TWENTY-SIXTH YEAR. NO. 46. THE VOGUE IN PARIS THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICA TWENTY-SIXTH THE V IN DAUNTY, dazzling, delicious, such are the creations which Dame Fashion has introduced for the summer of 1909. To accommodate the clinging, slinky, floppy styles now in vogue, materials are all of a kind calculated to fall in soft folds and drape in folds known as "classic," and which are purely Parisian, and as much superior to classic folds as the smart Paris gown is to the cumbersome toga, writes Marie de Montaigne. Sheer white embroidered robes are features of this and the coming season, and these are distinguished for the delicacy and exquisite workmanship of the embroidery. This, in the better class of machine-made embroidery, rivals hand work in beauty, and only an adopt or the person who paid the bills could tell the difference between them. Our first illustration shows an admirable design in the latest mode for our warm season. It is a gown that may be made up in a wide variety of materials, from Aloch to chiffon. When a gorgeous dinner gown could be created by making the guipme and stock; the full drawn puff across the front between the empire band and sash, and the sleeves of silver tissue with a gown of thin blue satin; or of gold tissue with any kind of black evening material. In the first case the empire bolero with its short upper sleeves; the sash, cuffs, edge of overskirt and bottom of skirt would be embroidered or braided in silver. In the next instance the black gown would be embroidered in gold. To make an afternoon gown of this model use soft silk or satin, and work an elaborate pattern of hand-embroidery or soutache braid over the broad part of the bodice, which is formed somewhat on the bolero order in regard to brevity, and which serves to support the skirt by means of two broad, embroidered straps which are buttoned to the top of the sash. Of course, the strap is usually sewed firmly to the sash, but it is quite possible to fasten it on the button and with a concealed hook and eye in each corner. This would permit one to wear a sheer blouse on a warm day without the embroidered covering. The overskirt is looped in upward folds on each side, and is embroidered to harmonize with the design used upon the bodice. This begins in a tiny scallop high up the front of the overskirt, and increases in the size of scallops towards the bottom. Buttons or button effects are set in each scallop. Usually these are of raised embroidery, beginning with a mere dot and growing to quite a large disc lower down on the overskirt. Upon the skirt is repeated another harmonizing embroidery or braid design that extends around the bottom on and above the hem and straggles up charmingly into an irregular point upon the front of the skirt. The bottom of the skirt lies on the floor in full, floppy folds all around and has a slight trail in the back. Between the embroidered bolero sleeves and cuff is a plain sleeve, fitted and buttoned down the outer side. --- THE GAZETTE This may be of the dress material or of the sheer fabric used for the collar and front of the gown. When built of thin white or flowered summer cotton fabrics the embelished portions of the gown may be cut out of all-over embroidery or lace and supplied by edgings and floundings to match. Striped linen is used in making up the gown shown in the illustration on the right. A combination of plain and striped linen would also be most effective in this model, while silk, in the same plan, would also serve charmingly. The coat is built to fasten at one side under a panel front, in each of which is inserted along the middle a piece of trimming material. A semi-fitted effect is given the garment by means of narrow plaits or pln tucks that extend from below the bust down and emphasize a short-walsted appearance. A babyish round collar is edged with trimming, which may be either a striped material or tucking, similar to that used upon the coat panel. Large buttons decorate each shoulder and also the sleeve cuff and straps around the upper arm. Perhaps the most striking feature in the gown is its pretty sleeve. This is mousquetaire, of three-quarter length, and shows, below it, a fitted cuff of lace or such embroidered material as may be selected to trim the dress with. A plaited skirt, made walking length, completes an effective costume, which might be made up attractively in any cotton, linen, silk or thin wool goods suitable for a dress to be worn in the forenoon. With this costume is shown a basish-shaped hat with flowers around the crown and big loops of soft ribbon hanging over the back. Linen is an admirable material in which to build the model shown. It is a style equally adapted to light wool and silk fabrics.-Boston Herald. ORNAMENT FOR THE HAIR. A Becoming Coronet of Silver Fill- gree and Seed Pearls.

