THE
TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 35.
Spring Styles Most Attractive
Notes of Fashions of the Day
Though the automobile is with us always, when the ground is covered with snow as well as when grass blows green, just now autos are out in great numbers; and it behooves the autoist to see to a suitable wardrobe. For town and fashion resort one wears clothes of different order from those selected for lengthy tours, and to-day we shall discuss dress for the former occasions. Our illustration shows a fetching motor hat of pleated gray glaze trimmed only with wings. The veil, such a prominent part of the costume of the average motor lady, is gray with black dots. The all enveloping wrap is a gray cloth of heavy material with a collar of glace.
For outing wear one sees some very attractive costumes. Whilst volle seems the last thing in the world to choose for rough and ready purposes, it is to be recommended for a walking suit in the city, where there are no nences to be climbed, no stone walls vaulted. It is light in weight and comes in all shades. The following proved a very desirable walking costume, both in regard to comfort and appearance—a short pleated skirt of tan volle relieved by hair lines of green; the jacket a jaunty affair, warm and snug when closed, nice for a warm day when open. From beneath the coat peeped a soft silk blouse of green. The hat was a burnt straw sailor with folded band and high-bowing of plaid ribbon.
Sailor hats by the time summer's well here may be worn ad museum, but there is enough variety of styles to give considerable diversity. Those cone-crowned hats when trimmed are really acceptable, and one sees some exceptionally smart ones. The other day I passed the window of a small exclusive shop whose products almost always bear the unmistakable stamp of style, and thought beholders the next 24 hours would be apt to see through rose-colored glasses. Every hat on display was of some shade of old-rose, in most cases toned down with black. One of the cone-crowned sort had a black plume bandeau, and a short black plume that made a low arch on one side. Quite a number of chic hats have their trimming to the right, a decided change from established rules. The bird of paradise is even more in vogue than in the winter, and on a smallish black hat very effective. In Paris doctors disagree, the best gown builders not in harmony as regards modes, some hold to the sheath-
Now the wanton lapwing gets himself another crest, now vain woman does likewise. Color, color every where, everything gay and festive the somber and sober, kept out of sight. Such flower gardens as riot on the hats, such light dresses everybody seems having a holiday. There are the bluest, blues, the greenest greens, the rostest reds—no one color monopolizing the field.
On the warmest days abbreviated coatees of fanciful sort have part in the afternoon promenade, but for

mornings of the average day many well-fitting long coats are seen. We have chosen for our illustration this week a practical costume of the morning order, a rough brown and blue check; touches of brown, you remember, we made assertion some time ago, was to be very smart this season. The collar, buttons and belt of the brown and blue frock are of dark brown velvet, the hat is one of those summer felts that come in very well on the cool days, and has for trimming a long osprey feather and scarf of blue silk. This would make a very suitable costume for traveling, especially good if the travel was by water.
Coats of all lengths are worn; short ones, to be sure, in the lead. But the long redingote is still in good style, the longish box coat a novelty that has found favor, fancy boleros very much the thing. For automobile cloaks rajal silk, of a good substantial sort, is well liked; it sheds the dust easily, comes in attractive shades and in those that stand exposure to the sun.
Colored silk lingerie waists are a noveity that appeal to many, and may be had in the usual suit shades. The lingerie waist differs little from that of last year, save that the back is now trimmed. Striped shirtdings in tailored styles have returned to favor, and are a great comfort. The plain waist for mornings has always had a few adherents, and now will have many since it bears the stamp of fashion.
Wash neckwear is in highest favor, and the Windsor tie will be worn a known to man.
In Union There is Strength.
like fit, others are for empire modes and soft fall of draperies. Which makes things rather comforting for her of slender purse; she need not attempt the one new fashion since no one fashion obtains. The Parisians have found a charming combination in light apple-green and autumn brown, the green of the palest tint. A beautiful costume designed for Casino wear, was fashioned of apple-green crepe de chine

