MAY 4. 1901. 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. Gov. Nash must stop southern railroads from running their "Jim Crow" cars across the Ohio river into this state. West Virginia's governor has stopped that sort of thing in his state, and so can and will our governor. Vice-President Theodore Roosevelt will have to write another article on the Afro-American soldier in the Spanish-American war, for Scribner's Magazine, to offset his insulting and aggravating communication of a couple of years ago, before he starts after the presidency. Booker T. Washington is an eminently successful "educator," doubtless the most successful of the kind, and is a local "leader" but is not a "Moses of his race," as many enthusiastic whites and a few Afro-Americans of the country affect to believe. His very position makes it impossible for him to ever become the leader of the race or its "Moses" in any sense. Rev. Chas. H. Parkhurst, of New York City, recently made a brief visit of a few days in the south and was so thoroughly "jollied" by the smooth democratic southerners (white) with whom he came in contact that he returned north and in a sermon told the people of this section that "The Negro should not have been permitted to vote." Other equally as foolish things he said, all with a very evident desire to cater to the southern whites and their "conservative" brethren in this section. All of which goes to show that the great army of fools is on the increase. He is the latest individual of this section to be "mesmerized" by the smooth and designing individual (white) of the sunny south. Last and thus far this year about a score of murderers have been convicted in the courts of Cleveland. All of them with one exception being whites and some of these, confessing to most brutal and fiendish murders, receiving sentences of from four years to life imprisonment in the penitentiary. The Afro-American was convicted on circumstantial evidence and is the only one sentenced to the electric chair. A determined effort, extending over some weeks, has been made to have the governor commute his sentence to life imprisonment. We believe the governor ought to do, this and are not alone in this opinion, because it is clearly evident that the great majority of people in this city, without regard to class or color, who express themselves, have a similar opinion and desire. The Washington (D. C.) Colored American gravely announced in a recent issue that "Mr. White (the ex-congressman) is not a cheap man" because he announces his determination not to accept a $2,500 deputy auditorship, practically a cheap clerkship, if offered it by the administration. According to our contemporary, John Green (an ex-state senator), formerly of this city, now a $2,500 a year chief clerk in the government stamp department at Washington, is "a cheap man." Those of us who have known John for years are not inclined to question the American's estimate. We also feel sure, knowing so well the powers-that-be at Washington, that Messrs. White, Fortune and other brethren who were more loyal to McKinley last fall than they were to the race, and who are said to be patiently waiting for the president to knock a political "plumb" (office) into their hands, will be sadly disappointed. McKinley is too busy dodging the question of disfranchisement and turning down the faithful "old-guard" Afro-American republicans in the south and appointing to office in their stead, "gold democrats" (white), to do anything for northern Afro-Americans. DEATH OF SENATOR HIRAM R. REVELS. The demise of Hon. H. R. Revels takes from the race one of our foremost and ablest men. In his earlier days he was a strong and active minister in the A. M. E. church. He was an accomplished gentleman and a man of strong convictions, yet conciiliary and diplomatic. He was the first Afro-American to occupy a seat in the United States senate, filling the place of the Hon. Jefferson Davis. He was a remarkable man in his day and held leadership more through his powers of persuasiveness than through unyielding persistency. He was modest and unassuming among his fellow senators, but he wielded a quiet and strong influence among members of the senate. He was the friend of the young men and never wearied in assisting them to places of promotion whenever it was pos- sible for him so to do. Over-sanguine in his promises, his failure to accomplish results brought him undeserved reproach, but a truer and nobler friend of the people could hardly be found. His best days were spent in a period of great political excitement, when mighty duties were thrust upon the country. He was deemed worthy by his constituents to share in the grave responsibilities of those trying times. He modestly bore his honors in the senate and contributed an humble part in the reconstruction of government. On retiring from the senate he was appointed by Governor Alcorn, president of Alcorn University, Mississippi where for many years he served with credit to himself, the race and the school. He was the honored trustee of Rust University, Mississippi, always affording fatherly counsel to the pupils and patrons of the institution. So great was his influence over all classes, that on one occasion he suppressed an