Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, the second-class matter. Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. CLEVELAND, SATURDAY, FEB. 15, 1902. 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 nomination of that man Koester for collector of internal revenue of South Carolina ought not to be confirmed by the United States senate. We are reliably informed that on August 1, 1893, in a paper that he was publishing, and in an affidavit on or about December 1, 1901, and also in a letter to the president, October 1, 1901, he confessed that he captured the Afro-American Preston (only charged with the commission of crime) and turned him over to a mob that lynched him. This is more than enough cause for a refusal to confirm his nomination, and for its withdrawal upon the part of the president. The republican party of the country cannot afford to stand responsible for such an appointment or confirmation. The following Ohio Republican congressmen, Messrs, J. A. Beidler, Emmett Tompkins, J. H. Bromwell, W. W. Skiles, T. E. Burton and Thomas B. Kyle, wrote the editor of The Gazette promptly and favorably in reply to a letter from him requesting their active support of the Crumpacker resolution. Congressmen Cannon and Reeves, of Illinois, and Representative Payne, of New York state, seem to have been the only northern members of the lower house of the federal assembly who, in the house republican caucus on the 3d, had the temerity to either oppose the Crumpacker resolution or counsel delay in the consideration of any measure directed against disfranchisement. We find that intelligent Afro-Americans are entirely too slow and backward in impressing their congress representatives as to their desires in this matter. As with this, so with other matters of vital interest to the race. All of which explains, in a large measure, why so little progress along a citizen rights line is being made by the race. Wake up! During the federal senate discussion (on January 29 and February 6) of contemplated legislation affecting the Philippines, coarse and blatant one-eyed Ben Tillman, who, as a member of the body, disgraces South Carolina and the country, engaged in an angry colloquy with Senators Spooner and Foraker, respectively, and received "trimmings" from them which would mean a great deal to any gentleman—any other member of that august body. Senator Foraker's replies were especially caustic. We are beginning to hope that the time has at last arrived when at least some of the northern members of the federal senate and house will return with compound interest, so to speak, the dirty blows given them in debate by southern democratic members whenever any phase of the race question is under discussion. Our people of Ohio and the north can depend upon Senator Foraker's holding his own and "a little more" in debate with Tillman or any other member of the senate. Would that there were more like him in both branches of congress! I. T. Montgomery, of Mississippi, as a member of the late constitutional convention of that state, voted for Mississippi's new constitution which, of course, includes the disfranchising clause, and supported his action and the measure with a speech which the Democratic press of that state applauded to the echo. Montgomery is the Afro-American that President Roosevelt recently appointed register of the land office with headquarters at Jackson, Miss., displacing that veteran republican and one of the few remaining members of the "Old Guard," Hon. James Hill, the republican leader of the state for many years. Montgomery was elected a member of the constitutional convention by the Democrats of Bolivar county, Miss. Just how much a republican he is remains to be seen. Any black man who can thus be used by democrats seeking to disfranchise his people, can hardly be either a loyal Afro-American or republican. He was recommended for the place (we are informed by leading Afro-American republicans of Mississippi) by Edgar S. Wilson (white) recently appointed to a federal position, and Booker T. Washington. The same gentleman writes us that "Wilson is a bitter democrat and Negro hater and for years was a correspondent of the New Orleans Picayune. Also that he was put in touch with President Roosevelt by Booker Washington." ATTENTIONI LADIES Among the staunchest supporters The Gazette has had during nearly all of its 19 years of publication, are thousands of our ladies. They have THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1902. endorsed The Gazette by giving it constant support—the best way possible. We know that they appreciate the splendid and up-to-date fashion letter our paper brings to them almost weekly. We want to ask a favor of our lady patrons and readers, and that is, that they call their lady friends and acquaintances' attention to our fashion letter, and other good features of the paper, with a view to interesting them in The Gazette sufficiently to patronize it as you do. Ladies of The Gazette