New Greek Courage (Photograph by Underwood & Underwood, New York.) THIS hair dressing is arranged after the manner of the old Greek dressings, the front hair softly waved and drawn back to the crown of the head, where the bunch of tiny curls, natural or false, are bound into a knot with a band of metal ribbon. Device That Goes Far Toward Making Life Easier Is Described Below. Among the latest ideas for making life easier are frills ready to be adjusted, with a few minutes' work, to the underclothing or the flap of a blouse or pillow cases. These frills can be had in various designs, some of them the material hemsstitched or with lines of drawn work edged with torchon face; others with tiny lines of beading, again finished with embroidery or feather-stitching. For infants' clothes these frillings come with tiny edges, and there are quiet openwork effects on heavy linen used for pillow slips. The method of adjusting is to buy them, gathered into a feathersstitched band, or one edge of the material has a loosely woven thread, and all the worker need do is to draw the thread to the desired fulness. VISITING DRESS. Cinder gray cashmere would look well made up in this simple but smart way: the tunic is semifitting and is drawn in above the waist by a wide band which reaches to the sides of front. this is lightly braided, so also are the edges of underskirt and over sleeves, while a strip is taken across the lower edge of yoke, which is of tucked chiffon to match undersleeves. Hat of straw swathed in tulle and trimmed with bunches of small pink flowers. Materials required: 6 yards cashmere, 1½ yards tucked chiffon, 3 dozen yards braid. Fancy Net Turbans. The flowered turban has given way to a large one made of coarse fancy net. The same kind is used that we have had for gown drapery during the winter. Brilliant colors are seen, such as purple, the new vivid dark blue, black, white with a black spot and chantecler red. The turbans are an artistic mass of this net twisted into puffs and loops and ends. The latter are wired in order to keep their shape and give the turban character. THE GAZETTE Some Things That Nurse or Friend of Patient could Be Sure to Know in Mind. Long hair should be divided into two plats the first day of an illness. This makes combing easier on patient and nurse. In high fever an ice cap is equally beneficial to the hair and to temperature. When a patient likes to have her head rubbed, if a bit of vaseline is put on tips of fingers it will keep the hair from getting dry and brittle. This must be carefully done if bed linen is not to suffer. Where hair has matted in illness, do not attack it with a comb or pull it apart. Thread with the fingers, beginning at the ends of hair and working up. Shake the hair often. Do a little at a time, and stop at first signs of exhaustion in the patient. Hair combing in a weakened state has been known to cause collapse. With convalescence begin a course of treatment for the hair. This should be professional, but much can be done at home with vaseline rubbed well into the scalp or a good tonic, such as bay rum and quinine, or crude petroleum. Only permit hair to be cut as a last resort. It is rarely done in even after typhoid fever. Do not be armed at increasing thinness. Keep up massage, and new hair will quickly follow. Hair after illness spills badly. A thorough singeing is one of the first things to do. As hair is delicate and brittle after illness, avoid overheating with false hair. Wear it only when necessary. If you wish your scalp to quickly regain a normal, healthy condition. The Summer Coat. One of the striking features of the summer coat is its lining. Of soft foulard in some of the most attractive designs, it generally contributes to a striking whole. White serge is still in high favor; oyster gray and tan linens are delightfully heavy in the new basket weavers, while woolen materials are loose enough to afford comfort without an overburdening warmth. The summer coat is ornamented with a marine collar or with long revers that cross and button quite far down. Metal and tortoiseshell buttons are used on the summer coat and huge pockets are not lacking. Keep in mind these points when planning this very necessary article in your summer outfit. A Curious Jewelled Claspo. A curious jeweled clasp which can be taken off and put on different pairs of slippers is being shown at the stores. The clasp intended for a Louis Quinze heel has a metal bottom from which rise jeweled spikes which clasp into the heel. The metal gives a faint clicking sound at each step and the spikes ornament the satin or leather heel admirably. It is one of the latest frivolities which find favor with a certain set. Chantecler Stationery. The chantecler stationery is decked deely prettier than some of the millin- ery named after this famous play. The correspondence cards, with en- velopes to match are, especially charming. The tone of the paper is of a rich cream, like the tint of a pale- brown egg, gilt-edged and decorated in the right-hand corner. The flaps of the envelopes have scarlet roost- ers. Hair and Illness. A long illness no longer means sacrificed hair. Except in cases of brain fever hair is rarely shared; even thinning and shedding are overcome quickly.

