THE SEVERAL TO CHOOSE FROM. SEVERAL TO CHOOSE FROM By the sleeve you can gauge the fashion of one's dress pretty correctly, though the skillful woman is able to remodel last year's apparel very successfully by a change in some few details, most important of all the sleeve. A smart, long cuff, close-fitting, is the feature of the present fashion, and if the old sleeve is wanting in material the cuff may be made of lace or some contrasting goods; wash-stuffs are best liked, as this is primarily a day of dainfulness. The cape sleeve is not exactly new, but the one shown in the sketch has the virtue of being in good style and of being fashioned of two materials. A neat sleeve is the one giving the outline of the arm, but notice it is by no means what would be called tight-fitting. Perhaps the most desirable model presented is the one with the long cuff and double puffs; this one helping to bring out the points now considered to make up the good figure, breadth of shoulder and a tapering waist. The one-puff sleeve is a pattern that is very easy to make the puffed shoulder than that illustrated will obtain with the most careful dressers, those that study advance styles. The mutton-leg will be in evidence this winter, perhaps a trifle smaller than last year. Care should be taken with this sleeve that the under part does not bag or draw the whole down into a shapeless bag, as, unfortunately, was the case with the mutton-leg of a season back. Coming to sleeves for evening wear, we select the very prettiest and most becoming among the endless variety on display. We are partial to the short sleeve that is really short, stopping above the elbow. To some arms this may be trying—the very angular and the too large—but the addition of a band aid can make it look better, but it less difficult. There is no better friend than black velvet, anyway, the one sure thing that can be worn, lessening defects rather than accentuating The Shirt-Waist Girls of To-Day She may wear a tailored waist or she may sport a fine lingerie blouse with her street suit. You see she is allowed considerable latitude. The winter through we probably shall have the lingerie waist in all its thinness and fineness, for why else are the manufacturers turning out such loads and loads of these dainty affairs? They seem a compromise, worn in conjunction with the tailored suit, between mannishness and feminine frivolity, and a compromise generally accepted. But the undarnored waistls of flannel and mohair, of linen and thin wool, are not tobe banished. The season presents some excellent models. Any of the waistlings may be employed for the design given in our illustration, though the frills should be omitted with the heavier materials; they being strictly tailored. The waist is tucked front and back. In front there is a center box plait to cover the closing. The cuff is a straight one, and tucks confine the fullness just above the cuff; there is a high standing collar or a cravat. The little frills are of lace. Collars are high again this year for NEAT AND DAINTY them. And again we call attention to the touch of black which is to be a feature of the winter styles, either velvet or satin employed to give the bit of contrast. The finish approved for the ordinary sleeve is some simple turned-over cuff of wash stuff, ice or batiste. Frills are not the best style save for dressy afairs, when the deep ruffles affected the last two years may still be worn. The fashionable bracelet looks well with the neat back-turned cuff, can be seen to more advantage than if veiled in long ruffles. An authority says the Fall woman will wear anywhere from one to half a dozen bracelets, so we may linger a moment to speak of these popular ornaments. The old-fashioned are the ones eagerly sought for, and those after old-fashioned models come highest. Speaking of color and fall days, we would mention a beautiful wrap exhibited in an exclusive little shop, a shop that enjoys the "very best trade." It was a voluminous long wrap of richest, deepest wine-broadcloth. A broad band of velvet of the same shade bordered the bottom and the fronts, giving richness and depth to the satin sheen of the cloth. The only other trimming was heavy loops of cord. If here were not elegant simplicity, simple sumptuousness, we have never seen it. Another late wrap on display was a separate coat of graceful Empire style. It was of tan broadcloth, the collar of black satin. Worn with a dusky black beaver this would be a very fashionable costume, avoiding the too-apparent picturesqueness of being combined with a large black velvet hat. For the wine-red cloak we would suggest a beaver hat adorned with plumes of the same shade. It seems too rich and wonderful a color to lighten with white cr any contrast. Furs might be worn with it, but do not add lace. shirt waists; one finds many other blouses quite decollete, especially if the fashionable fichu is used. But it is well with a trim shirt waist to wear trim neck dressing, tailored stocks for the tailored waist as a rule. For the lingerie blouse, the best style is a stock of material trimmed to match the waist. Yesterday we saw a very fetching shirt-waist suit for a young girl. It was made of black and white shepherd's plaid and trimmed sparingly with a frill of black silk alternating with one of bright red. A long rain coat matched the suit; the hat was a beautiful soft gray felt absolutely untrimmed, tricorne in shape. It made a very attractive girlish costume. There is really nothing gives a woman an more comfort than the possession of a frock stricly utilitarian, one that is of good enough material to stand the roughest wear, one that is of good enough make to appear well under this strain. We saw such a one recently and were almost tempted to instant purchase, in spite of the fact that the fashion folk right and left are insisting this is the day of smooth cloths, of plain colors. The one appealing so strongly was a check of unobtrusive blue and a warm gray—if there ever is such a thing as a warm tone of gray. There was not a particle of nonsense about skirt and coat; they were unashamedly utilitarian. But there was a cut that spelled "style," which is so very, very much. Lingerie waists follow lines approved now for bodices, broad shoulders, a moderately high bust, the waist blousing very little. The dip in front remains, though strenuous efforts are made to do away with it, although there are many assertions to the contrary. There was a day when it would have been called incongruous, the worst of taste, to wear with morning gown a frilly, fluffy, transparent waist; but now we look upon it as very good style; indeed, we plan the attractive contrast of wool and batiste. A few colored batiste waists are seen, pale blue in the highest of favor. And theady tones are approved in various colors when any but the white blouse is chosen. In Union There is Strength. ELLEN OSMOND CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30. 1905. A FIERCE THRUST AT THE VERY VITALS OF THE AFRO-AMERICAN BY MARY- LAND 'REPUBLICANS.' What Republican, Independent and Democratic Daily Newspapers the Country Over Have to Say Anent It—Comment! The course of the Maryland republicans in following the lead of the democrats of that state in decrying "Negro domination" and "social equality" of the races is of "wide significance to the republican party, not only in the south, but in the north likewise," in the opinion of the Brooklyn Citizen, (Dem.) while the Charleston Governor will prove "embarrassing to the national organization." The republicans met in state convention two weeks ago, and Mr. Bonaparte, a member of Roosevelt's cabinet, was the presiding officer. The platform adopted was wholly taken up with the denunciation of the democratic Poe amendment to the constitution. This amendment (considered in these columns August 19) would disfranchise the Negroes, and probably many whites, and leave the qualification of voters to be determined by the election boards. The sentiment in Maryland is largely on the side of disfranchisement of the Negro, but this particular amendment is criticized by many democrats and even by many independent democrats as one of Senator Gorman's tricks to keep his organization in power in Maryland. On the Negro question the republican platform says: "The republicans of Maryland do not feel it incumbent upon them to make any reply to the partizan warcry and senseless sham and shibboleth of 'Negro domination.' The republican party of the state of Maryland favors no social equality among the races; favors no Negro domination over the white people here or elsewhere, and can be depended upon to guard against the establishment of either of these conditions here in Maryland with equal safety and with greater sincerity than a partizan organization that wears the mantle and usurps the name of democracy." This departure from the traditional policy of the republican party toward the Negro is treated in many newspapers, both north and south, as though the whole organization had thrown over the Negro. "After 40 years of combat for political and social equality," says the Brooklyn Citizen. (Dem.) "the republicans have decided to withhold the vote for democrats for the preservation of Caucasian supremacy in the south." As the Washington Post (Ind.) remarks, "the thing will go from bad to worse until the republican party has a lucid interval as to this phase of our political and social problems, and sets about the repeal of the fifteenth amendment." "The republicans have found Negro suffrage to be an intolerable incubus on their party rather than a help to it, at least in the southern states." is the opinion of the New York Sun (Ind.) which goes on to say: "If, then, the republican party abandons the Negroes of the south and connives at their practical disfrainment of the Negroes' inherent unfitness for the franchise, what reason is there for the northern Negroes remaining in allegiance to it? It accepts the principle urged by the whole white south, that the Negro is intrinsically disqualified for the responsibility of voting, whatever the constitution may enjoin. It discards Negro suffrage as an experiment which has failed. "The Negro question, therefore, is now settled by the substantial agreement of both parties as to it. At the south and at the north the Negro accordingly no longer has any reason for looking on the republican party as The Charlotte (N. C.) Observer (Dem.) presumes that the president approves the utterances of his party in Maryland, and the Columbia (S. C.) State (Dem.) thinks that the secret of the action of the republicans is "that the republicans have ceased to find the Negro vote worth while. It costs them in the loss of white support than they receive in return." The Charleston (S. C.) News and Courier (Dem.) believes that "President Roosevelt, Secretary Bonaparte and the rank and file throughout the country could be depended on in final emergency to fight 'Negro domination' and 'social equality' to the last ditch; but they have carefully refrained from saying so for political reasons, and for political reasons only," and it remarks that "the silence of the republican party on this question has been dictated by its interests, not by its convictions." However, some papers hold that the convention merely bowed to local popular prejudices. "It must be assumed" says the Springfield Republican (Jnd.) "that Mr. Bonaparte felt compelled to accept that declaration by the exigencies of the state situation, which is undoubtedly 'touchy' concerning social equality." So, too, thinks the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle and the republican party of the country can have no fellowship with the pseudo-republicanism which so cravenly and offensively goes back on the splendid record of that party in favor of fair play and the civil and political rights of all citizens, regardless of 'race, color, or previous condition of servitude.'" While the outside papers are wagging this warm discussion, the Baltic more press have little or nothing to say about the matter—Literary Digest, New York City. Another Daniel Wilberforce Story. Huntington, Ind. Definite informa GAZETTE. Bishop Critically Ill. Wilberforce, O.—Bishop B. W. Arnett is here at home seriously ill. Fears are entertained that he will not recover. tion has been received here from Africa that Daniel Fleckenger Wilberforce, the former African missionary, has, with several other natives, been arrested by the English commissioner of West Africa, charged with cannibalism. While being taken to headquarters he passed through the town where his adopted family were staying, but was not allowed to see his relatives. He declared that he was innocent of the charge, and in case he was acquitted, asserted that he would ask forgiveness and return to the Christian faith. Daniel Flickenger Wilberforce was brought from Africa by Missionary John of Olio corps but attracted by his intelligence. He was brought to Ohio and was educated in Otterbein university. After he graduated, he delivered lectures on "The Dark Continent," in many churches throughout the country. He later went back to Africa as a missionary. Last spring word came from Africa that he had forsaken the Christian religion and accepted the teachings of heathenism. Then came a report that he had been killed. The story of his fall from the Christian teachings was told now comes definite information that he not only became a heathen, but is charged with cannibalism.—So says an Associated Press dispatch to daily newspapers.

