Crowder also commended the board members and referred with pride to the fact that each one of them was a soldier who was serving his country without compensation. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25,1883 And Issued Every Week on Time Since WOODS, DILLARD AND SPERO That "Political Sensation" of a Few Weeks Ago Exploded! The statement has been made, by one who claims to know; that one Spero, who posed as a lieutenant of Benner, the democratic candidate for the council in ward H1, promised to secure for Sam Woods from Benner to be used in the interest of that patriotic Biblical candidate $250 or $300, at first. It was about this time that Roger called at The Ganzette office to see the editor and, finding him absent, left the following note: City, 9:21:17. Hon, H. C. Smith, Dear Sir: Mr. Woods said to tell you that he saw that fellow and that he is willing to do something to improve communication with him and put the proposition to him. He is willing to give about $250. Later on we understand that "that fellow" (Spero) dropped from $250 to $150. This was after the editor of the Gazette had not only refused to treat with Spero but had also withdrawn his support from Dillard because it was apparent that Woods, Charley Sutton and Spero would only make Dillard's candidacy a "stalking horse" for Benner's candidacy and could not afford the price of the probability of ELEG TING Dillard. This is the crux of the wide matter. When Woods and Sutton's political "hiring" with Spero made it impossible to ELEG T Roger, the editor of The Gazette would have nothing more to do with his candidacy. He was opposed to supporting a candidate who under the guidance of the very same candidate could not hope to do more than help Elect Benner, the Democratic candidate for the council in ward H1. Since Thomas, W. Byrd, 2158 Central Ave, informed The Gazette that although he was willing to be very active in Dillard's behalf, with Woods and Sutton, they never gave but any amount of money to the very same $150 which it is claimed Spero had promised to secure from Benner. This he said he felt keenly and considered anything but fair treatment. Our informant also tells us that the morning Woods went to Spero to get the $150, alleged to have been promised him for Dillard's candidacy, and he (Woods) was told he had been promised to draw from the race. Woods is said to have exclaimed, "the times blues the God give us men." And we agree with Sam. NINTH BATTALION TEAM AT TISKEGE Montgomery, Maa.-A. selected eleven from the Ninth separate battalion, Saturday, journeyed to Tuskegee and played the institute's gridiron warriors to a finish. The soldiers averaged about 65 pound. The officers of the battalion were with the wide arm and with the faculty of the institute, witnessed the battle. PETER H. Mr. Stoke has been a member of the Street Railway Committee of the City Council for four years, and continues a consistent advocate or three-fare fare. He is chairman of the Committee on Streets and advocates the extension of main thoroughfare; also the construction of sewers to allow them to make use of the sewer disposal plant, when it is built. Conciliation Stone is chairman of the Committee on Building Code, to provide better living conditions for all of our citizens, at the same time being careful not to put too much of a burden on persons desiring to build a home. Committee which passes on all expenditures of money used by the city to run it government. It is hardly necessary for The Gazette to call the attention of the in the Eid award to the fact that Mr. Stoke is always a loyal and consistent friend of the race who believes in DEXXO, for them and in terners. He was elected to the Council as it has been ever since. That is one reason why his re-election to that august body comes with a regularity that is most pleasing to his hosts of friends and why his re-election, next month, is practically assured. However, do not take anything for granted. Mr. Stoke works in all the office for Mr. Stoke and will all the other ones in ward 19 to be sure that you possibly can do it. OUR STATE BRAFIST CONVENTION The Delegates' Reports Show Progress Officers Flected Many Five Speeches Delivered Use Nearby, 500 delegates attended the state convention of our Baptists held at Mr. Haven church, this city, last week, many very prominent men and women being among the number and in attendance as visitors, some coming from the car with it. It was an exceptionally successful meeting. During the night, a three day meeting of the State Baptist Association, composed of men workers, closed with the election of the following officers: Pres. Rev. A. M. Thomas, Zanesville, Pa.; Rev. D. D. Phillips, treas. Rev. I. Carr, b of Columba; musical director, E. W. Curry, Ullam, maître, Rev. C. T. Iso, Nebraska. The eleventh annual meeting of the Women's Association was held, last Thursday and Friday Rev. A. N. Merriott of Republic preached the annual sermon in the evening.

