2 THE GAZETTE. (IN ADVANCE.) One Year..... $1 80 Six Months..... 1 00 Three Months..... 50 Subscribers are requested to remit by post office money order or registered letter. Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio. the second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: H. C. SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, { 1894 to 1896. { 1896 to 1898. { 1900 to 1902. ALLIED PRINTING TRADE'S 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. One of the greatest educational institutions in this country is Howard university, Washington, D. C. As to its special advantages we refer our readers to its advertisement published elsewhere in this paper. The Afro-American graduate of white colleges, universities, high and preparatory schools, was very much "in it" this, as well as last spring, and as a result has afforded our aspiring youth much encouragement of the right kind. Dr. W. D. Crum, collector of the port of Charleston, S. C., is out in interviews denying the recent one published in a Chicago paper which quoted him as condoning lynching. The doctor says this is something he has never done and will not do. Pope Leo, who has been dying for several days and may be dead when these lines are read, was a broadguaged, Christian statesman in the fullest sense. He was too great a man to be affected by race prejudices of any kind, and in all other ways showed himself the peer of the ablest men of the times. The Gazette is indebted to the Cleveland Press, one of the very best daily newspapers in the country, for the timely and pertinent cartoon on the first page of this paper. It certainly illustrates an amusing relative condition of affairs in Russia and America, just now uppermost in the minds of the people. With the peonage cases of Georgia and Alabama, a stench in the nostrils of all decent people, and numerous lynchings, including burnings at the stake, staring the American people in the face, it strikes us that it takes a northerner or southerner with an unlimited amount of gall to counsel the forgetting of Harriet Beecher Stowe's greatest work, "Uncle Tom's Cabin." Afro-Americans of Columbia, S. C., are boycotting that city's electric railway, because on July 1 it was compelled to put on "Jim Crow" cars. We trust our people of that city will keep up the boycott, because they have it in their power to ruin the business of the street car line, so large is their population. The road has already begun to complain. It is only fair to say that it did not ask for the "Jim Crow" car law. The northern lecture efforts of Senators Tillman, Carmack and other southerners, in late years, are bearing fruit, as the recent lynchings in Delaware, Illinois and elsewhere in this section of the country attest. There is no influence that has been half as encouraging to would-be lynchers in the north as the one to which we have just referred. The successful mob demonstrations in the south have not had one-half the encouraging effect of the lectures and speeches of the pro-lynchers, Tillman, of South Carolina, and Carmack, of Tennessee. Someone should inform Secretary of the Navy Moody that there is one state in this Union which has an effective mob violence or anti-lynching law, and that that state is Ohio. His recent speech or interview on lynching makes it clear that the distinguished gentleman lacks this information. While we admit that Ohio has had some lynchings prior to the passage of its anti-lynching law and one since, we will not admit that the secretary is correct when he classes any lynching held in this state with the unfortunate Belleville, Ill., or Delaware affairs. All lynchings are most distressing, however. The Charlotte (N. C.) Afro-American Presbyterian says: "The best way to stop lynchings is for officers of the law to greet the mob with cold steel and hot lead, and punish the criminal in the shortest possible time and to the fullest extent under the forms of the law." When the mob has assembled and begun operations, that is the best and only way to stop lynchings—the use of cold steel and hot lead. However, legislation that will prevent the assembling of the mob, making unnecessary the use of cold steel and hot lead, and that will enable "the law to take its course" promptly and without undue delay, is still better than our esteemed confrere's "best way to stop lynchings." That is, too, just exactly what Ohio has in its famous mob violence or anti-lynching law. Employed 209 of Our Boys. The Western Union and Postal Telegraph companies of Atlanta, Ga. recently discharged 200 white boy messengers and gave their places to Afro-Americans. The companies wanted better service and got it. RESCUED FROM DEATH. A New York Woman Has a Thrilling Experience in the Yosemite Valley. Experience in the Yosemite Valley. Yosemite Valley, Cal., July 15.