THE GAZETTE. One Year. $1 50 Six Months. 1 00 Three Months. 50 Subscribers are requested to remit by post office money order or registered letter. Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, the second-class matter. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Case Library Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1908 1900 to 1902. CLEVELAND, OHIO, OCT. 6. 1900. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. The Afro-American, Dick Holmes, was especially helpful in protecting Gov. Roosevelt from the mob at Victor, Col. When a stalwart miner aimed his blow at the head of Col. Roosevelt, Dick Holmes got in the first lick, felled the assailant from behind and saved the governor, perhaps his life. Holmes was one of Col. Roosevelt's escorts and when the rioters were pelting and forcing the Victor Marching club upon a run, Holmes plunged, his horse into the thickest of the fight, struck the rioters such telling blows that drove them to a hasty retreat. The rioters again rallied in hot pursuit of the colonel, when Holmes rushed upon the governor's assailants, felling his man at every blow and causing them to scamper away. A rock was thrown, striking Holmes in the mouth, but he reached his man in good time, knocking out the front teeth of one of his assailants, thus bringing the crowd for a moment to a stand. The black man was a conspicuous figure and showed a courage which challenged the admiration of all on-lookers. The part that the brave man played was only significant of the act on San Juan Hill, when Negro troops hurried to the rescue of the Rough Riders in the moment of extreme peril. Such men Roosevelt should not have attempted to discredit as he has done in his "History of the Rough Riders." THE PEOPLE'S SHAME. Of course, there has been quite a flutter by the southern press because of the proposed visit of Miss Lillian Jewett of the south. But nobody could hardly believe that anything more than a flutter was likely to occur. Men lose their reason sometimes and yet no one is harmed. In most parts of this broad land to-day, people may travel and express their opinion without molestation, and though men of extreme opposite views growled and beat their breasts even that was not regarded with great seriousness. However, Miss Jewett did go south, she did enter upon the duties of her mission, she did assume to exercise the right which was her privilege, and that was to plead a righteous cause in the interest of justice and poor bleeding humanity. The picture became sad and darkened as she spoke for law and order and the wronged of our country. The wicked quailed in the presence of this reproving angel of mercy; for deep down in her own heart of hearts, she felt the touch of bruised and mangled beings and murdered victims writhing in the woes and last agonies of death. Called as if from the very tomb, she submits their cause to those who might feel for the lowly and the downcast. In Richmond, Va., she talked to the citizens, making overtures and asking relief for those who so much suffered and endured persecution. She met the people of the south as a kind and loving sister and she sought to awaken and dissuade them from the error of a vengeful and remorseful, cruel nature. But Miss Jewett did not find that warm and generous reception one might hope for and which she deserved. She spoke to mixed audiences and was very effective in producing a most lively impression. Nothing daunted, she pressed boldly forward in the discharge of the duty commissioned to her trust. Lol! and behold! It is found out that all the fools are not dead yet. Evil minded people, controlled by that unconquerable hatred against Afro-Americans and angered because Miss Jewett had espoused their cause, hung the Boston agitator in effigy in Monroe park, Richmond, Va. Shameful as the act is, Miss Jewett will little regard the attempt to degrade her, mindful as she will be that the world's greatest heroes have always suffered to win a cause. We stand in the midst of a glorious epoch, humanity demands a sacrifice, and he who holds his peace now or shrinks from duty in a trying hour cannot hope to enjoy the reward of a blessed immortality. Only the faithful in life, only those like Miss Jewett, can find this imperishable jewel. A MURDEROUS ASSAULT. Prof. S. W. C. Payne, assistant principal of the colored school of Paris, Tenn., was waylaid and brutally assaulted by a white ruffian of the same city. To accomplish his design the brutal man crept stealthily up behind his victim and with knife held to the throat of Mr. Payne, he mercilessly plied his brass knuckles upon the head and face of the professor. Mr. Payne had refused to deal with Whitworth, his assailant, and hence the assault. White citizens of Paris, who knew Mr. Payne as a peaceable and orderly citizen, interested themselves in this cowardly affair, and judging from the outlook of things, a feeling of indignation has been awakened. Whitworth, who has been in the habit of making murderous attacks upon colored people, sought in this case, to bring about a compromise. This he now hopes to effect by paying fees and the costs of