U. most of the delegates leaving the city for their homes on Monday or Tuesday, loud in their praise of the hospitality extended them by Rev. C. A. Crable and members of Mt. Haven Hapiris Church. One of the most inter-attentive attendees was a session of the Q. B. C. was the man-aged father-in-law, who came from Pennsylvania to visit his daughter, Mrs. Crable, and family. OUR OHIO DRAFT QUOTA Columbus, O.—All except fourteen of the 200 men comprise Ohio's Afro-American draft quota will go to Camp Bowie, where they will be announced, Wednesday afternoon at the state house. Champaign county's seven men will go from Urbana, Sunday, and even from New Philadelphia, comprising the quota of local board no. 101. The men will go to any. These are the only exceptions to the Monday movement. WRIGHT'S DAVIS LETTER BAD Dr. Southard and the Hugh F. Taylor committee Explode it "Any report stating that vice conditions are better at the present time than at any time in the city's history is contrary to fact as far as I can see," Rev. H. D. Southard writes the Hugh F. Taylor campaign committee. The letter from the pastor of the Trinity Methodist church, Mudson avenue N. W, and New York State Candidate Taylor's committee in response to copies of a letter to Rev. E. R. Wright, secretary of Federated Churches, which the committee recently forwarded to 350 Cleveland ministers. In the recent police investigation, Rev. Mr. Wright sent a letter to Mayor Davis, purporting to come officially from the Federated Churches, in which he stated that vice conditions were being time within recent years". Claiming "that Rev. Mr. Wright was not authorized to speak for the ministers of Cleveland and that the statement in his letter to Mayor Davis is "contrary to fact," the Hugh F. Taylor campaign committee of 250 last week wrote Mr. Wright, asking for a conference with the Federated Churches to present the impression that the secretary's letter was sanctioned or approved by his organization. "At no meeting of Cleveland ministers I have attended has there been a vote of commutation or even a discussion of vice conditions." Rev. Mr. Southard wrote Mr. Taylor, committee. "I would not allow the impression to go out that Cleveland ministers thought conditions better unless they were given the opportunity to put themselves on record. It is to the average man a matter of opinion or political prejudice." Rev. Mr. Southard added, "witnessed at the police investigation, Rev. Mr. Wright admitted writing his letter to Mayor Davis after obtaining "over the telephone" the approval of Rev. A. Frank Houser, the mayor's pastor, and two lay members, of the Federated Churches. Following the letter to Mayor Davis, the captain committee to Rev. Mr. Wright, copies of which were sent to the 350 city ministers. Whereas, it is persistently charged and a matter of common opinion, this city, and repeatedly urged upon this committee, notwithstanding the recent efforts of Chief of Police W. S. Row. (1) That the practical, ordinary and decent restraints upon vice, essential and economy in the administration have been broken down in Cleveland to a degree that has become semalalms and alarming; (2) That through corrupt political influence, criminals have been able to obstruct justice and the successes of their liberal practices; (3)That gambling; unlicensed traffic in liquors and commercialized immorality are going on openly and flagrantly in certain sections to and within defrauding alderbois unparalleled; (4)That commercialized immorality has been allowed to extend into respectable residential neighborhoods to the detriment thereof, the innocence of the young imperiled, and the abuse, contempt and the prejudice and rights of upright citizens outraged; (5)That the present chief of police, with most of the forces under him, is seeking a proper restraint of these evils; (6)That the present administration and chief of police are out of harmony, to the detriment of police discipline and effective action; (7)That a full view of the facts has never been laid before you, an act of promuement published as coming from your body, denying these conditions, is incorrect and contrary to facts; (8)Therefore, we are instructed by the High P. Taylor executive committee to act for this body, with facts and data on this subject, is desirous of an early conference with your organization. Upon receipt of a copy of the force going letter, on behalf of the legal ministers, for the Minister's Alliance write the following communication which is self explanatory: Cleveland, O. October 19th, 1917 The Hugh E. Taylor Campaign Committee of 250. City. Gentlemen: in reply to yours of the 20th W. Minister's Alliance) are intently interested in the election of a good man for mayor of Cleveland. We want a clean business government. We want our city as clear of vice and immorality as possible. I am sure that I voice the desire of every colored minister in Cleveland. We have an M.D. date for next week and send a representative. I am sure we will give you a hearing. You may write me and I will call the ministers together. Yours truly, R. L. BAYLISS; Pastor Lester Memorial C.C. E. Church. Residence: 2188 E. Mst St. BEST FOR THE BLOOD--Puro Herbs. Sold only at Brown Drug Co. E. 25th St. and Central Ave. Ace. Vote for Stanley, A Republican THIS PLATFORM First—Adequate play grounds for the children, that they may not endanger their lives by having to play in the streets for lack of a safe and sanitary place where they can have their exercise and amusement, in perfect safety and not interfere with public traffic. It is committing a crime upon the rising generations not to furnish these conveniences, for their physical and mental development. They are as essential in their place as the school room. The muscles and nerves must have exercise and training along with the mental faculty. Let us not withhold from them these things because we were deprived of them in our childhood days. The more congested our ward becomes, the more necessary are these play grounds and, the more expensive the necessary space for them will become; so as a matter of economy and a valuable asset to train, the ground is purchased for these purposes the better. Let us consider it together. Second—A good sanitary bath house with a gymnasium for winter. Physical