—Mrs. Johns, of New York City, was found Tuesday in a steep crevasse back of Sentinel Dome. On Monday Mrs. Johns started from Glacier Point hotel to walk to fissures located two miles from the hotel, and did not return. Tuesday morning searching parties started out and one of them made a discovery that filled the spectators with horror. Far down the Sentinel fissures, whose crevasses drop in some places for thousands of feet, suspended on a ledge that jutted out from the steep side, the almost lifeless form of Mrs. Johns was found by Mr. Potter, a hotel clerk. She was too weak to speak, but was able by signs to make Mr. Potter know that she still lived. After trying in vain to work his way down the mountain side to her, Mr. Potter was forced to go to the notel for help. Provided with ropes and carrying a stretcher, a party of eight went back to the crevasse. The relief party found Mrs. Johns' position to be critical in the extreme. She had fallen a distance of 300 feet from the crevasse walls and had partially broken her fall by catching at juniper bushes as she plunged through their branches. When the rope had been lowered, Mr. Potter descended to Mrs. Johns' side. There, lodged upon a two-foot ledge, with her clothing torn to fragments and her flesh scratched and bruised, lay Mrs. Johns, weak from exhaustion and lack of food and benumbed by the frosty night. The rope was tied around her waist and an effort made to help her to the rim above. This attempt proved futile because of her weight. By leaning over the abrupt precipice Mr. Potter could discern another and larger ledge 100 feet below, from which was a sheer drop of hundreds of feet. He determined to try this plan of rescue. Giving the order to those above to lower the rope, Mr. Potter swung the inanimate form of Mrs. Johns out from the tiny strip of rock upon which she had braced herself for 15 hours, and by swinging the rope to and fro Mr. Potter was able to lodge her body on the larger ledge. He then descended himself. Calling to one of the mountain guides above, Mr. Potter had him descend the rope to the ledge upon which he was resting. Then the two picked up Mrs. Johns and together they made their way around dangerous ledges and over yawning precipices until, almost worn out, they finally reached the rim above. GROSS IRREGULARITIES. Tobacco Dealers are Warned by the Internal Revenue Commissioner. Washington, July 15.—A circular of instructions to internal revenue officers and all others concerned has been issued by the commissioner of internal revenue, calling attention to the gross irregularities and violations of law that now exist in the handling and sale of manufactured tobacco, snuff, cigars and cigarettes by jobbers and dealers. A practice generally prevails of exposing these taxable articles for sale separated from the packages bearing the stamps denoting the payment of the internal revenue stamp. This, it is said, is a serious violation of the law and regulations which it is the purpose of the commissioner to remedy. Jobbers and dealers are given until November 1, 1903, to get their stock on hand in order, after which date all manufactured tobacco, snuff, cigars and cigarettes found exposed for sale not protected by the taxpaid stamps will be seized and the holders proceeded against in accordance with law. Blown to Pieces by Dynamite. New York, July 15.—Donati Vaneti, watchman for a Williamsbridge contractor, was blown into fragments by an explosion of dynamite last night and the fragments hurled in various directions. He was collecting tools and throwing them into a big tool box alongside a sewer excavation. It is supposed there were dynamite sticks in the box and that the concussion of the heavy tools exploded the sticks. Vaneti's head and trunk was thrown 75 feet up the road, his arms were found a hundred feet away in different directions and one leg was flung into a vacant lot 100 feet off. Oliver May Succeed Root: Oliver May Succeed Root. Washington, July 15.