family, will you oblige us? We feel sure you will. TRUE MANLINESS MORE DESIRABLE THAN FEDERAL PATRONAGE. Now and then we discover through the columns of some of our leading contemporaries a tendency to curry favor of the administration even at a sacrifice of the principle for which we contend. But it is not consistent and it is far less honorable to compromise one's convictions for the sake of a temporary gain. The goal of our ambition should lie in manly and honorable success and in the ultimate triumph of right principles. We cannot afford to lose sight of the fact that he who battles for right principles is greater than he who governs a nation. It is our primal duty to dissent from whatever methods or practices seem not to accord with our own sense of justice. In such a contention we are rendering a holy service to our constituents and to those whose cause we represent. But if we falter in the discharge of such a duty or disregard our highest obligation to our conscience, to the race and to God, then it becomes a question to be determined whether the individual can be depended upon in the moment of trial. Our leaders must be true and loyal—true to the core and unyielding to anything that tends to compromise the race. We stand for republican principles, we stand for the equity of our claims, despite all odds and against every opposition. Better that we suffer wrong and endure privations than surrender one jot or tittle of truth and manhood in order to gratify an ambitious desire. Only upon just and equitable terms could we petition the appointing power, so that if the governor of the state or the president of the United States in the exercise of their appointing power should confer honors well merited, very well. But we cannot go beyond the line of duty in our aspirations to win. It may be better by far that we hold to the faith within us,hew to the line, cry aloud and spare not, than bend the knee and deny the cause of truth. We may desire office and we may seek it upon many terms; but never at the cost of our manhood. Arnold was inordinately ambitious and for the sake of promotion, he betrayed the cause of his country. Let the strong men of the race stand firm,stand for the right, battle on and ever, nor yield the fight till our cause is won. A MORE PERFECT UNION. A Memorial of the Federal Party in the Philippines Is Presented to Congress. Washington, Feb. 13.—The memorial of the federal party of the Philippine islands was transmitted to the senate yesterday afternoon by the secretary of war, together with a letter of transmittal by Gov. Taft, in whose charge the document was given. The memorial was adopted at an extraordinary session of the federal party held in Manila in November. It sets forth that the performance of that obligation of the treaty of Paris which gave the United States congress authority to fix the status of the Philippine islands has been deferred to this time because of the attack of the Filipinos upon the sovereignty of the United States, an act brought about, the memorial says, through a misunderstanding and not through hatred of the American sovereignty. The memorial proper is divided into two parts. The first of these is a petition for annexation and a presentation of the form of government desired. In this sub-division the federal party sets forth that it has made an exhaustive study of both the Filipinos and the Americans and concludes that from the mass of data collected it is "the intention of the two peoples that they should never be disunited." The memorial announces as principles for this union the formation of "a more perfect union, establishment of justice, the insurance of domestic tranquility, promotion of the general welfare and the securing of the blessings of liberty." The memorial then proceeds: "To make of the Philippines a colony of the United States, or to grant independence to the Philippines would be to hand the islands over to disorder and anarchy, to destruction and to chaos. Philippine independence with or without a protectorate, means a holding of power by all the terrible elements which predominate, and would predominate still for some years, until the anger of Filipinos toward Filipinos shall have been completely calmed, education become general and the fanaticism we have inherited from Spain exiled. Federation or annexation would settle all these difficulties by concentrating the interest of the Filipino people upon education and labor." The memorialists then "pray a declaration by the congress of the United States to the effect that the Philippine islands, as they are described in the treaty of Paris and the subsequent convention with Spain, are an integral part of the United States, the said Philippine islands constituting a territory with the rights and privileges which the constitution of the United States grants to the other territories, such as that of becoming a state of the Union." The second part of the memorial sets forth the aspirations of a social and economical character.

