One Year..... 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: HARRY C. SMITH, Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, { 1894 to 1896. { 1896 to 1898. { 1900 to 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. Frederick Douglass' article on Toussaint L'Ouverture, concluded in this issue of The Gazette, is a literary and historical gem worth preserving. Published twenty years and two weeks REGULARLY every week and ON TIME, too. That is The Gazette's record. It is with increasing sorrow we continue to hear of Paul Lawrence Dunbar's continued illness. We sincerely hope for our friend's early and complete recovery. Ohio district lodge, G. U. of O. F., will meet in Cleveland in August, 1905. Good! The local delegates to its recent meeting at Urbana must have "hustled" some. That costly "decoration," the National Negro Business league, will meet in Nashville, Tenn., next week. It has about as little excuse for living as the most useless thing in existence. A few of the leading daily papers of the country, like the Cleveland Plain Dealer, have at last begun to cry: "Too much Tillman." This is another good sign. The sooner they include Tom Dixon and John Temple Graves, the better. Midshipman Hugh C. Fry, of North Carolina, a member of the fourth class at the Naval academy, is under arrest on board the United States ship Santee, threatened with dismissal, because in a fit of anger he threw a glass and struck an Afro-American waiter. Fry ought to be "fired," and his "cracker" southern blood given a chance to cool. Fine (?) naval officers such "cattle" make. President Roosevelt's letter to Gov. Durbin, of Indiana, on mob violence and lynching, is one of the most timely, as well as one of the very best things he has done since becoming the chief executive of the nation. It is simply impossible to estimate the good it will do—the favorable impress upon the people of the country—favorable to the law, and to our people. Such an utterance from the head of this nation has long been sadly needed. More power to our President! From Gov. Terrell, of Georgia to the conference at Chautauqua Lake, New York, comes hundreds, yea thousands' of endorsements of President Roosevelt's outspoken letter—conservative, yet wonderfully strong argument—against mob violence and lynching. He has turned the tide with a vengeance. It will not be long, now, until such blathersites as Ben Tillman, Tom Dixon and John Temple Graves will find their stock in the notoriety trade gone and realize that they are a stench in the nostrils of an overwhelming majority of the people, the press and the pulpit of this country, many of whom have been too long passive when the subject of mob violence was being discussed. Thank the Lord! They are now beginning to speak out in no uncertain terms against the fearful contagious disease—lynching. In view of the actual facts, we must regard as exceedingly moderate and charitable the remarks recently made in the Italian Parliament when the question of the indemnity offered by our government to the families of Italians lynched in Mississippi two years ago was under discussion. "I can only hope," said one of the deputies, "that the great American nation, which in many respects stands at the head of civilization, will understand that lynching is a custom which certainly is no honor to so lofty a civilization, and that it will suppress it." Another deputy declared that "lynching is a shameful blot upon the good name of a civilized people." In concluding the editorial, the above is a part of, Leslie's Weekly, of New York City, says: "Until we have put some real check upon this cruel and savage tendency we shall not be in a position to throw stones at the thugs of India, the Bashi-Bazouks, or any other class of miscreants in other lands, for none of these are worse than our lynching mobs of the North and South." ECHOES OF THAT DANVILLE RIOT. Sheriff Whitlock, of Danville, Ill., refuses to bear the blame for the recent disgraceful riot in that town. In a letter to Gov. Yates, he calls attention to the fact that his several telegrams to the governor for the assistance of the state militia, although sent in plenty of time, were not answered until the mob had done its frenish work. There is in this, cause for an investigation and Gov. Yates should hasten to ascertain if possible, whether the sheriff's telegrams were held up any. On last week Friday Sheriff Whitlock "got busy" and began to do a little "business" on his own account, arresting Bessie Armstrong, (white), who was promptly identified as the woman who climbed into a wagon across the street from the jail and advised the mob to shoot down Sheriff Whitlock during the attack on the jail July 25. Immediately after the sheriff fired along the groove in the steel rail battering ram with his riot gun, her shrill voice was heard above the shouts of anger and pain saying: "Shoot the sheriff; somebody kill that Whitlock." The matter is now in the hands of the grand jury. Deputy Coroner Hall, of Danville, identified the woman as the one he saw standing near the wagon on the night of the riot at the jail. Good! It is to be hoped the grand jury will do its clear duty quickly and well. Likewise