THIRTY-FIRST YEAR. NO. 49. IN UNION THE LEGISLATURE WILSON REFUSES TO BE CHECKLED President Tells Women Suffrage Question Is One for Each State to Settle. GIVES HIS PERSONAL OPINION Delegation, Led by Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, Wife of the Pure Food Champion, Descends on the White House in Parade a Mile Long. Washington, D. C.—President Wilson emphatically told a great delegation, of women suffragists that the "votes for women" question is one for the individual states to settle and is not for the federal government to act upon. Then he refused to allow the suffrage advocates to heckle him. He abruptly turned on his heel and walked out of the White House East room as they were preparing to volley questions at him. The suffrage delegation, led by Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, wife of the pure food champion, as their marshal, had descended upon the White House in a parade a mile long to keep their appointment with the president. Won't Be Cross-Examined. Before the president turned on his heel he said: "I do not consider it proper for me to submit myself to a cross-examination in the light of what I have already said." Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, Mrs. Ellen Logan and Rhetta Childe Dorr had all made brief appeals asking the president to favor a constitutional amendment granting suffrage. Miss Dorr had told the president that at their last meeting he had refused to indorse suffrage because it had not been dealt with in the Democratic platform. "Yet you have since indored the toll repuls bill in opposition to that platform" she said. "I think that times have changed and that under present conditions you can now take a definite stand." "Bound by Platform." "No one could fail to be impressed by this great company," began the president. "I have stated to you once before that as the leader of a party I am bound by the principles adopted by it. "You now ask me for my personal stand on this question. Perhaps it would be more serviceable if I stated to you that the Baltimore convention did not pass upon this question of suffrage because the delegates to that convention believed it was a matter for the states themselves to act upon first. "Personally I believe that this is a matter for settlement by the individual states and not by the federal government." "As leader of my party I have stated my position frankly. I believe the question of suffrage is for the states to decide, and you have no reason to be discouraged in view of the success already attained." MEET DEATH IN A FIGHT WITH MOSLEMS, SEQUEL TO ASSASSINATION OF ROYALTY. Vienna.—Overriding martial law as though it were a mere bubble, hostile forces clashed in a series of desperate riots, sequel to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg. At Mostar, chief city of Herzegoviana, 200 Servians were slaughtered in a terrific hand-to-hand battle with Moslems. Coincident with the rioting the city was set on fire. All Bosnia and Herzegoviana seems maddened and bloodshed and arson are reported from various localities. At Sarago, while preparations were being made to ship the bodies of Sunday's double assassination to this city, a mob wrecked the homes of three Servians in which bombs had been found. John Barleycorn Walks Plank. Washington, D. C.-At midnight on every ship in the United States navy John Barleycorn walked the plank and all the fighters from the superdreadnaughts to the tiniest submarines entered upon the period of the long drought. Secretary of the Navy Daniels has spoken and old King Neptune was powerless to reverse his order, Champagne, Scotch, Bourbon, burgundy, Rhine wine, even beer—all of them go. Their places will be taken by grape juice, sarsaparilla, lemon pop, ginger ale and nice cold condensed milk. Chokes Babes to Death. Baltimore, Md.-Grazed by ill health and other misfortunes, Mrs. Marie Finck, 42, strangled two of her children to death. The dead children are: John Finck, four months old, and Carrol Finck, five years. When a policeman entered the home he found Mrs. Finck crying aloud that she had fulfilled her promise to the Almighty. She told the police later she had been directed in a vision to stay all of her six children, and it had been her intention to end the lives of them all.

ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1914. NOTABLE CAREER OF DR.W.P.HAYES Valuable Reforms Perfected In Short Space of Time. SCHOLABLY AND ENERGETIC Pastor of Mount Olivet Baptist Church in New York Is One of the Most Active Uplifters of His Countrymen. Enlivened Lifes of His Church Wonderfully. New York.—Rev. Dr. W. P. Hayes, one of the most scholarly and progressive of the younger school of preachers, celebrated his third anniversary as the pastor of Mount Olivet Baptist church with appropriate and special anniversary exercises, Sunday, May 17. The day was notable in the history of the church, and the exercises were the most brilliant seen in connection with its history. Dr. Hayes' anniversary was celebrated in connection with the thirty-sixth anniversary of the church, and during the long history of the congregation it has never been in better condition than at the present time. During the three years' pastorate of Dr. Hayes he has brought about a complete reformation in the life of the church, until today the new features inaugurated by Dr. Hayes make Mount Olivet Baptist church one of the most thoroughly modern churches conducted by the race in this country. Dr. Hayes came to Olivet when it was passing through a crucial period and when REV. W. P. HAYES, D. D. wise and executive leadership was needed to bring about harmony and good will. Among the new reforms that Dr. Hayes has perfected that have given the church a distinctive tone in the city is the carrying out of a system that has to do with the proper handling of the finances. This system is arranged after the most approved financial system now in vogue in the most progressive churches of the country. The various departments of the church at the close of the year must submit their budgets to the prudential committee. this committee refers it to the joint board and the board passes it to the corporation for approval. This method is doubtless the most modern method of handling the finances of the church of any system in this city. All money raised in every one of the church departments are turned over to the trustees and can be drawn only on a written order from the trustees. This system enables the church to properly account for all money raised. Dr. Hayes' church has abolished the old custom of the table collection. Collection now is made in from eight to ten minutes and with less confusion. The winning power of Dr. Hayes as preacher is seen in the splendid manner in which in the short space of three years he has added over 700 members to the church and raised $32,156.80. He has conducted 152 funeral services, preached 466 sermons and delivered a number of lectures. Eight-five couples have been united in matrimony by Dr. Hayes, and he has paid 785 sick calls. Many improvements have taken place since his pastorate, and the church today is thoroughly organized and united. Dr. Hayes, since coming to this city, has won the confidence and esteem of the entire public, irrespective of denomination, and is one of the most forceful and highly respected clergymen in the pulpit of the race. The Rev. W. P. Hayes was born in Granville county, N. C., and is the son of the Rev. W. P. Hayes, one of the pioneer ministers of the M. E. church of the North Carolina conference. Dr. Hayes attended the public schools of Raleigh and Reidsville, N. C., and later entered Bennet college at Greensboro, N. C., from which he graduated in 1898. After teaching three years at the Boston institute he entered the Virginia Union university and graduated from the theological department in 1907. After graduation he became instructor of elocution at the university, serving in this capacity for one year. He has held the pastorate of some of the best churches in Virginia with eminent success. In November, 1910 he married Miss Carolyn Amee, one of the most accomplished young women of the race. She is especially accomplished as a pianist and is of great assistance to her husband in his church work. OFFICIAL PLANS FOR THE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONGRESS. Meeting of National Religious Body Will Be Largely