the court. But despite a compromise, the case will find its way before the grand jury upon the charge of using brass knuckles. Prof. Payne declined more than a year ago, having dealings with a man who had so wantonly made murderous assaults upon colored people. Angered and chagrined, he chose Prof. Payne as the object of his revenge. Pity that a man like Whitworth is at all tolerated in the well ordered and quiet little city of Paris; yet in most southern cities this fool-hardiness still goes on. In Arkansas, near the town of Marion, a white man was superintending the work on the levee. He had in his employ several hundred colored men. His treatment to his hands was most brutal indeed. Morn in and morn out, he bruised and bled his men as in the ante-bellum times. Men were maimed and killed and little done about it. The same old plea, "shot in self defence," was seconded upon the magistrate's book. It is a sad picture to find inoffensive black men, seeking labor, caught in this net of slavery; for once in the service of the levee bosses, escape is hardly possible. There was one of these hirelings, who being beaten, cursed and cuffed about, became desperate. He protested against his abuse, he protested against blows and the scourges of his cruel taskmaster, but all to no purpose. Goaded to desperation, weakened and bleeding from wounds inflicted with impunity, he pounced upon his assailant now seeking his life, seized the pistol and shot dead his vengeful persecutor. Dread and consternation were everywhere felt and blood-hounds were put on the trail of the poor colored man now fleeing to save his own life from the blood-thirsty mob. But the hounds, too were made to die and still the fugitive flees. MR. TURNER AND THE COUNCIL When Delegate J. Milton Turner, at the Indianapolis convention of the national Afro-American council protested against political questions or political discussions being foisted upon the convention, he took a stand that was at once in keeping with the duties and the best wisdom of that body. We did not understand that men appeared there as the champions of any party, but to consider purely those interests promotive of the intellectual, moral, and social condition of the race. Along this line the Hon. J. M. Turner has shown himself a faithful and consistent advocate of whatever claims are warranted us by nature and the laws. We did not understand that the Afro-American council was called in the interest of politics and it was ill-timed that any partisan spirit should characterize the action of that body. It was right that Mr. Turner should be heard and received in full fellowship with the friends battling for equal rights and protection to the race. Black men, when meeting in council, will find it important to concern themselves first and always in regard to those issues which are vital and bear directly upon the immediate welfare of the race. Our well-being in the social, moral and business affairs of the country is the primary issue and should be persistently agitated along the lines of our growth and rise of a people. The time is at hand, both in and out of convention, that our rise and progress should be brought into all our deliberations, to enable the present generation to stand abreast of those opportunities which are to be our bulwark and security. We magnify the achievements and triumphs of other races, while we too little appreciate our own opportunities and privileges. We aggrandize the labors and success of the very means which we might so well utilize and appropriate, to our own growing powers, thus rendering ourselves an element; but we seem at sea, because we so often overlook the main object of our endeavor. Conventions of to-day, gentlemen, are not to be called for political buncombe, but for earnest, solid work dedicated to the task of putting the colored people in line with the best element of the nation. LOYALTY TO PARTY PRINCIPLES We do not believe in assailing the republican party because a few colored politicians are disposed to defend party policy, right or wrong. We believe in the maintenance of those fundamental principles of justice, as contained in the party platform, and we will surrender not one jot or tittle of these, though the leaders may, through greed or mercenary motives, seek to prevent or compromise them. We are for the great cardinal measures as instituted in the formation of the great republican party of freedom and justice to all men, and aside from these measures, we find no political party under this government with which we may consistently and in honor affiliate. No party which wickedly discriminates against the political equality of a race or American citizens, is worthy the support or affiliation of good citizens. But we are not in accord with John P. Green in his defense of the present administration, nor with Mr. D. W. Clark in his assault on the republican party per se. The administration and the president have been sadly derelict in regard to matters of vital concern to the voters and rights of a true and equal citizenship, but it still remains with ourselves, as a people, to determine our duty and line of action in the present political emergency. Regardless of any party, we cannot compromise with wrong and we dare not assume the attitude of mere temporizers. Unlike Mr. Green, we cannot condone the evils and mistakes of the present republican administration, though the race shares in a small measure its favor and its patronage, and unlike Mr. Clark, we would not rashly ignore our obligation and duty to a party whose principles and doctrines remain unchallenged and unsurpassed by any THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 6. 