The Gazette

2 THE GAZETTE. 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. CONGRESS MUST ACT NOW OR THE CONSTITUTION IS WRECKED. There is no middle ground for congress to take upon the suffrage question. At the time of the formation of our federal constitution, Virginia favored allowing the larger states greater privileges, but Rhode Island and Connecticut contended for equal privileges to all. The sentiment of justice prevailed then, it should prevail now. Four states stand as defendants in having violated the obligation taken by Washington, Franklin, Hamilton and Madison in maintaining the mutual pledge that just and equal privileges should be accorded each and every state. Despite the opinion among public men that the president is opposed to any movement looking to a reduction of the congressional representation of the southern states on account of the charges of this disfranchisement of Afro-Americans, the Senate committee on privileges and elections propose the proposition to appropriate $25,000 to enable the attorney general of the United States to bring before the Supreme court of the United States the constitutions of the four defendant states that have abridged the franchise of Afro-Americans. The fight will then be on and it remains again to be seen what hand President McKinley will play in the matter. To contest the constitutions of those four states is now a matter in line with the action of the senate, and it would be in very bad taste for the president to undertake to forestall the action of the two bodies. It would be a matter of mad and daring presumption for any power to attempt for a moment to challenge or forestall a movement designed solely to vindicate the claims of justice to the people and to the very states to which the fathers declared their unvarying adherence. The president is opposed to reviving ill feeling between the sections, but that ill feeling exists now as absolutely as when South Carolina nullified the highest constitutional authority of the nation. And the only way to prevent the growing feeling of discord is for congress to remove the cause producing the evil. The president may have been assured that an important element of southern business men, manufacturers and others are in earnest sympathy with the republicans and that the nucleus of a future revolution is forming against existing political methods. But such assurances should have no part in comprising the righteousness of the Afro-American's liberty. Liberty is as sacred to one citizen as to another and as sacred to the cause of the republican now as it ever shall be. Party leaders should be warned that every backward tendency to protect the ballot is an abridgement of the rights of suffrage to every American. President McKinley should be warned that the path of duty is without variability or shadow of turning and admits of no vain and empty expediency of saving a limb while the body perishes. Nor is the president called to his high and august position to take chances in the midst of a terrible emergency. The president may as well understand at once that the south is at war against the republican party, that the republican party never has done anything acceptable to the south and nothing it can do will be acceptable. It is not the policy of the south to make this acknowledgment to the dominant party. Every evidence of the above statement has already been demonstrated, and regardless of whatever programme has been arranged, the south is committed to its own purposes and plans and will lose no opportunity to enforce them against all odds. It becomes then the duty of the president, if he means to serve as the executive of the nation, to guard the interests of the whole people and to enforce the laws as he understands them. There is no other alternative. Congress must act. The president must act, and upon terms of fair and equal justice to each and every citizen, be he black or be he white. Called to brook every issue, they must meet it fearlessly and without equivocation, or our constitution will be hopelessly wrecked. Governments cannot exist where the vital principle has been ignored. The slightest antagonism blocks the whole machinery of our political fabric and sooner or later our entire system must fail. Each state owes allegiance, each owes co-operation and without which we become as a rope of sand. TO PROTECT THE BALLOT. Senator McComas of Maryland, enters a note of warning to the country in reference to the methods of election in the states of Louisiana, Mississippi, North and South Carolina. As a member of the committee on elections he seems to voice the sentiment of the senate against disfranchisement. He declares that at the proper time he will object to the credentials of Simmons on the THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16. 