Weighted down with coins which he had taken in at his saloon, Edward Ruckmar, a saloonkeeper, was drowned in the Ohio river near Evansville, Ind. Ruckmar, with Frank Yeager, was running a trot line, and when both leaned over the same side of the launch to pull in a large fish the boat upset. Five employees of the Texas Pipe Line company at Collinsville, Okla., were instantly killed by a stroke of lightning. Two others were probably fatally injured. Princeton won the varsity boat race at Cambridge, Mass., by a quarter of a length. Harvard was second and Pennsylvania third. "Gifford Pinchot more than any other man has been responsible for tying up Alaska," said James F. Callbread, secretary of the American Mining congress, before the senate territories committee in Washington. He added that former President Roosevelt's executive order of 1906 withdrawing Alaska coal land from entry "warranted a revolution." Two United States soldiers, Cal. Wright, town marshal; Jack Wilson, a bartender, and A. C. Vallasenor, prefect of Nogales, Mex., were arrested in Nogales, Ariz., by military authorities on charges of plotting to steal ammunition from the Fifth United States cavalry, on border patrol, and sell it to Mexican insurgents. Charging government officials with a "propaganda of character assassination" and riddling the National Geographic society, Dr. Frederick A. Cook has written to President Wilson asking that a commission of polar explorers be appointed to investigate his claim and that of Admiral Peary to the discovery of the north pole. The barbers' strike in New York and Brooklyn became a serious matter when it was found that 14,000 tonsil artists had quite work, practically crippling the "trade." Fifty Republicans from eleven states met in Chicago and adopted a report to the national Republican committee urging that a national convention of the party be held some time this year, at which new rules for representation, disposing of contested delegations, delegates to be elected by direct primary vote, and other matters pertaining to the future welfare of the party may be discussed. Representative H. Ollin Young of Jabpening, Mich., announced in the house his intention of resigning his seat. He discussed the contest, instituted by William McDonald, a progressive, saying 458 votes intended for McDonald had not been counted for him and he did not feel justified in holding his seat. The $10,000 reward offered by the state of California for the apprehension of the persons responsible for the dynamiting of the Times building in Los Angeles is about to be paid. A bill appropriating that amount to satisfy the claim of William J. Burns was passed in the assembly and sent to the governor, having passed the senate. That the sentence of Dennis Jackson, a full blood Pottawattomie Indian, to the penitentiary for the murder of his wife and mother-in-law be commuted from sixty to fifteen years is recommended by the Kansas penal board. His heroic conduct in three prison fires was the reason for the board's action.

ASSOCIATION Current Events Related in Paragraphs Washington Special agents of the department of justice, officers of a nationally known detective agency, and local police have been called in by the navy department to investigate a "leak" through which during the last four months several relatively unimportant plans of ships and also minor documents have disappeared. Senate Republicans began their first big fight on President Wilson's nominations when the appointment of W. J. Harris of Georgia as director of the census, succeeding E. Dana Durand, and was taken up in executive session. For almost five hours the senate played at cross purposes on the nomination without even entering into discussion of the merits of the case. The United States Supreme court recessed until May 26, without announcing decisions in the state rate or other important cases before it. It is understood an attempt will be made to decide all before final adjournment for the summer on June 9. Congress soon will be called upon to pay a bill of nearly $1,000,000 for food, clothing, shelter and medical service supplied by the army and navy to the flood sufferers in the Ohio and Mississippi valleys recently. The federal government's final effort to delay alien land owning legislation in California was made when Secretary Bryan, in the name of President Wilson, telegraphed Governor Johnson, notifying him that the Japanese ambassador had earnestly protested against the bill passed by the California assembly and urging him that the governor postpone action by withholding his signature. The first authentic and official report of the federal government's investigation of the Friedmann tuberculosis vaccine, made public in Washington, declare the results of the public health observations so far do "not justify that confidence in the remedy which has been inspired by widespread publicity." No attention will be paid by the American government to President Huerta of Mexico, who definitely told Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson that only urgent business would be transacted with him until the United States recognized the de facto government. Domestic "Jack Johnson, negro pugilist, was found guilty of white slavery charges by a jury in Chicago. A total maximum penalty of 35 years' imprisonment and a fine of $70,000 may be imposed. The Wisconsin legislature has approved the proposed constitutional amendment providing for the initiative and referendum, the senate concurring in the assembly joint resolution favoring direct legislation. The Measure will go to the people next year. As a result of agreements made public in Kansas City between federated shop craft and the Wabash and Southern railway systems 27,000 shopmen will receive increases in wages. Fourteen persons were injured, two seriously, and the First Christian church of Turtle Creek, a borough near Pittsburgh, Pa., was destroyed by a gas explosion. Robert S. Trumbull, a prominent business man of Minden, Neb., where he is a member of the town council and school board, was arrested, charged with embezzlement of an amount estimated from $10,000 to $20,000 from the Kearney Lumber company, of which he is manager. The Missouri supreme court granted a rehearing in the ouster proceedings against the Standard Oil company of Indiana and appointed John Montgomery of Sedalia commissioner to take testimony as to the good faith of the company in severing its connection with any trusts. Mrs. John Bazey, wife of a merchant at Boosewell, Okla., was arrested charged with killing her eight-year-old stepson with poison. The child became ill while at school, and died soon afterward. Poison, according to the authorities, was found in his stomach. Herbert Ingalls of Clatsop county, Oregon, shot and killed Isaac Osgood, mortally wounded Mrs. Osgood and committed suicide at the Osgood home in Seattle. Mrs. Osgood formerly was the wife of Ingalls. Albert J.

