THIRTY-FOURTH YEAR. NO.1. EX-LIEUT. HENRY O. FLIPPER BRITISH CONTROL IN VATICAN HER ESTEBAN Ex-Lleut, Henry O. Flipper. GEORGE C. HANSEN, ESQ. A Candidate for Judge of the Common Pleas, Court—Vote for Him—How He Worked His Way—Self-Made and Deserving. George C. Hansen, candidate for Common Pleas judge, is 48 years old; was reared on a farm, and taught district and village schools, which enabled him to get his college and professional training. He was superintendent of Hoysville, Ohio, school, two years, and superintendent of the Perrysburg, Ohio, school, one year. He graduated from the Toledo Business college, Ohio Northern University, and the University of Michigan. He was admitted to the bar of Ohio in 1898, and has been in the general practice of the law ever since, excepting assistant county Prosecutor. Prior to his appointment to office, so far as the county treasurer's record discloses, not one dollar had ever been received from forfeited ball-bonds. During his term, more than $12,000 were taken in one judgment on these bonds, and Geo. C. Hansen about $3,000; were turned into the county treasury. Mr. Hansen was complimented with the nomination for Common Pleas judge, without opposition. He is an experienced lawyer of rugged physique, and well-equipped mentally for the position. He is a director of the Detroit St. Savings & Banking Company and Vice President of the Lakewood State Bank. He left home when a mere ld. and has made his own way in the world. He is an typical example of a former farm boy. Few country boys, if any, had to overcome greater obstacles. He has always been active in the civic affairs of Cuyahoga County and has served as president of the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Hansen speaks the German language fluently. As chairman of the executive committee of the County, Sunday School Union's May Festival, several years ago, he led in the effort that so successfully "squelched" an effort of Messrs. Sellers and others, director and assistant, of the affairs of the bar or baf-America from Sunday school representatives from participation in the festival. This shows, in an unmistakable way, what sort of man Mr. Hansen is, from our viewpoint, and whether he is, or is not entitled to our united support at the Republican primaries, August 8, 1916.—Adv. Our Soldiers Ease Firing Squad Columbus, N. M. - Advices reaching here from Gen. Perahing's head headquarters in Mexico the fact that several of our troopers from his command were captured, stood against an adobe wall and heard a firing squad given the order to fire at them, before two troops of cavalry sent out by the general rescued them. The men were subjected to insults and epithets from Carranza's soldiers. Three More of Our Soldiers Shoot! El Paso, Tex.-Three members of the Eighth Illinois infantry were shot and injured by a military patrol of white troops from Fort Sam Houston, Tex. Monday night, when trouble occurred in a saloon near the fort. John Brown's Youngest Dies. San Jose, Cal.-Mrs. John Sadlinger, youngest daughter of the martyr, John Brown of Harpers Ferry, died at Camp bell, near here. Monday. Hes Sarah Brown, died at the same place Brown, aged 69. Mrs. Sadlinger was 66 years old. "He is a Liar." St. John was a great psychologist. Read his first epistle, iv. xx: "If any man say, I love God, and hate his brother, he is a liar. For he that eth not his brother he seeth the seeth how can he love God whom he seeth" THE GAZETTE The Bodies Robbed, Stripped and Thrown Into a Ditch. In Gen. Pershing's final report he reported 15 men unaccounted for. The Mexican official report stated that they had killed 12 including two officers and taken 23 prisoners but they made no mention of their own casualties. The guard which took the prisoners to Chihuahua told them their force consisted of 315 men and that they lost 42 killed and 39 wounded. The Mexicans turned over 23 prisoners and later another one who had wandered into their camp wounded. The American wounded were just four. Only nine dead, have been recovered, so that five men are still unaccounted for. Seventy-six men fought 315, killing 42 and wounding 39 or S1 in all, while the seventy-six lost nine killed, four wounded and five missing. His shows the Mexicans to be perilously bad marksmans and the Americans remarkably good ones, which does not record the records in either case. The ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1916. Capture of Town Gives Gen. Haig Complete Command of German Positions. LOCAL ACTIONS IN PICARDY Germany Reported to Be Pouring Great Masses of Troops Into West; Russ Make Further In-roads into Galicia. London, England. — Germany has sealed the Belgian frontier, according to dispatches from Amsterdam. She is pouring great masses of troops into the west and the frontier has been closed as a precaution against any of their movements becoming known. The German army is excited, realizing that the crucial stage of the war has arrived. says a Coryell News telegram from Holland. "Belgians" are not allowed to leave their homes while the great troop movements are in progress." Preparing Counter Stroke. This news is received here as indicating that the kaiser plans a tremendous counter stroke against the French and British. It is expected to be launched either on the Somme, across the ground where the allies are carrying on their great offensive, or perhaps further to the west. It is believed there is a possibility that it may take the form of the long expected drive on Calais, in an effort to relieve the pressure being brought to bear against the German lines in Piccard. Simultaneous new and violent attacks against the Verdun front are expected. That Germany is preparing for her final and most desperate effort in an attempt to wrest the offensive from the allies, is the general belief in London. - On the main battle front, in Pleasantly unfavorable weather hindered operations to such an extent that only local actions were fought. There were sharp artillery exchanges at many points, however. The British have now won complete control of Pozieres, the last houses which the Germans had succeeded in retaining in the ruined village being carried in night fighting. The capture of Pozieres is one of the most important successes yet won in the British offensive. The village stands on high ground, dominating a great sweep of the plateau over, which the battle of the last three weeks has been fought. It gives Gen. Haig artillery command of the new German positions to the eastward. Pressure is now being brought to bear against the Thiepval salient of the Germans. Some of the strongest fire of the day was directed against this wedge which the Teutons have succeeded in retaining and its early withdrawal is expected. Heavy Fighting in East. With the Russians making further inroads into Galicia and delivering heavy blows on the main road to Lemberg, Field Marshal von Hindenburg has launched a counter blow in the far north. Fighting of the heaviest