TRADE 1000 COUNCIL CLEVELAND, SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 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. The Gazette is indebted to the Cleveland Daily Leader for the excellent portrait of Mr. George Vosburgh, which appeared in our last issue. ANOTHER RIOT "ECHO." The grand jury investigation farce into the Springfield lynching and riot has hardly closed, and a previous military inquiry into the conduct of some of the officers of the Springfield companies (white) of the Ohio National Guard, had hardly been forgotten before Gov. Herrick convenes a court martial to try the major and two captains of those companies, for misconduct and neglect of duty in connection with the "shame of Ohio." This we presume is to be a third dose of whitewash. The people of this state are not only heartily tired of this sort of thing, but are thoroughly disgusted. Gov. Herrick and his attorney general made more noise than a battery of artillery soon after the lynching, telling the people through the daily newspapers what they were going to do with their "sleuths" and special deputy attorneys general, and the evidence—they were sent to Springfield to secure. And, by the way, that is about all-telling what they were going to do—that has been done if the two white-wash experiences referred to above are excepted. Now comes this court martial, in the specifications of which we have been unable to find what ought to be the main cause of convening such a court. If the Springfield companies, (white) did not assemble in time or were late in assembling, why wasn't that colored company used? It did assemble in time only to be cooped up in its armory and kept there. Why was not this company used promptly before the assembling of the white companies or afterward? It alone could and would have been glad to head off that mob and prevented the disgraceful lynching and riot. Major Kirkpatrick ought to be made to answer this question satisfactorily or be punished as is required by the articles of war. The major and the two captains of the white companies ought also to be punished for a palpable failure to assemble their commands in time. If the Springfield Afro-American company could gather sufficiently promptly, there is no reason in the world why Captains Bradbury's and Beli's companies should not have done likewise. AGAINST BISHOP TURNER AND THE RACE. The Memphis (Tenn.) Commercial Appeal makes strong claims to fair play and right dealing. Able and exceptionally conciliatory at times in regard to those questions which concern Afro-Americans, yet it ignores many things which are justly accredited to him. The Appeal is either uninformed or it grudgingly withholds what it knows to be the property of the "colorad" man. Again and again through a decade of years it has stubbornly denied that the Negro has ever invented or done anything creditable to himself or the nation. With the same old "Rip Van Winkle" rehash it saunters forth to make battle against the Negro in utter disregard for the merest claims of justice or of personal worth in merit or achievement. It repudiates the ordained rights conferred by Jehovah and brands him as the inferior of all races without title to his birthright, freedom. It apurms the idea of the equality of rights among men and impeaches the Almighty that such a decree of rights was ever given. Bishop Henry M. Turner in an address before the recent A. M. E. general conference recently said that the United States supreme court is against us. The Appeal in reply to Bishop Turner promptly takes the same old position that the supreme court is against no person, no society, no institution, or race in this country. It denies that the supreme court has done anything to impair the rights of the Negro in America. It denies the possibility of the supreme court to encroach upon the political privileges of any citizen under the government, and if it has, the fault remains with the constitution and the laws and not with the court. Then at once it enters into an idle argument to show that the court is well justified in its encroachment upon the liberty of the Afro-American. Boldly and defiantly it wages the fight that the Negro is unworthy the rights of an American citizen, that he is living in a state to-day far worse than that from which he was released when held as a slave, that he has no alphabet, no laws, no constitution, no code of morals, no art, no science, no history, and everything he has ever accomplished has been in imitation of what the white man has done in every sphere of life's activities. We would remind the Commercial Appeal writer that he has either forgotten the facts or he has never known that the history of the black man existed anterior to that of the whites. Civilization began in Ethiopia. The Ethiopian rocked the cradle of civilization. Out of Ethiopia into Egypt, out of Egypt into Greece, out of Greece into Rome and throughout all Europe, was carried the torch of literature and learning which lighted up a benighted world. Art, science, invention and history were all known prior to the emancipation of the white man