THE DAME FASHION'S DECREES BY ELLEN OSMOND Neckwear and Other Accessories of Dress The sheer black waist is a novelty that is meeting with much approval, chiffons and nets well to the fore. The vogue of the black voile suit makes the demand for the thin black waist—the costume idea continuing to rule, waist and skirt of the same color. We also see an, increase in the number of simpler black blouses, a liking for the shirt-waist of black China silk and even the golf shirt appearing in this material and color. Black and white effects, both in cotton and silk, meet with favor at the present, the magpie combination again in style. The combination is noticed in stripes and checks and polka dots, "spots" a feature of the day. Some exceedingly smart costumes in black and white are seen, and some beautiful hats. As a rule this conjunction of colors is effective and becoming, white has a softening tendency and a touch of black generally refines and softens harsh outline and uncertain complexion. White serge suits are trim and decidedly chic these days, made with a severe plainness that gives refreshing after the over elaboration so often seen in summer, so much cheap ready-made finery then on display. And the white linen suits are even more attractive. There are soft white wool hats to wear with the white suits, some with scarcely an trimming at all. In millinery now we find this contrast, flowers piled on flowers, and next door a hat with nothing on it save a single rose. Some of the hats are quite bare on one side, on the other there is massed a perfect tower of trimming. This gives in not a few cases a decided jauniness that is pleasing, but we must say it is only the youthful, jaunty face that can stand such headgear. With the present fashions one may easily make up an evening costume out of pieces gathered from box and bag. Our illustration pictures a gown constructed of various materials and having points that mark it modish. There is a simulated jacket of lace, the floures are of shaded pink chiffon—although other material might be used—the lighter shade at the top. The foilation is an old white silk dress, which has been well cleaned and freshened. Little circles of black velvet ribbon give the touch of black so fashinable. In the corsage some long-stemmed pink posies with plenty The French women do not take to mannish styles in dress as do the English and Americans. Whenever they adopt anything that borders on mannishness they are sure to modify it with little feminine touches. And the combined effect of severity and coquetry is, we must say, both Frenchy and attractive. For instance, take the linen collar as she is worn by a French woman. With the high turn down collar the Parisian adds a dainty tie of lawn, and both collar and tie are hand embroidered. On this side the water we approve her taste, and we, we, go in for hand-made lawn tie with embroidered collar. The lingerie tie is much smart- BROOKLYN A NEW COLLAR AND OUR OLD FRIEND THE CHEMISITTE. er than the usual silk tie; it should be narrow, may be edged with a bit of real lace or may be scalloped, have a buttonholed edge. We do not see, in the rage of the lingerie blouse with its permanent collar, so many fancy stocks as formerly. The separate stocks are those for wear with the tailored waist, elaborate ones as a rule are a part of the blouse. There are separate chemisettes and cuffs to wear with gulpe dresses, which continue in favor. Cuffs are In Uncertain There Is Strength. of green leaves might be placed, and add the finishing note to a costume copied from a French importation. Of course one would have to employ skillful fingers to get the right lines, but the whole may be built up at comparatively small cost. Little lace bridges coats and boleros are the height of fashion; the tall person may indulge in the former, the one of low stature must keep to the latter. One sees the nicest morning frocks—tub dresses to use the phraseology of the day—made up all in one piece. Sometimes the waist and skirt are joined by a girdle of insertion, sometimes the joining is very inconspicuous, just a belt of self material. The most successful frocks at least look simple, no matter how much laborious work has been spent upon them. The other day we saw an apparently simple AFTER A PARIS MODEL. little summer gown that surely cost plenty of money, but undoubtedly would have appealed to a mere man as such a "charming, inexpensive little dress." It was a light ecrn batiste of all-over embroidery, the skirt a short affair gathered into the belt. The waist was a round girlish blouse with sleeves just a puff above the elbow, very like those seen in the old-fashioned pictures of Empire ladies; the girdle a green messaline, having queer gold figures scattered over it. The color scheme was lovely, the dress made by an artist. very deep, the chemisette is ornamented back as well as forre, for so many frocks to-day are cut low or with V back and front. A neat little embroidered collar, one of the high turndowns, has a couple of bows of ribbon as finish, these made-affairs easily slipped in place and with no clumsy band to be adjusted or make the collar bulge. Green silk gloves give touch of verdency to the streets, are accompaniments of not a few costumes. Usually they are of silk, and always match some trimming of the costume, girdle or foliage-adorned hat. They are rather fetching, look cool and pretty with light summer gowns. Some green parasols are abroad, considerable green is used for trimming. Pongee and tussah coaching parasols remain in favor, and they are so smart one does not wonder they hold their own so well. Speaking of green gloves, it may be they are worn because nothing else is to be had—long gloves have become so expensive, in such demand, the dealers say to the manufacturers: "Send anything, anything." Everybody wears short sleeves, everybody wants long gloves. Suede belts the color of the dress lead for street wear. Yesterday we noticed a neat brown costume and over in Paris brown, though rather a warm, dull color for summer, is the thing—the belt a shaped suede that seemed a very part of skirt and blouse. The skirt was a light weight wool and fitted the girlish form perfectly, but without accentuation of the figure. The blouse was a brown pongee made full back and front and with full sleeves coming just to the elbow. The hat was one of those coquettish turbans that this season is responsible for it was all black, the gloves wore black, the low shoes a dull black. Mourning in England. Mourning in England. The polite Englishman who recently criticised Americans for often being content as mourners to wear only a black band encircling the left arm, gave another illustration of his conservatism. His inclination for mourning garments is hereditary. In the England of the early seventeenth century, no sooner had a death taken place than black clothing was sent as a gift by the bereaved family, not only to relatives, but to friends as well. Everything surrounding the chief mourner was put into the deepest black—black hangings on the walls, black coverings on the beds. Funerals were expensive in those days, so expensive, in fact, that among the poorer people a "black bed" was loaned around from family to family. About 1625, it is recorded. Lady Sussex expended more than $1,600 on the funeral of her lord. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 23, 1906. OHIO NEWS Personal, Social, Lodge Church, Literary and Other Notes of Interest.

