TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR. NO. 16. Pretty Tea Gowns M. 107 The gown on the left is a charming model of white Ninon and a quantity of white lace. The gown is made up over a closely fitted slip of pale pink satin. A large rose trims the bodice at the front, and there are touches of pale rose velvet ribbon here and there. The gown on the right is a pale green satin, with lace overdress. IN FASHION'S LATEST WHIM ALL HAVE THREAD OF BLACK UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Pretty T The gown on the left is a charm of white lace. The gown is made up satin. A large rose trims the bodice, pale rose velvet ribbon here and the green satin, with lace overdress. IN FASHION'S LATEST WHIM Handsome Gown That Would Make Up Handsomely in a Dove Gray Cashmere. Dove gray cashmere would make up charmingly in this style; a panel is made from shoulders to hem in front, and at the back it is continued as far as the yoke, which is arranged at the top of sides of skirt; the lower part of skirt is plaited and set to yoke, the plats being stitched down about six inches. Russia braid put on in a A wavy pattern forms the trimming; the waist-band of folded chiffon velvet is taken under the edges of front panel, holes being cut and button-holed for it to pass through; piece lace forms the yoke, which is outlined by Russia braid; the sleeve is set to a deep cuff. Hat of gray straw edged with black and trimmed with wings. Materials required: Eight yards cashmere 48 inches wide, 1½ dozen yards braid, 1½ dozen buttons, half yard piece braid. Overcast Together When heavy Russian crash, such as is now used for portieres, is too narrow in width, don't be dissuaded from the use of this beautiful colorless material, but just overcast its width together after the manner of the Bagdad portiere. You will find no hangings more effective for studio and library use than those soft-toned crash, and the heavy linen overcasting down each seam will render them even more attractive. To do the overcasting use the coarsest of carpet thread or a flax that is sold in skeins. THE GAZETTE Season's Materials Marked with This Peculiar and Extremely Effective Touch. One of the odd and effective touches of the season materials is to weave a heavy thread of black through everything. This idea is evolved from homespun, the imported variety that has that flickering black or gray thread playing hide and seek over the surface. The new dull red basket cloth, which is the color of grapes, and is to be quite fashionable, has this thread of black looping in and out of the weave. Smart top coats for autumn wear outside of the city are of white cloth, with a black thread through it. A suit or coat of this rough cloth with a black thread is naturally trimmed in black. It looks as though we were coming in for a big season of black—hats, gowns, wraps and accessories. One hears more of the all black gown in the dressmaking houses than for years past. It is not now advised for economy's sake, but for fashion. All materials contribute to it. It is to be worn for the street, for the house, and quite a good bit for the evening. There is no hint of color being combined with it, but always a touch of white. Smart house gowns of black have yoke and sleeves of pin-tucked white trille and then touches of facetted let. The top coat of black in fur moire or cloth is highly fashionable and the epidemic of black hats is in full sway. Conservative women feel they are getting their feet on firm ground again when black and white is in first style. They have been pretty much buffeted by sartorial breakers recently and they are quite relieved to be safe again. It is fitted as carefully as a princess frock. It is warranted not to "bunch." The latest is a silk skirt lined with flannel. This gives warmth, and keeps the flannel from riding up when rubbed against an outer skirt. The plain flannel skirt is often made with a carefully fitted hip yoke. Again it is completely circular, fitted over the hips and with fulness around the knees. The most usual finish around the bottom is scallops, heavily padded and worked in buttonhole stitch, or crocheted lace. The New Hat Pins The arts and crafts are steadily making their way into all channels of decoration. All this work goes especially well with the Byzantine and Moyen age, through which we are passing. Their newest contribution to feminine apparel is the hat pin. These are quite popular. They are made with squares or circles, of a greenish bronze, decorated with quaint symbols. Canadian Work. Flax cloth is a curious homepun made in Canada by the women of the country districts. Their city cousins have converted it into attractive fancy pieces for household decoration.

