THE HAT A TWENTY-SEVENTH The Grace of THE diaphanous picture hats in black or white, and the dead white of chip hats, makes a back ground upon which the fancy of the designer can pose beautiful. her "dreams of beauty, materials and colors." Many colored ostrich plumes have provided color combinations that vie with those in flowers. Ostrich, in two or three shades of one color, in two or three colors, and even in brilliant dashes of many colors in the same plume have been brought out and placed in the hands of millers throughout the country. It is the grace of plumes that endearls them to the heart of every designer of really beautiful millinery. It securely fastened by the stem to the body of the hat and left to its own sweet will (or curve, rather), and the law of gravity, the ostrich feather will dispose its length most gracefully. The trimmer cannot improve these lines which nature has drawn with the supply quill and dainty flumes. Blown by the wind the alry fibres move in graceful lines and come back to rest in the original positions that they held before they were disturbed. This is true of the "skeleton" willow ostrich (plumes with tied flumes) more especially. In trying the flumes to lengthen them, the manufacturer is able to introduce new colors or shades and produce blender Claim to Beauty Cannot Be Admitted Without the Possession of That Charm. The fascination of a clear, fair skin is recognized by every woman. No matter how regular her features, if the skin is blotched a woman loses all her power to attract. A good skin is an evidence of health, pure blood and right living. Powder will not cover an imperfect complexion, but will give it a mottled, livid appearance. A new preparation gives a soft, youthful bloom to the skin, will not show and is absolutely beneficial in every way. It contains no zinc, peroxide or white lead, and may be used on a baby—surely a perfect test of its purity. It will remove the tired, old expression engendered by pain or fatigue and the haggard look which the bustle of modern life will give to even a youthful face. Rarely indeed can a beautifier be found which cannot be detected, and the obvious use of cosmetics robs a woman of that air of refinement which makes a lady. A fresh, natural appearance acts willing admiration from either sex, and such is certainly to be obtained by the use of this dainty preparation. A new phase of the Napoleon hat, in white linen, lined with dark butcher-blue linen. As. in foulards and other silk materials the polka dot is a favorite in the mixtures of silk and cotton. THE GAZETTE harmony or contrast, as he deserves. These plumes are light in weight and very beautiful. In black they have a tendency to come to pieces. For some reason the black dye so affects the feather that moisture makes it shrink or "crawl" and the knots unite. But in colors they wear fairly well. Women have been buying fragile materials too long to dispense with miller plumes on that account. The natural ostrich plume with wide spread of fibers, slightly curled, should be selected if one is buying black. A good ostrich plume, moderately heavy, and made of uniformly good stock, will prove about the most lasting article and the most satisfactory in which the investor in millinery can put her money. Two plumes of this character will do service summer and winter. They are at their loveliest on the black picture hat for midsummer. This hat, of hemp or hair braid, with broad, sweeping flare of brim, through which the light filters, is the ideal model for a "stunning" effect. It is cool looking and always distinguished. It white with plumes in white and black it looks as chaste as frost, and throws a becoming reflection upon the skin of the wearer. The wide brims require this sweep of plumes in which trimmers delight. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. SOME OLD FRIENDS RETURN Materials Familiar to a Past Generation Have Again Become Popular Favorites. An Inspection of the materials for summer wear show that certain old-time, reliable materials have returned under new names, but our mothers will recognize their friends in the shape of the coarse linens that resemble "oatmeal"-cloth, hopsacking and the various basket weaves. The feature that commends itself to many women is the fact that the weave is so evident that it serves for decoration; and, therefore, requires very little other ornamentation. Simple braddling designs, or buttons are generally sufficient for the morning dress, while the square meshes of these coarse fabrics form excellent backgrounds upon which designs in cross-stitching (done with woolen or linen threads) may be added. When the individual touch of embroidery is added, these materials are excellent for afternoon wear, and although the design is more conventional than the trailing vines worked by the weavers of 50 years ago, the effect warrants the time expended in the construction. To Use India Print Blue and white India print cut into blas strips of varying width makes an excellent trimming for a child's dress. Here is something unique and yet beautiful, that will not fade and is by no means too old-looking for a little girl. India print is an altogether desirable and durable stuff in color and quality, and can be used on fine or coarse white linen without the least danger of the colors spreading into the white surface. Buttons covered with the print will add style and then, too, the end of material you have left will do for a band round the dark blue or white straw hat. Biscuit Color Liked. Biscuit color is in great demand. Of course, it is perishable, but dear to the heart of woman. When this shade forms a background for a cross-bar of old rose in a thin line it is fascinating. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. STRIKES BACK ONE OF OUR PASTORS IN RIGHTEOUS DEFENSE OF HIS CHURCH AND HIS MANY PEOPLE. Which is Unwarranted and Invidious Criticism of Our Local Churches— "Silent Visitor" Likened to Judac, Tillman, Vardaman and Dixon. Cleveland, O., June 1, 1910: Editor Gazette. Dear Sir: In the last issue of a local race paper, D. Brasher, who is posing as a race leader and a "silent visitor" to our cities of this city, boldly and wickedly criticised their form of worship, uttering these words, which appeared in large type: "The Baptists of Shiloh have old Old and Religious Services," and he himself heading this individual—and, I suppose, Christian gentleman—void of the necessary experience to make him suf- fiently intelligent to criticise any form of worship, attempts to criticise the services held in the church. He Is Not Contented. It was enough, and more than enough—the infamous attack made on our waiters, barbers, chauffeurs and footmen who are employed by the waiters," in a recent article that appeared in one of the morning papers of this city. He now steps into the stronghold of the race—the church—that has ever been the source of elevation to all people and all races, and forgets in his mad rush for notoriously that God has ordained for the foolishness of preaching to the world. He criticises the church from the pulpit to the door. Who must judge of the affairs of God?" The frog forgets that he came to the family of Tadpoles. In a new time that the well-thinking people who have no taint of insanity, brought on by someuden rise, brought on by someuden rise, speak for themselves and seize such men who are so dangerous to the welfare of a downtrodden people. What Can be His Object? What Can Be Is it that he has a mistaken idea as to what it will take to make him a leading spirit along his people? Is it that he is no ignorant of this one fact, the people whom he now so ignorantly critiques must make him but he desires to be in public life or blot his name from the pages of good citizenship and assign him a grave unmarked, there to rest eternally with the outcast? Is it that he has no sense of racial respect and knoweth not his ethical relation to his brother in black? Is it that he has misinterpreted books? T. Washington's statement merely for a few weeks ago before Colored Men's Association record to course to pursue to go into the good graces of his brother in white? If so I am sorry for our friend and brother for his days as numbered. The people of the church need not a carnal minded man to tutor them as to how they are to serve their Saviour and Christ. What Will Be Next? As it is now going, we will all be betrayed by the kiss of Judas and led away and burned at the stake for the sake of the mad rush of our unwise and thoughtless "leaders" for political honors. The church is satisfied to maintain on its own territory its own work—then not the other fellow's work—but the ministry of this city, will arise, not foolishly, not thoughtlessly, not for graft, nor greed, but for the good of our race, speak and denounce the words and actions of these dangerous men that among us in sheen's eyes, but inwardly they are wolves, then and not until then can we as a race amount His Indispensable Duty. What should he paramount in the mind of this "Silent Visitor" to our several churches? If it is the fact that he "leader," or one of the "leaders" of our people in this city, and that he is so very intelligent—far and above other men that were born in his day and generation with the same opportunities and conditions surrounding them, it should be his indispensable duty to step down intelligently and thoughtfully and try to train his brothers to the heights which he has climbed. "This is more Christ-like and better than criticism" Our citizens of Cleveland, and especially Shilah Baptist church, are not dependent upon this "Silent Visitor" for existence, but he himself is dependent on our citizens of this city for existence. A wise expression, but one which does not hold good in all cases, says that "Wisdom will keep silent while ignorance primenades." In this case it would be treason against the Master for true agents of the church to keep silent. Jilah of old the wicked out of the mountains and met the wicked Ahab, when he attempted to slander God's church. Why Answer This Attack? Because the future hope and what the race is today—the church—is being unjustly criticised and wickedly slandered. Not by its enemies, such as Shilah, Tillan and Dixson, but by one of our own sons, whom we had hoped would become a leading spirit among our people. He has said what Tillan with all his blackheartedness has never said about us. But "tools rush in where angels fear to trod." What a Shame! It is too disgraceful. The man in the other race would never have said the same publicly about his church and people. But our race ignorance can be excused, especially when we stomach to consider the source. Greece with its culture never thought of making such a speech against the church. Will the Public Stand for This? No, never! A halt must be called. The toosin has been sounded. The rabble must come down. A man must stay in his own territory, especially in this case. Would any other of our editors in the north or the south publish or offer such an article? No, no thrice NO! To begin with, they know the rock from whence they were born, and they have sense enough to that the pressure coming from the other way is decapital and forking for a soliflah end. They are face-lovers instead of a mad rush for publicity and motorway. You may himself, the same thing that has swelled the head will eventually burst it. First, is this "Silent Visitor" one of us? Second, He cannot join the other fellow, no matter what he does or says against his own race. Is wisdom to put on public exhibition the weaknesses of one's own family and then hope to live with his family? This I will not answer, but leave to the "Silent Visitor" the Solomon of Cleveland to answer. His own church and pastor, and others, have received deadly blow, but none have had the courage of the ir convictions. But Shilol, I know, will never stand for such a wicked attack. We may not have the sympathy or approval of all of the other churches or pastors, but all true reformers have at times to stand alone for the right. Last, but not least, we are aware of the truth of the old sayings: the calf enough rope and will soon hang himself, but the Baptists have always seen to it that his neck was broken. (REV.) EDW. H. SMITH, Pastor of Shilol Baptist Church. FOUR GIRLS FOR HIGH SCHOOL The Dedicatory Exercises — Other Church Notes—Personal Mention Riley-Watts Marriage— Concepts, Etc. Steubenville, O. Mrs. A.