1901. ground that there has been no election in North Carolina, or rather that the election in that state through which Senator Simmons will claim his seat, was in violation of the constitution. The danger is now apparent that other states will imitate the practice now in vogue in the above mentioned states, and as the opinion now obtains that the senate intends making North Carolina a test case and thus expose the villainy of crime so daring and defiant, it is hoped that the republican senators will make thorough and complete the task which they have assumed. Better for the country had this practice been at once rebuked in the beginning than allow it to gather strength and audacity. Better for the cause of free government that the first act in violation of the constitution had never been tolerated up to this time. But the crisis has come and it remains only for the present congress to put a stop to this flagrant violation of law and dispense justice in the light of duty. The election laws which have suppressed the greater part of the colored vote in the south make it necessary that something be done in that reapportionment shall be made upon the terms of the fullest justice to all sections of the country. There is no room for parleying upon a matter of such vital concern to the whole country. The crime has been committed and the entire south recognizes and acknowledges the criminality of the act. There is not an intelligent white citizen in the south who will not admit that the disfranchisement of Afro-Americans in the south is in direct violation of our federal constitution. There is not an intelligent citizen anywhere who will not admit that the act is unwarranted, untenable, and is an unjust discrimination against citizens whose claims under the law are just as sacred and title just as valid as his. As patriots, senators are bound to concern themselves in regard to that which concerns a just administration of public affairs, the rights of citizens and the rights of free government, and cannot be impaired without encroaching upon the powers of the United States. As custodians of the powers of this government, senators are sworn and pledged to see that no unjust discrimination shall exist. As the trusted guardians of the republic, senators dare not betray the cause of this nation into hands of those who would abuse rightful authority. As a matter of justice to Mr. Pritchard whose rights in the election have been abused and as a matter of justice to all candidates of whatever ticket, it is the duty of congress to suppress the crime of robbery in the right of suffrage. It may not be an easy task to confront and suppress a gigantic wrong, but there is safety in right dealing while there is danger in tolerating the wrong. Standing upon the very threshold of the new century, may the nation's guides nerve themselves to duty, and signalize the triumph of right principles in the cause of the people, of righteousness and fair dealing among men. O MR. C. L. LACY. A Most Successful Lecturer, a Fluent Talker and a Thoughtful Host Flux Talker and a Thorough Race Man. Mr. C. L. Lacy has been with Sigler Bross, jewelers, for the last 18 years. During that time he has written his able lecture: "Self-made Man." He will get a vacation February 23 which will last two weeks and will speak at Martin's Ferry on that date, and continue to deliver his lecture at different points along the Ohio river. Any society or organization wishing to secure his services should write him at once. His terms for lecturing will be reasonable. On March 14 he lectures at Cory chapel. "Self-made Man" is one of the most interesting, telling and beneficial lectures now before our people, and committees that fail to secure the services of Mr. Lacy will not only miss a rare treat, but sustain positive loss. It will benefit every individual who is fortunate enough to hear him. Persons desiring his services should address him at 24 Pine street, Cleveland, O. Cleveland, O., Aug. 17, 1896. To Whom it may Concern: I have read with much interest the address upon the subject of "Self-made Man," by Chas. L. Lacy, of this city, and cheerfully commend it to all those who desire to be pleasantly and instructively entertained on that subject. I have known Mr. Lacy for many years as an active, industrious, painstaking gentleman, and trust his address may be reciprocally profitable to him and those who hear or read it. A. J. SANFORD. LOW FARE SOUTH. To New Orleans, Mobile and Pensacola via Pennsylvania Lines. Excursion tickets to New Orleans, La., Mobile, Ala., and Pensacola, Fla., for Annual Mardi Gras Festivities, will be sold via Pennsylvania Lines February 12th to 17th, inclusive, good returning leaving those points not later than March 7th. Anybody may take advantage of the low rates, and any Pennsylvania Lines Passenger or Ticket Agent will furnish full particulars upon application. C. Smith and