THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY BEAUTY IN THE NEW STYLES MAKES A PRETTY PRESENT IN BELICON PRESENTATIVA TWENTY-SEVEN Late The theater or opera gown is of white silk, braided in black rat tail and trimmed with black net. The buttons are covered with net. The buttons is finished with a large soft chou of black panne velvet: Black and white is one of the smartest combinations and practical, too, as one does not tire Never Have Gowns Designed for Feminine Adornment Be Prettier Than This Season. Somebody—a mere man I think it must have been—stumbled over the new name "la lausee" and blundered into the still newer one, "la lionsera". Really, when you stop to think of it, it wasn't such a bad break, after all. There is a great deal of kinship between the washerwoman and the flatterer. The latter is a prettier name, certainly, perhaps not as descriptive, but quite as truthful, as the first. For there is no doubt about it—the new styles are flattering. Take the least attractive of women and put her in the most attractive of dresses—a soft petal-like drapery, a beguiling feminine bib, and a fachu that makes you think of Marie Antoinette or the "Lady with a Muff"—and you may take my word for it that the gown will cajole the most unpromising form and features into something very close to beauty. It really seems as if the gowns of the present year had been especially designed to make plain women lovely and lovely women still loveliest. Take, for instance, a dress that I saw at a casino dinner not long ago. It was so very beautiful that you quite forgot to analyze its wearer's charm and simply set her down in your memory as a most enchanting person—Lauden La Fontaine in the Dellinea. DAINTY LITTLE DRESS. A dainty little dress such as this might be made up in cashmere, velling or viyella. It has a strip of plaited material down center of front, the plains are stitched to just past the waist, the edges of other parts are scalloped and laid over folds of darker material, and have buttons sewn on as trimming. The sleeves are set to a plain cuff finished off by a lace frill. Materials required: 6 yards 42 inches wide, 1 dozen buttons, $ \frac{1}{4} $ yard darker material. THE GAZETTE of it as quickly as one does of colors Light gray tweed and white fur form the trotter suit. The coat is cut on the semi-fitting lines, which is the favorite type for general wear. The hat is turban shape, of white fur, with a black velvet crown, and two broad black and white cuffs. Fan Bag, Always Acceptable, and by No Means Difficult to Construct at Home. Just to throw together in a hurry and yet to accomplish the most dashy and effective of presents. Here is one of the most fascinating of fan bags for the young girl partygoer or for the matron who never stirs without her fan. It is merely a finished strip of Chinese embroidery on satin—the kind ripped from a royal mandarin's old jacket and sold in our country as "curio." The embroidered strips run to blues and yellows, and are about thirty inches long. Double one together, wrong side out, and fell the sides with perfect stitches; face the top with its least obtrusive color in a plain satin or China silk. Draw the bag with ribbons of its darker shade run through a casing, and put the fan inside or not, according to the dictates of your conscience—or your purse. To Carry a Neat Tray. There is no reason or excuse for serving a patient with a sloppy tray. No matter how heavily it is laden or how far it must be carried nothing need be spilled if precautions are observed. Do not fill tumbler, pitcher or cup full. Never pour cream over cereal or fruit, but put it in a tiny pitcher. Individual pots for coffee, tea or chocolate are not expensive. They keep liquid warm, besides being more neatly handled. Most important of all when the tray is finally full, perhaps to overflowing, nothing need be spilled over the edges if the one who is carrying it will sway the tray slightly from side to side as she walks. Grandma's Shawl You may use your grandma's lace shawl—hine fine old black lace shawl—again if you have ingenuity enough to drape it. I say "again" because it is supposed you have done so before, and because I mean to imply that, with care, you may use the beautiful thing over and over again. It should not be cut, but only draped in tunic shape, and if too long it may first be drawn up in apron-bib lines, and even tied into pannier knots at the front, back or side, according to the lines of the garment. Buttonholes in Strips. The home dressmaker or the seam-stress who dislikes to work button-holes will find joy in the fact that they can be bought by the yard and in all kinds of fabrics. They can make calf or silk strips, and can be easily attached to the edge of a blouse which is to fasten under a fly. The New Old Striper French women are wearing the most adorable slippers, made of exquisite brocades, with lovely odd designs; the same style slipper that was worn in the sixteenth and seventeenth century—long and narrow shoes, but with a square rather than pointed toe. Darted Sleeve Liked A favorite sleeve is the one that has no fullness at the shoulders. Instead, the extra material is put into tiny darts which are carefully fitted about the armhole, the material being cut away underneath.