the courts. Other indictments should and we hope will soon follow. Lynching and mob violence can be stopped in Illinois as well as in Ohio, and should be as soon as possible. A BAD SUGGESTION. The Ohio State Journal is wrong in suggesting "Negro Crews for War Vessels" because there are "Negro regiments in the army." The separation in the army is wrong in principle and ought to be stopped and done away with entirely. It will be, eventually. Why not carry the Journal suggestion a little further and put all the Irish, German and Jewish-Americans (in the navy and army) in crews and regiments to themselves? There would be just as much reason and judgment in such a proceeding and particularly in the case of the Jewish-Americans, as there is in the Journal's suggestion. This government of ours already winks at too much insulting discrimination against certain of its CITIZENS, to take on any more at any one's suggestion. The boasted freedom, equality before the law and protection of American citizens, is being roundly ridiculed abroad, particularly in Russia, France and Turkey, as the result of just such senseless discrimination as the Journal calls attention to in the army and suggests for the navy, and also as a result of state disfranchisement laws, mob violence and lynching. The following editorial from the Chicago Public, is pertinent: "Henry Rochefort, the Paris journalist, has gathered the horrible facts about Negro lynchings in the United States and published them in France in comparison with the horrible facts about the massacre of Jews in Kishineff. He does this as a suitable commentary upon the American protests to the Czar. The humiliating thing about it is the truth of what is suggested. With one accord the press of the United States has denounced the massacre of Jews in Russia, and thousands of our people have joined in a petition about it to the czar; yet with few exceptions the American people are silent when they do not applaud, and the American press is dumb when it does not approve, the savage outrages upon Negroes at home. It is futile to try to make distinctions between persecution of Jews and of Negroes. The distinctions lack that without which no distinction is valid—a difference to be distinguished. In one case as in the other, race antagonism is the cause of these crimes. In Russia the hated race is the Jews; in the United States it is the Negro; in both the animus is a common feeling that the persecuted race is inferior. Of all the morally wretched defenders of this American crime, therefore, the American Jew who defends Negro lynchers while denouncing Russian massacres—and some do—is most contemptible." THAT NAVY ENLISTMENT LIE. Uncovered by the Assistant Secretary of the Navy Barling in a Letter to The Gazette's Editor. Navy Department, Washington, D. C., August 5, 1903 Hon. Harry, C. Smith, Editor Gazette—Sir: The department is in receipt of yours of 4th instant, enclosing clipping to effect that Negroes are to be barred from enlistment in the navy. This report is erroneous. Instructions to recruiting officers make no discrimination with respect to race or color. The subject of eliminating the Negro from the service, or barring his enlistment, has not been contemplated or considered by the department. Respectfully, CHAS. H. DARLING, Acting Secretary. Just as The Gazette predicted some time ago—that navy enlistment story relative to barring Afro-Americans from that department of the government service, is a lie, pure and simple. The Associated Press' southern sympathizing liar "got busy" again. That was all there was to it. BOOKER BROADENS. Taiks in the Proper Strain On the Alleged "Hace Problem" to a Large Audience. Petersburg, Ill.—"Race hatred is no solution for any problem on earth. No race can go on year after year cherishing hatred for another without becoming narrow and degraded. There should be Christianity enough in this broad land for the negro and white man to dwell side by side in peace. The Negro does not intend going to the Philippines or to any other country, but he will remain in America, and he will be found to be as he has always been, true to the stars and stripes." These utterances of Booker T. Washington were heard with approval by an audience of 4,000 people at the Old Salem Cnautauqua last Friday afternoon. He discussed the subject, "The Race Problem in the South," and while no specific mention was made of the recent lynchings in Illinois, the closing words of his peroration, by implication, had reference to the late disturbances in this state and other parts of the country. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1903. MOB VIOLENCE. President Roosevelt, in a Letter to Gov. Burton, of Indiana, Condemns It in all Forms - Anarchy the Fore-runner of Tyranny. Oyster Bay, N. Y., Aug. 10.