance of affection. It is a custom which bears very hard on some male temperaments. The happy young girl listening for the postman's knock and hoping for "just a scribble" from her flance, little knows how considerable has been the labor of producing that scribble. Prociously because he has had difficulty writing, the rival testifies to his fondness. The writing of the scribble has been a real sacrifice of time, as well as a considerable struggle for ideas. Nevertheless, the essential quantity of the lover's "scribble" is subtly absent. For the prime characteristic of a love letter, the "scribble" or not, is that it should be spoken. To be a fluent writer of love letters is given to few men—professional authors apart—and the girl who has become engaged and who enforces a rule that she shall receive a perforid outpouring of epistolary art at regular intervals from her future husband is conceivably making a profound mistake. For she is causing him to be untrue to himself—for her sake. Not that his *hond* speeches, when he and she are alone with each other, are untrue. But for him the putting of similar *fond* speech on paper is untrue, inasmuch as he is of those who have to think out what they write and what they hear, not "thought out;" they come spontaneously and that is their beauty. Chemical Dollacles The composition of the homely German Wurst—palatable and pleasant enough, whatever may have been in the recipe, is more nothing compared with the chemical delicacies German experts are now offering to a hungry public. A firm in the Berlin Ritterstrasse spreads great big advertisements and recipes, and it is easy to announce that it has artificial omelets, butter, honey, marmalade, coffee and milk for sale in any quantities, and guarantees that no one could ever know that they were not absorbing. A chemist in the suburb of Charlottenburg advertises egg-powder, a pen-y-worth of which is sufficient to replace two real eggs. Another offers a starch sirup—as agreeable as it is mindful. Berliners are said to be thriving on all these delicacies, which, taken with K. K. bread, and washed down with the new war beer, constitute a meal fit for any patriot bent on eating chiefly for the welfare of the Fathor- Another One on Taft "Uncle Jee" Cannon tells this tale on ex-President Taft, though he is always careful to assure his hearers that he will not vouch for the accuracy of it: when the president was merely Mr. Secretary and was visiting Japan on his famous trip through the far East. Mr. Taft was caught fast asleep in a hammock by a moving picture man, and this interesting film was being shown at a county fair in my home state, Illinois. The motion picture was being reeled off to a picture man, and this spectators, when a huge flaw line suddenly darted across the film and the screen went dark. "Land o' mercy, Hiram," gasped an old lady in the rear of the hall, what was that? "push up, Mirandy," creaked the husband. "Don't yew ask so many questions. I reckon that's where the hammock busted." Squire Would Stand. Squire Parkins bought a call one day and endeavored to lead it home with a short rope. For greater safety he tied the rope around his own body. The calf got frightened and dragged an worthy squirrel through the fence and various other articles of scenery. Finally some interested spectators cornered the pair and started to loosen the rope from the squirrel's waist. He was so nearly out of breath he couldn't say anything for a moment, but he did. "Unite the calf; never mind me, I'll stand."—"Everybody's Magazine.

MEET TOHONOR LEADER With a Spirit to Pay Homage to One Whom They Loved Young and Old Pay Respectful Tribute. CITIZENS COMBINE The Life of Booker T. Washington Per-trayed by Dr. J. F. Anderson in An able Address in Touching Manner. Bugelaus, L., Nov. 26. - The memorial service held here November 12 at the A. M. E. Church in honor of Booker T. Washington will long live in our memory for the tenure of this great leader. The service was planned by Professor Z. D. Le-ler, Professor D. J. Anderson, Teachers, pupils and churches combined to do homage to the honored dead. The address of Dr. J. F. Anderson was as "Master of Ceremonies, Scholars, Teachers, Visiting Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen: It is with the greatest regret that I recall the incident that has brought us together, viz: the demise of Dr. Booker T. Washington. Immediately upon hearing of it there was brought to my mind a biblical incident, and the words which I shall spoken on that occasion, which I shall have as my theme. It was on the death of Abner, the Neve, the hand of Joab in avenging the death of his brother, Ashall. When the news reached David he mourned and fasted and commanded his people to do the same. When he had recovered from his grief he said unto his servants: 'Know ye not that there is a prince and a great man fallen this day in Israel?' With equal fitness this may be applied to Dr. Booker T. Washington. He was the prince of the colored race, and indeed a great man. It was not his learning that made him great. He was a very many at whose feet he would gladly have had no power to be for he was the child of poor slave parents. Not his personality. Not riches. But it was magnanimity backed up by force of energy and determination. "Born a slave, with all the curse of slavery upon him, he was not favored, like many of you children, with fine clothes and comfortable home. I can remember pictures of his early life, with a one-piece garment and a hat big enough to cover the world, and bare feet, even when starting out as a student for Hampton. But I despite these unfavorable and thwarting circumstances, there evolved in process of time this prince and leader of men." "We must not only refer to him as a man of the qualifications therefor. As such he was daring, determined, diplomatic, and intelligent. "I can summon no greater evidence of these qualities than the movement which own him has made. Because his truth was men believed in him. Because of his honesty men account of him in the directory account of himself on every occasion." He found the mind made him not only the friend of the world, but also of the poor and ignorant of his race, whom he devoted his life to uplift. In this his greatness shines in all its luster. He never forgot the humble state from which he sprang, and was ever proud to tell it. He had no enemies except those who were jealous of him. As a Southerner he was devoted to the South. I remember hearing him for the first time in Howard University, and among the many things he said were these: I was born in the South. I was reared in the South. All I am is from the South. I have given my life to the South, and I will do much to give them. "It is not too much to say that Dr. Washington died a martyr to his race. It is true that no assassin's bullet pierced his body; no knife the bloody homicide pierced his breast. Still he fell a martyr to the race. Oh, if as a people we could realize the loss we have sustained! His death has created a vacancy that cannot be filled—at least not for a long time. He stood unique in his setting. I am proud of him. Would that I were pointing at some boy in this audience—and I feel that I am—who is determined to make an effort to take his place. It is possible. It is probable. His life was ever an inspiration to us, and we trust his death to us. We have no doubt that his history of the future of these United States would not be authentic or complete without special mention of Booker T. Washington." "We can with reluctance dismiss the subject for a while only with the consolation that we have accomplished more in his death than in his life, and that he has gone home to enrol in a reward commensurate with his endeavor." We bow our heads in sorrow over our great leader we in our hearts join with men the world over and angels in our hearts. Original Forms of Life It is believed that the original forms of life began in the ocean many million years ago, and at no time since has life there ceased. Many of the earliest forms are now extinct; others have gradually increased in number and variety from their beginning to the present time. How long ago life began no one has definitely determined; but some have been estimated. Hon years ago, for the remains of extinct animals and plants are found in the oldest sedimentary rocks. Knew Value of His Work. Incomparably the best epitaph for Sir James Murray, greatest of dictionary makers, might be taken from one of the conversations between Johnson and Boswell. In old age Boswell said to Johnson, apropos of the dictionary: "I did not know what you were unaware." "Yes, sir," was the answer, "I was not aware of the undertaking—and very well now to do it—and have done it very well." Brief Missives. "I if I had had more time," a witty Frenchman used to write, "I coute have made this letter shorter." Voltaire is credited with two of the bristlest on record. One said, "Alas," and the other "Bravo." They were a recognition of a woman's bereavement and remarriage. Up to Oneself. "You can't buy happiness, nor borrow trouble," said Uncle Eben.

