ROUMANIANS TAKE AUSTRIAN TOWNS
Russians Reported to Have Captured Principal Passes of Carpathians.
BULGARIANS SEIZE DRAMA
Reports Greece in Turmoil Over Probability of Entering Conflict; Berlin Reports Repulse of the British Troops.
Amsterdam, Holland.—The Roumanians are smashing ahead in their drive for the Hungarian plains and have reached several enemy points beyond the frontier, according to the latest Bukharek dispatches.
An official statement reports the occupation of a village not far from Kronstadt, one of the Roumanian objectives.
The Russians, meanwhile sweeping southward to effect a juncture with the Roumanians, have captured the principal passes of the Carpathians, according to communications from London via Rome.
Petrograd Reports Gains.
Petrograph Reports Gains.
The Russians have captured Panker mountains in the Carpathians on the Bulgarian border, the Russian war office announces. The village of Rafał, on the Bystritza-Nadverna river near the border, also has been captured, says Petrograd.
Unconfirmed reports on operations along the Roumanian front bring word the Roumanians are bombarding the Danube towns of Rustchuk, Bulgaria, and Orsova, Hungary, and that Bukharest has sent an ultimatum to Bulgaria, demanding the evacuation of Serbia.
Another report is that Turkey has declared war on Roumania. This, of course, is not unexpected.
The central powers, it is said, will not attempt to defend the entire Roumanian border, owing to its crookedness and to the many troops required to protect it.
Zurich, Switzerland, reports that Roumanian cavalry has crossed Rothenhmur pass and is approaching Harmannstadt, Hungary.
While Greece is in a turmoll over the possibility of entering the war, Paris reports the city of Drama, one of the principal places in northeastern Greece, has been seized by Bulgarians after a battle with the Greek garrison.
On Western Front.
On the western front Berlin declares German troops in the region of the Somme repulsed strong British attacks along a line, from Ovilliers to Pozieres and between Guillemont and Maurepas. British detachments which penetrated the German positions at points north of Ovilliers and Pozieres were defeated in hand-to-hand fighting.
Paris says the French launched another attack on the Verdun front east of Fleury and made further progress. Russian forces operating in the region of Lake Van, in Kurdistan, according to information received here from Petrograd, have pushed their way to a point six miles from Bitlis.
NATIVES IN BAD PLIGHT
CONDITIONS IN MEXICO REPORTED TO BE WORSE THAN AT ANY TIME.
El Paso, Tex.—The conditions in Mexico are worse now than at any time during the last six years of revolution. Americans arriving here from Mexico City and other interior places bring this information to the border. Refusal to accept Carranza paper money in payment for their work is causing the executions of hundreds of laborers by the Carranza military authorities. Workmen receive 10 pesos in currency for a day's toil. That means about 25 cents gold. When they refuse to accept the paper their employers complain to the nearest military headquarters and the laborer is shot. This has happened scores of times in the districts around Mexico City, American arrivals say.
Typhus fever is raging throughout the country. Hundreds are dying, for only the very wealthy can afford to pay $50 a bottle for the necessary medicines. Famine is spreading and the meat supply has been commanded by government officials.
Santa Cruz Favers Sale.
St. Thomas, D. W. I.—The legislature of Santa Cruz has adopted legislature of Santa Cruz has adopted and cabled to the Danish government at Copenhagen a resolution favoring sale of the Danish West Indies to the United States. The colonial council of St. Thomas and St. Johns, the two other islands of the Danish West Indies, already have taken similar action.
Takes Over Catholic Churches.
Mexico City, Mexico—Gen. Carranza, in a decree just made public, announces the nationalization of property of the Catholic church in Mexico.
The churches nominally will be controlled by the clergy. The government, however, reserves the right to police them and prevent them from being used for any purposes other than prescribed by law. The government also reserves the right to continue their use as a place of worship after one year's service.
PRINCE MAHIDEL

Prince Mahidel of Songka, brother of the king of Slam, who has come to the United States to study sanitation for the health health conditions in his own country.
Declares War on Autria-Hungary; Germany Recalls Her Representatives.
Amsterdam, Holland.—Roumania has cast the die and is at war with the central powers.
Swayed by the diplomacy of the allies, Bukharest, long on the fence, has decided to hurt her trained army of 600,000 men into the fray in an eleventh-hour attempt to carve a much larger place for herself in the Balkan states.
Roumania's entry came in the form of a declaration of war against Austria-Hungary.
Berlin is crying "treason," "treachery" and "broken treaties," but with characteristic vigor has replied with a declaration of war on Bukharest. Bulgaria and Bulgaria are expected to follow suit if they already have not done so.
Fighting already is raging in the new war theater.
The first clashes between troops of Roumania and the central powers occurred in southeastern and eastern frontier mountain passes of Hungary, says an official statement given out in Vienna. The Roumanian attacks are described as "treacherous."
Roumanian prisoners were taken on the Transylvanian frontier.