angry mob by his simple and earnest appeals to the citizens. In his latter days the strength of manhood had left him, but the drivel of dotage had not supervened. We concede this sad immunity to the grave. His life work is done and who shall say it has not been well done? M'KINLEY'S NEW SOUTHERN POLICY. It seems strange, but it is not to those of our people who will think a moment, that President McKinley singles out the only state in the Union in which the state republican organization is controlled by Afro-Americans, to start his recognition of the lily-white republicans of the south. Hon. E. H. Deas and Capt. Robert Smalls, of "Planter" famer are respectively chairman and vice-chairman of South Carolina's republican committee. The president ought to be made to see and realize that any gain of southern lily-white republicans will not offset the loss to the party of northern Afro-American republicans who will leave as a result of his "New Southern Policy." It looks very much as if McLaurin and other southerners have had him "mesmerized" almost continuously since he took office. The ease with which northern republicans, and especially alleged statesmen (white), are thus hoodwinked by the smooth and prejudiced democratic politicians of that section is astonishing, and always for the same thing—offices. They will get them, too, during the remainder of the McKinley administration, and as in the past will in the future bob up supporting democratic candidates in all presidential elections. McLaurin and his kind do not take the stand they do for the purpose, as alleged, of "making respectable (white) the republican party of the south," but are after offices from a republican national administration and are getting them. The fact is, it is only an old scheme, often "worked," to get the federal appointments from the faithful and long suffering Afro-American republicans of that section who are entitled to them. The distressing part about it all is that this is at times thoroughly understood by some of the northern white republicans in power at Washington—those who never lose sight of Congressman James G. Blaine's now notorious expression that "blood is thicker than water," made when a federal elections bill, to which he was opposed, was pending in the lower house of congress and which was intended to rightfully secure the ascendancy of the republican party in a section of the south where Afro-Americans were in control of it. He preferred to continue the white democrats in control. This explains why in the past so very many faithful and deserving black republicans of the south seeking office in their section have been turned down by national republican administrations and white carpet-baggers or other insignificant white republicans (?) and even democrats, preferred. We had an illustration of this week before last when President McKinley on the recommendation of a democratic senator (McLaurin) appointed John Capers, a gold democrat, district attorney for South Carolina, and another member of the democratic party postmaster of a leading city of that state, in preference to a leading and most deserving Afro-American who was indorsed by the state republican committee, the national republican committeeman and the regular republicans of South Carolina. AN EXCELLENT SHOWING St. Leuis Afro-Americans Are Making That Very Thing--Bullers St. Louis, Mo.-There are about 100 business establishments among our people here, among which are eight well-doing groceries, two excellent drug stores, three extensive dealers in merchandise, besides a goodly number of paying mechanical businesses conducted in the most creditable manner. One corporation with a capital stock of $50,000. We have 16 dentists and physicians who have a flourishing practice and who are rapidly acquiring a competency. Our doctors are learned and skilied, so recognized by both races, among which their practice extends. In the legal profession 12 lawyers find a lucrative field for their talents. One is a prosecuting attorney for the city and others have represented celebrated cases both before the state and federal supreme courts. There are 37 carriers and clerks in the federal departments, many of whom by long service and study have acquired an efficiency which none excel. In the various branches of the city government are 13 Afro-American clerks and deputies, whose salaries range from $75 to $150 per month. Besides there is a goodly number who hold positions to which comfortable salaries are attached. Excursion to Akron via Cleveland, Akron & Columbus Railway. May 15th and 16th for Prohibition State Convention low round trip excursion tickets will be sold to Akron via C.. A. & C. Ry, good returning until Friday, May 17th THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 4, 1901. In 1800 imports of merchandise into the United States amounted to $91,252,768, exports to $70,971,760. A century later, in 1900, imports have increased to $849,941,184, and exports to $1,394,483,082. Prince Sesseri, a nephew of the king of Siam, has been serving for some time as a private pupil in the engineering works of the northwestern railroad company at Gateshead, England, in order that he may learn all about locomotive building. It is stated on good