character took place along practically the entire eastern front, extending from the Riga sector 500 miles southward to Volhynia and Galicia. The German stroke in the north was delivered both by land and in the air. While an airplane squadron was hurling bombs on the Russian station on Oseel, an island in the Gulf of Riga, Hindenburg's troops drove against the Russian front 20 miles west of Riga. The official statement received from Petrograd admits that they pierced the Russian front, but declares they later were driven back. WEED OUT DISCONTENTS WEED OUT DISCONTENTS BLISS, WILL RECOMMEND LIBERAL POLICY IN RELEASING GUARDSMEN. El Paso, Texas. — To "wood out" the disgruntled militiamen along the border, Maj. Gen. Bilss will recommend to the war department that a most liberal construction be placed on its policy of releasing guardsmen with dependent relatives. This conclusion was reached by the assistant chief of staff after an inspection of the Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Michigan militia camps here. "It would be far better," he said, "to have smaller organizations of contented men than large ones in which there is an element of dissatisfaction." Chihuahua. — Suffering from the reopening of an old bullet wound, Villa has been forced to abandon his operations temporarily. This report was brought to Gen. Jacinto Trevino from Parral. Villa, surrounded by about 1,000 men, is lying in a hut near Cuevas, south of Parral. Students To Be Let Out Washington, D. C. — All national guard organizations composed of college students will be mustered out of the federal service in time for them to proceed with their school work at the fall term. It was announced at the war department that the policy of the government would be to disband such organizations completely as units of the national guard, and to seek the reorganization of the college men into the branches of the officers' reserve corps. ```markdown ``` THAT WACO LYNCHING Horrible Doings in Connection with the Texas Lynch-Murder. Ohio Blessed With an Effective Law Against Mob Violence. Considering the skill of weather we are having these days, the N. A. A. C. P. local branch's meeting at St. John's A. M. E. church, Wednesday evening, for Miss Elizabeth Freeman, the suffrage speaker, well known in this country and England, who invested gated the Waco, Texas, lynching for the national organization, was well attended. Her account of that terrible affair was vivid and very stirring. She was on the ground within 48 hours after it occurred and had no difficulty in securing the names and addresses of the ring-leaders and learning that the judge's verdict had made no effort to protect their prisoner. The N. A. A. C. P. is trying to secure a distinguished Texas lawyer who has the courage to take the case against the murderers into court, and two distinguished Boston attorneys, Judge Moorefield Storey, national president of the N. A. A. C. P., and formerly president of the American Bar Association, and Mr. Philip G. Powell, each offered some time ago, to contribute $10,000 toward a $10,000 anti-lynching fund on condition that the remaining $8,000 be raised by August 1, 16. In the last 25 years $2600 Negroes have been lynched. HON. HARRY A. TILDEN. Candidate for State Senator—Former State Representative and a Real Friend of the Race. Mr. Tilden was born, reared and educated in this, Cuyahoga county, attending, Cleveland's schools and the law-school at Ann Arbor, Mich. He worked in shops and factories of the city as engineer and machinist to earn funds with which to secure an education and to enable him to enter his profession, the law. He was admitted to practice in 1894, is a taxpayer and has been a resident of this city all his life. Attorney Tilden is a Mason and a member of the Presbyterian church. While a member of the Legislature he helped enact the vestibule law for street cars, one compelling the companies to place a conductor on every car, the engineers' license and automatic coupler laws, safety device law for dangerous machinery. East and West high school and Clark Av. bridge bond laws, good roads laws, Hon. Harry C. Smith's salary increase law for firemen, and his bill of life nature for the policemen, and the latter's vacation law, as well as every measure Editor Smith introduced for the benefit of his people: the police and firemen's pension law, etc., etc. 1930 statistics show. Speaking of the burning at the stake of the 17 year old boy on the City hall lawn just outside the mayor's window, the Waco Times-Herald says: "On the way to the scene of the burning, people on every hand took a hand in showing their feelings in the matter by striking the Negro with anything obtainable; some struck him with shovels, bricks, clubs, and others stabbed him and cut him until when he was 'string up his blood of the many wounds inflicted covered him from head to foot. * * * Fingers, eps, pieces of clothing, toes, and other parts of the body were cut off by members of the mob that had crowded to the scene as if by magic when the word that the Negro had been taken in charge by the mob was heralded over the city. As the smoke rose to the heavens, the mass of people (many women and children), numbering in the neighborhood of 10, crowded the City Hall lawn and overflowing the square, hanging from the windows of buildings, viewing the scene from the tops of buildings and trees, set up a shot that was heard blocks away. As the Negro's body Mr. Tilden has been a life-long active Republican and the recognition he seeks he is indoubtedly qualified for and deserving of. Vote for him at the primaries, Tuesday, August 8, 1916.-Adv. MONEY SENT TO EDITOR TROTTER. OFFICE OF THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Blk. Cleveland, O., July 20, 1916. J. R. Clifford, Esq. Editor, "Pioneer Press." Martinsburg, W. Va. Dear Confrere:—Find enclosed my personal check for seven dollars and our mutual friend Dabney's check for one dollar, the total amount to date of the "PRESS TESTIMONIAL FUND" for Editor Wm. Monroe Trotter. The latter's rapid condescension undoubtedly accounts in a large degree for the small number of contributions. Then there were those who were unable to rise above their "personal feeling" against the beneficiary of the fund. As chairman of the fund I suggest that you join me in thanking those who have contributed, and in retaining a list of their names for future reference. Sincerely. St. Louis, Mo.-Mary Alice DeLanda, (white), age 16, and Alexander Wright crossed the state line into Illinois and were married, last week. The local marriage license clerk could not issue them a license because of this state's infamous anti-internarriage law—the one Ohio democrats tried to copy in the Assembly of that state, but were defeated in; a fight led by the editor of "The Old Reliable" Gazette. Alice's parents consented to the marriage. Willis Appoints White Trustee Columbus, O.—Gov. Willis announced the following appointment Monday: C. C.