With dog shows everywhere to the left of us and to the right, at national shows and the side shows, at outdoor fetes, many women will be glad to learn the origin of several popular breeds of the canine family. It is probable that few lovers of the canine breed—the bulldog—know whence he obtained his name. He is called a "bull" for the reason that formerly his services were employed in the driving of cattle. The dog was trained to meet the rushes of cattle and to triple expedient of seizing its charge by the most sensitive part, the nose. The spaniel, formerly one of the most popular species of dogs, gets its name from Spain, from which country the first breeds were sent to England and which time they were called "Spanish dogs." Some have thought that the fox terrier derived his name from the fox, by reason of his pointed fox-like musculus, but as a matter of fact the dog was a fox terrier. The fox fancied resemblance to Reynard. On the contrary the fox terrier is so named because in the days when he was much larger in size and of greater strength than now, he was emperor of the sportman to draw and kill the fox.

S ATTORNEY said, "All, youse fellows told me she WASN'T in the room." He said, "I knew she was in the room all the time. I told Captain Kane twlce and he paid no attention to me." The conversation ended there. Campbell said, "Father Peter Crumbly came in." "Were there any pieces of an alcohol jug in the hotel?" asked Atty. Barnett. "I told not see my." "Were there any pieces on the floor?" "No, sir." Campbell, speaking of the fire, said: "I ran up to the den, there was a whole crowd of men there. I saw Deputy Ryan. I said, 'My God, is Mrs. Allen in there?' He said, 'No,' I asked him again and he said, 'No,' Simpson's been there, felt the bed and come out. He says she isn't in there.' I was satisfied then and didn't say any more.' I ran through the living room and saw Miss Kathryn. She was standing on the far steps leading from the fourth floor. I said, 'Go back Miss Allen.' She said, 'I can't.' I threw my coat around her head for protection from the smoke and took her to her room. The smoke was too thick there. I took her to the taller shop on the fifth floor, then I came down stairs. A moment later Captain Kane told me to take charge of the room. "Campbell's Time Schedule," Following is the schedule as it stood when he finished: 5:40 a. m. — Left cellhouse to go to warden floor. 5:50 a. m.-Went to pantry to get pulcher of water. 5:51 a. m.—Went to Mrs. Allen's bedroom and to bathroom to prepare bath. 5:52 a. m.—Let bedroom. 5:53 a. m.—Let bedroom and went to kitchen, giving order to cook; talked to Larkin. 5:54 a. m.—Mid Simpson at head of stalk, talked for three minutes with him in the linen room and joked with Larkin, the guard in the hall. 6:03 a. m.—Started downstairs with the dog. 6:09 a. m.—Reached the railroad track at west end of front yard. 6:14 a. m.—Left tracks after playing with dog. 6:15 a. m.—Met Hart, the gardener, talked with him two or three minutes at greenhouse, talked about ten minutes with him at the fish pond farther up walk. 6:30 a. m.—Capt. Larkin told him of the fire. Campbell's story tallied closely with the one given at the coroner's inquest. Attorney Barnett asked for evening sessions of the court on Monday but Judge Hooper ruled against it. After Monday's session several prominent club women (white) surrounded Atty.

MONSTER MEMORIAL MEETING Use of Memorial Hall Given to Citizens Free of Charge—Governor Willis to Attend—Meeting to Be a Joint Affair, Both Races Participating to Honor Washington. Columbus, O., Nov. 26.—A monster memorial meeting will be held here next Sunday in memory of Dr. Booker T. Washington, at which there will be several distinguished speakers, among them Governor Frank B. Willis of this state. The memorial services will be held in Memorial Hall, the great auditorium to which ten thousand people surged to hear Dr. Washington speak on his last appearance in Columbus. The County Commissioners, who have control of Memorial Hall, did the very unusual thing of tendering the use of the hall to the committee making the arrangements, free of charge. It will be the largest and most impressive memorial services ever held in this city. Both races will join to pay tribute to the departed leader. The Daily Ohio State Journal, of this city, in its editorial on the death of the doctor, paid him the deserved tribute of saying "He was the leader of all races," and "If the race people will follow his advice they will leave the white people behind, and if the white people will follow his advice they will be a better people."

But he read his address, shook ..... with many and went away. From the middle of the past he presented a different face, and to each of his worthy deeds and praise him to one so great, one in his country to save his country and people. Washington is an event of world-wide interest and grief. His loss is not felt only by one person, but by all of the part of the civilized land. The results of his life work are unmeasurable and will remain in enduring memories throughout Jullus N. Rosenwald. "It isn't an easy matter for me to speak on this occasion. I don't believe at any time Mrs. Rosenwald and I felt more honored, and I may say our children with us when we had him Washington, to me to say that we have lost one of our greatest citizens. To my mind we have lost a man in Dr. Washington whom we have never met. United States, black or white. I have tried to think whom we could spare less than we could him. I can't think of one, let me know. I let me know. No one is indispensable to this nation as Booker T. Washington. I am sorry I cannot join in that conversation. I could call him back because his work was not done, and of course there is nothing for us to do but try to carry on his work in the best possible spirit that we can. "To my mind, great as his school is, and I am sure all of you know I have every reason to believe in him. He is second by long outlast of the great work that Washington did outside of Tuskegee that created the kindly feeling, or I had never heard of him, of great races. That part of his life work is what is most wonderful to me, more the bringing of his great school, more the teaching of his great school, more permission I shall read an editorial from the Boston Transcript, which is the best I have seen so far, and I have read every one of them. He was a great man by every act and along many lines; the leader of a race through the world, a citizen of America who was a great man by every act and just of slavery. He was a man whose life should inspire the entire world, a man whose life should inspire the entire world, an outcast and lived to work his wonderful plans—industrial education as a basis for usefulness. —"Boston Transcript, in the death of such a man the Negro race loses not only a leader but a prophet, and the whole country loses a great, noble Cella Parker Woolley. "Drop your buckets where you are" was one of his many mottoes. He did it. No one can but say that he did his part in the war. He was a portentist, as he has been called by some. He was a true friend to all, and what his life meant to me I am sure it meant to many others. Nothing but praises can be given to him in memory of Dr. Booker T. Washington." Rev. Jekin Lloyd Jones closed the services, thankking the Lincoln and Douglass centers for extending their hospitalization to those who honor the everlasting memory of Dr. Washington. His lifelong friendship with the noted educator was related, interesting details of his past life enumerated in his memoir would be blessed with such a man as he. The Center was crowded, and we are pleased to state that a body of Tuskegee students assembled also to hear the memorial services over their teacher.

In the public mind a coin more than 60 years old is hoary with age and so rare as to be almost priceless, but a silver dollar of 1795 is actually worth no more than $2 to dealers, and then only if it is in an excellent state of preservation, for a great many of them were coloned. A half dollar of 1803 is worth as much as 15 cents more than its face value, but collectors and dealers find that there are so no profit in circulation that there is no profit in selling them. In fact, a person who have a hundred United States coins can do several denominations and dates no two alike, but all more than 100 years old, which would be worth to a dealer not over $10 above their face value. --- toilef Shreer Compulsory.

