THE TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR. NO. 44. COSTUMES IN SHANTLUNG SILK AND CHIFFON Some one has spoken of the present year as a "season of plaids" but this is only true of tailor-mades for morning wear; one rarely, if ever, seen a plaid gown worn in the afternoon. On the other hand, stripes are in the full floor of favor, in every possible material; grey and white stripes and dull blue and white stripes are immensely fashionable and in many cases the striped materials are worked with plain-faced cloth in a particularly effective manner. Recently I saw a costume of this order carried out in dull shades of gray, with the best effects. The skirt which was round and fully gored, was made of the striped material, and there was a deep hem of plain cloth, headed by handsome braidings in a rather dark shade of gray. There was a very short coatee—which barely reached below the waist—with a sac back and double-breasted front; the coat itself was made of plain cloth, but the lower portion of the Kimoono sleeves showed stripes, and there was a blouse of chalk white gulpure inset with motifs of embroidered muslin. It was a most original-looking little gown, and was accompanied by a cloche of Tuscan straw, with dark gray velvet ribbons twisted round the crown and hanging in a bunch of ends at the right side, over the brim, and a clump of purple violets close to the front. A novel fabric which should claim considerable attention for the making of summer dresses, either in bodice and skirt style or Chinese coat and skirt fashion, is Tussose silk striped, producing admirable effects in mixtures of blue and white, and holland color and white, and mauve and white. I have seen these excellently made, and very simply trimmed with cross-way bands of the same material, with the bodice or coat showing pendant tassels to match, the under-sleeves and the vest being of tucked lawn. Also I would hold a brief for plain Tussose, or Shantung, as the authorities have now elected to call it, while they have dyed it in every conceivable color, and also accept it with pleasure when it assumes its most natural aspect, a straw tint. No costume looks better than a plain Tussose An Exquisite Design in Voile Dress An Exquisite Design in Volle Dress. gown well cut and simply made, crowned with a brown mushroom hat with a foaming veil. I quote this as an example of successful simplicity, the coat or bodice of the gown being made to suit the individual figure goes without saying, since this should be a modish mandate of perennial popularity. The serious rival to Tussore silk is volle, which, however, not lending itself to be made into coats, needs must be relegated to bodices whose waists should be determined according to fancy. Many waists of volle gowns are cut low in front and high at the back, enriched with a broad belt, and very effective this is in combination with the wide sleeves, and decked to taste either with many frills or embroidery at the hem of the slightly gathered skirt. Good combinations of color will do much to stamp individuality on frocks of this pattern, and there are some all together adorable alliances being In Union There is Strength. made between hellotrope and blue, dull pink and purple, puce and Wedgwood, while a most admirable volle dress all of one tone takes a yellowish shade, almost buff, and looks well under the influence of trimmings of thick crochet lact to match. Feather boas are making their reappearance, and are most shaded with two colors. Many reach to the bust, others to the waist, and others again to the knees, while tassels of silk or feathers terminate them, and velvet; ribbons also sometimes do this decorative duty. Hats are being pushed further and further back, until there is as much hair to be seen from the forehead as from the nape of the neck; indeed, in many cases there is more to be seen at the front than the back. Such a state of affairs is by no means conducive to a trim outline, but it attains favor, and no doubt will continue to do so during the whole of this season. To such millinery I confess I do not pay that fealty which I usually bestow upon any fashion just for fashion's sake, for in truth I do not think it is becoming to one woman out of a thousand, and I am convinced that the 999 will wear it with enthusiasm. The outline is open and low, the trimming pendant at the back, a wreath of flowers being most popular round the brim. And now a word concerning the dresses displayed in our pictures. In the larger illustration are shown two costumes, the one on the left being in the new banana colored Shantung silk, stripped faintly with red, and the other is of white chiffon pointed with trailing stripes of black ribbon, alternating with applique bands of narrow silver lace and finished off in true lover's knot bows where the whiteness of the chiffon merges into an encircling band of palest blue, patterned with shadowy pink roses, this in its turning be succeeded by a band of silver tissue veiled with a cobweby black net and headed by folds of plain pink, and blue and silver, and a trail of tiny silken blossoms wrought in blue and pink silk. All this exquisite detail is repeated on the bodice, with the addition of some cobweby bace, sundry silken and silver tassels, and a knot of black ribbon, catching in a long-stalked rose while a toque where quite a bouquet of pink roses against the hair in front, and three pale blue ostrich feathers curve over the back, is a worthy crown for an exquisite gown. The dress in our smaller illustration is one of the latest designs in volle and is both exquisite and graceful. "Toffee" as Made in England. It may be possible that there are some persons who grow old so thoroughly that they actually forget that they ever were children, but I can't help wondering if any man or woman ever lived to such an age as to become impervious to the delights of "toffee," or the butter scotch that has made Donceau a household word to every civilized nation under the sun. Of course, you have eaten it—to the joy of your soul and to the detriment of your teeth—and, if you will promise not to repeat it, I will give you the secret recipe for this candy, for it is made nowhere as in England: Take three pounds of "coffee" or "C" sugar, butter to the amount of a pound and a quarter, with half a teaspoonful of cream of tarter. First dissolve the sugar in just as much cold water as may be required for that purpose, then mix all the ingredients together, and boll them, without stirring the mixture until it will snap when dropped into cold water. At this moment remove it from the fire; add eight or ten drops of lemon extract, according to its strength, and pour the mixture into well-greased pans to be cut into squares as it cools."—From Odds and Ends of Culinary Geography, by Miles Bradford in The Bohemian for January. Prune Salad. Prunes served as a salad are a novelty that is decidedly worth trying. The prunes, after cooling, are soaked in sherry and then candied with walnuts or pecans, put on the crispest, palest lettuce leaves and dressed with a dressing having twice the amount of lemon juice as it has oil, and mustard, celery salt and pepper. It's a delicous salad. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 1. 1907. MUCH EXAGGERATED! Is the Ohio Struggle—Senator Foraker Deserves Far More From Ohio Than Taft—Local News. Sandusky, O.