in Europe; for when Julius Caesar led his conquering army into old England, he found the Normans feeding on nuts and grass. They were in the condition of canables, ignorant and degraded, and were too indolent to cover their own nakedness. The great Roman Emperor made them his captives and, as a means to ameliorate a condition so hapless, he lashed and forced them to work. To the mighty Caesar, the white man owes the most that he enjoys today. From ignorance, degradation and cruel barbarism, he has been rescued and given the high position he holds in the world's civilization. Must he now forget the route whence he has come and shall be in haughty disdain despise the same path being traveled by those who once stood as the noblest and the most advanced of all the people of earth? We cannot distort the truth of history, and wilful ignorance on the part of the prejudiced, whether in the southland on elsewhere, admits of no apology. If the Commercial Appeal has read Herodetus, and we doubt it, or if the editor has informed himself from biblical history, he might have written with more care. But where ignorance is a bliss 'tis folly to be wise. No man is so blind as he who will not see. The Appeal is joined to its idols, and standing as the avowed enemy of our people of this country, an enemy on account of prejudice to race, an enemy en account of their progressive march to better conditions, and an enemy to the cause of truth and righteousness, we need not wonder that it takes this selfish and unfriendly attitude against the poor and suffering black people of the country. TO CHURCH MEMBERS. The Rector of St. Andrew's Mission Talks Plainly—A Timely Sermon. The following is a portion of a sermon preached by Rev. Edwin S. Doan at St. Andrew's Episcopal church on a recent Sunday: "Upon our earnest faith and steady purpose to live an upright and moral life in the church of God, depends our eternal life. We cannot deceive God in our shallow ambitions to become popular at the sacrifice of honor and principle. Nor does the church intend to permit us to do so. She is commissioned not only to preach the gospel and administer sacraments, but she also is empowered to enforce discipline upon her members who do wrong, and live lives of shame and wickedness and refuse or neglect to repent and make amendment for their misdoings. This she does, not only to rescue, if possible, the souls of those persons who are in danger of losing their eternal heritage, but also to warn others of the danger, and so keep the communion of the church as clean and reverent as possible. The church is the body of Christ and we as members are under solemn and eternal obligations to keep our life in harmony with His life as far as the church teaches us and restrains us. How can we be true men and true women, approved of God in our efforts, if while we be partakers of the Lord's table we be also partakers of the table of devils? Can morality and immorality occupy our life at one and the same time? Can we go on and commit sin day by day and believe that our sins are forgiven? Can we profess to be Christians and not practice the principles and restraints of Christian morality? The church does not teach us so. When her members become such reprobates and pagans as to persist in holding the faith in such thin shells of mockery and deceit, their attitude is one of ignorance of eternal truth and their sin must be reproved. The church, therefore, permits her priests to repel all such until they come to a better state of mind and repent of their evil deeds and steadfastly purpose to live a better life. "It is just such a stand which I am now going to take here in my, work at St. Andrew's. We are being disgraced and talked against on account of the too many shortcomings and open notorious evil doings of some of our members. Already I have a list made out of those who will soon be repelled according to the law of the church for their evil living. In these matters I shall be no respecter of persons. Notice will be sent to such members who are repelled and also to the bishop of the diocese, just as the Prayer Book states. And such members will not be reinstated until they have come to me and shown to my satisfaction that they are sorry for their sin and intend to be truer to God, their Christ, and His holy church. We must look upon our religion as a very real and vital thing and not trifle with it, as the manner of some is. In repelling any person from the holy communion my only purpose will be that which the church herself holds, namely, to bring around the repentance and amendment of life of the guilty offender. To be repelled will mean to call your attention to the very great spiritual danger you are in, otherwise you might continue in your indifference and sin and lose your soul. I shall always be ready from this day forward to investigate all reported and generally talked about cases. If repentance and an earnest desire to forsake the old sin and evil ways are shown and really expressed on such occasions, I shall desist from repelling such a member, otherwise the discipline of the church will be rigidly enforced." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1904. ON SACRED GROUND ON SACRED GROUND President Roosevelt Speaks on Historic Cemetery Hill, Gettysburg. Lessons of the Strife Between the North and South Should be Remembered—Men Should Learn How to Live Usefully. Gettysburg, Pa., May 31.—On historic Cemetery Hill, overlooking ground hallowed by the blood of half a hundred thousand brave men and in the presence of a concourse of thousands who had assembled to pay tribute to the memory of the nation's dead, President Roosevelt yesterday delivered a notable address. On nearly the same spot, on November 19, 1863, President Lincoln delivered the immortal address enunciating principles which have rung around the world for more than a third of a century. President Roosevelt was escorted to the cemetery on the battlefield by several hundred veterans of the civil war. The president and his escort were preceded by several organizations, including a squadron of United States cavalry, the Third United States artillery and the Marine band, of Washington. Gov. Pennypacker presided at the ceremonies in the cemetery. After the Memorial Day services of the G. A. R. had been concluded, and the pupils of the public schools had strewn flowers over the graves of the thousands of dead, during which ceremony the Marine band played a solemn dirge, Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, chaplain of the United States senate, pronounced the invocation. The president's address follows: The president's address follows: "The place where we now are has won a double distinction. Here was fought one of the great battles of all time, and here was spoken one of the few speeches which shall last through the ages. As long as this republic endures or its history is known, so long shall the memory of the battle of Gettysburg endure and be known; and as long as the English tongue is understood, so long shall Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg speech thrill the hearts of mankind. "The civil war was a great war for righteousness; a war waged for the noblest ideals, but waged also in thoroughgoing, practical fashion. It was one of the few wars which mean, in their successful outcome, a lift toward better things for the nations of mankind. Some wars have meant the triumph of order over anarchy and licentiousness masquerading as liberty; some wars have meant the triumph of liberty over tyranny masquerading as order; but this victorious war of ours meant the triumph of both liberty and order, the triumph of orderly liberty, the bestowal of civil rights upon the freed slaves, and at the same time the stern insistence on the supremacy of the national law throughout the length and breadth of the land. Moreover, this was one of those rare contests in which it was to the immeasurable interest of the vanquished that they should lose, while at the same time the victors acquired the precious privilege of transmitting to those who came after them, as a heritage of honor forever, not only the memory of their own valiant deeds, but the memory of the deeds of those who, no less valiantly and with equal sincerity of purpose, fought against the stars in their courses. "He is but a poor American who, looking at this field, does not feel within himself a deeper reverence for the nation's past and a higher purpose to make the nation's future rise level to her past. Here fought the chosen sons of the north and the south, the east and the west. The armies which on this field contended for the mastery were veteran armies, hardened by long campaigning and desperate fighting into such instruments of war as no other nation then possessed. The severity of the fighting is attested by the proportionate loss—a loss unrivaled in any battle of similar size since the close of the Napoleonic struggles; a loss which in certain regiments was from three-fourths to four-fifths of the men engaged. "Every spot on this field has its own associations of soldierly duty nobly done, of supreme self-sacrifice freely rendered. The names of the chiefs who served in the two armies form a long honor roll; and the enlisted men were worthy, and even more than worthy, of those who led them. "To-day, all over this land our people meet to pay reverent homage to the dead who died that the nation might live; and we pay homage also to their comrades who are still with us. "All are at one now, the sons of those who wore the blue and the sons of those who wore the gray, and all can unite in paying respect to the memory of those who fell, each of them giving his life for his duty as he saw it; and all should be at one in learning from the deaths of these men how to live usefully while the times call for the performance of the countless necessary duties of everyday life, and how to hold ourselves ready to die nobly should the nation ever again demand of her sons the ultimate proof of loyalty." Military Week at the Fair. St. Louis, May 31.