The past week here has not been so lively as usual. Everybody seems to be in a more or less business mood. As the hard winter is about over, everyone is busy doing that which could not be done sooner.
The people had only one treat. They did some enjoyable laughing at the Alabama minstrel show. The performers kept everybody tickled to the highest notch from the time the curtain raised until it went down. There were about five hundred of our people in attendance.

Doings of the "Optimistic G"
The men of this outfit say that they have never absquatulated an opportunity to compete with any of the sporting clubs in the regiment. They say they have men to represent their organization in every variety of army sport.
The expert pistol team of the troop says that it cannot be defeated. The troop has a greater number and better expert pistol shots than any similar outfit in the regiment. The names of the members of the team are these: Sergt. Davis, Corps. Polindexter, Broadnear, Cooper and Parker; honorary members, Captain Christian and Lieut. Amory.
The troop's baseball line-up has just recently been organized. Nevertheless it is made up of old players who, in all probability, are almost certain to make good. Their names and places on the team are as follows: Thomas and Montgomery, pitchers; Sergt, Leonard, first base; Brewer, second base; Harrison, third base; Conway, catcher; Dorson, right field; Flewellen, left field; Broadneax, center field; Prophet, short stop.
The troop also has a pool team that challenges. Its manager, Corp. Pointexter, is one of the star players on
the regimental team. When the corporal is feeling good, it is common for him to run 15 balls before stopping. The following are the names of the players: Poindexter, Navasota Kid, Country Kid, and Bad Hatchet. They say they will bet from one to one thousand on their team.
Cook Ellis Harris, better known as Kid Sneed, gave up his job with Bud and accepted his kitchen police again. He is a great sport, but in trying out some of his new stunts down in sportville he was caught up with.
Sergt. Wilson, another one of the troop sports, came in Tuesday morning before last with a black eye. On being asked how he got it, he said that he fell off the street car. But the way the boys found out that his

eye was blackened in a different way from that which he gave out, they inquired around and learned that he had been involved in a flistic combat with two civilians in the city. The sergeant also has a swollen lip. He got that kissing—not a girl, but a man's fist, so says H. C.
The sergeant is going to take the civil service examination for saddler in the quartermaster's department when he is discharged. His many friends wish him success.
The five oldest soldiers in the troop are Sergt. Cager, Bowens, Walker and Rushingbo.
The following is a merry thirteen that has nearly thirteen years in the service: Sergt. Davice, Taylor, Williams, Atkerson, Broadneax, Mims, Lewis, D. Smith, Wells, Hays, H. Davis, Patterson and Holmes.
The Troop G Athletic club will hold a field day on June 5th. The morning events will be the running high jump, the broad jump, shot putting, the 100-yard dash and the 220-yard dash. The afternoon events will be wrestling by Kid Baker and Ollie Thomas, two boxing bouts; Corp. Poindexter versus Brown, both light heavyweights. This contest will go ten rounds under straight Marquis of Queensbury rules. The wind-up will be a bout between Battlel Johnson, recently of Boston, and Kid Conway. This fight is scheduled for 15 rounds. Each one is confident of winning over the other, but both are bad bettors.
Kid Conway issues a challenge to anyone in the army or navy at 133 pounds.
First Sergt. Cager retires in a very few days. His papers are in Washington, D. C., now.
This is all for Troop G this week
Next week we will visit Troop H.
Mr. Fred Dixon of the hospital corps is working at his trade in the tailor shop at the post hospital. He solicits your patronage.
Mr. Cunningham of the corps had a narrow escape from being run over by a street car last week. While crossing the track almost in the direction in which the car was moving, the hind wheel of his wagon was just brushed while the car was moving at nearly full speed.
Sergt. and Mrs. Vaughn have moved from the city into the post, taking Sergt. Henderson's former quarters.
Trumpeter McCoy of Troop I challenges any 170-pound boxer. He says he would like also to meet some of his old friends of Denver. Corporal Johnson of this troop came into the barracks a few nights ago about 12:30 and acted as if he owned them. For doing this he was taken before the summary court officer and caused to forfeit some of his pay. Sad Sam of the troop made one of his famous skirmish runs the other day, which resulted in a total score of ten.
Mr. Higginbotham, of Troop A, has just received a letter from home stating that his sister Nettie is so sick that the doctors have given her up.