—It seems to be a general understanding among officials of the war department who ought to know that the name of Robert Shaw Oliver, who has just been appointed assistant secretary of war, will be favorably considered for secretary of war when Secretary Root restires from the cabinet. It has been known for some time that on the completion of certain important matters which Secretary Root has in hand he intends to return to New York to resume the practice of law. Just when this might happen has been and is still very indefinite. Convicted of Murder: Grand Rapids, Mich., July 15.—John Muste, a saloonkeeper, was found guilty of murder in the second degree here last night. He had intended to shoot and kill Alderman Charles A. Hilton, on the night of June 1, because the city council had refused to grant him a liquor license. He missed the alderman and killed Albert Schultz. Hunted Down. Wilkesbarre, Pa., July 15.—District Attorney Jones was notified by cable yesterday that Camilla De Lucca, wanted here on a charge of murder committed two years ago, is under arrest in Italy. De Lucca twice crossed the ocean to escape arrest. He is accused of killing Joseph Bottu. After the murder he was traced to Baltimore, where he boarded a ship for Genoa. Being pursued by the police there, he sailed for Brazil, but returned to Italy about a month ago. He was arrested while visiting his home. An Alleged Firebug in Court. Glens Falls, N. Y., July 15.—Sam Pasco was arraigned in the Warren county court at Lake George yesterday, charged with setting no less than 20 forest fires. These are alleged to have been started during June. Pasco is also charged, with stealing timber, with assault in the first degree and with burglary in the third degree. Pasco is a man of enormous physical strength, over six feet in height, a dead shot and typical mountaineer. He pleaded "not guilty" and asked that counsel be assigned to defend him. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 18, 1903. SEASHORE EXCURSION. Hid暑夏季 Outing at the Ocean at Low Earves via Pennsylvania Lines. The annual excursion to the Seashore via Pennsylvania Lines for the season of 1903 will be run Thursday, August 6th. Excursion tickets will be sold on that date to nine of the most attractive resorts on the Atlantic Coast, viz: Atlantic City, Cape May, Anglesea, Avalon, Holly Beach, Ocean City, Sea Isle City, Wildwood, N. J., and Rehoboth, Del. The round trip fare to either of the resorts named will be $13.50 from Cleveland. Proportionately low fares from other ticket stations on the Pennsylvania Lines. The return limit on excursion tickets will be twelve days, including date on which they are sold. This will allow ample time for a delightful sojourn at the seaside, and cover the customary ten days' vacation. The date of the excursion, August 6th, occurs at a convenient season for an outing. Business is generally at a standstill in August, and absence from home can readily be arranged. The mercury usually reaches the highest point the forepart of August, therefore it will be a pleasing diversion to spend a week or two in the invigorating ocean breezes and experience the unlimited pleasures which may be enjoyed at the ocean resorts. Further information about the Seashore excursion, special train service, etc., may be ascertained by consulting nearest Ticket Agent of the Pennsylvania Lines, or by addressing C. L./Kimball, A. G. P. A., Cleveland, O. This is for You. Reader' The old reliable Gazette desires an energetic and honest agent, and a good correspondent, in every city and town in Ohio and, neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents. We are especially desirous of hearing from persons in the following named cities: Zanesville, Martins Ferry, Gallipolis, Cambridge, Wellsville, Portsmouth, Steubenville, Akron, Youngstown, Chillicothe, Circleville, Portsmouth, Piqua, Urbana, Hamilton and Sandusky.

Our readers can oblige us greatly by sending at once the address of any good person or persons in any of the cities named above or others, to whom we can write relative to the matter.