OUR DUTY. ‘Mrs. Albion W. Tourgee expects to sail for America on Saturday, Novem. ber 4, bringing with her the handful of dust which remains of the “mortal tenement” of her beloved dead, to be deposited in the base of the monument to be erected to his memory in the cemetery at Mayville, N.Y. She will probably arrive in Mayville on No- vember 18. So much honor was ac- corded Judge Tourgee In a foreign land when he dled, four months ago, that we sincerely trust his own coun- trymen—especially those to whose ad- vancement he gave so much of his life work—will feel to show their ap- preciation of a man of whom they may all be proud, when these last rites are performed in his native land. Al ar- rangements for these will be in the hands of M. A. Porter, undertaker, Mayville, Chautauqua county, N. Y. ‘TRIBUTE TO JUDGE TOURGEE On Saturday, Nov. 4, the remains of Judge Albion W. Tourgee, the beloved dead, will be brought by the S. 8. “philadelphia” from a foreign land to Aimeriea. His bereaved and honored ‘widow will have charge of the remains and will have them deposited in the base of the monument, which will be erected to his memory in the ceme- tery at Mayville, N. Y. Honored and revered abroad in life by the noblest, and now that he has died, very as. suredly his countrymen who knew his worth, will unite in paying due hom- age to his memory. We need hardly refer to the fact that his life-long services in the cause of humanity were of the most exalted character and deserve to be cherished and per- petuated In marble. His aspirations were far-reaching and unselfish and were the most ennobling among men. But Judge Tourgee has passed trom earth and a sorrowing world, will turn ‘hither its mournful gaze in sad lamen- tation that the man who had espoused the cause of races and of God has been summoned from a career so masterful and sublime, to the realization of a grander Ife. He was a jurjst of the purest type, a typieal American whose great soul knew no compromise with wrong and he devoted every energy of his being in consummating the prin- ciples of law as conceived in the bosom of God. Few men so lived and none to higher purpose. If his own countrymen feel no qualling sensation of their dereliction of duty in remem- brance of the man whose unselfish life looms up as the brightest in the ga- laxy of great Americans, then let them with uncovered heads pay tribute to his memory. He lived as the fair guardian of a mighty republic and no true and loyal heart can justly shrink from the task of receiving and honor- fng his remains, The patriot and statesman alike may in becoming wis- dom, honor themselves by gathering around the sacred dust of departed worth. Afro-Americans, the poor and oppressed in America and all lands will honor and cherish the endeared name of the man who lived to bless and exalt mankind. specially should Afro-Americans as they surely will, ‘appreciate and honor the occasion when the remains of this illustrious son shall be conveyed to their native soll.

