THE FASHION'S DECREES THE FASHION OF THE EASTERN WORLD COMING MILLINERY The costume at the left is of gray blue cloth. The blouse is mounted with fine plats to a yoke of gulpure or embroidery, which is bordered with bands of the material united by a sort of lacing of silk galloon and tiny gold buttons over an insertion of velvet of a little darker shade. This trimming encircles the armholes and trims the bottoms of the sleeves, which are plated at the top and finished with puffs and frills of lace. The draped girdle is of satin, on velvet, fastened in front with a buckle. The plain skirt is plaited at the top and encircled at the bottom with five rows of stitching. The other costume is of sevres blue cloth, trimmed with bands of velvet of What woman is there who does not admire a beautiful complexion and desires it for herself if it is possible to be obtained? There is no doubt that many women rather injure than improve their complexions by the lotions used and the severe treatment given to the skin. It is a mistake to try all the lotions one sees advertised and to torture the face with all manner of gymnastics. It is the simple treatment that is the surest to result beneficially. Try a mixture of eau de cologne and almond oil. The right way to go to work is to begin with very much diluted eau de cologne, half water and half perfume. Soak some pieces of medicated wadding in the liquid and thoroughly and very gently cleanse the face before going to bed at night. When the face is perfectly clean fresh pieces of wadding should be soaked in a half and half mixture of almond oil and eau de cologne and the face should be very quietly massaged, rubbing always upward, and extreme care being taken to avoid COMING Many of the new millinery models are particularly dainty and attractive. Taken as a whole the hats of this winter are sufficiently restrained and free from exaggeration, and it is probable that the same will continue to be true of the millinery of the coming spring and summer. In our illustration we show the very latest and most becoming version of the mushroom shape. The closely gauged black silk has a band of velvet draped round the moderately high crown and drawn into a big chou at the side, while some full blown roses of shining gold tissue and gauze put in an effective appearance on the other side. The first hat on the left is made in mauve taffeta with velvet ribbon and defyly polled wings to match for its trimming, and brown tulle softly gath- Wild Duck with Gold in Craw. Gold in the craw of a wild duck killed on the Klondike flats is the latest sensation, says the Dawson Daily News. The duck was killed by Jack Lee while on his way from the north fork of the Klondike. Col. Williams, of the Bonanza Basin dredge bought the duck with a number of others. On opening the craw the colonel was surprised to find 12 gold colors there. Where the duck got the gold is a question. It is known that there is In Union There is Strength. a darker shade and with soutache. The blouse forms a sort of plastron trimmed on the outside with the velvet and soutache, and on the inside with blocked bands of the material ornamented with triangles of the velvet, loops of soutache and tiny gold buttons; the ends of the blocks are finished with motifs of lighter cloth. The waistcoat and turnover collar are of this lighter cloth, the collar trimmed with soutache. The chemisette and sleeve puffs are of white silk batiste and lace; the cuffs and girdle are of the cloth trimmed with the velvet and soutache, as is also the bottom of the skirt. The latter is fitted smoothly over the hips and has a seam in the middle of the front. stretching the skin, which is wonderfully elastic. The oil must be allowed to dry on the face and next morning the skin must be freely bathed in the eau de cologne sold for baths and frictions. I lay special stress on the latter sentence as there is an immense difference between ordinary eau de cologne—of the finest quality—and the liquid sold for frictions. The former would be much too strong and pungent for delicate complexions. Of course complexions differ as greatly as do characters, but for the average woman the eau de cologne and almond oil treatment will bring good results. Almost all the newest tailor made costumes show the cape bolero effect on the shoulders, but in some cases it is very subdued, just giving a tinge of the "1830" effect. Indoor blouses are now very often made with perfectly flat shoulder seams and with the trimmings arranged to simulate a fichu or short cape.