Y. — Decoration day proved an exceptionally interesting one here this year because the special service of unveiling the monument to the late Judge Albion W. Tourgee was a part of the usual exercises. Nearly 3,000 people were in attendance, the services beginning at 1 o'clock. The various town and village organizations and about 400 school children marched to the Opera House. Music, addresses and the reading of general order number eight constituted the program here. At the cemetery later Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg address was read at the soldiers' monument, and after appropriate music had been rendered, the Tourgee monument was unveiled. This is a beautiful shaft standing on two bases and a die 1212 feet in height; built of Barre gantile of a gray color and was set on May 14. Above the upper base on which is inscribed the name Tourgee is inscribed the judge's full name, Albion Winegar Hale, and the date and place of his birth, Williamsfield, Ashtabula county, O. May 2, 1838, and the date and place of his death, Bordeaux. February 17, 1905, followed by this short quotation: "I pray thee, then write me as one that loves his fellowmen." The Hon. Albert Moot, of Buffalo, delivered the unveiling address. A splendid effort. The Gazette is indebted to the Dansville (N. Y.) Advertiser, Hon. A. O. Bunnell, editor, for the splendid cut of the Tourgee monument used in this issue. Judge Tourgee delivered a Memorial day address at Railroad, N. C. and while there was wandering through the Soldiers' cemetery and discovered the grave of a lost comrade. Hence this poem. I wandered through a burial place, Where mouldering hot土says lay, Neath grassy mounts with head, stones white. By chance I found a comrade's grave, Unknown to brawling fame, To whom the last great battle brought The chariot of flame. A thousand leagues that fair-faced boy Had marched and fought with me, When Treason offered holocaust From Shiloh to the Sea. A vision came as there I knelt; The silent years flew fast; The century that before me lay, Seemed merged with acons past. Tombstone and trophy were no more; Border nor avenue.

He is affable, ready and prompt and is a leading magnate in the management of financial matters. Mr. Church is one of the wealthiest men of the race in the south and is well known in circles of all business men in the country.

SEPARATED, BUT TAUGHT In One School—Berea College Trustees Win Victory in a Race Case, It Is Claimed. Berea, Ky.—According to the printed accounts of the decision in the Berea college case, the trustees of that institution have won the main point for which they contended in the Kentucky court of appeals. One of the college's attorneys said recently: "We informed the court of our willingness to separate the races in the college. That is, we are willing to have separate rooms for the races, but did not wish to maintain schools 25 miles apart as prescribed by the clause of the law, which clause the court declares is unconstitutional. If it is unconstitutional to compel schools to be 25 miles apart, it is unconstitutional to compel them to be any distance apart. So I think we have gained a victory. The trustees are willing to provide separate rooms, classes, lodging and dining rooms; in fact, we have done so, excepting that the pupils of the respective races have sat apart in the same school room. Until I have an opportunity to read the opinion it seems to me the court undertook to say what kind of a law against co-education of the races will stand a test in the courts. The trustees do not attempt to force an equality of the races. What we undertake to do is to provide education for all alike." Sold Like "Hot Cakes." St. Clairsville, O.—Children's day at the A. M.

