EFFECTIVE EMBROIDERY FOR SUMMER PARASOL A Soutache Motif Embellished with French Dots—Half of Motif. WILLOW PROFESSIONALS TWENTY-SIXTH EFFECTIVE EMBRASS FOR SUN Soutache Motif Embellished with ONE of the daintiest accessories of the summer wardrobe is the sunshade. A parasol boasts more virtues than the eminently practical one of shading the eyes from the impertinent rays of the sun. It gives an air of smartness to the summer girl. The display of sunshades in the shops is as attractive as it is varied, and many of the models shows designs of this year's vintage. Decidedly the most effective of the parasols for all-around use are the embroidered linens. A woman who is clever with her needle may transform a plain, unassuming linen sunshade into a chic embroidered affair that might have come straight from Paris on the latest steamer. A sunshade of white linen, with one of the new square light wood handles, may be purchased, and the above design, half of which is given, applied to each of the sections, as shown in the sketch. The design may be traced on the parasol with carbon paper. It is then worked out in coronation braid, French knots and satin stitch in floss embroidery silk. Blouse of silk, made with tucks headed by fagoting and trimmed yoke, fashioned with a heavy cord embroidery. The long, close-fitting sleeves are encircled with tucks headed by the fagoting, and are finished at the wrists with ruffles of tulle or lace. Shepherd's Plaid Coats. Few women feel themselves fixed for the summer without a loose top coat hanging in the closet. They seem more necessary in spring and summer than in winter. They are the height of fashion and fortunately they are not always expensive. The fashionable ones come in a dull white camel's hair serge, and in a black and white shepherd's plaid. They are loose, have many pockets, are made with long sleeves, and reach to within four inches of the ankles. THE GAZETTE The coronation braid is to be sew on in the space between the double lines. This outlines the flowers, leaves and stems, and forms an inner line on each flower petal. Small white French knots are worked between the two rows of braid. The petals are filled in lightly with long satin stitches of irregular lengths with delicate pink floss. The effect of the glossy texture of the silk is extremely pretty. The center of the flower is composed of one large yellow dot surrounded by tiny rose colored French knots. The stem and leaves are of the coronation braid, and the latter are filled in with pale green floss. The color scheme is charmingly dainty, and would harmonize with almost any costume. A sunshade decorated in this way would be an attractive addition to the trousseau, or to the outfit for college commencement festivities. It would be highly appreciated as a graduation gift or wedding present, and is equally suited to town and country use. FABRICS OF SILK AND WOOL. Latest Decree of Fashion Has Overshadowed Everything Previously in Vogue. There are more silk and wool materials put on the counters each week. New ones that were kept until late in the season have been shown to the public. These are made up into coat suits or one-piece frocks, and are often striped. Some of the colors come with a plain surface for the skirt and a striped surface for the coat. Silk-and-wool bengaline is possibly the favorite of them all. The corded fabrics are in the height of fashion. The idea even runs into shantung and pongee. There seems no end to the latter weave. It overspreads everything else. Not why is hard to say, for it is rather *nglake* when made up and cannot be tended up or graceful lines. Some of the weaves are delightful for house frocks, and the material has practically 10 weight, it makes a most comfortable frock for this hot climate. One of the latest weaves in *re* has a diagonal cord through it. It is very wide and heavy, much like the stylish serge we have worn all winter. Cleaning Tan Shoes A raw white potato, cut in halves and peeled, is excellent for this purpose. Rub the potato, which must be freshly cut, well into the leather, leaving no part untouched. Let this dry on, then polish with a rag with a light, quick motion. A little turpentine on a flannel rag is also a good cleanser for tan leather, while several drops of lemon or orange juice give a brilliant polish to any leather. Olive oil, with a brisk afterpolish, is used on patent leather. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1909. FAME FOR GIRL, WOE FOR FATHER FAME FOR GIRL, WOE FOR FATHER SHE SINGS BEFORE ROYALTY WHILE AGED MAN WORKS HARD. MORTGAGED HOME TO GIVE HER EDUCATION T. W. Walker, Who Recently Sued Wife for Divorce, Tella Ssd Tale - A Finale of Rachel L. Walker's . Ambition. Thos. W. Walker's suit for divorce came up in Common Pieas court before Judge Keeler, last week, Thursday, Mrs. Matilda L. Walker, his wife, and Rachel L. Walker, his daughter, the singer, have for years, made their headquarters in London, England. Walker is written the court, making application for money and passage from London that she might attend the divorce hearing. In his petition Mr. Walker charged his wife with wilful absence only. She made no charges against him in her answer but said she was without funds with which to return home and contest the case. The Walkers were married in 1865. The daughter, Rachel, was a teacher in our public schools, and a singer (opera) for above the average, before going abroad to continue her musical studies, about fifteen years ago. Mr. Walker has been janitor of Eagle Street school for twenty-nine years. "I borrowed money on our home that I might send my daughter away," said Mr. Walker. "My wife went with her as chaperon. We had confidence in our daughter and believed she would win fame and riches. Well, my wife has done both right, but only she told me to lend her still amying interest on that loan and it is getting larger every year. I used to think that some day I wouldn't be a janitor any more, but I guess I will have to work harder than ever now. I will soon be seventy, but am pretty strong yet. My wife would be in London. Sometimes I hear that Racehouse and other name than her old father's—sings before this crowned head or that. That is all. My girl is over thirty anyway, now, and I guess she don't need a chaperon anymore." Relative to Mrs. Walker's application, referred to above, Judge Keeler said. "I will not put a heavier burden on this man. I think he has more than he can carry now. I guess the wife can get over here and if she has a good claim she will be taken care of at the final hearing. She will get no temporary allimony from this court." Mrs. Walker has been from England but once or twice during all these years ago. Mr. Walker evidently had given up all hope of her or his daughter ever returning to him again.

His Bout with O'Brien Was No Test of Anything. Springfield, O.—That six-round bout between Champion Jack Johnson and Jack O'Brien at Philadelphia was taken quite too seriously by a great many of the fight fans hereabouts. By all accounts it was a rattling good exponent, and he was known skill and speed caused much enthusiasm among his townsmens at the ringside. O'Brien, with characteristic shiftiness, was in and out, constantly peppering the big fellow on face and body, but at no time did his blows appear to have the slightest efficiency. He was not usually made a rash and forced "Jack" to the ropes before him, and once in a while sent in a fairly stiff poke in the midrub or face. But according to the press dispatches Johnson made no desperate attempt at a knockout. The bout was just what the people of Philadelphia wanted—an exertion that was not usually showing "Jack" Johnson's style against one of the fastest boxers who ever stepped into a ring. But in that bout Johnson in all probability went there prepared to give the people a good run for their money. He certainly did not go there to allow the fight to continue, and he have landed a knockout punch if the opportunity presented itself. But finding O'Brien such an elusive customer, the big fellow just contented himself with an occasional rush. Sometimes he caught O'Brien and some times he did not. But it was a good bout, and both men caught the money, and good wads of it. To the bout given no opportunity for Johnson was not trained as he would be for a championship fight. In fact, he never took this Philadelphia bout seriously, and did no regular training for it. Give the black man his dues; he is one formidable fighter, and a man who beats him must be a good fighter, and it unless he can get back into his old form, and there is serious doubt in expert circles about his being able to do that. M'Cants Stewart, Jr., Loses a Leg. Seattle, Wash.—Last Friday week, T. McCants Stewart, Jr., while trying to alight from a car, which started up before he got off, was dragged a distance, with no one seeming to care whether he was assisted or not. He finally lost his grip and fell off the front wheels and torn off. Had anyone on the car half way tried, the young man would have been saved from his fate. Strange to say, a Lutheran and Baptist deacon were on the front end of the car, discussing their religion, and because of their fellow countryman's black skin they stood by and saw him die. Mrs. E. Dunham, the new chef at the Z club dining room, is giving splendid satisfaction. She is not only a first-class cok but is obliging and has excellent judgment. It will only require a meal or two to convince anyone of the correctness of the foregoing.