—The first day of military week at the world's fair was rendered disagreeable by a torrential rain that fell during the afternoon. Soldiers and cadets marched in the pouring rain and the plaza of St. Louis was thronged by thousands who cheered and waved umbrellas, apparently unmindful of the downpour. More than 5,000 military and quasi military men passed in review before Maj. Gen. John C. Bates and President D. R. Francis. After the parade, Decoration day exercises were held in Festival hall. Was Murdered While Plowing. Muskogee, O. T., May 31.—Four white men are in the federal jail charged with the murder of Robert Suddoth, a negro, near Broken Arrow, by the use of an infernal machine. Suddoth was disliked because he owned a farm in the center of a white settlement. He was blown to pieces while plowing in a field. A Very Fatal Explosion. Knoxville, Tenn., May 31.—Four workmen were killed and two fatally injured yesterday in a dynamite explosion near Warwick, on a branch of the Louisville & Nashville railroad. TO TRY THE GUARDSMEN. Court Martial Convened to Investigate Acts of Springfield Officers During Lynching and Rioting. Columbus, O.-The Ohio national guard courtmartial recently appointed by Adjt. Gen. Critchfield, by direction of Gov. Herrick, convened in the senate chamber Wednesday morning to try Major Thos. J. Kirkpatrick, Capt. H. Bradbury and Capt. Rodney W. Bell, of the Third regiment, stationed at Springfield. They are accused of misconduct and neglect of duty in connection with the lynching of Richard Dickerson, the slayer of Patrolman Collins, and the rioting and the burning of the levee district that followed the lynching in Springfield in March. Gen. J. Warren Keifer, of Springfield, appeared as attorney for the accused. The following witnesses from Springfield responded to summons: Mayor Chas. J. Bowlus, Sheriff L. Floyd Routzahn, City Solicitor Stewart L. Tatum, Police Surgeon Boswell, County Prosecutor John M. McGrew and President Hecker, of Wittenberg college. The specifications are under sections 21 and 62 of the articles of war and charge obedience of orders in that the accused failed to promptly respond when ordered on duty. Under these articles of war the death penalty is provided for obedience of orders, but dismissal from the service is the severe penalty thought of in such as the present case, in the event of conviction. The defense of the officers will be that the orders signed by Adjt. Gen Critchfield were not issued formally directly and lawfully by the governor as commander-in-chief. Olean, N. Y., Items.

Alleged Blood Money. New York City.—Mrs. Hannah Elias, the beautiful Afro-American, for love of whom Cornelius Williams, an insane Afro-American, murdered Andrew H. Green, (white) father of Greater New York, has been sued in a sensational case filed here. The plaintiff is John R. Platt, (white), a retired millionaire glass manufacturer. He sues to recover $685,385, which, he alleges, Mrs. Elias secured from him by blackmail. She could not be seen at her handsome home Wednesday. It is fitted up in oriental splendor and a Japanese butler answered the ring at the door bell. He would only say that Mrs. Elias was away. The story of her rise from poverty to affluence, the murder of Andrew H. Green by the jealous Afro-American and the latter's commitment to an asylum for the insane for life, are well known. Platt in his suit, admits his relations with Mrs. Elias and that he had given her wealth, but claims that the money was forced from him under threats. Chef "Alick" Entertains William N.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—A while ago my health began to fail because of female troubles. The doctor djd not help me. I remembered that my mother had used Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound on many occasions for irregularities and uterine troubles, and I felt sure that it could not harm me at any rate to give it a trial. "I was certainly glad to find that within a week I felt much better, the terrible pains in the back and side were beginning to cease, and at the time of menstruation I did not have nearly as serious a time as heretofore, so I continued its use for two months, and at the end of that time I was like a new woman. I really have never felt better in my life, have not had a sick headache since, and weigh 20 pounds more than I ever did, so I unhesitatingly recommend your medicine." —MRS.

Native of Portugal Promises to Melt Any Metal by Agency of the Sun's Rays. M. A. G. Himalaya, a Portuguese priest from Lisbon, Portugal, and a professor of science in a college in Porto and Coimbra, has arrived at the St. Louis fair with a novel invention by means of which he promises to melt anything by the agency of the sun's rays. Space has been granted him outside the palace of liberal arts, where he will install his mammoth machine weighing 30 tons and occupying 100x60 feet of space. The machine is a system of giant lenses which concentrate the rays of the sun from a large area at a focal point. Pinto Leite, of Lisbon, is with the inventor. A Double Motive. Russia's decision not to participate in the St. Louis fair, says the Philadelphia North American, is solely due to the belief that she can make a sufficient exhibition of herself in the far east.

