ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1913. State Organization Meets In Greensboro, Aug. 12. WHO WILL BE GRAND MASTER Choice For Chief Office Indicated by the Executive Committee at its Recent Meeting—Qualifications of Colonel James H. Young For Leadership in Great Fraternity Not Doubled. By GEORGE FRANCIS KING. Greensboro, N. C. This city is preparing for the forthcoming annual meeting of the North Carolina Odd Fellows, which will bring here some of the leading men of the race in the state. This fraternity has been pushing very progressive strides in this state, and from present indications at the forthcoming annual meeting it will keep up its record of same legislation to meet the popular needs of the Afro-American people in this state. The late J. B. Catus, grand master for North Carolina, has been succeeded by a character that is eminently fitted for the head of the organization. Mr. Catus was one of the leading factors of the race in North Carolina and COLONEL JAMES H. YOUNG. was highly esteemed by both races. Until his death he was postmaster of Winton, N. C., and as a public officer he had made an enviable reputation and reflected credit upon the Negro's ability to hold such important positions. His recent death is imitated by citizens in every section of the state. Mr. Custis was an ardent advocate of equal opportunities for the race, and especially was he active in giving the people of his state the best opportunities that they could command for their educational development. He was a trustee of Winton Normal Institute and made many sacrifices in order that this institution could survive the strenuous times peculiar to all such movements during their incipient periods. At a recent meeting of the executive committee of the Odd Fellows of North Carolina a selection for the head of the fraternity was made which met the approbation of the subordinate lodges throughout the state, and this board is being commended by leading Odd fellows in many sections of the country for its election of Colonel James H. Young of Killeen to fill the unexpired term of Mr. Custus. A man move competent to all this office cannot be found in this state. "The colonel" says a man of large stature "is considered by those in high authority as the best and most thoroughly equipped financier, bookkeeper and up to date manager of all our public officers." For the past twenty-five years he has admitted held an important position in the internal revenue department at Ingleigh, and if political events should bring about a change affecting the colonel it will not be an easy task to readily and a man to hold down the job like the present topmasters. In every movement for the uplift of the race in North Carolina for a number of years the colonel has been a guiding solitir. He possesses a kind of intellecultism and penetration of affairs which give him the power to control such forces that will work for the ultimate ascendance of his people, pledges and patriots amine. Undoubtedly there will be a birth of new things for this fraternity under the guidance of the colonel. He is extremely bound "on with the kind of requisites and limited enthusiasm that will attestate the thousands of Odd Followers in North Carolina. The element of decay is not present in this especial organization, and from every Indication the colonel will unanimously be elected the district grand master of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of North Carolina ar the annual meeting, which begins here on Tuesday, Aug. 12. Women's Clubs Doing Great Work. At the annual meeting of the Texas State Federation of Women's Clubs, recently held in San Antonio, copies sent from forty-five clubs made encouraging reports on work among girls, emergency homes, rescue houses and general uplift work in the rural Americas. VACATION TIME AT SHAW. Ivons Things at Noted School. Raleigh, N. C. The vacation of the students of Shaw university has not completely made the campus of the institution lonely. The man who is constantly at his desk creating new life in various departments of industries is Professor G. A. Edwards, who can be found in his office any month in the year. As far south as Mississippi this energetic head of the industrial departments of Show and one of the leading Afro-American architects in the country has buildings, the product of his brain, in course of construction for people of both races. Standing out pre-eminently as the result of his ability is the new hospital at Shaw, with which will soon be associated another beautiful brick structure, known as Theological hall. It will have three stories and a basement and will have all modern improvements and will accommodate fifty-two students. The theologs will have all of their recitation rooms in this building, and the Young Men's Christian association will have well appointed quarters in the basement. Professor Edwards will superintend the construction of this building, and if the same was given to a contractor it would not cost less than $18,000. This will be one of the most attractive buildings on the campus and will reflect much credit upon Professor Edward's skill. He has recently completed plans, which were accepted, for a brick building for the local Old Fellows to cost $22,000, and the Christian church, now in the course of creation, at a cost of $27,000. Professor Edwards is the head industrial worker of Shaw. He is certainly helping our people in this section to procure comfortable homes, which means so much to the community life of the race. WORK OF THE NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION High Tribute Paid to Its Efforts by W. Anthony Aery. Mr. W. Anthony Aery, press agent at the Hampton (V.A.) institute, pays a high tribute to the efforts, work and achievements of the National Negro Press association in an article which recently appeared in the Southern Workman. The article in full is as follows: Wider publicity for the facts of Negro progress and problems of race adjustment is being everywhere secured through heartier and more systematic co-operation among Negro editors and correspondents. Today men have a better chance than they have ever had before to secure accurate and timely facts concerning the struggles and successes of colored people, especially in the south. An important factor in the widening and deepening of public interest in the Negro as a progressive and vital element in American civilization is the National Negro Press association, organized in 1900 and given new life in 1912 at the Chicago meeting of the National Negro Business League. The officers and members of the Negro Press association are working harmoniously "for the highest development of Negro journalism." Their policy is that of printing "the news without fear or favor, giving a true reflex of existing conditions without concealing exif." Their policy also includes the publication of a Negro newspaper and publishers' directory and the establishment of higher standards in advertising, business methods and news service for the public. The work on the directory is being fully done by Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., the national corresponding secretary. The problems of working out a plate service and of developing a reciprocal news service are being worked out by a subcommittee of the executive for action at the annual meeting of the association to be held in Philadelphia in August. The white papers are coming to realize that the public is interested in Negro progress. They are printing as news items the advance of the American Negro in indownding, home building, community and school improvement. The Negro papers are devoting more space to live news concerning their own people and less to sensational material in which the ways, and not the best ways, of white people are exploited. In short, there is a graftifying growth in the common interest of giving all the people all the news of mutual progress and good will." The officers of the National Negro Press association are: R. W. Thompson, Washington, president; Joseph S. James, Chelmsmith, O., and Gurley Brewer, Indianaapolis, Ind. vice president; Henry Allen Boyd, Nashville, Tenn., and Charles Summer Smith, Minneapolis, Mn. secretaries; John L. Thompson, Des Moines, la. treasurer; N. Barnett Podson, New York city, chairman of the executive committee. Ekus to Felicitate at Atlantic City. Activo preparations are being made by the committee of arrangements for entertaining the Ekus' freeracey, which holds its fourteenth annual convention in Atlantic City. N. J. from Tuesday, Apr. 29 to 30 in Instrument, James A. Lightfoot, editor of the Atlantic Advocate has charge of the bureau of information and has already announced Toune's pier as the place for holding the annual ball and reception of the order on Thursday, Apr. 29. GREAT LEADER AND ORGANIZER BELIEVES IN CO-OPERATION Brief Account of How the Cause of African Methodism Has Been Advanced Through the Uniting Labors of a Minister Who Is Worthy of Promotion. St. Louis.