Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, as second-class matter. TRADE STOCK COUNCIL CLEVELAND, SATURDAY, AUG. 2. 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. What was the matter with Mr. Edward E. Cooper, of Washington, that he was not in St. Paul last week? Could he not raise the wherewithal for ferriage over the broad expanse? Perhaps the trip came too close upon his recent lithographic supplement of Tuskegee in the Colored American, to make further demands. — Boston (Mass.) Guardian. Our esteemed confrere is mistaken. The reason why Cooper failed to attend the St. Paul meetings of the National Afro-American Council and Press association is found in the thorough airing The Gazette gave his contemptible treatment of many race editors and publishers, in certain business transactions he had with them. The fellow knew that there were many in attendance upon those meetings who were patiently waiting for him to poke his nose into any of the sessions. There would have been a public washing of some of his dirty business linen that would have attracted the attention of our people from the lakes to the gulf and from ocean to ocean. As references we give the Dallas Express, Martinsburg Pioneer Press, Chicago Conservator, Broad Ax and a number of other race contemporaries. "MAJOR" TAYLOR AND PREJU DICE. The "crack" white professional cyclists of the country, Kramer, Collett, Lawson, Bald and others, are continuing their miserable and prejudiced tactics to prevent "Major." Taylor, decidedly the fastest bicycle rider in the world, from winning the American championship again this season. Summer before last he beat them all. Last year they prevented him from winning the championship, but could not keep him from signally defeating Kramer, the alleged champion for that year, in a race at the close of the season, two or all heats of which the little Afro-American wonder won easily. It is simply astounding—the increase of prejudice among all classes of whites in this country in the last few years. The crusade against our people of southern Negro-hating whites has been far too successful in recent years, but seemingly not sufficiently successful to properly impress the majority of our people. It begins to look as if they must be almost wiped off the face of the American continent before their eyes will open and the proper defensive steps are taken generally among them. There is great work at hand for our newspapers, leaders, preachers, organizations and all individuals if they would but realize the fact and understand their true condition. It ought to be clear to all that there is to be no more leaning upon prominent whites for the leadership or work that is to be done, but that the future of the race remains entirely with it. Some way to thoroughly impress the great majority with this fact should be devised as soon as possible. SIMPLY DISGUSTING The Afro-Americans, both individuals and newspapers, who have the "nerve and gall" to continue to sound the praises of President Roosevelt in the face of his treatment of southern Afro-American republicans in particular and our people in general, ought to be made to go way back on the island of Luzon and lay down. The president's Booker Washington dinner and buncomb reference to lynching in his Arlington Decoration day speech, have never misled us for a moment, because he has done and continues to do entirely too much to injure the race and retard its progress. It is notorious that he refused to recall the nomination of that self-confessed lyncher, George R. Koester, whom he appointed internal revenue collector of South Carolina some months before the recent session of congress convened. It ought to be well-known also that immediately upon the adjournment of congress he appointed one Major Mirah Jenkins, a democrat, as Koester's successor, whose first official act as collector was to dismiss ex-Congressman George W. Murray, a deputy collector, and the only Afro-American in Jenkins' branch of the government service in South Carolina. We have not much sympathy for Murray because he was one of the few traitorious members of the race in his state who endeavored to secure the confirmation of Lyncher Koester, but we do object to President Roosevelt's upolding that pernicious and color-line "McKinley New Southern Policy" which gave new life to lily-white republicanism in that section of the country. If there is anything calculated to make a person sicker than Roosevelt, Hanna and McKinley's treatment of the southern Afro-American in particular and Afro- Americans in general, it is the fact that there are members of the race so lost to self-respect and regard for their race's vital interests as to continue to "slobber" all over those mentioned, even though one is dead, with a hope and view of conserving their political interests at some time in the future to the extent of getting a job. May God forgive them. REUBEN S. SMITH AFTER CONGRESSMAN LITTLEFIELD'S SCALP. HAWKINS-TAYLOR The Week's Social, Personal and Church News of the "Gem City." Dayton, O.—Miss Amanda Hawkins and James A.