REGER, Barth Block, Denver, Colo Rice Straw, at Present Only a Nuisance, Will be Utilized—Big Plant Soon to be Erected in Louisiana. It is announced that one of the largest paper mills in the south will be established at an early day in the rice district of Louisiana, either at Crowley or Jennings, for the purpose of manufacturing paper from rice straw. The enterprise will be backed by northern capital, and the mill, it is estimated, will cost $150,000. Every new factory is, of course, welcomed in the south, but this paper mill means a great deal more than a single new industrial enterprise. If it proves the success hoped for it will bring about a revolution in the paper world, and will give new wealth and prosperity to a section which has been wonderfully favored of late years in the development of its resources—southwest Louisiana. As is well known, the paper manufacturers of the country have been looking for years for a new material convertible into wood pulp, the chief stock of the paper manufactured today. The supply of spruce, which so far has been found the best material, is nearly exhausted, and it is hoped to secure something equally or nearly as good. The country has been searched far and wide for materials, and half a dozen have been discovered that will do fairly well. The hope still exists that something better may yet be found, and the manufacturers of late have turned their eyes toward the south as a section rich in timber and other possible wood stocks, but which has not as yet been sufficiently examined. Track has been kept of this movement during the last two years in which it has been in progress. There have been a dozen different experiments, all more or less successful. Two of these have received and are entitled to great consideration, because their success means so much to our leading agricultural industries—the manufacture of paper from bagasse, or the crushed stalk of the sugar cane, and from rice straw. There are two bagasse paper mills, one in Texas and one in Louisiana, and they are doing so well that we may look for others to follow at an early day. That rice straw will make good paper has been well established. The experiment now proposed will show how good and what profit it will yield. There is enough bagasse and rice straw produced in Louisiana and thrown away to-day as a waste product not only of no possible value, but frequently a great nuisance and difficult to get rid of, to furnish the paper demands of the entire country. The next few years will settle the question whether these materials are destined to play the leading part in the paper industry. If they prove thoroughly satisfactory it will not only transfer to the south a new and profitable industry, but will materially increase the profit of the cane and rice growers and strengthen the industries in which they are engaged. WILL AID COTTON GROWING. Government Giving Impetus to Industry by Furnishing Sea Island Seed to Porto Ricans. The United States government, through its agricultural experiment station at Mayaguez, Porto Rico, has determined to encourage the growing of Sea island cotton in the new possession. Special Agent Mark D. Gardener is sending out notices that he has received a quantity of Sea island cotton seed from Edisto island, South Carolina, and that he will supply free not to exceed four pounds each to planters and farmers who wish to experiment with the seed. The seed was bought and forwarded to Porto Rico by the office of industrial plants in the United States department of agriculture, Washington, D.C., and it is only requested that every planter or farmer making experiments shall inform the Porto Rico station of the results and send a sample of the product for transmission to Washington. Mr. Gardener's offer is accompanied by a circular letter from President R. M. Walker, of the Walker Cotton and Industrial company, San Juan, in which Mr. Walker tells in deail how to obtain the best possible results from Sea island cotton planting in Porto Rico. Mr. Walker pleads strongly for a rigid quarantine against the Mexican cotton boll weevil and the destruction of all seed except the Sea island variety. Warning to Young Men.

A man who had both jaws shot away had trouble eating ordinary food but found a food-drink that supplies the nutriment needed. He says: "I have been an invalid since the siege of Vicksburg, in 1866, where I was wounded by a Minie ball passing through my head and causing the entire loss of my jaws. I was a drummer boy and at the time was leading a skirmish line, carrying a gun. Since that time I have been awarded the medal of honor from the Congress of the United States for gallantry on the field. "The consequences of my wound were dyspepsia in its most aggravated form and I finally proved ordinary coffee was very hard on my stomach so I tried Postum and got better. Then I tried common coffee again and got worse. I did this several times and finally as Postum helped me every time I continued to use it, and how often I think that if the Government had issued Postum to us in the Army how much better it would have been for the soldier boys than coffee. "Coffee constipates me and Postum does not; coffee makes me spit up my food, Postum does not; coffee keeps me awake nights, Postum does not. There is no doubt coffee is too much of a stimulant for most people and is the cause of nearly all the constipation. "This is my experience and you are at liberty to use my name."