Oberlin, O. - The rot in the daily papers of last week about the alleged trouble on account of the college's Afro-American athletes alleged refusal to participate in the Big Six meet at Columbus Saturday, unless they were partnered in the same hotel with the other Oberlin athletes, was nothing more nor less than a sensational craying "newspaper correspondent's" tempest in a teapot. Afro-Americans are always accommodated at the Nei House and other leading Columbus hotels. THE COUNTRY INN.

SOCIAL EQUALITY IN THE SOUTHLAND THE KIND THAT IS GENERALLY SOUGHT AND IS ALWAYS ACCEPTED "WITH PLEASURE." BISHOP PHILLIP'S BAD BREAK Receives $2,000 for a Clubbing—A "White" Chicken-Thief—Rev. Hamilton's $6,000 Charge—Two "White" Southern Students Expelled—Justice Ford's Hot "Roast"—Other Encouraging "Doings of the Race" Items. Wm. M. T. Forrester of Richmond, Va., one of our best-known Odd Fellows, is dead. Attogney A. L. Dalton of Cincinnati, is the Afro-American candidate for the Legislature in Hamilton County. Postmaster Thos. I. Keys of Ocean Springs, Miss., is soon, to be deposed by President Taft because he is an Afro-American. Mayor Reynard of Philadelphia, who barred the "Clansman" out of that city last season, has done the same thing again recently. Good! It is a rotten and bad play. Lleont, David J. Glimer of the Philippine Scouts, convicted by the court martial ("white"), some months ago, will lose "fifteen points" but hold his position in the U. S. Army. Logan Dowdy, "white," was recently sentenced to ten days in jail at Florence, S. C., and to pay a fine of $25, for stealing chickens from the hen roost of Will Boyd, an Afro-American. A jury in Judge Debehany's Court, New York City, recently awarded Joseph L. Hulbert, an Afro-American, a yearlong $2,600 against Policeman Daniel Nahil, the plaintiff charging in his position that the police officer blamed him. The Durham Textile Mills, the only Afro-American textile mill in North Carolina, has met with such success that it has doubled its capital and working quarters, and within a month will have in operation a number of new machines. Bishop C. H. Phillips, who contended biologically, that the Black Negroes in the C. M. E. church should elect a bishop at the recent August's general conference, we were down that in his office we came down in an Afro-American church. Good! Because they were found guilty in court of a breach of the peace in connection with an assault upon an Afro-American "white" students, preemptively, at the Kentucky State University, Lexington, have been forced by members of the student body to leave the institution. It was a graceful thing on the part of the World's Sunday School Convention to make Mr. Washington a life member, thereby placing him in the same class as Mr. Roosevelt, Mr. Bryant and others. It was a quiet forceful slap at the local prejudice laws. Washingtonians. - Baltimore (Md.) Afro-American. B. W. Eheln, a well-known horseman of Henderson, Ky, who shot and killed Martin White, a pretty Negro servant to the family, was fatally wounded by Mrs. Eheln at the Eheln May 26. Mrs. Eheln told the police that either she or her husband had to die. Jealousy caused the killing. More southern "social equality." Justice Ford of N. Y. City, recently angily dismissed with a seaching rebuke a southern-born juryman, who objected to serving with an Afro-American foronman on the jury. The Justice read a lesson to the prejudice objector on his unworthiness that will long serve him and his kind as a valuable warning to us as their conduct in New York courts of law.

John Wright Johnson, personal friend and co-worker with Harriet Beecher Stowe, in the campaign against slavery, died at his home in Fountain, City, Va. Mr. Johnson, who was ninety-one years old, is accredited with having assisted Eliza Harris of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to escape by means of the "underground Railroad" and to have given Mrs. Stowe the facts for her story. Rev. John P. Hamilton of Delaware, O., who until a short time ago, was a member of the North Ohio Conference of the A. M. E. Church, has created a sensation in ecclesiastical circles by charging that at least $50 has been misappropriated in the Third Episcopal District since September 29, 1854. The "seasonal" is made that named due to Wilberforce University, the Widows and Orphans' Fund, the Supernumerary Ministers' Fund, etc., have been used for other purposes than originally intended.—N. Y. Age. That white men and Negro women are privileged characters and can do as they please is very forcefully illustrated by the "joy ride" indulged in Houston the first of the women in party of four white and four Negro women outgoing in broad daylight. Mr. E. F. E. Poe autobiography know what to call women. On the other hand, however, Negro women are classed in the middle and eastern in the form of even intimate as-sociating together as did those white business men and Negro women of the underworld. Houston (Texas) Freeman. C. H. Lingers, white sanitary inspector of Plant City, Fla., went to Tempa, Fla., to force Arizona Jackson to be a petty mulatto girl, who had let her in recent weeks, to force her father and police powers to return to Plain City and live with him again, was shot and killed by her last week. He had made frequent trips in an inefficient effort to induce her to return, prior to his last one of last week. When officers went to the woman's house to arrest her and asked what she had done, she replied: "I have killed my darling." Lightsey was extremely jealous of her. Southern states have criminal laws against intermarriage. More southern "social equality." IN BAD SHAPE! The Metropolitan Mercantile and Refi lty Company of New York City Baltimore, Md., May 26—The Afro-American, published in this city, states with seeming authority, that a number of local stockholders of the Appalachian Mercenary and Realty Company, of New York through Attorney Robert G. I. Brown, filed a petition asking for a receiver or, the United States Court a few days ago. The petitioners claim that the company is fraudulently managed, that the assets are being squawked and that the concern is insolvent. And Ross signed an order giving the corporation ten days in which to file an answer. The company has a branch and a department in this city at 1637 Pennsylvania avenue. John H. Atkinson, president of the concern, arrived in the city from New York on Friday, and has been consulting the managers of the local concern and a number of stockholders. It is said that the company has floated upwards of $25,000 of its stock here, and it has not been paying any dividends. In fact, a number of the stockholders have for some time been selling their holdings. A discount Other rroubles have overtaken the company in the past, among them being the failure of its bank in Savannah, Ga.

Weekly Tribune Huame: Wanted Her 'Buried by His Side. Lexington, KY—Mrs. Mammary Pryor, probably the richest Afro-American woman in this state, recently died at her mansion, left her by the late Major E. G. Thomas, whose keepings (for the "master" Harvilla stud') she was for many years. The money he accumulated and laid to her will now go to the "white" children, to whom she left it.

