Mrs. Todd at Rest. Mrs. J. E. Todd who had been a patient sufferer of dropsy died at her home, 1164 West Eleventh street, last monday morning. She had been sick for nearly five months and was taken to the hospital where she remained several weeks; finally the doctors gave her up and she was removed to her home. Mrs. Todd was born in Missouri in 1854; married to Mr. J. E. Todd Nov. 17th, 1882. Two children were born to this union of which both are dead. She leaves two sisters and a dutiful husband and many friends to mourn her death. The funeral services were held from the A.M.E. church, of which she had been a member for the past 15 years. The funeral services were conducted by Dr. J. W. Dulin, assisted by Rev. I. N. Daniels, pastor of the A. M.E. church. The remains were laid to rest in the cemetery amid many beautiful flowers, which testified to her good life. She was an agreeable pleasant woman and liked by those who knew her. The Bystander extends condolence to the bereaved family. John Waller, one of our well known citizens, died suddenly last Sunday. Mr. Waller was a single man and had been ill in health for several months but was able to be up and about. He was related to the Hon. John L. Waller of Kansas, formerly of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. The remains were laid to rest in Glenwood cemetery. No More Gold Lace for Afghanhs. The ameer has published an edict which applies to all parts of Afghanistan, prohibiting the import into the country of all kinds of gold lace, including embroidered kullas lungis and embroidered shoes. The ameer is evidently actuated by a desire to prevent his subjects from spending their hard earned money on showy dresses, the poorer classes who are notoriously added to this extravagance. His majesty has decided, to check. The gold laced coat of the Afghan is decidedly handsome, and although the ameer has acted wisely in bringing into general use clothing less costly, his majesty's orders will doubtless be received by his subjects with rather mixed feelings. Proper Bestowal of Charity. Property Dishes There are not a few among the disciples of charity who require in their vocation, scarcely less excitement than the votaries of pleasure in theirs; and hence it is that diseased sympathy and compassion are every day expended on out-of-the way objects, when only too many demands upon the legitimate exercise of the same virtues in a healthy state constantly within the heart of hearing of the unobservant person in the short, charity must have its romance, as the moveless or the play-wright must have his. DES MOINES, IOWA, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1909. MAN OF FINE BUSINESS TACT. Former Chaplain in Spanish-American War Helping Young Afro-Americans. Dr. Richard Carroll of Columbia, S.C., has gained recognition from all classes of citizens in his state and is highly esteemed by them. His characteristics are such that he stands out enormously as a citizen of popular power. Receiving his education at Shaw university and Benedict college, he developed a personality and oratorical persuasion that have made him a unique figure in his community and the states where he has been a potent factor in bringing about better relations between the people of the state; therefore his services are always in demand. He has the distinction of filling the pupil of every white denomination of the Palmetto State and has been paid hundreds of dollars to lecture to white audiences. Thousands heard him in the west, especially when he was lecturing for John M. Shaw's Chauquanus in Ohio, Illinois and Indiana a few years ago. For twelve years he rendered service for his denomination as Sunday school missionary for the American Baptist Unibody College, Georgia and Florida which was a pleasing success. Owing to his native fitness and ability to reach men and inspire them to noble deeds, he was made chaplain of the Tenth United States Volunteer Infantry during the Spanish-American war. In traveling throughout the state he made his aim to come into direct touch with the lowly and especially the orphans of his race and has for twelve years supported a home for institute Afro-American children mainly through his lectures and seminars. Dr. Carroll is the dynamic force for this movement, which is claiming all of his time. Desiring to overcome the antiphony between both races, he had Dr. Washington and a parry of representative Afro-American tour South Carolina for one week during the month of March this year under his especial direction. The Colored State Fair association was reorganized last year, with Dr. Carroll as its chief and a great success. Not a disorderly character was in evidence during the whole fair, which is an evidence of the Rev. Dr. Carroll's executive ability. INDUSTRY OF MRS. BRANCH. Amiable Young Matron Who Is Devot- time to Child Study Mrs. Vidi Brout Branch, who is the accomplished wife of the Rev. T. T. Branch of Fayetteville, N. C., is one of the most gifted vocalists among Afro-Americans in the state. While in school at South Broad Street Conservatory of Music, Philadelphia, she filled many engagements in different northern cities, where her sweet, well rounded voice thrilled many fashionable audiences. Mrs. Branch is a native