ELBOWS REQUIRE MUCH CARE Effects of Season of Net and Lace Sleeves Must Be Carefully Removed. Elbows which have been scarified by a season of net and lace sleeves will need very careful cuddling before they may appear with grace in the ball dresses of winter. One authority ad- vises rubbing the joint every night with olive or almond oil, giving it a good scrub with a stiff brush and soap and wafer beforehand. A careful dry- ing with a soft old cloth is an im- portant point, but it is while the flesh is still warm and the pores open that the oil is supplied. In extreme cases of rolghness the operation is helped by an oil-soaked pad which should be bound on at night. A flesh brush may also be employed to advantage on the small eruptions which sometimes appear on the upper arm and upon the back between the shoulders. As lack of circulation is generally the cause of these, the friction will cause their entire disappearance in time and keep the skin immune from a second crop. The flesh brush is likewise necessary for removing the dead skin from the body, for if these dry particles are left to another the pores the skin can never present a healthy or clean look. Use the brush with a five-minute' dry rub, and then after the bath wield it courageously for a good five minutes more. PRETTY TAFFETA WAIST. Blouse of biscuit-colored taffeta trimmed with narrow brown velvet ribbon, the ends of which are fastened with gold buttons. The tucked chemisette is of chiffon, with yoke of gulpure, of which the cuffs are also made. Suits for the Autumn There has been much conjecture concerning the tailored suit of the future should the panier become popular. But at last an inkling has been given of what we may expect. One of the suits for earliest autumn is of cheviot, with a very long coat. The gown underneath is trimmed around the hips with a short tunic of the cloth itself. This, while it fits the figure, is cut on panier lines or circular, and it is only evident when the coat is removed. THE GAZETTE CARRY ALL THE IMPEDIMENTA Useful Dressing Pouches Have Attained the Popularity That They Deserve. Automobile dressing pouches are rapidly superseding all kindred receptacles, as they not only hold an amazing amount of luggage, but may be crowded into a surprisingly small space. They are made of tan or stone gray waterproof motre, leather lined and strap handled, of khaki rubber-proof material, English pigskin, patent leather, russet or black, alligator and genuine wurst skin. Grain leathers of various kinds of finish are employed for combination bags, which have a lower portion adapted for holding skirts and an upper section supplied with cold cream, boracic acid and soap receptacles, as well as compartments for brushes and manicure tools. While club, kit, kit, Oxford and Gladstone bags in real walrus skin are deemed exceedingly smart, they are rather difficult to handle, whereas the oblong shaped leather lined wicker dressing bags are wonderfully light of weight, capacious and the very latest device for holding motoring luggage. FIXES THE DANCING SLIPPER Small Piece of Waxed Tape All That is Necessary for Comfort and Safety. Many girls find the low-cut shoes and pumps difficult to keep on at the heel, but since this style of boot is fashionable they persist in wearing them on all occasions. A piece of waxed tape, the narrowest width procurable, run through the binding at the top of the shoe and tied beneath the bow or rosette in front, will help considerably to keep the boot from "pumping" up and down at the heel. The same scheme may be tried with satin evening slippers. For suede pumps, black or white, bows made of the same leather are now more fashionable than either felt ribbon pumps or fancy buckles. In purchasing suede pumps it is better to buy those with wooden heels, as the leather heel runs off so quickly and thus ruins the whole effect of the shoe. In white shoes especially it is advisable not to have the leather-covered heels, which become stained so quickly with grass or mud, and which stains it is often impossible to eradicate. Fashions in Trimmings In trimmings Dame Fashion has stamped her approval on pipings, laces, buttons of the large and small sizes, embroidery and braids on the late summer gowns. Princess, baby Irish, duchess lace are all used. The nets, which have answered the purpose of collar and vest for so long, are relegated to second position. Slips for Brooks The shops now offer at small prices slips of muslin, white or colored, to go under transparent frocks. These have a lace-dedged ruffie, are cut low in the neck, and have-straps on the shoulders edged with lace. Silk or Crepe de Chine. When cleaning small pieces of silk or crepe de chine or any fancy piece, first wash in castle soap and hot water, then dip in benzine, which lends color and brilliance to it. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1909. HIRSTIUS GUILTY SAY BOTH OF THEM CITY CLERK WITT AND DIRECTOR SPRING IN SIDE INFORMATION WHY STREET WAS NOT OPENED The Gazette Was Right in its Contention, as usual—Our Refusal to Support Hirstius and Others Fully Justified—Some Interesting Letters. As is well-known The Gazette was bitterly opposed to the election of Sheriff Gus Hirstius, because when a member of the council (from the 12th ward) Hirstius refused to permit a street to be cut through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between Perry street and Greenwood street, because a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so "because colored people would come through" the street from Cedar avenue and "peer into their windows." He withdrew an ordinance which he introduced in the council (authorizing the proper city authorities to cut the street through) at the request of the above mentioned preu- Gus Hirstius. diced Cedar avenue residents. When he was re-elected to the council, Hirstius, a second time, promised to have the street cut through, but steadily refused to keep his promise. The following is pertinent and self-explanatory. Read the letters carefully and thoughtfully: Cleveland, Nov. 19, 1908. Mr. Peter Witt, City Clerk—Dear Sir: Just before election, Councilman Hirschus made a statement in a political meeting to the effect that he had passed an ordinance, resolution or something in the city to allow moving for cutting a street through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between East Twenty-second and East Twenty-eighth streets, opposite Skeed street, or in that vicinity, which he claimed, though passed by the council in July last (the work of cutting the street through) has been held up ever since by Director Springborn or someone else connected with the city government. How much, if any, truth is there in his claim? Last year or the year before the same individual introduced an ordinance, resolution or something in the council, providing for cutting a street through in the same vicinity. Will you tell me whether or not the resolution, ordinance or whatever it was referred to, was ever passed by the council, and why the street was not cut through at that time? By complying with the above requests at your earliest opportunity, you will greatly oblige me. Yours truly. HARRY C. SMITH Editor The Gazette Nov. 23. 