Preparations for forcible feeding were abandoned, when it was discoverd that her hunger strike was a fake, and that she was receiving food in secret. PRESIDENT TALKS TO THE WHOLESALERS SAYS HE IS SEEKING TO END ERA OF 'SUSPICION AND RECRIMINATION.' Wilson Also Talks of Business Conditions and Bills Now Before the Senate With Hugh Chalmers, Manufacturer—Commission Bill to Be Changed. Washington, D. C.—Defending the administration's anti-trust program, President Wilson Wednesday told a large delegation of business men, representing large wholesale organizations, that he was seeking to end an era of "suspicion and recrimination by putting into law what the moral judgment of the community has said ought to be there." The wholesalers laid before the president a prepared argument against several features of the Clayton antitrust bill and the trade commission bill, but said they approved of the general purposes of the proposed legislation. Chalmers Has Interview. The president also talked of business conditions and the anti-trust bills with Hugh Chalmers, a Detroit manufacturer, who agreed with the president's views and said that prosperity would come as soon as the present uncertainty was relieved. In speaking to the wholesalers the president said: "We have had 10 or 15 years of ceaseless agitation about business. During that length of time we have read stories in the newspapers and in the magazines of the extravagantly wrong things that were going on, and an atmosphere created of almost universal suspicion has been created, so that if a man became a business man in a big way he had the uncomfortable feeling that his fellow men probably looked upon him as not coming by his money in the right way. "I think I am right in saying that what the present administration has tried to do has been to bring all those questions to a clearing house and settle up the balance of judgment. "Wasn't it High Time?" "It may have seemed sudden to do so many things in one congress, but wasn't it high time?". Wasn't it high time to just have a clearance and settle these things? I am not maintaining that they are settled in the wisest way in which they could be settled, but certainly the men engaged have tried to settle them in the interest of the country, and I think in the main they have succeeded. "We had money conditions, banking conditions, economic conditions, of which the country said 'they are wrong'. Now we have undertaken to give a remedy, and until that was done business could not settle down to anything, because the agitation was sure to come again. "I just want to leave that thought with you, that we are not running 'amuck,' we are trying to close this era of suspicion and of recrimination by putting in the law what the moral judgment of the community has said ought to be there. "And I honestly believe that when it is done—and I hope it will not be more than six weeks now when it is done—we can all take off our coats and get to work and look each other in the face and say. 'This is a nation of honest men and we are going to do business as such.' Don't you think that is a reasonable view to take of the present situation?" Bandita Wold Up Stage Coaches. Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone Park, Wyo.—All the state coaches of the Yellowstone Park Transportation Co., the Yellowstone & Western Stage Co., the Wylie Permanent Camping Co. and the Shaw Powell Camping Co. that left Old Faithful inn at 8 o'clock in the morning on their way to the Lake hotel, were held up by two masked and armed robbers near Shoshone point, between Old Faithful inn and the Thumb Lunch station. The bandits got away with about $3,000 in money. THE GAZETTE AUSTRO-HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT ACTS WITH SWIFTNESS IN DECLARING WAR Sends Manifesto to Servia and Bloody Encounters Are Reported. Mobilization of Soldiers and Navies Continues Despite Pleas of Neutrality. BELGRADE IS IN FLAMES. Vienna, Austria.—Reports reached Vienna that Belgrade is in flames, following the bombardment of the city by two Danube monitors and small warships of the Austrian navy. The shells destroyed the exposed portions of the city and also battered down the fortifications. The king's palace was badly damaged. Sharp fighting is also reported from Vichitza, some five miles below Belgrade, but the Servian resistance was desultory. REPORT RELATIONS SEVERED. London, England.—According to the Times direct diplomatic intercourse between Austria and Russia has been suspended. The direct negotiations between Russia and Austria, which gave other governments hope of a compromise, have failed and are ended. Russia's resolution to stand by Servia appears to be fixed and the Russian censor has approved dispatches declaring that Russian sentiment is all for war. London, England.—The Austro-Hungarian government declared war against Servia Tuesday by a manifesto which is one of the briefest of history's momentous documents. Germany paved the way for this declaration by announcing her rejection of the British proposal to bring four powers together in conference for mediation. Germany explained to the public that her ally could not be expected to submit her acts to a European council as though she were one of the Balkan states. This announcement preceded the declaration of war by only two hours and gave an exhibition of the perfectly harmonious working of the partnership between the two nations which stood firmly together through the Bosnian crisis of 1909. The center of interest has shifted sharply to St. Petersburg, which holds the decision whether a European war, which probably would shift the balance of power, if not rearrange the entire map of Europe, is to break out. May Prevent General Wary Negotiations are afoot there between the Russian minister, Sergius Sazanoff, and the German ambassador, which are designed to "localize" the conflict. The nature and progress of these conversations are wrapped in mystery, but they are the last plank the neutral powers are clinging to in face of a storm which may wash all under. There is no doubt in British minds that Austria had fully resolved to utilize the provocation afforded by the Sarajevo murders to wipe the slate clean of all accounts against Servia, and served an ultimatum on her which was designed to have no result save war. There is absolutely no enthusiasm in England for war—no desire for this particular war which confronts Great Britain, yet there is a general belief that her obligations to her partners in the triple entente, as well as her interests as a great European power, will force her to support Russia and France in any steps they may take. Two Servian Steamers Seized. Two Servian steamers, the Deligrad and the Moraya, were seized, with their cargoes of contraband of war, at Orsova, the last Hungarian port on the Danube before it flows into Romanian-Servian territory. There was no resistance. The Servian colors were hauled down and those of the dual monarchy run up. The passengers were detained. Austrian gunboats patrolled the big river, and their control of this possible highway for Servian supplies is absolute. Meanwhile the troops of the dual monarchy were massing threateningly along the boundary and minor engagements were reported unofficially from half a dozen points. Servians Cross River Drina. Servian volunteers are reported to have crossed the river Drina, which separates King Peter's territories from the Austrian province of Bosnia, and to have been driven back by Austrian frontier guards. Vienna papers also printed rumors that Servian Four Die in Auto Accident. Chicago, Ill.-One woman and three men were instantly killed when the automobile in which they were riding was struck by a Chicago & Northwestern passenger train north of Lake Forest. The dead are: Mr. and Mrs. James W. Benham. Edward Wunderless. W. P. Barring. The accident occurred while a party of seven were on their way to an amusement park. The car was struck on a grade crossing on what is called the county line road. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. TEXT OF DECLARATION OF WAR. Vienna, Austria.—The declaration of war was gazetted here late Tuesday afternoon. The text is as follows: "The royal government of Servia not having replied in a satisfactory manner to the note remitted to it by the Austro-Hungarian minister in Belgrade on July 23, 1914, the imperial and royal government finds itself compelled to proceed itself to safeguard its rights and interests and to have recourse for this purpose to force of arms. "Austria-Hungary considers itself, therefore, from this moment in a state of war with Servia. "COUNT BERCHTOLD, "Minister Foreign Affairs of Austria-Hungary." EMPEROR'S MANIFESTO. Vienna, Austria.—A manifesto just issued by the emperor, after stating that it had been his fervent wish to dedicate his declining years to preserving the empire from the burdens and sacrifices of war, says: "Providence has decreed otherwise. The intrigues of a malevolent opponent compel me in defense of the honor of my monarchy and for the protection of its dignity and the security of its passions, to grasp the sword after long years of peace." troops had fired on some of their own river transports and that a number of soldiers had been killed and wounded. Servian and Montenegrin troops were in touch at Priboj and Austri-troops were hurried thither to com-pected invasion. Montenegrin, mea while, was massing the bulk of h forces on the heights above Cattar Austria's naval station on the Adriatic, and Austrian transports we carrying great numbers of soldie there. The Austrian general staff undertook the invasion. Austri-mento from that point. While Austria must hered en-mous armies, Servia, too, made read for defense. The Austro-Hungarian foreign office protested that the dual monarchy noises no increase of territory, but t, e Serbs prepared to resist invasion. War Pleases People. Vienna, Austria.—It is with a feeling of interite relief that the people in the dual monarchy look forward to a war with Servia, which for several days has seemed inevitable and which was Tuesday formally declared. Whether the war will be confined to the two countries cannot be said, but the feeling on this point in high official circles is optimistic. Even certain knowledge that Russia would intervene, however, would not cause Austria to hesitate a moment or alter her course in the slightest. The ministry of foreign affairs has addressed a verbal note to the foreign representatives informing them of the declaration of war and declaring that Austria will, on the assumption of similar observances on the part of Servia, adhere to the provisions of The Hague conference of Oct. 15, 1908, and the declaration of London of Feb. 26, 1909. News of the formal declaration of war ran through the city before extra editions of the papers could reach the vendors' hands and was everywhere greeted, with a spirit which might be described as close to religious exaltation. Serbs Mass in Fortified Towns. Berlin, Germany.