Full Discussion of Southern Congress Representation by Judge Crumpacker and Others. Resolution Offered to Reduce It in States Where Suffrage Is Unconstitutionally Restricted--Cannon and Reeves, of Illinois, and Southern Members Opposed It -- Action Is Postponed. Washington, D. C., Feb. 13. After a debate of three hours over the advisability of beginning an investigation into the election laws of the different states and into the charges that the right of suffrage is unconstitutionally abridged in some instances, the caucus of the republican members of the house on the 3d postponed action for one week. Great latitude in debate was permitted and there was a full and free discussion of the matter in hand. Representative Crumpacker, of Indiana, who had circulated the call for the caucus, on behalf of those interested, offered a resolution to the effect that the committee on rules should report a resolution as a substitute for those now pending before it, providing that the speaker should appoint a select committee of 11 to investigate whether the right to vote of any male citizen of any state is denied or abridged by the constitution and laws of any state, except for crime, and if such is found to be the fact, the committee shall report, by bill or otherwise, such measure as may be necessary to place the representation of such state in the house of representatives upon a constitutional basis. Mr. Crumpacker spoke at some length in support of his resolution, which, he said, he believed met with the approval of those who had supported the movement and was acceptable to them. He said there was no doubt that the constitution imposed upon the house of representatives the duty, as well as giving it authority, to restrict representation of states where suffrage was unconstitutionally restricted. Mr. Tayler, of Ohio; Moody, of Massachusetts, and Dayton, of West Virginia, followed in a similar strain. They said they believed that the sentiment of their constituents was in favor of action at this congress. Mr. Moody, of North Carolina, was the first to oppose their solutions. He appealed to the republicans not to reduce the representation, which he said would solidify sentiment in the south to such an extent that no southern republican member could expect to be returned, but, on the other hand to adopt a federal election law which would give them an opportunity to secure the return of additional republican members. Mr. Blackburn, also of North Carolina, supported Mr. Moody. Mr. Morris, of Minnesota, followed with a vigorous speech in favor of the resolution, maintaining that the people of the north were not represented in the house in the same proportion that the people of the south were, and declaring that this state of affairs was an injustice to their constituents. It was the duty of the house, he declared, to do all it could in any direction to see that the constitution was maintained in all respects. Mr. Olmstead, of Pennsylvania, followed in a similar vein, and then Representative Cannon, of Illinois, chairman of the caucus, left the chair to speak against the resolution. Mr. Cannon's speech was a temperate one, and while he did not deny that something should perhaps be done in this direction, he pointed out to the caucus, in a detailed history of similar movements, that in no case had they come to anything, and reminded them of the fate of the "Force bill" and the house in which it had originated. Messrs. Gibson, of Tennessee, and Bartholdt, of Missouri, representing the caucus of southern republicans, spoke against the Crumpacker resolution and in favor of the federal election plan. After speeches by Mr. Morrill, of Pennsylvania, in favor of and Mr. Parker, of New Jersey, against the resolution, Mr. Reeves, of Illinois, proposed a postponement of action. He was supported by Delegate Rodey, of New Mexico, in a stirring speech, in which he pleaded with the caucus not to take hasty action in any event and urged them not to do anything which might imperil the seats of the southern republicans, who had such a hard time at best. Mr. Rodey was greeted with applause. Representative Payne, of New York, closed the speechmaking by counselling that the caucus consider the matter further before action, and on his motion it adjourned for a week. The leading men of the house do not appear to favor any action at this time, and it is possible that after further consideration of the question the caucus will decide that the time has not come to act. And these (republican congressmen who opposed proper action or counseled delay) are "the colored brother's friends" when seeking office for themselves or their friends. Let our newspapers notify these congressmen's Afro-American constituents of their conduct in the caucus. Make their future political road too "rocky" for them if possible. Grandfather Clause Beaten. Richmond, Va.—The constitutional convention by a vote of 31 to 30, defeated a suffrage plan offered, which contains the "grandfather clause." There are ten plans now pending, and votes will be taken daily until one is agreed upon that will eliminate the Afro-American vote of the state.

This is the Rockefeller plan, and will insure to the institute $25,000 yearly from this city. The meeting in the new Old South church on the 3d was in the interest of the Hampton and Tuskegee institutes, and the announcement from the lips of Dr. Frissell, of Hampton, so pleased the Rev. Dr. E. E. Hale, who was presiding, that he arose and after admitting that the announcement was indeed news to him, said that every one of the leading churches of the city, Catholic, Episcopal, Jewish, regardless of denomination or creed, ought to be subscribers in cash or through pledges for $1,000 each.