1900. other party in America. The republican party approximates nearer to that as the party of equal human rights, and recognizing this fact, we cannot abandon it, until other organizations shall champion our cause and prove their fidelity to the great principles of liberty and justice to all men. The demagogue may play the part of a servile patron and offer a thousand apologies for the unscrupulous leaders of his own party, but that is no reason why we should rend our own organization and betray it into the hands of those who have no concern for our rights and protection as citizens of a common government. Let us prove ourselves as loyal to the principles of good government and ever ready and consistent to maintain the faith within us. Women can now vote in New Zealand and South Australia. They will probably be allowed to do so at the next elections in West Australia and Queensland, and have been promised the franchise in New South Wales. In Victoria the government is opposed, but gradually weakening. The new electric motors for the steepest portions of the Jungfrau Mountain railway will be the most powerful electric rack-wheel locomotives ever constructed. The two motors will each have 125 horse-power, and will make 800 revolutions per minute driving the toothed wheels. The school superintendents of old New York city recommend the abolition of vertical penmanship in the schools, claiming that it make slow penmen. This style has been very popular with grade teachers for several years, but most professional teachers of penmanship have favored the slanting style. In New York state 910 persons were killed and about 40,000 wounded in the factories last year. In the war with Spain 208 Americans were killed and 1,557 wounded. Based on these figures, the total killed and wounded annually in the industrial pursuits in the United States would be 20,000 killed and 900,000 wounded. Chinese labor unions exist not only in New York, Chicago and other large cities, but also throughout the Pacific states, and are especially strong in California. The unions are composed of cigarmakers, shoe manufacturers, clothing makers and laundrymen. Most of the jeans coats and trousers worn west of the Rockies are made by Chinese. There are not many people aware of the fact that for the last 27 years a war has been going on between the Dutch and the people of Acheen, in North Sumatra. Since 1873 up to the present time this war has cost the Netherlands something like $100,000,-000, and over 100,000 lives have been lost on the two sides. After all these years of fighting the end of this punitive war is no nearer than when it first commenced. In New York storage battery electric cars are being put in operation on the Thirty-fourth street cross-town line as fast as their various parts can be assembled at the Metropolitan Co.'s shops. There are between 35 and 40 in all, and the same number of horse cars will be taken from the service when these are all ready. Twenty-eight compressed-air cars of a new pattern are also being made ready for use on the Twenty-eighth and Twenty-ninth street line. The tea used in the immediate household of the emperor of China is treated with the utmost care. It is raised in a garden surrounded by a wall, so that neither man nor beast can get anywhere near the plants. At the time of the harvest those collecting these leaves must abstain from eating fish, that their breath may not spoil the aroma of the tea. They must bathe three times a day, and, in addition, must wear gloves. Eleven queens use tobacco. The dowager empress of Russia, Queen Olga of Greece, Queen Olga of Wurtemburg, the queen regent of Spain, Queen Amelia of Portugal, Queen Marguerite of Italy, Carmen Sylva, the Roumanian queen, Queen Natalie of Servia and the queen of Egypt. The late empress of Austria used to smoke 30 cigarettes a day. The queen of Italy is said to have declared that her cigarette is more essential to her comfort than anything else in life; she always smoke in solitude. Hsianfu, or Siganfu, the ancient capital of China, to which the empress dowager is said to have fled, is one of the most important cities of the Middle kingdom. More than 3,000 years ago, or about the time of Solomon, this ancient city, under the name of "Perpetual Peace," was the capital city of one of the feudal princes of the Chou dynasty, and from that time to this, under various fortunes, it has been either the first or the second city of the empire. It is situated more than six hundred miles southwest of Peking. Indigo is cultivated all over India, giving employment to millions of