—Through Mitrovita runs an old Roman road, for centuries the highway for eastbound armies, and Austria's forces have been made strongest in the adjoining province of Bosnia, where pro-Serb feeling is strong. Servian forces have been massed in the fortified towns on Valyevo and Uzhitza, on the Bosnian frontier, as well as at Priboj, where they are in immediate touch with the Montenegrin. Strong divisions of volunteers guard the Drina, the Servian-Bosnian boundary, and troops from the interior are rushing to their support. The Serbs are in even greater force at Svilajnatz, on the River Morava, to the south of Belgrade. The greater part of the kingdom is in the wide valley of the Morava, and since the stream is navigable for a considerable distance, the Serbs are preparing to resist invasion along that line. The Austrian warships on the Danube, 30 miles east of Belgrade, are without opposition and their control of the Danube is absolute. Austria appears to have more than a million troops within striking distance of the frontier and as many more are under way. The entire railroad system has been utilized to the demoralization of freight service and the delivery of food supplies, and the telegraph and telephone services are still so busy with war office messages that private communications are disregarded. Wounds and Murders. Schenectady, N. Y.-After shooting and seriously wounding his sister-in-law, Mrs. Simon N. Putnam, at her home in Pattersonville, Charles B. Henry, a farm laborer, shot and killed her husband, a truck gardener, Henry was arrested and admitted the crime. The police were informed he had been drinking heavily of late and that his wife had been residing with the Putnams. Friends assert that Henry attributed his wife's leaving him to the Putnams' influence. RUSSIA WILL TAKE SIDES WITH SERVIA Sends Austria Notification of Her Intention to Uphold Latter's Enemy. CZAR ORDERS MOBILIZATION 'I Have Been Patient Seven years, but My Patience Is Exhausted and I Am Determined to Show Austria She Can't Trifle With Russia Any Longer.' By C. P. Bertelli. Paris, France.—Following immediately upon the firing of the first shots on the Danube Russia Wednesday sent Austria notification of her intention to uphold Servia. This note is tantamount to an ultimatum. This news was received from St. Petersburg in a code telegram and it emanates from the most authoritative source. Had not Russia taken extraordinary precautions to prevent any communication of any character from crossing the frontier since last Saturday, her intention to support Servia on the battlefield would have been known four days ago. Orders Mobilization Rushed. The information received Wednesday night arrived by special messenger from St. Petersburg. Martial law was declared in St. Petersburg on Saturday, after a cabinet meeting at Krasnole Selo, when the czar said: "I have been patient for seven years, but my patience is now exhausted and I am determined to show Austria she cannot trifle with Russia any longer." The czar thereupon ordered that mobilization be pushed through secretly, beginning with 10 army corps along the Austrian frontier. The strictest censorship was immediately enforced, the press gagged and all private telegrams stopped. Russia's uncompromising yet polite attitude toward England and other pacific powers is merely a pretext to gain time. It is no secret that three weeks is ordinarily necessary to put her great army on war footing, but preparations have been carried on so swiftly that the general staff is confident that all will be in readiness considerably earlier. Russia's Firm Note. Russia's firm note to Austria followed immediately upon the news of the bombardment of Belgrade. Had the Servian troops obtained the first success over Austria, Russia might have relented, but probabilities now are that Russian troops may already have crossed the frontier and invaded Galicia. It is the czar's firm intention to do away once for all with Austria's pretensions at exclusive right in the Balkans, a kind of Monroe doctrine of her own founding. Therefore, a conflict between two groups of European powers seems inevitable. This great struggle of races illustrates in a most vivid manner the utter lack of foresight of half the statesmen of Europe. The rough and ready patchwork European diplomacy, which the triple alliance and the triple entire represent, has brought England, France and Italy on the brink of the worst war in history on behalf of the Slav cause, which in reality is as great menace to them as it is to Germany and Austria. The best authorities believe these are the inner thoughts of the very French statesmen who are now asserting their determination to back Russia, the greatest Slav power, with the mighty French army. Germany Would Cripple Servia. The immediate object of Germany and Austria is to cripple Servia in order to increase the force with which Austria may in the future face Russia and thus leave Germany safe to send more army corps against France. The French view is that every Serb killed in the present war means another German to fight against France. The unbroken solidarity of the Slav people makes the outlook for Germany and Austria extremely dangerous, with Russia will march Roumania, with half a million finely trained, splendidly equipped troops. Her plans, hitherto to a mystery, are definitely set forth in the following statement made by Alexander La Hovay, Roumanian minister in Paris: If the connet is localized Roumania will play the part of watchdog over Bulgaria. If Russia intervenes we take the field with her. The latest action of my government is the mobilization of our Fifth army corps, which represents one-fifth of our fighting strength, and is stationed on the Bulgarian border with the mission of keeping the Bulgarian frontier forces under observation. Bulgaria would have much to gain by Servia's defeat, as she would seize the opportunity to compel restitution of conquered Turkish territory taken from her after the recent Serbo-Bulgarian trouble." Cornea Found in Bay Uprise Park Red Bank, N.J. The body of Elliott McMallon of Montclair and New York, whose friends are said to have agreed on raising a fund of $50,000 with which to conduct a search for him after his mysterious disappearance, was found floating in Raritan bay at Port Montmouth and was later identified by relatives. Although the coroner gave the cause of death as accidental drowning, it is intimated that Mr. Marshall may have jumped overboard from a route boat bound from New York to Atlantic Highlands. BERENICE CLAYPOOL Miss Berenice Claypool is the daughter of Representative H. C. Claypool of Ohio. She is prominent in the younger congressional set in Washington. MADAME HENRIETTE CAILLAUX IS FREED BEAUTIFUL WIFE OF FORERI FRENCH PREMIER FOUND NOT GUILTY BY JURY. Woman Glausted Gaston Calmette, Not in Cold Blood, According to Jurors, but While Temporarily Insane Through Fear Editor Would Publish Love Letters. Paris, France—Mme, Caillaux la free. After deliberating less than an hour on the evidence of the most sensational trial in the criminal annals of France, the jury brought in a verdict of not guilty. Mme Caillaux killed Gaston Calmette, editor of Le Figaro, not cold blood, according to jurors, but while temporarily insane through fear that he would publish letters which had passed between herself and her husband when their love was illicit. Maitre Labori's Plea. Maitre Labori Plea. It is probable that the unwritten law also plays its part in bringing about the acquittal of the beautiful wife of the former French premier. The delicate "point of honor" was dwell upon at length by Maitre Labori in his plea for the prisoner, who sat weeping softly as he talked. And the plea had its effect. Before he finished several of the jurors were in tears. The verdict was no surprise to the thronged courtroom. Toward the close of the trial, indeed, the state virtually abandoned its efforts to secure a conviction. The public prosecutor even went so far as to make a strong public plea in Mme. Caillau's favor—and against this the steadily weakening demand of Maitre Chenu, representing the Calmette children, that the prisoner be sent to the gullotine was impotent. Nevertheless for all that the verdict "not guilty" was expected, its announcement by the jurors was greeted with an uprora which seemed to shake the very walls of the Palais du Justice. Woman's Life Lair Bare. Mme. Callaux was sitting crouched in her chair, her face buried in her hands, when the jury entered with the verdict. Throughout the afternoon he looked listening to alternative demands that her head pay the forfeit for her crime and pleas for her life. She had heard herself excoriated as a woman without shame, a murderess to whom illicit passion was dearer than human life. Then she heard herself defended—he mercy begged in her behalf. But through it all her life—the things she held, most sacredly secret—were laid bare. All during the summing up Mme. Callaux sobbed. When the jury finally filed out to its deliberation the entire body was twitching, the cheeks stained with tears and her eyes sunken. Mme. Callaux looked up quickly as the jurors re-entered the courtroom with their verdict and clenched her hands so tightly that her finger nails cut into the flesh. Then as the words "not guilty" were pronounced, with a wild, almost insane laugh that seemed half a sob she rose with arms extended toward her husband. Her hair, already disheveled, came unfasted and fell about her shoulders. Impatiently she brushed it back and began sobbing out her husband's name. Callaux finally managed to reach his wife's side and taking her by the hand led the way out into the corridor. There the crowds surged about them, shouting congratulations. Corpse Bides at Throttle Sterling, III.—A dead man held the lives of several score passengers on the Overland limited in his cold, lifeless hand. When the train entered Sterling at 60 miles an hour and showed no signs of slacking, Joe Garrison, fireman, investigated, and found the corpse of Engineer Louis Van Vlack leaning from the cab window, his hand on the throttle, and staring ahead with sightless eyes. The coroner reported that Van Vlack had been dead from heart disease. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS NEWS NOTES OF GENERAL INTEREST KERNELS CULLED FROM THE MOST IMPORTANT EVENTS.

