THE Concerning What Is to Be Worn Every once in awhile we feel like agreeing with, "Give me the luxuries and I will dispense with the necessary;" and this is our mood to-day. Let us speak of the luxuries of dress first, the sheerest of nonsense. Under this definition the draping veil comes easily. It has no real use, it is just a "pretty." And of a truth it is often very presentable, makes a charming illusory cloud about a woman's face. Alas, more often 'tis but a rag that reminds us of Kipling's unlovely description of woman—"Arag a bone and a hank of hair." We'll try to say all the good words for the draping veil we can. After being voted common and relegated to the A PRETTY WRAPPER. background, it is again in high favor. It comes in delicate colors, and looks very pretty toning in with a costume; we have rosy clouds with the ruby-red gown; gray-blue filimess with the blue costume, and a black gown and wrap has a vell of fashionable black and white. It is not alone the automobile lady that winds the yards and yards about her headgear, not alone the carriage woman that defly places a smaller quantity over her hat; no, it is not relegated to those that ride in chaises and motor car, every one may disport the faunting veil. The fashion is one that bids fair to appeal to all, to be adopted by all. To jump from his indoor wear to his outdoor wear as well make a big jump—so as far as negligee apparel. Such pretty fall and winter house gowns and sacks as the dealers are now tempting us with. There is one fine henrietta wrapper in delicate blue that seems to us the best of all, its trimming not on the cheap and show order usually marking, ready-made articles of this sort. There is about it not a smidgen of lace, the ornamentation just eyelet embroidery done on the material. Of this there is a deep col- Fall Furs and Feathers Feathers and furs, feathers and furts, and that's the way my lady goes nowadays. Her fur coat probably is not so very long. And Why? Because pelts are frightfully expensive this year—she simply cannot afford anything but a short wrap. But she need not be troubled thereby, because the short fur coats this season are most attractive; the makers have done their utmost to concoct something with style, something not bungling; and they have succeeded admirally. We find the fur Eton continuing in vogue, many fur box-coats, and a few long, ample wraps. Sleeves keep to the leg-of-mutton in the short jackets, and broad shoulders prevail here. There are gay little vests on most of the new models, the exception is the untrimmed coat. Braid, velvet, buttons and embroidery are used for ornamentation, generally with good effect, no fussiness. But we confess we like a beautiful fur quite as well absolutely untrimmed. In high-priced garments we find the following fashionable furs: Chinchilla, ermine, mink and sable. An ermine neckpiece costs quite a lot when one considers how little quantity one gets for one's money, but it gives an air to a costume that is unmistakable. Neckpiece this year do not differ so very much from those of last, and one piece can be worn in several ways; the wearer may put the center in the front, cross it over at the back, bring it round again forward; or she may fasten it simply at one side. Muffs are larger than ever, if that is possible—it was just about four years ago, was it not, we saw Maude Adams on the stage carrying a muff that almost concealed her slender figure; and now they are bigger than that! Fur-lined garments are more to the fore than they have been in years; one can get one very cheaply, too. Black clothland fur-lined wraps fill the windows; many are very desirable. We mention certain models recently on display on some of the best shops. There was a beautiful saelskin a scant three-quarters long, with moderately sized sleeves a little over three-quarters in length. There were revers and tuffs of rable, the revers cross on th breast, a part of the revers a collar, made so it could be turned up high when needed. The finishing touch to this exquisite garment was an embrol- lar and a narrow border at the hem. I believe the wrapper may be obtained in all the delicate colors, and as a herietta washes well it is quite right to indulge in the fascinating light colors. On a dull winter's day we want to be reminded of summer beauty; and in our overheated houses we may with safety don the thin wools. Alabatross is extensively employed for house gowns, there are both wrappers and sacks of this material. One neat sack had scallops at the edges, the scallops button-holed in silk, and in each scallop a small embroidered flower. The model here illustrated is a morning wrapper of cream wool trimmed with insertions of Irish crochet lace. Much of the style of garments of this order hinges on the collar, and the deep pointed one here shown we consider unusually attractive. The elbow sleeves are the prettiest for such a negligee. Of course the individual taste should be followed in selection of color and trimmings. Let us penetrate even further into the privacy of dress, and for a moment consider the question of fashion in underclothes. In corset dress we notice a decided change; in conformity with a change in the corset itself and the growing favor of boned bodices. The garment worn over the corset is higher in the bust and higher in the neck—a change for the better surely. The mohair skirt with adjustable ruffle is coming to notice, and is highly satisfactory. Silk flouches ought to make it popular, and this the dealers have found out. For the too stout figure the jersey petticoat is offered, and it, too, has the attachable flounce; the jerseys come in both silk and wool. Returning to corset covers, we would mention a dainty one that had for trimming scallops in hand-work. Button-holling and seed-work are liked now much more than the one-time elaporation. If you would be strictly up-to-date, do not go in for be-laced and be-tucked underwear; it is quality to-day, not quantity. We are returning to the good old times of our mothers and grandmothers, when every girl herself worked the dainty stitches in chemise and nightgown. Now, what shall we jump to? Raiha coats seem deserving of mention, though really deserving of a chapter to themselves. The manufacturers of the ready-made ones—and there are excellent values to be obtained in these—realize that women want something becoming even for a rainy day; where fore there is evolved a shapely waterproof of good style. There is much variety of cut, and one of the novel ones is the Empire. A natty coat is in an Oxford mixture trimmed with green. And, by the way, the late coats have collar and cuff of contrasting materials. There is a box coat of very good cut this season; no one need look dowdy the rainy days of the coming winter. Recently we had our attention called to a very pleasing costume worn in the morning by a young girl. The skirt was plaid, a mixture of green and white, blended with softness rather than pronounced contrast. The blouse was of creamy white silk, and at the neck a tie of plaid silk. The color scheme in this was very good, and about the whole there clung a charming negligee air. dered vest of white cloth. A very sensible wrap and of good style was a fur-lined blue broadcloth with a roll collar and generous cuffs of dark fur. The coat was double-breasted, and finished at the bottom with several rows of tailor stitching. A smart seal coat was made with basques, the back of the coat, tight-fitting, the front blossoming a trifle; it was trimmed with a collar and revers of heliotrope velvet embroidered in silver, the buttons were of the silver-embroidered velvet, and ONE OF THE NEW HATS. ONE OF THE NEW HATS. set into the basque on each side was a small, semi-circular pocket daitatly embroidered. A very fetching broad-tail jacket came just to the waist line. It was edged with wide black silk braid, and trimmed with collar and cuffs of reseda cloth, delicately braided with fine silk cords in shaded colors. There was a Persian lamb coat, severe in its simplicity, the distinguishing feature marking it as modish being the habit style with cut-away fronts. But enough of furs, we look at use of the feathers. Our illustration pictures a hat which is one of the fashion's favorites. The coloring of the original of this was very soft and lovely, and most effective worn with rich furs. It was a pale gray felt, the crown of gray peau de suede embroidered in silver, the feathers shaded from white to deep grap. In Union There is Strength. ELLEN OSMONDE.