natives and thousands of foreigners. In three districts alone, in Behar, where some of the finest indigo is grown, European capital is invested to the extent of no less than $25,000,000. Some 370,000 acres are under cultivation. There are 700 Englishmen managing and working on the "concerns," and 1,500,000 natives. An indigo concern may occupy anywhere between 1,000 and 10,000 acres, each cultivated acre producing, on an average, about 15 pounds to 20 pounds. The polygamous wives whom the United States government compelled the Kiowa Indian men to discard a month ago are disconsolate. Among the 600 brown-skinned women who are thus left husbandless, there have been some pathetic scenes enacted in connection with the enforcement of this law. Two of the discarded wives of Chief Narjo committed suicide. Six squaws belonging to Tall Elk, a warrior, killed themselves because they had to leave their lord's tepee. Curiously enough these abandoned wives are the youngest. FIRST IMPERIALIST. Thomas Jefferson, Founder of the Democratic Party, Was the Earliest One. Democratic Law, Passed in 1804. When Jefferson Was President. Recognized Colonies. Made Three Divisions of United States Area----States, Territories and Subject Countries. That Law Stands To-day, Never Having Been Repealed-Read Its Language, and Learn the Facts in the Matter. Thomas Jefferson, whom the democrats of to-day claim as their political father, was elected president in 1800, just a century ago. During the Eighth Congress, which covered the last two years of his first term, the democrats had a heavy majority in both branches. The executive and the legislative divisions of the government were in absolute accord. Jefferson was master and congress was his servant. That congress passed a law, which was approved by President Jefferson on March 27, 1804, which provided for the authentication of local acts, or of public records introduced as evidence in the federal and all other courts within the United States. This act has remained in force ever since. Its second section provided as follows: "All the provisions of this act, and of the act to which it is supplement, shall apply as well to the public acts, records, office books, judicial proceedings, courts, and offices of the respective TERRITORIES of the United States, and COUNTRIES SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES, as to the public acts, records, office books, judicial proceedings, courts and officers of the several STATES." Note carefully the language of this section. You will see that it specifically divides all the area under the sovereignty of the United States into three classes, which are as follows: 1. States of the Union 2. Territories of the United States. 3. Countries subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Remember now, that this was under Thomas Jefferson, the father of the democratic party, that the congress was democratic, and that this congress passed a law, which Thomas Jefferson signed, which was a distinct recognition of what Mr. Bryan to-day calls "Imperialism." It designated the successive grades of United States territory, from the subject country up to the state in full membership. It created a framework and gave it the sanction of law, for a system of outlying possessions, colonies, provinces, or whatever else you may see fit to call them. Furthermore, this democratic Jeffersonian law of 1804 is still the law of the land; it has never been repealed. In the revision of the United States statutes in 1873, by the Forty-third Congress, the laws from the beginning of the government to that time were codified. If any one will turn to page 171 of the Revised Statutes of the United States, 1st volume, he will find the following two sections, which are simply revisions of the act above mentioned: "Section 905. The acts of the legislature of any state or territory, OR ANY COUNTRY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES, shall be authenticated by having the seals of such STATE, TERRITORY or COUNTRY affixed thereto. The records and judicial proceedings of the courts of any STATE, or TERRITORY, or of any such COUNTRY, shall be proved or admitted in any other court within the United States, by the attestation of the clerks." etc. "Section 906. All records and exemplifications of books, which may be kept in any public office of any STATE, or TERRITORY, or of any COUNTRY SUBJECT TO THE JURISDICTION OF THE UNITED STATES, not appertaining to a court, shall be proved or admitted in any court or office in any other STATE, or TERRITORY, or in any such COUNTRY, by the attestation of the keeper of said records or books * * * or of the governor, or secretary of state, the chancellor or keeper of the great seal, of the STATE or TERRITORY, or COUNTRY" etc. So we have here, by the enactment of a democratic congress, with the assent of the democratic president, whom all latter-day democrats revere, a classification of the area under the sovereignty of the United States into three separate and distinct classes: 1st, state; 2nd, the territory; 3rd, a country subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. If the retention