—In a letter, the publication of which was authorized yesterday, President Roosevelt commends Gov. Durbin, of Indiana, for the attitude he assumed recently respecting lynching. The president also embraces the opportunity to express his own views in reference to lynching and mob violence generally, pointing out that mob violence is merely one form of anarchy and that anarchy is the forerunner of tyranny. President Roosevelt's letter to Gov. Durbin follows: "My Dear Gov. Durbin: Permit me to thank you as an American citizen for the admirable way in which you have vindicated the majesty of the law by your recent action in reference to lynching. I feel that you have made all men your debtors who believe, as all far-seeing men must, that the well-being, indeed, the very existence, of the republic depends upon that spirit of orderly liberty under the law which is as incompatible with mob violence as with any form of despotism. Of course mob violence is simply one form of anarchy, and anarchy is now, as ft always has been,/ the handmaiden and forerunner of tyranny. "All thoughtful men must feel the gravest alarm over the growth of lynching in this country, and especially over the peculiarly hideous forms so often taken by mob violence when colored men are the victims—on which occasions the mob seems to lay most weight, not on the crime, but on the color of the criminal. In a certain proportion of these cases the man lynched has been guilty of a crime horrible beyond description; a crime so horrible that as far as he himself is concerned he has forfeited the right to any kind of sympathy whatsoever. "In such cases, moreover, it is well to remember that the criminal not merely sins against humanity in unpardonable fashion, but sins particularly against his own race, and does them a wrong far greater than any white man can possibly do them. Therefore, in such cases the colored people throughout the land should in every possible way show their belief that they, more than all others in the community, are horrified at the commission of such a crime and are peculiarly concerned in taking every possible measure to prevent its recurrence and to bring the criminal to immediate justice. "Men who have been guilty of a crime like rape or murder should be visited with swift and certain punishment and the just effort made by the courts to protect them in their rights should under no circumstances be perverted into permitting any mere technicality to avert or delay their punishment. The substantial rights of the prisoner to a fair trial must, of course, be guaranteed, but, subject to this guarantee, the law must work swiftly and surely and all the agents of the law should realize the wrong they do when they permit justice to be delayed for technical or insufficient reasons. We must show that the law is adequate to deal with crime by freeing it from every vestige of technicality and delay." Two of Its Occupants Escaped. Rockland, Me., Aug. 10.—Four young men of this city lost their lives Saturday night by the sinking of a gasoline launch eight miles from here. Two of the party were saved. The dead are: Henry K. Crocker, 23, son of Superintendent Jonathan W. Crocker, of the Rockland and Camden Water Co. and a graduate of the University of Maine. Frank F. Veazie, 21, son of Mrs. Edward Veazie, of this city, and a student of the University of Maine. Raymond C. Hall, 19, son of Capt Hudson Hall. Charles W. Holmes, 23, son of Capt John H. Holmes, and a traveling salesman. The party started out in the launch for Pleasant Beach. When off Ash Point the launch became entangled in a fish weir. An attempt was made to turn back, when suddenly there was a flash and the launch was enveloped in flames. The six occupants of the craft leaped overboard. The bodies were recovered. Accident Caused Nine Deaths. Philadelphia, Aug. 10.—Five additional deaths occurred Sunday as the result of the accident Saturday at the Philadelphia National League baseball park, making a total of nine fatalities. Two hundred victims were treated at the various hospitals and it is believed that fully 100 more received attention at drug stores in the vicinity of the baseball grounds. A board walk which overhung the left field bleachers fell to the street. "Don't Send Me to Prison." "You were shooting craps, eh?" and Judge Whelan looked down somewhat savagely upon 16-year-old Willie Barber, of 490 Erie street. "Yes, but don't send me to prison, judge, or my uncles will go hungry." "Your uncles go hungry? Do you support them" "Yes, judge; they're both blind and I give 'em all the money I make." Judge Whelan investigated the boy's story, and, finding it true, gave him a suspended sentence. A Woman Heads This Bank. Richmond, Va.—Mrs. Maggie L. Walker has the distinction of being the first woman, white or colored, ever elected president of a bank in this region. She was chosen on July 30 head of the St. Luke's Penny savings bank, under the auspices of the order of St. Luke. The institution will open for business on September 1 with $75,000 in deposits. President Walker for several years was a teacher in the colored public schools here. She has the respect of both races. Cleveland in 1905. Urbana, O.—Ohio district grand lodge, G. U. O. of O. F., re-elected its old officers last week at its meeting here, selected Cleveland as its meeting place in August, 1905, and adjourned. The Household of Ruth did likewise. Both hold biennial sessions in the future. The "Major Cleans Up in Lunnon." London, England.—"Major" Taylor, champion American cyclist, beat Jenkins and Piard in a mile race here last Saturday.