Every Negro of the country with one single spark of manhood in his makeup is pleased to know that you will once more occupy a seat in the Ohio legislature—Newport News (Va.) Star. We read with delight the recent honor conferred upon our friend Hon. H. C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland Gazette. He has been nominated for the fourth term in the Ohio legislature. Success to your brother Hairy—Urbana (O.) Informer. Bud Rogan, Tennessee's Afro-American giant, died in September at Gallatin. He was eight feet nine inches tall. His hands were 12 inches in length and feet 16½ inches. He was drawn around by two goats his legs being too slender to support his body. He was 36 years old.

Dammond, formerly of Detroit, an Afro-American, and assistant bridge engineer for the Michigan Central Railway, has invented a railway block signal which practically eliminates collisions on railways either between trains or with any kind of obstruction on the track. It is operated by means of electricity and is by far the most improved system of signalling now known. Throughout the entire address delivered by Booker T. Washington before his Negro Business league convention in Palm garden at New York city, there is not a single note of complaint against Negro disfranchisement, peonage, "Jim Crowism," lynchings and burnings now making the country a by-word and a hiss to the civilization of the world.-St. Louis (Mo.) Advance. It is reported on good authority in Washington that a body of mounted men rode to the vicinity of the residence of Dr. Booker T. Washington at Tuskegee, Ala., last Saturday night, fired three volleys into the house and rode away. Mr. Washington and family being absent no one was hurt. The information was conveyed in a private letter from Tuskegee and may be regarded as authentic. No cause was assigned, but the action is believed to be due to the Washington-Wannamaker dinner episode—Alexandria (VA.) Home News. The Cleveland Gazette has entered upon the twenty-third year of its existence, a patriarchial age for the New York newspaper to attain. During all this time it has never missed an issue and has several achievements to be proud of and of which the people of Ohio should be proud, that proves a fact, not given the weight it deserves, of the influence, potent influence, exerted by a well-edited, fearless and consistent race journal in any community. We congratulate The Gazette on its long and useful career and wish it abundant and deserved prosperity—Omaha (Neb.) Enterprise. The nomination of Hon. Harry C. Smith, the fearless editor of that great race paper, The Cleveland Gazette, for a fourth term in the Ohio legislature, is a deserved tribute to worth and ability. Editor Smith, ever on the alert for the good of the race, has been instrumental in placing upon the Ohio statute books numerous laws, designed primarily to safeguard the rights conferred by the war amendments, but whose remote effect has been almost to break up mobocracy in Ohio. Bro. Smith, accept the congratulations of the Conservator. That you may win out as triumphant. In the end as in this primetime skirmish the wish of all who know of your invaluable services.—Chicago (III) Conservation. A handsome showing made by Hon. Harry C. Smith in his recent contest, proves conclusively that true merit will win in most northern communities, and further proves our oft repeated contention that we have nothing to fear from wholesome primary election laws. What Mr. Smith has done against great odds in Cleve- land other Afro-Americans, pure of purpose and with strong intellects and forceful characters, may do in other communities and furnish abundant object lessons right here in the United States to prove our capabilities, not only as to self-government, but as constructive officials of this grand republic and giving the lie to our southern detractors—Detroit (Mich.) informer. The Cleveland (Ohio) Gazette is 23 years old. We congratulate it for having reached such an age, and sincerely hope it may never die. It is an honor to itself, its country, its state and its editor. It has fought many a battle and has always been victorious. The Gazette's editor has done more for his race than any other Negro in Ohio, and has always been a champion for suffering humanity. If there were thousands instead of one Harry Smith, this country could well be proud, for he is one of our most famous characters. In conclusion, we will say that The Gazette, like wine, grows better as it ages, and we hope that it will become more and more powerful as the years pass by—Martinsburg W. Va.) Pioneer Press. W. H. LEWIS, ESQ. Whom the President had Appointe. When we read and know of the success of Hon. Harry C. Smith, of Cleveland, O., we are free to confess that those lies the secret of the "Negro problem." Not because he is in politics, but because of his ability, faithfulness and patriotic spirit as a citizen. Three times he has been nominated for the legislature and just as many times has he been elected, and now the republicans of Cuyahoga county have for the fourth time extended to him the honor of representing them in the next legislature, which equates to election. In the legislature no member of that representative body had more friends or was better liked than Mr. Smith. He is a man that you can depend upon, honest and fair-minded—Owensboro (Ky.) Reporter. Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland & Georgia, Ohio's most famous colored newspaper, has just won his fourth nomination as state representative, the only Afro-American in the north to ever do so. No convention was held—twas just a popular vote primary. There were 23 candidates for seven places and among them were three Afro-American Mr. Smith got the second highest vote and nearly as many as the two Afro-Americans candidates' vote combined. Mr. Smith also got a higher vote than 18 of the 20 white candidates. Eighteen thousand republicans voted at the primary. There are 60,000 in the county, only 3,500 of whom are Afro-Americans. Editor Smith's election is assured. He stood second in 1899; he was the first African-American record! Hurrah for Harry C. Smith—Martinsburg (W. Va.). Pioneer Press. We have received the good news that Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor and proprietor of The Gazette, Cleveland, O., has been nominated for the fourth time as a candidate for member of the lower branch of the Ohio legislature, which is an equivalent to election. Mr. Smith represents a district the voting population of which is 60,000 only 3,500 of which are colored. This not only speaks well for Mr. Smith, but it speaks well for the white republicans in ceding some rights to the colored voters. When white men learn to respect and honor men according to their pity and for their sake, Mr. Smith has been successful in introducing and securing the passage of several important measures in the legislature among them being the anti-lynch law, which has been copied by Kansas and is a law on our statute book. Mr. Smith is a thorough business man, a journalist, scholar and an all-round progressive citizen—Topeka (Kan.) Plain Dealer. Hon. Harry C. Smith, of The Cleveland, O., Gazette, is one of the ablest Afro-Americans in the union and all of us are glad to know when honors come his way. Besides the victory is a signal one for manhood. Mr. Smith never bends the cringent knee for favors at the hands of any one. There were only seven places for the city (and four for the county outside of the city) and Mr. Smith came out second of 23 candidates. Mr. Smith was author of the bill which forces a county to pay an indemnity to the family of a person lynched and the one man in Ohio who has forced the railroads to keep him. Crow cars out the town to keep him. Crow cars out the argument that white people are opposed to Negroes in office in the north, for it was white men's votes which most largely nominated him and thus endorsed the manly stand Mr. Smith has always taken for our race. The Press is particularly gratified and extends its congratulations to our friend.-Mobile (Ala.) Press. September 7, at the republican primaries in Cuyahoga county, the subject of Hon. Harry C. Smith demonstrated his fitness for front rank in politics by overwhelming all opposition and winning fourth nomination as state representative. Mr. Smith's success is another striking example of what the Negro can accomplish by winning a seat with veto to integrity. Whenever the rights of the race are assailed Editor Smith can be found at his post of duty. He made an international reputation for himself by his advocacy of an anti-lynch law and measure directed against other "Jim Crow" laws that were obnoxious to the extent that decent Negroes would froth at the mouth upon mention of them. He is a man of fine education and training, therefore fully qualified to fill the position to which he aspires with credit. That every Negro and other friends of the race in Cuyahoga county will give him the support at the polls in November to be elected to the Standard—Columbus (O.) Standard. John L. Boardman, of Macon, Ga., a cousin of J. Pierpoint Morgan, left a will, which is being probated, in which he bequeathed $25,000 to a colored woman. The will is being contested. Continued on Second Page Mary C. Whom the President had Appointed a Deputy U. S. District Attorney. Detroit, Mich.-What is regarded as the best speech at the recent meeting here of the National Afro-American council was delivered by W. H. Lewis, of Boston, Mass, an assistant United States district attorney, the only member of the race in the country holding such a position. Mr. Lewis said in part, as strongly and clearly as language can express it: "Let us first give the south and the nation to understand that the colored man will never accept a caste position in this country. We will keep our place—the place of American citizens, but no other. The south may terrorize over us, proscribe or murder us if they please, but we will never cease to contend for all the rights of state and national citizenship. We long for peace; we long to see our rights beyond the pale of discussion; but we will never surrender the precious heritage of American citizenship." The hopefulness of the council was well-voiced by Mr. Lewis in this wise: "Weak or inferor, backward or forward, we do not intend to cry baby, or ask the American people for quarter; all we ask is that which our noble president, Theodore Roosevelt, who is leading the van of public opinion for the war, will give our nation of treatment for the Negro—all that we ask is a 'square deal'—no more, no less. I believe that in the end we shall obtain it. Over the present gulf of despair my faith soars serene in the goodness of God and the justice of my countrymen. With the general advance in civilization and culture, the southern people will obtain a better life than the northern people to humanity of which they are a part. There will come a realization of Tennyson's beautiful dream: 'Of knowledge fusing class with class, of civile hate no more to be, of love to leaven all the mass, Till every soul be free.'

