THE TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR. NO. 51. SUMMER MODE THE FASHION OF THE EASTERN WESTERN WESTERN Fashion is looking up, and the influence of clothes is being realized. There is no doubt that clothes to a very great extent make the woman, and that man is more easily allured by the grace of the gown than the grace of the mind, although, of course, he would have you think otherwise, and will hold forth with considerable emphasis on the text that no man ever knows what costume a woman has on, nor is he at all concerned with the shape of her hat, or the way she does her hair! Any woman realizes more accurately the real masculine attitude towards the feminine fashions. And what are the feminine fashions just at the moment? Well, they are making conclusively for the diaphanous fabric, the feathered hat and the lace insertion. The new model Irish lace dresses are quite delightful, specially those which have loose lace coats, and skirts which fit tightly round the hips and flow outward at the feet. I prefer the loose coat and the thin blouse which is entirely made of lace, and more especially would I recommend this to the stout woman, for there is much recollection in the full loose coat, which at once conceals the outlines and disguises its attempt. Lace is not as transparent in its method as in its outward seeming. Still, under any circumstances the Irish lace dress, whether from Paris or from the Emerald isle, is not within the reach of most of us. We content ourselves, and well content ourselves, too, with dresses of fine lace, dresses of lawn, dresses of muslin. Never were the muslins prettier, especially as some one remarked with more wit than wisdom, "when they are cotton volles." Cotton volles grow in number, and improve in quality every day, while they remain pleasantly within the grasp of the most limited income, and disport themselves gayly with stripes and checks and spots and flowered patterns, the stripes being most prominently in favor in every color and size. I advise those who choose a black and white stripe to be careful to select the narrowest, for in wide stripes lurks ever the suggestion of Brother Bones in his Sunday best. The narrow black stripe is altogether delightful when supplied with the appropriate vest of net or lace, and perhaps a touch of pale blue ribbon to form a tie or the edge of the collar band. Mussil and net ribbon-trimmed hats are asserting their right to consideration, and the manufacturers have devised many novelties in hats of linen, but these being destined to take the place of the panama, and assuming equally nondescript shapes, shapes which lend themselves to individual influence, and will appear smiling and even becoming when the crown is bunched into a hollow, and the brim irregularly convulsed. The linen hats with stitched brims and stitched crowns are trimmed with scars of crepe de chine or soft silk, the ends being embroidered and fringed. The newest belt is made of leather of one color, and striped with leather of another color, and this looks its best with a white foundation and striped in black. But elastic belts continue popular, no doubt, by reason of their adaptability, and belts of ribbon either buckled or held with embroidered buttons or hooks, are particularly becoming in the small waist. Much favor is still being shown to the ribbon belt, which is made in one with over-sleeves and In Union There is Strength. braces of ribbon, these braces being either frilled or plain, made of the ribbon treated simply, or made of piece silk adorned with a trellis of silk the best effect being gained by some dark ribbon which matches the skirt, while the blouse with which these are worn is of fine white soft lawn. China silk is also much in request, mostly bearing a design on either border, while the groundwork is invariably white, and silver embroideries glisten trumpantly from foundation of straw-colored net. Straw and buff are tones which hold their own, and may be found in net, Original Design for an Afternoon Dress. Black taffeta, trimmed with black silk insertion. The skirt is tucked to fit round the hips. Black hat with long white feather fastened with a buckle. chiffon and glace, and attractive cloth frocks also strike these notes, and they look well if allied skillfully to black and white stripes. Light colored cloth and heavy guiure lace, and black and white stripes are a favorable union of fashion, and those whom fashion has joined let na woman set asunder until fashion has us convinced they do not agree. Profitable Tobacco Growing. The American tobacco crop has within the last few years assumed greatly increased importance. Quality as well as the quantity has improved. The farmers in some parts of the south, where this crop has been taken up, are making money beyond their fondest dreams in the cultivation of tobacco, and it is said that the unusual sight has been witnessed there of the agents of the large manufacturing companies practically on their knees begging for a few bales of tobacco. Statistics of Great Industry. At the census of 1905 the number of sawnmills reported was 18,277, and their combined capital was $91,621,184. They furnished employment on the average to 223,674 wage earners, paid $100,108,91 in wages, consumed materials costing $263,865,101, and manufactured products to the value of $491,524,662. In this industry Wisconsin ranked first in value of products, Washington second, Michigan third, Louisiana fourth and Pennsylvania fifth. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 20, 1907. DEVELOPMENTS! Gen. A. S. Burt Praises "The Black Battalion" and Maj. Penrose, Capts. Macklin and Lyon and Others, Stand Firm for Them. GAZETTE. grand jury to return indictments. The senate committee thereupon adjourned until Nov. 18. From present indications, it stands 8 to 4 against the soldiers with one member doubtful. There are several southern democratic members and also nearly an equal number of northern democrats on the committee. In spite of this fact there are several who so strongly in the favor of "The Black Battalion" is the great preponderance of the testimony given before the committee. All of it has been printed by the government and it will be placed in the hands of every member of the United State senate, which has a good working republican majority. Our people of every state should begin now to see that their republican United States senators are right and will vote right when the matter comes up in the senate this fall. Our local Press Bureau pertinently remarks: It is not well for our people to take too seriously the "feeler" sent out last week about the president making certain recommendations in behalf of our soldiers. It is an effort to ascertain our attitude in the light of the promise. Keep quiet, and you will be heard; but speak at the ballot box where you will be felt, and felt in no uncertain way. Our people owe a solemn duty to Senator Foraker for the battle he has fought for the triumph of constitutional liberty. No man, not even Sumner, ever risked so much; no man ever fought more valiantly, no man ever deserved so well of the people whose cause he has championed. We must defend him, must stand up for him no matter what the cost or how great the sacrifice is too great to be made for him. We have entered the fight for Foraker, and we are in it to stay. We demand the re-reinstitution of the discharged and disgraced battalion of the Twenty-fifth infantry and will not be satisfied with promises. We must have the re-reinstitution of the men and all back pay must be given them with all their rights prior to their lynching at Brownsville, Texas. We demand this as a matter of right, and until this is done there will be war to the knife. In the battle there is to be no yelling from the house top, but we are going to strike where it will be felt and re-institute. Our cry will be the offenses of President Obama, the loosely Brownsville and the decision to interstate commerce the commission. Both proceed from the same source and both are prompted by the same spirit—a desire to win the affection of the south and pay the southern senators for their votes in passing the rate bill. Down with such un-Americanism! Hereafter southern railroads (in states having "Jim Crow" car laws) that seat white and colored intrastate passengers in separate cars must provide equally good accommodations for the same money to both. That is the ruling of the Interstate commerce commission. Georgia Edwards, colored, bought a first-class ticket over the Nashville line and was put in a car for Negroes. The cars for whites had wash-bowls and towels and smoking compartments, smoking not being allowed of these cars. The car for Negroes was without these inexpensive comforts. Commissioner Lane in his opinion quotes the supreme court and the former decisions of the commission to the effect that the separation of intra-state passengers is not unlawful when carried out "without disadvantage to either race and with increased comfort to both." "Cars and accommodations equal in all respects" and "equal protection to passengers" must be provided. This rule is broken when a respectable colored woman paying full fare is thrust into a sexton blue with tobacco smoke and possibly made additionally offensive by unrestrained rough language and conduct. She is entitled to "protection" as well as to equal accommodations. Intra-state passengers are those riding from one point in a state to another in the same state. RACE TREASON NO.1. The first open sign of treason to the cause of the race has come to light. The Taft bureau in Ohio has sent to every colored paper, and has had printed in every white Taft Roosevelt paper in Ohio an editorial from the New York Age, in which the precious plea is made that Roosevelt's plant tool, Secretary Taft, proves that he is a friend of our race by ACCEPTING the place as trustee of the $1,000,000 Jeanes fund for southern Negro education offered him by Booker T. Washington. This editorial from a traitorous colored newspaper which is really owned by the principal of Tuskegee institute, and in which Tim Fortune can only write what the Tuskegee man will permit, if in fact he writes anything at all, is too flagrant to fool anyone and will not make a single colored vote for Roosevelt. It's dishonesty and cowardice in not daring to reproduce that part of the editorial which was a quotation from a paper that called Booker Washington's selection of Taft an insult to our race, would in itself condemn it as base. But its use by the Taft bureau for colored papers only proves what we said, that Taft was got purposely by Booker Washington as a political back to make Taft appear a friend of the president. The whole contemptible business will only serve to prove to Booker Washington's friends that he is now the most dangerous foe to his race and vindicate our opposition to his being accepted as a political leader.

