THE
TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR. NO. 14.
WARM PRAISE
For Ohio's Senior Sen- ator,
Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, from Race Publications, The Southern American,Only Excepted.
The Advocate casts its vote for Joseph Benson Foraker, of Ohio, for president of the United States.—Charleston (W. Va.) Advocate.
Judge Taft is supposed by many to be in the line of the lightening, but he will have "to get a hump on himself" to make the Negro voter think he ought to cast his vote for him against Joseph Benson Foraker.—Louisville (Ky.) Standard.
The speech of Senator J. B. Foraker delivered in Chattanooga will go down in history as a masterpiece, and too, the sentiment of a brave and courageous man. Get it and read it.—Nashville (Tenn.) A. M. E. S. S. Monitor.
Senator Foraker has taken high ground on the question of Negro rights. Let us encourage him to keep up the good work. Perhaps in the race may find a modern Charles Summer. A champion of human rights, of the old-fashioned type, is sadly needed about now—East St. Louis (Ill.) Sentinel.
This is a time for plain speaking. Let us tell the truth about the things patent to us all. The only way to do away with humbly and hypocrisy is to speak out, urging them to the grave of the world, in all their ugliness. Senator Foraker, on the Atlanta riot, and Col. Pateau, Maryland's hard-hitting congressman, puncturing the bubbles of equality, have started the ball rolling in vigorous style.—Indianapolis Freeman.
The recent outspoken straight-forward manner in which Senator J. B. Foraker has been talking and acting will endear him more than ever to the Negroes of this country. So strange never a word of protection is ever sold by our Nebraska senator. We believe it to be our imperative duty to stand in solid phalanx for men who have the courage, manhood and fairness to speak out like Foraker.—Omaha (Neb.) Enterprise.
It is refreshing to read such manly utterances as Senator Foraker's great speech. In these trying times when the American Negro is being deprived of nearly all his political and civil rights, when the Negro is without representation in the United States congress, and when the Negro lacks the support of the white press generally, when the Negro comes up the speeches of Senator Foraker country, like a stranded mariner, a downpour of rain upon parched crops, a wellspring of joy to the thirsty traveler of the desert, and a platter of food to a starving Hindoo. All hall of the famous chieftain!—Pensacola (Fi.) Sentinel.
Every race man will hall with delight the return of Senator Joseph B. Foraker to his first love. His speech in Chattanooga last week, rings true to his former history. Among other inspiring things he said. "It seems incredible that the government that is all-powerful to accomplish the long list of splendid achievements that have been wrought at home and abroad is yet, nevertheless, incapable of protecting at home, on our own soil, under our own flag, in the enjoyment of all his constitutional and political rights, our humbleest citizen. Foraker has the courage to speak what he thinks, whoever may oppose, and we shall be much misled if in his own words we awaken some of our sleepy friends with a few thoughts that will provoke a mighty rattling among the dry bones there—Charleston (W. Va.) Advocate.
Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, Ohio's great statesman, orator and gentleman, is the man of the hour. Negroes everywhere are singing his praises. It is fitting that they should pay homage to him, for his speech to the Army of the Cumberland at Chattanooga, Tenn., was a magnificent and clear enunciation of his views relative to human liberty. Brave and honest words like those uttered by Ohio's senior senator are bound to bear fruit. Unlike some people who reside north and west, Senator Foraker did not touch upon the abuse of black men hundreds of years ago, when victim exists, but he took himself to the heart of the south, Chattanooga, Tenn., and said what he had to say relative to America's injustice to her black citizens. It will also be remembered that it was Chattanooga in which Ed Johnson was lynched, notwithstanding he had been granted a stay of execution by
In Union There is Strength.
the supreme court of the United States! For this great, and many less reason reasons, no better place in the south could have been found to show the citizens of that section what dangerous and unsafe ground they are standing on than that selected by Senator Foraker.—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Perss.
It remained for J. Benson Foraker, a senator in congress for Ohio, to get on the housetops and talk straight from the shoulder about the situation of mob law and massacre in Atlanta. We are glad to see Senator Foraker get the gag out of his mouth. He used to do it all of the time. We had come to expect it of him. Now, will Senator Foraker get up on the floor of the federal senate and give us some old time talk on the damnable condition of civil and political rights in the southern states? If he should we would wish a heap to embrace him, however we might restrain ourselves from doing so. We need a senator in congress who will take up the work of equal rights for black men in the south where the republican party laid it down in 1877, and there is no man in the senate better fitted by temperament and ability than Senator Foraker to take it up. Will he?—New York Age.
We can scarce find words to express our gratification and joy at the public declarations of Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, of Ohio, as to the Atlanta massacre and the condition of our people in the south. The fine thing about his utterances is that they hit the nail on the head. The question is entirely one of the national government protecting its own citizens at home in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, and in the exercise of their constitutional and political rights. Another fine thing is the courage of Foraker. Nearly all the gop legislators are afraid to speak what they think and feel, afraid of Theodore Roosevelt, afraid of the south and of the commercial north. Foraker is not afraid of the president and not afraid of north or south. The courage of his utterance this week at the very place where the supreme court of the United States was flouted by lynchers at Chattanooga, Tenn., is simply magnificent.—Boston Guardian.
Senator J. B. Foraker's condemnation of *Atlanta*'s murderous outrage on Negroes shows him up as a man among men. His words on the affair emanate from the heart of an American citizen of honor, courage and true manhood. When a person like Foraker speaks out against the foul work of the assassin and the lyncher, it means the dawning of a brighter and better day. Ohio's big hearted senior senator does not mince words in his denunciation of *Atlanta* and the blot she has cast upon her fair name, and it is fitting that he doesn't, for the "gate city of the south" has ineffacably tarnished her reputation. Throughout his whole public life Senator Foraker has been an excellent official, and there is no honor that this country could bestow too great for him. He is a scholar, a statesman and a gentleman, and the republican party of the nation show great wisdom by balancing the power of the United States in the year 1908. He is a man who can win, and that's what we will need two years hence. Martinshurge, *W. Va.* Pioneer Press
It is out of the usual for white men, in these times, to anything in sense of the Negro's rights. Although a great number of innocent Negroes were killed and a much larger number wounded and maimed for life at Atlanta, Ga., a few days ago, hardly a prominent white man, from President Roosevelt down, has said one word about the affair in any manner. The trite saying is that "Silence gives consent." Then are we to infer from the silence of all the leading men of the nation that these most horrible, barbarous murders and butcheries at Atlanta, Ga., have their approval. But thank God there is one white man, high up in the councils of the highest, who has the courage of his convictions, and does not hesitate to let the world know what he thinks about the Atlanta disgrace. Hon. Joseph Joseph Browne, who was versed by the many Negroes of Ohio and his late utterances in connection with the awful work of the mob in Atlanta will endearh him to every Negro in the country. Every Negro in the country should read his noble words and give him all praise possible. Newport News (Va.) Star.
The Informer took a long sigh of relief when it read the despatch last week right from the enemy's own country, Chattanooga, Tenn., conveying the inspiring words of Senator Joseph Benson Foraker delivered in a speech in that city that came as a pillar of light from the blackest of midnight. Mr. Foraker has undertaken to advocate a cause that will easily make him the foremost humanitarian in America, if, indeed it does not land him in the president's chair, as it ought to. * * * There is one reform he stands for that is paramount to Afro-Americans at this time that must take precedence over all other reforms and that is the protection of American citizens, to the manner born, in their constitutional rights. A government that cannot protect its citizens cannot claim the untreated murdered purity of life, liberty and happiness and in their civil and political rights is the flattest kind of a failure. Senator Foraker rightly takes the president to task for failing to at least recommend some measure of reform along this line and he will prove another Abraham Lincoln if he can and will successfully solve this most important problem. His utterances along this line right down in the enemy's country prove him to be the hero of the hour, and has our hearty support in his attempt to right our wrongs.—Detroit Informer.
In the last issue of The Record we published an interview of Senator J. B. Foraker, of Ohio, upon the Atlanta race riot. Senator Foraker is one of the few public men who fearlessly speaks his opinion, regardless of the
results. This was shown in his position taken in the United States senate upon the rate bill, when opposed by the president and threatened to be less heartily endorsed by the republicans of his own state at their last convention. He won out as always will the right and the truth. So forceful and patriotic was his denunciation of the malcontents of that section of Georgia, that we are constrained to applaud his utterances and comment further upon his many courage. In these days of strenuous living, it is worth a man's life in the south to defend the Negro, and almost suicidal for any public character to come forward to his relief and succor. Senator Foraker is made of different "stuff." He defied President Cleveland, when as governor of Ohio he said "no rebel flags shall be returned while I am governor of Ohio." In Ohio and elsewhere throughout this country the republican party is battling for supremacy against the common enemy to the Negro. Is it possible that with such true and tried friends as Foraker in the senate and Gen. Keifer in the house, the colored men of this country will fail to do their duty?—Washington (D. C.) Record.

Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, speaking to the men composing the remnant of the Army of the Cumberland at Chattanooga, Tenn., a few days ago, said strong words for the Negro and reminded the south that the north was "eternally right and the south eternally wrong." This comes as a great boon to the Negro in such an hour as this. For it has been many years since we have had a great man to take issue with the president on the question of constitutional liberty. Senator Foraker declares that the more intelligent and progressive the Negro has become, the cured and slaughtered and reminds those high in the council's of the nation that there is a duty which we owe to the past, and to the future, if we would forever keep the government which Senator Foraker and his comrades fought to save. The fight Senator Foraker is making is not popular, and it took a man of courage to stand up in the south and speak out boldly for the constitution of his country. Constitutional liberty used to be the watchword of great men in public life, but times have changed and Foraker alone stands out as of old speaking for a man's chance for all of the citizens of his country. The Negroes throughout the country are deeply grateful to the great senator from Ohio for his utterance in their behalf. It is hoped by them that this will be the last utterance of this kind by public men, but that this action on the part of the man from the Border does in behalf of the institution and the laws. We would like to know why Foraker should not be made president in 1908. We wonder if any man who stands for the Negroes can get anything in this country to do moral cowardice and octopus chasing. Some day the old faith will prevail and the most loyal citizens of our country will come into their own—Newport News (Va.) Star.

is a full-sized American citizen, broadgained and true to the principles underlying the foundation of this government, and encouraged in the constitution of the nation. His utterances upon this occasion referred to, of the kind that arouses the loyalty of every true American citizen, with regard to an appalling condition of affairs within the United States, and under the immediate supervision of its government. Some weeks ago we referred to Gov. Foraker as the highest type of American citizen, and said that the American people not being an ungrateful people would hardly forget his services. Then as now, we felt the time could not be far distant when Gov. Foraker would be awarded the distinguished honor he has fairly and truly won. His stand for principle and the protection of life and affairs of the 17th inim. is no more partake, taken by him for the special purpose of attracting favorable comment, but it is in keeping with the strict requirements of the record he has been making these many years. At this juncture of the proceedings when thick, dark and gloomy clouds of confusion and discouragement accompanied destruction hovers over the black man in the south, the voice of a Foraker in advocacy of the protection of life and comfort beyond measure, deep in the very souls of those who had began to think that the party's great men had forgotten them. Gov. Foraker has spoken, and we hope there are others yet to follow, who will speak as fearlessly upon the side of right as Tillman has spoken upon the side of wrong—and let the world know that there is another side to the wanton disregard in taking the lives of innocent people, other than that that represented by Mr. Tillman and Mr. Vardaman. There seems to be a peculiar suspense in the minds of some who have been heretofore involved in condemning that which was wrong. Worries amuse, if suspense it is, will afford ample opportunity for gaining a clear insight to the primeval causes leading to the haughty prejudices unnecessarily engendered in the states south of Mason and Dixon's line. When this has been consummated and the real facts relative thereto have been given due weight and considered we hope to hear a clear and distinctive condemnation, from sources now silent, of what seems to us to be a flagrant violation of the laws of civilization and a grievous wrong under the constitution of this great republic.