It is made of transparent drapery of black tulle, which at one side is drawn into twists and loops which are held in position by a large and effective buckle of plain jet. Then curving close against the hair are two white ostrich tips which complete a best wettinging and at the same time convenient and comfortable form of headgear. Dinner on a Chimney-Top Twenty-five members of the staff of the Royal Palace hotel at Atlantic City, N. J., dined on the top of the hotel's new 150-foot chimney, to celebrate its completion. The waiters carried up the food in hammers. gold on the Klondike river bottom, but probably not so plentiful in any one spot as to permit a duck to pan 12 colors with one crop full of sand. The duck is a widgeon. It doubtless was on its way south with other birds of passage. Somewhere in the vast north, it appears, that duck must have fed on golden sands which would be a balcyon spot for the eager prospector. Every woman feels sure she can retain a confidence until she is released. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1907. Sergeant Mingo Sanders Again—Mapps Sensational Testimony—Others Testify. Washington, D. C.—Senator Foraker has about completed the examination of former members of Companies B and D, of the Twenty-fifth infantry, and is examining former members of Company C as to their alleged participation in the riot at Brownsville, Tex. On last week Thursday Thomas J. Green, who was quartermaster sergeant of Company D, told of seeing flashes from guns, followed by reports. He said that the shooting came from the town. On cross-examination he said that he had never told anyone of seeing the flashes from the guns, and that he did not consider it the duty of an enlisted man to investigate the effects of the shooting. On the night of August 13 he did not sleep well, and was awake when the first shot was fired. His room was in the building occupied by Company D, and located on the side next to the town. He said he rose in bed and saw the firing, and that it was apparent to him that an attack was being made on the garrison. After that he dressed and assumed his duty upon the call to arms being sounded. Planned a Massacre. Startling testimony concerning alleged plans to massacre soldiers by men from the town firing over the barracks to stamped the soldiers and challenges to them to comment of the barracks, was given by former soldiers last week Friday at the investigation before the solitate committee on military affairs. The most sensational story told was that of William Mapp, who was a member of Company C, Twenty-fifth infantry. He testified that at breakfast on the morning following the shooting he had heard Wilbur Voschelle, the reservation corral boss, and a white man who had been in charge of the corral prior to the arrival of a battalion of the Twenty-fifth infantry discussing the case. According to Mapp's story Voschelle said: "Well, it is a good thing it happened as it did. I was out in town last night and the crowd came in front of me; the plan was to catch a lot of young fellows (soldiers) in Allison's saloon and massacre them." Mapp said the remark was not addressed to him and he did not question Voschelle. Before giving testimony Mapp said that on the night of the shooting he had been awakened by the firing and had gone to the window of his quarters, and from there he saw several gun flashes and the shots seemed to be directed over the barracks. A man with a deep voice he said, shouted: "Come out you black ——" (using an opprobrious epithet and making it applicable to the GAZETTE. troops.) Mapp said this challenge was repeated several times during the firing, but the call to arms was then sounded and he hurried to get dressed and fall in with his company. He said the shooting and shouting were outside the call at the end of Co. B barracks. Mapp told of the confusion in quarers and said that he got his gun from the rack that was broken open and was one of the first to fall in. Walker McCurdy, formerly quartermaster sergeant of Company B, who had charge of the issuance of ammunition, and former Sergt. Jackson, of the same company, who had charge of the quarters and the keys of the gun racks on the night of the riot, were witnesses several days previous to the above. Both men gave clear accounts of their duties on that night, and the sharpest kind of cross-examination failed to take them in any way. Both Senators Warner and Foster, who conducted the cross-examination, remarked at the conclusion that they believed the witnesses to be honest men and frank on the stand. After McCurdy told his story Senator Henney asked: "Have you told all you know regarding the affray. Are you going to conceal anything?" McCurdy told he had told all he knew and that he believed that the whole truth should be known. He said that he had served more than 16 years in Company B, in Cuba, the Philippines and the United States, and that he had frequently been under fire. "Then you are not satisfied with the character of discharge you received?" asked Mr. Henney. "No, sir, I am not," replied McCurdy. "I had done a nothing to be punished for. I have never been punished before." On further examination it developed that McCurdy, in his entire service never had been in the guardhouse or disciplined in any way. George Jackson, a sergeant of Company B had been on the stand the entire morning under examination, concerning the manner in which he had kept the gun racks, for which he had keys, on the night of the shooting. On cross-examination he admitted he had heard that government ammunition had been found to have been used in shooting, so he said the store surprised him very much, and if any was used he could not understand how it could have been secured without detection. He described the locks and the keys, each rack having two locks. The locks were all different, and there was only one key to each Jackson insisted that he counted the guns before he took charge for the day and night of August 13, and said that all of his company guns were safely deposited and locked. His story of the incidents of that night was similar to the stories told by previous witnesses. Jackson was one of the first to be charged with 92, and he told of his confinement in the guardhouse until two days later when the battalion was sent to Fort Reno. He said he did not know who was responsible for the charges filed against him and 11 others. The investigation of the first three days of this week developed nothing new and was characterized by a slight difference in the testimony of a few witnesses of both races which is hardly material because of a preponderance of evidence in favor of the soldiers' innocence of any participation in the riot. It will be treated at length in our next issue; also the important testimony that is new up to and including Wednesday next. Bought Two Houses. Cadiz, O.—The A. M.