of New Jersey and a graduate of the State Normal school at Trenton. On account of the high average made MRS. VIDI RIOUT BRANCH. In her studies while a student at the state school, upon graduation Mrs. Branch was given a life certificate in pedagogy. Mrs. Branch is a member of two white quartets, and at a recent commencement she represented the medical department of her alumnae. She is truly devoted to child study, and in this particular phase of racial development she is manifesting deep interest in the little Afro-Americans of Fayetteville. She is endeavoring to get the parents of children to observe the distinct characteristics of their children and to talk with them according to their capacity to understand things and to place no opposition in the way of forming good character. She is a lover of the works of the She is a lover of the works of the old music masters and is adept at piano playing. Crescent Social Club's Gala Night. The fourth annual reception and dance of the Crescent Social club, which was held at Summer hall, Brooklyn, on Thursday evening, Oct. 28, was a grand affair. The members of the club were out in full numbers, wearing club colors. It was an evening dress turnout, and for variety in dress colors and styles it would be pretty and to duplicate the indices of this club and their guests. There were many out of town patronesses. Biennial of Women's Clubs in 1910. The next biennial session of the National Association of Colored Women's Clubs will be held in Louisville, KY, in 1910. The executive committee will soon announce the date of meeting and plans of the reception and care of delegates and other important information. Miss Elizabeth C. Carter is president of the association, whose motto is "Lifting us as we climb." THE WAYS OF BUREAUCRACY Case In Question Puzzled Chief of Naturalization Bureau. The chief of the bureau of naturalization in Washington has settled, so far as he can, a rather curious question arising out of the fact that some 500 Turks employed in various factories in Michigan City and Laporte, Ind., want to become American citizens. "Referring to declaration of intention No. 251, in the name of Charyl Said Alrabain, made in your court" (answering a county court clerk), it is noted that the declarant is a Turk, and it is desired to inform you that he is obligible to American citizenship under the provisions of section 2109 of the revised statutes". He says nothing about Asiatics. It follows the title with regard to naturalization methods, and its exact language is this: GENIUS AT HIS $ ^{1} $ PROFESSION. How Dr. J. Walter Williams Won Prominence as Surgeon in Savannah. Prominence as Surgeon at Savannah. Among the men who have graduated with distinction from the medical department of Howard university and have distinguished themselves in their profession as physicians and surgeons is a native of Texas, now residing in Savannah, Ga. The clinical course taken at the Massachusetts General hospital by this young man prepared him for a special work among the race. Dr. J. Walter Williams, M. D. went to Savannah during the year 1890. There was a remarkable case that was puzzling to a number of experienced surgeons in the city, and Dr. J. WALCK WILLIAMS. Williams for the first and last time was the only Afro-American allowed to perform an operation in the Georgia infirmary at Savannah. This particular operation was a success. In diagnosing a case that afterward proved to be of a freakish nature one of the leading white surgeons of Georgia, who was on the same case, dissected against the Williams for the surgical efforts of the party. The patient was carried to the Georgia infirmary for operation. The prominent white surgeon had his white conferences and nurses present at the hour of operation, and Dr. Williams was the only Afro-American present to witness the outcome of the surgical efforts of the white surgeon. Results proved the scientific ability of Dr. Williams, and the opinion of this surgeon was totally at variance with that of Dr. Williams. The opinion of Dr. Williams from members of the profession that the public, especially his race, heavily taxed him by his substantial appreciation of his fitness as a surgeon. He has worked zealously as vice president of the Georgia Afro-American medical association and the South Atlantic Medical society of Savannah. His distinct professional personality and treatise before these bodies on freakish cases have been potent in the scientific progress of the organizations. His civic and economic spirit makes him a public spirited citizen. An example is set by him by the accumulation of valuable real estate. Among the Afro-Americans of Savannah he is ever working to make them see the main chance. He can be seen early in the day and late at night in his car attending his patients in and out of the Charity hospital, of which he is superintendent and chief, he has been involved with the work of years, and under his administration this institution has been enlarged and modernized. Among his clan he is noted for his professional courtesies and is a factor in the development of the Afro-American folk of his community. A large white corporation recently engaged him as physician for his Afro-American employees. OTTUMWA NEWS.