According to the Montgomery Daily Advertiser, not 90,000 voters, all told, cast their votes in that state at the recent election. There are 288,000 voters. Already the nation's schemes for disfranchising the Afro-American have resulted in disfranchising more than 120,000 white voters in that state. When an Afro-American attorney of Fort Smith, Ark., appeared in police court for the purpose of defending a client, Police Judge Woestman refused to allow him to practice in the city.

Mr. William Key, one of our richest men, is dead of heart disease at his home in Shelbyville, Tenn.

This is the record of the same policy in democracy — New Orleans (La.) Southern city. The New York Age is being pressed by various papers for its attempt to defend President Taft in his terrible treatment of the Afro-American people. The Dallas Express is among the latest to thump the Age (Booker Washington's paper) on its bald cranium, in a vain attempt to remind it of the brutality of his mistreatment. Let another race journal bump again and in the same spot. If that be the MEN among us, let them come forth. The Eye. The Ohlicans and northerners generally will no doubt notice that since Mr. Taft's election to the presidency, notwithstanding the uncompromising severity with which he was abused, as the Republican candidate, by the press during the campaign, together with the fact that he received no support, he never from those of the south who are buried in their servile flattery, they are yet likely to claim credit for his election. —Southern Age. The mayor of Beley, Okla., is an Afro-American, likewise the president of the bank and his associates and employees; the school system and seminary are in our charge; the girl who says "number, please," at the telephone exchange, the young woman and telegram at the telegraph office, and the one behind the cigar counter at the hotel, such its is owned and operated by Afro-Anticans, are members of the race. The entire 5,000 population of the town is "Hamitic." Whenever the Clansman has appeared the colored people have made a great to do about it. From the Bee's standpoint it sees nothing in the play that the colored people should go frantic over. The play is going to Boston, and the Bee hopes that the trees that are citizens will attend the play if they want to attend and if they don't want to attend. The more fuss you kick up about the play the more you advertise it. It will die a natural death if you will permit it to run.—Ex. John Arthur Johnson, champion heavyweight piglist of the world, became a taxpayer in Chicago last week Friday, when a deed was filed for record making him sole owner of propiedad which comprises a three-story dwelling on an 1844 644 square house and lot were purchased for $11,000. A garage will be built, where Jack will keep his fast automobiles, and he plans to make room for at least four machines. Adjacent to the garage will be a gymnasium. Johnson's brother has gone to Galveston to bring his mother to Chicago. He has carved a barn has promised to give $200,000. Lincoln Institute, near Shelbyville, Ky. the Afro-American branch of Berea, Ky. college, of which the race has been robbed, providing the school and its friends will raise an equal amount. The 440 acres of land have been purchased about nine miles from Shelbyville, and $191,000 has been collected. There is $20,000 in the bank, which is still unpaid. There is $9,000 to get the Carnegie money. The limit has been put to this pledge, and if not raised soon, then the institute will lose it. The intelligent Negroes, north and south, object to Mr. Taft's surrender of the city, which rights to the south; they object to his disfranchisement and possession of Negroes in travel; they object to his painful silence on lynching and man burning; they object to his alusion that the Negro is yet to get education and property before he can be a good citizen, when, at the present as well as in the past, his good standing in the city as a soldier made it possible for even Taft to be president of the United States—St. Louis (Mo.) Advance. Felicia Terry's record in the Raymond district (Canterbury, Conn.) was so satisfactory that this year she was re-engaged. The anti-Negro agitation, started by prejudiced southern whites, was increased when another of the school board as a teacher in another part of the town. It grew to such bitterness that only two pupils were sent to her, and the board of education was compelled to close the Raymond school, transferring the pupils to another district. The best residents of the community have been quick to take sides with Miss Terry, and there is talk of legal action to compel the school board her salary for the unexpired term. President Taft on his southern tour has been paying little or no attention to his Negro constituency. He has been invited to address Negroes here in Columbia and elsewhere, but to no avail; and I cannot find where he has delivered any speeches to colored people. The Palmets is a wise, political "move" orhaps to bring southern Democrats into the Republican ranks. But to my mind he may just as well try to make Episcopalians out of Baptists and Baptists out of Methodists as to try to land the southern Democrats into the Republican ranks. The southern people will eat "possum" and coon with him and entertain him royally—or that is southern spirit; but they into the Democratic ticket. Raymond Curtis, editor Columbia (S. C.) Ploughman.