A cowboy who had ridden in off the range created a diversion by hassling the corpse and riding all over town with the remains dangling at the top of the hill. He was honoured off as he galloped through the "reservation," (the ghetto where Negroes and prostitutes 'are segregated), some little boys set it up on one of the doorsteps and extracted the boeh (teeth, which are reported to have brought as high as five dollars apiece from those who could afford such rare goods), and the fragments which held together till night, the undertaker was able to chuck into a very small ash can. Waco is a center of American "culture" in Texas, a great Southern college town. It is a Christian city of 10,000 population, boasting thirty-nine white and twenty-four Colored churches.

One of the Best Known, Active Local Republicans—Always an Aggressive Friend of the Race—A Candidate for State Representative. Mr. Brenner was born in Cleveland, Oct. 8, 1852, and has had an active and very creditable career in his native city. For five years he was associated with Attorney J. C. Bloch in his office, and then served the latter most acceptably as bailiff of the Insolvency court for an equal number of years. Mr. Brenner is a member of the Lakewood Chamber of Commerce and active in other civic and political organizations. He has been the arrested to know about the signers his "Declaration of Candidacy" for state representative are Judges Phillips, Meals, Hadden, Attorneys W. H. Boyd and J. J.

The Gazette will vouch for his aggressive friendship for the race, for his business, for his civic give "Charley Brenner" as he is familiarly called, generous support at the Republican primaries, August 9, 1916. IN TRICON IN TRICON FIFTEEN DIE WHEN OVERCOME BY GAS Workmen Meet Death in Lake Tunnel 125 Feet Under Water as Gas Pocket Is Struck. EXPLOSION FIVE .MILES OUT Sends Death to Nearly Score of Employees; Fellow Workmen Who Went to Rescue Caught by Gas Fumes. Cleveland, July 25.—Fifteen men fell dead, choking in deadly gas and scorched by an explosion, 125 feet under the surface of Lake Erie and tour and one half miles from shore, in the new West Side water tunnel shortly before 12 last night, when a pocket of poisonous vapor, punctured by a tool, flooded their narrow subterranean tube and turned it into a deathtrap. A half dozen other men, those who were not killed where they stood, reeled back along the floor of the tunnel toward the Five-Mile crib, where fresh air and safety might awaken them. Two of them fell unconscious on the way, but the other three staggered to the bottom of the long shaft reaching to the lake's surface and brought the news of one of the greatest disasters in lake work Cleveland has known. Attaches of the crib carried the dazed survivors to the surface, while the call for help was sounded from the big whistles on top of the crib. This frantic whistling, after a half hour, brought the lifesaving crew, headed by Capt. Hans Hansen. Help Quickly on Way to Crib. Within an hour after the disaster, ambulances and police patrols were hauling loads of rescuers to the lake front and tugs carrying pulmotors were heading for the crib. Wearing gas helmets, policemen and firemen gripped their way through the tube in the darkness. For safety, lines were drawn by the foremost of the helmeted men, and the rescuers following them held on to the ropes. The exact location of the bodies could not be determined, so great difficulty was anticipated in recovering them. Rescuers had to guard against the danger of an explosion, as the gas had filled the whole tunnel. The two men who had staggered back to the crib bringing the first news of the disaster were taken to shore in the lifesaving boat, and they were conveyed to Lakeside hospital. Both became insensible while they were being brought to shore, but pulmotors were used while they were being taken to the hospital, and doctors say they have a chance for life. The tunnel in which the accident occurred is designed to furnish the water supply for the new West Side filtration plant. Whistles Send First News Ashore. Because of the distance from shore and lack of means of communication with the shore, and the distance out in the lake, news of the accident did not, reach shore until residents of Lakewood heard the whistling on the crib. TO SAVE MOTHER, KILLS STEPFATHER Boy-Strikes Drink Crazed Man Fatal Blow With Club; Is Placed Under Arrest. Alliance, O.—Rushing to the defense of his mother and his three sisters, whose lives, he claims, were threatened, Sheldon Clement, 15, struck his stepfather, George Sheets, 45, a blow which resulted in his death on their farm northwest of this city. "The boy went to Canton and told the prosecuting attorney the circumstances. My stepfather came home drunk last night and started to abuse mother," said Sheldon. "I left the room at first because I didn't think he would strike her and I never liked to be near when he scolded mother. Pretty soon I heard mother scream. I ran into the bedroom upstairs and saw my stepfather beating her. "He was a big man but I thought I could make him turn on me if I interfered and in that way my mother wouldn't get hurt. I started toward him and he made a dive for me. I jumped aside and he almost fell through the door leading to the staircase. He got up and went to hit me. I struck back and knocked him through the door. He fell downstairs. I ran to the bottom and found he was dead. I would do the same thing over again a hundred times." Young. Clement was arrested on a charge of manslaughter by Sheriff Norwood and County Detective Howell. He was taken in an automobile to Canton jail. Airman Flies Over Berlin. Paris, France — Lieut. Marcal of the French aviation corps last month left French soil and flew over the German capital, upon which he dropped proclamations, and then continued his flight, intending to land within the Russian lines. He was forced to descend, however, in Poland and was taken prisoner. The proclamations dropped by Lieut. Marcal on Berlin state that though it was possible the aviator refrained from bombarding the open town and "thus kill the women and innocent children." PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY One Year.....$1.50.