Informer Advises Female Voters.
We hope the colored women in the several states where suffrage is conferred will show a spirit of independence in the casting of their votes, says the Detroit (Mich.) Informer. The mistake the colored men have made in their politic affiliation in many instances has been a detriment. Remember, there are good men and women in all parties.

MEN'S PROGRESSIVE CLUB.
The Men's Progressive Club of Central Baptist church, composed of members and friends of the church, is preparing to entertain the public in an unusual way on June 27 by giving an absolutely free entertainment, refreshments and all, by way of thanking the public for, its generous treatment of the club ever since it has been organized. The club is now four years old with seventeen active members. It has been a strong factor in the church life of Central and has done an exceptional work in helping it financially. For instance, it was the Progressive Club that gave the diamond ring contest a few weeks ago that netted nearly $100 for the church. It has always gone in for high class entertainments, and no what it intends entertaining free, it means to make its past record the guide for the future.

CROWDS THRONG NEW EDIFICE
War Secretary Speaks at Dedication of Y. M. C. A.
ABILITY OF THE RACE SHOWN.
Completion of Magnificent $100,000
Structure at the Nation's Capital Reflects Credit Upon Management, Architect and Mechanics—All Fighting Under One Flag, Says Stimson.
By R. W. THOMPSON,
Washington.—An immense concourse of people, which extended a block in each direction from the structure, witnessed the recent formal dedication of the new $100,000 home of the colored men's branch of the Young Men's Christian association, located at 1816 Twelfth street northwest, in the heart of the most populous section inhabiting our people in this city. It had been planned to hold the exercises in the gymnasium; but, the crowd swelling to unexpected proportions, it was decided to conduct them on the front portico of the building.
On account of the unavoidable absence of President Taft in Ohio the place which he was to have filled as principal speaker fell to the lot of the Hon. Henry L. Stimson, secretary of war. Mr. Stimson dwelt at length upon the necessity for moral training, supplemented by intellectual and physical culture and supported by a practical knowledge of the professional, industrial and gainful callings that give ability to one's duty as a part of the civic compact. Everything that went to make the well rounded man of affairs could be given an impetus by active identification with the broad gauged work of the Young Men's Christian association, and he urged colored young men to take advantage of the golden opportunity that was here presented to them.
A highly significant portion of his remarks was that in which he referred to the fact that it was through the intervention of President Taft that Mr. Julius Rosenwald was persuaded to donate $25,000 toward the cost of this magnificent structure. Said Secretary Stimson in part:
"You know how President Taft showed his interest in developing the colored branch of the Y. M. C. A. in the District by contributing generously to the building fund. He was instrumental in having Mr. Rosenwald include the colored branch of this city in his sphere of $25,000 benefactions, which went far to hasten the completion of your beautiful and admirably appointed Christian home. Mr. Taft has shown time and again his deep interest in the colored race and in the Y. M. C. A. and other uplifting movements.
"President Taft is more free from class feeling than any man I have ever known of despite any reports to the contrary. He believes in equal opportunity for all, and especially for those who have not had the same advantages as others. Were it possible he would be here to tell you this himself, and he much regrets his inability to be present.
Proud Achievement For the Negro Race "The erection of this building is something for the colored race to be proud of," continued Secretary Stimson, "designed as it was by a colored man, built largely by colored hands, and with money contributed by colored people. It shows that the race is capable of accomplishment much if given the opportunity. It is also significant that gifts of white men and of people not connected with the Christian religion helped in a large way to make the completion of this building possible. "Jullus Rosenwald, a Hebrew, of Chicago gave evidence of the broadest human charity in contributing $25,000 to the building fund. It is encouraging to note the widespread tendency to give the colored people a chance to show what they can do and to lend assistance in the way that will yield the most lasting results.