—Sharp issue with the recent utterances of Chairman Brown, of the republican state central committee, was taken recently by I. F. Mack, the well known publisher of this city. Mr. Mack, while disclaiming authority to speak for any person but himself, said that he was confident that the senior senator from this state would be returned to his seat without difficulty, with the warrant He asserted also that much of the criticized recently directed against Senator Foraker was unjust and unreasonable. "I have no authority to speak for Senator Foraker, or any other person," said Mr. Mack. "My opinions of the present political situation in this state are entirely my own. In the first place, I wish to say that the country at large has a greatly exaggerated idea of conditions here. There is no such turmoil as has been depicted. A few people have been attacked by brain storms, but that does not mean that the state is in a state of war. The attacks made on Senator Foraker by certain people, are in my opinion unjustified. Senator Foraker is admitted one of the ablest if not the ablest man in the United States senate to-day. He has done much work for his party, and he deserves well of it. He was defeated for governor by treachery in his own party, but he never sulked in defeat. He came out and worked as hard for the success of the republican party at Secretary Taft; as he had ever done, Secretary Taft was the only thing for the republican party of Ohio. He never has been even a political factor. As I understand it he has never claimed to be, or tried to be a political power. He has a delightful personality, but as a party leader is not to be compared for a moment with Senator Foraker." It is claimed Mr. Mack, suggested the correspondent, that Senator Foraker by his opposition to the measure, but as a party leader and which were generally the people of Ohio has lost much sympathy throughout the state. "Representative Burton, of Cleveland, took issue with the president on several matters," replied M. Rick, "notably the building of battleships. Nobody seems to find fault with him for that. Why should fault be found with the senator for doing what other men have done without comment. Did you notice that Chairman Brown said that both Senators Foraker and Dick owe it to their friends to settle the report that they are secretly working in the interest of the candidacy of Vice President Fairbanks? Senator Foraker has already denied it. Chairman Brown is in the position of a man asking another man to sweep to his imposition; he has proved an alibi. The senator has repeatedly said that he was for the president whom this state declared. This state has not declared for anybody. I don't believe a break between the senators will take place. The political future of Senator Dick is bound up in that of Senator Foraker, and I do not think that he will declare against him." At the beautiful home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Richards, her foster parents, Lillie Lilla Thompson and Samuel Burnett Nickens, of Cleveland, were married May 22 at 3:30 p.m. Rev. W. W. Grimes officiating. Miss Mary Schadd played a delightful wedding ceremony, unanimous repast was seated, during which the bride most graciously presented each guest with a piece of the beautiful bride's cake. Congratulations and wishes for many, many years of supreme happiness were extended to the groom and his charming bride. The happy couple left for Cleveland, their future home, at 6:30 p.m. The bride was richly gowned in a white sleeve three-button cutaway with gold ornaments, Mrs. Schadd displayed exquisite taste in the decorations, the flowers, lilies, beautiful with cut flowers, ferns and palms, and in the arrangement of the many beautiful presents, Mrs. Goens, of Jackson, Mich., the bride's mother; Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Nickens, of Cleveland; Miss Mary Schadd, Mrs. Nancy C. Boyd, Messrs. John Schadd, Henry Wilson and Rev. Grimes were the guests. Mrs. Goens left Thursday returned—Miss Human Howard has returned—Miss Human Howard has returned from Norwalk—Lew has returned after, of Norwalk, was here Friday. Gazette patrons appreciate the Hon.

Are Afro-Americans and They Will Not Support Him. Cincinnati, O.-W. P. Dabney said recently in the Commercial Tribune: "In your issue of today there are some inaccuracies in the statements attributed to me, due doubtless to the interviewing by phone. I stated that, in my opinion, as matters stand in Hamilton county, the individual expression of party leaders by Taft would not see vote in the coming municipal election. "Every man has a right to his own opinion. It binds no one but himself. Should, however, a convention declare for Taft prior to said election, 'that's another story.' Relative to the nomination of Secretary Taft for president, I stated that, owing to his attitude on disfranchisement and 'Brownville, very few Negroes in the United States would support him for anything. "Many recent incidents show the intensity of feeling and the determination of colored people to stick to Senator Foraker at all hazards. They realize that he is at a disadvantage in the fight; that the president of the United States is bringing to bear his immense influence, patronage and honor, and they feel that honor and gratitude demanded him go down with Foraker if necessary rather than up with Taft. Republic can party success in Hamilton county next fall is a 'consummation devoutly to be wished,' and we feel that it can only be obtained by relegating state and national issues to the proper time and authorities." Old Senator Pettus' Brain Storm. Washington, D. C.—Senator Pettus, of Alabama, a member of the senate military affairs committee, and the oldest United States senator in point of years and service, told the president what he thinks of the Brownville investigation. "I told the president," said he, "that I am tired of the whole thing and want to go home. I shall not agree to making a trip down to Texas or to adjourning and taking a vacation, not a thing to do with the case, and if anybody has a right to consider the matter it is the house, and the only way would be by impeachment. It is all damnum abque injura, and if you don't believe it, look it up in your dictionary." Attorney General Bonaparte says "damnum abque injura" is a legal phrase meaning wrong which does not constitute a legal injury and which furnishes no ground for action. The investigation is showing up the south and Roosevelt in any way which might injure it. Therefore the old rebel's insurrection be sicker than the senate committee reports this fall. He went to Roosevelt to get an appointment for a constituent. This also helps to explain his outburst. The Legacy is Valid. Little Rock, Ark.—A jury in the Pulaski circuit court May 15 sustained the will of Peter J. King, a wealthy white citizen of Little Rock. The sisters and brothers of King, who live in Pennsylvania, tried to break the will, because practically all of the property is left to his Negro children and relatives. Charles B. King, a colored son, is named as one of the executors and was left property in Little Rock and Argenta. Sam B. King, another colored son, was left property in this city, while their mother was given a home and $6,000 in money. Out of the $20,000 life insurance which he carried King left $2,000 each to seven white relatives. "Three Acres and Liberty" is no collection of fairy tales of the fortunes to be had by buying a hundred chickens or by cultivating tropical fruit. The author piles fact upon authenticated instance and successful experiment upon proved example, until there is no doubt about what can be done with land intensively treated. He shows also where the land may be found, what kind of land we must have, what it will cost and what to do with it. Painesville—J. B. Gordon was in Cleveland Friday. He and Mrs. R. L.

