The Gazette

2 Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, in second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. Cleveland, Saturday, July 30, 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. Madam Selika is still our "Queen of Song." Her quality of tone and execution is easily the best and she leads! Give the St. Louis "World's Fair" a "wide berth!" From a race viewpoint, Col. Jno. R. Marshall, of the Eighth Illinois regiment, gave it a "body blow" which it seems our brilliant and popular president clinched. More power to such as Roosevelt and Marshall. As we predicted and tried to show in previous issues of The Gazette, the fair is proving a colossal financial failure. Let us help on this good work by remaining away from it, and thus not only put the seal of our condemnation upon its management for the miserable treatment accorded Afro-American attendants upon the fair, but also teach it and all such prejudiced persons and organizations, south and north, a much needed and salutary lesson. Read our St. Louis letter elsewhere in this paper. The intelligent Negro does not want social equality and does not seek it.— Newport News (Va.) Star. The intelligent northern Afro-American certainly does want, seek and enjoy just that very thing whenever it is equally desired by his equals or superiors among the other classes of composite "Anglo-Saxons" resident here in northern United States. So, confrere, please do not be so general and sweeping in your comment of the kind. It may "fit" the intelligent southern Afro-American but certainly does not his intelligent northern brother. Many of us have been used to "social equality" almost since birth and do not propose to attempt to make any change in existing conditions; nor to send forth a false denial of their existence; nor to even say we do not want, seek and need all things necessary to a full and steady progressive American growth, whether they be educational, financial, religious or social. THE FOLLY OF SOUTHERN NON- SENSE. The unthinking and illiterate element of the south contend that there is soon to be a war of races, that war is inevitable and that it is the only way to the solution of the "Negro problem." War may be the thought of those who look not beyond the vale. But there is a vein of intelligence that awakens a more sober thoughtfulness on the part of the ruling powers, and men of the south have learned that it is no child's play to involve the nation again into another civil conflict. Every issue involves a right and a wrong side, and it rests with the powers of government and the administration in authority, to determine whether a guerilla war or any other kind shall be waged regardless of the rights of citizens. When the party in power, the president of the United States and the nation's congress declare that the laws must be enforced and that citizens irrespective of race must be protected, it means that the army and navy shall have a hand in maintaining the honor and majesty of free government. The issue will not then involve the right of black men to enjoy liberty, but it will be whether free government shall survive or not. There is a high moral religious sentiment that today permeates the heart and soul of the American nation and it is that sentiment that shall be the guiding power and shall determine the justice of a righteous cause. If it were human slavery which brought on the war between the states, then it will be the outgrowth of that same monster which shall call the people to arms to repel the invasion of the rights of free government among the people. Brave and noble men will rally again to maintain and defend the claims of popular government. The Declaration of Independence, the preamble of our national constitution and its immutable amendments cemented in the blood of martyred millions, attest the spirit and devotion of Christian America to the principles of justice and liberty. Called to confront conditions, which have been not a little embarrassing to national existence, yet Americans will in the spirit of true patriotism make the best of them. Liberty and justice must reign and the government shall survive. "The land of the free and the home of the brave" is yet to become the asylum for the oppressed of every nation and tongue. Now, let the southern mind rave and bad men thirst for the blood of the brother in each, yet it will be but as an idle endeavor to dethrone Jehovah him self. "For right is right, Since God is God, And right the day must win. To doubt would be disloyalty, To falter would be sin." A great people are never undecided when engaged in humanity's cause and never in all the history of the world has the righteousness of human government been more clearly demonstrated. Righteousness exalteth a people, but the nation that forgets God must go down. Christian America stands pledged to her obligations and can not recede from them. It is wrong to oppress and wage war against Afro-Americans in their own country and the masses of the people will never consent to a deed, which would be nothing less than a murderous