Attended. Nashville, Tennessee. At a special meeting of the Sunday school congress official board and the National Baptist Publishing board recently held it was decided that the Nashville delegation to the ninth annual meeting of the Sunday school congress to be held in Beaumont, Tex., would leave Nashville on Monday night, June 8, or early Tuesday morning, June 9. It was decided to go by way of the New Orleans gateway. The secretary of the Sunday school congress stated that an effort would be made to have a special train this year as heretofore and that in view of the fact that selections of delegations were coming in so fast the prospects were that a special train would be necessary. He also stated that he did not know how many of the northern and eastern delegates would come through Nashville, but that he had received several letters from points north and east asking if it were possible to go by way of Nashville. He has replied to each, saying that this information would have to be given to them by the various railroad representatives. The committee of arrangements for the entertainment of the visitors are the members of the executive committee, which is composed of Drs. Gibson, Bendy and Williamson and Professor J. P. Eugene. The chairmen of the various committees are: Arrangements, Dr. M. E. Robinson; reception, Dr. C. H. McDade; entertainment. Dr. M. Hurd; decoration, Dr. W. H. Holland; music, Professor L. L. Prater and Joseph D. Turner; hones, J. R. Jacobs; assignment, Professor Thomas T. Pollar and J. P. Eugene; solicitation, John H. Rhone. With these active workers already in line the work of the congress is in safe hands. WELL MANAGED SCHOOL. Progress of the Utica Institute Under Professor W. H. Haltzolaw Utica, Miss. — The Utica institute, located four miles south of here, is recognized as one of the leading institutions in the south for the education and advancement of Afro-American boys and girls. Under the vice management of the president, Professor William H. Hein, the school is meeting the needs of its large student body in a most satisfactory way. Seeing the great need of industrial education in the south, Mr. Holtzclaw struggled stronely under difficulties to plant a school to give the young people, especially of Mississippi, a chance to acquire such an education as would fit them for making their way through life. During its eleven years of existence the school has done a wonderful and commendable work. Graduates of the school since its establishment are filling nearly every position in the walk of life with honor to themselves and credit to their alma mater. The enrollment this year was over 500, coming from Alabama, Louisiana, Arkansas, Tennessee, Cuba and Mississippi. The high class work done by the institution places it in the front rank. Perhaps nowhere in this country can be found an institution that is more alive to the needs and best interests of its students. The character of its work was clearly shown in the fact that at the state fair held in Jackson, Miss., in October, 1913, the school won first prizes for nearly every department exhibit, notwithstanding every school in the state was represented, and the Udica Normal and Industrial institute was the younger of them all. The faculty of the school consists of thirty-two well trained young men and women, some of whom are graduates of some of the leading institutions of learning in this country. Professor Holtzclaw was born of humble parentage on a farm in Randolph county, Ala. Starting with such education as was offered him in his home county he made his way to Tuskegee institute, where he worked during the day and went to school at night for four years, when he graduated from that institution with honors. The school held its commencement exercises recently. Ten young people received diplomas and certificates. This is the largest number of graduates ever sent out from the school at one time. Annual Meeting of Good Samaritans. The forty-third annual meeting of the New Jersey state grand lodge of the Independent Order of Good Samaritans will be held at Long Branch, beginning on Wednesday morning, June 1, at 10 o'clock. Large delegations from the various subordinate lodges will be in attendance. The address of welcome will be delivered by Dr. William B. Scott, deputy for the fifth district. Miss Estell Doucey and Mrs. Grace Hall, head workers in the juvenile department, will render their annual reports at the evening session on Wednesday, June 3. Good Work For Jenkins Orphanage. The closing exercises of the Jenkins Orphanage institute in Charleston, S. C., will be held on Monday evening, June 1, in the orphanage building on Franklin street. The institution has had a very successful year in all of its work, notwithstanding the increase in the number of pupils and the heavy financial responsibility under which the managers have had to labor in order to maintain its dignity and the good will of the public. LIBERIAN LEADER VISITS AMERICA School to Be Founded With Fund Left by Baltimore' Woman, but More Money Is Needed—Future President a Clergyman and Educator of Much Note in His Adopted Land. That matters of great importance in the educational advance of the republic of Liberia are in contemplation is indicated by the visit to this country of Dr. John H. Reed, principal of the projected Caroline Donovan Normal and Industrial institute, which will be located in Great Bassa county, Liberia. The school has been made possible through the turning over to Dr. Ernest Lyon, the Liberian consul to this country, of $5,000 of the accrued income left by the late Miss Caroline DR. JOHN HAMILTON REED. Donovan of Baltimore to the American Colonization society. It will be modeled along the lines of Tuskegee Institute. Dr. John Hamilton Reed is a native of the United States of America and received his full collegiate course at New Orleans university, New Orleans, being graduated from that institution June 2, 1801. Soon after graduation he went to Texas, where he taught for awhile in the normal and industrial institution under the supervision of the department of education of the state located at Prairie View. Tex. He was also for a number of years professor of mathematics at Wiley university, Marshall, Tex. He was for a number of years connected with the Texas annual conference, being honored as secretary of the conference for nearly ten years. Leaving this conference, he was transferred to the Little Rock conference of the Methodist Episcopal church where the city of Little Rock felt his leadership in the pastorate of Wesley chapel, the leading church in that conference, for four years. Here, under his leadership, a $30,000 brick church was built. It stands today as the best monument of his efforts in the ministry. In 1905 he was appointed by the board of foreign missions of the Methodist Episcopal church to the foreign field, Africa, and with his wife, Mrs. Marguerite Louise Reed, and two children, Walter and Florence, began a career of great influence in connection with the work of the College of West Africa at Monrovia, Liberia. In 1908 Dr. Reed was commissioned by the state department of the United States of America as vice consul general to Liberia and holds that commission still as a bonded officer, under bond suettees in the city of Baltimore. In the month of February, 1914, he was duly appointed and commissioned by his excellency, Daniel E. Howard, president of the Republic of Liberia, as principal of the Caroline Donovan Normal and Industrial institute, which was established by an act of the national legislature under the trust fund known as the Donovan fund. The site for the establishment of the educational plant has been duly selected in the county of Grand Bassa, republic of Liberia, upon a tract of land comprising 5,000 acres of land in one of the most productive and beautiful sections in the interior of the republic. Dr. Reed, as principal of the institute, has been duly commissioned and empowered by the executive government of the Liberian republic to visit the United States for the purpose of interesting other organized financial agencies in this great educational movement. His further mission is to procure all the necessary materials and equipment for the immediate establishment of the institute under the provisions of the act of incorporation through the Donovan fund made available for this purpose. The president of the board of trustees, with the executive committee, gave the principal full power of attorney in the administration of this fund during his trip to America, to confer with the depositories of the fund and carry into effect everything necessary for the permanent founding of this important institute in Liberia. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS ROYAL COUPLE ARE SLAIN IN CARRIAGE Archduke Francis Ferdinand and Spouse Assassinated While Riding to Fete. MURDERER IS POUNCED UPON Six Are Injured When Bomb is Hurtled at Carriage by Journeyman Printer Previous to Shooting to Death of Heil to Austre-Hungarian Threne and Wife. CALLED EMPEROR OF SORROWS. Franz Josef has been called the emperor of sorrows. "The curse of the Hapsburg" is said by the superstition to have followed to shooting the "outside." The "outside" was pronounced by the aged Countess Carolyn, whose son was put to death for participating in the Hungarian uprising. She called upon heaven and hell to blast the happiness of Franz Jeef and strike him through those he leaved. Thus he has been stricken: Hiew wife, "the good Elizabeth," was assassinated in Switzerland. His brother, Maximilian, was executed in Mexico. His only son, Rudolf, was a suicide. His sister-in-law, the Duchesse D'Alencen, was burned to death in a charity building. His favorite grandchild married against his wishes and her love ended in the shooting of her rival. And now— His nephew, the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, have been assassinated in the capital of Bohemia. Sarayevo, Bosnia—Archduke Francis Ferdinand, nephew of Emperor Franz Josef and heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, and his wife, the Duchess of Hohenberg, were assassinated at 11:15 o'clock in the morning while driving from the railroad station to the city hall, where they were to attend a celebration. The royal carriage had just started away from the railroad station when a journeyman printer named Cabrinov buried a bomb at the carriage, injuring six persons, all members of the royal party. A young Servian student standing alongside of Cabrinov raised a revolver almost at the same instant and fired several shots at the archduke and duchess, each of the bullets striking a vital spot. The archduke was shot in the head and the duchess in the abdomen. They were carried into the palace, where they died within a few moments. Assassins Are Captured. Those of the throng nearest to the two assassins stood paralyzed for a moment after the explosion and shots, then before the smoke had entirely cleared away flung themselves upon Cabrinovic and his accomplice, who were trying to make their escape under cover of the confusion. The two were thrown down and men and women were fighting to get at them when the police and military escort charged, dispersing the crowd. The two men, their clothes nearly torn off, their faces and bodies bruised and cut, were barely able to stand when they were dragged to their feet and started in the direction of the police station. All the way to the station indignant Bosnian peasants tried to reach them and repeatedly were hurled back by the police. Among those wounded by the bomb explosion were Count Boos Waldeck and Col. Merizki. The time and place for the dastardly deed were well chosen. The city was enfete in honor of the coming of the archduke and duchess. A huge throng had gathered near the railroad station, where a small military detachment was on hand to keep the way clear for the passage of the royal carriage. In the throng were hundreds of peasants in the bright native costumes of Bosnia. They had trumped miles across the hilly country to look upon the man who eventually was to rule over them. Flags were flying throughout the city and garlands of flowers hung from windows. All the notables of the city and state were waiting inside the station for the arrival of the royal couple. Archduke Extremely Popular. Archduke Francis Ferdinand was extremely popular, as was his beautiful wife, the former Countess Sophie Chotek. Francis Ferdinand Charles Louis Joseph Maris, nominal successor to the Austrian throne, was 50 years old. The duchess, before their marriage in 1900, after prolonged opposition on the part of the emperor, was Countess Sophie Chotek De Chotkow Et Kognin. She was five years the junior of her husband. To marry her Francis Ferdinand had to take an oath that she never would be proclaimed as empress and renounced the right of succession of any children which might be born to them. On their marriage the emperor conferred upon her the title of Duchess of Hohenberg. Saves 'Spooning' is a Crime. Chicago, Ill.—“'Spooning' is a crime against womanhood." John A. Alexander, a director, told 500 young women attending the older girls' conference of the International Sunday School convention. "Pass the word along to girls who love to 'spoon' that it is the most degrading thing they can do," he added. "Make the boys clean minded and wholesome by the way you dress." Miss Margaret Slattery of Bostock made a similar talk at the older boys' conference. 1 Capt. Harry Haff is the veteran yachtman who has succeeded Capt. Bill Hennis as skipper of the Vanitie, one of the trio of yachts that are striving for the honor of defending the America's cup against Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamreck IV. U. S. EXPRESS COMPANY TAKES DOWN SHINGLE CONCERN WHICH BEGAN SERVICE BEFORE CIVIL WAR GOES OUT OF BUSINESS. Contracts Entered Into With Railroads for Transportation of Packages Have Practically Been Turned Over to Other Carriers. New York City.—After an uninterrupted service which had its inception seven years before the beginning of the Civil war, the United States Express Co. at midnight June 30 took down its shingle as a common carrier. Contracts entered into by the United States Express with railroads for transportation of packages and other freight have practically all been turned over to the Wells Fargo Co. the American Express and the Adams Express companies. Wells, Fargo & Co. have taken over the contracts with the Baltimore & Ohio, the St. Louis & San Francisco and the Chicago & Eastern Illinois, and all the subsidiaries of those three roads. The American Express has taken over the contracts with the Jersey Central, Philadelphia & Reading and Rock Island, including the Adams with their subsidiaries. Contracts with the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western and the Pere Marquette, together with their subsidiaries, have been taken over by the Adams Express Co. About 90 per cent of the 15,000 employees of the company have secured positions with the other express companies and the remainder will continue with the United States company pending its liquidation. MELLEN FACES CHARGES FORMER HEAD OF NEW HAVEN ROAD AND OTHERS ARE INDICTED BY GRAND JURY. Boston, Mass.—Former President Mellen of the New Haven is charged with conspiracy, with being an accessory before the fact to larceny and with conspiracy to steal in a sensational series of indictments returned by the Middlesex county grand jury. Frederick S. Moseley, note broker of Boston, is indicted on charges of larceny, conspiracy to steal and conspiracy. Ralph D. Gillett of Westfield is indicted for conspiracy to steal and conspiracy, and the members of the investment committees of two Cambridge banks are indicted for conspiracy. The members of the Moseley firm are likewise indicted for conspiracy to steal. The indictments are the aftermath of the Mellen flotation of the Hampden railroad securities when he was president of the New Haven. Two Hurt in Gun Eight Pittsburgh, Pa—Harry Gordan, 42, poetmaster at Dunningtown, thirty miles east of here, and Cozine Daniels, 22, his assistant, were badly wounded in a gun fight with postoffice robbers. Gordon's left lung was penetrated by a bullet. Daniels was hit in the breast. The holdup men escaped with one bag containing $700. Repeals Oid War Bittl Washington, D. C.—With an unusual demonstration, the house unanimously passed a bill to repeal a section of the revised statutes which prohibits the payment of accounts, claims or other obligations against the United States in favor of anyone who encouraged or sustained or in any way favored the "rebellion." The measure would open up claims of various kinds, aggravating about $165,000 from West Point graduates who afterward were officers in the Confederacy.