authority that the orange-orchard area at Riverside, California, covers thirty square miles, or 19,200 acres, on which are growing 1,536,000 orange trees. The money value of the crop approximates $6,000,000 annually, or about $670 for each man, woman and child in the district. The tablet in memory of the soldiers of 1812, which Secretary Root and Col. Mills have allowed the Empire State society of the daughters of 1812 to place in the West Point chapel, is of black marble with gilt lettering and will be the second of its kind to be placed in the chapel by a patriotic society. According to the state labor Commissioner, the canning industry of Maine is more important and valuable than the slate, granite, and ice industries combined, the value of the output of the 175 canneries in the state being $5,000,000 annually. In ordinary years, $350,000 is paid to farmers for sweet corn alone. An extraordinary case is presented in that of John A. Kasson, of Iowa, the special reciprocity commissioner of the United States, who has declined to accept any future compensation for the duties performed by him, because none of the treaties negotiated became effective. This is one of the few cases of this kind on record. A collection of blotting papers in the possession of an American citizen is estimated to be of great value. Each sheet contains the blotted impression of the handwriting of a president, and all the chiefs of the republic since 1841 are represented. One sheet is that on which President Lincoln blotted a letter on the day of his murder. The world's population of Mohammedans numbers very nearly 200,000,000. Of these, 18,000,000 are under the rule of the Turkish government, 23,000,000 are ruled by other Mussulman sovereigns, 36,500,000 are subject to African princes, 20,000,000 live in China and 99,000,000 are under Christian rulers. Of these last, about 58,000,000 are under British rule. The supreme court of California, in the case of Enos vs. Snyder, has decided, in a contest between next of kin, on the one hand, and claimants under a will on the other hand, for the possession of a corpse that a man can not by will dispose of that which, after his death, will be his corpse. The custody of the corpse and the right of burial belong to the next of kin in preference to the administrator. When wounded in battle horses are attended to as soon as possible. A veterinary officer with an assistant follows close on the fighting line, and those animals with only slight injuries are collected together and sent to the veterinary hospitals established at the fixed camps. Those very badly wounded are shot. Horses killed in battle are either buried or burned, according to the climate. In South Africa they are left to rot. There are 7,400 members of the New York police force for all the boroughs-7,368 to be exact. The number of arrests made by the New York police last year was 138,875, or an average of between eighteen and twenty for each policeman. The city of New York includes 2,508 miles of streets, of which more than 700 are in the borough of Queens and require little patroling, and 289 are in the borough of Richmond, requiring still less. --- One of the striking things shown by the last census is the remarkable increase of tenant farming. The percentage of farms operated by tenants showed a considerable increase by the census of 1900. For the whole country this percentage has increased in the last ten years nearly twice as fast as the per cent of population of the nation, four times that of the purely agricultural population and twice that of the farms operated by their owners. Mrs. Joseph Drexel, of Philadelphia, has presented to the Museum of Arts and Sciences of Philadelphia a fan for which she paid $1,000. Queen Margherita of Italy permitted the royal workmen to carve the sticks of tortoise shell and inlay them with diamonds and pearls. The queen's crown, in diamonds and rubies, and the Cross of Savoy held in small diamonds, enhance the beauty of the fan. The sticks are held together with gold clasps and the lace was made at the school established by the queen. The sanitary department of Havana has entered upon a war of extermination against mosquitoes as the surest method of eliminating the yellow fever. Kerosene is being placed in stagnant pools to kill the mosquitoes in embryo, and Gen. Wood has approved an appropriation of $1,000 for planting eucalyptus trees in the marshy and malarious dustricts around the city. The planting of the castor oil plant, which is there perennial and becomes a tall tree, is also proposed its odor being disagreeable to mosquitoes. --- A novel twentieth century memorial has been erected at the head offices of the Bridgewater trustees' extensive Lancashire collieries. The public clock now strikes 13 instead of one, in order to enable the work people to resume operations promptly after dinner. The device is the original idea of the Duke of Bridgewater, who, in the eighteenth century, erected a similar clock at Worsley to meet the work people's complaint that they sometimes failed to hear the clock strike one. The idea is a good one. TRADE MARK REGISTERED 1892. U.S.PATENT OFFICE WASHINGTON, D.C. Hartona will make the hair grow long and soft, straight and beautiful.