JOHNSON REPLIES TO BRYAN'S NOTE CLAIMS NO TREATIES VIOLATED Governor Says 'We Believe We Are In Our Legal and Moral Rights And Doing Only What Is Demanded for Protection of State." Sacramento, Cal.—"My duty to my state compels me to approve the action of the legislature," declared Gov. Hiram W. Johnson in his reply to Secretary of State Bryan's message urging the veto of the anti-alien land bill. The governor later said he would sign the bill, adding there would be no undue haste in doing so. Gov. Johnson's reply to Mr. Bryan is courteously worded, but it is definite and direct. The governor of California does not budge a bit from the position he has maintained from the first on the anti-alien legislation. He emphasized that his position is based "on a strong reliance and the righteousness of our cause and with due deference and courtesy and with proper consideration for the feelings and the views of others." "We believe we are within our legal and our moral rights and that we are doing only what is imperatively demanded for the protection and preservation of our state." The governor's message, in part, follows: Johnson's Statement. "Then William J. Bryan, Secretary of State, will count our telegram relating to the alien land bill reached me late Sunday night. I take it from our conversations, and count our executive action until opportunity was accorded for the presentation of suggestions from the federal government, that your telegram embodies what was your responsibility of which has been recognized by statesmen in our nation, and having been viewed with apprehension by the people of this state. When the present government has more than 30 years ago it contained the following declaration: "The presence of foreigners intelligible to the United States is declared to be dangerous to the well being of the state and the legislature shall discourage their immigration by all means within its power. There is a problem from another angle has become acute, and the agitation has been continuous in the last decade in reference to our agricultural industry. An attempted solution became imperative. This attempted solution is found in the action of our legislature in the passage of the alien land bill. In the phraseology of this bill, in those whom it affects in its scope and in its purpose, we believe we are within our legal and constitutional limits. Only what is imperatively demanded for the protection and preservation of our state. In this enactment we have kept our promises and evidenced by existing treaties and our desire and anxiety have been to act only in such fashion as would commend us to our fellow countrymen." "Where such extraordinary care has been exercised to preserve honor and good faith in the very words of the contract made by the protesting nation with our own, and to do more by authorizing the national land it would see that we ought not to be open to any accusation of violation of treaty rights or desire to entrench upon that which belongs alone to the national government in international policy. By the law adopted we offer no offense; we make no discriminations." Nebraska Again Swent by Storms Omaha, Neb.—Nebraska was storm swept again late Wednesday afternoon and many people were killed and injured in cyclones which are reported from different sections of the state. At Seward, Neb., 11 people are known to have been killed and 25 were wounded. It is believed the death list will be much greater in the town itself as well as in the country surrounding that city. Staplehurst, a small town seven miles from Seward, is reported as having been wiped off the map. John K. Shields is the new United States senator from Tennessee. He succeeded the late Robert L. Taylor. He is a lawyer and has been associate justice of the state supreme court. PLANS FOR U. S. WAR VESSELS ARE STOLEN Secret Service Men and Private Detectives Are Called in by Navy Department to Investigate Disappearance of Plans. Washington, D. C.—Special agents of the department of justice, officers of a nationally known detective agency and the Washington police have been called in by the navy department to investigate a leak through which, in the last four months, several p's of ships and minor documents have disappeared. The first losses were discovered the night of March 4, inauguration day. Structural plans of the dreadnought Pennsylvania, now building and other ships were among them. The navy department issued this statement: "On the night of March 4 when there were a large number of people in the state, war and navy building, assembled to witness the inaugural fire works, there were taken by persons as yet unknown, from the draughting room of the bureau of steam engineering, uncompleted plans of the electric wiring of the new battleship Pennsylvania. "These plans show the general arrangement of decks and hatches but would be of no particular value to any one wishing to obtain naval information not generally made public. "A short time after similar plans were missed from the same draughting room. The matter is still under investigation." The rooms of the steam engineering bureau commanded a fine view of the fireworks, and a number of visitors were in them on the night of March 4. For the most part these were members of the families of officials and clerks, and no one was admitted without a pass. The plans were ordinary blue prints, lying on the draughting table, but were large enough to make quite a conspicuous roll. The fact that other plans for electrical wiring were missed after the 4th of March tended to relieve the visitors from suspicion and as this was the last occasion upon which the rooms were open to others than employees, the investigation turned in their direction. The plans were such as could be prepared to order by any competent electrician. LOSES IN RACE WITH DEATH Young Woman Strives in Vain to Save Father, Brother and Friend From Drowning. York, Pa.—Expert as she is, Miss Ethel Barger lost a race with death by scarce 30 seconds. Striving to rescue three, the girl saw her father, her brother and a friend drown in the Susquehanna river. George Barger, senior, 45; George, Jr., 10, and Edward Price, 15, were in a boat fishing and were upset. None could swim. Miss Ethel leaped into her own light skiff, and, shouting encouragement, strained at the oars. Over her shoulder she saw them drown, her father almost within the reach of her oars. Jack Johnson Is Convicted. Chicago, Ill.