SEER The Gazette enters its twenty-fifth year next month and has beén pub- Ushed every week on time ever since its birth, August 25, 1883. How is that for a record? Gov, Hoke Smith, of Georgia, cer tainly has “a supreme nerve” in open- ly advocating distranchisement and “Jim Crow” legislation of varfous Kinds which is direct conflict with sections of the fundamental law of the land—the United States constitu. tion, . We call our readers’ attention par Yienlariy to the letter published else. where in this paper, signed by Capt Charles Young. Every loyal member of the race, able to do so, ought to contribute something to the Paul Lawrence Dunbar monument fund. Any amount, be it ‘ever so small, wil ‘be thankfully received by Dr. D. W. Clark, 222 W. 4th street, Cincinnati, Ohio: According to daily newspaper re- ports, Dr. Booker T. Washington says ‘President Roosevelt told:him that he “iikes his job.” We judged so from the ‘enthusiasm with which he con- tinually “starts things.” However, it will be weli for him to keep up his “gait” and get all of the “like” out of “his Job” he can this his second and last term. There will be no more Yor him and none for either of his ‘quondam candidates for the position Root and Taft —_—_ No politics was injected into the re- cent commencement exercises of Wil berforce university. Only vital_mat- ters of race interest were discussed by Senator Foraker. ‘President Jones, his board of trustees and everybody else except the Taft boomers and those subsidized by them, are still thoroughly pleased and perfectly sat- isfled, after having “calmly welghed the whole matter.” The subsidized New York Age, particularly, will plenne edke the Sink: ‘The National Afro-American coun- cil’s address to the country, and its President, Bishop Alexander Walters’ annual address to the organization at its recent yearly meeting in Baitl- more, Md., were just what the race needed at this time—plain, yet force- ful, truthful and fearless statements of facts. The result is, that, national ace organization has risen greatly in the estimation of all “loyal Afro- Americans. May the council's stand- ard never again be lowered 1s our sincere and earnest wish, “SEGREGATION IN POLITICS.” A few months ago an Afro-Ameri- can im the city of. Chicago was nomi: nated, on the regular republican tlek- et for a judgeship. Immediately our people of that city gave it out that they were going to elect an Afro- American judge. This agitation of ‘the race question In connection with the judgeship drew the white people together, and as a result they voted against the Afro-American and he was defeated. Had the Afro-Americans of Chicago gone quietly ahead and worked to elect the ticket, without calling attention to the fact that an Afro-American was a candidate for Judge, there is no doubt that he would have been elected.—N. Y. Age. ‘As usual, here of late, the Age's editor is wrong. Ferdinand L. Bar- nett was elected Judge, but was count. ed out and not for the reason our con- ‘trere alleges. It was simply a game of very bad politics—the counting out of Barnett. That is all. No such con- dition existed In Chicago upon the part of Afro-Americans there, as the Age charges. Then too it is positive- ly silly for any sane person in this day and time to talk about citizens of a city the size of Chicago going “quietly ahead” and working “to elect the ticket,” without calling attention to the fact that an Afro-American was @ candidate on it. Every man, wo- man and child in the community would know it and keep it in mind Just as much, if not more, if such an effort were made. The Afro-Ameri- gan has tlothing to fear here in the north from our confrere’s bugaboo (segregation in politics) because there Is absolutely no danger of their ‘being too much of it. That ig an im- possibility! “The fact of the matter is the bisek man’s success in this ‘section of the country Is almost en- tirely dependent upon such influence ashe can bring to bear along that Jine of action upon the powers that be, being so largely in the minority as @ factor of the republican party everywhere. White voters will not band themselves together to defeat Afro-American candidates because they themselves cogregate along ra- lal and organization lines whenever they find it necessary to do so. This Is at times @ very proper thing for them to do, too. Indeed it 1s the only Way to secure certain things they oftimes hold vitally important. The Irish, German and other factors of both the republican and democratic Darties frequently follow this line of action. So does organized labor. The Age's second far-fetched Taft buga- boo statement that the Afro-Ameri- ‘ean of the north Is likely to be “strip- ped of his power at the ballot-box,” because he too, sees fit in the usual ‘way to compel a recognition of his potency as a republican factor, is as silly as the Age's statement that: “Already in Ohio there 1s a feeling that the entire white vote will go to Taft because the Afro-Americans are against him.” Whoever made that ‘Statement, toid a wilfull lie that is as barefaced as it is ridiculous. Such @ condition is simply an imposatbil- ity. “Whenever it comes to an is eue,” If tt ever does, it will be found ‘that within the ranks of the repub- ‘ican party of the state of Ohio, Sen- ‘ator Foraker has ten friends to every one the subsidized Taft movement can marshall. It will take a much longer time than has elapsed since Secretary Taft delivered his now no- torlously traitorous speech at Akron in 1905, for the republicans of this state to