All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH. Editor and Propretor THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, {1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. CLEVELAND. SATURDAY. APRIL 16, 1904. 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. In a communication, part of which we publish on our first page today, Prof. DuBois has again "struck the key note." Read it carefully, thoughtfully. If you must get mobbed have it done in Ohio, where they pay your heirs and legal descendants $5,000.—Indianapolis Freeman. We merely republish the above that our conferes may "read between the lines" and judge of the mental calibre of the individual "grinding out" editorial notes for that paper, and note the animus which prompts his comments on our Ohio Anti-Lynching law. A great (?) fellow this, eh? George A. Myers, the well-known political leader at Cleveland, O., and who was a close personal friend of the late Senator Hanna, has the credit of giving Mr. Hanna the name which followed him through his entire political career. That name was "Uncle Mark."—Frankfort (Ky.) Blue Grass Bugle. Surely Dr. E. E. Underwood, editor of the Bugle, did not write the above. He knows better, having been a resident of Cleveland some years ago, and still somewhat familiar with conditions and individuals here. Myers is not and never has been a "political leader at Cleveland," or anywhere else. Nor was he "a close personal friend of the late Senator Hanna." He was only one of Hanna's barbers, as he confessed in an interview published a few weeks ago in a local daily paper, and it is wrong to attempt to continue a different impression. Nor has Myers "the credit of giving Mr. Hanna the name 'Uncle Mark';" for he never originated nor gave it to him. Our contemporaries should cease republishing the silly stories relative to Myers and Hanna. They are threadbare and absolutely without foundation in fact. LET US BE JUST. An eminent man and distinguished United States Senator has been within the present month sentenced to imprisonment for six months and to pay a penalty of $2,500 for unlawfully receiving money. We heartily sympathize with Senator Burton that he is called to pass through such a trying ordeal. His past record gave promise of a grand and prosperous career. We regret the misfortune which has so abruptly blackened a career which seemed to be one of remarkable usefulness. Forwardned is to be forearmed, and we could wish a thousand times that the Senator had been so stayed against any seduction that might present itself. Occupying one of the highest places in the gift of the nation the affair affords one of the most pitiable spectacles ever yet brought before the American people. A Senator of the United States and a man of letters and learning is at once reduced to a condition beneath that, of the common people. How has the mighty fallen? He has fallen from the highest pinnacle of American fame and glory. At one time, Senator Burton stood without a peer save in the nation's senate. He held a power which the wealth and the aristocracy of the country might well envy, but today he stands a disfranchised and rejected citizen. The misfortune of Senator Burton is a national calamity, because it is a sad reflection upon American institutions and free government, and it will long remain as a blight upon the lofty position occupied by our highest dignitaries. But we feel a personal sympathy for the man and for any man who might have attained a distinction so much to be desired, and it is a pity that greatness should be thus dethroned. But living under a free and powerful government where, under the constitution, all men are admitted to equal privileges and are to be tried by a common law, how would this whole matter be viewed, had the unfortunate Senator been other than white man? What would be the comments of the press and the sentiment of the ruling powers had this victim to mercenary gain been an Afro-American? Instead of a feeling of quiet sympathy there would be denunciation and abuse. Again the entire race would be assailed as being unnt for official trust and undeserving a place of honor among the people. Suffering the severest excoriations and hounded from pillow to post, one may still wonder why this mad assault upon a poor and defenseless people, while white and black alike are guilty of the same sin. A drunken white man kills his wife and forces his little children out into the cold rain to suffer and die, and while in a delirium this Kentucky farmer sets his house on fire and perishes in the dames. Even in this instance had this been a black man, the brand of wretch and brute would have been the chosen epethets applied to degrade and render worthless and brutal a people struggling in common