ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. LAWYERS PICK TAFT AS THEIR CHIEFTAIN Bar Association Unanimously Name Ex-President. BIG MEET COMES TO CLOSE Judge Says Struggle Between Capital and Labor Was Responsible for New Conditions Calling for New Laws. Montreal—Ex-President William H. Taft was elected president of the American Bar Association at the close of the annual meeting. Other officers elected were: Secretary, George Whitelock, Baltimore; treasurer, Frederick E. Wadhams, Albany, N. Y. Executive committee, Hollis R. Bailey, Boston; Aldia B. Brown, Washington; William H. Burgess, El Paso, Tex.; H. John H. Voorhees, Sloux Falls, S. D., and William H. Stoake, Philadelphia. Taft Named Unanimously. The name of Prof. Taft was the only one submitted for president. He was elected by acclamation. Among Canadians elected honorary members were: R. L. Borden, prime minister; Sir Wilfred Laurier; Charles J. Doherty, minister of justice; Sir Charles Fitzpatrick, chief justice, and Sir Lomer Goulin, premier of Quebec. Taft was the chief speaker in the afternoon at a joint session of the section of legal eduction and the association of American law schools. Taft made a strong plea for broader and more comprehensive standards for admission to the bar. He denounced the practice of law solely as means of livelihood apart from social and community aspects of the profession. "In most states the question of admission to the bar is given to the supremc court," said the former president. "It ought to be possible, therefore, to secure a proper standard for the making of new lawyers." Urges Brevity and Simplicity. Papers were read at the bar association symposium by William C. Hook of Kansas, judge of the federal circuit court of appeals; Judge N. Charles Burke of the Maryland court of appeals and William A. Blount of Pensacola, Fla. Judge Hook urged brevity and simplicity. He said: "It is a common remark that the ablest lawyers draft the most concise pleadings, submit the briefest briefs and make the shortest arguments." The struggle between capital and labor, he urged, was responsible for new conditions calling for new laws to govern them. KNOWN AS 'ARTIFICIAL MAN Patient Who Loses Hand, Leg, Eye and Bones Is Supplied Artificial Members by Doctors. Yuma, Mich.-Fred Maybury, 25, went on the operating table Wednesday for twenty-fourth time in ten years. A portion of his liver was removed. Physicians say he will live. He made his surgical debut when his right hand was cut off in a mill machine. An artificial hand was provided. He lost his left leg. An artificial leg was supplied. Next he had appendicitis. Then a shot shot hit him in his right eye and a glass eye replaced it. Necrosis of the bone developed in his left arm and several bones were removed and replaced by metal ones at different times. Maybury is known as "the artificial man." Men Are Hurled to Death. Ottumwa, Ia.—Two persons are dead, a third expected to die and two others seriously injured as the result of a race between automobiles near here. Harry Bottorff of Farson, Ia., driver of one of the machines, was instantly killed when the vehicle turned a double somersault; William Cheek, his brother-in-law, died within two hours, and Mrs. Cheek, a sister of Bottorff, is expected to die. The other two passengers of the machine, Mrs. Harry Bottorff and her young son, Lewis, were seriously injured. Man Meets Horrible Death Elyria, O.—William Bair, 20, of Cleveland, engaged in bailay hain on Arthur Versoy's farm, east of Oberlin, met a terrible death when he stepped on the baler and slipped. Bair shot head first into the baler and the forks of the machine stuffed the man into a four-inch space. Farm hands who had gathered to assist in harvesting were helpless to remove the bale of hay to extricate what was left of the body. Girl In Sad Predicament Columbus, O.-A highly inflammable X-ray skirt worn by Miss Laura Rockeb, 20, was set afire by a match dropped by a smoker while she was standing on a street corner in this city. Miss Rockeb son felt the unusual warmth about her ankles. A minute later, she felt burns about her knees. As there was not much clothing under the new style skirt, which was quickly consumed, it was necessary for her to button her escort's coat about her and return home in a taxi. C HARRIS & EWING Carl Browne has appeared again in Washington. This time he did not arrive at the head of Coey's army as he did years ago, but he invaded the capital with a new kind of aeroplane, which he says will make aerial travel safe. First Section of White Mountain Express Telescopes Second Section of Bar Harbor Express During a Heavy Fog. New Haven, Conn. — Four investigations are under way of the wreck on the New York, New Haven & Hartford railroad that instantly killed 15 persons and injured 45 others, ten of whom died later, bringing the total death list to 25. These investigations are being conducted as follows: 1—By the federal government through Hiram K. Belnap, chief of the bureau of safety appliances of the interstate commerce commission. 2—By the Connecticut state railroad commission. 3—By Coroner Mix of New Haven county. 