—Jack Johnson, negro heavyweight champion pugilist, was found guilty on seven counts of an indictment charging violation of the Mann white slave act. The original indictment contained 11 counts, but four of these had been dismissed previously by the government. The maximum penalty is five years' imprisonment, or $10,000 fine, or both. The jury which had heard the case before Federal Judge Carpenter, took one hour and a half in reaching a verdict. FIND CASH INTACT FIND CASH INTACT $1,426,422,051.48 2-3 in Uncle Sam's Treasury. New Treasurer Gives Receipt for That Amount—Silver's Seals Unbroken; Gold All Weighed; Paper Currency Counted Many Times. Washington—Treasurer John Burke has given his receipt to retiring Treasurer Carmi A. Thompson for $1,426,422,051.48 2-3, the amount of government funds and securities in the custody of the United States treasury April 1812. The official count of coin, paper currency, bonds and other securities has been completed, incident to the transfer of authority from an outgoing treasurer to his successor in office. This transfer of funds and securities is always the greatest financial transaction in the world, both in the amount of money involved and in the labor entailed by the count. The amount transferred to Treasurer Burke by retiring Treasurer Thompson is not so large as the total value of funds and securities turned over to Treasurer Thompson by his predecessor, Treasurer McClung. This is due solely to the fact that transfer accounts with near depository banks have been taken off the books of the treasury, relieving it of just so much big business. The general business of the treasury shows the same steady growth which makes each count of money exceed the last count. Treasurer McClung turned over to Treasurer Thompson $1,519,000,000 in total, the biggest transaction ever. Treasurer McClung received from Treasurer Treat $1,260,000,000, the Treasurer John Burke. third largest transfer. Treasurer Roberts turned over $1,259,000,000 to Treasurer Treat. The funds and securities turned over by retiring Secretary Thompson to his successor are made up as follows: United States notes ..... 907,329.00 Gold certificates ..... 3,753,040.00 Silver certificates ..... 2,997,239.00 Process of redemption ..... 276,251.00 National bank notes in ..... 20,078,048.98 Gold coin ..... 2,956,728.98 Silver dollars ..... 154,383,680.00 Subsidary coin ..... 1,382,987.27 Military coin ..... 49,468.57 Total cost ..... 199,289,914.90 United States paper currency in reserve ..... 379,754,500.00 Incompete the certificate of 190 years ..... 870,000.00 Bonds and other securities held in trust ..... $46,607,539.58 2-3 $1,425,422,051.48 2-3 The correctness of the count is certified to by E. B. Daskam, W. S. Broughton and P. E. Byrne. These constitute a committee appointed by the secretary of the treasury to supervise the count. Not all the money in the valuits of the treasury was counted coin by coin or piece by piece. The great bulk of the silver dollars had been counted when Treasurer Treat turned over the funds to his successor, Treasurer McClung. Not only were seals put on the bags in which they were contained, but the bags were put in a strong safety bin, on which the treasurer's seal was set. There has been no access to these bins since the seal was set until broken for the present transfer. The paper money is counted fifty-two times before it reaches the custody of the treasurer of the United States. This count is accepted as correct in the treasurer's transfer count. Before the final count is completed all this paper money is in circulation, providing an absolute check on the accuracy of the former count. All the gold coin, amounting to $2,505,722.98, was counted by weight. Such of the silver dollars and subsidiary coin as in process of handling and accessible was also recounted, as was all the paper currency of denominations above $10. One little brown man in far Japan there is who rejoices in a way particularly his own, estimated by his method of expressing his elation on the accession of Woodrow Wilson to the presidency. "Hearty congratulations for your throne of presidency on this memorable day." he sends in his letter of March 4, inauguration day, received the other day. He "could not keep a loud hurrah" when he learned that "Hon. Wilson was elected presidency of the U. S. A." Tadashige Suzuti—that is his name—is now, after obtaining his degree of bachelor of divinity at Princeton Theological seminary, attached to the mission field in Japan. His letter, in full, reads: "Shiroishi, Miyagiken, Japan." March 4, 1913. "Dear President and Mrs. Wilson: I have a great honor to send you my hearty congratulations for your throne of presidency on this memorable day. TAKE FIRST STEPS TO 'REUNITE G.O. Republican Senators H to Bring About Peace END CONFERENCE IN CHIC "I am a graduate from Princeton Theological seminary, and conferred the degree of bachelor of divinity at the commencement, May, 1911. I left Princeton soon after the commencement for Japan and now am charging a church in the district of the northeast Japan mission field. Last fall when I knew that Hon. Wilson was elected presidency of U. S. A. I could not keep a loud hurrah. How much we Princeton men were proud with the matter! In Japan there are many who were educated at Princeton (University or Seminary) and they all have the same feeling. "They wrote an applause of you in the papers and magazines at that time. Today your portraits are printed in the papers everywhere and praise your good name. "I remember that when one evening, spring of 1911, we graduating students were entertained at the house of Dr. and Mrs. Greene. Mrs. Wilson gave me her kind salutation with a cup of coffee. I never forget such a sympathizing treatment. I pray his holy spirit upon you and your states. I remain. "Cordially yours, "TADASHIGE SUZUTI." George E. Roberts, director of the mint, predicts that the production of importance of this prediction, made in Mr. Roberts' annual report for the fiscal year 1912, issued yesterday, lies in its relation to the economic law that overproduction of gold tends to increase prices. "It is not probable," says Director Roberts, "that any harmful results will come from a slowing down in the rate of accumulation of gold, for it must be recognized that the growth of gold during the past twenty years has been at an abnormally high rate." The United States has been particularly successful, Mr. Roberts says, in obtaining and holding a large share of the new gold for the past twelve years, the gains of the treasury and national banks from 1900 to 1912 aggregating $25,705,000, an increase of more than 100 per cent. The volume of trade and bank credits, of private, corporate and public indebtedness, and the general level of prices undoubtedly have all been affected to some degree, the director says, by the enlargement of bank reserves through the great production of gold in recent years and by the stimulus thereby imparted to enterprise and industry. The federal government made the enormous profit of nearly $6,417,000 on the coinage of pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and halves during the fiscal year 1912, the director announces. The cost of the nickel is an index of the government's profit on the coinage of minor coins. Out of one pound of a compound of nickel and copper, costing about 23 cents, the government coins about $4.55 worth of five-cent pieces. The net profit on subsidiary silver coins during the year was $4,568,000 "Agricultural Labor in Ireland" is the subject of an article received Wages Paid In Ireland. fast. He says: The number of agricultural laborers in Ireland has been steadily diminishing, and while the supply has been falling off reports show that in the case of permanent laborers hired by the half year or the year the difficulty of