forget the disaster he brought to the party atthe fail election of that year. It has been placed to his Aiseredit by all loyal members of the party in Ohio, without "reference to Tace or class, and there {t will re- main until such time as they may see fit to remove it—in the dim misty future. The only individuals who are “feathering thelr own nests” are the vietims of the “illy-white” Taft boom- erang subsidizers who seem to have the editor of the Age safely in thelr clutches, we are sorry to say. For his information, we wish to: add, that ‘Ohio Afro-Americans who have au- nounced their determination to stand by Senator Foraker as faithfully as he has stood by “The Black Battal Jon” and the entire race, and who have adso announced their determination not to support next year Taft, Roose- velt or any man he may name, are not of the kind he has evidently been accustomed to in New York state or elsewhere who are in the habit of ac- cepting orders from “cliques of white” or any other kind of “men.” The Ohio Afro-AmeHean os a MAN all the time and not a political or other hire- ling at any time, HOW THE AGE HAS CHANGED IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS! WHAT HAS CAUSED IT? THE RECENT INTERSTATE COM. MERCE COMMISSION RULING. According to recent Washington Aispatches to the dally newspapers of the country, the interstate commerce commission has ruled that the su- preme court of the United States has upheld the right to segregate white and colored passengers on railroads. ‘It can legally do nothing of the kind. ‘Therefore elther the newspaper dis- patches referred to are wrong or the Jnterstate commerce commission ts in ‘error. The supreme court of the United States has ruled that any state has the right under the law to enact 4 “Jim Crow” car law for’intra-state Passengers; those traveling from one point to another in the same state. ‘The recent interstate commerce com- mission decision unquestionably has reference to this kind of, passengers. The supreme court has not as yet handed down a decision upholding the action of many southern states in thus discriminating against inter- state passengers, but on the contrary has in recent months ruled against “Sim Crow” car laws’ interference with the free and unrestricted rights of first class inter-state passengers to sit wherever they please on railroad and other trains, the inter-state pas- Sse Delng one who travels tron ‘one point in one state to a point In another state. Sald passenger may ‘eros one or more states in going from starting point to end of journey. Insofar as the inter-state commerce commission insists upon states hav- ing “Jim Crow” car laws for intra. state passengers, compelling their railroads to provide the same and equally good accommodations for both classes, it 1s In perfect harmony with the amendment to the Hepburn rail- road rate bill introduced by Senator Foraker last. winter. This is some gain over the present deplorable con- dition of affairs existing in all states Navidie “Sth Grow” car laws. Olean, N. Y., News.

To this | At Datchart, Tex, eight convicts The one thing the Negro voter in Ohio and all over the United States must keep seriously before him is not to be @ “dud.” In Cleveland if the G. 0. P. organs, who have spoken so sweet-scentedly of our people want to beat “Johnsonism,” they must have the Negro voter to heip do the job. But if they are so much in earnest they must be willing to give and take. Tltese papers run by. white folk who are not of gentle blood ought to be decent enough to speuk respect- fully of our people in public print and must give up “Taftism” if they want our help to beat “Johnsonism.” ‘They must be made to learn at the ballot box, if they cannot see the signs of the times, that the Negro Voter does not propose to have Taft shoved down his “craw” by means of the republican ticket. Taft Is offen: sive to the Negro voter and the rp- publican ticket must not also be made So. Care must be taken in selecting the G. 0. P. nominee for mayor in Cleveland, and in fact in all our elt: es, because the Negro voter has his blood up and will walk grimly to the polls and do some frightful scratch- ing if proper men, who have always spoken respectfully of our race and acted properly toward them, either as a private citizen or as a servile of fice seeker, are not chosen. If this ‘Taft propaganda is not soon dropped, then there may be consequences on the day muntclpal elections are held. Negro voters, a few of our race hold. ing petty office, may want us to let ko of our self-respect and a fine op: portunity to “crack” somebody by vot- ing the G. 0. P. ticket once more straight as we have done in the past. If we are to give, let the people who are trying to force Taft on us, give some and drop his case. The G. 0. P. politicians think our voters will forget at the last and be amenable to cash, but the Negro who does that 4s unworthy to have sucked “mother's milk” at a Spartan “black mammy's” breast. He would be an ingrate to his race and should be justly treated 50, “PLAYFAIR.”” BAD EXPOSITION Norfolk, Va.—Editor Gazette. Dear Sir: Every state has a day at the Jamestown exposition, but our people ugnt to stay away from it. ‘They are hot wanted anywhere except at the Bate (50c) and in the Negro exhibit, because they are “Jim Crowed” or refused in almost every other place fon the grounds. 1” pald first class fare ($24) for 60 days here, from Cin- cignati, and have been “Jim Growed" at the ‘exposition so much that 1 be gin to feel like a crow, if I do not look like one.

