THIRTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 48. IN ORIGIN MEMORIAM FALL OF LEMBERG PLEASE STEUTONS Cases Rejoicing Everywhere Throughout Austria-Hungary and Germany. ALLIED ARMIES ARE PURSUING RUSSIANS English Cruiser Is Struck by Torpedo In the North Sea, Vessel Suffering No Serious Damage and No Casualties on Board. Herland's cruiser following reigns everywhere throughout. Austria-Hungary and Germany following the announcement that the victorious Teuton armies had taken Lemberg, capital of Gallica, by storm, after fighting their way across Gallica. Gen. August von Mackensen, who stands as the greatest popular hero of the day in the central empires, has been promoted to field marshal by the kaiser for winning the victory. Archduke Frederick of Austria has also been made a field marshal in the Prussian army for his services. Latest reports indicated that the allied armies are making good their victory by organizing their holdings and pursuing the defeated Russians. Russ Defenses Broken. A belated official statement issued at Vienna under date of Tuesday describes the fighting immediately preceding the fall of Lemberg. "The Russian defensive positions to the south of the town have been completely broken by our troops," says the statement. "Some fortifications on the western and northwestern front of Lemberg came into our possession after violent fighting, in which the Vienna Landwehr particularly distinguished themselves. "German troops stormed the positions west of Kittlkow and north of Lemberg, repulsing all the Russian counter attacks." Both Berlin and Vienna are flag-bedecked. Emperor William of Germany and Emperor Francis Joseph of Austria-Hungary have exchanged long telegraphs of felicitation. The sultan of Turkey telegraphed at length both to Berlin and Vienna. The school children of Germany and Austria will be given a holiday. Throngs crowd the public squares and the parks, flags are being displayed from windows and bands are playing patriotic airs. Extra editions of the newspapers are being shouted on the streets and the church bells are riling. Everybody feels that another great step in the direction of final victory has been gained. Artillery, Sacrificed. A special correspondent of the Cologne Gaazelle telegraphs that the Russians, before the general retreat began, hurriedly sent back all the artillery they could move. This was done instead of endeavoring to cover the retreat of the artillery and saving all of it. "It was after the artillery had been sent to the rear that the panic-striken troops began their flight," says the dispatch. "Wagons and supply trains blocked the roads. Men detached the horses from these vehicles and rode away on them, headless of the crowd of soldiers of all arms crowding back to the rear. Generals and colonels were helpless carried away. Units were disbanded and the army became a mere mob." A report given out Wednesday sets forth that since June 12, 80,000 Russian soldiers and nine Russian guns have been captured by the Second army. Theina newspapers express the opinion that this Austro-German victory signifies not only the end of Russian domination of Galicia, but also the complete breakdown of the Russian army. Minor French Victory. A minor French victory on the heights of the Meuse and a defeat in the Vosges are reported in the official statement from Paris. German attacks in the Arras district and in Lorraine were repulsed. The French advance in Alsace was continued, leading to the occupation of the village of Sondernach, on the river Fecht. The Italian general staff announces the arrival of important reinforcements for the Austrians along the Isonzo front, north of the Gulf of Triest. In the Monte Nero district these forces, believed by the Italians to have been brought in from the Galician front, were encountered for the first time in a battle in which, the announcement says, they were repulsed by Alpine troops. British Cruiser Hit by Torpedo. London; England—The admiralty, through the official press bureau, announced Wednesday night that H. M. S. Boxburgh was struck by a torpedo last Sunday in the North sea. The damage to the ship was not serious, it was added, there being no casualties on board and the Boxburgh was able to proceed under her own steam. The Roxburgh is a cruiser of 10,850 tong displacement. 11.10 Georgians Order Jews to Leave. Atlanta, Ga.-Resentment, against Governor-Staton for commuting the death sentence of Leo M. Frank to life imprisonment took the form of a campaign to drive all Jews from the town of Marletta, the birthplace and burial place of Mary, Phagan. feeling here became known that a committee of the Jew appealed to Governor-Horace Dorsay, who prosecured Frank, to find means of protecting their brethren from violence. Letters already have been sent to Jews at Maryland ordering them to leave. THE GAZETTE ARTHUR J. BALFOUR INTERNATIONAL NEW YORKER Latest portrait of Hon. Arthur J.

Atlanta, Ga., Leo M. Frank, whose death sentence for the murder of Mary Phagan was commuted to life imprisonment early Monday by Gov. Slaton, began serving his term at the state prison farm in Milledgeville a few hours later. He will be known as "Convict No. 965." Officials secretly took Frank by train and automobile from the Atlanta jail to Milledgeville and soon afterward Gov. Slaton issued a long statement giving his reasons for commuting the sentence. Frank was delivered at the state prison at 4:30 o'clock Monday morning. When it became known in Atlanta crowds, began to gather on downtown street corners. Within three hours their demonstrations had resulted in calling out two-thirds of the police force. Mounted officers rode in circles in the crowd and the demonstrators gradually dispersed. At Martetta, 24 miles away, the former home of Mary Phagan, Gov. Slaton was hanged in effigy. An inscription on the dummy read: "John Slaton, Georgia's traitor governor." The governor went fully into details of why he commuted the sentence in his 15,000 word statement. He said his decision "may mean that I must live in obscurity the rest of my days, but I would rather be plowing in a field than to feel for the rest of my life that I had that man's blood on my hands." Frank did not know until a few minutes before he started on the ride to Milledgeville that he was to leave his cell Sunday night. His heavy, distinctive eyeglasses were removed, he wore a slouch hat and the few persons at the railway station did not recognize the famous prisoner. Lansing Gets High Post. Washington, D. C. - Robert Lansing has been appointed secretary of state to succeed William J. Bryan. The president made the decision to give Mr. Lansing a regular recess commission. His status as secretary ad interim would have necessitated a new appointment on July 8 or before. The president has anticipated the date a couple of weeks. It is a recess appointment. His name will have to go to the senate when the new congress convenes, but his confirmation probably will follow as a matter of course. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. Western Man Delivers Swiping Opinion on Question of Great Human Interest—Quotes From Eminent Authorities and Concludes That We Will Be Absorbed by the Caucasians. By P. L. CARMOUCHE. Detroit, Mich.—With all statistics at Bruce "Grit's" command to show how many blacks, part blocks, nudufloats, quadroons, octoroons and those beyond the coins in the United States and all ancient and modern ethnology and all dictionary definitions combine to show what color or any other part of man was necessary to create an Ethiopian, then an African, then a "Negro" and some more such names, they do not and cannot truthfully and scientifically apply to us today as Bruce "Grit" would have it apply. Notwithstanding the words of Saul of Tarsus that God "huth made of one blood all nations of men," somebody tries to change all of that when it comes to our race. Yes, Brother Bruce "dirt," because it is not a long, long way to the final end or outcome—caused by the presence of the Ethiopian or "African" or "Negro" as slaves in the United States—as to who will be brown or white, but that time will come, and it is coming faster than we are willing to admit. There fore, it is not more proper for those who recognize and accept this ancient ethnological defamation of the laws or word of God and dictionary definitions of the word "Negro" applied to us to defend its propriety or improperly with no malice, disrespect and contempt toward those who differ with them? I think so. If Mr. Bruce would have given this subject his most careful consideration—and I know by my careful considerations of his writings that he is a deep thinker and a great writer—he surely would have been more charitable to those opportunities whose ancestors became the vettings of the least of the "white slave masters" in the United States. I am fifty-four years of age, and as long as I can remember, knowing the full meaning of it, I have from race pride looked upon it with a sorrow for the blacks, all because of the transguration of the African, part of him, his color, which I never considered a disgrace. Thus it was from that very day when the first African woman and man, too, landed, on American soil. The white man by mistake did not intend him to forever remain a Negro in the United States. There and then his history and all which pertained to him as a race in Africa would be a dead history to him in America. It is so no matter how we twist it. I do not profess to be an ethnologist nor a scientist, but I have sufficient reasoning facilities to lead me to believe that my way of reaching objection to the term Negro is proper. To the Washington Bee, Dec. 20, 1913, and the Seattle Searchlight, Dec. 27, 1913, I contributed to those papers "The Curse of Slavery in the United States," in which I repudiated the word "Negro" with no prejudice nor malicious intent to the black man nor disrespect and contempt to the part blacks, mulattoes, octoroons and quadroons. Necessity is well known to the white man." He knows that it knows no law, and when that time comes ancient dictionary definitions on that cognomen "Negro" will disappear in the United States. It will be another destruction, a modern destruction of facts pertaining to the Ethiopian age. Amesley Burrows' article in the Detroit Journal of Jan. 23. "Can't Stop Relations of Whites and Blacks by