Miss Daisy Walker of Indianapolis is spending a few days here in the interest af the Woman's Protective Association. The Odd Fellows are preparing to give a dance the 22nd in Central Hall. College Course in Politics. To Columbia university belongs the credit of offering the first course designed to give students a practical knowledge of the conduct of political affairs. That institution has asked the bureau of municipal research in New York to give the members of the class the benefit of the experience it has derived from the study of the affairs of that city, and the invitation has been accepted. The growing demand for the adoption of the scientific methods of city governments lends support to the view that college men will be in demand in this department of the public service, hence the propriety and quality of university course established on the lines indicated by the innovation at Columbia. Haltiane a. Lazy Lot. Sydney Brooks, writing to the London Chronicle about Haiti, says the Haitians were the first people in the world to abolish slavery, and Mrs. C. R. Miller, writing in Leslie's Weekly, says of Haiti: "In that little republic, covering about 10,000 square miles, within five days' sail of New York, one may encounter more strange complications and a greater disregard for human life than in the remote countries of the east. Stunted in the very heart of the West Indies, where civilization exists in the West, all alone has kept her doors closed to progress. She became an independent state more than 100 years ago. Her rich lands were already under cultivation, but the lazy natives allowed the plantations to go to ruin, and forests have grown up instead." Farm Employment for Criminals. Gov. Harris of Ohio believes that criminals can be employed on a farm with advantage to themselves and the state. He proposes that prisoners in the penitentiary who are not confirmed criminals be transferred to the reformatory and put to work on the state farm. "It is the conditions of our cities that breed crime," says the governor. "Most of it can be traced to idleness and drink, and idleness is frequently the cause of drink. There is little drink in the country and proba- tion has had slipped over the bounds of a law were taught scientific farming he would come to like it and escape the associates who carry him down when he returns to the city." Milk an Intoxicant. New York City alone consumes annually 840,000,000 quarts of milk. We drink 2,300,000 quarts a day. And this does not include mothers' milk for infants; just cows' milk—watered and unwatered, for both infants and adults. "Milk" says Emerson. "It is readily made intoxicating in warm climates simply by agitation. This feature was quickly discovered." Being placed in a skin and slung from the shoulder or over the back, it was agitated by the motion of the hunter, and fermentation was soon well under way. The skin was undoubtedly none too clean, some milk of the previous day being left in it, which would set as a leaven. Thanks are due to Columbus for discovering us. When aeronauts come down to earth they find that the laws have not changed since they soared aloft. Thankgiving isn't so far ahead but you can smell mince pie and cranberry sauce coming down the pike. The glaziers in New York have or organized a union. But that is one which will probably be easy to break up. Terrific and fatal storms on land and sea prove that man has not yet made complete conquest of the forces of nature. With food prices still soaring, the housekeeper now has problems to solve of just as great importance as those statesmen are called on to wreatle with. No hurry about that smoked glass. Halley's comet will not be visible to the naked eye till next spring. Query—Can an eye clothed in sooty glass be called "naked?" Americans invented the steamship, the telegraph, the telephone, the electric light and the reaper. Then an American spolied it all by inventing the phonograph. The Japanese have added a course of courtship to the curriculum of the girl's schools in Japan. They might as well establish an institution of instruction teaching ducks how to swim. The head of a woman's college in Massachusetts holds the theory that a woman's beauty should be developed before her brain develops a capable of building by a sound foundation to make the edifice all the stronger at the top. American torpedo boat and torpedo-boat destroyers are showing a capacity for speed that is not likely to be excelled anywhere. The torpedo-boat