DOINGS OF THE RACE. W. H. Lewis, esq., assistant U. S. district attorney at Boston, Mass., has been given a promotion to $2,500, an increase of $500. Dr. S. A. Huff, a prominent Afro-American physician of Pueblo, Col., has been appointed police surgeon by the democratic administration of that city. Miss Bernice Saunders, of Denver, Col., was valedictorian of the high school, April 19. She was the only Afro-American in the class of 14, and was the youngest member. Judge Mifflin W. Gibbs, of Little Rock, Ark., has just celebrated his 84th birthday and is yet vigorous and active. He is visiting a daughter, Mrs. N. B. Marshall, of Washington, D. C. Capt. Charles Young has been ordered back to his regiment, the Ninth cavalry. His recall from Port-au-Prince, Haiti, is due to the dissatisfaction of the Haitians with the character of military information which he was gathering for this country. Corvine Patterson, of Kansas City, Kan., a veteran of the war of the rebellion, recently appointed street commissioner by Mayor D. F. Cornell, for two years, will receive a salary of $10,000 per office, one clerk, a horse and buggy, to the city. Mr. Patterson has general supervision of all departments of streets in Kansas City, Armourdale, and also Argentine when it shall become an annexed in the very near future—over a total population of 100,000 people. Judge Thomas G. Jones, of the federal district court of Alabama, holds that under certain circumstances lynching is an offense against the laws of the United States, and that it is the duty of the local and federal officers to assume jurisdiction and prosecute the lynchers. This decision was rendered recently in the case of a defendant named Powell, who, with other armed members of a mob, had forebly taken a Negro prisoner from the custody of a sheriff and other state authorities and had put him to death. Senator Joseph Benson Foraker has spoken in no uncertain tones. It is like him. The best people are with him and an overwhelming victory is his. Every loyal Negro living would rather die than vote for Roosevelt if he were to them between the two; and when that trick to "buy the niggers" materializes the bill will be called as it has never been before. Don't care what the predictions may be, West Virginia Negroes are all the time for Foraker. It is the opinion of the Pioneer Press that Senator Foraker has the best chance of being nominated for president of any living man, our neighbor to the contrary notwithstanding. — Martinsburg (W.

Not satisfied with this, he (Rocsevelt) has restored Sul- livan’s nephew to his place in the army and in so doing has shattered one of the “sacred” traditions of the military service, One of the hitherto unbroken rules of the army, navy and marine corps wes that a soldier, sail- cr oF marine who had been dishonor- ably discharged could not be re-en- Usted in the military service. ‘The general practice in the three arms is that no enlisted man can be re-en- listed untess his previous service has been “honest and faithful.” That rule was recently cited as prohibiting the reenlistment of any of the 167 ol diers of the Twenty-fitth Infantry who were “discharged without honor” on account of the Brownsville affair. But Lennon, the nephew and dishon- orably discharged soldier in question, is white. ‘The 167 members of Com: panies B, C and D, of the Twenty- fifth infantry, are black. That is the difference and all of the difference, as much as we try to believe otherwise, The fact the “Black Battalion” was not dishonorably discharged only ag- gravates the comparison—makes it worse for Theodore Roosevelt, There is even grave doubt as to the legality of the re-enllstment of a man who has deen dishonorably discharged. Even this fact had no deterrent effect upon the president who seemed eager to favor the notorious Sullivan. Dr. Booker T. Washington and the few other black ‘friends of Roosevelt should “get busy” and remind him that he will not have to go near as far to deal out justice to the 167 in- nocent members of “The Black Bat- tallon,” and thelr race, whom he has branded as midnight assassins and criminals in order to cater to and satisty the morbid hatred and prefu- ice so rampant in tho south particu- larly, and thus curry favor, political igh Sereda.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, 0., SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 1907. | =e NO ee IN OURS. : Se ‘Rae a geners the cabinet of General UET/I Last fall, a year ago, the writer was @ candidate on the republican ticket for a fourth term in the Ohio legisla ture from this county, With the entire local republican ticket, with one ex- ception, and the republican candidate for governor, Col. Myron 7. Herrick, we were all sent down to defeat as the result of a speech delivered at Akron by secretary of war, Wm. H. Taft, and the. reform ery of graft, directed by him and other persons adBinst Geo. B. Cox, of Cincinnati. In plain words the effort to elimin- ate Cox from Ohio polities resuited in the defeat for re-election of Gov. Herrick (who did much to help him- self down to defeat, we will admit) and hundreds of local republican ean- @idates throughout the state. Now comes Mr. Cox with a sugges- tion that this same man, Taft, be en- dorsed by Ohio republicans for the republican nomination for the presi- @ency next year, that Senator For- aker be endorsed for reelection to the United States senate and that Gov. Harris be renominated in the next republican state convention, His Suggestion is alright as far as it has reference to Messrs, Foraker and Harris, but no amount of suggestions from him or any one else will secure for Secretary Taft the endorsement and support of self and race respect- ing Afro-Americans, particularly of Ohio, and President Brownsville Tex- as Roosevett and Secretary Distran- chisement Brownsville Taft, as well a5 Mr. Cox, might just as well know this now as later on. It will be easier to secure the united support of or- ganized labor throughout the country for Taft than it will be to gain the favor for his: of loyal Afro-Americans. THE TAFTS. The Taft family has never indicated any good Interest in the Afro-Amer!