AN EXPERT PICKS "JACK" JOHNSON AN EXPERT PICKS "JACK" JOHNSON TO WIN IN THE FORTHCOMING BATTLE BETWEEN HIM AND "JIM" JEFFRIES. TELLS HOW IT WILL BE DONE! Johnson Has the Health, Youth, Experience and Ability—Jefries Had These—What Burns, Ketchel and Other White Fighters Got! By W. R. C. Latson, M. D. Editor Health Culture Magazine. New York City.—As a student having no race feeling—as one who is interested in him, he is in the perfect physical development of men—I prophesy Johnson. In the ring you never can tell. Once there was a fellow by the name of Monroe—but everybody knows that story. I am not a prophet, or the son of a prophet. But I have watched both men in action—watched them as a student of medicine. Which man boasts the other one does not mind to meet in the least; how he does it is the question. Johnson Never Tells. Jeffries is invincible if he knows exactly when and where the other fellow is going to hit him. But-Johnson never tells. He only amuses or rather grins and slides off. He may even pretend to fall down. I don't think for a moment that the elusive Afro-American will go for his opponent as that prince of pugilists, John L. Sullivan, used to go at his man. I anticipate rather seeing Johnson as I have seen him—never there. "Every time you hit him you miss him," said an Irishman. And that is Johnson. Freedom of Youth. Johnson has the case and the freedom of youth and the reserve which marks the master of modern ring tactics. To him the "prize fight," as it was once called, is a very simple game. To him it will be play. To the burly boiler builder it will be a serious matter. Pugilism seems to the outsider a physical encounter—an affair which can be more horribly in earnest. As a matter of fact it is nothing of the kind. It is a trial of strength in which the man who is strongest physically, spiritually, will in time tie another man until he gasps—until he breathes deeply, and then breathing is the other fellow's chance. A gasp means that the muscles about the abdomen—the most powerful in the body—are for the moment relaxed. For that moment of relaxation, for that gasp, the master of ring tactics is waiting. Then he darts in and it takes more than ten seconds to find out whether or not the other man is alive. That is my opinion about this bout. Johnson will play his man out and then, having been running and falling down about seventeen times, Johnson is in a tender place. Now my feeling is that Johnson will wait until Jeffries gets tired enough to gasp. What Burns Got. That is what Johnson did to poor Burns. That is what he did to that splendid fighter, Ketchell; and that, I guess, is what he will do to the "Invincible" Jeffries is a physical wonder. But Johnson also is a wonder. It is subtlety against strength—the getaway against the punch, and a boy against a man who used to be a boy. These two men are wonderful specimens of humanity. Jeffries is remarkable for a man who has had one career and now starts another. But, as I have said, he was once a boy, and is now a man. Johnson is a splendidly hurt. And his heart is right—he is buoyant and glad that he is alive. Great is health. Great is youth. Great is the combination of health and youth. Maryland voters have for a second time in recent years defeated a disfranchisement amendment to that state's constitution. In a speech at Jackson, Miss., last week, President Taft praised Jeff Davis, the rebel leader in the "civil war." This ought to cause Gen. Garrant to turn over what various loan companies and individuals in the loan business do to the poorest of our people as well as of other classes is something fierce. Stay away from the "loan-sharks." Winter is upon us and during the long evenings to come, for several months, you will need "The Gazette for a fireside company and in your suburbs. Do not delay. Berlin, Germany, has a colored chauffeur who speaks English, German, French and Spanish. Paris, France, has a colored woman chauffeur who is attracting even more attention. The United States supreme court has denied the motion of those Chattanooga, Tenn., lynchers, Sheriff Shipp and others, for a rehearing of their cases. Bert K. Sweet, an Afro-American of Norwood, R.