of the Philippines as a dependency, or colony, or province of the United States, be "Imperialism," then Thomas Jefferson was the father of "Imperialism," and the democratic party of 1804 its mother. This matter has already been called to the attention of Mr. Bryan. Like the governing of the Negroes of the Southern States, "without the consent of the governed," Mr. Bryan is discreetly silent on the point. He is a demagogic humbug; his cry of "Imperialism" is simply a lure to catch votes. In the past three years 95 Kansas counties decreased their bonded indebtedness,while only ten made an increase,-the net reduction being near $3,000,000. Private debts have also been diminishing in Kansas-Marion county alone showing a net decrease in mortgage debt for last year of $278,403. Only five foreclosure suits have been filed in the county thus far this year, and only 66 during McKinley's term as against 229 during Cleveland's term. This proportion would show a net reduction of personal mortgage debt in Kansas near to $30,000,000 in McKinley times. No wonder that Kansas democrats and populists are returning to the republican fold in great numbers. Insurrection is Maintained Now in the Hope That Bryan Will Be Elected President. Testimony of Ohio Soldiers Now Serving in the Islands Proves This to Be True. Our Volunteers and Regulars Hoping for McKinley's Triumphant Re-Election. So That the War May Be Speedily Ended. To the vast and constantly accumulating mass of evidence from our soldiers themselves, showing clearly the substantial support given to the Filipinos in their fight against the authority of the United States, is added very significant testimony from First Lieut. Harry Allen Ely, of Co. G, 46th U. S. V., declaring that "the continuance of the insurrection in the Philippines is due almost wholly to the advice the Tagal leaders are receiving from the United States. "It was the most treasonable literature I have read. Many of these letters were in the handwriting of the senders and signed by them. They contained the statements that it was the opinion of the majority of the citizens of the United States that the government was wrong in its policy of holding the Philippines. The insurrectos were urged in very strong language to continue their warfare even under the most disadvantageous circumstances until after the election in November, when there surely would be a change of administration." Undoubtedly, in every county, indeed in almost every town of Ohio, letters have come from our own soldiers, duplicating these statements, from the personal knowledge of our brave volunteers known in our own communities. For instance, the Henry County Signal has several such letters. W. A. Brubaker, of Co. E., U. S. Signal Corps, writing from Lipa, Island of Luzon, says: "There is no doubt but that every thing would have been quiet a long while ago if it had not been for the encouragement the natives receive from the citizens of the United States. I am in a place to know this, and have heard some of the best educated natives say that this war would not last longer than the fall election, as then their friend Bryan will free them. It is disgusting to think that a people who are firing on our flag and in an insurrection against our country, should have on their tongue the name of a supposed leading statesman to help and encourage them." Lieut. Bert Mitchell, also writing to the Napoleon Signal, from headquarters, Fourth District, department of Northern Luzon, at San Isidore, says: "I surely hope Ohio will roll up one of her old time republican majorities and back up the administration in its attempt to restore law and order in its eastern possessions. If Bryan is defeated it will do more towards ending this war than you possibly imagine." Can all of the American people be fooled all the time by men who alone have sent such stuff to the armed enemies of our country? Is it possible to presume that our voters can be deluded into any kind of aid at the polls to the only party that hopes to profit by its participation in this treasonable conduct? Is it not true, as Senator Beveridge says, that "blood will continue to flow until American sympathy with the insurrection is repudiated by the American people." What Bradstreet Says. Bradstreet undoubtedly beats Bryan when it comes to business facts, for the commercial agency has no political ax to grind, and is not running a campaign. Whereas Bryan pretends that he can't see any of the existing prosperity, Bradstreet's, in every issue, is compelled to record an incessant stream of facts proving its existence. A very significant pointer is that Bradstreet's figures for railroads operating more than 100,000 miles of lines, which is considerably over half the country's total, show a gain of about 7 per cent. in the gross earnings in August, 1900, as compared with the same week in 1899. This is a very high increase, especially as the earnings for that month last year were unusually large. Since both the German and the English papers have been growling about the United States policy in China, because it looks to American interests and the peace of the world