with waistcoat of golden-brown panne.
Cream lace in chemisette and frills
for the short sleeves added to the
color scheme, as did the green hat
unrelieved by any touch of color.
The green hat we have had with us these three years past, but it is as attractive as when first making appearance. On St. Patrick's day one of the shops had a window verdant with hats the color sacred to the good saint, and not one but was charming. An especially attractive moss-green model was trimmed with nothing except a great bunch of pale blue forget-me-nots, and one thought how refreshing this would be on a satyrd day.
great deal, coming in the brightest colors and in both pongee and tussore silk. Simple little lawn turn-over collars are in excellent style so dainty and fine, and one may have a number of them at small outlay. Vells of two sorts are seen; the small face veil which ends just at the tip of the nose, and the billowing cloud which makes of the wearer a mysterious velled lady.
The princess with double skirt effect is the latest in princess robes, but should not be affected by any but the very tall. The underskirt is long at the back, lies on the floor several inches. A princess combined with empire lines was recently displayed in New York, a gown originating across the water. It had a modified corselet skirt, so high at the back as to almost reach the line of the empire short waist; then at the front it was cut down well below the bust. The skirt was of pink silk, the waist of net, the net forming a fluffy blouse and pretty puffed sleeves, the puff terminating above the elbow in a wide band of lace. Pink velvet straps, passed over the shoulders; the stock and chemisette were of lace. This costume would be very effective worn with coral jewelry of the pale shade, that pure pink which has no yellow in it.

FIGHTS POLICE IN MIDAIR.
Demented Sailor Struggles with Officers on Flagpole of High Building in Cleveland.
Cleveland, O.—After rescuing a demented sailor from a wind-blown flagpole, three policemen had a hard fight with the man on the roof of a 16-story building before subduing him. The sailor was from the battleship Iowa, and recently had been confined in the Boston insane asylum.
The man had slipped to the roof of the Williamson building unobserved and had begun to climb the flagpole when a flutter of blue caught the eye of Sergeant of Police Hannan.
Summoning two policemen, Hannan hurried to the roof. Up climbed the man, and the wind twisted him about the pole, and seemed about to hurl him into the street 225 feet below.
Finally the policemen pulled him down by a halyard that had become twisted about his leg, and then the struggle for the mastery started. The man fought fiercely until beaten into submission.
Thinking he was a deserter from the navy the officers took him to the recruiting station, where it was learned his name is J. Cline, and that he recently had been confined as insane.
Uncalled-For Mutton
Hanging to a rafter in a shop at Bourne, Lincolnshire, England, is a leg of mutton 50 years old. It was bought from the present occupier's predecessor by a gentleman who said he would call for it later on. He never did so, and there it hangs today. It has so withered that it resembles a shillalah.

PROF. RICHARD T. GREENER.
Washington, D. C.—Scandalous conditions in the United States consular service were Wednesday disclosed to the house of representatives by President Roosevelt and Secretary of State Root.

It refers to his bad habits, his alleged insolence, and his habit of treating orders of the department with contempt.

PROF. JAMES MONROE GREGORY.

Eastampton, Mass.—Thomas M. Gregory, youngest son of Principal James M. Gregory, of the Borden-town industrial school, won the individual silver cup for the best of the six speeches delivered in the debate between the Adelphi and Gramma Sigma societies on Friday night at Williston seminary, Eastampton, Mass.
This is the fourth successive time that young Gregory has been on the winning side in these annual public debates at Williston. The representatives of his society argued on the negative of the question, "Resolved, That the United States Government Should Own and Control the Interstate Railroads." His father, Prof. James Monroe Gregory, was for many years a member of the faculty of Howard university, Washington, D. C., and is a native of Cleveland, D., where he is well remembered and known among the older Afro-American residents.
IN ITS TRUE LIGHT.
The State of Virginia is Shown by its Miserable Assembly.
Richmond, Va.—The general assembly of Virginia has completed its labors and made itself notorious by the passage of a general "Jim Crow" street car law. The pen with the governor signed the bill was presented to a briefess lawyer of Newport News, who wishes to keep it as a souvenir of his great legislative achievement.
The measure for the establishment of a school for Afro-American deaf, dumb and blind children, which passed the house last week, struck in the senate. The senate reduced the appropriation from $15,000 to $5,000, which is barely sufficient to purchase a site. This means that there can be no school of this kind for Afro-Americans under four years, as there will be no meeting of the legislature till 1908, and then a fight will have to be made for another appropriation.
The annuity to the Virginia normal and industrial institute, the only state institution for the education of Afro-American pupils, was increased from $15,000 to $17,500, although it was asked to increase the amount to $20,000, $29,500 was asked for necessities, but was denied while each of the sex white institutions received for improvements an increase in annuities from $15,000 to $20,000. Say what you may that which Virginia votes for the education of her colored population is given not only sparingly but grudgingly.

