TRADE STOCK COUNCIL CLEVELAND. CLEVELAND. SATURDAY. JULY 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. Our good friend, Mr. Frank H. Warren, is now managing editor of the Detroit Informer. It shows marked improvement, too, as a result. Lawrence N. Jones, formerly of Parkersburg, W. Va., who succeeded Rev. D. R. Wilkins as editor of the Chicago Conservator a few weeks ago, has resigned in favor of W. Allison Sweeney, an experienced "newspaper man" and a strong writer. Welcome, confrere, on your return to the work. The Conservator was unfortunate in losing Editor Wilkins and is fortunate in securing Editor Sweeney. Northern Afro-American republicans are so greatly in the minority in every congress district in the north that they have no valid claim in practical politics to a delegate to a national convention. Therefore it is a distressing exhibition of ignorance of politics, to harp upon the fact that none of our men in this section were delegates to the Chicago convention. We are all so pleased over the showing made by our brethren of the south in spite of the many and tremendous barriers, that it would be folly to harp upon the fact that they secured only about one-tenth of what they are entitled to when their numerical strength as southern republicans is taken into consideration. And this is an extremely conservative estimate, too. All such invidious comparisons and comments should not be heralded because they have an effect that tends to widen a gap that for years has been closing; and, too, to the everlasting credit and benefit of all our people, north and south, all of whom are entitled to great praise for the same. A few race publications can give this much thought and benefit themselves greatly as a result. WILLIAMS AND THE PLANK. John Sharp Williams in reply to Hon. Elihu Root's able address before the national republican convention at Chicago, to say the least, was feeble in his attempt to destroy the truth and effect of the argument contained in the speech of the ex-secretary. But, when Mr. Williams took up that part of the republican platform, known as the "Negro Plank," humau conscience quailed in view of the criminality confronting southern democracy. The plank reads; "We favor such congressional action as shall determine whether by special discrimination the elective franchise in any state has been unconstitutionally limited." At the reading of the above lines, the mark of Cain might have been felt upon the brow of every democrat who knew of this unconstitutional robbery. Mr. Williams was daring in his assault upon points adduced by republicans, but in his soul, conscious of the perfidy and guilt of his party in this crime against Afro-Americans, like a cringing coward, he said: "The only unconstitutional limitation would be in violation of the fifteenth amendment, because of race, color or previous condition of servitude." He acknowledges the unconstitutionality of the act, he admits the violation of the fifteenth amendment and that it is all done because of race. Then on this head, he concludes: "The only unconstitutional limitation would be in violation of the fifteenth amendment." This is a shameless admission, too shocking to believe. But John Sharp Williams says it is "the only unconstitutional limitation in violation of the fifteenth amendment," as though the south must be tolerated in its crimes against the people's government. The American people have built here a free republic consecrated by the blood of fallen heroes, and which is to be transmitted and perpetuated forever. But John Sharp Williams, in the name of southern democracy, assumes the right to annul the amendments and to thus destroy the constitution and break up the government. He very well knows that southern democracy stands guilty of a crime against the republic, and against the liberties of the people; yet he had the effrontery and the "gall" to rise before an American assembly and tell them that the only unconstitutional limitation is contained in the violation of a fundamental, a national law! Upon what authority does he violate this law? By what right can he do so? By none whatever. But he takes this right according to the old proslavery dogma, 'that black men have no rights that southern white men need to respect.' In defiance of all the broad measures of equality and justice, measures long since adopted and rati- fled by the states, he stubbornly rails against the powers of the general government. In basest hypocricy and with unmatched audacity, yet with glassy eyes betraying the guilt of condemnation upon his soul, he becomes rebel, traitor and disorganizer, only because he despises the Negro, despises his color and would again reduce him to a condition of servitude. Instead of acknowledging himself the nation's debtor and showing profound gratitude that we stand today a people one and inseparable, Mr. Williams and his followers, as in the ante-bellum days, rise in the pathway of liberty's grand march to oppress and proscribe a race, to forge chains upon human beings and to enslave a country. Our government is broad enough and great enough to protect all of its citizens. It is magnificent in facilities and resources and is fully competent to admister those duties which are specifically national and it has an absolute right to impel invasion against its powers. It is its duty to resist every encroachment upon the federal laws and to suppress any measure discriminating against the elective franchise in any state within the United States. These acts of discrimination do exist. They stand as glaring encroachments upon the rights of citizens and they exist in utter violation of the organic law and of one of the proudest and foremost nations on the globe. Unless such discriminations shall cease, it becomes the people by congressional act to reduce proportionately such representation in the house and in the electoral college. THE MERIT SYSTEM It becomes a matter of regret that national legislation, while designed to consummate ends helpful to the citizens of the republic, is often so construed as to discriminate against the less favored under our common government. In the several departments of our government, the one is to serve as a balancing power upon the other. Yet it is possible that the one may encroach upon the other with no attempt to rectify the imposition. Effort has been long made to bring about civil service reform, so as to allow every citizen free and equal patronage. The law offers such a provision and it very justly demands an equal distribution of the honors and offices of the government. To deny this right is open robbery and treason against the government. Is there anything crooked in the management of this distribution that might justify a fair and well deserved criticism? The "merit system" when first instituted was regarded as a reformatory measure and well designed to shield the rights of every citizen seeking federal patronage. Instead of this it has become a powerful agency of robbery and corruption. Upon the recommendation of President Cleveland civil service reform was inaugurated and congress appointed its several committees and sub-committees to supervise a strict and impartial examination of candidates applying for official promotion. Everywhere the measure was applauded as a fair and just adjustment of the civil service problem. It was believed to be a purely safe dealing system. True enough, the civil service law was placed on the statute books by the republican party, which has always sustained it, and although the party in power has declared its purpose to see that it is thoroughly and honestly enforced, yet that law is not justly and fairly carried out according to its original provision. That law is not enforced without bias and without discrimination so long as the "merit system" is so managed as to ignore the just claims of one in the interest of another. The committee so appointed are sworn to dispense justice in the light of facts, but when merit is treated with undeserved contempt, and favoritism becomes the governing rule, can we hope for any show of justice under the present reform system? The fault rests with the examining committee, who choose to exclude successful candidates in preference to those whom they would favor. The claims of Afro-Americans who prove themselves successful should be equally respected and conceded. Committees who do otherwise are none the less criminals and need to answer more strictly for their methods in dealing. George to Go to Africa. Geo. Dixon, the ex-featherweight champion of the world, and who has been boxing so successfully, financially also, over in England for the past two years, will leave that country in a week to visit South Africa, where he has received an offer for a series of bouts with the 120 pound men. A South African fight promoter has offered the little Afro-American boxer $200 for expenses and a guarantee of $2,000 each for three matches, to take place in August. Dixon has accepted the offer, and expects to make a stay of a year in that country.