A Grave in Alaska Is Said to Contain the Body of Murderer Tascott. Chicago, June 1.—A special to the News from Victoria, B. C., says: If the voluntary declaration of a dying man is to be believed, finis has been written to the historic Snell tragedy of 15 years ago in Chicago and Tascott, the long sought murderer, self-identified, has paid the penalty of his crime with penitence and now fills an unmarked grave in the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, whither he had fled. THE ROSEBUD INDIAN RESERVATION. 382,000 Acres of Fertile and Well Watered Lands Open to Settlement. Some two years ago the Chicago & North-Western Ry built their Verdigre & Bonesteel line to the eastern border of the Rosebud Indian Reservation, thus securing the only direct line from Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Sioux City, Omaha and other points in the west to the fertile region which is now to be thrown open to settlement under the United ONE OF THE UTTERMOST. Even Commercial Travelers Were Not Beyond the Reach of Saving Grace. Dan Daly, the actor, who died recently, whenever he was idie in New York had a great habit of attending Salvation Army meetings. He believed in the Salvation Army, and he contributed liberally to its support. Sometimes, too, he had interesting things to tell about it, says the New York Tribune. One evening, rather late, Daly and a commercial traveler entered the Fifth Ave. Philip Robertson, a strictly reliable prospector and miner, received the dying man's confession, and tells the story. Robertson left the Klondike capital late last fall in a small boat bound for the new placer grounds at Fairbanks. He reached a point near Dahl river, in a desolate region, when the wailing of a dog surprised his ears. He found the dog, a half starved shepherd, seemingly in much distress. Following this animal, Robertson was brought to a seemingly deserted cabin some 400 yards. above the river, concealed in a clump of spruce. "I ventured to the door of the shack and knocked," says Robertson, "and there was a feeble 'come in.' All was darkness inside and there was no sign of a fire. I caught sight of a bit of candle, which I lighted and then advanced to where a man lay. "With a feeble effort he stared at me for a minute. Then he said: 'Are you an officer?' "I soon had a fire going and again approached the bed. The man's hair was white as snow, his face had a color in it that looked like death and he had the most terrified and hopeless expression I have ever seen on a human being. "Partner,' he said, finally, 'I'm leaving a world that I did not appreciate. I'm going to — where I belong.' "In a few minutes he gave another wild scream and straightened up in bed. Then in a voice you would think came from a good, strong man, he said: "See here, boys, my name is Tascott. I'm Tascott. Do you understand? I'm Tascott that they've been hunting like a wolf for years. I cannot run any more. I'm getting paid for what I did. I know I'm dying and I know where I'll go. Tell the boys when they come back that I am Tascott, and you can tell the world, too, for the world has hunted me a long time." PIERS IN FLAMES. A Big Blaze on the Jersey City Water Front. New York, May 30.—Seven freight and coal piers of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western railroad in Jersey City were destroyed by a fire that started about 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon in pier 12, on which a number of barrels of oil were stored. The flames spread rapidly. Pier 12 was 800 feet long and was soon ablaze its entire length, and the firemen who were trying to fight the fire from the shore were able to accomplish but little. The flames swept across to pier 11 and beyond, being finally checked at pier 5, which is a new coal trestle, steel framed and ironclad. Here the firemen and fire boats made a desperate stand and stayed the advance of the fire until the burning piers crumbled and fell into the water. A number of canal boats and several tugs were burned, the loss of small boats being variously estimated from 30 to 200. The number of freight cars burned is not known, but on this class of rolling stock and on coal cars the loss will be heavy. Piers 11 and 12 were full of general merchandise; piers 7, 8; 9 and 10 were used for coal and pier 6 was a grain loading pier. FRANCE WILL HELP Her Minister at Tangier Will Take Steps Toward Securing the Release of Americans Held by Bandits. Washington, June 1.—This cablegram has been received at the navy department from Rear Admiral Chadwick, commanding the South Atlantic squadron at Tangier: "The seizure of the American citizen was by insurgent chief so as to bring pressure on the sultan of Morocco to secure the demands of the tribe. Our sense of the gravity of the case is shown by the presence of the American squadron and will undoubtedly cause the earlier yielding by the sultan of Morocco to the demands of the chief, which is the only safe means of releasing captive." Paris, June 1.—Foreign Minister Delcasse in consequence of a communication from the state department at Washington, has telegraphed instructions to the French minister at Tangier to use his utmost endeavors to obtain the release of Ion Perdicaris and Cromwell Varley. Jury Failed to Agree Rising Sun, Ind., May 30.—After deliberating 42 hours without coming to an agreement, Judge Downey on Sunday discharged the jury in the Gillespie case. When the jury was brought into the court room Judge Downey asked them whether there was any probability of agreeing on a verdict and every one of the 12 men shook their heads in the negative. Judge Downey then thanked them and dismissed them from further service. Car Barns Were Robbed Car Barns Were Robbed.