1908. Hon H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette- Dear Sir, On July 9th you No. 5268 by Mr. Hirstus provided for the opening of East Twenty-fifth place to Cedar avenue. It passed the same month on the 24th day. The im- provement was not made for the reason that Mr. Hirstus did not want it. His reasons for not wanting it, I have been informed, were and possibly are that the people in the immediate vicinity of the proposed opening did not people of your race to come through. In May of the present year there was a resolution introduced, and passed in June, looking for the mak- ing of a new street between Central and Cedar avenues about opposite Sked street. This improvement was never made for the reason that the people of your race to come through the sale of bonds was for the opening of dead end streets and not the making of new streets. It is the custom of the administra- tion to defer to the wishes of councillen for ward improvements, and I feel sure that the only reason the im- provement at East Twenty-fifth place was not made was because of race prejudice which Mr. Hirstus listened to. Would suggest that you call up Mr. Springborn and get from him a con- firmation of what I have given to you as a rumor. Very truly yours. Nov. 25. 1908. Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette.—Dear Sir, Answering your favor of the 21st inst., with reference to the enclosed letter from Mr. Witt, would say that the facts are as Mr. Witt states, and had Mr. Hirstius desired an opened through to Cedar avenue it would have been done long ago. At the time it was proposed to make this opening Mr. Hirstius invited me to meet with him a committee at the close of one of the council meetings. The committee represented the property owners and residents on Cedar avenue, where the improvement was intended to be made. They protested against its opening, and the result was that the committee and the result not to have it made. AND ASKED ME TO HAVE NO FURTHER STEPS TAKEN IN THE MATTER. It was not until recently that the case which we had started in court to condemn the property was dismissed. We have always made it a rule to act in accordance with the wishes of the councilman representing the ward in which improvements of this kind are to be made. It therefore seems that MR. HIRSTIUS ALONE IS TO BLAME FOR NOT HAVING THE STREET OPENED. Yours very truly, W. J. SPRINGBORN, Director Board of Public Service. GEORGE F. WATERS Candidate For the Republican Nomination For the City Council in Editor The Gazette - Dear Sir: Your letter of inquiry relative to my candidacy for the city council, ward 12, was received sometime ago, too early for reply. I have now completed a preliminary canvass of the ward to ascertain if my candidate will respond from the rank and file of the Republican voters, and on August 15 filed petitions with the board of elections, containing more than 350 names of Republican voters of the ward. Relative to myself, I was born in Johnston, Missouri, and my parents were farmers and as a consequence I was born and brought up on a farm. My father was of Scotch- Irish descent and my mother English, their descendants coming to this country during the earliest settlement of New England. My parents when I was a small child moved to the same county in the same county (Lannville) and there I attended the district school. I spent three years attending the Johnson Vt. State Normal school, graduated and then taught school in the state or three or four years. I read at the University of Michigan in the same county in Burlington Vt. then went to the University of Michigan, took the two years' course in law, graduating therefrom in June, 1894, with the degree of bachelor of laws. While in the university I also took up English literature and elocution. After graduation I went to the first vote for the Republican governor of the state in the September election. I spent a few months in a law office in Barre Vt. took the bar exam mont bar. I came to Cleveland in May, 1895, a stranger and with less than $100 in my pocket. I was admitted to the Ohio bar by examination in the fall of the same year. Voted the first time in Cleveland for William H. Respoused and voted from my present address. No. 2240 Cedar avenue, since the latter part of 1896. On April 26, 1898, responded to the first call for volunteers in the with Spain and enlisted in Co. L. 5th Ohio Vol. Inf., and was discharged with the regiment on November 5th of the same year. I was elected to the Republican committee in Cleveland in the spring, 1899, was elected the Republican committeeman from the old 12th ward in 1903, serving on the last committee of 64. Since then I have served as precinct committeeman, with the exception of '05. That year I was a member of the Republican convention of the respective presidents, my prey, I have always supported the head of the Republican ticket, whether national, state or city. If I am nominated and elected to the council from the 12th ward. I shall first of all represent all the people of the ward and not any man or set of men and believe a councilman should keep in close contact with the people of the ward I believe should hold immediate settlement of the street question on a business basis, advantageous to the people and just to a company, if that is left to the next council, so that the city, can go to work at other things, viz: A new Union depot, a new bridge, a new harbor facilities, elimination of the remaining grade crossings, a high level bridge and completion of improvements all ready begun. Any farther information that you may desire in regard to my candidacy will be gladly given. GEORGE F. WATERS JOHN H. RUSHTON