others were given similar ovations and cheers. President Morrow, of the league, called the banqueters to order and presented Toastmaster Frederick A. Henry. Mr. Henry went to business at once by reading letters of regret from Senator Foraker and Col. M. T. Herrick. "It would be wrong," said Mr. Henry, "to omit from the observance of a day of such significance the reading of extracts from the Lincoln oration delivered by the historian Bancroft. An extract from this oration will be read by H. V. Spellman, of Marietta, secretary of the league." Mr. Spellman read from a book with marked feeling and effect. Following is the programme and also the menu of the evening: Lincoln—Extracts from Bancroft's Oration .....Mr. H. V. Speelman, Marietta The Republican Party The Republican Party .....Hon. T. E. Burton, Cleveland The Press .....Mr. I. F. Mack, Sandusky "Young Man in Politics" .....Mr. W. D. Meals The Negro as Patriot and Republican .....Hon. Harry C. Smith, Cleveland Ohio .....Mr. Scott Bonham, Cincinnati Cast Not Your Lot with the Pessimists Old Mantilla Bouillon Financiere Pimolas Celery Radishes Red Snapper, Cardinal Barsac Cucumbers Parisienne Potatoes Lobster Newburg, Cocotte Filet of Beet, Mushroom Sauce Moet & Chandon White Seal Head Lettuce Nenpolitan Ice Cream Assorted Cake Roquefort Cheese Toasted Wafers Cigars Mocha The Cleveland Leader of Wednesday morning said: "The yells and hand clapping that greeted Hon. Harry C. Smith when he rose to reply to the toast, 'The Negro as Patriot and Republican,' made his reception the most uproarious of the evening, excepting that to Congressman Burton. "Crispus Attucks, a Negro, was this country's first martyr patriot "One-third of the crews of the boats with which Perry won his victory on Lake Erie were men of the colored race," he said. "The colored soldiers in Cuba saved our vice president and what was left of his regiment. "Four states of this Union have violated the organic law of the Union, and disfranchised 400,000 colored citizens of the country. I mention this to you because the colored voters of this country look to the republican congress for the remedy as provided in Sec. 2 of the 14th amendment of the United States constitution. It isn't a long step from the disfranchisement of colored men to the disfranchisement of white men—working men of the north—as a result of the influence of trusts and other great corporate influences. The time has come when this must be looked to." The Cleveland Plain Dealer of the same day said: "I introduce to you a man whom you can be proud to listen to,' said Toastmaster Henry in presenting Hon. Harry C. Smith, of Cleveland, who responded to the toast 'The Negro as a Patriot and Republican.' "The only thing which the Negro possesses,' said Mr. Smith, 'which is invaluable to the United States is his right to vote, and now this is being taken away from him. I want you to consider that the disfranchisement of the Negro will lead to the disfranchisement of other citizens of the country.' Mr. Smith made an appeal to the republican party to remedy the tendency towards the disfranchisement of his race. Mr. Smith's address was a strong one and most cordially received." At 1 o'clock the banquet was over. It was a magnificent affair. The Afro-American guests present were: Messrs. Edward Daw, J. E. Reed, of this city, and Charles Cottrill, of Toledo. The Colonial hotel's headwaiter and men deserve great praise for the splendid service throughout the evening, and especially during the serving of the menu. INTERESTING LETTER Received from Alvan L. Kenny-Will Remain in Bongo Bong for Two Years. Oberlin, O.—Alvan L. Kenny has written the following interesting letter from the Philippines to his sister Lela: "Bonga Bong, Philippine Islands, Dec. 4th, 1900. I will tell you of my journey across the "largest waters in the world." My company left San Francisco Oct. 1st, at 12 o'clock, arriving at Honolulu, Hawaiian islands, Oct. 15, remaining five days. We left for Manila, Philippine islands; landed Oct. 31st, and then marched 150 miles to reach Bonga Bong, where we will remain for two years and then return to the United States. Over here oranges, bananas and cocoanuts are as plentiful as apples in the states. All we have to do is just pick them, or get the little Filipinos to get them for us. It is as warm here at all times as it is there in August. One has to go without a coat. At present I am clerk for my company and have to report the sick list to the doctor every day at 4 o'clock."—The recital given by Messrs. Clarence White and Gerald Tyler, of the conservatory, was fine and highly appreciated.—Mrs. Strange is ill with la grippe. There has been talk of organizing a bowling team here.—Charley has returned from Denver, where he went for his health. LOW FARE TO WASHINGTON For First Presidential inauguration of Twentieth Century.