Advance guards came into contact at Rothenhurm pass, 15 miles south of Hermanstadt, Transylvania, and in the passes south of Kronstadt (Brasso).
Berlin officially verifies this announcement.
After the Austro-Hungarian minister to Bukharest had received his passport and the Roumanian minister to Vienna had called for the papers that meant a severance of diplomatic relations, Berlin gave out the following statement:
"After Roumania, as already reported, disgracefully broke treaties concluded with Austria-Hungary and Germany, she declared war yesterday against our ally.
"The imperial German minister to Roumania has received instructions to request his passports and to declare to the Rolmanian government that Germany now likewise considers herself at war with Roumania."
Convinced He's Out of Politics.
Chicago, Ill. — Former President William H. Taft, here to attend the convention of the American Bar association, told reporters that Chicago convinced him he was out of politics.
"I walked four blocks through the downtown streets and made one purchase in a store without anyone apparently recognizing me," the former president said.
Shows Prosperity
New York City.—Stories of the remarkable wave of prosperity that is flowing over the entire country were told by the 600 delegates to the national convention of agency clubs of the Equitable Life Insurance society. Every man has done from $100,000 to $1,000,000 worth of insurance business during the year.
WILL Study Radio Torpedo
Washington, D. C. — Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, commanding the army's eastern department, has been appointed head of a joint army and navy board, to pass judgment upon the radio controlled torpedo, provision for the purchase of which from the inventor, John Hays Hammond, Jr., is made in the fortifications bill. If the board reports favorably and President Wilson approves, the war department is authorized to expend $750,000 for the purchase of exclusive right to manufacture the device.

IN OLD MEXICO, ON THE BORDER!
With Soldiers and Civilians of Both Countries.
Interesting Reminiscences and Experiences of a Former Cleveland, Will E. Smith.
El Paso, Tex. Aug. 17, 1916.
Dear Friend:—The Mexican question may be likened to an algebraic problem with indeterminate quantities. The solution depends on the known or assumed factors which are constantly changing. And so the question most natural to be asked is: "What is the trouble? Why is all this furry and fuss?" Of the hundreds—both Mexicans and Americans—of soldiers and civilians of whom I have sought a reason, the final reply, even after attempted explanations, sometimes lengthy and involved, has been: "Well, I don't know." So I am writing of those conditions with which I am acquainted and if I am wrong in my conclusions it is because of the unknown factors and new conditions. Six years ago Mexico was a quiet, peaceable country. In form she was a republic, in fact she was a despotism. Her boundless wealth was bartered away by her masters for their own benefit. White men gained valuable concessions for a patry sum or by a trick or artifact. By bribery, too, many rights were secured by foreigners. There were, however, enough straightforward, above-board transactions to lend respectability to the whole. And this cloak of virtue is useful today in hiding the highwayman and robber, for he can show the clean deals which have suffered by the present disturbed conditions in Mexico. The lower class of people were peons who worked on large ranches or plantations. They were always in debt to their employers; each year finding them deeper and deeper in debt. The plan was much the same as that employed in the south with our people. They had unlimited credit at the store and so the less a man bought the more he owed. This method was practically slavery. But comparisons are odious and the United States is civilized and is therefore not to be compared with Mexico although operations are identical. In those years Pancho Villa was a bandit. He would rob the rich and give to the poor. These conditions became intolerable. The burdens of the poor became heavier every day. They were borne only because a Mexican loves his country. There is no patriotism more true, more certain or more steadfast than the Mexican love for his country. And so, when it was whispered that the high and mighty were selling out their country, the murmurings of the people swelled to a mighty roar; the latent fear of some impending disaster displayed itself in a suspicion—every man of his brother; war clouds to lower, and in the darkness of night to let loose; they were dark, staring, raving mad, and every man who stood in the night of despair, were recognized. Anarchy reigned supreme. In the intermittent flashes of reason only men, such as Villa, who had done them a turn in their night of despair, were recognized. And his kind became fond of some indefinite good like everything, but there was nothing to hold. And so for six years this struggle has gone and incidentally disturbing the peace of the neighboring republic. In the midst of this turnip, many foreigners lost valuable concessions. Originally these concessions cost nothing or very little but now it is different. The call comes for the U. S. to protect this property. There is your "casus belli." Now other matters are incidental. Border raids, capitals, dwellings, the war department, occupation of foreign territory, are incidentals, although very important in themselves and perhaps outweighing the original trouble; just as the liberation of the slave was an incidental event of the civil war which was to hold the union together. The masters of the country were overthrown and driven out of Mexico. Then the question of the rehabilitation of the country arose. Every man who had an idea of the best method to those to whom his idea appealed the strongest. Then to the leader of every group came offers of financial aid to perpetuate his idea. Some leaders accepted; others refused but these of
fers made each leader suspect the other of being willing to sell out the country or of being a grafter. These suspicions caused each leader to become an active opponent to the other. Each tried to destroy the other. Gradually the many chiefs have drifted into the Carranza in the center, and Villa in the north. By a turn of luck Carranza got the upper hand. Villa attempts to dislodge him by creating trouble between him and the U. S. That is the reason of border raids. As Carranza tries to dislodge the raids, the U. S. sends her own troops into the bandit ridden country which gives Villa a chance to say that Carranza is selling out the country to the "gringoes." And there you are.