THE RESUSCITATION OF THE REPUBLIC. The stand taken by The Gazette against the segregation of inmates of the Ohio (State) Soldiers and Sailors' Orphans' Home at Xenia (and everywhere throughout the north), on account of their color, is the sane position, the only one that can be productive of good for all parties concerned. All the sophistry in the world, all the sweet talk about the blessings in disguise claimed for conspirators, Comprisoners of America paid in 1787—resisting in 1860 to 1865, in the most bloody war of the century), will not avail against the FACTS of history taught often and in the experience of many nations, but nowhere more pregnantly, horribly than in Russia's, that segregation works to the moral and mental detriment, of both the segregating party and the segregated one. Let me refer those, who wish to learn about the destructive force of prejudice to Dr. Gans' book, Russia, the land of the Jewish people, a Jewish segregation and its horrible sequences. The book is recent (1903), and the libraries all contain it. JACOB EGBERTH. BISHOP DERRICK MARRIED AGAIN Rt. Rev. W. B. Derrick, D. D., bishop of this, the Third Episcopal district of the A. M. E. Church, who lives at Flushing, L. I. N. Y., was married to Mrs. Clara E. Jones of Chicago, formerly of Ashland, O., in the Episcopal residence, No. 3340 Rhodes avenue, Chicago, on the 3d at 4 p. m. Mrs. Derrick is a sister of Rev. John M. Henderson, now stationed at Springfield, O., but formerly pastor of A. M. E. churches in New York City, Columbus, Erie, and other cities. She has two children, one to graduate from a Chicago high school. The bishop's first wife died about two years ago. The celebrants at the wedding were: Bishop Cornellus T. Shaffer and associate Rev. Moses H. Jackson, of the Church the bride and groom, both for many years friends of the editor of The Gazette, have our very best wishes. Liberia Needs Our Help The commission sent by congress to Liberia in answer to an appeal from that country to save it from assimilation by France and Great Britain has reported, recommending the help asked for. Some interesting facts and figures are given. There are 40,000 Liberians, that is, descentes of civilized Negroes, and 150,000 natives. The former live in towns along the coast and rivers that are much more remote. Norete town is one of southern states. They occupy themselves mainly with trading with the natives in natural products which they export. They have schools, but no railroads; their towns are fairly well governed and fairly clean. The government is republic, in fact as well as name. The countryside is encouraged on her territory and also money and business management if it is to survive as an independent nation. Preljudiced Longman and Segregation. Canton, O.—A resolution favoring the segregation of the Afro-Americans and whites in orphan asylums was adopted at the state conference in Chicago and corrections last Thursday and is another outrage upon decency in Ohio. It was introduced by one, "Rev." R. A. Longman, assistant superintendent of the Cincinnati Children's Home. Longman said he believed the mingling of the sexes in childhood tended to encourage intermarriage, he said, where the friendship of children had ripened into love and marriage when they grew up. Too bad, isn't it? The state legislature will be urged to take the action recommended and Afro-Americans better wake up right away and be more practical without representation in that body; no man of education and ability there as a member. Springfield Riot Damages Springfield, Ill.—Mrs. Mattie Walker, when household furniture was burned by the mob during the Springfield riot August, 1908, was awarded a verdict of $268 against the city in the circuit court October 29. It was the first verdict for damages against the city on claims growing out of the riot. Suit was instituted under illiinois' anti-lynching law which is a copy of Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio anti-lynching law. Col. Perry Carson Dead. Washington, D. C.-The veteran politician and local leader, Col. Perry H. Carson, of this city, died Sunday week.