NOT TOO FAMILIAR, BUT RESPECTFUL. How true it is that very many of the so-called superior race presume to address cultured and intelligent Afro-Americans as “Tom” on “Bill,” or in using their surname to do. 80, without the usual courtesy of “Mr.” ‘as all white gentlemen very naturally ‘expect from all Afro-Americans, Now the Golden Rule embodies a fair, dealing principle, but it seems very evident that @ man regardless of race who {s unwilling to accord to any man the ordinary civilities and amenities due a gentlemen, 1s not only poor bred, but fs both boorish and igno. rant. In the highest senses Georse ‘Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Chas Bumner and Roscoe Conkling were gentiemen, They could not afford to ‘allow an Afro-American to show more THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1905.' Politeness to them than they them- selves were capable of showing. They were the purest types of the American gentleman. They were erudite and accomplished in all the arts and prac- tices of the noblest manhood and they were too broad in comprehension, too high minded and generous, to feel that these inborn traits of character could be lost to them, because their good Sense had taught them to respect the feelings and claims of all. But there 1s but a single interrogation to be made to the whole thing. What right has any man, unless he is a fool, what right has he to treat with indignity and discourtesy a black man by ad- dressing him as though he were an inferior, a servant or a slave? But we may suppose that the individual who is so low and stupid, assumes this liberty because he fears that he is making himself the equal of the Afro-American. Poor simpleton, in. deed!’ A man ts only what he makes himself, He cannot raise himself one Jot or tittle above the level on which he stands, unless he does so by a brave, manly and uncompromising stand for right and fair play. He can. not lift himself up to anything grand and enobling by insulting or degrad. ing a race which he scorns and de. spises. There is but one way by which any man vf any race can exalt himself and that is by undeviating rectitude and a determination to trea with kindness, courtesy and respect all men just 2s he would have then treat him. Then away with this southern bull-headedness, away with this empty-headed nonsense that lead: a fool to believe that he is above hi: fellows because he sees fit to play the clown. It is all stuff, the shadow for the substance, and lowers the persor who apes a master, belfeving himsel more than he fs, because he is meat enough and vile enough to encroac! upon the feclings of his black brother We must be respectful if we would b ieee! : TOLD TO PLEAD GUILTY. Largely in most parts of the south when an Afro-American is accused and arrested for a crime he is told “to plead guilty.” ‘The first thing the constable or sherift does is to say tc his prisoner, “Your case is a pretty bad one and unless you confess and plead guilty, it will be a great deal worse for you.” The prisoner per- haps knows himself to be innocent of all guilt, but he is under arrest; the circumstances point to his conviction and he Is told that to plead gullty fs the only thing possible to render the case mitigating. He is alarmed, for he realizes thé true condition of af. fairs and that at once a prejudiced sentiment is against him. Without ‘money and without friends, he relieves his mind in the belief that it may be the best thing he can glo to say: “Yes boss, I plead guilty.” “The unthinking man hardly knows that he has crimt. nated himself and that the offlcer has only strengthened his case and as. sured himself of a good fee. The prisoner finally is brought. before the bar of justice, his eyes beaming in hopeful confidence that his case will be a light one. In other words, that his acquittal ts certain. The lawyer for the defendant, with a sort of sym- pathetic look interviews the prisoner, saying: “Well, my boy, the proof is all against you and the best thing for you to do is to own up.” Frightened out of his wits and not knowing that he has been viethmized so unjustly, and being anxious for any compromise, the prisoner responds again “Yes boss, T own up.” But does the prisoner truly know what he means when he says, “I plead guilty.” Does he rea. lize the terrible significance by the sen- tence, “I own up,” which dooms him to certain death? How can he, when his every mancuver but betrays an effort for a speedy release from the hands of the law. ‘The ‘charge, per- haps, for criminal assault upon a white woman. A timid young girl of 14 years may have been passing the pub. We road and heard the terrific yell and witnessed the foolish exploits of some Afro-American Don Quixote. and fan. led herself the victim of an assault. The mind of the community will al- ways see some wretch sulted to Its suspicion and finds an easy victim for the courts. The prisoner is now on trial, he pleads guilty and the judge passes sentence. The convict is re. manded to jail. Night spreads her mantel of darkness and the angry mob gathers around and into the jail in obedience to the spirit of those who would defy the law. The-prisoner is lynched, In nearly all southern com. munities there is an unanimity of feeling in favor of the mob. The sheriff knew as well as the judge that extorting a confession of guilt was merely intended asa justification of the action of the mob. The prisoner is to stand trial, then what other mo. tive save that which is sinister can prompt an officer of the law or a sworn attorney to induce a prisoner to plead guilty or to confess to that ‘ot which perhaps he is innocent. Why should men show themselves so anx. fons to have the accused “own up,” ‘own up regardless of the guilt, if i be not tho intention of those who would ald and abet the mob in carry.