Chicago, Ill.—Articles of agreement for a finish fight between Joe Gans and "Kid" Herman, of Chicago, were signed here Oct. 26. The terms are 133 pounds two hours before the fight, the winner to receive 65 per cent and the loser 35 per cent of the prize.
Nolan, the manager of Battling Nelson, met Gans a short time before the signing of the agreement between Gans and Herman and opened negotiations for a fight between Gans and Nelson. Gans insisted on 133 pounds at 3 o'clock, and Nolan declared that the same weights must govern as at the last fight in Goldfield. Gans turned his back on Nolan and commenced to talk with Herman's manager, who was standing close by.
Both Gans and Herman say that they favor Siler for referee.
disposition to show increased friendship for the race in the future. Then too, he has made a splendid official. Therefore we call upon our people to make a special effort in behalf of Sheriff Mulhern because the fight on him is possibly stronger than on any other candidate on the republican ticket.

A case which involves the constitutionality of the law for the separation of white and colored persons on steam and electric cars in Virginia was set for hearing on Saturday next. It is understood the complainant, Barbara E. Pope, is backed by an organization of colored people having for its object a decision of the supreme court of the United States. The woman, who claims to be a clerk in the interstate commerce commission, was asked from a southern railway train at Falls Church, several weeks ago and was fined $18,000 for hayhurst, of Falls Church, for executing the railroad (state "Jim Crow") R. Walton Moore, attorney for the Falls Church and Old Dominion Co. and James R. Caton, attorney for the Washington, Alexandria and Mount Vernon Railroad Co., have asked the court for permission to be heard.