New Brighton, Pa., Notes. Mrs. Chas. Coale is attending the M. M. convention at Bellefontaine.—Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Jones buried their 2-year-old child Wednesday.—Quite a number of our people attended the camp-meeting at Dakota grove by the Free Methodists.—Miss Emma Piper is the guest of her sister-in-law.—Missionary services were held Sunday at the Second Baptist church, Rochester.—Mr. Chas. Brown, of E. E. Pittsburg, is home visiting his mother during vacation.—Rev. Jesse Smith, who pastored here 20 years ago, preached at Wayman's chapel Sunday evening.—Mrs. Charles Ash is better.—The funeral services of Benjamin Bess took place from the A. M. E. church in Bridgewater Sunday, Rev. R. Brown, assisted by Rev. Hauk and Rev. W. H. Tyler, officiating.—Quite a number will attend the picnic given by the True Reformers at Ashtabula Harbor.—Mr. G. Bagby visited his sister, Mrs. Lillian Curtis. These Mongrel Words: New York City. The delegate of the asphalt workers to the Central Federated Union was an Afro-American and the C. F. U. held that there should be no distinction of race or color where labor is concerned. On this account it was also anxious not to hurt the feelings of any delegate. When a delegate in the course of a discussion said "there is a nigger in the woodpile" the chairman interrupted him to remark: "You must not use such a mongrel word as 'nigger.' There is a colored gentleman who is a delegate to this body." Had the mongrel words "mick" and "dutchman" been used with Irish and German delegates present, the chairman would have made the same ruling, and very properly, too. The Food Problem. Although the study of domestic economy is more diligently pursued by housekeepers than ever before, there is still a great majority who have not rightly considered the food problem or taken the means to solve it. Many who are adepts in culinary art do not understand the right proportions of the various kinds of foods necessary to the well-being of the human body. In an article in the August Delineator Dr. Grace Peckham Murray discusses the food problem, and her observation should bring light to many who do not rightly understand the subject. Another Student Winner New Haven, Conn.-William A. Perry, of Tarboro, N. C., was salutatorian of the graduating class of the Hopkins grammar school, a preparatory school for Yale. He is the third Afro-American student to win scholarship honors in Yale collegiate circles recently. The others were William Pickens, Little Rock, Ark., Yale, '04, and George W. Crawford, '03, Yale law school, Birmingham, Ala., the former taking the Ten Eyck prize in the junior class and the latter the Wayland prize. Crawford has also been selected as a Townsend prize speaker at the law school commencement. Elected Captain of Football Team. Exeter, N. H.—Ernest J. Marshall, '04, of Baltimore, Md., has been elected football captain at Phillips Exeter for next fall, as successor to Lemont R, Jenkins, '03, of Beverly, Mass., who resigned and left school. Marshall played at right guard in much of the last Andover game, and by his excellent work in the season of 1901 was given his "E," being the single member of the team who did not play in the Andover game to earn that distinction. He was the only logical candidate for the captaincy. Thousands of Slave Owners in the South. Washington, D. C.—Attorney General Knox has appointed Julius Sternberg special counsel to assist United States District Attorney Reese at Montgomery in handling 200 or more peonage cases. The total number in Alabama may reach 1,000. The system is practiced in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. The majority of offenders are wealthy planters and county officials with whom they connived to obtain this class of labor. Judge Tourgee Changed. Albion W. Tourgee, United State consul at Bordeaux, France, has been promoted to be consul general at Halifax, N. S. Judge Tourgee is the well-known author and writer, his best work being on the race question. "A Fool's Errand," "Bricks Without Straw," "A Royal Gentleman," "An Appeal to Caesar," "Pacto:ns Prime," were books that made his name a household word. He also published a monthly magazine called "The Basis," which was noted for the manner in which it treated the lynching evil and discussed the race question. Death of Mrs. Wm. Brown: Elyria, O.—Mrs. Brown, wife of Wm. Brown, a freight conductor on the Lake Shore road, died last week and was buried on Friday, July 10. Cause of death, tumor. She is survived by her husband and one son, Mr. and Mrs. George Greenbrier and daughter Emma, Mrs. John Kellogg, Mrs. James Tilley, all of Cleveland; Miss Elizabeth (Bessie) L. Purdy, of Erie, and others attended the funeral. SPECIAL SUMMER TOURIST FARES Via Pennsylvania Lines. Via Pennsylvania Lines.