WESTERN RESERVE CITY CLEVELAND, O. HISTORICAL SOCIETY A FORAKER SCHOLARSHIP. Movement to Establish One at Wilberforce University—Perpetuate Memory of Able Statesman. Wilberforce, O. — The suggestion has been made in influential circles (the Cleveland, Ohio, Gazette) that a scholarship be established at Wilberforce University as a testimonial of the high esteem in which the Negroes of the country hold former Senator Joseph Benson Foraker. This is looked upon hereabouts as a very happy suggestion and numerous communications have been received stating that it's the most fitting way to express in a permanent fashion our affectionate regard and veneration for the distinguished statesman who did so much for the Negro soldiers in the Browniesville matter. Wilberforce University will witness the establishment of the Foraker home and being the institution closets to his heart, is certainly the ideal place for the establishment of such a scholarship. There is no doubt that Senator Foraker would appreciate the distinction his admirers would thus confer upon him, and it goes without the saying that the authorities of the college would be enthusiastic beyond measure in the establishment of the culmination. A leading minister of Green county is of the opinion that if the colored people in the country would fall in with this very practical suggestion it would not be long before there would be established at this historic seat of learning a scholarship of at least $10,000, which would be a fortunate thing for the college. It has been reported that a group of well known colored gentlemen are willing to head a subscription list, and to popularize the idea they think of the individual donations to $1—except in special cases where the giver is the possessor of large means, and is particularly interested in Negro education. It has been reported that a group of well known colored gentlemen are willing to hold and contribute liberally if a start is vigorous made. The Negroes from ocean to ocean would gladly testify in this fashion to their gratitude for the labors of their champion if they could be aroused and made to see the value of letting the strong men of the opposite race know the importance of justice are too fresh in the national mind. He has built his own monument in the hearts of the plain people, and all that ought to be necessary to awaken the Negro sense of gratitude is to indicate the method by which the proposed honor can be best be conferred upon this earnest battier for the right. A hint to the wise is sufficient. It remains with the colored people of the country that justice will be the plan that will not only give credit where credit is due, but assist materially in the treatment of nature's nobleman for whom the eminent statesman has fought with unexamined vigor.—R. W. Thompson in several exchanges. THAT GEORGIA STRIKE. The True Inwardness of It All, Out at Last — Where President Taft Stood and Still Stands. Washington, D. C.—For some years the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen has been agitating the question of the elimination of the black man from the locomotive cab, and has even discussed it at several recent conventions. The objection is not due to the possibility of the Negro being placed in a superior position to the whites. As a active hour. The white man is accustomed to the rank of engineer. But there is a rule in force on southern roads under which the best runs are awarded to firemen oldest in point of service White Man Works Longer Hours. As Negroes cannot receive promotion, their length of service usually gains for them the coveted runs, and they work three, four or five hours a day, while white firemen, assigned to freight trains, have to labor eleven or more hours a day, also forced, as a result of the operation of the rule, to do the hardest work—switching, etc. It was brought out during Mr. Neill's investigation of the strike that Negro firemen receive only $1.75 per day for doing work for which white firemen receive $2.75 as a minimum, and as high as $3.50 as a maximum. As Negro firemen are in use to a large extent in the railroad industry, it will be readily seen of what importance, from a financial point of view, is the proposition to require the roads to use none but whites upon locomotives. Not Wanted in the Union. Another difficulty