The time has come for every Afro-American and for every church society and newspaper among us to protest against the passage of the Boutell amendment, and to do so at once! This inquisitions measure will not pass congress if the voters of the race in the north, east and west will write their congressmen and senators immediately asking them to vote against the Boutell bill (known as Bill H.

CRITCHLOW AGAIN IN TROUBLE. Former Dayton Man and Ex-Convict Is Denounced as Faker by Virginia Authorities. (Richmond, Va., Planet.) Richmond, Va., Planet. According to information which reached here Tuesday from Richmond, Va., Walter G. Critchlow, former president of the International Labor Union, of which he was the founder and to which colored people chiefly belong, and who, about a year ago completed a term in the Ohio penitentiary, having been convicted on the charge of using the mails to promote a fraudulent scheme, has been denounced as a laker in that city. Colonel Joseph Button of the Virginia insurance department has set about to instruct the affairs of Critchlow, who has been in full insuring advertisements in certain Negro papers of the state, asking for agents. Critchlow was stopped by the department last winter after he had swindled many Negroes in several cities of Virginia, he said, the insurance company of Ohio wrote the department in Virginia, dequeuing Critchlow as a "hold face." As a result of this communication, the department has made the statement that Critchlow is a swindler and declared that his concern had to right to do business in that state. He also wanted agents to have nothing to do with Critchlow, and that they would thus stay out of the lands of the law. It will be recalled that Critchlow was apprehended about 18 months ago and convicted of using the mails fraudulently. He was sentenced by the late Judge Thompson of the United States court at Cincinnati after one of the severer assignments that had ever been administered any one convicted in his court. During his incarceration Critchlow repudiated his wife, refusing to allow her to visit him, and after his release married his stenogram he. He again resumed his former tacies, tendering, quite adchapter banquet to the members of the international labor Union and other employees. Subsequently he left Dayton and nothing had been heard of him until his present escapade in Virginia. Dayton, Journal, May 11, 1910. SEPARATE Y. M. C. A. S There may be some excuse for the separate Young Men's Christian Association in the south, where the line between the races is distinctly drawn, but in the north there is no justification for their existence. The Afro-Americans who are urging the establishment of separate Y. M. C. A.'s are making a grave mistake. They should consider the question from every angle before using their influence in favor of a movement which will be far-reaching in its effects and may come back some time in the shape of discriminating and repressive laws and finally in the withdrawal of all civil and political rights from the race. There are in the United States a few individuals who have proved themselves to be true Christians, but the alleged Caucasian Christian church in this country justified slavery and has never taken a decided Y. M. C. A. people in many northern communities are endeavoring to segregate the Afro-American, thus proving that Afro-Americans think that an organization *Similar to* the Y. M. C. A. is needed to form one and call it by some other name. Under no circumstances should they have any connection with the Central Y. M. C. A. which as a rule in cities where there are colored branches admits to the central organization members from all branches except the colored branch. To become a branch of an organization which discriminates is to admit inferiority. That Afro-Americans should become parties to the segregation plan is inconceivable, yet many are doing so. THE APPEAL believes that these members of the race, who are in many instances intelligent people, are misguided and after they have carefully considered thematter and see the perils the plan entails will about face and refuse to segregate themselves. Better call it halt now. Unless segregation is stopped it will continue to grow and it is not impossible that within ten years the ginkgo car will call into Chicago. Men and women of the race consider well your actions. *S. F. Paul (Nice) Appeal.* Wallace-Clark Marr. c.c. Sardusky, C. A. "Courier" party were guests of Mr. James. French after the theater the 18th.

