TWO COLORED MEN WILL KNOCK AT THE DOOR OF THE AMERICAN CONGRE88. When the special called American congress meets November the 9th seats in the congress will be contested, all in the lower branch, as follows: Massachusetts 9th, Conry vs. Keilhor; Colorado 1st, Bonynge vs. Shafroth; Tennessee 8th, Davis vs. Slims; South Carolina 1st, Priolan vs. Legore, and the 7th, Dantyler vs. Lever; California 4th, Kahn vs. Livernash; North Carolina 8th, Moody vs. Grudger; Oklahoma, Cross vs. McGuire; Pennsylvania, 10th, Connell vs. Howell. Mr. Pilolan of the First and Dantyler of the Seventh are the colored contestants, while if they have a good claim we believe that they can easily, convince a republican congress to their support. Yet we cannot see, since nearly all the colored voters have been disfranchised, how they could even get the nomination or any votes. However, we shall watch their cases with much anxiety. PROF. KEALING LECTURE. The first of a series of colored lectures that may be given here this winter was held last Thursday evening at Y. M. C. A. auditorium by Prof. H. T. Kealing, whose cut appeared in our last week's issue. There was a large crowd of colored people but only a few white people present. The lecture was intended especially for the white people, but the democratic candidate for governor was speaking at the Auditorium and many went there who otherwise would have been there. A male quartette composed of G. I. Holt, W. H. Warrick, Henderson and W. Mason sang "Blow Ye Wild Winds"; then Dr. A. L. Frisby in a brief speech introduced Prof. H. T. Kealing, who delivered a very able address on the "American Jonah Man." Prof. Kealing is one of the best educated and most able men of our race today and is only a young man, and if he continues on will be a great power for all that is good and beautiful in a full man.

A special from Kahoka, Mo., says that Frank Clark, the confessed ravisher of Miss Olive Hess, who was found guilty by the jury in the trial at Kahoka, which terminated last Thursday with the death penalty attached, was brought before Judge McKee, who named Nov 25 as the day for his execution. Clark did not appear at all effected by this gruesome announcement which would send him into eternity, but looked up to the judge with the remark: "Thank you, sir." When being taken out of the court house, on his way down the aisle, he smiled blandly and did not seem to be at all disturbed, or did not realize what the near future had in store for him. He displayed wonderful nerve and seemed careless of his fate. There were no special proceedings and the closing act of the trial was soon over with only the brief talk of the judge fixing the date of execution. A Word to the Public Mrs. Mary L. Holmes has charge of the boarding house at 304 W. Walnut street, formerly conducted, by Mrs. Annie Hall. She solicits your patronage. Board by the day or week.

