ALL U.S. PRINTING TRADE STOCK COUNCIL CLEVELAND 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. O. yes, Uncle Mark is all right as far as the appointments go; through him and his influence the Negro got more offices and better offices than ever before. He had no hypocritical cant about the appointees, and the race will not forget him in the future.—Boston (Mass.) Guardian. Our good friend, Editor Trotter, was never more mistaken in his life. Just the opposite is true, as far as Hanna is concerned. No, those of the race who KNOW him, "won't forget him in the future." However much the white press and persons of that class may publicly felicitate themselves as a result of the belief that the Afro-American, south or north, or both south and north, regards Mark Hanna as his friend, they are very much mistaken and very foolishly "jollying" themselves. They are not misleading a single intelligent, honorable and loyal member of the race, either. The race's experience with Hanna and McKinley is entirely too recent and distressing to be forgotten, if forgiven in the case of the latter. HANNA IS NOT NOR NEVER WAS A TRUE FRIEND OF THE AFROAMERICAN! As far as we are personally concerned, this is no news to us, because we learned it long ago, as the result of years of personal knowledge and experience with him. A QUESTION. The following editorial note is from last Sunday's Plain Dealer, a local daily newspaper: Senator Tillman says a scallawag is a white man born in the south who has come to believe that the Negro is as good as he. That Senator Tillman doesn't like scallawags is plainly emphasized by his subsequent remark: "We know that there is no man so mean and despicable as a man who has sunk so low as that." The leopard may change its spots, but there is no hope of converting Tillman. President Roosevelt, "the FIRST man of the land," entertained Booker T. Washington, a Negro, at dinner at the White House several months ago, the former's wife and family being present. Subsequently the president withdrew from Tillman an invitation extended to dine with him, Prince Henry of Prussia, and others at the White House after Tillman's outrageous and most disgraceful attack in the United States senate upon his democratic colleague from their native state, South Carolina. When Roosevelt withdrew the invitation Tillman's one eye "snapped" and he whined and pouted like a "spoiled" child; then became abusive and insulting with the assistance of his nephew, another Tillman, governor of South Carolina. Mark you, all this because the man who dined a Negro refused to let him (Tillman) dine with him, and perchance use the same knives, forks, spoons, plates, etc. There being no question in the minds of intelligent people as to the "rediculosity" of color or class establishing the equality status of any citizen of this great country, my query is: How much better than himself does Tillman regard the Negro who dines with the president of the United States? Judging from the "howl" he and his South Carolina relatives delivered themselves of as a result of the president's withdrawal of that invitation to dine, it must be considerable. How inconsistent is Tillman and the average prejudiced person, white or black! THE RIGHT OF THE AFRO- AMERICAN TO A PLACE IN THE ARMY AND NAVY. The graduates of West Point and Annapolis are said to constitute a large official family and by the nature of their service are compelled to live together. Yet it is claimed that on account of which it would be wrong to admit Afro-Americans as students in the academies or as officers in the army, because it would be distasteful to the southern whites. The above claim is made not only by the southern press, but in not a few instances by northern journals. But such arrangement in our time must necessarily involve great embarrassment to the general government. Afro-Americans are to all intents and purposes citizens of the United States. They are bound and are entitled to bear arms. They cannot escape the responsibility of risking their lives in the cause of the republic and the nation would show itself too unmagnanimous and unjust to evade its high obligation. In time of national danger every American soldier is called to meet the common enemy, and in the struggle Americans stand and die for Americans. Then is it not superlative folly and does it not betray the basest ingratitude that in time of peace these very brothers in arms should return from the field of conflict to wrangle and dispute in regard to a racial difference? Brothers in time of war, the one becomes the enemy of the other for no other reason but that of complexional difference. Americans are known as the greatest people on earth, great in the arts of trade and commerce, great in achievements, in invention and discovery, great in our boast of free government, in our love of freedom and broad sense of justice to all men, but in practice we emulate the example of the poorest philosophers and the most consumate hypocrites that lived since the flood. We profess a faith in God which we abjure and we ignore the very record of our organic law, while at the same time we impose the most rigid penalties to enforce its demands. Nothing appears so ridiculous as