destroyer Flusser recently made something like 33 knots an hour, and now another new craft, the Reid, reports having made 34.548 knots. These little "hornets of the sea" show they can fly swiftly as well as sting sharply. A recruit in New York who openly cursed the army and the American flag and who asserted he had entered the United Service merely for money and graft, was awarded the option for several years. The country has no more use for traitors in these days than in the times of Benedict Arnold, and such an offense is severely punished because it strikes at the very root of our national life. That Panama earthquake was only a little one. It caused some apprehension, but apparently did no damage. The canal at Panama was undertaken in the full knowledge that the region is in the earthquake belt, but also with the conviction that less danger is to be apprehended there than would have threatened had the United States adhered to the Nicaragua route, for the Nicaragua route is much longer, and the longer the route the greater the liability to injury of the canal by earthquakes. The national game of baseball is constantly achieving new triumphs. A match was played in Berlin recently for the result of the American womens club, and was dignified by some unusual features. The nines were headed respectively by Count von Bernstorff, the German ambassador to the United States, and Capt. Heath of the British embassy, while the remaining players were chosen from the United States embassy and from the American colony in the German capital. An expert in the difficult art of exterminating mosquitoes claims at last to have found an easy way. As their breeding places are in swampy lands or in stagnant water and the season for their breeding is in April and May, permanganate of potash scattered over these places will be an effective destroyer. He claims that two applications will do the work. It is a little late for the present season, but there ought to be a demand for the mosquito exterminator in New Jersey next spring. There is an impression among many people that Americans are not a law-biding nation. But we observe that whenever the 15th of September comes along straw hats are removed from the urban population as if by magic. It makes little difference whether the weather is hot or not, says the New York Post. The 15th of September may be hotter than the 15th of August, but public opinion, which is the basis of morality and of law, ordains that on this particular day the straw hat must go. The arrest and fining of a Chicago chauffeur for letting the engine of his car "run" for an hour while he waited for a patron calls attention to a noise nuisance with which the authorities have been slow to deal. Of the imported bathtubs of Chili during 1908 Germany supplied 45 per cent, England 38 per cent, and the United States only 15 per cent. It would seem that by a little trade diligence the cleanliness of our South American brethren might be brought nearer to our own prosperity. The latest arctic explorer is to use trained polar bears. This is a great idea. He can come back and use the team in polite vadeville. The highest court in the state of Maine has sustained as constitutiona' the Bar Harbor ordinance prohibiting the use of the streets of that seaside resort by automobiles. So far as the constitution of the state of Maine is concerned, the Bar Harbor decision gives the authorities full power to make automobiles mindful of the rights of the public. DOCTOR'S PRESCRIPTION. Bulletproof Cure Rheumatic Palms, Also Splendid System Builder. Go to any good prescription drugist and get the following and make ingredients he will get them from his wholesale house. One ounce compound syrup of Baraparilla, and one ounce Toris compound. Add these to a half pint of first-class whiskey, and use a tablespoonful before each meal and at bed time. The bottle must be well shaken each time. The quantity is one of the most effective known. The restorative action will be felt after the first few does. PROOF POSITIVE.

Women who suffer with backache, bearing down pains, dizzy spells and that constant feeling of dulness and tiredness, will find hope in the advice of Mrs Mary Hinson of 2 Mary Sterling, Ky. "That I not used Don't Duncan Pillle, I have that constant feeling of dullness and tiredness, will find hope in the advice of Mrs Mary Hinson of 2 St. Mary St., St. Mt Sterling, Ky. "Ha I not used Doon's Kidney Pills, I be able I would not be living today," say Mrs. Hinson.

