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. "Dog Eat Dog"—Tillman and McLaurin's fight in the senate. It does begin to look as if Roosevelt's dinner to Booker T. Washington is about all the race is to get from the present administration. President Roosevelt seems to have discontinued the appointment to offices of Afro-Americans. He did not make a very liberal start, either. What has become of that republican caucus decision to pass the Dick-Crumpacker resolution calling for the appointment by the lower house of congress of a disfranchisement investigating committee? Our confreres should keep up the fight against the senate's confirmation of the nomination of the self-confessed lyncher, Geo. R. Koester, as internal revenue collector of South Carolina. President Roosevelt may thus be made to see the wisdom of withdrawing the nomination. THE LYNCHING OF LOUIS WRIGHT. An Afro-American citizen, Louis Wright, traveling with a minstrel troupe under the laws of the country in company with other members, was set upon in the streets of New Madrid, Mo., by a vicious mob of prejudiced white ruffians who first threw snowballs. Then missiles, concealed in snowballs. The parties thus assailed undertook to protect themselves and at once trouble ensued. The crowd increased rapidly and the victims were hounded and pursued to their hall. Thus enclosed they felt themselves safe against further assault. But the men-hating demons, ever ready to abuse a man wearing a dark skin, assembled at the hall, resolved on further mischief. They sought the musician of the company and administered to him a merciless beating. Louis Wright, anxious to protect his comrade, sought to quell the disturbance by firing off his pistol. But this only enraged the mob. No one was injured, not a single person, yet it was determined to find the man who dared to use intimidation. The Afro-Americans had repaired to their traveling car. Louis Wright was identified as the man who fired the pistol. Regardless of all law and without the shadow of protection, Louis Wright was hung in the very sound of the church-going bells. A peaceable and quiet citizen is murdered as though he were not other than a brute. And this is Christian America, where adorable justice sits enthroned, the guiding light of our Christian civilization. NOT FOR ITALY ALONE, BUT FOR OUR COUNTRY. The government of Italy, through its embassador, has under the international law asked the secretary of state to give reasons why the United States does not assume active steps to prevent the lynching of European subjects. President Roosevelt has signified his intention to recommend the adoption of a law giving the national government jurisdiction over all cases of lynching. The president will be in duty bound to require such legislation as shall apply to every case of lynching known to the American government. The law that offers protection to foreign subjects must afford the same to our own citizens. There can be no caviling over a matter of such vital concern to the nation. It would be base cowardice for a brave government to make concessions upon a demand that seems almost peremptory and make no provision to shield itself from the barbarous practice. The onlooking world has been too long shocked at the inhuman spectacle that has won the attention of our Christian civilization. Can the president so far forget himself and his country as to offer to succor others, yet will not save his own? The law is our safeguard, it is our shield and sure anchor from every possible danger. It was our strongest bulwark in the formation of our Union and it was on account of the sacredness of the law that Hamilton and Jefferson waged their strongest fight for its maintenance and supremacy. Loyalty to the principles of international law has stamped the seal of amity and peace among nations. Americans are not less wise touching their highest and first obligation to themselves. The integrity and pledge of the nation demand that what all along has been a matter of the highest duty must now be acted upon and carried out in the name of common justice. Italy demands the passage of a law that shall save her citizens from mob law and violence. Let our government in the courage of true manliness rise in the majesty of her might and strength and assert her rightful authority and against every unjust encroachment upon her laws. Foreign nations are a secondary matter compared with the pressing need of self preservation. By arbitration nations may reconcile each other in their differences. But the curse of colorphobia has almost paralized the national arm; has hampered the best aspirations of the people in their desire to preserve the peace and dignity of their loved country, until the term civil law seems to have no more weight than that of mob law. Let it be hoped that in this new proposition now before the people of this country, a law, far-reaching, broad, beneficent and just shall be adopted that shall apply to every branch of the constitution and cover every case of lynching. IT IS QUITE POSSIBLE. Spain has long since felt the shock of riotous feuds and insurrection and what happens in Spain is quite possible in our country. Who