THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 50. HOUSE GOWNS AND OTHER GOWNS ALONG GRACEFUL LINES. THE busiest of women rest all over a few moments every day, that they may keep on with their busying in an energetic and able consisting of two puffs and a de frill. For a really summery appearan we prefer a less fussy design. At the moment the shops are selli batiste and other thin patterns manner—and also because a bit of rest is so grateful to the truly energetic, the woman that works with her might instead of potters. And when a woman rests, has time to think, she wants to do it in a garment that will not distract from the refreshing success of toil. Wherefore, we have corsets removed, petticoat unhampering, the outer dress luxuriously. And everything should correspond. slippers be of the easiest and lightest, corsets removed, petticoat unhampering, the outer dress luxuriously. One may take the social cup with boudour friends attired in short silk petticoat and tea-sack. Such a petticoat is short and shows the gay, coquettish slipper plainly, fits nicely about the hips, is very frilly and voluminous at the bottom. Sacks are of a variety, and all charming when notunchy in the back. As a rule they are short and have a girlish appearance, and as a rule the sack matches the skirt. If the petticoat is of silk, a sack like it is very pretty, although one of white net or transparent material also is very pretty. Often with the lingerie waist a lingerie petticoat is worn, and this is a dainter fashion. The sack may either sport a yoke or have trimming to stimulate one. The long negligee gown may be on the Empire order or the Watteau style. And now the Japanese kimono slowly vanishes from favor, being superseded by a Chinese coat, a queer, shapeless thing that is neither long nor short. But it is made of beautiful silk, and richly embroidered. This coat is thick, and warm enough to be worn in the winter, as well as on a cool summer day. The present liking for elbow sleeves and square neck comes in well for the negligee, as very simple ones having these features possess a certain amount of style. The sleeve shown in the figure without the coat is very popular, THE TRIM GIRL OF TODAY THE TRIM GIRL OF TODAY Now the summer girl must be neat and trig, rather than blowsy and trying to wear an exaggerated holiday air. She must be careful of her appearance, eschew untidy hair and rumpied apparel. She may play all she likes out of doors, but she must wear a veil to keep rebellious locks in place, she may keep off tan from arms and hands with long gloves. Maybe it is because she has to live up to her hat, such a neat little affair as it is. It sits closely down on smoothly coiled hair, trimmings and part of the brim sometimes come well down over the back. The turbans seem universally becoming, may be said to be the most popular feature of this season's millinery. Our design shows an attractive and rather unusual model, with trimming fore and aft. It is worth while to consider that a woman is able to get up her summer outfit from cheap materials in a highly satisfactory way. In winter thick stuffs must be high-priced to be presentable, but summer materials of low price are often extremely pretty. We have in mind some pretty chambrays and cotton volles in the way of suits that are as pretty as need be. They cost but a few cents a yard, it takes but a few yards to make them; and there for a trifle one gets one's gowns. Employ a dressmaker at home—if you can't make them yourselves—and in a trice you will have trocks of good style. Wear shoes, belts and stocks of T N consisting of two puffs and a deep frill. For a really summery appearance we prefer a less fussy design. At the moment the shops are selling batiste and other thin patterns at prices much reduced, and now is a good time to buy and make one's summer negleige. Until the hot weather is really upon us we do not seem to know what is the best way to make the summer costumes. All fashions are settled by now; we have had full opportunity to see what is worn. To turn from house dresses. A lovely traveling dress recently brought to our notice consisted of Russian-blue poplin a waist of pongee in the same shade. It was all so cool and comfortable looking and a suit that would so easily shed dust. It seemed just the thing for summer travel. There is nothing smarter for country wear this summer in the way of shirt-waist suits than the ones made of calico. Their first cost is slight—but the laundry bills! For the girl that wants to look on at athletic sports but take no part herself, the white serge suit is a favorite. White linen is a craze this year, some girls are aiming to appear in it the summer through; a tailor suit of moderate weight for day time, the thinnest of handkerchief linen for evenings. Linens are declared to be in fashion for all occasions save traveling. Slowly we are learning to appreciate the little cape wraps of silk and other light-weight materials. Sometimes lace is used for the cape, sometimes linen is employed, again thin cloth. They are so convenient to throw on of a summer evening, and really are more becoming than the boa of such long service. Of shot silk they suggest