- ean and does not now. Recently it was announced that “The Clansman,” ‘Tom Dixon's fire-brand prejudice play, was scheduled to appear at the Grand Opera House, Cincinnati, Charles P. Taft, Secretary Taft's brother, editor and publisher of the Cincinnati Times- Star, and manager of his brother's al- leged candidacy for the republican nomination for the presidency, owns the theater building. When leading Afro-Americans of that city called on him and asked him not to permit the irty show to be put on in his theater, he refused to make any effort what- ever to comply with thelr respectful, ‘reasonable and very proper request. ‘The result is “The Clansman” was pro- duced at the Cincinnati Grand Opera House and the minds of many thous- ands of persons, already too thorough- ly saturated with prejudice and hatred of the Afro-American, were poisoned even more against our people, if such a thing be possible, No wonder the ‘Afro-Americans of Ohio spoke out so ‘strongly against the alleged Taft can- didacy and even those who are trying to promote it. With Brother Charles aiding and abetting Tom Dixon's dirty work against the race with his Infer- nal play, “The Clansman,” and Seere- tary Taft out-Roosevelting Roosevelt in his effort to fasten the alleged Brownsville, Texas, riot crime upon “The Black Battalion,” it is high time for others of our people beside those who live in Ohio to get busy along the same resolution line.

Scores Both “Reesevelt ee FORAKER PRAISED! Splendid Declaration of Principles and Strong Anti-Taft Resolu- tions—The Ohio Afro- American League and Officers. | Columbus, O.—The greatest, most harmonious, (for there was perfect ‘harmony, unanimity of purpose and jaction at ail times) most enthusiastic [and succesfull race confefence ever held in Ohio, certainly within the last quarter of a century, was the meet on May 15 in Lazarus’ hall, this city. The exceptional personnel of the gathering had much, of course, to do with this, Nearly 100 promi: nent Afro-American ministers, bush hess and professional men, republi- jean leaders from the different parts of Ohio met in a state conference at the request of the editor of The Ga- ‘zette, defined their position in the pending presidential contest between “Senator Foraker and Secretary Taft | and served notice upon the secretary “and his friends that neither Taft nor “Roosevelt, nor anyone the }:icer sup- ports, will receive the support of the Afro-American voters of Ohio, who are 40,000 strong. President Roose- -Yelt’ was both condemned and de- nounced, and Senator Fors°r was commended and indorsed in the most glowing terms. The strongest lan- guage wes used in denouncing the chief executive, the delegates were Thoroughly in accord with the resolu- tious and they were adopted without 4 dissenting vote. The committee was made up as follows: Rev, J. M, Gil- mere, chairman; Hon. Harry C. Smith, Cleveland; Hon, CL. Max well, Xenia; Rev. E. L. Gillfam, Co- tumbus; Walter $. Thomas, Colum bus; Prof. W. P. Dabney, Cincinnati; Rev. W. 0. Harper, Dayton; Major Arthur J. Riggs, Springfield; Dr. W. G, Wren, Columbus; Dr. 8, 8. Jordan, Chillicothe, and Rev. Dr. C. D. White, Steubenville. Secretary of War Taft aid not escape criticism and was re ferred to as the instrament of the president. “Foraker first, last and all tne time,” and deftanoe of the man with the Dig stick, was declared to be the slogan of Afro-Americans, in the future, and the name of “Foraker” was determined upon as the pass- word to any meeting of our citizens, The meeting was called to order at 10:30am. by Dr. Wren. Rev. Dr. Talbert, of Wilberforce, was namad for chairman by the editor of The Ga- zette, and Vr, Wren and Mr. Poston Were made secretary and assistant (respectively. While the committee lon resolutions were out, addresses were made by delegates and others present. Among this number were: Rey. C. 8. Williams, of Washington C,H; Mesers. Riggs, Smith, Talbert, Attorney N. B. Marshall, of Washing” ton, D. C., and Gilchrist Stewart, of New York’ City. When the committee Tettrmed and reported the following splendid declaration of principles: antl-Taft resolutions, and provided for a permanent organization known as the Ohio Afro-American league, the wildest cheering and enthusiastic acclaim was heard for a block. Declaration of Principles, “We are republicans from principle and not because of office or emolu- ment. “As republicans, we demand and in- sist that equal and exact justice shall be granted to all integral parts of the great body politic. As loyal and falthful members of the republican party, we have made it possible for victory to be achieved when defeat seemed imminent, with- ‘out any resultant advantages to our- selves. “We are as loyal and as true today as ever, but have grown tired of be- ing considered as pawns in the great game of party polities and are deter- ‘mined to calla halt, “The presidential embroziio in Ohio affords us the opportunity of an- ‘nouncing to the world our convictions and aligning our forces for a trium- ‘phant campaign against the combined armies of hatred, prejudice end in- difference toward ‘us within the party ranks. “President Roosevelt has not been uniformly just and square in his deal- ings with the Afro-American and can- not be deemed a loyal and true American since his speech in the fouth wherein he sald that he was proud of the fact that his two favor- Ite uncles had fought under the stars and bars during the rebellion. If he was proud of the fact that they fought to keep our forbears in servile bond- age and shoot to death the glorious emblem of our country, the stars and stripes, he is not in a position to recommend to loyal Americans a can- ‘diate on the republican ticket for president to succeed himself. We are faithful to our friends and ‘defenders, We have not forgotten that grand galaxy of heroes, Weadell Phillips, Owen Lovejoy, Garret Smith, ‘William Lloyd Garsison, Charles: Sum: ‘ner, Henry Ward Beecher, Judge Al- “dion W. Tourgee, Benjamin F. Wade, Salmon P. Chase, the immortal Joan Brown, the sainted Lineoin and thon: ‘sands of others who suffered in our behalf; and we kmow that not one of ‘them, if called back to