Cleveland JUNIOR CITY SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1914. The Gazette congratulates its highly esteemed contemporary, the Detroit Leader, on its successful existence for five years and sincerely trusts that its sixth year, which it entouged upon, last week, will be its best. The Leader is one of the best papers, and Editor Kemp, a stalwart raceman. All his countrymen will sympathize with Col. Roosevelt in regard to his sore throat; but the most sympathetic man has been able to see with half of one eye that even before he went to Europe the titular head of the Bull Moose party was seriously considering the question of taking a holiday from the stump this Summer and the coming Fall. In a few weeks The Gazette will enter upon its thirty-second year of continuous publication—every week on time, too. Let every regular patron of the paper, and as many others as will, send us at least one subscriber on August 1, 1914, to help celebrate this paper's next birthday. This much you, dear reader, can do—if you try, and you will be rendering material assistance. Dead — dead — dead — dead as last year's catch of mackerel is the Bull Moose party except as a Democratic Aid Society, and even in that role it is getting to be a joke. Recently one of the few Third Party papers in the country of any consequence, the Phila delphia Times, gave up the ghost. Its owner was Frank A. Munsey, the chief literary light of the Roosevelt campaign of 1912. It is fair to Mr. Munsey to say that as far back as eighteen months ago he saw what was coming. There is no more fitting tribute that the Republicans of Cuyahoga County, O., could pay themselves than to elect Hon. Harry C. Smith, to the legislature, in order that he may have the satisfaction of casting a vote to send to the Senate of the United States the most unselfish white friend the Negro has in this country. With the Hon. Joseph Benson Forest, in the United States Senate and Hon. Harry C. Smith in the Ohio legislature, we might hope to see Republican principles again assume the ascendancy in this "land of the free and home of the brave"——Newport News (Va.) Star. The Gazette "takes little stock" in the report, being industriously circulated by some of its more credulous contemporaries, to the effect that President Wilson has made known that it is his intention to appoint an Afro-American as the Hon. Henry Lincoln Johnson's successor as Recorder of Deeds of the District of Columbia. He has asked the latter to resign, the same report announces. This "sounds" very familiar, from the fact that he has asked so very many—about all of the Afro-American and old soldier Republican office-holders of any consequence, to do so, and appointed about two Negro democrats, during his tenure of office. Senator John Sharp Williams (Dem.), of Mississippi, who was the Democratic leader in the House before Congressman Underwood, and who bertened his colleagues in the Senate, last week Wednesday, for quarrel over the selection of reserve cities and other matters, declared the party was beginning to do just what it could be counted upon doing every time. "The poor, dear, old, foolish Democratic party," said the Democratic senator, "is going through the same game that she can be generally trusted to go through soon after she gets into power. "That is the Democratic party, true enough," he continued. "That is its history. That is what led Speaker Tom Reed to say in 1894 and 1895: 'You can't long because you are not accustomed to governing anybody or anything; you cannot govern the country because you cannot govern yourselves. You are incompetent.' ROBERT HARRIS FREEDI Dodge City, Kan., June 29, '14. My Dear Friend:—I wish to inform you that I was acquitted by a jury at LaJunta, Col. Saturday at 6:10 p. m., and that I am a happy man. Do not think that I have forgotten you or the good people in Cleveland who assisted me in the time of the trial. Remember me to Mr. Geo, L. Lang and the other gentlemen of your city, who helped me. May God bless you and them—all. Please answer. Robert Harris. The above was received, Wednes day, from the man who with his father, is convicted of murder, many months ago, in Colorado, the former being sentenced to death, and the father to life imprisonment in that state's penitentiary. All, because they envisioned to protect the aged mother and wife themselves and homes, from the warmer temperatures of prejudiced white officers, who without warrant of law, broke into their home and viciously assaulted and beat up son, mother and father. Prejudice caused their conviction for the son's killing of two of the brutes. Many of our readers will remember the appeals for financial assistance The Gazette made for them, some months ago, at Robert's request. He and his father were in the Colorado penitentiary at Canon City, Colo., at the time. While we rejoice with him over his liberation, and know all of our readers will do so also, we do want to know, what of the father? CALIFORNIA NOW REPUBLICAN. The long-drawn-out registration of voters in California is still proceeding. Up to June 1st the following were the figures: Republican, 347,861; Progressive, 172,064; Democratic, 185,107; Socialist, 46,777; Prohibition, 26,506; declined to state, 64,875; miscellaneous, 1,875; total, 845,117. The registration will close July 6. In 1912 Roosevelt received 283,610 votes; Wilson 283,436; and Taft only 3,914. DITTO IOWA AND NEBRASKA. Iowa may also now be safely counted as Republican. The complete returns of the recent primary in that State for U. S. Senator show: Republic, 140,277; Democratic, 76,413; Progressive, 5,359. In 1912 Wilson received 185,325 votes; Roosevelt, 161,819; Taft, 119,805. What a glorious thing this get-to-together movement is! Nebraska is the latest to fall into line. The Republicans and Progressives will hold a joint State convention to nominate a single ticket, under one flag and on one platform. In 1912 Nebraska cast 109, 008 votes for Wilson; 72,689 for Roosevelt, and 54,216 for Taft. A CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Washington, D. C., June 29, 1914. Dear Mr. Smith—Recalling our pleasant association together as members of the General Assembly of the State of Ohio in 1900 and 1801, it occurs to me that I ought to have The Gazette on my table for information as to the general situation in the state. I am accordingly inclosing my check for $1.50 for one year's subscription to The Gazette. Wishing for your continued prosperity and success, I am Yours very respectfully, Frank B. Willis. MR. W. TILTON. Lima, O.-The above is an excellent portrait of Mr. Tilton, a well informed business man who is highly appreciated by the best thinking people of both races. Mr. Tilton is in this city, where he lectured recently, and has a call to Mt. Sterling, Ky, to fill a similar engagement at an early date. He has several engagements and is a frequent foe leaving for the "Blue Grass" state. Wherever Mr. Tilton is he says he feels his duty to do all in his power for The Gazette, "the old reliable," because it is a Negro enter- M. prise that has lived thirty-two years and has been published every week on time during that long period of time in the interest of the race and that alone. No other secular race-publication in existence can boast truthfully of such a grand record. He insists that the Negroos of Ohio need the best of the best to make a slaughter again because he did so much good work for them when he was there in 1894, 5, 6, 7, 1900 and 1901, three terms.

HE GAZETTE, CLEVELAN JOHNSON PLAYED WITH MORAN Then Whipped Him—"Wise Prophets" Sullivan and Corbett—Some of the French Nobility Witness the Fight—Easy and Big Money for Jack. Paris, France—Well, Jack Johnson may not be the fighting jewel of years ago, and it really appears as if he has lost some of the old physical ability, but his twenty-round war with Frank Moran, here, last Saturday, was a triumph for a great ring general. At thirty-six, he showed himself far superior to the cleverest of the white hopes, ten years younger. Jack is a wonderful athlete and a still more wonderful boxer. The public may not approve of him as a man, but one must see him the palm of credit for being the greatest heavy weight champion that ever held the honor. Old John L. Sullivan's and Jim Corbett's prophecies of defeat for Jack show them to be anything but the "wise ones" they continually pose as being, as far as pugilists and pugi- JACK JOHNSON. lism, are concerned. They, like thousands of others, permit their prejudice to run riot with what sense and judgment they may possess. Moran was pretty badly battered, while Johnson's only relic of the fight (beside the money) was a badly bruised hand which he attributed to the use, for the first time, of fournisse instead of five ounce gloves. For this fight, Jack received $30,000, and $5,000 additional for training expenses; also 60 per cent of the moving picture rights. Pretty soft, this. He has agreed to fight Sam Langford the middle of October. For this battle he will receive $30,000, win, lose or draw, and receive $10,000, in addition to the moving picture receipts. The articles for the fight with Langford were signed in London, England, July 1. Ringside Gossip. Johnson was master of the fight from the start and gave his opponent a terrible beating. Moran was the gamenist man Johnson ever met. It was Moran's gameness and wonderful stamina that enabled him to last the limit, before the terrible blows of the title holder. There were approximately 35,000 spectators in the Velodrome d'Hiver when the contestants stepped into the ring. They were wildly cheered. The betting was heavy up until the moment the fight started. Before going to the Velodrome Johnson appeared at the American bar near the hotel, and he biked him self without limit. William A. Brady, former manager of Jim Corbett and Jim Jeffries, covered $1,000 of the money. "I don't know how you figure it out, Brady," said Johnson. "But I guess I can use your money as well as any-body's thanks." The great amphitheater presented a wonderful sight, for although there were some empty seats, the tiers were crowded with representatives of every element. The singular spectacle was presented of several hundred women, in handsome gowns, applauding the two pigilists as they struggled up and down the ring, feinting and dodging and hammering each other. Among the women were those who bore great names in French society as Baron de Duchess, the younger Duchess d'Uzes, Countess Mathien de Noallies, the poet, Princess de Lucinge, the Duchess de Rohan and the Princess Morouzieff. Johnson has made plans for a tour of Europe in an automobile after the fight. The journey will include visits to London and to Moscow, and he says he will later return to the United States. The Kind of Help that Counts. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—Find enclosed $1.50. Please take the Gazette to Mr. Daniel Lewis, a friend. I persuaded him to take our paper.