But it is strange that Negroes are so missive. The whites are taking the Negro's rights, one after another, and the Negro is making no contention against this steady encroachment upon his rights. Thus the white man is encouraged to move along the lines of white privilege, always in the lead. That may not be Christianity, but it is perfectly nat ural, and it is in accord with the white man's way of doing things. And the more we study this question of bad treatment against the Negro, the more we are convinced that it is the Negro's fault. He will not contend for anything that is worth having. He will fall down at every point when it comes to contending for his rights. He will talk around his desire and on the curbstones, and that is as far as he will go. He is an easy prey for the white man, and he will be nothing more until he learns to contend and safeguard his rights. BRAIN-STORMS ARE PASSING HOW GEORGE B. COX RUBBEN INTO W. H.

COX RUBBED IT INTO W. H. TAFT AT THE RECENT ELECTION Bad Fall for Reform Mayors and Other Reformers—The Catholic's Stand in the Recent Maryland Disfran chisement Fight—Opposed to Segregation—Foraker for Senator. Portland, Orc, Nov. 16, 1909. Editor Gazette—Dear Sir: Mayor Tom L. Johnson was defeated at last. I am sorry—not that I loved him more, but I loved his opponent less. However, taken in connection with the other city elections, it looks like the people were getting tired of these reformers who talked eternally, posing as such very virtuous people and calling in counsel, disagreed with them rogues and criminals. Braves do not last with the American people. I see George B. Cox elected mayor of the "Queen City," the very man Mr. W. H. Taft defeated five years ago. I am glad of it. But what a bitter dose for Mr. Taft to swallow—his own home city repudiating his counsel, a legacy ago and by an increased majority indorsing the man he condemned. Well, Mr. Cox has the reputation of paying his debts and he owes a heavy one of insult and humiliation to the Tafts. Here's hoping he pays it with heavy interest. Portland turned out her reform (?) may last June and San Francisco has abjured it, of which this reaction keeps up, we shall soon see the people repudiate Roosevelt and all his works and all his ways. The bright thing for Afro-Americans is Maryland's rejection of the disfranchising amendment; due, I think, largely to the stand against it of Archbishop Gibbons. After all, the church has strength for any cause she spouses, and in her communion there is no color line. Neither rich nor poor, bond or free, black or white; only sinners needing a Savior. If she throws the mantle of her protection round the southern black and a white man dare to walk north will ask why. And it will not be well for that white man. Do you think a Catholic priest would hesitate to shake hands with a Negro, or run if the white south objected? It is wrong in principle. You will win yet; a partial defeat need not worry you. Reaction always equals action, and this foolish attempt to introduce southern methods into dear old Ohio will be fittingly rebuked. Know you have noticed that George B. H. Forsker his indulgence of Hon. J. B. Forsker for the United States senate. Yours sincerely, MRS. PATRICIA ROBISON. HOW JOHNSON WHIPPED JEFF Some Interesting Fight History by C E. Van Loan. The first time I remember seeing Jack Johnson was when he crawled under the ropes at Hazard's pavilion in Los Angeles and took a look across the ring at Jack Jeffries, the brother of the champion. Now, Jack was the natured big fellow in the world, and he had been through several seasons of the hardest sort of training with his brother. Jack had an idea that he was a champion in the make-up of the amount of punishment without staying on the floor for ten seconds. Jack wanted a fight and he wanted it in Los Angeles. Heavyweights were scarse, and when a big colored man blew in from San Francisco and announced himself as willing to fight any of the local men, McMcarey saw a chance to accommodate his friend, Jack Jeffries. Most of the changes that he made to Johnson as he entered the ring that night. In those days, Johnson weighted close to 190 pounds, said In appearance, it cannot be said that Johnson, in condition today, shows the changes that a few years usually bring to a man. We noticed that he grinned a great deal and laughed with his mouth wide open, but he had no golden smile in 1902. Jim Jeffries sat in Jack's corner, but he let the others do the advising. I remember that the changes before he began training for Fitzpatrick mons. The fight was a hummer while it lasted. Jack Jeffries out to win and he attacked every way he knew, but Johnson was then, as now, a marvel of defensive boxing. Jack ripped and tore away at the big black arms, but he could not land a telling punch. Jim, with his eyes narrowed down to slits, watched the battle and his right hand came up from his waist. It was a short punch, but it had a tremendous lifting power behind it and Jeffries went clear off the floor and the soles of his feet were still in the air when the back of his head was knockout and Jim grimaced sarcastically when the seconds carried Jack back to his corner. "I told him not to fight that fellow," was all Jeffries said. The quick work Johnson made of Jack Jeffries started him on the way to easy money and plenty of battles. The first impression was a good one and Los Angeles was crazy to see more of the black whirlwind. A report states that American tobacco interests will erect a cotton mill. We have stood for hay, alfalfa, cabbage, and Manila cigars, but cotton—never—Wall Street Journal. ee THE GAZETTE : PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY, SUBSCRIPTION RATES. (IN ADVANCE.)