life, would “oxpress a feeling of pride that any of his relatives had fousht to dis solve the Union and against human freedom. “We are for Senator Foraker, for anything he wants, whether it be | president of the United States, re- | election to,the senate of the United States or retirement to private life may be, we believe in the inherent ‘Tight of every American citizen to “stand pat” whenever any individual, -class oF organization of men seek to ee ee mat Oe ee eee eae re ae er tifled with the republican party as firm believers in its principles, and active workers for Its success, giving to it our numerical support without which, in many counties, district and state—and even in the national eleetions—repudlican vietory would not be possible, the practice of our white republican brethren of getting themselves together, holding star- chamber sessions, Selecting candl- wates, deciding questions, ete, aad then lookiag to ue to furnish votes, shall no longer be submitted to. us, but instead thereof we demand the full reecauttton in all the counclls of the party that oyr numbers and ine telligencs represent.

W, H. Taft, in his speeches at Greensboro, N.

Wm. H. Taft, after the dismissal without honor of 167 innocent colored soldiers as a result of the alleged Brownsville riot, publicly branded them as crimt- nals, though they had not been tried, and though the entire military ma- chinery of the government had been unable to prove them guilty or just- ify their uamerited — punishment, therefore be it Resolved; That we, as law-abiding American citizens, loyal first to our famllles and race, next to our coun- try and the republican party, do here- by voice our protest against a con- sideration of the Hon. Wm. H. Taft asa republican presidential candi- date, for his speeches condoning con- stitutional violations, notwithstanding the special plank in the republican platform of, 1904, indicate a lack of republican principle, courage, intes- rity, and because his indorsement of the’ dismissal without trial of 167 brave and meritorious soldiers, many of them grown gray in the service of their country, in Indian wars and the Spanish-American war, shows weak- ness and prejudice rather than that broad spirit of impartiality, conserva- tism end justice which should char- acterize an aspirant for the greatest honor of our party and nation. Furthermore, Be it resolved, that we call upon our brethren throughout this great state, particularly, and the country to Join In our protest and warning to all republicans who sup- port the Hon. W.

HE SAYS IT WOULD GIVE ONE PO- LITICAL PARTY ENTIRELY TOO MUCH POWER. New York. — Mayor McClellan on Tuesday recorded his official Aisapproval of the public utilities bill, Which he sent back to the lesislature where, it is expected, it will be re- passed without the mayor's signature. In a memorandum accompanying. the Teasure the mayor explains that while he is in aceord with the general prinefples embodied in the bill it is as ‘a whole so destructive of the principle of home rule that but one course was ‘open to him. This was his baste objection, but the mayor adds, in effect, that such legis: ation would result Inevitabiy in the ‘appointment. of partisan commission- vers, who In times of party stress would use thelr power to coerce the transportation companies into furnish: ing funds with whieh to corrupt the electorate. Mayor McClellan says. in part: “For the first time in the history of our state there are to be created two administrative Modles vested with power heretofore exclusively exercis: ed by the legislature, of regulating ‘rates and fares of steam rallroad, street and elevated railroad, gas, elec “trle light and power companies. The combined capitalization of these com: panles is $3,823,587,916. The gross earnings from ‘operation last year | were approximately $523,000,000; the “nimber of employes upwards of 300. (000 and the number of security hold: ‘ers not less than 101,000, “The commissioners are to be ap. “pointed by the governor and as. they | may be removed by him or his succes- “sors they will become the direct Agents of cach suceceding governor. "There is no provision that the commis: sions shall be bi-partisan oF non-partt san, and all the members may be of the same political party. What may “be, will be. And if this bill becomes a “law, We shall, in the near future, see these commissions composed entirely “of political partisans with great con. “sequent injury to the state and the | properties affected. “Under given conditions when party “feeling Is Intense and the presidency. the governorship or the legislature is at stake it will be used to influence “everce and to secure the money with "which to corrupt the electorate. |_-With the general principles of this “bi Tam in accord, but 1 will never “sive my approval to a measure that Places in the hands of a single poilth | eal party auch tremendous power.” WAS BOUGHT BY BONDHOLDERS. Toledo Railway and Terminal Co.'s Property Is Sold for $2,000,000. Toledo, O—The. Toledo Railway and Terminal Co.'s property was sold Tuesday under order of federal court to Andrew J. Sullivan, chairman of the bondholders’ committee, at the upset price of $2,000,000. No other bid was made. Most of the $3,500,006 of stock is owned by J. P. Morgan and, according to Mr. Sullivan, this stock fa entirely wiped out and worthless, Mr, Sullivan said there are no agree ments with any outsiders regarding the disposal of the road, although it ts believed that the road will be sold ot leased to steam roads entering Tolede und used by them on the co-operative plan. ‘The property consists of a belt road which circles the city, with a passen ger and freight station centrally lo cated. Mr. Sullivan said if Mr, Mor gan should purchase the road from the bondholders he could undoubtedly make the stock good. Mr. Sullivan sald it would take $3,800,000 to buy the property in order to reimburse the bondholders. ‘The road was built by St, Louis and ‘Toledo capitalists and later became s part of the Great Central system ‘Then Morgan got it when he took the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton road back from the Erle system.