OUR JURORS IN THE SOUTH OUR JURORS IN THE SOUTH A GEORGIA CONGRESSMAN'S EF FORT TO ELIMINATE THEM FAILED. THE GAZETTE EVER ON WATCH The Penal Code Bill Was Amended in the Lower House—Senator Dick Explains How Bartlett's Amendment Was Lost in the Shuffle. Cleveland, O, May 23, '99. Senator Charles W. Dick, Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: In February I sent you the following letter, and for fear the matter has been overlooked or forgotten, I am sending you a copy of it: "I notice in a Washington dispatch to local newspapers under the date, Feb. 18, 1909, that the house of representatives on that date passed a bill revising, amending and codifying the penal laws of the country; a somewhat similar measure had previously passed the senate. Both measures are now in the hands of a committee on conference. The house bill was amended by a Mr. Bartlett of Georgia so as to allow a color line in juries by repealing the law in force which made it a crime for state officers to disqualify certain persons from serving on juries on account of race or color. It is hardly necessary for me to call your attention to the necessity of securing the rejection of the Bartlett amendment by the committee on conference, and, if this is impossible, the necessity of securing the same result when the conference committee's report is being acted upon in the senate. It does not seem possible that a Republican congress could accept, to say nothing of admonition, any such bill as amended by Mr. Bartlett of Georgia." Sincerely yours. HARRY C. SMITH. The Senator's Reply. Washington, D. C., May 28, 1909. Dear Mr. Smith:—I have your favor of May 21, sending me a copy of a letter you wrote in February in regard to the revision of the penal law. At the time you wrote me I think the matter had not been disposed of and Senator Charles Dick. when it was settled I was so crowded with other matters that I have overlooked the letter, and I thank you for calling my attention to it. It gives me pleasure to advise you that the former law on the statute books, making it a crime for state officers to disguise certain persons as Congressmen, according to race or color, is still the law. The attempt of southern congressmen to eliminate this section and similar provisions from the penal code resulted in a tangle in the senate, which was overturned by the Supreme Court out of the penal code, but at the same time the section repealing those statutes was also dropped out; so that while that particular statute is not in the penal code, it remains upon the assent that as before. I think you are safe in feeling assured that a Republican congress will never adopt such a provision as was proposed by Congressman Bartlett of Georgia. Hoping this is satisfactory, I remain THE JACKSON GRADUATES. An Old Citizen Dead—Personal Mention—Other Local News of Interest. Steubenville, O.—The W. R. club met at Mrs. L.

The Maleasing Cartoons Relative to Cuban Affairs Published Last Week in Two Local Daily Papers. Last week Thursday and Friday and frequently since the Spanish American war, the Press and the Plain Dealer have published cartoons that gave the impression that the colored portion of the population of Cuba was responsible for the badly muddled state of financial affairs and other inimical conditions existing in the isl and the manifestation of the movement of The Gazette to send the managing editor of both papers the following letter, which is self-explanatory: Cleveland, O., June 4, 1909. Dear Sir:—The enclosed cartoon from your paper is, but one of many that I have noticed in it since the Spanish-American war. As you could imagine, the population of Cuba is colored. This one-third does not control the island. Indeed, it cuts a very slight figure in the management of the same, and certainly the people of this city and the country ought not to be impressed with the ideas that Cuba's colony conduct of its affairs, especially those open to criticism upon the part of other peoples. Yet this is exactly the impression that the cartoons from your paper, such as the one enclosed, make in this community at least. Such unfair impressions are harmful to my people, and I wish to ask you to see to it that in the future such cartoons give the correct impression, letting the responsibilty for mismanagement of affairs, misconduct, etc., in Cuba and elsewhere rest where it belongs. The colored people of Cuba, the burdens enough of their own to carry without having loaded upon them of others. Many times in the past I have been tempted to write you relative to this matter, but always felt that each cartoon of the kind might possess one of the enclosed if memory serves me correctly, is about the worst of the lot. Yours fraternally, HARRY C. SMITH. The Plain Dealer's Reply. Cleveland. June 6, 1993. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—I am calling our artist's attention to your note in regard to his cartoon on our wall and assure you that if any offense was given by the cartoon we very sincerely regret it.