Referring to the comments by the editor of the Northwestern, a newspaper published at Oshkosh, Wis., relative to the book, wrote that he printed the same; Book T. Washington died on Sunday last at his home in Tuskegee, Ala. He was born a slave in 1858 and that he uprooted to the high point of his life in his hometown, a people, recognized as one of the world's great men, shows that he possessed ability to his high order. He had no chance to become a lawyer. He made good use of his advantages. His life story is an object lesson to young men, that this poor deserved little "nigger" education. He made a school for colored people with property worth $150,000, establish a reputation as a teacher which made him popular among his peers. He generally, and win as his warm personal friends such men as Andrew Carnegie, Theodore Roosevelt, Elijah Ellot, J. D. Rockefeller, and may be the most intelligent American boy look forward to a successful career? For young Washington had no money, no friends, no home in the city, short years see what he accomplished! There is a theory to the effect that no full-blooded Negro was ever known to have been colored. He so-called colored men who have made a name for themselves in history were invariable multitudes or quondroons. In other words, they were not men that made them strong. Booker T. Washington's father was an unknown white man. His case does not disprove Smallness Due to Ignorance. We lament the ignorance of some who are an everlasting disgrace to the journalistic profession. We know that there are many who call and find them in the field of journalistic labor we dare not note an exception. We note the early career of one of the world's greatest men in the common, ugly, vulgar, degraded manner as 'career of nigger but directly shows the power of the writer. The world has paid its honored tribute to one of its foremost citizens, and this mud dobber attempts to make himself the writer. The world has paid its insignificant in their meaning and reflect eternal disgrace upon the common man with a lotty mountain peak in its grandeur, speaking concerning it in terms of derision.

Nimrod and Ashur are both acknowledged ancestors of the black race, they founded two of the greatest cities in the world, Nineveh and Babylon. Billal, an African, was Mohammed's first ruler. Clitus, a black soldier in high command, saved the day at the battle of Granicus. Hannibal, Menelik, Catewary, Taussaint L'Oaverture, Dessalines, Sylla, Alexander Petton, General La Plume, General Alfred Dodds with many more great leaders we might mention, were black men. We have today Prof. Kelly Miller, Scarboigh, Dubois, D. R., J. W. E. Bowen, Major Moton, Maj-Gen. Young, W. E. B. Mason, and many more able leaders of fame, whose achievements are acknowledged in the world of great men. Color Not a Factor to Greatness. If color is a quality of value in the scheme of mechanism (any machine that can be operated by light or sunlight or energy), why is it not true that a chinled painted white is no more durable than one painted black?

DIPHTHERIA CARRIERS ARE FEWER Work Being Performed by the Department of Health to Eliminate the Spread of the Dreaded Child Disease, is Bringing Results. Press Service, Department of Health. November, 1915. Herewith are presented some figures that mean something. During the month of October the laboratory of the Department of Health made examinations of cultures from the throats of 15,234 subjects, and from the hands of 15,234 subjects of suspect carriers. 65 positive cases were found. This means that out of the 15,234 children examined 656 were found to have the germs of diphtheria. 656 were found to have the germs of other, innocent sources of danger to other children with whom they came in contact. Total diphtheria specimens examined for the month by the department library were 25,272, leaving 7,335 cases. 656 were found to have the germs of the other, innocent sources of danger to other children with whom they came in contact. Total diphtheria specimens examined for the month of the department library were 25,272, leaving 7,335 cases. 656 were found to have the germs of the other, innocent sources of danger to other children with whom they came in contact. It will be noted by a study of the figures that were found to have diphtheria and which included all examinations made from date of onset to termination. It will be noted by a study of the figures that were found to have diphtheria and which included all examinations made from date of onset to termination. To these who have not studied the problem of the control of communicable diseases, the department of the Department of Health has for actual work performed. But when the possibilities for the spread of this severe infection are given over 600 children infected with the diphtheria, the germs of the human body are most likely to work will be more readily understood. It has long been known that the diphtheria carrier is the most profitle source of the spread of the disease. The child that is known to have diphtheria, under the care of the public, is the most likely to be infected with the antiline, in no menace to the well. The child that is supposedly well and yet carries the germs of the disease in its throat is the real source of danger. Already the question of the cause of the disease is being asked for the past month. It is being shown in the gradually lessened morbidity and mortality reports. It is believed that if the department should be able to maintain a work-life-work now being carried out, the mother will be reduced to a lower ebbing than it has reached in Chicago in many years. . . . The cause and spread of consumption, as ascertained by the researches of Koch in 1882, are as follows: The disease is caused by microscopic organisms, which upon entering the living body multiply very rapidly and by irritation cause the growths known as tubercles. The presence of these morbid growths constitutes the disease called tuberculosis, which may affect not only the lungs, but other structures of the body as well. It is also well known that the disease is transmitted from man to man, from animal to man and from man to animal. Also that the transmission always takes place through the agency of the specific germs, which come from a diseased body and enter thus a new host. The most frequent means of entry or infection is by the inhalation of dust or air that are laden with the germs of the disease. This is why dust is always dangerous.

Supply your table with quantities of fruit and fresh vegetables and serve bran bread or a fruit frequently. Should you have a weakness for cheese, be careful avoid an excess of chars and sweets. Consult your-physician about any special tendency that you know your family or any member of it to possess, and guided by his advice, eliminate such foods as might be harmful. In families where there is no special indisposition or hereditary tendency to be considered let common sense guide you, read up on dietetics and keep your table free from unhealthy combinations and indigestible foods. You and this study an interesting one, but because of odds, it must be varied to be wholesome, and therefore to use spices and condiments in moderation than to let your table lack flavor from overeating in leave out everything that is not pre-eminently wholesome.

Cut pumpkin, scrape out seed and pulp, cook about a half a day in very little water. When done it is tender, dry and rich; when cool press through a sieve or colander until fine, light and free from lumps. For three piles, I use one quart of rich milk, three cupfuls of the pumpkin, nine eggs, whites and yolks beaten separately, three tablespoonfuls of melted butter, a little salt, one tablespoon each of ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg, one tablespoon of lemon juice and a wine glass of currant or apple juice. Be sure and beat all rapidly while putting the fruit juice in the cup. Bake with a very rich undercrust. Plum Pudding. Mix together one cupful of flour, one and one-half cupful of bread crumbs, one and one-half cupful of finely chopped auck, one cupful of cherry and seeds raisins, one cupful of currants, one half cupful chopped cherry oil, one half cupful half teaspoonful each of allspice, nutmeg and salt, and the grated rind of one and half cupful grape juice or any fruit juice and the juice of one lemon. Add to the flour four eggs, one cupful milk, one half cupful grape juice or any fruit juice and the juice of one lemon. Add to the flour four eggs, one cupful milk, one half cupful grape juice or any fruit juice and the juice of one lemon.

Solomon as Naturalist There is an odd reluctance upon the part of many people to go to the ant, the water-bug, the beetle and other "invertebrate" or backboneless creatures, to consider their ways and be wise. Solomon was a learned naturalist of his day and perhaps the first animal behaviorist of all time. Not alone ants and bees taught him much, but all insects, beasts of the field and birds of the air contributed to his wisdom. If Solomon were alive today, he would more than glory in the domain of experimental research in the field of the lower creatures. He would no doubt write a down-to-date volume of proverbs founded upon the learning abilities, the memory and the behavior in general of fleas, lice, flies, grats and other insects.