for better life. We offer these citations not in any feeling of pleasure or resentment but as an illustration of the foul-handed injustice and wrong that is every day being practiced to destroy and undervalue one people in the attempt to magnify the virtues and excellence of the other. HOW ADAMS BECAME PRESIDENT Editor Clifford Tells It Interestingly as Well as Truthfully-Fortune Resigns. We helped to elect Mr. Fortune as president of the Afro-American council and regret his resignation. He is a brainy man. deeply interested in the rights of the race, and could have helped the cause on, and should have held the position given him, although the council has not done one thing of noble worthiness from its birth to this day. The money paid into its treasury has been too freely spent by officers galloping over the country on cipher business. The idea of charging a person $5 to join and then $5 every year to remain a member. It was akin to robbery. As to Mr. Fortune resigning from the National Negro Press Association, there was no need for it, from the fact there is none. Nearly six years ago, when there had been no Press meeting for two years, and no one belonging to it was there except Cyrus Field Adams and myself, and Mr. John E. Bruce, an Ex., we feigned an organization which has been a sham ever since. After the council had adjourned, we called C. F. Adams and Mr. Bruce into a room, and we nominated Mr. Adams, president, and voted for him; then he nominated us for secretary, and voted for us; then we nominated John E. Bruce treasurer, and Mr. Bruce fell off the chair in laughter. We then adjourned, and the said Mr. Adams has ever since held that empty honor, because there has never been a real gathering since then. All Mr. Adams has done, was to follow up the council and have side issue meetings.—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press. WAR MAY LAST 22 YEARS. English Expert Compares Japan with Great Britain at Beginning of Nineteenth Century. Miller Maguire, the well-known British expert, lectured before the Royal United Service institution of London the other day on the subject, "The New Pacific from a Strategic Point of View." The lecturer demonstrated the universal desire in the past and at the present day to obtain a footing on the Pacific. He described the advance of Russia, the United States and Great Britain, saying: "The United States' capture of the Philippines has created a new Pacific. The United States has a vast reservoir of mechanical and labor power. It knows the potentialities of the Chinese and intends to control them." Referring to the present situation in the far east, he said at the beginning of the twentieth century Great Britain and Japan bore the same relation to eastern Asia as Great Britain bore to French power at the beginning of the nineteenth. He ventured to say that the Japanese might repeat in regard to the Korean peninsula what Great Britain did in regard to the Iberian. He saw no reason why the Russo-Japanese war should not last for 22 years, as did Great Britain's peninsular war. Reformers Open New Hall. On last week Thursday the Reformers held the formal opening of their new hall in the rear of No. 305 Cedar avenue. It was a big day for the order. Dinner and supper were served at 8 p. m. The vast assembly was called to order by Toastmaster P. A. Williams, W. M., of Bishop Paine fountain, No. 2511. The hall was packed and the program was very interesting. Mrs. Grace Brown sang a beautiful selection and was enclosed. Then came the speech making. Miss Maud Reed, J. C. Burton, Rev. B. K. Smith, all of Oberlin, made excellent addresses, and were followed by the chief, Rev. W. L. Anderson, of Cincinnati. The crowning event of the evening, however, was the public installation of 70 officers. This was a sight rarely seen. Chief Anderson visited Lorain on Friday, Oberlin on Monday, and wound up his trip with a union meeting of local fountains on Tuesday evening. This was the climax. Look out for the U. O. of T. R. Warren Coleman Dead. Concord, N. C.—Warren C. Coleman, who was one of the most remarkable men of the race, started life in poverty but became, through his own exertions, one of the wealthiest Afro-Americans. He was once a student at Howard University, Washington, D. C., sustaining himself. Later he established himself in business and purchased real estate. At the time of his death he was said to be the owner of 100 houses, none of which were encumbered. Mr. Coleman started the first cotton factory in this country, owned and operated by our people. He built a beautiful brick church in Concord, and presented it to the congregation, and was one of the chief promoters of the Colored State Industrial fair, held, annually at Raleigh for the past 25 years.