the farmer is not so much in getting hands as in obtaining a supply of efficient labor. In many districts there is still a good deal of friendly co-operation, small farmers assisting the large farmers at busy times in return for horse and machine work. The improvement in the housing of laborers and the increase of laborers' cottages are now securing to the farmer a more certain supply of labor. During the past year there has been a slight advance (more marked in some districts than in others) in the rate of wages of both permanent and casual laborers. The cash wages of agricultural laborers have increased continuously for many years past, the advance being attributed to scarcity of supply consequent on emigration. The highest wages are in the neighborhood of Belfast and Dublin. In certain cases the wages of plowmen rise to £1 ($4.87) per week, but the general average in the better districts may be placed at 13s to 16s ($3.16 to $3.89). New Idea for Roadways. The highway department of the city of Leeds, England, has recently treated part of a macadam roadway with granular calcium chloride to combat the dust. Solutions of the latter had previously been tried at greater cost and without such satisfactory results. The road is first well swept and two applications of the chloride are made on the succeeding evening of about one-half pound a yard. EAGLE TAKE FIRST STEPS TO'REUNITE G.O.P.' END CONFERENCE IN CHICAGO Decide to Ask National Committee, at Its Meeting in Washington, to Issue Call for National Con- Chicago—First steps toward "remitting the Republican party" were taken at a conference of Republican United States senators and other leaders of the party here. Ask for National Convention. The conference decided to ask the Republican national committee, at its meeting May 24 at Washington, to issue a call for a national convention this year. To reorganize the party "along progressive lines," Senator Albert B. Cummins of Iowa, Senator William E. Borah of Idaho and former Gov. H. S. Hadley, together with the other leaders at the conference, agreed that the proposed convention shall change the basis of representation in future conventions and make other radical changes so that the party shall stand "for constructive and progressive activities in the affairs of government." "Does the suggestion to reunithe party mean that those who joined the Progressive party are to be asked to come back?" Senator Cummins was asked. "It means just as I have said before that the convention would be a sort of Lord's supper and all those who believed might partake." After the conference, which adjourned after being in session for two days, the following statement was given out: Aim of Senators. Senator L. Y. Sherman of Illinois, who acted as chairman, was instructed to present the pronunciamento to the national committee. EIGHT BUILDINGS ARE BURNED EIGHT BUILDINGS ARE BURNED Most Destructive Fire in History of Sharon, Pa., is Believed to be Work of Incendiaries. Sharon, Pa.—Eight buildings were destroyed and loss of $75,000 occasioned when Sharon was visited by the most destructive fire in its history. Incendiaries are blamed. The fire started in the three story frame building of the Keith-Kerr Carriage Co., the largest of its kind in this section. The flames reached the three story brick barn of the Sharon Livery Co., the National Dresch's cold storage and the Kelly Grain warehouse. Four dwellings directly across the street were gutted, the occupants being compelled to escape in their clothes. Cook Appeals to Wilson. Washington, D.

Cook has written to President Wilson asking that a commission of Polar explorers be appointed to investigate his claim and that of Admiral Peary to the discovery of the North Polar Uncle Sam Produces New Fruit. Washington, D. C.-The papaya, a tropical fruit that is shaped like a cantaloupe, colored like a green watermelon and tastes like more, has been made to flourish in Florida by the department of agriculture. Soon the new fruit, which is unknown in this part of the continent, will be put on the market. Government experts did not meet with success in trying to produce the papaya from seeds, but by grafting they won. A small tree which bears many papayas is produced.

Few of the Democratic congressmen from Ohio, who are supporting the Wilson tariff bill, were chosen by a majority—but neither was the President. Our Democratic congressmen will get but their trouble for their pains if they do knock out the gerrymander of their districts by a referendum. They can't make a district in Ohio which would re-elect a man who voted for the Wilson tariff bill. The Marion (O.) Star says: Ohio will be hit by the Wilson tariff bill in more places than any other state for no state runs so nearly the whole gamut of human activities, being a great agricultural, as well as a great manufacturing state. JACK JOHNSON. In common with the great majority of our thoughtful people, we are praying for an end of this "Jack Johnson" notoriously in the daily papers of the country. As we predicted months ago our people are paying dearly for his miserable conduct ever since he won that championship; and we will continue to pay, in the sacrifice of rights, and privileges in public places, for many months to come. That he has been persecuted because of his great victory, is true. But even that does not justify his miserable conduct to which he plead guilty in court this week. "A fool and his money soon parts". Would that he too, would depart—for the good and welfare of a struggling people. HE "SIDE-STEPPED"! Our esteemed contender and friend, Editor John Mitchell of the Richmond (Va.) Planet, will pardon us if we remind him that his article in his paper last week, anent The Gazette and its criticisms of Dr. Du Bols' conduct of the N. A. A. C. P., was not comment on what we did but 'but rather an effort to "side-step" treating the "questions at issue". We made ourselves perfectly clear in our editorial comment, and as Brother Mitchell is an old editor we feel reasonably sure that he understood us but for some reason or other did not dare or want to treat the important matter as he should have One thing sure and that is the Planet's editor did not indicate in his article that he saw "the point The Gazette made". Try again, sir! "MORE POWER TO HIS KIND"! That South Carolina Afro-American who recently refused to be the subject for a lynching and killed so many of his mob-pursuers, helped wonder fully to teach the entire south a much needed lesson. He was only "suspected of having committed a criminal assault" and white brutes swore "to take the law into their own hands", and without the semblance of a trial, as usual, lynchmurder him. This too, in a state in which lynching is officially sanctioned, a state with a governor (Blease) who upholds "m law" and who frequently expresses a desire to participate in the execution of it. Says the Cleveland Daily Plain Dealer: "On the off-chance that the Negro is innocent—and a fairly large proportion of men lynched are innocent—would it not have been more practical and economical to bring him before some tribunal other than that of Judge Lynch