A Bank Clerk Who Stole Unsigned Currency Tells His Story to a Detective. St. Louis, July 12.—Robert B. Taylor, interest clerk of the Citizens' Central national bank, of New York City, who was arrested while trying to dispose of bank notes, a part of $6,720 which he had taken from the Central national bank before its merger with the Citizens' bank and before the notes had been signed by the officers of the bank, made a confession Monday to Secret Service Agent John E. Murphy and Henry Demse, cashier of the Citizens' Central national bank. Mr. Demse, in telling of the confession, said: "Taylor has confessed the entire business. He states that when the money was delivered to him by the express messenger he took it. That was in October of last year, before the merger of the two banks. He took the money to his home, where he dug a hole in the cellar under his house and buried it. It remained there unknown to anyone until a few weeks ago. Mrs. Taylor was in the Adirondacks for a few weeks and Taylor had announced his intention of joining her. He waited one night until his son had gone to bed and then secured the money from the cellar. He signed the notes and cut them apart. Before that they had been in sheets. He then took the train for St. Louis." A Sweeping Reform. St. Petersburg, July 12.—The system of condemning political prisoners by administrative order has been abolished by imperial decree and persons accused of political crimes henceforth will be tried by the courts, under the regular procedure. This reform is most far-reaching, ending forever the arbitrary condemnation to exile or even death of political suspects without the intervention of the courts. It is considered to be one of the most sweeping reforms of this generation. Fairbanks Visits Roosevelt. Oyster Bay, N. Y., July 12.—Senator Charles W.

She can be consulted upon all affairs of Life, Love, Courtship, Marriage, Friends, etc., with description of future companion.

She reads your destiny—good or bad; she withholds nothing. MRS. MARTH, born with a double veil, is a seventh daughter, tells your entire life—past present and future—in a DEAD TRANCE; has the power of any two clairvoyants you ever met. She tells whether your present sweetheart will be true to you and if he will marry you; if you have no sweetheart, she will tell you when you will have, and his name, business and date of acquaintance. Clairvoyantly ALL YOUR QUEUE will be written if an honest, clear, and manly man and in a dead trance. Mothers should know the success of their husbands and children; young ladies should know everything about their sweethearts and intended husband. Do not keep company, marry or go into business until you know all; do not let silly religious serpues prevent your consulting. Macamie is the only one in the world who can tell you the FULL NAME of your future husband, with age and date of marriage, and tells whether the one you love is true or false. Reader, do you ever notice that some people seem to have good luck all the time, and no matter what they do they seem to prosper, while others, yourself may-be, have such a hard time to get along, and no matter how hard they try, they find at the end of the year they are no better off than when they started. This is because not only do not have the right Medium, while the successful people, in all probabilities, have been to one of the genuine Mediums and obtained advice. If you are unsuccessful in business, have bad luck, things go wrong with you, then you should consult Mrs. Marth. She will tell you what your trouble is, as she understands the spells and evil influences. She has spent years helping distressed persons and has brought thousands to success.

