THE
TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR. NO. 5.
$7,000,000 DEFICIT
Is Found After Its President, Frank K. Hipple, Dies—He Deceived the Bank's Directors.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Unable to meet its obligations because of the large amount of money loaned on insufficient security by its president, now dead, the Real Estate Trust Company of Philadelphia, which up to last Saturday was considered one of the strongest financial institutions in the city, closed its doors Tuesday. Soon after the doors closed George H. Earle, jr., a prominent financier, was appointed receiver. The liabilities of the company are placed at $10,000,000, against which there are quick assets of about $3,500,000 and collateral of about $8,000,000 which is not negotiable readily. Consequently, this doubtful collateral is held mostly as security for loans of about $5,300,000 made to Adolf Segal a promoter of this city.
The man responsible for the failure was Frank K. Hipple, one of Philadelphia's best known citizens, who died suddenly last Friday in his country home at Bryn Mawr, near here, under circumstances which, in the light of Tuesday's developments, lead to the suspicion that he may have committed suicide.
Mr. Hipple, in addition to being president of the Real Estate Trust Co. was treasurer of the board of trustees of the general assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States and of several other church funds, and was a director of the Franklin national bank. Recently Mr. Hipple's acco
For the loans to Adoif Segal, Hipple accepted as collateral securities of the Majestic hotel, a big new apartment house operated by Segal, the Swedish Steel Co., of Laneaster, Pa. and the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining Co., of this city. The steel company and the sugar refining concern have never been placed in operation. Segal claims the collateral he gave is good and that he will meet all his obligations.
There are others to whom Hipple loaned money on insufficient security, but their names have not been made public and the sums are not believed to be large. How far Hipple benefited in the loans made or whether he was merely the tool of others is yet to be determined.
In order to hide the true condition of the company and save himself, Hipple responded to the falsification of his reports, which were accepted true by the directors. He used what the receiver termed a "double system" of making reports. When the state bank examiner called, Hipple presented to him good securities to offset the loans made, and when the president made his reports to the directors he would show them a bundle of securities and along with these he would exhibit the certificate of the bank examiner which showed that the accounts the examiner had investigated were correct. The directors supposing the securities shown them were the same, approved the reports.
BOYCOTTING IS ILLEGAL.
A Baker is Awarded $6,000 Damages for Injuries to His Business.
Racine, Wis.-Union labor was on Tuesday dealt a heavy blow by the decision of Circuit Court, Judge Chester A. Fowler, of Fond Du Lac, in the boycott suit for $25,000 damages brought by Otto B. Schultz, a Racine baker, against the trades labor council, Benjamin Dressen and others.
The decision holds illegal the contract exacted from the boss bakers by the union men, in an effort to enforce the closed shop. The trades council and the individual members are enjoined from using the "unfair list." The boycott is declared an actionable conspiracy to accomplish a criminal or unlawful purpose; Schultz is allowed to recover damages of $2,500 for the loss of profits from the time of the commencement of the boycoting acts up to the time of the trial, and $2,500 in damages for the amount of injury to his business and property in relation to its selling value.
The court declares that the contract union sought to*force on the boss bakers "was in itself an illegal contract, in that it would by its terms obligate the plaintiff to employ union labor only as distinguished from non-union labor, and it would obligate him to maintain a "closed" as distinguished from an "open shop."
A. Slan at Senator Tillman:
Columbia, S. C.—Scattering returns from Tuesday's democratic primary indicate that M. F. Ansel will lead the ticket for governor. For attorney general Frazer Lyon has a large lead. The election of Ansel and Lyon means defeat for the state dispensary and Senator Tillman.
Would Not Run on Democratic Ticket.
New York — William Randolph Hearest said Tuesday that he would not be a candidate for governor at the next election on the democratic ticket.
