All communications should be addressed: EARRY C. SMITH. Cleveland, Saturday, Nov. 12, 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. Wonder if the south really appreciates the magnificent Roosevelt republican victory? Roosevelt's victory came near being unanimous didn't it? Simply wonderfull! Carry the news to Tillman, Vardaman, Williams, Graves, Hobson and the rest of "de gang." Tuesday's grand victory means so much to the Afro-American—more to him than any other class of citizens of the country. Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, of Ohio, was a tower of strength to the President wherever he went throughout the north in the campaign just closed. He will be the next president. The "door of hope" was not closed last Tuesday. President Roosevelt opened it and the people have decided that he was right in that and other important matters, and have notified him and the world that four years more of manliness, honesty and faithfulness are desired. More power to him! The death of Frederick J. Loudin removes a positive race factor at a time when it seems we can ill afford to sustain such a loss. He was a good man, modest, unassuming, talented, forceful, and able; a man who had a wonderful career. His work in many countries, with his great singers, unquestionably did the race an infinite amount of good, as well as benefiting him financially and in other ways. As a friend Mr. Loudin was frank, genial, generous, and whole-souled. One knew him well only to value, and highly too, an exceptional friend. We doubt that there lives today a member of the race who can number in many countries of the world anywhere near half the warm friends and admirers that the deceased has left. His excellent wife, sister and niece have our heartfelt sympathy in their great bereavement. An article from an exchange written undoubtedly by a northerner, who has lived south for awhile, contains views quite unjust and detrimental to Afro-Americans. It will be well for this learned and eminent northerner to bear in mind or to be informed that some of the most accomplished, best educated and deserving citizens in the entire United States are found among our people. If this visitor to the south has not yet learned that among this people he finds not only his equals but his superiors, then it is conclusive that in making his observations he has used only his eyes and his mouth with little or no exercise of his mind. The opinion, however, obtains with him regardless of the equity and justice due the Afro-American as a man and a moral being, that he has comparatively few rights that first-class white men are bound to respect. But white men of the south, educated Christian white men, who know their own rights, are in duty bound to know not only the rights of Afro-Americans, but to accord them. The intelligent man be he of whatever race, is not honest, is not magnanimous who understands the claims of humanity and grudgingly denies them. Our "well-meaning" northern friend went south a kindly disposed gentleman toward the poor, illiterate, struggling Negro. He had occasion to see for himself and what did he see? Ah! he saw poor despised black men, struggling in rags against poverty. He saw the untutored living in penury and want, living upon starvation wages. He saw them buffeted and scourged, bruised and mangled without the protection of the law. He saw them in merciless toll upon the rock pile and in the chain gang dragging out a wretched existence. Reduced to helplessness and want, the miserable creature of humanity hears no word of pity for him, no plea for mercy and compassion from some brave Christian heart to rescue and to save; but he finds himself scorned and despised as a dog and a brute by some little soul, narrow-minded white man from the north, who on his return makes the announcement: "If you still think the southern people are wrong in their prejudices and denunciation of the THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1904. Negro, you will say so in a different tone." Prejudiced and uncultured in morals and religion, and quite ignorant in the wisdom and teachings of the word of God, such northern friends are always likely to injure the cause of truth and do the Afro-American an injury equally as great as that inflicted at the hand of the southern "master." What did our northern white friend do on his arrival south? He saw the poor Negro in his humiliation engaged in menial service. He heard the abuse heaped upon him and at once our northern friend learned to hate and despise this child of servitude because of his condition. We don't wonder at such announcements when half-backs and copperheads journey through the south. But let the broad-minded, high-minded and God-fearing go south—they open their minds to the light of truth and our cause is safe. A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH. What else was to be expected? The people fully realized the gravity of the issue before them and they could not afford to sacrifice the vast interests of a great and growing republic only to gratify the whim of an ambitious and Negro-hating party. A thousand spurious issues were sprung and tested, but they were like the vision of a nightmare. The truth is that the democratic party occupies a position that is too untenable, and it is truly a matter of surprise that this great and all-knowing party has not yet acquired common reason enough to discover the painful error of its ways. It has never yet made an honorable issue before the people. Its constant appeal has been one of passion and prejudice, for dishonorable supremacy and for the oppression of the poor. What else was to be expected but that the old party doomed and eternally cursed should go down to inglorious defeat? The common sense of the masses could never allow a party to ride into power regardless of the rights and interests of the people, regardless of the claims of the government and the demands of public duty. Messrs. Parker, Bryan and Company need to be heartily ashamed of themselves. They have attempted on more than one occasion to hoodwink the people by crying wolf when there was no wolf. Like the ass clothed in the skin of the lion, they have prowled up and down the public highway with the vain hope of scaring intelligent voters into democratic ranks. But the people are too wise and are fully conscious that to follow in the lead of these democratic bosses would mean the betrayal of the cause of liberty and free government. The days of democracy on the American continent are ended, and it may as well go into camp and hang itself on a hook. The people are too well informed and are too much concerned about business and honor to be hoodooed by a party that believes in "rabbit feet" and "working roots." It has tried all the baser methods and arts of intrigue in order to win. Its only hobby has been one eternal abuse of the Negro, and the people have become so tired, so bored, and disgusted, with their empty jargon about nothing, that they have concluded to let the democratic candidates find lodging in the woods, where they belong rather than at the nation's capital. The republican party has won its trophies upon pure business and statesmanlike principles, while democracy depended upon whining and treachery, upon falsehood and slander and base ribaldry against the Afro-American. It has resorted to the basest hypocracy; to unmatched perfidy in order to beguile the people, but the trick did not work. But a glorious victory has come to the people. The old ship of state still rides the wave in defiance of the maddened storm. It has landed the richest cargo, yet known to a proud and progressive race. Ride on, O ship of state, ride on! and let the loyal sons of America lift their hats in universal rejoicing that the government of the fathers still retains its majesty and power, its pledges and its obligations, to defend the composite rights and liberties of the people. "Spirit of liberty, on! Pause not in thy flight Till every cause is won, Till every land is bright." A Raid on Counterfeiters. Cleveland, Nov. 8.—With a raid into the Hungarian settlement in the South End, and the arrest, at the point of revolvers, of three men, United States secret service officers believe they have broken up a gang of alleged counterfeiters. Hungarians going home have been exchanging their American cash for Hungarian money, and when they would try to pass the latter in Hungary, invariably they were arrested. Most of those arrested came from Cleveland, and the bills invariably were of the denomination of 20 kronen, or about $5. By international agreement, counterfeiting foreign money is as much a crime as counterfeiting Uncle Sam's, so secret service officers went to work. A. Swindler Goes to the Pen. Sidney, O., Nov. 5.—Marcellus R. Gleason was taken to the Ohio penitentiary this week to serve three years for obtaining money under false pretenses. He was recently arrested in Tazewell, Tenn., and brought here. When arraigned he pleaded guilty. Gleason represented himself as a New York attorney working in the interest of the Dye estate and would have the alleged heirs retain him as their attorney. He secured $700 from John N. Woodruff and $65 from Dr. Wise and then skipped out. The officials have been hunting him for two years.

