Nº1 Nº2 TWENTY-SEVEN Beautiful BY JULIA BOTTOMLEY. We cannot help acknowledging that much of the millinery we see is ill chosen on the part of those who wear it. The desire for something new (which means something novel) and the disposition to follow the lead of some one else rather than their own good judgment leads women into mistakes in millinery. There is a very simple rule to follow when one is trying on with a view to purchasing one of the more or less artistic models of the milliner's art. It is this: The weaker should look better with the hat on than without it. After finding a hat which, from all points of view, is becoming, the question of shape, at least, is decided upon. Details of materials and construction can then be settled. It is usually more satisfactory to both milliner and purchaser when a satisfactory hat can be found among those on display in the shop, to buy outright rather than to order a hat made. Nevertheless a good and clever milliner is sometimes able to improve upon a model and, very often, can make concessions in price by copying a pattern more or less closely for the customer. Every woman should economize last in her hat. It is the finishing touch in her costume, a sort of keynote in the harmony of her clothing. Excellent millinery, with excellent shoes and gloves will give an impression of elegance and redeem a plain gown from being commonplace. The three hats illustrated here may be said to picture some permanent values in millinery, for there are some (comparatively) permanent values in shapes and materials. The silk hat in Fig. 1 is a much modified Corday shape, built upon the lines of the frilled cap which was worn by women in the time of Charlotte Corday and is now identified by her name. This shape is comfortable and becoming and is varied in the making up to suit the age and style of the weirer. It is not excelled in beauty of outline. One rarely sees an ugly Corday model; even the stupide of makers can hardly undo altogether its good points. The hat shown is made of silk faced with velvet and trimmed with silk rosettes having velvet and bead centers. A silk and velvet rose, with foliage and loops of velvet ribbon, NEW DECORATION FOR DENS Wood Splints of Hardwood Set in Framework of Polished Wood is Popular. A new finish (for the walls of dens, men's bedrooms and other informal rooms, has lately made its appearance. It consists primarily of an interweaving of wood splints of hardwood set in a framework of polished wood, the finish of the splints being rather dull. It is applied to walls, either for their entire height or as a lower two-thirds below a landscape frieze or a tapestry or leather paper. It can be had in any stain desired, although it is shown in the shops only in a warm brown and green. A wall treated with it presents a series of narrow panels, or of alternating wide and narrow ones. It is an effective background for highly colored pottery, for hunting scenes in color and for copper and brass. The same weaving of splints is applied to a great variety of furniture, an agreeable change from the familiar reed and willow. A Monogram on Her Slippers. Late fad is the metal monogram attached in buckle effect to the front of pump on dancing slipper. Some of these monograms are quite large, but the daintiest styles cover no more space than a silver quarter would do, and the letters are intertwined or so arranged that a round or oval shape is given the monogram. Gilt, dull silver, gunmetal and bronze monograms are all used and usually the ornament is applied on a flat pump bow of ribbon. Veils Important This Year. Veils were never before so pretty as they are this year. Lace veils for draping are seen in both black and white, and net face veils are extremely fine and cobwebby but of large mesh. The new veils are much wider than those to which we have been accustomed, and are much more convenient for tying over the large hats of the season. Black Lierre lace has taken the place of white lace, for the winter veils. They promise to be even more unbecoming than those we wore in the summer. The most artistic mesh that a woman can wear is the wide-open round one that is made of coarse, silky threads. These are quite new and are rather expensive, but they outlast veils of fine net. THE GAZETTE finish the model. Even France has not given us a better design in headwear than she gave us in this. In Fig. 2 the broad-brimmed pictureseat hat shaped like a Leghorn or Neapolitan hat is made of felt. This is a shape perennially fashionable and is made of all materials. The good, full ostrich plumes with which it is trimmed are also always in fashion. A concession to the season's fancy is to be noted in the strands of beads, which look like jet but are really a composition, very light in weight and very handsome. The purchaser of such a hat owns millinery permanently fashionable and good, that is, until it wears out. Italy sends us, and has sent for centuries and will continue to send, fine hats of straw in this shape. Innumerable good copies of it are domestic manufactures. Spain launched the turban shown in Fig. 3. It is a jaunty, round hat, having much dash and style. Its trimming amounts to a decoration applied to the shape, and a standing cockade or something to take its place at the side. This little hat as pictured is made of heavy corded silk, trimmed with beads and imitation jacobchons. It is finished with a fancy feather aigrette and knotted scarf of velvet. Thus three nations have contributed models that one may choose from season to season, if they are found more becoming than any others, secure in the knowledge that they are hats that are beautiful—too beautiful to be discarded—and are always fashionable. Blouse of black silk gauze shirred in front and slashed open at the sides over an underblouse of white tulle, the edges united by straps of cord and little buttons. The waist is trimmed in an odd way with bands of embroidered satin and the plastron is of white tucked tulle and lace. The sleeves are somewhat in raglan style, shirred their entire length, and finished with cuffs of tucked white tulle and lace like the plastron. The pretty arrangement of the hair is the very latest style in Paris. A New Trimming. Indescence, weight and a flimy beauty are combined in a new trimming which simulates the color and markings of a snake. Gray net is used for the foundation, upon which gunmetal beads are woven in such a way that a mottled effect results. The lines of beads cross in irregular diagonal stripes and fairly scillate in the lights and shadows. It is wonderful when used with gray or green, and promises a safe fascination to all who gaze upon it. A scarf in which a broad band of this new snakeskin is incorporated would effectively entwine white shoulders or arms. It is cause for wonderness that a sinuous snake has given inspiration to the maker, and with an artistic eye the beauty has been retained, while all else has been eliminated. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. BROWNSVILLE WILL NOT DOWN SENATOR FORAKER AGAIN RE VIEWS THE STILL BURNING QUESTION—PRESENT CONDITIONS. Is Presented to Him—Him Mastery Responses—Maryland's Disfranchis- ment Efforts Commented Upon— Taft's "New Southern Policy" Hinted At. Cincinnati. O.—George L. Knox of Indianapolis, Ind., and a half dozen other Ohio and Kentucky Afro-Americans were here last week and present- ed to Senator Foraker a beautiful and very valuable speech, notably in described which was sent to him by ten loyal Afro-Americans who live in Alaska. The great senator's reply was as follows: He Knox, and Gentlemen—I could not be insensible to such an occasion as this if I would be and I would not try to be if I could. "I feel very much moved that these colored American citizens from far distant Alaska should have taken such note of that to which you refer, as that they should have been prompted to take action, as that with which you have presented me. I am proud to receive it—glad to have it. It has great intrinsic value, but it is not on that account that I prize it, although I prize it for that reason and well might, for it is certainly most beautiful—far excelling anything else." The reason, he proves, is from that which had been said to me of its nature. But I prize it because it comes to me from men of your race, as an assurance to me that I have their good will and their confidence and their respect, and that they want me to know that I have. Any man might be proud of the people of our country, as the United States are so many people who have never faltered in their devotion to American institutions or to that flag so many of them have followed up to victory and to death. (Applause). They have been an important part of our country from the very beginning. They have never faltered in their devotion to the flag. They have been identified with every war that we have ever had. The very first blood shed in the War for Independence was that of Crispus Attock, who fell in the streets of Boston, and so on down from then until now they have stood, the colored men of our country, in the defense of our institutions, in the development of our resources, in the upbuilding of this great, mighty empire of which we are today so justly proud. (Applause). "Any man might feel proud, therefore, I say, to know by such a token that I have done so much for the white men, in the defense of our institutions, in the development of our resources, in the upbuilding of this great, mighty empire of which we are today so justly proud. (Applause). "Any man might feel proud, therefore, I say, to know by such a token that I have done so much for the common glory of the American people. "I am proud, therefore, to have this on that account, but I am proud of it "I am proud of it because—of that to which it has immediate reference—to the efforts I made to secure justice and fair dealing for the 167 helpless colored soldiers, who were the victims of the ill-considered action of the then executive secretary of the United Nations, forged words with which I closed one of the speeches made in the senate in their behalf. I don't know whether I can exactly recall the sentence, but it was something like this, 'they did not ask for favors because they were Negroes, but only for justice because they were men; and then they asked for them? What justice were they asking for? We learn a time passes. "Within the last few days the newspapers have been filled with expressions of indignation and protest, and condemnation against what has been termed an official murder in the faraway kingdom of Spain. The whole world is aroused because Dr. Ferrer has put down the government. Why this indignation and condemnation? It isn't anything unusual that a man should lose his life as a forfeit to the law of the country in which he lives. That happens every day. Somewhere throughout the world the law is every day claiming justification. Why then such intense excitement in this case? The reason is plain. Whether rightfully or not the world has been led to believe and to understand that Dr. Ferrer had no trial; that there was a mere secret procedure, where he had no chance to be heard. It was reported in the newspaper that Dr. Ferrer had privilege of calling some witnesses to answer the charges that had been made against him in affidavit form he was arrested for his temerity and his impudence. What the world is resenting is not that he was put to death, not that he was put to death for some alleged crime, not that he was put to death wrongly, not that he was wrongly accused and convicted if he almost—no, not every day, but it is not unusual for that kind of thing to happen. If trials and convictions and executions are under the forms of law, and in accordance with the requirements of the law, and the men concerned are given an opportunity to be heard, and fairly heard, the world submits, even though it may be of the opinion that wrongly held the sake of law and order and government. What the world is resenting in this instance of official execution is the fact, as they believe, that the man had no chance to be heard. He Resented it. "That is all I was doing for the 167 Brownville soldiers. They had no chance to be heard. I was resenting it. They were charged, tried, convicted, sentenced, punished, disgraced and stripped of their property, good name and everything else, without any chance to show that they were innocent. That is why I could not sit still COLORED SHADOWS MIDNIGHT ASSASSINES THE SQUARE DEAL DOOR OF HOPE and acquiesce, and didn't, and wouldn't. (Applause), Dr. Ferrer's case is no whiter worse a crime, except only that in his case they went just one step farther and put him to death. If they had merely turned him out of some office, if they had simply stripped him of his honor, or even gave pristilege. If they had only assassinated his character, but