We who suf- fer tnder this damnable “Jim Crow” system, thank you for your stand and Interest in keeping down its accursed head in Ohio. Your nomination re. futes that old mean suggestion that the north has uo more Interest in the Negro thy in the south. The north has nomifted the Negro who always stands by i> people in all things and who does not bend the knee to Baal. It is an evidence of the appreciation of the people for a man who has the courage of right and just convictions. Such nominations are evidences that the republican party {s the party for our people.

He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Rosa Johnson, president of the State Woman's Mite Missionary society of the A. M. E. church. Ernest O. Orshun spent a few days in the city with relatives, en route from Chicago to Raleigh, N. C., where he will have charge of the vocal music and discipline of the young men students at St. Augustine school for the present session. Because he was discriminated against on account of his color Ernest H. Burke began suit for $500 damages against A. F. McDonald (white) in the common pleas court Wednesday. McDonald has a restaurant in the Williamson building. The concert given by the Knights of Friendship last Friday evening was a great success. Mrs. Renfro won the gold watch, having sold $23.25 worth of tickets. Mrs. Sisco sold $18.75 worth. The prize waltz was won by Mrs. Hall and Dick Smith. The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of an invitation to attend the wedding of Hon. E. H. Deas and Beulah A. Gordon at Darlington, S. C. October 8. They will be "at THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1905. home" there after October 17. Mr. and Mrs. Deas will visit in Washington, D.C., between the 36th and the 17th.