4—By the New Haven railroad. Worst Disaster on Road. The disaster, which was the worst in the series of disasters that have marked the history of the New Haven road, occurred at Talford's crossing at 6:46 a. m. This point is only nine miles from New Haven, where a new management has just taken charge of the railroad's main office. The new management is headed by President Howard Elliott, who was chosen to succeed Charles S. Mellen when the latter was forced out because of the sharp criticism over the numerous accidents on the road. Mr. Elliott's first official duty was the ordering of a complete investigation of this last disaster. The wreck was caused by the first section of the White Mountain express telescoping the second section of the Bar Harbor express, while the latter train was just leaving a stop signal. The Springfield division, on which the catastrophe occurred, is not equipped with block signals, but has merely the old-fashioned "banjo" signals in place. These signals were condemned a year ago by the state railroad commission, which ordered block signals in their place. Wreck Occurs in Heavy Fog. The accident occurred in a heavy fog and the engineer of the White Mountain train, A. B. Miller, said after the crash that he was unable to see the signal set against him. He was at once arrested. Though Miller had been warned by the railroad officials not to talk, he made this statement: "Owing to the fog I was unable to read the banjo signals along the railroad without running very close to them. We came to the banjo signal a mile north of the New Haven station, which was set against us. I immediately applied the emergency brakes, but the crash came before I could put on the brakes. There was absolutely no chance to stop." Spectators say that the White Mountain train was running at least 40 miles an hour when it hit the train ahead. The same spectators also say that the flagman sent back from the Bar Harbor express went back such a short distance that when the White Mountain train dashed down he was able to warn two porters on the last platform to jump for their lives. Old Quartermaster Is Dead. Washington, D. C.—Capt. John G. Viall, 85, whom Gen Kilpatrick declared the "best quartermaster in the army of the Potomac," is dead here. His body was laid to rest in Arlington National cemetery with full military honors. Capt. Viall fought throughout the civil war and rose through various stages in the army of the Potomac to the rank of chief quartermaster. He was one of the few men who saw Gen. Sheridan's historic ride at Winchester. WESTERN RESERVE CLEVELAND, O. HISTORICAL BOOLEY. 5, 1883, SINCE. EMBER 6, 1913. 1913. GIVE FARMERS CROP NEWS BY TELEGRAPH Uncle Sam Will Make Test Experiment Soon. START SYSTEM THIS MONTH Information Obtained by Government to be Wired to Central Point in State and From There Mailed to All Newspapers. Washington, D. C.—In order to give to the farmer immediate news of detailed crop conditions in his own state, as reported by the government, the department of agriculture about the middle of September will make a test experiment with a new system of circulating crop information by telegraph. The detailed statement giving information by states has hitherto been furnished to the farmers of the several localities in printed form and only by mail. As a result, it took from seven to ten days for this information to reach the farmers in distant states through the post offices. Try Test in Six States. Try Test in Six States. The department will try this test first in six states: Illinois, Missouri, Minnesota, Iowa, Kansas and Texas. The government crop news for each of these states will be telegraphed to a central point in that state. There the information will be quickly reproduced and mailed to all the newspapers in the state. In this way every paper, not merely the large dailies, but the county seat and small town papers, even in the most distant states, should be in possession of this information within from 12 to 18 hours after it is issued. As far as possible the information will be sent out so as to reach the small weeklies in time for use in their Thursday and Friday editions. Valuable Information. Valuable Information. This new service has been effected through a co-operative arrangement between the bureau of statistics and the weather bureau officials. In each state the weather bureau has a man provided with modern facilities which will enable him to print and mail the telegraphed facts to every newspaper within a few hours. The printed matter thus circulated will give these newspapers: (a) a full list of the crops; (b) the average condition of each crop for ten-year periods in that particular state; (c) the condition of the state crops for September 9. In the adjoining column will be given the same data for the United States, so that the farmers who read these notices can compare the crops in their states as of September 9, with the ten-year averages of their own state, and in the same way with the average condition throughout the United States on September 9 and for ten years. Cost Will be Nominal. These data are to be supplied for the reason that the condition of crops actually within a state has more effect on prices within that state than the conditions for the country at large. The cost of this service, it is found, will be only nominal. All that will be necessary will be to telegraph the figures for two columns, and this can be done at a cost of not more than 75 cents for each state. If the contemplated experiment is a success and the newspapers co-operate by publishing this special service information, the plan will be extended eventually to serve the farmers of all the states. FOUR MEET DEATH IN CRASH Two Instantly Killed, Others Die in Hospital, as Result of Collision on Race Track. Nashville, Tenn. — Four persons were killed when four cars collided on the fourth lap of a 25-mile free-for-all automobile race at Cumberland park. Dead: John Sherrill, driver of a Marquette Buick automobile. Pete Bridges, his mechanician. Billy Sherrod, driver of a Stutz car. Josh Brown, his mechanician. While the race was in progress a small negro boy attempted to cross the track. Clyde Donivan, driving a Studebaker, swerved from his course, in order to avoid running down the boy. The automobile, which was traveling 50 miles an hour, smashed a wheel and collided with the glance. The other cars, which were following closely, crashed into the wrecked car, all piling up into a mass of twisted steel and splintered wood. Donivan escaped with only minor injuries. The bodies of Sherill and Bridges were found buried in the wreckage, both having been almost instantly killed. Sherrod and Brown were both breathing and were rushed to a hospital, where they died. Loops the Loop In Aeroplane Paris, France—Looping