With best wishes. Your friend,
Will Edwin Smith.

NAME A TICKET
Defy "Lily-White" Republicans to a Trial of Strength.
Memphis, Teen—The Lincoln Republican League of Tennessee, in mass convention with 1,600 Afro-Americans present, last week Monday night, nominated a full ticket to enter the race for Congress, State Senate and the House of Representatives. The meeting was held at Church's Auditorium, Robert R. Church, Jr., presiding, and speeches were made by B. V. Burchell of Tipton County, N. F. Clowers, B. F. Booth and M. H. Borar. The main contention of the speakers present was that the so-called "lily-white" Republicans have for a number of years, through star chamber proceedings, completely ignored the Negro Republicans to constitute the red blood of the party in the Tenth Congressional District and the entire South. The following men were nominated:
For Congress—Wyman Wilkerson, undertaker.
For State Senators—B. M. Roddy, banker, and H. M. Borar, lawyer.
For Plotterial Senator—B. F. Burchell of Roosevelt counties.
For House of Representatives—G. W. Atkins, O. W. Williams, Ed Lewis, N. F. Clowers, A. E. Clouston, T. H. Hayes, J. T. Settle, J. B. Willis.
THANK YOU!

Hon. Harry C. Smith,
Editor, The Gazette
Cleveland, Ohio.
Dear Mr. Smith:—It is rather late to tender you my heartiest congratulations upon the 34th anniversary of your retirement. I am grateful for its continued success are none the less sincere, allow me to assure you.
Living under continual pressure of poor health and constant work you will readily understand that I am compelled to lay reading matter aside quite frequently for future reading and it thus came about that I only recently read of The Gazette's "birthday." No doubt you will kindly parade with me in the room of the most courageous, out-spoken and just papers of the race, and since to wish its able editor success is simultaneous with ensuring its own, and, since the success of both lays the firm foundation for the welfare of the race, certainly all true friends of justice and liberty will whole-heartedly wish both a sincere "God-speed" on their future read of Life!
Sincerely yours,

MISS CATHERINE LEALTAD
Secretary of Prohibition National Convention Committee, St. Paul, Minn., Who Will Shortly Rosign to Engage In Educational Work as a Teacher at the State Normal School, Jefferson City, Mo.
St. Paul, Mim.—The large number of young men and women, graduates of the various high schools and colleges who are making good in business and the professions, is one of the most important signs of racial advancement. The importance of well trained leaders among our people cannot be too forcefully urged when one considers the many thousands of our young folks who are deprived of even a common school education.
In this connection it is gratifying to note the desire of "tiss Catherine Leatad of this city to further prepare herself to be of greater service to the race as a social worker. Miss Leatad is the daughter of the Rev. Mr. Leatad, who is the minister of the Anglican church in this city. She graduated with honors from the McAllister college here in 1914. She is ambitions, studious and persistent and has a fixed aim in life toward which she directs her energies.
For sometime Miss Leatad has been the efficient secretary for the Prohibition national convention committee with headquarters in this city. In order to broaden her views and gain larger experience for her life's work Miss Leatad will shortly resign her position with the prohibition committee to take an educational work as a teacher in the state Normal school at Jefferson City, Mo.
While teaching she will also take a course of study in social service, a line of work in which she will engage in later with special reference to prohibition among our people.
KANSAS CITY READY FOR
BIG BAPTIST CONVENTION
National Organization Convenes in Missouri Metropolis, Sept. 6.
Kansas City, Mo.—From the headquarters of the local committee of arrangements in this city information has been sent out that "all things are ready" to give the Baptists who are to assemble in their national convention here Sept. 6 such care and attention as has never been attempted by any local committee in the entertainment of the delegates since the convention was organized.
"The west is bristling with the desire to do its best and to stamp indelibly upon the hearts and minds of the people its big heartedness, golden opportunities and burning desire to do honor to the largest gathering of religious workers in the world."
The committee of arrangements for the National Baptist convention, knowing, as it does that the coming of the convention will mean much to Kansas city and vicinity, has the full co-operation of members of both races. The many friends and loyal supporters who are writing from various sections of the country will be notified of their stopping places. Every effort is being made by the committee to make every moment of the delegates' stay a pleasant one in every way. There will be splendid transportation arrangements and facilities, as Kansas City is noted for the best street car system in the country.
The Commercial club, the Business Men's league, the Medical society and other civic organizations are in hearty accord with the plans. The meeting place of the convention, the great convention hall, is in the pathway of two of the best car lines in the city, operating many different cars connecting the two Kansas Cities. The many friends who are coming from the east and north will share these advantages. Committee, Rev. J. W. Hurse, D. D.; Rev. J. B. Bckham, D. D., and Rev. J. R. Williams.