Permission to use the old chape vin the rear of Trinity church, on Su jperior street, was given to the mem cs ‘of St. Andrew’s Episcopal mis ‘gion by the vestrymen of Trinity jparish Sunday.

Hunter, who was in the city recently in the interest of Noxu- bee industrial schook addressed Shi- loh S. S. Sunday. After giving a short interesting talk on the Sunday-school lesson, he ‘branched off on his favor- ite theme, “Noxubee Industrial School.” The professor laid great stress upon the opportunities and ad- vantages our boys and girls up north have to those of our people in the south, and also that we should have a greater appreciation for them. That the professor's talk was interesting and pleased the people greatly was evinced by the attention paid to him and the silence that reigned while he talked. _ The concert given in Mt. Zion church Monday evening in the inter- est of Noxubee industrial school, Macon, Miss. was a grand success. Madam Emma French, of Ashtabula, 0., rendered several ‘beautiful con- tralto solos, which were highly ap- preciated by the audience. © Mrs. French was very ably assisted by Miss Marie Brown, soprano; Miss Florence Dunjill, contralto, and Miss ‘Emma Tolbert, reader. Prof. S. J. once principal of Noxubee insti- tute, gave a very interesting talk at the close of the programme. Quite a neat sum was realized for the school. A number of graduates and under graduates of Wilberforce university, residents of this city, held memorial services in honor of the late ex-pres- ident, S. T. Mitchell, last week Wed- nesday evening at the Second A, M. E. church. Mr. Wm. Mabry gave a sketch of Prof. Mitchell’s life, Miss Mae Early read a paper entitled “Our President,” Rev. J. €. Turner talked of his persistance of effort and his disposition to encourage struggling students, Miss Mildred Means sang an appropriate solo, F. L. Mumford assisted in the musical part of the programme. Chas. H. Orchard was also present. Valuable assistance was also rendered by the fol- lowing . friends: Hon, -- H.-C. Smith, who spoke of Mr. Mitch- ells work in connection with the legislature in establishing the state normal and industrial department of Wilberforce university. Mr. Lewis Patterson sang a solo and Bertha Blue assisted in the music. The pro- gramme was very impressive, St. Andrew's mission is now with- out a place of worship, the Church Home having sold the property for- merly known as St. Peter's church, in which the mission worshiped. Rev. E. 8. Doan, rector of the church of the Good Shepherd, who is in charge of St. Andrew's mission, has for weeks been insisting that the vestry of Trinity cathedral permit the con- gregation of the mission to worship temporarily in the cathedral chapel, at the corner of Euclid avenue and Perry street. ‘The delay in comply- ing with Mr. Doan’s reasonable re- quest is peculiar, to say the least, and it is high time for Bishop Leonard to put an end to it. It looks entirely too much like a “color line” in the Episcopal church of this diocese. Rev. Doan desires the mission to hold services in the Cathedral chapel on Wednesday evenings and Sunday af- ternoons, also an early celebration of the holy communion on the first Sun- day of each month. He also desires an opportunity for the Sunday school of St. Andrew's to meet on Sabbath at 2 p.m. There is nothing unrea- sonable in his requests. Mr. Doan is also determined to build a $10,000 brick church for St. Andrew's, and with this in view a subseription paper will soon be circulated with the Rev. Bishop Leonard, Archdeacon Abbott and Mr. William G. Mather as the finance committee. The Gem restaurant, No. 324 Pros- pect street, J. W. Crawford, proprie- tor, is one of the neatest, coolest and best places in the city for a first- class meal. Our people should take pride in patronizing Mr. Crawford's Gem resturant.