Mrs. A. J. Crosswhite, G: W. C., Court of Calanthe, of the state, and Mrs. Rosa Smith, W. C., both of Springfield, were guests of Mr. and Mrs. H. C. Jackson, of Greenwood street, while in the city recently. Marriage invitations have been issued to a few friends by Frank W. Brown and Blanch Lewis to their nuptials on next Thursday evening at Mrs. Sands', No. 631 Sterling avenue. The Gazette was among those favored. Mrs. Rosa Johnson, president of this district's M. M. society; Miss Ida M. Brown, of Glddings avenue, and other delegates attended the annual meeting of the organization, held in Steubenville, Thursday and Friday of this week. Mrs. John Edwards, of Hackman street, entertained at dinner in honor of Mrs. D. A. Mathews, of Ravenna, and Mrs. C. P. Lancaster, of Collinwood, last week Thursday. Mrs. C. Burke entertained in their honor on the 13th. Signed articles for the battle between Mike Schreck and Joe Walcott are in possession of the Saginaw Boxing club and a date will be selected within the week for the battle. The men are to go ten rounds at catchweights. W. T. Allen, for some months in charge of an apartment house on Euclid avenue, in the East End, has resigned the position and returned to the employ of a prominent Cleveland, who has a summer home near Wheeling, W. Va. Many of Cory Chapel's members and pastor will leave Wednesday to attend the district conference at Cadiz, July 20-25. The church and Sunday school rooms are undergoing repairs and every thing will be bright and new for Sunday. Mr. Robert Sehon, of Minneapolis, Minn., a former popular resident of Cleveland, was in the city from Wednesday of last week until Monday, visiting his sister, Miss Eva Sehon, of Livingston street. While here he stopped at Mr. Andrew Edwards, Do not call to see Mr. Garland's advertisement elsewhere in this paper, if you want a home, or want to stop paying rent, or want to live right. You don't need a whole lot of money to start with, either. He'll build you a home. Phone or call upon him at once. Quarterly meeting at Cory church last Sunday. Rev. H. W. Simmons, P. E., preached at 11 a. m. and 3 p. m. Rev. Cory preached at 8 p. m. The services were well attended all day. The sub-division of the district Epworth League, conducted by Mrs. Amanda Thomas, was a very unique affair. Major Taylor is reported to be on his way from Australia in company with Don Walker, the Australian champion. Although his plans are not definitely known, it is expected that Taylor will compete in the championship races at the St. Louis world's fair during the first week in August. At St. John's church to-morrow evening at 7:45 there will be a "semi-rest" meeting. This is a departure from the usual custom of long and wearisome sermons on hot summer evenings. Miss Helen Bolden will have a paper; solos by Miss Annis Stokes and Mrs. Lulu Mead Johnson; an original poem by Clarence Allen. Special music by the choir. H. C. Gilbert, secretary of the band, writes The Gazette: "Kindly allow me space to set the Buckeye State Band aright with the public regarding the frost on the Fourth at Mulberry park. The band was hired or secured by Mr. Jackson, and after arriving on the grounds we had to take charge of the dancing hall to secure our money." Now is the time when jury commissioners are being deluged with scores of names of men for jury service in the coming year. The old names will be taken out of the jury box about August 20 and 1,000 new names put in. The commissioners will have several thousand names to choose from. A friend must ask the favor for you. You cannot do so under the law. S. C. Green was refused a seat at the Colonial theater one evening last week after being admitted and has entered suit for $500 damages under Hon. H. C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law. Good! This is the only way to put a stop to such insulting discrimination. Use the law! The supreme court of Ohio has declared it constitutional and good. Mr. Green has an excellent witness, too, in Mrs. Mollie French. Leroy A. Douglass writes from Youngstown that he was not jailed when arrested by Company D., but that with John Parker and Ralph Lewis, he was taken to the armory. He also says he did not go to Detroit, but to Youngstown on business. We are glad to learn this as "Roy" is a steady and reliable young man. He also says that the detachment of Company D. "desired to show off their new uniforms." Rev. Chas. Bundy, P. E., of this A. M. E. church district; Rev. H. W. Simmons, P. E., of this M. E. church district, and Rev. R. L. Dickerson, of Cory Chapel, paid The Gazette sanctum a very pleasant visit last week, Friday morning. Elder Simmons was greatly pleased with The Gazette's portrait and sketch of Bishop Scott, published in our issue of July 2. For years he has been a great admirer of this paper. The committeemen of St. Andrew's Mission will give an entertainment in the basement of the church, the evening of July 27. No morning service Sunday on account of Harry O. Bowles' ordination at Grace church at that hour. There will be a service and preaching by Rev. Fortescue Cole at 3:30 p. m. His talk will be a continuation of the talk given last Sunday afternoon by Rev. E. S. Doan. The public is invited. Messrs. Simmons and Bass have sold their saloon on the corner of Mayflower street and Central avenue, to George Copes, who has Joseph Ingraham as an assistant in the conduct of it. They will do well as both are well known and well liked. Mr. Bass is now located on Mr. Simmons' twelve acre farm in North Olmstead Lorain county, about seventeen miles southeast of the city. The editor of The Gazette spent July 3 and 4 there and was much pleased. Two young men from Fremont arrived in the city Tuesday. One of them was a member of the race. The latter was refused at a little restaurant at 210 Seneca street, while the former was served. Owing to the number of persons in the place, they were seated at different tables. When our folks in this community reach the point where they will resent oftener such mistreatment as this, and in a proper way (in the courts), much, if not nearly all of it, will be stopped. The pastor spoke to a large and appreciative audience at Antioch church Sunday morning on the "Enlarged Life." He and Deacon Noble attended the national B. Y. P. U. convention in Detroit last week. They reported to Antioch's organization at its evening service, which was unusually well attended. The Sunday-school was favored with an excellent address by Attorney Thomas A. Good, of Columbus. The old church must be vacated by August 1. One of the nearest business places in the city is that of I. B. Bowman at No. 569 Central avenue, opposite Laurel street. Mr. and Mrs. Bowman have the best ice cream, soda water, candies, cigars and flowers for sale and in a few days will be prepared to serve light lunches. Our people should take pride in patronizing them, because their charges are as reasonable as any and they give the best service. Across the street at their old stand. No. 580 Central avenue, Mr. Bowman is conducting a news-stand and shining parlor, which ought also to be patronized liberally. A visit of the "devil" (office or crand boy) is thus chronicled: "Mr. Leroy L. Crawford went to Oberlin, O., tor a short visit to recruit from his large time at Chicago and the St. Louis Exposition."