Mistake Somewhere A story comes from a Kentucky town that is worth repeating. There lives there a woman who says that she has immediate communion with the Almighty, and now and then deivers to those of common clay a message that she has received from or from a deceased estimate take on a very materialia tie hue does not alter their effective nausea, in her opinion. One day she went into the office of a well known attorney and approached him solemnly as one about to reveal an awe-inspiring secret. "The Lord sent me to you for $25," she announced. The attorney looked up and smiled. "That must be a mistake," he replied, blainly, "because the Lord knows I have not got it." Celestial communication was there upon broken启 As to the Hessian Fly The Hessian fly is a German product which was conceived in iniquity and born in sauerkraut. It is a long, rangy fly with a bite like a steel trap, and it lays a pale blue, oblong egg at the rate of 30,000 an hour. The Hessian fly will eat anything from decayed custard pie to a glass inkwell, but its wings are hard to see. It fatgant. This bird can perform a two-step on sticky fly paper without crooking its toes, and is proof against rough on rats, the daisy fly killer, and a strychnine hypodermic. No Hessian fly was ever known to die of anything but old age, which accounts for the color of its whiskers. If it ever was, it was probably removed by the undertaker—Manchester (Ia.) Press. In the Same Boat A magazine contributor, being hard pressed by his creditors, recently wrote to his editor: "Please send check at once, as my gas bill is due." The candid editor replied in this brief response: "So is mine. God help us all." SOME HARD KNOCKS The injurious action of Coffee on the heart of many persons is well known by physicians to be caused by caffeine. This is the drug found by chemists in coffee and tea. A woman suffered a long time with heart disease, and finally her doctor told her she must give up coffee, as that was the principal cause of the trouble. She writes: "My heart was so weak it could not do its work properly. My husband would sometimes have to carry me from the table, and it would seem that I would never breathe again. Coffee was causing the weakness of my heart. He said I must stop it, but it seemed could not give it up until I was down in bed with nervous prostration. "For eleven weeks I lay there and suffered. Finally Husband brought home some Postum and I quit coffee and started new and right. Slowly I got well. Now I do not have any headaches, nor those spells with weak heart. We know it is Postum that helped me. The Dr. said the other day, I never thought you would be what you are! I used to weigh 29 pounds and now I weigh 158. "Postum has done much for me and I would not go back to coffee again for any money, for I believe it would kill me if I kept at it. Postum must be well bolted according to directions on pkg, then it has a rich flavour and with cream is fine. I have been in pigs. "There was a Reason." Read, read the whole message. A may one appears from the top to the bottom. They are framing him, and full of humour. TAFT CABINET. BALLINGER. Q.K. PINCHOT. Q.K. TAFT CONSERVATION SPEECH. Minneapolis Journal. MME. STEINHEIL NEAR VICTORY MME. STEINHEIL NEAR VICTORY WOMAN'S COOK IS STRONG WITH NEBS FOR DEFENSE. Prosecution's Chain of Evidence Broken—New Investigation May Be Ordered. Paris—The testimony Wednesday in the trial of Mme. Steinhell, charged with the murder of her husband and her stepmother, was distinctly favorable to the defendant. Marietta Wolf, the cook in the Steinhell household, and her son, Alexandre, whose appearance was awaived with profound interest, threw no new light on the mystery, but by a further mass of contradictions strengthened the impression in the accused woman's favor. Mme. Steinhell's nurse also retracted her previous deposition in which she expressed the opinion that the defendant's illness after the crime was simulated, and Maurice Borderel, a wealthy merchant, whom the state assumes Mme. Steinhell the state certified to his absolute belief in her innocence. The state's circumstantial case against Mme. Steinhell seems to be rapidly breaking down and it is already rumored that the trial may be abandoned and a new investigation ordered. INTENT ON LYNCHING NEGRO Alleged Murderer of Annie Pelley Narrowly Escapes from Hands of Mobs—Excitement Intense.

At Dongola, open threats of violence were raised, and the prisoner was spirited away in a buggy over country roads. Crowds had poured into Calro Wednesday from surrounding villages, and open threats of lynching are being made on every hand. All day the town was in a state of turmoll, and two general attacks were made on the jail, in addition to the many attempts at gathering together a mob strong enough in numbers to carry the prison. Hypnotized Man Dies. Somerville, N. J.—As the result of a hypnotic experiment Robert Simpson is dead and Prof. Arthur Everton of Newark, the hypnotist, is under arrest.