and give him a fair trial? The crime of which he is suspected is a capital offense in South Carolina, and he could have been satisfactorily and expeditiously hanged if found guilty. The present case seems to indicate that lynch "law" is impractical and wasteful, as well as brutal and brutalizing." Of course it is! "THE NEWS!" BODY-BLOW! The following are the head-lines (in large, black letters) of an article in Wednesday's issue of the Cleveland Daily News: JACK JOHNSON GUILTY, MEANS RACE REFORMS Laws Prohibiting Intermarriage of B'acks and Whites Sure to Come BLACK PUGILIST WILL BE MADE AN EXAMPLE If He Has Been Persecuted It Should Be Lesson to Others, Says Attorney. The intent of the foregoing is so plain that any one can see it. "The News" would promote another such "Separate Marriage" bill fight as we have but recently been relieved of after a bitter and long-standing effort that was state-wide. A few years ago, after months of effort we succeeded in getting the assistance of Editor Nat C. who put a stop to much the same kind of miserable treatment at the hands of both "The Leader" and "The News", as is this latest "stab". There are 20,000 Afro-Americans in Cleveland, many of whom have of late months' been patronizing "The Cleveland News". The above ought to be notice to them to discontinue taking that paper unless the present manager, Mr Wm. Leach, who is a New York newspaperman of experience and ability, sees his way clear to stop such unwarranted attacks on the rights of our people. No other class of Americans are so mistreated and there is no more excuse for such mistreatment of us than there is for the others. Then too, such attacks do nothing but increase the prejudice against our people and make it all the harder for them to make a living in this community. Therefore we ask Mr. Leach, in the interest of common decency, and the interests of our people in Cleveland, to put a stop to such harmful and unwarranted attacks. BELLE AND JACK TESTIFY. Jack Gave Her $9,000 and in Defend “White Slave” Charges Denies Buying Any Diamond for Her or Traveling With Her on Railroad Chicago, Ill.—Belle Schreiber, the notorious white woman, Jack Johnson is in the Federal court, charged with transmitting from Pittsburg to Chicago for immoral purposes, and thus in violation of the "Mann White Man" law, was sent to Chicago to jail. She is a slight, rawhide pretty brunette. Previous witness had testified to renting an apartment to Johnson, which was occupied by Belle, and to having sold furniture for the apartment to the pugilist. The apartment was located in the tenderloin district, and she first hit Jack while she was an inmate one of the most notorious resorts in Chicago. This was in 1909, when she was twenty-two years of age. She said Jack went to New York, but called her up by telephone, and sent her money through his manager. She would go to visit the fighter paying her expenses from money sent by his manager. Tuesday afternoon of this week, Jack took the witness stand and acknowledged that he knew the woman and told of a telephone conversation with her in October, 1910, in which he said that she told him she wanted $75 very badly. "What it?" asked Attorney Bachernach. "Yes," he answered. Jack said that when he met the woman in Chicago, he had given her to the best of his recollection between $8,000 and $9,000. He also said he had never traveled on the same rail road train with her. He had given her to fix up a flat for her, her sister and mother to live in. She wanted to work again as a stenographer. "I sent about $1,000 for her to fix up her flat," said Johnson, "and then gave her $50 to keep her till she could get a job as a stenographer." He denied he had ever given her any diamonds. Jack then fainted, Etta Duryea Johnson, then carried her to an automobile and taken her to a hospital. He denied this. In his instructions to the jury U. S. District Judge Carpenter emphasized the fact that the character of the prosecuting witness must not be considered. "The fact that the prosecuting witness is a discarded mistress, an abandoned woman, does not affect the issue in this case," the court said. "The fact that the prosecuting plebe here in this case—trainers, fighting camp hangers-on and women of the underworld—but because of their status in life their evidence must not be disregarded. It is as much an offense under the 'Mann act' to transport a hardened woman as an innocent girl. It is not necessary that t person accused of violating the act shall receive a profit through transportation of a woman." According to Wednesday's local daily news, Johnson was convicted of violating the "Mann White Slave" act. He was found guilty by the jury after only an hour's deliberation, on all seven counts of the indictment. The total maximum penalty on the seven counts is thirty-five years or a fine of $70,000. It is not probable that any such severe sentence will be given Johnson. He was released on May 19. The trial was filed at once by Jack's attorney and arguments on this motion will be heard on May 19 by U. S. Judge Carpenter. OATH OF AFRO-AMERICAN YOUTH I will never bring disgrace upon my race by any unworthy deed or dis honorable act: I will live a clean, decent, manly life, and ever respect and defend the virtue and honor of womanhood: I will uphold and obey the just laws of my country and of the com- munity; I will encourage others to do likewise: I will not allow prejudice, injustice, insult or outrage to cower my spirit or humiliate my soul; but will ever preserve the inner freedom of heart and conscience: I will not allow myself to be overcome of my life: I will strive to be with good: I will deavor to develop and exert the best powers within me for my own personal improvement; and will strive unceasingly to quicken the sense of racial duty and responsibility: I will all these ways aim to be in my race so that I am bound to by ties of blood, it shall become a bond of enoblem, and not a by- word of reproach—Prof. Kelly Miller, Howard University, Washington, D. C. OHIO MOTHERS' PENSION! How Ours Here in Cleveland Can Get Them—Read and Remember. Juvenile court, which will have charge of the distribution of mothers' pensions in Cuyahoga county, has opened a bureau where needy mothers are to apply for aid. The bureau is the benefit of mothers who have children not old enough to get certificates to work. It gives a maximum of $15 a month to a woman with one child, with an additional maximum of $7 for each other child. Needy mothers should write or call on Tom Lewis, chief probation officer, old courthouse. Each application will be investigated by Miss Kennedy, a probation officer, and if it is proved a fraudulent attempt has been made to get a pension, the offender is liable to punishment. Lewis has already received several applications, but it will be at least eight months before money will be available for distribution. It is expected it will take $120,000 a year to pay the needy mothers in this county. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.. SATURDAY, MAY 17, 1913 ARE NOT SLAVES OF FASHION In China a Man Can Dress as He Pleases Without Attracting Attention. The fashions in Suchien, Klangsau province, have a variety of such extent that every man can dress according to his individual choice and still be in correct taste and without attracting special attention from anybody else. In other words, the styles this year are of personal ideals, according to a correspondent of the British China Daily Herald. He says that every man wears what is right in his own eyes, and there are few if any, to ridicule. A panama hat goes jauntily down the street, closely followed by a fur-covered bim hats, felt hats of scarlet and verdigris green come along with grays and browns that do the hatter credit for unique invention. These, with the Eskimo top capes, a few derby hats and the smart military uniforms, give the streets a piquancy which was unknown in the monotonous china blue of former years. Among the notices posted on the city gate is a fashion plate that has been exhibited for weeks. It displays two or three of the typical "western suits"—the swallow-tailed and the low front frock for evening wear—street garb of European and American style, and many other varieties. There one also finds the plaited skirts recommended for the women, and close by them is the proud slik or stovepipe hat of felt, which has its special corner with other headgear. STRIKE WON IN 20 MINUTES Union Is Formed and Disbanded With in Short Time After Cause Is Won. A story comes from Sydney of a union that was formed, strike declared and won, the union dissolved, all inside of 20 minutes. The strike was of the theater-goers in Mt. Gambier, in South Australia, and was against the management of a barn-storming troupe. The management asked two shillings for admission to the show, but the prospective audience refused to pay more than one shilling, and after a hasty consultation outside the theater formed a theater-goers' union. Pickets were stationed and within a few minutes 278 persons—practically all who were there—had agreed not to pay the two shillings. The manager appeared at the doorway and refused to make the required reduction. "I'll give you till I count 20," said the president of the union, "and after that our price will be sixpence instead of one shilling." He counted slowly to nine, when the manager capitulated. The strike was declared at an end, the union dissolved and the strikers trooped into the hall.—New York Tribune. Still Willing to Be Imposed Upon. He had youth and much faith and inexperience, but his good father took him into his office to initiate him into the mysteries of business. The second day he was at work a man came in asking for financial aid, with a pathetic story about a sick wife at home and six helplessly small children without a crust in the house. The boy listened earnestly and then went into his dad's office to intercede for the unfortunate man. He told the sad story seriously. The father leaned forward and peered into the outer office at the vagrant. "My son, credulity is one of those good things that die young—and it is such impostors as that man who make it so," he said impatiently. "Why, when that man was here last week he had eight children, according to his story." "But, father, don't you see," replied the son tragically. "The other two probably died of starvation." Renewing Mahogany. Many pieces of fine furniture now stored in garrets would be in use if cleaned and made presentable. This may be done by removing the varnish with a sharp chisel an inch or more wide, lapping it on a fourth of an inch each time, and scraping down the wood. Uneven places should be softened with wood alcohol and scraped with a putty knife. Finish with a cloth wet in alcohol Smooth the surface with sandpaper and finish with coach or waterproof varnish. Where varnish has turned white wet with alcohol without rubbing. Enough to Make Him Sick He came creeping in at the usual hour when a man finds it convenient to enter his house with as little commotion as possible. He replied in response to the usual wifely query put to the gentlemen who arrive home at that hour of the night, that he had been sitting up with a sick friend. "A sick friend, indeed! And what alled him?" "W-why, he lost twenty dollars."—Stray Stories. Tea Reveals Oil Field. The discoverer of oil in Papua, British New Guinea, was the result of a native boy being whipped for placing kerosene in a miner's tea. The youth declared his innocence and led the miner to the well from which the water had been taken. It was found that the surface of the water was completely covered with kerosene, the source of which is being developed into a huge commercial enterprise. $500,000 Left to the Poor. Gloucester, Mass—Mayor Foster has received a check for $50,000 from the estate of Rev. Father J. J. Healey, of St. Ann's Catholic church. When Father Healey died several years ago he left among other bequests a legacy of $50,000, explaining: "I will this for the benefit of all the poor and needy of Gloucester, without distinction of nationality, creed or color, remembering that every man is our brother and anxious to break down un-Christian discrimination against Christ's poor." INVITES OUR BOYS, TOO! To Train For War—College Students Invited to Enter Camp and Get, Free, Six Weeks' Instruction. Washington, D. C. - Secretary of War Garrison has decided to extend to the students of Ohio colleges an invitation to attend the experimental military camp of instruction at Gettysburg to be conducted for six weeks beginning July 7. All students over 17, physically qualified, who are properly recommended by the military instructor or president of the college will be detailed as instructors will be allowed to attend the camp. During the encampment they will be in effect enlisted in the regular army and under command of some of the most efficient officers of the army. It is the first time this experiment has been tried by United States army officials. The students will be required to pay the expenses of their transportation to and from camp and to purchase a field uniform and will be required to camp the government will charge them $1.75 a week board. This not only includes rations, but quarters in tents. Although it will be in the nature of an outing for the students they will be given serious instruction in military science. This will be both theoretical and practical; the handling of troops in the field under battle conditions and instruction in shooting by practice will be required. On the basis of advance inquiries' Secretary Garrison believes there will be between 1,500 and 2,000 students at the military school of instruction. It was originally planned to confine the invitation to eastern colleges in the eastern military division. But so many inquiries have been received in the west that Ohio has been included. The federal civil service commission today set June 21 as the day for the Ohio examinations of applicants for positions as U.S. deputy marshals and deputy collectors of internal debt. The examination entrance lists close June 7. 50TH ANNUAL COMMENCEMENT PROGRAM. WILBERFORCE UNIVERSITY JUNE 12-19, 1913. June 12th—Thursday; 7:30 p. m.— Annual address to the religious societies, Rev.