Local Afro-Americans had no more to do with the nomination of Willie Green, the local Afro-American candidate for the Legislature, than did the editor of the Indianapolis Freeman The convict lease system of the south is a crime in itself. It is an outrage and a relic of barbarian without excuse or defense. That the states make money at the tremendous sacrifice of human life and morals, is no excuse but an additional reason why the system should be abandoned. The editor of the N. Y. Age walls "is the Negro to be sacrificed?" This, as a result of President Tatt's wholesale dismissal of Afro-American federal office-holders and his steadfast refusal to appoint any. The fact is, the Negro, as a federal office-holder, HAB BEEN SACRIFICED and the Age's editor knows it but does not seem to have sufficient courage to say so, editorially. Prof. W. E. B. DuBois has been elected permanent secretary of the National Negro Conference recently organized in New York City, where it has headquarters. The organization is headed by wealthy "white" friends of the race. Dr. DuBois will resign his professorship in Atlanta (Ga.) University.

Hershaw, editors, said, ediatorially: "It should be borne in mind that until now our people in both of these cities (Cleveland and Detroit) have been led by strong race patrons of the Gazette and the Detroit Informer are examples; in fact one may say they are the actual leaders themselves. "The race in Detroit yet stands firm, but alas for Cleveland! The self-sensing element of the race—who is regularity, and whose dispositions in general run toward liberal "tips" instead of to good wages; the Party of the Minimum, we call them—mouthing their way to the front as the race's spokesmen. After all it is not the seek as jobs for themselves." TRUTHI OUR MINISTER8. What in / the world is the matter with our Cleveland ministers, that with one or two notable exceptions, they show absolutely, apparently, no intention of trying to protect their churches and many of their hard working members, from vicious newspaper attacks that for weeks have been and still are common talk in the community? St. John's A. M. E. church, Cory M. E. chapel, M. Zion Congregational and Shiloh Baptist churches have all been subjected to the invidious comment and criticism, and we understand that Antioch Baptist church is the next one to be attacked, this week. What kind of a leader of his flock is that minister who sits supinely and by permits his church service and members to be held up to ridicule in this community by malicious, senseless and wholly called for criticism and comment by an incompetent? Where are the leading, loyal and many members of the various churches publicly attacked, that they permit their pastors to shirk so clear a duty to their people and church? What has "come over them" anyhow? Strange times indeed, are these? "THE BLACK BATTALION." Mr. Napoleon Marshall, the Afro-American attorney who assisted Col. Deggett, "white," to represent "The Black Battalion" before the recent "Brownsville" Court of Inquiry, at Washington, D. C., in an interview published last week made the following startling statement: "Things were see-sawing along (before the Court) and it was nearly Christmas, when unexpectedly one morning the Recorder (Howland) called me into his private office and made a startling proposition, to ask if Browne would cease to insist that Browne go on the stand, and if they would formally ad- mit that the alleged 'confession' of Conyers was genuine, though involuntary; the Court would be asked to stop proceedings and exonerate all Conyers from any recommending the restoration of all those exonerated to the service." This is a tremendously important statement and ought to be brought to the attention of the President and the congress, in as public a manner as possible. Then the entire country will get to know the fact, and that too, is necessary. Attorney Marshall has been entirely too slow in uncovering this all-important information, and the proper steps to do what is absolutely necessary (as indicated above) should be taken at once by one or all of our so-called national organizations. Little can be expected from Col. Daggett, loyal as he apparently was throughout his connection with the case, which was during and just prior to the sitting of the Court of Inquiry, because he is connected with the army as is Recorder Howland, and even the retired officers who were members of the Court of Inquiry. Of course, it is credible indeed that Attorney Marshall refused to accept the Recorder's proposition, but that is not the making of it. should be heralded the length and breadth of the land, and congress and the President bombarded with it, to the end that justice may finally be meted out to those all but martyrned former members of Companies B, C and D of the 25th U. S. Army, discharged without honor by President Roosevelt and hounded and persecuted ever since by him, President Taft and other prejudiced southern sympathizers all of whom do not live in Brownville, Texas. Attorney Marshall must take the lead in this newest effort, in the notorious "Brownsville Affray." We are satisfied that he has the ability, the necessary "amunition," and that he is best located to do it. Will he? that is the all-important question, right now.