Our Branch May Dissolve Because Central Withholds Some Privileges.
New Haven, Conn.-The Y. M. C. A. of Goffe street, which is a branch of the Central Y. M. C. A. (white) is on the eve of dissolution. This is due to the fact that some privileges are denied the members of the Goffe street branch at the central association. Because of this palpable unchristian act the secretary of the Goffe street branch is now conferring with the board of directors of the central association in order to reach a satisfactory solution of the question involved. In case the Goffe street branch should fail to obtain an amicable adjustment of the matter they will undoubtedly withdraw from the central association, and revert to the old standard of an independent mixed association.
SCORES BIOT CASE JURY.
Police Judge Says Action in Recommending Mercy to Rioters in Springfield is an Outrage.
Springfield, O.—Police Judge Miller Tuesday fined the youthful rioters $1 and costs each and then remitted the same. Before fining the boys he said: "This matter is an outrage. I can do nothing but inflict the nominal fine of $1, as recommended by the jury. This jury was made up of leading business men and manufacturers and their recommendation is an outrage."
Attorney W. H. H. Hart Bankrupt. Washington, D. C.—Attorney Wm. H. H. Hart went into voluntary bankruptcy recently. For a long time he has been carrying a great burden in his farm school imposed upon him by the government of the United States. He has sought relief at the halls of congress for several years, but has been unable to get it, and has had to take the course of nearly all those who have engaged in the great cause of humanity. It is yet hoped that congress will grant relief, but the outlook is dark.

Justice of the Peace Robert H. Ter-
rell, of Washington, D. C., in a burst
of enthusiastic speech, recently said:
“There is no such name as Afro-
American in history.” Of course not
In anclent history, dear friend, be-
cause the word is of too recent coin-
age. It has not been many years
since Everett J. Waring, Esq., of Co-
Jumbus, Ohio, now of Baltimore or
Philadelphia gave the splendid pro-
@uct to our people and the world
But it—the word, - Afro.American—
is in the history of today and 1t will
be in the history of the future. In-
deed it is being put there and right-

ated word is capitalized. For one,
for years we have been mighty tired
of seeing the scum, as well as others,
of every other class, race or nation-
ality on the face of the globe, re-
ferred to in the daily papers and else-
where by words recognized generally
gs proper nouns and therefore capt.
talized, while the word Negro is rare-
ly ever so spelled .outside of some
race newspapers and a few, very few,
leading daily and weekly newspapers,
magazines and fewer books and other
publications. Justice Terrell _pre-
faced his remark with the “playing-
to.the-gallery” exclamation: “I am a
Negro and proud of it!” Why, of
course, Robert, so are we. And we
are equally as proud of being also an
Afro-American. The fact is Squire
Terrell in the language of “Uncle”
Joe Cannon, speaker of the national
house of representatives, is a “durn
sight” more Afro-American than Ne-
gro when critically considered from a
certain viewpoint. But that is an-
other story. Of course we are all
proud of being Negroes, Afro-Amert-
cans. “Colored” people, ete. ‘
Some good bids fair to result from
that recent Chattanooga, Tennessee,
lynching. The mob took an Afro-
‘American who had been sentenced to
hang but for whom the United States
court had granted a stay of execu-
tion. This is what gives the admin-
istration, headed by our brave Presi
dent Roosevelt? authority and an op-
‘portunity to act. Government secret
‘service officers are “rounding up”
members of the mob, especially its
leaders says an apparently inspired
ispatch from Washington, D. C., and
we hope it is true. Congress refuses
‘to even seriously consider an anti.
lynching law for the country, with
[the resilt that federal action against
[the mob werever possible rests with
[the executive and judicial branches of
the government. We shall watch this
|Chattanooza' case with much Interest
and concern because the outcome, if
as indicated in the dispatches referred
jto, will mean much in favor of law
jand order and our people.
If we could see ourselves in the
same light that others view us, the
mere seeing might have the effect to
change our opinions of ourselves and
at the same time to entertain a more
Kindly view of others. Instead of
harboring vain and supercilious no-
tions of our self-superiority and our
immense individual importance, we
might discover our very littleness and
our absolute insignificance compared
with the intrinsic, personal merits of
those who live in realms of purer
thought and action, and upon a more
exalted plane. The person who fan-
eles himself a paragon of perfection
while he finds no redeeming qualities
in his morose, quiet and unpreten-
tious neighbor is not omly unfortu.