assault. It is possible that the sceptre, of power shall be snatched from our government, but it is beyond the ken of reason to believe that any people can fall in the vindication of right principles. Nations oftimes go to war with no certainty of a successful triumph. They apply their knowledge and strength to consummate great ends, knowing that their cause is unjust. But in the vast system of evolving means and ends, the hand of a predestinating God directs all forces, and we do well when God lends his sanction; for without that guiding hand regulating human destiny, the boast of men must fail as surely as did Pharaoh's host when crossing the Red Sea. There is a growing religious sentiment in this country, which may some day aspire to direct the affairs of government. Then it may be that Americans shall be proportionately divided against each other. It will be a war for supremacy. But when the great principles of liberty and justice are to be assailed through the spirit of prejudice, wickedness and caste, the majority of Americans together with the Christian world will revolt in holy horror against one of the worst crimes that ever disgraced humanity. WHERE, OH! WHERE WERE THEY? The Conservator's Editor Asks for Messrs Cooper, of Washington, D. C., and Knox, of Indianapolis, Ind. At every public gathering certain familiar figures are looked for—not always because they add anything to the dignity or intelligence of such gatherings, but because, like flies flocking to a honey jar, these individuals hasten to place themselves in public notice. They come swarming up to conventions like certain insects to a public electric light, having no power to do anything to increase the light whose glare makes their insignificance all the more noticeable. We have looked in vain for the chiefs of these hangers-on. In every crowd we have watched for their hungry, apologetic faces—in order that we might avoid them. Now the burning question is, Why didn't they come to Chicago? Where, oh, where were they? Where were Ed. E. Cooper, of Washington, and George L. Knox, of Indiana? For many years this same Cooper and this same Knox have imagined that without their presence no republican candidate for the presidency could be nominated. Why did Cooper and Knox fail to put themselves on exhibition in their usual breezy style? Many persons were astounded at their absence and sat breathlessly asking each other—can a president be nominated? By some it was feared that the republican national convention had met in vain. But the sun did move, the world went on and it was conclusively proved—wonderful to say—that a president could be nominated without Cooper or Knox. But where were they? Knox probably did not like the convention because it turned down the lily whites. No Negro, you know, can shave in Knox's barber shop. Then possibly several persons—chief among whom was a gentlemen who wields a Broad Ax—were speaking softly and carrying big sticks for this brace of editors. We can imagine Cooper and Knox lingering in outer darkness and casting longing glances toward joyous Chicago.—Chicago Conservator. OUR WOMEN STRIKE BACK! The St. Louis Alleged "World's Fair" Receives the Costly Blow—Good! for Our Women. St. Louis, Mo.-At the opening of the National Association of Afro-American Women which recently met here, Mrs. Booker T. Washington created a sensation by opposing the proposition to participate in the "Colored" Women's Day exercises at the World's Fair. Mrs. Washington was vehement in her stand, maintaining that the exposition directors had discriminated against our women in the matter of securing employment on the grounds and against the race in general. In support of her position she introduced a resolution to abandon the plan of holding a session on the fair grounds. The St. Louis delegates tried hard to stem the tide of opposition, but the resolution was adopted by a large majority. In support of Mrs. Washington's stand Miss Hallie Q. Brown reported that she had sought employment on The Pike Monday as a test of the report that our women were not wanted there, and had been refused. The following officers were elected: President, Mrs. J. Silome Yates, Kansas City; vice president, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Tuskegee, Ala.; corresponding secretary, Mrs. Cornelia Bowen, Waugh, Ala.; recording secretaries, Miss E. C. Carter, New Bedford, Mass.; Mrs. Mary E. Stewart, Louisville, Ky., and Miss Josephene H. Smith, South Atlanta, Ga.; treasurer, Mrs. Libbie C. Anthony, Jefferson City, Mo. The next convention will meet in Detroit the second week in July, 1906. J. R. Cox's Ordination. Chicago, Ill.-The ordination of Julius R. Cox, the first Afro-American licentiate to be ordained with Episcopal orders in the state, took place at St. Paul's church recently. Mr. Cox, who is employed in the mall service in the city, passed the required examination with credit, and received deacon's orders. He has been active as a lay reader of the Phillips' mission, since its organization. He will continue his studies until he shall receive clergyman's orders.