Mrs. Terrell Asks Chance For Our Race. Mrs. Mary Church Terrell was the chief speaker at one of the sessions of the Sunday school conference held at East Northfield, Mass., the latter part of July. Mrs. Terrell is the wife of Judge R. H. Terrell of the municipal court in Washington. She spoke of the plucky struggle which the colored woman is making under the most discouraging conditions, in some cases no better than they were fifty years ago, and often deliberately aggravated by the dominant race, said Mrs. Terrell, who made a strong plea that equal opportunity in gainful occupations be given to men and women of the colored race in proportion to their ability.

STRIKE FEARED DESPITE CONGRESS
President Appeals to Legislators to Enact Laws Which Will Avert Trouble.
MAY PASS EIGHT-HOUR LAW
Head of Conductors' Brotherhood
Says Eight-Hour Law Will Stop
Strike; The Presidents Decline to Accept Plans.
Washington, D. C.—Congress, as a result of President Wilson's personal appeal to both branches, it seems reasonably certain, will enact an eight-hour basic day law for the engineers, firemen, conductors and brakemen of the railroads of the country.
What kind of a law it will be none of the leaders of the house and senate is as yet at all certain.
President Garretson of the conductors' brotherhood, and spokesman for all the trainmen, said: "An eight-hour law by congress will head off a strike."
The prospect for the early passage of this law, despite the fact that constitutional questions are involved in any attempt to fix wages, is the first direct result of President Wilson's appearance before the assembled branches of congress.
Just before the president went to address congress it became known the strike leaders had positively called the strike for Labor day unless a favorable settlement was reached before, and that the negotiations between the managers and men had been broken off.
The committee of railway presidents made a public statement of their position, declining to accept President Wilson's plan and giving their reasons.
President Wilson consumed just 21 minutes in delivering his address. He recommended: Enlargement and administrative reorganization of the interstate commerce commission; an eight-hour day for all railroad employees engaged in operating trains in interstate traffic; a congressional committee to study results of the application of the eight-hour day to railroad operation alike for the men and for the roads; an instruction from congress to the interstate commerce commission to consider what just increase in freight rates the railroads would be entitled to, if any, due to the eight-hour day; an amendment of the federal mediation, conciliation and arbitration laws to provide for a full public investigation before a strike or lockout may be lawfully attempted; granting the president power in case of military necessity to seize and operate such portions of the railways as may be required for military uses, to draft into the military service such train crews and administrative officials as circumstances may require. The first manifestation of approval came when President Wilson said he had been acting merely as "the spokesman of the nation" and as "the representative of the hundred millions of men, women and children who would pay the price, should these men refuse to accept the larger responsibility which the public would put upon them."
There was applause, too, but of milder type, when the president declared for an eight-hour day, and again when he asserted that the railroads "will be obliged ultimately to accept the eight-hour day by the concerted action of organized labor, backed by the favorable judgment of society." It is general opinion that if the president insists upon legislation to the full of his recommendations, congress will be here for another two months. Meanwhile if the strike is precipitated members of congress are agreed that some drastic form of action will be taken, some short cut adopted that will convince both the railroad managers and the workmen that the country will not tolerate a nation-wide strike.
President Wilson is said to have under advisement a plan to charge the brotherhood leaders with instigating a conspiracy in restraint of intersate commerce if the strike order is not withdrawn by Saturday. It is known the advice of the attorney general's office has been sought on the subject.
Police Guard Women
East Liverpool, O.—Police have obtained no clew to the identity of the person or persons who stoned the homes of Mrs. John Anderson and Mrs. W. W. Sloan, wives of prominent merchants, to whom threatening notes have been sent in the past six weeks. The families live in adjoining houses. Mrs. Anderson recently was at tacked by an unidentified man after she received two notes. A week later Mrs. Sloan found a blackhand warning pinned to a screen door of her home. An armed guard has been main tained nightly at the two homes.
Fay Escapes From Pen
Atlanta, Ga. — Hobert Fay, said to have been a former German army officer, convicted of conspiracy against the United States in connection with minton plots in New York, escaped from the federal prison here with William Knobloch, another prisoner. Fay, Walter Scholz, his brother-in-law, and Paul Daeche were convicted in New York May 8 on charges of conspiring to sink steamships carrying munitions of war to the allies by attaching bombs to them. Fay was sentenced to eight years' imprisonment.
IN BELION DESPARTITO
OFFICER KILLED CHASING SHOOTERS
Shaker Heights Deputy Marshall Murdered While in Pursuit of Three Boys.
LATTER HELD BY AUTHORITIES
Green Hat Only Clew So Far Found;
Woman in the Auto Is Grazed
by Bullet From One of
the Boys' Guns.
Cleveland, O. — Death of a depdown in a wood northeast of the corner of Buckeye and Center roads, followed immediately after one of three boys had sent a rifle bullet through the wind shield of a passing automobile, causing the marshal and two other men to chase the three into the wood.