This is the Gazette's thirty-fourth birthday. We thank the friends who have given us pleasant reminders of the occasion. The Gazette acknowledges the receipt, the first of the week, of $1 for the Trotter "PRESS TESTIMONIAL FUND," sent by Mrs. Patricia Robison, Sheridan, Oregon, an old subscriber of "The Old Rellable." Senator J. Ham Lewis, (Dem.), of Illinois, says that this year's presidential contest is "any one's fight." This is hardly the language of enthusiasm and it is barely the language of hope. It is, however, as much as any Democrat could truthfully say. But the fact is, of course, that the fight is Hughes's. If the Republicans had nominated any man except Hughes, the Democratic press would today be lauding Hughes as the one man the Republicans should have nominated. The rank and file of the Democratic party know that to be the case, and hundreds of thousands of them are going to mark their ballots for Hughes and Fairbanks in November. Former Progressives are working in the Republican ranks this year not because Roosevelt asked them to, but because they find in the Republican party the best hope for the establishment of the governmental principles in which they believe. As a matter of fact, the rank and file of the former Progressives were back in the Republican party many months before Col. Roosevelt announced the course he would pursue. AFTER THE WAR. By the fourth of March next, the war in Europe will doubtless be at or nearing its end. The terms of peace which the belligerents may secure will have little or no importance to the United States, but the manner in which the battling nations will seek to recoup themselves for the losses of the war will be of transcendent consequence to this country. It is evident that the ex hausted peoples of Europe cannot rehabilitate themselves from within. There is no national osteopathy which will enable them to utilize their own internal powers for their economic recuperation. They will be compelled to look abroad for the means of recovery, they will have to seek new and more extended fields of trade and commercial activity, they will have to turn to other and distant markets where money has not been burned in battle and where natural demands will afford an outlet for the products of factories and fields which will again be filled with the men who have lined the trenches. The tremendous activities now being expended upon the battle field will then be transferred to industrial trial and be transferred to industrial feverishly fabricated, be poured out into the world's markets—the best of which is to be found in the United States. Not only at our own ports, but in every port of the world shall be confronted with a competition such as no one has ever seen. To meet these conditions will require constructive statesmanship of the highest order and legislation of the most far-seeing character. Tariff revision, banking legislation, shipping laws, and all kinds of protective and prophetic administration will be needed. For such a task the Democratic party is wholly unsuited. Its parochial and sectional outlook, its selfish character, its mututored leadership render it unable to cope with the problems which will arise after the war. To put "America first" in times such as will be upon us when the war is over it will be necessary to restore the Republican party to power. OUR THIRTY-FOURTH YEAR. With this issue "The Old Reliable" Gazette enters upon its thirty-fourth year, having been published every week on time since Aug. 25, 1883. A remarkable record for any publication! It will be noticed that in thirty-four years, we have gained on 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 Gazette’s successful efforts to wipe out the remants of Ohio’s “Black Laws,” years ago; to secure the enactment of Ohio’s Civil Rights and Anti-Lynching laws, are well-known to our people, particularly those in Ohio. What it has done, in hundreds of other instances, to help, defend and encourage our people, is also well known. One has only to recall the successful fight, led by The Gazette a few years ago, to kill the Ohio Assembly’s infamous 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 out, is never to accept anything in treatment, less than that due all citizens, without reference to race or color. When it comes to our citizen rights, here in the north, we have always been unalterably opposed to a “doctrine of surrender” or conciliatory 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. To our faithful following—thousands of readers in all parts of the country, from ocean to ocean, and from the great lakes to the gulf—we have only expressions of sincere preciation. Urge your friends and acquaintances to subscribe for The Gazette and materially assist us to double our circulation by the first of the year. For all you have done in the past years, we thank you, and again assure you of our thorough apreciation. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1916.

Government property, horses, saddles, guns, pistols, ammunition, the supply on the pack animals which Lieut. Adair failed to reach in time, belts, etc., was delivered with the prisoners, but the personal property is all gone, the peon soldiers got it all. One of the released prisoners claims to have had four hundred dollars in his pocket. The Mexicans got it all. Others had various sums which they lost. Believe me to be, as always, Very truly yours, Henry O. Flipper. AMERICAN PRESS FAIR TO COLORED TROOPS AT FRONT Brief Reference to Past and Present Behavior of Our Fighters. The behavior of the colored troops in the present uprising in Mexico is strictly in keeping with the record of the colored soldiers in all the wars in which the United States has had to take part. The line of their deeds stretches from Bunker Hill to San Juan and thence back across to the western frontier of our country. They took part in the civil war and won fame with the Army of the Forces. The number enlisted was 188,000. At the battle of Olustee, Milliken's Rend and Fort Wagner they bore Old Glory to the fore, and, in the words of Sergeant Bill Carney, the old flag never touched the ground. In the war of 1812 at New Orleans and on Lake Erie General Jackson and Commodore Perry gave testimony of their valor and deeds of daring. No wonder the daily press of the country speaks of their present and past record as being equal to any class of men which has ever shouldered a musket in defense of our common country. It is recorded of Baron von Clausein, a German army officer, who was a visitor to the United States during the Revolutionary war, that in speaking of the bravery of the colored troops he said: "Of the 20,000 soldiers in General Washington's camp 5,000 were Negroes, and the best drilled and disciplined regiment was Colonel Greene's Rhode Island troops, three-fourths of which were composed of Negroes." The Ninth and Tenth cavalry, the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth infantry and the Eighth Illinois regiments, with the regiments of white troops, at the present time constitute the flower of the American army. Should this country become involved in war with any nation or government it may rely on the support of its colored soldiers. The Fifteenth New York infantry, now in the making, will be heard from in due time. The fairness of the daily press of the country in the present crisis is admirable. MEETING OF PHYSICIANS. Interstate Convention Held With Academy of Medicine In Philadelphia. Philadelphia.—The convention of interstate physicians, dentists and drugstores held here from July 13 to 15, inclusive, had a beneficent effect upon the community. The meeting was held under the auspices of the Philadelphia Negro Academy of Medicine, whose president is the well known Dr. N. F. Mossell. The gathering was made up of men representing the professions above named in six states and the District of Columbia. Dr. Mossell has the distinction of being the first physician of the Negro race to graduate from the University of Pennsylvania. Another fact which gave importance to the session was that in this city there are sixty practicing physicians of the race, forty dentists, six drugstores and two hospitals, the Frederick Douglass and Mercy hospitals. The opening address was given by Dr. Mossell, who is the founder and chief of the medical staff of the Frederick Douglass hospital. Clinics were held at each of the above named institutions, which were not only interesting, but very successful. The delegates and visitors numbered over 500. Philadelphia ranks first among the cities of the United States in the medical profession among our people. The committee of arrangements consisted of Dr. George Cannon, chairman, Jersey City, N. J.; Dr. Benjamin Witers, secretary, New York, and Dr. Charles A. Lewis, treasurer, Philadelphia. Will Ethel Brown, or any of her friends, send her address to her mother at once. She was adopted by Mrs. Lizzie Brown, years ago. Mr. Brown is understood to be dead. Address, Mrs. Isaac Wood, 1722 Humphrey St., Kalamazoo, Mich.-Adv. Our advertisers want your trade.