TAFT’S “NEW SOUTHERN POLICY” Seg agree Or iikae Ss Pertti 5 genni 3 Roosevelt,” the Republican ~ Inter- | Ocean, a Chicago daily, compares the | ideas of the two presidents upon cer- fain points regarding policies, meas ures, methods, ete., much to the dis idvantage of Mr. Roosevelt as to pol icles and methods more particularly | in the course of this dissertation, the writer has this to say as to the final conclusion of his meditation Mr. Taft expressly declares that he is “entirely opposed to excepting from the operation of any general law any class of persons, like labor- ers or workingmen or farmers or min- isters or teachers or lawyers.” | He rightly describes all efforts to establish inequality before the law. among American citizens as “lexisla- tion of the most vicious character.” | He is s0 positive on this point that his remarks may be regarded as al Most a peraonal rebuke to his prede- cessor in office. Be the inference on that point as it may, it is evident that in many ways we have now 2 presi- dent of ideals and methods entirely different from those of the distin- guished gentleman who is now divid- ing his tine between killing wild beasts and writiig magazine articles, And in that fact the country may weil rejoice. ‘This is very comforting, indeed, as far as it goes and so far as it is true, But the trouble with Mr, Taft is, that he does not go the full length of his “ideals,” mor does the luter-Ocean and most other “Republican organs” for that matter. An eclatant instance of the correctness of our contention, to which we invite the attention of the president and his adherents, will be found in the so-called “new south- em policy” of the president of the United States, ALL the states, if you please, dear citizens, In this “south: ern policy,” the president of all the United States, the chiet executive of all the people, the representative of all citizens, regardiess of station in life, professions, avocations (see his above remarks!), of ereed, or —-— ahem! of color (mark it!), has pro: claimed with a frankness that is al- most shocking, since It is akin to boasting of one’s yielding {o wrong, that he will “not appoint any Afro: American to office in the south where there is objection to (a prejudice against) him!" Mark you; not for any good reason in opposition to the man, (prejudice is unreason, as the very word Implies—“to judge beforehand’), ‘To repeat, this “makes prejudice the judge in theehair and its victim the defendant!” It goes without saying that there is no warrant for such a doctrine in the constitution; there is ‘none in civilized law anywhere! It ‘anybody is s0 stupid, mentally or mor: ally, a8 not to be able to see the in- justice, the illegality of this “pol- icy,” let us put the case more con- cretely: Let us assume that the pres- ident of all the United States aud all Its people appointed a Jew (a citi: zen), or & naturalized citizen from England, Ireland, Germany or almost any other country on the face of the globe, to office in a locality “where there is a prejudice against the ap- pointee” because of the class or race of people with which he is, identified, would the people acquiesce in his “poiley" if he withdrew his appoint: ment because of that prejudice? Or, going further with the matter; if, rec: ognizing that prejudice protest, he would proclaim “that he would not appoint a Jewish-Ameriean, ete., to office in this prejudiced district, or state, what a howl would go up, for the Jews are influential in this country and have to be reckoned with in its “polities! Such a policy should be condemned on all sides as unjust, un- constitutional, inhumane, unrepubli- can; in short, unjustifiable trom any standpoint, intellectually and”“morally. ‘The Afro-American has no special privileges; he asks none either, but he cannot be treated otherwise than Americans of all other classes are; he cannot be discriminated against, to put it plainly, no matter who demands it as contract for his approval of whatever “policy,” no matter who adopts the discrimination as a bait for whatever “policy fom whatso- fever motives, good ones not excepted! Mr. Taft does—no matter how much he and his adherents may protest and expostulate—Mr. Taft, to use the lan- guage of the Republican Inter-Ocean, does “except from the operation of the law, a elass of persons.” ‘The right to hold office is, in a republic, contained in the right to vote, and this right is ‘guaranteed to manliood regardless of “color or previous condition” by the ‘eonstitution of the United States, which is sovereign to that of any state in this, that no laws in opposi- ‘tion or in subversion of the tenets, made by a state, is legal—in the na- tion's judicial code. Whatever may be sald against Mr. Roosevelt, his re- marks in the message announcing the acceptance of Oklahoma to stateship, ring true. Said he: “Oklahoma hay- ing complied to the 14th and 15th amendments of the constittition,” ete., ete, We invite, we court the atten tion of the present president of the United States and a host of others holding with him, to our point, and wish to hear from them on their “condemnation of all efforts to estab- lish’ inequality of the law,” or its ex: ‘geution! THE BIENNIAL CONVENTION Ard. Thirty-fifth Anniversary of the Woman's Parent Mite Mission- ary Society. The first blennis! convention under the direction of the Parent Mite ex ecutive board was held in St. John's church November 11 to 14, and was largely attended. This yeas also the 35th duniversary of the Woman's Par- ent Mite Missionary society. The ob- fect of the convention was to bring about more interest in the missionary work and produce more missionary in- spiration. The quadrennial conven- tions being so taken up with the heavy routine attendant upon present- ing the work to the general confer- ence, Mrs. Handy being absent on ac- count of the bishop's illness. Mrs Rosa Johnson, first vice president. presided at ali sessions. Many good papers were read and many discus- sions entered into pertaining to the good of the work. Especially inter- esting were the talks and addresses given by Miss Hallie Brown and Mrs. Sada J. Anderson, The former was elected’ delegate to the world mis sionary conference, which Is to con- vene In Edinburgh, Scotland, Tuesday, June 14, 1910, Mrs, Margaret Hil of Baltimore, alternate. Mr. Thomas Bombasa Kalane, Inhambane, East Af- rica, student at Wilberforce, was Present. He came directly from the uncivilized parts of Africa, where no missionary has entered, and has been in this country only four years. Mr. Kalane has taken on the English lan- guage well and expresses himself nicely considering his limited vocabu- lary. He spoke to the children Sun- day afternoon and his sincerity so im- pressed the audience that when Miss Brown asked that a collection be giv en him. they expressed their sympa- thy in deeds, not words, and a goodly sum was raised to assist in his edu- cation at Wilberforce. ‘The quadren- nial meeting of this body will be held in Chicago, Il, November, 1911, at which time officers will be elected for the next four years, following the time of the assembly. Officers, Mrs. M. F. Handy, president; Mrs. Rosa Johnson, Cleveland, first vice; Mrs. Grace. Gfler, Pittsburg, second vice: Mrs. Dovie Clarke, Wilberforce, re: cording secretary; Mrs. M. S.