Five Injured, Two of Whom Will Die -The Battleship Was Engaged in Target Practice Off Pensacola, Fla. Pensacola, Fla., April 14.—By the explosion of 2,000 pounds of powder in the after 12-inch turret and the handling room of the battleship Missouri, Capt. William S. Cowles commanding, 29 men were instantly killed and five injured, of whom two will die. The Missouri was on the target range with the Texas and Brooklyn at practice about noon yesterday when a charge of powder in the 12-inch left hand gun ignited from gases, exploded and, dropping below, ignited four charges of powder in the handling room and all exploded. Only one man of the entire turret and handling crew survives. But for the prompt work of Capt. Cowles in flooding the handling room and magazine with water, one of the magazines would have exploded and the ship would have been destroyed. Capt. Cowles, completely overcome by the disaster, referred all newspaper men to Lieut. Hammer, the ordnance officer. The latter gave out a statement of the explosion and its probable cause. According to him about noon after the first pointer of the after 12-inch piece had fired his string and the second pointer had fired the third shot of his string, the charge ignited. The fourth shot was being loaded and from all indications the first half of the charge had been rammed home and the second section was being rammed home, when gases from the shot previously fired or portions of the cloth cover ignited the powder. No loud report was made, but flames were seen to leap from every portion of the turret. A few seconds later another explosion, somewhat more fierce, occurred. This was in the handling room below, where 1,600 pounds of powder, or four charges ready to be hoisted above, had ignited. Fire quarters were sounded and every man of the ship responded and the magazine and handling rooms were flooded with water. In less than five seconds after the first explosion, two streams of water were being played in the rooms and when volunteers were called for every man of the ship responded, eager to go into the turrets and rescue the erew. Capt. Cowles gave his commands and but for his presence of mind and that of the officers of the ship, the Missouri would have gone down. The second explosion occurred near one of the magazines and so hot was the fire that the brass work of the magazines was melted. Smoke and the fumes of the burned powder made it almost impossible to enter either the turret or handling room, but officers and men with handkerchiefs over their faces made efforts to rescue the men inside. Leading the rescuing party was Capt. Cowles. The officers endeavored to keep him from going below, as men fell unconscious as they entered and had to be pulled out by their comrades, but unheeding their advice the commanding officer rushed below, followed by Lieut. Hammer, the ordnance officer, and Lieut. Cleland Davis. Capt. Cowles caught up a dying blue jacket in his arms and staggered to the deck with him. The blue jacket with two others from the handling room had crawled partly from their place of duty when they had been overcome. Before the fumes of the burning powder had left the turret, officers and men were lifting out the dying and dead men. Three minutes after the explosion all were on deck and the surgeons from the Missouri, Texas and Brooklyn were attending to those not dead. Lieut. Davidson, the officer in charge of the turret, evidently had given some command to the men, as he was on top of the heap of men. The dead officers are: Lieut. W. C. Davidson, in charge of the 12-inch turret. Midshipman W. T. Neumann. Lieut. J. P. V. Gridley. Lieut. Thomas Ward. jr. DEMOCRATS FEASTED. Party Leaders Observed the Anniversaries of different African Bishops sary of Thomas Jefferson's Birth. Chicago, April 14.—Ways and means to bring success to the democratic party in the presidential campaign this fall were discussed by prominent democrats, representing every part of the country, who attended the Iroquois club banquet at the Auditorium last night in celebration of Jefferson's birthday. Tariff reform, antagonism to trusts, independence for the Philippines and rigid economy in public expenditures were some of the suggestions offered by the speakers to bring about this result. A feature of the banquet was a letter from ex-President Cleveland, who had been invited to attend, but was unable to be present. In his letter Mr. Cleveland advised all democrats to make a close study of Jefferson's career and "patriotically seek the welfare of our country through the ascendancy of safe and sane democracy." A Terrine Rush for Jobs. New York, April 14—So great was the crowd of applicants for positions in a new department store on Sixth avenue yesterday that it became necessary to call out the police reserves to maintain order. It was estimated that anywhere from 4,000 to 8,000 persons were in waiting at 8 o'clock, the hour named in advertisements for receiving the applications. The Sixth avenue block extending from Thirteenth to Fourteenth street, and for several hundred feet east was literally jammed with men, women, boys and girls clamoring for a chance to get in the building. First Trip Through the Subway. New York, April 14.—The first trip through the new subway in a regulation motor car with passengers, was made yesterday afternoon from One Hundred and Thirty-fifth street to a point down town. August Belmont and John B. McDonald, with about 20 other persons, all of whom have been directly interested in the building of the subway, were in the car and various points along the route were inspected. Motive power for the train was supplied by one of the old "L" locomotives, which had been remodelled. World's Fair Excursions via Pennsylvania Lines.