Cleveland, Saturday, Oct. 7, 1905. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. OUR DUTY. Mrs. Albion W. Tourgee expects to sail for America on Saturday, November 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 November 13. So much honor was accorded Judge Tourgee in a foreign land when he died, four months ago, that we sincerely trust his own countrymen—especially those to whose advancement he gave so much of his life work—will feel to show their appreciation of a man of whom they may all be proud, when these last rites are performed in his native land. All arrangements for these will be in the hands of M. A. Porter, undertaker, Mayville, Chautauqua county, N. Y. COUNCIL PLEADING FOR WASHINGTON. In a recent address to his excellency, Hon. W. D. Jelks, governor of Alabama, Prof. W. H. Council pleads forcibly and pathetically with the governor to offer protection to Professor Booker T. Washington as a resident of Alabama. Shocking indeed! that a free citizen' under the great American republic must be forced to ask friends to invoke the interposition of a governor to save him from assault and assassination or that he must ask to be allowed to remain at home. Booker T. Washington has committed no offense against the laws of Alabama. He has done nothing to deserve banishment from his home. The offense, most provoking, comes from Alabama that a people so cowardly and unscrupulous should constrain a quiet and honored Afro-American to absent himself from his home. Why is this? Simply because Prof. Washington is identified with the Negro race. Now says Mr. Council: "Ever since the close of the war the best white people of the south have taught us to press forward and make the best we could of ourselves." If this be true we ask in all candoir, why this voluntary readiness to exile a citizen from his home and why this manifest determination to impose violence upon a man who has committed no wrong against the state, no wrong against public justice? Mr. Council has prostrated himself in the dust and ashes, beeaching the people of Alabama to stay the hand of violence from Booker T. Washington, well-nigh admitting the right of the people of Alabama to adopt strenuous action against Mr. Washington. But the people of Alabama are wrong and Prof. Council although conciliatory and submissive offers a compromise for which congress and the government are strictly responsible. The people of Alabama are responsible to the general government for each and all overt acts perpetrated under its laws and it is answerable for not being loyal. But Prof. Council lauds them as being very giants against whom congress and the nation are powerless to act. Not so, Mr. Council, and we are not to make a concession so long as our great political system holds supremacy over the states in this respect. Such concessions are detrimental to the union of the states even as in the days which brought on the struggle in 1861. Referring to the improvidence and crime of the race, Mr. Council forgets that such a reference but inflames the undespassions and prejudice of the very men to whom he now appeals in sycophantic language to shield the lamb from the slaughter of the wolf. We believe that the right way is the only sure way to rescue our people from harm and danger. The truth undisguised must be told to the people of the south, even though some of us may lose limb and life. The white people of the south may feel themselves flattered by the obsequious pleading of Normal Professor. But will it accomplish a real and substantial good for the race such as we so much desire as a lasting blessing to coming generations? The south must be taught to do its full duty to all men irrespective of races, and to deal not in cruelty but in the spirit of charity and love and after the methods and doctrine proclaimed in the declaration of independence and according to the ideas as promulgated in our free constitution and not according to the plans of the southern oligarchy. UNMITIGATED SELFISHNESS Tom Dixon in his mad freaks to gain exceptional distinction as the champion traducer of Afro-Americanes, betrays a spirit of unmitigated meanness in his attempt to degrade rather than elevate them. He openly and without reserve declares himself to be one of the best friends of our people, yet he says: "Were he the devil and owned hell he would not admit a Negro into its confines." What meaneth such declaration, if we are not to understand that he is the bitterest enemy to the race and to them he would show no quarter? Very assuredly he has expressed the true animus of his soul and with an intensity, that admits of no apology. He means all to which he has given utterance and he means defiance, hatred and eternal enmity. But now he confesses himself the "true friend" of the race. How can any man believe Tom Dixon? He is either friend or foe. He can not be regarded as the friend of Afro-Americanes, when he pursues them to the very gates of hell only to consign them to regions inconceivable far worse than anything to be mentioned. Tom Dixon can not now make any claim to friendship for the Afro-American. He declares that they are too worthless to deserve a place in hell. But now he appears in a Philadelphia magazine as the friend and advocate of the race, arguing that it is to their best interest to colonize themselves in parts of Africa. We are prepared now to show that Tom Dixon is a hypocrite and a man of very small calibre. He is mean enough to allow them no place in torment, yet he advises their colonization in Africa. This man is not the proper person to offer counsel for any race of people. He is not safe in advice, because he believes perdition is too ameliorating, and certainly is insincere in naming any portion of Africa as a desirable home. Eloquently and elaborately he philosophises to the American people as to the probabilities and possibilities of the race, under our governmental system, among white men. But Tom Dixon is very unreliable, for many things he now demands he once opposed, and puts himself in a double attitude before the people and in a light never before held by any public man. Most great and strong men show at least a vein of sympathy and humanity for whatever bears a human type, but this man has invaded the precincts of creation in presuming to scorn God's handwork. He ignores the moral nature of the Afro-American as an endowed element in common with all men and has sought to ingraft in the American mind a feeling of antipathy against the Negro in order to establish the theory of a growing hatred on the part of the whites against the blacks. In doing this, he reveals in his own nature an unmitigated selfishness and a disposition to injure and hauffle our people in the exercise and enjoyment of their just rights as American citizens. Not the American white people, but Tom Dixon, more than any man dead and living, aspires to defeat the Afro-American in the race for liberty and happiness. THE DELINEATOR With its new dress of color throughout the fashion and advertising sections, the November Dellineer presents a most attractive appearance. The autumn fashions have a large place in the number, being illustrated and described in detail and interpreted by such authorities of dress as Helen Berkeley-Loyd and Edouard La Fontaine. The table of contents contains, among its many features of interest, an article, the second of two, by Dr. William H. Maxwell, superintendent of schools, New York City, on "Education for Life Through Living," which describes the routine of a great public school. "A Run in Ireland" is a delightful travel sketch by Seumas MacManus, the well known Irish author. N. Hudson Moore writes of "Tables and Slideboards" in "The Collector's Manual," and "The Child's Dress" is the subject of Dr. Grace Peckham Murray's paper. "The Romance of a Gospel Singer," a timely contribution describing some inter-religious experiences of Charles Alexander, the revivalist. The Lucky-Albert, Pierre Bigelow Paine's novel which has been running in the magazine, is brought to an end in this number, and "At Spinster Farm," by Helen M. Winslow, is continued. A delightful story of boy life, "The Exaltation of William Henry," is from the pen of Herminie Templeton. There is a great deal of interest and value to housewives in the departments, and for the little folks stories and pastimes. A Judge, Blind in One Eye. Magnolia, Miss.--For the first time in the history of this county a white woman has been sentenced to the state penitentiary for intermarriage with a Negro. Bessie Perkins was given ten years in state prison Saturday for marrying and living with Ralph Brown. Judge Wilkinson, in passing sentence, sald he regretted the could not have been longer at trial. Indeed? The judge should once begin sentencing white men who are living with Negro women and this town and county will be depopulated nearly in 24 hours. Ohio K. of P.