SENATOR FORAKER LOYAL The New York Sun speaks a powerful truth in its commendation of the United States senate, when it offers Senator Foraker as one of its brightest examples of integrity and honor. In recognition of those rare and exceptional elements of true statesmanship, it remarks: "Mr. Foraker, in standing by his own convictions and voting against the rate bill in the face of a great deal of bitter and even coarse abuse and against the supposed wishes of his constituents, showed conscientiousness and courage. The same praise belongs to other senators who helped to make the bill constitutional. Their manly stand has brought new honor to the senate." But the brave attitude taken by Senator Foraker reflected the best days of the best men of the republic. To this one man, perhaps more than to any other, the eye of the nation is solicitously turned, by the more thoughtful. He proved himself to be uncompromisingly opposed to any measure or proposition looking to base discrimination or an unjust other. Regardless of the action of other senators, he could not afford to compromise his own personal honor nor a single principle of right. Chosen to the senate as the representative of a powerful constituency, he was in duty bound to obey his convictions, and in so doing he could best subserve their interest. In no other way could he so well serve them than by an honorable, intelligent and conscientious discharge of his duty as he saw it. To do otherwise he would render himself an unfaithful servant. If then, any number of his constituents have disapproved his action in the senate, they have so far erred in expecting a public servant to surrender conviction to ambition and compromise. A majority of the people may have for a time taken exception to the views of the senator, but only temporarily. They know the man and they are content in their own belief that as a safe and trusted leader they may depend upon him in the most trying ordeal of the nation. The rate bill has been amended, and has taken shape, until through the instrumentality of Ohio's great senator it has been made to conform to the ideas of universal acceptance. There was a time when Clay, Webster and Calhoun adopted the well known "omnibus bill" upon a compromise. But we live not in an age of compromise. At no period in our history more than now we do find men more fully resolved to adhere to their highest sense of honor, and among these men stands the undaunted and uncomparable senator from Ohio, brave champion in the throng. A COMMON DESTINY A thousand hapless disadvantages or more, bitter and growing, daily confront the Afro-American in the land of his birth. These seem to multiply as he advances along educational and industrial lines. Endowed with a high sense of the responsibilities set before him, he fully realizes the nature of the situation as he views it approximately and remotely. As a man a brother, bound by kindred ties to a common humanity, he has reasons to wonder why this beastly and inhuman discrimination which he has to encounter on either site. Being mutually bound by a common interest to maintain whatever blessings conduce to the welfare of mankind, yet there is an antagonism on the part of the dominant class which with no just reason disputes the right of liberty and happiness to the weaker. Let the Christian world and the American church answer why. We are heirs and joint heirs with Jesus Christ, our elder brother. Then will the Christian world reconcile this glaring discrepancy which flings itself in bold enfrontery in the face of the professed followers of the Redeemer of mankind? In open defiance of God's proclaimed righteousness, we witness now since the world began. This inhumanity and waywardness of man may be traced to the growing deprivacy of the human heart, despite the widening light of science and our new civilization. But oh, the shocking widespread cruelty which implys invades sanctity and wars upon a brother man, becomes the more starting when it is remembered that man is not blind to his own folly. He knows the moral law, he knows the obligations which bind men to duty and righteous dealing, yet he yields to an unholy passion, to the God of ambition and offers himself a very slave to hatred, prejudice and sin. A casual thought reminds us, too, that though the weaker may be dominated by the strong, yet the dominate class well knows how, in the supreme bitterness of their souls, they persecute and denounce each other. If then there exists any superior claim among races, it does not manifest itself in a superior humanity. It is illogical and useless to the branded as inferior and worthless, when indeed the thing which degrades and demoralizes the one is common to the other. Anglo-Americans of the south anmatize and kill the Afro-American, in the spirit and manner of Turks they abuse and butcher each other. The enormity of their crimes is only partially concealed in the glare of their superior civilization. They know very well the impulses which prompt, to deeds of shame and crime, and they know that there is nothing in viciousness practiced by the blacks which is, not native in ferocity to themselves. The Russians embrace the Jews, and they do so because of the prowess of a vicious nature. In our own loved country men are no less vindictive and not less vengeful against each other, as against other attacks of each other, as unbearable feeling of race prejudice is more senseless and more intensified against Afro-Americans on account of their color than any other motive prompting men to deeds of torture and death. Of all dastardly and cowardly acts none in the catalogue of crimes exceeds the one which impels a man to kill his brother man because he carries a black skin. Crimes committed by Anglo-Americans are overlooked or condoned, while for like offences the Afro-American is beaten and tortured and doomed to certain death. And this is Christian America—the land of schools and churches, where men upon bended knee with devout hearts and suppliant voices are found offering prayer to the God of all nations and peoples. This is adorable America—the home of Washington and Jefferson, of Lincoln and Sumner who believed in the purest integrity and honesty, the broadest philanthropy, and who by their lives and example, taught that out of one blood were created all nations to dwell upon the face of the earth.