—The Rev. William Sampson Brooks, D. D., pastor of St. Paul A. M. E. church in this city, has broken the record for money raising for religious work. He has made for himself a place in the history of the African Methodist Episcopal church that will ever remain as a monument to his energy and which will mean his promotion to higher official life. Dr. Brooks was born in Calvert county, Md., in May. 1805. He has achieved success by hard and persistent labors, and his home state is proud of his admirable record. Schools for the education of colored people were few and far apart when young Brooks arrived at school age. It was after he had reached his majority that W. Sampson Brooks decided to take on more education, hence went to Baltimore and entered Morgan college, remaining there just seven years, during which time he completed the academic course and spent some time in the college department. This was the beginning of his active work in the church and for his people. He felt that the Lord desired to use him, and he put himself where he could be used. He started in the work of the gosset ministry, joining the Iowa annual conference at Des Moines in 1803 DR. W. SAMISON BROOKS. DR. W. SAMISON BROOKS. and was assigned to Minneapolis, Minn. where he was given an opportunity to show his ability. During his stay in Minneapolis he erected a fine church. It was while in Minneapolis, that Dr. Brooks decided to broaden his sphere of usefulness, hence arranged for an extensive tour through the old world. He sailed from New York on Feb. 27, 1855. He first visited London, and while there took a special course in the Art museum. He then visited Liverpool, Rome, going through Italy, France and along the course of the Mediterranean sea, spending some time in the holy land, and then into Africa. He speaks the Swedish and Norwegian languages as fluently as he does his mother tongue. He has pastored churches in Des Moines, Chicago and Nashville. In Nashville his zeal worth as a pastor was recognized by the people during his short stay there, where he accomplished a great work, adding many to the church, and raising large amounts of money for the church. When the congregation of the St. Paul A. M. E. church here was struggling under a heavy debt, Bishop Parks was petitioned to send to the church a man of experiences in church finance, an organizer and leader. Dr. Brooks was then pastoring in Nashville, but the bishop heeding the call of the St. Paul church assigned Dr. Brooks as its pastor. On taking charge he met the officers of the church, talked over conditions, then met the people, outlined the work and put every member in the church to work, and each new member was informed that he would have to work for drones were not wanted. The indebtedness amounted to $14,000 and he declared that it should be wined out. May 19, $7,541.85 was the amount put on the table, and it is declared that within a few weeks $2,000 will be placed on the table and there will be a shouting In St. Paul A. M. E. church, St. Louis, for it will be out of debt. In 1010 will be held the centennial general conference, and many of the ministers have already declared that it will be then that Dr. Brooks will be elevated. The man who can bring souls into the church, raise $5,000 one Sunday, and then on another Sunday put down over $7,000 is a born leader and is the man who should be put where he can lead more largely, and the A. M. E. church is going to put Dr. Brooks in such a position. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Hampton Institute's remarkable results in training negroes are vividly set forth in the forty-fifth annual report of the principal, just made public. From a school of fifteen pupils and two teachers the institute has grown into a busy educational village of over a thousand persons, with a far-reaching influence, not only for the races it is designed to aid, but for the whole nation, which benefits by the splendid work and example of Hampton graduates everywhere. Industrial training is the keynote of the Hampton success, according to Dr. P. P. Claxton, United States commissioner of education, who is keenly interested in the Hampton work. It is noteworthy that this industrial training is of the most immediate and practical sort, applied to the ordinary producing tasks of life, first of all in the educational plant itself. At Hampton practically all the work is done by the students themselves. There are buildings to be kept in repair and occasional new buildings to be erected; there is a farm of 600 acres to be cultivated, with 150 cows and young stock, 40 horses and mules, and hog and poultry. There are horses to be shod, to be built, boys to be clothed—these are a few of the industrial opportunities which the plant itself offers. Last year the students received over $60,000 in wages, of which about one-fourth went to the girls for domestic work in the institute. This year the boys of the trade school have built Clarke hall at a contract price of $26,142. The work called for the services of bricklayers, plasterers, carpenters, sheet metal, workers, steamfitters, plumbers, cabinetmakers, electricians and painters. The architect who designed the building, after inspecting the brick work done by the boys, said it compared favorably with similar work done by New York men, and some of the local builders proounced it the best piece of work in that section of Virginia. At Hampton work is considered a privilege; in fact, one form of punishment is the taking away of work from a pupil. No student is ever punished by being forced to work. At the same time labor is not insisted on as an end it self, but rather as the means to an end. "The aid of Hampton," says Dr George P. Phoenix, vice-principal, "I not merely to train workmen, but to educate men and women who shall stand for the best things in the communities to which they return, and who can make their skill contribute to this end." Colossal fortunes have been won and lost through the enterprises of men, but reverses have never succeeded in checking the ardent spirits, in all ages, in all climbs, among all people, evil fat—as well as fortunes has played a part, but despite its frowns the combat has been waged, and valorous deeds have emerged which redound as a tribute to genius. The Negro should not carve the luck which is of his own creation, but impart every energy to make his positions more tenable. Uplift is the outgrowth of hidden forces driven by individual will, and cannot be divorced from the benefits their efforts grant to man. A simple polio call is in use in Chicago, where one has but to ask for Main 13 and connection is at once made with the nearest police station. There is one high office of the United States government which since the Civil war has been filled by a Negro. It is considered their property, after a fashion, and appears to be hereditary in the race. It is the office of register in the treasury. It is at present filled by J. C. Napier, a Negro of course. Every piece of currency issued by the United States treasury bears the name of the register of the treasury. One need only look at the paper money in his pocket to read the name of this Negro. W. T. Vernon and J. W. Lyons are former Negro registrars of the treasury whose names appear on a large amount of the currency now in circulation. The poultry trainer need not have a watchdog to protect his flocks. Instead, a burglar alarm may be installed, which will be much more efficient protection. An alarm attached to the henhouse door with a bell in the owner's bedroom is inexpensive. The voice of the past is but that of a will-o-the-wisp. To heed it is to die of fatigue. The present wants you, and the future awaits. In focussing binoculars the tubes should be extended to their limit before placing to the eyes and then adjusted, for, if extended afterward, an optical nerve strain is caused that sometimes results seriously. The offer for $10,000 for a safety train stop brought out 1,574 responses most of which were entirely impractical. The efficiency of the water turbine has been recently raised by various improvements to 94 per cent. In city and in country wherever there are any large number of negroes they are confronted with the same sort of a problem that confronted the colored workmen at the Newport News ship yard. That is the problem of making the most of the opportunities for working. Nowhere in this country are the difficulties in securing work for colored persons as great as the opportunities for working. No negro in the south has to be idle because there is no work he can get to do. On the contrary, jobs, especially in the trades, are continually hunting him. If he loses his economic hold upon the south it will be because he has not made the most of his opportunities. Nevertheless there is everywhere, as at the Newport News, always the likelihood of the Negro being displaced by foreigners unless he become a reliable, a dependable workman. Although the problem of the shiftless, irresponsible Negro is general, it can be most effectively dealt with in a local way, just as was done here at Newport News. The responsible colored people here have set an example which should be followed by the better class of colored people in every community. Led by the ministers, teachers and—parents, they should come together and take steps to see that the shiftless, irresponsible negroes stick to their jobs. This class of Negroes is a menace to the entire race. It is from their ranks that the chain gangs are recruited. It is they who bring discredit upon us, and cause the whole race to be charged with being unreliable and irresponsible—New York Age. Men of genius have not always been good financiers. They have known how in many ways to make fortunes for others unscrupulous enough to steal their ideas or inventions, but they have not been shrewd enough to secure the protective copyright or trademark and provision for royalty, and so have died and filled the pauper's grave. It is said, for instance, that the great Thomas A. Edison knew so little about money matters in his early career that he did not know what to do with the first check he got, said to have been for $100,000, for one of his first inventions. The story seems incredible, but may be true. A news dispatch in the Philadelphia Record says that after spending all of his money to buy books from which to gain "additional knowledge to facilitate his work." John B. Trusty, aged forty-five years, "a colored man of unusual intelligence," has been removed to the poorhouse, "there probably to end his days." The Record says further: Trusty said his money is gone and he could not afford a physician or buy medicine if he did have a doctor. His food was nearly exhausted and he was fainting starvation. Trusty is the inventor of numerous mechanical appliances now in use in local plants. All of them are regarded as most efficient and economical machines. The inventor, however, does not seem to realize what his inventions would have meant to him had he had them patented, and he never received a royalty or even fair pay for them. While he worked he spent all his money, practically, buying books to help him work, and he had acquired a considerable library This country's production of bond during last year was 400,824 bet tons, a decrease of more than 6,000 tons over the previous year. The farmer who sells eggs should have a dating stamp, and after the eggs are brought to the house they should be carefully sorted and dated with indelible ink. The date will add 50 per cent to the flavor of the egg when it is served at the consumer's breakfast table. It is a good idea for the farmer who retails eggs to include a card guaranteeing every egg to be as represented. It is not difficult to get five cents above the market price for such eggs, particularly when eggs found to be bad are replaced cheerfully with good ones. Official figures, recently compiled, place the cement production of the United States last year at 82,351,191 barrels, which is a new high record and an increase of more than 3,800,000 barrels in a year.