Candidate For the Republican Nomination For the City Council in the Twelfth Ward. Cleveland, O. Sept. 1, 1999. In seeking office in the city council from the 12th ward, it has been and will be my aim to seek the votes of the people direct, as I intend if nominated and elected, to serve the people and not any man or body of men. I promise you if nominated and elected that you will see more of your councilman in the future, as I intend to keep in close touch with the people and look after the needs of the ward. I believe there should be an immediate settlement of the street car question, if left to the next city council, on a business basis to approve the move to the company, subject always to a vote of the people. My position on this question is that I favor seven tickets for a quarter, except from 5 to 8 a. m. and from 4 to 7 p. m. when three-centure fare should prevail; for FREE universal transfers and a transfer on a transfer on all cross-town bus routes; and for the right to own the tracks whenever it sees fit to do so. Compare the above with the statements on the street car question of other 12th ward Republican candidates, please. Any help you may render me personally and with your friends at the coming primaries will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you and wishing you prosperity and happiness, I am. Yours very truly, JOHN H. RUSHTON. FRESH NEWS CHRONICLED LETTERS FROM MANY OHIO CITIES AND TOWNS SENT BY OUR OWN CORRESPONDENTS. Personal, Social, Lodge, Church, Liberary and Other Notes of Interest. Fostoria.—Miss L.

One People Now Pushes to the Front and Is Crowded Now to the Rear. (From the Literary Digest.) That there is no such thing, speaking broadly, as an "inferior race," that is, a race that is and must always remain inferior by reason of natural limitations, is the contention of Prof. N. Colajanni, who holds the chair of statistics in the University of Naples. In a recently published volume entitled "Latinis and Anglo-Saxons; Superior and Inferior Races," he sets out to destroy what he regards as the myth of pretended superior races. That use being based often taken prior to another at a given period he freely acknowledges; but he points out that their positions may be reversed in the following century, and that without infusion of new blood or other clearly tracable cause. Besides this, national and racial boundaries everywhere cross each other nowadays. Says a reviewer of the book in Cohmos (Paris, October 7): "Well-known authors have vaulted the superiority of the Anglo-Saxons, and it has even been the fashion among us to pretend that our own characters and to see no good qualities and no future success anywhere but among their neighbors and rivals. "But, in the first place, in what does the superiority of a race consist? And even if there were originally noble races, dare we assert that at the present moment there exists a nation whose spring from there is everywhere. Everywhere characters are mixed and fused; the national sentiment, the idea of fatherland, does not correspond to the measurements of the anthropologists, and sometimes even contradicts them in peremptory fashion; the shapes of the skull, the figure, the color of the skin, hair, and clothing; the thoughts and acts remain the same. "It is not, therefore, in ethnic factors but in physical, moral and social constitution that we must look for the causes of a nation's greatness or decidence. The author, among the Latin races, notes only his own, and compares modern Italy with England, Germany, and France, but he extends his investigation back to the historic past and shows in a general way that the superiority and inferiority of races are phenomena that relate essentially to the moment when they are observed. Races are superior at one moment, and without the slightest change taking place in their anthropological composition, but at another moment. All peoples and all races, or rather all nations, have contributed their quota to the patrimony of civilization, which is not the exclusive possession of some one of them, but may rather be represented as a torch passed from one to the other. The decadence of nations has contributed to constitution and inner life; it was a moral decadence before becoming intellectual and economic. "Mr. Colajanni thinks that nations in decadence are not necessarily doomed to frremediable disaster, nor even to perpetual stagnation, but that they are capable of rising again prosperity and greediness, even out the infusion of hope into blood into them. Provided that they do not give up blood in themselves they have no sufficient reason to despair of the future." A "White" Man's Snobbery. A prominent chemist (white) of New York City writes us as follows: "A certain 'white' man, writer of New York, has written to the Evening Mail newspaper, criticizing a colored newspaper for publishing advertisements of preparations which help colored people to improve their appearance. This white critic's is a bigoted snob. When 'white' people spend millions of dollars, it will look well, it is all right, but the moment colored people try to look well, such men turn up their noses. Now it is just as important for colored people to improve their appearance as for 'white' people. Colored people get better positions and make more money if they are well groomed and prepossessing and presentable. When colored people make more money and use that money to buy clothes, they will solve itself." For free information on this subject, write M. B. Berger & Co., 2 Rector street, New York City.

McKISSON, The Next Mayor of Cleveland—Facts as to Him and County Recorder Herman C. Baehr. Before and after he was elected the first time seven years ago. County Recorder Hermann Baehr, 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 Baehr 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. Baehr's latest candidacy is concerned. Hon. Robert E. McKlisson, 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, are such as to commend him to the masses of the people of this city. Such a man, is ex-Mayor Robert E. McKisson. 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 begging us for votes again—for the fourth time. Wonder "what he takes us for?" In 1900, the editor of The Gazette, then a member of the Ohio legislature, led the fight that made Herman C. Baehr a member of the park board. HE is indebted to the RACE, and not it, to him. --- Ball Player Is Killed. Atlantic City, N.