Law," was a "stunner" in perfect accord with conditions as they now exist. When Bruce "Grit" uses the word "never" on the term "Negro" is abolished he is in error, and time is proving it. possibly to the dissatisfaction of Mr. "Grit" and other colored men who accept the term as final. This is proving, too, that this new model is still in process of construction and reconstruction. As black, with 72 distaste of it, as it used to be, this modern refinement of an American nation of its own liking in the United States has partly made of the old casting—the former African share—a most wonderful specimen, through breeding and cross breeding, of the human family. It made such mep as Fred Douglas, P. B. S. Pinehack, John M. Lungston, Ira Aldridge, T. Thomas Fortune, T. T. Alah, B. K. Bruce, Dr. L. Rushuez, R. L. Desdunes and E. M. Coey. It made the Hon. Crispus' Attacks of Revolutionary fame, and it partly made Booker T. Washington, because he is not black. How could I begin to name the wonderful specimens of men it made and those that are here now by the thousands? As to the woman's share of it we can well place her in the front ranks with the best of men of this modern refinement of nations in the United States. If Mr. John E. Bruce (Bruce "Grit" would have, and possibly he has, an opportunity to travel around this country and see the thousands—year, the hundreds of thousands—of "our peo- ple" whose color is not black—it is at this very point of this controversy where I differ with the correctness of statistics on the number of real blacks, those who are of ginger cake color, light ginger cake color or the likes of it, and they are all "contaminated," the white census takes penniless them in as black—he would wonder as to what will be the outcome of it all. Considering it in that light, Bruce "Girl" is a error with his figures, taken from such an incorrect enumeration, as to the number of real blacks in the United States. Now, New York city would be a good place to test this question. While Detroit is small in comparison, yet it furnishes a full example as to who is black, any place for that matter is suitable. Mr. Bruce is in a good place or section. Let him make a careful observation and see what he will find. If you do not conclude that the "black" brother is disappearing, notwithstanding the south furnishes them by thousands, well, then, I am sadly mistaken. Justn't it a fact, and should I say that in certain sections of the entire south is where you can find the largest percentage of this process of recasting this new specimen who is not an African or "Negro" nor a Caucasian or white man? This is a question of the human and not of the animal, and terms applied to animals I do not propose to use, mired or not. They are all counts. From this mture which has taken place and is taking place between the whites and blacks and part black; mulattoes, quadroons and ochrones among themselves and the whites too rest assured that a more appropriate name than "Ne ro" must and will be found to define this breed of the human family. The real black is to be admired. But I do not know the color of Mr. John B. Bruce "Grit". Possibly he is not included in this. The real blacks, as I started to say, must be admired for holding on to their end of it which defines a Negro, because the longer they remain black the longer it will retard the process—that might be of some satisfaction of our complete absorption in the United States. The most unaltered ethnology of these cemeteries is a plum, visible fact which is transpiring in our very sight, and all who do not see it should open their eyes. They are asleep. Wake up! Did Bruce "Gelt" give that phase of the question the consideration? If not his reasoning faculties are of the best, let him try them on the lines I have indicated—he will find that the test is correct. If there was such a thing in nature as paying a penalty for friendship or associating with other colors but our own the disparity of such would be unnatural. In fact, if it wasn't natural there would not be any results at all. But it isn't so. The only penalty which is being paid by both races is the loss of their original color. Since it is true that that will be the only way to solve this most aggravating "race problem," the sooner-for the peace and contentment of both races—the better. Neither will lose anything, according to the laws of nature, in the transaction. All are equals-black, brown or white makes no particle of difference. Preljudice is an awful thing. It creates wonders, so much so, in order to belittle all other persons or people but themselves, the "white Christians" made the Hebrew a "Jew" and a "Sheezy." Judas crucified the Hebrew race when "the betrayal" the Hebrew became a "Jew" and a persecuted people. As for the Ethiopian or "African," the "white Christians," ethnology does not say as to who the Ethiopian betrayed in order that they be crucified even unto this day, as awfully mixed persons as they are in the United States. In some way the "white Christians" found a way to do so, and as profound a thinker as Mr. John E. Bruce he accepts without a murmur that which was handed down to him from an ancient prejudice source as final. Not for me. It is just as improper for a Hebrew to be a "Jew" as it is for us to be termed a "Negro" in the United States. It was a decision of courts which tried to make of an African slave a real human—a beast in the United States. This race of human beings who are becoming neither white nor black here is not becoming so by orders and decisions of courts. There is something greater at work on this human result than all the decision of courts in this country. It is the decision of the laws of nature. I am surprised at Bruce "Girk." In the real law of human nature there is no such thing as hybrids and off-shoots. Those terms belong to the animal and not to the human family. If to the contrary, those terms, too, derived from prejudice and the disposition of the white man to belittle all who were and are not white, even in his paintings of images and the likes of such things, the white man tried to show that it was he, and he alone, that God created. Now, Brother "Grit," you should be a little careful, yes, more careful. The person, created by whatever alliance, neither is the greater nor the lesser. They are equals, all dictionary definitions to the contrary notwithstanding. Let us insist on the name American Mestizoids or American Amerizoids. Why should our mixture of blood be any less than any other? "From one blood God made all men." Retail Dealers Form an Association.

ADVANCE MADE IN RELIGIOUS WORK DR. G. O. BULLOCK AS LEADER Minister and Congregation of the First Baptist Church Will Rid Property of Debt and Make Desirable Improvements to Accommodate the Rapidly Increasing Membership. Winston-Salem, N. C. - The Rev. George O. Bulbok, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist church in this city, is doing a splendid work among the members of his parish. He is also thoroughly interested in the welfare of the people of the community in general and is always ready to aid in any movement for the advancement of our people. By his earnest and straightforward method of dealing with public affairs and the business of the First Baptist church he has won many friends. He is a native of Williamsboro, N. C. His parents were slaves, who following the case of the civil war, started out for themselves as farmers in a small way, but soon became self-supporting and influential in the rural district in which they lived. They were Christians, having joined what was then known as the Flat Creek Baptist church. Through the influence of his parents young Bulbok became a Christian at an early age and joined the Flat Creek Baptist church. The Rev. Mr. Bulbok received his early education in the public school in Clifford county, N. C. near Clifford college. On account of having to assist in supporting the family at the age of REV. G. O. BULLOCK, D. D. ten years, he could not attend school regularly, but there was lurking in every fiber of his being a desire for knowledge, and he never allowed an opportunity to go by unused. He received much information through reading and conversation. He delighted to hear great preachers. Rally days and nights were turned into account by him in the way of study and reading. In this way he made wonderful progress, and at twenty he was licensed to teach in the district school. His first school was in Guilford county, N. C. Three years were spent in this work, and each year he saved his money, getting ready to enter college, and when he had got enough together he entered Shaw university, Raleigh, N. C., in the spring of 1852, and was a student there until 1901. During the vacation of 1895 he was called to a mission church under the direction of the Mild Street Baptist church, a congregation of white persons at Portsmouth, N. H., where he supplied the pulpit for four months during his vacation. During his student days he got experience by pastoring three churches and had the love and esteem of the members of these churches as well as the other people of the community. In every thing that had for its object the moral and religious training of the people he was found the best man, and he was selected by the students of Shaw, university to represent them in the student volunteer movement convention of the Y. M. C. A. held in Cleveland, O. He graduated from the theological department at Shaw in 1900 with the degree of bachelor of theology and in 1901 with the degree of bachelor of arts. Following his graduation he took up active ministerial work by accepting a call to the work as missionary for western North Carolina, under the plan of co-operation directed by the Home Mission society. He held this position for several years and resigned it to accept a call from the Friendship Baptist church in Charlotte, N. C. and from there to the First Baptist church in this city. As a revivalist Dr. Bullock stands second to none. He has conducted a number of successful revivals in South Carolina as well as in his own state, and many persons have been added to the churches under his preaching and influence. An effort is being made by the members to pay off all the indebtedness on the First Baptist church, and then make several improvements on the property to accommodate the rapidly increasing membership.

