THE
TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 26.
THE FASHIONS OF THE DAY
EVENING GOWNS OF LATEST MODE.
Fashions for the Children
On the street women look much the same as usual: it is in evening dress we notice a marked difference. At evening affairs we seem transported back to stately days of old, so many tall ladies about in short-waisted, long-skirted Empire gowns. It is, as we suggested, a stately fashion on the whole, and a pleasant change from the long-waisted, short-skirted mode obtaining the last few years.
The gowns in the accompanying picture are elaborate costumes from across the water, and may be satisfactorily copied with less elaboration and extravagance. The first of the trio is of silver gauze over soft green satin. The trimming of the skirt is arranged very low and is bordered with black velvet ribbon. A black velvet ribbon, which passes around the bare neck and crosses simply on the bosom, gives character to the gown. The sleeve, merely a long flowing drapery, harmonizes well with this costume. The middle figure displays a soft tafeta in the rose-color so well liked today, the trimming of this beautiful gown ruches of spangled net. The corsage is edged with guipure, and laced with rose-colored velvet. The third design is a soft silk Empire gown with a Watteau pleat down the back. The color is pale violet, and there is a velvet under-arm sash of deeper shade. This robe is edged with silver embroidery.
It is with extreme temerity we venture to speak of misses' garments under this head, but feel called upon to say a few words about styles for the girl in her teens. Lately there was an attempt made to put her into a very long skirt, but she has shown her good sense and rebelled at the notion. Advance styles for spring show that the decidedly short skirt will be favored, and experience has shown the circular model can be acceptably employed for these skirts.
Tailor skirts are plain, dressier materials occasionally show the double

and triple flounce, and occasionally there is the simulation of an overskirt. Semi-fitting and loose coats are preferred for the girlish figure and numbers of Eton jackets whose trimming may be arranged to give the lines most becoming to the lines most becoming to the lines prefer to have their young daughters very plainly tressed, but this does not mean there should be any lack of care in choosing materials and dressmaker. All through the winter the long, semi-fitted coat in mixtures has been a texture and promises to have some vogue the coming season. The rainy days of spring require such a wrap, and it is foolish to affirm that only short coats will be fashionable. The Etonts will be shorter than ever, a broad girdle worn to fill the space between coat and skirt.
Party frocks are generally light;
we may say, generally white. The rib
Leaving the realm of luxury and getting down to the utilitarian, let us speak of the rain-coat as it is to-day. We find it greatly improved, with small resemblance to the unattractive garment of some seasons back. Much attention now is paid to materials, and there is both variety and excellence obtainable. Much attention is paid to cut, the rain-coat of to-day being no shapeless garment. One may find one's favorite color, too, and when arrayed in the new, kindly all-enveloping waterproof wrap have comfortable assurance it is becoming as well as fine protection against a storm. A spring coat model recently placed on exhibition is somewhat more than three-quarters in length, and is quite close fitting. It comes in light shades, and will also appear in white; promises to be a favorite of the coming season. The turn-back collar and the revers on the sleeves are of velvet in self-color, as is also the breast of the coat. Large mother-of-pearl buttons adorn the front clear to the item of the garment.
The "pony" jacket, a combination of Empire and box-coat, a wrap that does not pretend to follow the lines of the figure, is sure to be popular for the spring suit. Very dressy little black wraps will be affected for afternoon wear, the sleeves of these little longer than the elbow-sleeve so generally in favor. That the elbow sleeve will be utterly ruted we very much doubt.
bon-bordered fountes are popular for nets, and very attractive. Some dainty dance frocks in Empire style are observed, and the young girl as a rule looks charming in the quaint models. Now let us give smaller girls a show, and speak of dresses, party and otherwise, belonging to them. Our illustration pictures a dancing frock for a girl of ten. The skirt, which is extremely full at the bottom, is set on to the bodice with absolutely no fullness. This is one of the newest styles, and has other recommendation than novelty; cut is graceful, the frock allows perfect freedom of motion, and the very short sleeves and medium-low neck disclose the childish beauty of throat and arms. The frock being so short, stockings and shoes must be of the daintiest. This design would make up very prettily in pale blue or pink nun's veiling. For little girls, suspender dresses promise to have an increased popularity. We saw a model the other day that was decidedly smart, a light blue linen with simple white waist. The skirt had a front panel which narrowed sharply at the waist line, and the rest was laid in side pleats. The suspender part was broad with epaulets at the shoulders, the bodice of sheer white material quite trimmed. It was dainty as could be, and charmingly simple and smart.
White aprons are very much the thing for a little girl, and as they save the dresses a goodly stock should be provided the lassie. For little girls, as well as for their mothers, the Empire coat is in fashion, and the better ones have almost no trimming. Smaller girls have hooded coats, which give them the appearance of tiny Eskimos.
A Theory

CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1906.
Almost Criminal Neglect — The Clauss Shear Factory Trouble—What to Do.
(Special to The Gazette.)
Fremont, O.,—Wheeler Kimbro was on last Friday night found guilty of shooting with intent to kill. Kimbro with two other Afro-Americans, Lorenzo Martin and Walter Stratton, were charged with the killing of Otto Mischke and the wounding of August and Rudolph Gommoll during the Clauss shear factory strike in May, 1902. Martin is now serving a ten-year sentence in the penitentiary for manslaughter and Stratton is yet to be tried. The specific charge against Kimbro was shooting at Randolph Gommoll. The men were merely trying to protect their lives from a mob and were fully justified in the course they pursued.
Martin's conviction and sentence is an outrage the prejudiced sentiment of this community is responsible for. Just why his case was not carried to a higher court is difficult to understand. There he would have secured justice. It should have been appealed to the state supreme court if necessary. Then he would undoubtedly have been freed.
Kimbro stood convicted in the minds of the local jury long before he was tried. Such is the feeling here as the result of that miserable strike. The same was true in Martin's case, and will be when Stratton is tried in the near future. The three trials will be the greatest parodies on the law and justice this section of the state has witnessed in many years unless something is done, and soon, too, to avert the two impending miscarriages. The Clauss shear factory people in order to break the back of a strike several years ago, sent to Cleveland and elsewhere for men. The three youths of the race mentioned were among the Afro-Americans and whites secured. One evening a mob charged the former, beating and cutting some of them until in sheer defense of their lives they were forced to retaliate, with the result, indicated in the opening paragraph of this article. One would naturally think that the Clauss people would assist in their defense, as they promised to do many months ago. It seems, however, that they have wholly and completely abandoned those who came to their assistance at the imminent risk of their lives, and as a result of that action are now on trial for their lives. For shame!
We are reliably informed that funds were lacking not only to secure proper and sufficient legal counsel (only one attorney, and he inadequately paid, being furnished by the county officials representing the state), but that Martin's case was not appealed and carried up for the same reason—lack of funds. Poor boy, he has already served two years of as unjust and underserved a (ten years') sentence in the Ohio penitentiary as ever an innocent man received.
When the editor of The Gazette was here last week Tuesday as a character witness for Kimbro he looked over the jury carefully, turned to Kimbro and told him what their result would be. Their faces and those of the white attendants in the crowded court room were enough. The verdict of the Friday following confirmed his judgment
What's to be Done?
Martin's release from the penitentiary should be sought systematically and as the result of organization throughout Ohio. Let every community of our people take an interest in the matter. See also that your representatives in the Ohio assembly interest themselves in Martin's parole and pardon. Then an immediate and respectful effort should be made by responsible Afro-Americans throughout the state to get his Clauss, of this city, to do his duty. He owes it to himself, his business interests and the three boys, Martin, Kimbro and Stratton, all good boys, to furnish ample means to help get Martin out of prison and give him back at least his liberty, and to secure the acquittal of the other two while yet there is time. This is Mr. Claus' obligation, his debt of honor. May God enable him to see it clearly and encourage him to do his duty.
It was a pitiful sight to see Kimbro's aged and faithful father (from Xenia, I think.) standing by his boy
and doing all in his power. He and his boy need help; they are entitled to help not only from Mr. Clauss, but also from our own people of the Buckeye state. Will they get it?
THE COLONEL'S "TURN DOWN."
Negotiating for Hotel Property—Per
sonal and Other Interesting
tasks
Stenbenville, O.—There is a rumor affloat that some of our local capitalists are negotiating for the purchase of the Union hotel with a view to making it a first class house for the accommodation of Afro-American visitors.—"Much ado about nothing," is the conclusion of fair-minded people concerning the alleged political turn-down of Col. S. Spotsford Clements by Sergeant-at-arms Gilson of the lower house at Columbus. The facts are that the latter to reach his own goal, had to be shorn almost completely of all appointing power. If it had been possible for either Gilson or Representative Jones to "place" Clements anywhere they to have "paid" them. Would mind-powers" are busy trying to convince the colonel that he has a grievance, but with no success as he is too much of a patriot and a republican. Some of our young society men are thinking of issuing a directory of our business men and a social blue book. Too much indiscriminate association is going to keep some names off the list.