—Ex. "Wouldn't it tickle you? "To recruit from his large time at Chicago," is good, deuced good. To get courage to patronize race restaurants, Crawford's "Gem" for instance, would be better however, far better. Wonder if he took that famous satchel with collar and cuffs enclosed, that Davy Manson, now of Chicago, used to envy when here? Ask him. The Retreat maintained by the Y. W. C. A., of St. Clair street, has a little two weeks old male baby for whom it desires a good home in some of our families. The matron, Mrs. J. Robeson, sald Tuesday, "The brightest baby, black or white, we ever had here." When they laid him down on his round stomach for a bath, Master T. J. placed his hands under him and raised himself alone. "How's that," THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1904. they ask, "for a baby less, than two weeks old?" "He's a pretty boy with alky hair," said Mrs. Robeson. "We want to do all we can do for him." Now, who wants a baby? We noticed in an Associated Press dispatch last week that there was a Negro democratic national convention held in St. Louis on the 7th to form a league and select a national committee. It seems that our local democrats occupy the same relative position as their white brothers of the city. The former were not represented in the convention. Cleveland democrats (white or black) don't seem to be considered in national democratic politics. John Richardson, night watchman at the City hall, and James A. Tyler served refreshments on the special train which carried the Ohio delegation to the St. Louis convention. The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of the invitation from "The Bachelors", of Pittsburg, to attend their annual "outing." This year it will be held on the steamer, "Francis I. Torrance", which will carry the large crowd on Wednesday next to Moss Side park. We hope to be with our "Smoky City" bachelor friends and their other guests—the social "cream" of the twin cities and surrounding country for 15 miles. The "Bachelors:" Messrs. Adrian Kyle Neale, George Henry Wilson, Samuel Robert Rosemond, Fred Lincoln Stewart, Charles Henry Myers, a former resident of Cleveland, Frank Rudolph Steward, John William Henry and Wallace Alexander Clark. All "thoroughbreds." The Ladies' Aid society of St. John's church was organized since J. M. Gilmere's arrival in the city. Mrs. Gilmere is president. The object of the organization is to assist the stewards and trustees of the church. The Aid society turned over to the latter at the last rally $70. There is also an auxiliary of young ladies, known as the Callender club, which gave the trustees $13. The total amount the two societies have given the trustees since last fall is $138. The Willing Workers, Mrs. R. Justice, president, contributed $32 to the rally. The Aid society gave The Gazette a vote of thanks for its assistance in the effort to make the Madam Selika recital the grand success every indication points to its being. It is to be the musical event of the late season. The president of the society adds her personal thanks to The Gazette. Madam Selika's coming is a ray of musical sunshine greatly needed. She was always a favorite here in Cleveland, where she lived and taught music many months some years ago, and we predict an audience to greet her at St. John's church on Wednesday evening, July 20, that will tax the capacity of the large auditorium. The madam has been our greatest and most dignified classical singer so long that our people of this city cannot show her too much honor by their presence on the evening in question, after years' absence from the city and in the midst of her concern as the result of a stroke of paralysis sustained by her husband, the popular baritone, Signor Velosko (Mr. Sampson W. Williams). Let us make the madam's heart warm, extremely so, by a generous outpouring at her recital and an enthusiasm upon her appearance that will make everybody happy. Cruiser Chased a Fishing Vesse St. Johns, N. F., July 14.—French fishing vessels from the Grand Banks have been unable to obtain bait at St. Pierre and they are alleged to be busily smuggling bait from Newfoundland waters in defiance of the bait act. On Tuesday one vessel eluded a colonial cruiser after being chased into the St. Pierre roadstead. Seven local fishermen have been fined $200 each for supplying bait to the French vessels. The colonial government will enforce the bait act and officers will do their utmost to prevent further infractions of the act. Thousands Have Registered: Bonesteel S. D., July 14.—Nearly 15,000 persons have visited Bonesteel since the opening of the registers for entry men on the Rosebud Indian reservation last week. Most of these visitors have registered, and the crowds continue to come. The town council has forced undesirable persons to leave. A Great Fair! The "Lexington Fair" is the only one in this section of the country conducted by our people and is each year a great one too. It has to be seen to be appreciated. See the advertisement elsewhere in this paper announcing its thirty-fifth annual gathering and arrange to attend it. Go there instead of to St. Louis. Rode on a Cyclone. Ft. Worth, Tex.—A cyclone passed across Parker county late Tuesday. Several houses were blown down near Mineral Wells and a number of persons are reported injured. An Afro-American who was driving on a load of cotton hulls was picked up bodily, carried 100 yards and gently deposited in a field uninjured. Will Study the Tariff Laws. Chicago, July 12.—The Filipino commissioners to the Louisiana Purchase exposition who have been in Chicago for the past week, have decided to make a study of the American tariff laws and industrial conditions a feature of the remainder of their trip through this country. Americans Won at Cricket Philadelphia, July 14.—The Philadelphia cricketers, representing the United States, yesterday won the international cricket match from Canada, which was begun on the grounds of the Merion Cricket club at Haverford on Monday. Rather Queer! Atlanta, Ga.—Our people here are still asking the question as to why Atlanta university let the contract for its new building to a white contractor, notwithstanding the fact that a reliable Afro-American contractor was the lowest bidder.