OTHERS TESTIFY IN PRISONER'S BEHALF Swear Before the Twelve Men Who Will Pass Upon Slayer's Sanity to a Belief in Hia Absolute Rationality. New York City...Brilliant legal maneuvering, with honors even at the close of a day's skirmishing, marked the formal opening before Justice Hendrick and a jury in the supreme court of the fight for Harry K. Thaw's freedom. Thaw was called suddenly to the witness stand as his own first witness by Stanchfield, his chief counsel, after a powerful opening address. Taken completely by surprise, Deputy Attorney General Frank Cook, in charge for the state, sharply interposed with the penal demand that he be permitted to be open at court. Conceded the right to open at court. Cook launched into a vitriolic denunciation of Thaw, in which he recited all of the officiated charges against the defendant, winding up with an impassioned defense of the late Stanford White. Concededly, Cook's purpose was to arouse the temper and shake the nerve of Thaw, whom he knew was to follow as a witness. State Is Taken by Surprise. Thaw scored first blood for himself by advancing to the witness stand with the utmost composure. For 20 minutes he bore himself to the highest advantage, and then Stanchfield once more took the state by surprise, ending his examination abruptly after having examined his client only as to matters subsequent to the escape from Mattanwan. For a moment Cook was happily pleased. Stanchfield's strategy was plain—to have the examination of Thaw over with in the early stages of the trial so that in the event of any sips on the part of his client they would be observed by the mass of testimony which is to fall. Cook quickly, rallied, and—in the hush with which the sharp play of legal wits was being followed, announced that he would defer cross-amination of Thaw until later in the trial. Meanwhile, he declared, he would probably ask that Thaw.submit himself to a mental examination. Cross-Examine Thaw Later. Cross-Examine Thaw Later. Cook announced that toward the end of the trial, probably as his last witness, he will put Thaw on the stand, making him a witness for the state. Thus Thaw will be compelled to recite the complete story of his life and go over all the intimate details of the shooting of Stanford White, with the motives which impelled him to the conviction, including in his prosecution anamination of witnesses that, baving an adverse ruling from the court, he proposes to delve into all the sensational details of the Thaw-White tragedy. Thaw is ready. He imparted to counsel that he is absolutely sure of himself and does not fear the test of life which is being prepared for him. For the rest, 12 lay witnesses, drawn from all the varied walks of life, swore before the 12 men who will pass upon Thaw's sanity, to a belief in his absolute rationality. Wilson Goes to Summer Home Wilson Goes to Summer Home. Washington, D. C.-President Wilson at midnight started for Cornish, N. H., where he will spend the next two weeks at the summer White House. Before leaving the president announced that Robert Lansing, the present counsel of the state department, had accepted the post of secretary of state. War Hits U. S. Receipts Washington, D. C.—Customs officials in this city have just declared that the revenues from customs for the fiscal year, which ends June 2nd, amount to more than $294,000,000 and that there is a prospect that the total for the year will be close to $212,000,000. This would be $300,000,000 below the estimates made by Secretary McAdoo last fall and tess by more than $80,000,000 than the receipts last year before the European war interfered with imports. THE DEFENSE INCREASED SPOUSE OF ILLINOIS PEN WARDEN SLAIN Weman's Body Found in Bedroom On Third Floor of Administration Building. COVERED WITH ALCOHOL AND IGNITED Crime Is Committed Within Remark- lily Short Space of Time—Negro Trusty Held as Suspect, but He Declares His Innocence. Joliet, Ill.—Mrs. Edmund M. Allen, wife of the warden, was murdered on the bedroom on the third floor of the administration building of the state penitentiary in the morning. It is believed that an attempt was made to attack Mrs. Allen before she was struck down. Then, when she was either dead or unconscious, her body was placed on the bed, a quantity of wood alcohol poured over it and the bed clothing ignited. The crime was accomplished within a remarkably short space of time, as the electric buzzer by which Mrs. Allen made her calls for the convict who acted as 'house servant in the warden's private quarters had sounded but a few minutes before two other convicts, who had not been able to find the houseman, made their way to the third floor of the building to answer the call and found smoke emptying into the hall and the room afame. Victim Presses Call Button. Mrs. Allen was a young and very handsome woman in robust health, but evidently was cowed into a state bordering upon helplessness when she defined the purpose of the convict who entered her bedroom. Her first impulse was to press the button at the side of her bed and summon a "trusty" to her aid. The buzzer sounded sharp in succession and then was quiet. It is possible that hand at the button when she was attacked. The murder of Mrs. Allen is a crime without parallel in this state and has elements of mystery of a new and baffling nature to criminologists. The man who slew Mrs. Allen, who was the only woman in that part of the prison structure known as the "men's quarters," was an inmate of the institution and is now within its walls. The question is how to find, him out among so many capable of committing such an atrocious crime. There are approximately 1,750 prisoners confined in the penitentiary, many of them murderers and degenerates. There are a hundred or more guards and keepers who might have seen within the confines of the prison at the time Mrs. Allen was slain. The time that the buzzer sounded noisily the call of Mrs. Allen is set by the convicts who heard it as shortly after 6 o'clock. At that hour 1,500 of the prisoners were locked in cells, so they are eliminated as suspects. Negro-Trusty is Suspected. There are 200 trusties in the prison who have the freedom of the buildings and the grounds within the outer walls of the penitentiary and about 50 of these prisoners freedom of the city and the right to pass in and out of the gates at their pleasure. But one out of these 200 men had the right to enter the private quarters of Warden Allen and his wife. He is Joe Campbell, a negro; who killed one of his own race and is serving an indeterminate sentence for manslaughter. Warden Allen, who had been attracted by what he believed to be good qualities in Campbell, and following his humitarian policy to all prisoners, had made Campbell his home servant and established him in the administration that he might be within call. For this purpose the buzzer was installed and when it sounded Campbell was supposed to answer at once. The negro was made a trusty, with the freedom of the prison and the city, Campbell is now in solitary confinement in the penitentiary as a suspect, but he declares he can easily establish his innocence and an alibis as he was outside the prison enclosure when the fire was discovered. REVEALS BIG OLEO FRAUD SECRETARY MAKES KNOWN FINDINGS OF COMMISSIONER WHO CONDUCTED PROBE. Washington, D. C.—How violators of the oleomargarine law have defrauded the federal government out of at least $27,000,000 due in stamp and special taxes was revealed by Secretary McAdoo in a statement based on a preliminary report on a sweeping investigation conducted by Commissioner Osborn of the internal revenue bureau. Frauds committed as long ago as 1992, immediately after the enactment of the law, have been uncovered by the commissioner. Unpaid taxes aggregating $51,000 have been recovered. Forty-two violators of the law have been convicted. Eight Brown In Surf Atlantic City, N.