Palilian Festival at Rome A Twentleth Century Picture of Caesarean Splendor. THE Palilian festival, which is observed annually at Rome with imposing ceremonies, commemorates the founding of the eternal city. It derives its name from the old Latin divinity, Pales. Originally the festival was of a purely bucolic character; shepherds and cattle jumped over a straw, fire for purposes of purification, and cakes and milk were offered as a sacrifice to the goddess. Nowadays more elaborate customs prevail, the name being the only feature that has been retained. This year's festival, which was observed on the 4th of May, exceeded in sumptuousness anything that has been seen of recent years. On the heights of the Urbs quadrata was inaugurated a historical procession which took astonished sightseers from abroad back to the days of imperial Rome. The procession was led by Numidian horsemen, mounted pretorians and bodyguards on foot. They were followed by mimes, dancers and acrobats, a group of Dactians clothed in wild animal skins and the cohorts of legionaries. Gladiators in white, red and blue tunics, were grouped in picturesque tableaux. A palanquin, carried by four Moorish slaves, housed Signora Millilotti, the famous Italian artist. It was followed by gay groups of patricians and their ladies in elaborate Roman and Grecian gowns with gold and jeweled trimmings, and dainty dandies, accompanied by slaves and beautiful pages. Pompous freedmen filled the space between the first GROUP OF PATRICIAN LADIES IN PALILIAN PROCESSION and a second, still more elegant, palanquin in which reclined a noble matron, accompanied by a page who wielded a magnificent peacock fan. Two steers with gilded horns drew the carriage of the imperial family, which was preceded by a detachment of slaves and a troop of Gallic guardsmen. Then followed the emperor, clad in consular robes, reclining in a carriage drawn by Ethiopian slaves. Next came more pretorians and the ephebes, who were to take part in the festival games, children with wreaths and flower baskets, shepherds and peasants, and finally the young steer and sheep set apart for the sacrifice, priests and their attendants, vestals in white robes and the lictors, bearing the axe and fasces, the insignia of their office. A motley crowd brought up the rear. After marching twice around the stadium the procession approached the center, where an altar had been erected. The imperial family and the senators were then seated in a semi-circle upon curules, chairs of state, the children scattered their flowers among the patricians, and the high priest with the Vestalis Maxima approached the steps of the altar and lighted the fire, amid the applause of the gaping multitude. A chorus of 200 voices accompanied the sacrificial ceremony with the song of Horatian Carmen Saeculare, which had been set to music by Maestro Cellini especially for this occasion. From an artistic as well as spectacular point of view the Palilian festival of 1902 was not only a perfect success, but a lesson as well. It demonstrated that nowhere outside of Italy and Greece can classic spectacles of antiquity be reproduced in a satisfactory manner. Englishmen, Germans and Americans have tried it, but always without success. They spent more money on their productions than the Romans, but gold could not supply the mercurial temperament and ancestral pride which are essential to the effective representation of historical scenes. The War Dogs of Germany The War Dogs of Germany They Are Taught to Carry Messages and Ammunition. THE natural instincts of the dog, his docility, watchfulness, endurance and revability, have induced the German war office to use him for military purposes. The raising and training of the so-called war dogs has been entrusted to the sharpshooter branch of the service, with a commissioned officer in charge. It is his duty to train the dogs especially for picket duty. The prime essential in the canine educational scheme is to develop the faculty of watchfulness so that the pupil will give warning of the approach of a stranger by a subdued growl, instead of a loud and dangerous bark. Next, the dog must learn to carry messages from one point to another with absolute precision. Reports entrusted to him by advance pickets he must carry to headquarters without loss of time. As soon as he has delivered the message he must return to the place from which he was dispatched. The picture shows how the canine messenger carries his papers—in a small leather bag attached to the collar. But a truly efficient war dog has still other missions to perform. He should be able to carry ammunition to the sharpshooting detachments at the front. And after the battle he is supposed to assist in locating A SENDING OUT A WAR DOG WITH A MESSAGE wounded and disabled soldiers and a sharp barks.