dares deny the fact? Emboldened by long patience and endurance, and a seeming timidity as well on the part of the government, bad men at home or abroad will not hesitate to venture in the perpetration of deeds of defiance and blood. Our government today is undergoing an experience never before known in its history. Gradually, yet most surely, the coils of an intestine foe are being fastened upon the strong arm of the nation. Unused to mob violence within the two centuries of its existence, our government now folds its arms upon the most revolting crimes ever yet known to the world. It may be that within the past few years some thousands of Afro-Americans have been lynched and murdered contrary to law, but these acts are but the fruits of a training school which eventually must reap a terrible harvest. History repeats itself. Human nature is the same the world over. Spain has her system of government, we have ours, but imperfection is written upon all finite things. If we but heed the admonitions of national duty, if we would hear the warnings of enlightened experience, we may profit by the example of current events and thus escape inevitable retribution. But if we shall remain content and at hearts' ease in the face of the present alarming condition of affairs, in the presence of violated law and the ghastly scenes of human slaughter and sacrifices, then the atonement must come in the face of an overwhelming humiliation when the nations of the earth shall mock us in our overthrow and pity us in our shame BEN TILLMAN'S LAST SHAME. Coming from the lower class of the southern whites, "Hon." Ben Tillman leaves no doubt in the minds of the people of his conduct as a masquerader. He has about played his part and like Brooks and Keith must hide himself from public notice. Never on any occasion did the man utter more striking truth as when addressing his fellow senators on one occasion, he remarked that he felt a little out of place. But indeed he has been out of his place from the time he entered the senate, and it has been a misfortune to South Carolina that a man of such small calibre and vulgar mien should be imposed upon the country. If he has said or done a single great thing since he has been in the senate, it has never been on record. On the contrary, it is in evidence that his only hobby has been his continual harping against Afro-Americans. He has allowed no opportunity to pass without getting in a kick or a blow against the Afro-American. He dared to justify ballot box stuffing and mob violence and in turn has asked "What are you going to do about it?" In all of his native boorishness, he boasted that lynching and burning Negroes was a necessary expediency in order to assure white supremacy. To the horror and astonishment of the northern people he invaded this section, hurling bolts of wrath and defiance in the very teeth of the government. Ill grained and hilarious in his drunken spree against the Negro, he conceived himself to be in a barroom rather than in the United States senate. Beside himself, that he has won a promotion so August and grand, he has been talking through his hat and in unbridled audacity, spitting insult and abuse in the face of his superiors with no blush of shame upon his cheek. In vain has he sought prominence, while he enjoyel a sort of cheap notoriety at the expense of a poor and persecuted race. Merciless and unscrupulous he was never so happy at any time as when in knavish impudence he was urging the persecution and degradation of Afro-Americans. The unparalleled indignity and disgrace which he brought upon the United States senate mark him and his kind as being unworthy a seat in the senate chamber. Had his behavior been that of an Afro-American when he made his fierce and cruel assault upon Senator McLaurin, he would at once have demanded the annihilation of black men under our government. Mentally unbalanced, he defied the senate and has gone so far as to defy the government itself. Like a coward he disclaims dueling upon the ground that the practice has become obsolete in America, yet the entire public recognizes the fact that the best thing he can do is to go in some backway and hang himself and thus save the country and the white race the further shame and humiliation which he is so likely to bring upon them. As though he were king, emperor, or the Almighty himself, he offers himself as the mouthpiece of the south, while the cartoons given of him among his own people afford the best evidence of the hearty contempt in which he is everywhere held, both north and south. Fully insensible of his own debauchery and of the unspeakable disgrace and shame that he has brought upon himself, his constituents and fellow senators, he spits out the vials of his wrath because he was asked to decline an invitation to attend the reception given Prince Henry of Prussia by the president. Enraged that his name has been scratched from the list of the invited guests, he whines that he has been abused and insulted for no cause. The truth is most apparent that Ben Tillman ought to be expelled from the senate. LIFE IS ENDED. Ex-Gov. Altgeld Dies at a Hotel in Joliet, Ill. Joliet, Ill., March 13.—Ex-Gov. John P.