C.,—becoming that the local committee of the World's Sunday School Convention had used race prejudice as an excuse to bar them from participation in the parade, outrages of Washington were up in arms last week against the rank injustice to the race and true Christianity. They addressed an open letter to the convention, branding the ruling of the local committee "unChristian race prejudice" and demanding satisfaction. They wanted our churches not only represented in the convention, but in the big religious groups hold one afternoon. The grade held executive committee numbering prominent members from every part of the world; opposed the local committee of which P. H. Pristoe is chairman, and insisted in vain that the shameless, inaccessible and unChristianlike discrimination cease at once. The local committee was in full charge, and it was too late to dislodge it. In a newspaper interview Rev. Dr. Wilbur L. Thirkield, *Whitehill*, president of Howard university, this city, made what he termed "a plea for Christian unity and universal race cooperation in the movement to bring all people of the world into Christ's kingdom through the World's Sunday School association. The question is pardy civil aid religious, and not social" said Dr. Thirkield. "An impressive feature of the program is the great occasion, marching along our streets as an illustration of the bigness and world embracing character of this great Sunday school." The people world are here represented, and all find a place but one. The Afro-American here in the District of Columbia is shut out. And this of set purpose by the local committee in charge, although the representatives of the colored churches have made earnest plea for representation. Other colored races are assigned places in the procession that went forth singing in the name of our common Christ. Onward, Christian soldiers. Marching as to war. (ter the conquest of all races of the whole world for Christ.) "So they went, singing under the dome of the Capitol. Yet here in the center of this republic representatives of the Sunday school movement "among a people comprising every ninth south in the United States, and representatives of Christian churches and Sunday schools comprising millions of members, are sent out from a place in a parade that is designed to send forth the solidarity and greatness, the unity and the Christian spirit of this movement for the saving of all peoples in America, and the evangelization of the world for Christ." With scathing denunciation for the "marrow-worn whites" of Washington, a group of English laymen all delegates to the world's Sunday school conference—aroused a congregation in St. John's church to a high pitch of holiness. Sunday night, selling them local Afro-Americans had been treated in a manner to cause every Christmas in the world to harg his head with shame. The speakers declared the act of the local committee in according their color brethren from the ranks was worse than in Christian that in St. John's there was no race prejudice. In St. John's, and in the local community before the law and the in addition to the English society, two white American delegates, V. N. Hartheen of Boston and Lonnie Strober of Plymouth church, Brooklyn—smoke in vigorous opposition to the disgraceful local exhibition of race prejudice and emphasized the difference between the treatment the Afro-American receives in the North and in the South. The climax was reached when Zulu delegate, the Rev. John D. Dube, told the congregation he had broken bread with his British friends in London and New York restaurants, but had met with a consistent resentment to be served in Washington. He said both his British fellow delegates and himself had been humiliated by their experiences here, which were not only entirely unexpected but absolutely inexusable in a supposedly civilized and enlightened country. Good! Not Our Wilbur H. Jones Columbus, O.—The item in a local paper stating that a Wilbur Jones had killed his wife, had no reference to our Wilbur H. Jones, but doubts as to some "white" person by that name. --- AL PRACTICE DE L'AMERICA A VICIOUS ATTACK ON RACE WORKERS BY MEMBERS OF THE RACE FOR THE EDIFICATION OF "WHITES." Ought Never to Be Made in the "White" Press—Waiters, Barbers, Chauffeurs and Footmen Attacked and Their Positions Jeopardized as a Result. The following, a portion of an interview with a local Negro, one "Noomdy" Brasher, is the most harmful portion of a column article that appeared in last week Monday's Cleveland Daily leader and which certainly was condemned, and very properly, too, by about all who saw or heard of it: "We, the members of the Cleveland Association of Colored Men, know a number of individual cases here in the city, where a colored man has lost his job because he did not take sufficient interest in his work, was negligent or made some mistake in conduct. We want to give our people a better chance and for this purpose will provide these lectures. "The situation are being displaced in front of the big down-town stores because they make 'social centers' of their working places, the barbers are losing out for the same reason and because they do not put brains in their work. Waiters Are Losing. "The waiters are losing because they are not tidy in appearance and thoughtful in the execution of their duties. It was said that the Caterers' association should be made a school to instruct and advise waiters of the importance and necessity of being progressive and clean. "The chauffeurs are in danger of being displaced because too many of the automobile drivers use the cars of their employers for joy rides along Central avenue and East 6th street, taking girls, drinking men and others burglaring through the thoroughfares." On the entire Leader article, including the above except, we commented as follows: in our last issue: Most of that publication the last Monday's Cleveland Leader was a very unfortunate thing. Strange that some of our people never learn that parading in the daily newspapers the weakness of individual members of the race taz it they were racial weaknesses that are common to members of all classes of people, always does our people more harm than all others combined. And why do they do it? That a few nondescript and in the main "westerday" jimner Negroes may bask in the finelight of a little cheap daily newspaper motory. Our local waiters, barbers, footmen and chaufs ought to get together and chase that rabble of color out of town. They lack not only discretion and a little good common sense, but are absolutely dangerously harmful to the progress of the large and hard-working class of our people in this city. Their output, in the main, in last Monday's Leader reminds us very forebely of that portion of Dr. Booker T. Washington's lecture, a year or so ago, in Nashville, Memphis, Temu, in which he took occasion directly or indirectly, according to common report, to warn the people who employed Negro cooks, of those of the latter who were carrying away food, etc., through their employees' back doors. Shame, O shame, Good Lord, how long O how long must a long-suffiting people be punished by jimner Negroes? What we wish to emphasize at this time and reiterate is that such criticism and comment as is contained in the Leader excerpt, reprinted above, may be all right, if correct, in race publications, but are most certainly, ALL WRONG IN THE "WHITE" PRESS for reasons obvious and others stated in The Gazette editorial published last week and reprinted above in this article. "There is a time and a place for all things" is an old and very vrugsaying that is peculiarly applicable in this instance when it comes to making public such criticism and comment. Then, too, there is not near so much ground for the invidious Brasher criticism as he would have one believeth. When he is older, knows more, and is a resident of Cleveland longer, he will be in a better position to state facts to the barbers, warriors, doctors and charities. More: he is hardly the person from any viewpoint to be pushing into the daily press in criticism of anybody or anything in this community where there are many of those very same employees in world critise, who have and success in their various associations. More than can be said of some of these would be critics. The "Alleged Star" Was Costly. Lorian O.