and fair play for all, both the democratic sneers over the so-called intimacy between Kaiser Wilhelm and President McKinley in common civilities, and the democratic false cry of Anglo-American alliance, have suddenly subsided. "Were they afraid it would pass?" was the pointed question asked of the democratic party by a New York commercial traveler the other day, as his answer to their pretended concern over the absence of sufficient Federal legislation to restrict trusts. His query followed another one wondering why the democrat did not offer some measure in congress to meet the case, no matter whether they were in a minority or a majority. The latest thing in American military uniforms is probably that adopted by the Tutuila national guards. The guards is a regularly organized military company of the United States, and is, armed with Lee rifles. The uniform consists of white singlets, blue lavalavas, with red facings, red sashes, red turbans and the usual cartridge box accountrements. The lavalava is a short skirt made of cotton cloth. The singlet is a sort of doublet or waistcoat. DOINGS OF THE RACE. One more first prize will again give Major Taylor the professional championship. He will compete in the championship race at the Montreal grand circuit meeting Saturday. Two thousand two hundred and fourteen Afro-Americans, including 235 women, have taken degrees from institutions of every sort. All have been self-supporting, and letters from half of them report an average assessed valuation of real estate of $2,500. The awards at the Paris Exposition in connection with the Afro-American exhibits are as follows: Group xvi, Afro-American exhibit, department of social economy, T. J. Calloway, grand prize; group i, Hampton Industrial institute, grand prize; gold medals, Tuskegee institute, Tuskegee, Ala., Howard university, Washington, D. C.; silver medals, Fisk 'university, University of Atlanta, Agricultural college and Mechanics' institute, Berea college; bronze medals, Industrial school, Pine Bluff, Ark, Roger Williams university, Central Tennessee college; honorable mention, Haines Industrial institute, Claflin university. Editor Harry C. Smith, of The Cleveland, O., Gazette, advises Negro newspaper men to refuse to publish campaign literature and send out supplements for the republicans unless they receive proper remuneration for so doing. He deserves credit for such suggestions, even if his confreres do not act upon his wise and sound advice. The national committee pays shrewd campaign writers like John E. Bruce and others nice round sums of money to write campaign literature, and why can't they pay Negro editors reasonable sums for sending it broadcast over the country? The Press is a disinterested party, but granting such to be the case, it sees the wisdom of Harry Smith's idea, and hopes the Negro press will do likewise.—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press.

Gives the names of dead and living friends, tells who and when you will marry, also of business, journeys, lawsuits, absent friends, health or anything you wish to know, no matter what it is. He can call up your spirit friends and show them to you. Can make them rap all around the room. He asks no questions; don't ask you to write the names for him. Don't try to pump you in any way, but tells you right off. He thoroughly knows where; received from them a gold medal and special license to practice his wonderful powers; credentials no one else can show; can give thousands of references to both white and colored patrons. Twenty-five years practice—seven in Brooklyn—will show you that he can do all he tells of. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all your doings, in short what is best to do. He succeeds when all you need. For Paula he helps and does no pay. Call and see. You will find it lucky to consult this refined Christian gentleman. He has a medicine that will cure drunkenness; can be given patients not knowing it. Thousands through him are now Rich. Happy and Successful Rich, Happy and Successful in all their undertakings, while those who neglect his advice are still laboring against poverty and adversity. Through his perfect knowledge of chemistry he can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. His aid and advice have often been solicited: the result has always been the securing of speedy and happy marriage and your wishes. In love affairs he never fails. He has the power of winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is the curse of Spiritualism that in all large cities there are a class of men and women who claim powers they do not possess. They have neither gifts, credentials nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away for the sake of the Miller, capitalist, 2481 Atlantic avenue; the Hon. Wm. Denmore, architect and builder. 41 Cleveland av. and Arthur Sewell, ship builder. South Brooklyn. All have known him for the past seven years. He gives a free test of his power to all. The Doctor has practiced five years in New Orleans, St. Louis, Memphis, and Louisville; understands the diseases, spell or influences the race is subject to.