Roosevelt and Fairbanks Have Swept the Country A Republican Majority in the Next Congress Is Assured. New York, Nov. 10.—With the election returns still incomplete, the plurality of President Roosevelt in the nation, according to all indications, will exceed 1,500,000—the greatest plurality ever given an American candidate. The nearest approach to this vote was in 1896, when McKinley received a plurality approximating 850,000, and in 1872, when Grant received 762,991 plurality. The "solid south" was broken by the probable defection of Missouri—this section of the country usually having 13 states in the democratic column. The figures now show but 12 states with 133 votes for Judge Parker. President Roosevelt carried all the northern states—swept them in fact—and has 343 electoral votes. The sentiment which swept the republican candidates into office will be reflected in the next house of representatives. The republicans have elected 233 representatives and the democrats 141, the 12 remaining districts yet to be heard from being now equally divided between the two parties. The republican majority in the next house will therefore be at least 92. M. COLORADO. Denver, Nov. 10.—Roosevelt's plurality in Colorado has been increased by later returns and may run above 15,000. Republicans and democrats claim the election of governor and congressman at large and the republicans threaten to contest the state election on the grounds of alleged frauds in Denver. On the face of nearly complete returns Adams, dem., has carried Denver county by 4,500 plurality and he appears to have a safe lead over Peabody without this county. According to the returns in the Times, Adams' plurality in the state is a little over 10,000. The Times concedes that the result is in doubt as other state officers, but claims the legislature to be democratic in both branches. The Post says: "Late returns indicate clearly that the republican ticket in Colorado—national, state and county—has been elected by pluralities ranging from 2,000 to 10,000. A conservative estimate places Gov. Peabody's plurality at 5,000. He will carry Denver by from 1,500 to 2,000." WISCONSIN. Milwaukee, Nov. 10.—The result of the election in Wisconsin shows that Roosevelt ran ahead of every ticket and carried the state by a plurality estimated at between 60,000 and 75,000; that Gov. La Follette is reelected by a plurality of about 50,000, and that the congressional complexion remains unchanged from two years ago. The legislature which is to elect a United States senator to succeed Joseph V. Quarles is largely republican. One of the surprises in the election was the big increase in the vote of the social democratic party. Four years ago that party polled 4,458 votes in Milwaukee county, two years ago 10,704, and in this election 18,120. The social democrats elected four assemblymen and one senator to the legislature. In the legislature Chairman Connor, of the La Follette state central committee, claims there will be 80 members pledged to carry out the measures advocated by Gov. La Follette. NEW YORK. New York, Nov. 10.—The latest returns from New York state only tend to confirm the earlier statements of the result, showing that Mr. Roosevelt's plurality is 174,691, while Mr. Higgins' majority for governor is 76,-822. Not only was there an almost phenomenal republican victory up the state, but in the city of New York the democratic plurality was largely reduced. The legislature is republican by an increased majority in both branches. Unofficial figures indicate that they have elected 102 of the 150 members of the assembly and that they will have 35 of the 50 state senators. PENNSYLVANIA. Philadelphia, Nov. 10.—Roosevelt's majority in this state will reach the unprecedented figure of 485,000 and the republicans have probably elected 31 of the 32 congressmen. The only democratic congressman who now appears sure of election is Kline in the Thirteenth district. In the Sixteenth district, now represented by Congressman Dickerman, the fight is very close between Samuel (rep.) and Davis (dem.), with latest returns indicating that the former has been elected. The republicans will have a majority in the legislature on joint ballot of about 225. RHODE ISLAND. Providence, Nov. 10.—It was not until yesterday that a republican victory for governor was assured. Utter, rep., defeated Garvin, dem., by 594 plurality. Roosevelt carried the state by about 16,000. The republicans also elected the two congressmen, their state ticket and obtained an increased majority in the legislature, which insures the re-election of United States Senator Aldrich. OHIO. Columbus, Nov. 10.—Republican Chairman Dick claims a republican majority in the state in excess of 180,000. Dick says that the republicans carried 70 of the 88 counties, and all of the congressional districts save the Fourth, where Democratic State Chairman Garber was the democratic candidate. Garber is conceded a majority of 1,500. Secretary Laylin has received unofficial reports from about half of the counties of the state, but it will probably be two weeks before the state count is complete. It is believed the total vote in the state will exceed that of the election of 1900, when the total was 1,040,073. Cincinnati, Nov. 10.—Complete returns in Cincinnati give Roosevelt 53,618, Parker 18,814; Roosevelt's plurality 34,804. Roosevelt's majority over all candidates in Hamilton county, including Cincinnati, is 32,206. Roosevelt's plurality over Parker in Hamilton county is 40,024. Cleveland, Nov. 10.—Roosevelt's total vote in Cuyahoga county with two precincts missing was 56,523. Parker had 29,951. Roosevelt's plurality over Parker was 33,572. Debs had 7,626, Swallow 821, Corrigan 763. Roosevelt's majority over all other candidates was 24,392. The total vote for president in the county was 88,684. The result of election in Cuyahoga county was that every republican nominated for office in the county was elected except Frank A. Sarstedt for auditor. MINNESOTA. St. Paul, Nov. 10.