THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 29. President Roosevelt's Great New York Lincoln Day Speech On the "Race Problem"—He Says, the Only Safe Principle Upon Which Americans Can Act is "All Men Up," Not "Some Men Down." New York City—As the guest of honor at the Lincoln dinner of the republican club in this city Sunday, President Roosevelt made a speech on the "race problem." The president said; The bishop coadroit of North Carolina enters an emphatic plea against any social intermingling of the races; a question which must, of course, be left to the people of each community to settle for themselves, as in such a matter no one community—and indeed no one individual—can dictate to any other; always provided that in each locality men keep in mind the fact that there must be no confusing of civil privileges with social intercourse. Civil law cannot regulate social practices. [Illustration of a man with a mustache and glasses, wearing a suit and tie, set against a decorative background with floral patterns]. PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. The bishop says, "What should the white men of the south do for the Negro? They must give him a free land, a fair field and a aordial godspace. We must help them taking together for their mutual benefit, and for the development of our common country. He must have liberty, equal opportunity to make his living, to earn his bread, to build his home. He must have justice, equal rights and protection before the law. He must have the same political privileges; the suffrage should be based on character and intelligence for white and black alike. He must have the same public advantages of education; the public schools are for all the people, whatever their color or condition. "Finally, the best white men of the south should have frequent conferences with the best colored men, where, in frank, earnest and sympathetic discussion, they might understand each other better, smooth difficulties and so guide and encourage the weaker race." "Surely we can all of us join in expressing our substantial agreement with the principles thus laid down by this representative of the Christian thought of the south. I am speaking on the occasion of the celebration of the birthday of Abraham Lineho. We can pay mourning fitting his memorial by doing the tasks allotted to us in the spirit in which he did the infinitely greater and more terrible tasks allotted to Treat All Right. We of today, in dealing with all our fellow citizens, white or colored, north or south, should strive to show just the qualities that Lincoln showed; his steadfastness in striving after the right, and his infinite patience and forbearance with those who saw that right less clearly than he did; his earnest endeavor to do what was best, and yet his readiness to accept the best that was practicable when the ideal best was unattainable; his unceasing effort to cure what was evil, coupled with his refusal to make a bad situation worse by any ill judged or ill timed effort to make it better. All good Americans who dwell in the north must, because they are good Americans, feel the most earnest friendship for their fellow countrymen who dwell in the south, a friendship all the greater because it is in the south that we find in its most acute phase one of the gravest problems before our people; the problem of so dealing with the man of one color as to secure him the rights that no one would grudge him if he were of another color. To solve this problem it is, of course, necessary to educate him to perform the duties, a failure to perform which will render him a curse to himself and to all around him. Neither I nor any other man can say that any given way of approaching that problem will present in our time even an approximately perfect solution, but we can safely say that there can never be such solution at all unless we approach it with the effort to do fair and equal justice among all men; and to demand from them in return just and fair treatment for others. Our effort should be to secure to each man, whatever his color, equality of opportunity, equality of treatment before the law. As a people striving to shape our actions in accordance with the great law of righteousness we cannot afford to take part in or be indifferent to the oppression or maltreatment of any man who, against crushing disadvantages, has by his own industry, energy, self-respect and perseverance struggled upward to a position which would entitle him to the respect of his fellows, if only his skin were of a different hue. Lift Up. Not Push Down. Every generous impulse in us revolts at the thought of thrusting down instead of helping up such a man. To deny any man the fair treatment granted to others no better than he is to commit a wrong upon him—a wrong sure to react in the long run upon those guilty of such denial. The only safe principle upon which Americans can act is that of "all men up," not that of "some men down." If in any community the level of intelligence, morality and thrift among the colored men can be raised, it is, humanly speaking, sure that the level among the whites will be raised to an attendant level; if it is no less sure that the debasement of the blacks will in the end carry with it an attendant debasement of the whites. The problem is so to adjust the relations between two races of different ethnic type that the rights of neither be abridged nor jeoparded; that the backward race be trained so that it may enter into the possession of true freedom, while the forward