Cleveland SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1914. Early last year, there was hardly a member of the race in this city that did not fully realize the need of a member of the Ohio Legislature. Have we forgotten so soon? Why is it that our men and women of Cleveland are apparently unconcerned as to the nomination of a member of the race, on August 11, as a candidate for the Legislature? Wake up and get active, now!—before it is too late. It is not going to be an easy thing to get what we really want and need, this time. THEY BREED PREJUDICE, IN THE NORTH. "Jimcrowism" in Chicago, started by its Y. M. C. A., "exclusively for Negroes," which was opened some months ago and dedicated about a month ago, continues to spread, just as The Gazette predicted when the unfortunate movement was launched. Now, anything may be expected, it seems, in that city and vicinity, as a result. The "jimcrow" Christian (?) association is a dangerous breeder of prejudice wherever it is found, here in the North. Evanston is a city of 40,000, contiguous to Chicago. Read the following, from a recent issue of a Chicago daily paper—it shows that the effort to force separate schools on our people of that city, that began just as soon as the "jimcrow" Y. M. C. A. was assured, is not the latter's only benevolent effect; to date: "The banquet of postal clerks in Evanston in honor of the new post master, George Taylor, was preceded yesterday with a bit of dispute over the advisability of recognizing or ignoring the color-line. After a protest from seven Negroes in the organization had been met by a refusal of the committee of arrangements to alter its plans, the Negroes refused to attend. For them exclusively at the Avenue house was unoccupied last night. About 100 clerks of the Evanston post-office attended the banquet." All honor to those seven "Negroes," none of whom we hope are identified with Chicago's prejudice-breeder—"Negro Y. M. C. A." We shall never forget the demand (made in the daily papers of Chicago soon after it was announced that the money for the "Jimcrow" Y. M. C. A. had been raised as the result of "a great rally") that, "now, since Chicago Negroes have secured a Y. M. C. A. why not give them separate schools?" This question was put to the Chicago public by a public school teacher (white). And there are a number of colored teachers in that city, too. Even this, did not open the eyes of many of our people of Chicago to what was coming and soon, as a result of establishing a prejudice breeder in the shape of their "Jimcrow" Y. M. C. A. Will our people here in the North ever learn the less son being taught many of them in Chicago and its suburban cities and towns, like Evanston, and the place nearer to the "Windy City" where, immediately after "the great (jimcrow) Y. M. C. A. rally," aristocratic residents organized and began a movement, for "jimcrow" schools in that great city, whilst at times has been aggressive enough to compel Chicago Afro-Americans to appeal to the Mayor, and if memory serves us correctly, even to the Governor of Illinois, for help in their effort to preserve the present status of the public schools there, at least so far as it concerns our people. And if it had not been for that broad-minded and splendid woman superintendent of Chicago's schools, the Lord only knows what the condition would have been by this time. FORAKER, COLE AND HARDING. When Senator Foraker was fighting the battle, for "The Black Battalion" and the race, that cost him his seat in the U. S. Senate, his opponents, our former colleagues in the Ohio Legislature, the Hon. Ralph D. Cole, was in Congress, and the Hon. Warren G. Harding, was editing the Marlor Star. Did either, or both of them, ever do or say anything in behalf of "The Black Battalion," or any of our people in Ohio or anywhere else, at that time or any other, that was heard as a whisper in this state or out of it? We have been here, "on the firing line" for the race, for the past thirty-one years, every week, and want to know because we do not even remember ever hearing the whisper. It would be ingratitude, amounting almost to a crime, for a member of the race in this state to fail to vote at the primaries on August 11, and for Senator Foraker. As far as we are concerned there is only one candidate for the nomination for U. S. Senator in Ohio, these days. Let us be MEN—work hard from now until the primaries for the Senator, and then walk to the polls on August 11 and do our DUTY! Be as loyal to him as he has always been to us; especially when fighting that great and long-drawn-out battle for our "soldier-boys in blue." Let our ministers and newspapers throughout the state "tell the story" to our people daily, including Sunday, from now until August 11. We owe it to him brethren of the pulpit and the press. REPRESENTATION IN THE LEGIS LATURE. There is an opportunity for our people of Cleveland to have a member of the next Legislature. It will come on August 11; but they have certainly got to work hard from now until that time if they would take advantage of the opportunity. Last year we, all, felt the need, and sorely too, of such representation — when that vicious anti-intermarriage bill of Reppart's was pending and about to pass. It would have made our girls the helpless victims of any white scoundrel that could, by any means, take advantage of them, and there would have been no redress in the courts for us, either, if the miserable bill had become a law. Don't you think that you had better wake up, brother, and take an exceptional interest in the coming primaries, and work hard for the representation we refer to? Better begin now! This is a matter of sufficient importance for our local clergy to bring to the attention of their various congregations, immediately. Sound the note of warning and do not longer let our people "sleep on their rights." OUR THIRTY-SECOND YEAR. With this issue, The Gazette enters upon its thirty-second year, having been published every week on time since August 25, 1883. A remarkable record for any publication! It will be noticed that in thirty-one years, we have gained in time almost a month. From the very beginning, it has been edited and managed by the writer who can hardly realize that so long a time "in the saddle," has elapsed. The Gazett's successful efforts to wipe out the remnants of Ohio's "Blue Laws," years ago, secure the enactment of Ohio's Civil Rights and Anti-Lynch laws, are well-known to our people, particularly those here in Ohio. What it has done, in hundreds of instances, to help, defend and encourage our people, is also well known. One has only to recall the successful fight, led by The Gazette early last year, to kill the Ohio Assembly's anti-intermarriage bill, to appreciate the full force of the preceding sentence. Personal interests have always been subordinated in The Gazette to those of our people. Its call to Afro-Americans, in season, and is never to accept anything in treatment, less than that due all citizens, without reference to class or color. When it comes to our citizen rights, here in the North, we always been unalterably opposed to a "doctrine of surrender" or corollary policy, and shall continue to be so. The Gazette believes in demanding for our people, in this section of the country, and continuing to fight for until secured, ALL that is due all American citizens under the law. THIS IS OUR SLOGAN! The Gazette's firm adherence to principle, through all these years, is its best recommendation for greater support. The lack of sufficient patronage is the only thing that has prevented the doubling of the size of this paper and making other improvements we have greatly desired for years. Here is where our faithful following, thousands of readers in all parts of the country, from ocean to ocean, and from the great lakes to the gulf, can afford us material assistance, if they will. Urge your friends and acquaintances to subscribe for The Gazette and by the first of the year double our circulation. For all you have done in past years, we thank you and assure you of our thorough appreciation. HARRY C. SMITH. WALTER W. FRISTOE. Candidate for the Republican Nomination for County Recorder.