Editor and Propreter THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature, 1904 to 1909 1866 to 1909 1909 to 1909 Cleveland, O., September 4, 1909. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published In the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. Editor Swann of the Chicago Ebony, a new weekly race publication, has sent us a copy of its first issue, August 21, and a copy of the Chicago Conservator of August 28, 1909, this latter as proof of the incorrectness of the Chicago Defender's statement (of the suspension of the Conservator) republished in our issue of August 21. On the top of the copy of the Conservator, he penned: "Don't let our enemies' lies confuse you. We are here to stay." The following is from the copy of the Conservator, received: "The Conservator was not published last week because of a much needed reorganization and readjustment. After this, however, the Conservator will be brighter and better and more regularly and promptly than ever before." Ebony seems to be published at the same address as the Conservator. What their relationship, if any, friend Swann who seems to be connected with both, can and doubtless will explain. We cannot, and frankly admit that we are somewhat "confused" but not by the Conservator's enemies. However, we are glad to learn that one or both papers are "here to stay." They, and all true race papers, certainly have our very best wishes. "THE SOUTH" "WILL YOU WALK INTO MY PARLOR." On all occasions when Southroners or their appendages North, discuss affairs of the states below the Ohio, one comes across the stereotyped term, "the South," which always means the "white" population. It never for once occurs to these arrogant and "self-sufficient" persons that the "South" includes de facto some seven or eight millions of Afro-Americans. Mary of these are even economically of consideration; all of them, of course, numerically—as a part of the Southern states. The old "slaveholder" idea is evidently still the controlling idea in the heads of the stagnated "aristocracy" and its progeny. Southern Afro-Americans ought not submit to this arrogant overlooking. And Northern "whites" of the laboring class ought to ponder well, before they play the part of the fly "in the spider's parlor." The old fable still teaches the correct lesson! The "South" will treat all laborers as "infuriators"! TAFT, AN OPTIMIST RUN MAD. There is at least one man in the South who doesn't know the war is over. He is Colonel G. N. Saussy of Gainesville, GA, and connection his appointment to the Governor Brown he wrote: "I am a Confederate soldier, still on parole, * * * I have never taken the oath of allegiance to the United States, and while God gives me life I never forget the saussy, eh?—Chicago Inter Ocean (Rep.) The "pun" is poor, at best. But the Inter Ocean overlooks the point of this news item. If such unregenerate rebels can hold official positions in the "most progressive and typical" Southern state, the time for concessions by the victor, who in this case also represented the cause of justice, humanity and national safety, to the vanquished, who attempted to uphold a sin and shame and to disrupt a nation, has not yet come. From several celebrations of rebel "heroes" in the south and enunciations like the above and that of no less a person than General Gordon, who also proclaims the "lost cause" as a "just cause" and asserts that "it is not lost," that it "will rise again," President Taft could learn a lesson, if he wished, that would show him the folly—not to say the criminality of his policy. "The end is not yet"—but it will be at an end, that will open the blind man's eyes by its very force. Taft is an optimist run mad. VOTE FOR M'KISSON! Mayor Tom L. Johnson's political adjunct, the Municipal "Assassination" (association), that combination of Democrats and Republican mugwumps or demopups, that two years ago preferred Tom L. to Congressman Theodore E. Burton, then the local Republican candidate for mayor, has issued its usual bulletin (the past week) and prefers its members' coworker in the Johnson political vineyard, Herman C. Bachr, to either Chandler or McKisson as the next Republican candidate for mayor. Of course it does! The "Muny" knows Herman is decidedly the weakest, because of lack of education, ability and experience, of all three candidates, and consequently the easiest, for Mayor Tom to beat. Then too, Bachr was due some favor at its hands at this stage of the campaign because he and his political manager, Maschke, are credited with having engineered the deal that secured Mayor Tom, "Maschke's Councilman," John D. McClain's vote, the one necessary to make a Democratic majority in that "august" body, secure the election of a Democratic city clerk, and other councilman "favors" for the local Johnson administration. And McClain was elected as a Republican by the Republicans of his ward!

More German Students Fresh evidence in support of Germany's claim to the foremost position in the matter of university education has been brought to light in statistics just published regarding the attendance at the higher educational institutions of the empire. The figures, which are based on the present attendance, show that a growing demand for university education has resulted in an increase of university students, as compared with last year. Of the 21 institutions reported upon only one, Jena, shows decreased attendance, and that slight. An interesting feature of the report is the evidence it affords as to the intellectual needs and ambitions of modern young Germans. Applications for instructions in mathematics, political economy, natural sciences, philology, medicine and dentistry show a marked increase. On the other hand, the number of students taking courses in law and theological branches has either fallen off or remained substantially unchanged.