Ill.-Sending of half grown Negro boys and girls to what was charged to be virtually slavery in southern families was alleged to be a common practice in the disposition of unmarried women. R. J. Bennett, president of the Illinois Home and Aid society, was questioned on the workings of his organization by members of the legislative committee investigating home finding societies. "That is the same as sending them into slavery," asserted the Rev. Frederick J. Lloyd, a member of the committee, when Mr. Bennett asked the youths often were sent to domestic service in southern families. Bennett replied that no better place could be found for them.

Charence Brown wrote The Gazette that he had just arrived in Los Angeles, Cal. "Well, but tired. Country beautiful. Stopping at the Waldorf-Astoria, Earl Parker, proprietor." It is currently rumored that Lew. Adkins went west with Brown and Sizm. Pentecost. If you wish The Gazette delivered to you, every week, by our carrier, send word, or a postal card with your address, to Cyril Dandridge, 4710 Central Ave. Local items for publication can be handed to him also. Only subscribers' papers are sent through the mail. Mrs. Rosa Brooks of 3237 E. 90th St., is chairman of the "endless-chain" lunchroom committee of our Old Folks' Home. All persons, east of E. 55th St., report money to Mrs. Mima Harra, 2189 E. 105th St., and all persons west of E. 55th St., will report to Mrs. Geo. Jones, 2393 Central Ave. and Mrs. Evelyn B. Jones, 2393 85th St., president of the home, asks that all persons invited to the lunchons, accept and thus not break the chain. The Huggins-Weaver case came up in court, last week, for final hearing, and Mrs. Susie Huggins was given judgment. She brought action against Chas. F. Weaver to establish her right as a partner in the restaurant at 2613 Central Av., closed recently, and formerly owned by L. G. Adkins. The court decided that there was a partnership and appointed Theo. B. Green and Unisimade attorneys for Mrs. Huggins and Mr. Weaver, actively, as receivers to settle up the partnership affairs. A barber shop and pool room have been started in the rooms formerly occupied by the restaurant. The Auxiliary to the Juvenile court, Mrs. P. J. Tarrer, president, will give an entertainment at Mt. Haven Baptist church, Monday evening, May 26. The Du Bois Literary club, will present the play "How the Story Grew"; female characters only. There will also be good music. Mrs. John Smith, an active member of both the Du Bois and Hinwatha clubs, secretary of the organization sent a beautiful bouquet of eut flowers, a small token of their sympathy. The City Federation of Women's clubs and the Du Bois club have joined the "National Association of Colored Women's clubs." This came about through the earnest solicitation of Mrs. Mary Tobert, an officer of the president of these organizations. The Du Bois club entertained, Friday evening, at Mr. and Mrs. Wm. McNaughton's, E. 30th St., in honor of C. Carroll Clark one of its honorary members, who left for New York, Sunday. The husbands of the club members were the invited music was made by Mr. Clark, the club quartette, and J. Walter Wills. A dainty lunchie was served and toasted given by club members, Mr. Clark responding appropriately. It is a real treat to hear Miss Helen Oden play piano when she relieves the hard-working and faithful pianist at the Oden theater, each evening, because Miss Oden, who is a splendid pianist as well as an excellent performer on the stage, suits the music to the pictures, she is a great bassist and also an exceptionally strong and musical contralto voice. Her long and varied experience on the stage, in many parts of this country and abroad, have especially fitted her for the conduct of a first-class theater such as she is rapidly molding the "Alpha," now the Oden into. Its hundreds of regular patrons have materially increased in the recent weeks, since she troweled in all the management of her excellent management, first-class vandeville, moving pictures and music. Go to the Oden and be convinced! Everything are clean, neat and wholesome. Fatrons are no longer disturbed, as in the past, by the rough, coarse and loud-mouthed—old and young. These very individuals can play first-class theaters and Miss Oden is very properly ussing that they do so in her's. Show your appreciation by increased support and tell your friends. ATTENTION, READERS! Don't throw away your copy of The Gazette when you have done with it, but give it to some appreciative person whom you feel would be likely to subscribe or take it regularly, if they had a copy to look over and read carefully.