TWO PAT ILLUSTRATIONS Speaking of toads, with incidental reference to other salatory animal life, recalls a most attributed to one of the justices of the supreme court, which has been giving the Washington gossip a good deal of amusement of late, says the New York Evening post. He was dining the other evening with the family of a distinguished ex-senator, who are noted for their extravagant advocacy of the vegetarian diet. Over the delicacies of the table, which included pretty nearly every form of edible plant life suited to the season, conversation turned upon the familiar theme; and the hostess, after trying in vain, to convert her beef-reared guest by arguments based on the chemical constituents of various food, pleaded: "But surely, Mr. Justice, you must admit that vegetarianism means strength and agility, when you remember that the rabbit, which feeds wholly on vegetables, can make such great leaps through the air from hiding place to hiding place." "True, madam," answered the jurist, gravely, "but we must also remember that the minute creature for which naturalists claim the ability to jump more its own length than any other, belongs to the class of pure carnivora." SAVED CHILD'S LIFE. Remarkable Cure of Dropsy by Dodd's Kidney Pills. Sedgwick, Ark., July 11—The case of W. F. Taylor's little son is looked upon by those interested in medical matters as one of the most wonderful on record. In this connection his father makes the following statement: "Last September, my little boy had Dropsy; his feet and limbs were swollen to such an extent that he could not walk nor put his shoes on. The treatment that the doctors were giving him seemed to do him no good and two or three people said his days were short, even the doctors, two of the best in the country told me he would not get better. I stopped their medicine and at once sent for Dodd's Kidney Pills. I gave him three Pills a day, one morning, noon and night for eight days; at the end of the eighth day the swelling was all gone, but to give the medicine justice, I gave him eleven more Pills. I used thirty-five Pills in all and he was entirely cured. I consider your medicine saved my child's life. When the thirty-five Pills were given him, he could run, dance and sing, whereas before he was an invalid in his mother's arms from morning until night." SUSPENDERS AND SUSPENSE A certain congressman from a mountain district, says the New York Sun, is troubled with a weak, squeaky little voice, which sometimes fails in the midst of what might otherwise be an eloquent peroration. Recently in addressing the house on a matter connected with tariff, he explained: "Why, tariffs are like a pair of suspenders, sometimes tight and sometimes loose; but Uncle Sam needs them just the same, to keep up his—" Here the congressman's voice struck a high treble note, flared and stopped. The house held its breath while he cleared his throat. The suspense, which seemed to last for fully a minute, was more painful to the auditors than to the orator, for everyone was wondering whether he would say "trousers" or "pants," and some were even hoping that he might say "pantaloons." Even "overalls" 'would be better than "pants," for "pants" is most unparliamentary. But all fears were without foundation. He cleared his throat with the greatest care, and in a death-like stillness resumed his oration where he had dropped it: "to keep up his running expenses—" The words which followed were lost The words which followed were lost forever in a gale of laughter. No Mister. Elihu Root, who has returned to the practice of law in New York city, has engaged a new office boy. Said Mr. Root: "Who carried off my paper basket?" "It was Mr. Reilly," said the boy. "Who is Mr. Reilly?" asked Mr. Root. "The janitor, sir." An hour later Mr. Root asked: "Jimmie, who opened the window?" "Mr. Lantz, sir." "And who is Mr. Lantz?" "The window cleaner, sir." Mr. Root wheeled about and looked at the boy, "See here, James," he said, "we call men by their first names here. We don't 'mister' them in this office. Do you understand?" "Yes, sir." In ten minutes the door opened and a small, shrill voice said: "There's a man here as wants to see you, Elihu."—Nashville Banner. Had Few Competitors "Every man has some fad," said the quiet man. "Mine is minding my own business." "Ah, I see," rejoined the philosophical person. "You are one of the monopolists we read so much about."—Stray Stories. A BACK LICK Many great discoveries have been made by accident and things better than gold mines have been found in this way, for example when even the accidental discovery that coffee is the real cause of one's sickness proves of most tremendous value because it locates the cause and the person has then a chance to get well. "For over 25 years," says a Missouri woman. "I suffered untold agonies in my stomach and even the best physicians isagreed as to the cause without giving me any permanent help, different ones saying it was gastritis, indigestion, neuralgia, etc., so I dragged along from year to year, always half sick, until finally I gave up all hopes of ever being well again. "When taking dinner with a friend one day she said she had a new drink which turned out to be Postum and I liked it so well I told her I thought I would stop coffee for awhile and use it, which I did. "So for three months we had Postum in place of coffee without ever having one of my old spells but was always healthy and vigorous instead. "Husband kept saying he was convinced it was coffee that caused those spells, but even then I wouldn't believe it until one day we got out of Postum and as we lived two miles from town I thought to use the coffee we had in the house. "The result of a week's use of coffee again was that I had another terrible spell of agony and distress proving that it was the coffee and nothing else. That settled it and I said good bye to Coffee forever and since then Postum alone has been our hot mealtime drink. "My friends all say I am looking worlds better and my complexion is much improved. All the other members of our family have been benefited, too, by Postum in place of the old drink, coffee." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. 'Ten days' trial of Postum in place of coffee or tea is the wise thing for every coffee drinker. Such a trial tells the exact truth often where coffee is not suspected.