THATCOSTS 6000 LIVESYEARLY All Black Slaves on the Plantations of Principe and San Thome—Stolen from West Africa and placed in Portuguese Slave-Drivers. Urgent appeals are constantly made to the American people to aid in freeing the slaves of Congo-land, a process of some uncertainty, yet little attention is paid to equally oppressive slavery in another land at which the slaves of Congo-land strike a telling blow with no danger of international complications. Thirty thousand blacks labor in the plantations of Principe and San Thome under the whips of Portuguese slave-drivers to produce the cocoa which is such a favorite American beverage, and the chocolate which forms a part of every American infestation. These slaves live in their homes in Angola, the West African territory of Portugal, and held prisoner on the island farms until they die from hard work and cruel treatment. The big chocolate and cocoa manufacturers of Germany, France and England have boycotted, slave-drivers have been ordered to their homes depend upon America for their market. Every year 6,000 slaves die. The cocoa plantations are one vast graveyard for the victims of Portuguese cruelty. If Americans refused to drink cocoa or eat chocolate produced by the work of slaves, slavery would be done away with. Are the women of the United States in Europe who refused to enjoy cocoa and chocolate at such a fearful cost of human life and liberty? Will they stand idle while 6,000 human beings are sacrificed each year for their pleasure? Surely they must hasten to pledge themselves not to drink slave-grown cocoa and force the slave to work in the plantations in their trade in human life. Any other course is inconsistent with the principles of this great republic, and false to the high ideals of American romance.-Chicago Journal. CULLOM'S SILLY TALK. Only Two Southern States Have More Negroes Than Whites—"Negro Domination," a Myth. Washington, D. C—What Sengtor Culbens said recently, was: "Eliminate the Negro from politics in the south—give that section of the country an exclusively white ballot or a franchisement which shall mean absolute and unequivocal white supremacy in the management of its whole affairs, and there's not a state below the Mason and Dixon line which will not be found in the Republican column of the electoral college." Senator Cullom's discussion of the subject was apropos of President Taft's tour of the southern states. "The whole truth of the situation," said Senator Scales, "is that the south lives in and really needs the enforcement of the Republican doctrine of a protective tariff. Therefore, the people of that section would like to vote in behalf of candidates—congressional, national and state—who would support such a policy. But they are held in leash, so to speak, and the fear of colored men in office, both of the elective class and those appointed at Washington. They are afraid of the race issue; there can be no doubt of that. They are constantly in a state of excitement over the prospect of a colored vote. They are cling together against the black man as a matter of protection, not of their industrial interests, but of their personal affairs. But I am satisfied that if the Negro were not a factor in politics in the south there would not be a state in which to vote with our party, and which would not support our candidates and their principles." Silly talk! Cullom is in his dotage. City Clerk Peter Witt Makes Crowd Laugh "Senator Burton voted to put a tariff of 4 cents a pound on bacon," said Witt, "but in return he gives you an offset in free arsenic. You people, who have to meet the high prices can appreciate free arsenic. The tariff on bicycles was fixed at 45 per cent, but in return Senator Burton voted to give you free birds' eggs. Now, we come to something the senator appointed in. Of course, Mr. Burton, who never has bought a bonnet, voted to place a tariff of 35 per cent on bonnet wire. But that the women might not suffer he voted for free dragon's blood. Suppose some of you go over to the drug store and see what you have to pay for dragon's blood. "A rate of from 30 to 35 per cent was placed on brick, but that you might not suffer. You give you a bonnet. Next, but not least, and I have to laugh at this myself, Senator Burton voted a tariff of 35 per cent on corset steel, but in return divi-divi, whatever that may be, is placed on the free list."

And by the same token, every Jocal Negro who supported and voted for him (Baehr) ought to be ashamed to look himself in the face in a look: ing-glass, to say nothing of looking in- to the faces of manly, self and race respecting Afro-Americans who were too loyal “to lick the hand that had smote them” for seven long years. ‘There weren't many that voted for Baehr, we'll admit, "As to the Negro, Tom Fleming: We opposed his nomination for xood reasons repeatedly given. After his nomination, we had little or nothing to say relative to his candidacy. ‘As a matter of fact, both Baehr ‘and Fleming ought to have been defeated and would have been but for the fact that more than ten thousand Democrats failed to vote their ticket, about two or three thousand of them yoting the Republican ticket. "Yes, we plead guilty to being an “oppositionist” when it comes to sup- porting white mén for office who re- fuse to give employment in their of- fices to members of the race as black ‘as “Noomdy,” and when it comes to supporting Negroes for office we be- Heve to be unfit for the same.