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.
One of the local daily papers of this city said in a recent issue: "The last time Secretary Taft came to Ohio to speak he caused something of a commotion." In plain words, he helped to defeat the republican party of the state. This the great mass of Ohio republicans, especially the workers, are not likely to forget. They may in time forgive, but hardly as the result of the secretary of war's present visit to Ohio, to again participate in a campaign. Then that Greensboro, N. C., speech! Ohio Afro-Americans cannot forget it it, either.
WHIPPED HOUNDS WHINE.
The "rot" relative to Joe Gans prejudiced daily newspaper sporting and other reporters are publishing these days on their own account and as coming from Battling Nelson and his manager, Billy Nolan, and also relative to the latter's "doctored" pictures of the fight being shown in many theatres of the country, is as amusing and silly as that which followed the Roosevelt-Washington dinner, sent broadcast from the south, principally over the wires of the southern sympathizing Associated Press. Gans whipped Nelson so thoroughly before the very eyes of about 20,000 whites, thousands of whom were decided un友利ly to him, that the latter has been many weeks recovering enough to be able to talk a little and be "quoted" much. Everybody at the fight, even his seconds, saw Nelson "beaten almost to pulp" and acknowledged at the time, and still acknowledged the fact, Nelson and his windy manager excepted. Still in the face of this and much more, that time and patience will not permit us to state, the "white" wall over the "Battler's" stinging defeat ascends from the prejudiced sporting columns of daily newspapers throughout the land. Isn't it too bad (for them) that Gans was not whipped so that they could continue the later-day prejudiced foolhow of "white supremacy." What a jolt and jar Gans did give that southern yelp and how the hounds are whining like a kennel of whipped pups! The exercise of a little common sense and judgment, which they do not seem to possess, would save them from making themselves so silly and positively ridiculous in the eyes of the entire country and world.
OUR SENATOR FORAKER.
More power to Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, the only outspoken American statesman of the day! Ohio is justly proud of him! He is a worthy successor of those grand old patriots, Wendell Phillips, William Lloyd Garrison, Charles Sumner and Judge Albion W. Tourgee. He, too holds that the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is of far greater concern to the government and the country than the protection of Cubans, Filipinos or Porto Ricans and the regulation of Hawaiians, the trusts, including railroad corporations and all other large and small commercial and industrial combinations. How true it is that commercialism is sapping the very life-blood of the nation. To-day no man stands the peer of Judge Foraker in the estimation of every loyal Afro-American and thousands upon thousands of patriotic, broad-minded white American citizens. Watch him grow—to the presidency of this great country. It needs such a strong and exceptionally able mind to succeed President Roosevelt.
One or more of the United States circuit courts of the north have already questioned the constitutionality of the new railroad rate law, thus early confirming the senator's predictions on the floor of the United States senate when the bill was pending there. Every conviction the government has secured to date in its legal fights on the trusts and corporations has been won under laws enacted years ago, many of them with the assistance of Senators Foraker, Elkins and other republican colleagues, thus confirming the former's statement in the upper branch of congress that better results were obtainable under these same laws properly amended than by the enaction of a railroad rate law.
It will pay citizens, generally, who are so quick to reach conclusions on the matter of the regulation of railroad rates and kindred subjects, to suspend judgment awhile and wait. The man who has been strong enough, intellectually and physically, to literally forge his way to a leadership in the United States senate in less than ten years must have commanding ability, an exceptionally strong mind,
wonderful energy, the true grit and sterling manhood. His judgment and stand in any matter of so great public concern are entitled to exceptional consideration and respect, to say the least, and the fair-minded person of intelligence will be very slow to condemn, even if they criticise, until a reasonable time has elapsed in which to reach an intelligent conclusion. This will be when the new railroad rate law has had a fair trial, and not before.
Meantime we doff our hat to that patriotic and loyal old soldier and true American, Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, the man who dares in this day and time—the worst since the close of the war of the rebellion—to champion in the face of the Atlanta massacre, and even in the lynching own of Chattanooga, Tenn., the right of the most downtrodden class of his countrymen, to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. May God strengthen him in the work, is our earnest prayer.
"AFTER TEDDY."
An A. M. E. Conference That "Got Busy" and "Talked Right Out in Meeting."
New York City—"The president, in his attitude toward the Negro, is no longer the fearless Roosevelt of a short time ago. He can appeal for the Cubans and the Filipinos, but for the Negro he has not a word." Rev. J. C. Fernandus prefaced thus a speech arraigning President Roosevelt for his "changed attitude toward the Negro" at the general conference of the A. M. E. church in session here last week. Other divines took for their text the order of President Roosevelt compelling the
return to Texas for trial of the Afro-American soldiers of the Twenty-fifth regiment, who clashed recently with white brushes of Brownsville, Tex. "To send the Negro soldier back to Texas, as the president has ordered, he returned Dr. Fernandus, "is to send the Negro soldier to death. He will be lynched and this country will be once more disgraced. We must let President Roosevelt know that the Negro is waking up. It was the Negro soldier who saved Roosevelt at San Juan and he ought to see that the race to which those men belong is protected in its rights. The president is not taking the fearless stand that he once took for the race. He can appeal in behalf of the Jews, the Cubans and the Impoys and talk of the Panama canal and the capitalists, but nothing is heard of the fighting and murder of Negroes. The time is here when the Negro must speak out. If he does not demand his rights he should have none."
Dr. J. R. White arraigned President Roosevelt for showing partiality. He said: "It is strange that the president does not order some punishment for the white troops who during the recent rlots at Atlanta, Ga., assaulted Negroes and invaded their homes. He can discern the misconduct of the Negro soldier, but overlook that of the white." Other delegates to the conference added criticisms to the president's attitude.
SHERIFF MULHERN.
Says He is not Opposed to Intermarriage as Represented.
To the Editor of The News:
Permit me to correct an article which appeared in your paper some time ago to which my attention has been called.
The item referred to credits me with making certain statements in reference to the intermarriage of the races. I cannot at present recall the exact language that was used in the article, but I can state that some of the sentiments expressed in The News certainly misrepresented me.
What I did say is that I was opposed to such marriages, irrespective of color or creed, performed simply for the purpose of defeating the ends of justice and not for the purpose of living together as man and wife.
The article did not state my views correctly and I trust you will give this space and correct my impression.
GEORGE G. MULHERN
Howard University.
Washington, D. C.—The new president of Howard University, Rev. Dr. W. P. Thirkield, recently wrote a New York editor: "There should be built up at some center a great university that will offer the highest opportunities for intellectual and moral culture and advancement and that shall be open to people of every race and country. It appears to me that Washington is the place, and Howard university, with its great foundation and superb equipment, should be that institution. I am tremendously interested in this task and propose to build into this institution the best years of my life. There are enough people in this country who are interested in higher education of the Negro to give us here the enlarged equipment that we need to render the very best service. The year opens auspiciously; the attendance is large; the spirit is admirable and the outlook is all that I could desire."
The Worm Will Turn.
In the face of such provocation as the outrage at Atlanta, the Negro may not always remain non-resistant. We are hearing much from the south of the "uppishness" of the new generation of Negroes. The older Negroes, it is said, are docile, and the white race have no difficulty in getting along with them; but the new Negro is aggressive and resentful. God help the white community where that is a fact, and which allows its mobs to kill with impunity unresisting Negroes. For the "uppishness" of the new Negro means that human nature in the Negro is asserting itself, and that the time is approaching when the upturned faces after a "race war" will not all be black. White men cannot forever mob and slay the people of another race, however docile that race may seem to be, without in time being mobbed and slain in turn—Chicago Public.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1906.
Burlington, Vt.—Sensational charges were made Wednesday in ten indictments which were returned by the chittenden county grand jury in connection with the sale of diseased cattle in the state to the indictments, two former members of the state cattle commission participated with a full knowledge that such cattle would be used for food purposes.
Four of the indictments were against the Consolidated Rendering Co. and they contained 400 counts. Four additional indictments were against L. E. Brigham, manager of the Burlington Rendering Co. This company is controlled by the Consolidated company and the indictments against Brigham, which also contain 400 counts, are identical with those returned against the Consolidated company.
The most sensational disclosures were made in the indictments which were returned against Dr. F. A. Rich, a veterinary of this city, and Victor L. Spear, of Randolph, both of whom were members of the state cattle commission. Spear's term expired about one year ago and he was not reappointed. Rich was removed from the commission by Gov. Bell just before the latter retired from office. The indictments against the Consolidated company and Brigham charge the sale of diseased meat in the state and also the shipment of such diseased meat out of the state for the purpose of putting it on sale. Rich and Spear are charged with selling diseased beef, which they had previously condemned, to the rendering companies. All of the defendants furnished bonds for their appearance at the March term of the county court.
Before the grand jury reported at the morning session of the court Judge Rowell imposed a fine of $3,000 on the Consolidated Rendering Co. for the failure to produce before the grand jury certain papers which had been demanded.
FAMOUS JURIST DIES.
Judge Gary, Who Presided at the Trial of Chicago Archivists, Passes
Chicago, Ill. — Judge Joseph E Gary, of the superior court, died suddenly at his home in this city Wednesday. The cause of death was degeneration of the heart muscles. The judge held court as usual on Tuesday, but was not in his usual health yesterday morning and sent word that he would not hold court. He grew steadily weaker through the day and expired at about 2:30 o'clock. Judge Gary had been a member of the Cook county bench for 43 years and was the oldest judge in point of service as well as in years. He occupied a judicial position for a greater length of time than any man who ever sat upon the bench in this portion of the state. Judge Gary made a national reputation at the time of his death in 1886, over which he presided. As the presiding officer at the trial he was repeatedly threatened with death by anarchist sympathizers and showed wonderful physical as well as high moral courage during a very trying experience that continued for many months after the anarchists had been executed.
He was born in Potsdam, N. Y., in 1821, was admitted to the bar in 1844 and practiced at Springfield, Mo., Las Vegas, N. M., and San Francisco, com- munity college. He was a judge in 1863 and had been on the bench continuously since that time.
A SKIRMISH WITH REDSKINS.
Cavalrymen are Surrounded by Great Number of Warlike Utes.
Sheridan, Wyo.—A skirmish occurred on Wednesday between a band of the renegade Ute Indians and a troop of the Tenth cavalry on Bitter creek, according to word brought by a special courier. The troops had captured 50 Ute ponies, severely frightening five Indian herders. As the troopers were driving away the ponies they fully armed, surrounded the cavalrymen. The ponies, stamped the ponies with revolver shots and war whoops. The Indians recovered all the ponies but five that were killed by the troops in an effort to stop the stampede.
The Indians did not fire at the soldiers. The soldiers desisted from attacking the Utes, as the reds greatly outnumbered the troopers.