MINISTERS' ALLIANCE PROTEST! Denounce the Alleged "Mt. Pleasant Home" As Segregation, As Undemocratic, Un-Christian, An Entering Wedge of Jim-Crowism, As Retrogression and a Wide Step Backward. Mr. President and Brethren of the Colored Ministers' Alliance: We, your committee, appointed Jan. 20th, 1914, to investigate the alleged organization of a Home EXCLUSIVE-LY to for the following children, beg leave to the following reports. 1. We find that the Home on E. 1266th St. is a private enterprise and has been mainly supported by one Chas. E. Stewart. Relative to the care of the children or condition of the same, we express no opinion, and make no commendation since the institution is private, or, at the most, quasi public. 2. We find that a public home for Colored children, exclusively, has been projected, and a tentative organization has been formally formed, with officers elected, a membership fee decided upon, and membership blanks printed. 3. We also find that this proposed institution has the endorsement of Dr. E. A. Smith and Mr. Thaxter Eaton of the Cleveland Humane Society, and T. C. Wellsted, assistant secretary of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce. Our committee, do hereby enter our most earnest and vigorous protest against the establishment of such an institution, for the following reasons, to wit:— 1st—There is absolutely no necessity for such an institution. The city, the county and the state have made ample and satisfactory provision for all of its dependent children, without regard to race, color, or previous conditions. 2nd—The multiplicity of such institutions simply increases the public burden and must, ultimately, lead to the increase of taxation, now already heavy. 3rd—The initiation of such an institution will inevitably lead to the displebly undemocratic and unchristian policy of segregation and therefore, become the entering factor that detracts to all self-respecting Negroes the world over. 4. Such a step is plainly and unmistakably retrogression, a wide step backward toward slavery and proscription, and a practical annihilation of the principles fought for, and obtained at the cost of much sacrifice, privation and bloodshed. 5. We are an English speaking people, thoroughly American, loyal to every interest of our government, and firmly believe in that perfectly democratic so long unchallenged by Dr. Lyman Abbott, and our own Dr. Washington Gladden—"The Fatherhood of God and the Brotherhood of Man." Respectfully submitted, ELAM A. WHITE, H. I. WILLEY, CHAS. BUNDY, G. V. CLARK, The above report was unanimously adopted by the Ministers' Alliance, Tuesday, Jan. 27, 1914. HOMES FOR BOYS AND GIRL8. As a result of Judge Addams' and Sheriff Smith's urging, the county commissioners are planning a large detention home for boys and girls, the boys' detention home on the west side and the one for the girls on this side of the city, being inadequate to meet the demand. An agreement with the Salvation Army Rescue Home and The House of Good Shepherd, in addition to the detention home at 2393 E. 43d St., are not sufficient to provide places for girls. Pending arrangements for a permanent and large detention home for both boys and girls, Judge Addams has asked the commissioners to rent the premises adjoining the present detention home for girls in E. 43d St., and a house on the West Side to supplement the present boys' detention home which occupies the two upper floors of the Detroit-West 29th St., police station. Supplementing the foregoing are, the home for boys at Hudson, and The Cleveland Girls' Home, opened at Warrenville, under the city department of public welfare, and immediately under the supervision of Miss Vera Schafer, 10214 Hampden Ave., N. E. In the face of the foregoing, will some one find the shadow of a good excuse for the existence of that "jim-crow" M. Pleasant children's home? OPPOSED TO "JIM-CROW" HOME. At a recent meeting of the City Federation of Women's clubs, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted and ordered printed in The Gazette: We, the City Federation of Women's clubs, do earnestly enter our protest against establishing the "Mt. Pleasant Home for colored children," where there no necessity for such a home since our children are being better cared for in local institutions for all. We shall fight such an effort and use every influence to wipe out the objective "Home" and any other, promoting discrimination and segregation. We, the women of the Federation, many of us belonging to the Auxiliary to the Juvenile Court and Humane society, organized to assist, in the work of placing and relieving dependent children, know the abundance of our people by our people to help the above named organizations, and therefore, feel that such a step as organizing such a "home" is entirely unnecessary, non-progressive and an insult to our race, and do hereby enter a vigorous protest, placing ourselves squarely on record as opposing such a harmful movement, and as determined to use every influence to wipe it out. We have been made, to the effect that the alleged "Children's Home" in Mt. Pleasant, has been promised $1,000 in event of its existing one year, only aggravates the situation, and, if true, but shows the determination of a few prejudiced persons in this community to establish and maintain, if possible, this segregation attempt and consequent color-line.

Just a card to let you know, I am on my way to London. England. So far I am feeling fine and if it continues I will have nothing to say to the fish. Kindest regards to all. Mr. Hart sends regards." The recital by Miss Leota Collins at St. John's church, last Friday evening, was not largely attended, although the excellent programme presented merited a packed house. Miss Collins was conscientious and pleasing in all of her numbers, and was ably assisted by Mr. Saml's Stewart, at the piano, and Louia Jones, violin. Mr. Ware gave recitations. The Metropolitan Trio, T. E. Davis, manager, an excellent musical organization, well-known in this city, played at the "Air Dome" in Elyria, Sunday, to large audiences and will undoubtedly get return engagements at an early date as a result. Mr. S. Sappon, manager of the theater, is up-to-date and is doing a fine business. Mr. Durham is the proprietor. The graduating exercises of the Bible Training school were held at St. John's A. M.

The Esteria club of young ladies, gave an excellent sketch entitled, "How a Woman Keeps a Secret". It was very successful and they deserve great credit. Each one seemed adapted to the character she represented. Mrs. H. K. Price, director, instrumental and vocal solos by Mrs. Edwina Seelig and Mrs. M. Sellers; a piano duet by two little birds, the Misses Johnson, was very excellently rendered. Their technique and expression won them a host of admirers. Mrs. A. B.

Stanley, sentinel. Joseph B. Foraker, former Ohio governor and ex-U. S. senator, who is seeking the Republican nomination for a return to the senate, had little to say concerning political subjects last week before his informal talk to Phi Kappa Psi fraternity man in convention in Hotel Statler. In briefly commenting on his candidacy, Mr. Foraker said he is letting his primary campaign take care of itself for the most part and is only accepting a few of many invitations to address gatherings. Mr. Foraker returned to Cincinnati. He said he is too busy looking after his p. l.v. affairs to pay much attention to his senatorial candidacy. His thousands of friends and admirers throughout the state, are doing that for him, and success seems assured. Dr. Christian Latrobe Mottley's unexpected death, early last month, at his native home in the Barbados, British West Indies, was the direct result of a serious illness, noted in The Gazette, the last of May. At that time the Doctor, our warm personal friend MORE WORK TO BE DONE. Washington, D. C., June 20, 1914. Editor Gazette, My dear Harry:—I see by the public press that you are to again run for the Legislature in Ohio. From this out, it shall be my prayer that you win, for whatever of good you do, for Ohio as one of its Legislators, you have been of incalculable good to the Colored race of this country in the great fight you made for Ohio's Anti- M. B. H. Lynching law that you finally got through. All other legislation of its kind, I believe, has been modeled on that, and your law has stood the test. I believe there is back in your consciousness some other good work to be done. I congratulate you upon your spirit and your willingness to run again. That you may be elected is the wish of You and me. GEO. WM. COOK, Secretary, Howard University. Thank You! Wilmington O., June 27, 1914.