THOSE CHATTANOOGA LYNCHERS Jailed Because They Defied the U. 8. ‘Supreme Court—Six Behind cre (Gare, Washington, D. C.—For the first time in its history, the U. S., supreme court Monday imposed prison sen: tences for acts of contempt against that august body, in the case growing out of the lynching of Ed Johnson, an Afro-American who was charged with assault, at Chattanooga, Tenn, in 1906, The act of contempt charged Was the failure of officials to prevent the lynehing and participation therein by citizens, after the court had an- nounced its intention to review the case. The Chattanooga mob of white brutes was angry because a stay of execution, which was to have taken place the day following the night of the lynching, had been secured and by two Afro-American attorneys who were at once exiled from that city. ‘Those sentenced: Joseph W. Shipp, exsheriff, 90 days. Jeremiah Gibson, ex-jailer, 60 days. Luther Williams, citizen, 90 days, Nick Nolan, citizen, 90 days. Henry Padgett, citizen, 60 days. William Mayes, citizen, 60 days. ‘The present contempt’ proceedings were practically without precedent. ‘They originated in the court's dects: ion in March, 1906, to consider the ap. peal of Johnson from a verdict of the ‘Tennessee courts holding him guilty and sentencing him to be hanged on a charge of assault. The night after the determination of the supreme court to review the proceedings was wired to Chattanooga, a mob stormed the jail, took the prisoner ont and lynehed ‘him, ‘This is the best blow ever given lynching by the federal courts of this country.