The President Heeds the Strong Protests OF HIS FRIENDS. No Appointment of an Afro-American—Will Not Attend Alleged Fair—Hot School Fight—Brownsville. Special to The Gazette Washington, D. C. — President Roosevelt has made it known that he will not attend the Ohio Negro Educational and Agricultural Fair at Columbus next June, when he will make a trip through the Middle West, and it is understood also that he has finally abandoned the idea of appointing an Afro-American to one of the principal federal offices in Ohio. Representative Taylor, of the Columbus district, who called at the White House Saturday to present a number of protests against the president attending the alleged fair, was told that the president had decided not to accept the invitation. It had been represented to the president that there were so many gambling and other questionable features as side issues for the fair that he should not countenance it by his presence. The impression is conveyed to White House callers that Mr. Roosevelt has heard from his friends some convincing arguments why he should not make an appointment of an American to local deaf office. It is unclear whether the president was told by a prominent Cheinastin republican within the week such an appointment would not only injure Representative Longworth politically but would also prove a serious embarrassment to Secretary Taft. Of course, that settles it. The Brownville investigation. The Brownville investigation may be continued for months yet. Those who charge the battalion of the Twenty-fifth United States infantry with "shooting up" Brownville, Tex., are meeting with many disappointments. In no northern, eastern or western city would this trouble have occurred. If the civilian black cannot get on among the less cultured elements in the south, how could army officers and soldiers of that race, bearing arms, wearing a government uniform and marching under the American flag expect to get on without insult and ridicule? Did the police prejudice class? Did the men of the Twenty-fifth "shoot up" Brownville? It has not yet been shown beyond reasonable doubt. That Brownville did not "shoot up" Brownville has not yet been clearly proven. The facts that are going into the records of the United States senate will prevent detraction from the brilliant record of the very flower of the American army and will stand as a monument to those Afro-American soldiers who compose it in part, God, it seems, in His wise providence, provided a Joseph Benson Foraker to step to the front and demand that justice be done the soldier who has followed the flag in the protection of his country and to demand that justice be done him regardless of race or color. To him the Afro-American will owe a lasting and undying debt of gratitude. He stands for justice to the army and navy, regardless of the color of the men who make up their forces. He stands for justice everywhere, in all things and to all. He is broad, patriotic, and is the highest type of the statesman. He is the most brilliant man in the United States senate to day, and in its debates stands unequaled, far above all and in a class superior to the army, in the senate on the Brownville infantry will go ringing down the ages. They have set the people to begin to think about him as the right man to head the republican columns in the political contest of 1908. Rev. W. H. Coston, pastor of Allen A. M. E. church, Garfield, D. C., who is an ex-chaplin of the Twentyfifth United States infantry, is a candidate for reappointment. He has the endorsement of the Army and Navy union, it is said, and that of a number of leading public men. He once did service in the Ninth battalion, O. N. G., and is well known in Ohio. Our city governors are opposed to suffrage for this enlightened city. In the southern states it is claimed that voters are disfranchised on account of their ignorance. Whether it is that of the voters or the disfranchisers, I will not here discuss, but in the District of Columbia it is different—the voters are disfranchised on account of their intelligence. Hot School Fight. There is almost as much commotion and trouble in the public schools of this city as there is in San Francisco, only of a different character. The schools here have not settled down to a normal working condition since they were opened on account of a number of discharges, mostly of colored teachers, by the new superintendent of schools, Wm. E. Chancellor, who was brought here from Paterson, N. J. Our first victims were Prof. J. B. Clarke, a supervising principal; Mrs. Anna J. Cooper, principal of the M Street high school; John L. Love, a teacher in that school, and Miss Mary E. Nalle, teacher in another school. Francis L. Cardozo, supervising principal of the 11th division was discharged also, but he employed ex-District Attorney Henry E. Davis, the leading lawyer of the District bar, and a writ of mandamus was sued out before Associate Justice Thomas H. Anderson, who was appointed on the bench of the District supreme court from Ohio by President McKinley. The board of education was cited to appear. Cardozo won his case and the judge ordered his re-instatement, which was compiled with by the board. The new superintendent, Mr. Chancellor, soon after formulated charges of inabordination against Cardozo, charging him with having criticised Assistant Superintendent Montgomery, an Afro-American, and placed him on trial before the board of education. The outcome is awaited with interest. All of the teachers had been discharged in a summary way without a trial or hearing, as provided by the District school law enacted by congress. The decision of Judge Anderson in the Cardozo case reversed that action by the board of education. A large number of on-site citizens long previous to the dismissal of Cardozo resented the action of Superintendent Chancellor and organized a "Citizens' Committee on Public School "Afters," and elected Rev. S. L. Carrothers, D. D., president; Charles E. Lane, secretary; Rev. E. H. Hunter, D.D. treasurer, and James L. Neill, attorney—all able and fearless and strong race men. A series of meetings were held, the action of the superintendent of schools and the board of education was criticised and the matter was finally carried to congress and an investigation was secured. A number of bills are pending in congress, any one of which, if adopted, will change the system and modus operandi.