ye olden days, and are as picturesque and becoming as the old-fashioned trippers worn by our grandmothers. Gilt belts are worn, and when good, are quite expensive. Narrower belts are promised, and it is more than probable this fall we shall have the princess effect, the waist fitting over the skirt without the use of a bodice or belt of any sort. late mode, wear one of the trim small turbans above eulogized, and you will be what the summer girl should be above all else—dainty and fresh. Many of the wash shirt-waist suits come in three pieces; the shirt-waist suit itself and a bit of a summer coat; oftenest a bolero, with wide elbow sleeves or close-fitting suits. For dressier wear, silk is in favor, a little silk bolero suit and a variety of walstes would provide madam for almost any occasion the season might present. Two hats are enough; the small one for tailor suits, the larger, more elaborate for afternoon and evenings. However, we find many that approve of the turban for all hours of the day, it is such a novelty they are too fond of it to give it up solely for outing and simpler costumes. Electric Traction Wins Electric Traction Wins. Since the world's fair test in Chicago, when a steam engine in a tug of war contest succeeded in dragging an electric locomotive back, the development later has steadily progressed until it is used at all times where the electric locomotive assumes superiority. It has been so greatly increased in size, weight and power that recent tests prove it to be more than able to hold its own. Between a specially selected Pacific type steam passenger engine and the latest model of electric locomotive the latter came out well ahead in all of the trial runs. In addition the weight of the trains behind the locomotives was 56 tons greater for the electric factor than for its competitor, although the greater weight of the steam locomotive made the total weight of the trains approximately equal.

The Improvement of the Afro-American Greatly Handicapped by "Jim Crow" Cars and Like Contemptible Discrimination—A "Key-Note"—Aristocracy of Decency. Rev. A. F. Beard, D. D., secretary of the American Missionary association, New York, in the magazine of the association recently said: "The Negroes will never improve if the worst traits of the least industrious and moral of the race are accepted as fixing the standards for all who have the misfortune to be born black. There has been too much of the wholesale classification of Negroes, and its result has been to deceive and obstruct in every possible way the tendencies to progress which a wiser policy would have fostered and stimulated. People may call the west 'wild and wooley', and away from cultivation it is, but it is everywhere broad and free, and those who are seeking homes for themselves and their children like this. The south has more than its share of poor land, and is handicapped by its restricted social condition. This sheds some light upon the question of immigration in the southern rural parts of one country. The Negro farmer will always be beekeeping." Jim Crow cars are justified for Jim Crow people. People who herd, should herd together. This south and north, and everywhere. "The president of the United States has one word—decent"—which he is extremely fond of using . . . Well, there should be an aristocracy of decency, people uncouth, ragged, unclean and smelly, whatever their color, belong in Jim Crow cars. The iniquity is, in relegating people who are 'decent' to the companionship of those who are not. It is not a right thing for a railroad company in the north to put unwashed immigrants in the city, but it is not the people. It certainly is wrong to compel those who are irreproachable in person and character to travel among those who are not, simply because of race or color. In New Orleans the other day I was interested in the fact that the trolley cars have sections 'for white' and sections 'for colored'. The division is not for the clean and unclean, but for the colored and uncolored. A gentleman of slight color who lives in an excellent residence on a main avenue in New Orleans has under his direction a number of white men a shade whiter than he, who rejoices in the success of a report to him, but he cannot ride to his place of business in the same section of the trolley with them. "Let us hope for the day when discriminations shall be made on President Roosevelt's basis. It is a great injustice which generalizes a people into a common class and ranks the highest with the lowest. White people do not do it for themselves. White people have their degenerates and their unregenerates, their bank-robbing bank president and absconding cashiers, idlers, tramps and reprobates of all sorts, but they are not the white race. On the other hand, those of the Negro race who are educated, industrious and self-respecting are pulled down with the help of an entirely different class of the race. They carry the weight of it on their souls. They are made to bear the reputation of those who are low down." "NIAGARA MOVEMENT." Representative Afro-Americans From Fifteen States in Conference at Fort Erie—Prof. Du Bois Leader of the Work. Buffalo, N. Y., July 13.