the loop in his aeroplane, while 1,500 feet in the air, was the sensational feat performed at Juvisy by the French aviator Pegoud. When Pegoud had reached a height of about 3,000 feet, he turned the nose of his machine straight towards the earth and darted downward, with his motor going at full speed. After plunging 1,200 feet at a frightful velocity, Pegoud quickly changed his rudder, causing the aeroplane to turn a complete vertical circle. --- At the national reunion of the Army of the Philippines and the American Veterans of Foreign Service, held in Denver, these societies were consolidated as the Army of the Philippines, Cuba and Porto Rico. Judge Rice W. Means of Denver was elected commander-in-chief of the consolidated society. Threatens to Cost New York State $100.000. Compensation for Nine Members of the Assembly, the "Steering Committee," Would Add $10,000 to the Expense of Trial. Albany, N. Y.—The Sulzer high court of impeachment threatens to cost the state $100,000. It became known here certain senators are contending that the senators taking part in the proceedings that begin on Sept. 18 to remove the governor will be entitled to the pay received the judges of the court of appeals, who participated in the trial; $40 a day—instead of $10 their pay as legislators. Senatorial Expense Heavy. At the lower basis the item of expense to the state for compensation of the 49 senators would amount to $490 a day and at the higher rate of $1,960 a day. The latter figure would make the senatorial expense item alone for a 30-day session $60,000. The compensation for the nine members of the assembly, "the steering committee," at the same rate would add $10,000 and the expense of attendants, witnesses, stenographers and other necessary adjuncts to the court are likely to bring the total up to $100,000. TO CONNECT LAKE AND RIVER Barge Canal to Start at Toledo Is What Ohioans Want, Think the Legislative Commissioners. Toledo, O.—A barge canal nine feet deep and from 80 to 150 feet wide, extending from Lake Erie at Toledo to the Ohio river at Cincinnati on the route of the Miami and Erie canal, is what the people of Ohio want, according to the impression gained by the legislative canal commission in its three-week tour under instructions from the legislature to determine what should be done with Ohio's system of artificial waterways. The tour terminated at Toledo Sunday. A favorable recommendation for such a canal and for an exhaustive survey by competent engineers to determine the best way to build one is expected to be made by the commission as the result of its investigation of the physical condition of the canal system and its sounding of public sentiment. Sues to Recover His Own Ear. Denver, Col.—"It is not because of the intrinsic value of the ear, but the associations connected with it. I have had the ear ever since I was born," was the reason assigned by Charles Turner for seeking to recover his right ear, bitten off by W. M. Hart in a saloon brawl. To earn a reward promised by Turner boys searched for the missing ear without success. Lima, O.—Innocently pointing a loaded rifle at his 12-year-old aunt, Walter Meesle, 5, shot and perhaps fatally wounded Lucile Long. "Let's play burglar," he liped. "Look this way, Lucile." As the girl turned a shot rang out and she sank to the ground. The bullet penetrated her left lung. Wilson Reads Detective Stories. Washington, D. C.—Boy readers of the forbidden books usually characterized as "dime novels" may take heart of hope. President Woodrow Wilson, author and statesman, reads detective stories for recreation and the more lurid they are the better he likes them. With the same energy he uses in statecraft, the president devours volume after volume in his leisure moments. His family and friends joke him about his propensity but always see that a fresh supply is on hand after a busy day. Sues to Recover His Own Ear. Shoots Twelve-Year-Old Aunt UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BRAIN NOT INACTIVE Remarkably Clever Work Done by Insane Persons. Many of Those Confined in Asylums, Without Hope of Permanent Cure, Earn Large Incomes by Producing Works of Art. "I am sure," said a well known mind doctor to a New York Press writer, "you would be amazed at the clever work that is done by hundreds of men and women who are hopelessly insane; some of it at least as good as that done by same people who earn large incomes. "Among my patients today is one man whose skill with the brush would almost surely qualify him for high rank if he were only in possession of his senses. There are few of the great exhibitions which do not contain one or more of his canvases, and he has often received as much as $500 for a picture. And yet this man is as 'mad as a hat' the victim of terrible delusions and subject to violent homicidal attacks. "Naturally, his work is unreliable. One week he will produce a masterly and beautiful picture, with genius in every line of it. The next he will paint the most weird picture, a perfect nightmare in color, which, curiously enough, he always considers a masterpiece. "And this man is no exception, for there are scores of lunatics who are quite excellent artists, and many of them make good incomes by their art. Several years ago an exhibition of pictures, the work of insane patients of the Bethlehem Royal hospital, was open to the public, and I can assure you many of them are beautiful works of art. "There are hundreds of other lunatics who are just as skillful in music and literature. One of my own patients, who is hopelessly mad on one subject and who is a perfect musical genius, has composed operas and symphonies and scores of songs which have won considerable fame for him have brought him a small fortune. I know of many other insane men and women who earn small and regular incomes in the same way. "There are, similarly, hundreds of the insane who make a hobby, and sometimes a profitable one, of writing. Indeed, many of our asylums have