HER TONIC is the result of scientific study of the causes of diseases of the scalp. Instead of treating effects of the diseases she treats the causes, eliminating the same and leaving the scalp in a healthy condition that can be maintained by using her Hair Tonic and Invigorator, according to her directions. Madame C. H. Jones' Hair Tonic and Invigorator is guaranteed to stop the falling out of the hair and to make the hair grow. It has been successfully used by many even since 1900 and with perfect consistency, is recommended by many Toledo people and elsewhere, who want gladiate firm testimonial hair scals by using widely advertised hair tonics prepared by unscrupulous persons who have been trained to use them. On the other hand, MADAME JONES' invigorator has a solitely harmless and will do all that is claimed for it. C. H. Jones' Hair Tonic and invigorator promote the growth of the hair, prevents and cures baldness, removes dandruff and scalp diseases, improves hair color and helps to color the hair by supplying it with the natural elements and necessary nourishment.

BIG BAPTIST The Luna park management refused to allow our ball games to be played on its grounds the last two Sundays and, it is said, has barred them for good. This in addition to barring our people from the Luna park bathing pool, roller-skating rink and dance-hall ought to be enough even for the Cleveland Association of Collision who are announcing an renaming celebration to take place there, next month. The Gazette has steadfastly refused to advertiseements for Luna park affairs of all kinds, for several years, because of the color-lines there and will continue to do so until the latter are discontinued. Our people should enter suits in the courts, under Hon. Harry C. Smith's Ohio Civil Rights law, against the Luna park management, and thus Fight for your rights in privileges and do not give in to such unlawful discrimination. BE MEN AND WOMEN! Speaking of the tunnel disaster, of the first of the week, the Press referred to Garrett Morgan as an "indian" from "Canada," while the following "slap" appeared in the News: "Foremost among the tunnel rescues was Frank Morgan, a giant Negro in the employ of the National Safety Device Company. He climbed into the elevator when they shot down after bringing up Martin Nelson and Patrick Van Duzen into the dependent Van Duzen into his arms and beheaded the cage. It was pitch black, except for the flickering light from the small portable electric flashlights. When they reached the outer air Morgan begged the surgeons and Art Loeb, life guard at Gordon park beach and hero of the Eastland disaster, not to use the pulmotor on Van Duzen. "For God's sake don't try the machine on that man. He's almost gone now and with the machine you'll kill him," said Morgan. Mayor David silenced Morgan and Van Duzen with their work." The N. S. D. Co. furnished 20 helmets also. Morgan did work and his helmets were the best aid in the rescue work they had. This is "Wilberforce Week" in Cleveland. A campaign is being made to interest the people of this city in Wilberforce University. The university held its fifty-third Commencement last month. Many people do not know that it is the oldest institution for the education of our youth in the country. Wilberforce University was started as far back as 1844 and for more than a half century this institution, owned and controlled by our people, has moulded and shaped the lives of thousands of our boys and girls, many of whom are today numbered among this country's most eminent citizens. Ohio has always been kindly disposed toward Wilberforce; indeed the state maintains the normal and industrial department of the good schools may enter with free tuition and room rent. Now there is a proposition on the part of the state to extend special aid to the university for a period of four years in order to enable the school to plant itself upon a more commanding plane. To meet this movement on the part of the state, Wilberforce needs to raise fifty thousand dollars in a match with the WILBERFORCE it not only the monument of its founders, but the pride and glory of the race. Chaplain T. G. Steward, vice president of the university, is the director of the campaign. Prof. L. F. Palmer, principal of the academic department, is in the city arousing enthusiasm for the school. He is being assisted by Rev. J. S. Jackson, of St John's University, in the interest of the university will be held at St John's A. M. E. church, Sunday, 30 at 7:30 p.m. Chapel Steward will deliver the principal address, Prof. Palmer will sing one of his beautiful selections, and there will be other short talks and good music. Let every body go and hear what the speakers say. As they go from here to Indianapolis, Louisville and other cities, let them have the encouragement of your presence.

Kansas City, Mo.—With the securing of the big Convention hall and auditorium the citizens of this city passed their first milestone in preparing for the visitors of the great national Baptist convention that is to be held here Sept. 6 to 12. Inclusive. This foot was accomplished by the committee of three consisting of Des. Hurst, Williams and Beckham, who are representing the general committee in charge of the entertainment of the outreaching. Shown here to the outreaching of this Convention hall news came from Vicksburg, Miss., that the executive committee of the congress in session there had chosen its delegates for the coming big gathering. A program covering six days of constructive work has been made, which is argued here as guaranteeing an unusually interesting session. The committee on homes has been at work for some time making assignments. The citizens of the city, regardless of denominations, have joined hands to help Kansas City entertain her guests the first week in September. The Baptist Ministry alliance took action some time ago whereby the securing of the big city Convention hall and other pieces was heavily indolored. It is the work of the President Johnson of the national Baptist convention that over 5,000 Baptists will invade Kansas City during the week of the convention.