Our people of this city and county have never a deputy sheriff, nor have titilled an appointment from Sheriff Hirstus, who refused to give us the recognition promised.

Ever ready to assist those in trouble, he walks over to see what was the trouble, and beheld Mr. William Carroll with the stub of his last match in his hand and tears in his eyes.

It is too early yet to describe the miracle pies of 1909, but last year's—and last year was not an extraordinary good year—were like an increase in salary and a present from home arriving on the day when one's conscience was behaving itself—Boston Globe. Had a Sure Thing An individual, well known on the Berlin Bourse for his wit, one morning wagered that he would ask the same question of 50 different persons and receive the same answer from each. The wit went to first one and then another, until he had reached the number of 50. And this is how he won the bet: He whispered half audibly to each: "I say, have you heard that Meyer has failed?" "What Meyer?" queried the whole 50, one after another, and it, was decided that the bet had been fairly won. Size of North Pole.

But no sooner was he dead than appeared "Jo Miller's Jests; or, The Wits' Vade Mecum," compiled by "Elijah Jenkins, Esq;" that is to say, forged by John Mottley, the Jacobite, just as, years before, Hobson's "Polly Peachum" and Ben Jonson's "Jests" had been forged. His Last Call. The cuckoo clock had announced the hour when graveyards yawn and specters white hold carnival, and still he lingered. "My dear girl," he whispered, reaching for his hat and cane. "I am dreadfully shy of that bulldog. Would you mind see me to the door?" "With the greatest of pleasure," exclaimed the weary girl, "with the greatest of pleasure." And never again did he darken that doorway. Where It Goes. "That man made an immense fortune out of a simple little invention." "Indeed! What did he invent?" "Invent! Nothing, you dub!

SKIN TROUBLES CURED Two Little Girls Had Eczema Very Badly—In One Case Hair's Came Out and Left Bare Patches. Cuticura Met with Great Success. "I have two little girls who have been troubled very badly with eczema. One of them had it on her lower limbs. I did everything that I could hear of for her, but it did not give in until warm weather, when it seemingly subsided. The next winter when it became cold the eczema started again and also in her head where it would take the hair out and leave bare patches.

I began using Cuticura Remedies, and by the time the second lot was used their skin was soft and me, Sept. 21, '08." Potter Drug & Chem. Corp., Sole Props., Boston. The Dollar Sign When it came time for Mrs. Bluffer to pack her trunk and depart from the resort where she had spent many pleasant days, where she had been the cynosure of all eyes, where she had flirted and gossiped (and been gossiped about), she visited the proprietor. "I've just received a check for $50 from my husband," she told him. "You will honor it, won't you?" The proprietor bowed and rubbed his hands. "By dear Mrs. Bluffer," he ventured. "I will not only honor it, but will fall down and worship it." CUT THIS OUT. Recipe That Breaks a Cold in a Day and Cures Any Curable Cough.

The ladies devoted to reform were in session. "I believe," said one, "that only good men should be permitted to marry." "But," interposed a second, "would not such a radical policy be promotive of race suicide?" On the instant they perceived that they had tackled a real problem. Deafness Cannot Be Cured Her Sad Finish. "Did you ever know a girl to die for love?" "Yes." "Did she just fade away and die because some man deserted her?"

Mind Over Matter "Much may be done," said the Acute Observer, "by an authoritative voice. Now, if a man says to a dog: 'Come here! with a note of absolute authority in his voice, the dog comes immediately.'" "Yes," said the Traveler, "I've noticed it.

The father had consumed ten while the boy was eating one, and then both reached for the one remaining. "Son," pleaded the farmer, "you wouldn't take the last apple dumplings from your poor sick pa, would you?"—Success Magazine. The Wizard of Horticulture Hon.