It was perplexed. Busy men hurried to Tuskegee from New York and Chicago, as well as from Memphis and Chicago, affairing Scheffelstein and Wilcox, and rubbed shoulders with humble men, but men who knew Dr. Washington's worth and who appreciated his worth as keenly. Touching Scenes Knowing they could not gain entrances to the chapel, the thousands followed the marcel just the same. They crowded the marcel just as the same.

Tuskegee broke down and wept.

So a Bolt Can't Slip A method of locking a nut upon a bolt in such a way that it cannot work loose is the object of a patent granted to William Johnson of Pittsfield, Mass. The bolt is the ordinary screw bolt but has a flat edge down one side Upon this a washer, made of spring steel, is placed. The straight edge of the hole in the washer fits that of the bolt, thus making it immovable. The surface of the washer is punched with round bosses. The an der surface of the nut is bored with the same number of holes as there are bosses and of equal size. When the nut is screwed down the bosses yield under pressure until the nut is driven home, when they fit into the holes. The nut cannot work loose, but can be removed easily with a wrench. Chinese "Altar of Heaven" No altar on earth lives in marble majesty with the Altar of Heaven—Tien Tian—in the south of the Chinese city of Peking, which Emperor Jungle of the Ming dynasty reared in A. D. 1420 with its triple balustrades, stairs, and platforms of pure white marble carved miraculously, its great circle covering a wide area in the midst of a vast enclosure. Standing alone, deserted under the blue Chinese sky, it is a dream of majesty and beauty. The great setting of a scene of ritual pomp that calls for thousands and thousands of robed celebrants, with music, incense, sacrifice, it is transiently imposing and impressing. There the emperor knelt once a year and worshiped "the only being in the universe he could look up to"—Shangti—the emperor of the world above, whose court was in the sky and the spear tips of whose soldiers were the stars. The Successful Wife It is becoming more or less rare to hear of an ideally happy marriage, and this state of things "gives one furiously to think," as they say in France. It may be due to the fact that, although love is easy to gain, it requires care and care on a woman's part to retain it. So many girls think that, directly the wedding ring is actually their own they need no longer trouble themselves to be as charming to their husbands as they were in courting time. The girl who wants to become a thoroughly happy wife, loving and beloved, must tax her strength and patience to attract and please her husband, regardless of the worries of everyday life, to show a smiling face and to be able to bear and forbear. These efforts must inevitably be crowned with success, and the effort is well worth while—Exchange. New Stars. Many questions have been asked in regard to the probable fate of new stars, after they have ceased to attract special attention. It has been shown that such stars which have appeared in recent years have been converted into nebulae, and later, in many cases, into extremely faint stars of apparently normal condition.

GAN'S WONDERFUL CATCH THE CAUSE. Great Piece of Felding Goes to Naught When the Handler of the Indicator Proves Nearestlost—Errors Gate Costy—Giants Shut Out. San Diego, Cal., Nov. 26—Umpire Knowlton pulled a honer and as a consequence the American Giants went down the season before the largest crowd the season here for a game. The second game of the series and Rube's cup was running over as the result of the decision. The crest of Winning just past team name belonged to P. G. Clines at all for it was Umpire Knowlton who started things in favor of the Angel City boys for the Giants lost all the pop-ups after a safe lead. Williams got to going strong and the Giants failed to come across when they had men on the sacks. The hum decision came in the fourth inning when both teams were going at top speed, and it looked as though one team had the bounce by blying out to Hugh Toller Easily; one of the Federal league's batter's batters went out Lloyd to Banneman, and the other was fast fielding by Duncan hold him at first. Then Goodman drove a long fly to left, his swing coming to the ground, and the crowd in his fear that he had broken his neck when he did an acrobatic stunt in so much pain, holding on to the ground holding up his gloved hand to the ball. GANS. Whose fielding foot caused discussion among fans, as umpire failed to see it. enscused in the palm and in this recalling position he throw to Barber at third. Barber thinking it was the third throw he gave to Barber, West, who had run for Meek as goal home after Goodman. When West, rounded first the umbrella, he gave to Barber, reached third he suddenly changed his decision and allowed the two runs to count. Knowton said after the game that he had thrown the ball. That took all the pop out of the Giants. The finish came in the seventh. Williams drove one straight at Duncan and he muffled third. Who had thrown the third? Springham and the paths were loaded. Monitor shammed one to the right field fence and Duncan recovered it, throwing to Banchero and threw to the grandstand, letting in two more runs. Four runs on two hits. Bases Loaded—No Score. Twice during the game did the Giants threaten to score. In the first lining it looked rather bad for the white boys for the bases were clogged with only one base left. But the hope of the Giants' followers by being easy out. In the ninth the Giants had two on and one gone but Jonkins and the other both fanned. The pitching of both Williams and Dismukes and the catch of Gans were the features of the game. Gino-Cline. AB. R. R.

Joe Haddock was supposed to be sending a team of stars against the Lincoln A. C. Sunday afternoon. Despite the fact that Joe had a good squirt; they were a pack of ferocious athletes, and ferocity don't win football games and the Douglass A. C. didn't win.

Frank Young over the qualities of the two teams. Young won the battle of works and the team the game. Once in Amherst, Joe and ripped the right side of the Lincoln line then Joe would have to cheer himself hoarse. It might be said in behalf of Joe, but you can't make silk out of a sow's ear. There will be many people who will say that Douglass Control never had the man and that will believe in the statement, however. Their spirit was willing but the flesh happened to be weak. The first thing the Lincoln did was to fall in line. Booker with kid gloves and he retired.