Alex Martin's friends attempt to justify his bolt of McKinley and support of Bryan, as well as his candidacy for a nomination for the legislature on the democratic ticket a couple or so years ago. It would look so much better if choir members would get in their places on time. At one of our churches last Sunday evening only two members of the choir were in their seats.

Do not fail 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. The members of Antioch Baptist church are rejoicing. For a long time they have been planning to build a church, but the funds were lacking. Now John D. Rockefeller has come forward and, offered the church $6,000 provided it can raise $6,000 more by August, 1905. So confident do the members feel that they can raise the required sum that they will begin the building of the church next month. This has been a large week for local True Reformers, as Rev. W. L. Taylor, G. W. M., and Chief Rev. W. L. Anderson were in the city.

Nickerson, and the reception that follows from 6 to 8 p. m., on August 3, at the family residence, No. 2415 Canal street.

Miss Carson as "Patty Jones," will please you at Woodliff hall Wednesday evening. See advertisement elsewhere in this paper. The Indianapolis (Ind.) Freeman of July 9, 1904, contains a portrait and article headed "Stop Thief" relative to "Tony Langston, alias Louis Levi, who recently skipped with the funds of the James L. Goodall Republican association of Philadelphia, Pa." The article also says: "Louis Levi, as he is known in Philadelphia, but in the west as Tony Langston, came here (Philadelphia) about two years ago from Detroit, Mich," etc., etc. He was in Cleveland recently and may be yet for all The Gazette knows. Ask Blue, Fleming and the office boy ("devil") It is said he was in their "employ" recently. Martin was for Bryan and Against McKinley. Alexander H. Martin, a candidate for the republican nomination for councilman-at-large, was a staunch Bryan man and against McKinley in 1900, and was a candidate for the democratic nomination for the legislature the following year with the endorsement of the First Johnson club. Aleck's friends, the "Grafters," admit and try to justify the above. Wouldn't it be a good idea to wait and see whether he (Martin) will have the courage, stability and good sense to vote for Roosevelt and Fairbanks in November, before urging him upon the republicans of this city or county for a nomination of any kind. We are not asking this question of the few individuals who constitute the so-called "Twelfth Ward Republican club," better known as the "Grafters," because the majority of them have been on both sides of the political fence so often in recent years that they would not make proper persons for such reference. Wants to Know Her Father's Whereabouts. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—I am desirous of obtaining information as to the whereabouts of my father, Derusia Ackley, commonly called "Dute", whom I have not seen since childhood. I heard that he was in Cleveland and had lost all effects from a fire about a year ago. Knowing your newsy paper catches the eye of many persons, I thought an advertisement to that effect might reach him. Mrs. Ida A. Thomas, 2501 Wabash avenue, Chicago, Ill. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 30, 1904. MADAME MARIE SELIKA. The one thing established beyond all question or doubt at the recital at St. John's church last week Wednesday evening, was the fact that Madam Selika is still our greatest singer. Her rendition of classical selections by Donizette, Eckart, Spaulding and Taylor as well as that of one or more encore selections to each of her solo numbers, was simply wonderful. She has a dramatic soprano voice of great power as well as of exceptional sweetness—a combination seldom possessed by the greatest singers of any class of people. Her training at home and abroad, prin- Madam Marie Selika. cipally in Berlin, Germany, as well as her experience on the concert stage, has given her a command of her voice which permits of execution, far superior to that of the ordinary fine concert singer of any class. Hundreds of the Madam's friends in this city, who gathered to hear her sing and do her honor, were more than delighted at the close of the recital, and rushed forward to shower their praises and congratulations upon the prima donna, who is as modest as she is a great, singer. The Gazette takes pleasure in commending her to all who love to hear and can appreciate the best singing. Madam Marie Selika is our "Queen of Song."