Collision was Fatal to Three
Iron Mountain, Mich. — Three men were killed and a number of other railroad construction men were seriously hurt in a collision Wednesday near here between a work train and a freight train on the St. Paul road.
A Famous Musician Dies.
San Francisco, Cal.-William Reynolds, a composer and musical director, is dead at the Lane hospital after a short illness. "The Sweetest Story Ever Told" and "Nancy Brown" are two of his most successful songs.
JAPAN LAND OF JUGGLERS.
Old Wizard Amuses' Dinner Guests by
Fooling Foreign Skeptic.
Japan is the land of jugglers and fashionable Japanese always have them at any large entertainment they give. One very clever old man goes around in a single cotton gown with two baskets full of "properties" over his shoulders, and, putting them down anywhere, performs his tricks, with the expectant audience encircling him. A hatful of coppers rewards him sufficiently and he goes on to eat fire, disgorge eggs, needles, lanterns and smoking pipes at the next place. At a recent Japanese dinner a foreign guest determined to have no optical illusions about what the jugglers did. He never allowed his glances to be distracted and was not once off his guard. Noticing this, the old juggler played to him entirely. An immense porcelain vase was brought in and set in the middle of the room and the juggler, crawling in, let himself down into it slowly. The skeptic sat for half an hour without tasing his eye from the vase, which, he was convinced, was sound and firm and stood on no trap door. After this prolonged watch the rest of the company assailed him with laughter and jeers, and pointed to his side, where the old juggler was seated fanning himself and had been seated for some minutes.
MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
Ring on the Third Finger of the Left Hand Meant Much.
She was homely, and to most persons unattractive; yet as she entered the train a sort of halo seemed to surround her as one set apart from common mortals. There was no indication of exceptional talent, ability, or endowment about her, no evidence of superiority, but a certain indefinable distinction. It was not quite an air of conquest, though suggestive of satisfactory achievement. She bore her head high and wore a Buddha-like expression of proud serenity. Only a moment was she settled in her seat when off came her gloves, and then the key to the problem was evident. The long, joyous look bestowed upon the sparkling ring on the third finger of her left hand told the story.
That left hand had a busy time. It investigated the lingerie hat poised quectishly over the face of one no longer young, it made sure that her brooch was fastened, it pulled her silken skirts closer about her, it tightened the straps to her traveling bag sitting in the aisle, and on indefinitely, occasionally pausing for a caressing glance from the tired but beaming eyes.
The gay little scintillations from the diamond flashed out the song: "Engaged—engaged—engared!"
John Stuart Mill.
James Mill, his father, was a hard man, a clever man, and a crank—a hedonist capable of making himself thoroughly disagreeable about the greatest happiness of the greatest number; a theorist who regarded his clever son as a suitable object for educational experiments.
He would not send him to school because schools were the fortresses of "prefjudice," and taught the wrong things in the wrong way. He provided him with no playmates, and allowed him no holidays, lest "the habit of work should be broken."—Francis Gribble, in Fortnightly Review.
A Good Record.
Out of all the external remedies on the market we doubt if there is one that has the record of that world-renowned porous plaster—Allcock's. It has now been in use for sixty years, and still continues to be as popular as ever in doing its great work of relieving our pains and aches. It is the remedy we all need when suffering from any ache or pain resulting from taking cold or overstrain. Allcock's Plasters are sold by Druggists all over the world.
Point Won by Flattery.
Gen. French, the English officer who represented that country at the recent French maneuvers, received the following letter after his triumphant return from the Boer war: "My Dear French: You are a great British general. I want your autograph; but, whatever you do, don't let your secretary write it." Needless to say, the boy got the autograph, and a signed photograph of his hero to boot.
NERVOUS COLLAPSE
Sinking, Spells, Headaches and Rheumatism all Yield to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
Mrs. Lizzie Williams, of No. 416 Cedar street, Quincy, IL., says: "Ever since I had nervous prostration, about thirteen years ago, I have had periodical spells of complete exhaustion. The doctor said my nerves were shattered. Any excitement or unusual activity would throw me into a state of Lifelessness. At the beginning my strength would come back in a moderate time after each attack, but the period of weakness kept lengthening until at last I would helipless as many as three hours at a stretch. I had dizzy feelings, palpitations, nausea, after eating, hot flashes, nervous headaches, rheatic pains in the back and hips. The doctor did me so little good that I gave up his treatment, and really feared that my case was incurable.
"When I began taking Dr. Williams' Pink Pills my appetite grew keen, my food no longer distressed me, my nerves were quieted to a degree that I had not experienced for years and my strength remained. The fainting spells left me entirely after I had used the third box of the pills, and my friends say that I am looking better than I have done. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are recommended for diseases that come from impoverished blood such as anemia, rheumatism, debility and disorders of the nerves such as neuralgia, nervous prestation and partial paralysis. They have cured the most stubborn indigestion. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills agree with the most delicate stomach, quiet all nervousness, stir up every organ to do its proper work and give strength that lasts.

SAVED THE CUSTOMER TROUBLE
Neat Way Walter Secured Tip from "Close" Man.
There is a waiter in a Washington cafe, who is the acme of polite attention, endeavoring in every way to save his customers trouble. The other day a man came in who was sized up by John as probably a "little close," but the service was fully up to the standard. The bill came to 80 cents, and the man handed over a dollar bill.
John then proceeded to help the man into his coat.
"Where's my change?" the customer asked.
"Change, sah? Dar ain't none—dat was mah tip, tank yo, sah!" John sail with a bow.
"But I hadn't given it to you," the man protested.
"Ob course not, sah. Ah wouldn't low yo' ter go ter all dat trouble, sah!" John sald, with another bow, and the man went out, looking a trifle dazed.