Results like these indicated can be obtained only after a prolonged course of expert training, and then only with pure-blooded animals. The breeds most in demand are poodles, pointers and Scotch collies. The latter are preferred, because with marvelous intelligence they combine a hardiness which enables them to defy climatic changes. Germany is not the only country which employs dogs for military purposes. France has, for some time, used them in connection with the army hospital corps and the army police service. In Italy they are employed for carrying drinking water and light refreshments to detached posts. In the Alpine divisions of Austria they are taught to act as guides as well as messengers. The officers of the United States army do not take kindly to the introduction of canine auxiliaries, but the wonderful success which has attended their enrollment in the continental armies may work a revolution and lead to the formation of a military dog-training establishment. Lovers of dogs are not surprised at the intelligence displayed by the German war dogs. They consider their feats merely as a rational development of the wisdom of which every dog is possessed in a greater or less degree. SINGLE OFFICERS IN DEMAND. They Are Preferred Because of the Crowded Condition of Uncle Sam's Military Posts. The overcrowded condition of the residential quarters of the various military posts in this country, due to the return of regiments from the Philippines, is embarrassing the military authorities, reports the Washington Star. The trouble is not so much with respect to housing the officers themselves as with the members of their families. The situation has reached a point where bachelors are favored over benedicts in assignment to stations with limited living accommodations where such discrimination is possible. And it is even asserted that where there is no other choice between two young candidates for a commission it is bestowed on --- announce eventual discoveries by short, be obtained only after a prolonged only with pure-blooded animals.

Even then it is recognized, however, that the bachelor appointed is not likely to continue long in single blessedness. The powers that be admit that their authority does not reach to the extent of interfering with subsequent affairs of the heart. It is made plain that there is no official prejudice against matrimony—but just at the present the military posts would afford better accommodations for more officers if it were not for the family attachments of some of them. Congress provided liberally for the army in this respect during the session just closed, but it will be many months before the additional quarters authorized are ready for use.

They are absolutely necessary to those who would succeed. There is also a necessity for education that is growing greater and greater each year. There is no longer room in this world for either a lazy or an ignorant man. Neither should a person scatter his interests, but specialize, whether it be in a trade, a business, or a profession. These are all elements of success, and all of nearly equal importance; but of them all the first two must have their place if the work we do is to live for the posterity for whom it is performed. IAPAN A STRONG NATION. The Flowery Kingdom Is Fast Becoming an Important Factor in the Affairs of the World. In view of the agreement entered into between Great Britain and Japan, the "fighting strength" of our oriental ally becomes a factor of considerable importance, says the London Chronicle. A new naval programme will probably be announced some time this year, but at present the Japanese navy consists of 8 battle-ships, 7 armored cruisers, 3 second-class cruisers, 2 third-class cruisers, 3 torpedo gunboats, about 100 torpedo craft, and 1 torpedo depot ship. This list, according to the latest returns, does not include some small cruisers that are being built in Japan. The Japanese navy was organized entirely on the lines of the British navy. The following are the chief characteristics of the larger class of vessels: Length, 400 feet, with a breadth of 75 feet 6 inches, and main draught of 75 feet 6 inches; normal displacement, 15,200 tons; armament, four 12-inch 49-ton guns placed in pairs on two barbettes situated forward and aft; 14 quick-firing 6-inch guns carried on the broadside, and 20 12-pounder quick-firing guns. There are in these vessels four submerged torpedo discharges. The Harveyized armor-belt 226 feet long by 8 feet 6 inches deep, the thickness of armor being 9 inches. On the barbettes the armor is 14 inches thick above the main deck, and 9 inches below in front. The ships are propelled by twin screws, the engines being of 15,000 indicated horse-power, supplied by Bellevue boilers, the contract speed is 18.5 knots. The coal capacity at normal draught is 700 tons, but the bunkers are capable of holding 1,400 tons. The complement is 741 officers and men. Among the battleships is the Chen-Yuen, captured from China, which has a displacement of 7,400 tons, indicated horse-power 6,200; armament, four 12-inch (Krupp), four 6-inch, quick-firing and eight light guns, as well as eight other guns and three torpedo tubes. Her speed is 14 knots. Of the armored cruisers the largest is the Asama, with a displacement of 9,750 tons, an indicated horse power of 19,000; armament, 4 8-inch quick-firing, 14 6-inch (Amstrong), 5 torpedo tubes (four submerged), and speed 22.1 knots. Some of the cruisers have a greater speed, like the Tokiwa, with 23 knots, others less, like the Yakumo, with 20 knots. Other cruisers and destroyers vary in displacement between 1,350 and 5,416 tons. They all carry quick-firing guns and the destroyers are said to have a maximum trial speed of 30 knots or more. Some were built on the Thames, others on the Clyde and some at Barrow and Elswick. Although Japan took England for a model in the building and manning of her navy, she went to Germany for the organization of her army. The military budget of 1901-2 provides for 13 divisions of the army, including the division of the guard, 26 infantry brigades, each of 23-battalion regiments, 17 regiments of cavalry (51, squadrons), 19 regiments of artillery (114 field and mountain batteries), 13 battalions of pioneers, comprising 28 companies (to be increased to 39 companies), 13 battalions of train of 2 companies each and the railway and telegraph battalion, each of 3 companies. In addition to the 13 divisions there are 3 regiments of coast and 2 battalions of foot artillery, as well as the Yesso brigade, comprising 4 battalions of infantry, besides cavalry artillery and pioneers. The army of the second line (garrisons and reserve), consists of 36 battalions of infantry, besides cavalry, pioneers and depot troops. The peace strength in 1901-2 was 8,166 officers and 135,538 men, be- NECESSITIES OF SUCCESS By Dr. A. A. WILLIITS, New York "Apostle of Sunshine." ing a total of 143,649. The war strength (with 171 battalions, 43 squadrons and 71 batteries), was 392,220, with 1,098 guns, but this does not include all the reserves. SHE NEEDED SYMPATHY. And She Got It from a Willing Physician at the Rate of Five Dollars an Hour. "When Dr. Pills went abroad," said the young physician, according to the Washington Post, "he left me in charge of his practice, and opposite one address in his book he made a mark—I won't say what it was—but it meant that I was to call at that house every day, without fail. I naturally expected to find the case a serious one, but owing to another mark beside the name I learned that nothing in the world was amiss with the patient. "It was a woman, and she lives in a handsome house in the best quarter of the town. She has a husband who is wrapped up in his business, and two grown sons who have their own affairs to attend to. I found her in bed, her elderly face topped by a coquettish invalid's cap. A lace shawl lay about her shoulders, and a silk quilt was spread carefully over her. "Every time I went to see her I found her in a different toilet. Even the quilt was never alike two days in succession. There was absolutely nothing the matter with her but what I may call heart ennui. She was rich, but she hadn't anything in the world to interest her. Her husband and sons were good to her, but that is all. They didn't pet her hor make of her. She was simply pining for a little sympathy. It diverted her to see me come in." "It pleased her to be able to talk about herself to somebody who would listen. She gained in her own estimation from having her pulse felt every day. She wanted the doctor to plan her day for her. Some days I ordered her to drive in a closed carriage. Other days I told her a drive in her victoria would do her a world of good. I always cautioned her to wrap up well. I gave her sympathy and attention, and I made her feel that she was an object of interest to at least one person. "Of course, she was silly and selfish, too, but if her thick headed family had only thought of flattering her, of making of her, of treating her with anything besides their unvarying, unemotional kindness, she'd never have fancied herself an invalid. As it was, and as it is, she pays $5 a visit for the chance to talk to somebody who is sympathetic, and I'm willing to supply sympathy to the whole town at that price." The Caribou. Newfoundland strangely appeals to the sportsman, whether he be devoted to the rod or the gun, and to a lover of the beauties of nature a day's outing in this rugged land is ample reward in itself, apart from the satisfactory basket or bag, as the case may be, which is certain to be secured. The country is wonderfully rich in all kinds of game birds and animals. But it is as a deer country that Newfoundland excels. The noble caribou roam over its uninhabited interior in countless herds. They are so numerous that the most unskilled sportsman, if well guided, need not return home without skins and antlers, secured by his own hand.—From "The Home of the Caribou," by H. A. Morine, in Four-Track News. "Ah, Miss Breeze," began the romantic young man, "I adore the beautiful. I am a lover of poetry. I am a—" "Cuckoo!" interrupted a small voice in the clock.