Cleveland Oklahoma City While playing second fiddle Bryan made discord. A harp is suggested. President Wilson paid his political debt to Col. Bryan, and it has cost him dear. Wilson's stand on the tariff won him popularity in Europe alone; Bryan's stand against war brings the same reward. Mr. Medill McCormick, who furlished much of the cost, and most of the generalship which carried the states of the Central West for Roosevelt in 1912, says in an interview that industrial depression proved to be the last straw in breaking down the Progressive party. It is difficult to decide which has made the worst showing, as a result of the successful Leo M. Frank appeal for commutation of sentence to life imprisonment, the governor or the riotous people of Georgia. --- The Gazette was correct, last week when it made the statement that Gov Frank Willis should not be held responsible for the appointment of Tom Fleming. It was not a personal one but a mistake of an appointee of the governor. During the recent campaign Secretary Bryan toured the country making heart-gripping appeals to the people to "stand by the President," but he, himself, has suddenly repudiated the president's leadership and denounced his attitude in the most serious situation this nation has faced since the civil war. --- Our people of Ohio must be on the lookout, constantly. The recent Springfield, Steubenville and Youngtown efforts to advertise and show the miserable photo-play, "The Niger," in defiance of the orders of the State Board of Film Censors (on the suggestion of Gov. Frank B. Willis), but emphasizes this fact. Whenever the play is advertised in your community, write the governor and notify the board, promptly, at 522 S. High St., Columbus, O., and it will take care of the matter promptly, as it has in the case of Springfield, and other Ohio cities. WILLIS AND THE VETO POWER The message of Governor Willis which accompanied each veto furnishes an explanation which is satisfactory to the public because of its clarity and reasonableness. His education, training and experience peculiarly fit him for judging not only whether a law is clear in its wording but whether in application it will work injury or benefit to society. He has been eight years a lawmaker in legislature or congress and his work as professor of law and economics required wide knowledge of statutory laws and of the laws which govern the acquiring, preservation and distribution of wealth. When in doubt about the lucidity or the effect of a paragraph of a bill he asked the opinion of our very able attorney general. A law whose meaning is obscure through equivocal or indefinite statement gives rise to legislation without end, which is expensive to all parties concerned. Killing pet measures of the influ ential, he showed courage in the protection of the people at large. AT LAST. The first favorable decision, vitally affecting our citizen-rights we have been able to get from the U. S. Supreme court, came on Monday. "Sus a clap of thunder from a clear sky," except that it was so pleasing and encouraging. As many of our readers will remember, a majority of this court are southern democrats and ex-confederates. In a decision so broad as to probably annual all disfranchisement laws of southern states, based on what is known as the "Granfather clause," the court held invalid Oklahoma's and Maryland's disfranchisement laws. Another remarkable thing in connection with this action of the court is that it was unanimous. The decision was that it is in violation of the fifteenth amendment for a state to seize arbitrarily a date, such as 1866, and provide that persons not qualified to vote on that date, or whose ancestors were not so qualified, are barred from voting or must submit to voting tests not required of others. This, in a few words, is the "Grandfather clause," which Oklahoma and Maryland used as a basis for their laws "knocked out" by Monday's U. S. Supreme court decision. About one-half of the states of that section of the country, have similar laws on their statutes, the other half basing its disfranchisement laws upon an educational test, which, for purposes obvious, are unfairly administered. While this latter is a notorious fact, to date it has been impossible to prove it to the satisfaction of the U. S. Supreme Court. Whenever we are able to do this, and Monday's decision is the greatest encouragement we could possibly have to continue trying, there will be an end to the disfranchisement of nearly one million Afro-American voters in the southland. NO OHIO EXHIBIT It looks as if an attempt to have an Ohio Afro-American exhibit at the Illinois Half-Century exposition, at Chicago, in August and September, is to be killed early. The recent Commission of five, appointed by Gov. Frank B. Willis—three, members of the race, Misses Hallel Q. Brown of Wilberforce, Dora E. Johnson of Norwalk, and Mr. Wm. A. Anderson of Wilberforce; and two, old soldier-friends of the race, Gen. Warren Kleifer of Springfield, and Gen. R. B. Brown of Zanesville—appeared before the State Board of Control at Columbus, Monday, and asked that the $5,000 provided by the Ohio Assembly, recently adjourned, be made available at once This, too, should have been provided for by the Assembly. The Board of Control was willing to do this, when along came the attorney general of the state, the Hon. Edwin C. Turner who decided otherwise and was "ob durate," to use an expression of a member of the commission. Gov. Frank B. Willis was then appealed to and (to quote the same member of the Commission): "He is a jewel—in deep sympathy with the movement. He called Atty Gen. Turner to his office but he (Turner) still insisted that he would allow no money for any purpose until 90 days (provided in law) expired from the time the law (appropriating the $5,000) was filed in the Secretrary of State's office which will be Sept. 5, as it was filed June 12." This will give the Commission but ten days before the CLOSE of the Half-Century exposition in which to make a showing (collect and place an exhibit) for Ohio, and of course this would be simply impossible. No same person would expect it, either. State Auditor Donahay (dem.) was in sympathy with the governor, board and commission—"all, save Turner who seemed to exult in his power." So Ohio Afro-Americans will have no exhibit at "The Lincoln Jubilee and Exposition" to be held in Chicago, from Aug. 22 to Sept. 16, 1915, because of an oversight of the Assembly and the unwillingness of Attorney-General E. C. Turner to allow Ohio's governor, board of control and auditor to assume the responsibility for the paying out of the $5,000 before Sept. 6, 1915. BRYAN'S INTENTIONS Salient facts in Bryan's history give rise to a surmise that he may have mistaken ambition for conscience when determining to resign the foreign portfolio, in order that he might be free to attack the Democratic administration. For nearly twenty years Wm. J. Bryan has devoted his splendid abilities exclusively to effort to secure the presidency. After going twice to defeat behind the "peerless leader" the Democracy determined to select a gold Democrat and Parker was nominated, but Bryan amid a scene as dramatic as any in the Baltic more convention, forced under the candidate a silver platform which defeated Parker, although he repudiated the silver plank by wire to New York that night. Mr. Bryan controlled the next national convention, was nominated and again defeated. In the last convention, at Baltimore, a majority of the delegates were primary-elected and instructed for Champ Clark but Mr. Bryan, who was elected as a Clark delegate, broke his instructions, violating the trust of his constituents, and through his great power to sway crowds made Wilson the nominee. He was able to hold up the report of the resolutions committee until after the candidate was named and then to force into the platform a plank which pledged Wilson not to become a candidate for a second term. Prompted by gratitude, or fear, the president gave Mr. Bryan the most important portfolio in his cabinet. Finding that Bryan was constitutionally unable to grasp the affairs of the state administration and unwilling to give the office the time required for its management, the time required became his own minister and made Bryan the dispenser of patronage, relieving himself of an onerous duty and putting that work upon a man who liked it and who knows the vote-getting value of more politicians than any other American ever did. Members of the cabinet other than Bryan have devoted their time and influence largely to the promotion of a second nomination for Wilson and the president himself in a letter published recently admitted his candidacy for a second term—in spite of the platform promise. This would postone the realization of Bryan's presidential ambition for nearly six years, had he remained in Wilson's official family. Therefore, his only hope for political advancement before old age overtakes him, is to start a campaign against Wilson for the nomination. He can stand upon the one term plank of his party. He will have the good feeling of the thousands of active Democrats whom he has placed in the offices under this administration. Recently he became the leader of the national Prohibitionists and long has favored woman's suffrage, although the president, who is at least the titular head of the party, frowns on both. Many naturalized Germans will support him against Wilson but his largest following will be from the cowards who will flock to his white flag to bear aloft his dove of peace. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O. SATURDAY, JUNE 26, 1915 NEW SEGREGATION EFFORTS. As many of our local readers know, The Gazette has never been able to "warm up" to that Phyllis Wheatley home. The reason is now apparent to all. A few weeks ago, a meeting was held at the home which was attended by several persons interested and a young lady of the race, whom we understand is employed to promote "jim-crow" Y. W. C. A. throughout the country. At this meeting, doubtless because the home has proved a practical failure to date, it was decided to "quietly circulate petitions" for the purpose of securing 2,000 Afro-American signature-endorsements of this segregation project, the young lady telling them, that if this were done, financial assistance could be secured from the Y. W. C. A. of this city. Of course it would promote a "jim-crow" Y. W. C. A. for this city, just as certain of its members encouraged, helped to organize, officer and keep alive the Phyllis Wheatley home. The home was originally intended to be but an opening wedge for a "jim-crow" Y. W. C. A., which the circulation of the petitions referred to, it is hoped, will build a foundation for. Do not be misled in to sign any of the petitions. A few weeks ago, a meeting was held at the residence of one of our local physicians for the purpose of promoting the "establishing of a hospital in this city, which was to be under the management and control of our people." This, notwithstanding the fact that Cleveland has many fine hospitals open to all classes of people whose physicians are subject to the same rules and regulations as regards patients, etc. This is so clearly another segregation effort, that the Cleveland Association of Colored Men, at its meeting, Monday evening promptly turned down the proposal when it was submitted for endorsement by one of its members, a physician. What in the world is the matter with some of our people in this community? While our leaders are busiest fighting down segregation promoted by prejudiced whites, some of our misguided people are equally busy, it seems, trying to inaugurate and promote one "jim-crow" institution after another. Personal interest or desires, as far as they are concerned, seem to over-ride principles to such an extent that they lose sight entirely of the harm their segregation projects would do the race in this community if they were permitted to carry them on. That our people do not properly support their churches, Old Folk's home and lodges because they are financially unable to do so, after properly caring for them selves and their families, apparently means absolutely nothing to these separate-institution-promoters. Furthermore, there is nothing that our people of this community could do that would close the doors of our hospitals to them quicker than to promote a "jim-crow" hospital. It is passing strange that for several years past, it has been necessary for The Gazette to sound a note of warning along this line, every few months, and if the intelligent members of the race in this community do not wake up and take heed and act promptly, it will not be long until the segregation "jim-crow" Negroes in our midst will have conditions in Cleveland, as far as our people are concerned, rivaling those in localities they left when they came to Cleveland largely because of the sad color-line conditions existing there. DOINGS OF THE RACE Major R. R. Jackson's photo-play bill was not passed by the Illinois state senate. Recently Mr. and Mrs. Julius Rosenwald of Chicago, in celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage, distributed $5,000 among the teachers of the Tuskegee Normal and Agricultural College of faithfulness, length of service, etc., with fifteen years of service as the limit. John W. E. Bowen, Jr., of Georgia, has been awarded a fellowship of the American University, being one of the five who were granted this honor by the Board of Awards during the commencement week of the University. The fellowship pays $400 annually and Mr. Bowen will continue his study of American history at Harvard University. William A. Pledger, son of the late Col. W. A. Pledger of Georgia, has enlisted in the English army and is fighting with the allies in France. He served in the U. S. army in Cuba and the Philippines, Mr. Pledger enlisted in Cardiff, U.K. It is said that Arthur Aro-American is in his company and more are going. To sin by silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The feeble will speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many.—Ella Wheeler Wil- THANKS ALL 711 Parkwood Drive, Cleveland, O. June 22, 1915.