SLAVE OF OLD "JEFF." Who Very Foolishly Refused Freedom, Dies at Ripe Old Age of 102—Interesting Career. Springfield, O.—John Marshall, who claimed to be 102 years old, died on the 3d at his home in the rear of 353 South Fountain avenue. For 12 years he was a slave of Jefferson Davis, "president of the Confederacy." When "Jeff" was about 20 years of age he attempted to break a colt and as he was about to be dashed to death against a gate Marshall saved his life. For this act Marshall was offered his freedom, but very foolishly refused it. Some time later while "Jeff" was at Richmond a cousin, who disliked Marshall, sold him to one of the worst slave owners in the state. He was taken to New Orleans, where his experiences were of the most brutal character. He escaped and took refuge in the famous Black swamp, but was recaptured and returned to New Orleans for punishment. That punishment left Marshall a cripple for life. After freedom he came north, and while walking along a street in Cincinnati ran across his wife on a street corner. They had been separated for ten years. Marshall lived in the Queen City until 1875.

SHEA, M. To 761 Fulton Street, Brooklyn. DR. ELLARSON, and TRANCE CLARIVOYANT, can do all for you that Dr. Shea did, and has even still greater power. Glives the names of dead and living friends, tells whom and when you will marry. Can be consulted on all affairs of life. Dr. ELARSON will not for any price flatter you, but will give you facts without nonsense. Will tell you of absent friends, journeys, business, lawsuits, health or anything you wish to know about. Ask no questions, don't ask you to write the name, don't try to pump you up the way but tells you right off. Is thoroughly endorsed by leading Spiritualists everywhere; has credentials no one else can. Can give thousands of references to both white and colored patrons. Thirteen years practice in Brooklyn and New York will prove to you that Dr. Ellarson can give you satisfaction as no one else can. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all your doings; succeeds when all others fail. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all from Dr. Ellarson. Positive help and satisfaction or no pay. You will find it lucky to consult this refined Christian physician and wonderful Medium. Has a medicine that will cure drunkenness, can be given patients, not knowing it. Thousands are now RICH. HAPPY AND SUCCESSFUL In all their undertakings while those who neglect Dr. Ellarson's advice are still laboring against poverty and adversity. Through a perfect knowledge of chemistry can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. In love affairs never fails. Has the secret of winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is the curse of Spiritualism that there are so many who claim powers they do not possess. Beware of such and those who copy parts of my advertisement. They have neither gifts, credentials, nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away on such. DR. ELLARSON understands thoroughly the diseases, spells and influences the race is subject to. Is now and always has been a true friend to the colored people and always had a large patronage from them. 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 found that Dr. Shea was dead; but I found Dr. Shea alive. That friend was the best friend I ever had. That friend was the best friend, 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 had luck, sick or in trouble to or write to 651 Fulton street to Dr. Ellarson at wonderful powers. By Dr. Ellarson's wonderful powers I could all right 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 up as dead, but hearing of the wonderful things Dr. Shea was doing, I resolved to consult him. 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 people so much, when they are in sore trouble of mind as I was. S. Lenhart, 1750 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 such a good friend to give me such relief. Mr. D. Harrison, 193 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn. Newark, N.J., wish to state that I was sick with a mysterious disease and in great trouble and distress for a long time. No one seemed to understand my case. I was 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 was dead and gone, but I found in his old apartment on street, Dr. Ellarson, a most kind and sympathetic physician of wonderful insight and power, who could cure me sound and well. I can truly and healthly 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 good in the world, and you are welcome to use them in the paper as I want every one to know that they have helped me so much. I cannot tell you how much and how much I thank you. I was lying helpless in bed and no one seemed to help me; until my brother went to you and got something which brought me right up on my feet and able to work again. I bless God that I heard about you. From your true friend, Amelia Webb, 73 Central place, Orange, N. J. New York, Feb. 5, 1902.—Den* Dr. Ellarson: I will pen you these two lines to let you know how and your treatment has done for me. I am without an or pain, feceling me. Feel like a sixteen year old. When I think of how long I suffered before I came to you, I feel I can never thank you because for your kindness and for what you have done for me in bringing back my health. I remain yours truly, Sarah E. Cox, The Strathmore Flats, corner 52nd street and Broadway, New York. DR. ELLARSON can show thousands such as the above.