Under the above heading the Chica- ‘g0 Inter Ocean of the %th coutained fhe following editorial: ‘“Benator Cullom’s suggestion that THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, ., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1909. the Republican party, for the sake of getting Republican congressmen and presidential electors from the south, sountenance a general disfranchise- ment of Negro voters—some practical annulment of constitutional rights— must be set down as too atrocious to be fully realized at first glance. In its large numbers of ignorant Negro citizens the south has a serious prob- lem. But @ problem of citizenship is not solved by abolishing the citizens who compose It, And when the mo- tive advanced is merely one of parti- san gain the proposition becomes simply unthinkable to decent Ameri- cans. ‘There are few northern men now who will not admit that the ef- fort of the "60s to create a new elec- torate in mass in the south was far from @ success, But the fact that this might have been better done tor- ty years ago does not release us one Whit from the obligation to the con- stitution as it is, Few northern men would object to restrictions upon the suffrage, made in good faith and ap- plying to all citizens without regard to race. Had the south been con- tent to impose equal educational tests, or equal property tests, for ex: ample, there would have been no erit- icism from those whose opinions real- ly count, The south has been criti cised only for its efforts to disfran- chise the colored men by “grand- father clauses,” and lke un-American devices, while leaving untouched the white men who suffered from the same disabilities. By Senator Cul- lom’s words we are reminded of the sad truth that great age brings sad penalties. For the welfare of his country, and his own fame, Senator Callom should promptly sink back in to silence.” Senator Shelby M. Cullom, with an unbroken record of twenty-six years in ‘the United States senate as a Repub: ican, representing a Republican state, linois, and a friend of Lin- coln, has clearly reached his. dotage and therefore has been in public life too long. The old man is rounding out his long career in a way to bring the blush of shame not only to the cheeks of his constituents, but. also ‘to those of the entire north and the Republican party. That at this late day and time, he of all men in public life should be so completely fooled by that old southern tale that the elim: ination of the Afro-American of that section would Republicanize it, even in goodly part, Is indeed amazing, as the Inter Ocean intimates. That the south has fooled President Taft and captured him, belly and all, ts not surprising because he has neither the experience in public life (legislative) nor the ability Cullom has evidenced in the past, and besides Taft has shown himself a willing tool of the south. All who advocate disfranchise- ment of the southern Negro, including the president of the United States, ig nore the fact that they are advocating the practical nullification of parts of the fundamental law of the land, the United States constitution, and are establishing a mighty dangerous prec: edent that may ultimately result in the destruction of this government. It is undoubtedly the most dangerous at- tack upon the very foundation of this republic made since the war of the rebellion. And for what? For mere partisan politieal advanicee, — they think. As a matter of fact. no con: eiderable gain to the Republican par ty will result as Callom claims and Taft and his Kidney, hope for. Com mercialiem is running riot with the Republican party, these days, for it Is at the bottom of this foolish over. weening desire and ambition to bring into closer political relations — the north and the south. Something that will never come to pass as long as the section of Tom Dixon, Jim Vardaman, Ben. Tillman, John Graves, Tom Het lin and their kind, remembers so viv. idly, the beating it received between “61 and '65, and for which it blames the “nawth.” Strange that any intel ligent man of Cullom and Taft's years, should he so easily cajoled, misled anc made fools of by the south, to the ex tent of imbibing its prejudices and isms even to disfranchisement, a thing wholly at variance with the funda. mental principles and laws of this country! Great God! whither is this great American government and peo ple drifting? ADDITIONAL LOGAL NEWS ‘The biennial missionary convention is in session at St. John’s church— 1th to the 14th.