In Union There is Strength.
MR. BRYAN HOME AGAIN
The Democratic Leader Returns to This Country After a Tour of the World.
New York. — Under gray skies, but in exuberant spirits and bronzed by the suns of many climes during a year of travel completely around the world, Winiam Jennings Bryan, of Nebraska, twice the nominee of the democratic party for president of the United States and already endorsed as the candidate in 1908, came up New York Bay Wednesday afternoon on the steamer Princess Irene and received an ovation from large welcoming parties which went down to quarantine to meet and cheer the incoming vessel and its distinguished passenger.
Mr. Bryan did not enjoy his usual health during the voyage, but he was much better yesterday and said he felt sure he would be able to carry out the plans which have been made for him during the next few days. He was very much fatigued when he boarded the steamer and during the entire voyage suffered from indigestion and severe headache. His illness was not serious enough to interfere with his work, however, and he devoted his time on the ship days at sea in preparing speeches and keeping up his correspondence.
Mr. Bryan will not land in New York proper until this afternoon, when he will be received at the Battery by prominent democrats from all parts of the country and escorted to the hotel where he will make his headquarters while here. He was taken off the Princess Irene by special permission of President Roosevelt shortly after the vessel had anchored in quarantine. First he went aboard two white and been chartered by "Bryan Nebuske Holks," where he was exultantly greeted and laughed as the next president.
He then went aboard the little yacht Illini, owned by his friend and schoolmate, Edward F. Goltra, of St. Louis, and where such well known democrats as Norman E. Mack, national committeeman for New York, and Daniel J. Campau, national committeeman for Michigan, were awaiting him, in the Illini Mr. Bryan was in the yacht the yacht club at Stapleton, State Island landed and was whirled away in an automobile to the home of Lewis Nixon, on the heights of Tompkinsville, and overlooking the harbor.
SPIRIT OF REVOLT SPREADS
Outlook in Cuba Is 'Not Favorable to the Government.
Havana, Cuba. — The surrender Wednesday of some of the more vigorous insurgent leaders in the provinces of Matanzas and Santa Clara and the coming in of a scattering few insurgents in response to the government's proffer of amnesty is vastly more than offence by the insurgent senate, strong daily in the country districts of the provinces, of Havana, Pinar Del Rio and Santa Clara, and which now is reported to be gaining headway in Santiago, from which province, however, there are as yet no reports of the existence of organized bands.
The testimony of persons arriving here from the country is unanimous to the effect that the people are restless and becoming more and more excited. The talk of the towns is of those who have gone out to join the insurgents and the chances of winning against the government. There are grave doubts of the loyalty of recruits and especially of negro recruits, suspected in many quarters of a willingness to join the other side, with which many of their people are identified.
The undeniable evidence of the growth of insurrection sentiment is causing increasing doubt as to whether the government will be able to cope successfully with the movement.
Meanwhile a rapid five artillery corps is being organized under American officers, ammunition and guns unpacked and the Castillo de la Pinta Fronting on the harbor entrance, is the scene of the greatest activity.
DID NOT TOUCH CHURCH FUNDS.
Money's Belonging to Presbyterian Societies Were Not Used by Banker Hipple.
Philadelphia, Pa.—Receiver George H. Earle on Wednesday took charge of the affairs of the Real Estate Trust Co., which failed because of the heavy loans made by Frank K. Hipple, late president, to Adolf Segal, a promoter, upon insufficient security. Mr. Earle completes his investigation, the exact condition of the company's affairs cannot be told. The receiver, however, expressed the belief that the trust funds are intact.
John H. Converse, a director of the company and one of the foremost Presbyterian laymen in the country, upon petition the receiver was appointed, said he was satisfied that the securities of the various Presbyterian church boards are safe. The Presbyterian hospital, of which Mr. Hipple was treasurer, yesterday elected the Fidelity Trust Co. as his successor and through that concern learned that the institution's securities, amounting to $1,500,000, are intact.