Those who worship gold in a world so corrupt as this we live in have at least one thing to plead in defense of their idolatry—the power of their idol. It is true that, like other idols, it can neither move, see hear, feel nor understand; but, unlike other idols, it has often communicated all these powers to those who had them not, and annihilated them in those who had. This idol can boast two peculiarities; it is worshipped in all climates, without a single temple, and by all classes, without a single hypocrite—Colton. Hurt Fishermen's Business. A strange story comes from Frontigan, Herault, France. Recently 700 gallons of confiscated wine were thrown into a canal there by the customs officers. But the wine had the effect of intoxicating the fish, which swim on the top of the water and can be picked out by hand. The housewives refuse to buy fish when they can get them for themselves, and the fishermen in the district have united to protest against the action of the customs officers. Get to Work.

When the genius is also a worker, no genius, lazy, ever became anythingathy of his, the love of a few the rest of the world, and when he dies world says: "Oh, how sad, such a beau-unappreciated by the world, which arms." Laziness is the major trouble. The only happy people in the world are the successful ones, and the successful ones are the workers. Downright laziness on their own part is not only the chief reason for the whimperings of those who have failed, but is the root of their lack of judgment. A person may be dead wrong, may have an altogether impossible viewpoint, but good, hard labor soon finds the many experiences which bring sound judgment. This is especially true in the art world, the technique of painting, sculpture, music, architecture and acting can be imparted from teacher to pupil, but the real art which is to inspire the use of this knowledge and to bring forth a worthy result, can only be gained through an esthetic background, or by experience. I will bank upon a stolid plodder with ambitions, whether he has much genius or not, ahead of any genius who does not have the ability to concentrate, and a ceaseless industry. When the genius is also a worker, he absolutely becomes a master, but no genius, lazy, ever became anything but an exotic fop winning the sympathy of his friends, the love of a few more weaklings and the scorn of the rest of the world, and when he dies in poverty and without honor, the world says: "Oh, how sad, such a beautiful spirit, and wonderful genius unappreciated by the world, which should have received him with open arms." Laziness is the major trouble. Now They're Sorry. Harvard students no longer use that hackneyed phrase, "I beg your pardon." The new idea is "I'm sorry." Harvard men dread being answered, preferring to do all the talking themselves. For that reason nowadays when they step on the hat of an unutored Bostonese in the course of their gambols they invariably admit that they are sorry and let it drop right there. "I'm sorry," comes from England via France via Chicago, which learned it from New York. Some New Ways of Getting Best of That Tricky Memory. The old method of tying a string about the finger to recall to mind some task to be done at a certain time has been done away with. The new way is to transfer a ring from one finger to another. On the accustomed finger the ring feels natural and does not cause annoyance, but on any other finger it slightly irritates. This irritation constantly will aid in recalling the task to be done. Just try it once. Another and more novel way is to carry a colored ribbon in the coat pocket. Suppose, now, you are in your office. Your wife phones you to be sure and bring home a certain thing. Go to your coat hanging on the office rack, take out the ribbon, and tie it tightly around a sleeve. At night when you start to go home your fist will jam against the tied sleeve. "Oh, yes," you will say to yourself, "there's that cough shrug Molly told me to be sure and bring home tonight," and off you will go at once to make the purchase. POULTY POINTERS Dispose of all the old stock you do not need. This had best be done now, while prices are good and before the annual molt starts. The feeding of milk to young chicks has a most favorable influence on the growth and on lessening the mortality. It tends to prevent mortality from all causes, and if fed soon enough and for a sufficiently long period greatly reduces the death rate caused by bacillary white diarrhea. The hot weather is already giving the plumage a rusty appearance, and it will grow worse from now on until molting time. Keep the chicks free from lice; keep them growing, for every little attention tells and brings nearer the coveted blue ribbon. A splendid mixtre for laying hens is equal parts of cracked corn, wheat and oats, which should be scattered in the litter. Be sure to give plenty of water and see that the chickens, both large and small, have plenty of green food. If your yards do not have plenty of grass, try dividing the runs and sowing part to rye or rape. A promising bunch of chickens can be spoiled by one night's sweating. Allowing 100 or more to crowd together in a small coop is sure to be the ruination of some of them. If you would raise the finest fowls, do not allow more than 50 youngsters together at night. Some Things That Are New. There are said to be 40,000 muscular fibers in an elephant's trunk. A trap has been invented to catch rats as they try to enter a ship by climbing a hawser as it is moored in port. To prove the safety and value of his parachute a French inventor dropped 1,000 feet with it from an aeroplane. A novelty in the jewelry line is a device to enable a man to light a match and extinguish it when it has been used. A mixture of linseed oil, slaked lime and cotton fiber is used in some portions of Turkey as a substitute for cement.

Commissioner of Health, Pennsylvania God breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul—Genesis. Air is life; without it man ceases to live. Living in impure air, his health gradually depreciates and he becomes a dyspeptic, predisposed to tuberculosis and other diseases. Often after suffering for years, during which time he is unable to enjoy the good things of life, he meets an untimely death. gradually depreciates and he becomes a dyspeptic, predisposed to tuberculosis and other diseases. Often after suffering for years, during which time he is unable to enjoy the good things of life, he meets an untimely death. The majority of us have to work in offices and buildings artificially heated during the cold season. Our places in which we spend so many hours during the winters and early spring days are far from having perfect ventilation. This therefore is the reason for us all to take advantage of mild weather conditions to get all the fresh air possible to build our physical bodies up so as to resist the unfavorable conditions we must submit to during the cold months of the year. This should apply to all ages, especially including babyhood and on up to old age. It means outdoor living as much as possible both day and night. When compelled to be in buildings keep the windows up; otherwise you have dead pockets of air in your rooms at your homes and place of occupation. Clean, well aired, homes built so as to admit of plenty of fresh air all the year around and outdoor living as much as possible during the summer, will do much to bring health to the home and just in proportion to your health your life will be worth living.

THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, JULY 29, 1916 WILD BILL'S FAMOUS SMILE CAN CHANGE INTO A FROWN Hugh Jennings Tells How "Fighting" Disposition of New York Manager Showed at Times. According to Hugh Jennings, the Detroit manager, who had several years' experience with the subject of this sketch, back of that famous smile of Wild Bill Donovan there was a mighty "fighting" disposition. "Bill has lost his smile on any number of occasions," says Hughle. "I can recall numerous instances when the Tigers were fighting for the pennant in the years 1907, 1908, 1909, that Bill trown quite as often as did any of the rest of us. "For several weeks in the season of 1907 the Tigers were in front, but they couldn't gain on the Mackmen. Then came a series with Cleveland. Just W YO "Wild Bill" Donovan. prior to the Tiger-Nap engagement the Cleveland team had played three games with the Athletics and had used second-string pitchers. When Detroit showed up the Naps had Joss, Rhodes, Moore, Hess and Bernhard ready and we were beaten in three games. "After the third game I spent a few minutes jawing with Addie Joss. Bill joined us and right afterward Rhodes lipped in. Then Doc Payne, the Cleveland trainer, inserted his voice. This was too much for Bill. "Turning toward Payne, he yelled: "Now, you get out of this argument—and stay out. I know you have a reputation as a fighter, but either show something now or get on your way." "Payne left." Wise and Otherwise, Wise is he who has the cage ready for the bird. Old age commands respect—except in jests and poultry. If you can get a horse at a bargain—drive the bargain.

Many Novelties Are Offered For the Delight of Fair Women—Illustration Shows One of Those Best Liked. Vells of all sorts will play an important role this summer at the fashionable seaside resorts. For example, the long floating veil which is thrown completely over a wide-brinned hat and then turned back in front, jeweled plus being used to hold it in place. Or the quintet little flounce veil, which is attached to the brim of a close-fitting turban and which reaches only to the tip of the nose. I have illustrated one of the latest summer veils. This smart veil is made of bronze tulle traced over with silver threads, writes Idalia de Villers, Paris correspondent of the Boston Globe. Both Paquin and Lewis are making these, which come under heading "picturesque." The model was created by Georgette and the charming little toque was made of raspberry-pink taffeta, with pict ribbon in the same color circling the crown and tied in a large bow in front. The veil, which was very large and fragile, was made of dull blue shadow lace. It was thrown over the crown of the toque and allowed to fall carelessly over the left shoulder. Vells of this order are effective when made of fine shadow lace in such colors as Chinese blue, heliotrophe, myrtle green. A Close-Fitting Toque of Raspberry Pink Tinktafa Over Which Is Thrown a Long Dull Blue Veil. bronze or pearl gray. In some cases the edge of the veil is worked over in ploot stitch, with gold or silver threads. The latest hatpin has a mushroom-head covered with multicolored bead embroidery. The Parisian milliners have brought bead embroidery to a high state of perfection; indeed, many of the bead trimmings seen on the new hats and touques are beautiful enough to deserve a place in the glass case of a museum. The mushroom-head pins have outer rims of fine paste, and they are so decorative in themselves that no other trimming is needed. Very large sailor hats covered with crepe de chine and lined with the straw will be popular at Barritz in the months of August and September. And it is said that the "clon" of the plage season will be the tricot "sweater" richly embroidered with metallic threads and lined with printed silk. The Parisiennes have gone quite mad on the subject of sweater coats. These bright-colored sweaters look charming over white linen or muslin dresses. And it must be admitted that a well-cut sweater is exceedingly becoming to the average figure. For early morning wear the sweater must, however, be severely plain. Put Life Into Living Room We spent weeks and weeks after we had got our new home on paper in planning the color scheme and the wall decorations, and in deciding just how we could make our old furniture fit into its new environment, remarks a writer in the Houston Post. We had started out ten years before with mission furniture—it is so satisfactory in a living room when there are growing children—and we shut our eyes to the delight of the colonial mahogany and white paint, and built our room around the old things. We had the woodwork stained dark brown and a brown paper with a lighter brown figure in it put on the walls. The fact curtains were cream scrim and the overhangings were brown cement cloth Goes With Summer Frock. Have you noticed that everybody carries a bag? Of course, you have, if you keep your eyes open. For the bag is one of the earmarks of the summer frock. Not the ordinary handbag is this bag of 1916. No, indeed. It is a new sort of bag with a very quint and time-worn element in its make-up. For it is a bag modeled on the chatelette bags worn by medieval ladies, a bag modeled on the little puffs of silk and velvet that hung from the high waistline of Napoleonic beauties. Very often the bag is of the same material as the frock. There is the taffeta frock, for instance, with the little shirred taffeta bag on drawstrings of ribbon. There is the frock of stripes in Palm Beach cloth or linen, with matching bag of striped material. There are parasol and bag sets, too. Some of them are of cretonne, and sometimes there are sets of bag, skirt and hat of cretonne, and sometimes there are sets of hat and bag. These are for beach or mountain wear. There were three windows at each end of the room, and a French window opened on the porch at each side of the fireplace. So the room was very light, but somehow when we got this far we were disappointed—it wasn't the cheerful, cozy room we had planned. After studying the problem for some time we decided that it was too heavy looking, and so much brown was monotonous. It lacked living color. We wished we had chosen a gay chintz for hangings instead of the plain brown. But as we hadn't thought of it till too late we set about bringing the rooms to life with the remaining furnishings. We bought two wide wicker chairs and cushioned them with cretone in which there were old blues, gold and orange, with touches of black and white. We bought a tall wicker floor lamp—there is nothing that softens a room like wicker—and I put a lining of the cretone under the shade. I made orange shades for the side fixtures and bought two or three pieces of the bright painted tin that is in vogue just now, one a gorgeous yellow watering not for the flower stand. Evening Gowns for Summer. In the selection of evening gowns for summer it is not easy to find a fabric which will look cool and attractive and at the same time be firm enough to stand the wear and tear of summer activities. Embroidered linens, tules and chiffons are all right if one can afford them, but they are very destructible, and if they cannot be used, the choice is limited. Some of the silk and cotton fabrics have proved very desirable, having much the same appearance as silk, but selling for a much lower price. Chiffon, silk and cotton chiffon, crepe de chine and silk and cotton crepe de chine, the two marquiseset and volle show the difference in price rather than in appearance. So if one feels unable to pay $2 a yard for material, she may buy her gown for a quarter of that price. The dress will be more durable and almost as effective. The chief feature of summer gowns this year is to be ribbons in loops, bows, bands and ruffles. These add color and a look of quality to moderate-priced material, and there is no country where ribbon may be bought more cheaply and in such variety as in the United States. Costume Jewelry The latest development of costume jewelry is the bracelet and hair band to match. Some of the newest evening gowns have long, floating angel sleeves, caught to the wrist by bangles of gem-studded filigree gold of the same design as the circlet worn around the head. Black Velvet Coat. PETER W. SMITH The model of the evening coat is very full and in kimono style with very wide sleeves that are draped a little above the wrist. The bottom of the coat is made of velvet, embroidered in Chinese fashion and has a sweeping train. The sleeves and collar are of skunk fur. The bag influences reaches pockets. For the newest sort of pocket is very suggestive of a bag. The pocket is big and the top of it is shirred, bag fashion, so that it lies flat against the skirt. These shirred pockets are used sometimes on smocks and the shirred top is smocked to match the rest of the smocking. A striking coat shows the bag influence in its pockets, but in a different way. The two big pockets hang from the shoulder by two straps, one fastened at the shoulder and the other fastened at the shoulder on the back. The pockets hang free from the skirt of the coat, suggestive of the tourist's luncheon bag. Lotion for Chapped Hands. An excellent lotion for chapped hands can be prepared at home, after the following formula: Mix one ounce of each—camphor, bay rum and glycerine, then add the juice of one lemon and a few drops of carbolic acid." "Home Department," in National Magazine. FOR HOT WEATHER SIMPLICITY IN CLOTHES IS NOW MUCH IN DEMAND. And Here Is Where the One-Piece Frock Justifies Its Continued Popularity—May Be Made at Home of Small Goods. The woman who searches anxiously for clothes that can be slipped into easily in summer weather, avoiding the tedious accessories that are demanded by the usual method of midsummer dressing, finds the one-piece gown a joy, for it is built on one lining, and that of course white net which not only washes but is cool. She can slip the thing over the shoulders, adjust the girdle, and life is simplified. Only the inordinately vain or fastidious woman would imperil her nervous system by exhausting herself in the trifles of dress when the thermometer is making things unpleasant in the morning. Life may demand otherwise for certain hours and occasion, but in the house and before the afternoon, surely then, if at any time woman should be free from the fret of adjusting a multitude of clothes on her person. Another choice of hot weather frocks which is to be commended as it shows a normal attitude of mind as to what fabrics go with what temperatures, is for two-piece frocks of wash silk in narrow stripes. Blue, yellow, green and lavender against a white background are the selected colors. The smart dressmakers are asking $75 for these costumes, including a belt of the mateful elaborated with pearl buttons, which seem to have suddenly found favor with those whom fashion clothes because France sent over a black skin coat with a cream lace skirt, the sides outlined with two rows of these white ornaments; but it is not even necessary for a woman to have an especially good seamstress to accomplish one of the "seventy-fives" at a third the price. The blouse is cut like a mannish skirt with pliats in front and back, the sleeves ending in broad turnover cuffs of white silk; the shirt is slight- --- No Woman Can Be Really Beautiful Who Neglects This Most Important of Duties. Most of us neglect our eyes until they are in such a dangerous state that we must care for them. How many read in poor light, sleep with the light streaming in on the eyes or strain them in the sunlight when bathing at the seashore or motoring! How many of you bathe the eyes daily? The daily eye bath is one of the most important and essential parts of every person's life. None would live in a house with unwashed windows. But we will go year after year without washing the windows of the soul. When one considers how a clear, PETER PAN HAT PETER PAN HAT The model is a charming one in a combination of straw and velvet. The lower part of the high crown is of velvet. The upper part is of fine-woven straw. Two ribbon feathers are jauntly slipped into slits on either side of the hat. FASHION NOTES Coarse rush straws are particularly appropriate for country hats. New are the sailor hats of pink or blue linen bound with ribbon. Some of the new hats are trimmed with tiny flat baskets of flowers. with tiny flat baskets of flowers. Period style brooches go very well with the present quaint frocks. Organdie gowns are trimmed with beads and with velvet and flowers. May flowered delaine and blue taff feta make a charming combination. Petticoats of net with flouces finished with flowered ribbon are very full and cool looking. Flowers, fruit, animals and landscapes are now painted by hand on hats, stockings and gowns. A frock made of white material dotted with blue spots and trimmed with blue ribbon is ideal for a summer afternoon.