of the situation lies in the fact that the Negroes are not organized. They thus stand in the position of wage cutters, and represent a force at the disposal of a railroad to break a strike. They have made efforts to join the union, but have been told they were not wanted, and they have never been able them to effect a satisfactory organization. But even if they should enter into the union, they might possibly be benefited from an economic point of view, but hardly from the standpoint of better relations with white men employed in the same class of work. Moreover, the railroads undoubtedly would give preference to the whites upon their trains if the Negroes were to demand wages as high as those the latter re- Taft Still With Them! The strike upon the Georgia railway was settled promptly because of the firmness displayed by Commissioner Bacon of the PAC, Senator Bacon of Georgia sent a telegram to some of his constituents, declaring that the sympathies of the president were with the whites, and that the sympathies of the blacks—Chicago Daily Tribune (Repub.) IN WILLOW DISTRICT 45TH AVENUE T. REV. DR. B. J. PRINCE. The Splendid Testimonial and Farewell Reception Tendered Him on Tuesday Evening at Shiloh Church. A Strike Heroine. Augusta, Ga.—For protecting Joe Bryant, an Afro-American fireman, from a mob of scoundrels, Mrs. Margaret Sylvester, a prominent white woman of this city, is acclaimed as the heroine of the recent Georgia railroad strike. The attack on the man was made late May 29, before it was generally known that the strike had been settled. A barbarous mob assaulted Mrs. Sylvester badly. He broke away and ran, with the mob in pursuit. The chase led near the home of Mrs. Sylvester who called to him to come in. He obeyed and the white brutes tried to follow, but Mrs. Sylvester barred the way and attacked. She told the brutes that if any member tried to enter her house she would shoot him. His attitude cowed them and they retreated. Mrs. Sylvester then had the Afro-American's wounds dressed and turned him over to the police for protection. First he had to have ever been friendly towards our people, but God deliver us from the lower grades of whites—the trash! To Honor the Poet Dunbar. Paul Lawrence Dunbar, in whom the colored race produced a true poet, is to have a warthe monument. On June 26, the anniversary of his birth, the memorial will be unveiled in the Woodlawn Cemetery, Dayton, O. It will take the form of a granite bowler with a bronze tablet bearing a stanza from Dunbar's "Death Song." Many distinguished people will participate in the exercises. This deserved recognition of the poetical gifts of the Afro-American, who sang the joys and sorrows of this race in lyrics or poignées, is the most creditable proceeding - Philadelphia Press. 2 One Year..... 41.18 First Month..... 1.90 Three Months.....

It is generally understood that President Taft will appoint a white man as Col. J. H. Deveaux's successor as collector of customs at Savannah, Ga, and this continues his "new southwestern policy" another relatable phase of which was developed in the forced settlement of the recent strike in that state. The president has, as yet, his FIRST Afro-American appointment to make, although he has struck the race some terribly harmful blows, both north and south. His "hot-air jolles" (speeches) are intended to cover all this up, but they don't and won't. To date, he has not done a single helpful thing, as far as Afro-Americans are concerned. NEGROES AS SOLDIERS. Negroes as individuals, and even as regiments, have fought in wars on this continent since an early period. The Spaniards in Florida had Negro troops two centuries ago. A Negro, Acuff, is said to have taken part in the Boston tea party, and there were several Negroes in the battle of Bunker Hill. One of them, Peter Salem, shot Maj. Pitcairn. When a picked body of American soldiers surprised and captured Maj. Gen. Prescott, commanding the British garrison at Newport, it was a Negro who led them. An entire regiment of Negroes fought for the American colonies in the revolution. In 1778 Rhode Island passed an act granting freedom to slaves who enlisted in the continental army, giving them the same pay as whites and paying their masters their full value. There were 755 Negroes in regiments from Connecticut, New York and New