We have always thought and taught that it ts. better that "99 guilty escape than one inno- cent 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 entirely Innocent. 1 thought we should at least separate the innocent from the guilty. The Inquiry at Washington. “We started Into the Investigation with that kind of an idea. T examined the testimony as it came along. The men were subpoened. ‘They. were brought into the committee room and examined, one after another, and. 1 want to say to you gentlemen now for you will be Interested in knowing it, have been practicing law many years, examining witnesses and weighing evidence, and I never in all this time have seen @ more truthful and con: Vineing 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, im the Philippines and in Cuba ana elsewhere, defending the flag, but they had never been at the seat of govern- ment. “They were taken into that great building, the capitol, and one after an- other ushered Into’ the committee room, where sat 18 senators, constitut ing the committee on military affairs. ‘They were sworn, and the stenog. rapher took down every question that was asked and every answer that was given. ‘They were put through the or deal of examination and cross-examin- ttion and all kinds of reexamination, by men tying to draw out of them some kind of evidence of guilt, either on the part of the witnesses them selves or somebody else connected with the battalion, as to whose guilt they could give some evidence ot some clew. Those poor men had no help of any kind, except such as 1 in my weak way, could give them by ask- ing questions and so directing the ex amination gs to bring out the facts. But that was all the help they needed I never was so impressed with the majesty and the power and the over- whelming and convincing force of truth. “These poor, weak, ignorant, help: less men were able to prevail and did prevail over all the powers of this fovernment, wielded and directed by i man who had an almost demoniacal 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 could discharge them, but with al the powers of government he could hot, overcome the simple truth they told. (Applause). “I soon became convinced that. not A man in that battalion had anything more to do with that shooting than you gentlemen heré had. I have said it in the senate. I have said it tn public: speech, because I felt it my duty to say it, I mean my duty to ward those men. “It is now three years and two months since that shooting occurred. According to the theory of Mr. Roose: velt, there were 187 men connected with the case. To justify himself against the charge that he wag pun- ishing innocent men his contention was that those who did not partic pate in the shooting knew all about It; that they were accesories and that they had inaugurated a conspiracy of silence, so that none of them would tell, and thus nobody could be pun: {shed. Three years and two months have passed, and the conspiracy of silence is. still triumphant! (Ap- planus). Whelan ebantite!

And when that time comes you can look back through all your tribula- tion and feel that in the great achleve- ments you have wrought there is an abundant reward for all the trials you have undergone. Therefore, do not be discouraged. Have spirit and go for ward with hope and confidence. “Now, I didn't have any idea of talking to you so long.

Neither do I refer to the public serv- fee. You have seen fit to kindly al- lude to that. I have no desire to ever again hold public office, but I have al- ways had a desire to do my full duty as I understood it, without regard to consequences, (Applause). 1 could not fail in this respect and be happy; and thut is the only desire I have now.

(Applause.) “Returning now to the examination; there was not a question asked at any time by any member of that com- mittee that was not answered immedi- ately, without any hesitation, frankly, fully, just as only absolutely truthful, Innocent men would answer. Having the opinion that they are all innocent, and that such will ultimately be the prevailing judgment, as it is now the Judgment of the great majority of the people—white as well as black—hay- ing that opinion, I am, of course, glad to look back and be able to recall that I did stand up, as you suggest, against all opposition they saw fit to bring — and they brought a great deal. (Ap- plause.) Yes, they fought hard, but I am happy to think they found’ some- body on guard every time. (Applause.) ‘That is my impression. (Laughter.) Tam glad I did all that, and I am glad that the colored people of the United States appreciate it, for I am rejoiced to have their good will. “I have had a great deal of concern for them throughout my public life, and Tam sorry to say that I feel com- pelled to have a great deal more acute concern for them Just now. (Ap- plause.) “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 T 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 equal- ity, That's a thing that regulates it- self. But I do believe, and always have believed, in political equality as to all political rights under the con- stitution and before the law. (Ap- plause.) “I thought when the war was over we had abolished slavery: and 1 thought when we got through with re- construction 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 sup- pose the time would ever come when his rights, so conferred upon him would be questioned except by irre. sponsible violators of the law. That is lable 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 unkind: ness, When in every southern state, almost without exception, the Negro Is practically slistranchised, his right to vote is practically taken away from him, and just now another great po: litical 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. 1 refer to the contest now in progress in the state of Maryland, where the 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. 1 do not believe they will. I hope they will not. I think, from what has been told me, that there are a great many Dem: ocrats in the state of Maryland who do not believe that the proposition up- on which they have to vote—taking away from the colored man his right to the dallot-box—should prevail. | 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 will have'a victory, and that we may all continue to say, "Blessed be the name of Abraham Lin- coin! His work shall not be undone’.” The Knell of Argument. “*Tain't much use o° arguin’,” said Uncle Eben. “If you's talkin’ to a man dat has mo sense dan you has, de bes’ thing you kin do Is to keep quiet an’ listen.