Of Columbiaiana County—A Republican Candidate for Secretary of State—A True and Tried Friend of the Race. CHARLES B. GALBREATH was born in Columbiaiana county in 1888. He is of Quaker descent. His ancestors came from North Carolina to Ohio in 1894, because their hostilities to slavery had involved them in controversies with the task-masters of that slave-holding state. His grandfather was active in aiding slaves to escape from their masters through the "underground railroad" in the years before the Civil War. After earning his way through high school and college, he received the degree of A. M. from Mount Union College. He had been teacher and superintendent of schools, school of law, the paper, county school-examiner and college professor. From 1896 to 1911 he was State Librarian of Ohio, and under his ad CHAS. B. GALBREATH. ministration the traveling library department, together with the departments of library organization and legislative reference were established. He was secretary of the recent Constitutional Convention and editor of the two large volumes of Proceedings of the Convention, magazines, newspapers, and historical publications. Mr. Galbread has long been a student of constitutional questions and is thoroughly familiar with state affairs. His experience and qualifications especially fit him. It is believed, for a faithful reader, that Mr. Galbread is Secretary of State. His Republicism is of the progressive kind and was recognized as such before the third party was thought of. If nominated, he will, by attracting the support of a reunited party and independent Democrats, prove a sense of strength and the man he were employed in the State Library, while Mr. Galbread was at the head of this department, and his attitude toward the race has been such as to win him our sincere friendship.—Adv. HON. E. C. WOODWORTH. Candidate for the Republican Nomination for Treasurer of State—Showed Practical Friendship for the Race Representative E. C. C. Woodworth of Athens, should be the Republican nominee for Treasurer of State at the primaries August 11th, because he is a candidate with real political assets and can win at the November election. He is a life-long resident of Athens county, where he received his education in the public schools and Ohio university, and for ten years he taught school and, for ten years engaged in active newspaper work. In 1898 he enlisted in the Seventh Regiment, O. V. L, and served to the close of the Spanish-American war. Representative Woodworth was elected and served two terms as treasurer of Athens county, and is now the present member of the House of Representatives from Athens county, serving his second term. In the 79th General Assembly he was the author of the first even one of the proposed Ohio laws for the employment of convicts on the public highways. In the 80th General Assembly the Democratic majority stole this idea of convict labor and incorporated it in a law passed at that session. He is the author of the law giving teachers two days in which to take examinations. He voted and worked for the Workman's Compensation law and the House of Representatives for the betterment of the workman. In the 80th General Assembly he took a leading part in killing the pernicious Reppart bill, introduced for the sole purpose of insulting the Colored people of Ohio. It was Representative Woodworth who made the initial move which resulted in the deserved death of bill for which he is located right, in Southeastern Ohio, which has not had a candidate for a state office for years. Let the slogan be: 'WIN WITH WOODWORTH.'—Adv. Urged for Recorder of Deeds. Washington, D. C.-Senator Pomerene, Monday, went to the President in behalf of Sully Jaymes, a lawyer, of Springfield, O., who wants to be recorder of deeds for the District of Columbia. Representative J. D. Post, of Washington C. H., placed Jaymes in line as a candidate for this job and he and Pomerene have been working hard for the appointment. Somebody has "taken advantage" of both Messrs. Pomerene and Post. CORRESPONDENTS WANTED.

SPRINGFIELD.—The forty-first annual session of the North Ohio Sunday School Institute was held at North St. A. M. E. church, this city, July 21-24. The program was interesting and instructive, and the motto of the Institute, "Greater Efficiency," was well carried out. Seven of the nine instructors, appointed for the various departments, gave the delegates much information, although the various lines of S. S. work, which if taken home and used, will do much toward raising the standard of our Sunday School. The people of this city exerted themselves to make everything as it was meant, and the members of the Institute who were soon forget their kind hospitality. Rev W. H. Coleman, Glendale, the "father" of the Institute, was re-elected president. The general opinion seemed to be that this was the best session the Institute had ever had, and a year of wonderful results is expected. SANDUSKY—Mrs. S. A.

HART, ESQ A Deserving Republican of the "Old School," Who is Capable and Who Merits the Consideration He Is Seeking. William J. Hart, seeking the nomination for judge of the court of Common Pleas of this district at the Republican primaries on August 11, 1914, has been a resident of Cleveland for thirty-six years, and was editor, and teacher, and finally, while teaching, began the study of law under the instructions and in the office of Rufus P., and Henry C. Ranney of Cleveland, he was asked to the bar in October, 1882. In 1883 and 1889, he was elected Justice of the Peace of Cleveland Township, and has been continually in the practice of his WM. J. HART, ESQ. chosen profession since October, 1885. He has built up a large and varied clientage, and his profession has called him into every court in the state—Ady. "Squire Hart", as he is generally addressed by the scores who know him, is broad-minded, genial, wholesouled, capable and deserving; a staring friend of the race for years, and The Gazette commends him, in the strongest possible manner, to the favorable consideration of the four thousand Afro-American voters of this city and county. If nominated and elected, he will make one of the best judges this judicial district has ever had. F. J. VAN WYE. Candidate for a Republican Nomination as State Senator—Active, Capable and Deserving. F. J. Van Wye is 42 years of age and has lived in Cleveland 19 years, never holding public office. But his wide experience as an advertising man and lecturer mark him as an exceptionally well-qualified candidate for the office he seeks. He was born and reared on a farm in Trumbull County, O. and worked his way through college by teaching school. His grandfather's farm was a station on the famous "Underground Railroad" in the days before the war of the rebellion; two of his uncles were enlisted in 1861, and came home Colonel of his regiment, at the close of the war. Thus it can be seen that F. J. Van Wye was reared in an atmosphere of Republican patriotism, and naturally, as a result, is a firm believer in equality and justice to all. He believes in the enforcement of the Fifteenth amendment and is bitterly opposed to the injustice and oppression of our people in the Southern states and wherever it exists. I nominated and elected, he can be trusted, and I oppose the oppressed at all times, and therefore deserves the support of every Colored voter in Cuyahoga county. Vote for P. M. *widely*.

A well rendered dramatic reading by the madame and vocal numbers by Mme. Kittle S. Mitchell, in her exceptional style, delighted the thirty guests present. At its regular meeting at Mrs. Blanche Gilmore's, the Du Bois Literary club planned for its annual outing to be held at Cedar Point. The second week in August, Guests present were: Mesdames Hearn, John Fairfax, James Tilley, Messrs. W. McNaughton, J. W. Wills and Rev. J. M. Gilmore. We desire to ask all interested in --- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 1, 1914 --- the candidacy of the editor of The Gazette for State Representative to speak to their white Republican friends and acquaintances also, urging them, too, to be sure to vote for him (to put an X before his name on the ticket) on Aug. 11, the day of the primaries. Do not forget this, please. Shiloh Baptist church will celebrate its fifty-fifth anniversary, Aug. 9, and the fifth anniversary of the pastor, Rev. Edw. H. Smith.