—When all the returns shall have been received, it is claimed by republicans that Roosevelt's majority will run close to 125,000, if not more. An estimate made from incomplete returns indicates 109,000 majority. The republicans elected the entire nine congressmen and a state legislature which is strongly republican on a joint ballot. John A. Johnson, democrat, and Ray W. Jones, republican, were elected governor and lieutenant governor respectively. There is no doubt as to Johnson's election and the only matter of speculation is the size of his majority over Robert C. Dunn, republican. WASHINGTON. Seattle, Nov. 10.—Complete returns from one-fourth of all the precincts in the state of Washington and incomplete returns from most of the others show that the Roosevelt electors have carried this state by over 30,000 votes. Albert E. Mead (rep.) is elected governor over George Turner (dem.) by between 5,000 and 7,000 votes. Every other candidate on the republican state ticket is elected by from 3,000 to 20,000 except Humphrey, Jones and Cushman, for congress, whose majorities will be higher. The next legislature will be very strongly republican. WEST VIRGINIA Parkersburg, Nov. 10.—West Virginia seems to have kept pace with the rest of the Union at Tuesday's election. The democrats concede that Roosevelt has carried the state by over 10,000, while the republicans claim that Roosevelt's majority will be the largest ever given to any candidate by the state and may exceed 30,000. The democrats have not conceded the election of W. M. Dawson, the republican nominee for governor, although his election is claimed by the republicans by over 20,000. CALIFORNIA San Francisco, Nov. 10.—Roosevelt's plurality in this state will exceed 100,000. In this city alone it is 21,833 and in the 1,627 interior precincts, so far as heard from, it amounts to 83,300, making a total of 105,141. The full delegation of eight congressmen will be republican and an overwhelming republican majority in the legislature insures the election of a republican successor to Senator Bard. SENATOR FAIRBANKS. NEBRASKA. Omaha, Nov. 10.—Complete returns will be required to determine who is elected governor of Nebraska. Outside of governor, however, the republicans made a clean sweep on national, state, congressional and legislative tickets. For governor both sides exhibit figures which they say will subsantiate their claim for the election of their respective candidates. Roosevelt carried the state by about 75,000. UTAH. Salt Lake City, Nov. 10. About one-third of the voting precincts of the state give Roosevelt 27,381, Parker 15,992, Debs 1,509. Republican State Chairman Spry yesterday claimed the election of the entire state ticket, an almost entire republican legislature and the election of the Salt Lake county ticket. The latter claim is disputed by both democrats and American party men. NEW JERSEY. Trenton, Nov. 10.—Herbert Potts, secretary of the republican state committee, says that the revised figures so far received indicate that President Roosevelt's plurality in New Jersey is 70,000 and that Edward C. Stokes, the republican candidate for governor, will have a plurality of at least 50,000. The New Jersey delegation in congress will stand nine republicans to one democrat. DELAWARE Wilmington, Nov 10.—The republicans made a clean sweep in this state. Roosevelt's plurality will be over 4,000, while Lea, the republican compromise candidate for governor, will have a plurality of nearly 3,500. The republicans elected their congressman and will have a majority on joint ballot in the legislature of 16. This will probably mean the election of Edward Addicks as United States senator. VIRGINIA Richmond, Nov. 10.-Actual and estimated returns give Parker about 27,000 majority in the state. The Ninth congressional district is the only one carried by the republicans. MISSOURI St. Louis, Nov. 10.—Twenty-four hours after the polls had closed in Missouri found the results of the election still undetermined throughout the state, although it was practically conceded that Missouri had succumbed to the Roosevelt landslide only one democrat remained standing, he being Joseph W. Folk, for governor. However, even in the face of inpouring returns showing a democratic slump throughout the state, the democrats insisted that the true results cannot be known until the returns had been completed and asserted that democracy in Missouri was yet victorious by a very narrow margin. The republicans hoped for a complete victory throughout and insisted that Cyrus P. Walbridge, for governor, had not been defeated, but would finally be found to have won by a slight majority. They also claimed to have elected five of the 16 congressmen, making a gain of four, and declared they had a majority of two on joint ballot in the legislature, which will elect a successor to United States Senator Cockrell. MARYLAND. Baltimore, Nov. 10.—On the face of the unofficial returns of the votes cast on Tuesday, received here up to a late hour last night, Maryland is republican on the presidential ticket by a small majority. An official count may be required to decide the result. Three republican congressmen, Frank C. Wachter, Sydney E. Mudd and George A. Pearre, were surely re-elected. Three democrats, Thomas A. Smith, J. F. C. Talbot (re-elected) and John Gill, were elected. Congressman W. H. Jackson, republican, of the First district, claims that frauds or trick ballots were used in the district, and while he admits that the count of the ballots shows that Smith was elected, says he will contest the seat before the house of representatives. ILLINOIS. Chicago, Nov. 10.—The returns from the state outside Chicago have come in slowly, but those that have been received contain little satisfaction for the democrats, as they steadily increase the plurality for President Roosevelt. He has carried the state by over 290,000. The plurality of Deneen for governor is placed at 274,000. Roosevelt carried the city of Chicago by 107,299 and the county of Cook outside the city by 16,182, making his total plurality in Cook county 123,411. The republicans have made heavy gains in the legislature and will have a majority of 60 on joint ballot. INDIANA Indianapolis, Nov. 10.—The latest returns from over the state have not changed materially the earlier estimates of the plurality for the republican national ticket. Republican State Chairman James P. Goodrich is persistent in his assertion that 75,000 plurality for Roosevelt is a conservative estimate. Returns from the legislative districts indicate that the republicans will have a majority of 100 in the legislature which will this year elect two United States senators. CONNECTICUT. New Haven, Nov. 10.