left him living, the world would have little heeded, and it would all have been soon forgotten. "It was just so in the Brownsville case. If not stopping where they did, they had gone one step farther and had imposed a death sentence on somebody, then the crime involved of condemning a man without a hearing would have been made so patent that every man in America would have been convicted of murder was and as you were. (Applause)." "I saw it stated is some newspaper that the shots that took the life of Dr. Ferrer are reverberating around the world, and that every throne in Christendom is trembling on account of it. Some of them may fall. It is predicted that some of them will, and by and by they will fall. I think in the course of time all will fall, or pass away, but whether they fall or whether they stand, every monarch on his throne throughout the world has learned that in this state of civilization in which we live every man is entitled to a hearing before he is condemned. (Applause)." "I was not connected with the army, nor with the executive branch of the government, but I was in the senate, and we had certain powers which we could invoke and put in operation that would have a bearing upon the direction. I concluded that the matter ought to be at least investigated. Nobody ever claimed that more than 15 or 20, at the outside, had participated in the affray. All the others, at least a great majority of the others, were guiltless, according to the most hostile contentions, didn't like the poisonous contentions, wholesale for fear a guilty men might escape. We have always thought and taught that it is better that 99 guilty escape than one innocent man be punished. But here a few who were supposed to be guilty were being punished and along with them more than 100, as everybody knew, who were innocent. I thought they could at least separate the innocent from the guilty. "The inquiry at Washington. "We started into the investigation with that kind of an idea. I examined the testimony as it came along. The men were subpoenaed. They were brought into the committee room and examined, one after another, and I want to say to you gentlemen now for you will be interested in knowing it. I have been practicing law many years, examining witnesses and weighing evidence, and I never in all this time have been involved in vincing body of witnesses than those men proved to be. (Applause). They came to Washington. They were strangers in that great city. They had never been there. They had been out on the firing line on the frontier. in the Philippines and in Cuba and elsewhere, defending the flag, but they had never been at the seat of government. "They were taken into that great building, the capitol, and one after another ushered into the committee room, where sat 13 senators, constituting the committee on military affairs, where sat 13 sworn, and the stenographer took part down every question that was asked and every answer that was given. They were put through the ordeal of examination and cross-examination and all kinds of re-examination, by men trying to draw out of them some kind of evidence of guilt, either they were part of the question that selfs or somebody else connected with the battalion, as to whose guilt they could give some evidence or some clew. Those poor men had no help of any kind, except as I in my weak way, could give them by asking questions and so directing the ex-but that was all the help they needed. I never was so impressed with the majesty and the power and the overwhelming and convincing force of truth. "These poor, weak, ignorant, helpless men were able to prevail and did government, wielded and directed by a man who had an almost denonial determination to destroy them, to the end that his wicked outrage upon them and their rights might appear to have been justified. But he could not succeed. With a stroke of his pen he wielded and directed the powers of government he could not overcome the simple truth they told. (Aplause). "I soon became convinced that not a man in that battalion had anything more to do with that shooting than you gentlemen here had. I have said it in the senate. I have said it in public speech, because I felt it my duty to say it. I mean my duty to toward you. It is now three years and two months since that shooting occurred. According to the theory of Mr. Roosevelt, there were 167 men connected with the case. To justify himself against the charge that he was punishing innocent men his contention was that those who did not participate in the shooting knew all about it; that they were accessories and that they had inaugurated a conspiracy of silence, so that none of them would be involved in the shooting. Three years and two months have passed, and the conspiracy of silence is still triumphant! (Aplause). What an absurdity! There never was such a conspiracy and never will or can be. Never in all the history of man have 167 men, or 100 men, or 67 men, or 20 men had such a secret of crime and kept it over three years, even if let alone. Certainly not with an army of vigilant detectives and sleuths after them to find some evidence of the shooting, but would lead to the discovery of the truth, going to the extent, to the lasting disgrace of the officials responsible for it, of trying to intoxicate them and trying to get out of them when intoxicated some kind of an incriminating remark. To the credit of these men it should be known that never could they get more than three or four of them intacted. (Applause). Mr. Roosevelt soon learned that these deserpoes, as he called them, were good, honest, law-abiding men, who didn't drink in the army and who couldn't be induced to drink by his hired detectives. (Applause). "Now, a word to you as representatives of the Negro race. I have no doubt you have had a great many disappointments. We all have them, but in the course of time, it may seem slow, it may seem long, and it is slow and it is long, there will come out a recognition of the rights of man—your rights, my rights, everybody's rights, to stand on the same political plane with everybody else, under the constitution and the laws of our country. And when that time comes you can look back through all your tribulation and feel that in the great achievements you have wrought there is an abundant reward for at the trials you have undertaken. Therefore, do be discouraged. Have spirit and go forward with hope and confidence.