race is enabled to preserve unharmed the high civilization wrought out by its forefathers. The working out of this problem must necessarily be slow; it is not possible in offhand fashion to obtain or to confer the价廉boons of freedom, industrial efficiency, political capacity, and domestic morality. Nor is it only necessary to train the colored man; it is quite as necessary to train the white man, for on his shoulders rest a well nigh unparalleled sociological responsibility. It is a problem demanding the best thought, the utmost patience, the most earnest effort, the broadest charity, of the statesman, the student, the philanthropist; of the leaders of thought in every department of our national life. The church can be a most important factor in solving it aright. But above all else we need for its successful solution the sober, kindly, steadfast, unselfish performance of duty by the average plain citizen in his everyday dealings with his fellows. The ideal of elemental justice meted out to every man is the ideal we should keep ever before us. It will be many a long day before we attain to it, and unless we show not only devotion to it, but also wisdom and self-restraint in the exhibition of that devotion, we shall defer the time for its realization still further. In setting to attain to so much of it as concerning dealing with men of different colors, we must remember two things. Need of Broad Mindedness. Need of Broad Mindedness. Let us be steadfast for the right; but let us err on the side of generosity rather than on the side of vindictiveness toward those who differ from us as to the method of attaining the right. Let us never forget our duty to help in uplifting the lowly, to shield from wrong the humble; and let us likewise act in a spirit of the broadest and frankest generosity toward all our brothers, all our fellow countrymen; in a spirit proceeding not from weakness but from strength, a spirit which takes no more account of locality than it does of class or of creed; a spirit which is resolutely bent on seeing that the union which Washington founded and which Lincoln saved from destruction shall grow nobler and greater throughout the ages. I believe in this country with all my heart and soul. I believe that our people will in the end rise level to every need, will in the end triumph over every difficulty that rises before them. I could not have such confident faith in the destiny of this mighty people if I had it merely as regards one portion of that people. Throughout our land things on the whole have grown better and not worse, and this is as true of one part of the country as it is of another. I believe in the southerner as I believe in the northerner. I claim the right to feel pride in his great qualities and his great deeds exactly as I feel pride in the great qualities and deeds of every other American. For weal or for wee we are knit together, and we shall go up or go down together; and I believe that we shall go up and not down, that we shall go forward instead of halting and falling back, because I have an abiding faith in the generosity, the courage, the resolution, and the common sense of all my countrymen. The southern states face difficult problems; and so do the northern states. Some of the problems are the same for the entire country. Others exist in greater intensity in one section; and yet others exist in greater intensity in another section. But in the end they will all be solved; for fundamentally our people are the same throughout this land; the same in the qualities of heart and brain and hand which have made this republic what it is in the great today; which will make it what it is to be in the infinitely greater tomorrow. I admire and respect and believe in and have faith in the men and women of the south as I admire and respect and believe in and have faith in the men and women of the north. All of us alike, northerners and southerners, easterners and westerners, can best prove our fealty to the nation's past by the way in which we do the nation's work in the present; for only thus can we be sure that our children's children shall inherit Abraham Lincoln's single hearted devotion to the great unchanging creed that "righteousness exalteth a nation." The recent birthday edition of the Columbus (O.) Standard was a very creditable affair, containing many interesting items and articles as well as illustrations. Editor Chavons will please accept our earnest congratulations and best wishes. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1905. SOME NEW LACE STITCHES The Rather Coarse Work Liked by Girls Ordinarily Not Over-Fond of Fancy Work. The girl who has a distaste for fine reewing and delicate floss embroidery, and who chooses the darning of tor linen and family stockings to her share of the household duties, will find a real friend in the new flet-stitch embroidery. In this lace work the designs are woven into a fine or coarse mesh net by darning instead of by the cross-stitch, as in Russian scrim embroidery. In fact, the vogue for cross-stitch embroidery has rather given way to flet lace work, which closely resembles fillet-guipure. The real flet lace is enjoying a decided popularity for insertions and edgings on table covers, center pieces and counterpanes. At a large dinner given this month by a well-known society woman the long table was covered with a magnificent linen cloth. Oblong insets of flet lace in orchid design, set at regular intervals, formed a square in the center of the cover, while the same oblong insertions