The collar is a sweeping affair of white silk that rolls well down over the chest. These gowns have taken the place of the ever popular jersey cloth in the wardrobe of several women who have monotony in the weary repetition of the same fabric, usually made up in the same manner. And an excellent quality of wash silk is one of the materials which never leave regrets.

I am told by physicians that indigestion, nervousness, headache and other ailments are often the result of weak, strained or tired eyes. Many women do not know their eyes are not normal; many are too vain to wear glasses. They prefer to disrupt and upset the entire system rather than wear a pair of glasses because they look better without them. If the trouble is taken in time the glasses need never be worn in public.

A pinch of salt thoroughly diluted strengthens the eye and rests it. Or boric acid is also a good eye wash. The cup must be well cleansed before using on either eye. Sometimes one eye will be infected while the other is quite well and the eye cup will carry the infection. Under no conditions should more than one person use the cup. If one can spare the time after washing the eyes it is wise to lay a damp cloth over them and lie down for ten minutes.

A stunning cape to wear over lingerie dresses at the shore is of bright red, blue or yellow bovia, vicuna or velour delaine. This cape is simply a very wide circular cape which drops nearly to the hem of the short dress and is gathered on to a wide sash which has long ends. So when it is drawn up round the neck it makes a muffler which goes about the throat several times. This cape is most artistic when it is worn as if it were simply thrown about the shoulders, the collar sash ends crossed in front and fastened under the cape behind.