—Representative men of the race from fifteen states are in conference at the Fort Erie Beach Hotel and have formed a permanent organization for the improvement of the condition of our people to be known as "The Niagara Movement." The officers of the society are: Prof. W. E. DuBois, of Atlanta, Ga., general secretary, and Hon. George H. Jackson, of Cincinnati, treasurer. The conference opened Tuesday with 51 members in PROF. W. E. B. DU BOIS. attendance. Meetings were held Tuesday, Wednesday and today, which resulted in the adoption of a series of resolutions for the improvement of the Negro. The movement is national in scope and is started in opposition to the theories of Booker T. Washington, who advises the colored man in the south to confine himself to work and let the affairs of state alone. The members of the new society favor manhood suffrage, and hope by means of the new movement to accomplish their ideals. Prof. Du SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. Bois, the general secretary, is well-known as the author of "The Soul of Black Men." He has lectured in this city before the Equality club and at the Westminster church on Delaware avenue. The platform of the Ningara movement follows: Freedom of speech and criticism; an unfettered and unsubsidized race press; manhood suffrage; the abolition of all caste distinctions based simply on race and color; recognition of human brotherhood as a practical present creed; the recognition of the highest and best human training as the monoply of no class or race; a belief in the dignity of manual toil; united effort to realize these ideals under courageous leadership. The Niagara movement will hold annual meetings. The work of the organization will consist of appointing a committee in each state to co-operate with congressmen and legislators to secure just legislation for the colored people, and the committees will from time to time issue literature and reports on the progress of the work. Those in attendance at the meeting are: MR. JAMES R. SNYDE F. H. M. Murray, Alexandria, Va. J. S. Madden, Chicago, Ill.; Robert H Bonner, Fall River, Mass.; the Rev G. R. Waller, Baltimore, Md.; H.

Foreman of the Recent Grand Jury, Succeeding a Ex-Confederate Colo- nel and an Ex-County Official. We take pleasure in giving above an excellent portrait of one of our best known local citizens—an exceptionally loyal and active worker—Mr. James R. Snyder. It is not our intention at this time to give a biographical sketch of him, but simply to call the attention of our many readers to his recent splendid work in behalf of the race in the Mignaud-Morrison case. One Morris Mignaud or Mignard, a French-American and an alleged active worker in the Friend's church of this city, was arrested in April or May on the charge of rape committed upon a little colored girl of about 12 years and his baird fixed at $3,000. This the baird worked for, mandated to the county jail, where he remained for many weeks, being bound over to the grand jury. For about a week after the organization of that august body, the ex-Confederate colonel was foreman, being succeeded by an ex-county official, who held the position a trifle longer. Although the only Afro-American member of the jury, Mr. Snyder was selected to succeed him as foreman and retained as such until the adjournment a few weeks ago, serving about three times as long as both of his predecessors. When the Mignaud case was brought to the attention of the jury it was considered briefly and set aside for a future date, and when taken up again the vignage world of Mr. Snyder, thus freeing the man, this his attention of the proceedings that the attention of the editor of the案. The Gazette was called to the case. He enlisted the assistance of Revs. J. M. Glmere, E. D. Dandridge and J. M. Dickerson, pastors of three of our local churches. By some quick and active work we were able to secure at the hands of the grand jury another consideration of the case, with the result that a secret indictment was returned against Mignaud and the fellow rearrested. In an article which will follow this at an early date full particulars will be given. At this time, however, we wish to call attention to Mr. Snyder's mastery effort before the grand jury, which did more to bring about the desired result than anything else. The assistant county prosecutor, who was in the jury room, as the legal advisor of that August body, characterized Mr. Snyder's eloquent and impassioned appeal for indictment as one of the grandest best arguments he ever heard made a jury by one of its members. For many hours he held them practically spellbound result that the same body which but a few weeks prior to that date had voted no indictment in the Mignaud case, reversed the verdict with but two dissenting votes, one of these being that of the ex. Confederate colonel. Too much praise cannot be showered upon our loyal fellow citizen and brother, Mr. Snyder, for his splendid work, because it was a masterly effort in behalf of virtuous womanhood. Neither white nor black women must ever feel that is any laxity in the law when it comes to such crimes, even if our women or girls are the victims. Morgantown, W. Va. Items Morgantown, W.