exercises for small as well as larger children and grown ups. To be free to all citizens of the ward; with the exception of the children for at a nominal price, just sufficient to cover cost, if they do not bring or furnish their own. There is nothing to compare with a bath house for sanitation and the good health of the community. In connection there could be constructed a hall large enough for ward meetings of citizens, where meetings could be held each month over the needs and improvements of the ward. Third—Another large city hospital is needed where working people could be taken care of without costing them a "king's ransom" for the accommodations they receive. With all the hospitals we have there are times when it is impossible to get men and women over the one or limited means, but need the service that can only be had there. Hundreds die every year in this city for lack of hospital accommodations. Fourth—A municipal court attorney who shall be at the service of working men and others with free advice on all court proceedings, and questions of law or other debts, that are small, but too much for a workingman or some poor woman to lose, yet they cannot afford to go to an attorney and pay him the fee that he would charge for his advice in such matters. Fifth—Letter street lighting is needed to give the streets of the eleventh ward. If we expect to decrease crime and make the ward safe to live in we must have more light on our streets. Well lighted streets are the foe to crime and the best protection a community can have against thugs, burglars and all kinds of misdemeasure. Let us have more light and less better streets and street car service. If elected to the council I shall use every effort to have the municipal lights extended to the eleventh ward so that we may have our share of the city service, the same as many of the police, fire and ambulance. If we can not get that, make arrangement with the Cleveland Illuminating Co. to furnish more lights on our streets. Let us have more lights any way. Sixth—shall endeavor to procure for the eleventh ward better police protection than we now have, to the end that we clean up our part of the city and make it a more desirable place to live and do business in. Two of the principal streets in the eleventh ward end abruptly at East Twenty-second street. If elected, I will allow in my power the Mayor Gerald Carr to direct the avenue cut through to town, which will help business, improve real estate values and traffic regulations. Other things that we are entitled to SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS ey, A Republican man in the Eleventh Ward by the Best Candidate SONS SEEKING THE POSI- NNOT GIVE HIM YOUR VOTE GIVE HIM SECOND—HIS STFORM te may be suggested from time to time t- and taken up for consideration by the as people of the eleventh ward and will receive my prompt attention. EDWARD STANLEY. In the matter of public positions Mr. Stanley assures The Gazette that, in event of his election, personal and political preference shall cease and that those deserving shall be elected as far as he is able to direct it; furthermore, intelligent Afro-Americans shall not be restricted to positions in the city jantor service, and at the garbage plant, but that our young men and women and older ones capable shall have higher and better positions, just as members of the various other classes of residents of the city are given, Give Mr. Stanley a vote on Nov. 10,—either a first, second or third choice vote. This much you can surely do in the interest of yourself, family and others of our people, residents of ward 11. DON'T VOTE FOR FLEMING He has Done Absolutely Nothing For Our People of Ward II. Our people of ward 11 have never nominated or elected Tom Fleming to the City Council. They have never wanted nor have they ever really accepted him as a candidate for or as a member of that body. In every instance he has been foisted upon him by Maurice Maskele, the local Jewish "Republican" boss. The effort to make it apparent that our people of ward 11 regard him as their candidate is a silly one, and no one can doubt the few Negro employees of the city garbage plant and janitor service who are trying to force an acceptance of his candidacy for reelection. It is interesting to note the rapidity with which they secured the withdrawal of that pseudo and meteoric Woods-Sutton-Sperro-Dillard candidacy. Two terms has Tom Fleming served in the City Council. What have the people done with the worst cars and street car service in the city; a section of the city that is notorious because of its low moral status, possibly the widest section in the city; gambling and bawdys house, buffet flats, speak-easy galore and about every form of vice imaginable rampant in the ward; throughout his terms of office, positively no effort to improve this sad condition of affairs and no protest from him, as far as we have been able to see him. He is worthy of special reference have been secured to the residents of ward 11, and those who wished to see him, invited to do so at his office over a saloon. This latter ought to appeal especially strong to our ministers and the members of their congregations in ward 11, as well as others in that vicinity. Much more of an indictment can be brought against Tom Fleming's candidacy or re-election. Council will not. Not only our people but all residents of ward 11 ought to be and doubtless are, familiar with the facts. This doubtless explains why his ignominious defeat on election day in November is so generally conceded. OFFICERS APPOINTED Fourteen From Ohio Green Army Commissions Washington, D. C.—Ohio Afro-Americans given commissions as officers in the army after training in the Seventeenth provisional training regiment at Fort Des Moines, Ia., were announced Wednesday, by Adj. Gen. McCain, with the camps to which they are assigned: Caints, officers' reserve corps—Leroy L. Godman, Columbus, to Camp Sherman; Phillips, Columbus, to Camp Sherman; First Lieutenants, National army—William L. Gee, Gallipolis, to Camp Grant; Howard C. Gilbert, Columbus, to Camp Grant.

Whip Colored Anteists BYRON, Ga.—Enraged by jealousy because of the purchase of automobiles by our people, as a result of sudden prosperity, "white" night-riders ("crackers") started whipping our men.