H. TURNER, SENATOR FORAKER. The free trade N. Y. Times (dem.) would have Senator Foraker removed from the United States senate, and possibly from public life, but fortn- nately it is a question in which The Times will have but little influence; the matter rests wholly with the vot: erg of Ohio and we have not the least doubt that Senator Foraker will be re- turned to his present seat to trouble ‘The Times und those who think as {t does a few years longer, This will be the most fitting answer that The ‘Times can receive as to ‘the mistrust the ‘Amerlean people must feel for rm Let The Times fully understand this fact, that the welcome that was ex- tended to Senator Foraker at Wilber- force university a few days ago, cor- rectly expresses the feelings of the Afro-American race towards a truly great man. This feeling belongs to the whole race, and not a part, as The Times seems to think, nor Is this feel- ing simply expressive for his efforts in righting a great wrong that will ever be a blot upon the career of the president and his secretary of war, but for his unswerving belief in doing what he thinks is right and just since he has been in public life. ‘We know not whether Mr. Foraker will be the choice of the national con- vention, nor do we know that he wishes to be such a candidate, but The Times can be assured of this fact, that the Afro-American voter may not be able to name the dele- gates from the several northern and western states, but they will be an ef. fective force in the election cr defeat of the next nominee of the natidnal ‘convention. The time has arrived that this class of voters think for themselves and are not tied to the tallend of any ticket that may be named. It may be fully known now as later, that neither Theodore Roose- velt, Elihu Root, or Judge Taft, can or will receive the support of the Afro-American voters of northern, middie and western states Wate bade at atere inck anon te. seph Benson Foraker as a repubifean of the old schoo}, that which produced Lincoln, Ben Wade, Joshua Giddings, Charles Sumner and Thaddeus Ste- phens, men who battled earnestly and late for the rights of man. To this class Senator Foraker belongs, wheth- er he becomes president or not. He will ever receive the confidence of all Afro-Americans in this country.—Phil- adelphia (Pa.) Weekly Tribune.

He went back in the car to smoke , The three rear seats are for Negroes and have also been used by whites who smoke on the street cars. Mr. Gordon's ac- tion has-very fortunately opened up the whole legal aspect of the separate seat law, inasmuch as if Mr. Gordon could not be required to move, then colored citizens who! might take a seat in the white section could not be re- quired to change their seats. A Mixed School Victory. Topeka, Kan—The supreme court hag decided that Wichita, by its board of education, in the absence of status tory authority, has no right to exclude a child because of {ts color from any of its public schools, The action was brought in the Wichita district court by Mrs. Sallie Rowles, on a writ of mandamus to compel the school board of the city of Wichita to admit her daughter, Fannie, fo the Emerson school. in 1889 Wichita passed an or- dinance providing separate schools for our children. The district court re- fused the mandamus action of Mrs. Rowles. She appealed to the supreme court, which has reversed the Sedg- wick court ruling. unisar Sererment and.