The Ohio A. C. and Balley's Giants will play, Sunday, at 9 a. m. on the Lake-Front grounds, No. 1. The Giants have requested The Gazette to ask why the Z Stars fear to play them? Both teams, it seems, have not lost a game this season. One of the Stars answer the Giants' question? Our columns are open to them. Mrs. Ia Perkins, president, very pleasantly entertained the Deborah class of St. John's Sunday School, Tuesday evening, at her home, 2307 E. 86th St. The class numbers thirty-three, Mrs. Blunt being the efficient teacher, P.

The community was shocked to learn of the death of one of its most promising young men, Mr. Eugene Robinson, Monday, followed on Tuesday morning early by that of his loving mother, Mr. Frisbie Robinson, who was too much for her. The family resides on E. 76th St. Mr. Robinson, the father and husband, has been a trusted employee of the Forest City House for years. The son was a member of the Boehner Class of St. John's church. Mr. Saul A. Lacus, teacher, hired a operation table at "Charity" hospital. The Columbus (O.) Independent died a month or two ago. A few weeks prior to its demise, its editor and publisher, Floyd G. Snelson, Jr., offered The Gazette its subscription list, which he said consisted of about 300 three-monthly' subscriptions and a dozen year-old book that would have unexpired terms, with copies of The Gazette. He also offered The Gazette a "new "Smith" type-writer if we would assume an indebtedness of $40 cash on it and the balance of $50 worth of advertising due the type-writer company on the purchase price ($100) of the type-writer. The Gazette refused the offers. Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of that great race paper, The Cleveland, Ohio, Gazette, and thrice a member of the Ohio Legislature, is again, at the solicitation of hundreds of Afro-American and white friends, seeking the nomination for the legislature from his, the Cleveland district.) The Pioneer Press has noted the strenuous career and long service of Editor Smith during the 30 or more years that it has known him, and he has never been found wanting in that one most important quality of a man who of course would eminently fit him for the honor which is rightfully his, but the qualifications possessed by him are so many and varied, that it would be in the nature of a calamity for his constituents in Cuyahoga County to allow him to fall in either the nomination or election. Not only is Editor Smith intensely interested in everything affecting the welfare of the race with which he is identified, but he is truly a representative man—one having hundreds of pale-face friends who know his standard. In conclusion, it gives us pleasure to know such a man as Editor Smith is seeking membership in Ohio's legislature, and it is the shiney wish of the Pioneer Press that he may be successful at the primaries on August 11—Martimabra (W. Va.) Pioneer Press. RUDOLPH W. ARCHER Candidate for the Republican Nomination for State Treasurer—A Friend of the Race. The subject of this sketch, Mr. Rudgeh W. Archer, was born in Bellevue, Belmont county, Ohio, Sept. 29, 1883; served his county as treasurer from 1903 to 1911, and as a Republican, has always been found in the front ranks, Belting for the party, for the nation for treasurer of state, has special significance to, and special charm at the hands of, Republicans of Ohio, from the fact that he was the party's candidate for the same office two years ago when the state ticket was defeated by the Democratic landslide. That is why his friends are advancing his candidacy in such a vigorous manner as to make him the nominee, this fall, and they solicit the fullest investigation for the position he serves. Mr. Archer, as the matter of fact, is entitled to the nomination on Aug. 11, and our voters of the state will make no mistakes in voting for him. He has throughout his life been friendly to our people and will show this in a practical way if nominated and elected. Remember Rudolph Acher, Archer, candidate for the measure, student, vote at the primaries, August 11—Adv. HENRY I. EMERSON. ESQ. Candidate for the Republican Nomination for Congress in the Twenty-Second District — A Good Friend of the Race. Mr. Emerson comes from "New England stock," and has conducted one of the hardest-fought campaigns ever carried on in this part of the state. He is one of the common people—easy to approach, and is highly spoken of among our people here in Cleveland HENRY I. EMERSON, ESQ. because his friends among us are many, the friends of quiet demonstrations of true friendships among many years. When you go to the primaries, August 11, do not forget Henry I. Emerson, a leading attorney of this city for many years. He is capable of candidate for Congress, add strength to the Republican ticket, this fall—Adv. VOLCANOES IN ACTION VOLCANOES IN ACTION TERRIFIC DAMAGE DONE WHEN MOUNTAINS BLOW UP. Long List of Disasters Due to Eruptions—That of Krakatoa in 1883 About the Worst of Which There Is Record. The eruption of Sakura recalls that of Mount Pelee, which destroyed St. Pierre, Martinique, the most beautiful city in the West Indies, with appalling suddenness. Like Sakura, the volcanic peak of Pelee had been quiescent for a long period, and was believed to be practically extinct. It smoked a little for a few days before it blew up, but it had previously sent up similar thin, vaporous clouds at intervals of ten or twenty years—so nobody paid attention to its seemingly harmless activity. Without warning a pillar of rock shot up from the crater of Mount Pelee to a height of nearly 100 feet, and a rent opened half-way up the mountain's slope, from which blew a hot blast, stupefying and incinerating every organic thing in the path of its withering breath. In less time than it takes to tell, St. Pierre, with nearly its entire population, was wiped out and buried in the rain of ashes which followed the explosion. In its tremendous force, however, the eruption of Sakura more nearly resembles that of Krakatoa in 1883. This is believed to have been the greatest cataclysmic disturbance suffered by the earth in historic times, and possibly within the more recent of the geologic eras. Krakatoa was a volcanic peak rising 2,000 feet above sea level, in Sunda strait. After warning manifestations, which continued several days, the outburst came on August 27. The entire northern half of the volcano was blown away, and the soundings subsequently made showed a depth of 1,000 feet of water where the mountain had stood. An eye-witness of some of the prenomena observed from the shore of Java processes of native boats, held by a current many times more irresistible than that of Niagara and sucked into the vortex caused by the great hole torn in the floor of the ocean. It is estimated that the column of stones and ashes thrown up by Krakatoa's explosion shot up to a height of 17 miles. Nearby islands were covered with volcanic debris to the height of the tree tops of their forests. The dust particles left floating in the upper strata of the atmosphere encompassed the earth as with a belt 75 degrees wide, producing a deep red glow in the sky after sunset for months after the upheaval. On the day of the eruption and for several days thereafter lamps had to be lighted at Batavia at noon. The waves started by the explosion reached almost around the earth. They were distinctly observed at Cape Horn, and were perceptible even in the English channel. The most remarkable fact, however, was the distance to which the noise of the explosion traveled. It was audible in the Philippines, 1,400 miles; at Ceylon, 2,000 miles, and in South Australia 2,200 miles away; and a sea captain claims to have distinctly heard it all the way across the Indian ocean off Zanzibar. --- Even as you're the publication you likely question the meaning of some new word.

Notwithstanding the prevalence of folk songs among the peasantry the deeply-rooted love for classical music that pervades all Italy retains the introduction of American "ragtime" music which is making its way but slowly in that kingdom. In Germany, on the other hand, American music, especially ragtime, is very popular and has a good and ready sale, says a United States consular report. A German music publishing firm in Berlin is said to copy the popular and "catchy" instrumental music and sell it in all parts of Germany; songs are also translated and published by this firm, and some of these American songs are quite popular. Music dealers in Strasburg say the German firm referred to can sell the copied music more cheaply than the original can be imported from America.