magazines which are almost entirely the work of the patients. "Even in our public asylums there are hundreds of patients who make money by skilled work of one sort or another. Thus, in a country asylum I know well one man who does the most exquisite water color sketches, for which he receives from $15 to $50 each, and he has a market for as many as he can produce. Unfortunately, like so many mad artists, he is often unable or unwilling to finish a picture, and thus at least four-fifths of his work is wasted. "Another patient, a former sea captain, spends his time in making the most perfect tiny models of ships, carved with infinite skill and pains from bone or ivory, for each of which he gets $5 to $10. For one very elaborate and beautiful model of a cathedral he was paid as much as $150, and it was certainly cheap at the price. A third patient in the same asylum earns many dollars a year by cutting the cleverest silhouettes out of colored paper. "The women, too, are just as clever as the men. I know one demented woman who writes the most charming books for children and verses for Christmas cards. Another who makes a good income, in her lucid hours, by illustrating books, and a third who draws several hundred dollars a year from royalties on her plays. And there are countless women in our public asylums who earn money in scores of ways, such as knitting, lace making, straw plaiting and leather work." Shoemaking as a Pastime. Shoemaking as a craft. Smart women in Paris are said to be taking up shoemaking as a hobby. This is reverting to a London craze of over a century ago. May 4, 1808. Mrs. Charles Calvert notes in her diary: "I begin a new science today—shoe-making. It is all the fashion. I had a master with me for about two hours, and I think I shall be able to make very nice shoes." In the same month Lady Sarah Spencer writes to her brother: "I am today in a state of great vanity. I have, to my eternal glory be it spoken, made a pair of shoes. There is for you! So if all other trades fall I shall certainly establish myself cross-legged at the corner of an alley and earn a livelihood in the midst of leather, awls and hammers. In the evening Harriett and I divide our time between music and shoemaking, which is now the staple trade of the family." Florence Nightingale's Hope Florence Nightingale's Hope. In the writings of Florence Nightingale occurs this paragraph: "We are only on the threshold of nursing. In the future which I shall not see, for I am old, may a better way be opened! May the methods by which every infant, every human being, will have the best chance of health, the methods by which every sick person will have the best chance of recovery, be learned and practiced! Hospitals are only an intermediate stage of civilization, never intended, at all events to take in the whole sick population. May we hope that the day will come when every mother will become a health-nurse, when every poor sick person will have the opportunity of a share in a distinct sick-nurse at home."

Cleveland SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 6, 1913. The Gazette thanks its contemporaries and other friends for the many very kind and complimentary things they have said and are still saying anent our thirty-first birthday. We thoroughly appreciate them, and heartily reciprocate the friendly feeling manifested by all. --- We wish to call the attention of those of our ministers, church and temperance people and advocates who went to Luna Park on Aug. 4 and 18 to the following, published, Monday, in a local daily paper: "Drinks were sold at Luna park, Sunday night, to anybody who was willing to take a trip through two dark and damp tunnels. The thirsty had to go through the German village, which was dry, through a subterranean passage under an alley in the rear of the regular bar. Here they ran up against a high canvas wall, passed through a door guarded by two men and a bull dog, through another tunnel to a bar. Two bartenders were kept busy," While the National Negro Business League was in session at Philadelphia, Pa., recently, the following telegram was seat to the editor of the Christian Recorder of that city, by Rev. Dr. A. J. Carey of Chicago, Ill. "I believe it is the duty of Business League to voice strong protest against segregation of employees of National Government by race or color. This segregation is public insult to million loyal citizens and the representatives ought to denounce it in no uncertain tone. Foregoing wire to League; push matter." Did Dr. Booker T. Washington (president) and his league heed Dr. Carey and the race's call? Some one answer! "JIM-CROW" CARS IN OHIO AGAIN. Our good friend, Editor W. P. Dabney, of the Cincinnati (O.) Union, in his issue of July 19, admitted that "jim-crow" cars were being "permitted to roll" into that city, "contrary to law and decency" and that, as a result, on the Sunday night previous to the date mentioned above, a quiet and inoffensive member of the race, one Moses Holman, was shot and stabbed to death in a C. & O. railroad coach, while passing through it in an effort to get into the jim-crow car. Two or three times, in the last dozen years, we have called upon the State Railroad Commission, to stop the running of "jim-crow" cars into Ohio, and our wishes in the matter were complied with. Surely Editor Dabney, who is perfectly able to attend to this matter in a like manner, has done so since July 19. He is too good and thorough a race man to wait for some one, out of Cincinnati, to do it again. How about it, Brother Dabney? --- GOV. COLQUITT INCONSISTENT. "Jacob Egberth" of Chicago, one of our most aggressive and active white friends, in pleading the race's cause in the newspapers of that city and the country, had the following in a daily paper of that city, recently. It is so pertinent and timely that we reproduce it: "Anent your leader of Aug. 30 on the Mexican affair, allow me to inquire whether Governor Colquitt of Texas, who now demands