Entered at the postoffice in Cleveland Ohio, as second-class matter Address all communications to HARRY C. SMITH Editor and proprietor, THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, G. Member Ohio Legislature: 1894 to 1896; 1898 to 1898; 1900 to 1902 THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. Just what democracy — national democracy controlled by southern democracy — means to our people, when it is power at Washington, D. C., can be learned as a result of a careful reading of our letter from that city published elsewhere in this paper. The prejudiced American correspondent-liar has followed Jack Johnson to Europe and is sending his rot to the daily papers of this country. "Read between the lines!" and one can easily note how clumsily he lies. American prejudice seems deterred to make a "martyr" of Jack. Yes, The Gazette is unalterably opposed to "jimcrow" Y. M. C. A.'s here in the north, and has stated its objectives so often that it is not necessary to repeat, at this time, much as we would like to please our esteemed confrence of the Indianapolis Freeman who apparently is inclined to temperize in the matter. The Secretary of State of Ohio has sent to the newspapers of the state, for the information of its taxpayers, particularly, a very interesting three column article relative to Wilberforce University which The Gazette would publish but for the fact that its readers have been given the information it contains, and more, in recent months. President W. S. Scarborough is making a real university of it, we are pleased to assure all. TOM DIXON BOBS UP AGAIN. Tom Dixon, Jr., former "Rev." Thomas Dixon, Jr., author of "The Clanman" and much other prejudiced literary "rot" of a like kind, had given our race so much rest from his vicious and malicious attacks by voice, on the stage and in the daily press of the country, in recent months, that we had begun to wonder what had become of him; whether the rest was not "the lull before the storm." It seems not, however, we are pleased to say, and yet we are not prepared to accept the insinuation, in the following excerpt—that Tom has re- formed: The prejudice which is a part of all of Mr. Dixon's writings, and which is usually displayed in an irritating manner, is rather funny than other wise in the present work. "The South erer." The fact that Lincoln was southerner than Dixon's mind, the greatest point in his favor. If he had not been born in the south he could not possibly have been the great man he was. That is clear. For all the other great men on the northern side who were native northerners, were, it appears from this presentation, nincompoops and scalawags. It is most gratifying to read a book by Mr. Dixon which is written by him. He seems to have discarded permanently this old stock in trade which first brought him fame, or rather notoriety. Even as a thriller and horrifier and a gatherer of shekels the theme is worked out, and its originator has wisely abandoned it. The Southerner does not amount to much.—Carl T. Robertson in Cleveland Plain Dealer (daily). We sincerely trust Mr. Robertson is right when he says that race prejudice, as a theme for books and plays, "its worked out," and hope the same condition will soon obtain in the case of the daily press of the country, too. "THE MILK IN THE COCOAUNT." According to dispatches in the daily newspapers of the country, last week, Arthur Pelky, the pseudu ("white") heavyweight champion puillist of America, since he killed Lulther McCarty ("white"), the other pseudo heavyweight champion of America, has drawn the color-line. This he did a day or two before Sam Langford arrived from a two years sojourn abroad, mostly in Australia. There is "method" in Arthur's hasty conclusion. It is generally conceded by those who know that the three next best heavyweight fighters in the world (to Champion Jack Johnson) are "Negroes"—Sam Langford, Joe Jeannette, and Sam McVey who for the last five or ten years has made Paris, France, his headquarters; that either one of these men, who rank in the order named, can easily lift Pelky or any other "white" pugilist in the world, and that the prejudice American daily newspaper outcry against, and the persecution of Jack Johnson whose miserably immoral conduct we don't for a moment overlook or condone, was the purpose of getting rid of a "Negro" champion rather than Jack Johnson, per se, immoral conduct included. Pelky's hasty announcement of last week but confirms what many thoughtful persons of both races have all along believed to be true. It is strange, passing strange, that Americans do not see how silly, ridiculous and oftimes contemptible, such prejudiced declarations and stands make them in the hearts and minds of the fair-minded in this country and about all the inhabitants of other countries. .SLAVERY IN THE PHILIPPINES. A heart-rending hue and cry has been recently raised throughout the United States over the slavery which exists under the Stars and Stripes in the Hinterland of the Philippine Islands. The American Secretary of the Interior, burning with patriotic zeal and undying love of liberty, had set about the remedying of this frightful condition. It seemed incredible to the patriots of the present administration that slavery should anywhere exist within our domains; it was their primary duty to relentlessly pursue and uproot the dread system until it was stamped out. But lo! the enraged ardor of the American people suddenly cools; the Wilson administration's patriotic fervor for freedom in every mile of our national territory is abated and silent. It now comes out from a white American, William S. Lyon, on Manila, that by far the most vicious and degrading and numerous slavery that exists in the Philippine Islands is carried on by white American residents themselves. True it is, he says, that orphan children among the uncivilized Negritos are either killed or when some greedy Filipino merchant interposes, are sold as household slaves until they reach their majority, to civilized families; but no such hapy luck awaits the Filipino girl if she comes into the clutches of an American.—N.

C., July 24. —A sweeping segregation order went into effect in the Treasury department last week, which requires all of our employees, regardless of their position, to use a separate toilet room, one located in the basement of the main building. The order also compels our employees in Treasury bureaus, located in rented buildings, to also use separate toilet rooms. In the Post Office department this segregation has been in effect for weeks. Now that the Treasury department has ordered segregation, the order eminating from Assistant Secretary of State Johns from Richmond, Va. with the approval of Secretary McAdoo and President Wilson, it is expected that the other departments will follow in their steps. The segregation order J. B. Hon J. G. Nanier even effects Hon. J. C. Napier, U. S. Register of the Treasury, a presidential appointee. Mr. Napier protested against the order to Assistant Secretary Williams, that the sion of a rebel insisted that the order stand, and said that he believed in it. Register Napier is expected to resign as a further protest to the segregation order. It is also announced that the administration of the Afro-American is to be appointed to office who does not favor segregation. The fact that one must favor the segregation of his own race in order to secure an appointment, does not deter some Negro Democrats from applying. A. E. Patterson, of Oklahoma, is here to speak. The Senate of the Treasury. Although the Democrats of Oklahoma passed a disfranchisement of law for Oklahoma, Patterson stumped his state for the Democrats, and now expects his reward in the shape of an appointment to the Registership. Not only are our employees being segregated, but they are being dropped from, and demoted in, the office. The Senate perturbed. Separate street-cars, and a stringent segregation in everything, now look assured. This is democracy —southern democracy, if you please. CORRESPONDENTS WANTED.