An Arkansas Afro-American by the name of Carter, who had won the place in a civil service examination, was recently appointed a clerk in the postoffice at Greenwood, Miss., the home of Gov. Vardaman, a satellite of Senator Ben Tillman when the "race question" is the theme. When Carter reached Greenwood from Pine Bluff, "a few of the leading citizens" (white, of course,) "talked" him out of his intention to accept the place. We are assured by the Associated Press representative in that miserable Missisippi town that "there was no gun play or attempted violence, but after talking to a few of the citizens of Greenwood, Carter concluded that this atmosphere would not conduce to his health, and, tendering his resignation, returned to Pine Bluff." Here is another clear and flagrant case of intimidation which interfered in the government service. That it was slight, is a matter of no moment. It was unwarranted interference and that 'ought not be tolerated from any source, to say nothing of such a denial of citizen's rights, especially when an effort is being made to conserve the interests of the government. This is not the first instance of the kind, either. What is to be done in such cases? The president is the man of all men to answer this question, and the man of all men abundantly able, and we believe perfectly willing to do so. It is certainly high time a halt was called. LET US SOMETIMES FORGET. The eminent Henry Dickson, of the "Dickson School of Memory," Chicago has well said, "We are no greater intellectually than our memory. All success in life depends upon memory for the reason that the faculty of memory controls all the other faculties of the brain. In fact that faculty is the seat of the mind." Memory is the governing function of the mind and it should be trained as to bring out those hidden talents which so often are never awakened in our mental being. We take no exception to the methods of memory training so ably set forth by the learned Prof. Dickson. We warmly endorse all his teachings and recommend his school to the hopeful student, for he advises that this faculty must be controlled and directed. So without any intention of differing from this wonderful teacher of memory training, may we not ask, is there not danger of remembering too much and remembering too well? In cultivating and developing this function of the mind may we not find it impossible to forget something which we should not remember and in training the memory to reproduce thought, is it possible for us to forget what we do not care to remember? May not the exercise of will-power and the concentration of thought become so thoroughly developed as to leave the individual helpless to think what he does not want to think. It seems as important to forget some things as to remember others. To know how to forget as well as to remember, seems to be equally essential. No man has ever become great without learning to forget. We are to disrobe our mental powers of whatever may encumber or depress the soul, and this cannot be done unless we have learned to forget and dismiss the disagreeable object from the memory. We are to train ourselves to erase from the memory all shadows and fears if we would reach the goal of our ambition. We cannot succeed in life unless we learn to forget. Sombre clouds may drift across our minds, awakening memories of a sad and darkened past, but they must be dispelled ere the nervous impulse weaken in its proper channel, and despair seizes the man. Ugly things will happen, but it is always best not to remember them. Bad and vicious men hardly ever forget an injury, because they nurse their ugly passions, are resentful and will not forget a wrong. But all men desire to be cheerful and happy, and the best way to succeed and prolong life is to forget ignoble things and drive out from the memory all hatreds, all resentments and everything that tends to degrade and be little manhood. No man shall nurse a spirit of bickering and wrath, nor allow himself to be turned from the pursuit of pure and lofty alms. But if he fails to overlook the little, petty perturbations that disturb the mind, he is sure to fall in the accomplishment of great ends. Would we be great and magnanimous in life, would we be generous, manly and forgiving, then let us forget the wrongs we sometimes encounter, forget those injuries done us in human weakness and make our lives a memorial of good unto others. We cannot afford to waste our lives in pinning, we can not afford to nurse our grievances. The habit is a bad one and it will make us miserable and the more wretched while we live. A noble task awaits us and we should hold ourselves in readiness to do the better part. 'Tis sweet to remember the good and beautiful; but oh! let us live not under the clouds, not in sorrowing and despondency, but in the pure sunlight of the early dawn where fond memory lifts the soul into the beatitudes of the bright and illimitable beyond. Bishops Arnett and Walters Insulted. Baltimore, Md.—The Christian Endeavor convention here last week was quite an affair. The trustees were much incensed at what they term an evidence of southern prejudice. Among the delegates were Bishop Alexander Walters, of New Jersey, and Bishop B. W. Arnett, of Ohio. These gentlemen occupied the most prominent places on the platform at the various meetings. At a meeting of the trustees at the Bell Tower, they mission to go up in the front elevators, and were compelled to use the back elevators, used by servants. They took the matter very sensitively.