AN EXCELLENT SUGGESTION.
Prof, W. W. S. Scarborough Thinks Tha Our People Should "Remember" Miss Alice and We Heartily Agree With Him.
To the Editor of The Gazette.
To the Editor of the Gazette,
My dear Mr. Smith: As the president's daughter is soon to be married, an event that all the nations of earth, no doubt, will recognize, because of the sterling qualities and matchless character of our chief executive I would suggest that the Afro-American people throughout the country take steps to secure some suitable gift that may be presented to Miss. Roosevelt as a small token of our high regard for the president as a man, of our appreciation of his distinguished services in the interest of humanity and of our gratitude for the splendid fight he has made for us even at the expense of his own personal popularity.
I would suggest that the Afro-American newspapers of the country push the matter to a finish and that there be a committee of seven to look after the details, that Mr. Washington, yourself and Mr. Fortune be three of that committee, and that you three choose four others to act with you in carrying out the suggestions herein made. I would suggest further that the subscription plan be followed.
With best wishes for your future, I am, my dear sir.
Yours very truly,
W. S. SCARBOROUGH

BEWARE OF "HENDERSON!"
The Contemptible Trick He Played-
Claimed to be an Associate of
Paul Dunbar—Personal and
Other Notes.
Mansfield, O.—"Elliott B. Henderson," a tall, slender, dark fellow with side whiskers, who represented himself as a "poet and preacher" from Columbus or Springfield, "a personal friend of Paul L. Dunbar and his associate in giving recitals, musicals and literary programs before Dunbar's health failed," called on two of the trustees and asked permission to use the church January 19th for a recital. He was told that if it was agreeable with the alright. But instead of the trustees, he went to selling tickets to white people and then left with the money. He billed stores for two dollars. Tickets 25 cents each. He claimed that he was to be assisted by the best musical talent and that the recital was to be given for the benefit of the church. A contemptible trick! Our people here are trying to pay for their church and to have some one do like this, it hurts! We wish to warn others to be on the look out for him. He is smooth and worked his game well. If located he will be arrested—Miss Cora Grant is W. Lee, wife of Rev. W. Lee, died January 20, 1905. Funeral Thursday, Prof. Clark, of Wilberforce, officiated. Mr. Cooper and Mr. Jones, of Marion; Mr. Johnson, of Cleveland, and Mrs. Donohue, of Dayton, her sister, were here. The remains were taken to Springfield for interment. Mrs. Donohue left Tuesday for home. The others left last week. Rev. Lee has the heartfelt sympathy of all.
Morgantown, W. Va., Items.
C. H. Thomas has been very ill—The revival is still in progress at the A. M. E. church. Rev J. A. Patterson preached able sermons morning and evening Sunday. Three persons asked for prayer and six held up their hands for the same—The social on the 15th at Mr. and Mrs. A. H. Brown's in honor of her daughter, Miss Eva, of institute, was a very pleasant one. Mrs A. H. Brown and J. H. Lewis managed the affair—The Court of Calanthe social last week Friday evening was a success. Forty-two being present—Mrs. A. Belle Ellis and son were at church Sunday. The Afro-Americans in jail, through J. H. Lewis, have asked the A. M. E. pastor and members' prayers. They will go and sing, read and pray for them.
DR. HARRY W. FURNISS.
Until Recently U. S. Consul at Bahia Brazil—Promoted to Minister to Haiti—Succeeding Prof. W. F. Powell.