Nativa African Kings.
Paris, France.—Another king has come to Paris, but, though he is wealthier than King Sisowath, of Cambodia, and drives around in a luxurious automobile which belongs to him and is not lent by the French government, like that in which King Sisowath drove, he has not attracted anything like the attention which centered about the Oriental king of the ballet. King Bonna N'Diaye, King of Goloss, is one of the rulers of Dahomey, who were made prisoners by Gen. Dodds. He has a thorough education, and has managed to become governor of one of the provinces which were taken from him. He has acquired considerable wealth through judicious investments, and spends most of his time shopping, but never goes into a store. The majority of his purchases are jewelry, and he has everything brought out to his automobile for inspection. King N'Diaye is black.
Dr. J. R. Norrell, Health Officer.

The Men Who Will Battle at Goldfield
EDMUND H. DEAS.
Re-elected Chairman of the State Republican Executive Committee of South Carolina.
Columbia, S. C.—The republican state convention met recently for the purpose of electing a state chairman and reorganizing the executive committee. The only contest of the convention was the selection of a chairman. The faction led by John G. Cappers supported Edmund H. Deas, an Afro-American, who was elected by a vote of 88 to 26 over John R. Tolbert, supported by another faction headed by District Attorney Ernest F. Cochran. No Afro-American in the state is more eminently fitted for the trying duties of the position than Mr. Deas and we heartily congratulate him upon his selection. Capers and his friends dominated and were in complete control of the convention. Resolutions were adopted congratulating the country on its continued prosperity, commending the work of both houses of congress and the patriotic president of the United States. It was decided not to put out a state ticket.
MITCHELL SCORED!
In a Meeting—Resolutions Adopted—
The "Loyal Legion of Labor"
Scheme.
Youngstown, O.—The following resolutions were adopted in a meeting held here, and were published in the Akron Beacon Journal of August 9:
"Whereas, Strife, division and con-
tention are antagonistic to the welfare
and well-being of the people."
"Whereas, There has not come to our city any movement that has caused more division, strife and confusion than the Loyal Legion of LaBauza." "Whereas, The leading colored citizens of Youngstown, East Liverpool,
Joe Gans was born at Baltimore, Md., November 25, 1876, and is, therefore, nearly 30 years of age. He began fighting in 1894, at the age of 18. He stands five feet 6¼ inches and weighs now 139 pounds. Of 145 ring battles he won a total of 113, 48 by knockout, 61 by referee's decision and four on fouls. He lost six fights, one by knockout and five by referee's decision. There were 12 draws, 12 "no decisions" and one fight stopped. Gans has won 78 per cent. of all his fights of every nature. The man who knocked Gans out was Geo. McFadden, at New York, April 14, 1899. Gans won practically all his fights in Philadelphia, but is not accredited with them for the reason that the Quaker City seldom allows a decision.
Springfield, Xenia, Chillicothe, Zanesville and Akron, respectively, of the state of Ohio, joined this organization to learn to their chagrin that it was without foundation; therefore, be it
"Resolved. That it is unfortunate in the extreme that such a well meaning people as both the white and colored citizens of Youngstown should have been deceived in this organization
"Resolved. That inasmuch as wherever this organization is allowed to operate that strife and division exists among the colored race and it is lowered in the estimation of the white race, that we condemn the organization.
"Resolved. That if our white friends would spend some of our money in investigating this evil, this avenue of strategy for an individual livelihood, the evil would cease.
"Resolved. That the white citizens must know that the Negroes of this city have entrusted money to the founder of this organization to no advantage, and that they have given money to the same to no advantage to Negroes of this city or any other place.
"Resolved. That the white citizens should demand of Z. W. Mitchell satisfaction as to how the $2,235 which he collected in the year 1905 in this city has been expended. Also how the $5,000 that was reported in the Telegram to have been received in
this city by Z. W. Mitchell was expended.
"Resolved. That we solicit both the Telegram and Vindicator to publish the names and amounts of the donors in 1905 which we have in our possession.
"Resolved. That we solicit our white friends who are interested in this movement to correspond with James A. Flid, of Ravenna, also H. Thompson, of the Enterprise furniture store in Ravenna, where the supposed state home of the Loyal Legion of Labor is located. These white citizens claim that they will open the eyes of the public, both white and black.
"Resolved. That we denounce Z. W. Mitchell as an impostor and deceiver of our race in that he has been collecting money for ten or 15 years with a pretense of helping his race.
"Resolved. That the two daily papers be furnished each a copy of these resolutions for publication and that copies be furnished all the presses available.
"Resolved. That we beg of the righteous public to cease donating to Z. W. Mitchell until he has shown in reality some tangible results of the money collected.
Respectfully submitted.

San Francisco, Cal.-Jas. J. Jeffries picks Gans to beat Nelson in the Goldfield fight. He says: "If Gans and Nelson fight on the square the black man will walk away with the money. So far as Nelson and Gans are concerned as fighters, it is like a superb race horse running against a dray horse. Nelson is gritty and willing and also strong, but he is a truck horse compared to Gans."
Atlanta, Ga.-The seventh annual session of the National Negro Business league, of which Bocker T. Washington is president, opened Wednesday with 1,000 negroes from all parts of the country present.
GEN. QUENTIN BANDERAC.
A Hero of the Cuban Army of Liberty
—A Great General Killed.
Havana, Cuba—Gen. Quentin Banderas, the Afro-Cuban and most daring insurgent in this province, recently laid in the morgue with the bodies of two milatto comrades. A detachment of 38 mounted rural guards were searching throughout the night for the Banderas party. At 9 o'clock in the morning the guards were 20 in number. By Banderas' followers upon the insurgents they had the exception of their chief and his two leading comrades all escaped. The guards made them a special object of attack, and all three received several bullet wounds and were horribly mutilated by machete cuts. Banderas was about 60 years old. He took prominent part in the ten years' war, as well as in the war for Cuban independence. He was well known in every province of Cuba, was a great general and had great influence with the people.
"Special" Jim Crow Cars.
Instead of running "special" Negro trains to the Business league which meets in Atlanta, and the National Baptist convention which meets in Memphis, why do not these two powerful and influential bodies each make a test, as interstate passengers, of the "Jim Crow" law do the south? The courts have held these laws do not apply to interstate passengers, why then do our best, most influential and strongest financial citizens, submit to a thing which they know to be a wrong, perpetrated against Negro men and women simply because they submit to the same?
The Business league with its wealth, bearing and standing, ought to let one of its number from the north, east or west make a test case and then get behind it and see what results they will obtain. The National Baptist convention with her big men coming from every section into the south, owes to itself and to the Negroes of the country, not to submit like dumb, driven cattle to these degrading conditions. If these two powerful Negro organizations are willing to run around these conditions by means of
Battling Nelson was born at Copenhagen, Denmark, June 5, 1882, and is therefore a little over 24 years old. He began fighting in 1896, when 14 years old. He is 5 feet and 7 inches in height and weighs when in natural condition about 135 pounds. In his spectacular 10-year career Battling Nelson has appeared in the ring 75 times, not counting numerous exhibitions. In all that time Nelson has never been knocked out. Of 46, of which 24 were by knockout, 21 by referee's decision, and one on a foul. He lost 10 fights, nine by referee's decision and one on a foul.