Good. Sound Sense.
Boston, Mass.—This is no time to be stressing Negro crime. We are not more criminal than the white Americans. The colored man is arrested for offenses which are ignored when white men commit them, not only in the south, but even in the north. The cry of rape is a hollow one. All the individuals charged with rape of both races would not amount to one-quarter of 1 per cent. of the population. The white people do not need to be told of the colored man's vices and crimes. He hears too much of that side now, and too little of his virtues. The white man needs to be told of his own sins, of those against the colored people. He needs to be told that his crimes preceded and exceeded those of the colored people. Such assertions are not only a way to address before the Boston Literary and Historical society on a recent Monday night by E. B. Jourdain, esq., of New Bedford.
Gans Anxious to Quit
Joe Gans, the lightweight champion, whom it is said recently renounced (?) the wetterweight championship, expects to retire from the ring after one more year, still in possession of his title. He is 32 years old, and has held the lightweight championship since 1902, when he knocked out Frank Erne in one round. He has ben fighting since 1890, starting when 16 years old. He does not appear to be more than 24 years old, having few marks of his score of hard fights. Gans is one of the few players in the title. This includes Kid Herman, Harry Lewis, Charley Neary and any others the public desires him to meet. The next few months will be a busy period for fighters, big and little. There are many good men at all the weights. No one was more pleased at the apparent return to form of Young Corbett and Terry McGovern than Gans.
Presbyterian Minister Barred.
Cincinnati, O.-Rev. John E. Harper, pastor of the Carmel Presbyterian church, the only Afro-American congregation of that denomination in Ohio, was refused a seat at the Presbyterian Brotherhood's recent banquet at the Business Men's club. One minister (white), who is at the head of one of the largest churches in the city, said: "It is hard to believe that such an unpleasant affair could occur in the city. It is hard to believe that every man's conduct and deportment is judged by his color. Mr. Harper is a brilliant man of many intellectual attainments. He is polished and a deep theologian, a member of the Cincinnati Presbytery and of the Presbyterian Brotherhood, and the action of the club, to say the least, is in my opinion, an insult to the brotherhood."

asking our votes as a republican can-

In the face of such action as we note
above, is he entitled to them? This
is a question for every Afro-Ameri-
ean voter to answer for himself. Many
weeks ago we asked the judge for an

Dr. H. R. Brownlee, superintendent
of the Pasteur hospital, said last week
that Pearl Tindull was not suffering
with hydrophobia, and Dr. C. W. Eddy,
expert veterinarian and chief of the
meat and dairy inspection work of the
board of heaith, said the cat which
bit the girl never had rabies. Both
announcements were made after care-
ful examinations. Dr. Brownlee said
the Tindull git!’s suffering was imagi-
native rather than merely physical;
that she had a case of what might be
called hysterical hydrophobia. Her
condition, he said, was due to a com-
bination of nervousness and imagina-
tion. Dr. E. A. Dale, the Tindull’s
family physician, . agreed with Dr.
Brownlee. The girl was much moro
rational last Friday than the day be-
fore. ‘She continued “er occasional
fits of barking Ike dog, but drank
even more water than on Wednesday.
Yt was the opinion of the physicians in
charge that she would recover. Dr.
Eddy's examination of the cat was
mede at the request of Secretary
Combes of the board of health. When
Combes heard of the case he ordered
Sanitary Policeman Lyons to visit the
‘Tindull home at 2201 E. 37th street
and secure the cat, if alive, or its
body ff dead. Lyons found the cat
alive and putting {t in a sack carried
it to the health offlee. Eddy made his
examination there.
“The Hesperians” is a social or-
ganization composed of Messrs. Ar-
thur Norton, “Dode” Green, Ed Turn-
er and Samuel Scott. It gave 2 dance
at Woodliff hall few weeks ago, Two
young men, members of well known
fatnilies, attended it taking company,
which proved objectionable to mem:
bers of the organization and some of
thelr guests. ‘The two couples re-
ferred to were excluded from the hall.
This incident caused considerable
local discussion and resulted in_the
publication of a letter written by Mrs.
Julla M. Jackson, wife of Rev. J. 8,
Fackson, who wrote above her signa:
ture, “Yours for Clean Society.” This
letter, under the head of “Work of
Social Uplift,” we herewith append
because of ote or two rather unique
and.out of the ordinary features: “I
wish, through your columns, to ex-
press to the society lovers and goers
of Cleveland, my hearty appreciation
of the,effort put forth recently to «ive
to one evening of social gathering,
purged from all its impurities! Like
all great movements, the first results
were small, the victims being only two
insignificant’ young boys and two
Fequally insignificant young women,

Planded by all lovers of purity. I'm
truly glad to hear that a few noble
yotng~men have decided that, when:
ever anything fs given under the aus
ples of their club, all women coming
into their presence must be of good
moral character. I feel sure that the
stand these men haye taken, whose
lives stand out so brilliantly as models
of all that is good and pure, will in
spire every woman who has one spark
‘of womanhood, to strive to reach that
pinnacle of virtue which these virtu:
ous, loving young men have set. for
them. Go on in your great work of
@leaning, I'm with you heartily.” The
most laughable phase of this affair
was the apology for the original pub-
Weation of the Jackson letter. That
was “rich.”
If Senator Benjamin Tillman lee-
tures in Cleveland in the Teachers’ in
stitute lecture course December 19 it
will be in the face of bitter opposition
from our people of this city. A com:
mittee called upon Chairman Solomon
Weimer, of the lecture course commit
tee, Tuesday afternoon and rightly de
clared the appearance of Tillman be-
fore the teachers or pupils of the
Cleveland schools would have a de
elded effect for evil. “We don’t care
whether he talks on the race question
or not,” declared the committeemen.
“He is what he stands for that we ob
Ject to. We oppose’ having a man of
his stripe make an address on any
subject before those who have charge
of the education of our young people.
Tillman and Rev. Thomas Dixon were
the primary causes of the recent race
riots in the south. Tillman has openly
apologized on the floor of the senate
for lynchings of Negroes. He wants
to come here now and make public
address with the blood of Atlantans
still fresh on his hands.” ‘The com
mittee before Prof. Welmer consisted
of Hon. John P. Green, Hon. H. T. Eu
| banks, Roy Cheeks, P. W. Lemon and
others. Prof. Weimer explained that
‘Tillman was invited. to speak here
| with the stipulation that he was not
to touch upon the race issue. This
‘yas not satisfactory to the committee,
Jand it is right. Should Tillman say or
hint anything calculated to “inspire

remuneration, says the contract the
school teachers’ committee made with

Urbana, O—The W. M. M. eonven-
tion of the Springfield district of the
A. M. E. church held its first annual
meeting here Oct. 19, 20 and 21. The
convention was successful in every
Fespect. Delegates from ‘a majority
of the local societies in the district
were present, many of them reporting
more money raised already than dur-
ing the entire past year. All reported
thelr societies prospering and many
Juvenile societies organized. The
Society was honored with the presence
of the P. B. of the district, Rev. Dr.
J. M. Gilmere, and the pastor, Rev.
John Coleman, D. D., who gave many
beneficial ideas. On Sunday, the 21st
ult, Mrs. Baltimore, district organ-
izer, preached two able sermons to
packed houses. She {s a woman of
rare ability and a true Christian char-
acter. Many beautiful and thoughtful
papers were read and discussed, the
round table talk being exceptionally
good. ‘These district meetings have
‘proved helpful and were the result of
& recommendation in an address of
Rey. Gilmere to the annual conven-
tion. This recommendation was
brought to a convention in the form
of @ resolution and endorsed. Hence
these meetings. A large number of
visitors were present from surround-
ing places and there was every indica-
tion of progress and increased Inter.
est for the future. Inv@ations to meet
at the following places in April were
received: Mechanicsburg, Hamilton
and Lebanon, Hamilton receiving the
highest number of votes. Mrs. J. M.