Do You Want a Nice Baby? General Agent A. E. Williams of the Humane society, Chelsea, Cleveland, O. has sent the following letter to the Gatesize: "I wonder if, through your paper, you could help us in placing a little Colored child for adoption. The child is a girl, born in December, and is one of the most attractive babies I have seen for some time. She is legally in our possession; so if we could find a family which, on investigation, would prove to be the right sort of a family to take over it, up, we could turn it over for legal adoption. The child, I am sure, would brighten and cheer a home where it is a real desire on the part of the parents for a baby. If you can be of any assistance in the matter, it will be greatly appreciated by us." Another Civil Rights Suit. Bellefontaine, O.—Joseph Briggs, a lawyer of Belle Center, has sued Geo.

SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SO-CALLED GRAY MATTER OF PREJUDICED SOUTHERNERS They Keep on "Harping—Their Silly Claims and Statements—"Section-alism" Dominant—Lincoln Hissed—No Patriot-ism. To the Editor: After over a year's residence in the far Southland, and reading "hot stuff" in about every paper that is published in the South, I have wondered whether the Southern people, or the press have a bad case of grouch. Their heads seem to have something wrong with the so-called gray matter, or they surely would not print the stuff they do, and call the late rebellion a "sacred cause." When I think it would look better if they would drop all such stuff, or else call things by their right names. Those Southern papers with their flinging at the North all of the time put me in mind of a yelping terrier snapping at a big St. Bernard. When will these grouchy people ever realize that the South is in a small part of our great country, that they are behind the rest of it, and that their grouch is the cause of it, and will continue to be until they change their tactics? Even at this late day the Southern papers on a hangout at the North about the mismanagement of the construction days. Admitting that there was some mismanagement on the part of the North, the greater part of the trouble was due to their own sympathizers, and the rest was just the natural outcome of a torn-up whose disjointed ends would not fit. But the Southern press claims that the North tried to disgrace them, when the simple truth was that they disgraced themselves. Was anything the North could have done a greater disgrace than the South that were Andersonville, Libby prison and Belle Isle, not to mention some other things? While the South remembers, the North will not forget. It is all right to honor brave men, but is it wise on the part of the South to keep harping on the "lost cause"? If that "cause" had been right or just had not been have now a "lost cause." The Southern people claim that they are more chivalrous than are those of the North—another idea that has no more foundation now than it had when they showed their chivalry by hammering at the government that had trained them to lose the lost cause and that is this. They are talk about the reconstructions day and boast of what the South has made out of herself since, and seem to forget that it was Northern capital that made the new South what she is to-day. North was the humming, and Northern skilled labor that turned out the first products of the new industries—and they are still the moving springs. Now, while I want to be just in my criticism of the South, yet the plain truth is it's all sectionalism instead of patriotism, and the "lost cause" is held up as something sacred. At a moving picture show here in the so-called Jacobite succession, Lincoln making his memorable and dress on the dress of Gettysburg was hissed. Think of that; the greatest man that ever trod American soil hissed by a city that owes its existence to Northerners! That shows the way the wind blows in the South. Will those people ever realize that God handed this country to us, and set the flag of freedom over all its people? A VIRGINIAN. Birmingham, Ala. —Chicago Daily Inter Ocean. LINES WRITTEN AT A SOLDIER'S GRAVE By George Everett Stone, A. M., of Cleveland, O., at the Odd Fellows' Cemetery, Alexandria, Ind., Thursday, April 29, 1909. The storm is breaking o'er a soldier's grave. One of those who have often saved Our country, our flag, our homes, yes, all! For those yet awaiting that sacred call. He is lying still beneath the sod And his soul has gone to answer God; And as we stand here now to weep May our hearts his sacred honor keep. For we are one in this land of joy, Made so by those hearts without aloy; So place bright flowers upon the grave Of the glorious manhood we went to save. Our country needs the such as him; Let's girdle on our arms with vim And march again to the battle cry Of those who went to do or die. Respectfully dedicated, with kindest regards and best wishes, to Major May Post, No. 244, Department of Indiana, Grand Army of the Republic, at Anderson, for Decoration Day, 1909. Dr. U. S.