LYNCHERS FOILED A Young Negro, Gulity of a Brutal Assault, Smuggled Out of a Filmsy Jail by a Deputy Sheriff. Albany, N. Y., July 15.—The quick wit of a deputy sheriff at Coxsaackie yesterday afternoon prevented the lynching of James Little, a 19-year-old negro hailing from Summernurst, N J., who early in the morning near New Baltimore criminally assaulted Emma Cole, aged 11 years, daughter of Joseph Cole, a farmer, living one mile back of New Baltimore. The negro escaped after threatening the child with death. Two other children had given the alarm and Mr. Cole and neighbors met the child coming home and at once organized a party to scour the woods. A description of the negro was sent to nearby towns, and an hour later he was captured on the railroad track near Coxsackie by Roy Cutler. He confessed the assault and was locked up. In the meanwhile the news of his capture was received in New Baltimore and a mob of 1,500 enraged farmers started for Coxsackie, augmented by a large number of striking Coxsackie molders and river men, all frankly vowing their intention to lynch the negro. Deputy Sheriff Sumner Van Loon, realizing that the coming of darkness would mean the breaking of the flimsy local lockup and the violent death of his prisoner, smuggled the negro out and took him down the river on the boat to Catskill, where there is a well built tail. The Cole child is seriously injured, but may recover. Her father and the neighboring farmers are in a terrible state of excitement and but for the deputy's quick action would certainly have lynched the negro. A Deal Involving $29,000,000. Philadelphia, July 15.--The Record says: "The United Gas Improvement Co. is about to take over a controlling interest in the Cincinnati Gas and Electric Co. This deal involves $29,000,000 and is a step preliminary to the consolidation of all the quasi-public concerns in and around Cincinnati. The deal will be followed by the transfer of the Cincinnati Traction Co., the Citizens' national bank and a newly organized trust company to the same interest, if not directly to the United Gas Improvement Co."

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. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING: New York, Nov. 14, 1902—This is to certify that I was out of work, out of money, and discouraged. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I went, but Dr. Shea was not in town. I found in Dr. Shea's place a good, kind friend, the friend I ever had. That friend was Dr. Ellarson, who took me in and treated me like a brother. Through Dr. Ellarson I got a position that very week. I had been to others. They took my money and did me no good. I bless the day I first met Dr. Ellarson. I would advise all in bad luck, slick or in trouble to or write to 651 Fulton street to Dr. Ellarson at the wonderful powers I was cured all right in days. If any one wants to know any more come to or write to Wm. A. Cook, 1855 Third avenue, New York, Borough Manhattan. New York, March 24, 1902.—This is to certify that my husband, had gone away and been away for a long time. I knew not where he was. I mourned for him night and day. I gave him a pillow for his bed, the wonderful things Dr. Shea was doing, a presence. I found Dr. Shea was dead, but Dr. Ellarson was in his place, who told me my husband was alive and well and would come home in a few weeks. To my joy all of it came true. I thank God there is one in our midst who can help me so much, when they are in sore trouble of mind as I was. S. Lenhart, 1700 Third avenue. Brooklyn, May 3, 1902.—I went to Dr. Ellarson when I was so sick I thought I would die. Dr. Ellarson cured me and made me feel like a new person. I am thankful to the good spirit that led me there and to God for pointing me to Mary E. Harris, 403 M. Avenue, Brooklyn, Newark, Sept. 14, 1902.—I was state that I was sick with a mysterious disease and in great trouble and distress for a long time, one seemed to understand my case. I went to many doctors, but none of them seemed to know what was the matter. None could do me any good. Hearing of the wonderful works being done by Dr. Shea, the last few years, I thought I would call to see him myself. I found Dr. Shea, 651 Fulton street, Dr. Ellarson, a most kind and sympathetic physician of wonderful insight and power, who is short time cured me sound and well. I can treat and heptily recommend Dr. Ellarson to all those in sickness or distress of any kind. Moses Jones, 13 Camp street, Newark, N. J. Orange, N. J., Feb. 1, 1903—My Dear Friend Dr. Ellarson: Your welcome letter safely to hand and I hasten to answer the same. I can truly say your medicines have done me.

I bless God that heard about you. From your true friend, Amelia Webb, 73 Central place, Orange, N. J. New York, Feb. 5, 1903.—Dear Dr. Ellarson: I will pen you these few lines to let you know how much your treatment has done for me. I know how much ache or pain, feefing fine. Feel like a extreme old girl. When I think of how long I suffered here I came to you. I feel I can never thank you enough for your kindness and for what you have done for me in bringing back my health. I remain ours truly. Sarah E.