CUTER TE HASTE
Dispatehes from Saginaw, Mich., tell
of a most diabolical attempt of a
southern white clergyman to commit a
¢riminal assault upon one of the falr
members of his church. ‘The church
had given a picnic on the Fourth of
July last and the clergyman essayed
to assist the lady home with her lunch
basket. Arriving at her residence he
went in with the lady and objected to
her making a light and it is charged
that he did then and there attempt to
criminally assault her. The effort
to get rid of the pastor of the church
without disclosing the heinousness of
the offense with which he had been
charged seems to have created a rup-
ture among the members of the
church, but the truth of the charges
was substantiated by the fact that the
clergyman has fled from the elty to
avoid criminal prosecution. The pecu-
Har thing of this case does not ie in
the fact that a criminal assault was
committed by a white man, but in the
added fact that he {s a southern white
minister hailing from the state of Ken-
tucky, anid it serves as a direct refuta-
tion of the clalm of southern "white
men that they are the chivalrous fel
lows they claim to be in the protection
of womanly virtue, and proves clearly
that the poor ignorant Negro is not the
only fellow on earth that commits the
‘detestable crime of rape and that the
most educated and apparently refined
,of white southerners are often more
‘guilty of this miserable offense—De-
troit Informer.

Here is an example of what YOU could do.
150 Bushels of Corn from One Acre in 15 Months
Mr. John Closner has a farm near Hidalgo, Texas. He has raised three crops of corn on one piece of land in the last fifteen months. Each crop yielded not less than fifty bushels to the acre.
He does not have to wait for the ground to thaw in the Spring. Almost as soon as he harvests one crop he can plant for the next. He is not afraid that the weather will be too wet or too dry or too cold. He waters his land by irrigation and has an inexhaustible supply of water.
Wouldn't you like to have a small farm there where success does not depend on uncertain weather with irregular rainfall?
Now the land is cheap and you can get it on easy terms. Twenty acres will cost you about $500. The cost of clearing it is about $5 an acre. The cost of water for irrigation varies. You may want an artesian well of your own; you may get water from some river; or you may get it from your neighbor. But the cost is not great, and those who have tried it have netted from the first crop a sum which has paid all expenses and left a good surplus.
Let me send you our books describing the wonderful crops produced in this marvelous country. Don't delay, write me to-day.

In Gothenburg, Sweden, or at some place in its neighborhood, will soon be built a large factory for the manufacture of artificial silk for export. A company has recently been organized there with a capital not to be less than $160,800 and not to be more $482,400, with the purpose of building a factory and exploiting an invention made by Engineer R. W. Strehlert, of Djursholm, Sweden, for the manufacture of vegetable silk. Excluding experiments, this industry is new in Sweden, and it is claimed that the silk manufactured from nitro-cellulose by Mr. Strehlert's method has just as fine an appearance and is just as strong or durable as natural silk, or even stronger. It is further stated that the silk has been tested or tried in Swedish or German cloth factories and that very favorable reports have been received about it.—Consular Reports.

Experience with Texas "White Trash Starts Him to Thinking and Writing—Interesting.
At Yokum, Texas, a few days ago, leaving the depot with two grips in my hand, I passed four or five "bearers of the white man's burden" perched on a railing and decorating their environment with tobacco juice. One of them addressed me, said: "There's a nigger that'll carry your grips." A second one added "That's what he's here fore," and the third chimed in with "That's right, by God." Here was a savory bouquet of white superiority. One glance was sufficient to satisfy me that they represented all there is of justification for the impacable hatred of the Negro race. They were lazy, unclean, totally void of ambition, unremarkable product of the capitalist system and held in lowest contempt by the master class, yet esteeming themselves immeasurably above the cleanest, most intelligent and self-respecting Negro, having by reflection absorbed the "nigger" hatred of their masters.
Eugene V. Debz.
Why should the white man hate him? Because he stole him from his native land and for two centuries and a half robbed him of his labor, kept him in beastly ignorance and subjected him to the brutal domination of the lash! Because he tore the black child from the breast of its mother and ravished the man's daughter before the father's eyes? There are never men who have been mongy in their whitening skins that men who so furiously resent the suggestion of "social equality" are far less sensitive in respect to the sexual equality of the races. But of all the sensitisation agonist in capitalist society, that in respect to "social equality" takes the palm. The very instant it is mentioned the old aristocratic plantation owner's shrill cry about the "buck nigger" marrying the "fair young daughter" of his master is heard from the tomb and echoed and e-echoed across the spaces and beaches of the white trash" in proud vindication of their social superiority.
Social equality, forsooth! Is the black man pressing claim for social recognition upon his white "burden bearer?" Is there any reason why he should be? Is the white man's social recognition of his own brother such as to excite the Negro's ambition to covet the noble prize? Has the Negro any greater desire, or is there any reason why he should have for social intercourse with the white man than the white man has for social relations with the Negro? This phase of the Negro question is pure fraud, and serves to mask the real issue, which is not social equality, but economic freedom. There never was any social inferiority that was not the shriveled fruit of economic inequality. The Negro, given economic freedom, will not ask the white man any social favors; and the burning question of "social equality" will disappear like mist before the sunrise—Eugene V. Debs in the International Socialist Review.
Paving Contractors
Olean, N. Y. —The A. M. E. church choir rendered excellent music at People's church (white) last Monday and Rev. W. F. Coffey prescheduled ably. The trustees served their annual super Thursday evening —Leut Peter sonson and Miranda Holiday gave a Hallowen party Monday evening —The Young Men's Social club ball Wednesday evening was a success —The sewing circle of the A. M. E. church met at Mrs. W. W. Virginia's. Mrs. W. F. Coffey is next hostess. —Mr. Washington Johnson has returned. —Mrs. Lorenzo Prince was here Sunday. Mr. Prince, of Buffalo, formerly of this city, is ill. —Mr. and Mrs. Frank Jackson entertained the Pastor's club Thursday evening Refreshments. —Jerome H. Haitchock and John W. Logan are contractors for the paving being done on Union street. —Mr. Fred Snowden went hunting and returned with plenty of game. —Mr. Lester Clemons is convalescing and little Gladys Johnson is ill.
Our Women Not "Negresses"
The term "negress"—affected by many Caucasian papers with more or less malevolence—is especially repugnant to refined colored clothes, and we cannot but regard its use by up-to-date publications which ought to know better, as a direct insult, to the cultured and refined women of our race. If these papers and magazines expect to retain the respect and support of their thousands of Negro readers, the gross anachronism should be abandoned at once. "Negress," in the distressing period of the auction block, was the term generally used to describe a female slave. The corresponding term used for a male slave was "buck." Why the rising generation objects to the perpetuation of such vulgar designations as the above, is obvious to all who reason as they run—Indianapolis Freeman.
Walcott Toling Fighters
Chelsea, Mass.-Honey Mellody, of Charlestown, won from Won Walcott, champion weiterweight, in 15 rounds before the Lincoln Athletic club here last week Tuesday night. Walcott knocked Mellody down in the first round, but the white boxer matched Woutkamp every round. Joe "played" "Possum."