(711) THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1905. THE END OF A DISGRACEFUL CHAPTER. If it is true, as reported, that the acquittal of another one of the men indicted for alleged complicity in the Springfield lynching of some months ago is to be the last of the matter, "fnisis" has been written at the end of a disgraced chapter in Ohio's history. The prolonged saturnalia of arson and murder that followed the outbreaks of the race war in that city has had few counterparts, at least in the north, and of these Ohio has had more than her proportionate share. As in most other cases the Springfield riots were made possible only by the complicity or politroony of both civil and military authorities charged with preserving the city who did not dare, for political or other reasons to defy a mistaken public sentiment that transformed the controlling portion of the population into active or passive enemies of law and order. Such wholesale disregard of plain duty has rarely been witnessed in any state, and it is peculiarly unfortunate that such an incident should have to be recorded to the discredit of Ohio. * * * The immunity enjoyed by members of the Springfield mob will have the certain result of encouraging others to do likewise, and will lead officials of other counties and cities to reflect that it is easier as well as safer to truckle to a murderous mob and cater to a diseased public opinion than to meet the former with bullets and the latter with defiance. Disorder grows by what it feeds on, and the lame and impotent conclusion of the Springfield incident, which was merely the latest of several such, is likely to bring nearer the day when it will be found necessary to do what should have been done at Springfield and elsewhere in Ohio—extinguish the flames of riot in the blood of the rioters.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. TWO "PLUMS." One Worth $1,200 a Year and the Other $1,500—Annihilate Germans. New York City - Julius M. Watson, third vice president of the Colored Republican club of New York City, and president of the 11th Assembly district club, has been appointed assistant deputy of elections for the metropolitan district in the office of the bureau of elections at $1,200 per year. Hon. Charles W. Anderson, collector of internal revenue, appointed J. A. Anderson a U. S. gauger at a salary of $1,500. J. A. Anderson is a bright, quiet, reliable young man, has been for some time a member of the Colored Republican club of New York City and is not a relative of the collector. He is a native of Canton, Miss. A special cable dispatch dated September 20, to the New York Sun from Cape Town, South Africa, reports that the Germans have met with another disaster in Southwest Africa. Gen. von Throtha, the German commander, was conducting a sweeping movement against the rebellious Witbels tribe, when the latter evaded the German columns, doubled back and attacked the superior of the German troops near Klemtmanshoop. The escort was prised and practically annihilated. The native captured 1,000 cattle and 122 wagons laden with rifles and ammunition. Another Here! New York City—One Afro-American was killed and three were probably fatally injured in the terrible accident on the elevated railroad recently. Mrs. James G. Grove, through whose apartment at 798 Ninth avenue the passengers of the third car made their escape, tells vividly of the feat of an Afro-American hero: "A Negro caught my attention," said she, "with a deed worthy of another age. A young girl managed to squirm from the car, and then feed widly along the elevated structure. She was just preparing to leap to the roof, and the Negro grinned her picked her up in his arms and climbed down a pillar with her. When they reached the street in safety the girl fainted and was taken in charge by the ambulance surgeons. The Negro then fung himself grandly into the rescue work." From the Southland Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 26, 1905. My Dear Mr. Smith and Friend: Nothing more highly pleases me than to learn of your renomination for a fourth term in the Ohio legislature. We need our best men in every field of duty and the millions of our race ought to rejoice that their faithful and watchful defender has been again so deservedly honored by the popular vote. All right minded men, as well as those of our race, who love the great principles which you have so nobly espoused do congratulate you. The compliment comes to you from the true and loyal sons of either race. Onward chieftain to the highest goal, "Pause not in thy flight till every cause is won, 'till every land is bright." Devotedly yours for God and humanity. B. K. Sampson Franklin Pa Items Mr. Geo.