that the United States should not stand idly by while American citizens are being murdered in the 'rebellious republic,' is the same governor who did 'stand idly' by when in his own state, during a mob outbreak in Palestine, a number of its citizens (I believe that the governor a large number injured and a still larger number summarily driven from their homes by lynch mob violence. "It is true these Americans were Negroes, but they were as much citizens of Texas and the United States as those of our own race. Indeed, the better choice of papers and the leg of the investigator in an investigation and the punishment of the culprits, but Governor Colquitt frustrated this demand by saying he would do nothing, since such breaks were liable to occur." "RACE PREJUDICE MUST GO!" In a Heartst paper, whose editor promlugated the fine ethical concept, that race prejudice was inculcated by nature, as evinced in a case of a white boy fighting a Colored lard before the window of the house in which John Temple Graves enunciated his conception of Christianity and democracy, we read a communication by a Christian, whose daughters have married Jews, that "Race prejudice must go!" This is good ethical doctrine and includes more than merely the prejudice of religion! In days, when a president of the United States ("a democratic Republic"), endorses segregation of white and Colored employees of the government, based upon equality of all before the law, this slogan, "Race prejudice must go!" sounds well, is timely beyond any other and, if honestly meant, honestly adopted, and honestly applied, it will be a blessing all around. President Wilson, the "southron statesmen," northern cowards or books, ministers of Christ's religion and Jewish Rabbi take notice! Let us be sane and just—rather than cautes. TIME TO DEMAND A HALT! The frequency with which OUR men and women, particularly, have been killed, and crippled for life, in Central avenue, and elsewhere in this city, in recent weeks and months, by automobiles, is not only getting monotonous but it is "getting on the nerves" of many of our people. That is why the mob-demonstration in Central avenue Sunday evening, just after the "Leader-News" auto, while going at a terrific rate of speed, all but crushed out the life of one of our good women. Tuesday evening, Fred F. Scott of E. 90th street, a barber at the Hollenden, was run over by a "Leader-News" auto, in front of the hotel, and died Wednesday morning, at Huron Road hospital. Mr. Scott came here about ten or fifteen years ago from Ann Arbor, Mich., by way of Toledo, where he practiced dentistry a short time. He joined St John's A. M. E. church last Sunday afternoon. He leaves a wife and two daughters, one young and the other (Florence) being married and living in New York state. He was the second of the race to be within three days by a "Leader-News" auto within the prejudice Southerners on these two daily papers. These the woman, a member of Antoch Baptist church, struck, Sunday evening, when on her way home from services, is hovering between life and death, at St. Vincent's hospital. It is high time a delegation of our ministers, in an effort to protect their members, were calling on the mayor and chief of police of this city and demanding that the daily papers' autos be compelled to respect the speed limit laws in common with all others in this community. Both of these terrible accidents, as were nearly all of the others in recent weeks and months, are absolutely inexcusable. It was only one evening last week that that same auto came near striking the editor of this paper in Central avenue near E. 33d street. It was being driven at the same terrific rate of speed and although the chauffeur must have seen us for some time while approaching, he failed to sound any alarm whatever. Mayor Baker and Chief of Police Rowe should enforce the laws against auto-speeding, even if the latter are owned by daily newspapers. LYNCHING THE WRONG MAN. Youngstown, O.—The following ex cellent and timely editorial is from the Chicago (III.) Journal of recent date: "Some months ago a Mississippi mob lynched a Negro, who protested to the last his innocence of the crime for which he was killed. A little later his protests were proved true; the real murderer was arrested in a distant part of the state and made full confession. in horror at having helped to murder an innocent man. One of the men killed him himself. He would think such a tragedy would give pause, even to a mob. Yet the same irremedial blunder has just been repeated in Georgia. On Monday of this week a Negro was lynched for the murder of a wealthy planner. A considerable number of citizens tried to save the doomed man from the mob, declaring their belief in his innocence; but they were swept aside and the luckless black man was hanged. Yesterday his innocence was proved by the arrest and conviction to the mob. It remains to be seen whether anyone in the Georgia mob has conscience enough to commit suicide from remorse at his share in the evil work. That is the astounding feature of a mob—its assumption of infallibility. The impulse of vengeance is common to all mankind, but when men are acting singly or with deliberation they take pains to have their rights in the case. With all the safeguards which legal procedure throws around an accused man, innocent persons are sometimes convicted and sent to prison. How immeasurably greater the chances of making such a mistake when a crazy mob sets itself up as judge, jury, court of appeals and executioner." PRESIDENT WILKINSON CON- GRATULATES Orangeburg, S. C., Aug. 25, 1913. Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gatzette Friend Smith:—As one of the many boys helped by The Gazette in their struggles for an education, with a deep remembrance and sincere appreciation of its benefaction, I wish to join in the chorus of congratulations on this, the thirty-first birthday of one of the staunchest tribunes of the Afro-American press.