There was so much ceremony connected with a church cornerstone laying in New York city a few weeks ago that the moving picture machine man felt warranted to take a couple of miles of photographs. These pictures proved to be very good, and large crowds were delighted with the exact reproduction of the dedicatory exercises. "I like the moving pictures better than I did the original service," confessed a prominent member of the congregation. "You do," gasped a devout elder, "I'm surely pained to hear you say so. Why should you prefer the pictures?" "Because the picture man" answered the prominent member, pleasantly, "cut out all the sermons." Many a man has lost his mental balance by attempting to entertain two or more ideas at the same time. Nothing I Ate Agreed With Me. MRS. LENORA BODENHAMER. Mrs. Lenora Bodenhamer, R. F. D. I. Box 99, Kernersville, N. C., writes: "I suffered with stomach trouble and indigestion for some time, and nothing that I ate agreed with me. I was very nervous and experienced a continual feeling of uneasiness and fear. I took medicine from the doctor, but it did me no good. "I found in one of your Peruna books a description of my symptoms. I then wrote to Dr. Hartman for advice. He said had catarrh of the stomach. I took Pruritus and Marmalated followed his directions and can now say that I feel as well as I ever did. "I hope that all who are afflicted with the same symptoms will take Peruna, as it has certainly cured me." The above is only one of hundreds who have suffered similar letters to Dr. Hartman. Just one such case as this entitles Peruna to the candid consideration of every one similarly afflicted. If this be true of the testimony of one person what ought to be the testimony of hundreds, yes thousands, of honest, sincere people. We have in our files a great many other testimonials.

Boise, Idaho. — The Steumenberg murder trial has again been interrupted by the exhaustion of the jury panel. The last man of the second special venire was disqualified Monday afternoon and Judge Wood postponed the trial until Friday morning, when Sheriff Hodgkin is to produce another special venire of 61 men. The odd number was jocularly asked for by the defense in the hope of changing the luck that has dogged the even number used. The work of jury filling is stopped at the vacancy created by the eleventh peremptory challenge, so that there remain three more peremptory challenges. Beside that there is a chance that Torteloute, who objected to the infliction of the death penalty save in war or anarchy, will be excused when it comes time to swear the jury and A. P. Burns is suffering from lumbago. These circumstances leave the date of the completion of the jury in doubt. It may be accomplished by Saturday actual action the decks for the actual morning, and then again the jury may not be completed until some time next week. Prior to the issuance of the new venire, E. F. Richardson, for the defense, strongly intimated that the previous lists had been made up in a manner unfair to the prisoner. He said that of the 5,000 citizens available for jury duty fully 1,200 were members of the labor union and only two others were workingmen. He said there were only 50 or 60 bankers in the county, yet nine of them had been found in the lists. He said that the figures made another singular confidence and protested against the drawing of talesmen from the farmer and mercane classes rather than the capitalist citizens. Judge Wood in reply said that he had absolute confidence in Sheriff Hodgkin and said that he would make no suggestion to him as to the manner in which he made up his lists. Scruples against capital punishment and prejudice against the acceptance of circumstantial evidence, rather than opinions that gave bias, were the capitalist stock of the accused amined Monday. Man after man averred that he was against taking human life under any circumstances. IT WAS A FAKE. Story of Plot to Kill Guatemala's President Is Said to Have Been Framed Up by Himself. Mexico City.—Mexico has 8,000 men fully equipped and on a war footing now on the Guatemalan frontier. Distributed at strategic points south of this capital are 8,000 additional troops which can be transported to the border on 24 hours' notice. While there is a disposition in official circles to modify the tension existing between President Estrada Cabrera and the Mexican government, it is admitted on all sides that should Cabrera carry out his intention of executing the 19 men accused of complicity in the alleged attempt to assassinate Cabrera, Mexico would be forced to intervene. The state department received a note last night from its representative in Guatemala that the matter had been sent to the court of second instance for revision. It is believed here that Cabrera will instruct the court to acquit. A. P. Hawley, an American business man who has returned from a trip to Gauctemalan and other Central American republics, says: "Two days after the alleged attempt it was known that Central America that the whole business a sadly garbled plan framed up by Cabrera to answer the sympathy of the country and of the neighboring republics in his behalf. All he got was a thinly veneered note of regret and sympathy from the various countries which are, as a matter of courtesy, obliged to accept the statement of the government. "In Guatemala City everyone knows that the explosion of a few harmless powder caps was all a prearranged affair. Cabrera had another motive in the business. Nineteen men were arrested, charged with the crime; and, after fastening the charge on them, he is going to show his magnanimity to all the world by pardoning every one of them." Steamers Ran on a Beef Detroit, Mich.—The steamer C. F. Bielman and her consort, the barge McLachlan, bound from Duluth to Cleveland with iron ore, ran on a reef in Lake Huron a mile and a half off Port Austin early Monday in a heavy snow storm. The Port Austin Life savers succeeded in bringing ashore the crews of both vessels after making three trips to the scene of the wreck, the last trip being made in a dangerous sea. There are hopes of saving the steamer, but the barge is thought to be a total wreck. A Farmer Is Murdered Parkersburg, W. Va.