CADIZ—The 17th annual convention of the W. M. M. Society of the North Ohio conference, closed last Sunday evening. It was a most profitable and helpful session. The reports showed that over $1600 was raised for missions during the year. The program was well rendered, almost every person who was to take a part responded. The papers were well prepared. One by Miss Estelle Gainer, an education, was great in getting an education, was great in education and elicited much comment. On Sunday morning Bishop C. T. Shaffer of Chicago, preached an able and inspiring sermon on "Missions." He also addressed the convention in the evening. The bishop seemed highly pleased with the mission work of the conference branch but urged the ladies to do more in the future. Mrs. Rosa Johnson was re-elected president, for the seventeenth time, and first, for the ninth time. Mrs. McKinneyville, was elected treasurer. The convention adjourned after passing resolutions commending the pastor, Rev. O. W. Childers and his wife, and the people of Cadiz for their excellent work in the entertainment of the convention. Among the visitors at the convention were: Mrs. Belle Tanner Temple, representing the Woman's Christian Recorder; Mrs. T. J. Askew, Pittsburg; Mrs. Offer, T. J. Askew, Pittsburg; Mrs. Ustenssburg conference branch; Roy G. W. well, P. E, and Rev. J. A. Collins, P. E; Rev. C. M. Hogans, Bellaire—the local A. M. E. church has had an unusually successful year.

The work has increased. Too much praise cannot be given Rev. J. A. Collins, P. E. of the Western District, for his vallant services in reviving a work that has been dead eight years or more. We heard pleasant addresses from Rev. Maxwell, P. E. of the Western District, Mrs. Graceoffer, fraternal delegate Pittsburg, who brought greetings from that district, and said, among other good things: "In 17 years we have had eight presidents in our national or parent body while you of the N. O. C. B. have only one—Mrs. Rosa Johnson of Cleveland." A hint to the wise is sufficient. Mrs. Askins offered a letter of recommendation to the parent body, were present. The latter is associate editor of the W. M. M. S. paper, "The Recorder." Bishop C. T. Shaffer spoke Sunday morning, outlining our work and its accomplishments. We are glad to know the bishop has this work at heart. Among some of the more material things, he said: "Be always careful not to forget that no accounts to go forth which would bear question." Yet in the face of this, our appropriating finance and executive committee, all combined in one, gave its total receipts and disbursements without itemizing the account. These are some of the things which cause comment many times. Who's trying to hide anything? the question, "The convention next year—Canton. At that meet let all the equal-rights women in our midst stand for a by-law limiting the time in office to from two to four years. Our offices in every department of the M. A. E. church (connection) are a training school for every one and not for a few, as is and has been the case with the nineteen still nominates women to run against our president and some others, who are as eligible for those offices as six-year-old girls. We see the motive, of course. AN INSULT AND THE PROTEST! Albany, Ohio, July 21, 1913. Below I give a true statement of my case as nearly as I can remembrere conversations of last Friday morning: On Friday morning (about 8:00): July 18, 1913. I entered the barber shop in the hotel basement, where I am accustomed to being shaved and having my hair cut by the barber who happens to be quite tall. I am the barber in the shop who was cutting young Crabtree's hair, and another man occupied a chair upon the shoe-shining stand, whom I learned later was a brother of the new barber. I took a chair and awaited "next" as usual. The new barber came in and shined his shine stand and said something in an undertone to which the man on the stand seemed to nod. The new barber resumed work. At that moment Mr. Joel Lowther (white) came in and seated himself next to me. In a few moments the new barber came across the room towards me and said: "I (or we) don't shave Colored people here," I replied, "Who are you, and where are you from?" He answered, "My name's McVay." "And where are you from?" I asked again. "From Athens," he answered. Then I asked, "Who owns this shop?" He answered, "George Spring." My next question was, "What is your objection to shaving Colored people?" He replied, "I just won't shave 'em." "Do you think Colored people inferior?" I asked. "Well, I don't know about that," he replied, "but I'll leave before I'll shave a Colored man." Then I told him that character and not color made a man, and that the sooner he left the better it would be for the community, as such a man would immediately left the shop and went to Geo. B. Spring and laid the case before him. George said, "I'm awful sorry, but I never thought about you; if I had, I would have come over and told you about the shop." I told George that I would see a man in that other place' before I saw my question like that in a room of mine; and I asked George to "fire" this new race-discriminating youngster or I should demand satisfaction for the insult. Geo. B. Spring owns and conducts a shoe store and millinery business, and also owns "Hotel Spring," in the basement of which is the barber shop which he owns. He stated that he had NOT leased the barber shop, but employed the aforesaid McVay to work. Big Farm Land Deal. Willoughby, O., July 19, 1913. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir—Our branch office, irr the city, has just closed one of the branches deals, and is been pending the month. This deal amounts to $14,500 investment secures 127 acres. MISTRESS WAS TOO "TOUCHY" Unable to Agree on the Subject of Toothbrushes, Mald Abruptly Resigned Position. When the tall girl found the mistress of the six-room flat washing dishes she asked what had happened to Mary. "Mary has left," said the housekeeper. "I insulted her yesterday morning at 10 o'clock, and at 11 she packed her trunk and skipped. "We had a row over toothbrushes. Mary exhibited an unparalleled interest in toothbrushes. Every brush she came to was taken up and turned over and over and commented on admiringly or the reverse. "Finally she came to mine. I could sense at once that she liked it. "Whose is this? she asked. "Mine," I said. "She poured out a glass of water and dipped the brush in. "Oh, well," she said, "I won't be afraid to use it, then." "For a moment I stood there literally stupefied, but soon I saw that prompt action was necessary, and I caught Mary's arm in a painful grasp. "Put it down this instant,' I commanded. "Put it down." "Mary drew back and withered me out of the corner of her eye. "Dear me,' she said, 'how touchy some folks are. I never work for touchy folks.' "And so we parted. She seemed unable to get my point of view on toothbrush etiquette, and I seemed unable to get hers, so we thought it best to sever our relations." FREQUENTLY FORGOT RING Nervous Bridegrooms Overlook Important Feature of Marriage Ceremony —Substitute Sometimes Used. This warning has been given many times to the nervous bridegroom on the morning of the great event of his life. One would hardly think it necessary to remind a man of so important a feature of the ceremony. Yet, again and again has the agitated bridegroom found himself in the awful predicament of being minus the hoop of gold. And distressing are the scenes which sometimes ensue. In some instances, the clergyman has come to the rescue. At one wedding, when the bridegroom confessed that he had forgotten the ring, the minister promptly drew a bunch of keys from his pocket, handed the largest of the bunch to the embarrassed young man, who looked stupidly at the large loop at its end. The bride, however, had the presence of mind to thrust the proper finger through the loop, whereupon the bridegroom, prompted by the clergyman, said in a dazed fashion: "With this ring I the wed." Another clergyman, at a suburban wedding, supplied the suddenly discovered deficiency by removing his eyeglasses, slipping out one of the lenses, and offering the gold rim to the bride. She had tact enough to accept the strange substitute without question. Joy of Living. The legitimate joy of living is the prize of sanity, courage and sympathy. The sight of all the preventable diseases and the moral disasters that are avoidable may, and often must, draw a cloud over the day. The still, sad music of humanity is not always soothing to those who hear it, and sometimes makes cheerfulness seem criminal. Yet the cheerful, happy souls are the bringers of blessing to the disconsole and the victims of sin and sorrow. Every human being has a right to be happy if he can, and indeed he is under obligation to set the example to others who live under darkened skies. It is a help and comfort to the down-trodden and the oppressed to know that there is such a thing as liberty, and that it is obtainable. The sight of an innocent, happy child will often bring comfort to a sorrowful heart. He who is unselfishly happy because he is at peace with himself and attuned to the harmonies of nature is in the proper mood to serve his fellow-men. No Race of Giants. The remains of extinct races of men which have been dug up furnish no evidence of the former existence of "giants" nor does any race of men larger than that inhabiting the northern parts of Great Britain exist at the present day. We recognize a certain size as that which is characteristic of man and of various species of wild animals, and we are accustomed to a certain small variation in that size, so that individuals are somewhat "shorter" or "taller." But any large divergence from the characteristic height (amounting in the case of man to a third more or less than the average or normal height) we regard as altogether exceptional, and speak of the abnormally tall individuals as "giants," and the abnormally short as "dwarfs." First Civilization. It was Egypt, in all probability, that the condition we call civilization had its rise at a time when the very idea of writing was unknown to other nations. An attempt is now being made to show that the idea of the settled and more or less orderly and peaceful social state to which we give the name of civilization came from Chaldea, or Babylonia, where that sort of thing existed long before it was brought to Egypt. But not as yet is the theory clearly proven, though its advocates are making some pretty strong points in its favor. So far, however, the "Land of Egypt" holds the title. "Mammy" Visits McAdoo. Washington, D. C., William G. McAdoo, Secretary of the Treasury, let a dozen or so distinguished persons wait impatiently in the reception room of his private office while he talked and laughed over old times down in Georgia with his aged "mammay" "Aunt" Julia Gibson, July 20. She is the mother of seventeen children and still lives at Marietta, Ga., the town in which Mr. McAdoo was born. She came to Washington to call on "her chile." Mr. McAdoo said afterward the call was one of the most pleasant he has had since he took charge of affairs in the treasury. HOTEL DALE CAPE MAY, N. J.