Wilkinson. President, State Colored College. BEATS THE WORLD'S RECORD. Hartford, Ct.-Howard P. Drew, the Springfield (Mass.) high school African American spinner, on Monday equaled the world's record in the 100-yard dash on Charter Oak track at the Connecticut fair, going the distance in nine and three-fifths seconds. Five stop watches can catch the time as this time was officially announced, but it was given out later that two stop watches had caught nine and two-fifths seconds. So, as a matter of fact, Drew beat the world's record. A few minutes later Drew ran the 220 yards in twenty-two seconds flat. Our advertisers want your trade.

DOINGS OF THE RACE New York city's second Afro-American policeman has just been appointed Louisiana and North Carolina had a lynching last week. Both were the usual outrages of justice and decency. We heartily congratulate Hon Harry C. Smith, the fighting editor of The Cleveland Gazette, on being able to the desire of the late Edith thirty consecutive years. It certainly takes a man of nerve and energy to accomplish the feat—Portland (Ore.) Advocate. The Cleveland Gazette of Cleveland, Ohio, has rounded out 31 years of service and has just celebrated that event. Hon. Harry C. Smith is the editor of The Gazette, and it is his own personality and force of charm. He has made a normal known and read far and wide.

The Gazette is a bold defender of the rights of the Negro race, and always rings true. We congratulate Mr. Wishaw him and The Gazette many more years of useful service—Colored Alabamian, Montgomery. The Cleveland, Ohio, Gazette has appeared weekly on time for 31 years, and the Hon. Harry C. Smith, its publisher and editor, gave in the last issue a short resume of his achievements. We congratulate him and his journal and wish them permanent success. Mr. Smith has always fearless and confident, ever hazard—and many times at the expense of his personal popularity. He was at one time a member of the Ohio state legislature where he championed the cause of the race with untiring zeal. There are few like him in this country and we hope that he and the great work he is doing will be appreciated.—Pittsburgh (Pa.) Courier.

Brother Smith, the able editor, has won his spurs in the battle for equal rights, and a law in that behalf is now upon the statute books of Ohio. He has carried the banner for wars and his paper has been a veteran in the warfare. That it has survived for 30 years bespeaks much for its editor and the cause of human progress in which it has been no small factor—Omaha (Neb.) Enterprise.

Pugilist Receives Remarkable Greeting from Great Crowds in The Streets—They Believe Him the Victim of Prejudice—Audience in Hall Refuses to Hear Actress Who Refused to Appear With Him. (By Cable to The Chicago Tribune). London, Aug. 25.—The man in the street showed tonight in an emphatic manner that he does not share in the hostility to Jack Johnson, the American pugilist. He regards the Negro as the victim of persecution which he has endured, standing the announcement that Jack's appearance had been postponed, the Euston music hall and South London music hall, where he had been billed to appear, were densely crowded tonight, and there were great mobs outside of each. His first turn was at the Euston. Here there was a great uproar from the moment the curtain went up. The audience devised and shouted for him. He stood up and shouted for him. They refused to listen to two comediennes who had refused to appear if Jack did, but in consequence of the postponement of his appearance, had agreed to go on. The audience drowned the efforts of these two A young women with whistles, cat-calls and hisses, and they were obliged to retire, and the whole show was held up. Presently a roar of cheering outside the hall announced that something was happening. Johnson's car had arrived and he was all smiles. The crowd yelled with delight at his appearance and climbed all over the car in an effort to shake hands behind the door, and locked by the mob that got on all parts of the car, and the police had great difficulty in clearing a pathway for the pugilist to the entrance. He and his friends marched in under the leadership of Manager Loxer of the hall. The lights were down but the audience got a glimpse of Jack and cheered frantically for several minutes. They also shouted words of encouragement to the pugilist, a few prejudiced American dissenters vainly by protections against the law, and bowing for several minutes. Then he left and tried to escape the crowd by taking a taxicab at another entrance. This was useless, however, and the police had another Job in ridding the car of those who were clinging to it. When at length the car was free and started bungee traction, the attendance. There was similar scenes at the South London music hall. Here Johnson made a speech in which he said, among other things: "My only crime is that I beat Jeffries." When he left there were scenes similar to those at his departure from Euston hall—Chicago Tribune, Aug. 26. London, Eng. Aug. 26.—The appearance of Jack Johnson, world's heavy weight champion, in this city following the enforced "postponement" of his music hall engagements because of public and particularly theatrical sentiment against the big champion, has caused a number of English leaders to come to Jack's support. Among them are the British bury, who declares that Johnson should not be made a scapegoat merely because he defeated a white man for the title. On the contrary, the marquis asserts that Johnson is fairly entitled to all the honors. He ex- Paris, France, Aug. 27.—The Journal says that Jack Johnson, the American pugilist, has purchased a house at Joinville-Le-Pont, six miles from Paris, where he intends to reside for the rest of the required time to become a naturalized citizen of France.