—Word is received here of a murder in Ritchie county, near McFarland, in which a mother and son killed the husband and father while he lay asleep in his bed. The victim was Harvey Yoho, a farmer. Mrs. Yoho and her son gave themelses up to the authorities. Was Killed While Trying to Escape, Chicago, Ill.—Private Gilroy, a prisoner at Fort Sheridan, in attempting to escape Monday was shot and killed by a soldier who had orders to take Gilroy dead or alive. Eight Inches of Snow. Sault Ste. Marie, Mich. — All points in the upper peninsula and northern Ontario report a heavy fall of snow. Up to Monday afternoon a fall of eight inches had been recorded, with no sign of abating. Shipping is tied up, as it is impossible to see any distance. Ship and 11 Lives Lost. Monteviedo.—The Norwegian bark Nagpore, 1,177 tons, has been wrecked in a storm and is a total member of the members of her crew were drowned. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY. JUNE 1, 1907. Our Pattern Department A MODISH GOWN. 5764 5678. Pattern Nos. 5764 and 5678. The illustration shows a design that is to be commended for its graceful simplicity. It is particularly becoming to a stout or matronly figure, and is adaptable to most of the season's fabrics. Gray volle is represented, the full vest of white chiffon, gathered to a yoke of heavy all-over lace, giving a soft dainty touch to the mode. The deep cuffs are also made of the lace. A fitted lining supports the waist which is laid in tucks in the upper part of the front, thus giving a graceful amount of fullness which is laid in gathers at the waist line. The skirt is a very desirable seven-gored model and may be made up perfectly plain, or if further elaboration is desired the strapped bands may be used.

Some curious drinks that men call for in saloons, says the Philadelphia Record, were observed the other day by a man who stood at the end of the bar and took in everything that happened. The usual whiskies and beers were frequent, but he also noticed that a number of men asked for egg in milk and egg in sherry. "You sell a lot of eggs here," he observed to the bartender. "You bet we do," answered the man behind. "Hundreds of men drink egg drinks only. There are several men who come in here that order egg in beer. How they get away with that awful mess I can't understand, but they drink it down as though they liked it. One man that comes in here has them all skinned. He always takes the most outlandish mixtures of stout and milk. He's the limit for a crazy drinker, and heads my list of curious booze artists. We call his drink the 'graveyard cocktail.'" Presbyterian Stronghold. Lancaster county, Pennsylvania, has 21 Presbyterian churches, and at least three of the congregations are almost 200 years old. THE NEW INSURANCE AGENT. He Comes in With the New Law—Pau Morton on His Opportunity. The new insurance law of the State of New York has opened up a promising field for both men and women with brains and energy in the sale of life insurance. The law now provides standard forms of policies, each of which practically bears the hall mark of the State of New York, and this new order of things has established the sale of life insurance on a correct basis. The prohibition against rebating and extravagant allowances to agents has driven out of the business the old type of insurance agent, who in many cases virtually bought business, with large rebates, instead of selling it. His place is being taken by professors, lawyers, school teachers of both sexes, and others, who find that being a life insurance agent under the new system offers greater reward than their previous vocations. The law has reduced commissions but all of the commission now goes to the agent. Life insurance is something that everyone needs and under the present system its sale is being conducted with becoming dignity and propriety. Paul Morton, president of the Equitable Life Assurance Society, has taken the lead in building up an agency organization that is in keeping with the demands of public sentiment, and the standard he has set for his company. He says: "We want new agents, both men and women, but none except energetic, able and truthful people need apply. For such there is a splendid opportunity." Mr. Morton's policy of injecting new and vigorous blood into the agency force of the Society is meeting with success in all parts of the country. KNITTING MACHINE ROMANCE. Invented That a Jilted Lover Might Have His Revenge. Romance may certainly figure in many of the knitted waistcoats and gorgeous stockings worn by our undergraduates of today, but these have not so romantic an origin as the first of these articles produced in this country. For tradition has it that William Lee, who in the sixteenth century invented the knitting frame on which both stockings and waistcoats were produced mechanically, was driven to this piece of ingenuity by the cruel flouting of the lady he loved, who happened to be a stocking knitter. Enraged at his failure to make an impression on her heart, he sought to make it on her purse by killing her means of livelihood; and one is glad to read that all stocking makers combined to frustrate his cruel purpose, with the result that he fled with his invention to France, where he finally died of a broken heart, whether for love of his lady or of his spoiled invention, tradition does not say.—London Chronicle. Ghosts of Dead Lakes In the great basin between the Rockies and the Sierra Nevadas lie the ghosts of many dead lakes. Rivers still flow down to the dry edge of these one-time great reservoirs and are licked up by evaporation and the chinook winds. Of all the lakes that once lay there, only Great Salt Lake Lake Tahoe and Bear Lake are left. The Southern Pacific rolls for 165 miles across the bed of what was once Lake Lahontan, and the passengers gazing idly from the windows may see the terraces and wrinkles in the crust of the fossil lake which nature robbed and defrauded of its crystal treasures ages ago.