Just such people in every circle of
Society, who conceive themselves the
best types in excellence and common
sense and are so wrapt up in dogmat-
ism and concelt, that common sense
and reasoning to them would be a
matter of nonsense. Indeed there are
such people in the world who arc
learned in books and languages, who
possess a superior talent, yet are woe-
fully ignorant in regard to those
courtesies and concessions that are
due to the humblest. Then again,
there is the jiliterdte class, well-bal-
anced and well informed whose gen-
eral knowledge and intellectual grasp
cannot fully comprehend the magni-
tude and scope of great questions, yet
to seem to be wise and learned, are
ready at every instance to depreciate
superior wisdom as a means of exalt-
ing themselves in the estimation of
others. Upon a venture they as-
sume an air of knowing what they do
not know and cannot substantiate,
and consequently through envy and
desperation offer themselves as ma-
ligners, in the attempt to subordinate
learning to ~presumption. — Seeking
every opportunity and advantage to
seem to be wise, they resort to In-
trigue and vituperation, imposing
contempt where Honor is due. ‘Then
there is a highly fained class learned
In the classics and the sciences, who
believe themesives the peers of any
and the inferiors of none, who are
imperious and arrogant, too ready to
assume even against stubborn facts,
because of a lack of breadth and
knowledge of human nature, and of-
times misjudge those who are better
informed than themselves. Then
there are those who discriminate
on account of race and color,
who are eternally parading. the
mistakes and imperfections of others,
while they are laudatory and boastful
of themselves. They make {t a mat.
ter of business to assail the innocent
and weak, and publish to the world
every possible blemish of the Afro-
American without scruple or con-
sclousness that all things human are
frail and imperfect. But could we
see ourselves as others see us and
could we unvail to the world the lit-
tleness and meanness of our own
hearts, or solve the motive and im.
pulse of our degenerate and sinful
hearts, we would no doubt discover
thousands of living mortals among
men and races, who are far better
than ourselves, and in seeing our-
selves as others see us we might

What is a Hypocrite?
Rev. Mr, Doan in his answer the
other evening at one of the mission
services to the question, “What is a
Hypocrite?” said:—\ hypocrite is a
two-faced individual, and there are
two Kinds in the world, one in the
church andpne ovtside the church.
‘There is some hope for the one on the
inside because he 1s learning the
truth and having it hammered into
him, and the chances for him un-
masking are hopeful. But the hypo-
erite on the outside is hopeless. He
finds fault with the occasional hypo-
erite inside the church, and forgets
that he is the larger one of the two,
and that his condition is far worse
than the other. He throws stones but
still he lives in a “glass house,” he
pretends to be too good to associate
with Christians when beneath all his
pretended goodness is lurking some
secret, sin, or some unexpressed un-
beliefand tte hard co unmask uim—

I was riding horseback far in the
country (in Alabama) a few days ago
when I came across an unusually poor
place. A very old and poor black
man was standing before the house.
I stopped in front of him and asked:
“Do you live here, uncle?”
“No sah; I does not. 1 “zist ‘ere,
sah.”
“How Is that?” I asked,
“Bt it jes’ dis way, sah; dis ‘ere

“Why don't you move, then?”
“I's too poor ter mobe, sah; an’ ef
I staht ter do dat, eah, were I ewine?”
And the old man, who had been
overtaken in his old age with his
hands empty, perhaps by no fault of
his, looked ‘far away towards the
lowering clouds that kissed the misty
hilltops, beyond which he would pos-
sibly soon find home and rest from
hunger and longing.