"It is being recognized more and more that the problem of the colored race is a great national one," declared the secretary with emphasis. "It belongs to no section and to no particular class of people. It can never be solved except by the co-operation of peoples of all religions and all races. We must face it as Americans, all fighting together under one flag for a common end." Mr. Stimson's speech was frequently interrupted by hearty applause and eluculations of "Amen!"
Other speakers were Dr. George Otis Smith, president of the Washington Y. M. C. A.; W. Knowles Cooper, secretary of the Washington Y. M. C. A., and Mr. R. C. Morse. References were made by each to former President Roosevelt, who laid the cornerstone of the structure on Thanksgiving day, Nov. 26, 1907. Mr. E. J. Morton, president of the colored branch, conducted the exercises and happily introduced the speakers.
Too much credit cannot be given to those indefatigable workers, International Secretary J. E. Moorland and Local Secretary Lewis E. Johnson, who created the movement and whose unfaltering faith and unfagging industry pushed it on to its grand realization. One of the most gratifying gifts was $500, paid in by H. W. Chase, a colored man and a former slave. The
other big donation, aside from that of Mr. Rosenwald, was $25,000 from John D. Rockefeller. More than $27,000 came from the colored people of Washington, representing the generosity of all classes, from the humblest four dollar per week laborer to the $4,000 per year government official, mingling together on a common platform of race pride and Christian co-operation.
Admirably Adapted to Its Purpose.
The building is admirably adapted to the purpose for which it is intended. It was designed by W. Sidney Pittman, a colored architect, and every brick was laid by a colored contractor. Thus it is a monument to Negro brain, brawn and financial strength. The building has four floors. In the basement are a barber shop, Turkish bath, social rooms, swimming pool (50 by 20 feet, four to six feet deep), shower baths, lockers and furnace room.
Four stalwart granite columns adorn the front. The spacious lobby is flanked by a reading room on the south side and a home parlor on the north side. On this floor will also be found the executive offices, lunch room, committee room and the gymnasium. The "gym" is one of the prettiest rooms of the kind in the country, having light on three sides and a thirty foot ceiling. The running track and also the balcony entirely surround and overhang the gymnasium proper. The gym is fully equipped with all the latest and modern gymnasium apparatus. The second floor is taken up with the assembly hall, boys' department, classrooms and offices. The third and fourth floors are given over entirely to dormitories. There are accommodations in the forty-four rooms for about 100 men. The building is fitted up throughout with electric lights and steam heat.
At the conclusion of Secretary Stimson's address and the other features of the program the building was thrown open for inspection, and many complimentary expressions were heard touching the beauty, utility and superb appointments visible on every side. The Amphion Glee club, led by Professor J. Henry Lewis, furnished music for the occasion.
Every night during the week special exercises were held. It was a veritable "jubilee week," with military, athletics, fraternal organizations, ministers' associations, public schools and a ladies' night included in the array of attractions offered. On Sunday the festival period closed with a monster men's rally, with Rev. M. W. Clair of Asbury M. E. church as the orator of the day. A vigorous campaign is in progress for an increased membership. Washington aims to set the pace for all of the colored Y. M. C. A. organizations in the country.
WORK OF WOMEN'S CLUBS.
What the Empire State Federation Has Done For Mrs. Tubman.
The executive committee of the Empire State Federation of Women's Clubs has secured St. Mark's Methodist Episcopal church, New York, in which to hold the fourth annual meeting of that organization for two days, beginning on Tuesday, July 2.
The clubs represented in the federation have an aggregate membership of 5,000 women. Their work is educational, civic, social and philanthropic. A special feature of the work this year has been the raising of funds for the care and support of Mrs. Harriet Tubman of underground railroad fame, who resides at the Tubman home in Auburn, N. Y.
The officers of the federation are Mrs. Mary B. Talbert, president; Mrs. S. E. Wilkerson, vice president; Mrs. Marie Jackson, secretary; Miss Elizabeth Mickens, financial secretary; Miss Adena C. E. Minot, A. M., treasurer; Mrs. Charlotte A. Bell, chairman of the executive committee, and Mrs. M. C. Lawton, organizer.