In a letter received on Tuesday from the United States patent office under the date July 10, written by the chief clerk at the direction of the acting commissioner of patents., the following sentence occurs: "Referring to your inquiry of the 7th inst., you are informed that the records of the office do not show any patent issued recently to Wm. Douglass of the Douglass Automatic Grain Binder Company." This disposes of the report industriously circulated in this city for a week or ten days, to the effect that a patent had been issued or was to be issued in a week. Rev. H. C. Bailey was installed as pastor of Antioch church Sunday afternoon. All the local Afro-American ministers took an active part in the program. Rev. Stone (white) former pastor of the Cedar Avenue Baptist church, preacted on "Remember the Sabbath to Keep it Holy." The evening service was conducted by the pastor, who preached on "She Did What She Could." He dealt very largely with the Afro-American's condition in this country, giving briefly the cause and showing the effect. He said in part: "The very serious condition of the Negro at present was brought about by a very inferior caste of Negro—one of the lower walk in life, one who has no conception of his relation to society, and the effect of his selfish desire; such worthless, shiftless and immoral Negroes whose only object in life is to gratify that animal cravings at any cost to himself and his race." In conclusion, he said: "Let us as men stand for the right regardless of men, for all men are brothers, and out of one blood God made all men."

The Colored Home Journal, "a monthly magazine devoted to literature, science, art and traditions of the Negro race," published by the Home Publishing Co., at Pittsburg, has entered the journalistic field. Thomas S. Ewell, managing editor; Abraham T. Hall, associate editor; Geo. L. Taylor, president. The July number contains an article on "President Roosevelt and the Negro," by W. W. Blackman; two poems, "Your Mission," by Mrs. E. A. Yates, and "We Live in Deeds, Not Years," by Rev. P. A. Scott. There are also serials, short stories, etc. The magazine is 10 cents a copy, $1 a year. I. E. Oliver is local agent. The reorganized and strengthened Colored Co-Operative Publishing Co., of Boston, Mass., deserves credit for the splendid magazine it is getting out monthly. The June and July numbers are fine, instructive, interesting and splendidly illustrated. A copy should be in every intelligent Afro-American's home. The frontispiece of the last number is a rare old picture of 'Toussaint L'Ouverture and there is an article relative to him by Frederick Douglass that is indeed a literary gem. "How the Steamer Planter Run Away," by Eva B. Allensworth, is an historical article as interesting as it is valuable. Then follows "The Life of William Pickens," who sprang into prominence a month ago by winning the Ten Eyck prize at Yale university, and by giving to the public some very ridiculous views on Haiti and its people. He was evidently misled in this latter and will doubtless exhibit better judgment when mature. There are also a serial, interesting stories, editorial comment and a couple of editorials from The Gazette, in the July number. Fighting the "Grandfather Clause." New Orleans, La. — Suit was brought in the civil court recently by Mr. Paul Sigg, to test the constitutionality of the Louisiana suffrage law, and especially the infamous "grandfather clause." Several suits have already been brought in Louisiana to test this law and are now on their way up to the supreme court, but the Sigg suit is a new one. The other suits were brought by Afro-Americans demanding to have their names registered. Mr. Sigg is a qualified voter under the laws of Louisiana, being able to read and write and the owner of property, either of which would qualify him for the suffrage. He protests against the "grandfather clause" of the Louisiana constitution, which he says admits 5,000 illiterate and propertyless whites to the suffrage, while denying it to intelligent and wealthy Afro-Americans, thus discriminating against the latter. He appeals to the court for a mandamus, asking that the permanent roll of 1898, on which the names of those illiterate whites are registered be destroyed, and that the "grandfather clause" of the Louisiana suffrage law be declared unconstitutional, as being in violation of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. Father of 25 Children. Charleston, S. C.—Hero Tandell, who died in Sumter, S. C., a few days ago, aged 87 years, was a man after the heart of President Roosevelt, his progeny being almost as numerous as the sands of the sea. Hero was born in slavery in Colleton county in 1861. He was twice married. By his first wife he had 16 children and by 1816. He was twice married. By his immediate offspring are living. He had 25 children, 103 grandchildren and 45 great-grandchildren, a total muster of 163 Afro-American warriors against the enemy of "race suicide." The oldest son is 67 years old and a prosperous farmer in Sumter county. Several of the branches of the Tandell tree cast shadows in Charleston. Booker's White Stenographer. Booker T.