For two extremes, read our Lorain and Lexington letters in this paper. The first is very encouraging indeed. We want all of our patrons to read carefully, thoughtfully, the St. Paul Appeal's excellent editorial on SEP-ARATE Y. M. C. A.'s, republished in the Gazette today. It is a full and complete endorsement of our stand on "fimcrow" Y. M. C. A.'s, and is "the whole truth, and nothing but the truth." Proper self and race respect will make it impossible for any manly or womanly member of the race to advocate any such harmful and unnecessary discrimination. It develops that the local (Washington, D. C) committee in charge of the World's Sunday School Association's national convention parade, held in that city last week, was wholly responsible for the discrimination against Afro-Americans barred out of the demonstration. President Thirkield's denunciation of the committee's low and contemptible act was a credit to him and Howard university. The English delegates to the convention also denounced bitterly the committee's most repreensible action, using the leading pulpits and daily papers of Washington, D. C., in which to do so. GOOD! Every one of our contemporaries, particularly those published in the Southland, should republish the article-expose on that man Critchlow ("white"), to be found elsewhere in this paper. We are indebted to the Richmond (Va.) Planet for it, and it, in turn, is indebted for it to the Dayton (O.) Journal, a daily publication in the city which the man has made his headquarters for several years. This exposure has been a little late coming, but as it is timely, though late, spread the news and help protect our working people, particularly, from whom he has reaped a rich harvest of coin for some years with his various organized labor and insurance organization schemes. Those of our contemporaries that are carrying his advertisements and a number of them are doing so, should drop them from their columns at once. Current rumor has it that already two of our chauffeurs have lost their positions as a result of that fool Leader publication of two weeks ago Monday; and that owners of machines now have detectives up Central Av, watching Afro-American chauffeurs. Another result has been to drive the chauffeurs from our restaurants, etc. up Central Av, to places conducted by "white" persons in other parts of the city. The Afro-American footmen on Euclid Av, claim that their bosses have either kept close watch on them or have had others do so, constantly, since the publication of that fool article. Some of our waiters and barbers have made somewhat similar complaints to The Gazette, and there are more to be heard from. Much harm has been done and absolutely no good, by the publication of that miserable article in the daily press of the city. Shame! O, SHAME!! Innocent wives and children of the men who have lost and will lose their situations, are the ones who suffer most. And who was benefited? The effort to "smooth over" the refusal to permit Afro-Americans to march in the World's Sunday School convention parade at Washington, D.C., last week by making Dr. Booker T. Washington an honorary life member of the World's Sunday School Association, is as disingesting and sickening as the alleged Christianity those responsible for the refusal profess. It is a base libel, upon true Christianity if there is anything that has happened lately that affords a better exposition of the so-called American "Christianity" than this latest color-line Washington D. C., episode, we have failed to notice it. And if Dr. Booker T. Washington was the man and leader, he is her heralded as being, he would possibly but firmly refuse the very questionable "honor" of becoming an honorary or any other kind of a member of such an organization. There is, however, no likelihood of his doing any such manly thing; and that by the way illustrates to a sheen why he and his kind can never lead the intelligent and best men and women of this race of ours, all of whom have proper self and race respect. Fine (?) "evangelical movements" are those "national meetings" referred to in our Chicago letter elsewhere in this paper, and it cook just one good man, the Rev. Dr. M. M. Parkhurst of Chicago, but a few minutes to hold them up to the condemnation of the whole world of farmed people, Christians and others. All such organizations as the World's Sunday School Association and the national Evangelical movements are but a menace to the true Christian religion which we are thoroughly satisfied God will take care of in his own sweet way. As for prejudice and discrimination of all kids against our people, He expects us to do all in our power to eradicate in eradicating them. Prayer alone will not do, as God Almighty does not do for any people that which they ought to and are able to do for themselves. This is right and proper. MASCHKE AND INGRATITUDE. Johnson-Dorsey.