It's not the steam roller, of which you spoke, to which I have been used for a public service. You have seen fit to kindly altitude to that. I have no desire to ever again hold public office, but I have always had a desire to do my full duty as I understood it, without regard to consequences. (Applause). I could not fall in this respect and be able to do it. I have now. Out of public life I am free from public responsibilities and cares. In that I have a great compensation. I would have been glad to have continued in the public service just at the time when I went out of it, not because I wanted the office. I have a better one to use, and I am not comfortable situated, and there are many things connected with it more agreeable than anything I ever found at Washington. "But that is all gone by.

Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature, 1909 to 1993 1906 to 1991 1900 to 1992 Cleveland, O., November 6, 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. Over ten thousand Democrats who voted for Mayor Tom two years ago when he defeated Burton, did not vote for him on Tuesday. The election results show this plainly. That accounts for his defeat, and Baehr's election. --- Gov. Harmon should put a stop to that segregation of Afro-American girls at the O. S. & S. O. Home, Xenia. It is drawing the color-line in a state institution, and an insult to and an outrage upon the race, that will be resented at the proper time, unless discontinued at once. Local Afro-American political traitors who looked for jobs as a result of President Taft's election last fall, and have never received them, should be a trifle less joyous over Baeh's election Tuesday, in the light of our experience with him as county recorder for seven years. Candidate for Justice of the Peace Walter L. Brown certainly did remarkably well, being on the Democratic ticket. He owes much to our people, Republicans, for his splendid showing. The Democratic Jews did the same thing for their candidate for justice of the peace on the Republican ticket. O. we are learning. Tom Fleming has been elected a member-at-large of the city council. The Gazette had nothing to say in recent weeks relative to his candidacy because he is an Afro-American, and had been nominated at the primaries. We opposed his nomination because we felt that he was not the man for such a place, and still think so. But we hope his conduct and course in that body will prove our estimate of him incorrect. This "for the good and welfare of the race" particularly. In common with others, we shall watch him. For the benefit of the Louisville (Ky.) American Baptist, we wish to say "as a matter of fact" that Dr. Booker T. Washington was "denied a right by the Buchtel hotel in Akron, O." His agent was at the hotel and applied for entertainment for him. Dr. Washington can institute suit for damages under our Ohio Civil Rights' law and ought to do so. Stop trying to make excuses for him! Let him do it himself. A fine (?) "national leader" of a race like ours, such a man would make. Nearly one-third of the four thousand Afro-American voters in this city were not registered this fall. Less than one-third of those who did register, voted for Herman C. Baehr, the Republican candidate for mayor. This is a warning to Messrs. Meyers, Pristien, Hirstius, the county commissioners and other Republican county officials who have failed to give our people the recognition they are entitled to. Prof. Kelly Miller of Howard university, Washington, D. C., president of the Alumni association of that well known institution of learning, has issued a call to its members, where they are in sufficient numbers in the different cities of the country, to hold memorial meetings in honor of Gen. O. O. Howard, "founder and patron saint of Howard university." This is an excellent suggestion for our people generally, to accept and act on, because the general was one of the race's oldest and very best friends. Prof. Miller also suggests to Howard's alumni that they take advantage of this opportunity to stimulate interest in the proposed gymnasium for Howard's thirteen hundred students. MOST CREDITABLE INDEED! MOST CREDITABLE INDEED! a fact that the Irish Democrats on the west side of the city particularly, not only threatened to defeat Walter L. Brown, a candidate for justice of the peace on their ticket, because he is an Afro-American, but did "cut" him on election day to the "tune" of more than two thousand votes. Before election day they tried to force him off the ticket for the same reason, going so far as to appeal, singly and in delegations, to Mayor L. John Johnson who had so materially assisted Walter to get on the ticket; and to send Martin Thumm, chairman of the local Democratic committee, to him with the request that he resign from the ticket "because the Irish on the west side would not support him but would fight his election." Martin pleaded long and earnestly, but in vain. Walter refused to do as desired, and in so doing had the support of Mayor Tom. Then he came to The Gazette for the help he, as a member of the race, had a right to expect under the circumstances, and we did all in our power to assist him. For this we have no apology to make, nor for any other effort we made during the campaign just closed. All was based upon equally as good reasons from a race viewpoint, and fully explained in these columns during the progress of both primary and election campaigns. But what please us beyond measure is the GRAND showing our people made on Tuesday last in their support of Mr. Brown in spite of the fact that he was on the Democratic THE GAZETTE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 6. 