Strong Resolutions-Numerous Social and Personal Items of Interest Anti-Saloon League. CLARK'S FINE PLEA. Attorney for Young Mayo Made a Most Eloquent Argument for Mercy —Prosecutor, Spectators and Even Jurors Congratulated Him at Its Close. One of the ablest and most pathetic arguments ever made to a jury in Cuyahoga county was that made by Hon. W. T. Clark last week Wednesday afternoon in the Griffin Mayo murder case. When Mr. Clark concluded the scene was one seldom witnessed in a temple of justice. Assistant Prosecutor Snider was the first to congratulate the attorney for the defense. "It was a great argument and I could not help congratulating him," said Mr. Snider to the Daily World. "It was a fine plea for sympathy. Seldom has a murder case been more ably defended." Attorneys and spectators alike shook the hand of Mr. Clark and praised his masterly address. Some of the jurors even pressed the hand of the murderer's attorney, and several whispered words of praise as they passed his seat. Mr. Clark in the course of his address to the jury said: "For lust of gold men are permitted to overload a building," said he. "The floor gives way and men and young women are hurled to their death or frightfully injured. True, the grand jury is investigating, but those men will not be punished. While the entire detective force is working to send this epileptic boy to the electric chair, these men can walk the streets without fear. Gentlemen of the jury, before you send that boy into the valley of the shadow of death, let the beauty of your manhood burst out in sweeter music than the electric chair. Save that boy who came into the world with a mist surrounding his mind. Put him in the reformatory. Take him by the hand and lead him out of the valley of the shadow of death, instead of having his blood spattering in your hearts. Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy." — Cleveland Daily World. Homeseekers' Excursions via Pennsylvania Lines.

Altgeld died in the Hotel Munroe Wednesday morning at 7:09 o'clock. He had been unconscious since midnight. Mr. Altgeld was the principal speaker at a pro-Boer mass meeting Tuesday night in the Joliet theater. Just at the close of his speech a sudden dizziness seized him, and he was assisted from the stage. The meeting proceeded, the audience not realizing what had happened. Mr. Altgeld was taken to the door of the theater where several vomiting spells seized him. Physicians were hastily summoned and Mr. Altgeld was carried to the hotel across the street. He retained consciousness and urged the newspapermen to keep the affair quiet for fear of alarming his wife. Shortly before midnight he became unconscious. He remained in this condition until death. John P. Altgeld was born in Prussia in 1848, and came to this country when a child, and as soon as he was old enough, enlisted in the service for the defense of his adopted country and bore the part of a true soldier in the closing days of the civil war. He was an able lawyer, a distinguished judge, a man of strong convictions and always courageous in giving them utterance. COMPLETE TIEUP: Thousands of Boston Teammasters Are on Strike. Wikimedia Commons Thousands of Boston Teamsters Are on a Strike--Wharves Are Choked. Boston, March 11.—The strike of the freight handlers of this city, which threatens to involve 10,000 men, began Monday. The Team Drivers' union, embracing about 6,000 men, led off. Other unions followed. The strike grows out of the Brine Transportation Co.'s trouble with its teamsters, which began several weeks ago but was precipitated by the refusal on Saturday of members of the Freight Handlers' unions to take care of merchandise carted by non-union teamsters employed by the Brine Co. Along the water front the effect of the strike was most marked. The longshoremen, not having stopped work, promptly began unloading vessels which docked Sunday, and soon the wharves were choked with merchandise. In sympathy with the freight handlers about 50 per cent. of the delivery, checking and receiving clerks on the New York, New Haven & Hartford and the Boston & Albany roads did not go to work. Boston, March 12.—The second day of the great strike of organized labor against the demands of railroad and steamship companies that merchandise delivered at freight depots by the R. S. Brine Transportation Co. be not discriminated against, found large additions to the ranks of the strikers. Nearly 6,000 union men were ordered out yesterday, bringing the grand total of idle men up to about 16,000, with the prospect of still greater increase. One of the most important developments of the day was the ordering out of the longshoremen at the docks of the Philadelphia and Metropolitan steamship companies, in consequence of which vessels of those lines were compelled to depart with only partial cargoes, while the wharves are partially filled with the freight which the men refused to handle. The members of the General Teamsters' union, comprising 1,400 brick, sand, lime and cement teamsters, also went out, which virtually ties up the building trades by depriving them of material with which to work. The state board of arbitration had before it President Cox and the strike committee of the Allied Freight Transportation Council, but no way of settlement could be agreed upon. This committee also waited upon Mayor Collins and he promised his best efforts to effect an understanding between the parties at issue. Deeming the situation sufficiently grave to warrant his taking such action, Mr. Collins sent a telegram to Hon. M. A. Hanna, at Washington, asking that the National Civic Federation, of whose executive committee Mr. Hanna is chairman, should interest itself in the matter and endeavor to effect a settlement by arbitration. Labor unions having a membership of over 6,000 men voted last night to strike. Boston, Mass., March 13.