Former Dayton Man and Ex-Convict Id Denounced as Faker by Virgina nia Authorities. (Bichmond, Va., Planeti) According to information which reached 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 patentary, having been convicted on the charge of fraudulent scheme, has been denounced as a faker in that city. Colonel Joseph Button of the Virginia insurance department has set about to frustrate the efforts of Critchlow, who has been again inserting advertisements in certain Negro papers of the state, to stop the shopper by the department last winter after he had swindled many Negroes in several cities of Virginia, he said. The insurance commissioners of Ohio wrote the department in Virginia, denouncing Critchlow as a bolder and more fraudulent, Colonel Button has made the statement that Critchlow is a swindler and declared that his concern had no right to do business in that state. He also warned agents to have nothing to do with Critchlow, and that they would thus stay out of the business 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 defendants had 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 stenographer. He again resumed his former tactics, tendering quite an elaborate banquet and machine for the Labor Union and their employees. Subsequently he left Dayton and nothing had been heard of him until his present escape in Virginia.—Dayton Journal, May 11, 1910. A Smallpox Plaque. London had a population of about two hundred and fifty thousand in 1740, in which year, there were 2,726 deaths from smallpox. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 4, 1910. TERRIBLE BLOW AT OUR RIGHTS! WOULD BE A PENDING CONGRESS AMENDMENT TO "THE MOR- RILL ACTS." Let Every Loyal Member of the Race, Particularly Those In the North, Send a Strong Protest to Their U. S. Senators and Members of Congress—Do This at Once! There is now in force in this country a law known as "The Morrill Acts" by which the government makes large donations of money each year to the several states and territories for education. In agriculture and the mechanical arts. The amendment of August 30, 1890, to the Morrill acts expressly provides that when but one institution in a state receives the whole appropriation, under said acts, for that state, that institution shall make no distinction on account of race or color in the admission of students. It also provides that it shall be lawful to divide the fund between two institutions—one for "white" and one for our students—in those states where the state law requires separate schools for the races. The appropriation from the United States treasury to each state was forty thousand dollars last year and will be forty-five thousand dollars next year and fifty thousand dollars each year ever after, for the support of instruction in agriculture and the mechanical arts. Fifty-one states and territories are now receiving grants of money under the Morrill acts. In thirty-five of these states, the Morrill acts grant is given to an institution which makes no distinction in the admission of students on account of race and color. In sixteen states the fund is divided between two schools—one for the education of our people and the other for the education of "whites." An amendment known as Bill H. It has been introduced in the house of representatives by Mr. Boutell to extend the benefit of the Morrill acts to the District of Columbia. The Boutell amendment contains a provision that will be far-reaching and disastrous in its effects upon the rights of our people, for it seeks to amend the Morrill acts as so to allow George Washington university—an institution which does not admit our students—to receive the entire appropriation for the District of Columbia. If this amendment passes it will set the seal of approval of congress upon discrimination against our people by educational institutions on account of race and color, and will open the way for the practice of this same evil by the thirty-one institutions receiving aid from the Morrill fund, that now refuse to discriminate against the admission of our students, because to do so would make it unlawful for them to participate in the benefits of the Morrill acts. In addition to the above mentioned evils, the Boutell amendment, if it passes, will result, eventually, in taking from our people all of the benefits they now receive under the Morrill acts. While the Boutell bill professes to amend the Morrill acts simply for the benefit of the District of Columbia, there is nothing to prevent that body from receiving anything at the request of any of the thirty-five "white" institutions now admitting our students; and if the benefits of the Morrill acts can be taken from our people in the District of Columbia in open violation of the law, why may not the same thing be done in any other state or territory? It is the duty of our people, everywhere, to resist this encroachment upon their rights at the very beginning, for when once the precedent has been established for the discrimination, by congress, against our citizens because of race and color, this work will go on until every right guaranteed the race under the constitution has been taken from it. 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 inquisitive 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. R. 24316 of the second session of the Sixty-first congress), or against any other bill which seeks to extend to George Washington university the entire benefits under the Morrill acts which may come to the District of Columbia. We suggest that each reader of The Gazette copy and send at once the following protest to their congressman and senator at Washington, D. C.: A PROTEST. To The Honorable ..... Senator (or Member of Congress), Washington, D. C. Dear Sir: The undersigned, a citizen and voter in your state (or district) protests against the passage by congress of the bill known as "H. R. 24316 of the second session of the Sixth-first congress," or any other bill giving to George Washington university the entire appropriation which goes to the District of Columbia under the Merrill acts, and respectfully ask that you vote against this or any similar measure when it comes up for consideration, because it will discriminate unjustly against my people and also establish a dangerous, precedent. I am Yours very respectfully. Let every Afro-American, every lodge, society and church we have send in this protest and do so at once, in order to save the race from unjust discrimination; and wicked, injurious and unlawful class legislation.

C.—General Lara, the chief mainstay of the Madritz land forces around Bluefields, Nicaragua, has been routed by the insurgents and the entire campaign against the city now appears doomed to failure.

The first fire threw Lara's troops into confusion, and the enemy between two charges and flight, the Estrada soldiers clambled from their ditches and charged into the frightened enemy. Fighting the fiercest sort ensued. It was knife against knife, gun butt against gun butt, until, beaten beyond hope of recovering their front of attack, the Madriz troops fed, leaving scores of dead and wounded.