outlined the edges of the table, and a flet lace edging finished the borders of the cloth. A square tea cloth seen recently at an afternoon reception was built from ten-inch medallions of flet, alternating with the same size squares of linen. The lace showed lordly roosters and peacocks silhouetted in white against the linen mesh. Collars and cuffs, medallions and bands of fletie lace will be much in evidence as trimming for the shirt waist and linen frocks of the summer girl of 1905. The girl who cannot afford the real gulpure can produce almost as striking effects in darned lace, with the aid of her book of cross-stitch designs. Colored laces seen so much on evening frocks this winter will be a feature of the washable dresses for warm weather, and for these the modish girl can embroider nets in the soft shades of blue, pink, yellow and lavender. In making fillet lace the net should be securely fastened to a piece of paper cambric or thin oilcloth. The mesh is so easily puckered and drawn out of shape that it must be watched carefully, or the result will be anything but satisfactory. The weaving is effected by a dull-pointed needle and mercerized cotton, silks or crewels in self-tone, or contrasting shades may be employed for the darning. The needle is drawn over one thread of the mesh and under the other, as in the simple darning process, the holes being filled in by two or three crossings of the thread. Another method of filling the holes is to have the threads pass diagonally over the tiny square, crossing each other in the center. This gives a more lacey effect than the straight-line stitch.—Washington Star. FOODS FOR THIN FOLK What to Eat and What to Avoid—If Followed Carefully Will Produce Desired Results. It follows that, if you wish to be fatter, you must eat freely of those things which are forbidden to the overplump, especially bread, pastry, cereal products of all kinds, potatoes and sweets. One great advantage of the system, as already stated, is that it does not require the person who pursues it to make a martyr of himself. Though butter is fattening, one need not give it, inasmuch as the quantity consumed under ordinary circumstances is small. Sugar is a fat-producer, but a few lumps daily in one's tea or coffee will not count. Sweets of all kinds are great fat producers, and stout people are apt to be particularly fond of them. In which connection it is worth noting that the use of sugar as food, in one shape or another, has increased enormously within the last few years. At the beginning of the nineteenth century it was very expensive—a luxury, indeed, almost beyond reach of the poor—but at present it is one of the cheapest articles of diet. If anybody who finds himself or herself beginning to get too fat will simply give up potatoes and bread for awhile the tendency will promptly cease. To abandon the latter is a hardship—how serious one realizes only after trying it for a few days—but the benefit gained amply pays for the sacrifice. Thin toast, thoroughly crisped, may be eaten, and will prove a consolation. Prince Bismarck's physician cured him of a tendency to obesity by forbidding him to drink anything at meals—a practice which, for some reason not satisfactorily explained, seems to have a tendency to make people fat.—St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Cauliflower. Cauliflower is a vegetable with great possibilities for the housewife inclined to gastronomis adventure. Try some day cauliflower auf Parmesan. Break the heads in large flowerlets and boil in salted water until tender, or about 30 minutes. Arrange them in a baking dish so that they look like one head and powder with grated Parmesan or other good cheese. Dust with fine bread crumbs and bits of butter. Make a sauce from a teaspoonful of butter, salt to taste, a teaspoonful of lemon juice, the yolks of two eggs beaten to a froth, and two tablespoonfuls of grated cheese. Pour around the cauliflower and set in the oven until a delicate brown—Louisville Courier-Journal. Aunt Mabel's Maple Mousse Boll one large cup of maple syrup until it ropes. Pour slowly over the well-beaten yolks of eight eggs, heating constantly until smooth. Put into a double boiler and scald, not letting it boll. Remove from the fire and let it become cold, then stir into one pint of whipped cream. Turn into a freezer, pack well in ice and salt and let it stand for three or four hours — Philadelphia Press, THE FEDERAL NATIONAL HERITAGE SOCIETY A SWELL SOCIAL FUNCTION.

We clipped the Associated Press’ fake dispatch from one of our daily papers and sent it to Attorney ‘Charles R. Doll, of Chillicothe, who, under the date of Feb. 13, wrote us as follows: “T have your letter with Assoclated Press clipping, anent the banquet to De given here Feb. 23, 1905, at Me- morial hall, by the Ross County Re- publican club. I think the dispatch gent out by the Associated Press had ‘ts inseption in the mind of some dope fiend, for instead of invitations being seat ‘out 0 20 leading colored poll. 8, the club has extended an in- ‘vitation to every republican in the county, trrespective of race or color. Ido not know of a single republican who has refused to attend, or even intimated that he would not attend, ‘because of the probable attendance of colored men. The. Ross County ‘Republican club has a membership ‘of over 200, and'of this number some 40 are men of color; and ft can be sald of the white members that they are as free from predjudice and race Thatred as any body of men that you could find in a year's travel.