Protest Innocence.
Protesting innocence, two boys, one 15, the other 16, both with 22-caliber rifles, who were arrested just afterward, were held by Shaker Heights authorities. A third boy, 16, was arrested here later.
The problem that confronted Shaker Heights, Cleveland Heights and city police, all of whom were working on the case, was whether the shots that killed the deputy marshal were fired by one of the three boys or by a fourth person, a man whom two of the boys said they saw enter the woods.
The boys, one of whom, police said, admitted shooting through the auto windshield, all denied shooting at the deputy marshal in the wood. Their story was supported by the facts that the shots which killed the officer were from a 32-caliber automatic pistol, and that a green hat was found lying near where three or four empty pistol shells were discovered in the wood.
Grazed Woman's Head.
A bullet from the rifle of one of the boys went through the machine of C. A. Seeley, who was driving through Shaker Heights with his family, grazed the hand of his mother and shattered the windshield. Seeley stopped and chased the boys into the woods, when the policeman took up the chase and was killed.
The boys declared, police said, that from where they hid they saw a man going into the wood wearing a green hat such as was found at the scene, dressed in a blue suit and tan shoes. They said, police stated, that immediately after this man passed them, they heard shooting in the wood, and that then they went out to the road.
The boy picked up late in the evening at Scovill avenue and E. 14th street admitted, according to detectives, being with the two boys who had the rifles, but denied shooting.
ITALY DECLARES WAR AGAINST FORMER ALLY
Break With Germany Brings End to One of Strangest Situations in History.
Rome, Italy. — The official announcement of Italy's declaration of war on Germany as given out here follows: "The Italian government declares in the name of the king that Italy considers herself to be in a state of war with Germany as from Aug. 28 and begs the Swiss government to convey this information to the imperial German government."
Italy's declaration of war on Germany brings to an end one of the strangest situations recorded in the history of nations—the mysterious and unnatural retention of peace between these two countries for more than two years after the outbreak of the European conflict which burst the triple alliance and which resulted on May 23, 1915, in an open break between Italy and Austria-Hungary.
Though thrown into the maelstrom of a war against a world in arms by her Hapsburg ally, Germany has not been officially at war with Italy until that country now has made the long pected move.
Italy's action does not come as a surprise. It has been predicted, promised, threatened and even unofficially announced as often as Rumanian intervention on the allies' side, and this, too, is now expected to become an accomplished fact before many days have passed. The course the Italo-German relations have taken since Aug. 1, 1914, and the inevitable outcome was marked and foreshadowed by the following outstanding events: At the beginning of the war Italy renounced the triple alliance and declared for a policy of neutrality. On May 23 of the next year she declared war on Austria-Hungary, yielding to overwhelming pressure of public sentiment and rejecting sweeping territorial offers from her former ally.
Plan to Kidnap Box
St. Anthony, Ida.—Plans to kidnake naprow Lord Harriman, son of Mrs. E. H. Harriman, hold him for a ransom of $100,000, and in case this was not paid, to blind the boy and otherwise disguise him for life, have been frustrated by the arrest here of the parties to the plot.
Three men, Marion A. Lufkin, David McLoy and Ralph Zufelt, alias Alph Majors, are in jail charged with conspiracy to steal young Harriman from Pland Park, where he is spending his vacation, and hold him for ransom.

DARE TO DO YOUR DUTY.
"Let us have faith that right makes might, and in that faith let us have faith that dare to do our duty as we understand it."—Abraham Lincoln.
The editor of The Gazette thoroughly appreciates the very kind and encouraging expressions of the good friends, several of whom are represented in these columns today.
The same miserable segregation (in the Treasury department) complained of so bitterly months ago, has been inaugurated, in recent weeks, in the Army and Navy department at Washington, D. C., by the members of the Democratic Wilson administration.
Two futile invasions of Mexico and six separate and distinct policies on the question of permitting arms and ammunition to be sent into that country are included in the performance of the Wilson administration in its dealings with our southern neighbors in less than three years. It is this characteristic instability of the government that makes people want a change.
A southern democratic member of the lower house of Congress has introduced "a bill to prevent the enlistment of Negroes in the military service of the U. S." If there is anything insulting or harmful to our people some southern democratic member of Congress has not attempted since the elevation of Thomas Woodrow Wilson to the presidency, we certainly would like to know what it is.
After reading Will Edwin Smith's splendid letters to The Gazette from "old Mexico and down on the border"; it is easy to understand why the Mexicans hate the Americans (white) and why the American newspapers have failed to properly explain this hatred. The southernners on the border have tried to treat the Mexicans as they do our people but the latter would not and will not submit to it. This much is clear.
Rudolph H. Mack, Esq., of Cincinnati, is a Republican and a much better candidate for governor than Gov. Frank B. Willis who not only broke his voluntary promise to give the sixty thousand Afro-American voters of Ohio deserved and proper recognition but grossly insulted our clergy men of Cleveland when he ignored their protests, last year in February. Much more truth, along this line, can and will be told, later on, in this fall's campaign.