It was thorough- ly enjoyed. ‘The concert for the benefit of the - Old Folks’ Home given av St. Johns church on Wednesday evening, was not nearly as well attended as it ought to have been.

Aljutant General Critch- field, it is said, is looxing into the affairs of the Battalion. If he digs deep enough and goes back far enough, there will certainly be “lots doin.” Mr. James Lynch’s mother died last week Thursday at her son's resi- dence, corner Central avenue and Lin- den street, and was buried from the residence Saturday, Rev. R. L. Dick- erson officiating; Undertaker Rogers in charge. A daughter also survives her.

Rey. E. S. Doan, the rector, presided and introduced the speaker.

Next meeting, April 27. Miss Ida A. Gibbs, daughter of Hon. Mifflin W. Gibbs, of Little Rock, Ark. former consul to Madagascar, and Mr. William Henry Hunt, the pres- ent consul there, and Mr. Gibbs’ former secretary, were married April 12.

Wilson, who was cited into eourt by Judge Dissette last week and given the alternative of paying his divorced wife $5 alimony by Saturday night or going to jail, was in court Monday, with $3. “All I could get together. judge,” he said. “But I think I can have the rest, to- gether with the amount due this week, by Saturday night, if you'll give me the time.” Judge Dissette allowed the request. An incipient fight was all that marred the pleasantness of the char- ity ball. It is said that Daniel Young and Leroy Crawford became involved in a personal dispute which ended in the former's “batting” the latter in the mouth. This was but a logical se- quence of permitting certain persons a part in the management of public benefits. As indicated in our last issue more care should be exercised in the future, along this line. Mrs. Annie Irving Douglass, for- merly of this city, a resident of Cum- berland, Md., died on the 6th, leav- ing a child only eight months of age. A husband, three sisters, a brother and father, all residents of this city éxcept one sister, who is a resident of Arkansas, where she taught school until her marriage and at times thereafter, survive her. They, too, have the sympathy of the com; munity. Miss Lottie Irving was with her at the time of her death. Mr, John Corom, of Eddy road, died Sunday at 4 a. m., and was buried from the family residence on Wed- nesday, Rev. Charles Bunday officiat- ing. Interment in Woodland ceme- tery. The deceased left a wife, daughter, two brothers and the same number of sisters to mourn his de- mise. His son died several years ago. Mr. Corom had resided here many years, was generally known and high- ly respected. His family and rela- tives have the sympathy of the com- munity. Four little Afro-Americans with eyes a-shine and teeth as white as snow, peered over the rail in juven- ile court at Judge Callahan last week Friday morning. They were all be- tween § and 10 years old and live on Scovill avenue. ‘Their names were Charles, Orville, Fritz and Russell. It was alleged they “helped themselves to candy and two watches, two silver spoons, two brooches, two rings.and a couple of chains, besides taking a missionary box containing 75 cents in a candy store. Most of the stuff was returned. Judge Callahan gave the boys a lecture. Wm. Hill, Pullman porter, sued Bu- chanan & Stevens in Justice Ginley's court, for the loss of a $63 overcont, made of black beaver and lined with satin, He said it disappeared from the checkroom while he was attend- ing a ball at Woodliff hall on March 16. The defendants offered to arbi- trate the claim so the parties appear- ed Monday with a tailor from the Hollenden, The tailor was to fix the market value of the overcoat, and said $35. Hill, horrified, rushed out of the court room. He came back an hour or so later with another tailor. This tailor said such a coat was worth at least $65. But while Hill was absent Squire Ginley decided $30 was a fair valuation for the black beaver overcoat, and gave judgment for that amount. Hill conducted his own case. Eugene Manns, of No. 29 Laurel street, was recently arrested on a warrant sworn out by the city health department, charging him with work- ing without a plumber's license. One of the requirements for a license is that the applicant shall have the names of two master plumbers on his application card for the examina- tion, Manns said tuat there is not one Afro-American master plumber in the city, and that other master plumbers refuse to sign his applica- tion card. Strange to say this “went” with Judge Whelan, who gave Manns a suspended sentence on the promise that he would not violate any more city ordinances. Of course Manns’ part of the story has absolutely no, foundation in fact--as far as the col- or line’s being drawn in the way, he said, by all local master plumbers. Bert Jackson, assistant fireman at the Hollenden hotel, was sealded while he was in one of the big boil- jers in the basement of the hotel Tuesday morning. He was taken to Huron street: hospital, where it is said his chances of life and death are about equally divided. Jackson had crawled through the manhole into the boiler, over the flues, to clean it out. The head fireman, Luke Gray, helped him run a hose into the boiler. A few minutes later Bay heard the whistle, which is a warning that the boiler is getting too full of water. He “blew down,” and a stream of scalding steam struck Jackson. If it had struck him in the face it would provably have killed him outright. He was scalded all over his body. Gay heard his screams and turned off the steam. Jackson crawled through the manhole and fell to the floor. The house physician was eall- ed, and iater an ambulance, Jackson ‘is 25 years old and has « wife. He | has been an employe of the hotel 15 lvears, He will recover. FINANCIAL REPORT OF CHARITY BALL. RECEIPTS.