Wagar, now in the penitentiary for the murder of his brother, was settled in Judge Lawrence's court Tuesday. Wagar's interests were represented by his cousin, Mars Wagar. The policeman received several thousand dollars; how much was not disclosed. Klaamyer's suit grew out out of a shooting affray on January 24. George Wagar, after killing his brother, John, barricaded himself in the house. Klaamyer went to arrest him and received a bullet from a 44-calibre revolver in the abdomen. For weeks he lay hovering between life and death. Mr. Cooper's Invention. Findlay expects to have a factory to manufacture the "electrical shoe" invented by Mr. A. R. Cooper, of that city.

The mother of President Loubet of France died recently at the age of 32. The relation of these two persons was most interesting and suggests some lessons that are not found in the ordinary relation of son and mother. Mme Loubet was a market woman and refused to give up her occupation and go to live with her son after he was elected president. Previous to his election as president, February 18, 1899, Mr. Loubet had enjoyed a most brilliant career. President Loubet has proven himself to be one of the most remarkable productions of French life and is extremely popular, especially with the common people throughout France. After his exaltation he did not forget his peasant birth, and above all he did not forget his peasant mother. It is said he would go and see her often and sit by her side in the garden. He was a glory of a republican form of government. He was president in spite of his lowly birth and dignitary. In his mother he recognized the dignity of honest toil and no heights to which he attained him from her. The son was an honor to her mother. And what's more beautiful and inspiring than the picture of a president of a great republic seated by the side of his peasant mother in the market place? Here's a lesson of hope and encouragement to every boy, however poorly born and whatever the environments. Here's a lesson to the impatient nature. Here's a lesson in life none should forget him to forget his mother. No man deserves so much the contempt of the public as he who imagines that he has ascended to a point where his parents, whatever their station, are beneath him. The public applauds and recognizes no action on the part of an individual more quickly than the devotion of a child to his parents. Verily, if we honor father and mother, not only life will be long, but from the public will come a constant and unstinted approval—Hon. H. C. Smith, editor of the Gazette, was in the city of St. Louis and S.W. R. Stewart, the co-founder of Hon. H. R. Stewart returned from Chicago Sunday. He leaves soon for St. Louis to visit his wife, who is slightly improved in health. She is visiting her father, Prof. Peter H. Clark, and other relatives.

From Brooklyn borough courts is reported a large increase in the number of "John Does." The excess of "Does" in Brooklyn, too, says a local authority, is the result of an accident that the disappearance from the Mansion of Martha Roe and "Roes." In the old English courts, when the name of a plaintiff was unknown, the custom was to describe him as "John Doe." When the defendant's name was described as "Riehl Roe." In the criminal case the name of an unidentified male prisoner was entered as "John Doe" and of a female prisoner as "Jane Roe." In civil cases with women appearing as principals, the name of the defendant was any other, for the female plaintiff, and "Jane Roe" for the female defendant. In Manhattan the colloquial use of the word "dough" has a slang designation for wealth. John Doe has been called "John Doe," describing a man of money. John Doe has come for money.