PANAMA CANAL ZONE NOTES.
Eyewitness Writes About Atmospheric
Pressure and Volcanic Disturbances.
A correspondent at the canal zone iu
a recent letter to “Bruce Grit” of Yon:
kers, N. Y., writes: “I at at least 180
miles from the elty of Panama and tts
voleanie disturbitnces. An eyewitness
has told me that if paper or even a
straw hat falls into the Culebra cut the
article 1s sure to become ashes.”
‘This would seem to confirm the state-
ment recently published that there are
evidences of voleanic disturbances in
the canal region. Another correspond-
ent writes, “Timbers found at the bot-
tom of the cut are charred, as though
burned in a kiln.” Perhaps sclentists
can explain the significance of this.
Just why paper and straw hats should
turn to ashes and timber be converted
in charcoa! {n the Culebra cut are in-
turesting questions. Is the canal really
located over a volcano, and ts there
danger of an eruption some day?

Promoter Nelson Busy With Inquiries
From Prospective Settlers.
Havyana.—The interest taken in com-
mercial and agricultural pursuits by
colored Ameficanx is causing wome un:
easiness amonx some of the white peo-
ple from the southern states of Amer
ica. The influence of Mr. George Da-
vis and family, who recently arrived
from Bessemer, Alu., has given new
impetus to the situation. Mr. Davis
has already deposited $15,000 in the
Nationa! Bank of Cuba. He bas pur-
chased eighty-three acres as the nu-
cleus for other landholdings for the
accommodation of fifteen families from
his former home in Bessemer.
‘The aggregate wealth of the fifteen
families is placed at $250,000. Ar-
rangements are being made for their
arrival, which is scheduled for the lat-
ter part of July.
R. M. R. Nelson Lista, Havana, says
his mail is large and growing; that he
has over $50,000 worth of buyers prom-
ised and thirty-seven pledged excur-
sionists to visit Havana this summer
with a view of investing if the “look
over” proves satisfactory to them.
Indications point to an awakening of
the thinking Negro. He 1s slowly see-

Miss Anna Jones, a prominent white
woman, paid a glowing tribute to the
race when she sald: “The Negro owns

The city of Denver in all departments and including all officers is now under control of the Citizens' party. While The Statesman was in opposition to that party, in common with all citizens, we wish the government to be of the best, and since they have won and are the preference of the majority, we hope that they will come up to the high hopes of their supporters have entertained. It matters not what predictions of good or evil have been made, Mayor Arnold and his administration, have their chance to make good, and it is common sense to wait and see what they do.
We are especially desirous of seeing what showing they will make under the present form of the city government. We have always insisted that the imperfections of Speer Democracy should not be used to prove the utter failure of present laws. Good men may be able to make of the "mayor" form as good machinery of government as the "commission" form. We believe they can do so more easily. Mr. Arnold, while committed to the commission form, will doubtless continue to be mayor for many months. We hope he will do so well in that time that the demand for commission government will die out.
Ever since the Cuban government has been organized, and since the United States troops were withdrawn, there have been race difficulties. It will be remembered that Maceo and the blacks were some of the most active and resolute rebels against Spanish rule and the most effective allies of the United States in securing Cuban freedom. However, when it came to the election of the officials, American interests and race prejudice reduced the blacks to an inferior position. This they resented. And now they are in revolt. While we do not now the specific occasion of their rebellion, nor the justice of their cause, we are human enough to be interested in them and to desire that they be given fair treatment. It does not follow that they are wrong because they are black nor because they are in an inferior position. If American control of Cuba is to mean to the Cuban Negro what has happened to the American Negro in the South, it is no improvement of his condition that Spanish rule is gone. In neither case is he a citizen with opportunity to say what the law shall be or how it shall be enforced. The dark cloud of race hate is spreading, and our hope is the good sense of the world will destroy it like it did slavery.