No.49 A White Soldier's Advice Cincinnati, O. — Wm. E. Smith, (white), aged 25, just home from the Philippines, where he served two years with the Thirty-third United States volunteers, tells a lurid tale. “I want to advise every young fel- low I know to think twice before he joinc the army. I had to touch shordders with natives with leprosy, and nursed five cases of smallpox. Our food was ‘slum,’ made of wormy meats and potatoes bciled. We ate mush and raw corn, while turkeys Jand provisions and cois, sent to us by Miss Helen Gould, never reached us, but were sold to merchants in Manila.” Dying at 103. Helena, Mont.—Mrs. Carrie Hen- derson, 103 years old, who worked as a slave with Frederick Douglass, be- fore the war, is dying at the county hospital here. She came to Helena with the first rush after the discov- ery of gold in “Last Chance,” and at ‘one time possessed a fortune.

Many Arduous Duties Are Required of Post Office Clerks in Large Cities. “Working New York city,” as the duty of Boston clerks is called, is most exacting. There are 35 divisions to which letters are sent in New York, and the clerks must familiar- ize themselves with the exact streets and parts of streets in each. Broad- way is divided into 14 of these di- visions, and a clerk must know just what portion of this thoroughfare is in each division, says the Boston Herald. Again, he must locate, with out a moment's delay, all the princi- pal firms of the city, magazines, newspapers, banks, hotels, clubs, hos- pitals, theaters, large buildings. There are 1,875 separations in this way, and in order that the clerks may not forget them they are obliged to be examined twice a year on them. Each of the clerks on the New York city mai] handles about 15,000 letters a night. The Pennsyl- vania mail is worked by one clerk, and there is also one each for New Jersey, Rhode Island and Connecti- cut. Phen there are two other clerks who work the south and west states for distribution. There are five mails @ day from Boston to New York, and four from New York to Boston. | While the train which has just been described is the greatest mail carrier out of Boston, its sister train, which leaves New York for Boston at the same time, is a still greater won- der, for the mail is so great coming from New York to Boston that five cars are required to carry it and 20 men to handle it. The mail came pouring into the car at an early hour inthe evening, and it seemed as if there would be no let-wp. In order that the business district of Boston may get its mail at the opening of Dusiness in the morning, five of the clerks on the train work the mail not only by stations, but they also work the mail, so, far as the main office is concerned, by carriers and boxes. This makes a total of 91 di- visions of the letters for the carriers and box sections at the main office and substations. In this way the trip from New York to Boston is much more difficult than from Boston to New York. For while there are but 85 divisions to be made for New York, there are 91 for Boston. PRODUCTS OF THE FURNACE. Phosphorus One of the New Ele- ments Produced by the Applica- tion of Electricity. Still another triumph has to be written down to the credit of the electrical furnace. It is now found possible to reduce phosphorus elec- trolytically in a manner as simple as economical. Phosphate rock is treat- ed under the electric are, and the vapors reduced by suitable cooling means and the resulting phosphorus collected and treated in the customary way. The cost of producing yellow phosphorus is stated to be 344d a pound, of which cost electric current is accountable for 114d. A new metal is claimed to have been produced by the same means—i. e., the electric furnace. It is stated to have the appearance and nearly the specific gravity of silver, and to be unattacked by either sulphurie or hydrochloric acids, through slightly acted on by concentrated nitric acid, says the London Express. It i® also stated to form an electrical conductor of a conductivity equal to copper at a temperature beneath 90 degrees Fah- renheit. It may be well to note in regard to these statements that the possibility of producing a “new metal” is very remote, and that they should be ac- cepted with reserve. It is worth re- marking, however, that the use of the electric furnace is in this country con- fined to two purposes—the manufac- ture of aluminum and carbide of calei- um. We do not appear to be able to get any farther than the evolution of these two bodies. Both in Germany and the United States the electric fur- nace is extensively employed, for not only aluminum and the carbide, bnt for making artificial graphite, car- bonindum, and, as we have seen, phos- phorus, while it is incessantly being experimented with in synthetical pro- duction in other directions. River Records in Corea, An American engineer, Mr. W. H. Holmes, who has recently returned from Corea, describe as most admir- able and useful the system that has been in vogue there for many centuries of keeping an accurate record of the flow of rivers. Mr. Holmes was en- gaged in bridging river whose rec- ord for 509 years has been kept un- broken. It was explained that the history of the river previous to the beginning of the existing record had unfortunately been destroyed by fire.

Washington, May %.—The guard at the American legation in Pekin will not be subjected to the order of any foreign general. Official reports of the latest phases of the negotia- tions at Pekin, as told in press dis- patches, have not reached Washing- ton, and it is suggested as a possibil- ity that the demands in this regard of the international generals are not unqualified. Still, if it is, the Amer- ican legation guard will retain its in- dependence, even if it is necessary to that end to remove it from Pekin and from China. The latter course might become necessary in case one of the powers formally declares war upon China and exercises its right to cause the withdrawa! of all neutral forces, but under existing conditions the guard probably will remain. Germany was one of the powers that subscribed to the suggestion of the United States thai no nation make private arrangements with China for the enlargement or acqui- sition of concessions. so the officials here ars surprised to learn that the Germans have taken steps to acquire a concession at Canton, It is believed here that it was with- out doubt the insistence by the Uni- ted States upon this agreement that checkmated Russian designs upon Manchuria for the time being. Who Is McQuade? New York, May 2.—The safe seized in the raid on alleged gambling re- sorts Tuesday night was opened yes- terday in the presence of Justice Jerome.