HURLED TO DEATH IN AUTO Four Lives Are Lost When Speeding Machine Goes Into Chicago River. Chicago.-Three persons, perhaps more, including at least one woman, lost their lives in the Chicago river Sunday night when an automobile in which they were riding, plunged through an open draw of the Jackson boulevard bridge and sank. One of the men passengers, in a desperate effort to save himself and a woman companion, swam a block down the river with the woman clinging with her arms around his neck. Almost unassisted, identification of three of the victims was made Monday night through the report of the disappearance of Miss Beatrice Shapiro, 1102 South Paulina street, and Max Cohen, 3214 West Thirteenth street, and of the chauffeur of the submerged car, Ernest Camp, 2918 Prairie avenue. Romance played a part in the tragedy, for relatives of Miss Shapiro and Max Cohen say that the two may have been about to elope when they started on the ride that led to the river and their death. Persons who saw the heavy touring car fall into the water believe it held six passengers, including several women. The high speed at which the car was running and the failure of the chauffeur to regard the danger signals are responsible for the catastrophe. The watchman on the bridge and the motor vehicles at the spot where the touring car went over the abutment agree that the red danger signals were displayed and that the warning gong was rising. GERMANY NAVY NOW SECOND Washington. — Naval officers sat up and took notice when it was officially announced by the naval intelligence officers that the fighting sea strength of the eight powers of the world shows that Germany has jumped from fourth place over France and the United States and has taken second place, behind Great Britain.

Daring Attempt to Loot Train Chicago—In a daring attempt to loot the Chicago butter and egg special on the Chicago, Milwaukee & Puget Sound railroad robbers Sunday shot and dangerously wounded A. J. Jackson, a brakeman, at Round Lake, Wiz. Posses from Waukegan and Libertyville are scouring the Illinois-Wisconsin border for the highwaymen. The robbers cut off the last five cars from the train while it lay on a sliding at the lonely station of Round Lake. They ran two fast motor trucks up alongside the cars to carry away their body. Just as they were near the car Jackson came running from the cab toward the engine. He saw two men at work trying to break open the doors. With no other weapon than an iron bar he suddenly confronted them and demanded that they surrender. The men responded with a volley of bullets. One shot struck Jackson in the head and he fell unconscious. Mrs. Roosevelt Starts Home.

CARTERS LITTLE LIVER Genuine Must Bear Fae-Simile Signature Prove Tuberculosis Communicable to Human Beings. Believed that Indianola Case Establishes Theory, as Child Had Been Supplied With Milk From an Infected Cow. Indianola, Ia., Nov. 12—Because the baby of one of his customers, which had been fed on the milk of one certain cow, had been pronounced by Dr. E. L. Baker to have tuberculosis, Mr. Ed. Greenfield, a dairyman near Indianola, sent for Drs. Haworth and Frank to apply the tuberculin test to his entire herd. The veterarians were ignorant when making the test that suspicion rested on any cow in the herd, but when they closed the test they pronounced forty-six out of the forty-seven cows to be sound, and the forty-seventh, the cow on whose milk the sick baby had been nourished, to "be afflicted with the disease known as tuberculosis." The father of the child had bought the cow, a grade Holstein a few months ago from a prominent Des Moines dairy herd. When he secured employment in Omaha about the first of October he sold the cow to the Greenfield dairy, with the stipulation that so long as his family remained in Indiana it was to be supplied with milk from this cow, as the baby had become accustomed to it and they did not want to make a change. When Dr. Baker diagnosed the sickness of the child as tuberculosis, he received Learning the conditions he notified Mr. Greenfield, who immediately had not only the one cow, but the entire herd tested, with the above result. The herd had been tested about a year ago and pronounced healthy. The infected cow had been in the herd only a short time. She will be slaughtered subject to post mortem inspection. There has been considerable interest taken in the bovine tuberculosis question by cattle breeders around Indianola during the past two or three years. Most of the herds of breeding cattle have been "tested out." The result of the recent Greenfield test only confirms the claims of veterinarians and other scientists that tuberculosis is communicable to man-eating animals. The bulk of infected cows, and that tuberculin is reliable as a diagnostic agent in the hands of competent operators. In no case where a cow has been condemned on test in this vicinity have the government agents failed to find proof of the disease on post mortem inspection. Miller Heada Iowa Branch. Des Moines—A. C.