Arriving at a Verdict Kushequa, Pa., - July 10.—(Special)—In this section of Pennsylvania there is a growing belief that for such Kidney Diseases as leucomatism and Lame Back Disorders, there is a possibility that Dodd's Kidney Pills. This belief grows from such cases as that of Mrs. M. L. Davison of this place. She tells the story "I have suffered from Rheumatism for thirty years and find that Dodd's Kidney Pills have done me more good than any other pill." Mrs. Davison only bothered with Lame Back and I can only say that my back hasn't bothered me since I took Dodd's Kidney Pills." I have only two doses, only two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills, the result would be considered wonderful if it were not that others are reporting it as a cure for Rheumatism. I arrived at a verdict that "Dodd's Kidney Pills are the one cure sure for Rheumatism." The Difference.

St. Louis, July 8.—The White River division of the Iron Mountain Route, between Newport, Ark., and Carthage, Mo., is rapidly approaching completion, and report of representatives of the general passenger department, who recently made a complete trip over the line, indicates that through trains will be running inside of sixty days. “While several thousand tourists have already made the trip from each end of the completed line, and we have hauled during the month of June over forty fishing parties from Carthage, who desired to make the five-day float from Galena to Branson, returning on train in 50 minutes, for the complete daylight run over the new line.” Mr. H. C. Townsend, general passenger agent, “there will be a tourist travel unprecedented over any line in this part of the country. The fishing proposition is becoming so well known that, a number of club houses on the James river, between Galena and Branson, are now completed and are taxed to their capacity.” “The romantic features of the new line are naturally the ones to attract the most general attention, but the agricultural and natural facilities of this new region are remarkable.” "The road itself is a marvel of engineering, and the 85-pound rails, with rock ballast, promises the highest degree of speed and safety."

MARKETING POTATO CROPS How the Railroads Made It Possible for the Growers to Get Fair Prices In line with the classic case of the oyster shipppers, cited by President Hadley, of Yale University, in his book on Railroad Transportation, is the case of the Arooostook potato growers brought by President Tuttle, of the Boston and Maine Railroad before the Senate Committee on Interstate Commerce. Nothing could better show how a railroad works for the interest of the localities which it serves. A main dependence of the farmers of the Arooostook region is the potato crop, aggregating annually eight to ten million bushels which find a market largely in Boston and the adjacent thickly settled regions of New England. The competition of cheap water transportation from Maine to all points along the New England coast keeps railroad freight rates on these potatoes always at a very low level. Potatoes are also a considerable output of the truck farms of Michigan, their normal market being obtained in and through Detroit and Chicago and other communities of that region. Not many years ago favoring sum and rains brought a tremendous yield of potatoes from the Michigan fields. At normal rates and prices there would have been a glut of the customary markets and the potatoes would have rotted on the farms. To help the potato growers, the railroads from Michigan made unprecedentedly low rates on potatoes to every reachable market, even carrying them in large quantities to a place so remote as Boston. The Arooostook growers had to reduce the price on their potatoes, and even then could not dispose of them unless the Boston and Maine railroad reduced its already low rate, which it did. By means of these low rates, making possible low prices, the potato crops of both Michigan and Maine were finally marketed. Everybody eats potatoes, and that year everybody had all the potatoes he wanted. While the Michigan railroads made rates that would have been ruinous to the railroads, had they been applied to the movement of all potatoes at all times, to all places, they helped their patrons to find markets then. The Boston and Maine Railroad suffered a decrease in its revenue from potatoes, but it enabled the Arostock farmers to market their crop and thereby to obtain money which they spent for the varied supplies which the railroads brought to them. If the making of rates were subject to Governmental adjustment, such radical and prompt action could never have been taken, because it is well established that if a rate be once reduced by a rail company, it cannot be restored through the red tape of Governmental procedure. If the Michigan railroads and the Boston and Maine Railroad had been subjected to Governmental limitation they would have felt obliged to keep their rates, as do the railroads of France and England and Germany under Governmental limitation, and let the potatoes rot.—Exchange.