One of our young attorneys has been too careless in this respect in recent months. A very pretty souvenir post-card, received Wednesday, announced that Mr. Clinton Ross was "looking over Omaha, Nebr." There are more Afro-American voters in the 11th ward than there are voters of any other class of Americans. Isn't it about time we were having the member of the City Council, instead of always being asked to support some white candidate? What is worse still is that all the positions allotted that ward always go to the other classes of voters and none to us. Give the matter a little thought. The N. O. conference of the A. M. E. Church has selected St. John's church to represent it at the Pennsylvania celebration of the 50th anniversary of emancipation, to be held in Philadelphia, this fall. A photo of the church building and premises will be taken and placed on exhibition as representative of the progress made by our churches in the past fifty years. An honor to St. John's, and its also last two pastors. Rev. Ira A. Collins and Rev. Chas Bundy. Mr. John Johnson, a former employee of the Kennard House barber shop, in later years employed in a shop in the basement of the Mercantile Bank building, N. E. cor. Superior Av, and W. 6th (old Bank) St, died and was buried, last week. It is said, His wife is a niece of Mr. and Mrs. Johnson, a family of of this city, the latter coming here from Meadville, Pa., many years ago. Mr. and Mrs. Johnson reared a family of several children, and lived in the southeastern part of the city off Kinsman road. The oldest daughter married some years ago and lives in New York state. The widow and children have the sympathy of many friends. The "Sterling" branch library, a gift of Mr. Andrew Carnegie, is to be completed in a few days. It is about the cheapest and tastest-looking building of the kind, we have seen in the city. Why? Why? was our institution the War Department officials, to allow such a poor-looking building to be erected? It cost but $36,000 and it took eighteen months to complete it. It is situated on E. 30th St., between Pine and Central Ave's. Books for it have been purchased. Figures compiled by Librarian W. H. Brett show that Cleveland has the most books per bar of books read per capita and third in the circulation of books. New York and Chicago are the only cities ahead of Cleveland in circulation. The "Phyllis Wheatley" home for working girls of the race has been established in the house owned by the M.E. School to the latter, in E. 40th St. (No. 226) near Central Av., with Jessie E. Hunter, a trained nurse, in charge as general secretary. The house is a commodious three-story frame, and it was dedicated to the work, Thursday, when visitors were welcomed from 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. At 3 p.m., Mrs. Levi T. Scofield, the "financial backbone" of the home, delivered an address and in the evening there were talks by John P. Green whom our local clergymen will remember, and who trustees and an advisory board, it is said. The managers are: Mrs. E. F. Boyd, chairman; Mrs. Lula B. Cox, sec.; Blanche B. Jeanche, rec. sec.; Mrs. H. B. Cash, Mrs. W. E. Burton, Mrs. H. Mason, Mrs. Lottie R. Bailey, Mrs. Henry Taylor, Miss A. B. Cohen, Frenning, Mrs. P. H. Stevens, Mrs. F. K.

Mrs. Lucy Davis of Los Angeles, Cal., a former resident of this city, is here on a visit—at her sister's, Central Ave, near E. 31st St. While in California, she purchased a five year lease to the D. Dandridge, former pastor of Shilch Baptist church, has a milk dairy out there, and is doing well. Seven out of the 15 coaches (over 900 persons) that went to the union picnic, last week, were in total darkness for over an hour coming in to the city from Crystal beach—on the Nickle Plate road. Many of the young people took advantage of this. Several persons lost their pocketbooks and packages. Mrs. T. J. Hicks was injured before the train got out of the city. When the conductor's attention was called to it, he treated the matter with indifference. Outside the railroad, people gave, no money was made, it is said. The picnic was a fat thing for the railroad, however. A number of persons in surrounding towns and cities, as well as many in the city, who have been in the habit of attending it, did not hear of the picnic until it was a thing of the past by several or more days. The DuBois Literary club will give a "garden party" at Mrs. T. W. St. John's, E. 71st St. Aug. 27, when the playlet, "Sewing Circle of the Period," will be given by the club. as part of the program. The party is to benefit the clubs student time. The club will be on par with the Paint. Aug. 20. Mrs. St. John was hostess to the club, Wednesday afternoon. Mrs. Case, delegate, read a very interesting report of the Oberlin state meet and the club had as guests: Miss Adèle Love of Oklahoma, Miss Pearl Smith, formerly of Oberlin, and Mrs. W. H. Hunley.

Out at Luna Park, nearly every day in the year, our people are refused the privileges to skate, dance, bathe, etc., freely accorded to the denizens of the tenderloin, just so they happen to be "white," who go out there and apply for them. And yet there are "Negroes" who are entitled to the treasury of the Luna Park management, at least once a year, on the first of August, by attracting a crowd of their own kind to that place of amusement. What has become of the Negro's manhood, self-respect, race pride and about everything else, who will so truckle to anything or anybody in order to make a few "tainted" dollars, for themselves, to own a vehicle else in such a miserable way? May God help them "to see the light as they should" and stop their efforts at such "business" for any purpose whatever. It is not necessary for us to tell our good people of this community, their duty in this matter.