Cleveland, Saturday, Sept. 1, 1906.
THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country.
Vice President Fairbanks' address at Columbus last Saturday seems to have been an exceptionally sensible one.
Dr. J. R. Norrell, recently elected health officer of Richmond, Ind., a graduate of a Cleveland medical college, will please accept congratulations.
There is no question as to which way William Jennings Bryan leans, as between the south and Afro-Americans. The same has always been true of democracy, the head and body of which is in the south and the tail in the north.
The Columbus, O., State Journal of August 27, 1906, in nearly a column article on its first page charged that "all sorts of gambling games flourish at the Ohio colored educational and industrial show. Barkers and 'cappers' busy. Even the old shell game runs on 'ladies day.'" We hope the Journal erred.
Those Salisbury, N. C., printers who published alleged souvenir cards portraying the three AfroAmericans lynched recently, ought to be severely punished. The postoffice department at Washington, D. C., should see that this is done as well as stopping the cards from being sent through the mails.
Pugilism is a sort of "sport" that we have never taken interest in and are decidedly opposed to. However since our opposition will not stop it, and Gans and Nelson are to fight for a championship on Labor day at Goldfield, Nev., our best wishes to the fullest extent go out to Joe Gans, the Afro-American and wonderful fighter. May he win is our prayer.
The Atlanta (Ga.) News and "Rev."
Tom Dixon are encouraging a reorganization in the south of the notorious Ku Klux Klan, and the former has placed a premium on mob violence by offering a reward of $1,000 for the lynching of an Afro-American charged with criminal assault. These are signs of southern progress (?) and true indications of what the "new south" really is.
We sincerely trust that the impending struggle between two factions of our national order of Elks over the change of the meeting place from Brooklyn, N. Y., to Columbus, O., will not prove as serious as many fear It seems that B. T. Howard, G. E. R. of the order, made the change soon after members were arrested in New York state under the Grattan law for wearing Elk pins. A little forbearance ought to bring about a reconcilation.
Bishop Phillips and his wife, traveling from Nashville to Chicago recently in a Pullman sleeper, were interstate passengers. In spite of this fact they were "Jim Crowed" while passing through Tennessee and Kentucky. Here is an opportunity for two suits to test the validity of the "Jim Crow" car laws of southern states in the cases of interstate passengers, which our "national" organizations and Bishop Phillips cannot afford to let pass.

Brown, Tex., is to be abandoned This is punishment for the business men of Brownville, Tex., and that vicinity who got most of the soldiers' money who were quartered there This is in addition to the white man killed and the chief of police's loss of an arm which had to be amputated as the result also of a soldier's shot. The investigation of the trouble shows beyond the shadow of a doubt that the Afro-American regulars, none of whom were injured in the melee, were goaded into retaliation by the contemptible treatment of prejudiced whites of the town.
The governors of North and South Carolina are to be encouraged in their very practical efforts against lynching in their states. In North Carolina one mob leader has been convicted and given a long term in the penitentiary of that state, and the legal authorities are after others with the intention of giving them similar doses. The governor of South Carolina has started in by ordering the indictment of the miserable sheriff who handed the victim over to the mob of white brutes that lynched him before his (the governor's) appeal that the law be observed, was hardly finished. This is indeed encouraging.
Senator Foraker is right—it would be foolish and a serious party mistake for the state convention to fail or even hesitate to endorse both of our United States senators as well as President Roosevelt. Our republicans are too wise to listen seriously to the fault-finding of a few malcontents who are endeavoring to precipitate a fight and thus助 the enemy, democracy, in this fall's campaign. That Senators Foraker, Dick, Congressmen Burton and Keifer and other Ohio republican representatives in congress, have not always thought and voted as the president would have them, is no political crime. On the contrary, since they were conscientious and honest in the course they pursued, it is to their everlasting credit, and we believe President Roosevelt who knows a man "when he meets him," feels as does every other loyal, intelligent, fair minded and manly republican of this state, and accords to them the right and privilege to honestly differ and vote their convictions. There will be a harmonious meet, one that will give no encouragement to democracy, when Ohio republicans gather in state convention at an early date. Mark that.
Fighters Pick Gans to Wi
Battling Nelson's chances of defeating Joe Gans are very slim, if the opinion of many prominent pugilists counts for anything. The prevailing sentiment is that the fighting wonder will win in a gallon, and as several have met both men they are in a position to judge.
Here is what they say:
Terry McGovern—Gans for mine.
He is the marvel of the prize ring.
Young Corbett—Nelson is a great fighter, but Gans is the class. He is the daddy of us all.
Jimmy Britt—Have fought them both, and Gans is 75 per cent, the better man.
Willie Lewis—Nothing to it but Gans. He has a sleep potion in both hands, and is the greatest general in the ring.
Willie Fitzgerald—It will be curtains for the "Battler" long before the fifteenth round.
Sailor Burke—The man with the punch is the best bet and that's Gans. Tom Sharkey—The Dane will think he ran against a man-of-war when Joe hits him, and I don't think he can miss.
A. Bishon "Jim Crowed"
Chicago, Ill.—Rt. Rev. Dr. C. H. Phillips, a bishop of the C. M. E. church in Tennessee, North Carolina, Texas and portions of New Mexico and Arizona, and his wife were ejected from a Pullman sleeping car at the south enroute to Chicago because a white passenger objected to their presence. After the train crossed the river into Illinois the conductor allowed Bishop and Mrs. Phillips to return to their Pullman berth. The "man" upon whose objection they were ordered out of the car was irving McGrew, a farmer living near Purlaski, Tenn. The bishop said: "When I purchased the "Pullman ticket at Nashville the agent knew I was an Afro-American. He made no objection whatever. As long as he sold me, the ticket the Pullman company should have protected me."
Colored Troops in the South
The facts of the situation at Brownsville, Tex., seem to be that the army uniform did not protect the Negro soldiers of the Twenty-fifth regular infantry from insults and abuse due solely to their color; that they resented such treatment more vigorously than is the wont of colored civilians, which was not surprising in view of the pride all soldiers take in their uniform and their familiarity with weapons. * * *
The colored soldiers have an admirable reputation for bravery in the field and for high discipline at all times, but when stationed at posts in the south are always exposed to insult and bodily peril; and to refrain from retaliation in kind requires a degree of self-control not exhibited as a rule by the "superior race" and not at all consistent with the traditions or calling of the professional fighting man. * * * -Cleveland Plain Dealer.
An Act of White Brutes.
Washington, D. C.—Acting Postmaster General Hitchcock has instructed Postmaster Ramsey, at Salisbury, N. C, to prohibit souvenir postal cards of lynchings from passing through the mails. Hundreds of postal cards portraying the gruesome sight of three Afro-Americans dangling from the limb of a tree were printed by a Salisbury firm, soon after the lynching. These cards were placed on sale. Large numbers were sold and purchasers began sending them broadcast through the mails. Postmaster Ramsey has ordered that all such cards be held pending investigation by the Washington authorities. One of the cards was mailed to this city. The clothing of the hanging victims is shown in the picture to have been torn from their bodies. Numerous bullet wounds are shown.