—With 20,000 men idle, their ranks likely to be greatly swelled by sympathetic votes of the Building Trades Council and the Boston Central Labor union, which meet to-night, and the entire city beginning to suffer from the effects of conjected traffic, the only ray of light visible is the hope that the conference of business interests which has been arranged for to-day may lead to a settlement of the strike. This conference, which is due in a large measure to the influence of Gov. Crane, was arranged late yesterday afternoon at a meeting of representatives of the Boston Chamber of Commerce, the Boston Associated Board of Trade and the Boston Merchants' association, with the state board of arbitration. The railroad company against which the strike is chiefly directed, the New York, New Haven & Hartford, shows no inclination to ask for interference by the National Civic Federation and reiterates what it has said from the first, that its duties as a common carrier are defined by law and that it is compelled to handle all freight delivered to it, whether by union or non-union teams, and that it has no option in the matter. This position, if adhered to by the company may result in the refusal of the federation to interfere in the quarrel as it desires a request from both sides before taking up the matter. Following the conferences with the mayor and the governor came other meetings of the strikers. A committee of the Boston Merchants' association and labor representatives met without result save that the labor men declared that the strike would involve 80,000 or 90,000 men if a settlement was not reached. The strike of coal teamsters was one of the most aggravating features of the day, and its effect was quickly felt at hotels, restaurants and places having accommodations for only a limited supply of coal. Coal dealers were kept busy answering appeals from anxious customers. PRINCE HENRY. He Sails to Germany Very Much Pleased with His Visit to This Country. New York, March 12.—Prince Henry of Prussia sailed for Germany on board the steamer Deutschland yesterday. The prince breakfasted early and about 10 o'clock began to receive official farewell visits, including representatives of Germany in this country and those of the United States government. Mayor Low, of New York, was also a caller and the prince, in bidding him farewell, gave a hint that he had some intention of returning to America for a second visit. The Deutschland sailed at 3:45. As she moved away from the pier, the cheering was continuous. The prince appeared on the bridge and bowed. All down North river the passing tugs and craft of every description gave the great liner and her distinguished passenger a noisy sendoff: At the Battery a great crowd cheered as the vessel steamed on down the bay. Forts Wadsworth and Hamilton fired salutes which were answered by the Deutschland's whistle, and the garrison at Fort Wadsworth lined up on the bluff until the steamer had passed out into the lower bay. Washington, March 13.—The following cablegrams were made public yesterday: Wilhelmshaven, March 12, 1902:—President of the United States of America, Washington: Now that my brother has left the hospitable shore of the United States, homeward bound, I feel it a pleasing duty to express to you how deeply grateful I, and the whole of the German people feel, for the splendid hospitality and the cordiality of the reception which was accorded to Prince Henry by all classes of the American people. My outstretched hand has been met by you with a firm, manly and solid grip. May heaven bless our relations with peace and good will between the two great nations. My best compliments and wishes to Miss Alice. WILLIAM, I. R. Washington, March 12, 1902.—Emperor William, Wilhelmshaven: Your brother's visit to this country has accomplished much in showing the depth of the kindly feeling which exists between the two nations. It has been most fortunate in every way, and I trust you will permit me to congratulate you on the admirable manner in which he has borne himself. He has won the genuine and hearty sympathy and regard of all with whom he has been brought in contact. We have welcomed him for his own sake, and we have welcomed him still more heartily as the representative of yourself and of the mighty German people. I thank you in the name of the American people for what you have done, and I thank you personally in addition for the gracious form which your courtesy took. THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Successor to the A. P. A. New York, March 13.—Frank J. Batcheller, of Boston, chairman of the national committee of the American Minute Men, has issued a call for a meeting of the committee to be held in Boston Wednesday, May 21. The purpose is to perfect plans for thorough organization and for an aggressive campaign in every state in the Union for the election of members of congress and other officials. Mr. Batcheler says that the organization of the American Minute Men is the successor to the A. P. A., which has passed out of existence. The organization, it is stated, has already taken up legislation in Massachusetts and later will conduct campaigns in New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois, Wisconsin, Ohio, Michigan and other states. NICARAGUA ROUTE. Senate Committee on Isthmian Canal Washington, March 13.—The senate committee on Isthmian canals, has decided by a vote of 7 to 4 to report the Hepburu bill providing for the construction of an isthmian canal via the Nicaraguan route. The action of the committee was taken at a called meeting held during the afternoon and came after a brief report by Senator Morgan, chairman of the committee, detailing the result of a conference with Secretary Hay as to the status of diplomatic negotiations with the Central American republics concerning the canal. He stated that the secretary had told him that there are no negotiations in progress between the United States and Colombia concerning the Panama route and that the new minister from Colombia had not even presented his credentials, but that on the other hand the representatives of this country and those of Nicaragua and Costa Rica had been in consultation and had agreed upon practically all the points to be covered in concession treaties, nothing really being left in that connection but to put the agreements in writing. The Hepburn bill authorizes the president to acquire territory for right of way for a canal from Costa Rica and Nicaragua; directs the construction of a canal of sufficient capacity to accommodate the largest ships from Greytown, on the Atlantic, via Lake Nicaragua, to Brito, on the Pacific, under the supervision of the secretary of war; authorizes surveys of the harbors at the two ends of the route; guarantees the use of the canal to vessels of Costa Rica and Nicaragua and appropriates $10,000,000 for beginning the work.