ESCORT COULDN'T SEE JOKE Incident at Coney Island That Probably Taught That Crowd That a Lesson He Needed A large well-dressed man and a handsome woman were in the Mardi Gras crowd at Coney Island, New York. They had been waiting some time for the parade and the woman began to yawn. Now yawning is a very unadylactic performance in public, and rather a dangerous one in a Coney island crowd. for while the woman had her mouth wide open and was getting all the worth there is to get her attention, young man bent on mischief throw a handful of confetti right plump into the orifice. The woman coughed and sputtered, and the hoodwink shrieked with delight. Those about him thought it was a grand joke, too—all but the woman's escort. He reached out one powerful arm and grabbed the skylark youth by the shoulder. Then he brought his flat down on the young man's straw hat, crushing it and driving his head through the crown and partly over his ears. Next he turned the young man around and kicked him with all the force and swiftness that with the force and fierce anger together with greed. If that youth recovers from that kick and throws confetti he will be kneeling in pickling his target. And, maybe, the handsome woman if she yawns again in a hurry will not do so in such a mob as turns out to see a Coney island celebration. "What do you consider the most despicable creature in the world?" he asked, by way of uncorking a little conversation. "The man who knows he can't dance, but won't admit it," she retorted, glancing at her pumps, which showed evidence of frequent contact with his oxford. Optimistic Thought. Good-natured people make the best of things. A. B. C.'S 8 CHAMPIONSHIP. From the Shoulder IN THE WORLD OF SPORT. WICKWARE IN A THREE HIT, NO RUN GAME American Giants Beat the Cline Cline Nine When Pitcher Is in Good Form—Lloyd's Fielding Spoils Two-Hit Contest. PETE HILL GETS A HOMER Slams One Over the Fence for the Circuit --Fitchner Pitches Good Ball but Giants Nick Him Seven Times—Whaling and Easterly Playing Against Rube. San Diego, Cal., Nov. 26.—American Giants, 4; Cline-Clines, 0. That is only half of the story though. The other half is the pitching of Wlekware, who held the slugging team from the city of Los Angeles to three scattered hits, one being a Texas leaguer which John Lloyd could have gotten had he hustled a little faster. This spoiled what might have been a two-hit game. Wlekware's showing was good except he was a trifle wild. What wildness he displayed was made up for by his effectiveness when men were on the paths. It was the third inning that the white hoys got their first hit. French leaned again one and sent it down third base line at Barber traveling a mile a minute. It was too hot for Jess to handle and went for a hit. After that it was not until the eighth that the second was registered. Meck slammed one for two bases. In the ninth Whaling, the catcher for the Boston Nationals, hit a Texas league which Lloyd took his time in going after and it fell safe. Wlekware had the visitors guessing the rest of the way. Pitcher pitched good ball, but the Giants hit him for seven blows. In the third the boys from Los Angeles had a chance to hang up a couple of tallies. Elliot was an easy out and then John Lloyd hosted Fitchner's easy grounder and the pitcher was safe at first. The next two walked. Easterly came up and fled out to Lloyd. Mckee hit one at Bauchman and was thrown out to McAdoo. In the fourth the Giants hung up their first score. Hill, first man up, swung off the weight onto one of Fitchner's speedy bowers and lifted the sphere over the right field for a home. This ended the scoring for this leading, however, as Duncan and McAdoo were easy outs after Lloyd had been passed, and the latter was out in an effort to purlin second. Twice in the last of the sixth the Giants got men across the rubber. With one gone, Barber was given life. When French dropped an easy pop-up fly, Hill lifted one to Elliott, but Duncan slammed the right field fence for a couple of sacks, enabling Barber to reach home. Lloyd beat out a slow roller, Duncan going to third. On a delayed steal, Duncan scampered across the pan, but Lloyd not sat-lefted, tried to grab two bags, with the result that he was nailed at third. Whaling to Goodwin, the game came in the eighth, when Fitchner walked Wickware and Hill, after one was out. Lloyd lifted a high one to center, and Wickware scored after the catch. McAdoo retired the side. Lloyd to McAdoo. Although unable to hit Wickware's offences and falling to score a run, the Johnstone up a goal game, with "Hoolocko" Johnny Willis doing the heaving today, should make a better showing.

Doctor Johnson, knowing nothing of microbes, thought he had crushed the story of the cold that strangers bring to St. Kilda by asking: "How can there be a physical effect without a physical cause?" Then he proceeded to make merry. The arrival of a ship full of strangers, he laughingly supposed, would kill the inhabitants of the island; "for if one stranger gives them one cold, two strangers must give them two colds, and so in proportion." In vain did believers in the story argue that it was proved upon the arrival of the owner's ship, which she sulted in a cold for all the islanders. "The steward," replied Johnson, "always comes to demand something from them; and so they fall a-coughing." The proper cure for a cold, which always seems to have hailed the doctors, is—cold—on the principle of homeopathy. The only sailors in the Crimean days who escaped sore throats were those who could not get muffers. The members of the Scott expedition never got a "cold" until they had left the frozen Antarctic and reached civilization. We should establish the refrigerating chamber as antiphon to the Turkish bath for cure of colds.—London Chronicle. Learning and Thought.

Await Referee Whistle Against the Delaware Rifles-Latter Team Well Coached-Lincoln in High Hopes Pittsburgh, Pa.-The Lincoln team arrived here Wednesday for their game. A complete story of the game will be in next week's issue. The Delaware have a spendid squad and if they are beaten by the Rifles, they will be as they are backing the home talent to the limit. This is the first effort of the team in Pittsburgh to bring a Big Eastern college team to the game, their team their support. Lincoln hopes are running high. Their 46 to 0 victory over the Rifles brightened them up. The playing of W. P. Young at quarter was a revolution. Smith, Clinton, Barber and Gloss starred. The Rifles roster with them. They leave Friday for berforce, where they will play Saturday. HAVANA STARS WIN. A. B. C.'s Lose to Havana Stars, 10.4. But Get Even Break in Number of Games Played—Equals McGraw's Record. Havana, Cuba, Nov. 26. — Pitching wretched ball, Johnson let the A. B. C.'s slip back into a tie with the Havana team here Sunday, Nov. 14. The boys from the United States had the lead on the Islanders, but today's defeat made a file. The New York Giants, under the leadership of the famous John McGraw, is the only club that has visited over here and broke even. The A. B. C.'s to date equal the Giants' record. The work of Johnson was fierce, he having no effectiveness whatever, and the thirteen men that compose the A. B. C. were used in efforts to stem the tide, but it was no use. Jefferies worked after Johnson's poor start, but the lead was too great. Palmero held the Hoosiers to eight hits and kept them pretty well apart. Taylor's men made a spurt in the eighth, but it fell away short. Charleston regrets the trouble he had before he left, and says that he will try to be more careful hereafter. The score: R. H. E. A.

That the ancient practice of embalming the dead is a religious rite connected with sun worship is the theory advanced by Prof. J. Elliot Smith in a study of the migrations of peoples, published in the Memoirs and Proceedings of the Manchester (England) Philosophical society, a theory that the editor of the Laucet says Professor Smith appears to have proved beyond dispute. Professor Smith has traced the practice of mummifying into the remotest corners of the earth. In a hot, dry climate, but in Egypt was easy to preserve a body, but in the words of the Laucet, "a very beautiful and never very successful business" that could have persisted only as a religious rite. It probably had its origin in Egypt and was spread throughout the world by early missionaries. Even the Rich Can Afford Flats. Even the Rich Can Afford Flats.

You see, the cloth is woven in one department—it's just like silk gloves, you know—and the gloves are cut out in another. Then they send them to another department, where they put in these little pieces you spoke of. And then all of them puts on the tips of the fingers, and some of them dresses on the back, and someone else closes them—seems they up, you know, and someone else puts the buttons on, and—and Oh, there lots more to!