All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1902 1896 to 1898 1900 to 1902 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. An Augusta, Ga., judge fined an Afro-American "$7.50 or 15 days" on January 22 for bragging about John D. Rockefeller's attending one of our churches in that state some weeks ago in preference to attending one of the white churches. This is southern justice for the Negro. South Carolina, as usual, must lead in its contemptible treatment of our people by enacting a "Jim Crow" street car law, as well as one for the steam railroads. It seems that Missouri Afro-Americans are also to be insulted and humiliated by one—for railroads. The bill has passed that state's senate and is pending in the lower house. Our people of West Virginia are also threatened, we are sorry to say. Last Saturday's Leader had a letter from Hyannis, Neb., which was a clear effort to work up prejudice against our people in this community. In the same paper was a letter from Akron which contained the insulting reference, "negress." The same obnoxious word appeared in Monday's Leader, Page 5, column 4. What does that paper mean by continuing its insults? Hon. John P. Green said at the Antioch mass meeting that its editor, a Mr. Wright, told him that he had given orders to that paper's employees to discontinue them. The important order from the secretary of war relative to the selection of Afro-Americans for band leaders of our regiments in the regular army published in a. Washington, D. C., letter in The Gazette of February 9 was secured by Mr. Emmett J. Scott of Tuskegee, Ala., private secretary to Dr. Booker T. Washington, editor of the Tuskegee Student, and a former editor and publisher of an excellent Texas weekly race paper. Mr. Scott is entitled to credit for his good work in this matter and The Gazette cheerfully gives its portion of it to him. Keep it up, Mr. Scott. SENATOR FORAKER ATTACKED weeks ago relative to the president's alleged purpose to appoint an Afro-American to some important federal position in this state. The president never "announced that he would do so" and now announces that he does not intend to, and he never will, either. Ohio isn't New York, even if some people are foolish enough to think so. The statement that Senator Foraker "is now most active in encouraging as many Afro-Americans from Ohio as possible to apply for some office (or that he has ever done so) in the hope that the president will get discouraged by reason of the numerous applicants, etc," is too transparent a mis-statement for comment. The fact is, the entire communication is a malicious lie; that's all. INTENSELY LOYAL "Are the colored men of Ohio retrograding that only barbers and the like are put forward for office?" asks a writer in the Washington (D. C.) Record. In answer, permit us to assure Editor Lampton that Ohio has many Afro-American "barbers and the like" who are far too sensible and able to write such an article as the one which was headed by the above excerpt. The fact is those members of the race like Eubanks, Tyler and others mentioned as probable appointees to important federal offices in this state were "put forward" by white enemies of Senators Foraker and Dick, by sensational newspaper writers, and by the individuals themselves mentioned in the articles. The self and race respecting Afro Americans of Ohio, with the exception of a very, very few, are intensely loyal to Senators Foraker and Dick, and are pleased to see that the president is too wise to be led into such a childish effort to punish them as was the trap their enemies set for him and for them. Our people of this state are not given to "boasting," as the Record writer, says, but are a grateful people, always very grateful indeed to such sterling friends in need as Senator Foraker has proven himself to be, beyond all question or doubt. They are not permitting their congressmen to suggest them to the president as candidates for federal positions when it is clear to all that such action is for the purpose of inducing him to thus punish the most aggressive white friend of the race in the country today. No, Ohio Afro-Americans are not "retrograding," but steadily advancing along all proper lines and daily becoming more and more loyal to the race and its good friends. There are few Cottillrs, Tylers, Eubanks and Myers in Ohio, thank God. All the others are intensely loyal to the senator and are not abusing the president either, even though they do feel deep deep in their hearts that he has made a most unfortunate mistake, one into which he was purposely led by the war department and other prejudiced officers of the army, when he "discharged without honor" those three companies of our Twenty-fifth infantry. We thought the Record understood the condition in Ohio far better than its article indicates. Does its editor intend to convey the idea that he wishes to become the fourth senator for Ohio, by recommending to the president for appointment to a federal position in this state, three or four Afro-Americans, one of whom at least (Cottrill) is little less objectionable to the great mass of Ohio Afro-Americans than those named, especially Tyler, stenographer in the employ of the Columbus Ohio State Journal proprietor, a man by the name of Wolfe, who is possibly the bitterest enemy of Senator Foraker in all the state? Let the Record and others "get busy" recommending members of the race for appointment to like local positions in their own federal districts where the Afro-American republican contingent is sufficiently strong as a material factor to entitle it to such recognition on the strength of its potency in the party. The fact is that according to party rule and custom here in the north where white republicans are in the majority, most of