Read carefully the following salient points, veritable nuggets, from his great address: | “Abraham Lincoln had a treaty of Peace which was never sent to the senate, It made him the ally of the Lord of Hosts.” “It {8 a good thing to remember that, while it is occasionally proper to join in mass meetings for the pur- pose of calling attention to neighbors’ shortcomings, it is normally better to turn to our own.” “Phere 1s not one of us that does not sometimes stumble, and shame be to us if we do not help him up, but if he lies down there is no use in try- ing to carry him. It will hurt both of us.” > “or weal or for woe, we are knit together, and I believe that we shall go up and not down, that we shall go forward instead of halting and falling back, because I have an abiding faith in the generosity, the courage, the resolution and the common sense of all my countrymen.” “I believe in this country with al my heart and soul. I believe that our people will in the end rise level to every need, will in the end triumph over every difficulty that rises before them. I could not have such conf. dent faith in the destiny of this mighty people if I had it merely. as regards one portion of that people.” “We of today, in dealing with all our fellow citizens, white or colored, north or south, should strive to show just the qualities that Lincoln showed: his steadfastness in striving after the right, and his infinite patience and forbearance with those who saw that right less clearly than he did; his earnest endeavor to do what was best and yet his readiness to accept the best that was practicable when the ideal best was unattainable; his un. coasing effort to cure what was evil, coupled with his refusal to make a bad situation worse by any ill.judged or ill-timed effort to make it better.” “To deny any man the fair treat. ment granted to others no better than he, is to commit a wrong upon him—a wrong sure to react in the long run upon those guilty of such denial.” “The only safe prinelple upon which Americans can act is that of ‘all men up,’ not that of ‘some men down.’” “he ideal elemental justice meted out to every man 1s the ideal we should keep ever before us.” “Law-abiding black men should, for the sake of their race, be foremort in relentless and unceasing warfare against law-breaking black men.” “Let us be steadfast for the right; but let us err on the side of gener- osity rather than on the side of vin. dictiveness toward those who differ from us as to the method of attaining the right.” “All of us alike, northerners and southerners, easterners and western. fers, can best prove our fealty to, the nation’s past bythe way in which Wé do the nation’s work in the present; for only thus can we be sure that our chil- dren's children shall inherit Abraham Lincoln's single-hearted devotion to the great unchanging creed that ‘righteousness exalteth a nation.’” ‘There 1s not a member of the race im this country who will not feel like doffing his cap every time Roosevelt's name is mentioned for a long time in the future.

If Glossine was not the best hair tonie in all the whole ‘vide world this offer would bankrupt us, Glossine (Queen of all hair ton- ea) Is the most wonderful remedy for the human hair ever discovered and has astounded tho whole world by fis miraculous and mysterious power in lengthening, straightening and beautifying the human hair. It is the result of long years of careful studs and the earnest researches of Mise Helen Martin, a beautiful and attrac- tive woman who Is acknowledged the most skillful and famous beauty doc- tor of the day. She is a wonderful and most magnificent specimen of womanly graco and beauty, and al- though now 58 years of age she searecly looks to be 30. When asked by what medinms she had been able to co successfully preserve the attrac- tiveness and beauty of youth, Miss Martin said, “Why it is very simple to mo and overs woman, be she white or colored, yourg or old, or as ugly a sin itself, can become pretty, shape- ly and graceful if she will only do as [advise As a child T never was considered pretty, n fact 1 was not even thought to be good looking, and [for this very reason ever since I was | girl of 16, 1 have made a study of | such agencics and materials which tend to beautify and adorn the human person. In the glorious — vegetablo World which nature has so bounteous- ly bestowed upon us, there are hun~ [dreds of Innocent mediums, which, |after my long lite of study and inves. | tigation, 1 have been able to success- [fully biend and formulate into various [preparations which enhance and pre- sorve the life and beauty of the hair and skin. I owe my own good looks [and youthful appearance to these preparations which are the results of my life long work. As to Glossine [Thave never known ito fall to catito the hair to grow long, straight, soft and luxurious. It matters not_how harsh and kinky it may be and I care not if it be short, broken, splitting at the ends, or falling out, Glossine will positively make {t long, soft, straight and pliant. It will give to the hair luster, length of life and beauty, and no head of hair can be so harsh and refractory but that Glossine will make {t so pliant and wavy that it can be dressed with ease and in any prevail- ing style desired. It will restore gray hair to its former olor, make the hair grow out on all bald spots and ‘on the temples where tho hair is usually thin and tasightly. Glossine is highly, sweetly and most delicately perfumed, and {ts color ars] subsist. ency is very attractive to all.” Seeing our great success and with the detire to trade upon our reputation gained by long years of honest dealing, nit- merous unscrupulous firms are trying to fool theapeople into buying spurt. ous and harmful compounds for the hair and skin, that cause the hair to ‘fall, thus causing baldness, and ruin, -mar and deface the delicate texture of the human skin, In their wicked desire to gain money, these people do not hesitate to sell the people many preparations which are dangerous to life itself, In order to discountenanco and condemn such dishonest methods, Miss Martin has decided to give a full size package of Glossine to any reads er of this paper, male or female, who will send their namo and address. Do not delay. Write today. A postal card will do. We will also send cur catalogue which describes in detail our hair tonfes, face bleachers and other toilet requisites.