You know why—every Afro-American ought to have an on sale across the street from Goodman's at Tompinson's news store, next to Mill's grocery store, corner Central and Sterling avenues. Tell your friends and acquaintances to go to Tompinson's. Last Wednesday evening Mrs. Frank Shoecraft, of Berlin street, entertained the chair of Cory chapel. Thursday evening the members of the church tendered their pastor, Rev. R. L. Dickerson, a pleasant surprise. Social games were played and everyone enjoyed themselves thoroughly. After refreshments were served F. W. Corbin made a neat speech, to which Rev. Dickerson made a pleasing reply. Hon. M. G. Comings, of Oberlin; Hon. Harry C. Smith, W. H. Boyd, Esq., and Gov. M. T. Herrick were the speakers in the order named at the exceptionally large meeting of the Comings. Four of the republican clubs held in the Tippacane club rooms in the Masonic building Wednesday evening. All were enthusiastically received by the big audience. Hon. W. T. Clark made a splendid presiding officer as usual. The editor of The Gazette addressed about 3,000 people at Junction Park, between New Brighton and Rochester, Pa., last week Friday afternoon. The occasion was a union celebration of Emancipation proclamation by the towns of Beaver valley—Beaver Falls, Rochester, New Brighton, Beaver and a couple of other smaller towns. Mr. Rochester, an campaign opening at Bellefonte, Our people of Greenville, O., also wanted him to speak for them on the 23d. Rev. Ira A. Collins, who pastored St. John's church years ago, married again about a year ago. His wife was Mrs. Edward Coates, of Springfield. He was fortunate in getting another excellent church worker. Before her first marriage she taught seven years in the public schools of Evansville, Ind., and is quite proficient as a teacher. He is be of great service to her husband in pastoring the large membership in St. John's. Rev. Collins will occupy the pulpit Sunday morning and evening. The faculty of the Woman's Friendly Institute has been further augmented by the addition of Misses Mabel Griffin and Catherine Fletcher, Miss Fletcher taking charge of the classes in millinery, Miss Griffin those in domestic arts and domestic science. Both Miss Griffin and Miss Fletcher will be in the office this week and will be visiting the firm before beginning September 25. Tuition will be $1.00 per month in domestic arts and science; $2.00 per month in millinery. Read carefully the advertisement in another column. The 19-year-old boy who stabbed an old man in a saloon on Orange street, corner Wadsworth street, has not as yet been caught. The facts in this case as they come to us are that the lad was shaking dice with the bartender when one of the dice rolled against an old man's arm, who became angry and made some remark about the "black devil." The boy skipped him. When attacked he ran followed by two other men—the old man's son, 30 years of age, and another older man. The boy was overtaken in a backroom and in the tussle that followed he stabbed father and son, the old man dying a few days later. An "Autumn Festival of the Senses" will be held at Mt. Zion Congregational church, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, October 4 and 5. A fine concert, under the direction of Mrs. Mabel Lewis Imes, a "missing man" with a handful of money for his caper, three prize voting contests and a gypsy queen in the hearing booth, will be the attractions for the first night. On the second night there will be drills and paces by the little folks, directed by Mrs. Curtis W. Cufford, with another handful of money to give away, more prize voting contests and other enjoyable features. Two pleasant and entertaining evenings are promised those who attend. Mr. Charles W. Chessnutt has written a characteristic dedication for his new book, "The Colonel's Dream," just issued by Doubleday, Page & Co., New York. He says: "To the great number of those who are seeking in whatever manner or degree from near at hand or far away to bring the forces of enlightenment to bear upon the vexed problems which harass the south, this volume is inscribed with the hope that it may contribute to the same good end. If there be no more pain in heavier life, if there be love in love nor faith nor hope nor disappointment nor sorrow. Yet life is not the less worth living because of any of these nor has any man truly lived until he has tasted of them all." Rev. S. L. Joly's Defi! Philadelphia, Pa.—"I am socially as good as any white men here." Aroused by the attitude of the Methodist Episcopal church south, which desires to unite with the Methodist Episcopal church on condition that the color line is drawn, the Rev, Storer L. Joly, an Afro-American minister of Atlantic City, made this statement on the 20th before the Methodist ministers. "Since God Almighty has not held us responsible for the color of our skin," he continued, "I don't see why it should be criticised by the church. This prejudice on the part of the church south makes it harder than ever to save the black man: first we have to prove that God is with him, and that the Methodist Episcopal church is also with him." A Great Success. Rochester, Pa.—The Emancipation celebration held at Junction park last week Friday was quite a success. The address of Hon. Harry C. Smith was highly appreciated by a large and very attentive audience. Quite a number from Youngstown, New Castle, Sewickley, Liverpool and Pittsburgh were present and also attended the dance in the evening given by the Excelsior club.-Mr. A. Hodgstet is able to be out.-Mrs. Johnston, of Bellehra, is visiting her father, Rev. Wilkes, of West, Bridgeswater.

The owner was Andrew Randall at Shanty (now Kennesaw), Georgia, on the Western & Atlantic Railroad, April 12th, 1862, and was recaptured by Conductor W. A. Fuller, Anthony Murphy and others, near Ringgold, Ga., after an exciting chase of about ninety miles. It was one of the most thrilling exploits of the Civil War. The object of the raid was to capture the train from the Atlantic Railroad and cut off the Confederate Army from its base of supplies.