Parkhurst Tells Methodist Pastors Afro-Americans Were Slighted at Recent Congress —Resolutions Were Tabled After a Storm. Chicago, IL. The exclusion of our people from recent national evangelical meetings, such as the organizing of the national congress of the layman's missionary congress held here, was deplored by the Rev. M. M. Parkhurst before the weekly meeting of the Methodist ministers recently. He pointed out that our church workers had been informed that they were not wanted and that of the 1,000 preachers present from the South, not one of our religious organizations' was represented. "This permitting Afro-Americans to believe that they were not wanted amounted to by digging deeper the gulf between the 'whites' and the colored people of this country," he said. "There were about 1,000 delegates from south of the Ohio river and did not want Afro-Americans who were enclosed in the Secretary White of the convention that this was what it amounted to and he said; 'We didn't say they shouldn't come.' Afro-Americans furnish one-ninth of the church members in this country, and it seems to me rather strange that out of the 4,000 delegates at the layman's congress here not one was to be found. I have here a resolution which I should like to endorse. I do not refuse no criticism, only expresses regret that there were none present. I should like to have this expression of regret originate in Chicago." After a heated discussion the resolution was laid on the table. A "Christian" church-that does not want Afro-Americans, is not a church of Christ. That's a sure thing. And a state and an institution. Lynching is not a government of law and order." That's another sure thing. DEDICATORY SERVICES. A Christian Jew Speaks — Personal Social and Church Notes. Stoneboyville, O.-Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Mathews attended the funeral of their uncle, Rev. J. W.

The nation that talk to honor the man who 'tays down his life for his country as a lower lays a race at the feet of his beloved," must be a country destitute of the true kinds of patriotism and of unimpeding traditions. The sun shines on countries where the millions dwell in code of honor and poverty, and if a war is fought the few go forth to fight the battle of the millions, and when the depleted handful of warriors comes back from the battlefield, millions there are who do not even know that there was a war and that their countrymen fought and died in their behalf. But in this country, ever since it was a country, whether the war has been fought on battlefields close by our own domestic IN H REMEM X X X and which cost appallingly in blood and treasure. In this period of nearly a half a century the country has traveled far in the direction of material and intellectual development. It has many new conditions and issues and the men of the war time have almost all passed from the scene of action. A new generation is now carrying the national burden, inspired by the example set in the sixties by those who went forth to serve with arms the cause they espoused. But however great the changes that have taken place, however long ago the days when the air was filled with the reverberations of gang and the shock of armies, on one day of each year the men, women and children of the present turn with one accord to the graves of those who fell in the fight of who have fallen since in the civic ranks wearing the ambulances of their honorable service, and give evidence that their memories remain "Canada Smith's" Unique Explanation for Falling in Line Wrapped in a Porsche. A funny incident of the war is reported by a veteran, living at Huntington, who served in Company D, One Hundred and Twenty-fourth Ohio. His company had trumped all over east Tennessee, taking the battle of cavalry, as part of the fourth corps after the battle of Mission Ridge in 1854. In the company was an Irishman from Canada known as "Cinnamon Smith," who settled down one day to wash his clothes. He had them all in the toilet, and was wrapped only in his clothes when "being" sounded. He graphed his gun and was in line. When the colonel discovered the Irish company to bring with him to the company an exhumation of Cinnamon Smith.