New York, Feb. 13.—A passenger train bound from Jersey City to Rahway, N. J., last night ran into a freight engine in the Pennsylvania Railroad Co.'s yards near Newark. The freight engine had passed out of a siding directly in front of the passenger train. George Hetzel, the engineer of the passenger train, was killed. He remained at his post after he had told his fireman to jump. He was crushed between the wrecked cab of his engine and the side of the boiler and was burned to death before he could be relieved. His fireman, E. R. Wilson, was severely cut and bruised in jumping. E. C. Jones, conductor of the train, was painfully hurt, as was Samuel Bolton, the baggage master. John Horn, engineer of the freight engine; Stephen Moore, the fireman, and Joseph Schaeffer, conductor of the freight, were severely injured. William Winter, another freight conductor, who was aiding in the rescue, was also injured. Theodore Ferris, of Jersey City, was sent to a saloon to get some stimulants for the injured. Carr. the saloon keeper, who had recently been robbed, thinking him a burglar, shot Ferris twice. Carr was arrested. A KENTUCKY TRAGEDY. Terrible Battle Between Officers and Mountaineers. Middlesboro, Ky., Feb. 13.—One of the worst battles ever fought in the Cumberland mountains, occurred Wednesday afternoon at Lee Turner's "blind tiger" saloon, four miles from here. The battle was between Turner's mountaineers, 20 in number, and 15 or more citizens of Middlesboro, who were sworn in as a posse to arrest Lee Turner. Turner owed Gills Colson some money and the latter had levied on his mules. Turner on Wednesday night by force took the mules away from Colson. In the fight that followed yesterday Charles Cecil, one of the Middlesboro officers, was killed, and John Doyle, another officer, was fatally wounded. Turner lost five men. His saloon was burned to the ground by the officers and five of his men perished in the flames. Turner was absent at the time of the battle, and is reported to be now at Mingo making preparations to flee from the country. Various rumors are rife, and it is impossible to secure the exact details and learn the exact number of men that met death. Prof. Pearson Resigns. Chicago, Feb. 13.—Prof. Charles W. Pearson, whose recent utterances against the infallibility of certain portions of the Bible occasioned wide comment in Methodist church circles, yesterday resigned as professor of English literature at Northwestern university. The resignation was voluntary. Prof. Pearson also asked for a letter of dismissal from the Methodist church. The letter was given, but afterwards recalled, as its possession would indicate that he was in good standing in the church. Adopted the Marconi System. London, Feb. 13.—At a meeting of the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. held here Wednesday it was announced that the directors of the company had insured the life of Mr. Marconi for £150,000.

Miss Ballard, formerly a school teacher at Cadiz, and now employed (the only Afro-American) by a copying concern in the Williamson block, entered the restaurant in that building and after being served was told that they "did not serve colored people and not to come again." Miss Ballard being a young lady of intelligence, culture and refinement, who always stands up for her rights, went again to the restaurant on Monday, accompanied by a white girl friend, who is employed by the same company, and after considerable worry and fuss on the part of the proprietor, was again served. Nothing was said to her, however, by the proprietor. Just prior to the waiter's serving the girls, he put on his hat and went out for a few minutes, evidently to consult a lawyer, who, no doubt, told him that there was a law against discrimination in public places. RAILS SPREAD: The train left Cleveland at 1 o'clock on time and the accident happened at 2 o'clock while the "flyer" was making full speed. The rear portion of the train was completely wrecked, the day coach, which was the last car of the regular portion of the train, and the private car of President Joseph Ramsey, of the Wabash and Wheeling & Lake Erie railroads, which was at the extreme end of the train, being tipped over. Many would have been killed but for the coolness and promptness of Engineer Matthew Shay. Increased Prices. Cincinnati, Feb. 13.