"Well," said the child, after meditating for some time on the import of his answer, "I'm not really so much surprised about you; but mummy—no, I don't see how mummy managed to get grown up!" Not the Ordinary Fare During a visit in his church is pacity through southern Maryland, Cardinal Gibbons was entertained by the Order of Jesuits at Leonardtown. That part of the state is famed for its diamond-backed terrapin, canvas-back duck, oysters, crabs and fish, and a sumptuous table was spread before the cardinal. During the repast the cardinal turned to a priest near him and said, with a twinkle in his eye: "So this is the way the Jesuits dine!" "No, your eminence," replied the priest, "this is the way the cardinal dins!"—Judge. Good Execution With One Shot. With one shot a man named Gossip of Tyalgum (N. S. Wales), Australia, killed three dingoes, the other day. On investigating a disturbance among his dairy cattle, the man noticed several dingoes attacking one of the herd. It was bright moonlight, and Gossip, firing at the nearest dingo with a rifle, was surprised to find later that he had killed three with one bullet. The bullet struck the first dingo in the neck and passing through broke the second's back, and entered the third dingo between the ribs, breaking its foreleg. The pack had previously killed a valuable cattle dog. Pen Pictures of Mother's Love. Pen Pictures of Mother's Love. You know what it would be to spend one of your winter evenings in a chamber without a fire on the heart or a carpet on the floor; even though the furniture were costly and the friends congenial, nothing could imitate comfort or diffuse the wonted radiance. And in this wintry world, your mother's love and care are the carpet on the floor, and the blaze on the evening hearth. To life's latest moment they mingle in every picture of pre-eminent happiness—Dr. J Hamilton. Ancient Election Customs Ancient Election Customs. No complaint with regard to undue limitation of polling time was possible in the old British parliamentary days. The danger was that polling might be prolonged for a fortnight or a month. Drastic action to bring the poll to a close once provoked a riot in the Westminster division of London. At the general election that began on April 25, 1741, the two Westminster candidates were on the fifth day of polling well ahead; but an opposition party of electors approaching the hustings in great force, the high bailiff (who favored the ministerialists) declared that he feared a riot, and closed the poll. The baffled voters rioted and the military were called out. The high bailiff had afterward to apologize on his knees to the speaker and pay a heavy fine. Heating Dear.

Geneva.—The king of Wurttemburg is taking his holiday this year in walking excursions. He goes quite alone, except for his favorite dog. He is staying at one of his country places near Friedrichsafen, on the other side of Lake Constance. He came over a day or two ago in the little tourist steamer to the Swiss shore at Rorschach. As a simple traveler he went into a bar and ordered a glass of beer. "You have a beautiful dog," said the Swiss waitress as she served him. "Yes, more beautiful than I am," replied the king. "That is true," said the girl, glancing at the king, "and certainly he is far younger. "You are perfectly right," replied the king. He drank his beer and laid a gold piece on the table. The girl ran after him down the stret, saying he had forgotten his change. "Oh, no," answered the king, "you are to keep the money as a souvenir of the king of Wurtemburg, to whom you have paid an unacustomed compliment of sincerity." STRANGE PARTS OF THE SEA Submarine Earthquakes Are Said to Cause Mysterious shocks to the Walters New Orleans, LA—Mariners say that in the midst of the Atlantic, about where the twenty-fifth meridian west from Greenwich crosses the equator, there lies a region of mystery. It is on the line that ships take from Madeira to Brazil. Only within the last half century has it been sounded and its strange phenomena reported. One investigator declared that he saw the sea about half a mile from his vessel suddenly disturbed. For about two minutes it boiled up violently as from a subterranean spring. THINKS JAR OF JAM A BOMB New York Judge Flinds Mysterious Bundle, Which Police Soak In Water. New York—Strawberry jam caused the scare. Jam like that which mother used to make—the kind that we stole when we were kiddies, and then got licked for the "swipin." When Judge Thompson of Brooklyn returned home he found on the fourth floor an oblong pasteboard box about eight inches long and three inches wide in which were what appeared to be two metal cylinders. His curiosity stopped then and with more speed than grace he darted downstairs and called up, police headquarters, explaining that he had found a bomb. Detective Ward was sent to the house. At arms length he carried the bomb to the police station and soaked it in water, while the nerves of some of his fellow-policemen began to become a bit ragged. Visions of an honor medal appeared to Ward as he began to open the suspected bomb. Everybody was breathing hard. He severed the strings and —there was a sorry-looking detective, for the "bomb" was two innocent jars of strawberry jam. All Modern Improvements. Sparker and Plug had just returned from a glorious spin in Sparker's brand-new automobile, and as they sat in Sparker's library they talked of many things despite the noise Sparker's youngsters were making. "Tell you what, Sparker," said Plug, "you've a fine, healthy lot of children. By the way, how many have you?" "Seven," said Sparker, proudly. "You know, I've often wondered," went on Plug, "whether you people with so many children have any particular favorites." "Well, no," answered Sparker, hesitatingly; "that is to say, you know, we don't have favorites exactly, but of course you can't help being more interested in this year's model than in some of the earlier ones!" When little Doris climbed up to her father's knee, it was quite oblivious that some deep problem was troubling her mind. Presently she unburdened herself of the momentous question. "Papa," she asked, "was it a very wise person who said 'The good die young?' "Yes," replied her father. "I suppose he must have been very, very wise." "Well," said the child, after meditating for some time on the import of his answer, "I'm not really so much surprised about you; but mummy—no, I don't see how mummy managed to get grown up!"

READ MOUSE CALL. Chicago, Illinois --- BASEBALL Cravath refuses to stop his terrific batting. Joe Tinker's batting is best of his whole baseball career. In Rebel Oakes the Cardinals have a corking outfielder and hitter. Tris Speaker of the Red Sox is getting into the battle for the swat title. This replacing wabby pitchers with the stars may win a few games but lose a few pennants. Charlie Deal, the former Tiger now playing third for Providence, leads his team with the willow. Hugh Duffy is causing a great stir with his Portland team in the little old New England league. Loomis of the Adrian South Michigan league team pitched a no-hit game against Bay City at Adrian. Russell Ford of the Yankees has been showing his old-time form and pitching some great ball of late. And now Connie Mack has bought back a player he sold. Claude Derrick, has again been bought by the Athletics. George Kahler, pitcher of the Naps, says that Joe Jackson makes most of his hits when the pitcher has him in the hole. Jack Lapp, catcher of the Athletics, is one player who doesn't do any kick ing to speak of when umpires don't suit him. Hobe Ferris, formerly of several big league clubs, is playing a star game for the Columbus club of the American association. "They can't stop us," says Danny Murphy, captain of the Athletics. Danny declares that the Mackmen will win in a walk. Rube Oldring's sensational playing has helped the Athletics considerably. Oldring has been hitting and fielding in his usual style. Bill Carrigan has rounded to his proper form, and his great work has had much to do with the recent success of the Red Sox. One of the unique records of the season goes to Ens, the Providence first baseman who had only one put-out in a full nine-inning game. It is not a sure bet Tinker will not be able to make good on his claim of finishing ahead of Evers in the National league race after all. Owner Bob Hedges of the Browns says that the statements that Rickey is to succeed Stovall as manager of the St. Louis team are false. This is the time to predict some baseball shakeups. When the magnates debate whether to put a large bomb beneath the managers. The combined ages of the umpires is authentically stated as 429 years. This includes those估值able gentlemen, Hank O'Day and Bob Emslie. The big contest in Washington just now is to see whether Walter Johnson can win more games than all the rest of the Senator pitchers put together. George Dauss, the young Tiger hurler, owes his recent success to the fact that he finally has mastered control, according to Hughle Jennings. Just now it causes Fred Clarke a pang of regret every time he sees Tommy Leach walk to the plate