Secretary of the State Root's recent announcement of the promotion of Consul Furniss at Bahia, Brazil, to the position as minister to Haiti did not cause as great surprise the country over as the subsequent announcement of the doctor's marriage to a Spanish lady of rare culture, beauty and attainments. As the above portrait indicates Minister Furniss is a fine looking man. His salary at Bahia was $2,500 a year with additional fees mounting to about $100 annually. His salary as minister to Haiti will be $6,000. Some Washington correspondents have announced it as $7,500. Dr. Furniss was a resident of Indianapolis, Ind., where he has a brother, a physician, and a father, who is superintendent of the special delivery service in the postoffice there. Consul Furniss' reports to the state department were models of neatness and chirographic beauty.
PROF. WILLIAM F. POWELL,
of New Jersey, whom he succeeds as
this country's representative in Haiti
was appointed by President McKinley
during his first term and retires with
honors after about nine years incum-
bancy of the lucrative office.
Dr. Furniss was born in Brooklyn,
N. Y., in 1869. His father was one of
the early professors of mathematics in
colleges attended by colored people,
and was educated in Dartmouth college.
Young Furniss passed through the
public and high schools of this
city and then took a medical and
pharmaceutical course in Howard
university, Washington. He served for
two years in the census bureau and
then returned to hisapolis associating
himself with Dr. S. S. Wass in
the practice of medicine. He was
thus engaged when he received his
commission as consul to Bahla in 1888.
This appointment to Haiti gives to Indiana the first place it has had in the diplomatic service since Addison C. Harris retired as minister to Austria-Hungary.
THE NEGRO PROBLEM AND THE
CHURCH.
To the Editor:
Much sand is being thrown in the eyes of reading and thinking people today, by the novelist and lecturer, in reference to the Negro and the so-called Negro problem. Men are talking loosely about the future of the two races, the black and the white. They claim that there are two, and only two, alternatives in this matter, one being the amalgamation of the races; and the other, the extermination of one race or the other, that the two cannot go on and live peaceably together. I wonder, sometimes, if the church is not influenced and prejudiced by such writings and such talk, and so holds back her strong arm that might protect and defend these "libelled" brethren of the darker race.
REV. EDWARD S. DOAN.
Perhaps. It is the "disintegrated conscience" of churchmen that is at the bottom of a great deal of this indifference to the moral and spiritual betterment of the Negro, who is here in our midst to stay, until "that day."
But how foolish all this hate and prejudice is, in the face of the rell.

A representative of this paper has been 'employed at Bennet and Fish's Euclid avenue, for some weeks, sufficiently long to feel justified in praising this, one of the leading firms of the kind in the city and urging our people to remember it with at least a portion of their patronage.
Hon. John P. Green, government stamp agent, delivered a fine lecture, "The Evolution of John Brown and His Immortals" on the 16th at Linden temple, Washington, D.C. The Washington "the temple was invited to the doors with an enthusiastic audience." The lecture was under the auspices of the Bethel Literary and Historical association of that city.
After reading Rev. E. S. Doan's splendid communication published elsewhere in this issue of The Gazette, Father Cartier, of Philadelphia, wrote him at Port Clinton, O., that he read it with joy and suggested that more of the same kind of good logic be written and published by Father Doan. To which we add a warm second. Read the article carefully. It is fine.
The revival at St. John's church began Sunday evening to continue indefinitely. The advantage of having Sunday school immediately after church is plainly seen in the fact that the young people attend morning vice and the mothers and fathers stay to listen to the children. The "Old Folks' concert Jan. 17th by the Willow Theater with a splendid success, $24.69 being raised.