HELEN OGDEN MANAGER. The Brown Drug Co. has been making some good changes for the betterment of the already large and increasing business it has built up. It would be hard to find a drug store any more complete anywhere, as it has always been Mr. Brown's policy to have the best that money could buy in lines of each department of his store. He has been chief chemist for the past two years, has purchased one-half interest in the firm and will devote a good deal of his time making analyses of all drugs and chemicals bought for the Brown Drug Co., as he has heretofore. Mr. Seyfert is a graduate of North Western University, of Chicago, Ill., and a man of high qualifications. Brown and Seyfert will continue to work with the company stock of sundries, such as rubber-soap fumes and toilet soaps and accessories, giving their customers everything that is good and up-to-date. The soda fountain has been donated for the benefit of the Home for Aged Colored People on June 4th and 5th. In addition Brown and Seyfert have taken $28 worth of tickets to help the good cause along. Mr. Oscar Bowers will manage the storage of mountain for these two dates, such as the stores of ladies in making the benefit for the flora a success. Tickets now on sale at our store, 2742 Central Av.; also by the committee of ladies. Dover, Del. Announcement has been made that F. L. Parker, a senior student in the school of agriculture of the University of Minnesota, has been appointed instructor in agriculture at State College. He is a son of F. D. Parker, of St. Paul, Minn., former resident of Cleveland, O. Young Parker received this preliminary training at St. Paul's High School, graduating in 1908. FIND HOME FOR MULATTOS. Southern White Planters and Southern White Woman Botanizing It **SPRINGFIELD, Ill.** - Discovery of a home **SPRINGFIELD, Ill.** - mixed usually white and Negro—and catering to southern planters and southern white women, was made by the Curran legislative committee investigating charities, May 8, in this city. It is called the Lincoln Colored home and records of 20 white women who had come to the home were unearthed. Mrs. Emma Moore, matron of the home, conducted the investigators through. It was clean and apparently run in an excellent manner. The records of the home are tragic, but none so monstrous that they are the kind of women of the era. She was the mother of two miluat children, through her infatuation of a Negro. When she reached Springfield she sought shelter for her children. The latter were taken into the Lincoln home and the woman disappeared. LODGE NOTES Excelsior and Light of the West lodges have consolidated, as until further notice will meet as Excelsior lodges, No. H. F., and A. M., the first Monday evening of each month. They have received several applications for membership which will be acted on at the next regular convocation. Cuyahoga Lodge, No. 95, Elks, initiated a large class of candidates recently. This lodge will discontinue disgarrations, and increase the price of the membership fee in the near future. Ohio Lodge, No. 1188, Charles Summer Lodge, No. 1500, and H. H. of R. No. 1275, G. U. O. of O. F. held their anniversary services in Akron, Sunday, led by Phillegans' band, 21 pieces, and Cleveland Patriarchie, Capt. Jas. H. Beckwith, commanding. The occasion was a grand success. H. H. of R. No. 7, held its anniversary services same date at Shiloh Baptist Church. C. P. Lancaster, district deputy, with the assistance of some members of Cuyahoga Lodge, reorganized and installed Delta Lodge No. 149, Elks, at Akron, the affair ending with a banquet at the new "Hob-Nob" club. The annual anniversary services will be held May 25th, 1913, of all branches of K. of P. at St. John's A. M. E. church, the line of march starting at E. 21st St., and Scovill Av. to E. 22d St., to Central Av. to E. 40th St., Major Saunders, marshal of the day. Cuyahoga Lodge, No. 95, Elks, will hold its seventh anniversary services at Mt. Zion Congregational church, Sunday, May 18th, at 3 p. m. Special music for the occasion. Mrs. M. F. Green, district deputy, D. of E. made an official visit to Dayton, recently. A. J. Taylor of Buffalo, past chief ranger, Court Douglas, No. 8494. I. O. F. and P. M. St. John's lodge, No. 16. F. and A. M., was a recent visitor in the city. "The Educational Day" programs at St. John's A. M. E. church, Sunday, and Wednesday evenings, as an announced in the *Gazette* last week, proved interesting indeed. The oralisms, especially those by Messrs. Armen Evans and Robert D. Drake, the music, readings and solos, especially those by Master Howard Fields and miss Eleanor Alexander, were very good, and the attendance was like wise. Possibly the most entertaining feature of either evening proved to be the discussion of "Why Women Should Vote," the editor of The Gazette taking the affirmative and Rev the other opened the discussion with a brief general discussion of the object and was followed by Dr. Bailley, who, using biblical quotations as a basis, endeavored to show that the privilege of voting was man's right and that voting would harm or ruin woman's or mothers' influence in the home. This was interspersed with many witty sallies at the expense of his unmarried opponent (in the discussion), all of which was greatly enjoyed by all. The editor of The Gazette "came back" with some "sallies" and facts explaining why women should vote and giving some eight or more of their back of time prevented the giving of all about a loot in more. The audience was enthusiastic and about evenly divided on the subject, but apparently thoroughly enjoyed the discussion. Refreshments were served in the basement of the church after the program was finished. RISKS LIFE FOR LIBERTY. 4 Eay on the Way to the State Industrial School Leaps from a Car. Columbus, O.-Ripking his life to prevent returning to the Boys' Industrial school at Lancaster, Danny Bakerville, and 13 of Tiffin, hurt himself from a Scioto valley traction car, south of Columbus, May 8, and was seriously hurt. He was being returned to the institution. When the car reached Obetz Junction, Danny asked permission to go to the toilet, the boy crawled through the window and dropped head downward. The car was going at a high speed. He landed in a heap and fractured two ribs. He started to run after the officer had ordered the car stopped, butainted. He was removed to the hospital at the school. DOINGS OF THE RACE We have a pretty straight tip from Washington, D. C., that Dr. W. E. Du- bols will receive the appointment from President Wilson of Minister to Hayti. The position pays $10,000 a year. Portland (Ore.) Advocate Because he ate a meal with a Colored servant in his home in Texarkana, A. Stephenson, principal of the Central High School, on the Texas side of this city, was on May 7 summarily discharged. Among the Americans, statistics show that in gainful occupations there are over 64 per cent, while of the whites but 49 per cent. In agricultural employments over 2,000,000; in domestic and personal, 1,500,000; in trade and transportation, over 210,000; in manufacturing and mechanical, over 300,000; in professional lines over 48,000 and especially the result, viz. that he totalled $600,000,000. They owned or rented over 20,000,000 acres in farms. This is an answer to the charge of laziness—Boston Guardian. First Lieutenant John E. Green, Twenty-fifth Infantry, U. S. A., has been directed by the Secretary of War to go to Washington, D. C., to act as chairman of the board of judges which will pass upon the annual compendium of the laws of the high school cadets. Lieut Green is now stationed at Wilberforce College in Ohio. There is only one way to get all the race news up to date, each week, and that is to take "the old reliable" Gazette.