—Exchange. One Redeeming Feature. A youthful New York artist recently invited a friend to dinner in her studio. As the bachelor maid's skill was greater in mixing colors than in catering to grosser tastes, the dinner was something to gnash one's teeth at and upon. The roast chicken was tough, the potatoes were underdone, the pineapple salad was pithy. In anguish of mind, the young hostess sank to the depths of apologizing. "The dinner was delightful, I assure you," said her guest, a charming woman who would cheerfully have perished at the stake rather than utter a tactless word: "I have rarely tasted such tender gravy." Return of the Prodigal. "I do play in tough luck sometimes," declared the impecunious girl. "Last night, you remember how it rained. I happened to be in the neighborhood of some friends of mine whom I had not seen since the last hard rain. I concluded to call. Before they asked me in they grabbed the umbrella I carried, hurried across the room with it, placed it in a closet there and locked the door on it. "Thank heaven!" they cried. "At last! Our long lost umbrella!" DR. TALKS OF FOOD Pres. of Board of Health. "What shall I eat?" is the daily inquiry the physician is met with. I do not hesitate to say that in my judgment, a large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and improperly prepared food. My personal experience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of its merits. "From overwork, I suffered several yea's with malnutrition, palpitation of the heart, and loss of sleep. Last summer I was led to experiment personally with the new food, which I used in conjunction with good rich cow's milk. In a short time after I commenced its use, the disagreeable symptoms disappeared, my heart's action became steady and normal, the functions of the stomach were properly carried out and I again slept as soundly and as well as in my youth. "I look upon Grape-Nuts as a perfect food, and no one can gainsay but that it has a most prominent place in a rational, scientific system of feeding. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manufactured and may thereby know the facts as to its true worth."

One Hundred Years Ago. Gen. Zebulon Pike was discovering the peak that bears his name. "The reason why I know I'm the first white man that ever saw it," he said. "is that it has not got any patent medicine signs on it." Regretting that he couldn't spare the time to stop and discover the gold that lay hidden all around him, he took a parting look at the snowy summit of the peak and resumed his toilome march. Seven Billion Gallons of Milk. The 7,500,000,000 gallons of commercial milk annually consumed represents an enormous white river pouring across the U. S. In every direction and yet few people realize that it is fast becoming a veritable river Styx, for it is so disease laden that millions of people are day-by-day drinking disease in various forms from this greatest of disease-spreading agents. Chiefest among these diseases is Consumption. Health office reports show that 25% of the Dairy Cows have Bovine Tuberculosis and through the milk and meat are dealing out Consumption to the people at an alarming rate. An effective remedy is recently claimed in the simple feeding Rasawa in small doses to the cattle. The remedy is cheap and a few cents worth procured at any Drug Store will render a cow entirely immune is the claim made in a free booklet issued by The Mutual Mercantile Co. Cleveland, O. Ask your Druggist for a booklet. "Whiskers." "Whiskers" was a word formerly used to designate the hair on the upper lip. Scott more than once speaks of "whiskers on the upper lip" and so does Defoe in "Robinson Crusoe." Johnson defined a "whisker" as the hair growing on the upper lip or cheek unshaven; a mustachio." It seems to have taken its name from a fancied resemblance to a small brush, to "whisk" properly meaning to sweep, and a "whisker" having been a particular kind of feather brush—also, in the slang of a former time, a switch or rod. In the seventeenth century a "whisker" signified among other shapes a brazen lie a "whopper." BABY ITCHED TERRIBLY. Face and Neck Covered with Infused $kin$ Cured by Catherine, Parapenal "My baby's face and neck were covered with itching skin similar to eczema, and she suffered terribly for over a year. I took her to a number of doctors, and also to different colleges, to no avail. Then Cuticura Remedies were recommended to me by Miss G—I did not use it at first, as I had tried so many other remedies without any favorable results. At last I tried Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Resolvent Pills, and to my surprise noticed an improvement. After using three boxes of the Cuticura Ointment, together with the Soap and Pills, I am pleased to say she is altogether a different child and the picture of health. Mrs. A. C. Brestlin, 171 N.

"Tainted Money" No New Thing "Nay, nay, nay!" said the archbishop, waving a white, jewled hand as the chief began to divulge some of his larger pians. "Tell me not of thy wicked schemes! Thy methods I must condemn utterly, but if thou bringest me the money, well, I can at least see to it that it be not used for bad purposes. And speaking of money, we need for the walls of the apse a hundred bags of gold. Dost think thou couldst manage it? "Ay," said the Gentle Robber, and that night he despoiled nine men, killing three that resisted longest, for he was a great lover of the holy church, and a devout believer, nor could she ask of him any service that he would not perform."—"The Gentle Robber," in McClure's.

WOMEN SUFFER WOMEN SUFFER Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have imputed their own responsibility. How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? The cause may be easily traced to some feminine derangement which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere, fear of being dragged sensations, fatulness, nervousness, and sleeplessness. These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded, a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable remedy for all these symptoms is A Benefactor.