Justice Brewer is from Kansas, and his state is justifiably proud of him, says the Kansas City Journal. Soon after his elevation to the supreme bench a cigar manufacturer in Topeka dedicated a ten-cent "domestic" cigar to the jurist, named it "Our Justice," and on the cover of each box pasted a portrait of Mr. Brewer. A few years ago the justice was in Topeka on a business trip. The hotel clerk, recognized him, and the negro bell boy, although he had no idea who the newcomer was, knew from the way he was ordered about that the patron was of some consequence. Going up in the elevator the negro stared constantly at the tall, dignified man. Suddenly the black face was wreathed in smiles, and the boy said: "Scuse me, boss, but ain't you de gemmen dat invented dem 'Ouah Justice' cigars?" This reminds one of the man who was recalling famous persons who "parted their names in the middle." names in the middle. "And then," he said, "there is 'E Pluribus Unum', the man that makes the bass drums." SCOLDING SET TO MUSIC. In one of the big One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street beer gardens a brass hand was playing what purported to be a Wagnerian selection with positively deafening effect, relates the New York Times. The good-natured people around the tables had wisely abandoned all effort at conversation. Not so with one woman, a shrewish-looking person, who was leaning over a table shaking her finger at her nusband and doing her best to make him hear the abuse that she was evidently hurling at him. Suddenly, with one grand blare, the music stopped, and the woman's voice, pitched in a veritable scream, was heard: "You bald-headed, sour-faced idiot, I'll—" Checked by her own strident tones she looked about her in consternation. Not so the husband. He was calloused to abuse. Picking up his stein he looked at his wife and growled: "Shut up till the band starts again." Proved Beyond a Doubt. Middlesex, N. Y., July 25.—(Special)—That Rheumatism can be cured has been proved beyond a doubt by Mrs. Betsey A. Clawson, well known here. That Mrs. Clawson had Rheumatism and had it bad all her acquaintances know. They also know she is now cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it. Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her cure as follows: "I was an invalid for most five years caused by Inflammatory Rheumatism, helpless two-thirds of the time. The first year I could not do as much as a baby could do; then I rallied a little bit and then a relapse. Then a year ago the gout set in my hands and feet. I suffered untold agony and in August, 1903, when my husband died I could not ride to the grave. "I only took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in two weeks I could wait on myself and saw my own wood. I dug my own potatoes and gathered my own garden last fall. Dodd's Kidney. Pills cured." Rheumatism is caused by uric acid in the blood. Dodd's Kidney Pills put the Kidneys in shape to take all the uric acid out of the blood. They Meet "Who are you?" demanded the boll weevil.

Miss Nellie Holmes, treasurer of the Young Woman's Temperance Association of Buffalo, N.Y., strongly advises all suffering women to rely, as she did, upon Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—Your medicine is indeed an ideal woman's medicine, and by far the best I know to restore lost health and strength. I suffered misery for several years, being troubled with menorrhagia. My back ached, I had bearing-down pains and frequent headaches. I would often wake from restful sleep, and in such pain that I suffered for hours before I could go to sleep again. I dreaded the long nights as much as the weary days. I consulted two different physicians, hoping to get relief but finding that their medicine did not seem to cure me. I tried your Vegetable Compound on the recommendation of a friend from the East who was visiting me. "I am glad that I followed her advice, for every ache and pain is gone and not only this, but my general health is much improved. I have a fine appetite and have gained in flesh. My earnest advice to suffering women is to put aside all other medicines and to take Lydia E. Pinkham's vegetable Compound" — MISS NELLIE HOLMES, 54c No. Division St., Buffalo, N.Y. — should forget if original of above letter provinces cannot be produced.