A True Story of Boosey-Celt Philadelphia, Pa.—An A. O. American was walking along Forty-second street, in New York, one night some years ago, from the depot to the hotel, carrying a heavy dress suit case in one hand and a heavier vise in the other. Suddenly a hand was laid on the valise and a pleasant face of a stalwart young man looked into the Afro-American's face as he said: "Pretty heavy, brother. Suppose you let me take one. I'm going your way." The Afro-American protested, but the man already had the valise and for several blocks they walked on together, talking like two cronies until the hotel was reached. "And that," said Booker T. Washington recently, "is the first time I ever met Theodore Roosevelt." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 23, 1906. Yields of very in.

"I wish to inform you that Cuticura Remedies have put a stop to twelve years of misery I passed with my son. As I was noticed on outing, I was a spot, and I spent a week with different remedies for about five years, but when the spot began to get larger I put him under the care of doctors. Under their treatment the disease spread and the longer the doctors treated him the worse it grew. During the day it would get rough and form like scales. At night it would be better. I was not able to tolerate terrible burning and itching. When I think of his suffering, it nearly breaks my heart. His screens could be heard downstairs. The suffering of my son was terrible to work to, eat, nor could I sleep. One doctor told me that my son's cezema was incurable, and gave it up for a bad job. One evening I saw an amputated Cuticura Ointment. Cuticura and decided to give it a trial. I tell you that Cuticura Ointment is worth its weight in gold, and when I had used the improvement, Ointment I used the improvement, the time I had used the second set of Cuticua, Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent, my child was cured.

The directions he received were so 'adefinite that he found himself on the edge of the town without having come to the house he sought. Then he met an old negro and asked the way of him and learned that the house lay about a quarter of a mile farther down the road. "He ain't no lawyer that I ever heard tell of," answered the negro. "You're sure?" The old negro scratched his head in deep thought. Then a gleam of remembrance lighted his eye. "Now I think of it, boss," he said.

New York's cemeteries, with their 3,155 acres of land, are sufficient for the burial of the city's dead, at the present death rate, for 150 years.

KNOWS NOW Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Case for a Time. It's easy to understand how ordinary people get fooled by coffee when doctors themselves sometimes forget the facts. A physician speaks of his own experience: "I had used coffee for years and really did not exactly believe it was injuring me although I had palpitation of the heart every day. "Finally one day a severe and almost fatal attack of heart trouble frightened me and I gave up both tea and coffee, using Postum instead and since that time I have had absolutely no heart palpitation except on one or two occasions when I tried a small quantity of coffee which caused severe irritation and proved to me I must let it alone. "When we began using Postum it seemed weak—that was because we did not make it according to directions—but now we put a little bit of butter in the pot when boiling and allow the Postum to boil full 15 minutes which gives it the proper rich flavor and the deep brown color. "I have advised a great many of my friends and patients to leave off coffee and drink Postum, in fact I daily give this advice." Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.

FREED AT LAST! Wheeler Kimbro Gets Justice and Vindication-Martin and Stratton's Cases. Fremont, O.—The decision of the circuit court judges was received in the Wheeler Kimbro case the 15th, and proved a sweeping exoneration of the accused. It will be recalled that Kimbro, Stratton and Martin, three young Cleveland Afro-Americans, were filling the places of strikers here in the Claus Sheer Works and were set upon by a number of them and their followers, while on the street one evening last year. In defending their lives from the mob, they were forced to shoot in self defense. This was fully proven in the trial and also that the accused, Kimbro, was knocked down and wounded before he shot. It will undoubtedly follow that the case of Martin who is serving a ten year sentence in the penitentiary shall be reopened and be released from his unjust imprisonment. It is simply the upholding of the constitution which grants to all men the use of any means to retain their right of personal security. Attorney Love has worked indefatigably and conscientiously in the interest of these young men and the circuit court's reversal of the former decision is a reward of his efforts. Stratton is on ball and will never be tried as his and Kimbro's cases are similar.