Mrs. Sarah Barnett, an old and honorable resident of Huntsville, Ala., died in that city Sunday morning last. She was the mother of Mrs. Maria Barnett Powers, who is well and favorably known in this city. W. J. Crawford (white), Will Clifford and H. T. Eubanks stirred up a feeling at the charity ball Wednesday evening as the result of their effort to turn the affair into a political meeting for a sufficient length of time to permit the first and last named to talk in the interest of Eubank's candidacy for the council. It is to the credit of the Robeda club that they did not permit anything of the kind. Mr. Welcome T. Blue deserves a great deal of credit for the thoroughness with which the charity ball was advertised. The other members also worked hard and faithfully. R. A. Hudson, candidate for constable, was born in Cleveland in 1873. He attended the public schools and Caton's business college. Mr. Hudson entered the business world as clerk in a justice's office, occupying the position creditably for two years, resigning to accept the position as general manager of the Inter-State Secret Service association, holding the same for six years.

Mr. E. R. Griswold, candidate for renomination as justice of the peace, came from New England, but has spent nearly his entire life in Ohio, having lived in this city over 50 years. In the present primaries our people should take pleasure in casting their votes for such a worthy representative. Justice Griswold is an ardent republican and of much experience in the office he seeks. He will be renominated. Remember him. R. A. Hudson, a sterling young republican, candidate for constable, is apt, thoroughly capable and honest, and if nominated will make a splendid official. He is one of the strongest candidates in the field for constable and our people should take pleasure in aiding him. Remember Mr. Hudson when you cast your vote for constable on February 21. Vote for W. J. Akers for mayor. We should rally to the standard of every honest and capable Afro-American who is a candidate for office. Therefore, the Afro-American voters in the Fourth district the 10th, 11th, 12th and 14th wards) should stand shoulder to shoulder for Mr. Henry T. Eubanks, candidate for the council, and vote for him. See that your friends do so also. BARBERS WANTED.—Two young gentlemen with two or more years' experience. Must be neat and clean in appearance and of good address. Write Warren & West, 116 Griswold street, Detroit, Mich. For Rent. — Pleasant furnished rooms at 127 Harmon street. Hon. W. R. Stewart, of Youngstown, O., writes: "I am interested in Akers' campaign on account of stopping at his hotel." Mr. Akers is the kind of a friend of the race who believes in treating all gentlemen and ladies, regardless of color, as such, and has always done so, not only in his business, but whenever he has come in personal contact with them. Our people should rally around his standard and help to nominate him as the republican candidate for mayor. Vote for Akers. H. Q. Sargent, while director of schools, refused to appoint a colored man to any position. When he was first elected we had FIVE school janitors. When he left the office we had ONE. The editor of this paper plead with him for nearly two years to appoint an Afro-American school janitor, but he would not and did not do so. He had nothing to do with the appointment of our young ladies in the schools. On the contrary. Hon. W. J. Akers has been a lifelong friend. This everyone knows. Work and vote for Akers. A musical and dramatic recital will be given in Woodliff hall Monday evening, February 18, by Mr. William Taylor and Dr. G. Harry Wilson, assisted by Mrs. Beaulah Griffin West, Dr. A. R.

He has a medicine that will cure drunkenness; can be given patients not knowing it. Thousands through him are now 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 all your wishes. In love affairs he never fails. He has the powers 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 on such. DR. SHEA refers to the Hon.

This is to certify I came to Brooklyn in Alhambra stranger in a strange city out of work and out of money. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I did; he told me the cause of all my trouble; he took me in and treated me like a brother. Through him I got a good position that very week. I had been to others; they took my money and did me no good. I bless the day I was born. I would allain in all bake, sick or in trouble to go to him stonce.

I gave him up as dead. Hearing of the wonderful things DR. SHEA was doing, I resolved to consult him. He told me my husband was alive and well and where he was; told me he would come home and when. To my joy all of it came true. He is home now; came back like one from the dead. I also wish to say that this month I lost the sum of $2.0. I am a poor woman and I was most insane. I went to DR. SHEA and he told me I would find a place to live. I was very sad. He told me. I thank God there is a man so gifted in our midst that can help people and tell them what to do.

Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are frauds pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair Tonics. OZONO. iron-clad guarantee to do all that. Now, we ask you a plain question: $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with all we claim for them?

Nothing but Ozono is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application.