Whiteman & Co., bookbinders. The loss is $300,000, of which $250,000 falls on Dayton & Co. The property was only partly insured Several firemen were hurt by the falling of a portion of the building. Among them were: John Condon, seriously injured; Randall Allison, seriously injured; Powell Breon, ankle sprained; Joseph H. Hill, bad scalp wounds; Henry E. Page, arm badly injured.

Love and Marriage a specialty. Every mystery revealed, also, of absent, deceased and living friends, removes deceased and estrament events, separates and causes speedy marriages. $1,000 challenge to any medium who can exceed her in her startling revelations of the past, present and future events of one's life. Remember, she will not for any price flatter you; you may rest assured you will gain facts without assistance. You can be consulted affairs of Life. Love and Marriage, Friends, etc. with description of future companion. She is very accurate in describing missing friends, enemies, etc. Her advice upon sickness, change in business, journeys, lawsuits, contested wives, divorce and speculation is valuable and reliable. She reads your MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, is a seventh daughter, tells your entire life—past present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has the power of any two clairvoyants you ever met. She tells whether your present sweet-heart will be true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husband and children; young ladies should everything about their marriage intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all; do not let silly religious scruples prevent your consulting. Macaue is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people tell you that they look older than what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may-be, have such a hard time to get along, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they started. This is because they have not consulted the right person, and no matter how much probabilities, have been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells that she has spent year helping distressed persons and that she sands to success. For advice by letter $1.00.

"You see, it was this way: ‘asked him one day to promise me that he never again would smoke cigarettes, and he promised. ‘Then I asked him to refrain from the use of tobacco in any form, and he prom- ised to do that. Later I told him I hada horror of anyone who touched liquor, and he agreed never to touch it. After that I sug. gested that I thought clubs had a bad influ- ence on young men and I should expect him to give them up, and he said he would. 1 also took up the subject of gambling, and made him promise that he would stop play- ing cards and betting on the races.” “Well, you didn’t demand a great deal of him, did you?” said the girl in gray. “I Auppore he deceived you in the matter?” fe did.” é “Broke his promise, did he?” “Oh, no!_I could have forgiven that, But post when I was congratulating myself that at least had reformed one young man | found that he didn't require any reforming He wamn’t addicted to a single one of the habits I made him Promise to break.

The Pretty Hats That Are Seen in New York Fall and Winter Millinery Fashions Are Unusually Attractive This Year CHARMING HEADWEAR FOR LATE FALL AND WINTER ALL and winter millinery styles, FF while in many respects much like those of some seasons that have passed recently, are yet sufficiently new and novel to meet the require- ment of those looking for the ex- elusive, and there is more that can be said in favor of them than against them. There is one feature of the new hats that makes them unusually at- tractive; that is they lend themselves so easily to the requirements of the individual. It is really astonishing how easily a clever milliner will change the aspect of a hat by a lit- tle rearrangement of the trimming, or a bend in the brim, or a dent in the crown, so that it alters its entire ap- pearance and makes it easily just the thing one wants, while. in the shape in which it was first seen there was absolutely no possibility of its being suitable. In the late hat velvet takes the lead in covering shapes, and for trim- mings, but there are also silks, furs, malines, laces and mousseline de soies. asia ZA EY ~~ — AP” pa LIB Sree (i cP FD hae oo. Sie ‘THREE CHARMING FALL AND WINTER MODELS. Flowers of the large order in many eases cover the entire crown. Of these the popular ones are roses, poppies and chrysanthemums with or without their foliage. On some of the hats one sees numerous small or large buckles caught in with the Alsatian or butterfly bow. There is also a de- mand for fancy quills and ostrich feathers from all classes, and they are found on hats of all prices the difference being merely in the price of the quill or feather. In shapes the toques easily lead, though the picture hat, the mush- reom sl.ape, colonial shapes, and Louis XVI. styles are seen in numerous va- Fieties. Still another feature of the fall and winter hats is the extravagant use of plumes, especially suitable this year because of the width of the majority of the hats. ag oy THE PICTURE HATS ARE UNUSUALLY CHARMING 414 tail and winter picture hats | are unusually charming.