POOLE BROTHERS Ballway Printers CHICAGO --- PAINFUL PERIODS The Case of Miss Irene Crosby Is One of Thousands of Gures Made by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. How many women realize that men- struction is the balance wheel of a woman's life, and while no woman is entirely free from periodical suffering, they are also the ones that women should suffer so severely. Miss Irene Crosby Thousands of American women, however, have found relief from all monthly suffering by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as it is the most thorough female regulation known to medical science. It cures the condition which causes so much discomfort and robs menstruation of its terrors. Miss Irene Crosby, of 313 Charlton Street East Savannah, Ga., writes: "Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is a fast food and tow wrap. It has best of great benefit to me, curing me of irregular and painful menstruation when everything else had failed, and I gladly recommend it to other suffering women." Pinkham is troubled with painful or irregular menstruation, backache, bloating (or flatulence), leucorrhea, falling, inflammation or ulceration of the uterus, ovarian troubles, that "bearing-down" feeling, dizziness, faintness, indigestion, nervous prostration or the blues, should take our consequences, and be restored to perfect health and strength by taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and then write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass., for further free advice. Thousands have been cured by so doing. It is not always the pessimist who takes the worst view of everything. There is the amateur photographer—Life. Good housekeeper uses the best. That's why they buy Red Cross Ball Blue.

The scene is a drug store, in a busy part of Broadway. When the action opens a pretty woman is demurely turning over the leaves of the city directory, entering the store. Enter an irresistible old man, who wants to find the address of a fellow who owes him money. He stands and waits impatiently, filling in the time by coughing suggestively. He asks a man in a hurry follows. He wants to know where John Brown lives. It is in the next street, but he has forgotten the number. He falls in hime. Then a man who seeks some city official, but knows nothing of his office, except that it closes within a few minutes, joins the ranks of the waiters. He waltzes to consult the directory gather around. Still the woman placially turns leaf after leaf over, without evident intention to decide whether the name she seeks is Brown, When there are fully half a score fumig, impatient people in line, enter a newspaper reporter. His mission will position himself to assist the woman suggesting his experiences may tend to save time and lessen her labor. When he asks her what she seeks, with a sweet smile of thankful appreciation, she says: "You are very kind, I am trying to find a really sweet, pretty name for my new baby!" SALT RHEUM ON HANDS. Suffered Agony and Had to Wear Bandages All the Time—Another Cure by Cuticura. Another cure by Cuticura is told of by Mrs. Caroline Cable, of Waupaca, Wia, in the following grateful letter: "My husband suffered agony with salt rheum on his hands, and I had to keep them bandaged all the time. We tried everything, but nothing, help him until he used Cuticura. One set of Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills cured him entirely, and his hands have been as smooth as possible ever since. I do hope this letter will be the means of helping some other sufferer."

South Bend, Ind., Sept. 25th (Special), —After suffering from Kidney Disease for three years; after taking treatment from six different doctors without getting it right, O. Lawrence of Ipswich found not only relief, but a speedy and complete cure in Dodd's Kidney Pills. Speaking of his cure, Mr. Laudeman says: "Yes I suffered from Kidney Trouble for three years. I was not good. Then I took just two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills, and they not only cured my kidneys, but gave me better treatment. I was not to do so, mended Dodd's Kidney Pills to others, and I know a number now who are using them with good results." My Laudeman said it not an exception. Thousands give similar experiences.

DEPEW WAS A PARTICIPANT Assistant Secretary Winthrop States that Sums Aggregating $92,000, the Company's Profits in Syndicate Transactions, Have Disappeared. New York, Sept. 28.—Yesterday's session of the legislative committee to investigate insurance methods was given over to the matter of syndicate transactions of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. Henry R. Winthrop, assistant secretary and financial secretary, was on the witness stand and many of his statements were accompanied by typewritten documents giving the various transactions in detail. It was brought out that in one of these syndicates Senator Depew was a participant to the extent of $100,000 and the senator was requested to appear before the committee. An astounding revelation was made when Mr. Winthrop declared that various sums that had been paid to the Equitable, amounting in all to $24,933, had disappeared. There is no record of the final resting place of the money. These checks were supposedly for profits in syndicate transactions. Expert accountants are now trying to trace the sums. The checks were for $23,919, $21,900, $22,600 and $14,074 respectively. The first item of $23,919 went astray in August, 1896. Henry Greaves, who was a clerk for George H. Squire, formerly a member of the finance committee, was called to supply some information regarding the "George H. Squire trustee" account, and from him it was learned that there were a number of these accounts. There was, beside the "George H. Squire trustee" account, the "cellus Hartley trustee" account, and another, "the J. W. Alexander trustee" account. Mr. Greaves produced the bank book of the Squire account, and by means of it Mr. Hughes tried to trace amounts that would correspond to profits to this account; but the witness could not remember the items of the amounts deposited. Mr. Greaves gave way temporarily to Mr. Winthrop while Mr. Hughes queried further regarding syndicates. Mr. Winthrop was asked to furnish a list of the individual participants in syndicates, and said that President Morton was preparing such a statement. Mr. Winthrop said that in the Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington and Long Island fours syndicate, managed by Kuhn, Loeb & Co., there were two participants, one of $500,000, the other of $100,000. The society derived profits of $2,386 on the $100,000, while J. W. Alexander, J. H. Hyde, G. H. Squire and W. H. McIntyre divided the profits on the $500,000. The Equitable put up $218,100. It has received no payment, the board has been returned, and when asked if the matter had been called to the attention of these gentlemen, Mr. Winthrop said "It will be." A DESPERATE DUEL. An Express Messenger and a Former Friend Battled in an Express Car—Both Are Probably Fatally Hurt. Decatur, Ill., Sept. 28.—John E. Ryan, of Chicago, Pacific express messenger on Wabash passenger train No. 13, and Edward Greene, also of Chicago, a former express messenger, fought with pistols in Ryan's car yesterday. Both were seriouslyounded and may die. On arrival here Ryan was taken to the Wabash hospital and Greene to St. Mary's hospital. Conflicting stories are told by the combatants. Greene says that he got on the express car at Forty-seventh street, Chicago, intending to go to his home at Pittsfield to visit his relatives. He was an old friend and Ryan, Greene says, permitted him to ride. Greene says he assisted Ryan with that task. Ryan with that task began drinking. Jokes led to a quarrel and Greene says he and Ryan drew pistols at the same time. Ryan's story is that he did not see Greene in the car until the train reached Cerro Gordo. Believing that Greene jumped in for the purpose of robbery, Ryan fired at him. According to Ryan they clinched and both of them, with revolvers drawn, rolled about on the car floor. Finally separating, each sought shelter in the car and waited for the other to expose himself. Just as the train was near Decatur, Ryan says, he and Greene fired and both went down, but were on their feet in a short time and the duel continued until the train reached the outskirts of Decatur, when Greene opened a door and jumped from the car. Greene was unable to run and was found an hour later by the police. Greene and another officer in the car and another in the right lung, while a third ball is in the fleshy part of the abdomen. Ryan was shot in the left jaw, in the left ear and in the left shoulder. Taft Returns.