that the American press and pulpit unite in holy protestation against the methods and customs of Oriental nations, deeming them uncivilized and unchristian, while in our own eyes we carry a beam which shocks mankind. Slavery was the curse of our government. It was long the bone of contention and it cursed every green thing in the land. It was unwilling to be reconciled unless it could control the entire country. Failing in this, it sought the overthrow of the nation and in its mad endeavor slavery died. But it left in its trail the malignant fruits of nearly two centuries' bearing. The mightiest evils from which we suffer to-day are the fruit of its planting. All our animosities, dissensions and discords are the outgrowth of that Upas tree. The Negro was its deadly victim in time of its reign and the friends of free government are alike its target. The good and the just are asked to do homage to this god of tyranny, and to bend the knee to its behest. In all the struggles of our country, in the Revolutionary war, in the Jackson war and in the great conflict between the states, Afro-Americans gave themselves on the side of the nation to rescue and to save. But the minions of slavery still live. Vindictive and unsatiated in its greed to vent its spleen and to strike when it can, it demands the exclusion of Afro-Americans from West Point and Annapolis as students and it demands that exclusion in the name of the very spirit which sought to wreck this union. "Ah," says one, "but Confederates and Federals are in share upon equal grounds." Be that even so, then it should not be forgotten that our government has widened its powers, has grown with its strength and in remembrance of all her loyal sons has extended to them the arm of welcome and made them beneficiary to every right and privilege under the law. Well does Col. T. W. Higginson ask, "Can we seriously mean that the mere fact of descent from those who fought to destroy the union gives the national right to monopolize position and promotion under the United States flag and that the descendants of the 178,975 colored soldiers who fought to save the union have no such right?" Every expediency comes within the pale of constituted authority and upon any ground of expediency it would be an outrage and robbery to deny Afro-Americans the right which is theirs. "MAJOR" TAYLOR ABROAD. America's Crack Cyclist Says He Will Retire After This Season-A "Wonder." New York City.—"Major" Taylor came to New York recently to renew his registration with the National Cycling association prior to his departure for Paris. He sailed this week. In registering Taylor asked to have again the same license number and card that he had last year, which was 13. He believes it to be his mascot and talked freely of his affairs, saying this will be his last year on the track. He said he is now only 24 years old and admitted that he probably would have his speed for a few years longer. When asked his reasons for quitting, he said: "The strain of continued training is telling on me. I train hard and conscientiously, you know, and I find it is wearing on my nerves. I had practically two seasons last year. Few appreciate what that means. There was no let up for me. I was in Paris on March 12 and then I came back here and went on the circuit and later rode at indoor meets. I will have pretty much the same thing this year and the strain is too great. Another reason for my quitting is that I want to get out of the game while I am on top and not wait till I begin to fail. I began without a cent. Now I have a house that I own in Worcester and a few thousand in the bank. If I can put a few thousand more away this year I shall be very well satisfied. If I can get a position and earn earn enough to keep me and my family and not touch the money I have saved I shall be content. Last year when I went to Europe I got a guarantee of $3,000 and had to pay my own expenses. This year I will have all my expenses paid and get $3,000 net to bring back with me. I shall not ride on Sundays." Bert Hazard is going with Taylor as rubber and assistant. Taylor does not know when he will have his first race abroad and only knows that he is to meet Jacqulin again and also Ellegard, who won the world's championship at Berlin last year. When in Europe last spring Taylor beat Ellegard in four races out of six. Taylor will return to America the last of June to ride on the National circuit here. He will use this year the same American made wheel that he did last year. That the method of advertising by hiring a crack rider to use their wheels does bring results to American makers was illustrated yesterday when a Japanese merchant who came here to buy a lot of bicycles to ship to the Flowery Kingdom said in the office of a trade paper that he was delighted because he had been able to make his full shipment of the wheel that Major Taylor rides. He said that he had previously decided to choose that make and it was only a question with him of getting as good terms as he could on some others and he had succeeded in doing so. He says they will be hot sellers in Japan because Taylor rides the same make. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MARCH 29, 1902. ALMOST KILLED.