Member Ohio Legislature: 1894 to 1898, 1898 to 1898; 1890 to 1892 THE MARRIAGE is the oldest, and has the largest land base circulation, double that of any monarchy in the interest of Afro-American publics, in the state of Ohio, and competition with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWS-TEST AND BEST in the country. 10,000,000 Afra-Americans. 800,000 in Ohio. 25,000 in Cleveland. It is a noteworthy circumstance that when Congressman Hefflin, of Alabama, was mentioning names of persons whose course in Congress cast suspicion upon them, he named only Republicans, wheras the strongest foes of the administration's measures have been Democrats. Partisanship as usual. Knowing the vice conditions have grown to fearful proportions in the Central Avenue district, and under the Davin administration, we fail to see how it is possible for our ministers and church people to support Mayor Harry L. Davis for re-election. By the same token and for the same reason, how can they again support Councilman Tom Fleming whose office is over a saloon? At the city election, Nov. 6, the electors of Cleveland are to be asked by our police and firemen to amend the city charter so that all city employees may enjoy the benefits of an eight hour day. We should rally to their support, not only because we have men on the police force but because it is but right and just that we do so. Therefore, let all of us vote for the eight hour amendment to the charter to be submitted to electors Nov. 6. Under the leadership of "Carolina" Claude Kitchin, Democrat chairman of the Wayne and Means Committee, a clause was placed in the war tax bill exempting members of congress from paying the excess profit tax of eight per cent, on all incomes in excess of $6000 per annum. Congressmen get $7.50. It is not an inspiring example for Congress to exempt itself from the draft it was placing upon the incomes of others. Mr. Kitchin had probably so gotten in the habit of protecting the South from taxes that he, in this case, unconcealed his influence to protest Congressmen from the North as well as from the South. A POLITICAL RIP VAN WINNLEE Former Congressman Donohoe of Philadelphia, a Democrat, has discovered an issue. He demands that more offices shall be given to Democrats. He should read current history. In it he would find that Congress has created new offices by the thousand in the last few years, and that it is still creating them; that Wilson has named none but Democrats for those offices, and that he is still naming them; that Congress has appropriated billions of dollars for the purposes of war and peace, and that the administration has diligently sought out Democrats to spend that money. Mr. Donohoe, styles us as being a sort of a political Rip Van Winkle. He must have been added since the fourth of March, 1913. "PRESIDENT WILL NOT PERMIT The New York Times quotes Congressman Wilson as saying that "President Wilson, who is commander-in-chief of the army and navy, would not permit his expulsion from the House." 16 Hoffin even said this, it shown his distorted view of things. Mr. Wilson has nothing to do with the manner in which the House shall deal with matters affecting its personnel. The House is the sole judge of the election and qualifications of its members, and, by a two-thirds vote, it may impal any Representative. By a majority vote it may declare any seal vacant. We are not saying that the President cannot "influence Congress" as the vonBernstorf telegram would say, "as on former occasions, but it will not be in his capacity as commander-in-chief of the army and navy. It will be in his capacity as leader of the Democratic party and in his capacity as dispenser of the loaves and fishes to "deserving" Democrats. WOOD MAKES GOOD ANYWHERE Gene Lennard Wood has command of the division of the national army mobilized at Fort Riley, Kansas. The young soldiers who compose that division are to be congratulated. They will be trained under one of the most capable soldiers of his generation and one whose patriotism and courage are equal to his abilities. The administration, one may well believe, was most reluctant to give this command to Gen. Blood. Last spring he was taken away from the department headquarters at Governor's Island, where he had rendered such conspicuous service, and was given his choice between the isolated post at Honolulu or the newly created department with headquarters at Charleston, South Carolina. He chose the latter. When it was decided to locate the larger number of training camps in the Southern states and it was discovered that this would bring them within Gen. Wood's jurisdiction, the administration issued orders taking all authority over the camps from the department commanders and placing it in the hands of the camp commandants—an obvious slap at Gen. Wood, who happens not to be a "southerner." This added to the Charleston episode, brought about a storm of disapproval, which even the administration could not withstand—and Gen. Wood got a command. It is not the most important command, to be sure, but such is Gen. Wood's ability that he will make it noteworthy. THE SOUTH NEVER SATISFIED It seems impossible to do anything to please the South, except to make appropriations for it. The South has been opposed to arming Afro-Americans, evidently fearing what it so richly deserved from a people it continues to maltreat in almost every conceivable way. The apportionment of soldiers to be supplied under the selective draft was manipulated in such a way that the South would be called upon to furnish a much smaller number in proportion to its entire population than would be required from the Northern states. Then when mobilization began, the South protested against our troops being sent to Southern cantonments, although the South rejoiced to have by far the larger proportion of the cantonments located in that section of the country. Then the Provost Marshal issued a call for only white troops in the second quota and some of the Southern states find that this will take practically all of the "white" new subject to the draft leaving Afro-Americans at home. They are protesting again. Evidently the only way to satisfy them is to let the North furnish all the soldiers and pay all the taxes, and send only "white" soldiers to Southern cantonments for training. But the South is in control of the administration and it ought not complain. A Reporter Swears Soldiers Sh Negroes Fleeing Flames East St. Louis, Ill, Oct. 22—Testimony that during the massacre here July 2 a mob threw a Negro child into a burning house after it had escaped from the flames, was given at the congressional inquiry, today, into that wholesale murder, by Edwin Popkess, a reporter for a St. Louis newspaper. He said he also saw four or five national guardenshoot and kill two Negroes who ran from a burning house. Paul Y. Anderson, another reporter, described the housing conditions of many Negroes in East St. Louis as unsanitary. John W. Martin, general manager of Martin's packing plant, said his plants had a water leak and present at the meeting of the East St. Louis Chamber of Commerce on the afternoon of July 2, after the mob had begun its fendish work. He said the mayor told the meeting that the situation had got beyond his control. "STUCK TO THE BOYS" Montgomery, Ala., Oct. 18, 1917. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor Gazette (Telegram) Cleveland, Ohio. Dear Sir—Major John C. Fulton, of the Ninth Ohio Battalion, a resident of your city, just informs me that the clothes, etc., for the Ninth arrived in a hurry, yesterday. Buckley. (Former State Fire Marshal Bert C. Buckley of Dayton not only fought hard for and contributed money toward the purchase of clothes and shoes for the Dayton' company (C) of the Ninth, in such dire need when in camp near Soldiers' home, Dayton, but it seems went clear to Montgomery "with the boys" to see that his fellow townmen of color were properly treated there.