Nash and “Jim Crow” Cars in Ohio— Officers Elected—Afro-Amerl+ cans Independent in Polltics— Mrs. Nancy Knight—Brad- ford-Steward— Bishop Lee’s Report. Negro seems to be on the independ- ent or negative side. In fact, he is now sought and his opinions and conclusions ere valuable just at this time. There is every evidence appar- ent that there will be three candi- dates for mayor, as the Citizens’ league has entered the fight with in- tentions to make an honest effort for an honest city administration. The present republican administra- tion proved a failure and has caused a greater disaffection to exist than ever before. There has been a grow- ing disaffection for years against the practice of giving over our city gov- suiods ay} Jas0 aqqrabs 03 saraed Teonyod jo spuvy aya opus iuemuse and administer the law as “party policy” or party leaders may dictate. First one party, then another, has been tried, all with equal results; hence it is highly essential that “party” for the time being be forgot and better results be obtained by the election of capable and honest men who represent no faction or politi- cal party, to the end that our city government be conducted on a true civil service basis. The Citizens’ league has been formed and the first effort is to organize a commit- tee of 100 representative citizens to co-operate with the execu- tive committee, name a suitable can- didate and work for his election. The executive committee in making a selection for this committee of 100 has honored Rey. James Poindexter, Isaac D. Ross and Charles E. Ran- som with a membership. The com- mittee is headed by Hon. Joseph H. Outhwaite, Dr. D. N, Kinsman, E. 0, Randall, E. W. Seeds, Col. A. B. Coit, D. S. Gray and others of equal distinction and business conpections. —Mrs. Nancy Knight, daughter of Joseph and Esther Harris, whose death and burial were announced in The Gazette last week, was born on the Harris estate, on the corner of High and Court streets, April 5, 1828. For 52 years she was a faithful servant in Henry C. Noble’s family, remaining with them until their deaths. She employed every means to acquire a home of her own, and to this end she labored, toiled and struggled, and was successful, not only in the one attempt, but in oth- ers. She loved her home and with- out a fault protected it. She loved most affectionately her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Ransom, and for them at all times had a ‘care. Fifty-one years ago she professed religion. In her last moments when bidding her family farewell, she begged of them to meet her in heaven and her last request was for Mr. and Mrs. Ransom to sing a favorite hymn, “Jesus, Lover of My Soul,” and as they sang, she waved her hands. It was her desire to leave this world “Sunday morning,” and the desire was fulfilled. She died at 10:30 January 27.—William Bradford, formerly of Akron, and Cordelia Steward, of the second A. M. E. ehureh, were married recently by Rev. Stewart and are living on Mt. Vernon avenue. — Bishop B. F. Lee was in the city and reports his dis- trict in a flourishing conglition and the interests of the church increas- ing. Recently the denomination of Virginia purchased a four acre tract of land in Roanoke, valued at $20,- 000, for the purpose of establishing a school of technical and manual training for girls. A building erect- ed for college purposes, three stories high, 41 feet front by 91 feet deep, equipped with all modern improve- ments and slate roof, occupies an elevated portion of the ground. The school will commence next fall. Representative Afro-Americans of Ohio gathered in Columbus last week Tuesday and Wednesday in the coun- cil chamber to discuss subjects of particular interest to the race. ‘The preliminary meeting of the confer- ence was called to order at 10:30 a.m, by Rev. J. M. Townsend, after which prayer was offered by Rev. P. J. Blackburn, of Mt. Vernon. Captain W. S. Thomas read the call for the meeting. M. F. Walker, of Steuben- ville, was selected temporary chair- man and Mr, Blackburn temporary secretary. The usual committees were appointed. Professor W. S. Searborough was chosen permanent chairman; ‘It. E. Peterson, Uhrichs- ville; L. J. Cash, Washington C. H. and W. E. Stewart, Bellefontaine, vice chairman; Rey. P. J. Blackburn, sec- retary, and Cornelius Higginbotham, Columbus, sergeant-at-arms. Upon taking the chair Professor Searbo- rough delivered an address, after which Hon. H. C. Smith, Rev. J. H. Jones, J. J. Lee, M. F. Walker, L. J. Cash, Dr. Carey and Captain W. S. ‘Thomas discussed certain features of the race problem. The editor of The Gazette’s speech was regarded as de- cidedly the strongest of the sessions. Wednesday morning a committee of the conference called upon Gov. Nash as instructed. The visit was short, but sufficiently attended for Rev. J. M. Townsend, Professor W. P. Dabney, of Cincinnati, and T. E. Peterson to call the attention of the governor to the complaint that “Jim Crow” cars are run into the Union station at Columbus and Cincinnati. The governor made a courteous re- ply, requesting that the delegation furnish him with the necessary infor- mation as to the lines engageil in the infraction of the statutes of Ohio for- bidding such discrimination. A com- mittee appointed for the purpose will furnish the governor with the desired ‘information. The following commit- tee, Rev, J. H. Jones, J. S. Tyler, Wil- bur E. King. Rev. J. M. Townsend and Professor W. S. Scarborough, was ap- pointed with instructions to formu- late an expression and publish it within 15 days, sending copies to each member of the conference. The con- ference then resolved itself into a a ene. Cen OD geant-at-arms and an assistant. The league shall meet annually subject to the call of the president or organiza- tion. ‘There shall be a committee of five members or constitution and by- laws elected by the majority of dele- gates present. The organization was completed by the election of the fol- lowing officers by acclamation: Pro- fessor W. S. Scarborough, Wilber- force, president; Rev. I. N. Ross, Cincinnati, vice president; M. F. Walker, Steubenville, secretary; J. S. ‘Tyler, corresponding secretary: S. S. Clements, Steubenville, treasurer; J. Frank Fletcher, Marietta, sergeant- at-arms; L. 0. Harris, Circleville, as- sistant. All those in attendance at the conference were constituted an executive committee and made life members. ‘The officers were instruct- ed to call a meeting of the league for duly 3, and the membership fee for clubs of @ non-partisan character was fixed at $2.50 per annum. The next meeting will be held in Colum- bus. NOTICE OF REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES.