Hampshire in 1778. There was much opposition to their enlistment, but it was almost necessary to counteract the efforts Britain was making to enlist them. In the far south this opposition could not be overcome, and great numbers of slaves were killed by the British army. Maryland was the one southern state to enlist Negro soldiers, putting them indiscriminately into white companies. In the war of 1812 Negroes were early employed. New York created two Negro regiments in 1814. Gen. Jackson invited the free colored inhabitants of Louisiana to come to the colors, and they furnished him a considerable contingent at the battle of New Orleans. Just before the battle he issued a proclamation in which he said: "You surpass my hopes. I have found in you united, soldierly qualities, that noble enthusiasm which impels to great deeds." In this war the British used colored troops against the Americans in Alabama, where their army was principally negroes and Indians. During the early days of the civil war no Negro soldiers were used by the north Indeed, great opposition was made to their employment, even as laborers, by quartermasters and engineers. Within two weeks after the fall of Fort Sumter the south began to enlist them. The north was fearful of offending southern sensibilities, but no such consideration prevented the south from using the free Negroes. In a review at New Orleans, November 23, 1861, there was a regiment of 1,400 free colored men. The status of the Negro in Louisiana—that old French and Spanish colony—was, and even still is, different from his status in other states. There was a very large element of free colored men, quadroons, mulatos and even an occasional full-blooded Negro. Strange to say—and here is a most interesting unwritten chapter for the historian—many of these people owned slaves themselves. The jet black Dumas family of Point Coupe parish, on the Mississippi, were one of the richest families in the state, and dined off silver plate. The free colored people of Louisiana were defending their property when they fought in the southern army. Gen. David Hunter was the first northern officer to enlist Negroes. He claimed authority under a war department order directing him to accept the services of "all loyal persons who desired to aid in the suppression of the rebellion in and around Port Royal." He was ordered to discharge them. On August 25, 1862, Gen. Rufus Saxton was authorized to enlist 5,000 Negroes. In December, 1863, 100,000 Negro troops were in the service, and the total number during the war was 186,017. Negroes have always served in the navy and are not segregated as they are in the army. An agitation is now in progress to abolish the separate Negro regiments and place black and white soldiers in the same regiments. Negroes and whites have no trouble with each other in the navy and mess together in complete amity. In 1812 about one-sixth of the American sailors were colored and there was an en- tire absence of prejudice against them. They were especially numerous in the ships on the great lakes. Commodore Chauncey sald: "I have nearly 50 blacks on this ship and many of them are among my best men." Commodore Perry was originally opposed to them, but finally gave them high praise for good conduct and insensibility to danger. In the celebrated picture of Perry's victory a Negro appears in the foreground. The fine service of the Negro soldiers in Cuba and the Philippines is well known to all. Poings of the Race Over 3,284 Afro-Americans have been lynched in the last twenty-five years. There were 250 graduates of Tuskegee, Ala., Normal and Industrial School this year. All of Annapolis Md.'s 800 Afro-American voters have recently been distranchised by a local (municipal) law, except in the settlement of Sheriff Greer (white) of Brookhaven, Miss., for a lawful association with a woman of the race is an advance step taken by the best white people in Mississippi. Roger D. O'Kelly, a Raleigh, N. C., one-eyed Afro-American, born deaf and dumb, after studying at Shaw University, has obtained a license from the Supreme Court of that state, as an attorney. The first battalion headquarters, officers, and band of the Twenty-fifth now in the Philippines, has been on duty inattle,attle, Nash. The other battalions of the regiment will go to Fort Wright, Spokane, Wash.