HANGED BUNCH OF RIOTERS Twenty-four Leaders of the Uprising at Odessa Were Executed in Various Prisons. TREPOFF GETS MANY WARNINGS The "Worst Hated Man in Russia" Is Told in Letters that He Will Be Assassinated — Terrorists Planned to Blow Up Czar's Palace. Odessa, July 14.—Twenty-four leaders of the recent disturbances here were hanged yesterday in various prisons. Another batch of 17 will be publicly executed upon the arrival here of Gen. Ignatief. The battleship Georgi Pobledonosa tetz has arrived here with a fresh crew for the purpose of taking 67 mutineers to Sevastopol for trial by court-martial. Of 202 persons arrested and charged with robbery or incendiarism in connection with the recent riots here, 74 were acquitted owing to lack of evidence and 28 were sentenced to six weeks' imprisonment, the time to include the two weeks which they have already passed in prison. The extraordinary outcome of these trials has aroused much comment. It is openly asserted that it is a political demonstration against the military government and furnishes evidence of the conflict going on between the municipality and the government, as the judges are elected by the people. St. Petersburg, July 14—The assassin of Prefect of Flect Shuvaloff, of Moscow, has been identified as a former school teacher of St. Petersburg named Rulikovsky, who was actively connected with the political agitation and is believed to have belonged to the terrorist organization. After the prisoner's escape from the police station where he had been confined as a political suspect some days previous to the assassination of the prefect, Shuvaloff set all the police of Moscow at work to effect his recapture. The prisoner in the meantime shaved off his beard and while the police were searching for him everywhere the man went to the prefect's office and committed the crime for which he will now be tried. The bullets of the revolver used by the prisoner were filled with poison. The crowd in the ante-room of the prefecture set upon the assassin, who was dragged into the street and terrified. The resignation of M. Boulignis as minister of the interior is expected daily. Gen. Treepoff, the assistant minister of the interior, will probably be his successor. The terrorists have recently renewed their warnings against Gen. Trepoff with ominous persistence. The general is constantly in receipt of letters signed by the executive committee of the fighting organization informing him that his hour has come. A remarkable feature of all the communications is that the writers say that no safewards will await to avert his impending death. At the same time they tell him he need not be afraid to go abroad in the streets. They add: “Your sentence will be executed in your own room. You will die in your bed.” The police have discovered elaborate preparations for blowing up the castle of lilmskoje, near Moscow, where the czar with the imperial family intended to take a brief residence in the fortress, the most defended for his majesty's use a subranean passage is said to have been found leading to a cellar where 250 pounds of dynamite lay concealed.