The Event of the Season. _ The charity ball given by the Ro- beda club Wednesday night for the benefit of Old Folks’ Home, at Forest street armory, was a grand success, about 350 people being present. The club deserves great credit for the very earnest efforts put forth in bringing about such a grand success, ‘both in point of attendance and finance. At 11 o'clock the grand eae, led by Mr. and Mrs, T. J. I Fleming to the sweet strains of Mr. Bowman's orchestra, was well and | artistically executed, 66 couples in line. It was a most beautiful scene. ‘The members of the club appeared at their best, in full evening dress, The ladies presented a charming appear: ance. Never perhaps in the history of the city was there such a coterie of veautiful ladies and lovely costumes. Among those present and the gowns they wore we might mention: Mrs J. EK. Reed, a handsome black silk gown, trimmed with Irish point lace; Mrs. G. C. Price, blue silk with lace trimming; Mrs. T,.\W, Fleming, yel- low grosgrain silk, applecay trim- ming; Mrs. Walter Randolph, a beau- tiful French challie; Miss Carrie Southers, all over appleeay blue taf- feta silk with beautiful French trim- mings; Miss Irene Hardy, green and white silk waist with black silk skirt; Miss May Sutton, china silk with chiffon trimmings; Mrs. Minnie Hamlett-Ford, gown of sea foam green nun’s veiling with pink satin, rennaisance lace and black velvet trimmings; Miss Olive A. Hamlett, gown of “ashes of roses” taffeta silk, rennaisance lace trimmings, and many others too numerous to men- tion. The hall was most beautifully and artistically decorated for the oc- casion. The lady managers of the Old Folks’ Home under the super- vision of Mrs. J. H. Bolden prepared a sumptuous collation of eatables of which everyone partook heartily. The committee who had the affair in charge and to whom especial credit is due was composed of W. T. Blue, chairman; G. C. Price, T. W. Flem- ing, J. H. Davis and A. T. Abbott.

OST people think that catarrh is a disease confined to the head and nose. Nothing is farther from the truth. It | may be that the nose and throat is the oft | enést affected by catarrh, but if this is so it is | so only because these parts are more ex- posed to the vicissitudes of the climate than the other parts of the body. p Every organ, every. duct, every, cavity of the human body is liable to catarrh. A mu!- titude of ailments depend on catarrh. This is true winter and summer.