Dr Charles Hose, of Sarawak, after many experiments, has formed the theory that the disease berl berl arises in tropical regions from the consumption of moldy rice. Dr. Strange ways Pigg of Cambridge has expounded the theory of Ireland THE BRAIN IN DELIRIUM. Strange Cases That Have Come Under Physician's Observation. Medical records in the various hospitals of New York city show that though quite forgetful of recent hapening of the brain, they have not past, events in correct order, and even lie again amid scones passed utterly out of recollection before the disease of senility appeared. A woman of 70, delirious from pleuro-pneumonia, repeated poetry in Hindustani. It developed lated on that up to the age of four she knew only that language, but afterward had forgotten that she ever spoke it. Another peculiar case on record is that of an illiterate maid servant who while in the delirium of fever, recited Greek and Hebrew for hours, although in health she was not either language, her ravings being due to the brain impressions left by the readings heard many years before of a learned rabbi whose servant she had been. HAD TO HAVE THE HAT. Striker's Wife Put Up Effective Plea for Finish. A woman went into a little military shop in One hundredth street, near Amsterdam avenue, the other day and asked to see a hat. A chiffon creation, of which the price was $3 was shown her, and she expressed a smile. "Now, now," she asked, "If I leave fifty cents on deposit, and bring in the rest later?" "That's very unusual," replied the milliner. "When could you pay the balance?" "That's just the point," said the woman. "I don't know. My husband is a plasterer. He makes $5.25 a day while he is working. But he has been on strike for four weeks, and we have nothing." "What time?" she asked. "In the same time!" she was asked. "Hook everything we have, like the rest of the strikers," replied the woman. "Everything we own is in pawn, but I must have that hat." She got it—New York Sun. Horses of Famous Man. It is strange that no one seems to know anything about the various horses that George Washington rode, and that the names of them all seem to have gone down into oblivion. Every one knows about Marengo, the white stallion Napoleon rode at Waterloo, and whose remains are now in the United Services Museum at London. The Duke of Wellington was astride of Copenhagen during the battle and the horse lived to be twenty-seven. Richard III, crowned White Surrey, and it was for him that he wanted to trade a kingdom. William III's favorite horse was named Sorrel, and was blind in one eye, as was Savoy, the favorite horse of Charles VIII, of France—Springfield Republican. Art Forgeries. The Anglo-Saxon is the natural prey of the art forgery-monger, and the modern antiques which are manufactured for him constitute the livelihood of the whole countrysides on the Arno, and the Tiber, on the Nile, and on the Jordan. Innocent peasant-looking people dig up these antiques before the eyes of the unsuspecting tripper! And when the fool goes off with his folly, the simple, gulleless peasant quietly buries another example of the same object in the same hole for the benefit of the next tourist who may come along—Magazine of Art. Boggar's Successful Plea The best known of the penny begars is loose in Broadway again after a long absence. He is a gray-beared old man who glides up to you in the street and says in a wheezy voice: "Boss, will you give me a penny? I want to get a cup of coffee. I have four." As an evidence of truthfulness he holds out four pennies in his dirty palm. His modest request is usual: "Can you tell me how much money he has been doing the penny-begging stunt for several years now and seems to be satisfied with the results.—New York Sun. Reason for Left-Handedness A scientist has recently published a brochure on the subject of right and left handedness. The explanation for the phenomena in any person is traced to the pressure of the blood in the two halves of his brain. He concludes that for right-handed subjects there is an excess of pressure in the left half of the brain, accompanied by vitality in all those parts of the body dependent on the left brain. For left-handed people the reverse is true. Old-Time Business Methods. Church White, of Atchison, regrets that the merchants of the present day do not do business as they did at Hainesville, Mo. where he was rearced. The custom there was to settle with the store once a year on the business of Joseph Whit's father went to McCrary's store to store. "What's my bill?" he asked of McGory, "Well, George," said McCory, "pay what you think is right; I can't keep no account." "Honey, when's you gwine ter gg married!" The engagement had not been announced, so the young woman replied: "Why. I don't know, auntie; I don't know. That day I think of that?" The old colored woman said: "Laws-a me! but that sutttiny am a pity. But, Miss Nancy, they do say that oile mails is the happiest critics there is, once they quits strung in."--Harver's Mazazine PRESIDENT EWYT SPRING BY THE STATE PRESIDENT PRESIDENT OF THE STATE OF IOWA PRESIDENT OF MARYLAND BOOK IOWA STATE BOOK 24 GENERAL PAPER OF THE IOWA CONSTITUTION IOWA STATE BOOK 24 OF IOWA A.