The even- ing subject, “Drifting With the Tide.” ‘The Sunday school was visited by Mr, Hamilton, former superintendent of Quinn Chapel Baptist church, Chicago, who gave a very interesting review of the lesson. : ‘According to the reports of those in attendance, St. Andrew's Episcopal mission excursion to Put-in-Bay on ‘Monday proved the most disorderly and distressing affair conducted for our people for a long time. There ‘were shooting and disgraceful scenes ‘on the boat that cannot be deseribed in print in any decent publication. Some of the crowd were simply out- rageous and unmanageable. It is said that the boat can never again be se- cured by our eee: The excursion was a most uhfortunate affair from every viewpoint, it seems, Mr. and Mrs: Howard, who moved from Sterling avenue to Giddings ave- nue this week, had a hot set-to last Saturday, owing to a little pleasantry on his part which ought not to have terminated so unfortunately.

The concert and promenade given in the log cabin, Euclid Beach Park, last week Thursday evening, under the management of The Afro-Ameri- can Entertainment Bureau, was a suc- cess in every respect. It was _pro- nounced by many, the finest affair of the kind ever given by Cleveland tal- ent and promoters. ‘The conduct of the affair was remarkably good, de- serving special praise. The Hum- phrey Company, who control the cab- in, praised the management for the magnificence of the affair as well as the deportment of the attendants, The district conference of the Sec- ond M.

Last year he wrote over theassumed name of a schoolgirl at Memphis, Tenn. This year he lays the scene of his vul- gar story in Chicago and ealls himself Noah D. Smith. A man that is capa- ble of using his paper to make such an unprovoked, vulgar, low, mean at- tack on a lady of the race of Mrs. Barnett’s standing is a moral leper and a sneaking cur.

THE PINKHAM CURES ATTRACTING GREAT ATTENTION AMONG THINKING WOMEN. M Mrs. Frances Stafford, of 243 E. 114th St., N.Y. City, adds her testimony to the hundreds of thousands on Mrs. Pinkham's files. When Lydia E. Pinkham's Remedies were first introduced skeptics all over the country frowned upon their curative claims, but as year after year has rolled by and the little group of women who had been cured by the new discovery has since grown into a vast army of hundreds of thousands, doubts and skepticisms have been swept away as by a mighty flood, until to-day the great good that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and her other medicines are doing among the women of America is attracting the attention of many of our leading scientists, physicians and thinking people. Merit alone could win such fame; wise, therefore, is the woman who for a cure relies upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Genuine Carter's Little Liver Pills.

SHORT NEWS NOTES Information of Recent Date Collected in Various Ways and Condensed for the Convenience of Our Busy Readers. In deciding several pending automobile cases the court of special sessions at New York City in a case against James T. McWilliams held that the provisions of the Bailey law requiring owners of automobiles to register with and obtain certificates from the secretary of state is unconstitutional. A thousand laborers employed in the building trades of Minneapolis, Minn., are on strike for a raise in pay from 20 to 25 cents an hour. Advices received from Monastir indicate that the situation in Macedonia is constantly growing worse. At a meeting of the Turkish ministers it has been decided therefore to adopt measures of extreme severity in order to suppress the revolution. It is reported that Albanian troops will be employed, in which event massacres are almost inevitable. The strike of the employees of the Buffalo (N. Y.) Union Furnace Co. has been settled and the men have returned to work. The company will not recognize the Furnace Workers' union, but will deal with the various strikers through the unions with which they are affiliated. The strike originally was declared as a result of trouble with a blacksmith employed by the company. Five hundred men quit work. During a family fight in the town of Seif, Wis., Gottlieb Schultz shot and killed his daughter, Mrs. Patrick Leydon. Leydon himself received a bullet in the chest and is expected to die. Schultz's skull was crushed, but he is expected to recover. Mrs. Schultz was injured also. Schultz has been awaiting trial for an alleged attempt to kill his wife and is believed to be mentally unbalanced. Three of the 16 mills of the Homestead (Pa.) steel works have closed down for necessary repairs, throwing out of employment about 500. The suspension at this time is not unusual and the officials say is without significance. During the next few weeks many of the mills and furnaces of the Carnegie Steel Co. will be closed down for repairs. Sheriff L. W. Williamson, of De Soto county, Mississippi, was shot and probably mortally wounded at Hernando, Miss., in a pistol duel with County Surveyor W. H. Moody, of De Soto county. The American Window Glass Co. has officially announced that the wage scale for the coming fire in all of its pot plants has been signed. The new scale is an advance of 10 per cent. above last year and is the highest ever paid in the glass trade. The company also makes known that only 300 pots, or about one-fourth of its former capacity, will be operated. The other three-fourths, comprising the