The recent mixed New York convention on the rights of our people, adopted a resolution demanding enforcement of the 14th amendment; the accordance of equal educational advantages to all; that the Afro-American in the South should no longer be deprived of the ballot as guaranteed under the Fifteenth Amendment; and condemnation of the Taft's attitude toward our appointment to office, particularly in the South. Hon. Henry W. Furniss, American minister to the Court of Hayti, recently returned for a few weeks visit to his home in Indianapolis. The World regrets to state that his reception was not what it ought to have been by his race in Indianapolis, who are honored by his selection to fill an office of diplomatic position, as was by his own high character as a gentleman. He was tendered no reception, either of a public or private character, but was allowed to go unnoticed and unhonored. If this was intended as a reflection upon Mr. Furniss, it failed of its purpose, as he cannot be injured by such neglect. Rather, it was a reflection upon the fact that he was honored in honoring Mr. Furniss would have honored themselves — Indianapolis World. That Railroad Strike In attempting to force the Negro out of locomotives on the Georgia railway the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen is in danger of creating serious trouble for itself, which may very possibly lead to exactly the result they seek. The present rules Negroes are never promoted to be engineers. The brotherhood bases its action on the fact that, since Negro firemen are never promoted, they finally are given the best runs because of length of service, while white firemen of less experience are assigned to the hard runs. Senator Bacon has announced that President Taft favors outing the Negroes. The ten millions of Negroes in America are guaranteed by the constitution the same rights as whites. And after life and liberty, comes the right to work." To close the door of any honest trade to the Negro would be a crime. If these Negro firemen are discharged, the results. Such a step would be backward and not forward. And such a step will not be taken unless with full approval of the Taft administration. A rule keeps Negroes from the engineer's side of the cab. But a competent Negro is less likely to be a loco man. An incompetent Negro man. Rules may be changed to fit conditions. And if the present row results in the Georgia railways making engineers of competent Negro firemen, no one but itself.—Chicago Journal. Richest Black Man In the World. Richest Black Man in the World. San Diego, Cal.-You have heard of Tennenbaum the Diamond King. His wife overed him. Believe the month and as soon as he arrives in New York he will start across the continent to visit Goodman Bray. For as Tennenbaum is the "Diamond King," so Bray the "Tourmaline King," probably the richest black man in the world. Tennenbaum picked up when he was 16 and went to the slums of New York. Tennenbaum took a liking to the little fellow because of his "jolly little laugh." The Diamond King sent him to school and then to college. Before he was twenty, Bray had charge of the wonderful diamond he owned. Tennenbaum his title as king. Then Tennenbaum made him his buyer, and for years the giant black traveled to almost every corner of the earth looking after the interests of his foster father. For the past eight years Bray has had charge of the Tourmaline mines at Mesa Grande, Mexico. He has carved the diamonds he wants, and although he is sixty miles from the nearest important city, he lives in the style of a prince. Colleton John H. Deysaux Dead Savannah, Ga., June 10—Col.

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 serve on juries on persons from serving on juries on persons of 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 security; it is impossible the necessity of securing the suit 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 adopting, any such amendment 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. The matter had not been disposed of, and SENATOR 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. I gives me pleasure to advise you that former law officers on the statute books, making it a crime for state officers to disqualify certain persons from serving on juries on account of race or color, is still the law. The attempt of southern congressmen to eliminate this section and similar prosecutions in a tangle in the senate, which was settled by dropping all such sections 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 force, the statute upon the statute books just 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. In this is satisfactory. I remain. Georgia Taft's Home Washington, D. C.—The Detroit baseball team, champion of the American league, was received by President Taft in the White House Monday afternoon. Each member of the club was introduced to the president by Representative Denby, whose home is in Detroit. Then Mr. Cobb, who led the league in batting last season, and who has abused many Afro-American waiters, was presented to htm, the president grasped the hand of the Georgian warmly, and said: "I believe you and I are fellow citizens of Augusta, Mr. Cobb." Cobb replied that he was proud to be a citizen of Augusta and a fellow citizen with Mr. Taft. The only difference between us is," responded the president, with a broad grin, "the down there they think you are about twice as big a man as I am." No Color Line in Money Dr. Booker T. Washington in his last address in New York said that "dollars draw no color line." The writer of this paragraph thinks the very first step in the onward march of the race is for our men and women to make themselves as presentable