Coleridge Taylor Choral Society Proposes to Do—A Clevelander for Tenor. Washington, D. C.—This society, organized under the stimulus of a proposed visit here of the eminent Afro-English composer, S. Coleridge Taylor, of London, for whom the society is named, has decided to sing "Hiawatha," a cantatta, Mr. Taylor's masterpiece, at its first concert in May at one of the theaters. "Hiawatha" is a musical setting for a large chorus and orchestra, with appropriate solos, of the beautiful poem written by Longfellow. It has been sung with great success by a number of choral societies both here and in England. The choruses of "Hiawatha" are to be rendered by 200 voices. The chorus is now rehearsing regularly every Tuesday evening at Lincoln Memorial temple. The board of managers and the different committees are composed of our leading men and women here. A Cleveland, Harry A. Williams, a tenor, has been recommended to the society by Hon. H. C. Smith, editor of The Gazette.

Dresses of thin, transparent materials will be trimmed as they were last season with Valencinnes insertion and lace. White pique shirt-waists are among the first to be worn in the early spring. The newest are of a light weight and fine cord, and are made quite simply, with a cluster of tucks at each side of the front. Belts of both plain and ribbed black velvet will be worn with spring woolen gowns. Such belts are stylish and may be worn with spring gowns of any color or material. The prettiest belts are made with a slight dip in the middle of the front. For hard general wear a spring suit of black, navy, brown or Oxford gray cheviot will give general satisfaction. One of smooth cloth is more dressy in effect, but not so suitable for all sorts of weather. The skirts of such suits should be made to clear the ground, and lined with percale if silk cannot be afforded. The jackets should be neatly lined and made comfortably large so that they will slip on easily over all kinds of waists. —February Ladies' Home Journal. New York City—Bishop Potter, who invited Booker T. Washington to dine with him a short time before President Roosevelt entertained him at the White House, is now being bothered by a few prejudiced fools of the south. He has received a few telegrams from below Mason and Dixon's line. "They said," said the Bishop. "that they would have no desire to receive me in their homes. Now, when I go south, I shall go, to Tuskegee." Bishop Potter praised President Roosevelt for his action in entertaining Washington. This every gentleman and lady does. Nashville, Tenn.—Meharry Medical college of Waldon university, which is in its 27th year, graduated its largest class on February 26.

Boyd, of this city, is possibly its most active supporter. Letters Arrived to Late. Our regular letters from Troy, Findlay and Ravenna arrived a day too late this week for insertion in this issue.

Brown was defeated for township trustee, owing, in a large degree, to the lack of energy of the Afro-American voters.

Can be consulted on all affairs of life. Business. Love and Marriage a specialty. Every mystery revealed, also, of absent, deceased and living friends. Removes all objections to employment and unmarried and causes speedy marriages. $1,000 challenge to any medium who can exceed her in her startling revelations of the past, present and future events of one's life. Remember. she will not for any price flatter you; you may rest assured you will gain facts without difficulty. She is the 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, death or 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 sweetheart will be true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR FUTURE will be written in an honest, clear and plain manner, and in a dead trance. You would know how to success of their husbands and children; your eyes 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. Macame is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people 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 alright, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the very end 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 been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells and civil influences. She has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success. For advice by letter $1.00. All letters must contain stamps. MRS. M. B. MARTH, 246 West 31st Street, NEW YORK CITY, N. Y. Hours: 10 A. M. to 10 P. M. Sittings. Mention THE GAZETTE J.