the local federal positions in the south ought to be given to Afro-Americans in that section because they constitute the greater part of the party there. The only reason the same rule and custom does not prevail there is that the "powers-that-be" are of the other race, and "blood is thicker than water." This however does not prevent the Record and others in the south from making a fight for "a square deal" and keeping too busy to have time or inclination to seek to interfere in Chio matters as they are, with ill-advised suggestions and recommendations for appointments to local federal offices. Appointments abroad and those in the District of Columbia and other parts of the country, controlled directly by the government, are not regarded as local federal positions, and are considered open to capable and meritorious republicans of all sections of the country. Such has been the rule and custom ever since the close of the war of the rebellion, when republicans were in power at Washington, until the elevation of President Roosevelt, who has at times shown an independency in appointments and reappointments to positions, which is to say the least harmful to party fealty and therefore to party organization. The president doubtless feels, however, that there is a gain to the country at large because of the heightened importance of republican party. Nevertheless this should not prevent our aggressive people in the south, like the Record and its writer, insisting upon the "square deal" to which we have called attention, and along the line indicated, and for reasons stated. Edward Everett Brown, esq., of Boston, Mass., has been appointed assistant health commissioner at a salary of $2,500 a year, by the democratic mayor of that city. Mr. Brown is a leading attorney and has been a democrat in local and state politics for several years. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23, 1907. SEND ADDRESSES OF DISCUSSIONS ON ITS DISCHARGED SOLDIERS. Senator Foraker is desirous that all the "discharged without honor" soldiers who want a hearing in their own defence at the senate investigation have the opportunity. As some of those men may not know of this opportunity or may not understand that the government will pay their expenses to and from Washington and while there, to testify and that they will meet friends there who will inform them thoroughly as to their duties, it will help the cause very much; therefore, every friend of the soldiers will please send their addresses to Senator J. B. Foraker, Washington, D. C. Oil City, Pa., Items. Mr. Alfred Anderson, Geo.

Boston, Mass.—Secretary of the Navy John D. Long, in speaking of the "Brownsville" incident, said recently: "It is often asked what actuated the president to such an unlimited sweep which without a hearing of the parties accused, inflicted severe punishment not only on those suspected of guilt, though not proved guilty on trial, but also, if there were guilty ones, on innocent and guilty alike. It has occurred to me that the reason is perhaps found in the impulsive nature of the president, whose impulses, always toward the right, were directed with sufficient consideration. Everybody knows that had time been taken, and had efficient means of detection been set at work, had advantage been taken of the leaks which were sure to open in a matter of which so many are claimed to have had knowledge, the truth could have been got at and the offenders found out." "Calling" a New Pastor. Urbana, O.—Rev. Dr. J. M. Gilmore, P. E., preached two able sermons at St. Paul's church Sunday and administered the supper. The choir's singing was excellent.

We called attention last week to an excerpt from the Springfield (Mass.) Republican, which was republished in the Boston Guardian, relative to some trouble Charles W. Hines, formerly of this city, was having with a man relative to a "Mrs. Wilson," who is designated as "his/jaw or grandmother." In some way or other the item from the Massachusetts papers has been lost. Hines' trouble, which it seems was caused by the individual referred to squeezing "Mrs. Wilson's" hand or arm, took him into the courts, but he was discharged. In the east he is known as "ex-Senator Charles Hinds, of Mississippi." At one time "Mrs. Wilson" was a resident of this city. It is said that she and Hines went east from here about a year ago. Hines came here from Louisville, Ky. Won the Principal Event. New York City—J. B. Taylor, the Afro-American runner of the University of Pennsylvania, won the principal event, a special race at 600 yards, of the indoor meet held by the Pastime Athletic club at Madison Square Garden the evening of the 8th. It was a splendid race, as Taylor competed with three of the fastest men in the country, and at the finish had a lead of only six inches over Harry Hillman, jr. of the New York Athletic club. Ell B. Parsons, of Yale and the New York Athletic club, who ran in the Charles Bacon, of the Irish-American Athletic club, finished in the order named. The time was 1:14, and equaled the indoor record for the distance made by Parsons at the Fordham university games last year. Phil "Delivers the Goods." One of the best posted men on the financial condition of the state is Phil Walters, who is serving as one of the clerks of the senate finance committee. Mr. Waters has had a long experience in the intricate work of figuring on the state's resources and expenditures, having served as clerk of the finance committees of both houses for a number of sessions. He is one of the hardest working clerks among the attaches and, being always polite and affable, has made a great contribution to the position is one of trust and responsibility and that he is filling it so acceptably is a source of gratification to his host of friends—Charleston (W.