—A called meeting of the American Woodstock association, manufacturers of rims, shafts, poles, spokes, and all kinds of vehicle stock, was held here yesterday. About 40 members were present. President B. F. Von Behre, of Evansville, Ind., presided. Those present were from most of the states of the middle west, the east not being represented. It was decided that the short supply of oak and hickory, the wood smost used in the trade, demanded an immediate increase in price of the finished products. Accordingly after much discussion, an increase of 15 per cent. was decided upon. Want New Organization: Chicago, Feb. 13.-The millers of the United States, represented by 35 delegates from state and sectional associations, met here yesterday and appointed a committee to draw plans for a permanent national organization. The committee w... report today, when the plan undoubtedly will be adopted, as all the delegates are of the opinion that such an organization is needed. A national association of millers already exists, but it is said to be too loose to be effective and the members have offered to withdraw from it or to suffer merger in the new organization. Revision Committee: Philadelphia, Feb. 13.—The Presbyterian revision committee yesterday declared the third and fourth articles of the new brief statement of faith for popular use and came to a final decision on the third article. This article touches on creation. The fourth article, on sin, will be again taken up to-day. The committee will then adjourn, and it will be necessary to hold another lengthy meeting to dispose of the remainder of the brief statement, which contains 16 articles or sections. WON A VICTORY. Venezuelan Revolutionists Capture a Gunbont--The Captain and Crew Are Prisoners. Willemstadt, Island of Curacoa, Feb. 13.—A schooner which communicated Tuesday with the Venezuelan revolutionary steamer Libertador, confirms the report that the latter sank the Venezuelan gunboat General Crespo, recently, near Cumarebo. The captain and crew of the Crespo are prisoners on board the Libertador. "On board the Libertador, off Cumarebo, Venezuela, Feb. 7.—We left the vicinity of Curacoa at 4 o'clock this morning, going southward. We were informed by a schooner that Veneuelan government warships were off La Vela de Coro and we headed south at full speed. At 2 o'clock in the afternoon we met the steamer Crespo, before Cumarebo, and she immediately prepared for the fight. To our summons to surrender, which was accompanied by a blank cannon shot, the Crespo replied by opening fire on us, to which the Libertador answered by directing the fire of the heavy guns and rapid-fire guns on the Crespo. The latter kept up firing for a time but her shells did not strike us, while our shells inflicted serious damage to her. After half an hour's fighting, the Crespo hoisted the white flag and surrendered unconditionally. A Sympathetic Strike. Providence, R. I., Feb. 13. The lockout in the five mills of the American Woolen Co., at Olneyville, due to a strike of 150 weavers against the so-called double loom system, was followed yesterday by a general sympathetic strike of the weavers, numbering about 2,000. The lockout began February 3. Tuesday the directors of the company decided to end the lockout, but in announcing this action nothing was said of any consideration having been given to the alleged grievance of the double loom system. The weavers in meeting decided that while all other department employees should return to work, the weavers should not go in.

Removes all trouble and estrangements, unites the separated 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 must test assured you will gain facts about nonsense she will be coveted upon affairs of Life, Love, Courtship, 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 wills, divorce and speculation is valuable and reliable. She reads your destiny—good or bad; she withholds nothing. 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 manner in manner, and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children: young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts and intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all; do not let silly religious scruples prevent your consulting. Macmane 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. Render, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter 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 Medium while the successful people, in all probabilities, have the right 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 and evil influences. She has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success.