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir: "The breaking-in process" is always going on, and there is nothing new about it. When Frederick Douglass, "out of slavery," went to New York seeking employment, about the first discovery he made was that Irishmen who came to this country without any prejudice against. Negroes were taught by American and Negroes in their rural enemies, because the free Negroes were getting jobs which they (the Irish) ought to have, American prejudice is taught to the immigrant today. It appeals to the selfish side of his nature. It develops baseness and race-hatred where it was unknown before. It is "the breaking-in process"—a peculiar American institution. It adjusts the thumb-screw and the straight-jacket on innocent and helpless immigrants who are ignorant of the peculiar institution of the United States and preserved here. A northern man who settles in the south soon learns something about "the breaking-in process." If he stays, he learns to write copy (for the northern papers) which the south applauds. "Trust in God and the white people, and you will always be a winner," is Gov. Cole Blease's advice to the impaired Gov. Sulzer. It sounds so "southron." Is there no faith in Negroes? Othmar.

Rumor has it, that it is a minister of one of our largest local churches was drunk again last week. There is talk, by some of his members, of an effort to oust him. Last fall, it was current to rumored, that the same minister for some years was found in a sarcophy to hail him home in an express wagon. This same minister favored the Luna Park "celebrations." Miss L. B. Newman of Monongahela City, Pa., visiting Mrs. R. H. Scott of Aetna Rd. for two weeks, leaves Saturday, miss the lesson on Sunday, which is held Mr. and Mrs. Scott's daughter, Miss Idia, for three weeks, was called home by her sister Ada's accident last Wednesday. Mrs. Scott spent Labor Day with Mr. and Mrs. George Hanshaw of Norwalk. When Garrett A. Morgan refused to join with Tom Fleming and others in drawing a color-line on the whites who desired to enter the "White City" or "Manhattan Beach" park, recently he did the proper thing and should be praised for it. We must not draw color-lines against our own or others, but must fight all such insulting action. 内衣串 S. E. Woods delivered to Mr. James Anderson of Jellico, Ky. $2,160; balance in settlement of a large business transaction in which Mr. Woods represented Mr. Anderson. The latter is a member of the race, and did not know his rights. He is, therefore, several hundred dollars better off for having Mr. Woods represent him. Mrs. R. W.

E. school, "Erw," as he is a friend here, by a host of friends here, was for years in charge of the local department of The Gazette while stationary clerk of the Big Four Ry., in this city, years ago. He is in excellent health. Mrs. Mary L. Arnett of E. 36th St. entertained Thursday in honor of Mrs. Augustine; Cincinnati; Miss Florence Evans and Miss Clara Gaines, of Xenia, and Miss Katherine Roberts, of Buffalo. Luncheon and cards featured the event. Misses Nina Chafin, Margaret Dean, Edith Wright, Ruth Dean, Cornelia Bedford, Lavina Early, Amy Bailey McQueen and Clara Bailey asisted. --- More than 100 angry men fought with two policemen Sunday night in an effort to drag Donald McLean, 2141 E. 19th St., from his automobile, after it had run down and infuriated Mrs. Hester Peter, 39th St. S. and Central St. E. Three times the mob charged the auto to be beaten back by the clubs of Sergt. Blizil of th. Carr. School and Patrolman Stewart of the third. The officers had heard the commotion and ran to the rescue of the chauffeur. They stood off the crowd until the third precinct emergency patrol arrived. In the face of the police reinforcements, the crowd scattered. The woman was removed to Charity hospital, where it is still fearful she fourth precinct. Lean was taken to the held on an open charge, pending the outcome of Mrs. Freter's injuries. A few evenings before the same "Daily News" auto came near running down the editor of The Gazette near E. 33d St. It was being run at a terrific rate of speed, as usual LUNA PARK AGAIN! 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 will attempt to enrich the treasure of the Luna Park management at least once a year, usually in August and September, 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 go truckle to anything or anybody in an effort to make a few "tainted" dollars, for themselves or anything or anybody else in such a miserable way? That the alleged "emancipation celebration," on August 4th, and the "picnic" on August 14th, were not the great successes anticipated, and the "celebration," last year, was a failure, is due to the fact that the great mass of manly and womanly Afro-Americans of this community refused to attend them. Last year, led by the lamented Dr. G. A. Sissle, and other members, our Ministers' Alliance of this city was active in the support of the position The Gazette has maintained all along in this matter. This year the Alliance failed to take the loyal and aggressive stand of last year, but individual members of it, like Drs. Chas, Bundy and H. C. Bailley, spoke out against the "celebration" like MEN, from their pulpils, prior to August 4th. All honor to them—loyal, fearless and manly race men. Again, the privileges accorded Negroes in that park, even on August 4th and August 8th, were limited. We are informed that the dancing pavilion and roller-skating rink were not opened to them until 6 p. m. and 9:45 p. m., respectively, and that the swimming pool was closed to them both days and evenings, as was the case last year. The crowd in attendance was away below expectations, and the attendance at the dinner of the "association" that promoted the August 4 affair, also fell short, there being many empty plates. The fact that white men and women eagerly entered upon the floor to dance among the Negroes, each evening, in spite of the effort to keep them off, stamps as false the statement that (whites) object to dancing beside or with our people, in this city. It is this false premise assumed by prejudiced managementes that cause color lines