Men Who Had Murdered a Detective Got the Worst of a Fight with a Posse of Kansas Citizens. Winfield, Kan, July 13—C. S. Cahoon, of Kansas City, a Santa Fe Railway detective, was shot and killed at Cedarvale yesterday by two outlaws, who were shot down later by a posse of citizens. Newtown, seven miles from Cedarvale. One of the outlaws, Ed Madigan, of Ponca City, Okla, was killed instantly by the posse. The other, William Chadburn, of this city, was fatally wounded. Madigan and Chadburn held up and robbed six traveling men at the Brettun hotel at Winfield on Sunday night and escaped. At Cedarvale, Tuesday night, Detective Calhoun encountered both of the outlaws on the street. Not being positive of their identification, Calhoun secured the city marshal and one of the traveling men who was robbed. All then started in a carriage in search of the outlaws. Early yesterday the party drove past the men in a side street. The traveling man identified them, and the trio in the carriage were just in the act of making a stand when either Madigan or Chadburn opened fire. Calhoon was shot through the heart and the outlaws made their escape temporarily. The marshal and the traveling man, taken by surprise, were unable to fire a shot in return. Calhoun's body was taken to an undertaker's room. The town was quickly aroused. The outlaws stole two horses and started for Hewins. While a posse was gathering at Cedarvale, word was wired ahead to Hewins, where the deputy sheriff summoned a posse of 20 armed men. Within two hours the outlaws rode up to a hardware store at Hewins, secured a rifle and a revolver and started out of town on a gallop. Just as Madigan and Chadburn were leaving the main street the posse opened fire from the windows of a store. The robbers returned the fire and a hive of pillage ensued. Finally, Madigan fell from horse, being almost instantly. Another soldier brought Chadburn to the ground. During the exchange of shots J. M. Pope, a member of the posse, received a slight wound in the foot. POLITICS AND BOODLE New York Legislators Will Ask a Newspaper Man to Prove Statements Reflecting on Them. Albany, N. Y., July 13.—A sensational turn was given Wednesday afternoon to the joint session of the state legislature which is investigating charges against Supreme Court Justice Warren B. Hooker, when John B. Stanchfield made an appeal on behalf of Justice Hooker from the inferences contained in a newspaper article. Mr. Stanchfield called attention to an article which he said appeared in the New York Press of yesterday, some excerpts from which he read. Among other things the article said: "It cannot be denied that powerful influences are at work to keep Justice Hooker on the supreme court bench. There is both politics and boodle in this movement. Republicans and democrats are concerned in it. Gov. Higgins' goal not just to be a bit disturbed by the cloud of scandal hanging over the legislature." The article also declared with reference to the test roll call on Tuesday in the assembly on the rule of evidence that "it was seen early in the call that defeat was about to come for the proposition to restrict the evidence to the code rules. Immediately Hooker's lawyers began to lobby among the members of the assembly. When the roll call was completed the vote was 49 to 47 against. The clerks, instead of announcing the vote, waited until further lobbying was done." Stanchfield condemned the statement in strong terms and declared that all Hooker asked was fair play. Senator Raines stated that diligent inquiry had failed to elicit the name of the writer of the article. Upon his motion a subpena was ordered issued, to compel the attendance "forth-with" of the editor of the paper to give testimony as to the origin of the charges and the writer of the article. AN OCEAN TRAGEDY. Twelve People on a Small Schooner Were Murdered by a Negro. New Orleans, La., July 13.—The Norwegian steamer Bratten, Capt. H.

Victim I had been Helpless When He Tried Dr. Williams' Pink Fills, but W was Cured Four Months. Because he did not know that there is a remedy for ataxia, Mr. Ariel endured four years of weakness, pain and the misery of thinking his case incurable. "At the outbreak of the Spanish- American war," he says, "I went with Company B, Eighth Regiment, M.V.M., into camp at Chickamauga, and while there my system became thoroughly poisoned with malaria. When I was mustered out, I carried that disease home with me. After a while locomotor ataxia appeared." "I first noticed a pain in my ankles and knee pain, followed by a numb feeling in my legs. At times I had to drag myself around; my legs would shake or become perfectly dead. I had constant trouble in getting about in the dark. I kept a light burning in my room at night as I could not balance myself in the darkness. Even with the aid of a light I wobbled, and would reach out and catch hold of chairs to prevent myself from falling?" "How long were you a sufferer?" "Four years in all. During the last three years I was confined to bed, sometimes for a week, against for three or four weeks at a time. When I was lying down the pain in my back was frequently so severe that I had to be helped up and put in a chair to get a little relief. I had considerable pain in my knees no control over my kidneys. The worst of all was the doctor could give me no hope of recovery." "How were you out?" "I read that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had cured locomotor ataxia and one or two friends spoke to me about them. In the fall of 1903 I began to take them for myself and I had not used more than one box before I found that the pains in my knees and ankles were greatly relieved. Four months afterward I became a perfectly well man, and I am today enjoying the health." Mr. Edward H. Ariel lives at No. 43 Powow street, Amesbury, Mass.