—The republican pluralities in Connecticut for the national and state tickets exceed anything ever before experienced in the state. Revised returns from every city and town give Roosevelt a plurality of 38,197, while four years ago McKinley defecated Bryan at the high water mark of 28,558. The four re-elected republican congressmen each had pluralities which the most confident never expected to see. The legislature is overwhelmingly republican NEW HAMPSHIRE. Concord, Nov. 10.—New Hampshire polled one of the largest votes in its history, the result being a decided republican victory for both national and state tickets. Roosevelt carried the state against Parker by about 20,000 plurality, while John McLane, rep., defeated Henry F. Hollis, dem., for governor by about 15,000. The republicans will have a majority of about 100 in the legislature. MASSACHUSETTS. Boston, Nov. 10.—Complete returns from this state show that the republican presidential electors received a plurality of 86,279 in a total vote of 422,825 cast by the republican and democratic parties. Douglas, dem., has 35,710 plurality over Bates, rep., for governor. VERMONT White River Junction, Nov. 10. Complete returns from Vermont: Parker 9,881, Roosevelt 40,691; Roosevelt's plurality 30,810. Same in 1900 gave Bryan 12,849, McKinley 42,569; McKinley's plurality 29,720. NORTH CAROLINA Raleigh, Nov. 10.—Latest returns indicate that Parker carried North Carolina by from 47,000 to 50,000. All congressional districts are democratic except the Eighth, which is still in doubt. MONTANA. Butte, Nov. 10.—Latest returns from the state give Roosevelt a majority of nearly 10,000. Gov. Toole, democrat, was re-elected, but otherwise most of the state ticket is republican. MICHIGAN. Detroit, Nov. 9.—Michigan was the scene of a veritable republican landslide. Roosevelt and Fairbanks carried the state by an unprecedented majority, variously estimated at from 100,000 to 150,000. Fred M. Warner and the republican state ticket are elected; at least 11 of the 12 congressmen from Michigan are republican and the legislature is overwhelmingly republican, insuring the re-election of United States Senator J. C. Carrows. Returns are very slow in coming in from the state and at midnight definite figures were impossible to give. MAINE Portland, Nov. 9.—The elimination from yesterday's election of a state contest in Maine detracted from the interest. The result was a victory for Roosevelt and Fairbanks.: Returns from 350 out of 519 cities, towns and plantations give Roosevelt 57,946 and Parker 24,730. The same places in 1900 gave McKinley 58,355 and Bryan 33,242. On this basis the republican plurality in Maine is estimated at 37,000. IDAHO. Boise, Nov. 9.—Six precincts out of 16 in Boise give Roosevelt 929, Parker 343. Gooding, republican, for governor, 845; Heitfeld 457. Roosevelt is conceded to have carried the state by a heavy majority. Gooding runs slightly behind Roosevelt. KANSAS. Topeka, Nov. 9.-The indications are that Roosevelt will carry the state by 30,000 plurality. The state ticket is badly scratched. T. T. Kelly, candidate for state treasurer, is running behind his ticket. All the republican congressmen are elected. WYOMING. Cheyenne, Nov. 9.—Wyoming is conceded by the democratic leaders to have gone for Roosevelt by a large majority. The race for the governorship between Byrant B. Brooks, republican, and John E. Osborne, democrat, is close. SOUTH DAKOTA Watertown, Nov. 9.—Chairman Martin, of the democratic state central committee, has issued a statement in which he concedes that Roosevelt has polled 60,000 votes in the state, Parker 30,000 and Watson 15,000. NEVADA Reno, Nov. 9.—So far as heard from the republican state ticket is in the lead, and Yerington (rep.) for congress, is probably elected over Van Duser (dem.). The state is conceded to Roosevelt. A LETTER FROM PARKER. He Addresses It to the Democracy of the Nation—Will Never Seek a Nomination for Office. Esopus, N. Y., Nov. 10.—Judge Parker last night gave to the press an open letter, addressed to the democracy of the nation, in which he thanked those in charge of his campaign work and declared that the people will soon realize that "the tariff fed trusts are absorbing the wealth of the nation." He said that when that time comes the people will turn to the democratic party for relief. In this letter Judge Parker says he shall never seek a nomination for public office. He discusses the difficulties encountered by the democrats in making their campaign this year and makes suggestions regarding harmony in the party. In conclusion the judge says that the great moral question that confronts the democrats is "shall the trusts and corporations be prevented from contributing money to control, or to aid in controlling elections?" The telegraph office at Rosemount Lodge was dismantled last night. Judge Parker said that his plans for the future were not definitely made, but that soon he would be in harness again. It is believed here that he will engage in the practice of law in New York, forming a partnership with some well established firm. A $15,000 STEAL. The Treasurer of an Arizona County Says He Was Held Up by Two Masked Bandits. Prescott, Ariz., Nov. 10.—James B. Storm, treasurer of this county, has been found locked in the steel vault of his office, bound and gagged, with $15,000 missing from the funds of the treasury. Mr. Storm had been in the vault 16 hours when found yesterday by his daughter. He says that about 5 o'clock Tuesday afternoon while seated in his office two men entered the door with handkerchiefs tied over their faces and, presenting a revolver to his head, ordered him to throw up his hands. Storm complied and the two men closed the door of the office and produced a string of baling wire, with which they securely bound his feet and hands. They forced a handkerchief into his mouth and pushed him inside the vault. After gathering up $15,000 and leisurely ransacking the office for more money the men closed the door of the vault, locked it and departed. Storm was unable to give any accurate description of the men. Alleged Kidnappers are Arrested. Alleged Kidnappers are Arrested. Cripple Creek, Col., Nov. 10.