No. 35 Straightens Kinky, Curly Hair OZONO TRADE MARK KING OF ALL HAIRTONICS. 50¢ BEFORE. AFTER. BE WARNED In order to protect the public from the numerous quack nostrums now on the market, which claim to straighten and cause the hair to grow long, and which are simply put up by a lot of quacks, charlatans, and fakirs, who have no chemical skill, with the sole idea to get your hard-earned cash and give you nothing in return for your money but a dirty, sticky mass of worthless greases, which injure the hair and cause it to fall out, we have placed our trade-mark, granted to us by the Government of the United States of America, on every box of OZONO, King of all Hair-Growers and Hair-Straighteners. This trade-mark consists of two heads, as shown in this advertisement—one head showing short, curly hair, the other showing long, flowing hair. Any preparation showing the heads with the hair done up in a coll, or showing features different from the faces shown in this advertisement, is not OZONO. Seeing our marked success with the true hair-straightener, OZONO, King of all Hair-Growers, numerous firms are now widely advertising spurious compounds, and trading on the reputation that we have made for OZONO. Do not be fooled by these flaring advertisements, which are all promises. Buy the genuine and only original King of all Hair Tonics, OZONO. Two hundred and fifty thousand colored people bought OZONO in the last twelve months. OZONO is sold in every State in the Union, all over Europe, Asia, Africa, and South America, also in Cuba and the West Indies. Its fame has travelled around the world, because it is a true Hair Tonic, that straightens without any outside assistance. No hot irons are used; nothing but OZONO. It not only straightens the hair, but produces a long, silky, beautiful, luxurious growth of soft, fine hair. To neglect your hair is more than foolish, when you can increase its beauty by a few applications of OZONO. We can send OZONO to any place that you may live in, no matter where you may live. The price of OZONO is 50c. a box, sent to any point on receipt of price. Four boxes is a complete treatment. In order to introduce this great Hair Tonic, we will send to you, on receipt of only $1.00, the following grand aggregation: Four boxes of OZONO; one bottle of ELECTRICAL SKIN REFINER, which softens rough skin and brightens black skin, making it several shades lighter, worth 50c.; also one bottle of ELECTRICAL SKIN FOOD, Nature's cure for all skin diseases, such as Pimples, Tan, Acne, Itch, Eczema, and Boils. It also removes Wrinkles, and makes the skin soft and pliant. We will also include a one-pint package of ANTI-ODOR, which removes all smells and odors arising from the human body, such as feet, arm-pits, &c.; also one bar of our PURITY SCALP SOAP, made expressly for the human scalp.

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 sucor 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 encoachment 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.

Baltimore, Md.—While Joe Waleott did the bulk of the work and had the better of the argument with "Young Peter Jackson" here recently, he failed to score a knockout and therefore forfeited his share of the gate. Jackson showed remarkable improvement over his showing in a previous fight with the "Giant Killer," his science saving him from much damage. Jackson has been steadily developing into a high-class pugilist. Joe Gans, than whom no cleverer boxer lives, has been teaching Jackson much about ring tactics, with the result that the latter from now on will be a hard man for anybody to beat. Walcott admitted after the ten-round go that Jackson was better than in the first encounter and that his cleverness was surprising. Gans is in the same "stable" with Jackson, and they work together continually. Gans is in magnificent condition for his coming battle with Frank Erne, to be decided at Fort Erie, and will probably be a favorite in the betting. $2.98 tular $3.49 Hats, ready to wear day's sale at: grant line we are justly proud of tily trimmed Hats, in all col middle-aged women in Saturday's Saturday Is Children's the little ones here—you'll find nt for them, priced in Sat e from $8.00 down to: ready to wear, w ustly proud of is its, in all colors, in Saturday's sa children's ere—you'll find w iced in Saturday n to: Young Peter Jackson and Joe Walcott fought ten rounds to a draw before the Eureka Athletic club on the 13th. Although the fight was declared a draw Walcott had the better of it. He forced the fighting from start to finish and all that Jackson tried to do was to stay the ten rounds, as Walcott had agreed to knock Peter out in the ten rounds. The few times that Jackson did land on Walcott did not even seem to tease the Barbados wonder. Jackson had the advantage in height and reach and both were trained for the contest. Walcott did nearly all the fighting. The hall was packed and many persons could not even see the ring, much less the contest. Joe Walcott, when he goes to England, ought to have a royal time tackling heavyweights. On the other side it is a well-known fact that there has not been a first-class English "heavy" since the palmy days of Charley Mitchell. "Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien, the American middleweight, holds the title of "champion heavyweight of England." If Walcott cannot get on a match with any of the British "heavies" he might make a try for the title by going after O'Brien.

PATRICK IS GUILTY Convicted of the Murder of the Aged Millionaire. The Jury Was Out Three Hours--Not a Muscle of the Prisoner's Face Moved as the Foreman of the Jury Announced the Verdict. New York, March 27.—Albert T. Patrick, lawyer, was last evening convicted of the murder on September 23, 1900, of the aged millionaire recluse, William Marsh Rice. The penalty under the statute is death in the electric chair. A scant three hours of deliberation at the close of a trial prolonged for nine weeks and replete with sensational interest sufficed to enable the jury to reach their verdict. The issue of the trial establishes the charge that Patrick conspired with Mr. Rice's valet, Charles F. Jones, to obtain possession of the aged Texan's estate, estimated at $7,000,000, and that Jones killed his employer by the administration of chloroform at the direct instigation of Patrick. At the close of Recorder Goff's charge, which occupied the morning session of the court, the jury retired. This was at 1:50 p. m. At 5:55 p. m. they notified the officer in charge that they were ready to return to court, rather more than an hour of the intervening time having been devoted to luncheon. In anticipation of a scene of excitement in the event of a verdict of guilty, the unusual step was taken of ordering all women to leave the court room. Among them were the prisoner's two sisters and Mrs. Francis, with whom he boarded. The members of the jury filed into their places, and some minutes of painful tension elapsed while messengers were endeavoring to find the counsel, who had departed, not expecting a verdict for many hours. Calm as ever and with confidence seemingly unshaken, the prisoner was escorted into the court room. He walked rapidly and took his stand facing the jury with head erect and hands loosely clasped behind his back. At the word "guilty" pronounced by Foreman Machell in a tone low but distinct enough to be heard throughout the court, not the slightest change passed over Patrick's face and he remained standing in ar. almost listless attitude while the customary poll of the jury was being taken. His aged father, Capt. Patrick, sitting near him, and straining to catch the statement of the foreman, started for an instant as its import reached him and then sat calmly awaiting the further proceedings. A smile of triumph lit up the face of Assistant District Attorney Osborne, who hastened from the court immediately after Recorder Goff had, at the request of the prisoner's counsel, fixed on a week from Monday as the day on which to pronounce sentence. The verdict was known almost immediately in the corridor where the women relatives and friends of the prisoner were waiting, and a scene of excitement ensued. Patrick, after taking leave of his father, was led back to the Tombs. A motion will be made for a new trial when the prisoner is arraigned for sentence. The cases of David L. Short and Morris Meyers, the witnesses to Patrick's will, who testified for him ad the preliminary hearing before Justice Jerome and were indicted for perjury as a result of their testimony, will probably be moved for trial in about ten days. What disposition will be made of Charles F. Jones, the former valet secretary of Millionaire Rice, who confessed on the stand that he placed a chloroformed sponge in a cone over his sleeping employer's face, no one connected with the district attorney's office would say. Jones is not under indictment for murder, and so far as is known is not under indictment for forgery or conspiracy. WAIT FOR RESULTS. No More Injunction Suits Against Hallroads Until Judges Decide Chicago, March 27.—Unless there shall be a change in the present plan of the government, no more suits for injunction will be filed against the railroads until Judges Philips and Grossecup shall pass upon the legit of the restraining orders now in force. The joint hearing probably will take place here June 23. Attorney W. A. Day, special counsel for the government, left for Washington last night to confer with the department of justice as to subsequent actions. If the head of the department shall take the same view as Attorney Day, no more expense will be incurred in bringing suits, unless the courts shall decide in favor of the injunction method. In the event of a favorable decision, bills will be filed as rapidly as they can be prepared in St. Louis, St. Paul and New York, and others will be filed in Chicago. The decision to delay other cases surprised the attorneys for the railroads and placed, in their judgment, a new phase upon the matter. Although no assurances were given them that such would be the case, it was generally understood that all the roads would be brought in as fast as bills could be prepared. More Pay for 400 Railroaders. Wheeling, W. Va., March 27.—Representatives of the Cleveland, Lorain & Wheeling railroad men have returned from a conference with Baltimore & Ohio officials at Baltimore and announce an advance of wages in branch lines, to conform to the scale paid on the main branches of the road. Engineers and conductors get from 25 to 50 cents a day advance and brakemen 25 cents advance. Overtime is allowed after being out ten hours, instead of 14 as before. The advance will affect about 400 men. A Race War in Alabama: Jasper, Ala., March 27.—Information has been received here of a race riot 12 miles east of Jasper late Wednesday afternoon. One hundred and fifty shots are reported to have been exchanged, but the casualties cannot be ascertained. Sheriff Moore has received a telegram from Gov. Jelks authorizing him to call out the local militia whenever he thinks it necessary. The seat of the trouble is at a negro colony on Warrior river. The negroes have armed themselves and are prepared to make a stubborn resistance. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MARCH 29, 1902. CECIL RHODES IS DEAD. The Diamond King Has Crossed the Great Divide. Cape Town, March 27.—Cecil Rhodes is dead. Mr. Rhodes was conscious until 5:55 p. m. yesterday, when he muttered a few words and sank quickly. The immediate cause of his death was two successive attacks of heart failure. At his bedside were Dr. Jameson, Dr. J. W. Smartt, the commissioner of public works, Col. Elmhurst Rhodes, director of signalling of the South African field force, and Mr. Walton, a member of the assembly of Port Elizabeth. Mr. Rhodes' last words were the names of his brother and some of the others present, which were meant to be good-byes. C CECIL RHODES. The body will be taken to Groote Schnur, the residence of the deceased near Cape Town. There it will probably lie in state for a day or two and the public will be admitted to view the remains. It has not yet been determined where he will be buried. It was the wish of Mr. Rhodes to be interred at Matoppo Hills, Rhodesia. Some of his friends, will proceed to Matoppo Hills to determine whether it is practicable to carry out this wish. London, March 27.—A dispatch from Cape Town in this morning's Daily Express says that Dr. Jameson is authority for the statement that Cecil Rhodes left Groot Schuur, his residence near Cape Town, to the people of that city, as well as large sums of money to charities. ON A BRIBERY CHARGE A New Yorker Is Arrested in Philadelphia - $78,000 Is Said to be Involved. Philadelphia, March 27.—Moses Schwartz, who is wanted in New York for alleged forgeries on the Seventh national bank aggregating $78,000, was arrested here Wednesday. Schwartz was arraigned for a hearing and was held to await requisition papers from New York. R. W. Jones, vice president of the Seventh national bank of New York, made a statement in which he said that Schwartz, as manager of the Manhattan Mercantile Co., 35 South William street, New York, had an account with his bank. The Manhattan Mercantile Co. failed last summer, a short time previous to the failure of the Seventh national bank. While he was a depositor Schwartz, it is alleged, secured loans amounting to about $78,000 on worthless notes. When the fraudulent character of the notes was discovered, Schwartz had disappeared, leaving his family in New York. His wife was subsequently shadowed and Schwartz was located in this city. He had been here six weeks. NORIEL CAPTURED. The Last but One of the FI' pho In- surgent Leaders is Boundo surgent Leaders is Round Up. Manila, March 27.—Noriel, the only insurgent general with the exception of Malvar, still in the field, has been captured by Lieut. Frank E. Bamford, of the Twenty-eighth infantry. A major, a captain, a lieutenant and five men who were acting as a bodyguard to Noriel were captured with him. They have been held as prisoners of war. There is reason to believe that one member of this bodyguard is Gen. Malvar in disguise. Lieut. bamford is certain that if this general is not one of the captured party, he is in the immediate neighborhood of the scene of Noriel's capture. Noriel has been one of the recognized leaders of the insurrection since 1899. He was captured on his way to the coast, while endeavoring to escape. He admits that the insurrection, as such, is over and says that the few remaining leaders are fleeing. A Holdup in a Hotel. Emporia, Kan., March 27.—Two masked men made a bold attempt early Wednesday to rob the safe of the Hotel Whitley. With leveled revolvers they compelled Paul Vickery, a clerk; Jesse Reeves, a porter, and W. F. Sullivan, a traveling man, to throw up their hands. Sullivan was ordered to throw his cash on the floor, and complied to the extent of $50. He and the porter were then locked in a cloak room. Vickery was ordered to open the safe, but was unable to do so, and after being relieved of his money, was locked in the closet. The robbers tried to open the safe, but failed and departed. Andrews was a Plunger. Detroit, Mich., March 27.—Disclosures by two local brokerage firms of their dealings with Frank C. Andrews, vice president of the wrecked City savings bank, show the stupendous character of his speculations. From August 5, 1901, to February 6, 1902, he bought stocks through McLaughlin & Co., amounting to $12,193,200 and sold to the amount of $1,761,015, a total of $13,954,215. Through Cameron, Currie & Co., he bought between October 31 and February 10 to the amount of $3,533,000 and sold to the amount of $10,465,600. For a Monument to McKinley. Albany, N. Y., March 27.—A bill appropriating $100,000 for the erection of a monument at Buffalo in memory of President McKinley was passed yesterday by the state senate. Gov. Odell sent a message to the legislature urging the immediate passage of the bill. Got Five Years for Stealing $36,000.

Upham, of Wisconsin, told a good story of himself one day recently. good story of himself one day recently. "I was once interested in two lumber deals," he said. "I had offered a valuable piece of property at $60,000 and at the same time I was trying to buy a tract of pine trees. While the deals were pending I ran across a gypsy fortune teller in the woods and I asked her to tell my fortune. "You will be very lucky in your deals,' she said. "That's good,' I remarked. "Yes,' continued the fortune teller, 'your luck will beat your brains.'" Gov. Upham says that the woman spoke the truth. A few days later the syndicate which held the option of $60,000 upon the property he had offered at that price decided not to accept it, and it was not long before he was able to sell the land for almost double the amount.—Washington Post. No Book Learning Needed. During a school tea the other day I kindly old doctor was regarding one of the young guests with evident alarm. Undismayed by the doctor's glances, the young scholar rapidly demolished plate after plate of bread and butter and cake. At last the doctor could stand it no longer. Going up to the young rascal, he said: "My boy, have you ever read any book which would tell you what to eat, what to drink and what to avoid?" "Lor' bless you, sir," replied the young gentleman, with his mouth half full of plum cake, "I don't want no book. Why, I eats all I can, I drinks all I can and I avoids burstin'."—Indianapolis Sentinel.

GIGANTIC ADVERTISING Grand Trunk Arranges Plans for Picture Exhibit. Though the Grand Trunk Railway system carried over 30,000 tourists and sportsmen into one district of Canada's summer playgrounds last year, the Company is starting out this year with a vigorous policy of advertising to still further increase the influx of pleasure-seekers who annually travel over this system. The company has now decided to give the populace of some of the larger cities in the states of Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Kentucky and Pennsylvania an opportunity of seeing the series of photographic views it had on exhibition at the Pan-American exposition at Buffalo. There will be over 100 pictures in the collection, each measuring 3 feet 6 inches by 4 feet 2 inches, in addition to one of the finest collections of mounted fish that has ever been shown. The fish include specimens of black bass from the "Highlands of Ontario," dore and maskinonge from the St. Lawrence, land-locked salmon from their native waters, and other specimens of rare value. A representative of the Grand Trunk will accompany the exhibit and the art gallery will be installed in the business portion of the cities visited. Thousands of copies of literature, describing the several regions to be advertised, will be distributed. The exhibit will open at Saginaw, Mich., March 10, and goes from there to Grand Rapids, thence south to several points in the other states. The tour will occupy ten weeks, two days being allowed in each city. Modern War.