Where faith rod-chastened smiles to

And doff its fears,
And carping sorrow pines and dies—

Shall beat no more within the breast;
‘The darkness clears,
And morn perched on the mountain's
crest
Her form uprears—
‘The day that is 10 come Is best,
Beyond the years.
Beyond the years the soul shall find
‘That endless peace for which it pined,
For light appears,
And to the eves that still were blind
With blood and tears,
Their sight shall come all unconfined
Beyond the years.

SIX KILLED.
Horrible Find in a Min-

BODIES MUTILATED
No Clew as to the Cause of the
Deed— Other Occupants of
House Have Disappeared.
Minneapolis, Minn.—Six murdered
Bulgarian laborers were found
Wednesday in an old house in
this city, and the police are uncertain
how or when the murders were com-
mitted, although the evidence thus
far secured indicates that the men
were killed during a fight among 12
Bulgarians who had rented the house.
‘The six others have disappeared.
‘The police are convinced that rob-
bery was not the cause of all the mur-
ders, as considerable money was
found on the bodies. ‘They also scout
the idea of any secret society with
motives of revenge.
Four of the bodies, horribly cut
and slashed with knives, were found
in a room on the second floor, while in
the cellar were two others with their
throats cut. Near the bodies were
found five large bowie knives and a
hatchet.
‘The two bodies in the basement, ac-
cording to Coroner Kistler, had been
dead nearly two days. The bodies in
the upper rooms appeared to have
been killed more recently.
‘The police say that the men found
in the basement may have been mur-
dered for their money and that a fight
followed upstairs over a division of
the spoils.
‘The bodies found upstairs were
slashed all over, especially about the
faces and the throats. One man had
fallen against a hot stove and the
right side of his face was burned off.
Near the bodies found upstairs were
two money belts containing $506 in
gold. On one of the bodies was found
a watch that was still going. Some of
the bodies had been stripped.
FIRST ARREST.
Grand Larceny Charge Against George
W. Perkins, former Vice President
of New York Life, in Campaign
‘Contribution Case.
New York—On a charge that
his connection with the — egntri-
bution of $48,702.50 from the funds of
the New York Life Insurance Co to
Cornelius N. Bliss, treasurer of the
republican national committee in the
campaign of 1904, constituted grand
larceny in the first degree, George W.
Perkins, a member of the firm of J.
P. Morgan & Co., and until recently
first vice president of the New York
Life Insurance Co., was arrested Wed-
nesday on a warrant issued by Magis.
trate Moss.
When a detective went to serve the
warrant upon Mr. Perkins he found
that a writ of habeas corpus had al-
ready been obtained from Justice
Greenbaum, of the state supreme
court, and the matter was immedi-
ately taken out of the magistrate’s
hands. Mr. Perkins appeared before
Justice Greenbaum and at the request
of his counsel the hearing in the case
was adjourned until Friday. Mr.
Perkins was paroled in.the custody of
his attorney.
Mr. Perkins’ counsel admitted to
Justice Greenbaum that Mr. Perkins
had advanced the sum named to Mr.
Bliss upon the request of the late
John A. McCall, president of the New
York Life. He was afterward reim-
bursed through the action of the com-
pany’s finance committee. It was
contended that Mr, McCall had exeen.
tive authority to order the payment,
and that if any crime was committed
it was participated in by every mem-
ber of the finance committee present
when the matter was acted upon.