The modern idea is only the evolution of this toy, substituting a motor and propeller for the string. The problem is threefold, 1. To get-a surface strong enough to support ong pound per square foot. 2. To get a’surface which is stable. 3. To get a surface which will offer 80 little resistance to forward motion that but little power is needed to drive it. ‘ | The first problem seems to be sat- isfactorily answered by the Blue Hill box kite constrnetion. ‘This kite, built in tae fOr a truss, is capa- ble of standing a pressure of _ five pounds per square foot and hardly any flying machine would be required to stand such a pressure. Kites are held to the ground and thus feel a pressure equgl to that of the actual velocity of the wind; but when a fly- ing machine leaves the ground and loses its first inertia there exists for it but one wind, and that is the wind of its own making. To illustrate. The resistance to the movement ¥f a steamer is dependent upon its speed relative to the water in which it floats and is independent of whether it floats in a* strong cur- rent or in calm water. To fly in a wind which is moving over the earth at the rate of 100 miles an hour in- volves no more pressure on the ma- chine than if it was calm, and there- fore the supporting surface need only be made strong enough to stand the pressure necessary to support the weight at a given ratio of surface to weight, which in this case is one pound to one square foot. Since, then, these kites above spoken of can stand a pressure of five pounds per square foot, I claim their factor of safety is sufficiently large to prevent their gollapse under any air strain to which a flying machine would be subject. ‘The question now is what is the fu- ture for flying machines? There is no question in my mind, says a writer in Modern Culture, that, like the balloon, they will never com- pete with modern methods of trans- porting passengers or freight. Jn comparison with a navigable balloon they will be very cheap both to build and to run, and yery compact, and therefore will be used for individial transportation, perhaps, as the auto- mobile is. They will, I think, perform over long distances and % otherwise inaccessible points the same work that the motor bicycle will do on the aM ¥ The Need of Fresh Air By ELLA HEPWORTH DIXON. SBS: MONEE EEE OSD DN Rea eT ee WATER. Our modern society people would feel forever scandalized should they miss their morning bath, but they will go for days at a time without inflating their lungs with the keen bracing air of out of doors. Their homes are clesed tightly against invasion by any chance breath of invigorating, life-giving out-of-door atmosphere. They dance and make merry in rooms laden‘with the poison of carbonic acid gas, and into which such a thixg as a draught is never allowed to penetrate. They fight against any intrusion of fresh air, and yet when the ladies find their complexions and physique fading away they resort, not to the remedy nature has provided, and of which they know nothing, but to patented cosmetics and face powders. NOR ARE THE SOCIETY FOLKS ALONE IN THIS UT- TER DISREGARD OF ONE ©F NATURE'S FIRST LAWS. It is to be found wherever the populance congregates within doors. Theaters, churches and public buildings of all kinds are proverbial for their lack of ventilation. We go to cliurch, and though we may freeze for lack of heat, we almost suffocate for lack of the pure ozone of out of doors. We sit through the play at an illy-ventilated thea- ter and wonder at the headaches of the following morning. Even in the homes of the very poor are the windows and doors kept tightly closed lest that which nature intended for the benefit of our health might enter. It is only those of the unfortunates who must spend their days in hospitals or prisons who receive the benefit to be derived from proper ventilation. They, alone, of almost all the peoples of the northern climes receive the benefit of both a bath for the lungs and a beth for the body; the former.even more necessary to our geod health tnan the latter.