Cooper, of Cleveland, left Sunday for Columbus for his wife and boy.
The Sheriff Ordered Indicted.
Columbia, S. C.-Gov. Heyward ordered the indictment and prosecution of Sheriff Linehouse, of Dorchester county, for failure to prosecute Willie Spain, who was lynched at St. George recently. The charge that the sheriff surrendered the Afro-American without an effort to give him proper protection followed a coroner's inquest into the man's death. The sheriff says he surrendered him to the mob for "investigation."

UPRISING IN CUBA
When the government was issuing its proclamation offering pardon to rebels who would lay down their arms its forces were dealing the most telling blow that has yet been struck against insurgents in the field. That the insurrection is in a shaky condition seems to be a fact, although the end may not be as near as members of the government claim. The revolt in Matanzas province has been crushed. The rural guards, reenforced by a detachment of volunteers, encountered the last rebel band left in that section of the island and completely defeated them. A considerable number of insurgents are known to be returning quietly to their homes in the province of Havana and in the eastern part of the province of Pinar del Río. The government has discovered that the movements of Pino Guerre and other important revolutionary commanders are directed by a committee of revolutionary veterans in Havana. This practice will be broken up and several arrests are expected.
Santa Clara is becoming a thorough insurrectionist stronghold and even larger towns have taken up arms against the government.