—Sheriff Edward Bell yesterday frustrated an attempted deportation of Frank P. Mannix, county clerk and recorder, a democrat. Mannix had been marched a mile and a half from town by three men when the party were overtaken by the sheriff and a posse. Mannix was released and William Carruthers, Carl Evans and E. E. Cornelison were arrested on a charge of kidnapping. They furnished bonds of 500 cach. Carruthers is the general freight agent of the Cripple Creek Central railroad and for several years was deputy under County Recorder Mannix. The other two men arrested are miners. A Close Call for School Children A Close Call for School Children. New York, Nov. 10. The lives of 2,500 children were imperilled yesterday when fire broke out in a public school building on West Forty-seventh street, but at the call to fire drill the little ones with scarcely a trace of excitement marched in safety from the burning building. Several of the children who were overcome with fear when they saw the flames and smoke in the halls were hustled out.by teachers and firemen. The school building was badly damaged. That no lives were lost is considered remarkable in view of all the conditions. Getting Too Cold to Fight. Mukden, Nov. 10.—All is quiet on both the Russian and Japanese lines south of this place. Both armies continue the work of entrenching and reinforcements are rapidly arriving. The increasing cold makes the prospect of a winter campaign doubtful, as military movements now would be attended with great difficulty. Fuel and forage are both scarce and dear. Falling Rock Killed Two Men. Pottsville, Pa., Nov. 10.—A six-ton rock which was embedded in the side of a shaft at the East Brookside colliery yesterday fell 300 feet to the bottom and killed Isaac Snow and Paul Ribley, of Tower City, and probably fatally injured John Sonk. A Royal Jap Visits Our Shores. Two Ships Foundered. Hamburg, Nov. 10.—The sailing vessels Thalia and Neptune, both from Hamburg, have foundered and all hands have been drowned.

Two dramas will be presented at Shiloh church, Thanksgiving after- moon and evening by the Young La- dies’ Loyalty club. As the admission charge is small and the entertain- ments will be above the average, the attendance will be large.

It seems from common report that the Egbert-Stewart ‘concert at St. John’s church last week Monday evening was not for the benefit of the ehurch, as most people supposed. Rumor has it that Henry Taylor paid the church trustees $15 for the use of the auditorium and allowed the Stew- ardesses to sell refreshments. The proceeds he retained. Smooth piece of work. It is said that Taylor cleared between $50 and $75.

Z. Jones, a Welshman—and they are noted for the possession of excellent voices and musical souls, just as our people are. Do not miss this treat! THE WORLD'S FAIR, OUR HUMILI- ATION, Henry Y. Arnett must. bear in mind that a single insult given to any Afro- American on account of color, is an insult to the entire race and must be so regarded. He cannot condone a single outrage upon the ground of a truckling expediency. The enlight- ened world was congregating at St. Louis and there must be no excuse for the slightest discrimination upon any terms. Upon the merest inves- tigation we find that Afro-Americans were most shamefully treated. The most palpable facts make bare the spirit of discrimination which con- stantly revealed itself in its treatment of our people. Never a day dawned but that, before the shades of even- ing came on, some unfortunate child of the race could feel himeslf the vic- tim of humiliation and littleness, and still, in defiance of all that has been ‘said or done and despite the earnest protestations of self-respecting Atro- Americans and the press, these in- sults have only continued to ad@ to our humiliation. It is to be regretted ‘that Mr. Arnett should put himself in so unenviable an attitude as to al- low himself to become the apologist of these wrongs to the extent of con- doning them. We can hardly believe that any one posing as a friend of the race, would suffer himself to be be- guiled into the business of defending insult given to any people. It will be known as‘long as time endures that the World's fair held at St. Louis, 1904 was, in many respects, 4 monu- mental fraud in so much that its pretentions were masterly sublime. The world became its assembled guests and though its exhibitions in many respects, remain unsurpassed, yet in meanness and littleness of soul, its managers needed the mag- nanimity of heart to receive colored citizens upon equal terms, as & pari and parcel of the human family. Other nations have celebrated like occasions, and received into their cosmopolitan embrace the people of all climes. But, in folly and shame, the managers at St. Louis made vic- tim the citizen of its own America, and thus dishonored the fair name of our republic as compared with other countries. Let it be remem- bered that true manhood cannot and will not accept any apology for the impositions and wrongs heaped upon Afro-Americans in the World's fair held at St. Louis in 1904. _ Fell and. Broke. His Neck. Columbus, O., Nov. 8.—The corpse of John Edwards, aged 66, was found under the sidewalk at the new Green- Joyce building yesterday. His neck was broken. It is supposed that Ed- wards, who lives near the building, walked into the opening in front of the building Sunday night, as he held clenched tightly in one hand a lantern which he carried with him when he left home. He leaves a widow. Trolley Car Collision Caused Death. Cincinnati, Nov. 9—Joseph Chris- tian was killed and several other pas- sengers injured in a trolley car collis- ion on Gilbert avenue yesterday. A ear ascending the avenue became un- manageable and ran backward, strik- ing another car. In all six cars ran backward and struck each other, Three Men Killed. Steubenville, O., Nov. 9.—Three workmen were instantly killed y gter- day in a buggy used to wrap a wire cable on the Lew Steubenville suspen- sion bridge. The rope supporting the buggy broke, throwing it against a pier and hurling the men to death on the ground below. Burglars are Busy at Columbus., Columbus, O., Nov. 9.—The season seems open in Columbus for the burg- lar, the porch climber and the key worker.