cause he is a waiter. He believes they thought him presumptuous to ask to be served instead of serving. This looks like others have trouble. The Ladies' Benevolent society met at Mrs. Terry's, Dodge court, last week Thursday afternoon. In spite of the inclement weather a large number attended. The meeting was a success, financially and socially. The society is taking up art lessons in connection with their meetings. Mrs. J. M. Gilmere and Mrs. Lillian Sturker were elected to instruct. The ladies will do all kinds of needlework and china painting. Mrs. Terry served luncheon and it was greatly enjoyed.
What promises to be an exceptionally amusing entertainment is the musical comedy in two acts entitled a "Perplexing Question" to be given Monday evening, Feb. 21st, by the young ladies of St. Andrew's mission at Woodliff hall. As the performance is to begin promptly at eight o'clock standard time, it will pay to be on time. All of the affairs of the young ladies' in the past have been extremely successful, and there is no doubt as to the outcome in the case of the musical comedy.
Rev. M. A. Alexander, of High Point, N. C., the new pastor of Gethsemane Baptist church, Pittsburg and Broadway streets, recently returned from a trip to his former home and is now actively engaged in the church's work. The congregation has purchased a lot on Humbolt street and will build. Thero will be a grand rally Sunday for the purpose of raising money for the new church fund. Rev. Wm. Mehmedovic, of the church will preach Sunday at 3 p.m. Rev. Alex.ander and W. M. Marrow, chairman of the trustee board of Gethsemane church, paid The Gazette a pleasant call on Wednesday.
Joseph W. Mahan, of 26 Lorain court, a member of a company of the Fifth regiment O. N. G., who was accidently shot in the head at the riffle range on ex-Congressman White's farm, just west of the city, one Sunday some months ago when the "crack shots" of the company were at target practice, has been returned home from the hospital with his entire right arm. He was shot by a speech gone. Even his partial recovery was not expected. There is slight hope of still more improvement in Joe's condition. He is one of the few Afro-American members of the state militia outside of the Ninth battalion.
During the months of March and December examinations are held in the principle cities of the Union (Cleveland included) for positions as teachers, physicians, kindergartners, nurses and matrons in the Indian service. While the life is solitary and the duties are onerous, the pay is good and our people should avail themselves of the opportunities thus created to make a livelihood in the larger numbers than they do. All necessary information may be had by applying for a manual and blanks for the kind of examination desired to the civil service commission, Washington, D. C.
St. John's church's attendance at morning and evening services is very large. The school broke all former records last Sunday in point of attendance and collection, the former being 262, just twice as many as one year ago. The collection was $6.70, the largest in the history of the school. The offering for the board of deaconesses was $5.02. Public collection, $0.50. W. M. M. society $1.08, grand total for the day, $4.30. No rally in connection with it. The members of the church and school and their children were very proud. Ira A. Collins and his splendid helpmate (his wife) as a result of the excellent showing being made under their leadership.
The other day we picked up a copy of the Evening News in which there was quite a lengthy article describing Police Judge Feidler's experience with an Irish woman who was a cook for a wealthy resident of the East End, and who had been arrested for drunkenness. The article in question clearly indicated a lack of intelligence on the part of the woman, and yet in all the News' quotations of the judge there was a total absence of any effort to show the difference between the mongrel racial terms in any sense similar to those used a few weeks ago when that paper was writing up the "Smart Set" company. We call Manager Bower's attention to the fact.