Mrs. Catherine Bolden, mother of Mrs. Abner Smith, of 27 Newton street, is quite ill at 47 Elsinore street, Pneumonia. The charity ball Wednesday evening at Gray's armory proved a success and will not the Old Folks' Home a goodly sum. The flash-light picture from which the excellent group portrait given on page 1 of this issue of The Gazette, was taken, was the work of Lehr, photographer, Euclid avenue. Don't fail to attend the "Martha Washington tea party" on Friday night, February 24th, at Cohen's hall, 354 Ontario street, given by the G. U. O. of F. F., and Household of Ruth. Grand march at 11 o'clock. Most of the wines for the great "Stag" dinner noted on page I, were purchased from Charles H. Seales, who is connected with the J. H. Marcus Co. Mr. Seales left the city Thursday on a short business trip for his company. Lieut. Joseph D. Hackley has resigned from the local company and Ninth battalion O. N. G., to which it is attached. "Doc" McPheeters was recently elected captain of the company. The vacancy made by Mr. Hackley's resignation will be filled at an early date. The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of a very pretty souvenir postal card, kindly sent from Havana, Cuba, by Mrs. Sarah Rickens who left the city some weeks ago to spend time there in Florida. On the card is a fine view of a portion of Columbus park, Havana. Judge R. L. Tayler, of the local Untold States court, doubtless acting on the suggestion published in these columns last week, has appointed W. Rosier Jackson as messenger, thus continuing him in the service. "Jack" held the same position during a part of Judges Ricks' and Wing's incumbencies of office. Out of the Christmas fund recently divided at the union club for the employees according to length of service, James Huston received $155 William Mowbray, $90, and John Wilson, $85. Others that benefitted, but not so well because they had not been so long in service there, were Albert Christy and Edward Jackson. William Wilson, practically all his life a resident of this city, born on Central avenue near Erie street, about 47 years ago, died suddenly with what is supposed to have been heart failure, early Wednesday morning at this home, instructed "Billy" as he was familiarly called, was very popular and leaves a wife and a host of friends to mourn his death. In recent years he devoted most of his time to party work. The farewell reception to be tented Rev. R. L. Dickerson, pastor of Cory chapel, will take the form of a concert and banquet to be given at the church on Thursday evening, March 2. An elaborate program, which will include ministers of our local churches and others who will deliver addresses and give vocal and instrumental selections, has been prepared. Supper will be furnished all who attend without extra charge. Will H. Cisco was in the city recently en route to California and Mexico, in charge of a car. He will not get back to Chicago until in April. He was born and reared here, locating there several years ago. His father, J. H. Cisco, was in the east and west last week, returning here the first of the week. While in New York he had a very pleasant visit with Mr. John Lightfoot and Charlie Marshall, for many years residents of this city. He arrived in Chicago on his daughter's (Mrs. Sadie Bolden) birthday, and gave her a second delightful surprise in the shape of a beautiful and valuable birthday present—a yearly custom with him. Mr. Moten, who stops with W. W. Gee, 21 Newton street, has received an appointment as clerk in the postoffice and is serving as an assistant during the probationary period. A Mr. Johnson who lives at the same address and who passed the civil service examination at the same time, is in a fair way to secure a like appointment. A member of the race, whose name we do not recall at this writing, a clerk in the local postoffice, was transferred here last November from Indianapolis. At this rate the Cleveland postoffice will soon have a sufficient number of the race as employees to give proper color and possibly tone to the institution. Last week Friday evening Household of Ruth No. 7 gave a reception in honor of her 37th anniversary at Mrs. Benjamin Douglass', 43 Newton street, having as its guests Ohio ologe and friends. Rev.