RETAINS HIS SEAT. SENATE REFUSES TO EXPEL MR, SMOOT, OF UTAH. CONTEST THAT BEGAN FOUR YEARS AGO ENDS IN VICTORY FOR MORMON SENATOR. Washington, D. C.—The four-year contest against Reed Smoot being permitted to retain his seat as a senator of the United States from Utah was ended Wednesday by 42 of his colleagues voting to sustain him, as against 28 for the resolution to unseat him. Added to this there were 18 senators paired, making the actual standing on the resolution 54 votes against it and 37 for it. Senator Smoot did not vote and Senator Wetmore was absent and not paired. The Smoot resolution was called up soon after the senate convened. Every seat in the galleries was filled and during the actual voting the floor of the senate was crowded by members of the house and employees of the senate. Seldom has there been a proceeding affecting the standing of a senator that has attracted such marked attention. In the audience were representatives of a number of prominent women's organizations which have been active in circulating and having presented petitions of remonstrance against Mr. Smoot. There have been numerous speeches made for and against Senator Smoot since the resolution to unseat him was reported from the committee on privileges and elections, just prior to the adjournment of congress last year. Yesterday Senators Dubols, Hansborough, Newlands, Bacon and Burrows, the latter chairman of the committee, spoke against Smoot, while Senators Beveridge, Dolliver and Foraker spoke in his support. Although it was a foregone conclusion that the resolution would fail and thus end the long fight against the Utah senator, the roll call contained some surprises. Of the 42 votes in favor of Mr. Smoot, three were cast by democrats. They were Messrs. Blackburn, Clark, of Montana, and Daniel. Senator Teller was paired in favor of Mr. Smoot. Of the 28 votes in favor of Mr. Smoot, three were cast by democrats. They were Messrs. Burrows, Clapp, Dupont, Hale, Hansborough, Hemeway, Kittredge, La Follette and Smith. SEVEN LIVES WERE LOST. A French Man-of-War Ran Into and Sank an American Steamer. New Orleans, La.—In hazy weather, the French cruiser Kleber last night rammed and sank the American fruit steamer Hugoma in the Mississippi river just off New Orleans. Capt. Lewis, of the Hugoma, said that seven Japanese coal passers and firemen were drowned. James O'Neal, of New York, suffered a broken leg from the impact. The Kleber, just arriving from Havana, was rounding a sharp turn and the Hugoma, drifting with the six-mile current, turned directly into the man-of-War's path. Out. Lewis says that his signal was mistaken by the ship. The latter struck the fruit ship amidships on the port side, nearly cutting the vessel in twain and within five minutes the Hugoma plunged to the bottom in more than 100 feet of water. Some of the crew scrambled upon the bows of the cruiser before the latter backed free, while others lowered boats and one or two jumped into the river. The launching of boats was extremely difficult, for when the stern stock was maneuvered far to starboard remaining there with the cruiser backed, when the fruit ship immediately listed far to port and began to go down. JEROME IS BAFFLED. His Endeavors to Disconcert Thaw's Wife in Her Testimony Fail. New York. — In continuing his cross-examination of Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw on Wednesday at the trial of her husband, District Attorney Jerome brought out the fact that in 1902 Stanford White deposited $1,350 with a New York trust company with instructions that it should be paid to Mrs. Nesbit for $25 a week. Mrs. Thaw frankly admitted receiving a number of checks from the trust company, but she would not admit that there was a provision that she should receive the money only when out of employment. The prosecutor spent nearly the entire afternoon in trying to make Mrs. Thaw admit that this was true, but as often and in as many ways as he put the question to her, she gave the one answer: "I don't remember." The judge remembered a number of other things about which Mr. Jerome questioned her was by far the most material element in the cross-examination. Congress. Washington.—On the 20th the senate by a vote of 42 to 28 decided that Reed Smoot, senator from Utah, should retain his seat. The senate passed the naval appropriation bill. The river and harbor bill was passed. The house passed the postoffice appropriation bill.