Follicle Gogtie, Dear Sir! I am lathing a pleasant time here and getting along nicely. I have a little news for you. Some boys of the 9th battalion and a hundred other soldiers of Ohio in Camp Sheridan at Montgomery, had a game of football here, the other day. The Ohio boys were beaten, much to my sorrow but they had good luck. The score was Tuskegee 7, Soldiers B. Sarret. Harry Walker of Cleveland made several nice plays but the Tuskegee boys had it over them. They toured here in an ansti from Montgomery. Here are some of the names of the officers who came: Major Fulton, Captain P. M. Johnson, Rudd, Mallory, Greene, and Caldwell; Lautenants Stolen, Dongill, Cox and Ellis.

Civil service commissioners, Wednesday, appealed to Cleveland men to take examination for appointment to the police and fire departments. Council ordinance authorizes addition of 300 policemen, Jan. 1. Wednesday, there are additional vacancies. Safer Sprotty said in a letter to Garner he been lost thirteen military service and unusual number of resignations. Here is a glorious opportunity for many of our young men. In an effort to obtain men needed to fill vacancies in the fire and police department, Public Safety Director Sprosty probably will ask the civil service commission for a ruling which would make eligible for appointment any man in Cuyahoga county filling civil service commission. Policemen and firemen receive about $1,000 a year. Examinator fill more than thirty vacancies in the city service have been announced for Oct. 23 and Oct. 27 by Kline. The first examination will be for junior clerks. Successful applicants will receive a starting salary of $600 a year. On the 27th junior stenographers will take examinations for positions paying an initial salary of $200 a year. There are at least 1,000 of our young men, in the city, working as elevator conductors, waiters and porters who are able to pass these examinations. Here are splendid opportunities to get better-paying and permanent positions, that should be available to you. There are positions in the Post Office are also "going a begging." Wake up and get busy. Take the examinations. Our young women should "get after" the young men and urge them to try for these and other positions open. Our ministers should call their congregations' attention to these openings. Examinations for positions as stenographers and typewriters in the government service are held, every Tuesday, in Cincinnati and other cities. The places pay $1,000 and $1,200 a year at the start. All persons over 18 years of age can take the examinations and are urged by the government to do so, especially women. ALL who pass the examinations are certified for appointment, says the Hon. John A. McLennan, president of the U. S. Civil Service Commission, Washington, D. C. Here is another splendid opening and opportunity for our ambitious and energetic young men and women of intelligence which should be taken advantage of. We notice that Harry Davis is the favorite in the betting. Some other favorites that we recall are: John L. Sullivan, in his fight with Corbett; Corbett against Fitzsimmons; Fitzsimmons, against Jeffries; Jeffries, against Jack Johnson. The efforts of Fleming supporters to draw the editor of The Gazette into the Dillard - Benner - Spero - Woods - Sutton eleventh war, political mess will fail for the very good reason that we refuse to be so placed. The publication in The Gazette of Sept. 29,17, in which we announced our refusal to further lend aid to Dillard's candidacy which had been lowered, under the direction of Sam Woods and Charlie Sutton, to that of being but a "stalking horse" for Benner's (democratic) candidacy, made clear our position, and also explains our refusal to listen to Roger's plea for a move to The Gazette editor with Mr. Benner that Saturday morning, Sept. 29, 17. Meantime, let all voters in that war opposed to Fleming and Benner concentrate their voting strength on Edward Stanley, Republican candidate for the city council, and thus defeat both Benner and Fleming and elect Stanley who is far and away the best of the several candidates for the city council in the ward.

SIKUS TEMPLE IS ERECTED IN TANK Greatest Fighting Creed of Hindu Races Had Odd Origin. The city of Amritsar in British India is the religious center of the Sikh faith, and as such it gains a high degree of interest and distinction. The Sikhs are known all over the British empire as the best of the native Indian fighting men. They have done loyal service on every battlefield where England has called on her native troops, and they are immensely proud of their record and their fighting ability. They are perhaps the most militant people in the world. The city Amritsar was built by the Sikhs, to serve as headquarters of their church. The name itself signifies "Pool of Immortality" in reference to the great tank in the center of the town. In this tank is an island, and on the island stands the Golden Temple of Amritsar, which is to the Sikhs what Solomon's temple was to the ancient Jews, and what the Tome of the Prophet is to the Mohammed today. The Golden temple is so called on account of its burnished copper dome that gleams with a dull flame in the fierce Indian sun. Beneath it, the holy men, or gurus, of the Sikhs expound the sacred books. These gurus are old men, and the fighting Sikh pays all devotion, but his real veneration is for the sword. The origin of the Sikhs is a good indication of the kind of men they are. The creed had its birth in comparatively recent times, when the Punjab was chafing under the heavy hand of the Mongol conquerors. A certain man of pugnacious temper grew weary of the oppression and decided to raise a small band to fight for freedom. He drew his sword and stood shouting in the market place, calling for volunteers. The people thought he was mad, and caressed him, but at last another fighting man, tired of servitude, volunteered. The first man concealed him in a secret place, and returned to the market place after smearing himself with the fresh blood of a sheep. Again he called for volunteers, but the people thought he had killed the first one, and fled. But at last he got another volunteer. Again he concealed him; again he smeared himself with blood; again he called for recruits. By this system he only got those who