Westcott and his sister, Bernice, formerly of this city, but now of California, a business building and Main street property here worth $25,000. Many years ago the grandfather of the Wescott children owned the property at 112 East Main street. The late J. F. Meeker and Timothy Brown, now of Denver, Colo., secured the property and later Meeker acquired the property, paid the taxes, kept up the insurance and collected the rents. His ownership was not questioned until about three years ago, when the Wescott's entered suit, alleging their ownership by right of inheritance. On the hearing of the case two years ago the property was decreed by the lower court to belong to the Wescotts. Now the question of occupying claim is raised in all probability, and the court will be asked to determine what is due the Meeker estate for the improvements to the property.

BIG FOUR OFFICIALS ADMIT WAR RINER DEFALCATION IS ENORMOUS. MYSTERY WHERE ALL WENT Alleged Blackmail and Speculative Losses Do Not Account Fully for the Large Amount—First Estimates Too Conservative. Cincinnati.—The examination of Charles L. Warriner, formerly local treasurer of the Big Four railroad, by his superiors and others, was resumed Tuesday when rumors among men in touch with railroad affairs in this city gained currency that the shortage in the finances of that road because of the defaulction of Warriner may yet reach $2,000,000. An official statement confirmed the rumors that the shortage probably would reach $600,000. That the total may go far above that figure is conceded. Officials of the Big Four District that they are astonished at the revelations by Warriner and they are pressing him for additional details of how he spent the money, the sums alleged to have been paid in blackmail and lost in unprofitable speculation leaving a large amount for which there is no accounting. Warringer asserts that he has not a dollar left, the transfer to the railroad company of his home and stocks of various corporations in which he was interested having made him penless.

The United States Circuit Court for the Southern District of New York—sittit in New York City—has just awaived to the Carter Medicine Company a decree which again sustains the company's exclusive right to use the red package for liver pills. By the terms of the decree, it is, among other things: Adjudged that the Carter Medicine Company is the owner of the sole and exclusive right to the use of red colored wrappers and labels upon said small, round packages of liver pills of the style described in the bill of complaint; said right having been acquired by the prior adoption of said style manual of package for liver pills the company has acquired more than thirty years ago, and established by the continuous and exclusive use of the same in constantly increasing quantities by said predecessors and by the complainant, the Carter Medicine Company, itself, from the time of their said adoption until the present day. The decision just announced is perhaps the most important and far-reaching by reason of the character of the tribunal. No Court in the country stands higher. —National Drug Agent, St. Louis, Mo.

"I am seventy-seven years old, and some years ago I was taken with an ooze head to foot. I was sick for six months and what I suffered tongue could not tell. I could not sleep day or night because of that dreadful itching; when I did sleep it was from shea exhaustion. I was one mass of irritation; it was even in my scalp. The doctor's medicine seemed to make me worse and I was almost out of my mind. I got a set of the Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent.