Fashion's Modes of the Moment
THE LADY OF THE RAIN
White Alpaca and Flowered Muslin Gowns.
Just another word in addition to what was said last week as to the rage for white. It would hardly seem necessary to say that the woman over 40 is as free in her use of the white costume as the younger woman, for one at all in touch with the whirl of modern life has ocular demonstration every day of this fact, but those who do not live in the great stress, and do not have dressmakers who are constantly urging the wearing of clothes that grow younger and younger, need reassuring on this point.
have seen is one sleeves with collar of flap turn-down type collar turn away The latter, although comfortable for be worn by few women. With the high waist becomes the one who can wear a and though the idea ing incongruous, the actual very attractive.
As to trocks, soft.
When a woman gets too old for pink, blue and majenta, she rightfully adopts white and grey for her own. But this age is not anywhere near 40. It comes in somewhere near 58 or 60. It is only a question of time when women everywhere will get used to the verdict that black is necessary for mourning and for nothing else, but as we stated last week even in the matter of mourning there is a change taking place and white is coming into favor.
Wear black if you will but let it be because you must be economical or because you want one black gown because it is becoming. Don't say that you do not intend to follow the fashions of those giddy butterflies who want to appear young. Don't contend that the ways of the city are not your ways. Don't do an old fashioned, out of date thing simply because a group of women in your town do it. Follow the world and not a local set. You will find that if you are right that set will follow you.
Linen is proving preeminently the modish material for the more substantial waists, but good linen is expensive and for women who cannot afford to pay high prices for their waists there are models in madras and in the serviceable English plaque. One of the most popular which we
Styles for the Boys and Girls
Fashion is turning her attention to children's garments, and importations in this direction show distinct and separate influences for the two sexes. For boys, English styles are eminently the thing, while for maids, hats, coats and gowns must express the Parisian touch. Even with garments made in this country, London's taste stamps the boy thing, and smart mammas will spend much time in choosing the correct English and Scotch textures, which are first choice everywhere for masculine wear. For the younger boy the linen collar is a turn-down Eton affair, with a soft silk tie. The four-in-hand is worn by the bigger boy, whose collar is in the various high forms. For afternoon dress for lads of long-trouser ages some very smart suits are seen in somber gray mixtures, with which derby hats are worn.
in the new things for girls plaids and checks take so prominent a part that the instinct comes to discuss only the many charming patterns in these stylish materials, which, while always appearing with autumn, are likely to have a greater vogue than ever. Along with them are seen plaid and floral patterns, for example for plain stuffs, narrow and wide dress brads and hat ribbons in enormous variety appearing among these. As to gown textures, English and
IF NOT AIR, THEN USE SAND.
The Life-Saving Device of an Autoist Stranded Down in Jersey.
"I find," said a man who has not yet come to own a buzz wagon, "that automobile tires are filled with other things than air. Down on the Jersey coast the other day I saw a man filling a tire with sand.
"This tire had apparently—for the men in the auto appeared to be cool and competent men who knew what they were about—become broken in such a manner that it could not be repaired to stand inflation on the spot, but they wanted something in it so they filled it with sand. At the place where they were when the tire collapsed the road ran close to the ocean front, and they took the tire off the wheel and one of the men climbed with it down the bulbhead to the beach and there he set to work.
"When he had worked in a lot of sand he would hold the tire up and shake the sand down in it and then
have seen is one with the short sleeves with collar of either the high flap turn-down type or with the low collar turning away from the throat. The latter, although it looks temptingly comfortable for hot weather, can be worn by few women past their youth. With the high collar, however, the waist becomes practical for anyone who can wear a shirt waist at all, and though the idea of a short sleeve tailored waist strikes one at first as incongruous, the actual thing is really very attractive. As to frocks, soft silks, radiums, foulards, etc., are in favor. The Peking stripe radiums are very popular, and there are many charming small designs in the new foulards, combining shadow stripes and dots with printed and broche figures in one harmonious shadow.
Lace enters into the trimming of almost all of these frocks, and new effects are obtained by the insetting of lace and the use of silk bands or motifs applied over this lace, or by the use of soutache braiding over inset lace.
The light gray frock has not yet run its course and is a useful all around frock for the woman of limited wardrobe.
The gowns shown in our illustration are of white alpaca and flowered muslin. The first of white alpaca is trimmed with stitched bands of alpaca, held by circles. The short coat shows a shirt of blue and white batiste, while the hat is of the Punchinello order in pale blue, with rosettes of blue on either side.
The flowered muslin has full skirt trimmed on the hem with alternate flouces of lace and muslin. A lace collar outlines the muslin bodice and displays a fine lawn chemisette. The mushroom hat is bound with black velvet and covered with pink roses velled with tulle.
Scotch wools are shown alongside French and domestic silks, which, if they have no national authority for their elaborate pretension, reveal many new and captivating beauties. Everything from the tiniest square check to one checker-board big is

he would put in some more, and so on till he had the tire filled.
"This was something new to me, but a friend tells me he has seen it done before and that sand in the tire is better than nothing, that it will cushion the tire in some measure at least and keep the machine from pounding down on that wheel with its sheer dead weight."—N. Y. Sun.
Athletic California Women.
One of the California women's rowing clubs does not stop short at the management of light craft, but practices the heavier rowing of the navy.
Their club house is a ship, they wear a dress something like that of a blue jacket, and they do not hesitate on occasion to go aloft.
Jawbreakers.
A man named John Tysciewicz has had his name changed to John Tidd. If Tidd is the American for Tysciewicz, such words as bid, bid, hid, kid, lid, etc., must be regular jawbreakers in some languages.

Atum: Gaking Powder ts ‘wholesome.
Dr. Herman Reinbold, the expert
German chemist, in a recent oficial
report concerning Baking Powders,
declares that a pure alum baking pow-
der is better and less injurious than
the so-called cream of tartar powders.
He says that if the quantity of alum
contained in @ sufficient quantity of
baking powder for a batch of bread or
eakes for an prdinary family, be con-
eentrated to ‘one mouthful of food.
and taken into the stomach of any
‘one person, no matter how delicate,
it could do no harm. On the contrary,
‘alum is wholesome in proper quanti
ties. This is undoubtedly the reason
the State of Missour! quiekly repeated
a law that probibited the manufacture
‘of the most wholesome of all baking
powders. So much for Alum Baking

YOUNG COLONEL IN DILEMMA
Ways of War Were a New Thing to
His Understanding.
At the Army and Navy club in
Washington a number of veteran off
cers were telling stories, when Gen.
Chaffee told this anecdote of Gen.
Carr, who died in New York some
years ago: |
It appears that Gen. Carr, at the
outbreak of the civil war, had left
‘Troy to take command of « regiment.
‘The engagement in which, as colonel,
he first figured was at Big Bethel. His
regiment had been halted for rest
and refreshment in a pleasant place
and had not yet experienced the ex-
citement of a skirmish. It happened
however, that confederates were in
ambush in the immediate neighbor:
hood and from a safe hiding place
they opened fire on the northerners
Garr, so the story runs, instantly put