Some two years ago the Chicago & North-Western R'y built their Verdigre & Bonesteel line to the eastern border of the Rosebud Indian Reservation, thus securing the only direct line from Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul, Sioux City, Omaha and other points in the west to the fertile region which is now to be thrown open to settlement under the United States Homestead laws. Under President Roosevelt's proclamation United States Registry Land Offices are to be opened July 5th at Yankton, Fairfax and Bonesteel, S. D., for the registration of applicants for these lands. The registration books will remain open until July 23d, and commencing July 28th, drawings will take place, to determine the order in which the applicants will be permitted to make final entry and settlement. The final entry begins at Bonesteel, August 8th. No one is permitted to register or make entry to land by mail, but must be personally present at one of the three points named for registration and at Bonesteel for final entry. The lands are well watered by the Missouri, Niobrara and White rivers and are remarkably fertile, situated in the midst of the great corn belt of the Missouri Valley, where similar land is worth from $20 to $50 an acre. With an altitude of about 2,200 feet, they are in a region which cannot be excelled for healthfulness. A heavy influx of people is looked for at these points of registration, and everything possible is being done by the North-Western Line to spread broadcast all information that is of interest to applicants for these lands. Complete maps and folders have been issued and are being distributed free on application to the representatives of the Passenger Department. NOTHING BUT CHICKENS. He Had a Bad Cough, But That, He Said, Was All He Some amusing incidents occur at the free dispensary of the different hospitals in town, often because the poor patients fail to understand the terms used by the doctors. The following incident occurred at the University hospital the other day, and illustrates the point in question, relates the Philadelphia Telegraph. A man came in who the doctor thought was suffering from beginning penumonia, so after getting his name and address and other necessary data, he asked the patient if he had a chill. "Yes, a very bad chill yesterday," came the answer. "Do you cough much?" asked the doctor. "Yes, some," replied the patient, with a practical illustration. "Do you raise anything?" was the next question. The man hesitated a moment, then answered, innocently: "Well, only a few chickens." Could You Use Any Find of a Sewing Machine at Any Price?

Dan Daly, the actor, who died recently, whenever he was idie in New York had a great habit of attending Salvation Army meetings. He believed in the Salvation Army, and he contributed liberally to its support. Sometimes, too, he had interesting things to tell about it, says the New York Tribune. One evening, rather late, Daly and a commercial traveler entered the Fifth Avenue hotel together. Daly, with a nod toward his companion, said: "My friend and I were at a meeting of the army to-night. The captain, after his address, passed through the audience, questioning the people. Coming to my friend, he said: "What is your business, sir?" "‘I am a commercial traveler,’ was the answer. "‘And are you saved?’ "‘Oh, I’m all right.’ "At this reply the captain, turning to the congregation, shouted in a loud voice: "‘Hallelujah!’ a commercial traveler saved. God can save to the uttermost!” Doubtful Compliment. Poultney Bigelow, who has accepted the chair of foreign relations at Boston university, had completed an address before the Twentieth Century club of Chicago. A young man congratulated Mr. Bigelow rather awkwardly on this address, and the learned traveler replied: "That is a doubtful compliment.

From his infancy, Verne, the little five-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Barfoot, of this place, has been sickly. His mother consulted a doctor, but he did not begin to improve till some one suggested that she try a remedy called Dodd's Kidney Pills. From unmistakable symptoms she had always believed that his Kidneys were the first cause of all the trouble, so she bought a box of Dodd's Kidney Pills and began giving little Verne two pills a day. In two or three days she noticed an improvement and she kept on till he had used about two boxes when to her great joy, he was all right. Everybody remarks how much better Verne looks and Mrs. Barfoot always explains: "Dodd's Kidney Pills saved his life."