thought they were going to certain death, and did not fear it. When he had collected a dozen men by this system he put himself at their head and they sallied forth to rout the Moslem oppressors. Thus the Silkhs had their origin in battle, and in battle they have maintained themselves ever since. They furnish today some of the most loyal troops in the British empire. BAYEAUX TAPESTRY IS BOTH ART AND HISTORY. Gives Striking Picture of the Far-off Days. The Bayeaux tapestry is one of the most interesting bits of combined art and history in the world. It furnishes a striking picture of the life and spirit of the far-off days in which it was worked. The French treasure it above all their other historical relics, and the world admits that it cannot be prized too highly. Volumes have been written in attempts to prove that it was worked ten years earlier or ten years later than the usually accepted date. The tapestry is a thin scroll of linen, over 200 feet long and nineteen inches wide. Down the immense length of it is worked with an unequalled combination of patience and art the history of William the Norman in his conquest of England, with a few events from contemporary history thrown in for good measure. It is supposed to have been worked under the personal direction of the wife of the conqueror, by noble ladies of the realm—an interesting sideline on the life of the women of that time, for the tapestry is obviously the result of years of labor. The work was done by laying threads of colored woven side by side to form the designs and figures, and these threads are bound down by cross stitches on the background of fine linen. With this crude method for delineating line and color, results of high artistic merit were produced. The tautness is kept in a roll, and he who is fortunate enough to have it unrolled for his benefit will note that the first few feet and the last have been harshly dealt with by time, so that the design is scarcely decipherable. But only a few feet from the beginning is a portrait of William himself, that is well preserved. The long story is told down 200 feet of linen with a wealth of detail, and above and below a border of allegorical designs, whose exact significance is still disputed. It is certainly a piece of work representing infinite care and labor, and one can only hope that the ladies whose husbands were away subduing the Saxon found some enjoyment in the task. The Limit Madge—Charlie tells me that football isn't as brutal as many believe. Marjarie—the Games I've seen haven't been half as bloodcurdling as the college yells. PRJUDICE "Any predator whatever will be imprisonable if those who do not share in it themselves truckle to it and batter it and accept it as a law of nature."—John Stuart Mill Notwithstanding the very general impression that the cowboy's vocation is about gone, and that he is a vanishing type, the few remaining specimens of which have gone into vaudeville, there is, in fact, quite a brisk demand for the service of the cowboy in many parts of the world. In Australia, South Africa, Northwest Canada and South America the cowboy will find a job open to him for a long time to come. When one comes to think of it, it is a little surprising that some enterprising Yankee has not long ago hit upon a plan for supplying the foreign demand for this distinctively American institution, but for once American enterprise has been outdone. At Shepperton-on-Thames, almost in the heart of England, one may see any day now real cowboys performing wonderful feasts of horsemanship—picking up handkerchiefs and hats at full gallop, riding bucking "bronches," and doing other acrobatic performances. One may see the Colt and the Winchester used in the most expert fashion, and the lasso manipulated by past masters of the art. There, at night, is the bivouac and camp fire, and the story telling and good fellowship, and after that the saddle for a pillow and the blanket for a couch. And this is not Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show. It is the "Imperial School of Colonial Instruction," from which are graduated cowboys. The need of such an institution was conceived by two Englishmen — Captain Morgan, who was an orderly under General French in South Africa during the Boer War, and was a member of the famous mounted police of Northwest Canada, and M. French, who was a member of Dunlop's Scouts and of the First Regiment of Australian Imperial Bushmen. The idea of the founders of this institution was to train selected men for cowboy life, and equip them thor- EASTERN oughly for the service in the particular country to which they expected to go. The course of study at the Imperial School of Colonial Instruction occupies six months and is somewhat encyclopedic. Captain Morgan is the chancellor and around camp fire has charge of the department of music, being an expert banjo player. French presides over the chair of riding and is the favorite with the "boys." Captain Morgan has charge of the department of war and teaches aspirants for the cowboy life how to use the Colt and the Winchester. Welsh, a cow-puncher from Idaho, is the professor of the lasso, with "Navajo Bob" for an assistant. And there are other students and instructors. The students in the school are taught the art of breaking horses and caring for them. They are taught cowboy cookery, how to locate themselves when lost, acquiring, carpentry, the construction of barracks and fortifications, how to pack the packanimals, harness making, elementary medicine and other similar things. It is the aim of the school to reproduce at Shepperton on Thames as nearly as possible the actual environment of the particular colony for which the student is destined, and he accordingly is familiarized with all the peculiarities of each country by the exact reproduction of the houses, stables, corrals, the tools with which he will have to work and the food on which he will have to live.

Hamilton street, Cleveland, was once classed as the toughest street in the city but was cleaned up. A gentleman told me it was getting bad again. As I live near the street I went over a few days ago to see how things looked. I met an elderly colored man and he pointed out some bad houses and as I walked on a colored unfortunate in a doorway called to me, saying, "Want to come in, dear?"