tank plants, will be equipped with the new blowing machines. A tornado passed through the thickly populated mining district north and east of Pittsburg, Kan., destroying hundreds of houses, mine tipples and buildings of every description and converting into ruin a strip of thickly populated territory eight miles long and two miles wide. At least two persons were killed and fully 60 were injured. The textile strike in Philadelphia which was inaugurated ten weeks ago has been practically declared off, 20,000 of the strikers through their executive board deciding to return to work. It is estimated that about 60,000 textile strikers were on a strike and the determination of one-third of these to return to work it is believed will force the collapse of the strike. The porte has sent instructions to the valis of the Armenian provinces of Asia Minor, holding them personally responsible for any Kurdish excesses and ordering vigorous measures to be taken to prevent fighting. Little Ted Kendall, who disappeared from the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Kendall, in Indianapolis, and for whom a diligent search had been made by the neighbors and the entire police force, was found dead in a cistern a few doors from the Kendall home. It is supposed he walked into the cistern and was drowned At Columbia, S. C., Lizzie Aiken, a negro woman, 48 years old, has been committed to jail for beheading her two daughters, 3 and 5 years old. The heads were severed with an axe and she threw them into a fire. The woman admitted the crime, saying she had received a message from God ordering the crime. Almost all work is at a standstill in the manufacturing jewelry trade at New York City as a result of the lockout by the New York Manufacturing Jewelers' association. Some men are at work, but their numbers are confined to non-union operatives and those who have individual agreements with the bosses. Thomas J. Stewart, commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, accompanied by the Philadelphia delegates, has left Philadelphia for San Francisco to attend the national encampment of the Grand Army. Thirty-five battle flags that were carried in the civil war were taken along by the delegates to be carried in the encampment parade. Parsons, Kan., was visited recently by the most severe windstorm that ever struck the city and heavy damage resulted. The new blacksmith and boiler shops of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas railroad were demolished, while in the residence sections many small buildings were wrecked. Several stores were badly wrecked. At Kieff, Russia, three workmen were killed and 24 wounded when the Cossacks fired on and charged strikers who were attempting to interfere with railroad traffic. The rioters numbered 2,000. A magistrate, an officer and several soldiers were injured by stones. At Atlantic Highlands, N. J., Charles Finch, the town's only policeman, was ordered out of Murphy's saloon by Bartender John Vanderberger. Finch returned with a small cannon used for firing salutes at the bathing pavilion. Placing it on the bar, he discharged it in Vanderberger's face. One of the bartender's eyes was shot out and his face horribly mangled. A general lockout affecting more than 1,400 jewelry workers was decided on at a recent meeting of the New York Manufacturing Jewelers' association on account of demands by the New York local of the International Jewelry Workers' union. THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1903. Bert Leroy Woodward, a trapshooter of international reputation and a member of the American team which contested in the international tournament in England two years ago, is dead at Brockton, Mass. Thomas Tharp, who was a witness for the defense in the Curtis-Jett trial at Cynthiana, Ky., went to his home at Elkatawa, Ky., set fire to the house and stood guard over the blazing building and shot at all who attempted to extinguish the flames. The aged father of Tharp received a slight flesh wound. The San Francisco Examiner says that Dr. August Greth, an aeronaut of 20 years' experience, has made an ascension from that city in a dirigible balloon or airship which he constructed. He did not cut loose from cable connections with the ground, but claimed that the balloon was fully under control and that he steered it up and down, back and forth, and around at will. The police of Philadelphia have arrested four merchants charged with violating the law regarding the sale of firearms to minors. The arrests are the outcome of an investigation into the cause of death of four children from lockjaw, the result of pistol wounds. In a deposition given before Commissioner Saunders at St. Louis Thomas A. Cleage, the main factor of the Cleage Commission Co., admitted that he could not tell within $100,000 what he had paid his brokers, and that he could not tell within $500,000 what he lost in corn last December. A contract has been awarded by the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Co. for additional passenger equipment, involving an expenditure of about $600,000, and with this new rolling stock the company will be equipped to handle the world's fair business to and from St. Louis next year. The order covers 40 passenger cars and 40 baggage and postal cars. At Carthage, Mo., 50 prisoners in the county jail mutinied at midnight and made a demand for better food. The fire department was called out and turned a stream