PROVE EVERY CLAIM Dr. Williams' Pink Pills a Specifie For Anemcilii Safe Family When the body becomes run down, either as a result of overwork, worry or a severe illness, an examination of the blood would show it to be weak and watery. This condition is called anaemic, which is the medical term for "bloodless." The common symptoms are paleness of the lips, gums and cheeks, shortness of breath and palpation of the heart after the slightest exertion, dull eyes and loss of appetite. Mr. Louis L. Clark, a painter, of 19 Lincoln Place, Plainfield, N. J., says: "Last May I was obliged to undergo an operation for appendicitis and while the operation in itself wascessful I did not cover my strength for over a month and was under the doctor's care. When I was able to put my legs were so weak and unsteady that I could only walk with a cane with difficulty. "I was getting no better and could not think of going back to work. I was discouraged, when a neighbor told me that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills had cured her and advised me to try them. I began taking them about the middle of June and soon felt so much better that I kept on and was cured. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured rheumatism, chlorosis, after-effects of the grip and fevers, and, as the health of the nerves depends upon the purity of the blood, they are inactive.

The Caterers' Stag Club Dinner. The Caterers' Stag club's third annual "Lincoln birthday" dinner last Sunday, although a week late, was fully up to the exceptionally high standard in every respect maintained by the preceding ones. It was given this time in the club's spacious parlor on Prospect avenue, near Ontario street, and a better place could hardly have been found. The table, a large square one, was "a thing of beauty and joy," and the service the best, in the hands of Chef Miller and Assistant Isaac Turner, waiters fully bled to death. Nett, all under the immediate supervision of the "king" of local caterers,arl. Luther Johnson, who also presided over the dinner as toastmaster, with the president of the Caterers' association, J.

George heeded the call, which was out of need. And dashed away with his utmost sad. The Stas, club's dinner was due next day. But Beldon was forty-nine miles away.

Mr. C. M. Bartholomew, of Kalkaska, Mich., was a sufferer in 1886 with what all, including physicians, called Bright's Disease of the Kidneys. Doctors said there was no help for him. As a last resort he used Dr. David Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. The symptoms disappeared and he was permanently cured by this great remedy. His case was a remarkable one and attracted great attention. Now, in 1906 (20 years after) Mr. Bartholomew writes that he confirms all that he said in favor of Favorite Remedy in 1886, and again endorses its use. Not a "patent" medicine. FREE SAMPLE BOTTLE.

In North Somerset, England, said Henry Bradley, one might be told that once upon a time the devil and a giant laid a wager, the latter staking his soul, as to which could throw a stone furthest. The giant threw his stone four miles, but the devil beat him by a couple of yards, whereupon the giant exclaimed: "Poor luck!" and so the place has been called Porlock ever since." Mr. Bradley then instanced the corruption of the word Kent (whose British name was Cantion) from a Welsh word meaning open country. It was possible that the word Cantion was derived from an old British word meaning promontory. As to London, the ancient name was Londinium. Llyn is Welsh for lake, and din for town or fort. What was more easy, asked Mr. Bradley, than to explain London as lake fortress? But it was known that in British of the second century the compound meaning lake fort would have been Lindodunon, so Llyndodin would not explain Londinium. The only philological explanation possible was that the place was called after a Briton named Londinos, meaning wild or Serce. Skidoo Per Pound Young Johnson is of an exceedingly statistical turn of mind. He got married lately, and at the railway station he and his wife weighed; then he took out a little handbook and made some calculations, muttering: "Wedding expenses, —; railway expenses, —; divide by —; I say, my dear, you have cost me exactly 23 cents a pound."