He says, he was done because he is a "Negro." Davis mother is white. The entertainment given by Rev. H. C. Pope at St. John's church Friday evening was one of the best of its kind ever given in the city. Many splendid views were shown and explained and commented upon in his address within themselves, and many went away spiritually benefited as well as having been highly entertained. The crowd was the largest of the season. Cy Adams and Horace Jackson of East 9th street died Tuesday night well known in the city and had many friends who will mourn their demise. The funeral of the former will be held this week Friday from the residence and will be under the auspices of the K. of P. of which he was an acquaintance. Mr. Jackson will doubtless be burted Saturday or Sunday. The editor of The Gazette spoke in several of McKisson's tent meetings last and this week, and had his usual splendid success. It is anticipated that one or two more such meetings will be held in the 12th, 13th or 14th wards this week and Monday evening. Be sure to attend them and stay away from the Baehr meeting in the 12th and evening over which Sheriff Hirstus is to preside. Have and show race and self respect in so doing. Antioch church gave its pastor, Dr. H. C. Bailey, a month's vacation beginning the first Sunday in this month. On last week Wednesday evening about 30 of the members demonstrated the high esteem and regard in which he is held not only by Antioch's members but by the great majority of our residents of this community, by surprising me and his wife, by visiting Bailey with a purse and other gifts. An extremely pleasant social evening was spent, and refreshments were served. Rev. Bailey will return to his post of duty Sunday. Rev. Alexander Moore of Wellington has preached for the church during the pastor's absence. Dr. Andrew L. Smith of Chicago, an old Oberlin boy and a brother of Mr. Charles Smith, secretary of the chief of police, was in the city a few days before the pastor's visit. Friends. He gave The Gazette sanctum sanctum a very pleasant visit on Wednesday, and left Thursday with his six-year-old boy for Bloomington, Ill., to meet Mrs. Smith, who is visiting her parents. Dr. Smith is considered a Cleveland "boy" because he was so long and often in this city when a boy. Naturally we are very proud of his splendid success, and we are proud to have not only a fine practice but also a fine three story ston-faced flat, which nets him nearly $120 a month rent in addition to a residence, and is an assistant county physician "on the side" at $1,200 a year. This is "going some." Rah! for Andrew! As a precaution against a contest over his estate after his death, John H. Hope of E. 14th street, past 60, made application in probate court of his estate to John Smith, 2215 East 14th street, recognized as his daughter and heir-law. The old man explained that Mrs. Smith had been cared for by him since she was a little girl and that when age began to creep upon him she acted as a real daughter should. She acted as a judge Hadden Thursday. Mrs. Hope died last year. They are among our oldest settlers, coming here in the '60s from Wheclong. Mrs. Smith has been employed off and on for years in Mr. Jacob Perkins' power block on Frankfort avenue near W. 3d street, and, in 1970, he was native to Jackson, W. Va. has for years been on the west side of Ontario street near the Public square. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1909. Tom Fleming, a candidate for councilman-at-large, was expelled from the 12th ward Afro-American club some years ago for supporting a Democratic candidate for the council by the name of Hubbell. In a letter to the Hon. Jere. A. Brown, written August 1909, Harley Marshall, a former member of the board, told a letter from Tom Fleming wrote to him 19, 1903, with withdrawing a hemp (Fleming) had made to support him (Marshall), then a Republican candidate for the council. Marshall says in his letter to Mr. Brown: "You can say to my friends for me that Fleming, who is a Republican, anyone doubts your word I will write them and tell them." We also advise our readers 'not to vote for William R. Green for reasons so generally and well-known as to not necessitate repetition at this time. There are other, or at least another Afro-American candidate for councilman-at-large, who is clearly better to vote for him either Fleming or Green. Do not vote for either of these two. AS TO O. S. & S. ORPHAN'S HOME Discrimination Charges—Superintendent Sawyer's Reply—Extends Yours respectfully. E. D. SAWYER, Superintendent. DIXON AND SULLIVAN. Their Records as Champions Compared by Walter C. Kelly. Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of The Gazette, takes exception to my remark in last Sunday's paper to the effect that he is the greatest champion of them all, etc. He declares that George Dixon held the championship longer than Sullivan, and fought more battles than did the big Bostonian. As a matter of fact Dixon won the title of featherweight champion from Cal McCarthy in 1891, and lost it to Terry McGovney, then a champion for years, whereas L. L. Sullivan won the heavyweight title from Paddy Ryan in 1882, and lost it to Jim Corbett in 1892, beating Dixon by a year. The little colored fighter, however, did more fighting than Sullivan, for he began in 1886, and kept on campaigning until 1906, six years after he lost the title. Sullivan began his fistic career in 1880, and out the ring "too early" before he had another hit. So that in point of service Dixon beat him by eight years. But Dixon lost several decisions, including those to "Billy" Plimmer, Ber. Jordan, Frank Erne, Terry McGovern, Benny Yanger, and others. The writer was not discussing any but the heavyweight fighters in that article last Sunday. He was not praising the writer but praise for George Dixon, for he surely was the greatest little fighting machine of his time. As I said in these columns some weeks ago he always gave, the public a great run for his money, and became popular because of his honesty, and great fighting abilities. He and John L. were warm admirers of each other. In my opinion Dixon fought more great battles than any other pilot in the history of the sport. He did not himself after losing his title, and several defeats resulted—Cleveland Leader. Taylor's New Shampoo Dryer and Hair Straightener!