The order is retroactive and became effective May 1. It is estimated that the company will add from $6,000,000 to $10,000,000 to its annual pay roll expense. The new scale affects employees engaged in the company's works and factories, but the office men will not be benefited by this increase. Most of the employees who will get the increase are laborers, and the advance applies to all the subsidiary companies in the United States. The company has appraximately 10,000 employees. The Standard is one of the very few big concerns of this country which has never had a strike among its employees.

The midway crossing was laid in form mainly, the women of the houses nearest doing this. The balconies of one of these houses were always charitably dressed for the day. The text was laid in cloth of gold of muskard, and the third and last was a broad ribbon of solid finger-menus with a border of green, and at each end a tall arrangement of blue and purple four-dells, making a sort of gateway.

This is the spirit of Memorial day; the occasion is apart for the perpetuation of the names of those who freely offered themselves to their country in its time of need.

The flowers shown in the gallery day are foliens of gold but of gloomy that the man who are thus remembered were in their day home in their concept of duty. The enclosure of orators at the many places of informant is designed to convey to those who attend the real lesson of patriotism, which is that the national existence depends not alone upon those who march forth to war, but upon those who lead upright lives in time of peace, who respect the law, who arisen to the principles upon which this government is founded and who perform the duties of citizenship in the spirit of devotion which led men to love their homes and suffer privation and distress and death in order that the nation might survive. chimes of gilts wild him!

HIRSTIUS GUILTY SAY BOTH OF THEM CITY CLERK WITT AND DIRECTOR SPRINGBORN GIVE INSIDE INFORMATION. WHY STREET WAS NOT OPENED The Gazette Was Right In Its Contention, as Usual—Our Refusal to Support Hirstius and Others. Fully Justified—Some Interesting Letters. As is well-known The Gazette was bitterly opposed to the election of Sheriff Gus Hirstius, because when a member of the council (from the 12th ward) Hirstius refused to permit a street to be cut through from Central Perry street to Cedar avenue, between Perry street and Greenwood street, because a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so "because colored people would come through" the street from Cedar avenue and "peer into their windows." He withdrew an ordinance which he introduced in the council (authorizing the proper city authorities to cut the street through) at the request of the above mentioned preju dlied Cedar avenue residents. When he was re-elected to the council, Hirstus, a second time, promised to have the street cut through, but steadily refused to keep his promise. The following is pertinent and self-explanatory. Read the letters carefully and thoughtfully: Mr. Beter Cleveland, N.Y., D.D. Mr. Beter Sir: Just before election, Canadian firstman made a statement in a political meeting to the effect that he had passed an ordinance, resolution or something in the city council, providing for cutting a street through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between East Twenty-second and East Twenty-seventh streets, opposite Skod street, or in that vicinity, which he claims.4 though passed"by the council in July last the work of cutting the street through) has been held up ever since by Director Springborn or some one else connected with the city got them. How much, if any, truth is there in his claim? Last year or the year before the same individual introduced an ordinance, a solution or something in the council providing for cutting a street through in the same vicinity. Will you tell me whether or not the resolution, ordinance or whatever it was, referred to, was ever passed by the council, and why the street was not cut, along with the above requests at your earliest opportunity you will greatly oblige me. Yours truly. Nov. 23, 1908 Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette. Dear Sirs: On July 9, 1906, resolution, No. 5238 by Mr. Hirstius provided for the opening of East Twenty-fifth place to Cedar avenue. It passed the same month on the 24th day. The improvement was not made for the reason that Mr. Hirstius did not want it. His reasons for not wanting it, I have been informed, were and possibly are that the people in the immediate vicinity of the proposed opening did not want people of your race to come through. In May of the present year there was a resolution introduced, and passed in June, looking for the making of a new street between Central and Cedar avenues about opposite street. This improvement was never made for the reason that the money in possession of the city through the sale of bonds was for the opening of dead street streets and not the making of new streets. It is the custom of the administration to defer to the wishes of councilmen for ward improvements, and I feel sure that the only season the improvement at East Twenty-fifth place was not made was because of race prejudice which Mr. Hiristius listened to. Would suggest that you call up Mr. Springborn and get from him a confirmation of what I have given to you as a rumor. Very truly yours; Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette. —Dear Sir, Answering your favor of the 4th inst., with reference to the enclosed letter from Mr. Witt, would say that the facts are as Mr. Witt states, and had Mr. Hirstius desired to have East Twenty-fifth place opened through to Cedar avenue, it would have been done long ago. At the time it was proposed to make this opening Mr. Hirstius invited me to meet with him a committee at the close of one of the council meetings. The committee represented the property owners and residents on Cedar avenue, where the improvement was intended to be made. They protested against its opening, and the result was that Mr. Hirstius finally agreed not to have it made. AND ASKED ME TO HAVE NO FURTHER STEPS TAKEN IN THE MATTER. It was not until recently that the case which we had started in court to condemn the property was dismissed. We have always made it a rule to act in accordance with the wishes of the councilman representing the ward in which improvements of this kind are to be made. It therefore seems that MR. HIRSTIUS ALONE IS TO BLAME FOR NOT HAVING THE STREET OPENED. Yours very truly. In China, moon worship still exists and the Chinese say that the man in the moon arranges marriages and ties together with an invisible silken cord the youths and maidens whom he intends to unite; he is evidently the creator of the honeymoon.