"My baby was about nine months old when she had rash on her face and feet. Her feet seemed to irritate her most, especially nights. They would cause her to be broken in her rest, and sometimes she would cry until she was tired out. I had always used Cuticura Soap myself, and had heard of so many cures by the Cuticura Remedies that I thought I would give them a trial. The improvement was noticeable in a few hours, and before I had used one box of the Cuticura Ointment her feet were well and have never troubled her since. I also used it to remove what is known as "cradle cap" from her head, and it worked like a charm, as it cleansed and healed the scalp at the same time. Now I keep Cuticura Ointment on hand in case of any little rash or insect bites, as it takes out the inflammation at once. Perhaps this may be the means of helping other suffering babies. Mrs. Hattie Currier, Thomaston, Me., June 9, 1906." Proper Method of Walking To derive any real benefit from walking, the step must be light and elastic; swing the body so easily from one leg to the other that its weight is not felt. The harmonious play of the muscles imparts a supply grace and licheness that is felt mentally as well as physically, and produces a healthy glow, showing that the sluggish blood is stirred to action in the most remote veins. This manner of walking, as may be imagined, strengthens the whole body, giving tone to the nerves and producing just the sort of healthful fatigue which encourages sound rest and beautiful slumber. Two Rules for Good Carriage If you are walking along the street and wake up to the fact that you are carrying yourself poorly take the mental attitude of standing straight, as well as the physical one. Look at the men you meet and imagine that each of them owes you a dollar. Put even a suggestion of arrogance into your position. Hold your head well back; look people squarely in the face. This will not only give the impression to others that you possess the power you want, but it will actually tend to bring that power. Keep the neck against the collar.—World's Work. A. Mortifying Answer. Richard, aged seven years, in company with his parents, was visiting a friend. At the dinner table he was asked to have some cake. He hesitated. "Say, quickly, Richard! Will you have some cake?" said his mother. Imagine her chagrin when Richard replied: "If it's the kind we have at home, I don't want any." DREADED TO EAT. A Quaker Coupie's Experience. How many persons dread to eat their meals, although actually hungry nearly all the time! Nature never intended this should be so, for we are given a thing called appetite that should guide us as to what the system needs at any time and can digest. But we get in a hurry, swallow our food very much as we shovel coal into the furnace, and our sense of appetite becomes unnatural and perverted. Then we eat the wrong kind of food or eat too much, and there you are—indigestion and its accompanying miseries. A Phila. lady said, the other day: "My husband and I have been sick and nervous for 15 or 20 years from drinking coffee—feverish, indigestion, totally unfit, a good part of the time, for work or pleasure. We actually dreaded to eat our meals. "We tried doctors and patent medicines that counted up into hundreds of dollars, with little if any benefit. "Accidently, a small package of Postum came into my hands. I made some according to directions, with surprising results. We both liked it and have not used any coffee since. "The dull feeling after meals has left us and we feel better every way. We are so well satisfied with Postum that we recommend it to our friends who have been made sick and nervous and miserable by coffee." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

The revelations regarding fraudulent paint materials which have been made by the Agricultural Experiment Station of Fargo, N. D., and published by, Prof. E. F. Ladd, state commissioner, have occasioned almost as much of a sensation as the exposure of adulteration in food products did when the latter first began to appear. It has been shown that kegs marked "Pure White Lead" often contain other substances such as chalk, barytes, silica, etc., and that oil supposed to be linseed often contains petroleum adulterants, to say nothing of water in large proportions. Sometimes, so-called "White Leads" contain not an lota of genuine White Lead. The farmer is a large user of paint. No one is more interested than he is, that the label should enable him to get what he supposes he is paying for. There should be a law in every state requiring that all paint packages be labeled exactly according to their contents. That would enable every paint-buyer to buy intelligently. The "Thunderer." Judge Rentouil's reference on the bench to the Times as the "Thunderer" reminds us how remarkably this nickname has persisted. The Morning Post is no longer "Jeanes;" the Standard has not been "Mrs. Gamp" since the decease of the Morning Herald—the "Mrs. Harris" to whom it would allude as an independent authority, and the two represented the same proprietor. But the Times is still the "Thunderer." It owes that name to Captain Edward Sterling, who is said to have begun a Times article with the words: "We thundered forth the other day an article on the subject of social and political reform"—London Chronicle. HOME-MADE CATARRH CURE. Sufferers Should Make This Up and Try It Anyway. Any one can mix right at home the best remedy of its kind known. The name "Cyclone" is given to the following prescription, it is supposed, because of its promptness in driving from the blood and system every vestige of catarral poison, relieving this foul and dread disease, no matter where located. To prepare the mixture: Get from any good pharmacy one half-ounce Fluid Extract Dandelion, one ounce Compound Kargon and three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla. Shake well and use in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime. This is a harmless, inexpensive mixture, which has a peculiar action upon the eliminative tissues of the Kidneys, assisting them to filter and strain from the blood and system all catarrhal poisons, which, if not eradicated, are absorbed by the mucous membrane, and an open sore or catarrh is the result. Prepare some and try it, as it is the prescription of an eminent catarrh specialist of national reputation.