The oriental monarch amused himself
by giving a hungry guest a phantom
banquet. Squire Hamilton, says the
Boston Herald, one of the best-known
members of the Maine legal profession
many years ago, once sat at a meagerly
laden board, and in this case the stary-
ing guest was the humorist.
‘The dining-room had been newly and
splendidly furnished, whereas the din-
ner was very slender, While some of
the guests were flattering the host on
his taste in decoration, Squire Hami]-
ton said:
“For my part, 1 would rather see
tess gilding and ‘more carving.”
She Sees to It.
“1 often wonder what makes you so
‘thoughtful of your wife?”
“You wouldn't wonder if you knew
‘my wife better.”—Houston Post.

jory, last week Thursday night was
| unquestionably one of the grandest af-
fairs ever given in the city. A very
large and appreciative audience greet-
ed Mr. White. They fairly bubbled
over with enthusiasm, and it was the
opinion of all present that he stands
pre-eminently at the head as an Afro.
American violinist. The Olympia
guartette, composed of Miss Dazalia
Underwood, Mrs. Anna Smith, Mrs
Genevra Minter and Mrs. Florence
Dunjill Foster, sang beautifully. They
were recently organized. All have
splendid voices, two of them having
taken vocal instructions from Mr.
Harry A. Williams, the marvelous
tenor, who accompanied Mr. White in
his usual artistic manner. ‘The play-
ing of Mrs. C. M. Payton elicited great
applause. After the concert the terp-
|sicorean art was indulged in until 2 a.
'm, Everyone left at that hour high-
ly pleased.
| ‘The reception Monday evening at
Cory chapel tendered Rev. R. L. Dick-
erson, pastor, who left the next day
for conference, proved not only an
enjoyable affair, but in at least one
ae exceptional. In spite of the
inelemency of the weather the church
auditorium was comfortably _ filled.
The orchestra and chotr, under the di-
=: ‘of Chorister Thomas, rendered
about a half dozen selections very sat-
Isfactorily indeed. Miss Ball played a
piano solo most acceptably. She has
‘a very promising® future. A Mrs.
Smith then read a very pleasing selee-
tion. The treat of the evening, how-
ever, was Mrs. Joseph Seelizs’ solo,
“Fabri’s Bird Song,” by Gumbert. She
was in splendid voice and rendered
the beantiful selection with a delib-
verateness indicative of thorough con-
ees and splendid ability It so
thoroughly pleased the audience as to
‘secure for her the most pronounced
encore ofsthe evening. She responded
with “Sing Me To Sleep,” by Greene,
her praise, on the lips of everyone at
ithe close of the reception. ‘The
speakers of the evtning included
Revs. Ira A. Collins, E, D. Dandridge,
J. 8. Jackson and W. M. McElroy;
Messrs, Henry T. Bubanks, Nahum
Brascher and the editor of The Ga-
zette.. To the remarks of the speak-
ers falicitating him upon bis suecess-
ful three years’ pastorate of Cory
chapel, Rey. R. L. Dickerson respond-
Jed in his usual suave manner, thank-
ing his congregation and many friends
‘and indicating thorough appreciation
of the many good things said about
him and his work which he has left
in so splendid a condition. Supper
was served in the basement of the
church, The exceptional feature re-
ferred to above was the eathusiasm
of the audience during and at the
close of the practical talk given by
Hon. Harry C. Smith and the “side-
swipe" given the social settlement

of typhoid left me with weak kidneys. Every night I had to get up frequently to pass the urine, which was ropy, dark and very painful to void. I had no appetite, but drank water continually without being able to quench my thirst. Terrible headaches and dizzy spells oppressed me and my back was lame, sore and stiff.