Nevertheless its im- portance to the human race will be tremendous. THE CARSON SALLY. Worst of All Servants, But in Great Demand in the Homes of Ne- ; vwada's Capital. | Carson, the capital city of Nevada, is probably the only city in the coun- | try where the “hired girl” is a squaw, The eastern tourist is apt to think that the western Indian is a myth. /At Denver he will see him only at ‘the annual festival. In New Mexico and Arizona he will find him truly. but he is the Pueblo Indian living in his own ancient village. The In- ‘dian of the plains, the hero of fron: tier romance, i8 secluded on the res: ervation. But at Carson he is an all- pervading element of the landscape, says the Washington Star. In. the mountains round about Carson. live ‘the remnants of three tribes, the Piutes, the Washoes and the Shoshones. They are not upon any reservation, nor do they receive gov- ernment support. They are absolute. ly free, left in possession of these sterile uplands, which the white man does not want. Each day companies of them come down into Carson, and, swathed in bright blankets, sit, play- ing Piute poker upon every vacant lot. You will often see the squaws sewing there also, making garments ‘of turkey red and other gorgeous cot- ‘tons. The pappooses play about, the brilliant sun throws out the flaming -scatlet of the blankets and the rich coppery hues of their skin, “It is all wildly picturesque.

Naval Department Wondering If It Has Hight to Insist on Enlisted Man ’ wWndergoing Operation. Has an enlisted man in the navy or the marine corps the right to refuse to submit to a surgieal operation? The navy department, by Acting See- retary Darling, holds that he has not if the operation is not serious, but declines to lay down any rule for cases involving the loss of limb, in which a man’s life would be endan- gered. It recommends the. exercise of persuasion and diplomacy on the patient in serious eases, but in minor eases it decides that the man who refuses to be operated on may be court-martialed and punished. Inci- dentally, .e department has over- ruled Rear Admiral Louis Kempf, junior squadron commander on the Asiatic station, who refused to fet the surgeon operate on an unwilling patient. The department's decision extends only to enlisted men. No ruling has been made in the case of an officer, although a precedent was established by Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans, who drew a revolver on the surgeon who came to cut off his legs after he had been severely wounded in the battle of Fort Fisher, Ad- miral Evans kept his legs and_re- mained in the naval service, although he is quite lame. SOME WONDERFUL CROPS IN WESTERN CANADA. ‘The Territerial Government Reports Show Results Geyond Belief. Regina; Assineboia, Canada, January 0th.—At the Agricultural Statistics Branch of the Department of Agricul- ture for the Territories, reports are now being received from grain thresh- ers throughout the Territories, Ke statistical purposes. The reports are somewhat delayed this year, owing to the extensive crop and the delay in getting it threshed. The Départment of Agriculture is leading the way ina new departure, with regard to the collection of crop statistics. In the older provinces, crop estimates are based entirely on the opnion of per- sons interested in the grain business who ought to be, and no doubt are, well posted upon the probable yields. Still the reports are simply a matter of opinion, in which a mistake may easily be made. The Territorial De- partment, however, has adopted the system of returns of crops actually threshed, upon which to base their reports. The accuracy of the reports cannot, therefore, be gainsaid, for they represent a compilation of actual threshing results. In this connection, it might be mentioned that the De- partment fs organizing a system of growing crop returns, which will be in operation next summer. The infor- mation thus obtained, with estimated acreage, will be available for business men, bunks, railway companies, and other interests whichJhave to discount the future in making provision for the conduet of their business. The crop reports already to hand show some remarkable cases of ab- normal development. In the Regina district, many returns are given of crops of wheat running from 40 to 45 bushels to the acre. J. A. Snell, of Yorkton, threshed 28,000 bushels of oats from 450 acres, an average of 63 bushels per acre fora large acreage. W. R. Motherwell, of Abernethy, threshed 2,650 bushels of wheat from a 50 acre fleld, an average of 53 bush- els per acre. In the Edmonton district, T. T. Hutchings threshed 728 bushels of wheat from a ten-acre plot, an average of nearly 73 bushels per acre. S. Norman threshed 6,950 bushels of oats from 60 acres of land, an average of 116 bushels per acre. The publication of the actual yields of grain threshed will likely open the eyes of the people to the great capabil- ities of the western Canadian prairies. An Honored State.

It may be that the nose and throat are the oftenest affected by ¢a- tarrh,,but if this is so it is so only be- cause these parts are more exposed to the vicissitudes of the climate than the other parts of the body. Every organ, every duct, every cavity of the human body is liable to catarrh. A maltitude of ailments depend on ca- tarrh. This is true winter and summer. Catarrh causes many cases of chronic disease, where the victim has not the slightest suspicion that catarrh has any thing to do with it. ‘The following letter which gives the experience of Mr. A. C.