Our Four Regiments Now Have Afro-American Band Leaders Except One—Lincoln Building Company, Etc. (Special to The Gazette.) Washington, D.C. The trustees of Howard united five law professors. Prof. Cook is a permanent secretary-treasurer of the university. Prof. Cook is at present dean of the commercial department and acting secretary. He is very popular with the faculty, the students and the alumni. He is sound. It is a splendid selection. The total population of the District of Columbia is according to a police census just completed, an increase of 3,800 over the census of last year. The total number of white residents is 245,861; the Afro-American population is 97,142. The total number of white children eight years and over is 4,150; the tending school is 45, and colored children 71. The population of alleys is given as 1,608 white and 13,410 colored. The population of the eight villages and towns outside of the city of Chaplain W. T. Anderson. Washington and in the District of Columbia is 62,825 white and 20,070 colored. Another notable addition to Howard university's faculty was made in the person of Prof. R. R. Wright, Jr., of Philadelphia, originally of Savannah, Ga., who comes by unanimous election to take the newly created chair of sociology and will also be in office for Wilkinson. He is a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and has carried on some sociological investigations among Philadelphia Afro-Americans at the instance of his school. For a number of months he has been serving as editor and business manager of the Christian Recorder, filling the unexpired terms of Dr. H. T. Johnson, who is on sick leave, and the late Dr. Collett. This man has been a friend of Theo E. publishing board to find another man to run the Recorder. William Polk, for many years assistant leader of the Twenty-fourth Infantry band, now stationed at Madison barracks, Sackett's Harbor, New York, has been designated by the war department as chief musician of the regiment. He is also in conformity with the order of ex-President Roosevelt to place Afro-American band masters at the heads of our regimental bands as rapidly as openings could be made for them. This gives the race three of the four band masters provided for our regiments in the army. Chaplain W. T. Anderson of the Tenth cavalry, who ranks as major has been given the rank of Captain. W. E. Gladden of the Twenty-fourth infantry, at Leavenworth, Kan. serving on a board of inquiry. The Baltimore (Md.) Afro-American Ledger, in referring to the Taft administration, spoke our sentiments when it said recently, editorially: "We are not especially anxious for another 'lily-wish' administration.

Sidney Pittman, president, is a son-in-law of Mr. Booker T. Washington. An excellent booklet and circular letter are being sent broadcast throughout the country. Bert Williams a "Scream." Boston, Mass.—Bert A. Williams of Williams and Walker made his debut in the vaudeville world alone at Keith's recently, where he is a "headliner." According to the local daily papers he is now a Post; "One of the best numbers was furnished by Bert Williams. His 'That Plenty.' 'Carrie Nation Jones' and 'That Loving Man' were loudly enforced and he was forced to repeat his hit of several years ago, 'Nobody.' His dancing was a perfect scream. His Transcript comments in part as follows: "Bert A. Williams ended his turn with a dance of indifference, a laconic dance, if you will. There seemed to be no end to the entertainment that one man can afford; and when the leader of the orchestra smiles broadly the jokes are bound to have a true humorous savor." One Hundred and Six Years Old. Middleport, O.—The Woodman's memorial services were held Sunday at p. 10.