as possible and to render themselves physically acceptable in social and business circles. Then they will receive more money for the services they render to the country. More money rightly used is what the race most needs. The New York City Office of the Mayor makes specialties which help our men and women to improve their appearance. Some Afro-Americans, both men and women, are acting as agents for that company and making a good income. The address is 2 Rector Street, New York. Booth Receivership Lifted Cincinnati—The existing receivership in the Cincinnati branch of the A. Booth & Co. of Chicago was lifted in the federal court when Judge Thompson approved an entry of disdismissal of receivership proceedings. NO NEGRO NEED APPLY For seven long years Recorder Baehr has refused to appoint any Afro-American to any position in his office, 'though asked to do so three different times by the editor of this paper, The Gazette. Now he is hanging us votes again—for the fourth time. Wonder "what he takes us for"! In 1900, the editor of The Gazette, then a member of the legislature, lee the war that made Herman C. Bauer a member of the park board. HE is indebted to the RACE, and not it, to him. BAEHR OR McKISSON, WHICH? Before and after he was elected the first time seven years ago. County Recorder Hermann Bachr, who has about 40 male and female clerks and copyists in his office, was asked by the editor of The Gazette to appoint one of our young men and one of our young women to positions in his office as a clerk and copyist, respectively. This was a modest request considering the fact that the Afro-American voters of this county constitute practically one-fourth of its total Republican vote. This entitles us to four positions in the recorder's office instead of two. For seven long years, in spite of the fact that he has a representative of nearly every other class or race of people in the community, in his office as clerks and copyists, Recorder Bachr has steadfastly refused to appoint any member of our race to any position within his gift, and now comes forward as a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, begging us for votes. The duty of every self and race-respecting Afro-American in this community is perfectly clear as far as Mr. Bachr's latest candidacy is concerned. Hon. Robert E. McKisson, when mayor of the city, appointed more Afro-Americans to positions than any other Republican mayor in the history of Cleveland. This is a well-known and generally recognized FACT. Then too, he is the only member of the party who, as mayor, has had any opportunity to make a record on the street car question (the burning issue of the campaign) which commends him to the masses of the people of this city. In point of ability and as a campaigner, he is recognized by all men, well acquainted with him and Mr. Baehr, as being greatly the latter's superior. His platform, which he announced recently, is one of the very best things that any candidate for office in the city of Cleveland has ever issued, and has commended his candidacy, for the Republican nomination for mayor this fall, to the great masses of Republicans and intelligent people generally. In the strongest possible manner. It is certainly an exceptionally strong and concise statement, showing unmistakably an exceptional familiarity with municipal affairs, and a most commendable determination to do those things most needed by Greater Cleveland and in the shortest possible time, if nominated and re-elected to the position of mayor this fall. And, that is exactly what we expect to see done because of the phenomenal growth in popularity of his candidacy within the week. If Mayor Tom Johnson is to be defeated in November, the Republicans of this community must be led by a fearless and sterling campaigner, a man whose exceptional knowledge of municipal affairs, and whose record on the burning issue of the campaign, has made him a leader in the masses of the people of this city. Such a man, is ex-Mayor Robert E. McKisson. MANIFESTLY UNFAIR! The Misleading 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 badly muddled state of financial affairs and other inimical conditions existing in the island. The manifest injustice of this moved the editor of The Gazette to send the managing editor of both papers the following letter, which is self- Cleveland, O., June 4, '09. 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 doubtless know, less than one-third of the population of Cuba is the one-third does not control the island indeed in a very slight and in certain management of the same, and certainly the people of this city and the country ought not to be impressed with the idea that Cuba's colored population is responsible for the 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 the people of this country, to ask you to see to it that in the future such cartoons give the correct impression, letting the responsibility for mismanagement of affairs, misconduct, etc., in Cuba and elsewhere rest where it belongs. The colored people of this country and Cuba have burdens enough of their own to carry without having upon them those many. Many of the past I have been tempted to write you relative to this matter, but always felt that each cartoon of the kind might possibly be the last one. The enclosed, if memory serves me correctly, is about the worst of the lot. Cleveland, O. June 5, 1908. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—I am calling our art's attention to your note in regard to his cartoon on Cuba. Let me thank you for writing us and assure you that if any offense was given by the cartoon we very sincerely regret it. Yours truly, E. C. HOPWOOD, Acting Managing Editor.