The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of a press-pass badge to the forty-seventh annual fair (Aug. 29 to Sept. 2, 1916) of the Colored A. & M. Association, Lexington, Ky. This event is of inter-state importance and interest, every year, and this time its management proposes to eclipse all former efforts. The number from this city and state that attend the fair each year will be largely augmented, this year, as a result of the "good times."
A Western editor says that mis-guided individuals who have been expecting that Charles E. Hughes would prove to be a cold proposition and therefore easy to beat are in for a shock that will make them think they have been hit by an uninsulated trolley wire. There is nothing cold about Mr. Hughes. He is about as intensely human a piece of humanity as ever captured the hearts of a crowd, and the more people in the United States he meets between now and November the more votes will be cast for him. As a campaigner he is a revelation. He likes his fellow beings, and they like him because they see he likes them.
Superintendent Davidson, of the Pittsburgh, public schools, went to that city from Washington, D. C. A young lady of the race, a Miss Fulpress, who ranked fifteenth (in a class of ninety) in the line for appointment as a teacher in the public schools of that city, is now fifth, but the outlook is not good because Supt. Davidson seems opposed to her appointment and to favor separate schools. However, our esteemed contemporary, the Pittsburgh Courier, has taken the proper stand and if our sensible people of that city will rally to its standard as they should, Pittsburgh as well as Cleveland will some
day have thirty or thirty-five Afro-
American teachers in its public
school
MANHOOD.
Life's best prizes are won, not by skill or strength, but by that grandest thing known on earth—manhood. Honorable, educated, active, cultivated manhood is to rule this world. Always there have been bad men, corrupted, degraded, but sharp and cunning, who have made great gains by great frauds, or crafty swindling, and have held some sort of position in the world in spite of their want of character, for there are parasites and money worshipers who honor and applaud the man of money without caring to know how he came by his possessions.
But These Are the Exceptions.
The true man is the thing most prized by the great world. True manhood is the wisest, sharpest, strongest, most clear-sighted, far-sighted contest in the battlefield of life. Manhood carries the sharpest sword, gains the truest success and wears the brightest crown. No one is, or can be, the best preacher, the best lawyer, the best physician, or the best business man, who is not truly, grandly, gloriously and unselfishly a man. If you would climb to the highest places, carry off the richest prizes, get the most enjoyment out of life and have the sublimest of old age, you must conquer the base elements of nature, you must have every atom of the dross of dishonesty squeezed, hammered, burned out, if necessary.
You must become as sound as 24-karat gold, as true as best steel. You must prove yourself as reliable as the course of nature, as incorruptible as sunlight, as pure and sweet in your personality as the breezes of heaven. You must scorn all menness, loathe all false pretenses, be afraid of every kind of dishonesty and hate a lie as you would hate the devil himself. You must determine stoutly to be what you would appear.
There is a premium on men like that. The great world, disgusted with frauds and pretenders and shams of all kinds, will know such a man as soon as he appears. It will prize him, honor him, reward him, make him famous and render him immortal.—Philadelphia Record.

Editor Gazette:—I can with pride say that I have been reading The Gazette regularly and, of late, with deep and renewed interest, and the following will explain the reason why: Shortly after arriving in Cleveland from my home in Mississippi, during the month of June, 1915, I was canonized in Cleveland and happened to be standing on Central avenue, near East 35th St., waiting for a subscriber of the paper. While standing there, I struck up a conversation with a man about The Gazette and its editor. We talked for a long time, and finally the gondolier knew the paper and its editor better than I did, and to make sure that I would understand, he added that he knew the editor when he was a schoolboy. Continuing he said "Mr. Smith is a fine fellow, alright, and has a good paper and I read it, but it is like this: he is a politician, and one who knows the state, and naturally he (the editor) is going to take care of himself. He will, of course, speak well of the governor, as he is doing every week, while the governor is doing something good for the race, but you will see (turning to emphasize) that he will not mention him when the governor does the job, and he promises to our people, because he (the editor) stands a show to get a good job by keeping silent."
Well, I have watched The Gazette editor very closely ever since. Yes, I watched him as a friend and as a minister. I watched, in the meantime hoping that when the time came for him to "show his colors" that he would prove to be "pure gold tried by the fire," fearless and uncompromising when the race's honor is at stake as he is known and believed to be from one end of this country to the other. Then to my heart's delight I noticed the bold headlines in the issue of The Gazette, dated March 18, 1858 (and since) which assured me for true that you ARE ONLY FOR THE RIGHT
Now, I do not want it understood that I gloried in the coincidence that raised so thick a saloon-dust that it stifed the religious influence of the Cleveland ministers upon the town's moral condition, at least, as far as the city is concerned, and so dense as to completely hide what was supposed to be the true form of our good-meaning(?) "State Chief Executive," but I am careful to have it understood that since the offense has come I am glad to say that I am not going to say "Woe unto him from whom the offense cometh," etc., etc.