1909. ticket! The election returns show that they gave him* votes enough to overcome the "cutting" of the more than two thousand prejudiced Democrats, and to put him in the lead of the two other men on his ticket, candidates for the same position. He received a total of 34,337 votes to their 34,315 (Davio) and 34,162 (Gannon) totals. Here is a practical demonstration of race loyalty that is most encouraging indeed, and The Gazette is justly proud of the same and congratulates every Afro-American who showed his manhood, self and race respect by casting a vote for Mr. Brown. There is no denying the fact that the Ohio Afro-American is coming and coming fast. The vote they cast against Candidate Taft last fall, the vote Cleveland Afro-Americans cast against Mayoralty Candidate Burton two years ago because he was seeking to defeat our great and good friend Senator Foraker, and the large vote cast against Mayor-elect Baehr on Tuesday because he broke his promise to give the race representation in his office (the county recorder's), are to their everlasting credit and honor. They have shown true manhood, self and race respect, and loyalty of the highest and best kind, in each instance, and are bound to increase respect for us as a voting power, upon the part of both parties and all intelligent persons. On with the good work and it will not be long until party leaders and office-holders will willingly give us the recognition and treatment individually and collectively, our voting strength entitles us to, and so long withheld.

Oct. 20. 1909. Editor Gazzette—Dear Sir: I am to deliver an address before the State Conference of Charities, November 5th to 8th, on the subject, "Disposition of Colored Dependent Children." I am asking a number of prominent colored people for an expression on this subject to read the letters before the conference. Will you kindly give me your views on the subject? Would you favor the establishment of a state institution for dependent colored children? Would you favor separating the races in institutions having for their instructors teachers of their own race? Do you think that the dependent colored children are now properly provided for? Is not, what remedy would you suggest? I will appreciate any suggestion you may have to offer on this subject, and I hope that this discussion will be profitable. Yours very truly. R. A. LONGMAN. Cleveland, O. Oct. 20. 1909. Mr. Rufus A. Longman. No. 312 West Ninth Street. Cincinnati, O. U. Dear Sir, our letter just received, Nice State state institution for Irish, German Jews, Afro-Americans or other class of Ohio's citizens, should be established or tolerated for a moment, regardless of teachers, employees or others it will give employment to. THE PRINCIPILE is wrong, pernicious and even malicious. For years Cleveland's public schools for children of ALL classes (races) of citizens, have all teachers (of African) and no two in the same building and rarely ever does one of them have an Afro-American pupil in her room (both high and graded schools) and they teach in buildings having from 15 to 30 teachers, located from the heart of the city to its limits, and are all colors from white to black. All teachers, no two in the same kind. This has reference to both teachers and pupils. I have for nearly 30 years opposed in my paper any and all such "separation" because it encourages race prejudice even in children of tender years, and for other equally good reasons. MIX BOTH THE TEACHERS AND PUPILS AND EFFECTIVE BEBES RESULTS. It depends "children are not now properly provided for, open all institutions for that purpose to them and place them on a par along that line with all other children. It may make your projected effort unnecessary. If so, so much the better. Color-line should not be drawn in this state any more than in other states. All other dependent children of Ohio are similarly placed in this respect, let us get busy and do the proper thing for all without reference to class or color. This is the remedy for such a condition. If it does not exist, then my suggestion in the previous sentence. Segregation invariably doubles the expense as a result of unnecessary classes. This ciple is not only wrong here in Ohio but most decidedly unnecessary and degrading. Trusting I have answered your questions as best the time at my disposal will permit, and satisfactorily to you, and with the best and broadest view of the matter my experience, and "long residence in an Afro-American family and environment." I am, I respects accordingly. HARRY C. SMITH BROWNSVILLE WILL NOT DOWN (Continued from first page.) and I am sorry to say that I feel compelled to have a great deal more acute concern for them just now. (Applause.) "I am not concerned about social equality. We don't have that among white people. There are lots of white people who wouldn't let me associate with them, if I wanted to, and there are many I don't want to associate with. I think that is the way it is with colored people. At any rate, you cannot by law make social equality. That's a thing that regulated it automatically. But also, have believed, in political equality as to all political rights under the constitution and before the law. (Applause.) "I thought when the war was over we had abolished slavery; and I thought when we got through with reconstruction that the Negro had been enfranchised, and that, he