Should Either England or Japan Become Involved in a War, the Other Party Will at Once Come to the Assistance of Its Ally. London, Sept. 27.—The text of the Anglo-Japanese treaty signed August 12 was issued from the foreign office last evening, together with a dispatch to the British ambassador at St. Petersburg forwarding a copy of the agreement, with instructions to communicate it to the Russian government at the earliest opportunity. The treaty contains eight clauses and a long preamble. The latter states that the object of the treaty is the maintenance of general peace in Asia and India and the preservation of the interests of all the powers in China by insuring the integrity of China and the principle of equal opportunity for the commerce of all nations, the maintenance of the territorial rights of Great Britain and Japan in Eastern Asia and India and the defense of their special interests therein. The text of the treaty is as follows: "Article 1—It is agreed that whenever in the opinion either of Great Britain or Japan any of the rights and interests referred to in the preamble to this agreement are in jeopardy, the parties should consider the measures with another fully and frankly and will consider in common the measures which should be taken to safeguard those menaced rights or interests. "Article 2—Should either of the high contracting parties be involved in war in defense of its territorial rights or special interests, the other parties should consider of its ally and both parties will conduct a war in common and make peace in mutual agreement with any power or powers involved in such war. "Article 3—Japan possessing paramount political, military and economic interests in Korea, Great Britain recognizes Japan's right to take such measures for the guidance, control and protection of Korea as she may deem proper to safeguard and advance those interests, providing the measures so taken are not contrary to the principle of equal opportunities for the commerce and industry of all nations. "Article 4—Great Britain, having a special interest in all that concerns the security of the Indian frontier, Japan recognizes her right to take such measures in the proximity of that frontier as she may find necessary for safeguarding the position of Japanese interests. The pithy articles of the official text bring forcefully the tremendous importance to both countries of this alliance, which practically makes Great Britain Japan, and Japan Great Britain for the purpose of defense "in the regions of East Asia and India." AN INSURANCE MERGER It Appears to Have Been a Bad Thing for the Policy Holders in 28 Small Companies. Chicago, Sept. 27.—Investigation of the affairs of the Western Life Indemnity Co. by a state examiner yesterday brought to light facts tending to show that claims of perhaps thousands of policy holders in assessment companies have been practically wiped out through company manipulations. Examiner Lucius Frouts discovered that 28 small insurance companies have terminated their existence by merging into the Western Life Indemnity Co. "That means," said the examiner, "that the policy holders of the original companies have gone through a process which leaves them practically uninsured, although they are still paying their premiums and have been doing so for years. This condition is not particularly the fault of the Western or other absorbing companies, for the absorption is done according to law." Charges that the company was being "milked dry" were made at the hearing before Judge Kohlsaat by Attorney Levinson for the complaining policy holders. "The company is paying money on its contracts," said Mr. Levinson, "and is being milked dry. It has issued a statement giving its assets as $917,000 on May 1. Now the assets are $300,-. Levinson said he had been told by Mr. Long, formerly attorney for the company, that the concern had paid the claim of a bank said to be involved in the $125,000 deal between President Rosenfeld and Promoter Gray. "The company may transact ordinary business, but the assets may not be used for anything except to pay death claims," ruled Judge Kohlsaat. Mr. Levinson asked a restraining order to prevent the company from receiving the compensation of the hearing. He also asked that Mr. Rosenfeld's salary of $2,000 a month be discontinued for the time. Both requests were refused. A Typhoon Strikes Manila. New York, Sept. 27.—The Sun has a dispatch from Manila reporting a destructive typhoon in that city. The native districts were swept away, 8,000 persons are homeless and five Filipinos were killed and 200 people injured. Passenger Cars Must be Screened. Jackson, Mias, Sept. 27.—At a conference of the state board of health and the governor yesterday an ordinance was adopted requiring that all passenger coaches used in the state must be closely screened. Doctors Advise an Exodus. Natchez, Miss., Sept. 27.—The local yellow fever situation is becoming serious and physicians have advised all people who can to leave the city. Five new cases were reported Tuesday, of which two were white. One death was reported. Middies are Quarantined. Annapolis, Md., Sept. 27.—On account of the prevalence of typhoid fever and diphtheria at the naval academy a rigid quarantine has been established and no midshipmen are allowed to leave the grounds. HOW A FRIENDSHIP GREW The Story Whether Hand Sapollo got a more enthusiastic welcome in homes where Sapollo was an old and tried friend, or where it was a stranger, is a question. Where women had come to rely on Sapollo for rapid, thorough cleaning in every part of the house except the laundry, they commenced without loss of time, to avail of this new prize. Grubby little hands, and stained, workworn older ones, whitened, softened, and smoothed out as if by magic, calous spots disappeared, and complexions cleared. Children ceased their strenuous objections to the scrubbing up process, because it became a Do you want a clear and healthy skin? pleasure. It freshened up the hands after dish-washing, removing the most disagreeable feature of that necessary task. It was found to keep delicate baby skins from chating better than salve or powder, and the crowning note in the song of delight came when an adult member of the family used it in a full bath, and realized that a Turkish Bath at a cost of one dollar was outdone by a small fraction of the little, ten-cent, velvety cake. But, strange though it may seem, there were people who had not learned to prize Sapolio. To these the advertising of Hand Sapolio came as a surprise.