Please notify Mr. Jones. The statement being made to the effect that the editor of the The Gazette purchased stock in the Douglass Sraw-binder Co., is untrue. Mr. Douglass gave him one share. Don't buy any more shares of stock or put any more money into the thing until Mr. Douglass has secured a patent on his alleged invention. Mr. George Richardson, son of Dr. Geo. H. Richardson, a clerk in the departments at Washington, D. C., has secured a position with the Lake Shore road at Collinwood as stenographer. He is stopping at his uncle's.

Warner, (white) proprietor of a restaurant at 231 Seneca street, for $300 damages because Warner refused to serve him a meal—drew a color line. Mr. Young says he went into the restaurant with two white friends June 11. The waitress, he alleges, by Warner's instructions, offered to serve his friends, but would not serve him. Several witnesses were heard. Geo. H. Turner has opened a shoeshop at No. 627 Central avenue, near Newton street. Our people should appreciate this opportunity to patronize one of our own class in business, especially since Mr. Turner is a shoemaker of 20 years' experience and guarantees the best material and workmanship, as cheap as any. Special attention is given the repair of ladies' and gentlemen's fine shoes. Tell your frineds to also patronize him. The editor of The Gazette spoke at St. John's church fast Sunday evening on "Some Problems of Race Interest." There was a large congregation in spite of the inclement weather and it thoroughly appreciated Hon. H. C. Smith's exceptionally interesting and forceful talk. It was a treat.

Cunningham, second vice; Mrs. Jessie Bolden, secretary; Miss Bertha Blue, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Sylvia Stevens, treasurer; Mrs. Georgia Brooks, chairman board of lady managers. No Sentiment in Politics There is no longer any sentiment in politics. We must fight for our political existence, and, to be sure we are right, we must so act that we shall control every republican organization in the southern states that we can. We should fight for chairman of state committees and members of the national republican committee in the full knowledge that it is a contest of life and death. If the Afro-Americans of the south do not pursue this course they will lose everything, having only themselves to blame; and the Afro-Americans of the north and west will feel free to make such alliances in the states where they are, as will best serve their interests, and they will have no trouble in doing it, leaving their southern brethren to the fate which they will have invited by still trusting to the treachery of white republicans. We say this all the more freely because the Afro-Americans of the south, as far as their politicians are concerned, have acted the part of cold-blooded selfishness towards their brothers of the north and west for 25 years, taking all the political consideration in their states and out of them that they could get, regardless of the rights or wishes of their northern and western brethren, who have given their southern brethren a more than a David and Jonathan devotion.—N. Y. Age. Champion City Cullings Springfield, O.—The two weeks' meeting at the fair ground under the auspices of Allen church closed Sunday.

M. C. A. "Major" Taylor "Pocketed." Washington, D. C.—"Major" Taylor finished second to Kramer in his first race for the national championship at the circuit meet here July 23 before 2,500 people. The final heat brought together Kramer, Taylor, Collett and Lawson, probably the four fastest sprinters in the country. Kramer and Lawson set the pace and Taylor was pocketed on the second turn from the stretch, but stole through on the turn into the stretch and beat Collett and Lawson in the sprint, while he forced Kramer to the utmost to finish by barely a foot. In the handicap Taylor rode himself out, setting pace to catch the limit men and did not finish. Bald and Williams won the heats. Owas Bug Factory. Chillicothe, O.-J. A.

PINKHAM:—Soon after my marriage two years ago I found myself in constant pain. The doctor said my womb was turned, and this caused the pain with considerable inflammation. He prescribed for me for A. four months, when my husband became impatient because I grew worse instead of better, and in speaking to the drugist he advised him to get Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Sanative Wash. How I wish I had taken that at first; it would have saved me weeks of suffering. It took three long months to restore me, but it is a happy relief, and we are both most grateful to you. Your Compound has brought joy to our home and health to me." — MRS. PAULINE JUDSON, 47 Hoyt Street, Brooklyn, N. Y. — 55000 forfeit if above testimonial is not genuine.

Y., of the New York & Stamford Electric Co. The water famine which has been threatening Trinidad, Col., for so long is now a reality. The city is without fire protection and water for domestic purposes has to be purchased by the buckettful. Reports from Hornellsville, N. Y., show that the recent cloudburst affected nearly 80 square miles of territory. A broad estimate of the damage is $250,000. The crop loss is enormous.