They are important factors in maintaining the Hampton institute as an industrial village. In this much bemonumented land it is rather curious that no monument has yet been set up anywhere to commemorate the loyalty of the slaves that remained on the plantations during the Civil war. Of course commemoration of that sort belong to the old slave states, but citizens of the North can regard the matter with interest. If not with the same vital and personal interest that citizens of the South, may feel. Both during the war and in the half century since its termination Confederates have been warm in their expression of esteem for the faithful slaves that stayed at home while their masters went to the army, guarding faithfully the women and children whom the white men of the South had to leave at home when the call to arms came. Now the omission will probably be rectified since at the recent reunion of Confederate veterans at Jacksonville a motion was adopted recommending that such a monument be erected in the capital city of each of the former slave states. A little reflection serves to show one how richly the commemoration is deserved. Singularly beautiful and touching was the loyalty of those black people to the families of their masters. The fact that the white men dared leave their wives and children to the protection of the black men who were their slaves is in itself a tribute of which the American negro can always be proud and now monuments in the capital cities of the South will permanently recall to mind a reliance that was not misplaced. A hamatite ore discovered on the Kleena river has been acquired by a Vancouver company. It is stated that a large body of ore has been removed by a glacier and deposited over an area one mile square. The travelers who boast about the number of times they have crossed the Atlantic should hearken to the story of Donald McCave, a greaser on the steamship Oceanic. He has made 350 voyages to America and back. It is estimated that he has traveled 2,400,000 miles on the Atlantic ocean. He made 250 trips on one vessel, the Teutonic. Because the vitilated air is bad for the workingman, the German government has forbidden the drying of plaster in new buildings by the use of open stoves. The stoves must now be connected by pipe with the outside. The average nominal rate of wages to adults is $15 a week in West Australia, as compared with $13.50 a week in Tasmania, the two states of Australia where the highest and the lowest wages, respectively, are paid. A process of hardening steel with compressed air is said to be in successful use by a German firm in cases where only certain parts of the metal require hardening. Official figures recently completed show that the metallic zinc production of the United States last year exceeded all former records. English paint manufacturers have found oil made from seeds of Brazilian rubber trees as an acceptable substitute for linseed oil. The verdict of a jury in a criminal case in Arkansas has been set aside because the jury consumed nine quarts of whisky in reaching a conclusion. Geneva, Switzerland has taken up the work of construction of houses for employees of the municipal gas works. A man always says things behind his wife's back when he is hooking up her dress. The average length of life in Sweden is slightly more than fifty years, which is very high. But many a smart housewife has been able to make a dumb waiter answer. In justice to Mr. Owald Garrison Villard, who recently delivered an ad dress on the negro problem in our city I desire to reply to a letter of A. S Edmonds in the "Public Mind" column of the Times of the twenty-second writes H. O. Cook in a communication to the Kansas City Star. Mr. Edmonds, in comparing the views of Mr. Villard and Mr. Booker T. Washington in his Atlanta address, sees a wide difference in the opinions of these two men, and concludes that "certainly Mr. Washington knows, If anyone does, the best means of solving this problem." If Mr. Edmonds would talk with Mr. Washington today he would find that he (Mr. Washington) has made a long jump since that Atlanta address. Moreover, Mr. Edmonds, as a great many others, has the impression that the men who believe and are working with Mr. Villard are opponents of Mr. Washington's policy. These men, on the contrary, thoroughly believe in the policy of industrial education and the accumulation of property for the negro, but do not believe that these alone will secure all those rights and privileges that are justly due him as an American citizen. Mr. Villard, with thousands of others in this country, feels that the negro needs not only this education and material wealth, of which he is securing more and more every year, but that he deserves justice in our courts, equal opportunities in civic and political life and the privileges of enjoying the best in a country which he has helped to build and protect. Cola nuts, which have been exported from the Gold Coast of Africa to the value of about $450,000 annually for several years, advanced in 1912 to $650,000 worth. Exports from southern Nigeria increased to nearly the same extent. Jamalca produces a great variety of hardwood trees. Lists of its timbers, classified according to the suitability of the timbers (113 in all), have been printed in a bulletin issued by the department of agriculture. Travelers may now go from Tokyo to Peking in 85 hours. This route is through Seoul and Mukden. Trains run twice a week. The popular route heretofore has been by sea from Kobe and requires 144 hours. Despite the fact that the prices of its vehicles have been doubled in two years, the Zeppelin company engaged in the manufacture of dirigibles, lost $375,000 during the fiscal year just closed. Exports to Germany exceeded $187,000,000 in the eight months ended with August, and imports from that nation were above $118,000,000, an aggregate trade of more than $305,000,000. The best many a girl gets out of it who marries for a home is a chance to cook for boarders. The water of the Swiss city of Basle is so injurious to teeth that a municipal dental clinic has been established. One of the French manufacturers has produced a hydrocarbon plane so powerful that it is in reality little less than a flying tugboat. The governor of Iowa has set aside a fire prevention day, urging that the citizens discuss conditions and create a sentiment against forest fires and other conflagrations. An Australian has obtained a United States patent for a process of transplanting living hair on bald heads.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 4, 1914 BASSTALL It is said that Manager Clark Griffith will abolish team practise in Washington to strengthen the Senators. Griff says that every time his crew misses morning's practise they play better ball. Frank Chance now has a grand string of regular pitchers in Caldwell, Fisher, Cole, Keating and McHale. He intends to work the five men in their turn, following his old system with the Cubs. --- Kid Elberfeld, who occasionally breaks into a game for the Brooklyn's, is as full of pepper as he ever was. The Tobacco kid displays lots of action on the coaching lines for the Dodgers. Right Fielder Kommers of the St. Louis Feds kicked Umpire Mammasau in the side the other day during an argument, which proves that baseball is growing more refined every day. When the Senators lose nowadays it is not bad ball playing or pitching, but punk umplimg, that loses the game for them, according to the Washington scribes. When Amos Rusie was in his prime he drew a salary of $3,200 a year, but if he had had any desire to jump in those days he would have had to jump to a lumber-yard. Rousch, the ambidextrous youth who played field for the White Sox last year, is holding down first base for Indianapolis. Rousch throws with either hand. --- Terry Turner is playing a whale of a game at third for the Naps. The veteran does not seem to lose any of his effectiveness, although he is near the age limit. Gavvy Cravath has started trouncing the ball again. When he hits hitting the ball and Magee gets pacing him, the Phillies are a dangerous bunch. There are nearly fifteen hundred institutions in the United States for the care of children. Yet Connie Mack persists in maintaining a kindergarten. Charlie O'Leary, the former big leaguer, who was with the Cardinals last summer, is playing like a youngster out in San Francisco this summer. --- Frank Bancroft, business manager of the Cincinnati Reds, has just celebrated his sixty-eighth birthday anniversary. --- "My legs are too bad to let me jump," remarked Terry Turner when asked if there was any truth in the report that he was going to the Feds. * * * Gambling among baseball fans has come to the notice of District Attorney Whitman of New York, and he is going to take steps to put a stop to it. --- George Walsh, the former Georgetown university player signed by Brooklyn, is a brother-in-law of Willie Hoppe, the billiard player. --- Bobby Wallace, the veteran short stop of the Brown, has spent 18 