Things have changed considerably since ten years ago, when the only correct dress for the water was a neat, plain serge skirt and blouse, and the hard sailor hat. Then the cult of the tailor-made girl, Of course, the leading dressmakers over here are chiefly devoting their attention to smart garments for Homburg, Aix and the continent in general. It is of Homburg gowns I would tell you this week, for I have seen some destined for leading foreigners, chiefly Americans. White, only sharings its popularity with palest Malmaison pink, may be said to constitute the best frocks. Finest white embroidered muslins flounced and trimmed with insertions and edgings of old-world Valenciennes lace, are the favorite models for the continent, varied according to the fancy of the wearer by a narrow band, a high sash, a falling pelerine from an emplement of transparent lace, etc. Some of these muslin frocks are made with a high skirt and a lace bolero. Then I like deep yoke pieces fastening up the back with a kind of fichu-like pelerine, the skirt flounced and inserted to the waist and worn with a deep, pointed, colored Marie Antolinette band, finished with tiny rosettes down the front. The charms of such a really old-fashioned muslin frock are many. It can be carried out, too, in pink with cream lace, and is very effective also in black painted muslin or flowered gauze. Painted, striped, plain, check and flowered gauzes seem to be revived for the continental season, and in dark shades such frocks can be very useful. Then a great deal of Tussore silk is being made up, with a simple, gauged skirt and bodice, and an introduction of pale blue or oriental embroidery, and worn with a big straw hat, trimmed with poppies and cornflowers. Some of the embroidered silk linens will be simply made up with cream embroideries and coarse yak lace; these make very charming and useful morning and afternoon toilettes. To keep black stockings a good color, wash them in warm suds and add a tablespoonful of vinegar to the rinsing water. Try using soapy water for making starch. It is said that the linen will be given a gloss by this means, and that the irons will not stick. When silver spoons become discolored from eggs, scour them with fine table salt. This will remove the discoloration, which is caused by the sulphur in the egg, and not scratch or wear the silver. THE DECISION. pleadings are so drafted and our issues so made up as to compel the court of last resort to define our status by direct decision. While your question does not require it, permit me to suggest further, that in the light of recent utterances, by committees on privileges and elections in the house of representatives of the United States, our people might do much valuable missionary work in the future by selecting known friends for whom their ballots are to be cast. A party name has no longer a meaning in the light of recent events, except one accompanied by overt acts. The time seems to be ripe when we should use politics like our neighbors, as a means to an end. Yours very truly, GEO. H. WHITE. Mr. H. T. Kealing, Philadelphia, Pa. My Dear Sir:—You ask me to give my views upon the following question: "Since the adverse decision of the United States supreme court in the Alabama disfranchisement case, should the Negro still content for the franchise or demand reduction of representation in the south instead?" In my opinion the Negro should insist upon the fundamental rights that pertain to citizenship. He should content for civil and political equality and by this I mean he should claim and be accorded the same rights as are granted to other citizens circumstanced as he is. Equality before the law means equal treatment under similar conditions. I believe in an educational standard for the ballot where there is a large percentage of illiterate population, but the standard ought to be impartially applied to white and black alike. It is much better for the colored man that a fair literary qualification be imposed upon the ballot. It will give him something to work for and when he secures the right to vote it will be a mark of honor and will mean something to him. The ballot in the hands of an ignorant person is of no benefit whatever. It is a two-edged sword and he is as liable to use it to his detriment as to his advantage. My idea is that there should be but one standard of citizenship and that the right to vote should be predicated upon character and intelligence and not upon the accident of race or color. An educational law will necessarily disfranchise a large number of citizens in the southern states and, under the fourteenth amendment to the federal constitution, the representation of those states should be reduced proportionately. The purpose of this constitutional provision is not to inflict a penalty upon a state that seeks properly to elevate the standard of its electorate, but to prompt all of the states to educate their citizens and thus qualify them for the ballot. An increase in the voting population of a state among its male inhabitants over twenty-one years of age, according to the constitutional policy, means an increase in representation and a larger share of federal political power. I, therefore, believe that colored men who are fitted for suffrage ought to insist upon it and that the constitutional provision respecting representation should be enforced as a promoter to states to educate generally in order that the standard of intelligence may be promoted throughout the country generally. Very truly yours, E. D. CRUMPACKER. A Record of Disasters. Washington, July 28.—According to the accident bulletin issued yesterday by the inter-state commerce commission there were 79 passengers and 840 employes of railroads killed and 1,590 passengers and 10,854 employes injured in accidents on railroads in the United States during the quarter ended March 31, 1904. This is a decrease of eight killed over the corresponding quarter last year. The amount of damage to railway property caused by accident during the quarter was $2.-256,447.