AMERICAN ‘SILVERSMITHS Are Preparing to Invade the English Market with Their Artistic Wares. American manufacturers of silver- ware are preparing to invade the En- glish markets. ‘The originality and artistic finish of the American prod. uct has been recognized in the Brit: ish Isles as elsewhere, but without the English hall mark as a guarantee of the purity of the silver it was im- possible to make any headway. One difficulty in the way was that the hall mark could not be affixed after the goods were finished, as the tests for purity would disfigure them. To obviate this the manufacturers made arrangements to ship the sil- verware to Engiand in a partly fin. ished condition, have the hall mark affixed and sent back to the United States for the final stages of manu- facture, after which it is to be shipped to England for sale. Inquiry was made at the treasury department waether or not duty would be assessed on the goods when brought back from England, and the department has ruled that no duty will be levied, as the silverware would not be considered as having been advanced in manufacture within the meaning of the law by the af. fixing of the hall mark. ‘Woy Flying Machines, ‘The newest thing in children’s toys is a flying machine. The fact that it cannot fly doesn’t affect either its name or its popularity. “When they can make a toy fly,” said some one sagely, “the time will be not far dis- tant when we shall be taking wing.” The little machine is modeled upon the Santios-Dumont affair that actu ally did go around the Eiffel tower in midair, but the diminutive speci- men requires a string of wire to make it travel. Some shops exhwit- ed earlier in the season a top fly- ing machine, which, inflated by gas, really made an independent aerial flight, but this was finally given up as unsafe. Make-believe, therefore, must still play a part in the successes of the nursery flying machine, as ‘it does very largely in that of the grown-up affair. Resourcefulness of Nature. Now that it has been found im- possible to make paper of a good quality out of seaweed the paper mill proprietors will know what to fall back upon when the forests are ex- hausted, says the Chicago Tribune. Nature is a most generous mother, THE KANSAS PEOPLE ARE IN LOVE WITH WESTERN CANADA. They Sey the Land There Is the Fin« est on Earth, A great number of delegates have been influenced through the agency of Mr. J. 8S. Crawford, the Canadian Government representative at Kan- sas City, to visit Western Canada, and whether from Missouri or Kansas the story is always the same—they are pleased with the new country being opened up. Isaac H. Levagood writes from Didsbury, Alberta, as follows: “I met three delegates from Kan- sas yesterday at Dnisbury, and took them home with me and _ took them out in the afternoon and showed them some of the fin- est land that lays on top of God's green earth. They are more than pleased with this country. They stayed with me last night, this morn- ing I took them to Didsbury, and they went on Nort. When they come back they are coming to my place and I am going to help thent to run some lines and they are going to locate in sight of my house. ‘There have been over 1,200 acres of land ‘changed hands here in our neighbor- “hood this spring. When I located here last Fall I was the furthest back of any of the settlers, to-day I am in the centre of the settlement. We have 36 children. that are of school age in our district, and we will have our school district organized next month, when we will proceed to build our school house. The longer we stay here the better we like the country, that is the way with everybody here they all seem to be satisfied and do ing well. I have talked with a great many men here and they told me that they had less than $50 when they go! here, and to-day they have got 16¢ acres of good land and five or siz hundred dollars’ worth of stock Crops are looking fine here, I think this will be a good winter whea' country. One of my neighbors.has mall piece and it looks fine.” . LAUDS WASHINGTON. ‘Prof. Triggs Says That as Writer Mle ? ian saat lan ek ie oho ame If University of Chicago students act upon the advice given them the other day by Prof. Oscar L. Triggs, they. will put aside their books on fiction and history, such as those written by Stevenson and Macaulay, and when they want prose works of the highest literary type they will turn to the writings of George Wash- ington. In a lecture to one of his classes Prof. Triggs declared that thought and not rhetoric gave the value to a literary production, He said: “In my opinion, the value and the effectiveness of prose, like that of poetry, depends upon the contents and not upon the form in which the matter appears. I believe that action and experience would give a writer's work a higher place that rhetoric and expression. On these grounds I would place Washington and Benja- min Franklin upon a higher literary plane than Stevenson or Macaulay. “Washington wrote but little, but what he did write is based upon knowledge gained by actual experi- ence. Therefore, it has practical qualities such as the Works of Steven- gon and Macaulay wholly lack. Stev- enson was a mere rhetorician, and his writings lack the foree which is con- tained in the works of Washington.” Prof. William D. MacClintock, of the department of English, attacked the practice of theater going when indulged in as a pastime. He, de- clared that the theater goer should expect to be benefited by patronizing the theater, and should choose those operas and dramas which will be of didactic value. In referring to the stage of the time of Shakespeare he said it filled the place occupied by “yellow” journalism to-day by at- tempting to satisfy the more de- ‘praved tastes of man. A Criticism. The following delicious criticism appeared recently in a London fash- fon journal; “Miss L—— has more than common grace and grip.