One of the best known and most capable choralists of church choirs in Greater New York is Professor P. Albert Myers, choralist of the choir of the Concord Baptist church. When Professor Myers took charge of the choir several years ago it was largely disorganized as to arrangement of voices and for want of a sufficient number of trained singers to make the singing at the services of the church effective. Professor Myers on taking charge began at once to reorganize the choir, procure new singers and institute regular rehearsals. In this he has been eminently successful, so much so that today the choir of Concord Baptist Church of Christ in Brooklyn is said to be one of the best among Afro-American churches in PROFESSOR P. ALBERT MYERS. Greater New York. Professor Myers believes in preparation and to that end has prepared himself both in voice culture and string music, studying under some of the best masters. He is peculiarly fitted as a teacher of sight singing and has been quite successful with the violin. He is the originator of several grouped choruses, octets, etc., and is chairman of the entertainment committee of the Carlton avenue branch of the Brooklyn Y. M. C. A. A pleasing demonstration of Professor Myers' ability as an arranger of music for great occasions was witnessed a few nights ago at the Baptist temple of Brooklyn, where he had charge of the music at the memorial exercises in honor of Dr. William T. Dixon. There were six choirs represented, numbering in the aggregate about 125 voices. Professor Myers had everything so arranged that every choir understood exactly what a simple motion of the baton meant. Besides being musical, Professor Myers is also greatly interested in athletics. He is one of the leading players on the Y. M. C. A. teams and is good at bowling, running, jumping and basketball. PLAN OF EXPOSITION. Afro-Americans to Celebrate Fifty Years of Freedom. Major R. R. Weight has given out the following plan for the celebration of the fifteenth anniversary of the freedom of the Negro race in America in 1913. Object.-To commemorate the fifteenth anniversary of the enunciation of the American Negro. Exhibits.-Products of all classes by American Negroes, products of Negroes in Porto Rico and Cuba, products of Negroes in Haiti and Santo Domingo, products of all classes by Negroes in Africa-viz. by those in Sierra Leone, Liberia and Abyssinia, by those in the sphere of England's influence, by those in the sphere of France's influence, by those in the sphere of Belgium's influence; pan-African congress, constituting representative Negroes from all parts of the world. How Financed.-By sale of American emancipation semicentennial certificates at $1, $10 and $100; by each southern state equipping and furnishing its own Negro building; by an appropriation from congress. PARTY LINES FADING. Negroes Throughout Nation Need New Birth of Civic Consciousness. The Rev. R. C. Ransom in a stirring sermon at Bethel church, New York, a few nights ago said: "Negroes pay taxes through rents and directly through the ownership of much property. Yet upon the police force, in the fire department, in the parks, etc., we are practically without representation in the army of city employees. In municipal affairs party names should count for less and less. The Negroes throughout this nation need a birth of civic consciousness. These fusion or reform administrations have had small use for our people. What we want is not a pat on the back and an election day cigar, but hundreds of thousands of dollars of the city's money for services performed as employees in the various departments. We want influence with the school board, the police, fire, park and water departments. We do not want political meetings in our churches, but churches which will meet the politicians with righteous demands." New Mansion For Walcott at Malden.

"He has achieved success who has lived long, laughed often, loved much, who has galded the most pure women, the respect of intelligent men, and the love of little children who has filled his piche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem or a rescued soul; who has never laced appreciation of earth's beauty nor failed to express it; who has all ways housed for the best in others and given the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory be a blessing." - Bessie A. Stanley. A good use for sleeplessness is to wet a towel and apply to the back of the neck pressing it hard against the base of the brain and fastening over this cloth to prevent too rapid evaporation. The effect will be prompt and pleasant, cooling the brain and inducing a sweet and peaceful slumber. Warm water is better than cold for the purpose. This remedy will prove useful to people suffering from overwork, excitement or anxiety. Good Cough Medicine for Children and Grown Folks, Too. "We could hardly do without Chamberlain's Cough Remedy," says Mrs. Flora Despain of Bloyd," Ky. "I found it to be so good for the croup and have used it for years. I can heartily recommend it for cough, colds and croup in children and grown folks, too." The above shows the implicit confidence that many mothers place in Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, a confidence based on many years' experience in the use of it. No one need hesitate to use this remedy for it contains no chloroform, opium or other narcotics and may be given to a child as confidently as to an adult.

When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on their places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing was possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds; rapidly achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that theirs is the same or "just as good") or referred to PORO. We advise you to use only PORO Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind.) See that the name PORO is on every box, not genuine without it. Prepared only by A. M. POPE.