THE STATESMAN
THE STATE POLITI
THE STATE POLITICAL LEAGUE
Our Letter Box
The Statesman.
At a conference of colored voters held in Colorado Springs March 11th 1912, it was deemed expedient to form what shall be known as "the State League of colored Republican voters." The importance of the approaching campaign is apparent to all and no class of citizens will more depend than upon the Negro. The time for general political activity is near at hand and the Negro voter of the state should plan to assume an aggressive positive policy, rather than be content with a negative part as has too often been the case in years gone by. True we have received a little consideration by occasional appointments here and there, but no fair minded man of any race or political faith will agree that it has been proportionate to our voting strength, nor at all in fair compensation for our loyalty to the Republican party. It is no exaggeration to state that fully three-fourths of the Negro voters of Colorado remain consistently loyal to the Republican party, in season and out. It may be further safely urged that no other class of voters in the state can show such a large percentage of their numbers adhering to the principles of the party as can the Negro. That this abnormally large percentage can be materially added to by a display of the sense of fair treatment and honorable reward accorded to other races who identify themselves with the Republican party. It is not sufficient that we alone know our own voting strength. It is important that we also impress the other fellow with it. By a unifor msystem in organization we may take a lon g gstep toward rectifying many of the ills of which we complain.
The Republican party managers confidently hope for victory in the ap proaching campaign, and that hope must to a degree be based upon the loyalty of the colored voters. By united effort we should do our utmost to secure party success both in the state and nation. But in doing so let us not overlook our rightful due. Let us display the manhood and courage to ask for equitable recognition and make our request more effective by showing the solidity of our support. This State League should be an effective means to a definite and substantial end. We desire to join hands with local clubs in every town and city in the state.
Speaking for myself as president of the State League, I desire to state that it is my sincere desire to act fairly and absolutely impartially. I shall not ask and do not want any promises from any candidate or party worker whatsoever that cannot be made with equal frankness and earnestness to any member of our race. Our demands for rightful recognition should extend beyond those places now designated as Negro jobs. To use our labors merely to fight each other over places now held by Negroes is, to say the least, harmful, if not repreensible. Let us hold all we have got and battle for more. Let the manhood and womanhood of our race be more assertive in this campaign than ever before.
I shall be glad to receive suggestions at any time and from any one.