Woman Heiress. Philadelphia, Pa.-By the will of her uncle, Warren C. Coleman, who died at Concord, N. C., last April Mrs. Charlotte Anne Cobbs, of 108 East Stafford street, Germantown, is made the joint heir with Warren C. Coleman, jr., to his estate valued at over $500,000. Mrs. Cobbs went south and found that she would receive something over $250,000. Coleman was born a slave, but after the war went into the cotton business. Six years ago he sold out and entered the real estate business, owning at the time of his death over 100 houses in Concord. He left no children. DOINGS AND SAYINGS (Continued from First Page.) It was brought out in the testimony that Boardman "had long been under the influence of the woman," and that he had been "eccentric concerning her." The usual "eccentricity" of the southern white man for some colored woman. In a decision wiley down in his court, Ordinary Wiley allowed the will to be propated as filed with the exception of the eighth provision, which makes a bequest to the colored woman, the section of the will over which the fight was waged. He further gives the opinion that the woman used undue influence on Boardman and that such a will was against public policy. Judge W. D. Nottingham, counsel for the woman, will appeal the case to the superior court. In the higher courts outside of Georgia, the will will be sustained and the woman will eventually get the money. Carry the news to Judge Wilkinson, of Magnolia, Miss. The Leader wishes to congratulate Editor Harry C. Smith, of the old and reliable Cleveland Gazette on his fourth nomination as state representative to the Ohio legislature, the first colored man in the north to secure this distinction. His nomination came to him not through a convention route, but by way of the popular vote primari, a sure test of a candidate's real place in the estimation and respect of his neighbors and community. There were seven places to be filled and 23 candidates to do the filling, three of whom were Afro-Americans. Mr. Smith went under the "wire" the second in the "bunch," and received quite as many votes as the other two colored candidates combined, not to mention a larger vote than 18 of the 20 white candidates opposed to him. There were 18,000 votes cast at the primaries and 60,000 republican voters in the county. Mr. Smith's election is assured, as by all the laws of the eternal fitness of things it should be, as Mr. Smith has at all times and places proved himself an uncompromising race champion and advocate, because as a legislator equaled by few others in the state. His last triumph was a just reward to a faithful servant. The people of Ohio can be no more proud of him than the thousands beyond the boundaries of that great commonwealth.—Chtcg Ill. (III.) Leader. We are glad to note that Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Cleveland Gazette, has been nominated again for one of the republican representatives in the state legislature from Cuyahoga county. This makes the fourth time Mr. Smith has been nominated for the legislature, having been elected three times before, an honor and distinction never before accorded a colored man in any of the northern states. The nomination of Mr. Smith which is equivalent to an election is all the more significant when we consider that there were 23 candidates on the ticket for seven representatives from that county, and that he received second highest number of votes cast for any one candidate, and nearly as many votes as the other two colored candidates (Gordon) Mr. Smith was elected representative from that county in 1893, 1895 and 1899 serving in the law-making body of Ohio six years in all and his nomination for another term is a just recognition of his past service and a high compliment to his popularity. And the white people of Ohio as well as the colored are to be congratulated upon the excellent choice of the voters of his county. Mr. Smith will be an able representative of the people and he will safeguard their interest. His splendid past record foreshadows a great future career for him.-Xenia O. (O.) Standard. Ought to Have a Carnegie Hero Medal. Louisville, Ky.—As a result of entering the "Jim Crow" department, drinking, swearing and using all kinds of vulgar language, Alfred Ray was instantly killed about ten days ago and William Blaine was fatally shot; both are white. The trouble occurred on train No. 24 of the Louisville, Henderson & St. Louis railroad near Stephenville. The two men were drunk, wanted to break up the "Jim Crow" car and run things their own way. When the conductor (white) approached them for their fares, they became abusive and made the conductor "turn out." The Negro porter, a men's messenger, ran train, and being incensed over the use of such vulgar language in the presence of a highly respected colored lady, pulled out a 44 Colts improved and shot the men. A later report states that the conductor was run off the train, consequently was unable to give any, account of the tragedy. The porter and the colored lady are under arrest. Will Fight "Jim Crow" Cars. Nashville, Tenn.—Four large automobiles have been purchased by Dr. R. F. Bovid, president of our Penny Savings Bank for use in a new street line for Afro-Americans. A company, recently incorporated as the Union Transportation Co., with a capital of $25,000 will then run as a sort of self-protection against the treatment which our people receive on the street railways in this city, where we are by state law permitted only to sit in certain separate seats, and conductors have power of police to remove us even from those seats if they see fit. To Colonize San Domingo Dulut, Minn. — The American Northwest is colonizing Santo Domingo. Congressman J. A. Bede and P. N. Nelson, of Duluth, a representative of Gov. Herrick, of Ohio, a man from Minneapolis, and one or two others, representing a syndicate largely composed of Duluth and Minneapolis men, are now on their way to Santo Domingo. If things are found as expected the syndicate will purchase 200,000 or 300,000 acres which are now under option and become a large factor in the development of the island. Lyncher Arrested. Mobile, Ala.—Barzil Loftin (white), one of the fiends who shot to death and then burned the body of an Afro-American near Sumner, Miss. has been captured at Sunflower, Miss.