Rev. and Mrs. J. M. Gilmere, of 16 Laurel street, assisted by Mrs. Jas. Putnam entertained the Amity club, Mrs. Crowler, Winton Crowler and the editor of The Gazette on Wednesday evening at an informal luncheon which proved very enjoyable indeed. The members of the Amity club are: Ore Williams, Jennie Grey, Ada Gray, Marle Russell, Normal Tatbot, Robert and Frank Crowler, Roy and George Putnam and Fred Wells. The following program was rendered: Recitation, Miss Russell; baritone solo, "The Palms." Robert Crowler; piano solo, "Meditation," Norman Talbot. Short talks were made by Rev. and Mrs. Gilmere and the editor of The Gazette. Master Wells stated the objects of the club pertinently and interestingly. Mrs. Gilmere proved an exceptionally successful hostess and was ably seconded by Dr. Gilmere and Mrs. Putnam.
The Caterers' association's initial soiree Tuesday evening at Gray's armory was a splendid success in every way. Over 500 people, the great majority of the them in full evening dress, a number of the ladies most beautifully gowned, enjoyed an exceptionally well arranged dance program, the music for which was rendered by Johnson's splendid orchestra of 16 pieces. The grand march at midnight, which was lead by Wm. Hunl and Mrs. Alida McFarland, was a spectacular affair made possible by the large floor space of the armory, and thoroughly enjoyed by everybody. The flowing punch bowl, over which presided the genial veteran "Alee" Vaughin, was a thing of joy for hours, which many can attest. Delicious refreshments were served throughout the evening and indeed everything done to promote the thorough enjoyment of the armory, Warner Gasser and Demarest remembered the association very kindly furnishing palms and flowers for decorative purposes, and punch bowls, glasses, etc., respectively. Seldom has so beautiful a scene been presented in the armory as that of Tuesday evening. The officers of the association and its reception and arrangements committees as well as all the other members of the organization, have every reason to feel proud of their grand success. It was indeed a social function long to be
remembered. Many persons from cities adjacent were in attendance and all left the armory loud in their praises of the splendid affair. The management of the floor, the door, the check-room and all auxiliary departments of the armory was such that not even an unpleasant word was heard throughout the evening. This speaks volumes for our people for which The Gazette felicitates the Caterers' association.
WHEN GOING TO PITTSBURG.
I should say: "Select the railroad that has the greatest number of fast trains and has the shortest line from Cleveland; and the road that would have trains every day, not daily except Sunday; the road that uses safety block signals and has a double track all the way; the road that charges only fifty cents for a parlor car seat, and that runs a cafe club car, in which you pay only for what you order. If I took a sleeping car, I would not want to pay more than $1.50 for a double berth. I should select a railroad which would permit me to make the trip without change of cars and which would allow me to pass through Youngstown and along the banks of the picturesque Beaver and Ohio rivers into Pittsburgh City. Then it's the Erie railroad that I shall select; it gives me the above and even more; seven trains every day. They sell tickets at No. 9 Eucil avenue, in the city of Cleveland."
A Disastrous Flood.
Ranokean, Va., Jan. 25.—A belated dispatch from Marian, Va., was received yesterday, giving the first intelligence from that point since the flood of Tuesday. The downpour at Marian was the heaviest in the town's history and great damage was done to property. The Currie bridge on the Marian & Rye Valley railroad at Marian was swept away and the section of the town in which this structure stood was buried in wreckage. The water rose to a height of four feet in many dwelling houses in that section.
Bishop Turner's Wife Dead.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Mrs. Harriet A. Turner, wife of Bishop Henry M. Turner, and widow of Bishop A. W. Wayman, died at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Walter P. Hall on Jan. 10. Mrs. Turner had been an invalid for some time, and had lived in Philadelphia because the climate of Atlanta did not agree with her. She was married to Bishop Turner several years ago in Baltimore. The bishop was in Savannah, Ga., at the time of his wife's death attending the general conference commission.