Recently there has been placed in all the grocery stores a new preparation called GRAIN-O, made of pure grains, that takes the place of coffee. The most delicate stomach receives it without distress, and but few can tell it from coffee. It does not cost over 1 as much. Children may drink it with great benefit. 15 cts. and 25 cts. per package. Try it. Ask for GRAIN-O.

The stomach has to work hard, grinding the food we crowd into it. Make its work easy by chewing Beeman's Pepsin Gum. It is well to be thankful for small merries. Such is the opinion of a man from whose pocket was stolen a purse containing £25. Some months later he received this letter: "Dear Sir: I stold your money.

A When a cheerful, brave and light-hearted woman is suddenly plunged into that perfection of misery, the blues, it is a sad picture. It is usually this way: She has been feeling out of sorts for some time, experiencing severe headache and backache; sleeps very poorly and is exceedingly nervous. Sometimes she is nearly overcome by faintness, dizziness, and palpitation of the heart; then that bearing-down feeling is dreadfully wearing. Her husband says, "Now, don't get the blues! You will be all right after you have taken the doctor's medicine." But she does not get all right. She grows worse day by day, until all at once she realizes that a distressing female complaint is established.

PINKHAM:—I feel it my duty to write and tell you of the benefit I have received from your wonderful remedies. Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, I was a misery to myself and every one around me. I suffered terrible pain in my back, head, and right side, was very nervous, would cry for hours. Menses would appear sometimes in two weeks, then again not for three or four months. I was so tired and weak, could not sleep nights, sharp pains would dart through my heart that would almost cause me to fall. "My mother coaxed me to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I had no faith in it, but to please her I did so. The first bottle helped me so much that I continued its use. I am now well and weigh more than I ever did in my life."—MRS. WINIFRED ALLENDER.

At the examination of seventy-eight recruits of the German army twenty-one did not know who was the Emperor of Germany. Miss Ruth Mason, daughter of Senator Mason will receive the degree of LL.B. in June from the National University Law college, at Washington. It is a peculiar fact that the emperor of China and the viceroy of India, taken together, govern more than half the population of the world. King Edward VII., contrary to widely circulated reports, has not resigned from any of the London clubs of which, as prince of Wales, he was a member. The total number of copies of newspapers printed throughout the world in one year is estimated at 12,000,000,000. To print these requires 781,260 tons of paper. Mine. Niel, the widow of the famous French marshal, died the other day at the age of seventy-nine. Her son, Gen. Niel, commands the third brigade of dragoons at Rheims. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 1900, Canada exported 205,524 head of cattle, valued at $8,689,970; the United States, during the same period, exported 396,977 head, valued at $30,623,708. An Arkansas bill prohibiting ferryies from being operated within one mile of each other was unanimously killed by the senate, on the ground that "it would legislate a widow out of business." The remains of Gen. Otho F. Strahl, who was killed in battle 37 years ago, was moved from Columbia, Tenn., to Dyersburg, in the same state, for re-interment by his confederate comrades. A photographer of Zurich has invented an apparatus for taking long-distance photos. He took a good photograph of Saentis, 120 miles from Yverdon, where he had fixed an apparatus 10 feet long. Whistling in Iceland is considered as much of a sin as profanity. There are some parts of the world where the same offense is considered worthy of fine and imprisonment, but there are no laws to prevent it. An enormous quantity of fruit is going to waste in southern California for lack of cars to convey it east. The crop was the greatest on record, being estimated at from twenty-two to twenty-five thousand car loads. In Sweden they have a land arrangement of this kind: The farmer will give a tenant so many acres of ground, provided the tenant will give him so many days' labor for so many years, the labor to be paid as wanted. The Norwegian harvest of 1900 is reported by the new agricultural department of Norway to have resulted in the following yield: Wheat and rye, 1,159,000 bushels; barley, 3,801,000 bushels; oats, 9,222,000 bushels; and potatoes, 22,216,000 bushels.