The young girl rushed to a mirror and saw with horror-stricken glance that the left side of her face was streaked and stained with ink. “Heaven and earth!” she screamed; “his fountain pen must have leaked int his waistcoat pocket!” and with a shriel of horror the beautiful girl fell, fainting to the door, ee The Doctors Failed. Kilgore, O., April 11.—A_ rather re- markable case has just come to light in this place. Mr. John T. Riegle had been suffering for some time with an eagrs, vated form of Kidney disease which caused him a great deal of discomfort. He tried the treatment of several doc- tors, but did not get any better. At last he chanced to read an advertisement. of Dodd’s Kidney Pills, a — which has been making many wonderful cures, and he bought some at. once and began to use them. He says of the result: “Dodd's ‘Kidney Pills do just what they are advertised to do. I can praise them for the good they have done for ame. They cured me conpleraly after the doc- tors had failed, and I wish that every Poor sufferer, could hear of them. for 1 ow they will cure Kidney trouble.” There seems to be no case of Kidney Trouble, Rheumatism or Backache that Dodd’s Kidney Pills will not cure per- fectly and permanently.

DANS STRUGGLE WITH SdoorveseeG0CC0000C0 | London, April 11.—No confirmation has reached London of the various /rumors, most of which eame by way of Paris, of land fighting and ‘and- ‘Ings by Japanese on the Liao-Tung ‘peninsula, the capture of Japanese ‘transports by Russians, ete. Dispatches from various points ee that the Russians have com- pletely evacuated Korea, but beyond this there is little reliable news. A correspondent of the Times at Che-Foo says that 2,000 Russian ar- tillerymen ‘with 60 guns arrived at New Chwang on Thursday last. St. Petersburg, April 11,—The an- ticipated attack on Port Arthur did not oceur Saturday night, although a telegram received from Grand Duke Cyril reports that the enemy's ships were sighted on the horizon. INCREASE RUSSIA’S FORCES St. Petersburg, April 12.—Excep- tionally reliable information regard- ing the Russian military plans con- firm the repeated announcements ‘that these plans will not mature un- ‘til late in the summer, They are of ‘far greater magnitude than is gener- ally believed abroad and take into ac- count all possible contingencies. Gen. Kuropatkin has insisted that the men and guns to be placed at his disposal shall cover the extreme limit required to settle the fate of the campaign. | The Russian plana are predicated upon Napoleon's dictum that “God fights on the side of the heaviest bat- talions” and they are being worked out and timed so as to apply to a superiority of numbers on land and sea simultaneously. The army is designed to attain the enormous total of half a million men at the time scheduled for the reinforcement of Vice Admiral Makaroff’s fleet with the Baltie squadron. | Rear Admiral Rojestrensky will hoist his flag as commander of the formidable Baltic squadron early in July and will sail immediately for Port Arthur with six battleships, six cruisers and two transports each zarrying 10,000 tons of coal. | Paris, April 12.—Official advices re- ‘ceived by the French government confirm the press dispatches an- ‘nouncing that Japan’s first army, | consisting of four army corps, is now ‘completely landed in Korea and that the second army, consisting of a sim- lar number of corps, is about to ade: RUSSIAN VICTORY | Che Foo, April 13.—A_ correspon- dent of the Associated Press at Teng Chow, 40 miles northwest of here, telegraphs as follows: “Sounds of very heavy firing were heard at 6:30 o'clock this (Wednes- day) morning. The firing evidently was being done between here and Port Arthur. | “The Japanese battleship Asahi, fly- Ing an admiral’s flag, was seen off Che Foo yesterday, going to the west, and there is no doubt that the re- mainder of the Japanese fleet was in the vicinity of Port Arthur. The Russian fleet also was seen outside Port Arthur yesterday.” St. Petersburg, April 13—Gen. Kuro- patkin, in a dispatch to the emperor bearing yesterday’s date, says that Gen. Krasnalinski, on the night of April 