Wash the hair with soap and water apply Curl-I-Cure twice a day for a week or two days, rubbing it in every stif hair brush. The more you brush the hair will check in perfect conditions. Carefully follow above directions and straight hair is absolutely so. LINCOLN CHEMICAL more you breach the hull with a self-fit hairbrush, the pressure you will feel is greater than with a professional brush. CURL-I-CURE is in tension and will not damage the hair. It is better to use a CURL-I-CURE when using the hair with water and let it drizzle dry. Do this only before the hair is dry for water or let it rest, then brush the hair and make sure the hair is not drizzled.

That our local readers may see how Chicago Afro-Americans "do things," we republish the following excerpt from the Conservator of that city: "A public reception will be tendered to Hon. Edward D. Green, member of the general assembly from the First Senatorial district at Olvet Baptist church next Thursday evening, the 28th inst. Mr. Green is the author of the present anti-mob law and the only colored member of the legislature; his splendid record during the session commanded the admiration of friend and友等. The citizens committee having the reception in charge, invite every one to be present and promise an interesting program. Admission will be free to all." The Illinois anti-lynching law is practically a duplicate of our Ohio anti-lynching law. The Malby civil rights law of New York state is a copy of our Ohio civil rights law. Ohio leads! Upon invitation of Mr. E. S. Thomas, the well known and splendid basso profundo and director of the Buckeye Male quartette, the editor of The Gazette attended its first dress rehearsal in Prof. Harry A. Williams' studio in the Stone block on Euclid avenue on Monday evening and was delighted with the organization's ensemble and the individual members' solo work. Mr. Thomas has a noble voice and knows how to use it. Many years' experience in this country and abroad have made him a finished singer and a gentleman it is a pleasure to come in contact with. The quartette will be under the direction this season of one of the best knives in the country. The Coit Lyceum bureau of this city, Mr. Coit, Mr. Williams and Miss Bessie Wilson were the other persons present at the rehearsal and all were delighted with the splendid program given. The other talented members of the well known organization are: Andrew Brown, first tenor and guitar; George Waters, second tenor and mandolin; John Douglass, baritone and cello. The Cleveland Baptist Missionary society (white) alleged owner of the Shiloh church property, obtained a restraining order last week Friday in common pleas court, which may mean the abandonment of the church. The society alleges that the church is upon its "last legs" and that the congregation has been collecting rents upon adjacent property owned by the society, refusing to keep up the premises, changing the locks on the doors and excluding the society from possession. By the restraining order issued by Judge Kennedy the congregation is not allowed to use the property temporarily. This society tried to compel the congregation to retain Rev. E. D. Dandridge, former pastor, and E. D. Dandridge, former pastor, is it really to be most concerned with wrist troubles, rights, etc., which disgraced Shiloh church some weeks ago, and it seems the society is now "getting even." The church is not on its "last legs" and the premises are not "running down," etc. The congregation has ownership rights in that property, as well as the society, which ought to be determined by the courts at once. Then the society's alleged interest in the property ought to be purchased by the congregation and Shiloh withdrawn from the Cleveland Baptist Missionary society (white). The daily newspapers' statement that the church's troubles resulted in the death of a trustee or other person is a "sensational" newspaper lie cut out of the too fertile imagination of some cheap reporter.

Nature punishes every infraction of her laws, and carless habits easily lead to the condition described by Mr. William Brown, of No. 1019 Lincoln street, St. Louis. He expert in the employ of the National Biscuit Co. He gives the following account of a trying experience: "In the spring of 1902," he says, "while I was regularly working at my trade, I grew somewhat careless in my habits of eating and drinking, and finally found that my appetite was fickle, a bad taste hingered in my mouth, my nerves twitched and were beyond my control, and my sweats would break out over my body at odd times. Perhaps, while I stood talking with some one, this trembling of the limbs, and profuse sweating, and a severe chill would seize me. I became alarmed at my condition and, having read an endorsement of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, I got a box and began to use them. They helped me at once. After I had used one box the twitching of the nerves, the trouble with the stomach and the cold sweats stopped and have had to wear a mask. I have told all my friends that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me and I recommend them to everybody." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mr. Browne because nothing can strengthen the nerves except good rich, red blood—and Dr. Williams' Pink Pills actually make new blood. They don't act on the nerves, but they cause symptoms. They drive from the blood the cause of anemia, indigestion, nervous disorders, general weakness and the troubles of growing girls and women. The pills are guaranteed to be free from opiates or harmful drugs. Sold by the Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y. DOUBLE TRANSMIGRATION. Dog Suffers for a Defunct Man and Man Gets It for Dead Mule. The man who had come down the steps of the city hall had found a small dog under his feet, and given the animal a kick, relates the Washington Star. The owner, who knew the dog, says, "Sir, why did you kick my dog?" "Because I believe in transmigration," replies the other. What has it to do with it? "Two years ago I knew a mean man, He died. Your dog looks so much like him that I believe it is a cause of transmigration. I always wanted to lick the man, and found you dog under my feet, I could not resist the impulse." "Sir," said the dog-owner, "I once knew a noun. He was the crankiest, meanest, and never got to eat. He died. The minute I set eyes on you, I knew that it was a case of transmigration. I always wanted to wallop that mule, and never got to eat. It has come at last now." And when the crowd hauled them apart there were three black eyes and a bitter ear between the two of them to prove that the dog works like double-barreled shotgun. MUSCLES HE WOULD USE. Medical Student Shows Eminent Qualifications for the Naval Service. A bright, stalwart young man, who had just graduated from a medical college, applied for an examination to enter the United States navy. He was directed to appoint the medical board composed of old naval surgeons. After a careful and lengthy examination, Col. W. C. Gorgas, the president of the board, asked, rather abruptly: "Doctor, suppose you were called to see a man who is a captain, what is the first thing you would do? With emphasis he replied: "Wait till he came down, sir." Col. Gorges looked at him keenly and continued: "Suppose, for your impertinent answer, that I should make what muckle would I bring into play?"