(366) MODES OF LATE SUMMER THE TOILETTES OF PARIS I T SEEMS to me that the season is prolonged every year, and now there are many people who do not think of leaving town before August. The summer is certainly later than it used to be, and it is not unusual for our light, thin frocks to be in request as late as September. Some of the darker flannels in stripes and spots are very attractive and suitable for neat costumes for the woman who is afraid of looking stout in the blouse-like garment. Dark blue and white, black and white, and red and white are charming on the water. The rage this year is for bright-colored linens. We have had such prettily embroidered linen blouses that many of us find it advisable to invest in a plain linen skirt or two to go with them, because here, as elsewhere, if we want to look our smartest, the skirt and blouse should be of the same color. Red is essentially a water shade and nothing looks better against the background of gray and green. There is a linen in a new dark shade of red which is very effective made up as a skirt and bolero, worn with a white muslin sun hat and blouse, and a white washing-leather belt and gloves. Some women look their best in the duck's-egg shade, which is extremely effective and pretty, whereas French women seem to prefer white linne of a coarse description, almost resembling a holland, trimmed with coarse embroidery to correspond; this is one of the most effective models for the seaside. Then there is a coarse silky linen which is most attractive when mixed with Irish crochet or torchon lace. The finer makes of linen are produced in a variety of beautiful shadings, and are usually made up very simply with a stitched or strapped skirt and blouse. For the river and country one must not forget the charms of brown holland—real, old-fashioned brown holland, which is so effective when embroidered in red or white.

But ARIS.—The hot weather makes us very loth to think about the modes of the future, although from the ateliers of Vienna new ideas are emanating. But so exquisite are the summer muslins, chiffons and laces, that for the moment we are content with their charms. GLEANED FOR HOUSEWIVES so essentially Saxon, was in the ascendant; now we have changed all that, and have become more cosmopolitan in our taste. There are few entertainments given where the orthodox blue serge is altogether absent. To-day this can be the very smartest of garments, for our tailors are copying the Viennese style with the excellence of American workmanship. Some of the best serges of the moment are heavily braided with flat silk braids and ornamented with tiny gold or silver wrought buttons. Of course, nothing looks more charming than the white serge frock. Smart and suitable tailor-made wraps are a great consideration. Linen is an excellent substitute for the Tussore dust wrap. It looks very smart in pretty shades, and, without being too heavy, has a certain amount of weight. Some of the smartest wraps of the season are in serge, cloth and linen. The latter in pale blue, decorated with straps, lined with thin silk and showing a collar and revers of MG. A DAINTY CHEMISE. handsome embroidery, is very effective. I have seen a most delightful white linen wrap, the front and collar of which are trimmed with a curious linen embroidery of a coarse make, taking in several shades of dull red and black. This is lined with a white corded silk; and is further decorated with some beautiful oxidized buttons. There is a new make of coarse yak lace, which forms a delightful applique trimming, and is quite in keeping with this kind of smart tailor-built garment. Lovely specimens of the kimono are made of thick white satin, trimmed with gold and silver galon; satin cut in this rather severe style falls into delightful folds by its own weight, and a soft effect is obtained by linings of chiffon and lace. A girl friend asked me questions regarding trousseau lingerie the other day, and I will tell you something of what I told her. The girl who is to be married of course wants everything of the very nicest, and to secure this desired effect she should have her lingerie made of nainsook. Nothing else is so good, nor will anything else wash or wear so well. In the same connection I ran across a sketch of what I consider a charming nainsook chemise suitable for evening wear. It is made with little turn-out points of lace insertion and embroidery, edged with frills of lace. Straps of soft silk ribbon pass over the shoulders, and are fastened back and front with ribbon rosettes. ELLEN OSMONDE. There is much distinction about the toilette de reception over here; for one thing they are nearly all made with elbow sleeves, and the high collar is less en evidence, the throat being just visible in many cases. I have noticed some lovely lace frocks, both in fine and coarse makes. These are generally made very plainly, softened with mousseline de sole insertions. Apricot and deep cream shades are de rigueur over foundations BARRIE A GOWN OF MOUSSELINE DE SOIE.