THELEGALITY
Of Contributions by Insurance Companies to CAMPAIGN FUNDS
To Be Tested by District Attorney Jerome—May Involve Members of National Committee.
New York.—District Attorney Jerome appeared before Magistrate Moss in the Tombs police court Tuesday and applied for warrants to be used in testing the legality of the contribution of insurance companies' funds to political campaign committees. The name of no person was mentioned at the time.
After listening to Mr. Jerome, Magistrate Moss said that before he would issue any warrants in the matter, evidence would have to be presented that a crime had been committed.
To establish this evidence Mr. Jerome asked for the issuance of a number of subpenas in blank to be used in "John Doe" proceedings before the magistrate. Late in the day these subpenas were issued.
In taking this action Mr. Jerome is carrying out the policy he announced last Friday in the court of special sessions last Friday when he defended the opinion he had previously rendered that there had been no crime committed in connection with the campaign contributions.
Mr. Jerome also suggested at that time that if contributing to campaign committees by officers of the insurance companies constituted larceny, the matter involved chairman George B. Cortelou and Treasurer Cornelius B. Cornelius and Republican national campaign committee, in matter of receiving stolen goods.
REBATE CASE
First to Come to Trial in Pennsylvania Under the Elkins Law.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Members of the firm of R. D. Wood & Co. iron manufacturers, with plants at place N. Pearce and in the United States placed on trial in the United States court here Tuesday, charged with accepting rebates from the Great Northern Railway Co. and the Mutual Transit Co. on shipments to Winnipeg. Indictments were found against Walter, Stuart, Richard and George Wood, but at the opening of court the indictments against the latter two were quashed. This is the first缓判 case to come to trial in this state under the Elkins anti-rebate law. The defendants, if convicted, are liable to a fine of $20,000.
The Great Northern Railway Co., C. E. Campbell, its local agent; the Mutual Transit Co. and L. W. Lake, New York agent for the transit company, are under indictment, charged with offering a rebate to the Wood Co. The Mutual Transit Co. and Paul J. Diver, local agent for the company, are also - under indictment, charged with offering a rebate to the National Express Co. George T. Roberts, assistant auditor of the inter-state commerce commission, was the only witness heard Tuesday.
SIX PERSONS ARRESTED
In Connection with Collapse of a Pittsburgh Bank.
Pittsburgh, Pa.—In the face of denials by government officials it was learned Tuesday from an authoritative source that warrants have been issued for four other persons in connection with the bank of the Entebbe national bank, last October. These are in addition to the six persons now under arrest, five of whom were arrested Monday and the sixth, ex-Paying Teller Thomas W. Harvey, who surrendered himself Tuesday. The federal officials declare that the arrests made conclude the criminal proceedings for the present, but it was learned from another source that the officials will not admit the existence of the other four warrants until they have been served. The examination of the affairs of the bank has by no means been concluded and further investigation may result in more arrests.
Assistant United States Attorney Robert M. Gibson said the transactions disclosed by the investigation so far made involve close to $1,000,000.
Congressional.
Washington.—In the senate on the 27th Mr. Tillman and Mr. McCumber spoke on the railroad rate bill. In the house the emergency deficiency bill was under discussion. The house refused to instruct delegates to the international conference to consider the contract with the Monroe doctrine. A few paragraphs of the legislative appropriation bill were considered.
Ended in Bloodshed.
Bluefield, W. Va.'—Bloodshed and death was the ending of a social at the Methodist Episcopal church at Coaldale, near here Tuesday night. One man was killed instantly, as part of her head torn away with a shotgun and several others received serious bullet wounds.
Blue and Gray.
Atlanta, Ga.—The third annual gathering of the Blue and the Gray began here Tuesday and closed Thursday evening.
The largest incubator in the world, with a capacity of 15,000 eggs, has just been completed by W. P. Hall, of Pembroke, N. Y. It is 102 feet long, and 4 feet 4 inches wide. Partitions divide it into 100 compartments, each accommodating two trays. The trays have wire bottoms, and hold 75 eggs each. To fill this incubator a single egg with common—not thoroughbred—eggs would require an expenditure of $6,000, for eggs of the requisite freshness would cost 40 cents a dozen. The incubator will do the work of 1,000 fowls.
STOP, WOMAN!
AND CONSIDER
THE ALL-
IMPORTANT FACT
That in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are confiding your private ills to a woman—a woman whose experience with women's disease covers a great many years.
Mrs. Pinkham is the daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, and for many years underherdirection, and since her decease, she has been advising sick women free of charge.
suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing full well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty impels them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable answers of the family physician. It is unnecessary. Without money or price you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual experience is great.
Mrs. Pinkham's Standing Invitation.
MRS. Pinkham's Standing Invitation:
"Women suffering from any form of
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are received,
opened, read and answered by women
only. A woman can freely talk of her
private illness to a woman; thus has
been established the eternal confidence
between Mrs. Pinkham and the women
of America which has never been
broken. Out of the vast volume of
experience which she has to draw from,
more than 100,000 women she has
gained the very knowledge that will
help your case. She asks nothing in
return except your good-will, and her
advice has relieved thousands. Surely
any woman, rich or poor, is very foolish
if she does not take advantage of this
generous offer of assistance.
If you are ill, don't hesitate to get
a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound at once, and write Mrs. Pinkham
a letter of thanks. When a medicine has been successful
in restoring to health so many women,
you cannot well say, without trying it,
"I do not believe it will help me."