years in fast company. Still he isn't ready for the Minneapolis team. The Cincinnati club has made a deal by which it will get the pick of the Dayton-Central league team at the close of the season. Joe Kelly, who is attracting attention by his work in the outfield for the Pirates, was a member of the White Sox two years ago. The New York Americans have been strengthened by the addition of Catcher Leslie G. Nunemaker from the Boston Red Sox. Bob Schang, a brother of the Athletics' catcher, is doing grand work for the St. Joe team of the Western league. A report has it that President Gilmore is going to take up airplaning—probably going after some new stars. The Killifier case between the Chicago Feds and the Philadelphia Nationals will be decided September 10. Hai Chase, first baseman of the White Sox, does not cut much of a figure in baseball reports these days. Honus Wagner is himself again as far as fielding is concerned, but he is not hitting the ball as he wants to. Clyde Milan, the speedy outfielder of the Washington team, is playing fast ball at the present time. Charley Herzog is not claiming a pount for the Cincinnati bugs, but he has his boys hustling. Bob Long, former Pacific coast pitcher, struck out 27 men in a Cincinnati semipro game. Sam Crawford of the Tigers appears to have been benefited by his tour around the world. Jack Coombs, former star twirter for Coinnie Mack, has been on a scouting tour for his employer. New York fans are beginning to think more of Al Demaree as a batter than as a pitcher. It is said the Buffalo Internationals are outdrawing the Buffalo Feds at home. INFIELDER ORR GOES BACK [Baseball Player] Connie Mack has released Infielder Billy Orr back to the Sacramento club of the Coast league, from which he came more than a year ago. King Brady Kopt has done so well that he gets the berth of utility infielder over the coast product. Tendency to injury was one of Orr's drawbacks. Harry McCormick, formerly of the Giants, and now manager of the Chattanooga (Tenn.) team, has been banging the ball at a .354 gait in the Southern league. Hughey Jennings finally whipped the Detroit Tigers into a team that is sure to take a lot of beating before the American league pennant race is over. --- The poor showing of the Red Sox has bothered Manager Carrigan, for he can find no excuse to offer. The men are all in good shape, but cannot hit. Frank Chance's men have come to life in the base-sealing line. The Yankees are showing surprising speed on the lines. ... Bisland doesn't look very strong at short for the Naps, which makes the absence of Ray Chapman felt the more keenly. Lalge McLoughlin, the Colgate university captain is expected to join the Senators at the end of the collegiate term. Jimmy Vlox, the Pirate infielder, has more errors chalked up against him than the whole Pirate team combined. Bill Carrigan declares that "Smoky Joe" Wood will help the Red Sox climb to the top of the American league list. It is reported that if Walter Johnson jumps to the Federals he will be paid a $100,000 salary for three seasons. Silk O'Loughlin has invented a mask to protect his ears while he is unimping behind the bat. Seaton is pitching about half the time for the Brooklyn Federal league. * * * * Washington club officials are planning to enlarge the Senators' ball park * * * * Ray Fisher is doing some high class box work for the Yankees. SPORTING WORLD The University of Michigan may soon be participating in intercollegiate rowing races. During the last few years the Huron river has gone through a period of development which has resulted in a three-mile straightaway course which is excellent, and plans now made call for the future development of the river so that a ten-mile straightaway course will be provided --- A decision of importance to American athletics was reached at Lyons, France, by the International Athletic federation committee on rules, regulations and records. By five votes to one the committeemen rejected the American contention that there should be no digout at the takeoff in the broad jump. . . . Walter Camp of Yale university suggested at a recent meeting of the eastern intercollegiate football rules committee that an extra official be engaged to sit on the side lines in case one of the active men became incapacitated during the contest. The United States and Canadian athletic governing bodies have practically formed an alliance and matters in athletics which have caused some conflict between the two associations will in future be avoided. There have been twelve contests for the America's cup emblematic of the international yacht-racing championship, which Sir Thomas Lapton will, for the fourth time, try to lift this fall. --- Coach Walter O'Connell of Cornell university is the best of the college mat game instructors, judged by the success of his squads at the Ithaca institution. A new motorcycle club has just been organized at Omaha, Neb. Already plans are being laid for a number of club runs and other social events. Russia distributed almost $3,000,000 in stakes and purses last year. Moscow paid out about $1,300,000 and St Petersburg almost $1,000,000. This will be the twelfth campaign for Afrite C. 2:11%, and the ninth for Ella Ambulator. 2:04½. Both of them are training well. BLUE NOW MOST POPULAR COLOR Leading Paris Dressmakers Are Employing All Shades in Their Creations. COLORED HAIR STRIKING FAD Ridicule Seemingly Has Had Little Effect on This Remarkable Style —Rucked Sleeves a Charming Idea—Effective Colluffe Easy to Copy. PARIS.—Now that the Concours Hippique is preparing to open its doors, the spring season may be said to have commenced officially. Already people are coming back from the Riviera, already the fashionable theaters are thronged every night. But it is at the opera—especially on Monday nights—that one finds the ultra-smart Parisiennes. The boxes are filled with well-known society women and the gowns seen in the foyer represent the latest creations of the Rue de la Paix dressmakers. I notice that a great number of blue toilettes are worn at the opera, blue in every possible shade, from palest pastel to the splendid color known as Egyptian blue. All the rich, rather dark shades of blue are fashionable this season, and I notice that both Worth and Paquin are using materials in the peacock tint. A great deal of glittering embroidery, mingled with deep fringes, appears on the new models and in many cases these blue gowns are accompanied by dark blue transformations, or wigs. It is astonishing to find that this fashion of blue, green and orange hair has really "caught on." It seems so very eccentric that one would have supposed that it would have been left to "variety" actresses or to those much photographed beauties whose names are familiar to the throng on boulevards. But no. It is really true that, in certain circumstances, the most notable of our Parisian society leaders adopt transformations of blue and green tints. Beauty in Colored Wigs. At a recent ball given by the Duchess d'Uzes all the women present wore colored wigs, and the effect was excellent. Mile. d'Alcedo, who is famous as a beauty in Blirrtz circles, looked quite lovely in a transformation of dark electric-blue hair. It was dressed high at the back, and on the forehead there was a soft curl right in the center. Her gown was.composed of creamy lace and it was finished off with a wide sash of electric-blue velvet ribbon. At the same ball the Marquise della Torre wore an emerald green transformation and Mile. de Yurbe, the beautiful mother, wore hair in a peculiar shade of tangerine orange, a large rose of the same color being thrust into her waist belt. At the opera a lovely Russian woman wore a dark blue transformation with an embroidered gown in the same shade. This gown was made like a sheath, and it was covered with palllettes and beads in various tones of dark blue. There was a scarf drapery of fine black lace thrown over the gown and the white shoulders and arms gleamed like marble under the fine meshes of the Chantilly. The blue hair was parted at the left side and drawn back from the forehead. At the back it was held close to the head by a flat comb set with sapphires. Red Chiffon and Gold. Another beautiful woman appears in the foyer in a wonderful robe composed of cardinal red chiffon and gold embroidery. The corsage was very decollete and there were no sleeves, the sides of the bodice being held up by strings of diamonds. With this gown a wig in a rich shade of leaf green was worn and a large black paradise mount drooped over the hair, and neck, at one side. I saw this week an ideal evening gown which was created by Laferriere. It was worn at the opera and it attracted a great deal of attention by reason of its elegant simplicity. The material was shell-pink chiffon and dull silver lace. The skirt was slightly trained and mounted over an underdress of shell-pink Indian silk. The silver tunic was caught in at the sides and at the back of the beautifully draped corsage there was an immense Japanese