General Conference of Zion Church Elects No New Bishops.
Charlotte, N. C., May 28. After taking nine successive ballots extending over a period of four days with no reresults the various candidates for bishops at the general conference of the A. M. E. Zion church in session in this city withdrew. Their withdrawal was brought about by a committee consisting of Bishops Alexander Walters, J. W. Alstork, J. S. Caldwell and Drs. W. H. Golef, J. C. Dancy and W. L. Hamblin, who had impressed upon the candidates that the majority of the delegates would not elect two bishops at this time.
The eight bishops of the church had previously recommended that no additional bishops be elected at this time, but some of the delegates were opposed to this program. A two-thirds vote and twenty years' service in the ministry were necessary for election. There were eighteen candidates at first, but toward the last the fight narrowed down to J. S. Jackson, financial secretary of the denomination; George E. Clement, editor of the Star of Zion; R. B. Bruce, editor of Sunday School Literature; R. S. Rives of Knoxville, Tenn.; S. L. Corrothers of Washington, J. B. Colbert and W. L. Lee.
After Bishop Caldwell had finished reading the agreements of the various candidates to withdraw each of the various candidates for the episcopacy arose and seconded the proposition, and an affecting scene followed. The election of general officers was then entered into with the following results: J. S. Jackson, financial secretary; G. E. Clement, editor of the Star of Zion; M. D. Lee, general secretary; F. K. Bird, manager of the A. M. E. Zion Publishing House; R. B. Bruce, editor of Sunday School Literature.
A memorial service for Bishops Martin R. Franklin and J. W. Smith, who have died since the last session of the general conference, was held Sunday afternoon. The report of the Woman's Home and Foreign Missionary society showed that $11,000 had been raised for missions during the quadrennium, Dr. W. R. Pettiford, president of the Alabama Penny Savings bank, Birmingham, and also head of the National Negro Bankers' association, was one of the speakers before the conference. The closing session was taken up with the final matters that had to come before the delegates.
MAY CRISIS MAGAZINE.
Organ of Association For Human Rights to Govern in Public Form
Rights Grows In Public Favor.
In the Crisis Magazine the colored people of the United States possess for the first time a periodical read largely by white people. This is as it should be.
There is little chance of appealing simply to ourselves when the power to right most of our wrongs is in the hands of other people.
Letters continually come to the Crisis office from white folk showing appreciation of the work and the makeup of the magazine. One of the latest readers is Mayor Brand Whitlock of Toledo. This fact gives especial significance to the May Crisis. This is a large number and brings before the public the great work of the Negro church. On the cover is a picture of the Baptist Institutional church of Jacksonville, Fla., founded by Dr. J. Milton Waldron, now of Washington. There is a carefully written article on the present condition of the church. This has been written by four unnamed leaders in these churches and doubtless will arouse a great deal of comment. Another interesting article is a consideration of the color line by the celebrated Egyptologist, J. Flinders Petrie of London.
Among the men of the month are Abdul Baha, the great Persian religious leader, and the military attaches of the United States to Liberia. All readers of the Crisis will be gratified at its new and large type, which makes it much more readable and ornamental in appearance. The Crisis has just moved into its fine new suit of offices on the second floor of the Evening Post annex, 26 Vesey street, New York city.

RHEUMATISM
2310 Dearborn, Chicago, Ill.
For several years I suffered with rheumatism and took several kinds of medicines and seemed to get worse. At night I could not turn myself over without assistance and suffered untold misery in my arms, shoulders and back, and one of my legs grew stiff and I feared I would become a cripple, but thanks to Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder Powder, after taking three bottles I am able to do my work with ease and comfort, can rest at night as though nothing had ever troubled me. So to every one troubled with rheumatism I recommend Bates' Twentieth Century Wonder to the highest.

THE DEMONS OF THE SWAMP
are mosquitoes. As they sting they put deadly malaria germs in the blood; give you a fine appetite and the fires of fever. The appetite files and the strength fails; also malaria often paves the way for deadly typhoid. But Electric Ditters kill and cast out the malaria germs from the blood. Then follow the icy chills and renew your strength. "After long suffering," wrote Wm. Fretwell, of Lucaura, N. C., "three bottles drove all the malaria from my system, and I've had good health ever." Best for all stomach, liver and kidney ills. 50 cents, at all druggists.
CONSUMPTION
I had suffered with bronchitis, loss of appetite and lost flesh for almost a year until I started taking the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea. I immediately saw a change and began gaining flesh and could eat almost anything with a relish. I soon got so that a cold did not effect me. I had been confined to the bed from ten to twelve days before taking the Twentieth Century Wonder Tea, and I believe too much cannot be said in its praise. I cheerfully recommend it to anyone suffering from bronchitis and lung trouble.