The members of the Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, who have been employed on repair work at the White House in Washington have quit work in order to enforce the rules of the union. The cause of the "walk-out," it is stated, is the refusal of the New York firm having the contract for electrical work at the White House to pay the scale of the Electrical Workers' union. At the town of Stratford, N. Y., there has been a strange upheaval of the ground. Tons of sod, gravel and stone were tossed in the air and landed on a knoll 12 feet higher than their original resting place.

The explosion of a gasoline engine in the mines of Jacob Shiro, at Short Mountain, Pa., wrecked the power house of the colliery and destroyed the breaker and storage house. The loss will amount to thousands of dollars. A "BLACKLIST." Miners Who Worked Were Threatened With One-Mobs Said to Be Intimidating Miners Who Want to Work in the Anthracite Region. Charleston, W.Va., July 30.--One of the points which was brought out in the trial of John Richards and others in the federal court here before Judge Keller yesterday is that Richards threatened to blacklist all miners who refused to come out and join the strikers. When Richards was speaking to a crowd and the working miners were listening, he turned to the working miners and pleaded with them to quit work and said that when the strike was over and the union had been recognized, which it surely would be, they would not be able to work in any section of the country. He told them he had a list of all their names and it would be furnished to every local union in the country, and wherever they went they would be pointed to as "scabs" and would not be allowed to earn a living. It has developed that, if the injunction issued by Judge Keller in the suit of the Gauley Mountain Coal Co. is followed strictly, it will prevent the strikers from going into the incorporated town of Ansted, in this state. The bill of the complainants set up that nearly all the employees of the company live in Ansted, which town is located on the property of the company and that the municipal authorities are unable to cope with the defendants, Wilson, "Mother" Jones, Purcell and others, and are unable to protect the property of the company or the persons or safety of the employees, and that the police have been openly defied. The injunction of the court prohibits the defendants from going on the property of the company, or camping or marching on it, so it includes most of this municipal corporation. Mt. Carmel, Pa., July 30.—Two crowds of strikers numbering several hundred men, women and children gathered between here and Shamokin yesterday and caught several nonunion workmen and badly pummeled them. Shamokin, Pa., July 30.—One thousand people assembled at the Mineral Co.'s colliery last evening and hooted and cursed non-union men as they quit work. A delegation of boys stoned several sub-bosses as they entered town. Chief Burgess Thomas and the police charged the crowd and put them to flight. Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 30.—Several striking miners from Nanticoke were arraigned before Magistrate Brown, of this city, yesterday, charged with committing an assault on William Young, an engineer employed at one of the collieries of the Susquehanna Coal Co. Charleston, W. Va., July 31.—In the trial yesterday of John Richards and others, the defense produced evidence to disprove the statement of prosecuting witnesses that the strikers cursed the injunctions, the courts and the marshals. Mrs. Snyder, wife of one of the defendants, testified that one of the guards employed by the Collins Colliery Co. had met her as she was coming from the post office at Glenjean and told her that she could not come to the post office again, and that he had orders from Mr. Collins to prevent her coming there. Judge Keller leaned from the bench and said: Madame, I want you to understand, and those with you to understand, that no person has a right to prevent you going to a United States post office, it matters not upon whose property it is located, and you are free to go there when you please, and I will protect you in that right." John Richards, chief defendant in this trial, received a letter from his wife, stating that marchers had done well to change the line of march, as a dynamite mine had been placed in the road where they had been marching and men were concealed in the roadside to touch it off when the marchers came by. ON LIBEL CHARGES. A Labor Leader is Arrested at Wilkesbarre, Pa. - Judge Jackson Issues Another Injunction Against Miners. Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 29.-J. F. Mullahy, secretary of the Stationary Firemen's Association of Pennsylvania, was arrested here Monday, charged with libel. Twenty-five complaints had been lodged against him by men who are now employed in various capacities by the coal companies of this section. It is alleged that Mullahy had printed a circular containing the names of the prosecutors. He classified them under the head of "unfair workmen," and then, so it was claimed, posted the circulars in conspicuous places throughout the region. Magistrate Pollock held Mullahy in the sum of $500 on each charge, which made the bail $12,500. The bail was promptly furnished by friends of the accused. Secretary Mullahy has been very active in the strike. It is said that through his influence he has held 95 per cent. of the striking firemen firm. Engineers and pumpmen have gone back in large numbers since the strike began, but the firemen have remained out with the miners almost to a man. Parkersburg, W. Va., July 29. Judge Jackson issued another injunction Monday afternoon of the same general character as those for whose violation "Mother" Jones and others were tried. It was issued upon the application of Clinton Gardner, receiver for the Flemington Coal Co., and is directed against 30 strikers and organizers. Wilson's Life Is Spared. Washington, July 29.—The life of Dr. Russell Wilson, of Ohio, who was captured with a revolutionist party in Nicaragua, has been saved through the representations of Minister Corea, of that country. Wilson was one of several Americans who joined a filibustering expedition which landed near Bluefields. Most of the party were captured or killed. Wilson would have been summarily executed but for the interposition of Senior Corea, the Nicaraguan minister here. The minister induced President Zelaya to commute the death sentence, imposed upon Wilson Blacklist for Contract Jumpers. Blacklist for Contract Jumpers. Toronto, July 29.-P. T. Powers, president of the National Association of Baseball Leagues, arrived in the city Monday. En route to Toronto, he, with J. H. Farrell, president of the New York league, and M. H. Sexton, chairman of the Western and Three "I" leagues, transacted important business for the National Association of Baseball Leagues. It was decided to notify each club that all contract jumpers are to go on the blacklist and the $1,000 fine be rigidly enforced. "And when the peace settlement comes they will be more severely dealt with," said Powers. REIGN OF TERROR. Battle Between Policemen and Strikers at Shenandoah, Pa. Four Policemen and Twenty Miners Were Shot, Several of Them Fatally-Troops Have Been Ordered to the Scene of the Rioting. Shenandoah, Pa., July 31.—A reign of terror, compared with which the scenes enacted during the riots of 1900 seem insignificant, holds Shenandoah in its grasp. Last evening Centre street, one of the principal streets of the town, was in the hands of a mob. Two policemen were shot, one perhaps fatally. Joseph Beddall, a leading merchant and cousin of Sheriff Beddall, was clubbed to death, and upwards of a score of strikers were shot by policemen and it is expected that many deaths will result. Sheriff Beddall arrived from Pottsville at 7:45 o'clock with a posse of deputies. He has asked Gov. Stone to send the militia. The governor wired that if the citizens of the town petition for troops he will send them and a petition was circulated for that purpose. The trouble started about 6 o'clock when Deputy Sheriff Thomas Beddall attempted to escort two non-union workers through the strikers' line of pickets. The workmen were dressed in their street clothes, but one of them carried a bundle under his arm and this aroused the suspicion of the strikers. The bundle was torn from him and when it was found to contain a blouse and overalls the man was taken from the deputy and beat almost to death. In the meantime Beddall opened fire on the mob which had gathered by this time, and emptied his revolver. Two shots took effect, one man being shot in the leg and the other in the foot. The deputy and the other strike breaker were now compelled to fly for their lives and took refuge in the Philadelphia & Reading depot. The depot was soon surrounded by an angry mob of 5,000, which was becoming more threatening every moment. Joseph Beddall, a hardware merchant and brother of the deputy sheriff, was seen making his way through the crowd in an effort to reach his brother, and the mob, divining that he was carrying ammunition to those inside the depot, seized him and beat him with clubs and billies into insensibility. He died en route to the Miners' hospital. Shortly after this the entire borough police force arrived on the scene and escorted the deputy sheriff and his man to an engine which had been backed into the depot for that purpose. When the mob realized that their prey was about to escape they surrounded the engine and the engineer was afraid to move. In a few moments however, the police fired a volley, dispersing the crowd for a brief period, and the engineer got away with his men. Stones were now thrown thick and fast about the heads of the police, whereupon Chief John Fry gave the order to fire. At the first volley the mob fell back and several fell. Their retreat, however, was but momentary. They turned and with revolvers, stones and even a few shotguns they charged on the police and made them fly for their lives. The policemen turned in their fight at short intervals and fired volley after volley at their pursuers, but the mob seemed thoroughly infuriated and smoking revolvers seemed to have no terrors for them. When the Lehigh railroad crossing was reached, a freight train blocked the progress of the police, two of whom were caught and brutally beaten. One of them, Stiney Yaconsky, will die. It is estimated that upwards of 1,000 shots were fired and the wonder is that more fatalities did not result. More than 20 strikers, all of whom were foreigners, were shot, and at least two of them will die. Many of the merchants and politicians refused to sign the call for troops, fearing that the miners will boycott them after the trouble is over. The doctors of the town dressed the wounds of near 40 strikers. Four out of six policemen were shot, one fatally. Harrisburg, Pa., July 31.—The Eighth and Twelfth regiments and Governor's troop have been ordered to Shenandoah. Engine Jumped the Track. Altoona, Pa., July 31. Engineer John W. Kemmerling was instantly killed and his fireman, H. M. Nicey, fatally injured in a wreck at Pack Saddle, 60 miles west of Altoona yesterday. Both men resided in Altoona. Their train, the fast mail, was trying to make up lost time and covered part of the run at the rate of 70 miles an hour. At Pack Saddle there are two reverse curves and the locomotive left the track as soon as it reached the curve, and plunged over a 50-foot embankment to the Conemaugh river. A Grocers' Combine. Lansing, Mich., July 31.—A consolidation of a large number of wholesale grocery houses in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois and Ohio has been effected and a corporation organized known as the National Grocery Company of New Jersey, with a capital stock of $5,500,000. The articles of incorporation of the company were filed yesterday with the secretary of state here. A Grade Crossing Fatality. Binghamton, N. Y., July 31. The band wagon which was conveying the Ilion baseball team to Suburban park yesterday was struck at the Broad street crossing in Lestershire by Erie train No. 2 and the driver instantly killed and six others injured, one seriously. Both horses were also killed. The view of the track west of the station is shut off by the station and a high bluff and the occupants of the wagon claim that the engineer of the train failed to blow his whistle or ring the bell. It is claimed by passengers that the train was running 70 miles an hour. Arrest of an Alleged Forger. Grand Rapids, Mich., July 31.—Max B. Leavitt was arrested last night, charged with obtaining $6,500 through forgery. Leavitt has been employed as teacher in the city schools during the past five years. He is alleged to have obtained money on the note in question from L. S. Provin, a real estate dealer. Big Prices for Rare Books. London, July 31.—An auction sale of rare books brought high prices.

Schneider, 2409 Thirty-seventh Place, Chicago, Ill., writes: "After taking several remedies without result, I began in January, 1901, to take your valuable remedy, Peruna. I was a complete wreck. Had palpitation of the heart, cold hands and feet, female weakness, no appetite, trembling, sinking feeling nearly all the time. You said I was suffering with systemic catarrh, and I believe that I received your help in the nick of time. I followed your directions carefully and can say today that I am well again. I cannot thank you enough for my cure. I will always be your debtor. I have already recommended Peruna to my friends and neighbors and they all praise it, I wish that all suffering women would try it. I testify this according to the truth."—Mrs. X. Schneider. Over half the women have catarrh in some form or another. And yet, probably, not a tenth of the women know that their disease is catarrh. To distinguish catarrh of various organs it has been named very differently. He Had One "Do you guarantee a fit?" asked the anxious man, as he entered the tailor's shop.

A One woman has dyspepsia, another bronchitis, another Bright's disease, another liver complaint, another consumption, another female complaint. These women would be very much surprised to hear that they are all suffering with chronic catarrh. But it is so, nevertheless. Each one of these troubles and a great many more are simply catarrh—that is, chronic inflammation of the mucous lining of whichever organ is affected. Any internal remedy that will cure catarrh in one location will cure it in any other. This is why Peruna has become so justly famous in the cure of female diseases. It cures catarrh wherever located. Its cures remain. Peruna does not palliate—it cures. Hon. Joseph B. Crowley, Congressman from Illinois, writes from Robinson, Ill., the following praise for the great catarrhal tonic Peruna. Congressman Crowley says: "Mrs. Crowley has taken a number of bottles of Peruna on account of nervous troubles. It has proven a strong tonic and lasting cure. I can cheerfully recommend it."---J. B.