This is one of the reasons for my renewed interest in The Gazette. Then, too, I wanted to see if my strange man really knew more about the editor of The Gazette than I did. He claimed. Sincerely yours for the right.

BIG LIMA LYNCH
MOB SEEKS NEGRO
Three Thousand Storm Jail in Search of Man Who Brutally Attacked Woman.
OFFICERS WERE POWERLESS
Citizens, Maddened by Brutal Assault,
Batter Down Prison Doors; Sher-
iff Removes Alleged Assailant
to State Hospital.
Lima, O.—A mob of 3,000 deter-
mined men stormed the county jail,
broke through the big front doors
and searched the cells, seeking a
blood victim—a negro—to avenge a
brutal assault on a farmer's wife in
the kitchen of her little home three
miles west of Lima.
Some time before the outer doors
of the jail gave way a closed automobile
whizzed into a darkened court
near the big building in the heart of
Lima, two huddled figures crawled
into the car, and the machine was off
like a racer through the streets to-
ward the open country beyond.
While the mayor of Lima, Balliss Simpson, was appealing to the mob to forsake its quest, at 9:30 p. m. Sherif Sherman Ely returned to the jail and the word spread that the negro prisoner was safe within the high fortress-like walls of the hospital for the criminal insane, three miles north of Lima.
Forced to Flee for Life.
Roaring its disbelief in the escape of the prisoner, the mob broke down the doors of the sheriff's residence and the official was forced to flee for his life through a rear door. With him, guarded by a police escort, went his wife and her sister, carrying Mrs. Ely's small daughter, who is seriously ill.
Meanwhile part of the mob, led largely by armed farmers from the neighborhood where the assault took place, broke into the courthouse, spread through the building, searching rooms, closets and vaults.
Part of the mob ascended to the clock tower of the courthouse, where 20 years ago a mob found a negro hiden and lynched him under similar circumstances.
The small police force and squad of deputy sheriffs were practically powerless.
"Automobiles!" cried many of the searchers. A score of machines were commandeered, and a part of the mob sped northward, declaring they would hunt the negro even behind the walls of the state insane institution.
While all this was taking place messengers from Lima City hospital were fanning the spirit of vengeance. They told of a woman near death from a terrible beating.
Refused Food. Makes Brutal Attack.
Mrs. John Barber, 24, a white woman, was the victim of an assault. She had answered a knock at the kitchen door of her farm home. A negro—a giant of a man—stood on the threshold. He begged for something to eat, humbly at first.
The woman refused him. He stepped in, uninvited. In the kitchen lay Mrs. Barber's year-old child, and the woman instinctively fled toward the sleeping baby.
The man pursued her. He swung his big fists. The woman crumpled on the floor. She tried to struggle to her feet. He hit her again, breaking her jaw, and as she fell he drew a razor and slashed her across the throat. She lay still now, her eyes almost battered shut, her face blue with bruises.
Through the door leading to the living rooms at this moment broke Mrs. Elizabeth Kelly, 76, mother of Mrs. Barber. Active despite her years, the woman few at the negro. Surprised, he dodged her and flew through the open door. The grandmother followed, crying out for help.
She followed the fleeing man down the road. He dodged into a woods and she lost him. She ran on until she met a farmer. She told him what had happened. Word was sent to Mr. Barber, at work in a far field. Word was sent to the county sheriff's office and to the Lima police.
Sheriff Ely and his posse arrived at the farm house and found groups hunting the woods and fields.
It was the sheriff himself who came upon a negro walking on the Erie railroad tracks within a few miles of the Barber home. The man became a object and unable to give a coherent statement in the presence of the armed men. The negro was taken to Lima City hospital, where police say he was identified by Mrs. Barber as her assailant. The mob finally captured Sheriff Ely and threatened to hang him unless he told where he had taken the negro. It is said he told the mob he took the man to Ottawa, 18 miles away. The crowd immediately started for that place.
Thousands in Parade
Kansas City, Mo. — Thousands of the veterans of the Civil war, not a man of them less than 65 years old, marched through the streets of Kansas City in regimental formation behind the tattered flags they had followed as defenders of their country in the annual parade of the Grand Army of the Republic.
A public holiday had been proclaimed in Kansas City and reviewing stands were erected throughout the business district. Hospital units were stationed at numerous corners.

GOV. FRANK B. WILLIS.
Now that the members of the Ninth Battalion, O. N. G., have been returned to their various homes the following from The Gazette of June 24, 1916, can be fully and properly appreciated:
NEGRO SOLDIERS PREPARING
CAMP FOR OHIO'S ARMY.
Ninth Battalion Rushes Preparations at Upper Arlington.