Akron, Ohio, May 27, 1915. Editor, Gazette, My Dear Sir: It is rather late, but nevertheless, I certainly want to congratulate you on the firm and positive stand you took, and the manner in which you handled that race photo-question in this State. It was surely wonderful, and the result, for the team, would be to be most highly commended, and the race should feel proud that they have such a strong man to stand up and fight for their rights. It is a pity that we do not have more such progressive men among us, who not only have ideas as to our rights, but who are not afraid to make them known, and fight for them as well, and my very best wishes that success he ever yours.

Chicago, Ill., June 14, 1915. Editor, Gazette, Dear Sir:—The Chicago Examiner has a cartoon in its issue of June 14th, "Flag Day," which portrays an American (U. S. flag, the stars of which—one for each state—being depicted as faces designated by the "various" kind of Americanism, as it composes our nation. The bars represent (on top) "Humanity;" in the middle "Freedom;" in the owees bar, in the portraits of Washington, Jefferson, Monroe, Jackson, Lincoln and Grant; on one, (riven) chain, the middle of which is labeled "Enunciation Proclamation." Characteristically, the first face is labeled "Trish-American;" Anglo-American is third, German-American, seventh, Rather low down (third last) is Jewish-American. But all the faces are white, even those left blank (i.e. without nationalistic designation!) No Afro-American appearance! No Afro-American fortunately not confined in its hearness and meanness to their hearness and his "kidney." The riven chains may stand in weak-minded persons' opinions for the Negro (the Afro-American), but they would only at best designate the abolition of slavery bondage—no more. True freedom's rights are not even indicated thus; not even citizenship in its general acceptance, leaving the social part the most important. In pieces in our nation out of question, and of course, more particularly the political rights our country's constitution guarantees in terms that cannot be dismuted. If Hearst and the whole "kidney" of race-bioted "Americans," were capable of the sense of shame, I with thousands of other right-minded real Americans would invoke it on them. But they are not right-minded, for justice until he wins it, which he will, if he fights bravely to the last. In the mean-time every respective colored man and white friend of justice should shun such papers and their allies, no matter in what party they share.

GET RICH BY OTHERS'-LABOR That Carnegie's Observation Was Correct Is Shown by Estates Left by Professional Men. Dr. S. Weir Mitchell was known nationally, even internationally, as a man of medicine. He was known nationally and over a good part of the world as a writer of fiction. He had been famous many years and lived well beyond eighty and yet his estate inventories at a little under $50,000. No other American since Oliver Wendell Holmes was so eminent as Doctor Mitchell in both science and literature, but these high attainments of his big brain didn't earn as much money for him as hundreds of Americans who have little education earn by business. Dr. Horatio C. Wood once told me that Doctor Mitchell's medical practice was then worth $50,000 a year. He said one other Philadelphia physician was earning as much I am told by doctors who ought to be in a position to form a pretty correct guess that at least one surgeon in the city today makes considerably over $50,000 a year. Carnegie had the correct dope, however, when he said that no man could grow very rich except through the labor of many other men.

We would like to ask those persons of color who love to "boost" Luna Park, in various ways, whether they can use its "ocean-surf bathing-beach" or pool. "Luna's new dance-floor and enlarged roller-rink?" Isn't it a fact that the management of the park daily refuses our people only, of all the local public, the free use of the beach, dance-floor and roller-rink? Isn't it also a fact that our people this community have failed one or more of the Luna Park management for unlawful discrimination on account of race or color? Our Ohio Civil Rights law, expertly forbids just such discrimination in all public places. Use the law and put a stop to such insults, and stop "boosting" them, instead of trying to beat them down.

Our People in Every Ohio Community Should Notify The State Board of Film Censors and Governor F. [The two vicious photo-plays, "The Nigger" and "The Birth of a Nation," were barred from Ohio about two months ago. The latter has never been shown in this state. Gov. F. B. Willis had them barred, on the request of the editor of The Gazette, early in April. Some of our people even here in Ohio, do not seem to have learned this yet. Whenever you learn your community to run the miserable photoplay, the defense of the orders of the State Board and the Governor, notify them promptly as well as your mayor or other proper local executive official or officials.—Editor.1] Mrs. John R. Rudd, Chas. D. Mrs. John W. Forest Speaks, Publicity Committee. "Eternal Vigilance." Steubenville, O, June 10, 1915. Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—There was quite a stir and a quick move when it became known that one of the movie houses was about to display one of the pictures that Gov. Willis had censored on the request of the editor, "The Gazette," and the movie houses here operated by a Greek, had flashed on his screen the notice that the miserable photo-play, "The Nigger", would be shown there June 1st. Some who were present "sounded the alarm" and immediately set about to have it stopped. I. N. McCullough, Rev. G. Walter the Sutton, Attorney on the waited on the Prosecutor Attorney, who immediately notified the proprietor of the movie house that he must not show that picture, or any other that would stir up ill-feeling between the races, under penalty of prosecution to the full extent of the law. The prosecutor is to be commended for the stand he has taken on behalf of the race, the hotel, the restaurants that they hotel and restaurants that they must stop discriminating against us. We must stand by those who prove friends. One fact that speaks well for the race locally, is that they have learned that "eternal vigilance is the price of liberty." The people were a unit in showing their disapproval of the play and B. J. Guyder, Elmer E. Willis and waited on the mayor, to make sure that the play would be made. Our people of Ohio are certainly indebted to the Hon. Harry C. Smith, editor of "The Gazette, for many good things he has done for them in the past thirty-two years. The Mayor Stopped It Promptly. Youngstown, O. June 10, 1915. Editor Gadette, Dear Sir:—Acting under orders from Mayor Hartenstein, Police Captain Jenkins the director of a photographic the Dome theater, last Friday evening after it had been run only a part of one day. The mayor said: "When it was announced that the show, known as 'The Nigger', was to be produced at the Dome I advised the management of the theater not to produce it because of its tendency to arouse prejudice. The mana would obey my request. When several prominent Colored residents called and objected to the picture, I informed them it would not be produced. After I had gone home, Friday night, I found out that the picture called The Mystery of Morrow's Rest, the story of Pear at the Dome, Friday and Saturday reality The Nigger under another name. I immediately instructed Captain Jenkins to stop the show, and he obeyed my orders." More power to Mayor Hartenstein! We won't forget him when the time comes to show full appreciation of his manly act in spite of the Vindicator's senseless criticism. Mrs. A. L.