Henning, the rich banker of 113 Broadway, fell very suddenly In love with the young Marquis de Charette, who was then in this country on a visit. The marquis called upon Mr. Henning at his apart- ment in the Plaza, told him who he was and how much he cared for his daughter, and was told in return :o think nothing more about it whatso- ever—international marriages being the one thing outside of bankruptey to which Mr, Henning was most vio- ently opposed. “ll marry her in spite of you,” spoke up the rebuked nobleman with hardihood. “You'll sure have some trouble first,” retorted Mr. Henning, who is from Kentucky, as are all the Hen- nings, and employs Kentucky talk. ‘Two days afterward the Marquis de Charette and Miss Henning went out and hired a middle aged woman named Miss Virginia Hamilton to chaperone them, and the day after that they were many leagues out at sea eloping to France. Neither was particularly well provided with funds for that voyage, and they reached Paris to find that the elopement could not continue without immediate and substantial aid. The young marquis telegraphed his mother, the Baroness de Charette, and she motored hastily to Paris from her estate in Brittany with the needed money. Meanwhile Miss Henning was cabling her wealthy father for a consent to their engagement. Mr. Henning fumed a great deal, but cabled his consent to Paris and followed himself and brought his daughter back. But while abroad Mr, Henning met Gen, de Charette, who is a descendant of all the French Charleses, and met the baroness, who is heiress to the famous Kentucky estates of one time President James K. Polk. PENSION FOR AGED EMPLOYES All Men Over 70 Years on the New York Central Railroad System Will be Benefited. New York City.—At a meeting of the directors of the New York Cen- tral system here it was announced that a comprehensive system for pen- sioning aged employes has been ap- proved, whereby all employes who have attained the age of 70 can re- tire on a pension which is to be based on the average rate of pay. The roads affected are the New York Cen- tral, Lake Shore & Michigan South- ern and Michigan Central. Explaining the plan, President Brown said: “Employes reaching the age of 70 years are retired, If they, have been in continuous service with the company for ten years preceding they are entitled’ to a pension. Em- ployes 20 years in continual service, becoming unfit for duty, may be re: tired, although they have not reached 70. The pension system becomes ef- fective January 9, and will be admin- istered by J. Carstensen, A. H. Smith, C. D. Shaff and A. H. Harris, vice presidents; R, H. L'Hommedieu, J, B. Deems, D. C.

Current rumor has it that County Treasurer Meyers has appointed John Fulton to a minor clerkship, that County Auditor Prestien has made "Germany" Hudson a messenger in his office, and that the county commissioners have appointed "Bill" Redd, night watchman at the old court house. The Fulton appointment will not please the mass of our people in this city, nor will the others. We should have had a clerkship in Prestien's office, and two appointments at that court house, the commissioner who "fired" Dallas Cooper and Jim Tilley. Then, too, the selections are not generally satisfactory by any means. Just remember this for future use—a few years hence.

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 achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown. The further fact that they have kept frequently unused 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 with out it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE. MRS. A. M.