Zion Cong church, Sunday afternoon. Interment at Oberlin. Mrs. Brown was taken ill, Monday evening, when in a street car en route home from a lodge entertainment where she had eaten something that brought on an attack of acute indigestion. Her nearest relative in the city is Mr. Elisha Freeman, a step-son. A sister resides in Oberlin. They have the earnest sympathy of many friends. A Mr. Brown, no relation to Mrs. Jackson, who was injured recently, and worked for a street car company, died at her home, Monday, leaving a $1,000 accident insurance policy. A fire, Tuesday night, in E. 39th St., "wilfred out" the lives of two children, it is said. Have you ever heard what City Treasurer Harry L. Davis (some years ago) said in the hearing of Mr. Thomas Graves (white), a local business man, when the matter of the appointment by him of an Afro-American to a clerkship in that office was mentioned to him (Davis)? Ask Mr. Graves, the editor of The Gazette, Arthur T. Abbot and scores of others in this community Mr. Graves has told. We cannot print it or we would do so. Every member of the race in the city ought to know this, as many do now. You know it for and for mayor when you now know it for and for will understand why he has steadfastly refused to appoint a single Afro-American to a clerkship in the city hall, and why other members of the race who have won positions in the city's service, in civil service examinations, have been refused them. The Maschke-Davis faction are only fooling Alex, Martin, Esq, and others, if they are gullible enough to believe it will back his candidacy for judge, at the coming election. The Davis administration will do nothing of the kind and we ought not to be foolish enough to expect it from individuals who refused us an assistant police prosecutor "because our candidate was colored," refused to appoint a member of the race to even a clerkship in the city hall, refused "Jim" Snyder and others positions they won in civil service examinations solely "because they are colored," and so on to the end of the long chapter. The Maschke-Davis faction is trying to fool Martin and all of his friends in order to get their support and votes for Mayor Davis and his "state" candidates. Don't be so easy; don't be fooled by the prejudiced Maschke-Davis faction. It is willing that "Negroes" work in the garbage plant, "cuff" cuspidors and the like, and that is about all. To can the climax they try to foist "Starlight" Boyd, and, his first lieutenant, Tom Fleming, on us as local political leaders. LORD! HAVE MERCY! How do you like it? Most of our employees of the garbage plant secured their appointments under Mayor Baker. Mr. Thomas Good of Columbus, Mrs. H. L.

Four months ago John McDonald became a Cleveland policeman. Last week Thursday he became an Eric railroad brakeman. He abandoned his blue uniform that night. The vacancy he left in the police department hasn't been filled. Worse yet, there are 330 similar vacancies in the department which city officials vainly are hoping young men of Cleveland will agree to fill. Cleveland's policemen are as follows: Patrolmen: First six months, $82.30 a month; second six months, $88 a month; second year, $1,100; third year, $1,214; fourth year and thereafter until promoted, $1,344. Sergeants, $1,500. Lieutenants, $1,600. Detectives, $1,600. Captains, $2,300. Is Councilman Tom Fleming for or against the saloon? It might be well, at this time, for our Ministers' Alliance and their and other churches and clergymen to "smoke him out" and find out where he stands on this all important question. You know his office is over a saloon. Make him declare himself on this question, if you are really sincere in your agitation of it. The boys say "Starlight" Beed, Tom Fleming's obie under Maurice Mashek, has been riding around ward 11 in an auto with Benner, the democratic candidate for the city council in that ward, asking second choice votes, just like he did two years ago.

Poultry Yard at 33rd St. & Ducks for Sale reasonable W. W. MASSENGALE, Proprietor Ideal Rooms for Gentlemen All Modern Improvements THEY WORRY NOT AS THEIR ISLANDS ARE SNATCHED BY INDUSTRIOUS FOLKS. Live by Fish of Rivers and Pottery Skill of Their Wives. The Fiji islands abound in reputation. To our grandparents they were the last word in barbarism, a simile for anything at once remote and terrible, a place where missionaries got stewed — by the cannibals — and clothes were worn not at all. The general impression of the South Sea islands as a wild and degenerate part of the world was softened and illuminated by the writings of Mark Twain about Hawaii and by Robert Lewis Stevenson"s essays from Samoa. But no one wrote anything important about the Fijians, and that is why the islands and people today are so very different from what you would expect to find them. The Fijians are not only no longer savages and cannibals, but they are fast disappearing altogether. Hindus, Englishmen and Samoans are the toilers of the islands. The fierce Solomon islander is seen here, too, but he is more apt to be hunting your laundry than your head. The Fijian, still distinguished by the frizzled aureole of his hair and the scantiness of his attire, is a humorous good natured loafer. His native island is rapidly being taken away from him by more industrious peoples and his race is dying out, but these things worry him not at all. He lives by the fish of the rivers and the wild fruit of the jungle and by the skill of his wife in pottery and other handicrafts. He has given up, cannibalism in deference to popular opinion, it is true, but in other ways he still lives his life much as he pleases, which is more than most of us ever achieve. STIRLING CASTLE EPITOME OF SCOTLAND'S CHIVALRY Gray Pile Has Seen History In Mak ing for Centuries. Stirling castle in Scotland stands on one of those high commanding pinnacles of rock about which battles have been fought since men began to band and arm against each other. It rears up from a plain with forests clustering about its base and struggling for foothold on its steeper faces, while a winding road goes up the other side—a road down which many came in the bygone days of chivalry. Stirling castle looks across wide windy spaces to the blue Lomond hills on one side, and the Grampians on the other, while to the west the peaks of the Highland are visible. It is fanned by a fresh and never resting wind. It may well be that the inspiring air and outlook from Stirling castle had much to do with the heroic quality of the battles that were fought for its possession. For the actions that have taken place here are an epitome of the military history of Scotland, and nearly all of the greatest Scot warriors have been here engaged. Here was fought the battle of Cambuskenneth in 843 by means of which Kenneth made himself king of a greater Scotland. Here William Wallace with 1,000 men beat the 5,000 English under the Earl of Surrey in 1297. Here Wallace was beaten the next year. In 1313 the famous battle of Bannockburn was fought at the foot of Stirling hill, and Bruce established Scotland against 100,000 English, Irish and Gascons, though he had but 40,000 followers. Here James III was stain and here Prince Charlie scored one of his great victories. Here in a word is a bit of soil steeped in Scotch blood and Scotch memories. KILLS GROUND SQUIRRELS. Device is Perfected to Destroy Devastating Animals. It has been estimated by the government that $10,000,000 worth of crops are annually destroyed by ground squirrels in the United States. Besides, these animals are said to transmit such diseases a the bubonic plague. To make war upon them, therefore, an unusually handy and effective device has been invented by Irving D. Charlton and Prof. W. T. Shaw of the department of soology. State college of Washington. It consists of a circular container which is filled with some poisonous liquid such as carbon bisulphide. A handle is geared to a suction fan in the device. As it is turned the fan causes a current of air to enter the opening formed by the inner wall of the circular container. The air current strikes against a perforated disk which is mounted on the fan shaft and which rotates with it. The air is then reflected and flows towards the outer rim of the disk, some of it going through the perforations into the liquid in the container and some of it going through the wetted perforations nearer the top of the device. The air then proceeds along towards the disk, carrying some vaporized liquid with it. On reaching the fan the mixture of vaporized liquid and air is forced by the fan down the discharge pipe. — Popular Science Monthly. Conditions in Arizona.