Rival Factions of the Armenian Revolutionary Forces Are Engaged in a Bleody Feud and Sagouli is the Latest Victim. London, Oct. 28.-Sagatel Sagouli, president of the Armenian Revolutionary society in London, was murdered in the suburb of Nanhead. The crime has created a sensation as it has every appearance of being of a political character, and has been preceded by the assassinations of other members of branches of the same society. Sagouli, who only returned to London yesterday after settling up the affairs of an associate in Switzerland, who was recently assassinated by stabbing, was entering his residence when a man rushed across the road and fired four shots at Sagouli in quick succession, the last bullet entering the region of the heart. The murderer, who appeared to be a foreigner, fled. The only clues to the man in possession of the authorities are a felt hat and a silver plated revolver, both made in New York, which he dropped in his flight. The murdered man, who was a mining engineer, became wealthy in the Caucasus, and devoted his money to the Armenian cause. His society was entirely passive and opposed to violence, and it is thought this attitude inspired the advanced section of the Armenians with a desire for vengeance, the latter claiming that Sagotov's society offered fund for which which could have been better applied to violent remedies for the Armenian grievances. Sagouin is said to have moved to land from New York early in 1890. It is stated that Sagouni's life had been threatened on account of his participation in the exposure, by the editor of a Boston newspaper, Young Armenia, after the misappropriate Armenian revolutionists. These men are alleged to have collected $20,000 in America in 1902, and to have put the money in their own pockets, instead of pushing the propaganda for the emancipation of the Armenians, for which the money was subscribed. Boston, Oct. 28—Coincident with the murder in London of Sagatl Sagouni, was the sentencing here yesterday of Samuel Gulesian, an Armenian, to a term in the state prison of not more than twelve and no less than ten years. A derocious intent on Peter Kureghian, editor of an Armenian paper. Judge Stevens in imposing the sentence asserted that the crime no doubt was of a political nature. Gulesian and Kureghian were members of rival Armenian societies. Gulesian is only 19 years old. RUN ON THREE BANKS.

The run, so far as it can be traced, was started by a disquieting rumor from the outside that seemed to be coming from the inside, so the effect that the savings institutions here were unsound, and like a prairie fire it spread in a flash through the streets and different mercantile establishments, whose employees rep- resent the majority of savings depositors. With a rush the corridors of the Lincoln Trust company, the Mercantile Trust company, and the Mississippi Valley Trust company were filled with the money they had to withdraw their money. The scene in any one bank was duplicated in the other two. A line of people with bank books in their hands, and faces cagged with blood, were stretched out of the bank teller; stretched out into the street, and intermingled were policemen and bank officials counseling calmness, and giving assurances of solvency. The run started all other business was laid aside, and every facility was afforded for the prompt payment of deposits. The clause which gives the bank the privilege of withholding the money was waived, and amounts were paid rapidly, regardless of their size. The directors of the different trust decided to enforce the thirty and sixty day notification law, and this it is believed will stop all tendency to a run on the banks. FIRED AT PRESIDENT.

Moore, Notary Public, and have sworn and subscribed to written statements confirming the story of the awful illness and subsequent cure of the little son of Mr. and Mrs. McBride. Limes is particularly emphatic in his statement, and there does not now seem to be any room for doubt as to the fact that Dodd's Kidney Pills, and nothing else, saved the little boy. He was so bad that he had Epileptic spells which seized him with increasing frequency. He was semi-paralyzed in the right side, and his mind was badly affected. In their sworn statement, Mr. and Mrs. Dodd say: "The very best we began to use Dodd's Kidney Pills our boy had twenty-seven of these Epileptic spells or fits. In less than a week he ceased having them entirely." The case has caused a great sensation in the neighborhood. The sworn statements have confirmed the whole story.

What becomes of the thousands of hides gathered together annually in this country, and how are they consumed? A large number of many stock raisers, but few have any knowledge of a single great modern company like the Mayer Boot & Shoe Company of Milwaukee, year the hides of 257,145 animals, as follows: 41,853 steers, 21,492 cows, 85,953 horses, 1,069 kangaroos. If all these animals were placed in single file it would have to be moved or about the distance from Chicago to New York to supply the hides for each working day, if lined up at the Mayer factory every morning, would reach almost a mile. The Mayer factory has a capacity of 100,000 pairs of shoes in the greatest leather market in the world, and the Mayer videos, which is largely responsible for the superiority of Mayer shoes and the quality of the army of people who wear, and industrious army of people who wear, shoes bearing the Mayer trade mark.

General Boll has been extremely fortunate to be the make-up of his organization in the army than the Sixth and Twenty-fifth, and the Fifty-fifth Iowa is without doubt one of the best National Guard organizations in the army. We have called forth warm praise on all sides. This regiment has made a most favorable impression on the officers of the regular army for its ability in the field, and its fancy work showed it. We have a game of war as when it is marching over the hills or covering long stretches of dusty roads." "You ought to be very proud of the Fifty-fifth Iowa. It is the best regiment I ever saw in the National Guard." In these words, addressed to Adjutant General M. H. Byers of this state, General Bell of the regular army, one of the leading commanders at the maneuvers at Ft. Riley, paid a showing tribute to the Iowa boys. at the maneuvers at Ft.