had been placed upon the same political plane with the white man, and I didn't suppose the time would ever come when would be questioned except by irresponsible violators of the law. That is liable to happen anywhere, at any time, in any country or state, but we have lived to see the time, and I am not saying it in any spirit of unkindness, when in every southern state, almost without exception, the Negro is principally enfranchised, his right is practically taken away him, and just now another great political battle that deeply concerns you is being fought, far greater in point of principle than is the contest now going on in the city of New York. I refer to the contest now in progress question is whether or not the right of suffrage shall be taken away from the Negro. I do not know whether they will succeed or not. I do not believe they will. I hope they will not. I think, from what has been told me, that there are a great many Democrats to the ballot-box—should prevail. I think those Democrats are likely to vote with the Republicans. So I am hoping you will have a victory, and that we will have a victory, and that the whole country has a history, and that we will have a history. "Blessed be the name of Abraham Lincoln!" His work shall not be undone." (Anaplause.) **Peary's Telegram.** New York City—Commander Peary, unable to attend the recent banquet given Matthew Henson here by our people, sent the following telegram: "I congratulate you and your race upon Matthew Henson. He has driven home to the world your great adaptability and the fibre of which you are made. He has added to the moral stature of every intelligent man among you. "His is the hard earned reward of tried loyalty, persistence and endurance. He should be an everlasting example to your young men that these qualities will win whatever object they are directed at. "He deserves every attention you can show him. I regret that it is impossible for me to be present at your dinner. My compliments to your assembled guests." Peary's telegram was received with cheers. Booker's "Chickens." Some weeks ago Dr. Booker T. Washington was refused accommodations at a hotel in Akron, O. The Cleveland and Gazette points out the fact that this is another case of "chickens coming home to roost." With reference to the rights of the race Mr. Washington's policy has been one of "surrender," surrender every right and make use of the opportunities now at hand. The people who are unknown to his vocabulary. Non-resistance has been the watchword. Now that he has been denied a right in a state where such right is recognized, the all important question with many, is what is he going to do about it? Will he contest in the courts and thus alienate the affections of some of his old-time admirers, or will he be allowed to remain and thus pave the way for its repetition places where such has been unknown? —The Dallas (Tex.)

A well known sport writer (white) published in a local daily paper Tuesday the following: "Well, I'm glad that I'm not Jim Jeffries. Also pleased that none of my friends are in Jeff's boots. It's a fate that one would only wish his direst enemy, for this Jack Johnson joins up like a good fighting team. He is a present champion's ability as a pugilist, just go to the Star theatre this week and size up the dark-complexioned gentleman in the pictures of his fight with Stanley Ketchel, middleweight champion—the young man who was not satisfied with one pugilistic crown, but wanted another. The pictures are as near perfect as it is possible to see what a gigantic task one realizes what a gigantic task Jeffries has on his hands to dispose of this fellow Johnson—if they ever meet in the ring. It may be unfair to Jeff to make any comparisons between him and the Negro as a result of Jack's fight with Ketchel, but Stanley is the king pin of the middleweight class and noted for his middleweight class and a slugger. Ketchel is a skilled boxer, mighty shifty on his feet and has everything on his feet that goes to make up his good fight with Stanley. He one, two and even three better in every department of the game. Ketchel looks like a mole hinned up with the mountainous Johnson. Of course, every one expects to see the smaller Ketchel dance all around the larger man, but Jack proves himself more clever, more graceful and faster than his opponent. The fight reminds one of a cat toying with a mouse, with the finishing apples in his paws that goes to make up his good fight with Stanley. He comes tired of playing. Ketchel lands probably three or four good blows during the 12 rounds, his best punch coming in the final round. Johnson, on the other hand, has Stanley on the defensive most of the time. He rails blow after blow on Ketchel. One is forced to admire Stanley, for he is game to the core and despite the punishment administered by the big felon, he is still a backyard bocker for After Ketchel his stinging punch in the twelfth which sends Johnson to his haunches he waits until the Negro gets to his feet and then rushes forward to make the most of his apparent advantage. He forgets to guard himself. The cunning Johnson leaps to his feet. "Biff! Biff!" He lands a left and right. Ketchel goes to the floor, a defended man. The force of the final punch on teeth are broken and after he is counted out the molars are found imbedded in the conqueror's glove. Jack Johnson is a fighter—believe me—and for that reason don't envy Jim Jeffries his chance at a slice of a $50,000, $60,000 or even a $75,000 purse. Jeff will earn the money.