and drive out a single against his pitchers. Terry Turner is entitled to a considerable space in the list of comebacks. He is playing the best game of his life and is hitting the ball with a vengeance. They say that Jean Dubuc, the French-Canadian master of the change of pace, can hurl great ball for eight innings, but his right arm refuses to work after that. Joe Boehling seems to be the only member of Griffith's corps of young pitchers who has been developed into a good enough hurler to be worked regularly with the veterans. Manager Dode Birmingham of the Naps says that the umpires could avoid a lot of trouble with ball players if they would only admit once in awhile that they are wrong. Jake Daubert, Manager Bill Dahlen's star first sacker, has been doing much to keep the Brooklyn team in the first division. Jake is batting over the .550 mark and fielding in his usual sensational way. Outfielder Kommers, whom Manager Fred Clarke signed up for his Plates, looks like a real find. In the few games that he has played he has been hitting and fielding like a regular. Manager Stoveall has his Browns playing the hit-and-run game, and they work it successfully. Dode Paskert in the outfield and Mike Doolan at short are rated as the real quality of the Phillies in the fielding line. President Dave Fultz of the Players' Protective fraternity wants the club owners to notify a player in writing hereafter when he is released to an other club, whether he is released out sight or on an option. CLEVELAND PHOTO BY FRANK TURNER Despite the fact that the Cleveland players have met with many accidents this season, Manager Birmingham has kept his team right up near the top. Just when the club was sailing along at its best speed two of its star players were disabled. Napoleon Lajoie was forced out of the game on an account of injuries to his hands and then Birmingham himself was laid on the shelf when he broke a bone in his ankle in a game with the New York Highlanders. Connie Mack's white elephants are walloping the pill heavily. Jacinto Calvó, the young Cuban, has decided to spend next winter going school in Washington so that he can master the English language. Billy Gilbert, the old second baseman of the Giants, is now scouting for McGraw. Billy tried the managerial game, but did not meet with much luck. George Willett is said to have mastered a new kind of slow ball teaser that literally floats away from a bat as if repelled by positive electric magnetism. Among the recruits picked up by Brooklyn this season is Bill Wagner, pitcher. Wagner comes from New Orleans in the Southern league, where he made a good record. Frank Schulte missed only two games while recovering from an operation on his head, the nature of which has not been disclosed. Some one said a piece of bone was removed. SPORTING WORLD Jack Weaver's filly, Go Well, won the derby at Latonia, Ky. Fine tennis weather all over the land. "Forty love and a drink of ice water." America will send a team to Athens, Greece, to compete in the Olympic games next year. Tommy Ryan, former middleweight champion boxer, now living in Syracuse, N. Y., is reported to intend to reenter the ring next fall. Bob Burman has challenged Jules Goux, winner of the Indianapolis sweepstakes, to a match race, which may take place on Labor day. Johnny Dundee, the featherweight title challenger, had the time of his life to get a decision over Jack White of Chicago in 20 rounds at the Vernon arena, Los Angeles. Willie Ritchie, lightweight champion, has dismissed Manager Billy Nolan. The champion announced the break, adding that his reasons were "personal and financial." Bombadier Wells at London successfully defended his title as heavyweight champion of England at the National Sporting club by knocking out "Packey" Mahoney of Cork. France won the international golf match between teams of professionals representing France and the United States at La Boulle, France. The Frenchmen beat the American players in all of the four single matches. Leo Goehring of the Mohawk club, New York, smashed the world's record for the standing high jump, clearing the bar at 5 feet 5% inches. This beats the old record by one-half inch. The lower house of the Wisconsin legislature, by a vote of 65 to 3, concurred in the senate amendment to the Hedding bill creating a state boxing commission and legalizing ten round no decision bouts. Watson M. Washburn, Harvard, won the Metropolitan lawn tennis title in singles at the West Side tennis club of New York defeating T. R. Pell, former national 'indoor champion, 1-6, 6-1, 9-7, 6-1. Washburn, nineteen years old, is the youngest player who ever held this championship. Several thousand fight fans were treated to a bloomer in Madison Square garden when "gunboat" Smith of California made George Rodel, the Beer heavyweight, stop in the third round. The California Rugby Football union will invite the New Zealand rugby team to tour the Pacific coast during the coming football season. They are expected to arrive about October 2 and remain for five weeks. An all-star California team may visit New Zealand and Australia by 1914. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, C. SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1913 PARIS HAS TAKEN TO BOUDOIR CAP Fascinating Little Trifle Is Being Worn on Every Possible Occasion. ACTRESSES SET THE FASHION Not the Only Dainty Design That Has Been Copied From the Stage—Dellate Costumes Also Have PARIS.—The success of the boudoir cap may be said to be phenomenal. It has been adopted by women of all ages and it is worn on all sorts of occasions—in bed, when the early cup of tea is taken; in the boudoir or dressing room, while letters are being read and answered; in the afternoon, in conjunction with a picturesque tea gown. Pretty women have discovered that the boudoir cap at its best is a particularly decorative headdress and naturally they have made their own of it. In a cap designed for Mlle. Jeanne Provost, who were it with great success at a recent matine, when she was playing the part of a charming invalid, the crown was composed of hand-painted chiffon which showed a delicate pattern of blurred roses on an ivory ground, writes a correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer. The frills, which fell over the hair, were of plain white chiffon, and a length of black velvet ribbon was arranged in little loops all round the crown, with a full rosette at one side. The tea gown with which this cap was worn was made chiefly of rose Du Barry chiffon. There was a velling of white tulle which took the form of a long tunic and at the waist, thrust into the velvet ribbon ceinture, there was a cluster of roses in the same shades as those painted on the crown of the cap. At the left corner of the mouth, and also on the right cheek near the eye, patches of black velvet were worn; the ensemble was old world and delightful. Velvet Patches Popular. These velvet patches are rapidly becoming a craze. They were introduced some months ago by a beautiful Parisian woman who makes a specialty of her lovely white hair. She is not in reality very gray, but at right she has her hair discreetly powdered and she always wears a patch or two. Our sketch shows a boulder cap of another order. Here you have a genuine Marle Antolete shape, and the trimming belongs to very much the same period—a conventional wreath of roses made entirely of pale gold chiffon with a velvet bow in a dull shade of heliotrope at one side, very low down. The cap itself is made of fine lace in the old yellow shade and planted frills almost cover the hair in front. I have seen some delicious cootees made to accompany these dainty boudoir caps; and these cootees can be worn over plain skirts of soft satin, crepe de chine or crepon. Tulle cootees, bordered with pleated frills, are also in great favor, and the same may be said of little boudoir wraps which look like gigantic ficus and are made of Indian muslin. With the exaggeratedly decollete necks short slaves are worn in the house. Sometimes the arms are covered with fine lace mittens, but far more often they are left bare, save for a velling of tulle illusion. Here I must again mention that scarfs of tulle illusion are worn at all hours of the day and with almost every kind of costume. In the evening, at the theater these little transparent scarfs are ubiquitous; they are entirely becoming. Mile. Cecile Sorel is the grande dame of the Parisian stage. At the Theater Francais she always plays the roles of famous beauties, such as Mme. Du Barry, La Pompadour, etc. For this is her type. And for the mondaines of Paris Mile. Sorel's gowns are always things of, vital importance; the celebrated actress understands the art of picturesque dress better than any other woman of modern days. Best Dressed Parisian Women. The National theater of France is rich as artists, from the dress point of view as well as from the point of view of dramatic art. Mile. Sorel and Mme. Bartet are incomparably the two best dressed women in Paris, each in her own individual way, for Mme. Bartet's toilettes do not resemble in style those of Mile. Sorel. The latter