Columbus, O.—The four companies of the Ninth battalion located in Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus and Springfield, reported at the mobilization camp here today. These Afro-American companies were not included in the mobilization order issued by the war department, but were ordered here last night by Adjutant General Hough. It is understood that they are to be used in the work of preparing the mobilization camp for American troops who are expected to arrive Thursday or early Friday. With the assistance of the Ninth battalion work progressed rapidly today on the construction of the camp.
Negroes Will Return When Camp Is Pitched.
The Colored troopers, who were not included in President Wilson's call, will be relieved of duty as soon as camp is completed.-Cleveland (Daily) News, Wednesday, June 21 1916.
BLAME THE WILLIS ADMINISTRATION.
Two regiments (white) and the Ninth Battalion (Afro-Americans), O. N. G., were not ordered to mobilize, but the "Ninth" has been ordered to Columbus to do the drudgery of preparing the state camp for Ohio's white soldiers ordered to mobilize and prepare for service on the border, and in Mexico, too, if it is found necessary to send them there. This is being heralded throughout the state and the country by the daily newspapers greatly to the humiliation of all the manly and womanly of the race. This treatment of our soldiers—the "Ninth"
—by Gov. Frank B. Willis' boyhood and adult and adjutant general, Benjamin H. Hough of Delaware, just about makes the good red blood of every Afro-American's body boil. Thus again are our people of Ohio grossly insulted by the Willis administration. The local daily papers of Wednesday took pains to announce that when our four companies of the Ninth Battalion have finished the drudgery of preparing the state camp for the white soldiers "they will be sent back home" and not to the Mexican border where even the two white regiments not yet ordered to mobilize will no doubt be sent. If there is anything calculated to cool the "soldier" ardor of the members of the Ninth Battalion, it certainly ought to be the treatment they are receiving at the hands of the Willis administration through its representative, Adjutant General Ben. Hough —The Gazette of June 24, 1916.
Members of Co. D, the local part of the Ninth Battalion, told the editor of The Gazette, Wednesday morning, July 19, 1916, on their return to the city, that they were required to unload lumber and other wagons, build "shacks" for the commissary department and do other manual labor in addition to performing guard duty, etc.; that convicts from the Ohio penitentiary dug the trenches, etc., and that they were their (our soldiers') only assistants during their stay at Camp Willis. Also that on July 4th, (note the day) they "were moved from their place in Camp Willis over on 5th Av., a distant part of the camp, away from the white soldiers, as the result of friction arising from the latters' objections to their (our soldiers') visitors, largely ladies of color." Well, well, well! They all agree that Gov. Willis did a number of little things to please and coddle them into thinking well of him, if possible, but the members of the Battalion are at home now, will have plenty of time for careful thought, and can view all phases of this latest Willis episode without the miserable political or other influences that would if it could make them praise the man or men who are responsible for this most aggravating insult—offered them and through them to all the self and race respecting, manly and womanly Afro-Americans in the state of Ohio. Adjutant-General Ben. H. Hough was a Willis apoineen until almost within a week, and as chief executive of the state, the governor is responsible for the shameful and insulting misattirement of the Ninth Battalion that is felt, and keenly, too, by every loyal member of the race in Ohio.—The Gazette, July 15, 1916.
Really Mother's Fault.
Her grandma was visiting at the house and Lucille slept with her that night. The next morning grandma said: "Lucille, what makes you kick so? Why don't you lie still at night?" Lucille answered: "I can't stop, drandma, 'cause mother never teached me not to kick when I was little."

NEGRO YEAR BOOK—1916-1917.
The Negro Year Book for 1916-1917, the fourth annual edition, has been enlarged and improved. There are 60 more pages of matter than in the 1914-15 edition which contained 417 pages. This new edition has over 100 pages of new matter. The information contained in previous volumes has been brought through to date; 75 pages are devoted to a review of the events of 1914-15 as they affect the interests and indicate the progress of the race. The success of previous editions has encouraged the publishers to believe that the Negro Year Book is filling the need of a publication which impartially gives a review of current events and relates to our people and the same time provides a compact but comprehensive statement of historical and statistical facts arranged for ready reference. In its 475 pages one finds in a succinct form not only the important facts of history, but also a great mass of detailed information concerning present conditions and the progress of the country now presented and authority on matters pertaining to our people.

“Annie Laurie” of Famous
Qld Song Was a Real Person
Few of us ever think of the “Annie
Lanrie” of the famous old song ns a
real person, But she was a girl who
lived In Durnfries, Scotland, which Is
near Maxwelton, She was born about
1682, and when she died she was buried
in Dunscort churchyard.
This real Annie Laurie had a sweet:
heart, a Mr. Douglas, who wrote # song
‘about her, The words of the song he
wrote were not as beautiful as those
wwe think of in connection. with her.
The song with which we are familiur
was written from Douglas’ song about
70 years ago by Lady Jean Scott, a
member of one of the great families
in Great Britain.
In one of the institutions in Dum-
fries today there is the “last will and
testament” of Annie Laurie, And the
churchyard where she is buried Is
often spoken of by Carlyle in his
letters, for he was of that sume neigh:
borhood.