THE WOMEN'S HOME When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities, all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on bald places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing was possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly giving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being cultivated and largely by persons whose own hair, we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good") or referred to "PORO." We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind). See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M POPE.

We Grew Our Hair Now Let Us Grow Yours With The Best Food for Workers. The best food for those who work with hand or brain is never high priced. The best example of this is found in Quaker Oats. It stands at the top among foods that supply nourishment and vigor, without taxing the digestion, and yet it is the least expensive food one can eat. This great food value and low cost make it an ideal food for families who want to get the greatest good from what they eat. Laborers, factory or farm hands, fed plentifully in Quaker Oats will work better and with less fatigue than if fed on almost any other kind of food. All of these facts were proved and very interesting information about human foods were gathered by Professor Fisher of Yale University in 1908. In addition to the regular pack age Quaker Oats is packed in large sized family packages either with or without china dishes. WHAT DIFFERENCE? "Half a pound of tea, please?" "Green or black?"

No End of Cheap and Savory Meats That May Be Invitingly Prepared Without Much Time or Labor. Meat is the heaviest bill in table economics, especially in these days of high prices. It can be lessened by careful management and this may be so done as to give no cause for com- plaint or criticism. Many cheap cuts of meat, properly cooked, are as nutritious and palatable, yes, and just as presentable, as if they cost three times as much. Appetizing dishes can be made from both lamb and beef flank, the cheapest grades of these meats marketed. Buy an entire flank and do not allow it to be trimmed. The trimmings are usually excellent for stew meat. And, by the way, always ask for the trimmings with all meats. The trimmings from high-priced chops, or most any kind of meat, keeps the soup pot supplied, and you have paid for them, for the meat is always weighed before it is trimmed. To return to the flank. Lay it on a flat surface, if a beef piece, and cut off a long, narrow strip, enough for the next meal, and cover it with a dressing of dry bread crumbs, seasoned to taste, and a bit of minced onions. Moisten slightly with hot water. Roll and tie tightly with a clean cord. Place in a baking pan with two cups of water. Cover and bake slowly until very tender. Then season with salt and pepper, remove cover, if you have used a covered baker, and brown over the top. Make a gravy of the drippings. A roast coating four times as much is no more savory or nourishing. Use the thin part for steak. In many places in the west flank steak is considered a tidbit. Pull off the skin on either side, criss-cross the meat with a sharp knife and you have steak fit for a king at not over eight cents a pound. If the flank was a large one there will be a piece left to use either as corned beef or as a pot roast. If the former, simply rub salt over the meat and let it stand 24 hours. Rinse slightly and cook. For a pot roast, grease a pot half-way up the sides and over the bottom with lard. Roll and cord the meat and put it in the heated kettle. Turn it over and over, until every part is well browned. When this is done add two cups boiling water and simmer slowly until tender, adding more water as needed, and seasoning with salt just before it is done. If used hot, make a gravy from drippings. If used cold, let it cool in the liquor. Slice thin. It is nice for lunches. Use the liquor for soups and gravies. Croquettes can be made of trimmings or any pieces left over by chopping fine, adding minced potato and onion, moistening with gravy and shaping into cakes. For mincemeat flank is excellent, as it also is for hash. Cream Salad Dressing. Here is a good recipe that can be made to use the yolks of eggs, when the whites have beeh put into an angel cake or frosting. To make the custard, allow two yolks to each cup of milk and boil, taking from the fire as soon as thickened. For the other part of the dressing, two tablespoonfuls each flour and butter, one-half teaspoonful mustard, a teaspoonful white sugar, a saltspoonful salt and a half cup vinegar, not too sour, are required. Mix the dry seasonings together, blend the butter and flour over the fire until smooth, then stir in the vinegar and seasonings until thoroughly mixed, and boil. Stir this mixture into the custard, let it boil up just once, and take immediately from the fire. Braised Lamb's Liver Trim, wash and dry a lamb's liver. Lard it well with fat salt pork and dredge with salt and pepper. In a deep pan put