A LITTLE BLUE BUTTERFLY By JULIA TRUITT BISHOP LINDY ran like a lapwing from the kitchen door, where her father had just read aloud the letter he had brought from town, to the hammock which was lazily swinging between the two oak trees in the corner of the yard. Her face was glowing through its freckles, and her lips were apart, for she panted as she ran. "Miss Marg'ret!" she cried tumultuously; and the young lady in the hammock raised her head a little way to look at her with surprised eyes. "Miss Marg'ret—he's comin' again—the gentleman that was here las' summer—we'vejes got a letter—father, he's goin' right back to town to meet the train—oh, Miss Marg'ret, he's comin' again!" Miss Margaret, opposed to the girl's flushed and palpitating joy, was a little pale and cold. She lay back in the hammock now, with both hands clasped behind her head, and looked at Lindy's burning face. "And to think I would have called you a quiet, lifeless little thing, if I had been asked a few moments ago!" she said. "The gentleman who was here last summer? I don't remember to have heard you speak of—of any such here as that. A summer boarder, was he? I wonder if he was as tired of everything in the world as I am. But you are a surprise, Lindy." "Oh, he's comin' back!" cried Lindy, clasping her sunburned hands in a kind of ecstasy. "There goes father to town, right now—an mother's fixin' up his old room!" "Lindy, I am ashamed of you!" said Miss Margaret, with half scornful laughter in her eyes. "I thought all the time it was Dave Lorry—and now do you mean to throw Dave's love away for some city man whom you hardly know—who comes out here to amuse himself—they all do that, city or country, with the exception of a Dave here and there; and nobody cares for the Daves!" "Dave!" repeated Lindy, scornfully. "I think I see myself noticin' Dave Lorry—great, big, backwoodsy thing like that!" The flush had dropped from her forehead, but still dwelt in her cheeks—twin roses which made freckles or sunburn of no account. Her dark blue calico waist, ill-made and ill-fitting, was turned in as to the neck and rolled up as to the sleeves, displaying a throat and arms that filled Miss Margaret with envy while she looked. She had been there an entire month, and had not once noticed them until now. But then—she had spent most of the time out there in the hammock, fighting her own battle and trying to learn endurance. She had barely taken notice of the pretty country girl before whom big, awkward Dave was offering sacrifice in vain. Miss Margaret, looking straight at Lindy, went off into thoughts that hurt. When she came back again Lindy had her hands clasped and was crying with deep be-seeing: "Oh, my clothes are so awful! I haven't got a thing that's fit to be seen! He ain't never seen me dressed up yet. Oh, Miss Marg'ret, if you only would!" "If I only would what?" asked Miss Margaret with a start. "If you'd only let me fix up—in one of your dresses—jes' for this one evening-" pleaded Lindy, with a sudden dew of longing in her pretty eyes. "I'd like for him to see—how I could look—if I only had a chance!" There was piteous supplication in Lindy's voice. For a moment Miss Margaret lay still, looking at her, and through her at something beyond. She was thinking, with a dull ache at her heart, how pretty the country girl was, and what a safe little nook Heaven had given her to be happy in, and how little happy she was, struggling to get away—just as other people did in other nooks. After a little/she rose up, with a weary laugh. "I brought only one of my pretty gowns with me," she said. "People don't need such things in the country—but I brought it because—well, because of what happened once when I had it on. But now I am going to give it to you, so that I may never think of it again. Come on—we will have you in brave array by the time the conquering hero comes—we will make a little blue butterfly of you, so that he can see how pretty you are." The little blue butterfly fluttered and gasped in front of the mirror in Miss Margaret's room. The round arms were bare and the white neck rose like a lily stem from amid the floating, filmy, shimmering blue. Miss Margaret had taken the bonny brown locks out of their stiff plait and had coiled and puffed them at the top of the dear-like head; and now she stood back, amazed at her own handiwork. "Oh—ain't it pretty!" cried Lindy, in a low tone that was almost a sob. She had asked it of the image in the glass. She had forgotten that Miss Margaret was there. She had forgotten that Miss Margaret had ever been. In a moment she heard Dave's voice in the kitchen, and stole softly out, will- GOD'S OUT-OF-DOORS "For the earth is the Lord's, and the fullness thereof."—I Corinthians, 10:26. There is a temple—not of stone, Nor with contracting walls and roof— Wherein each man may stand alone, And be from grosser things aloft; There with his soul he may commune, Where waters whisper to the shores And distant hills send back the croon— The temple of God's Out-of-Doors. It may be in some wooded place With sunshine sifting through the leaves Until its flashing jewels trace A wealth of rare mosaic weaves: All green and gold the forest walls. All gold and green the forest floors— This is the grandest of all halls, The temple of God's Out-of-Doors. God's Out-of-Doors! The ceaseless march Of sun and stars from night to dawn Trace for our eyes the dome's high arch, Show us what it is built on. Hymn, anthem and recessional The shouting storm in grandeur pours; Mute worshipers, we hear His call In this great House of Out-of-Doors. W. D. N. in Chicago Daily Tribune. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 16, 1904. ing to let him see what a creature or light and air she really was—how far removed from his homely life. Her mother had gone into the dining room and was making a great clattering there with the dishes. Dave started up from his chair and looked at her with a strained, frightened look on his face. "What you got on all that borrowed finery fur?" he demanded in a tone that he had never used to her. "It isn't borrowed, Mr. Lorry—it's mine—it's been give to me!" she retorted, tilting up her indignant little chin and sailing around him haughtily. "You look—I don't know how you look with such things on!" he said, almost with a groan. "We're all plain workin' people, Lindy. Take 'em off!—please take 'em off—you don't know what things it makes me think of—do take 'em off, Lindy!" "I'd like to know what you've got to do with it!" said the butterfly out of the midst of the blue cloud, frowning at him, and yet laughing, too, because she knew she was so pretty, and because another man was coming in a little while and he would see how pretty she was. Even while she fluttered around the room, she heard them coming—the sound of, wheels and her father's loud, jovial tones. He would come in through the kitchen, as he always did—her father always would bring people in through the kitchen. Not now—she could not see him at once—and the butterfly fled wildly through the house and out into the porch in front, where the moonlight caught and held her. Miss Margaret, glay-clad within and without, drew further back into the shadow of the vines, so that she could look at the radiant thing palpitating there in the moonlight. But what was this?