"In the first place, every company was recruited and trained to make making 819 men. This was the largest regiment in the camp, not excepting the regulars. In the matter of discipline and training we excelled the Nebraska, Missouri, Kanada and New York. In a review that we shone and it was after that that General Bell addressed his words to me. We actually outclassed the regulars at this review and it was this fact that called forth the enthusiasm from General Bell." The Des Moines army post will be opened on Friday, November 13.

M. Reynolds vs. Lyon county, which issued a $225,000 issue of bonds, which were originally issued by the county in 1880. The bonds passed into the hands of the Equitable Life insurance company of Lyon county, red to the plaintiff. The county resisted, claiming that it was already beyond its legal indebtedness. The whole question in controversy hinged on whether or not a certain issue of bonds was legally valid. In 1870, was legal. If so, the issue of 1880 involved in the suit, was illegal; if not, the 1880 issue was legal, and Reynolds was entitled to them. The issue of 1880 was the violation of the United States court, and following its lead affirmed the ruling of the lower court, which gave the plaintiff judgment. In a decision on a case from Linn county the supreme court sustained a tax ferret contract in which the county agreed to pay one Cunningham and two others collected Cunningham had collected $1,092 and had received $3,800, then sued for $1,619 balance when the county board was enjoined from paying more. It was shown that he was guilty of tax fraud and his contract for tax ferreting in Linn county. His expenses had already been between $2,500 and $2,000. Judge Treicher in the district court cut the compensation to 15 per cent on the ground that he was a supreme court decided he had no right to enter such a decree and that the 50 per cent contract was not unreasonable.

Des Moines, Oct. 17.—Governor Cummins has received from President Maclean of the Iowa State University, the biennial report of that institution. It is a voluminous report and contains a vast amount of information of general interest. President Maclean declares that in the light of the experiences of the past two biennials, it is clear that the permanent support fund of the university should be enlarged. "This is not simply a matter of abstract justice in view of the use in earlier years of the endowment fund of the university from the United States in the supposed interests of the development of the state by the sale of university lands," says the president, "but it is a practical question of retaining properly prepared professors in the competition with richer institutions. It is further necessary in these days of scientific education that there should be modern professors, and that books. We are underpaying our staff of instructors and laborers. The university has reached a point of blossoming, and it can easily be blighted by the frost of false economy. We are underpaying our staff of our colleges, schools and departments already planted, and not the multiplication of departments. It would be folly for the state having such a good beginning to waste in a meanwhile what we have been supplementing by faculty to supplement the support fund at this juncture." President Maclean likewise submitted to the governor the board of regents' recommendations, approving them. They are as follows: If the university's needs are granted consor- tionary funding, a contribution to our income of $70,000 a year, thus: General support, $50,000; library, $10,000; repairs, $5,000; university, $5,000. Special appropriations are needed as follows: To make good fire loss and complete and equip the new medical building, $50,000; chased, $50,000; paying and walks, $10,000. The regents further state that "a creditable and really valuable modern university costa money, Iowa can afford it. We can only by providing adequate means to support it. There can be no question about the desirability of doing so, nor of the state's ability to support such an institution, but entrusted with the management of this important institution we feel we would be derelict in our duty if we did not urge that suitable provision be made to supply these materials, and that we gain an income of $1,000,000; Michigan; $700,000; Illinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota Nebraska and Missouri lying on our borders of $400,000 or more, in income for "If this should be increased $100,000 the university would immediately take different and increased rank, but the board does not expect such an increase. The sample asks for it very earnestly hopes will be given, so that the university will be able to provide better for the many hundreds of young men and women every year graduating from this university, who will otherwise continue to flock over the borders of Iowa, where they can find what they need under more favorable circumstances. If we do not allow the university to continue to rob us of仁利 and students." STAABBED Lover at the University Takes Radical Measures. Ottumwa, Oct. 28—Henry Iler of Red Oak, hovering between life and death, will be in his side and abdomen, Josie Handy, his intended bride, griefstricken, and Omar Mullenix, locked up in the county jail on the charge of attempted murder, are the results of Jealous because Mrs. Handy, his former sweetheart, would not marry him.