An American traveling abroad met an Englishman with the rather remarkable name of Pthorne, which was pronounced Thorne. “What's the good of the 'P?'” the American queried; “you don't pronounce it, do you?” The Englishman gazed at him with the manner of one who, while he pites, is bored. “What's the good of 'h in 'orse'” he questioned, convincingly—Spare Moments. Predatory Instincts. The inherited predatory tendency of men to seize upon the fruits of other people's labor is still very strong, and while we have nothing more to fear from kings, we may yet have trouble enough from commercial monopolies and favored industries, marching to the polls their hordes of bred retainers. Well, indeed, has it been said eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. God never meant that in this fair but treacherous world in which he has placed us we should earn salvation without steadfast labor—John Fiske. Obedience. Prompt and unquestioning obedience is the corner stone of the foundation of success in life. No man can give orders properly who has not learned to take them, and "save he serve, no man may rule." It will be found that the men who have won their way to positions of power and responsibility have invariably been the men who did not reason or argue or even "respectfully represent," but who promptly did as they were commanded without questioning. It is the large man, not the little man, who recognizes a superior authority. MAKING SUNSHINE It Is Often Found in Pure Food. The improper selection of food drives many a healthy person into the depths of despairing illness. Indeed, much sickness comes from wrong food and just so surely as that is the case right food will make the sun shine once more. An old veteran of Newburyport, Mass., says: "In October, I was taken sick and went to bed, losing 47 pounds in about 60 days. I had doctor after doctor, food hurt me and I had to live almost entirely on magnesia and soda. All solid food distressed me so that water would run out of my mouth in little streams. "I had terrible night sweats, and my doctor finally said I had consumption and must die. My good wife gave up all hope. We were at Old Orchard, Me, at that time and my wife saw Grape-Nuts in a grocery there. She bought some and persuaded me to try it. "I had no faith in it, but took it to please her. To my surprise it did not distress me as all other food had done and before I had taken the fifth package I was well on the mend. The pains left my head, my mind became clearer and I gained weight rapidly. "I went back to my work again and now after six weeks' use of the food I am better and stronger than ever before in my life. Grape-Nuts surely saved my life and made me a strong hearty man, 15 pounds heavier than before I was taken ill. "Both my good wife and I are willing to make affidavit to the truth of this."

Presuming that you would like to know a little of my success in that line, I will say that I have been actively farming under my own supervision for seven years 2,000 acres of fine farming land in Macon County, Mo. I have also studied the conditions in which we have in favorable seasons raised 75 bushels of corn to the acre, 30 bushels of wheat and 2 tons of hay. I have also studied farming conditions in the high priced lands of Illinois and Iowa. My own experience and this observation leads me to believe that if the best farms in any of these States for any five years average 50 bushels of corn to the acre, and that the farmer realizes there are many opportunities to grow and out of this, expense, etc., of raising crops must be deducted. "A year ago I went to the lower Rio Grande Valley in the Gulf Coast Country of Texas and spent some time studying farming conditions there; I found my 20 years' experience on a farm in Bourbon Co. KY, and my long experience in Missouri of great service. So much impressed I was with the vast superiority of farming in the Brownsville, Texas, region, that I bought 160 acres of land near Santa Marina, Texas, and put my son (a college boy) in charge of the farm. I anticipated. He has cut alfalfa sown in January, 1908, 9 times, and realized therefrom 8 tons to the acre, worth $21.50 a ton at Mercedes, Texas, in February. He is now shipping cabbage planted in December, realizing between $200 and $300 an acre, and writes me that from the cabbage, cucumber, melon and bean crop of 40 acres, he will realize over $7,000. He has a fine fig orchard of over 7,000 trees set out in February, 1907, which raised from 10 acres in July and August, 1908, over $100 worth of figs to the acre and the entire crop this year should realize over $100,000. He has two more two years old, are bearing now. One old lemon tree has borne over 2,000 flemons since July, and bananas are growing all the time. In my roamings in Europe and America I have neither seen a country nor a climate that compares with it." --- Absolute Purity NEW YORK W. N. U., CLEVELAND, NO. 24-1909.