8, ordered a detachment of sharpshooters to cross to the left bank of the Yalu opposite Wiju. The sharpshooters landed on the island of Samalind and surprised a patrol of 50 Japanese scouts just as the lat- ter were approaching the east side of the island in three boats. | ‘The Russians allowed the Japanese to land and then fired on them, Nearly all the Japanese were shot. bayoneted or drowned and their boats sunk. The Russians sustained no losses, On the following day the Japanese lowered their flag at Wiju and their outposts fell back. =: A State Primary Election. Birmingham, , Ala. April 12—The first general primary election ever held in Alabama brought out the largest democratic vote ever polled in the state, As every candidate for every office in the state had to be voted for individually, it probably will be 24 hours before the vote can be counted.

Nevada, Mo., April 12.—Edwin Griffith, son of the postmaster at Great Bend, Kan., has been arrested for stealing a registered package of $5,000 which was sent by the Traders bank at Kansas City to a bank at Great Bend on February 9. Griffith has confessed. Griffith was an em- ploye of the Great Bend postoffice and had aovess to registered pack. ages. After taking the $5,000 he fied to El Paso, Texas. He came to Nevada to give part of the money te @ woman. The woman turned the gmoney ever to the inspector. S608C60' LE WITH | On the night of April 9 four Rus- | sians crossed the Yalu to Yenampo |(Yongampho?) and made towards a | Russian village where they found a [squadron of Japanese cavalry. They |remained there 12 hours, when they lwere betrayed by Koreans and found [themselves obliged to swim the river, their boat having struck on a Nena bank. One soldier lost his life. [ate Japanese pursued the Russians in a boat, but were in turn attacked | by @ Russian boat which had come to the reseue of the swimmers. The Japanese were all killed and their boat sunk. | RUSSIAN BATTLESHIP SUNK St. Petersburg, April 14.--While go- ing out to meet the Japanese fleet © Port Arthur the battleship Petropay- lovsk struck a mine in the outer road- stead, heeled over, turned turtle and sandk. Practically the whole of her crew were lost. Only four officers were saved, among them being the Grand. Duke Cyril, the ezar’s cousin. The Petropavlosk was flying the flag of Vice Admiral Makaroff, who was drowned. According to later reports, Grand Duke Cyril was more seriously _in- jured than at first believed. He has been rémoved to a hospital at Port Arthur for treatment. A dispatch from Viceroy Alexieff to the czar says: “According to reports from the commandant of Port Ar- thur the battleships and cruisers went to meet the enemy, but in con- Isequence of the enemy receiving re- |inforcements, making his total strength 30 vessels, our squadron re- turned to the roadstead, whereupon the Petropavlovsk touched a mine, re- sulting in her destruction, Grand Duke Cyril, who was on board, was saved. ‘The whole squadron then re- entered port, ‘The Japanese are now off Cape Liao-Shan.” The latest estimate of the number of men who lost their lives is S00. The awful disaster to the battle- ship Petropavlovsk with the loss of almost her entire crew and the death of Vice Admiral Makaroff has been a terrible blow. It would have fallen less heavily if the ship and the com- mander-in-chief of the fleet had been lost in battle, but to be the result of another accident following upon the heels of a succession of tragedies of which the Port Arthur fleet has been the victim has created something like consternation. It hax just become known that the battleship Poltava several weeks ago had a hole rammed in her by the bat- tleship Sevastopol while the latter was maneuvering in the harbor of Port Arthur, Vice Admiral Makaroff's death is really a greater loss than would be that of several battleships. He was the pride of the navy and enjoyed the implicit confidence of his sov- creign as well as of the officers and men of the service. Speaking of his death officers here all remarked upon the strange fatality that he should lose his life on: a heavily armored battleship, to which he had a partieu- lar aversion. London, April 14.