A., 28 Public Square, Cleveland, O. (455) A Town Is Caving In. Barberton, O., Noy. 8.—Residente near Silver Creek, a few miles south of this city, are anic-stricken’ be- cause of a mysterious sinking of the ground in several places. Many fami- lies have moved into the open air, preferring to suffer from the cold rather than to risk’ having their houses tumble down upon them. One of the most imposing residences in the place, a large brick structure, has eracked in severai places and threat- ens to collapse at any moment. It is thought that the sinkingeis due to the fact that all of the vicinity is under- mined by the coal tunnels which have been dug for Silver Creek mines. Funeral of Archbishop Elder. Cincinnati, Noy. 9.—The funeral service for the late Archbishop Elder took place at St. Peter's cathedral in this city Tuesday. From the begin. ning when the long line of clergy— archbishops, bishops and __priests— marching from the cathedral resi- dence around the front entrance of the vast auditorium, entered, chant- ing the laudes, to the final act, when the five absolutions were given to the dead, one absolution by the highest authority of the church in America, this was the most impressive funeral service for a Catholic clergyman ever held in the United States. 131 Furnaces in Blast.

A British celebrity, and a wonderful woman in more ways than one, has passed away at Bristol, England—Mrs. Williams, an old news seller. She was gifted with a marvelous memory, and still more marvelous digestion. Chapters of Scripture and all Watts' and Wesley's hymns she knew by heart. So great had the fascination for swallowing solids become with her that on one occasion she seized a box of dominoes and swallowed no fewer than 28 intact. Upon a later occasion she swallowed one and one-half pounds of large gravel stones, and again, in 1870, 13 large iron screws, but she completely recovered. Needless to say, she was the object of wonder, if not consternation, to Bristol doctors, and her digestive organs remained unimpaired to the last. A Mrs. Mary E. Meserve, of Salisbury, Mass., was cured of Anæmia, a disease in which there is an actual deficiency of the blood, by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People She says: "The first symptom was an unusual paleness. Later the blood seemed to have all left my body. I had shortness of breath and fluttering of the heart; was depressed, morose and peevish. I suffered for two years. Physicians did me little good but I am now a well woman because I took twelve boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills." These pills really make new blood and have cured obstinate cases of rheumatism, scrofula and erysipelas. They are especially useful to growing girls. Sold by all Druggists. of the World.

WET WEATHER COMFORT Pretty Models in Simple Gowns P ARIS.—The fancy for brown has by no means abated, and considering the popularity which this color had last year, it is extraordinary that we should still cling to it. Of course, it is now lightened Hussey Gould A CHARMING HOUSE GOWN. Made of cashmere, embroidered with a rose design, lace vest, sleeves and cuffs. A CHARMING HOUSE GOWN. Made of cashmere, embroidered with a rose design, lace vest, sleeves and cuffs. plaited or gauged; it forms a delightful trimming for the satin-surfaced beaver hats which are so much worn. They are exceedingly light and require but little trimming. Great buckles of velvet are extremely effective and seem to be sufficient trimming for the "Matador" shapes in welt or beaver. Brown and bronze greens are de rigueur for morning wear, but I should say that gray—a curiously cold, smoky gray—is the favorite color for the toilette de visite. Here again taffeta, piped in early Victorian fashion with velvet or AM going to write on the matter of house frocks and simple, inexpensive garments generally, for, despite the sumptuousness of out-door dress, and the glorious furs and beautiful fabrics a chic S simplicity has been introduced by exclusive dressers. Now simple dressing is not such an easy matter as it sounds. The person who cannot afford to pay for the really beautiful picture frock must not attempt too much, but must rest content with long, graceful lines; neither must she buy very cheap fabrics. Very often the sum of a few cents extra a yard makes just the difference as to whether a cloth hangs well or not. The woman who is wisely economical (there is such a thing as false economy) puts money into the garment that Harry Gould A PRETTY EVENING GOWN. Made of mousseline de soie, trimmed with ribbon, velvet and lace. requires it and has one good thing instead of two or even three inferior ones. The outdoor costume is not always a costly garment, for, if you are of medium figure for a couple of guineas you can obtain a ready-made and really smart-cut blue or black serge coat and skirt, and that is what one requires for every day wear and tear. Of course, one may pay the minest attention to such details as boots, gloves and smart, suitable headgear and carefully tied stock or cravats. But now let us consider the indoor frock. It is good news I imagine for many that cashmere is the rage in Paris, but I am afraid there are cashmeres and cashmeres. If you want your house frock to hang really well you will have to pay a fair price per yard for the material. Gray cashmere is ideal where it suits and if you get it in the right shade. It lends itself admirably to the Quaker style, adorned with the old-world embroidered lawn collar and cuffs. I advise Equal parts of tallow and turpentine mixed makes an excellent polish to use on oiled floors, oilcloth, etc. When the asbestos in stoves and fireplaces becomes blackened, it may be cleaned by sprinkling it with salt and allowing the gas to burn for awhile. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 12. 1904. quaint frayed-out ruches of silk, is extremely popular. I admit that a grey silk piped with black velvet does not sound very young or smart. But so much depends on the costumiere who makes the frock of this description, and such a gown well carried out, and accompanied by a beautiful 1830 hat with sweeping black plumes or shaded gray and black feathers, and a lovely gray fox stole and muff, makes the tout ensemble extremely uncommon and effective. There is no doubt that taffeta like crepe de chine is a charming and useful fabric for afternoon toilettes, and for five o'clocks, when rooms are heated and one requires something fairly light to wear under one's fur paletots. A lovely frock of silver-gray crepe de chine was trimmed with entredoux of grey lace the bodice and skirt were arranged in a series of big box plaits, the lace coming through from the bodice to the skirt, so that they appeared to be all cut in one; the skirt was very full and soft-looking round the feet. The elbow sleeves were finished with accordion-plaited chiffon and lace. At one side was an enormous chou of coq de Roche velvet shaded into a paler tone, and the capote was composed of the same fabric. This was worn with a gray fox boa and large muff. There is a great outey among Parisians that the stiff collar will ruin the shape of the throat, yet one would be sorry to see them disappear, for they look so smart for morning wear in the street, accompanied by the trotteuse skirt and a little sac coat, with one of the new delightful suede or kid bands which figure among the novelties in dress accessories with hand satchels en suite. The dainty little shirts worn in the morning are still of embroidered batiste and tucked or plaited white linen, and these are finished either with one of the new cravats or a plain linen collar and bow. Embroidered flannels, too, are worn, white perhaps being the favorite. These blouses are well cut and very, very simple; they are entirely devoid of lace or any suggestion of frou-frou, whereas the blouse for the afternoon is most elaborate, chiefly composed of beautiful laces, worn over soft satin and chiffon underbodice. Accordion-plaited blouses are worn as much as ever in the afternoon; many of them are profusely inserted with lace entredeux. They look very pretty in brown chiffon with yellow lace, and in orange chiffon, with lace toned to correspond. It is in garments of this sort that one can really appreciate these dyed effects. They do not sound nice, perhaps, but Lido assures you that in some cases they are quite charming. the amateur to buy a good cashmere so that she may have her skirt unlined. I think the lining of a dress is a difficult matter for the amateur. The pretty house frock of the moment is laid in full plaits at the waist, gathered or gapped as the wearer desires; if worn over a petitcoat of some substance, this makes an appropriate indoor skirt and one that cleans and even washes well. This is the moment when we are able to use up bits of lawn, lace and embroidery, to carry out the idea of the simple frock, and nothing is so becoming to the young as simplicity when it is well carried out. It is advisable to buy a waistband ready made, or to get your dressmaker to make you one really good one to serve as a model from which to copy others. There are so many charming and really inexpensive materials obtainable nowadays that we ought to be able to get a smart and becoming house frock for a comparatively small price. Of course, gowns for street wear are a little different, and the success of a short skirt depends upon the cut; it should also be worn with a smart petticoat. Although we cannot expect it to wear very well, the glace petticoat makes a smart finish to these inexpensive frocks, and for wear where things get quickly soiled, it is better perhaps to have two or three of these cheap underskirts than one more expensive one, although for ordinary purposes the underskirt made out of brocade remnants is distinctly economical. Washing satin petticoats, too, are admirable for house and evening wear. It must always be remembered that the petticoat requires careful cutting and if you have not a good pattern it is well to buy the cheaper ones ready made and properly cut from any of our large drapery establishments. The cult of the ready-made has been brought to perfection, especially in the sartorial world. But it is in the house frock that individual genius may be exercised with excellent results at small cost, and I have come to the conclusion that for street wear it is advisable to invest in a ready-made costume while for indoor wear one can hardly do better, on a limited allowance, than make a simple frock at home, by the aid of a sewing maid. Let me advise the amateur to eschew wonderful colorings unless she can afford good materials. Most of us recollect what a terrible craze there was three or four seasons ago for tweeds in crude shades of pink and blue, which people fondly imagined were vieux rose and pastel blue! All exclusive shades have to be specially dyed and can only be reproduced in the very best stuffs. The manufacturer) have brought colors to absolute perfection, but they cannot do them cheaply, not even in cashmeres. But there are some things we can buy cheap. Brown is not an expensive color and it is smart where it suits. Navy blue is delightful unless it be unbecoming to the wearer. It is not a bad plan for the woman on a limited allowance to find a color that suits her and to adhere to it throughout her entire wardrobe. ing a plain omelet. Baker's stale bread makes the best crumb. Muffins and gems, made without egg, but with more milk and butter, the batter beaten with a wooden spoon till it is very light, are said to be indistinguishable from those made with eggs.