—there was her father's voice in the kitchen—but some one was coming in at the front—and Lindy turned her back to the moonlight lest he should see how her heart, her foolish heart, was shaking her from head to foot. And then— Lindy lay still in his arms with the silly butterfly soul half swooning out of her. He was talking in broken sentences against the crown of bonny brown hair—and what was that he was saying? She steadied her reeling brain and tried to listen— "They told me you were here, Margaret—and I could not stay away longer—we must make it up—what is life worth without you? And you knew I was coming, and put on the dear blue gown to wait for me? Why, Margaret—I am not sure I would have had the courage to speak if I hadn't seen the blue gown. Sweetheart—don't let's quarrel again! It takes too much out of a man's life." He felt the light form begin to move, slowly and faintly. "Let me go!" the girl whispered, with her face still away from him. "I'll see you again—after awhile. Let me go—yes—we won't quarrel any more!" He did not let her go very readily, but she broke away from him and ran into a darkened room. He drew his hand across his eyes, and perhaps it was because of the happy mist there that he went into the house without noticing the gray figure that trembled and wept in the shadow of the vines. "But why did you change your gown?" he asked afterwards of the gray firure which sat on the step beside him in the moonlight. He did not care for the gown now, with Margaret's head on his shoulder; but it was worth while to ask, for this was another of the mysteries which made it impossible for any man to understand a woman. "You had seen it—that was all that was necessary," she answered, very softly. It was the voice of Lindy's mother that brought her out of her hiding place. "Come, Lindy, you'll have to clean up," it cried fretfully. "I'm clean fagged out, an' I want to set out at the door awhile and cool off." Lindy came slowly into the kitchen, winking against the glare of the tin reflector. She wore a blue calico waist, turned in as to the neck and rolled up as to the sleeves; and she was very white. Dave's lowering face lighted up as he looked at her. "Lindy"—he was standing close beside her—"Lindy, I'll wipe the dishes for ye, so's you can get through quick." The little blue butterfly which had danced and fluttered before him for such a brief space was gone. A wave of color came into the white face, but she surrendered the cloth without a word. Her silence filled him with vague trouble. "Don't mind what I said about the fine dress, Lindy," he said, with the gentleness of a giant who feels that he is unexpectedly handling a small thing whose wings are easily broken. "It jes' made me feel kinder—as if—you was so far away from me—and anyhow, I think ye look purtier like ye air now than anybody else does with all the finery they can put on." The flush in her cheeks deepered and spread. "I ain't goin' to put on the fine things any more, Dave," she said, humbly and a little wistfully. "I don't keer half as much about 'em—as I thought I did." And then, with a swift—shy glance into his face, she added: "An' it hasn't put me—so fur from you Dave—it's done—jes' the other way!" "Take keer you don't break none of them dishes, Lindy!" called the suddenly aroused voice of Lindy's mother from the back door. BALLOONS AND AUTOS RACE The Aero club, of Paris, recently had a race between balloons and automobiles that aroused great interest and afforded fine sport. A pilot balloon was first released as a guide for the other balloons. The condition was that the balloons must descend at a certain place, and within a certain area. Immediately after the balloons were loosed the autos of the best racing types started in pursuit. They had to overtake the aeronauts and stop their machines at the spot where the balloons were to descend before the aeronauts could alight, detach their cars from the gas bags, and carry them 35 feet. Five balloons and a score of autos competed, while hundreds followed in the wake in other traps. The autos succeeded in capturing the honors from the aeronauts. Conceit may be only exaggerated humility. Fashions for Mademoiselle Fashions for Mademoiselle Fashion Notes from Paris J ULY is, without doubt, one of the prettiest months of the year as far as the fashions for mademoiselle are concerned, since young people never look daintier or more charming than they do in the cool white cotton frocks and the quaint, old-world floral muslins. So many delightful linen fabrics are to be obtained this year, too, in pale delicate colorings, that there is an endless choice of pretty materials suitable for young girls' summer dresses. The dainty summer coat which is worn by the first figure of the two small girls who are sketched together is made in Irish linen in a very pale shade of lily-leaf green. This color is chosen rather than white, since it Nelly Cressl SUMMER MODES FOR LITTLE GIRLS does not soil so quickly, while it also washes exceedingly well, and does not fade as soon as the similarly pale shades of blue, pink and hellotrope, so often used for children's coats and frocks, although it must be confessed that they are all of them equally pretty and becoming. The neat little coat which we illustrate is quite simply trimmed with a number of rows of fine white stitching down the front and round the hem, as well as on the cuffs. The coat fastens over on one side, with large buttons of pale green bone, while for smart occasions it is provided with a collar of white Valenciennes lace and insertion, finished in front with a bow of sift white washing silk. The shady summer hat is made of the same green linen as the coat, and finely stitched. It is trimmed with a wide scarf of white soft silk ribbon, spotted with green, and tied in a very large double cow in front. The other little girl wears rather a smarter kind of costume, suitable for Sunday best, or even as a dress for a very youthful bridesmaid or train-bearer at a summer wedding. The frock is carried out entirely in white embroidered muslin, and made up over a slip of pale blue pongee silk. Two flouces of open-work embroidery form the skirt, while the embroidered sleeves are very prettily plaited on the shoulders, and again at the wrists. There is a deep cape collar of the same embroidery, with a wide band of embroidered muslin down the center of the bodice in front. The little chemisette is of white muslin, crossed by bands of insertion. The sash, which is tied very low in the waist, is of forget-me-not blue soft silk, while the quaint Dutch bonnet is also of white embroidered muslin, lined with pale blue silk. It is turned off the face in front, and finished on either side with clusters of forget-me-nots. The bonnet strings are of pale blue ribbon. Something very smart indeed for mademoiselle in the way of a picture frock is shown in our other illustration. Although the effect is so delightfully original, the style of the dress is really perfectly simple. The material should be either a soft floral muslin, or a delaine, patterned with tiny pink rosebuds. The skirt is made very full and plaited into the waist, where it is finished with a deep beit of soft leaf-green Louisine silk ribbon. Near the hem there is a very pretty trellis-work of the same kind of leaf-green ribbon, but in a narrower width, fastened just where the lines of Mary Coulter. OF BLUE AND WHITE LACE.