exploits to perfection everything that is magnificent and luxurious and exaggeratedly picturesque. Mme. Bartet on the other hand is an ideal model for the society woman who wishes to be perfectly dressed at all times without undue eccentricity. In the piece "Voulor" Mile. Cecile Sorel wears some charming robes which might easily be turned into ideal tea gowns—for example her clinging robe of ivory tulle veiled in Mallines lace accompanied by a casquin of black chantilly which is vague in form and infinitely becoming. And again in the second act her dress, which is composed of charmeuse in the delicate shade known as "nymphe," which seems white in certain strong light, but which shows faint tints of peach and faintest green. This robe is veiled in Nattier blue tulle and here and there at unexpected points there are deep red roses made of gauze. Still another picturesque robe worn by this actress is made of fine white Mallines lace with a casquin of silver Flow or Electric Current. When an electric current flows through a conductor it is not sent or pushed through like a fluid in a pipe, but is rather headed on from particle to particle. In other words, it is a transfer of electrical energy which can be illustrated by setting up a row of rubber balls tangent to each other. Now, if we strike these balls at one end the energy will be utilized at the other. Here we had no actual flow, and yet the energy was transferred from one end to the other. The basic tulle daintly traced over with silver and gold threads. At the waist there is a superb velvet roin in a strong shade of carmine. Flower Ornaments in Vogue. In one of my recent articles I spoke in detail of these curious flowers which are now so fashionable in Paris. They hardly deserve the name of flowers at all, for they are absolutely unreal, in design as in material. They are simply exotic ornaments which give a splendidly effective finishing touch to an elaborate costume, and they are worn at the waist or breast as though they were in reality flowers. Sometimes these ornamenta, take the form of conventional roses in vivid colors and with strings of tiny diamonds veining the petals and leaves; sometimes they represent water lilies in black velvet. Sometimes they are like sunflowers in shape, but carried out in green or vermilion velvet. They were invented by one of the most eclectic courtiers in Paris as an effective final note for clinging robes of tulle or embroidered chiffon and for this purpose they are having an extraordinary success. Parisian hostesses take special pr'de in searching out or inventing unexpected novelties for the "five o'clock," new floral decorations, new cakes and sandwiches, new table appointments. A very charming idea has been introduced this season by an Austrian lady whose husband holds an important appointment at the Austrian embassy. She receives twice in each month and she takes special pride in having some fresh surprise each alternate Tuesday for her friends. Last Tuesday, for example, her salon was decorated with branches of cherry blossom. Room to Gladden Visitor. The room itself is a poem in white and silver, with furniture coverings of white linen embroidered in Japanese designs carried out in soft silks of subtle tints. It is one of those fresh, summery rooms that gladden a tired visitor on a midsummer afternoon. Everything is simple, but dainty Indian muslins veil the windows, the polished floor is strewn with white Marie Antoinette Boudoir Cap—Cap in Fine "Old Yellow" Lace, With a Wreath of Pale Gold Chiffon Roses Around the Crown—At One Side a Bow, Compossd of Hellotrope Velvet. bear rugs; the one touch of deep color is supplied by a fantastic Japanese cabinet of vermilion and silver lacquer work. And on Tuesday this delightful room was profusely decorated with cherry blossom branches. Tea was served in a Satsuma service, on a gleaming crystal tray; there was a deep border of Venetian gipure on the snowy tablecloth. And then the sandwiches! The hostess had more than once had the honor of enter; during the late King Edward during his visits to Paris, and she was very proud of the fact that the king recently appreciated her tea sandwiches. It will be remembered that the present fashion of making afternoon tea an important meal originated at Sandringham. After a long day on the covots in the hunting field the king's guests knew how to appreciate generous dishes of sandwiches and hot cakes, etc. The fashion has expanded until nowadays the "five o'clock" ranks as an important meal, side by side with lunch and dinner. Last Tuesday I was introduced to a sandwich in which anchovies soused in champagne, chopped cress and the yolk of a hard-boiled egg finally powdered played important roles. I know that what I am saying is absolutely correct, for I had the audacity to ask for specific information—in the cause of humanity at large. These fascinating little sandwiches were cut in long fingers and they were exceedingly appetizing. Floods In London. There was a time when high tide on the Thames when might have emptied London. For there is on record an instance of a general exodus from London through fear of the overflowing the river. It was in 1524 that the astrological experts almost all agreed in predicting that on a certain day the Thames was going to overflow the city, and for weeks beforehand the population was busily engaged in moving itself and its belongings into the country. In fact, the only unmoved person was Father Thames, who on the great day quite failed to rise to the occasion, thereby placing the prophets in some danger of maltreatment at the hands of the deceived emigrants. Living on Four Cents a Day. The Massachusetts couple that raise their own vegetables and live on four cents a day, and yet manage to have in the daily menu doughnuts, pudding, butter, grape jelly, tomato soup, potatoes, buckwheat, milk and tea, must be either the smallest eaters or the best buyers that ever escaped question as to veracity. units which we use are the unit of the rate of flow, or ampere, the unit of electrical pressure, or volt, and the unit of resistance to flow, or the ohm.

The missus came 'ome from jail this afternoon, an' ate up heverthink in th' 'ouse!" --- CAP and BELLS IMAGINATION IS GREAT THING Doctor Who Had Been Attending Old Woman Overlooked Most Important Part of Treatment. Dr. Edward Singer, who has abandoned his post as assistant to a celebrated Chicago specialist because he dislikes the latter's methods, said in New York: "We should not announce cures unless they are real cures. Imagination plays too great a part in a patient's feelings. "Imagination must always be reckoned with in medicine—sometimes as a friend, sometimes as a foe. I know a doctor who treated an old woman for typhoid, and on each visit he took her temperature by holding a thermometer under her tongue. One day, when she had nearly recovered, the doctor did not bother to take her temperature, and he had hardly got 100 yards from the house when her son called him back. "Mother is worse," said the man. 'Come back at once.' "The doctor returned. On his entry into the sick room the old woman looked up at him with angry and reproachful eyes. "Doctor, she said, why didn't you give the older under me tongues today? That always done me more good than all the rest of your trash." -St Louis Globe Democrat NOT HER.

"I understand Mr. and Mrs. Poddersly are thinking of separating." "What's the trouble?" "It seems that Mr. Poddersly be lies in a system of oriental philosophy which is quite different from a system of oriental philosophy believed in by Mrs. Poddersly." "If that's the cause of their disagreement, they ought to be given a divorce for the sake of their neighbors." Lawyer's Choice. A judge and joking lawyer were conversing about the doctrine of transmutation of the souls of men into animals. "Now," said the judge, "suppose you and I were turned into a horse and an ass, which would you prefer to be?" "The ass, to be sure," replied the lawyer. "Why?" asked the judge. "Because I have heard of an ass being a judge, but a horse, never." American View. "So you don't approve of those London suffragettes?" "I don't know much about them," replied Miss Cayenne, "but I certainly feel for them. I can undulate a few men without the use of dynamite is something of a failure." That's Different. Bacon—I understand your friend only earns about $300 a year. Egbert—What are you talking about! Why, he gets $2,000 a year. "I'm not talking about what he gets, but what he earns. He's got a political job, hasn't he?" "I am investigating the conditions that surround poor working girls." "Their lot is often trying." "Indeed it is. Why, half of them go to work without chaperones, Clarice." Father—Young Dobson has asked me for your hand and I have consented. Daughter—You dear old dad! Father—So never mind going to the dentist's tomorrow about that crown work. Wait until you are married. Put on His Mettle. "I wouldn't want you to marry me under protest, dear." "Suppose it was some other fellow who was protesting?" "So the rich old miser's bride is already a sad wife." "Yes, but it's not her fault.