Gorgan Guy, of London, Canada, D. G. Godge No. 28, and Mrs. Hattie Price whose selection was very much appreciated. The reception closed with a few remarks from all present. A very enjoyable evening was spent About 50 guests present. The February Colored American Magazine is too full to enumerate every article, "The Way of the World" is brimful of timely topics written in the master's style and embraces his history, literature, politics and church affairs. There is a beautiful tribute to the late-William H. Baldwin, "Scrambled Eggs," which created so much interest last month, is concluded with this number, "The Balance of Power" is also concluded. "The Story of an African Slave Boy" reads like an Arabian tale, "Liberia, the Modern Eldorado," is very interesting George Henry Murray writes about "Women." There are two pieces of verse that are really beautiful—Charles Bertram Johnson's latest sonnet is dedicated to "A Shell," "The Trial on Mount Olympus," by George Thornton, is a poetic vindication of "Song," "Here and There" is an added feature. The editorials are very strong; and one—"The Sun Shines on Washington"—is exceptionally bright "The Magazine," says a distinguished white editor, "has a field," and "it covers it well," adds Chas W. Anderson. Ten cents the copy, one dollar the year. 181 Pearl street, corner of Cedar street, New York. DOCTOR FELL DEAD.

In the little town where Chapman was vis iting lived a young woman who was or ganist in the principal church. Next to her apartments in the hotel were those of an elderly lady who acted as her chaperon. The girl, who was gifted as an elocutionist, was not omly the pride of the little city, but the object of almost universal affection. Chapman was re- garded as a handsome ne'er-do-well; evertholess his devotion to her and her attachment to hii were recognized by all “One day a stream of blood was ob- served HACKIINE GTO thE top’ Othe — aa z ef i ee Jeg gi | a g cs y Go eg. s lene Vey staircasing, When the track of blood was followed It led to the door of the room which the girl musician used as her studio. ‘The door waslocked.

Its blade eurved like a scimiter, ‘The handie which was of pearl, bore an undecipherable mark sus- gesting a coat-of-arms. It breathed the atmosphere of the lands of the vendetta. ‘The only person in town Who was known to have visited foreign countries was Chapman. “In the girl’s room was found a letter written from Barcelona, Spain, by Chap- man, There were other letters also, among them one from her father, an Englishman, who, from the crest upon the seal, appeared to be a nobleman. “Although Chapman had not been seen at the hotel, the evidence appeared a a aes TERRORS OF FIRING LINE. ae ‘Screech of Death-Dealing Shells De- ~~ clared to Be an Awful Strain / on the Nerves.

The whiplike smack of the bursting shell, the ewish of the scattering bullets are nota- ing to the mocking screech of these mes- sengers of death as they pursue each other as if in competition to complete the awful object of their hideous mis- sion. The whole welkin is discordant with their tumult; you feel the rush of misplaced air, splinters sing in your ears, the earth is in constant tremble with the violence of the discharge; you feel it pulsate against your cheek pressed to the moist mud of the parape: and then a bullet saps the life blood of the comrade whose elbow has touched yours day and night for 40 hours.