layers of thinly sliced carrots and onions (two good-sized ones of each), a stalk of parsley, one of celery and a clove. On this lay the prepared liver, pour into the pan one cupful of boiling water or stock, cover closely and place in a moderate oven for 2½ hours. Thicken the gravy and serve with it, serving the vegetables in a separate dish. English Salad Pickle. Peel and slice six good sized cucumbers and three onions. Cover with half a cup of salt and let stand, well pressed down, over night. In the morning throw away the liquor, add two teaspoons of celery seed, half an ounce of mustard seed, five ounces of salad oil and a pint of cold cider vinegar. This makes a delicious pickle ready to eat in 48 hours, though the longer it is kept in air tight jars the better it becomes. Pineapple Pie. Line a ple plate with pastry. Mix lightly together the well-beaten yolks of four eggs, one cupful of granulated sugar, pineapple and the stiffly-beaten whites of two eggs. Bake till ready in a moderate oven. Cover with a meringue made with the whites of three eggs stiffly beaten and three tablespoonfuls of sugar added. Serve hot or cold. Steamed Chocolate Budd Steamed Chocolate Pudding. Take three heaping teaspoonfuls of cocoa, yolks of three eggs. Beat them very light; add half a cupful of sugar and beat together with three tablespoonfuls of sweet milk. Add one cupful of flour and beat until smooth. Add beaten whites last, and one large teaspoonful of baking powder. Steam two hours. Use foaming sauce. Hominy Muffins. Two cups of boiled hominy, beat smooth and stir in three cups of sour milk, half a cup of melted butter, two teaspoonfuls of salt, two tablespoonfuls of sugar, three eggs well beaten, a tablespoonful of soda dissolved in hot water and two cups of flour. Bake quickly in a hot oven. Practical Fashions BOYS' RUSSIAN SUIT.

A subscription has been opened in Switzerland for the purpose of printing and publishing the mathematical "remains" of Euler, the savant, whose name is familiar in connection with various recondite mathematical formulae. It is fitting that some such tribute should be paid by his native country, for the University of Basle was foolish enough to reject him as a professor, and he had to go first to Russia and afterward to Prussia, in order to find scope for his abilities. In the former country he was noted for his taciturnity, and was asked the reason for it. He replied that, in Russia a man could only open his mouth at the risk of being hanged by the neck. His posthumous papers are so numerous that it is computed that the production of them will cost £12,000.

A. Long-Panter. Mary, aged 14, was found one day by an older sister sobbing and crying. "What is the matter?" she asked, with great concern. "Three boys have asked me to go to the dance to-night," was the unexpected reply. "Well, my dear child, certainly that is not such a terrible misfortune." "Yes; but I told the first one I would go with him, and the last one was a long-naner!" -Harper's. Snake Story. "Before he went fishin,'" said the town story teller, "he swallowed 'bout a pint an' a half of snakebite remedy, an' of course you know what that is.

Last thing it tried to do wuz to swail its tail, an' it got itself in the form of a hoop an' I'm a liar of the children didn't roll it around all day!" THE DIFFERENCE Coffee Usually Means Sickness, But Postum Always Means Health. Those who have never tried the experiment of leaving off coffee and drinking Postum in its place and in this way regaining health and happiness can learn much from the experience of others who have made the trial. One who knows says: "I drank coffee for breakfast every morning until I had terrible attacks of indigestion producing days of discomfort and nights of sleeplessness. I tried to give up the use of coffee entirely, but found it hard to go from hot coffee to a glass of water. Then I tried Postum. "It was good and the effect was so pleasant that I soon learned to love it and have used it for several years. I improved immediately after I left off coffee and took on Postum and am now entirely cured of my indigestion and other troubles all of which were due to coffee. I am now well and contented and all because I changed from coffee to Postum. "Postum is much easier to make right every time than coffee, for it is so even and always reliable. We never use coffee now in our family. We use Postum, and are always well." "There's a reason" and it is proved by trial. Look in pigs for a copy of the famous little book, "The Road to Wellville."

Awful, Crusted, Weeping Eczema on Little Sufferer—A Score of Treatments Prove Dismal Failures. Cure Achieved by Cuticura. "My little boy had an awful rash all over his body and the doctor said it was eczema. It was terrible, and used to water awfully. Any place the water went it would form another sore and it would become crusted. A score or more physicians failed utterly and dismally in their efforts to remove the trouble. Then I was told to use the Cuticura Remedies.