DISFIGURED WITH ECZEMA
Brushed Scales from Face Like Powder—Under Physicians Grew Worse
—Cuticura Works Wonders.
"I suffered with eczema six months. I had tried three doctors, but did not get any better. It was on my body and on my feet so that I hardly put my foot on without touching eczema. My face was covered, my eyebrows came out, and then it got in my eye. I then went to another doctor. He asked me what I was taking for it. My face was a very good thing but that he thought that my face would be marked for life. But Cuticura did its work, and my face is now just as clear as it ever was. I tried to be a markable cure. I feel so thankful I want everybody hard and wise to know that Cuticura can do. It is a sure cure for eczema. Mrs. Emma White, 641 Cherrier Place, Canden, N. J., April 19, 1957.

You see, by combining both implements in one, together with perfect ease of operation, the great saving of time. "I'm sorry," interrupted the manufacturer, "but it will never do. Don't you see, by the end of the summer the averages snow shovel, and is once more due to his lawn mower that he and angry with his shovel with joy, and by the end of the winter he feels just as bitter toward the snow shovel, and is once more due to his lawn mower that he and angry with you combine the two, then he will simply have the memory of one ever before him while he is operating the over.

GET RID OF THE CAS
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Strengthen the stomach and Enable It to Do Its Work.
When the stomach is feeble the food lies in it indigested, decays and throws off poisonous gases that distend the wails of the stomach and cause interference with other organs, especially with the action of the heart and lungs. These gases have other ill effects. The nerves and the brain are disturbed and discomforts such as dizziness, hot flashes, sleeplessness, irritableness and despondency originate from this source. Experience shows that these tremors vanish just as soon as the stomach is made strong enough to distend the food. In other words, its powerful tonic that will rouse it to do the work of changing the environment.
Miss Minerra C. Ladd, of Ipswich, Mass, says: "I had a weak stomach from the time I was a little child. Whenever I took heavy food it would cause terrible faintness, and I would finally vomit what I ate. At times the food would be the most intense through the upper part of my body. For days in succession, I would have to lie down most of the time. The distress was often so great that I could hardly bear it, and the frequent and violent belching spells were very disagreeable, too. "My doctor's medicines gave me little relief, but not until I tried Dr. Williams' Pink Pills that I found a cure. Within three weeks a decided improvement was noticeable. The belching spells were less frequent, the pains through my body were not so intense, my food was retained and after taking the pills for a few weeks longer I found that it was altogether free from the pains. Every dyspeptic should read "What to Eat and How to Eat." Write the Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Schenectady, N.Y., for a free copy.

No cold weather, no coal to buy, less clothing, and, in fact, living is one-half the cost as in the north.

We have the best shipping facilities, both by water and rail, making our lands the best garden spot in the country. This section offers more advantages for the wage earner or the man with a small capital than any spot on this green earth. This land will yield larger profits than you can realize out of northern land worth $150 per acre. The land is a rich sandy loam, with a clay subsol, and grows peaches, pears, grapes, figs and all kinds of small fruits and vegetables in great abundance. Also corn, oats, sweet and Irish potatoes and cotton. This location is famous for its salubrious climate and curative powers. Plenty of creeks and pure spring drinking water.