DUBIOUS
About What Her Husband Would Say.
‘A Mich. woman tried Postum Food
Coffee because ordinary coffee dis-
agred wtih her and her husband. She
writes:
“Hy husband was sick for three
years with catarrh of the bladder, and
palpitation of the heart, caused by
coffee. Was unable to work at all
and in bed part of the time.
“I bad stomach trouble, was weak
and fretful so I could not attend to
‘my housework—both of us using cof-
feo all the time, and realizing it was
harmful.
“One morning the grocer's wife
sald she believed coffee was the cause
of our trouble and advised Postum.
T took it home rather dubious about
what my husband would say—he was
fond of coffee.
“But I took coffee right off the
table, and we haven't used a cup of
ft since. You should have seen the
change in us, and now my husband
‘ever complains of heart palpitation
‘any more. My stomach trouble went
away in two weeks after I began Pos-
tum.’ My children love it and it does
them good, which can't be said of
coffee.
“A lady visited us who was always
half sick. I told her I'd make her a
cup of Postum. She said it was taste-
Jess stuf’, but she watched me make
it, boiling it thoroughly for 15 min-
utes, and when done she said it was
splendid. Long boiling brings out the
flavor and food quality.” Name given

said the gentleman. “I remember
‘ance a boy chum of mine became af
Micted with a large swelling or abscess
in hig throat, which was growing rap-
idly and threatening to make breath-
ing impossibie.
“Dr. X— was called In. After ex
amining the patient, he turned to the
mother with the command to bring
him a red-hot poker. As he was never
questioned or disobeyed, the woman
hastened to heat one in the kitchen
fre.
“When she brought ft to the sick
room the doctor grabbed it and sd-
vanced to the bedside with the gleam-
ing polnt leveled at the boy's head.
“Open your mouth, sir,’ he com-
mandgd.
“The boy did open his mouth to
emit a terrified shriek—which broke
the abscess and saved his life.
“Lhave safd that Dr. X— was never
Alsobeyed, but I recollect now one oc-
easion on which a family attempted
to set his orders at defiance. You see,
he was really more intelligent than
the run of way out country doctors
of those days. He went to Holland
for a year of study when he was
young and brought back some ad-
vanced ideas, one of which was the
efficacy of fresh air.
“You know how country people
close the windows of a sick room
tight. On the occasion in question the
patient was down with fever. Enter-
ing the room Dr. X— raised both win-
dows, ordering that they be left 30.
“The women who were nursing
made uo objection at the time, but
no sooner had the doctor departed
than they hastened to close the win-
dows. Some distance away Dr. X—
happened to look around and beheld
what they had done.
“He turned his horse, drove back to
the house, entered the front door,
neither knocking nor ringing, mounted
the stairs, walked into the sick room,
Ufted the thick knobbed cane which
he always carried, and deliberately
smashed one pane of glass after an-
other, until all were demolished.
‘Then, without a word, or so much as
a look to right or left, he strode from
the room and drove away.
"Tie patient: recovered.”

“None of you members had a rail

he said to a state senator just after
the adjournment of the legislature
this spring.
“No, sir. Not a single one was is

“Some of the members must have
hated to pay cash fares?”
“Well, perhaps.”
“Do you think it made any differ
ence in their feelings toward the rail:
roads? How was it in your own case,
for instance?”
“Well, there was just a little feeling
—Just a little.”
“But, of course, you didn't betray
itr”
“Oh, no. When I rose up and. stated
that the railroads of this country in-
jured 119 people and killed $7 to every
fone in any country of Europe, and
that the presidents of four roads had
‘more power in Washington than the

Gov. Pardee of California was talk-

had disappointed him.
“This man,” sald Dr. Pardee, “had
spoken so generously at first about
the payment of all claims in full that
“I was as disappointed as a man
who had just returned from a month's
vacation. This man got out of the

with expanded chest trudged tome-
ward through the hot city, pleasantly
conscious that he looked as brown

pink of condition after bis long month

“Suddenly he met a friend. ‘This

A fishing yarn from Algiers: “Some
Arabs were fishing from a boat with
ines off the coast when a dolphin, 17
feet long, 11 feet in circumference
and weighing four tons, swallowed
‘one of the baited hooks and dashed
off at a tremendous speed. The fish-
ermen paid out as much line as pos-
sible and then made it fast. This
brought the dolphin up sharply, but
the strain snapped the line. The
monster then attacked the boat and
capaized it, flinging the fishermen
into the water. Other Arabs ashore
waited till the dolphin was clear of
the men and then Killed it with

“When I started on Grape-Nuts,

feeling which was so distressing dis:

THE WHITE RIVER COUNTRY.
In the opinion of one who has tray-
eled much and observed closely, the
most truly and rightfully contented
People in the United States today are
the small landowners in what Is
known as the Upper White River Coun-
try, anywheye from Newport, Ark., to
Carthage, Mo. They are contented be-
cause thelr surroundings are ideal and,
until recently, the great, uneasy, dis-
quieting world, with its artificial needs
and inadequate compensations, has
been to them but little more tangible
than a dream. Here, still existent,
and by reason of their very rarity at
this day and time more delectable
than in the past, are the conditions
which have ever appealed with frre-
sistible force to the independent-spir-
ited Anglo-Saxon. Every man is the
Supreme ruler of his own little prin-
cipality; acknowledging no master
save the law—and possibly his fem-
inine helpmeet; cringing to no em-
ployer; asking no favors from the
world, save those that his neighbors
freely extend and expect as freely in
reunm. He lives In a latitude where
‘the extremes of heat or cold ave never
known, and at an altitude that insures
‘perfect health. ‘The richest bounty
[ot Nature has’ been. shovered upon
“him with unsparing hand, but it is a
‘question whether he more than dimly
realizes the fact. He accepts as a mat-
ter of course the fertile soll which
Produces in abundance every cnltiv-
able growth common to the north
temperate zone, the surrounding for-
ests of valuable woods and the under-
lying stratas of precious minerals, the
springs and streams of translucent
purity on every hand, the wealth of
fish and game at his very door, such as
less favored mortals annually travel
hundreds of miles to find. He is con-
tented, but small credit is his for that,
for how could he well ye otherwise
than content? It is sad that such
idealistic conditions may not con-
tinue, but it is written that the pres-
ent possessors of this favored land
must soon give place to others more
appreciative of its incomparable fea-
tures. A railroad has recently cut its
[way through the best of this region,
2nd the unaccustomed rustle of bank
notes and chink of coin will eventually
tempt the hilldweller to part with his
birthright. So it has always been in
the world’s history—the good things
that are ours without price invariably
pass from our hands before we come
to understand their yalue. ‘The White
River country will shortly be discoy-
ered anew by a class of immigrants
better capable of judging its possibil-
ities—the men who seek modest
homes where the “lay of the land”
will effectually prevent crowding by
too close neighbors, where their cat-
tle can fatten on free range, where
the wealth of forest and mine awalts
development by intelligent workers,
and where the game and fish offer en:

HE MADE THE OPPORTUNITY
How Educator Succeeded in Desire
to Address Students.
A distinguished edxeator of Boston,
who once visited a western college
during examination week, was, for
some reason or other, not asked to
address the students, as he had ex:
pected he would be. In chapel he
‘was merely requested to lead in pray:
er, which he did in this wise:
“Be pleased, Father in Heaven, to
guide the steps of the president of
this college. Thou knowest that he
was a clasmate of Thy servant, a
graduate of the class of ’s4, taking
high honors. ‘Thine eye hath looked
with favor upon the happy choice that
resulted in his appointment, with the
consent of the trustees, as the head
of this institution. Thon knowest
that the students of this college ought
to look upon him as a friend as well
as thelr president. Thou knowest
that thy servant is well pleased with
the bigh standards of scholarship
here prevailing and with the right:
eousness and loyaity of the stu:
dents.”
Finally, to the intense delight of
the students, the visitor concluded his
prayer as follows:
“And I thank Thee for this oppor-
tunity to address the students of this
college.”

ERRORS ABOUT THE WHITE
HOUSE.
To the Editor:
I noticed somewhere recently—I
‘would not say positively that it was in
your columns—an article on the White
House which contained several mis-
statements.
In the tirst place it was stated the
White House was first occupied in
1809 and that its first occupant was
President Madison, The fact is, its
first occupant was President Adams,
who took up his residence there in
1800.
‘The original mansion was begun in
1792. In 1814 it was burned by the
British and rebuilt in 1818.
Another of the errors in the article
referred to was the statement that
ready-prepared paint fs used on the
White House to make it beautifully
white.
I noticed this especially because 1
have used considerable paint myself
and wondered that “canned” paint
should be used on such an important
building when all painters know that
pure white lead and linseed ofl make
the best paint.
It so happened also that I knew
white lead and linseed oll—not ready-
mixed paint—were used on the White
House, because I had just read a book-
let published by a firm of ready-mixed
paint manufacturers who also. manu-
facture pure white lead. In that book
the manufacturers admitted that for
the White House nothing but “the
best and purest of paint could be
used,” and said that their pure white
lead had been selected.
Above all people, those who attempt
to write on historical subjects should
give us facts, even if it is only a date
or a statement about wood, or brick,
or paint, or other building material,

GIANT RADISHES OF THE EAST
There the Vegetable Grows to an
Enormous Size.
Radishes in North China and in
Japan are as important and ubiquit-
tous a part of every meal as Is bread
in America. In both countries many
milliows of bushels of this vegetable
are grown eyery year, and they are
to be had at all seasons. It is thus
easy to understand why these parts
of the world grow the strangest‘and
Diggest radishes known.
‘The giants beside the little French
Breakfast, our fayorite American va-
riety, are but babies beside the mon-
sters they grow under the warm,
moist influences of the orfental cli-
mate,
‘These radishes are grown on Amer-
fean soil from seeds imported by the
United States department of agricul-
ture from China, They take well to
the American climate, and probably
would have weighed five pounds when
full grown,
When these fellows are grown in
China they rapldly form a great bril-
Nant red globe eight to ten inches in
diameter and weighing sometimes 20
pounds. Another kind is snow white
and grows a foot long, and still an-
other is a brilliant green on the out-
side and a beautiful wine red when
the skin is cut. Some of these
strange vegetables are exceedingly
delicate in favor and texture when
grown under favorable conditions.