WHY HOWARD DREW COULD NOT WIN Champion Sprinter in Poor Condition During the National and Far Western Games—Tendon Pulled in World's Fair Games a Few Years Ago Still Bothers Runner. By Binga Dismond. The article I am to write today is, "Why Drew did not win. As soon as I landed on the coast the first thing I attempted was to locate Drew. I was disappointed, however, for the speed wonder was working for the Southern Pacific R. R. I didn't get to see Howard until the far-western championships were pulled off a week before the nationals. He was late appearing on the scene, and the first glimpse I got of him was just as he started the century yard dash. He got away from his mark with his usual brilliance and dashed ahead of the bunch, but after the seventy-five mark was passed he faded perceptibly, and a Denver High School had closed in upon him dangerously, although he was unable to overhaul our phenom. In the furlough distance Drew grew weary at the 200-yard mark and his strong pair of legs wobbled enough to permit that same little fellow from the city of the Conventions, to beat him to the tape. Immediately after this event, I inquired of Drew, as to why he couldn't win the 220. He claimed he had not had a truck shoe on for several months, and had depended upon his ability alone to win. Natural ability is a great asset, as you may learn by reading these articles each week, but nobody knows better than myself that it takes weeks of training to cop a championship event. Drew Determined to Win. Drew worked hard the following week and appeared to be going good. There wasn't one of us who were "hero worshippers," we did not believe that he would have things his own way. The hundred-yard event was by far the most attractive bit of excitement at the National Games. Four boys of the race were entered, and three lived through the first heat (Morse, Hove and Drew) and the semi-finals. Butler fell by the wayside, and confined his endeavors to the broad jump. Hove of the University of Maine showed up nicely in the preliminaries. Roy Morse of the Salem-Cresents of Brooklyn, N. Y., came through a winner in both of his heats, and Drew seemed unwilling to exert himself and barely qualified. That didn't worry our contingent much, for we thought the champion was saving his legs. The final of the hundred was a sort of strange affair, three of our boys and three whites, Loomis, Meyers and Smith. The bunch got set in good fathlon, and when Johnle Meflugh popped the gun for the start, they left the mark as one. To our great surprise we could not see Drew in front, in a second one of the speeders slowed up and stopped; a murmur enflected the stadium, which was hard to believe, "Drew has quilt." It was a pretty hard dose for us to take and we felt pretty blue. Muscles Never Healed. The real beginning of the end of any runner commences upon the day he first pulls a tender. The tendons usually put him on the back of the upper leg. Insufficient warming up invites the pulling of muscles. A cramping occurs, the muscles knot up, and the runner is immediately stopping, the knotted muscle is actually torn. Months are required for healing, sometimes they are never entirely healed since the Olympic Games in Stockholm. The running he has been doing has been accompanied by painful hours of training have been endured by pure grit. Drew has not had the incentive to train hard in Southern California, but away with anybody out there, without training, and in spite of his sick legs, and furthermore its much nicer to sit on the ground than to trot up and down these hot enderpaths. The result was that he was out of form long before he started to work. He is not through by any means—that is, unless he wants to be. There isn't a man like business in nearer place in his class experience. Drew's favor is that he lives regularly and possesses no bad habits which could work against his condition. But, still, he has changed his decision to remain away from open competition. Athletics are a nice diversion while in school, and no real athletics are necessary interfere with his college training, but after a man has other worlds to conquer. CELEBRATE DAY OF LIBERTY Festivities of Swies Cantons to Which All Visitors of Country Are Aided August 1 is the day when the liberty of the Swiss cantons is celebrated. At Geneva one of the favorite forms of celebration is to throw colored lights on the great fountain of "jet d'eau" that rises out of the lake. Every color of the rainbow plays over the towering column of white spray, washing it in this shining rainbow dress. At night the water seems to float in the air like a many-colored banner. This jet d'eau or jet of water is acknowledged to be the highest fountain in the world. At the place where the waters of Lake Geneva narrow into a ready to flow into the River Rhone, a small breakwater has been built. Beside it, a great water main with a nozzle six inches in diameter is suspended, with the end turned in such a way as to throw the water high in the air. This is done by what is termed "gravity pressure", and the mighty current seems trying to rise as high as the great storage reservoir where it has its source, in the hills east of Geneva. Tourists and townfolk walk out on the breakwater to stand beside the fountain and wonder at its mighty roar and its great column of water. When the wind takes the top of the fountain the spray is scattered in some direction, so that a visit to the fountain in a water may mean a wetting. The water falls into the lake with a steady pattering sound. Founded Great Society M.

The phrase, "in our midst," is sound English, but it is not used much by those who have regard for the plain meaning of the words rather than for their idiomatic force. It turns up occasionally in an American newspaper or in a speech in congress, but the more fastidious shit it. It appears to be in good newspaper standing in England, however, for the Daily Telegraph has just used it on two successive days, once in the heading of a leading editorial article, namely, "Germans in Our Midst," and again in a special article, as thus: "The foreign restaurant grew up and flourished in our midst." If the editorial writer had written about Germans along us, it would have been quite intimate enough for personal comfort, while the idea of a foreign restaurant, or even a native one, growing and flourishing in "in our midst," is decidedly painful or decidedly grotesque, according as one may feel about it. The word midst means middle, and sounds all right as Shakespeare used it, "in the midst of the fight," or as the Bible uses it, "in the midst of the garden," "in the midst of the cloud," "in the midst of Jordan," and so on, or in that famous passage, "For where two or three are gathered, they are called the midst of them." Where the idea is objective or collective there is nothing unpleasant in speaking of its midst or the midst of them; but when "our midst" is said to be crammed with a hostile person, or with a growing restaurant, the normal meaning is clearly subjective and personal, and is altogether too suggestive of green apple fruit to attract such an athlete. The idiom is good, but a diagram is required with the usage in order to save one from a wholly extraordinary, not to say nonsensical, indigestion—Hartford Courant. No Iron Cross for Officer Washington, too, had his iron crosses. However, they were merely badges, known as badges of military merit.

The one thing that is sorely needed by our race is unity; we must learn to have confidence in one another; that in unity there is strength and the fraternal organizations are doing more than any other agency to bring this about. When a man or a woman is attending meetings held under their auspices, they be every night in the week, they at least are adding their mite to the uplift of the race.

THE WISE MEN of olden times had nothing on a certain class of space writers who today when the role is called answer present that carries conviction with it. Newspapers must have writers and writers must have subjects; very often live subjects are scarce, but like the brook, the newspaper must go on, the space must be filled in and a writer given a grain of truth and a vivid imagination can weave a lengthy article that at least is readable if not truthful. There is nothing that admits of so many variations for such a writer as the color question. The average reader has been surfeited with tales good and bad—mostly bad—of the race so whatever comes is taken placidly and as a matter of course. Recently in a southern daily a James Flint essayed to tell an anxious public how the race has degenerated morally, mentally and physically, since freedom. Speaking of a certain plantation he says: "Fifty years ago there were many Negro women on this property who bore from twelve to twenty-five children; today nearly all of them the descendants of those prolific mothers and grandmothers do not have more than three thin, ashy-colored children; and more than that, four-fifths of them have no children at all." Such a statement proves conclusively that no one race has a monopoly on ignorance. How a sane man could bring up such a subject without a blush of shame rising to his face for perhaps his father, grandfather and those of other southern men of his race, is more than an ordinary person could fathom. If this is degeneracy give us more of it. GETTING THE NEWS.

A CERTAIN DETECTIVE AGENCY has for its slogan "We never sleep," which evidently must have been purified from some newspaper, for if there is any business that requires a watchful eye and open ears twenty-four hours out of every day, it is the newspaper. The Defender has earned the reputation (we modestly admit justly) of either having a representative on the spot when anything happens or hearing about it immediately, that has caused it to be looked upon as the greatest race newspaper ever published. It costs money to get real, fresh, live news. It takes experience to sift out the wheat from the chaff. Our readers in all parts of the country pay for and expect the best in journalism and that we try to give. What newspaper save the Defender had an extra out Sunday morning three hours after the death of Dr. Washington announcing that fact? What newspaper outside of the Defender had original expressions from the greatest men and women exclusively written for their paper on the same subject? Where is there another newspaper so clean, bright, crisp and wholesome a newspaper that the whole family can enjoy? We appreciate to the fullest the loyal support our readers and advertisers give us and in return we aim to give them the best in modern journalism in the CHICAGO DEFENDER.