—The Daily Tele- graph's correspondent at Wei-Hai- j Wei, telegraphing under date of April 13, says: “The British cruiser Espiegle re- ports that at 5:45 o'clock this morn- ing she sighted five Japanese —war- ships engaging the Russian cruiser | Bayan, making for Port Arthur from | the direction of the Yalu. The Rns- jsian cruiser Askold | and another cruiser issued from Port Arthur to assist the Bayan. At 6:45 o'clock the Russians got under the shelter of the forts, but the Bayan was evident: ly daniaged, as quantities of steam Were geen escaping. “At 8 o'clock the Japanese ships opened a heavy gun fire on the forts, which did not reply, and after 15 minutes bombardment the Japanese retired to the eastward.” Claims the Judge Is an Usurper. Jefferson City, Mo., April 13.—At- torney General Crow yesterday be- gan action in the supreme court to oust from office Judge Hugh Dabbs, of the judicial circuit of Jasper coun- ty, charging that Judge Dabbs is an usurper. Judge Dabbs was appointed by Gov. Dockery in 1903 to fill a va- caney caused by the death of Dabbs' successful opponent for the office be- fore he could be qualified. Attorney General Crow contends that _ there was no vacancy and that an election should have been held for a succes- sor, instead of an appointment. hav- ing been made by the governor. ‘a Shhawt Ehend Serticn. Chicago, April 13.—A strike of ten minutes’ duration occurred at the plant of Swift & Co. here yesterday Five hundred cattle butchers walked out. Almost at the moment, how. ever, word came from a_ meeting then in session between the union officials and the employers that 2 settlement had been reached and the men returned to work. One hundred employes who had been laid off and whom, the union charged, had been picked with reference to their mem: bership in the Butchers’ union, were reinstated by the company. SKILLED ORGANIST AT SIX. An English Child Causes Astonish- ment by Wonderful Musical Ability —She Has a Good Memory. Another musical prodigy has been discovered in London, This time it is Miss Mary Ellen Skinner, a maiden who has reached the mature age of six and who is a remarkable perform- er on the organ. ‘The child's gift for music has long been manifest in her home, but it was only recently that she played several organ pieces ata concert in connection with the Ben- tham Street Primitive | Methodist church, and so took her first step toward that fame which may one day be hers, She is a pretty little blue- eyed maiden, who, though she is known to be six, looks not more than four. Her shyness disappeared directly it was suggested that she should “play something,” and yet there was none of the pert “showing off” that sometimes spoils accomplished ebil- dren, “Lt's rather hard work pedaling,” she exclaimed, apologetically, but she rejected all offers of assistance, pre- ferring, as she said, to “blow her- self.” The instrument was one of the American type, and before mounting the organ stool the child's head was little more than level with the key- board. She played first a well-known hymn tune, and then another, more difficult, Her baby hands are scarce- ly big enough to stretch an octave, but her touch is remarkable in its delicacy, and though she occasionally struck a wrong note, she detected and corrected it immediately, with a little laugh and the remark, “No, that’s wrong.” Unlike most prodigies, who have studied or been drilled in the techni- calities of the art, little Miss Skinner does not know a note of music. She has, however, a remarkable faculty for remembering a melody she has once heard, After returning from chureh or concert she ean play the hymn tunes or the airs of the songs with surprising accuracy. | Murder Record of South Carolina. | According to the report of the at- | torney general of South Carolina to the general assembly of that state, the circuit solicitors have tried since 1888 2,781 cases for murder, During | the last five years 938 murder trials have been held and in 492 of these the verdict was “not guilty.” The murder record for the state last year was 222, or nearly five a week.