Miss Josephine Ponce de Leon, a lineal descendant of the discoverer of Florida, has entered a convent at Albany. Mrs. Amanda W.

Similar little roses are also used upon the fully-draped sleeves to catch up the fulness along the inner side of the arm, while they appear again upon the front of the bodice, where the trellis-work idea is repeated in a slightly different way. In this case, the leaf-green ribbon is folded and drawn round the shoulders fichu fashion, before being arranged in trellis form in front. Between the folds of ribbon on the bodice, the muslin is finely tucked, while the bodice is prettily finished with a high neck-band and a little chemisette of transparent ecru lace. In white or ecru spotted muslin, this would be a pretty frock made up over a color, while the same idea might be suitably carried out in figured not or embroidered muslin made up over a colored silk foundation. The hat which is sketched with this dainty muslin frock is of pale tan-colored Leghorn, with a wide band of black velvet ribbon, folded round the high crown, and clusters of full white ostrich plumes, arranged to droop over on to the brim in front. The craze for picture frocks and picture hats, so characteristic at the moment of the fashions for madame, will naturally find an echo in the modes for mademoiselle, and in the case of young girls this vogue is one which opens up various interesting possibilities. Numbers of old prints and engravings, as well as family portraits and the works by old masters can all be pressed into service, and will be found to offer innumerable suggestions for picture frocks for young people. Sweet simplicity is the keynote of the summer hats for mademoiselle, and seldom have the fashions been prettier in this respect than they are this year. For quite little girls, nothing is nicer than the demure and sen- AUSEY BROKA A PICTURE FROCK IN FLORAL MUSLIN. sibly shady mushroom shapes, made in a good strong straw of sunburnt coloring, and sufficiently substantial to afford a real protection to the head. Two different kinds of trimming are dividing the honors as far as the mushroom hats are concerned. The one consists of a very full ruche of soft silk ribbon frayed out at the edges and arranged quite formally, in double box-plaits all the way round the crown. The other is undoubtedly prettier, but rather more difficult to arrange, as it is composed of three or four choux of ribbon, silk or muslin, made in graduated sizes, and grouped round the front of the hat, while soft folds of the same material are draped round the back of the crown. ELLEN OSMONDE. taffeta mousseline can be admirably mixed with cambric and lace. The Henri II. sleeves are a feature of the best picturesque frocks of the moment. Diaphonous fabrics of all kinds must, of course, be used. But though we are in the midst of voluminous masses of trapery, beautiful lace and embroidered muslins, we daily hear rumors from Vienna that the plainest of tailor-made costumes will shortly be in vogue. The leading Americans have already appeared in coats made with small close-fitting sleeves, over the most severe-looking blouses, almost like bodices. The old habit-coat, with a small basque is, I hear, to be revived. It is, of course, only the first-class tailor and the woman possessed of a really good figure who should attempt these plain toilettes. But for the moment the muslins, taffetas, linions do soie, and such like ethereal fabrics hold their own, and the picturesque modes will remain with us until we adopt the cloths and serges of the autumn. Everything is boullonnnee, gauged and applique. Quaint cross-over pelerine effects are arrived at by the soft fichu or by piped plaitings. These are in keeping with the lines of the skirt, and the Henri II. sleeve. Curiously stiff are the old-fashioned kiltings, though the fabrics mostly used are soft, and there is generally a little chemisette of lace or embroidered muslin. The same applies to ruches, which are made in every variety. Muslin and Valenciennes can stand any amount of plaiting and rushing.

Bostonese Prophesy New School of Medicine Through Use of Harmony. A school of healing, in which the physician will combine with his knowledge of anatomy a thorough understanding of music, and the trained nurse will posses the ability to play a wide range of musical instruments, as well as administer medicines, is the prophecy of the large number of Bostonians who have taken up the "music cure" fad. In defense of their claims they insist that the theory has been given thorough proof already, and that in Europe it has been practiced successfully for several years. Recently Mrs. Mary L. Livermore asked Miss Christine Brown to play in the wards of the woman's hospital, in Boston, and the results were so pronounced that Miss Brown has become an enthusiast on the subject, and has repeated the experiments with marked success. The choice of musical compositions, the proper moment for applying them, and a correct appreciation of the patient's condition comprise the whole secret. For purely bodily ills, ailing ones are advised to try the effects of chords and airs until one is found that has greatest soothing effect. The choice of instruments is wide. No rules have yet been formed on this point, but the violin is thought to be a little more successful than others. A piano, however, is almost equally considered. The advocates of the cure use many familiar illustrations to defend the fad, among them the fact that mothers in all lands always have sung to their babies, and can soothe the most peevish little ones. DIES FROM SPIDER'S BITE. Knoxville (Tenn.) Woman's Body Swells to Twice Its Normal Size and Turns Nearly Black. Mrs. Laura Wilson, of Knoxville, Tenn., while dressing recently was bitten on the hip by a spider. She summoned medical aid, and, although antidotes and opiates were administered, her sufferings became intense. Physicians, baffled at the turn the case had taken, continued at her bedside all night. The patient's body began to swell, and when she died the following afternoon it had swollen to almost twice its normal size, and turned nearly black.