PRESIDENT WILSON may have said something regarding the death of Dr. Washington but a majority of the people are under the impression that if he did he said it inwardly or in the bosom of his family, for the press, which on every other occasion is his mouthpiece, failed to quote him on the subject.

BIRTH OF A NATION The Birth of a Nation is a wonderfully, stupendously beautiful production of the film world. It has cost the producers thousands of dollars, and it has shown the splendid work what could be accomplished by human imagination, intelligence, and inventive genius. It has brought the writer a handsome royalty, and considerable profit to the society who have produced it. The public have considered it a splendid success. The board of censorship have regarded it as moral and decent, and the city, state, and federal governments have seen nothing offensive or illegal in the show to interfere with it. It is the obvious moral of the drama. The reconstitution period of the American history shows that the one people are not fit to share in the legislative and executive functions of the American government. It granted perfect equality in political spheres, they, being novices in the world, must misuse powers and rights to the detriment of the country, meaning the white people. treason to the race people who are icon citizens. In the first place, it is not the historical facts as assumed by a Professor of history of one of the great universities in this country. Birth of a Nation states historian said: "Of course it does. Do know you can find anything your popular history? Besides, if you could you can interpret your own history." Granting the drama is history, whole humanity fails to understand it was absolutely necessary for a world to dig such histories and the people to understand the Southern mob rule and plays of race prejudices and flies on the screens? Would the boardorship permit such productions? Why not show the savage ravages committed by the United States in the Haiti. We know that the government and deaf to the outrages of the people when the victims are race The fulfillment of the political ambitions of the once-subjugated people to aspire social equality, which means to aspire social blood to the degenerated "Nigger" blood. The sociological speculators who want to elevate a nation of shaves should always look back to this disastrous historical period for scientific data before they in any similar speculation. Now, many would doubt the truth of those historical facts. Birth of a Nation would ask them to read the history of one whom the whole American nation as one unit worships today, the history of the United States, Woodrow Wilson.

Washington which appeared in the editorials of the Detroit Free Press. They follow: Is it impossible to measure the influence of T. Washington on occurred upon the Negroes of civilization during his lifetime. The ordinary standards by which we gauge the results of an educator's work do not apply in his case, for the radiating force of Tuskegee has been more connotating than that which emanates from the school generally. He made his impress upon those who passed directly through his hands, as all college teachers do, and these alone must have been a very large number, since the attendance than 1000 was more than 1000. But every one of his graduates was a missionary, sent out to disseminate the mass of the Negro people the leaven of uplifting culture instituted by the college and in this light the ultimate influence of the man upon the world becomes one of the murrays of our era. "For the advance of the Negro race in the United States, it is to be borne in mind, has been from the absolute zero of temperature, and nothing and having nothing—to all that the race is and has today. It is not to be supposed, of course, that the Negro has been freed through the long sweep of distance which Booker Washington covered in his personal unclimb. He was a spectacular exception, and his experience of the level has gone up to a marvelous extent from its starting point, and for this aggregate advance the educator now dead should be given a fine degree of credit in his individual development for his individual development. "Estimated in gross, it may that the influence of this son of a slave woman and an unknown father has been the greatest of all American forces for progress in the world, and is beyond finite minds. Only the Supreme Judge can know the answer to the question. But at least we mortals can bid respect and an acknowledgment of his to us unmeasurable value to our time. MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION OF CHICAGO SEND WORDS OF CONDOLENCE Bereaved Family Given Assurance by Church Leaders of Honored Respect. The African Methodist Episcopal Ministerial Association of Chicago and Vicinity with candor and respect to our great leader, Booker T. Washington, met in prayer and humbleness and offered their tribute to the bereaved wife and family a beautiful set of resolutions full of faith and condolence were properly endorsed and forwarded to them at Tuskegee. treason to the race people who are American citizens. In the first place, it is not based on historical facts as assumed by the author. A professor of history of one of the big giants of American history, to me in answer to my inquiry If the Birth of a Nation states historical facts, said: "Of course it does. Don't you want to learn about how people want in popular history? Besides, if you are enough you can interpret history to suit your own requirement?" Granting the drama is historical, the wizard is historical, the movie is historical, it was absolutely necessary for the film world to dig such histories and educate the people. Why not take pictures of the Southern mob rule and brutal discontent of the Southmen, then on the screens? Would the board of censorship, permit such productions. Why not show the savage, inhuman handlers of the United States in the Hallowell We know that the government is blind and deaf to the outrages of the white people when the victims are race people. We understand, the American white elites are prejudiced enough to enjoy such condescension. But we are very much disappointed that none of the imaginative brains of the race are producing better histories, better dramas, true pictures of white people for enjoyment and education of the foreign people. Let some of the race people write and produce a vivid play and the whole America of the race people organize in such a way that the play could be produced by the people who are concerned, but the whole world. If the world is needy of scientific truths, and if moving pictures must assume the great responsibility of teachers, let the most vigorous race of the world produce all humanity.