A CLOSE BOND. Farmer's Wife—They were born the same day. Neighbor—Twins, in fact. Mistake Somewhere A story comes from a Kentucky town that is worth repeating. There lives there a woman who says that she has immediate communion with the Almighty, and now and then delivers to those of common clay a message that she has received from on high. The fact that these messages sometimes take on a very materialistic hue does not alter their effectiveness, in her opinion. One day she went into the office of a well known attorney and approached him solemnly as one about to reveal an awe-inspiring secret. "The Lord sent me to you for $25," she announced. The attorney looked up and smiled. "That must be a mistake," he replied, blandly, "because the Lord knows I have not got it." Celestial communication was there upon broken off. "Jimmy," said the pretty actress to her actor husband, "won't you run down to the milliner's and get me the hat I ordered?" "Sure I won't make a mistake?" queried Jimmy, somewhat dubiously, with a caution born of an utter ignorance of millinery. "Oh, you won't," laughed the spouse. "My hat is the white beaver trimmed with orchids. You can remember that." Gameley he went to his doom. Entering the millinery shop, he asked, valiantly: "Is my wife's hat ready? I mean the white bifter, trimmed with oh-you-kids." And the French girls in the shop made funny Parisian giggles at him. Looking Brighter. "Things are looking brighter now," says a Billville citizen. "The sheer is now my brother-in-law, and he won't levy on my crop; the town doctor boards with me, and doesn't charge a cent for tellin' me that if I don't quit eatin' six meals a day I'll not live to be a hundred, and last of all, the head undertaker is my best friend, and has promised to fix me finally. "I feel that I don't half deserve so many blessings, but I've got 'em and I'm going to hold on to them."—Atlanta Constitution. Grace. A paper out in northwestern Kansas tells of a plious old farmer who has the habit of gazing at the rafters in his dining-room when saying grace. One day while so engaged he forgot himself, and his grace sounded something like this: "We thank thee for this food and—by Joe! there's that darned gimlet I've been looking for for the last six months. I will have Jim go up there and get it. Thou hast been gracious to us, O Lord, and again we thank thee. Amen!"—Kansas City Star. SOME HARD KNOCKS The injurious action of Coffee on the heart of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. This is the drug found by chemists in coffee and tea. A woman suffered a long time with severe heart trouble and finally her doctor told her she must give up coffee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes: "My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again. "The doctor told me that coffee was causing the weakness of my heart. He said I must stop it, but it seemed I could not give it up until I was down in bed with nervous prostration. "For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally I Hushband brought home some Postum and I quit coffee and started new and right. Slowly I got well. Now I do not have any headache, nor those spells with weak heart. We know it is Postum that helped me. The Dr. said the other day, I never thought you would be what you are.' I used to weigh 92 pounds and now I weigh 158. "Postum has done much for me and I would not go back to coffee again for any money, for I believe it would kill me if I kept at it. Postum must be well boiled according to directions on pkg, then it has a rich flavour and with cream is fine." Read "The Road to Wellville," found in pkgs. "There's a Reason."

HAMLINS WIZAR THE OIL THE ANOTHER IMPORTANT VICTORY FOR THE CARTER MEDICINE COMPANY IN THE UNITED STATES COURT. The United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York— sitting in New York City—has just awarded to the Carter Medicine Company a decree which again sustains the company's exclusive right to use the red package for liver pills. By the terms of the decree, it is, among other things: Adjudged that the Carter Medicine Company is the owner of the sole and exclusive right to the use of red colored wrappers and labels upon said small, round packages of liver pills of the style described in the bill of complaint; said right having been acquired by the prior adoption of said style and color of package for liver pills by the complainant predecessors more than thirty years ago, and established by the continuous and exclusive use of the same in constantly increasing quantities by said predecessors and by the complainant, the Carter Medicine Company, itself, from the time of their said adoption until the present day. The decision just announced is perhaps the most important and far-reaching of all, by reason of the character of the tribunal which rendered it.