LAUNDRY AGENCY AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS "The farm is the place for the people of my race," said H. P. Ewing, in referring to the Kaw Valley Truck Farm company. "We aim to come to Kansas City and hire our help. Men who are loafing around the street corners now will be given an opportunity to earn good wages and also will be taught practical farming, in all its branches. "We are now employing nine men at the farm and will have employment for 60 when harvest time comes. As fast as our capital will permit we will lease other lands, carrying out the same system in vegae at our present location, which we call Farm No. 1. Judge Sims of Kansas City, Kan., has promised he will parole to us some of the negroes sentenced for minor offences, so that we may make better men of them." Among some of the ideas Ewing has put to practical use in his plan for intensive farming is in the raising of spinach. This he drills in and cultivates thoroughly, resulting in a plant that commands a ready market. Between the spinach rows he plants tomato vines. In 20 days the spinach is harvested and the tomato plants are in shape to furnish another good crop from the same piece of ground. In one plot of 20 acres on the association farm he has watermelons, tomatoes and turnips. Between the watermelon rows are two rows of turnips, and between the turnip rows a row of tomatoes are planted. The watermelon vines curling around the tomato plants steady them during hard winds, resulting in a sturder plant, while the tomato plants furnish shade for the watermelons, each benefiting the other and at the same time making the ground produce twice what it otherwise would. While a board of directors controls the Kaw Valley Truck Farm company the farm work is under the direct management of Ewing. The officers are: Rev. J. R. Richardson, president; Rev Bowen, vice-president; Rev D. B. Jackson, treasurer; H. P. Ewing, secretary and manager; Rev George McNeal, assistant treasurer; Nick Chiles, auditor; J. F. Bradley, attorney—Kansas City Star. No wonder the colored men, with the habits and traditions inherited from slave ancestors, tends to idle self-indulgence, where work is to be laid for the asking, and food to be obtained by the occasional use of net rod, or gun. A colored family can be brought up in rude abundance if the head of the household earns in cash even as little as $150 or $200 a year and this he can do by working two days a week. On most of the tidal streams a boy of ten can supply the family with fish much of the year by tending a set net morning and evening. There are basket-making communities where all adults who choose can earn from $1 to $2 a day the year round. There are canneries where men and women are employed for most of the year in canning oysters, vegetables and fruit for nearly ten months out of twelve—Exchange. Attempts recently were made to grow tobacco commercially in the south of England. In Ireland the department of agriculture for several years has offered substantial bounties in connection with this industry. However, neither in Ireland nor in England has the attempt gone further than the experimental stage. The christening of the steamship Liberia, the "Back to Africa" vessel controlled exclusively by negroes, took place at Galveston, Tex. The Liberia was waiting to take a large number of negroes to Africa under the leadership of A. C. Sam. Speech making and the breaking of a bottle over the bows by an Oklahoma negro girl formed the christening ceremony. New York will have the highest jail building so far erected if present plans are carried out. It will be built in Thirthill street, near Sixth avenue, will be 14 stories tall and will cost about forty-five thousand dollars. It is planned chiefly for the care of women prisoners. In the Malay peninsula an English naturalist has discovered a species of ant that makes its nest in the fleshy stems of ferns that grow on the limbs of trees high in the air. Probably the highest death rate of any city in the world belongs to Cochabamba, Boilvia, where there was a mortality of 75 in each 1,000 last year. The Bank of the Phillipine Islands received about April 1 from the syndicate mine in Masabate a consignment of 600 ounces of gold, valued at $10,000. This makes the second shipment from the same mine in two weeks. The smallest tax bill in New York is on property in Tottenville. The assessment is $1 and the tax amounts to one cent a year. The city already has spent four cents for postage stamps in an effort to collect the one cent. The agricultural experiment station in Pullman, Wash., is establishing an arboretum in which it is proposed to grow a group of each of the important timber trees of the temperate zone. Telling the people through newspapers and in other ways of the 160 or more species of birds to be found in their home town is the task which the Sloux City Bird club has set itself. Last year there were 31,499 home-stand entries in the Canadian North west. Creek-Seminole Agricultural college, founded by President J. C. Leftwich, under the Christian churches, is the most potent factor in developing the town, and Christian education and agricultural training among the Indian and negro youths of the town, community and state. Mr. Leftwich founded this college seven years ago, without a dollar to begin with, but with the encouragement of J. H. O. Smith, formerly minister of First Christian church of Oklahoma City, Okla.; he ventured to build a large institution. It was believed, among the people of the town, community and state, that to build a school of such character out in the forest, and in a new country, was simply folly and out of the question. Pluck and tenacity dominated the spirit of the young man to try, if but to fail. To the astonishment of all, Mr. Leftwich succeeded, in seven years, in building up a plant valued at $25,000, 300 students, and faculty of eight instructors. Eighty of the students are full-blooded Indians. Mr. Leftwich was succeeding nicely up until the 18th of May, 1912, when his main building burned, at a loss of $10,000; five students were burned to death. This was a great blow to the president and to the college. Mr. Leftwich is still determined to build a great institution, and asks the aid of his brethren in the effort to do so. This is the finest field in America for the brotherhood to help build and foster a college for Indians and negroes. President Leftwich has been traveling in the North for 12 months, appealing to the Christian churches to help him in his hour of struggle and trials. He is attempting to raise $8,000. The college proper will be located on 40 acres of land, as an agricultural experiment station. This institution is located in the heart of the red and black belt of Oklahoma, only 20 miles from Craz (Indian) Snake's "Stump" and camp grounds. This institution now calls on the churches and interested friends to raise $2,000 at once—Exchange. How long will the negro be upon this step of life's ladder, depending upon the whites for assistance? The monotony is unpleasant to the ear in this progressive age. If they have been like the grasshopper, instead of the ant, consider the punishment as the reward. If they had learned self-reliance in the nineteenth century, the negro problem would have been solved today. If negro men would form stock companies to purchase lands, erect buildings and establish stores they would not be dependent upon the white union for work. Apparently they have not the necessary confidence.—Exchange. Bohemia has a forest area equal to 29 per cent of its total area, and the quantity of wood cut annually averages 6,474,105 cubic yards, of which 4,316,070 cubic yards are suitable for building and manufacturing, and the remainder for fuel. Bohemia exports annually about one million three hundred and seven thousand cubic yards of forest products to Germany. As a result of promising surface indication of petroleum near Villamarin, a small town 27 miles from Jerez, the Spanish government has appropriated 700,000 pesetas (approximately $126,000) for exploring the region thoroughly, and has sent a force of engineers into the field. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago has sent his check for $25,000 toward the erection of a building for negro men by the Young Men's Christian association of Kansas City. This is the fifth city to receive a like sum for Young Men's Christian association buildings for negroes. Besides Kansas City they are Washington, Philadelphia, Indianapolis and Chicago. A popular drink among the peasants of Russia is called quass. It is made by pouring warm water over rye or barley meal. It is fermented liquor and is very sour, but has been used for years by these poverty stricken people. Sandy Archer, a former slave, believed to be one hundred and twelve years old, died in Hayden station, Conn., at the home of Mrs. M. E. Garrett. He had lived there for more than sixty years. At the close of 1911 the asylums in Ireland held 24,655 insane, or 5.63 to each 1,000 population. In 1880 it was 2.50 in each 1,000. Philo Thomas of La Prairie, Wis., is wearing a pair of the old style knee-high variety of shoes which he says he bought in Janesville in the sprlg. of 1872. 42 years ago. He has h. 1 them rebottomed four times. One of the senior directors of the Hamburg-American line said recently that although the Vaterland is 960 feet long, another ten years was likely to clapse before a thousand-foot liner would be built. The Panama-Pacific expedition has established a clearing house for lost children and relatives and has communication with the entro San Francisco telephone system. Two hundred megaphones have been ordered by the British war office for military use. They will be used chiefly by artillery officers to give commands at a distance. There are a whole lot of married rabbits who go downtown and pose as lions.

AUTOS TO FEDERAL STARS MODES FOR NOW ON The Tunic, Casco Basque Are O the Sea THERE'S VOGUE Black Very Much In in the Least Excuse Manager Dunn of the Orioles considers Shore one of the greatest pitchers in the country. This fellow, who was once with the Giants, is almost 6 feet 4 inches in height and built in proportion. "The Baltimore magnate declares the big fellow has as much speed as Walter Johnson. President Barrow emphatically denies the report that a Richmond syndicate has made an offer for the Baltimore club; and adds that the team would not be moved to Richmond even if Manager Dunn should sell his club to anyone outside of Baltimore. Says the New York Amedican: "Even if he fails to win a pennant, Joe Tinker is sure of undying fame. He has had a cigar named after him. We do not hesitate to say that if you smoke a Joe Tinker cigar you will never forget him." Sheldon LeJeune, who is leading the Western league in hitting this season, is the former White Sox player, but in spite of the fact that every one is looking for hitters, nobody has tried to grab the veteran of many seasons. "Kid" Burns, the East Providence twirler, has signed a contract to play with Jack Dunn's Oriole team. Burns has just finished a successful season with the Mt. St. Joseph's college team of Baltimore. ```markdown ``` Shortstop Dlon, who went to the New England league from New Jersey and tried out on the Lynn team, in the spring, has been sent by the Newark club to Hamilton in the Canadian league. --- Jimmy Isamering, the w. k.