of water on the prisoners, who, after turning the lights out in the corridor, hurled empty bottles at the firemen and jail officials. One deputy was cut in the face. The prisoners after considerable trouble were subdued. George Kusic, aged 17, of South Sharon, Pa., is insane because of the sudden shrieking of a locomotive whistle on the Erie railroad. He has been in this country but a short time and never saw a locomotive at close range. Warden Bridges, of the state penitentiary at Charlestown, Mass., is responsible for an innovation in the line of exercise for prisoners. He has organized two baseball nines from prisoners in the institution, who play every Saturday, and those of their fellow convicts that have earned the privilege by good behavior are permitted to witness the game. Positions on the teams also come as rewards of merit and a consequent improvement in discipline has resulted. Gen. Miles has accepted the office of president of the Thomas Jefferson Memorial association and the association announces that his election is for the remainder of its existence. The German government's efforts to check the tropical worm disease among the mine operatives in the Essen district have proved unsuccessful. The disease is spreading. In consequence of the assassination of King Alexander and Queen Draga and the subsequent attitude of the Servian military officers, both Russia and Austria have decided to send home all the Servian officers studying in their military schools. John F. Carnell, 63 years old, a veteran clerk of the office of the auditor for the postoffice department, formerly of Iowa, has been arrested at Washington by postoffice inspectors on the charge of opening letters addressed to the auditor and appropriating the contents. Matter sent in decoy letters was found on his person. Manager Clark Griffith, of the New York American baseball club, has sent a challenge to Manager McGraw, of the New York Nationals, to play a series of seven games on the grounds of the two clubs immediately after the close of the baseball season. Reginald C. Vanderbilt, who has just returned from a European trip with his bride, paid $8,000 in duty to the collector of the port of Boston. This is the largest collection ever made from a returned tourist at that port. It is said the examiners checked up Mr. Vanderbilt's declaration item by item, requiring two hours to go through 40 trunks which the couple brought in. The Hale Johnson monument will be unveiled at Newton, Ill., with appropriate exercises on August 21, the anniversary of Mr. Johnson's birth. The monument has been erected by the prohibitionists of the United States. Mr. Johnson was chairman of the prohibition committee and national committeeman at the time of his assassination, election day last year. He was the vice presidential candidate on the prohibition ticket in 1896. A 9-year-old boy who gives his name as Percy Bigelow and who says his father is a wealthy resident of Fort Wayne, Ind., was found by the police of Chicago in a famished condition in a box car in the Wabash freight yards. He said he had been seized by two tramps while playing in front of his home, thrown into the car and kept a prisoner. At Iron Mountain, Mich., two miners, John Lang and John Meyers, were killed by the explosion of a box of dynamite at the seventh level of the Hamilton-Chapin mine. The men were suffocated by the smoke that followed the explosion. In a circular issued by the Boston police giving a description of Willard S. Allen, absconding treasurer of the Preachers' Aid society of the New England Methodist conference, the amount of the embezzlement is given as $110,000, a figure considerably in excess of former estimates. Upon application of the Harbison-Walker Refractories Co., a preliminary injunction has been granted by the Cambria county (Pa.) courts restraining the strikers from interfering with the workmen at the Figart plant. The strike was inaugurated at all the plants of the company three months ago. With all the ceremonial which the Roman Catholic church assumes on festal occasions, John M. Farley, archbishop of the New York archdiocese, was invested with the pallium at the hands of Mgr. Diomedes Falconio, apostolic delegate to the United States, in St. Patrick's cathedral, New York, the other day. ADVERTISING LOST. Clover Scheme Spoiled by the Over Carefulness of a Concerned Friend. As an advertisement the man had had prepared some pretty little match boxes filled with matches; and he made it a point to leave one of them, as if by accident, wherever he happened to be, relates the Chicago Post. "That's more effective than giving them away," he said. "The man who finds one will give more attention to it than will the man to whom one is given." But his friend persisted in ignoring this scheme. He picked up the match box and restored it to the owner, whereupon the owner would leave it again. "Never mind it," he would say; but the friend persisted in minding it to the extent that he always lagged behind when a match box was left. One day the advertiser happened to be in the friend's room and came upon about a gross of his match boxes. "Where did you get these?" he asked. "Oh, I've picked them up where you have left them anywhere," was the reply. "No use buying matches when you are giving them away, you know." And now the advertiser is trying to figure out what good the advertising on those boxes does him. SUCH A MISUNDERSTANDING! The