Stand by the Race.
Seattle, Wash.-Clifford C. Hancock withdrew a $2,000 furniture order from a local firm, (white) Frederic & Nelson, because an employee refused to serve a Mrs. Graves in its dining room. Mr. Hancock and the lady are Afro-Americans. The former is proprietor of the "Waldorf" dining room. God hates a coward, and he must make our mark among our fellow men so that we can stand up for our rights. The few men of A. T. Stewart, the merchant prince, because he insulted their race.

A Peculiar Accident.
Pittsburgh, Pa.-Elmer Hackett, 24 years old, is in a hospital seriously burned as the result of a peculiar accident last night. A large can of gasoline ignited in an automobile garage and an employee threw it into the street, striking Hackett, who was passing at the time. The blazing fluid covered him and, screaming for help, he ran down the street. An automobile robe about Hackett and, putting a robe about Hackett to the flames, the chafer flew speeded the machine to the hospital. Policemen chased the chafer and arrested him in front of the hospital for exceeding the speed limit. Later he was released.
A Boom in Mining Stocks.
San Francisco, Cal. — Before a room crowded with spectators and amid a scene of great excitement the Comstock mining stocks boomed Tuesday as they have not done for many a month. When the southern Nevadas were called brokers fought and scrambled to fill orders on the advancing market. Tonopahs came first. Tonopah Extension advanced to $7 and Montana to $4.07%. Then came the greatest drop in the trading in the Goldfields. The leaders sold at big advances, some of which were not held.
A. Contrast
The papers state that President Roosevelt has given $100 to prosecute the proprietor of a dance hall who refused to admit a white sailor in uniform.
The amount he gave to prosecute the white ruffians who refused to allow the Negro troops who saved him in Cuba, to walk on the sidewalks in Brownville, Texas, has not yet been announced, nor has the text of the proclamation denouncing them been published.—Alexandria (Va.) Home News.
A Beguest for Missionary Work
Cincinnati, O. — Three hundred shares of stock of the First national bank of this city (present market value $76,500) was left to Rev. Frank H. Nelson, rector of Christ Episcopal church, as trustee by the will of Mrs. Charles Cassily, prominent as a philanthropist in Cincinnati and New York. The bequest is for home and foreign missions.
A Strike of 300 Men.
Huron, O.-About 300 men working on the Wheeling & Lake Erie road improvements here went on strike Tuesday and the work is completely tied up. E. R. Gilmore, the company, and the supplier, the company Monday. Gilmore was very popular with the men, and Tuesday they refused to go to work.
Will Compare Vote with Last Year.
Columbus, O.—The election returns this year will be compared with the Pattison vote of a year ago, when Pattison's plurality for governor was 43,000. There are 4,250 election precincts in the state and to overcome the republicans must make an average gain of 11 votes to a precinct.
"Even So."
The colored man had as well learn to-day as to learn it 50 years from today, that 'conventions, resolutions and prayers' are all well enough, but that he must DO something beades and prayers, build, combine and support his own enterprises—Richmond (Va) St. Luke's Herald.

WHAT JOY THEY BRING TO EVERY HOME
as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use.
Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication.
Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required.
SAVED BABY LYON'S LIFE.
Awful Sight from That Dreadful Complaint, infantile Eczema—Mother Praises Cuticura Remedies.
"Our baby had that dreadful complaint, infantile Eczema, which afflicted him for several months, commencing at the top of his head, and at last covering his whole body. His sufferings were untold and constant misery, in fact, there was nothing we would not have done to have given him relief. We finally procured a full set of the Cuticura Remedies, and in about three or four days he began to show a brighter spirit and really laughed, for the first time in a year. In about ninety days he was fully recovered. Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has always been our greatest pleasure, and there is nothing too good that we could say in their favor, for they certainly saved our baby's life, for he was the most awful sight that I ever beheld, prior to the treatment of the Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. Maebelle Lyon, 1826 Appleton Ave., Parsons, Kan., July 18, 1905."
A Letter from School
They were talking about boarding schools, and a lawyer drew a letter from his pocket.
"My son," he said, "started in at a new boarding school last week, and here is a letter that I got from him this morning."
The letter was passed about. It said:
"Dear pa I think I have got apendaseets. The boys at this school are not very nice, but I will try not to larn eny bad habbits. I do not think the food is good, but I would not mind if I was a little stronger.
"The piece of meat enclosed is what we had on Sunday, but on other days it is tuffer. Do not mind my being so uncomfortable, as I do not think I will last long. Please send me a dollar as I owe a boy a dollar.