COLORED SKIN MADE LIGHTER The Chemical Wonder Co. of New York manufactures 7 chemical "wonders" which enable colored people to improve their appearance. These wonders cost 50c each. White women spend millions to beautify themselves. Colored people should make themselves attractive as possible. Colored men who use these wonders secure better positions in banks, clubs and business houses. Colored women occupy higher positions socially and commercially, marry better, get along better. (1) Complexion Wonder Creme makes dark skin lighter colored, not with artificial white, but naturally; makes the skin itself lighter colored every time it is applied. Keeps the skin healthy, soft, fine. Makes any colored face more attractive. Improves any colored countenance like magic. (2) Magnetto-metallic comb, called "Wonder Comb," can be heated before using and will straighten any hair. Will last a lifetime. (2) Pomade, called "Wonder Uncurl," uncurl kinks in hair and keeps it straight, lustrous and flexible. Wonder Uncurl heated into the scalp with a Wonder Comb will make the kinkiest head of hair look handsome. (3) Wonder Hair-Grow. Fertilizers in cornfields make cornstalks grow, so this fertilizer rubbed into the scalp makes the hair grow longer. Strengthens the scalp so it can hold the hair from falling out. It can be heated into the scalp with a Wonder Comb. (5) Odor Wonder Powder instantly destroys perspiration odor. Thousands of men are barred from good salaries because of this unseen horror. Thousands of women are shut off from marriage and social life by this invisible barrier. People cannot detect perspiration odor on themselves. Every living being should use this. (6) Odor Wonder Liquid is delightful as toilet water; can be used with Odor Wonder Powder or separately. Surrounds the body with fragrance. A great luxury for those who can afford it. (7) This pink variety of Complexion Wonder Creme, No. 2, is called Shell-Pink. Gives lovely pink cheeks to light brown or maluatto colored faces. Light brown complexion with pink cheeks marks great beauty. Information book titled "Correspondence free." Please send your address. Agents can send your address to 321-333-3333.

PRESSED HARD Coffee’s Weight on Old Age. When prominent men realize the in- Jurious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the benefit of others. ‘A superintendent of public schools In one of the southern states says: “My mother, since her early child- hood, was on inveterate coffee drinker, had been troubled with her heart for a number of years and complained ot that ‘weak all over’ feeling and sick stomach. “Some time ago I was making an offl- cial visit to a distant part of the coun- try and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavour of the cof- fee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that it was Postum. “[ was so pleased with it, that after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal. The whole family were so well pleased with it, that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. “I had really been at times very anxious concerning my mother’s con- dition, but we noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to its use, and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. ‘This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. “{ know Postum has benefited my: selfand the other members of the family, but not in so marked a de- gree as in the case of my mother, as she Was a victim of long standing.” Read, “The Road to Wellville,” in pkgs. “There's a Reason.” Ever read the above letter?

Probably one of the most wonderful as well as useful of modern inven- tions is that of a New York scientist who has just secured from the Gov- ernment protection on a lamp burner, which by converting the oil into hy- dro-carbon gas, burning on a mantle, gives an eighty candle power light with less oll consumption and with- out carbonizing the mantle or over- heating the lamp. It can be fitted to any lamp and the wick lasts a life- time, There is absolutely no danger, no odor and no smoke. The Union Light Co, of New York City, have ac- quired the selling rights of this burn- er, which is called the “Herzog,” after the inventor, and, we understand, are making a special discount to introduce it into each township with a view of securing a local representative.