TAGGART AND OTHER OFFICIALS NAMED Mayor of Indiana's Capital, His Chief of Police and Many City Employees Are Also Hit in Probe Guided by County Prosecutor. Indianapolis, Ind.—Thomas Taggart, Democratic national committeeman for Indiana; Mayor Joseph E. Bell, Chief of Police Samuel V. Perrott and 125 others were indicted by the Marion county grand jury here Tuesday, charged with conspiracy to commit a felony through violation of election laws, bribery and blackmail. Taggart and Bell were the first to acknowledge service in the case and was released on bond, Taggart's being $5,000 and Bell's $10,000. The indictment was returned to Judge James A. Collins about 10:30 a.m. after many weeks of investigation by the grand jury, guided by Alvah J. Rucker, county prosecutor, and his deputies. More than a dozen members of Mayor Bell's official family were indicted and as many more members of the police force were named. The others indicted include election officials, ward and precinct leaders, workers at the polls and voters. 48 Counts in Indictment. The indictment is in 48 counts and covers more than 175 typewritten pages. The number named in it is two more than contained in the indictment returned by the local federal grand jury after its investigation of the Terre Haute election conspiracy. Although 126 men were indicted in the Terre Haute case, only 116 arrests were made. It is said to be the largest number of men ever named in a single bill. The charges are based on the election of Nov. 3, 1914, the registration of last September and October and the primary of May 5, 1914. Democrats, Republicans and Progressives are named in the single indictment. The indictment charges registration and election officials with conspiring to permit persons to register falsely and to vote falsely in the primary and in the election. Another count charges persons with repeating. Other counts allege that certain primary and election boards permitted the destruction of ballots for the purpose of substituting other ballots therefor. Two counts set up a conspiracy to aid and abet primary poll clerks in marking ballots in a manner different from that requested by the voter, while other counts alleged the use of money in influencing the electors, both at the primary and in the general election. In this connection the count charges certain election officials with giving information to outsiders as to how some of the electors voted. Tally Sheets Padded, Charge. The tally sheets for certain candidates is alleged in another section of the indictment, while another count charges policemen were permitted to stand with 50 feet of the polls "for improper purposes," in violation of the state law. Repeaters were imported from outside of the county for use in the election, it is asserted in the indictment. Several counts charge election officials with falling to do their duty in connection with having the voting machines in proper order, with failing to have keys to unlock the machines on the morning of the election, with falling to examine the machines and with tampering with the machines during the day. Among those indicted are: Fred Barrett, city attorney; Herman Adam, city sealer of weights and measures; Dennis Bush, street commissioner; Edward Lyons, Democratic candidate for county treasurer; Dr. John W. Slusso, Republican and former superintendent of the city hospital; Donn M. Roberts, former mayor of Terre Haute, who was convicted in the election fraud trial in federal court here recently; Charles Coval, former secretary; Jacob H. Hilkene, city building inspector; Oscar Merrill, police lieutenant, and Maurice Murphy, police sergeant. Earth Shocks Are Fatal Los Angeles, Cal.-Several persons are reported to have been killed and much damage to property caused by earthquake shocks in the Imperial valley. Reports from El Centro, which appears to have been the worst sufferer, state that a heavy shock shortly after 8 p. m. wrecked the electric lighting and power plants and a second shock at 8:55 badly damaged the Worth hotel, a new brick structure. Fire broke out a few minutes later and several buildings were burned. Ohioan Would Give Up Wife. Lima, O.-Declarating that for the sake of his wife's happiness he would be willing to see her marry the man with whom she eloped and with whom she was arrested in Lima a few weeks ago, Albert S. Pride of Cincinnati, one of the figures in the recent Bessie Pride mystery, wrote to Mayor Miles W. Standish asking that the sentence being served by Charles Cranshaw in the Toledo workhouse be suspended in order that he may return to marry Mrs. Pride after Pride obtains a divorce. Two Firemen Die in Blaze. Philadelphia, Pa.—Two firemen were killed and 14 others were injured fighting a fire which destroyed one of the buildings of Thomas Potter Sons & Co., oillec manufactures, at 2st and 2nd Erie. the dead are William James and John Hillman, Jr. An explosion of benzine wrecked the building and caused one wall to topple over on 16 firemen. Fourteen were rescued by their comrades, but the otter two were buried deep under the debris and were dead when reached. KILLED BY THOUGHT Example of Fact Furnished by Paris Woman. Importance of Controlling Thinking Has Been Shown Time and Again—Derangement of the Nervous System Is Easy. Everybody ought to learn, from early childhood, the importance of controlling their thinking. Thoughts may be, and often are, as deadly as the worst engine of destruction ever invented. Not long ago a Zeppelin went sailing over Paris, dropping bombs as it passed. Fortune was kind to the Parisians, and no one was killed or seriously wounded by the exploding bombs. One woman, however, though untouched, fell dead. She had been killed, not by a bomb, but by a thought—a momentary, devastating thought of fear conjured up in her own mind. There was a train wreck in Illinois. A number of passengers were badly injured, but many escaped without physical harm of any sort. Yet among the latter there were at least a dozen who afterward developed paralysis of arms or legs. These persons, I repeat, had not received the least real bodily harm. The whole trouble with them was that they had thought they must be severely injured, and by thus thinking they had so de-unged their nervous system as to cause the development of paralytic symptoms. Bearing cases like these in mind—and they are occurring every day—it is easy to understand and appreciate the force of this emphatic statement by a leading American physiologist, Professor Dearborn of Tufts college: "The aspects of consciousness are the realest of all real things. For every man crushed by a falling rock or an overturning car, dozens are crushed by mental objects such as volitions and feelings." Again and again it has been conclusively proved that thoughts of fear, anxiety, despair, have caused a fatal outcome in case of accident and illness where recovery would otherwise have been assured. Moreover, the world is, and always has been, full of physical wrecks whose invalidism has been directly and solely due to the destroying thoughts on which they have allowed their minds to dwell. Truly thoughts are "the realest of all real things," and the whole trend of a man's life, for good or evil, depends on the kind of thinking in which he indulges. "As a man thinketh, so is he," is no mere picturesees literary phrase. It accords with, and is supported by the facts of scientific research and everyday observation. Control your thoughts, and the secret of health, happiness and success is in your grasp.—Kansas City Star. LOCK THAT REQUIRES NO KEY New York Man Has Patented Invention That Probably Will Be Taken Up Eagerly. A lock that can be locked from one side without a key, by the simple turn of the door handle, and that when so locked cannot be opened from the other side of the door was patented recently by Anders Gustaf Anderson of New York. It is quite simple and can readily be understood by examination of the accompanying diagram. This lock is intended for use on the doors of such apartments as bathrooms, private offices or doctors' con- sulting rooms, in which the certainty of absolute privacy is desired without the use of a key. The diagram shows a section through the lock. At F the bar on which the handles are turned is seen in cross section. This turns a bar that presses against D D, the two arms of the bolt H thereby drawing back with the tongue C, which fastens the door. A is a tumbler that falls into place when the handle on the inside of the door is turned. When it has fallen the door is locked so far as the outside handle is concerned, for the latter handle cannot move the tumbler A, and this is in such position that the bolt cannot move back until A has been turned out of the way, which can be done only from the inside. E is a protection to stop A from turning too far. Use for Coal Refuse A. Malivozky, a Polish ceramic chemist, who recently visited this country, discovered that coal refuse could be turned into brick and a large corporation, capitalized at $2,000,000, has been organized to enter upon the manufacture of this new product. The bricks are a deep cream shade, closely flocked with irregular red blotches due to the percentage of iron contained in the coal. This gives a most artistic color to the brick. It has also the advantage of being very hard and close grained, so that it will take a higher polish than granite, which it closely resembles in texture. Another advantage of this new building material, which it is believed will soon be in great popular favor, is that it can be made in any desired size and shape. While bricks in standard sizes will be stale, the material can be formed into pillar, ornamental columns, steps and other forms. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JUNE 26, 1915. LACING AS TRIMMING LACING AS TRIMMING RATHER OLD FASHION THAT IS ONCE MORE IN VOGUE. Illustration Shows How Effective It May Be Made—White Batiste the Best Material for the Lacing as a trimming is revived in the way of novelty every once in a while, and, judging from its present vogue, this is one time. There is something quaintly attractive about the bad, but in many cases it is overdone. Just a touch is all that is needed, and it Lacing Gives a Quaint Touch to This Pretty Frock. Lacing Gives a Quaint Touch to This Pretty Frock. usually occurs at the neck and sleeve ends of a blouse, and, probably, the girdle. Here in the model sketched we find the sleeve ends laced and the back of the bodice. That last sounds inconvenient, doesn't it? But the effect is really too pretty to forego, and, besides, the world is full of kindly disposed souls, who can on most occasions be induced to help one in and out of difficult things and thus save us contortions. In geranium-coral fallle or any of the lovely rose tones this chic little frock will commend itself to those of you who love pretty clothes. The laçings are merely narrow bias folds of the silk knotted at the ends and run through strongly buttoned exelets. As the long sleeves are not set into the armholes of the bodice, it will be necessary to use white china silk or something equally thin for a foundation blouse into the armholes of which the sleeves may be sewed. White batiste is used for the collar and the vest, and by supplying snappers around its inside edge it can be fastened to the foundation blouse and be removed for laundering. The bodice shows a rather deep V in front, but in back is rounded in a shallow curve about the neck. The length is extended a bit below the waist line and in front cut to give the effect of little vest corners, then draped up in place by means of a vertical line of shirring through the center. The wide armshides are bordered with a set-on braid of fine tucks. As the lacing down the back of the waist must not be drawn tightly together, a narrow underpanel of the silk must be sewed down the foundation blouse for a background. The skirt is in two fountains, and so a knee-length foundation is needed. Both are gathered evenly and rather full about the top, then finished above the hem with a six-inch border of fine tucks that serves to hold the flouces away from the figure. In frocks of this description the best results can be had by selecting a good, crisp quality of silk, because the design needs a bourffancy that could hardly be acquired with the softer silks. CARE OF FACE IN SUMMER Hot Weather Particularly the Time When Complexion Must Be Made a Matter of Moment. Summer is not a season of pure delight to the woman who values a good complexion. During the warm months extra precautions are necessary in order to preserve the texture and beauty of the skin, for hot winds, hot sunshine and salt water all play havoc with the complexion. It is hardly possible to go about with a protection in the form of a vell wrapped about one's face, for this is too warm for comfort, and disagreeable and dangerous to the eyes, besides. But there are certain precautions which can be taken to relieve the burning sensation which comes from exposure to the sun.

"The very wide skirt is not seen in the streets, although all the new models which are being copied are showing wider, if not actually wide, skirts," says a woman who returned from Paris recently. "The army coat is very much to the fore, and the smell hat, with great, big, squashed pansels around it, is now so common that no one will buy it any more. A few very wide brimmed hats have appeared which have very good lines. They are made in straw and silk, with flowers set at rare intervals on the brim, and a band of ribbon with a bow round the base of the crown. The brim is wider on one side than the other, and the hat is worn at a smart angle. White hats trimmed with white violets de Parme, entire trques of violets with a knot of velvet sticking up in front or at the side are also to be seen, but nothing is quite so Parisian as the your cheeks you will find, of course, that your skin will become red and dry from this reckless exposure. Don't come in from out of doors, where you have been enjoying a motor trip or a game of tennis and wash the dust and dirt from your skin with soap and water. This only increases the burning sensation and the dryness of the skin. First rub on a quantity of cold cream and rub thoroughly with a soft cloth. After the irritation has been somewhat lessened the face should then be thoroughly washed and cleansed. Fill a basin two-thirds full of fresh soft water. Should the water which flows from the faucet be hard, then soften it with a teaspoonful of borax to every basin. Dip the face in the water, and afterward the hands. Soap the hands well and rub with a gentle motion over the face. Dip the face a second time into the water in the basin, rinse thoroughly and dry with a thick, soft towel. After the facial bath apply some simple lotion, slightly astringent. It will be found very refreshing. The use of a good cleansing cream before the facial bath and a suitable lotion afterward has a really wonderful effect in improving the complexion. The effect of a clean face is in itself altogether delightful. Such a bath tends to rest and refresh the bather and put her in a good temper. Many a bad complexion is due to nothing more nor less than neglect of a proper cleaning process. If more faces were kept really clean a great improvement in the appearance would be noticed. FINE COMBINATION OF COLOR Example of What May Be Done by Contrasting the Shades That Have Widest Difference. Black and white being the mode in Paris must, of course, be the mode on this side of the water, and very beautiful effects are achieved by this striking color combination. In the example here the bodice of plain black silk is straight and secure with prim little turn-over collar and cuffs of white, face-ceded. Wide bretelles of the stripe are gathered into black and-white-striped silk covered buckles 1 on the shoulders. The skirt of the stripe is cut and opens over a "V" shaped piece of plain black silk which, like the bouse, fastens with black silk covered buttons in buttonholes done in white. The belt and buckle are of plain black silk and a band of the same finishes the bodice. Harlequin Designs Popular The profusion of black and white worn this season lends itself nicely to the new popular harlequin designs in squares and diamond shapes. They are almost too striking for people to want them for whole dresses, but they are charming in combination with plain black. The slender woman can wear them well. To Season Utensils New agate and tin cooking utensils require seasoning before they are used. To do this, simply let them stand on the back of the range for two hours, filled with scalding water and bicarbonate of soda, one teaspoonful to a quart of water, then wash and dry in the regular manner. Serge in Many Forms. There are many forms of the silk serge, ranging from a twill almost invisible to a heavy diagonal; but the surah weave is a medium twill and is extremely good looking, either in plain one-tone colorings or in black or color with hair line stripes of white. navy blue straw toque trimmed with fine straw roses in the same color, but in a different kind of straw, and a very aspiring feather fantasy, following the line of the toque. Fine vells are worn with all kinds of hats, but some women have adopted the lace veil with a pattern which makes the face underneath it a negligible quantity." Mended With Lace. Hemstitched tablecloths, towels, napkins and dresser scarfs are very attractive to look at, but the hems get torn off long before the articles are worn out. I have discovered a satisfactory way to overcome this difficulty, writes a contributor. When I see the first break come in the threads, I purchase some narrow torchon lace and stitch it on both edges of the article with the sewing machine. The broken threads are then cut away underneath, and the cover is as good as new. The One Who Knew. Crawford-"Did he tell you that he was going to marry the widow?"