Tokay and Syrian Grapes Grown in Northern Idaho—All Grains Are Over Weight When Properly Grown by Irrigation—White Flax Seed—Corn Wheat in Place of Corn. It is a big surprise to World's Fair visitors to find that tokay grapes grow in the United States as far north as Duluth, Minn. The particular place where this may be done is Lewiston, Idaho, on the banks of the Snake river. Whatever is done along the Snake river in the matter of agriculture and horticulture must be done with irrigation, however. The remarkable things done under irrigation are portrayed by a number of states. Colorado has a relief map of the Arkansas valley. Utah shows a diorama of one of her irrigated valleys. California exhibits her products from lands worth a thousand dollars an acre. Oregon displays her beautiful fruits and grains from irrigated districts, while Idaho, her next door neighbor, won twenty gold medals on her agricultural showing. The tokay grapes from Lewiston are only one of 62 varieties now successfully grown at that far northern point where the climate is almost as mild as Italy, for the tokay canpot flourish where the winters are cold. Along with the tokay is a fine sweet grape from Syria, in which every grape and fruit grower will be interested. The name is Hanisa, or Antab late, from Antab. It is large, or dark, and a fine keeper, the last being its most important quality. After traveling over 1,500 miles to the World's Fair it opened up in as fine condition as the tokay, and made a good show. These grapes are from the first vine of this variety fruited in America. Another fact not well known is that grains grown by irrigation in the dry atmosphere of the western slope of the Rocky mountains are much heavier than those grown in the east, and the yield is far greater. In the Idaho exhibit of the Palace of Agriculture at the World's Fair are many examples of irrigation results. A sack of oats was received at the exhibit a few days ago which was graded by one of the machines in the building and tested as to weight. It was found that the third, or poorest grade, weighed 38 pounds to the bushel, while the standard of weight for oats is only 32 pounds to the bushel. The yield is 100 to 110 bushels to the acre, and Idaho oats ordinarily weigh 42 to 46 pounds to the bushel. An acre of irrigated land yields about three times as much as an acre in a humid climate. Wheat in southern Idaho is 62 to 64 pounds to the bushel, the standard being 60 pounds, and the yield 50 to 70 bushels to the acre. A bundle of alfalfa hay, second crop of 1904, brought from southern Idaho, is as tall as a man, a six-footer. Five to seven tons to the acre are grown each season, it being used usually three times. All over southern Idaho, which for the most part is a vast desert, are cases that have been made fruitful by irrigation. The liberal provisions of the Cary Act of Congress have made possible the reclamation of these lands, the state taking over the lands and disposing of them to settlers at 50 cents an acre. The water right is an extra cost, in some cases as low as $25 an acre for a perpetual right, the first one or two crops often paying the entire cost of a fine property. Only a few days ago the state land board of Idaho threw open to settlement 100,000 acres of land under one canal at Twin Falls, on the south side of Snake river. It is in Cassia county, one of the counties that touch the Nevada border. In this instance the total cost per acre is $25.50, and under the liberal terms of the Cary Act entry may be made through another person. The payment is in easy installments. Many of the exhibits in the Idaho display are from along the Snake river, which is so named because of its sinuous course, and not because of any snakes. The water for the Twin Falls tract, which embraces 270,000 acres, is from the Snake, and the cost of the 2,000 foot dam and the 100 miles of main canals is about $2,500,000. A railroad is being constructed from Minidoka southward to cross the tract, which is expected to repeat the history of the Wood River Country, the Boise and Payette Valleys, and become a populous part of the state. Idaho has the honor of showing in her agricultural display something that very few farmers have ever seen, namely, white flax seed. This variety of flax originated in Idaho, and is said to possess great commercial possibilities, because it is richer in oil and produces a grade of very light colored oil that is far more desirable for white paint than the darker grade. Idaho is trying to do what other mountain states are attempting, that is, to supply the home market with fruits, vegetables, meats, grains and dairy products. The mountains contain hundreds of mining camps and settlements where everything now produced finds ready market, while the demand increases with each new mining district opened. Corn is about the only thing that does not grow well in the irrigated deserts of southern Idaho, because the summer nights are cool, but a kind of grain is raised called corn wheat that takes the place of corn, and produces over 100 bushels to the acre. It is worth any farmer's time to take a good look at the odd things in the Idaho display, where there are 47 varieties of wheat, 41 varieties of oats, 32 varieties of barley, and 34 varieties of grasses, to say nothing of vegetables, beans, peas, honey and other things worth having.

Flowboy-Came Out of the Field and Told Railroaders How to Start Stalled Engine. A traveling man relates that while riding on the new orient line between Harper and Anthony a few days ago, one of the side rods of the engine broke, and the other side stopped on a "dead center," so that when the repair was made it was impossible to start again. According to the Kansas City Star he says: "The engineer, the conductor and all the passengers took turns going over the thing and trying to devise a way to make it run. Finally a boy came out of the field where he had been plowing to see what was going on. He crawled through the wire fence and sat down on the bank and fanned himself with his straw hat. 'If you'd back that last car up the grade an' let 'er come down gerchunk, that 'ud start 'er,' he finally suggested, deliberately. "The railroad men sniffed contemptuously, but the passengers sided with the boy. Finally the conductor gave orders that the rear car be uncoupled. No less than 50 passengers caught hold and pushed the car up the grade. Once at the top the car was let go. The loose coach gained momentum as it came down hill, and in spite of the engineer's admonition to 'let her come down easy,' the emergency battering ram crashed into the train with a tremendous thump. The engine was bumped off 'center' all right." Best in the World. Cream, Ark., Nov. 7 (Special)—After eighteen months' suffering from Epilepsy, Backache and Kidney Complaint, Mr. W. H.

It seems to be a person, not a thing.

Not merely the size, nor the wheels going around, nor the throbbing steam—but all these and more. The engineer at the throttle and the fireman at the furnace door share the general admiration.

"For years I enjoyed the best of health and thought that I would always do so. I attended parties and receptions thinly clad, and would be suddenly chilled, but I did not think of the results. I caught a bad cold eighteen months ago while menstruating, and this caused inflammation of the womb and congested ovaries. I suffered excruciating pains and kept getting worse.

I had severe backache, bearing-down pains, pains across the abdomen, was very nervous and irritable, and this trouble grew worse each month. The physician prescribed for me, but I soon discovered that he was unable to help me, and I then decided to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and soon found that it was doing me good. My appetite was returning, the pains disappearing, and the general benefits were well marked.