Who ever heard of such a use? Finally a bold shopper carried home a cake. Does it look like kitchen Apollo? No one is sure, and a cake of that is bought, and comparison made. Behold a family using both the Apollo for every conceivable purpose, and comparing notes! After easily and quickly cleansing a greasy pan with Apollo, Jane thought the other would be grilty, and was astonished at the smooth, dainty lather.

Then began the excitement of adventure; what would the new soap NOT do? A girl tried a shampoo. Her hair, pretty, soft and silky "went up" perfectly, with none of the unmanageableness that generally exists for a full week after the usual process. A man used the delightful lather for shaving, and felt no need for cold cream afterwards. A plimply face was treated to a daily bath-full suds, and cameclear.

TRY HAND SAPOLIO. Its steady use will keep the hands of any busy woman as white, unattractive as if she was under the constant care of a city manicure. It is truly "The Dainty Woman's Friend," in the suburbs or on the farm. Those ugly dark brown streaks on the neck, arising from tight collars, and the line where the sunburn stops, can be wiped out by the violently hitherto of HAND SAPOLIO. It is, indeed, "The Dainty Woman's Friend." INGENUITY EXTRAORDINARY Boat Adrift Is Recovered in a Manner That Was Truly Remarkable. "Yes," said the narrator of the story, according to the Chicago Tribune, "we got into the boat and rowed out to the island, eight miles away, and then we climbed up the hill to get the view. Along about the coast we went to beach and to our consternation discovered that the boat had become loose from its moorings and had drifted across the bay to the other side. "Wasn't that awful?" exclaimed the girl with the sympathetic eyes. "Yes. There we were, eight miles from the mainland, with no means of communicating with our friends." "Were you?" said the girl with the dropstitch waist. "What were we to do?" "What, indeed!" echoed the girl with the fuzzy psyche knot. "What, we went to the mainland, the day drawing to a close, no food, no shelter, and no way of getting word to our friends. How were we to get that boat over the yawning waste of water that separated us from shelter and com- "But you are here now, so you must have got the boat at last," said the girl with the calm, self-controlled expression.

The Erie Railroad has arranged for the immediate expenditure of $222,000 for the installation of the most modern and efficient railway signal that has yet been installed in the Erie Railroad Hall Electric Semaphore Normal Clear System, and is operated by stationary storage batteries. The line between Bergen, Montana, and Idaho has three miles, is to be equipped at distances. For the first 32 miles, the signals will be put two-thirds of a mile apart; for the rest of the distance, about one and one-third miles, the signals will be placed plants for charging the batteries, which will be located at Rutherford Junction, Ridgewood Junction, Suffern, Oxford and Burlington, and two and four tracks at different places, and is the most congested part of the Erie System. Hitherto a manual block, which is a tower with signals operated by a control system, has been installed, but it has been deemed best to install an automatic system for further protection, and to accelerate the movement of trains. The new system will be extended over the entire line in the future. The average wage-earner who has paid her rent, the grocer's bill, and bought a "predecible minimum." - Washington Post, W.