Man Who "Rubbered" Was Not Familiar with Talk of the Railway. "When I saw that she was almost beyond my control," said the railway engineer, "I threw her over—" "Brute!" ejaculated a gentleman wearing eye glasses and grassy whiskers, who was unintentionally straining his ears to overhear the conversation, relates judge. "It didn't do any good!" continued the engineer, "so I shut her off; but still she was jumping pretty hard and sliding around—" "Infamous!" said the grassy-whiskered man. "Sliding around; so I give her air—" "Ah, then you have some little instinct of kindness," growled the incensed listener. "But it wasn't any use, and so I jumped and got away just when she began to smash things." "And I don't blame her one bit!" asserted the man with the eye glasses and the grassy beard. "It's a pity she didn't smash you, so you couldn't come here and boast of your cruelty. I am not surprised at the number of divorces nowadays." ACCORDING TO CABBY The Trips of a Woman Philanthropist Must Be Arranged with the Deity. A Brooklyn woman whose philanthropic efforts are mainly directed toward making life happier and better for the little folks of the crowded sections of the borough tells a good story on herself, says the Eagle, of that city. As her field of endeavor is not confined to one section of that borough, she generally travels around from settlement to mission or recreation ground in a cab. One day she was on her way to a gathering of her proteges when she espied a masculine acquaintance who had, on a previous occasion, manifested some interest in her work, and invited him to accompany her. He accepted, and they traveled down lanes and through byways heretofore unknown to him. In one of the narrowest and most crowded streets in a down-town quarter the fair philanthropist stopped to pay a visit. When she entered the cab again the man said: "You have an arrangement with the Deity as well as the cabman when you come, on one of these expeditions, haven't you?" "What do you mean?" was the astonished reply. "Well, your cab driver says that only the Lord knows where you good ladies are going when you start on trips of this sort." VALUABLE LAND. Homesteader "Ran In" Half HIs Claim on an "Innocent" for Good Measure. Through the hot, dusty roads of Kansas a would-be homesteader was pursuing his way to the Cherokee strip in search of one of Uncle Sam's free homes. He had his family and goods in a shaky wagon, which was drawn by two feeble horses near dissolution, says the Kansas City Journal. "Whar you bound?" asked a farmer at whose house he stopped for water. "Fer a hundred an' sixty acres o' government land in th' strip," responded the traveler, bombastically. A few months later the same man stopped again at the Kansas farmer's for water, this time traveling north. "Watcher done with yer hundred an' sixty acres?" asked the farmer, with a note of suspicion. "See them mules thar?" queried the homesteader, pointing to a fine pair of animals which were harnessed to the prairie schooner. "I traded 80 acres o' my claim fer 'em." "Watcher do with th' other 80?" "Don't give it away till I get farther off. Th' feller was an innocent, an I run th' other 80 acres in on 'im without his known' it." She Didn't Care. Maplehill, Ia., Aug. 10th.—"I felt as though I didn't care whether I lived or died, I was so miserable all the time." In these words does Miss Nellie Barfoot, of this place, describe her condition. Every woman who is, or has been, sick and suffering will understand and appreciate just how Miss Barfoot felt, and there are no doubt many thousands of similar cases. It is truly an awful thing when a woman gets so low that she can say "I don't care whether I live or die." But Miss Barfoot tells a different story today, and her words should guide every suffering woman to the path of health and happiness. "I used Dodd's Kidney Pills, and I am cured. I feel like a new person, and I would say to every woman suffering as I did, give Dodd's Kidney Pills a trial, and you will not be disappointed. They are worthy of the highest praise."

Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally Called Dyspepsia---Something to Produce Artificial Digestion is Generally Taken. Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host of Other Digestive Remedies Has Been Invented. These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat of the Difficulty, Which is Really Catarrh. E X. U, S. Senator M. C. Butler from South Carolina, was Senator from that state for two terms. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washington, D. C., says: "I can recommend Peruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It is indeed a wonderful medicine besides a good tonic."---M. C. Butler. The only rational way to cure dyspepsia is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to artificial methods. Peruna has cured more cases of dyspepsia than all other remedies combined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as in any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy for dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is generally dependent upon catarrh. ervous neuralgic headaches BACKLY CURED BY ROMO BELTZER EVERYWHERE. 10¢ OCUM REMEDIES FREE EASY TO TAKE OZOMULSION THE FOOD THAT DOES GOOD Cod Liver Oil Emulsion Par Excellence Sold by JAS INHOMERIES IN LUMB BORNES VIRGINIA Owen Two Pluses For ONE DOLLAR TEM nt That Cures CONSUMPTION FREE MEDICINE TO ALL.