We havo not forgotten that grand galaxy of heroes, Wendell Phillips, Owen Lovejoy, Garret Smita, ‘William Lloyd Garrison, Charles Sum: ner, Honry Ward Beecher, Judge Al- dion W. Tourgee, Benjamin F. Wade, Salmon P. Chase, the immortal John Brown, the sainted Lincoin and thou- sands ‘of others who suffered in our behalf; and we know that uot one of them, ‘it called back to life, would express a feeling of pride that any of his. relatives had fought to, dis solve the Union and against himan freedom. “We are for Senator Foraker, for anything he wants, whether presidest of the Ualted States, re ‘election to the senate of the United States or retirement to private life. But whatever his personal ambition “may be, we believe in the inherent right of every American citizen to “stand pat” whenever any individual, ‘class or organization of men seek to secure his elimination from public life, whether it be the president of the United States or his hero worshippers. “Having the most profound regard and veneration for the late Hon, Al -phonso Taft—father of the present secretary of war—who, as attorney general In the cabinet of General Grant, was a true friend to our op- Dressed brethren in the aouth, we re ret that duty to our race and coun- try compels us to state that on Wil Ham H. Taft, distinguished as ho 15, ¢annot and will'not obtain the support of the Afro-American voters for the high office of president of the United States so long as he stands admitted: ly the personal candidate of Theodore Roosevelt. While we aro aware of the fact that conditions may bring about bis nomination, we also belleve that conditions and votes will bring about his defeat if nominated, We jhave reached that point where we would prefer to have ia the office. of president a man of different political faith, than to elect to that exalted of fice & supposed political friend who would be false to the baste princlplos of the grand republican party. “We declare that henceforth and forever, 80 long as we remain {den- tied with the republican party as firm believers in its principles, and active workers tor its success, giving to it our numerical support without which, in many counties, districts and state—and even in the national elections—republican victory would not be possible, the practice of our white republican brethren of getting themselves together, holding star. chamber sessions, selecting candi. ates, deciding quostions, ete, and then looking to us to furnish votes, shall no longer be submittetl to us, bat instead thereot we demand the full recognition in all the counctis of the party that our numbers and in- telilgence represent.

SOMEWHAT OF A REFLECTION, Naive Comment of Debutante That Aen Hicetaas, A charming hostess of one of the “big houses,” as they are called by those who are welcomed into them, has the added beauty of premature white halr. That which seems to her contemporaries an added charm may appear to the crudely young a mark of decline, at least so {t appears In ‘one instance of which the hostess her- self tells with enjoyment. ‘The lady is a connoisseur of an- tiques. At one of her teas a debutante rich with the glow of youth, but sadly constrained with her sense of novelty, was handed a cup of tea; the cup was beautifully blue and wonderfully old. The hostess desiring to light en the strain on her youthful guest by a pleasant diverting remark, said: “That little cup is a hundred and fit ty years old!” “Oh,” camo the debutante's high strained tones: “How careful you must be to have kept it so long!” SCALY ERUPTION ON BODY, Doctors and Remedies Fruitless—Suf. fered 10 Years—Completely ‘Cured by Cuticura. “Small sores appeared on each of my lower limbs and shortly afterwards they became so sore that I could scarcely walk. The sores began to heal, but small scaly eruptions ap- peared. The itching was so severe that I would scratch the sores until the blood besan to flow. After I suffered thus about ten years I made a renewed effort to effect a cure. The eruptions by this time had appeared on every part of my body except my face and hands. ‘The best doctor in my native county and many remedies gave no relief. All this was fruitless. Finally my hair began to fall out and I was rapidly becoming bald. A few months after, having used almost everything else, I thought I would try Cuticura Ointment and Cuticura Soap. After using three boxes I was completely cured, and my hair was restored, after fourteen years of suffering and an ex- penditure of at least $50 or $60 In vain- ly endeavoring to find a cure. B.

Strenuous Actions Mildly Explained by the Minister. Many stories are told of the ec centric doings and sayings of an old clergyman who lived in Maine some years ago. At one time there had been a fight among some men, one of whom was seriously hurt. A trial took piace, and the old minister who had seen the affray was sui moned as a witness, “What was Salson doing?” was the first question. - “Oh, he was slashing around.” “Well, sir, just what do you mean by that?” “Why, he was knocking about him here and there.” “Now, sir, kindly tell us plain- ly what Salson did to this man.” “Why, he—he enticed him,” sald the old minister slowly. “He enticed him with a crowbar. He used the crowbar to persuade the man—to en tice him; and by a series of pokes and blows he succeeded in doing it," said the minister, mildly. SAVED FROM DREAD FATE. Kind Woman's Assistance Meant Much to This Tramp. A certain lady, noted for her kind heart and open hand, was approached not long ago by a man who, with tragic air, began: “A man, madam, {8 often foreed by the whip of hunger to many things from which his very soul shrinks— and so it is with me at this time, Un less, madam, in the name of pity, you give me assistance, I will be com: pelled to do something which I never before have done, which I would Sreatly dislike to’ do.” Much Impressed, the lady made haste to place in his hand a five-tol lar bill. As the man pocketed tt with profuse thanks, she inquired: “And what 1s the dreadful thing Thave kept you from doing, my: poor man?” “Work,” was the brief and mourn: ful reply.—Harper's Weekly.