BIGELOW, Chicago. A MONUMENT FOR BOOKER T. WASHINGTON By Thomas Maxwell. It was with regret that I heard of the great loss the people of this country have to hear in the death of Dr. Booker T. Washington. In the last years of his life Dr. Booker T. Washington was going to be brought about one way, and that was through education. And to all his followers it is my hope that a great monument can be erected in his memory up his desires by education. Asking during the past 60 years, you who have made such great strides in every line of the great apostle the great fame of Booker T. Washington out of his teachings. Knowing that you may now on the last step of all your hopes and when that step is passed, you will be able to remember the day day, and that all the prejudices of color will soon be swept away, and the glorious day of race unity will appear. An quoting two prayers to his memory; O people of the Exalted Paradise, may the praise of God, His remembrance, His goodness and every good mentioning which is recorded in His Manifest Book; be upon ye. HE IS GOD O people of the graves, may the peace of the King of Manifestation and the Speaker of the Assembly be upon you. Blessed are ye who have been attained to the belief in God in the Day wherein the limbs of all the religions have taken. El Bahá'á be upon ye; upon your first and your last; upon your own and upon your outward (existence) HE IS GOD Blessed are ye, O ye captives of the earth; ye are of those who have turned the earth, and have been for the visit to the Dawning Place of the Singleness, and have endured, in the visit to that by which the abdition of the Kingdoms of those whose whom neither the power of princes withheld from the King of Names, nor the creed could prevent from their Lord, was O GOD! May it do ye good, O ye people of Bahay, ye are of those who drank the "scaled wine" in His Name, the Self-Subslent, in the Day of Wonder. HE IS GOD O, ye fragrances of the earth, and its mysteries, and O ye leaves of the tree and its fruit: Blessed are ye; we have already attained a lofty station and a high position; and O yourselves, under the shadow of the favor of the Lord. A Prayer by Abdul Baha. O Creator, we are poor; shower thy Goodness, we are needy; give us a portion of thy Wealth. We are in want; satisfy our needs. We are humble; raise us to honor. All the birds and beasts are fed from the table of thy Gifts, and all the creatures are made happy by the abundance thy Favor; deprive not this helpless soul from thy Beauty, and favor this impotent one with thy Power, in a right way, my daily living, and confer a blessing on my necessities, that I may be independent of any beside Thee. I beg we may walk in thy Path, and seek thy Face, and Declare thy Secrets; thou art the Loving, the Powerful, and thou art the Broad-Giver of the world of man. "THE TIME TO DECIDE" Once to every man and maiden Comes the moment to decide, Whether to arise and flourish, Or in poverty abide. Once to every man and maiden Fate comes knocking at the door. Once 'tis offered, once considered, Once refused, it comes no more. —By Oly. B. Lockley. IT'S AS PLAIN AS DAY! If you pay rent for 10 years at rate of $35.00 per month you will have paid your landlord $4200.00. A. B. Hygiene of the Aged. We do not hope to accomplish as much in treating of hygiene of the aged as we might in treating of the hygiene of the young, because as a rule the aged's habilies of personal hygiene are formed and maintained by old saying, "It is very hard to teach an old dog new tricks," even though the tricks be for his best good. However, we have readers past 45 years of age, or older, who are unable to prolong and increase their efficiency, also readers who are anxious to do those things that will add to their health and comfort and thus stay off the period of adolescence. We do know that, with a proper observance and a carrying out of certain hygienic laws, one can accomplish certain definite things, viz: the increase of his physical comfort of life, avoid inundation off the hand of death. The hygiene of the aged differ very much from that of the younger in that more precaution and care must be used in one's daily life. Definition of the Aged. Old age differs in different persons. Some persons are old at 25 and 35 years or age; others are young, to all intents and purposes young, to all intents and purposes. Thirt age, young or old, whose blood vessels are hardened and friable, whose heart is diseased organically and not properly functioning, whose circulatory system is weak, whose commission, is a person bordering on old age and his days of usefulness are about at an end. Old age comes on gradually, when the age becomes as a thief in the night, nor as an accessory to the back—take your life without a moment's notice. Old age always gives due notice of its oncoming and by reason of its oncoming, your health requires you can for a long time since old age. One definition for old age often given is "You are just as old as your blood vessels are old." As we previously added, your heart and blood vessels you are in a short time doomed to have disease of the kidneys, Bright's disease, disease of the kidneys and liver, diseased by disease of the heart and blood vessels. Factors in Staying Off Old Age. The main factors in staying off old age are care of the heart, care of the blood-vessels by avoiding overstrain, overfatness by avoiding ingesting of alcoholic drinks; avoiding venereal sex; especially syphilis; avoiding indulgence in eating; avoiding overindulgence in the sexual habits; avoiding undue exposure to cold, rain and winds; avoiding cervical cancer; avoiding irregular habits of life, such as catheter, smoking, resting, bathing and exercise, etc. The above suggestions are important because in the aged the batteries are run down—the energy lower than in the young and more difficult to bring up to the age of 70. Four recuperative powers' are lessened and more likely to fail you in time of need than in the young. EDITORS MAIL EDITORS MAIL Butte, Mont, Nov. 15.—Dr. R. S. Abbott, care Chicago Defender, Chicago, Ill. My Dear Sirt: I know you realize how ten years of Negroes of American regret the death of death of Chicago race and of the world (of mankind). Realizing what a race man you are and how wide a circulation your paper has, I am sure you will be able to create an annual Memorial Day for the race to observe. As he died on second Sunday in November much inspiration would be to observe that day. Memorial services to observe will be Wednesday, Nov. 17, at the African Methodological Church, when Madam C. J. Walker of Indianapolis will be one of the speakers. Our groundwork shall not be seen walking about, yet the real life of him shall forever live as a monument to his varied career. Long ago, he was a Booker T. Washington.—Respectfully, B. D. R. S. Brown, pastor A. M. E. Church. Salt Lake City, Utah, Nov. 26—Dean Mr. Editor:—Being a member of your paper and a race lover from up to ten I would like to ask the Afro-American who will have this organ, whether there will be a set of programs in the near future, to show the world, by way of memorial, that the greatest man of our race has fallen? Salt Lake City, Utah, is anxious to show its situation and the tension now existing in this, and, as I believe, in every city that has a Negro population. I think that the race should be informed as to a set time when every Negro church should be called to action. Who who who has fallen—Sincerely yours, Rev. M. R. Wilkinson, Calvary, Calvary, Church. IT SEEMS IMPOSSIBLE. San Diego, Calif., Nov. 26—Mr. Editor: I noticed in your last issue, Nov. 13, 1915, an article concerning a brute fan who was accused of testifying in the interest of their child, an 8-year-old cooped child, Mr. Editor. I especially noted the shocking fact that the parents of the babe were not allowed to admit to the interest of their child, and that they admit we as a race have many unjust deals against us all over this country. We are from the metropolis of the West, Chicago, once noted for its fair deal to all, regardless of race, color or creed, has greatly changed, the days we enjoyed the same kindness with both the teenage years ago. Is it true that Texas, NO CASES ARE DIAGNOSED AND NO PRESCRIPTIONS GIVEN IN THESE WEEKLY ARTICLES Less Food Needed. The aged require less food than the young adult, vigorous individual. The aged must exercise more care in the amount and the kind of food consumed because they are likely to suffer greater dangers from overeating, irregular eating than the young, because their digestive powers are lessened than in the young and their system does not have the same kind or same amount of certain food than they do beyond 40 years of age should by all means eating heavy, lean meats, rich meats, etc., because their digestive organs are able to properly digest these heavy, rich meats because the economy of the system does not heavy food; and third, because these heavy meats become poisonous to the system and have a poisonous, deleterious effect on the blood vessels, thus rendering it more susceptible to hardening of the arteries, apoplexy and a sudden termination of life. Bathing. While bathing is very necessary for both the young and aged, yet the method of bathing, the time of bathing and the kind of bathing, differ very radically. The agent must use cold water very carefully unless the system has been accustomed to cold bathing, and the agent must use cold bathing, for the reason that there is a great danger of shock, their recuperative powers are lessened, and the time of re-activation is longer and often entirely delayed. Clothing. The age must give special care to their clothing, as to the kind of clothing, and to the changing of their clothes. They should wear warm woolen clothes, both in moderate and in cold weather. They should avoid the changing too often from to light weights, because the heat making them are lower and less active in the age. Exercise. The aged, too, must also have periods of exercise and rest. In fact the aged need more rest and less exercise, and deep and less food than the young. By all means, the young should strenuous exercise because they have less nerve power; their arteries harder and less pliable. They should be exercised in the machine, and danning. And if dances are being in at all they must be moderate. The best outdoor exercises for the aged are golling for those who are free from heart disease, and biking is good exercise for those who are ill; but the best all-around, everyday within the-reach-of-all exercise is walkable. No Hard and Fast Rules. Each individual is a law unto himself or herself, and must study his own case, those things in eating, bathing, in exercising and in living from experience to be hurtful and harmful to him, for we know of no hard and fast absolute rules to guide the aged; in exercising and in living one that, if violated, the individual will sooner or later suffer from the violation of these fundamental principles. Alabama, Georgia and others of such states are in charge of the court of Hyde Park, and would rather license a demon to assault a child than to speak it up. The word to its heartaching parent? It is not the word to such heilish deeds belonged to the black man, believe me the black man is turning white and is doing things. Mr. Editor, a virtue of his face to properly use his vote, and when he faces the law fail to deal fair and square, and to license a gorilla to prey on virtue of young girls, just vote him or them in the court, and wants to be fair, let them secure the picture of the brute junior along with his brutish crime and pitch it on a screen, and could applaud? -Yours truly, R.