GOOD HOMES—GOOD HOMES A woman confined to the house for several years with a chronic female derangement had finally given up hope of being cured. She had tried physician, after physician, and remedy after remedy, without any permanent improvement. Her treatment had cost her husband, who was a poor man, hundreds of dollars. They had been obliged to deny themselves many comforts of life in order to get money enough to pay the physicians. The woman had become weak, nervous and wretched, and scarcely able to keep out of her bed. Her children were growing up neglected and ragged because of the want of a mother's care. Her husband was becoming discouraged and broken down with overwork. Floking up the paper one day she happened to read an item which contained the news that Dr. Hartman would treat such cases free of charge by letter. She immediately wrote the doctor describing her case, and giving him all her symptoms. She soon received a letter telling her exactly what to do, and what medicines and appliances to get. She began the treatment (the principle remedy being Peruna) at once, and in a few weeks she was well and strong again, able to do her own work. This offer of free home treatment to women is still open to all who may need the servicer to apply for treatment and applying for treatment will be promptly answered, and be held strictly confidential. Miss Annie Hoban, Post Foebontias of Yamassoa Council of Red Men (Women's Branch), writes from 872 Eighteen Ave. NW. "Three months ago I was troubled with backache and a troublesome heaviness about the stomach. Sleep brought me no rest for it was a restless sleep. The doctor said my pain was worse than it was. The scripts didn't seem to relieve me. I was told that Peruna was good for building up the nervous system. After using it for two months I now know that it is. I want to go to the doctor. I had tinging symptoms have all disappeared and I feel myself again. Peruna did me more good than all the other medicines I have taken." ANNIE HOBAN: Miss Mamie Powell, Lake Charles, Louisiana; writes: "I sincerely believe that Peruna is woman's best friend, for it has certainly been that to me. I had bad headaches, backaches and aches, and I had to go to the hospital shortly after I began taking Peruna this was a thing of the past, and I have good reason to be grateful. I take a bottle every spring and fall now, and that keeps my health perfect. I have been before and am weighing more. I do not think anyone will be disappointed in the results obtained from the use of Peruna.

After a diligent search, the youngest son found employment on the Roxborough filter plant, helping to dig the excavations. On the completion of the first day's work he asked Mr. McNichol to give his brother a job. The contractor, ever in the alert for good men, asked the young man if his brother could do the work of this recommendation the elder father was engaged. The next day both brothers went to McNichol and pleaded to have their father put on the job. "Can your father do as much work as either of you boys?" asked McNichol. "Yes," answered the brothers; "he can do as much work as both of us together." "Good," replied McNichol. "Bend your father around in the morning and you two stay at home."—Philadelphia Ledger.

That Elliot Zborowski, who was killed on Tuesday in an auto accident at Nice, died as he did, will be no surprise to those in this city who remember him as the greatest daredevil New York and Newport society ever had. Even Foxhall Kewe, who has had half the bones of his father, equal to this American count for his wild, reckless disregard for life. He was born in this city of a long line of Zborowski. Strangely enough, his death is in keeping with the traditions of his family, for none of the male members ever dies in bed. Back of this remarkable circumstance is a tale of a curse four generations ago launched at the head of the great-grandfather of Elliot Zborowski. A lord, who his father called upon heaven to prevent any male Zborowski from ever dying in his bed. None has since. Elliot's father was stricken with paralysis and died in his chair before the son could ride for a physician. One of his uncles, Elliot, was taken to Harvard and Hartford train. Another, Francis, was drowned in a Williamsbridge pond. Still another member of the family was killed by being thrown from a horse, and so the story has gone. Now comes the story of Elliot, a sensitive in a twentieth century, so elcchant—New York World. High Prices for Antiques.