When searched a handkerchief known to have belonged to the girl was found in his possession, “On the day of the trial the courtroom was crowded with spectators. It was understood that there was a witness not known to the defense. Upon this witness the state relied for conviction. At five o'clock the prosecutor, James T, Ronald, rose. He was a remarkable man, of powerful stature, commanding in height and possessing a trumpet-toned voice, He called to the bailif: “Bring in Mrs, Martha Braddon!” “A stir of interest ran through the courtroom. Mrs. Braddon was the gen- tle old lady whose apartments were next to those of the dead girl “'She said that she had known Chap- man from his boyhood: had knowa the dead gir] for two years; had known of the love betweon Chapman and the dead girl from the girl's confession, ‘Then in the tense stillness she testi- fled that on theday of the tragedy she was reclining in her room when she heard from the next room the expression ‘I'm tired of this; I've had enough of this, and then the words: “This is the time to end it’ Later she heard seuf- fling, and the girl's voice saying: ‘Don't ill me,’ and then, after a pause, the clos- ing of a door. “When questioned she said she had attached no importance to this as the girl, being an elocutionist, frequently practiced readings, and she thought this one of her reeitals and that she was read- ing in two votes some dramatic selec- tion. After the death of the gir! she re- alized that the other voice was Chap- man’s. She asserted that she could not be mistaken, She swore as positively as one could that she knew it was Chap- ‘man’s voice which exclaimed: ‘I've had enough of this!” “Though Chapman had not been seen in the hotel, he had really gone to the girl's room that morning. “The case was ready for argument. For myself, I was never so hopeless in my life. Itwas the custom to present the law to the court separately from the ar- gument to be made to the jury. The state's attorney was to open, of course; T was to follow, and he was toclose. ‘The presiding judge was the gentleman who “has been three times mayor of Seattle, Judge Humes, He had been the boon companion and law partner of the state's attorney. I mention this to show how dificult it would be for himto mistake the identity of the state’s counsel or his peculiar and marvelous voice. “At noon the judge signaled to me, saying: ‘You may begin your argu: ment upon your legal contentions while we are waiting for Mr. Ronald.’ I replied saying that I preferred his presence. Just then a voice in the corridor was heard saying: ‘I will be there in a moment.’ “It was at once recognized by the Judge as the voice of the state's attor~ ney. The jurors also recognized it. “Judge Humes, hearing the voice, said: ‘You may proceed, Senator Lewis —(I was then closing my term as a territorial senator)—Mr. Ronald is entering.” “[ had already risen, and, turning toward the door, saw, not Mr. Ronald, but his young aughter, ‘Then it was clear that the voice was not Ronald's, but that of his daughter, speaking to the lady who had come with her. We waited several minutes before the state's attorney appeared with an arm- ful of books, having been in the library selecting decisions to reply to what hie anticipated would be my legal con- tentions. “Here was my opportunity. On this seemingly trivial circumstance the life of Chapman bung. Tat once aban- doned every thought that I had previ- ously entertalned so far axa line of de fense was concerned. Walving my ar- gument on the law, I presented to the jury the evidence of the fact—that a moment. before, the Judge, who was known to have been his life friend, was s0 secure in the belief that Mr. Ronald was about to enter the court- room that he had ordered me to pro: ceed with my argument. Also, that so absolutely assured were the jurors, all of whom knew Mr. Ronald, that it was his voice they. too, were prepared to proceed with the cause. “Prom that I argued that, although the volce proved to be that of his daughter, each one of the 12 Jurors and the Judge himself would have sworn, wero it necessary, that they had heard Mr. Ronald's voice. How, then, T asked, in the face of such a demon- stration, could they convict Chapman upon the statement of Mrs. Braddon, when she, too, however honest, could have been as fmich mistaken as they? “The jury acquitted Chapman, “The girl, who was the unconscious savior of a man’s Ife, has recently been awarded a medal at a Chicago college fc the best contralto tone pro- auced in a contest of a hundred votees.

His ancestors were not £0 liable to sudden attacks from wild beasts and snakes. Besides, sudden and wild starts would have been positively dangerous to them. Consequently they teained to avoid the very trick which has been so useful to the horse, The habit of eating thistles, which is pecu- lar alone to the donkey, is also descend- ed from these ancestors.

Down at Hot Springs, Ark., the vis- tors have all sorts of complaints, but it 1s a subject of remark that the great majority of them have some trouble with stomach and bowels. This may be partly attributed to the heavy med- felnes. Naturally, under the eonditions, the ‘question of food is very prominent. | ‘A young man states that he kad euf- fered for nine years from stomach and dowel trouble, had two operations which did not cure, and was at lest threatened with appendicitis, He went to Hot Springs for rheum- atism, and his stomach trouble got worse. One day at breakfast the walt- er, knowing bis condition, suggested he try Grape-Nuts and cream, which he did, and found the food agreed with him perfectly. ‘After the second day he began to sleep peacefully at night, different than he had for years. The perfect diges- tion of the food quieted his nervous system and made sleep possible. He says: “The next morning 1 was astonished to find my condition of con- stipation had disappeared. I could not believe it true after suffering for 80 many years; then I took more inter- est in the food, read the little book ‘The Road to Wellville,’ and started following the simple directions “I have met with such results that In the last five weeks I have gained elght pounds in spite of hot baths which take away the flesh from any- one. “A friend of mino has been entirely cured of a bad case of indigestion and stomach trouble by using Grape-Nuts Food and cream alone for breakfast. “There is one thing in particular— I have noticed a great change in my mental condition.