It will be remembered that he prepares for the Park about two years ago but was stopped at the last moment almost by the management, at the request of the waiters' Union ("white") and others. Feeling against northerners is still present in the Ward. Ward, detective in the Whitty kidnapping case, who recently visited here, "I attended a soldiers' picnic while in Birmingham," Ward said Friday, "and when my companion called me by my first name in the presence of the ex-rebel, the atmosphere became as he had shot into it." Yes, what is the matter with all of our local pastors (except Rev. E. H. Smith), whose churches and people have been attacked in public, print that they sit SUPINELY by and permit it without a word, in defense? Do they mean by their word someone to demonize all the creature it would seem so, the case, then we advise the members of the several churches attacked to begin to cast about for new, better and more courageous pastors. GET MEN with at least enough ability and back-bone to stand boldly out in the open in defense of the organization and people who pay them money that buys them bread and butter. SOME of them are not cowards! Gentlemen ministers, show that they are MENI On Monday Mr. and Mrs. Garrett. A. Morgan will have the formal opening of their shirt-waist factory at 5502 Harlem avenue, near E. 51st street, formerly Wilton. In the new business underwriting reacts in the fact that it opens practically a new avenue of employment for those of our girls who are out of work and really want good paying employment. We can be in charge, is thoroughly benefited and is not only willing but anxious to teach our girls and young women who, when they become proficient, can easily find employment not only at the Morgan's factory in many other cities but also can be earned. The Gazette wants to see this enterprise thrive, and it ought to. There are en- truly too many of our idle girls to be seen daily on Central avenue alone, and we here and now appeal to their parents to put them to work. The Morgans present an opportunity, and the ones they are rare and can be multiplied only by our people's taking advantage of them fully and promptly. 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 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 number of organizations that themselves to be true Christians, but the alleged Caucasian Christian church in this country justified slavery and has never taken a decided stand for the rights of men. The Y. M. C. A. people in many northern communities are endeavoring to segregate the Afro-American, thus provoking the notation in the KRISTIAN organization. If Afro-Americans think that an organization similar to the Y. M. C. A. is needed in any particular community, they should form one and call it by some other name. Under no circumstances should they have connection with the Central Y. M. C. A., which has no official branches dmts to 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. THIS AFRAEL ORIGINAL race, who are in many instances intelligent people, are misguided and after they carefully considered the matter and see the perils the plan entails will about face and refuse to segregate themselves. Better call a halt now. Unless, segregation is stopped, will women be allowed to enter within ten years the jimcrow car will roll into Chicago, Men and women of the race, consider well your actions!—St. Paul (Minn.) Appeal. Ex-Representative Overstreet Dies. Indianapolis,印盟.Ind.—Jesse Overstreet, who represented this, the Seventh district of Indiana, in congress from 1896 to 1908, died at his home in this city after a long illness. Mr. Overstreet was chairman of the committee on postoffices and postroads during his service in congress and was the author of gold standard law passed in national monetary commission. He was secretary of the Republican congressional campaign committee of 1898 to 1804. Two years ago he was defeated by a Democrat. Quiet Still Rules in Trade. New York City—Bradstreet's says: Quiet still rules in trade and many lines of industry, while speculation, except in grain, seems in a waiting stage pending clearer views of ultimate crop and price outcome. Finally definitely new features of the week are the further improvement in spring and winter wheat and cotton, advises that corn planting will be finished by June 1, and, finally, sharp and heavy breaks in cereal prices, which indicate over-staying of the markets and of definite gains in crop conditions. Succ Lawler for $20,000 Libel. Washington, D. C.—Christopher P. Connolly of Collers Weekly instituted suit here against Oscar Lawler, assistant attorney general for the department of the interior, claiming $20,000 damages for alleged libel. While on the stand before the Ballinger-Pinchot investigating committee Lawler intimated that Connolly was guilty of cruelty and cowardice at the time of the sinking of the steamship Republic. Connolly says Lawler accused the wrong man. He asserts that he was not aboard the Republic. Outing Ends in Death. Oakland, Cal.-As a result of the head-on collision between two street cars on the California Electric railway near Leona Heights the motorman of one of the cars is dead and 50 passengers are suffering injuries that in some cases may result fatally. The collision occurred on a steep grade at a sharp turn in the road. Believing that he had a clear track, the motorman of the inbound car was coming down the grade at high speed when an outbound car, loaded with a picnic party, crashed into his car. All Men That Way.

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 Hirristus 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 district) permitted a street to be cut through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between Perry street and Greenwood street, because a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so "because colored people would come through" the street from Cedar avenue and "peer into their window." 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- diced Cedar avenue residents. When he was reelected 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-ophantory. Read the letters carefully and thoughtfully: Office of The Gazette Blackstone Building Cleveland, Nov. 19, 1908. Mr. Peter Witt, City Clerk—Dear Sir: Just before election, Councilman Hirius made a statement in a politicalliness to the vifth authority and passed an ordinance, resolution of something in the city council, providing for cutting a street through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between East Twenty-second and East Eighty-eight streets, opposed Street to the vifth authority and the claimed, though passed by the council in July last, (the work of cutting the street through) has been held up ever since by Director Springborn or someone else connected with the city government. Much, if any, truth is there in his claim? Last year or the year before the same individual introduced an ordinance, resolution or something in the council, providing for cutting a street through to the vifth authority, you tell me whether or not the resolution, ordinance or whatever it was, referred to, was ever passed by the council, and why the street was not cut through at that time? By complying with the above requests at your request, you will greatly oblige me. You're truly. HARRY C. SMITH, Editor The Gazette. Nov. 23, 1908. Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette.—Dear Sir! On July 9, 1996, resolution No. 5268 by Mr. Hirstus provided for the opening of East Twenty-fifth place to Cedar avenue. It passed the same month on the 24th day. The improvement was made by Mr. Hirstus did not want it. His reasons for not wanting it, I have been informed, were and possibly are that the people, in the immediate vicinity of the proposed opening did not want people of your race to come through. In any way 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 Sked street. This improvement was never made for the reason that the money in possession of the city was insufficient for the opening of dead end streets and not the making-of new streets. It is the custom of the administration-to defer to the wishes of councillmen for ward Improvements, and I will be the first to proveament at East Twenty-fifth place was not made was because of race prejudice which Mr. Hirstius 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. Nov. 25, 1908. Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette—Dear Sir: Answering your favor of the 32th inst., with reference to the enclosed letter from Mr. Witt, would say that the facts are as Mr. Witt would have 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. Hirius invited me to 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 it. We were asked to agree that Mr. Hirius finally not to have it made. AND ASKED ME TO HAVE NO FURTHER STEPS TAKEN IN THE MATTER. It was not until reckonately that the case which Mr. Hirius was involved in 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. We seem to have HIRSTIUS ALONE TO BLAKE FOR NOT HAVING THE STREET OPENED. Yours. very truly. W. J. SPRINGBORN. Director Board of Public Service. Chinese Moon Worship.