Hot Savory and a Cold Salad Are Always to Be Recommended—Some Suggestions That Are Worth Remembering. A hot savory and a cold salad make a good combination for the summer luncheon, and the savory is a useful dish for the disposition of left-over scraps of meat, fish, etc. The foundation of a savory is usually a triangle on a finger of buttered brown bread toast, or fried bread, pastry or biscuit. The filling may be varied indefinitely, and its arrangement depends upon available materials. Here are a few suggestions for the use of materials common to all house-holds: Tomato Toast.-Half an ounce of butter, two ounces of grated cheese, one tablespoonful of tomato; paprika. Melt the butter and add the tomato (either canned or fresh stewed), then the grated cheese; sprinkle with paprika and heat on the stove. Cut bread into rounds or small squares, fry and pour over each slice the hot tomato mixture. Ham Toast.-Mince a little left-over boiled ham very finely. Warm it in a pan with a piece of butter. Add a litte the pepper and paprika. When very hot pile on hot buttered toast. Any left-over scraps of fish or meat may be used up in a similar way, and make an excellent savory to serve with a green salad. Sardine. Savories.—Sardines, one hard-boiled egg, brown bread, parsley. Cut the brown bread into strips and butter them. Remove the skin and the bones from the sardines and lay one fish on each finger of the bread. Chop the white of the egg into fine pieces and rub the yolk through a strainer. Chop the parsley very fine and decorate each sardine with layers of the white, the yolk and the chopped parsley. Season with pepper and salt. Oyster Savories—These make a more substantial dish, and are delicious when served with a celery salad: Six oysters, six slices of bacon, fried bread, seasoning. Cut very thin strips of bacon; the bacon that can be purchased already shaved is best for the purpose. Season the oysters with pepper and salt, and wrap each in a slice of the bacon, plining it together with a wooden splint (a toothpick). Place each oyster on a round of toast or of fried bread, and cook in the oven for about five minutes. Serve very hot, and sprinkle with pepper. Cheese Savories—Butter slices of bread and sprinkle over them a mixture of grated cheese and paprika. Set them in a pan and place the pan in the oven, leaving it there until the bread is colored and the cheese set. Serve very hot. Uses of Pineapple Juice. The uses of Pineapple Juice The juice left from canned pineapple is fine for use during the canning season to impart flavor to tasteless fruits, as the pear. A pint of juice added to the water in which pears are cooking gives it an excellent flavor. For canning the pineapple is often put up in grated form, or after being run through a chopper. Although it may be served in various forms, the fruit is so excellent that the simplest form is as good as any. Sprinkle a little sugar over the slices about an hour before wanted and set in the refrigerator. If the fruit is quite ripe when served very little extra sugar is needed, but, like all other tropical fruits when sent North, it has to be gathered in a green state and is seldom found quite ripened from the field. No fruit lends itself with greater readiness than the pineapple to coaxing art of the canneries and the preserving factories. Banana Cake. Make any one-egg cake, or better still make a sponge cake and bake in round tins, two layers; slice banana on cake and cover with whipped cream; simply lay another layer of cake on first and cover again with bananas and cream. Whipped Cream—Take one cupful sweet cream, add the white of an egg to give it body, small pinch of salt and whip all together until thick; sweeten to taste and flavor with vanilla—Boston Globe. Pineapple Cake Mix one egg, half a cupful of butter, three-quarters of a cupful of sugar, three-quarters of a cupful of milk, one and a half teaspoonfuls baking powder and two and a half cupfuls of flour. Bake in two layers and when ready to serve put grated pineapple on each layer of cake. Whip half a pint of cream, sweeten to taste and put over pineapples. DumpLings That Never Fall Two cupfuls of flour, two heaping teaspoonfuls of baking powder, one half teaspoonful of salt and one cupful of sweet milk. Stir and drop in small spoonfuls into plenty of water, in which meat is boiling. Boil with cover off for fifteen minutes, then put cover on and boil ten minutes longer. These are very fine with either beef or chicken. Rhubach Custard Stew about one and a half pounds rhubarb and one cupful sugar. Make a soft custard of one pint milk, two eggs, half cup sugar and one tablespoonful cornstarch in a double boiler. Let both cool, then pour custard over the rhubarb. Rhubarb is much better stewed in double boiler, too, using no water. Sour Cream Dressing One-half pint sour cream, two tablespoonful lemon juice, one tablespoonful sugar, one teaspoonful salt, one quarter teaspoonful pepper, one teaspoonful mustard. Beat the cream until it is light and thick; add the other ingredients. Sweet cream may be substituted if desired. SOME OF THE OLD "TIPPLES" Early Housekeepers Had Many Recipes That Have Been Handed Down to Posterity. Whether there will be a revival during the next few years of the domestic art of making wine is a matter of pure conjecture, but it is interesting to recall that formerly many common things that grow around us were utilized by thrifty housewives in the preparation of "tipples" that were more or less mild or more or less potent. Generally the wine-making potentialities of these things are little thought of now, and in most homes, even in country homes, wine-making processes have been forgotten. Reference has recently been made to the making of dandelion wine, a sweet and potent wine prepared with the aid of the golden flowers of the dandelion. Elderberry wine and elderflower wine were made in most of the rural homes in the Potomac country a generation or so ago. Blackberries were gathered industriously by the children for conversion into jam and wine or cordial, and raspberries were especially sought after that wine could be made from them. It is probable that in the minds of elderly persons today there is preserved a better memory of raspberry vinegar than of raspberry wine, for it was popularly believed that raspberry vinegar was superior to that made from apples. In cherry time the fruit was treasured because it could be preserved or converted into a familiar tipple called "cherry bounce", a drink which at certain stages of its "aging" or development was exhilarating and intoxicating. The flavor of gooseberry wine was known and esteemed by most of the grandmothers and grandfathers of present Washingtonians. On all the old farms there was a little distillery, though on some farms it was not so little, just as there was an icehouse and a smokehouse, where the peaches and apples and grapes could be distilled into fruit brandy. Cider-making was a ceremony, and in the late fall when frost had pinched and somewhat shriveled the persimmons a strange potion called perslmon beer was made. Parsnip wine was made by British housewives before emigration to America set in, and the art of making this wine was brought over by the early immigrants. There was also in colonial times in America a drink which was called peppermint wine, or peppermint liqueur. LETTUCE FOR THE TABLE Much Depends on Its Proper Preparation and Arrangement When It Is Served. When lettuce comes from the market, clean in cold water and look it over carefully to see that all dirt and insects are removed. Place on a piece of dampened cheesecloth, then roll up and put on the ice, when it will be ready for use and will often stay fresh for a week. Some persons complain of sleepiness after eating lettuce. This is due to the lactucin in lettuce, which the milky juice contains. This juice may be removed by cutting from the lettuce the lower end of the heads or stalks and then standing the lettuce in cold water for several hours before using. Keep the head intact when you wish to quiet the nerves or to induce sleep. The following is a pretty lettuce relish for luncheon or dinner and may be served in a small cut glass dish: Line the dish with lettuce leaves upon which place either ripe or green olives and tiny red tomatoes. Chill with cracked ice. The olives and tomatoes may be taken with the fingers at any time during the meal. Hot-Water Platter Those who have to solve the problem of cold dining rooms, especially at breakfast time, will find greater comfort in the use of the hot-water platter. Boiling water is turned into the tank under the platter and the top screwed on. Then the nickel cover is placed over the food, which keeps hot and in perfect order for at least thirty minutes. The original outlay seems a little large, as the medium-sized outfit costs about nine dollars, but with careful use it will repay one in the comfort of hot meals. There is also the round hot-water plate which is excellent for the breakfast tray or invalid's use. Shells for Lemon Pie Try my way of making the shell for the lemon pies, and I think that you will be pleased. First I should not put in the baking powder. Turn your deep pie plate upside down, put your crust over what should be the bottom of the tin, pat it so that it fits close. Then turn edges, pick and bake. It will turn out perfect and bake better not having so much bottom heat, because it is raised from the oven floor.—Exchange. Tomato Squares Mix two cupfuls tomato, four cloves, two slices onion, two peppercorns, half teaspoonful salt and one-quarter teaspoonful paprika. Cook ten minutes, press through a sieve. Melt three tablespoonful butter, add one-quarter cupful cornstarch and strained tomato mixture; boil ten minutes. Cool slightly, add one egg, pour into buttered pan, chill, cut in squares, dip in crumbs, egg and crumbs, fry in deep fat. Drain on brown paper. Serve. Puree of Baked Beans. Put two cupfuls of baked beans into a saucepan, add small piece of pork, if you have it, cover with two quarts hot water, season with pepper and salt and add one-half onion. If you do not use the pork add one tablespoonful butter, boil until the beans are very soft, then press through a sieve and serve. Cantaloupe Franes Three pints of cantaloupe pulp, two cupfuls sugar, the juice of two lemons or one-half cupful lemon juice and pass through a very fine sieve. Freeze as usual. Serve from glass cups or from the chilled rind of the molon, shaped into a basket. CAP and BELLS GOOD MEALS NOT FREQUENT Mr. Brown, in Dissertation on His Own Excellence, admits He Does not Smoke Many Cigars. In the lobby of a hotel they were talking about equivocal speeches when Henry Sydnor Harrison, the author, was reminded of a little incident along that line. At a dinner party somebody broached the subject of small vices. A party named Brown broke in with a dissertation on his own excellence. "Of course, I am not criticizing anybody," he said, "but personally I never drink, swear or indulge in habits of that kind." "But, Mr. Brown," interjected one of the company, "you certainly smoke don't you?" "Yes, I like a cigar after a good meal," admitted Brown, "but I suppose that on an average I don't smoke a cigar every month." -Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph Friendly Tlp.