McCALL AN INTERESTING WITNESS President of the New York Life Says Three-quarters of the Bills Affecting Life Insurance Companies Were in the Nature of New York, Oct. 5.—That John R. Hegeman, president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., borrowed $50,000 from the New York Life Insurance Co. at 1½ per cent. interest' a rate below the market rate, was brought out in the insurance investigation last week, but yesterday President John A. McCall, of the New York Life Insurance Co., testified that he in turn borrowed $75,000 from the Metropolitan at the same rate. Mr. McCall resuming, was asked about a deposit to the credit of Judge Hamilton of $162,041 on September 1, 1905. Mr. McCall said the New York Life Insurance Co. had paid Mr. Hamilton no money, but suggested that part of it might have come from the state controller's office by reason of an assignment of tax monies which would come to the judge by reason of his securing the repeal of the tax law which relieved the New York Life Insurance Co. to have one-third of the amount that would rebate to the company, a sum of $72,000, netting Mr. Hamilton about $30,000. President McCall also testified that the New York Life Insurance Co.'s expenses for legal services from June 1, 1900, to August 21, 1905, were $1,103.920. Of this amount Mr. McCall said Andrew Hamilton received $476,927. Earlier in the day Mr. McCall, in detailing the general legislation work of Judge Hamilton and the counsel he employed, denied any knowledge of the legislative pool which was disclosed in the examination of Alfred W. Maine, and author of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, last week. Mr. McCall on this question made the assertion that assurer of the bills affecting life insurance companies were in the nature of blackmail. New York, Oct. 6.—That the astounding total of more than $2,600,000 has been paid as commissions by the Mutual Life Insurance Co. to two members of the family of Richard A.

The French national debt on January 1 last amounted to $5,869,428,846, by the heaviest on any country on the globe. The report of the British mint claims gold coinage in 1904 of $55,210,000, compared with $50,720,000 in 1903, and an average for the preceding ten years of $31,811,000. Much of the new gold went to South America and Egypt.

Ectween 4,000,000 and 5,000,000 cases will be packed this season as against 3,000,000 last year. The price averages $3.50 a case. More than $15,000,000 of gold from the Alaskan and Klondike fields has already been deposited in the United States treasury this season, and, based on the output of prior years, it is probable that some $7,000,000 or $5,000,000 additional will be received before the close of navigation. On April 30, 1904, after three months of war, the Japanese postal savings banks had 3,638,290 depositors with $15,500,000 to their credit.

This increase, under the circumstances, of 1,396,871 depositors and $5,173,000 deposits is remarkable. Total payment by government to New York banks for the day, $5,689,000; payment by banks to government, $5,017,000. Balance on the day's transactions, $672,000 paid by government to banks, against $1,191,000 similarly paid a week ago. Included in the foregoing summary is $300,000 deposited by banks with the sub-treasury for payment at interior points. SOME WHY DON'T YOU'S. Why don't you take more pains to be self-sacrificing? Time is rapidly passing. Why don't you send away that little gift you have been planning to send? Mere kind intentions never accomplish any good. Why don't you speak out the encouraging words that you have in your thoughts? Unless you express them they are of no use to others. Why don't you make the promised visit to that invalid? She is looking for you day after day, and "hope deferred makeh the heart sick." Why don't you answer your friend's letter at once? It will have a double value if written promptly, and will take no more time than by and by. Why don't you create around you an atmosphere of happiness and helpfulness, so that all who come in touch with you may be made better? Is not this possible? Where Push Fails. It takes more than push to open the doors of paradise. NOTICED IT. A Young Lady from New Jersey Put Her Wits to Work. "Coffee gave me terrible spells of indigestion, which, coming on every week or so, made my life wretched until some one told me that the coffee I drank was to blame. That seemed nonsense, but I noticed these attacks used to come on shortly after eating, and were accompanied by such excruciating pains in the pit of the stomach that I could only find relief by loosening my clothing and lying down. "It circumstances made it impossible for me to lie down, I spent hours in the room." "I refused to really believe it was the coffee until finally I thought a trial would at least do no harm, so I quit coffee in 1901 and began on Postum. My troubles left entirely and convinced me of the cause." "Postum brought no discomfort, nor did indigestion follow its use. I have had no return of the trouble since I began to drink Postum. It has built me up, restored my health and given me a new interest in life. It certainly is a joy to be well again." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

When a physician tells a woman, suffering from ovarian or womb trouble, that an operation is necessary it, of course, frightens her.

Our hospitals are full of women who are there for ovarian or womb operations!

Miss Margret Merkley of 275 3rd Street, Milwaukee, Wis., writes: "Dear Mrs. Pinkham— "Loss of strength, extreme nervousness, weakness, and a lack of vital organs, cramps, bearing down pains, and extreme irritation compelled me to seek medical advice. The doctor, after making a diagnosis and ulceration, and advised an operation as my only hope. To this I strongly objected to the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound." "To my surprise the ulceration healed, all the bad symptoms disappeared, and I am once more strong, vigorous and well, and I can express my thanks for what it has done for me.