bow. A notable point connected with this gown was the long, rucked sleeve. These sleeves were, of course, transparent and they were extremely becoming to the arms. In fact, the whole corsage was so dainty and fairy-like that it seemed like a cloud of pale pink vapor. These long rucked sleeves for evening gowns are a new idea and a charming one. Only the most transparent and fragile materials are used for them, and they have a mysterious charm of their own, because they seem to vell the skin without really covering it. The outline shown in this sketch is new. It is worthy of attention because it represents the "outline" of tomorrow. Wals: Line Has Disappeared. All the leading Parisian dressmakers are adopting this vague, picture-esque style. It becomes more and Learn to Forget. Caesar was so ready to forgive that even Cicero, who was by no means a constant friend to him, relates, as a singular proof of his noble heart, that he never used to forget anything except the wrong done to him. Indeed, pardon is a most beautiful revenge; but to forget is still more beautiful—Petr Truth vs. Falsehood Truth is irresistible. Falshood may for a time stay its progress, but it more difficult to see where the waist line really lies, for shoulders, waist and hips all melt into each other. Needless to say, only the most supply materials can be used for gowns of this order, crepe de chine, oriental satin, embroidered chiffon, silk muslin, etc. At the opera I saw a pretty woman wearing a narrow band of black velvet around her throat; the hair was cleverly powdered. It was not all pure white, but at the sides a quantity of silver-white powder was applied. At the back the hair was rather dark, and it was dressed flat against the head and held in place by a diamond comb. A curious diamond clasp caught down the high mount of white horon quills. This effective headdress was worn with a maermaid-gown in glittering jet. This gown was finished with a long pointed train, and the upper part of the corsage was composed of flesh-pink tulle. In this case also a graceful scarf-drapery of cobweb black lace was worn. These long lace scarf-draperies are becoming very fashionable. They are thrown on over any evening gown and since they are arranged in a sort of capuchin hood at the back, finished with a heavy tassel, they fall in long straight lines, which are very flattering to a full figure. In front these scarf-draperies are allowed to fall straight to the hem of the skirt, or they are simply knotted below the waist. Effective Hairdressing. The head sketched shows a new style of hairdressing which leaves a little straight fringe on the forehead. Mile Forrane, a well-known Parisian beauty, introduced this style of hairdressing and it has quickly become popular. This fringe, which is very light, makes a change from the now almost universal bare forehead. The hair shown in this sketch is dressed high on the head at the back and it is softly drawn back from the sides, while a few stray curls are made to cover the ears. All the new evening corsages give the impression of being extremely collotele. And in reality these dainty garments are so small that it seems hardly worth while to speak of them. But then it must be remembered that A NEW COIFFURE PAUSED AT ONE SIDE TO SHOW A FRINGE WORK AT THE OPERA it is now very much the fashion to wear tulle scarfs in the evening, drawn lightly over the shoulders and arms, or the fine black lace scarf-draperies which I have just described. Flesh-Pink Evening Corsages In this way the shoulders and arms are lightly covered and the ensemble is in almost all cases admirable. The Parisian dressmakers continue to use a great deal of flash-pink tulle for their evening corsages, for the upper part of these, that is to say. One rarely finds dark colored chiffon or satin introduced in the upper part of an evening corsage. Very beautiful gold or silver embroidery is often used, or fragile tulle covered with a tracery of diamond sparks. Paste shoulder straps are almost always introduced and when no sleeves are worn the arms are covered with long mousquetare gloves. High medics frills or collars appear on many of the new evening dresses and these collars either frame the face or the shoulders, that is to say they are attached to a semihigh transparent bodice or to one which merely outlines the shoulders.-Idalia de Villiers in the Boston Globe. Kilted Skirts. The kilted skirt is also in evidence once more, and doubtless has come to stay. At present the kilts are usually stitched to within a few inches of the hem, as in the charming frocks worn at L'Athenee, one of cerise crepe de chine which has a tiny basque of finer kilting, and is worn with a perfectly simple blouse, finished with a soft neck drill of tulle, and a soft sash falling in long ends in front; another with the plisse skirt of white skirt bordered with yellow, the color of the quaint Saxon tunic of embroidered linen. Minaret Parasol With its Abrupt Top. It is something new to see a parasol that does not taper conventionally to its ferrule end. This oddly sliced off parasol is called the minaret because it looks like a minaret tunic. The model pictured is of white silk ruffled in pale green and it accompanies a frock of white indestructible volle piped with green pussy willow taffetas and having a sash of the same silk. cannot prevent its eventual triumph. An economic fact, founded on nature, will win its way despite the combined forces of those who benefit by inequitable customs and wicked laws. There can be but one conclusion to the battle of truth vs. falsehood. Inconsistent Man. A man doesn't care what his wife thinks of him when he refuses her money. But he will hand a strange waiter a dollar tip rather than have the strange waiter think he is cheap ON THE FUNNY SIDE EFFECTIVE FORCE AT WORK Tiny Bit of Humanity Graphically Describes to Bullying, Attorney How He Captured Burglar. Little Smithson was a meek, nervous-looking five feet of human. His manner suggested the probability of his heart breaking were he at any time compelled to kill a fly, even though it were in self-defense. When, therefore, a burglar paid him a visit one night, he was a bit scared. The nocturnal visitor having been captured, Smithson had to give evidence at the trial. The prisoner's counsel, a big bullying man, evidently thought he had got an easy job on when little Smithson entered the witness box. Having described the events prior to the burglar's capture, Smithson said: "Of course, I got him all right, but I had to use considerable force before he gave in." "Oh, indeed!" replied the lawyer, with a skeptical smile, as he looked the little man up and down. "And what force was it you used?" evidently scouting the idea that it was of the physical variety. Oh, replied Smithson, with a blunt smile that was the police force." Now, Kork, cournal. Conquered. Wife (with rolling pin)—Guess this will teach you not to say "my furniture" and "my house." I had the money when you married me, and you must say "our house," "our furniture" Husband (next morning from under the bed, where he had spent the night)—My dear, can I put on our trousers? Durn Shamel Twenty-four Hour Man (with the circus passes)—Where are the bills you should have in your windows? Hickville Storekeeper (irritably)—Aw, why in tarnation didn't yer other advance agent leave menagerie pictures instead uv lady trapeze artists? The Purity lefegue made mc take 'em all down!—Puck. Improvement. "Don't you think you could do something with that orchestra to improve my song?" asked the lady soloist at the theater. "What's the matter with it?" asked the orchestra leader. "Why, they could hardly hear my song for that drum." "Well, we can put in a couple more drums!" Wanted Definite Informatic Waited behind information. "Here's some information. Wille. This paper states that potatoes in Greenland do not grow larger than an ordinary marble," said his father. "I don't call that information, papa, replied the boy; 'what size marble does it mean—a clay 'mig' or a china alley'." A 8AFEGUARD. She—Why is it, Mr. Gotrox, that you have always remained a bachelor? He-I always go into retirement every leap year. The Sweet Thing! Mollie—I see new goggles for motorists are fitted at the sides with mirrors so a weaver can see what is approaching from the rear without turning his head. Chollie—But, dear, they would never prevent my "head being turned" if you were beside me. Absent Minded Miss Elder--Poor Mr. Dubb is so absent-minded. He bought a box of candy on his way up to call last evening, and he— Her Friend--He left it in the street car. I suppose? Confident Pride "Any real information on the perplexing problems of the day?" asked the man in the spring wagon. "Not yet," replied Farmer Corntosel; "but my boy Josh is at work on a commencement oration that'll tell 'em a few things." Footgear. "I don't approve of a man who sits around in carpet slippers," exclaimed the energetic citizen. "Nobody does," replied Miss Cayenne. "All the men have to wear dancing pumps."