These make charming demitoilettes, which are so necessary on the continent, where, except for special occasions, evening dress is practically not worn at all. Although fashion decrees that the blouse should more or less correspond with the skirt, we have a variety of pretty, light, gauzy net lace blouses to wear with our taffeta skirts. For hotel wear we simply cannot exist without a good supply of blouses of this kind. ANNETTE GIRVY. Benzine and French chalk will remove grease from matting.

An interesting point of law was determined by the Massachusetts supreme court recently when it held that the Boston Elevated Railway company was liable for an attack of appendicitis which James J. Sullivan suffered two years and three months after an injury he sustained by reason of the negligence of the road. The company had strenuously urged that the attack of appendicitis was too remote, and that the accident was not the proximate cause of it. It contended further, that damages by reason of that contention could not be recovered against the road. The accident happened August 8, 1900, in Main street, Charlestown, as a result of a car running into a brewery wagon which Sullivan was driving. With Sullivan was John J. Knox, who also was injured. Sullivan had been in good health up to the time of the accident, and was operated on for appendicitis in November, 1902. The operating surgeon testified that the accident was a sufficient cause for the appendicitis. Sullivan received a verdict of $4,000, but subsequently agreed to abate $1,000 from it. Knox was awarded $2,250. Boy's Peculiar Injuries Lee Haussmann, the four-year-old son of Charles Haussmann, of Pottsville, Pa., had his collar-bone broken and shoulder dislocated while being lifted on a trolley car by the conductor.

I now feel as well as I ever did in all my life, and all thanks is due to your excellent Peruna."---Bess F. Healy. The symptoms of summer catarrh are quite unlike in different cases, but the most common ones are general lassitude, played-out, tired-out, used-up, run-down feelings, combined with more or less heavy, stupid, listless, mental condition. Relish for food and the ability to digest food seems to be lost. Skin eruptions, sallow complexion, biliousness, coated tongue, fitful, irregular sleep, help to complete the picture which is so common at this season. Peruna so exactly meets all these conditions that the demand is so great for this remedy at this season of the year that it is nearly impossible to supply it. Pe-ru-naContainsNoNarcotics. One reason why Peruna has found permanent use in so many homes is that it contains no narcotics of any kind. Peruna is perfectly harmless. It can be used any length of time without acquiring the drug habit. Thousands of women suffer from pelvic catarrh and catarrhal nervousness and don't know it. If you feel fagged out, begin at once taking Dr. Hartman's Peruna. It will relieve your catarrhal affliction and all your organs will be restored to health.

This year it will be held in Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada), and with the material assistance given it by the Dominion Government, it will be one of the most successful ever held. Besides the number of special attractions that will be offered, there will be brought together an exhibit of the Agricultural and Industrial resources of Canada such as is rarely attempted by any country. Visitors will be there in large numbers from the United States, owing to the low rates offered by railways, connecting with the Canadian roads. It is expected that Hon. Clifford Sefton, Minister of the Interior, will be there on the opening day to declare the exhibition open. A splendid opportunity will be afforded by this exhibition to meet friends. Hotel accommodations will be quite ample. Dog in Well a Week. A valuable pointer dog belonging to John Shipp, of Lower Alloway Creek, N.