Quarantine and High Sea Often Prevent Travelers' Landing. Jaffa is a historical old Biblical city immersed in a common place present of uncleanliness, congestion, petty commerce and fearful and wonderful Turkish officialdom. Practically all travelers in the Levant and Palestine sightseers pass through Jaffa, for it is the port of Jerusalem, where one lands if arriving by boat from Greece or Egypt, and few such travelers carry away any notably pleasant impressions from the city by the sea. Very often you are lucky to land in Jaffa at all. The port authorities may had laid a quarantine against goods or passengers embarked from Alexandra—this happens not infrequently—and in such case you must voyage up and down the coast of Palestine until the quarantine flag is lowered. Or else the seas may be too high for your boat to make a landing, and continue so until the patience or the authority of the captain is exhausted, in which case you will also get a long sea voyage than you bargained for. If the elements and the health authorities are both in favorable mood at the same time you can land in the old city that flourished in the days of Solomon. The quarantine regulations may give you the impression that Jaffa is run on sanitary principles, but the city itself quickly dispels your illusions. Apparently the local government is stricter about imported danger of disease than the home-grow variety. Jaffa is no worse than any other Levantine port, neither is it noticeably better. Few travelers stay any great white in Jaffa, and as a result accommodations are of the sketcher. You may find yourself in an Asiatic hotel, in a monastery, or in the house of some hospitable European if there are an unusual number of strangers in the city. The shortness of your stay is no matter for great regret. Jaffa today is a city almost purely commercial. You carry away an impression of narrow and twisting streets badly in need of a corps of white wings, of mean houses and an occasional imposing mosque; of a population at once madly energetic in trade and constitutionally fatalistic, at the same time shrewd, avaricious and good natured. Fellins Considered Sacred and Were Worshipped in Olden Days. An interesting volume on "The Place of Animals in Human Thought" has just been written by the Countess Evelyn Martínengo Cescareco, who shows us that the life of the meanest animal is full of mysterious and uncomprehended possibilities. The beast is not merely the servant of man: he is his friend and ally. He occupies a complementary place in the great scheme of creation. Such a conception of animal life is a com- ```markdown ``` Egyptian Cat Preserved in Bronze. monplace with many of the older religions. It has permeated the philosophy of the east to so great an extent that the devout Indian will not will injure ingly injure a fly or a worm, lest he invoke divine retribution. In ancient Egypt cats were considered sacred and were worshipped. One of these Egyptian cats, preserved in bronze, in the collection of the French ambassador at Rome, forms one of the illustrations in the volume and is reproduced here. Hypnotized Witnesses. The medico-legal relations involved by the practice of hypnotism have several times been discussed in the courts of the United States of America. Quite recently in the case The State vs. Lxum, it has been decided that the statement by a witness on cross-examination that she had been thrice hypnotized by the prisoner is admissible as affecting the credibility of her evidence. What counsel sought prove was that she was then and were the subject of a post-hypnotic suggestion. It is admitted that proof of such a mental condition must be very difficult for, the judge, whose function it is to decide the competency of a witness, would have to consider many pertinent facts. Once, however, the state of post-hypnotic suggestion is established, there can be little doubt that a witness so obsessed should be ruled unable to testify on behalf of the party responsible for that condition. It must be remembered that possible actions of the victims of suggestions a longue echeance are still hotly debated in the French schools of hypnotism; at the Salpêtriere they hold that the educated moral sense is not annulled by a criminal suggestion; at Nancy they have several practical, if reprehensible, illustrations that when hypnotized the mind does not revolt at a suggestion which leads practically to the performance of a misdemeanor or a crime.—London Lancet.

Three months of that drastic home-invading law evaporated Prohibition sentiment so fast that the people of that State decided Prohibition is not all the paid Prohibition agitators say it is. The action of the people of Iowa in repudiating constitutional Prohibition is a straight tip to Ohio voters. Ohio wants none of the Bone Dry brand of Prohibition any more than does Iowa.