Clarence Walker of the St. Louis Browns is leading the batsmen of the American league. Walker was with the Washington team last year, but was not a sensation with the stick. Garry Herrmann says that he thinks the raid on his ball team is over. After getting about all of the players they think worth while, the outlaws are seeking their men in other fields. Charlie Herzoz says that there is no such thing as luck. In the seven years he has been in major league games he his never seen anything except baseball skill win ball games. The Naps may play Glass in the outfield. That will give them Wood, Graney and Glass, besides the allotted amount of bone, which is material enough for something. --- As a result of its victory over Pennsylvania, Coach Lundgren claims the 1914 collegiate baseball championship, both East and West, for the University of Michigan. Charley Mullen is coming back into the big show again. The former White Sox first sacker, and manager of the Lincoln (Neb.) club, has been gobbled up by Chance. The Millers have signed Ben Chase, a former Chicago semi-pro pitcher, who has been playing this spring with the Cedar Rapids club of the I. I. I. league. The Columbus club has signed pitcher Taylor, a member of the Utica club last season. Taylor was with the Philadelphia Nationals in the South this spring. Perhaps when Ty Cobb swung on that butcher boy he was thinking of vengeance for what Joe Benz, once a butcher boy, did to his batting average. Miller Huggins and his Cardinals are causing a lot of real trouble for the dopesters in the National league by hanging up around the top so long. There is a new Alexander with the Phillies. He is a pitcher and utility player, and a brother of the famous Grover. He will get a trial. We are beginning to wonder where the major leagues get all the good players the Feds take away from them. Captain Schwert of the Penn baseball team, may backstop for the Cincinnati team of the National league. The Harvard baseball team has elected as captain for next season Russell R.

Pitcher Batchley of Champaign, Ill., is being watched closely by Cleveland scouts. Bill Carrigan, manager of the Red Sox, is sweet on his new shortstop, Scott. Bill Gossett, former White Sox and Yankee, will play for the Indianapolis A. A. [Image of a man with a mustache and a suit] John Montgomery Ward, the old Giant shortstop and new business manager of the Brooklyn Federals, has made known a plan whereby the stars of the outlaw league will each receive a $4,000 automobile. The idea was enthusiastically received by President Gilmore. Further details of the plan will be made known in the near future. Eddie Collins calls Vean Gregg, the Naps' southpaw, a left-handed Johnson. We'll go him one better and call Ping Bodie a right-handed Cobb at bat. Pitcher Foster of the Boston Red Sox has shut out teams five times this season—the Brown's twice, and Chicago, Detroit and New York. Manager Herzog of the Cincinnati team writes that he is confident Howard Lohr, the young Philadelphia outfielder, will make good. Manager Griffith announced that hereafter "bone-head" plays by any of his Senators would entail more or less heavy fines. According to President Gilmore St. Louis, Pittsburgh and Kansas City are the only cities now playing to poor crowds. The Milwaukee club has purchased outright Pitcher Shackleford of the Rockford Wisconsin-Illinois League team. Without Stock and Robertson this season, Manager McGraw would hardly be able to keep his team up in first place. George Stallings of the Braves believes the St. Louis Cardinals are the class of the Western teams this year. The Phillies have signed a football player. Gee, and we thought Red Doo in had enough booters now. SPORTING WORLD M. Bazil Zanaroll, a wealthy French sportsman, has given $100,000 to be used by the directors of the French committee of sports in the development of athletics preparatory to the 1916 Olympic games at Berlin. The foundation of the cinder path upon which the Panama-Pacific exposition games will be run off from February 22 to October 24, 1915, will be of shavings instead of straw. "Bud" Goodwin of the New York Athletic club, who holds the American one-mile swimming championship, intends to defend the title. He has worn the crown for fourteen years. James A. Power, the Boston Athletic association runner, holder of the Pacific coast and Australian records for the one-mile run, will enter Georgetown university next fall. Rifle shooting ranks second to skiing as the national sport of Norway. Last year there were 1,600 clubs, with an active membership of 60,000, in that country. Several British golf players are likely to come over to this country for the amateur championship to be held at Ekwanok. Miss Muriel Dodd of Bromborough, Cheshire, England, is the woman golf champion of both Great Britain and Canada. Yale, having beaten Harvard, calmly appropriates the rowing championship, which is a good joke—outside of New Haven. Emperor William of Germany is president of the German Olympic committee having charge of the 1916 revival. The Eastern Intercollegiate Soccer league will begin its next matches on October 21 and conclude December 21. Virginia Barnett, the sensational California filly, is to be brought east for her futurity engagements. Eddie Santry is one of the most-sought-after referees in the country. England has $80,000,000,000 besides 1914 cups in relay, golf and polo. Chattanooga's new golf and country club building will cost $50,000. Australia wants the 1920 Olympic games. MODES FOR FALL NOW ON DISPLAY The Tunic, Cascade and the Basque Are Orders of the Season. THERE'S VOGUE FOR MOHAIR Black Very Much in Evidence, Often in the Least Expected Places—new Rival for Linen for the Heavier Summer Costumes. PARIS—The fall fashions have declared themselves already. The tunic, the basque, the cascade, the wider skirt and the cape in one form or another are all there. Black is very much in evidence, often in the, the least expected places. For instance, Drecoll shows a tunic dress, made of unstitched of a gray purple, with about four inches of a black satin tunic showing beneath. The tunic is going to be worn not a little in the fall, notwithstanding the fact that there are so many advance summer editions of it. Jinny shows a tunic dress of navy blue cashmere, in which the tunic is double; both tunic edges and the underskirt are trimmed with bands of vertically tucked taffeta; a navy blue liberty satin sash is then brought about the waist twice to form a high girdle, then tied low behind in low softly hanging loops. Mohair to Be Popular. Good things to notice about these creations are that mohair promises to be one of the materials of the autumn hour, that the fancy for vertical tucking is to be continued and that sashes are going to be worn with the bows very soft—as opposed to the wired bows of last season. And the basque—of what that? Will it really get a hold upon us? We do not claim the gift of prophecy for ourselves, but the idea certainly seems to have taken a firm grip upon the imaginations that design for us. Bernard is exhibiting a model of ale brown worsted mohair. Now when we speak of the arrival of basques we do not mean that our artists put upon patient womankind the unadulterated, be-buttoned, carefully outlining affaire that crystallized the charms of grandmother. The modern basque barely carries its own message. Bernard's design shows the fairly tight waist and the narrow sleeve, but does not flare over the hand as of old. It is finished by a cuff of stiff brown satin with pointed edges. The waist line of the basque is concealed by means of the same sash effect that Jinny uses, achieving a girdle in the front. The back, however, slopes into a fishtail, over which the sash is tied far down and into the same soft bows. A. New Rival for Linen For the days when the heavier summer materials may, still be worn, for what may be called an advance fall costume, a new material has been created to take the place of linen; it is a corded cotton, and Cheruit has made a tunic dress of it in white. Jinny comes to the front again, with a cascade dress of dark blue pussy willow silk, with a Mexican Aztec design—by the way, silk and design both the creations of an American house. Everyone knows what the cascade is—the flat, soft falling side pannier on the dress, coming to a point and finishing with some such ornament as a tassel. A Russian peasant blouse is worn over this cascade skirt. This is a style, which, like the basque, is peculiarly becoming to the slender. Some of these Russian blouses, by the way, fasten down the back; all we wear is a tunic about it. In this way we breathe a prayer to the powers that be to keep said notion dark in its dungeon. As for capes, they are as settled a thing as if they had already outworn a season. They are being shown in many materials. A new cloth made of chutedo is the