One goes to bed at night in the sweet assurance that it will be under the arms for the next two or three months at any rate, and awakes to learn from the headlines in the morning papers the waist line is positively at the knees. There is absolutely no use in prognosticating anything about it any longer. That the waist line occurred at the waist was an axiom accepted as questionably as that the earth revolves on its axis, but in these days of higher criticism it is likely to be anywhere. It blows where it listeth.—Mrs. Wilson Woodrow, in American Magazine. Decidedly Battled Of an Irishman, named Dogherty, a speaker of rare eloquence, the following amusing story is told: After one of his speeches he asked Canning what he thought of it. "The only fault I could find in it," Canning answered, "was that you called the speaker, 'Slr too often.' "My dear friend," said Dogherty, "if you knew the state I was in while speaking, you would not wonder if I had called him 'Ma'am!'"

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1909. A FEW REMARKS FROM PAPA PAINT DURABILITY. AN From Out of the Past BY CHARLES L. DOYLE (Copyright, by W. G. Chapman) As the train rolled steadily on its way, Horace Leith leaned upon the car window sill gazing out upon the New England landscape. There was nothing particularly attractive in the prospect, but it was many years since he had taken this route which led to his old village home of Chelsea, and he was endeavoring to recall certain features of the journey which had once been familiar. It was a tar cry from those old days to the present, when he had gained recognition as a successful business man in New York. had they been a mother's offer to burden he returned and begged to be a turn to converge with manifested sur her child, and the sleeping beauty of her dimped face in tiny shoes she wore. At last Leith cast his destination learned that she w Suddenly his musings were interrupted by a jerk of the car and the sharp call of the brakeman for another station. He turned around and watched the passengers who were entering and leaving the car. A slight woman with a baby in her arms, attired in black, took the seat directly in front of him and drew his attention for a moment. The train started again and he leaned back in his former position. Presently the baby climbed back on the seat, one hand a rubber doll and the other clutching the plush cushion. in her efforts to attract Leith's attention the doll fell to the floor and two red little lips issued an imperious command: "Man, get baby's doll," she lisped, and Leith, reaching down, obeyed the mandate. Whea he returned the doll the owner smiled rapturously. She was a very attractive child and Leith settled himself to watch her and listen to the prattle she poured out in broken sentences. Glancing at the mirror in front of him, he became aware that he could obtain a full view of the figure of the baby's mother therein. Her face, however, was partially hidden by a crepe veil. After awhile she appeared to grow restless and threw back the veil, disclosing two fushed cheeks and a pair of dark blue eyes drooping under long lashes. It was a Her Face Was Partially Hidden by a Veil. gentle and singularly beautiful face. Almost unconscionally he moved a little closer so as to observe her better. A chord in his memory seemed to have been touched. Surely he had seen her somewhere before. When and where could it have been? Not on the stage or in a picture, he felt certain. He thought long and earnest, but the riddle remained unsolved. Then by different channels his mind traveled back through the years, to the home of his boyhood, the little village, the river he used to swim in and his farewell to Chelsea. And at this point memory supplied the missing link. It was she—Lucy Mayburn—the same little girl he had loved so long ago. He mused on, thinking tenderly of the night he left for the great city, when he kissed her good-by and promised some day to claim her as his wife. He even recalled the tears that glistened on her face under the starlight of his last hours at home. A mist obscured his vision and something suspiciously like a soo lingered in his throat. Ten years had passed. How quickly one forgets, and sacred promises are broken, while youthful affection dies in the cold atmosphere of the struggle for fame and riches. A nameless longing oppressed him. How he wished he could talk to her. Perhaps through the baby he might manage it. The child responded to an invitation to come and hear his watch tick. No persuasion was needed to keep her on his knee, for she was easily amused. Presently the warm atmosphere, combined with the motion of the train, exercised a soothing effect upon her, the blue eyes closed languidly, and baby drifted into the shadowland of slumber. It was a new role for Leith to play, of nurse to a sleeping infant, but he performed it with a zest which would have astonished his many bachelor associates. Lord Beresford's Wit The Emerald isle is proud of Charlie Beresford and Charlie is proud of his native land and country, "Irishman may have their faults," he says, "but give me an Irishman—the best fellow that ever was. Could anybody tell more stories than the Irish?" One of the best stories he ever heard was about a fellow who was very fond of shooting. He said: "The first bird I ever shot was a squirrel, and the first time I hit I missed him altogether, and the next time I hit him I Look a stone and dropped him from the tree, and he fell into the water and was shot, and that was the first bird I ever shot." And Lord Charles is never tired of quoting the story of the Irish member of the house of commons who compared a certain whisky to a "torchlight process trickling down his throat."