When the British square at the battle of Abu Klaa, in the Nubian desert, was penetrated by the dervishes, one of them attempted to spear a gunner who was in the act of ramming home a charge. The Briton brained the Sudanese, but the rammer head split on the man's hard skull. Next day the gunner was sent for. Mistaking the enemy, and knowing from experience that soldiers are charged for government property which they break, he led off with: "Please, sir, I'm very sorry I broke the rammer, but I never thought the follow's head could be so hard. I'll pay for the rammer so as to hear no more of the case." "Yaller." Some soaps are so yellow that no word describes them so well as the homely old expression "valler." They are made of cheap grease—often rancid—and lots of rosin is put in to give the soap weight. Add to this the strong caustic and you understand why your table linen rots into holes and your white garments come from the laundry with streaks of dirt ironed in them. Use Easy Task soap—the pure, white, guaranteed soap that is an enemy to dirt and a friend to fabrics. The Quoter. "You never quote poetry in your speeches?"

"Doc," Linn tells of an Englishman whom he knew in the early Kansas days who had come over from the British isles and had brought with him all of the mannequins, like "Donchner know," "Heg paddon," etc. "The Englishman was curled of his 'Donchner know' by a cowboy, whom he thus addressed: 'Iave the finest 'orse in the world,' donchner know.'" "No, blankety blank," replied the cowboy, "I don't know it, and I don't want you to set up a claim again that I do!" Some time later "Doc" was driving with the Englishman behind an ox team. John Bull was having a strenuous time with the oxen, but he worked hard. "Gee, now, Jerry," he sang out. But quickly he added: "Heg paddon, beg paddon, I mean haw!" Doc tells that when this story got around it helped to cut down the number of times that the Englishman used "beg paddon."—Kansas City Journal. Optimistic. "My wife is a very optimistic woman."

The Flannel Shirt Jake There used to be a favorite funny paper story about a man who bought a flannel shirt, and every time it was washed it had to be handed down to one of the children until at last the baby was wearing it. Washing flannels used to be a critical task, but now Easy Task soap is used, and it not only does not shrink the goods, but it leaves the garment soft and comfortable as elder-down. Easy Task soap is pure, white and sanitary. It Made No Difference. Congressman Ransdale of Louisiana, recently told a story of Alec Trimble, the valet and factotum of a physician in New Orleans, who took a fancy to one of the summer shirts of his master, and finally went and bought one exactly like it. He showed it to his mistress, who said that he had done wrong, as the two shirts might get mixed in the washing; and Alec answered: "It'd make no difference, missus, 'cause day's both alike in size an' price."

For the Critics Creston *Clark*, whose untimely death at Asheville robbed America of a serious and capable actor, was somewhat impatient of criticism. To a Philadelphia critic he once said: "You chaps are unwilling to accept a man for what he is. You want to change him to your own taste. But each of you has a different taste. To whose inclination, then, is he to bend?" "No, no! Take the artist for what he is. That is the right critical attitude.

Williams, Montrealir, N. J., and after shaking hands astonished the justice by saying: "I'm here to redeem that counterfeit $10 bill I passed on you. Two years ago I called on you with my girl and two witnesses and you married us. I handed you a $10 bill. I had a counterfeit in my pocketbook that I'd carried for several years. I never missed it until yesterday. Then I remembered that I'd accidentally handed you the bill." The caller produced a good $10 bill, but the justice refused to take it.