AMERICA'S MOST NOTED HAIR CULTURIST

IS the title won by Madam T. E. Stumm, of Philadelphia. Her treatment of the scalp and the results produced by her None Such Scalp Food in making long, straight and beautiful hair grow upon bald heads and on heads where the hair was falling out have been wonderful. Her treatments and her remedies make the hair grow and flourish.
She will treat you by mail or in person.

The Climate's the thing in San Antonio
The invigorating air, dry and warm; the altitude; the perfect natural drainage, all combine to make the temperature as nearly perfect as can be. It is possible to spend most of each day, from November to March, out-doors. The parks and plazas, the margins of the creeks and rivers, the groves of palm and magnolia, lose nothing of their fustrous green during the winter months. San Antonio is, of all America, the oldest blending of modern utility and beauty with the romance and heroism of the medieval.

PAIN IN THE JOINTS
PAIN IN THE JOINTS
Rheumatic Tortures Cease When Dr
William Hills Will Make
Mike
The first sign of rheumatism is frequently a pain and swelling in one of the joints. If not combated in the blood, which is the seat of the disease, the poison spreads, affecting other joints and tissues. Sometimes rheumatism attacks the heart and is quickly fatal.
The one remedy that has cured rheumatism so that it stays cured is Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. These pills expel the poison from the blood and restore the system, so that the poisonous matter is passed off as nature intended.
Mrs. I. T. Pitcher, of No. 130 Monmouth street, Newark, N. J., suffered for about three years from rheumatism before she found this cure. She says:
"It began with a queer feeling in my fingers. In a little time it seemed as though the finger joints had lumps on them and I could not get my gloves on.
"Then it grew worse and spread to my knees. I could not stand up and I could not sleep nights. My suffering was worse. I took a great deal of medicine, but nothing even gave me relief until I tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
"I read an account of a cure in a case that was exactly like mine and my husband got me some of the pills. I took them for three weeks before I really felt better but they finally cured me." Mr. Pitcher, who is a veteran and a member of E. D. Morgan Post, No. 307 of New York, substantiates his wife's statement and says that she now walks in the street, whereas a year ago he was compelled to push her about in a wheeled chair. Both Mr. and Mrs. Pitcher are enthusiastic in their praise of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. For further information, address the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N.Y.

LEARNED OF WRITERS
Paul Heye is accredited with being one of the most famous living German novelists, who is almost as well known in America as in the Fatherland.
Mary A. Fisher, of New York, will write a novel and devote the proceeds of the sale to the support of a home, nonsectarian, and to care for those "who have labored in literature, art, education, or any of the various professions."
Mrs. Schuyler Crowninshield, wife of the admiral, has written several stories, and recently has made her first effort at a stage production which deals with the revolutionary war and has been recently produced in New York and aroused enthusiasm.
Emil Zerkowitz, the noted Hungarian author, who has been commissioned as special envoy by his government with the purpose of establishing important commercial relations between that country and this, recently arrived in New York. He has a boy named George Washington Zerkowitz, who was born on February 22, 1903.
It is stated that Winston Churchill is to receive the sum of $40,000 down and royalties for his biography of his father, the late Lord Randolph Churchill People marvel how he has found time to write it, considering what a busy man he is. When John Morley wrote the life of Gladstone, for which he received $50,000, it took him three years to complete it, and he practically shut himself up for that period, keeping right away from public life.

THE LITTLE WIDOW
A Mighty Good Sort of Neighbor to Have.
"A little widow, a neighbor of mine, persuaded me to try Grape-Nuts when my stomach was so weak that it would not retain food of any other kind," writes a grateful woman, from San Bernardino Co., Cal.
"I had been ill and confined to my bed with fever and nervous prostration for three long months after the birth of my second boy. We were in despair until the little widow's advice brought relief.
"I liked Grape-Nuts food from the beginning, and in an incredibly short time it gave me such strength that I was able to leave my bed and enjoy my three good meals a day. In 2 months my weight increased from 95 to 113 pounds, my nerves had steadied and I felt ready for anything. My neighbors were amazed to see me gain so rapidly, and still more so when they heard that Grape-Nuts alone had brought the change.
"My 4-year-old boy had eczema, very bad, last spring, and lost his appetite entirely, which made him cross and peevish. I put him on a diet of Grape-Nuts, when he relished at once. He improved from the beginning, the eczema disappeared and now he is fat and rosy, with a delightfully soft, clear skin. The Grape-Nuts diet did it. I will willingly answer all inquiries."