Mrs. EMA LME, 683 First St., Milwaukee, Wis. The above is only one of the thousands of grateful letters which are constantly being received by the Pinkham Medicine Company of Lynn, Mass, which prove beyond a doubt that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from roots and herbs, actually does cure these obstinate diseases of women after all other means have failed, and then treats it to herself to at least give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial before submitting to an operation, or giving up hope of recovery. Mrs. Pinkham, of Lynn, Mass, invites all sick women to write thousands to health and her advice is free. Hearsay Evidence. Mrs. Frost—How's your husband?

"Best is best, and best will ever live." When a person feels this way about Postum they are glad to give testimony for the benefit of others. A school teacher down in Miss. says: "I had been a coffee drinker since my childhood, and the last few years it had injured me seriously. "One cup of coffee taken at breakfast would cause me to become so nervous that I could scarcely go through with the day's duties, and this nervousness was often accompanied by deep depression of spirits and heart palpitation. "I am a teacher by profession, and when under the influence of coffee had to struggle against crossness when in the school room. "When talking this over with my physician, he suggested that I try Postum, so I purchased a package and made it carefully according to directions; found it excellent of flavor, and nourishing. "In a short time I noticed very gratifying effects. My nervousness disappeared, I was not irritated by my pupils, life seemed full of sunshine, and my heart, troubled me no longer. I attribute my change in health and spirits to Postum alone." Read the little book, "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter?