One of the Virot models, of which several are to be seen, is of pale blue felt with garniture consisting of bands of pinked felt. It has a turned- up brim trimmed with a bow of black velvet and faney feathers. A hat on the Louis XVI. order is of wood colored velvet finely stitched with silk of the same shade. A tor- sade of wood colored velvet is fin- ished with a bow of wide gold braid. ae SOME OF THE PRETTY TOQUES THAT ARE SEEN RETTY toques are probably the P most charming and popular hats of the fall and winter season. There is a variety among them that has never been known before, and many of the hats on the toque order ‘can be called such only because the milliners, Who are supposed to know, say they are such. ‘A stylish toque is of gray blue vel- vet. Of this the crown is built quite igh of large pink roses, having a very little green foliage mingled in. Below this is an applique of real point lace. One large rose rests on the hair at the left side. A smaller toque that has a coquet- tish appearance is of gray velvet and trimmings of black velvet. At the left side are fancy quills shading the green to black, with a steel buckle as a cen- ter to a large black velvet bow, and another steel buckle on the bandeau next to the face. One of the toques that have such broad effects is made up in the styl- ish black and white combination, This hat is made of folds of black velvet rolling very high in front and at the side, with a jet trimming covering the edge. A black and white tip comes from the erown and droops over the face. A toque that catches the fancy of many is of black velvet, with a pretty trimming of pink pigeon’s wings and velvet bows om each side. Of all the velvet toques to me none are prettier than an imported Paris model of shirred castor velvet with suiken crown, and brim encircled with chenélle and spangled insertion. ‘Two spangled wings caught with a large rhinestone ornament and a knot of velvet complete the trimming. A toque of eastor velvet and satin of the sameshade is a pretty one. The form is laid in small folds, and it has a garniture of pale blue and beige brids in front. An attractive toque is one with the frame covered with “ophelia” velvet veiled with coarse black chenille lace. A bird's head and plumage is posed over the folds, SARAH DAVIDSON. Swallow Arrows. One of the most puzzling feats per- formed by the Navajo Indians during their great fire dances is the swallow- ‘mg of the great plumed arrows. Dur- ing the ceremony ten of the savages come before the sick chief, who is to healed by the fire dance, and thrust long barbed ‘arrows down their throats without apparent harm.

WOMAN'S KIDNEY TROUBLES Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Com- pound is Especially Successful in Curing this Fatal Woman’s Disease. F ¥ | wey S ™ 7 a a 4 coal sha Freee Qe Of all the diseases known with which the female organism is afflicted, kidney disease is the most fatal. In fact, unless early and correct treatment is ap- plied, the weary patient seldom survives. Being fully aware of this, Mrs. Pinkham, early in her career, gave ex- haustive study to the subject, and in producing her great remedy for woman's ills — Lydia £. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound -—was careful to see that it contained the correct combination of herbs which was sure to control that fatal disease, woman's kidney troubles. The Vegetable Compound acts in har- mony with the laws that govern the entire female system, and while there are many so called remedies for kidney troubles, Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege- table Compound is the only one especially prepared for women. The following letters will show how marvellously successful it is: REWARD. —We have deposited with the National City Bank of Lynn, $5000, ‘which will be paid to any person whoean find that the above testimonial letters are not genuine, or were published before obtaining the writer's special por mission. ‘LYDIA E.