—Tit-Bits. Seen Becomes Hardened "But sometimes it's right to tell a white lie, isn't it?" "Perhaps. But I notice that when a man gets that idea he doesn't know what happens color-blind" — Cleveland Leader. had they been witnesses. To the mother's offer to relieve him of his burden he returned a nasty negative and begged to be allowed the pleasure of retaining his charge. She had turned to converse with the stranger who manifested such admiration of her child, and they discussed the sleeping beauty exhaustively, from her dimpled face to the dress and tiny shoes she wore. At last Leith casually remarked that his destination was Chelsea, and learned that she was bound for the same place. The conversation drifted into other channels and soon he heard how she had left her home in an eastern city three years before, when her husband died, returning with her baby to the home of her childhood. The village quiet oppressed her, however, she said, and she longed to take her baby and go far away from it. "I used to live in Chelsea long ago," remarked Leith, when she had finished her story. "So long ago, however," he continued, "that you would hardly be likely to remember me." She looked at him curiously, but shook her head. "There was one little girl there," he resumed, "that I was very fond of. Her name was Lucy Mayburn. Poor little Lucy! I shall never forget our farewell. And it was all my fault that we did not meet again. I was false to my vow, selfish and forgetful of all else in the cursed fight to make money in big New York. I wonder if you knew her?" The woman turned pale and then fushed nervously, controlling her agitation by an evident effort. "I knew her," she replied, softly, "but she is not there now—she—she went away." "So she has gone?" queried Leith; "married, I suppose. Who was the lucky fellow who won her?" He felt sure that she had recognized him now, but allowed matters to take their course and awaited her reply with a brave show of composure. "His name was Logan," she said, tremulously. "Lucy Mayburn was true to her promise or seven long years; her promise to you. But she was an orphan, practically alone in the world, and a day came when a good kind man offered her a refuge from her loneliness. She was frank with him and told him the truth about herself, that the best she could offer him was her respect and a broken heart. And he accepted the conditions. When her baby was born she realized that she had found peace, if not actual happiness. Then came sickness and other trials. She had many troubles—" The voice of the speaker faltered and broke, her eyes filled with tears, and turning away her face, she sobbed bitterly. She had betrayed herself, but she no longer cared. Leith laid the sleeping child gently beside him and bent over his old sweetheart. "Don't cry, Lucy," he whispered; "don't cry, dear. I was a brute to play with your feelings this way." She glanced up with startled eyes. "Then you knew me?" she fainted. "Yes, Lucy, I knew you," he said, softly. "And perhaps, dear, it was ordained by Providence that we should meet like this. Listen, little one. Can't you forget the weary years and let me fulfill the promise made so long ago? Let the past be a dream and awaken to the happiness of the present, Lucy. Whatever I may have done, no other woman has ever held the place in my heart occupied by your image. And it isn't too late now. Let me care for your child, and we will take up the broken thread of our lives where it snapped." The other passengers in the car were watching curiously the two actors in a little drama which they could not understand, but neither Leith nor the woman beside him were conscious of their surroundings, and the baby slumbered peacefully on. The long, warning whistle of the locomotive shrilled through the air, as the train neared Chessen. Lucy timidly slipped her small hand into Leith's big brown one, smiling through her tears, and he knew that he was forgiven. When the train came to a stop Leith swung the sleeping baby on to his broad shoulder, and with his long-lost love beside him stepped from the car into the purple twilight shadows that brooded over the quiet scenes of his boyhood home. Nero's Test. The deadly gauge of Nero's drunkenness was a fiercely wrought intaglio ring. When he could not see the figures on it he knew he was drunk. Suddenness. How soon we are forgotten when our money is gone. A Thing of the Past. Leonora O'Reilly, the vice-president of the Women's Trade Union league, was praising this organization's work in New York. "And it has a great future before it," she said. "I have no doubt that a century hence the members of the league will regard the woman of today as we now regard the farmer's wife of the early forties. "A Maine deacon of the early forties was talking to the punisher. He sniffed and whined: "Oh, yes, Job suffered some, I ain't denyin' that, parson. But Job never known what it was to have his team run off and kill his wife right in the harvest season, with bred girls wantin' $2 and $2.50 a week." What sweet enjoyment it is to be able to shed a little happiness around us! What an easy and agreeable task is that of trying to render others happy!—Baker. It takes a very great intellect to equal the pleasures of a very simple heart—Beatrice Mantle in "Gret." Nero's Test. Suddenness Quiet, But Emphatic, and Young Thing Immediately Took a New Life An Atchison Young Thing had a bead that ached, her honey boy having taken his affections elsewhere, and her father recently shut himself up with her to reason with her. "That Honey Boy averaged spending 50 cents a week on you," he said. "Here's a dollar a week to take its place. Every time he called he cleaned out the refrigerator, my mother will see to it that your brothers do this in future. He kept you up late nights. Your baby sister is cross, and hereafter you will let the baby do this for you. He took possession of the most comfortable rocker on the porch; when you look at that rocker in future it will not be empty, bringing the pang to your heart that your silly novels tell about; it will be occupied by the man who paid for it, and that's me. Your mother and I stayed by you through colic and teething, and we are going to get you through this if we have to take turns spanking you. Now take your eyes off the moon and look at the dust around you."—Atchison Globe HAD AWFUL WEEPING ECZEMA Face and Neck Were Raw—Terrible Itching, Inflammation and Soreness All Treatments Failed. Cuticura Proved a Great Success "Eczema began over the top of my ear. It cracked and then began to spread. I had three different doctors and tried several things, but they did me no good. At last one side of my face and my neck were raw. The water ran out of it so that I had to wear medicated cotton, and it was so inflamed and sore that I had to put a piece of cloth over my pillow to keep the water from it, and it would stain the cloth a sort of yellow. The eczematched so that it seemed as though I could tear my face all to pieces. Then I began to use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and it was not more than three months before it was all healed up.