All on Account of Poodles By DOROTHY DOUGLAS It all happened in the baggage room of the Grand Central station and was entirely Marle's fault, though not so much her fault as her ignorance of Poodles' position in the household. They were on their way to Rye Beach—Poodles, Aunt Polly and Marle, Carried marled Poodles simply because an attack of rheumatism prevented Aunt Polly's carrying the dog and two crutches, at the same time. Marle was a newly acquired member of the family and all during the drive to the station her cars were being crammed with what to do and what not to do with Poodles. In the baggage room everything slipped from her mind except the careful checking of three trunks. Aunt Polly had been rushed off to her train by the porter, a trail of cautions wafting back from the door as she went. Naturally, Marle did not know that Poodles was never permitted to put his little feet on the dirt of public byways and, unthinkingly, she set him down while she accepted her luggage check. Meantime, Poodles roamed off toward the door and out into the fresh air. By the time Marle had delved into the bottom of her hand-bag, extracted her purse and put a coin into each of the hands outstretched in readiness, she heard an "all aboard," and rushed off just in time to make the train before it puffed out. The quicker than that had been the weak tended to be. The moment the small tended hood of Poodles appeared in the station door there was a low, enticing whistle from within a closed rage. Poodles was not ungrateful to Aunt Polly for her slavish devotion, but he was prone to accept favors from others. Besides—another thought propelled his fat legs in the direction of the whistle—he had had no breakfast Aunt Polly had deemed breakfast un DONALD J. ROBINSON Even Going So Far As to Put One Forepaw on the Low Step. advisable considering the journey before him. From behind the mat of snow-white hair his little beadleid eyes lighted up—unmistakably the odor of his favorite brand of liver was wnfted from the door of the carriage. Again the familiar whistle invited him. He ventured nearer, even going so far as to put one forepaw on the low step, sniffing hungerly the white. "In a creeping scene from within in a cresising voice. At the same time a square of free," juicy liver was edged nearer the door. That was too much for an empty stomach. Poodles leaped in, the door slammed and the carriage rolled swiftly away. The arch-conspirators, for there were two of them, looked into the eyes of each other and laughed. Poodles, deeply engrossed in the delicacy of liver, remained blissfully ignorant of the fact that he was being stolen. "Didn't it work beautifully?" asked the girl. "You're a wonder," said Aunt Polly's nephew as she squeezed the slender figure beside him, "and now maybe the old lady won't refuse to meet you." "It's rather a mean trick," said Sylvia remorsefully, "but—there is no sense in her refusing to have anything to do with me just because I happen to support my family by going on the stage—is there?" She looked at him appenantly as if for confirmation of her reasoning. But that was not necessary, for Jack Orth loved Sylvia Day and would sacrifice any inheritance rather than lose her; but Sylvia had made up her mind to make Aunt Polly Orth love her, too. The kldnaping of Poodles was a plot entirely her own—she was a little thing second to anything Sylvia desired. "You see," she continued. "I am doing this as much for her as I am for us—she loves you more than anything—after Poodles—and if she disinterested you she would be almost as unhappy as she will be over the loss of Poodles." "Sylvia, how can you care for a man who comes second to something like that?" he asked, casting his eyes at Aunt Polly's treasure. The treasure was lying, fat and sleepy, on the floor of the carriage—a satisfied grunt escaping him now and then. "I know," laughed Sylvia, "but Poodles is not the paragon of loveliness to everyone that he is to Aunt Polly—poor old lady," she put in remorsefully. "She must be having 49 fits by this time—but we won't keep her darling long." Meantime Aunt Polly certainly was causing a little excitement. When she discovered Poodles' loss she fainted on a spot, then hurriedly regained her equanimity and went in search of the conductor to have the train stopped—a thing he flatly refused to do. When she had reduced Marle to ashes from the heat of her wrath she finally ordered her off the train at the next station. This Mario refused to do, well knowing that the old lady in her pres- ent state was no subject for lone travel- ing. However, she did get out and telegraph to Jack Orth to the effect that h. was to go post, haste to the Grand Central, find Poodles if possible, and take the first train to Rye. When they reached their destination Marlo had partly consolled the old lady with the hope that Poodles would be returned undoubtedly. She spoke at length on the collar which he wore in which his full name and both country and city addresses were studded. But when the noon hour struck and the awfulness of Poodles' famished condition smote her she broke out afresh, and it was during this outburst that her nephew arrived. Notwithstanding her refusal to meet Sylvia or to recognize his engagement to her, Jack Orth was very fond of his aunt. Knowing he was partly the cause of her grief he took into his arms and consolled as best he could. Suddenly in the middle of her most touching reminiscence a beatiful smile flitted across Aunt Polly's face. She jumped up, forgetful of rheumatism of everything save the picture she saw through the window. Jack, too, looked up. Coming up the path toward the house was a very trim, slender girl, and in her arm she carried a fat dog. Jack beat a cowardly retreat behind the curtains of the bay window just before the scene started. The girl walked demurely into the room, followed by Aunt Polly. Oh! cried the latter, "my darling Pooches. At all alone in the big city—did it arise upon him when she remembered the pretty girl who was the means of his return to her. "Where was the darling?" she asked. "He was wandering forlornly about near the—a near. Forty-second street—and—" "You are a sweet, lovely girl to bring him out to me so soon," bubbled the old lady. The girl smiled her demure, carosing smile—the one that had, won Jack Orth's heart as well as the great audiences who watched her every movement. "I think it would take a very heartless person indeed not to see what a lovable dog he is and to realize how terribly you must have felt." She squeezed the old lady's hand affectionately. "Why, I almost hate to give him up, even to you—he was so sweet all the way out and hardly made a whimper." There emanated from behind the curtain a smitten laugh. The girl girl smiled Jack Orth, loosening a small aperture, saw an impatient frown filt across her smooth brow. Was Jack going to spoil the beautifully progressing plot, she wondered. Luckily Aunt Polly was busy hugging Marie, who had entered at that moment, and was telling her to have luncheon served. "You see I am taking possession of you," said Aunt Polly, without questioning the girl's desire in the matter. "I want you to stay a while, with me. What is your name, dearie?" "Sylvia -Sylvia Night," fibbed the girl, blushing slightly. "Sylvia? That's the name of that awful stage person whom my nephew—why? Where is Jack—he must know the glad news! Jack!" she called out. "Yes, aunt!" He came from behind the curtain and hid his uncontrollable amusement by wild enthusiasm over the return of Poodle, a played character well, having cast but one glance at him from under her long lashes. She realized that she must carry the situation through force of will. Aunt Polly beamed; she drew the hostaging Sylvia toward Jack Orth. "Miss Night, this is my nephew—Mr. Orth. Jack, this is the sweet young lady who brought back Poodles." She looked at Sylvia coaxingly. "I want you two to like each other." Then she whispered in the girl's car, "He has gone and mixed himself up with some stage person, and I wish you could make him forget her." She bubbled over with happiness, and left the two together. "You're an angel," said Jack, taking the girl into his arms. "And you are a very bad leading man." The girl tilted her back and just as Jack Orth bent his own over Sylvia's, Aunt Polly burst into the room. "Who is Poodles?" Then she stopped. "Why, bless my heart! It didn't take you two long! Maybe you would like me to call up the minister and have an afternoon wedding?" "Sure thing, Aunt Polly—so long as it might entertain Poodles." See Canada as Coming Granary. See Canada as Coming Granary. The Canadian minister of agriculture expresses the belief that before half a century the United States will have a population in excess of 200,000,000 people, and that America will require more than a thousand million bushels of wheat annually for home consumption. Of late years the production has not materially increased in the United States, ranging from 650,000,000 to 750,000,000 bushels, an average under sixteen bushels to the acre. Canadians estimate that the production of wheat will not keep pace with the increase of population, and that the United States will have to turn to Canada to supply the deficiency.

BABY'S SCALP CRUSTED "Our Little daughter, when three months old, began to break out on the head and we had the best-doctors to treat her, but they did not do her any good. They said she had eczema. Her scalp was a solid scalp all over. The burning and itching was so severe that she could not rest, day or night. We had about given up all hopes when we read of the Cuticura Remedies. We at once got a cake of Cuticura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent, and followed directions carefully. After the first dose of the Cuticura Resolvent, we used the Cuticura Soap freely and applied the Cuticura Ointment. Then she began to improve rapidly and in two weeks the scalp came off her head and new hair began to grow. In a very short time she was well. She is now sixteen years of age and a picture of health. We used the Cuticura Remedies about five weeks, regularly, and then we could not tell she had been affected by the disease. We used no other treatments after we found out what the Cuticura Remedies would do for her. J. Fish and Ella M. Fish, M. Ternown, Ky., Oct. 12, 1909." "Show Me Another" Soon after twins had arrived at the home of a prominent dry goods merchant recently the proud father led his son Richard, aged four, into the room to see the little strangers. The father first pulled down the covers and showed one of the babies to his son. He then walked to the other side of the bed and exhibited the other twin. Richard gazed at the two for a moment with a noncommittal look on his face, and then demanded: "Show me another, papa." Doctors Know Soap.