last variation on the corduroy idea, the next to the last two being the popular golfine and duvene; they are all glorified corduroys. This last though chutedo is especially nice; the stripes are spaced more widely than in the other two, and there is a plush stripe running between them. Black and White. A very pretty cape has been made of this material, narrow at the shoulders and widening cascade-like miles and miles and miles at the sides. For a threefold reason the capes are mostly cut at the sides to let the hands and arms come through, first of all to facilitate the cascade effect and to insure a warm well hanging front. The front pannier in almost every case is strapped behind under the cloak. A promise of fur as a trimming is hinted at in this cape, as it has an oval shaped collar draping the back. Another cape of brown and white woolen check, about three-quarters of an inch square has the odd and rather likable audacity to wear a belt square across the front. This is another Cheeruit model. And the hat! the hat! It promises to be neither small nor large. Black velvet is again being favored; also the long, narrow streaming, narrow bird-tails of various sorts. Another hat—quite small—is of black taffeta—with merely a small white grosgrain bow of heavy taffeta trimming it. Attuned to Higher Things Attained to Higher Things. "What's the matter with the elevator?" asked the nervous man. "You keep trying to run it through the roof" "You'll have to excuse me," replied the operator. "I'm not used to one of these little 20-story buil'dors." Question of Height Lady Southwark, in her recently published reminiscences, tells a story of an Irishman who was cutting turf near a box when a friend came up to Of course, while the gowns and wraps and headgear capture the leading roles in this annual comedy of fall fashion, there are many new things in the way of accessories that play the important part of animated acency. For example, there is a hint at the high collar in a neck ruche which reminds one of the bows that appeared years ago behind the ears of the fashionable demoiselle. This ruche is of black accordion plated chiffon, about six inches wide, gathered in the middle, and framing the face as did the Elizabethan ruffle. It is a pliant even though a not generally becoming fashion. The fad for pique is being encouraged by a pique stole and vest, heavily embroidered with a rose-leaf design; and ribbons of extraordinary design and texture are going to be used not a little for trimmings and facings and girdles. A really marvelous ribbon is one that looks precisely like a strip of birch bark, feels like it too, and yet it is ribbon. It is another "Pussy Willow" triumph. There are some who claim that the day of the separate blouse has about passed; in fact, many couturiers are so emphatic about this that we have left our word upon the subject for an emphatic place—the end. The blouses are not dead by any means. They are vigorous, in fact, and are coming out in nets, pussy willow silks and chiffons. The sleeves are all long, many have a waterfall effect at the wrist, but the main thing to note about them is that the tucking and plaiting schemes are reversed. Upon the body of the waist the former vertical plan has been made horizontal, and upon the sleeve the horizontal plan has been banished for the vertical. The necks are for the most part collarless. The favorite fabric designs will be Mexican. The old Aztec designs of bubble, stripe and sacred bird are especially effective. BLOUSES FOR THE SUMMER In Varied and Beautiful Designs, and the Materials Are of the Finish Never have separate waists been more popular than at present, and they are fashioned in various and beautiful designs and in the most charming materials. Almost all smart blouses for the summer have waist-coat fronts and gladstone collars. The all-white designs continue as drooping as those of chiffon have been, and whether made of batiste, handkerchief linen, voile, marquiseette or Persian lawn, whether simply trimmed with tucks or elaborately inserted with lace, they are all adapted to the new figure acquired by the low-busted corsets. Crepe is one of the most popular and practical materials for midsummer blouses, for the reason that it gives the soft, sheer appearance of chiffon and yet launders beautifully and wears well, and the range of colors in which the material may be brought is very large. Sheer colored linen waists are made in tailored style. When white is used the collars, cuffs and fronts are touched up with colored linen bands. Lace waists are combined with crepe de chine, taffeta or fancy ribbon, or other material which will give a touch of color. They are also made up over a colored chiffon or net lining, particularly in yellow, flesh, absinthe and wisteria. Long sleeves and short sleeves all have their place. The long sleeve has the special advantage, now that women are all slender, of covering up any scragginess at the elbow, and is the favorite sleeve for waists and dresses that are worn out of doors, but as a rule is not the favorite for gowns to be worn indoors. Here are worn elbow sleeves, three-quarter sleeves and those that are neither the one nor the other. In regard to wear, there is not much variety, as all sleeves, what-over their type or length may be, should cling to the arm. To Make a Dress Form. There is no doubt that the fitting of one's own clothes is a trying process. Dress forms that may be adjusted to one's measurements are important in successful dressmaking. An excellent waist form may be made at home with slight trouble. To make, a fitted bodice foundation lining, including the sleeves, out of a heavy unbleached muslin or drilling; basto and fit it perfectly to your body. To curly with machine stitching. Try on the lining and mark with pins or chalk the normal waist line, and after removing the waist make a permanent mark with rows of machine stitching, or sew on a tape. Now place the waist foundation on an ordinary paper-mache bust form at least two sizes smaller than your size. Fill out the space between the form and lining with wadding or old scraps of material, as required to make a firm foundation form for fitting. The sleeve may be stuffed to within a few inches of the lower edge, and the opening then may be sewed together. Camphor Dispels Dampness Blocks of campiper dispersed in all corners of damp rooms in a new house will effectively banish dampness in a short time, even when fires have proved ineffectual. They should be simply laid on paper, or on the bare shelves of a damp room or linen closet. The blocks gradually decrase in size, and when they finally disappear should be replaced until their purpose is served. him, crying: "Patrick is stuck in the bog up to his ankles." "Don't worry, then," was the reply, "if he's only up to his ankles he can soon get out again!" "Yes, but he went in head first!" retorted the other—Pearson's Weekly. Uncle Pen Hatches Something. "Pa, I heard Uncle Henry say that he had hatched out a scheme. How could he do that?" "He probably had his mind set on it." ON THE FUNNY SIDE ONE LUXURY NOT PROVIDED Secretary to Postmaster General Amazed When Typical Country Rube Borrows Toothbrush. Col. Edward B. Smith, for 20 years a Washington newspaper man, now serving the postmaster general in a secretarial capacity, has had his full share of amusing adventures. This story is told by Mr. Smith of an incident which happened to him while en route from Washington to Baltimore. At one of the little way- side stations a typical country "rube" boarded the train and immediately went to the wash room at the end of the car, where Colonel Smith was "dolling up," preparatory to his arrival in Baltimore. His toothbrush was lying conveniently on the wash basin, and the Marylander, after removing a goodly portion of Kentucky leaf from his mouth, unhesitatingly proceeded to make use of it. "Here! What are you doing with my toothbrush?" exclaimed Smith. "Susce me, jedge, I didn't know that was yours. Where's the 'regular' one?" inquired the innocent countryman. Whereupon Smith enlightened the old farmer to the effect that the railroad has not yet, in its magnanimity, seen fit, for sanitary reasons or otherwise, to provide such luxuries for its natrons. Hibernlan Wlt. An Irish farmer was asked if he used any of the commercial fertilizers on his land. "No, sorr," he replied. "To my notion there's nothing like the old barn-yard kind." "Nonsense, man," said the other; "the time is coming when a man can carry the fertilizer for an acre of land in one of his walscott pocket." "Maybe it will, sorr," returned Pat. "An' he'll be able to carry the crop in the other pocket, I'm thinkin'." Escaped From Irish Pastures.

"Faith, thin, he died of a Tuesday." "And how long has he been dead?" "Shure, yer honor, if he'd lived tomorrow he'd have been dade a fortnight."—London Evening Standard.