Prevention of tuberculosis versus dividends is the proposition which some of our largest insurance companies are now trying to establish. The Metropolitan Life recently applied for permission to erect a sanatorium for its policy holders and employees afflicted with tuberculosis, but the application was refused on grounds of illegality by New York State Superintendent of Insurance Hotchkiss. The company is, however, conducting an active educational campaign by distributing 3,500,000 pamphlets among its policy holders. The Provident Savings Life Assurance society has also established a health bureau, where its policy holders may receive free medical advice. Several fraternal orders, notably the Modern Woodmen, Knights of Pythias, Royal League, Royal Arcanum and Workmen's Circle, have already established or are contemplating the erection of sanatoria for their tuberculous members. Marriage and Meanness Some years ago there lived in Atchison a young woman noted for her good works and gentleness. She was always helping the poor and was patient and kind and universally admired. She married a fairly good man and abused him within three months. She had been good and patient for years, but a husband was too much for her; she had never been cross to any one until she was cross to her husband. There is something about marriage that sifrs up hidden depths of meanness on both sides.—Atchison (Kar ) Globe. Weds Her Rich Stepfather Social circles in Pasadena, Cal., learned with amazement the other day that Miss Katherine Traphagen has become the bride of her stepfather, Cyrus M. Davis of Los Angeles.

WORKR8 The Lobster Eater That Would Wrisk an Office Man. Men who are actively engaged at hard work can sometimes eat food that would wreck a man who is more closely confined. This is illustrated in the following story: "I was for 12 years clerk in a store working actively and drank coffee all the time without much trouble until after I entered the telegraph service. "There I got very little exercise and drinking strong coffee, my nerves were unsteady and my stomach got weak and I was soon a very sick man. I quit meat and tobacco and in fact I stopped eating everything which I thought might affect me except coffee, but still my condition grew worse, and I was all but a wreck. "I finally quit coffee and commenced to use Postum a few years ago, and I am speaking the truth when I say, my condition commenced to improve immediately and today I am well and can eat anything I want without any bad effects, all due to shifting from coffee to Postum. "I told my wife today I believed I could digest a brick if I had a cup of postum to go with it. "We make it according to directions boiling it full 20 minutes and use good rich cream and it is certainly delicious." Look in pkgs, for a copy of the famous little book, "The Road to Wellville." "There's a Reason." Every time you move letter! A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human interest. PAINT DURABILITY. The first thought in painting should, of course, be durability and durability means simply pure paint properly applied. Pure paint is pure white lead and linseed oil (with or without tinting material). Some years ago the paint-buyer was likely to get adulterated or counterfeit white lead if he was not familiar with brands. To-day he may buy with perfect safety if he only makes sure that the Dutch Boy Palintr trademark is on the packages of white lead that he buys. This trademark was adopted by National Lead Company to distinguish the pure white lead made by them from the worthless adulterated and take goods. It is a guarantee as valuable to the house-owner as the education of a paint expert could be. UNDER A DARK MOON. Dolly—The motor boat is superior to the canoe even if we do have to carry a chaperon.

"Is the contract of dower properly drawn up, signed and witnessed?" asked the count of Castle-on-the-Burn. "Yes," sighed Gladys Golden. "There are no loopholes through which your wise lawyers of Philadelphia might creep?" "Not a loophole," said the fair Gladys. "And your father's holdings in Amalgamated Whalebone, American Cheese and Macaroni and Tin Soup-Plate as have not been affected by the recent depression?" "No, dearest," answered Miss Golden, firmly. "Then I love you," said the noble count; and two fond hearts beat as one.—Puck. A Candid Judge. A Dover lawyer tells a story in which figures Hon. H. L. Dawes, who, it seems, in his younger days was an indifferent speaker. Shortly after his admission to the bar he had a case which was tried before a North Adams justice of the peace, and Dawes was opposed by a lawyer whose eloquence attracted a large crowd. The justice was perspiring in the crowded room and evidently fast losing his temper. Finally he drew off his coat, and in the midst of the eloquent address, burst out: "Mr. Attorney, supposing that you take a seat and let Mr. Dawes speak, I want to thin out this crowd."—Lippincott's. Early to Bed. The man who makes it the habit of his life to go to bed at nine o'clock usually gets rich and is always reliable. Of course going to bed does not make him rich—I merely mean that such a man will in all probability be up early in the morning and do a big day's work, so his weary bones put him to bed early. Rogues do their work at night. Honest men work by day. It's all a matter of habit and good habits in America make any man rich. Wealth is a result of habit—John Jacob Aster. Important to Mothers.