BRUNEI ENGLAND'S
BRUNEI ENGLAND'S
THE ANCIENT KINGDOM OF THE ISLAND OF BORNEO.
A Recent Agreement with the Sultan Makes Provision for British Resident—Glance at the Territory Under British Protection.
We have long looked upon the great Island of Borneo as divided between the Dutch and English, but just recently the latter nation had fall to her confirmation of influence down there in that tropic land, the sultan of the kingdom of Brunei, which lies between British North Borneo and Sarawak, making an agreement providing for the appointment of a British resident with powers to control the general administration of the state.
The Dutch held possession of southern Borneo, the British have kept to the north. Politically the whole island is divided into British Borneo and Dutch Borneo, the two separated by a mountain barrier. The northernmost part held by the British North Borneo company since 1888, has been under the formal protectorate of the British government. Sarawak has for nominal governor a native rajah, but is under British protection. Brunei up to now had for a ruler a native sultan, but, like the others, was considered subject to Great Britain.
Brunel, or Brunal, gave the island its name, Borneo, a corruption of the word. Brunal was a Malay state, and the Malays were the dominant race, their rule extending practically over the island. When Pigafetta, friend of Magellan, visited the island, he was entertained most royally by the potentate at that time holding sway. This potentate had "numbers of trained elephants and horses, forts with heavy ordnance, gold vessels and spoons, sillie embroideries, porcelain dishes, and, in short, all the adjuncts of a high civilization; a good deal of it, no doubt, borrowed from the Chinese, whose money was in sole use." It was early in the sixteenth century Borneo was first discovered by Europeans, both Spaniards and Portuguese visiting it at this period. Very
THE TOWN OF BRUNEI
soon after their discovery, the Portuguese established commercial relations with the natives, and considerably later the Spaniards opened trade relations; but neither country exerted lasting influence. At the beginning of the seventeenth century the Dutch and English traders appeared, the latter gaining foothold in the south. Presently the Dutch reappeared the English out. They reappeared some time afterward, in the northern part of the island, but let their power wane, and for 50 years there was no progress. Early in the last century, an Englishman, Sir James Brooke, awakened the interest of his countrymen in the neglected country, and commercial relations presently were advanced.
That portion of British Borneo known as Sarawak, lies southwest of Brunei. It has an area of about 50,000 square miles, and a population of about 600,000. It is of considerable importance commercially; the chief products are tobacco, sago, rice, gums, spices, jungle product and dried fish. There is an abundance of coal; and the precious metals, diamonds and mercury are found. British North Borneo has an area of 31,000 square miles and a population of perhaps 175,000. It has considerable commercial importance. A marine cable connects Labuan with Singapore, and there is telegraphic communication to the capital city. Brunei is of small extent, its area but 15,000 square miles, and population only 45,000.
The principal town is named Brunel, and is situated on a bay of the same name. The few Englishmen that touch there, touch pronounced Brunel most interesting, built entirely on plies in the water. It is called the Venice of the east. A sketch in the London Graphic tells us: "Vessels anchor in its main streets, and the children can swim almost before they know how to walk. Its market is not less singular—a dense pack of canoes, now dispersing, now swarming like a live of the bees, the occupants being nearly all women, wearing hats as big as umbrellas. The busy scene, the incessant shouts of the crowd, and the marvelous dexterity of the paddling are not likely to be soon forgotten by the spectator. But there is little in the way of trade in Brunel. Coal indeed there is, and in this respect our territories in Borneo may some day prove a very useful asset, but otherwise our new acquisition cannot be said to product much, except krisses."

Franklin's Last Days.
Two of the last incidents of his (Franklin's) life are lovingly remembered. It was he who introduced the motion in the constitutional convention to open their meetings with prayer. His last public act was to indite from his deathbed, as president of the Society for the Abolition of Slavery, a noble and touching appeal "for those unhappy men who, amidst the general joy of surrounding freemen, are grousing in servile subjection," in which the warm heart of the aged philanthropist seems united to the unerring conscience of the glorified saint. It is fitting that this beneficent and symmetrical life should be closed with this large utterance of humanity.—Century.

The cattle of the Dominion experimental farms at Nappan, Nova Scotia, that have developed tuberculosis are not to be slaughtered. Dr Rutherford, veterinary inspector-general, has recommended that experiments be made if the eradication of the disease by the fresh air cure.

It is hoped by introducing some treatment that is beneficial in the case of human beings to effect a cure.