Prof. Hodge of Clark university estimates that toads are worth $19.88 each for their work as destroyers of cutworms. He thinks the propagation of toads would solve the gypsy moth problem. The pope (who at one time was a reigning monarch over the papal states) is credited with receiving no fewer than 20,000 letters and newspapers every day. There is some doubt as to the flight of the eagle being as rapid as many would make it, but it is yet known that the swiftest hare has no chance with it in regard to speed. Capt. J. M. Brooke, who designed the famous Merrimac, is now professor emeritus of physics at the Virginia military academy, Lexington, Va. He joined the United States navy in 1841. Ask your grocer to-day to show you a package of GRAIN-O, the new food drink that takes the place of coffee. The children may drink it without injury as well as the adult. All who try it, like it.

Are You Going Abroad? Are You Going Abroad? If you are going abroad be sure to select the Lackawanna Railroad as your route East. The terminus of that line is within two blocks of the docks of the ocean liners operated by the Cunard, Hamburg-American, White Star, North German Lloyd, Netherlands American, American, Red Star and French Lines. To the traveler, often encumbered with luggage and accompanied by his family, the advantage of landing so near his point of embarkation is at once apparent. Not only is the Lackawanna Railroad the most convenient line to the piers of the great Trans-Atlantic Steamers, but the comfort of its patrons is the special care of a Steamship Agent who will be found on the docks of all the principal lines. From Chicago three through trains are run daily in connection with the Nickel Plate offering a service unsurpassed in luxury and convenience. From St. Louis there is also a through daily service in connection with the Wabash Railroad. As Far as She Could Go.

Wonderful. Yes, and more than wonderful; one might say "most wonderful" when speaking of Palmer's Vegetable Cosmetic Lotion, which, for over fifty years, has been the standard preparation for the skin. Mr. Joseph Inkrat, of Cincinnati, Ohio, wrote: "Your Lotion has cured me of a very annoying face eruption, with which I have been troubled for a long time. It is a wonderful medicine." This testimony is echoed by all who have used this great healer and beautifier and none fail to praise it and recommend its use. If your druggist hasn't it, send to Solon Palmer, 374 Pearl Street, New York, for samples of Palmer's Lotion and Lotion Soap. A New Wrinkle "The idea!

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and prescribed local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testimonials. Address F. J.

Thousands of Fair Women Are Never Without Pe-ru-na The National Catarrh Remedy, Miss Marie Coats, President of the Appleton Young Ladies' Club, writes the following concerning Peruna: Appleton, Wis. Gentlemen "I find Peruna an excellent spring and summer medicine and am glad to call the attention of my friends to it. When that languid, tired feeling comes over you, and your food no longer tastes good, and small annoyances irritate you, Peruna will make Miss Marie Coats. you feel like another person inside of a week. I have now used it for three seasons and find it very reliable and efficacious."—Marie Coats. Mrs. Al. Wetzel, 21 South 17th street, Terre Haute, Ind., writes: "Peruna is the greatest medicine on earth. I feel well and that tired feeling is all gone. When I began to take your medicine I could not smell nor hear a church bell ring. Now I can smell and hear. When I began your treatment my head was terrible, all sorts of buzzing, chirping and loud noises. Three months ago I dragged around like a snail; now I can walk as briskly as ever. I am going to go and see the doctor that said I was not long for this world, and tell him that Peruna cured me."—Mrs. Al. Wetzel. If all the tired women and all the nervous women, and all the women that needed a tonic would read and heed the words of these three fair ladies who have spoken right to the point, how many invalids would be prevented and how many wretched lives be made happy. Peruna restores health in a normal way. Peruna puts right all the mucous membranes of the body, and in this way restores the functions of every organ. If it is the stomach that is out of order, and the digestion impaired, Peruna quickly makes things right by restoring the mucous membrane of the stomach. If the nerves tingle, if the brain is tired, if the strength is flagging and the circulation of blood weakened by flabby mucous membranes of the digestive organs, Peruna reaches the spot at once by giving to these membranes the vitality and activity which belongs to them. The pelvic organs are also lined with mucous membrane which in the female sex is especially liable to derangements. Peruna is an absolute specific in these cases. The women everywhere are praising it. No other remedy has ever received such unqualified praise from such a multitude of women. If you do not derive prompt and satisfactory results from the use of Peruna, write at once to Dr. Hartman, giving a full statement of your case, and he will be pleased to give you his valuable advice gratis.