to be drawn in such public places; and it is our people who, with the law favoring them, permit them to be drawn day after day, and year after year, SHAME, O SHAME! The whole conduct of the entertainments, at Luna Park, August 4 and August 18, showed the indifference of the Negro managementes, to ward their rights, and the courtesies due their manhood (?) and citizenship. And still our short-sighted Negroes continue "fattening frogs to feed snakes"; for, two more of our organizations are announcing "outings," this and next month, at colorline Luna Park where they are welcomed on some "special" or particular day out of the three hundred and sixty-five days of the year, and even then, in a restricted or limited way. May God help them "to see the light as they should" and stop their efforts at such "business" for any purpose whatsoever. PROF. GEO. W. COOK CONGRATU. LATES! Washington, D. C., Aug. 1, 1913. Hon H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette. Dear Sir: Allow me to congratulate you upon the completion of the thirtieth year of the life of The Gazette. It could only be through great ability, coupled with persistence, that could keep the paper up to the excellent standing that it has, considering the class of people with whom you have to deal. It would be to see that you keep to the force the great ability and character of Joseph Benson Foraker. I think there would be a row in Congress to-day, if he were there, on the segregation question. This whole matter has got to get worse before it gets better, and the sooner it gets worse the better. The great storm did much damage. There are 465 panes of glass out in Howard University, and the campus so far, the trees are concerned is weak. Fortunately, no personal damage was done. With best regards, I am Yours very truly, GEO. WM. COOK, Secretary, Howard University.

Anderson Clifford Does the Joltting. Having met Booker T. Washington's self-praising body years ago and being a bit curious to know if any change had taken place for the book, he went to Music Fund Hall week, we went to Music Fund Hall Thursday night, to find that if anything, it is worse. How absurd for men to come from all sections of the South on "jimcrow" cars, or chartered ones, to prevent it, and from sections where they are disfranchised, lynched and shot down like dogs, and hold up that section for praise. Not a word was said against these curses, not a word was said against the nation's capital and especially at the Nation's Capital—Napier himself was as dumb as a claim on the way he had been treated. "Back to the farm!" back to the farm! "back to the farm!!" was the slogan. The Negroes have been on the farms of America for over three hundred years. For two hundred and forty-eight years, they were thereon as slaves and since that time they have conditioned than it was possible for them to be as slaves; for now and for years and years past they go in debt to start, and work hard, late and early and try all they can to save; they never get out of debt. If, however, they have too much sense and see through this method of "back to the farm" and will not acquiesce, to be to prison, from where they are placed in penance pens, where none but God knows how they suffer. Why did they not condemn such brutality as above referred to?—Martinsburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press. Says Slavery Still Exists Says Slavery Still Exists. Washington, D.C. - Slavery in the full mull of the decision exists throughout the Philippines, even in the city of Manila, and peonage is general in the islands, according to a special report Commissioner Dean Worchester has made to the insular government. Filipinos in some parts of the islands commonly capture children and sell them into slavery for profits; some are sent to China, where they are dressed in the native fashion. Some children have been enticed from their homes by slave agents upon promises of scholarships in schools, and some of these, in an instance which Mr. Worchester reports in detail, were sold and others were armed out for money. He cites the case of a 15-year-old girl, bought for $10,000 by the supreme court of the islands released the slave trader on the ground that no crime had been committed because no physical force had been used.

New York.—This is the season of ‘the wholesale milliner’s harvest. When the summer hats are just be- ginning to be marked down in the retail shops, the wholesaler has near- ly forgotten straws and is deep in the boxes containing velvet and beay- er and felt shapes and sorting and pricing the newest trimmings for fall bats, ‘There are many buyers from out of town, and some of the prettiest of stuffs and the most attractive of con- servative shapes are shown, Neither colors nor extreme styles are settled this early, but since we are rapidly growing away from the provincial idea that just one color is the color of the season, it makes lit Ue difference so long as a late tone of all the good colors can be had. It As evident from the first hats shown that the prevailing idea of smartness is, the less,trimming the better, In fact, no smart hat is dependent upon fits trimming. The old idea of soften. ing this place and filling out that with promiscuous trimmings is passe, Every shape should suit the face ‘without trimming; it should be be- coming.

Candle Light for Bedroom. ‘A lovely bedroom light comes from a candle held in a tin candlestick, strange us the statement sounds, says the New York Sun. The candlestick is about foot high, built on slender, straight limes and enameled in pale green or blue, deep yellow, pink or gray. A glass globe is firmly held by the stick; the globe measures about six inches at its widest diameter, and bulges from both top and bottom. The globe supports a shade to match the candlestick, and made either of cre- tonne or of silk under woven splints. A reddish brown splint shade lined with deep yellow silk, which was used on ong of the tin candlesticks, costs a dollar. It could be used, also, on a ‘small electrie or off lamp. a Sa ee When the sun is shining on your fommence to clean on the lower step chd mo backward £0 a8 not to leave footprints.