B. Dodson, president of the club, visit-
ed the court and held a conference
with the matron. Upon inguiry as to
the number of colored boys and girls
brought into the court within the past
six months, the nature of the charge
against them and if held what steps
were taken lo correct them in order to
prevent a recurrence of the same of-

number in comparison to other races

within this period of time. As to the
disposition made of them, some were
sent to the juvenile home. and others
were either taken in charge by parents
or guardians or served short sentences
and then released.
‘The committee asked why such
youths were not cominitted to the State
Institution For Juvenile Offenders and
was told that there Was no room for
them. The committee is of the opin
ion that it is the duty of the state to
provide room for all offenders, whether
white or colored.

county court of special sessions to de-
liver the principal address at the first
anniversary exercises of ‘the club,
which were heid in the Concord Bap:
tist church on Wednesday eyening.
May 20. Justice Russell's subject was
“The Welfare of the Child.” There
was a large audience present, and the
Justice gave a convincing and lozical
discussion of the subject with fairness
and manifest interest in the welfare of
the youths of all races and natipuall
ties.
Starting with the child asa babe im
the cradle, the speaker gave his opin-
fon as to the proper training of chil-
dren and the best methods to use at
every period of child life on through
the adolescent period until 2 youth
reaches the age of twenty-one. He
said if the cid or youth could be
got through the adolescent period safe-
ly without serfous misbaps no fear
need be exercised as to his future wel-
fare. The foundation must be laid in
the home and the course of the child's
life carefully watched and guided “until
he comes to the age of accountability.
It 1s a good omen for all the people
when busy men like Justice Russell
lay aside heavy official duties and
come out in the open with the people
to assist in working out the many
difficult problems relating to the well
being of the community. The infor-
mation received at this meeting will
go far toward solving the problem to
which the Mothers’ club has directed
its attention.

‘The association has under its supervi-

Mr, George E. Wibecan, Jr, one of
the board of managers, presided. “Lhe
speaker was County Judge Lewis
Fawcett, whose subject was “Crime—
Its Cause and Cure.” Judge Fawcett
was introduced by Internal Revenue
Collector Charles W. Anderson. Judge
Fawcett gave an interesting discourse
on the causes of crime and suggested
many methods by which the multi-
plicity of crime might be reduced.
He said that prior to the eighteenth
century criminals were extremely tor-
tured. In the nineteenth century the
treatment became more humano, Orim-
inals may be classified as follows: In-
sane, born, habitual, occasional, pas-
sion. The insane criminal belongs to
that class of mental infirmities whose
minds are not sufficiently strong to re-
sist temptations. The born criminal
is brutal, cruel, crafty and lazy. His
crimes nre those of the highwayman,
burglar, Black Hand, etc.
‘The occasional criminal is the man
who is morally weak, who is governed
by force of circumstances or enyiron-
ment. The criminal of passion fs he
who allows his temper in a moment to
get the mastery of him to the extent
that he may kill a man before he re-
gains himself. The occasional criminal
fs one who does not commit erime
from nature; 1s the one who, when
temptations are removed, does nog fall
again, Defaulters and ombersion ana
under this head,
Poverty and idleness are largely re-
sponsible for many of the crimes. The
world is full of men and boys who live
without working. ‘They are really the

MRS. A: M. POPE-TURNBO
PROPRIETOR
“Poro” College
3100 Pine St. St. Louls, Me.
(THE “PORO” SYSTEM of Scalp and
Hair treatment is based on the lat-
est scientific and sanitary methods,
effecting a healthy scalp thus promot-
ing a growth of beautiful hair.
The “Poro” preparations used in con-
nection with the treatment are made
and sold exclusively by myself, having
the exclusive right to that name; and
I, alone, know the secret of the com-
position that bears that name, Our
claim has always been that when the
hair begins to grow as the result of
the use of “PPORO," it will
continue to do so if only _thescalp
and hair be kept clean. This san-
itary method of treatment is also
having the desired effect in helping
80 prevent the spread of diseases, for
ft is a fact that hair in an unsanitary
condition carries the germs of disease
which often prove fatal to innocent
persons coming in contact with them,
For treatment, call on or address:
