John Crisp, the Democrat who gave Tandy letters of praise sometime during 1870. A few years ago he was opposed to the Jim Crow Car, now he comes forth and wants to chain the Negro in separate car. Is it possible that Col. Crisp is in his dotage? Yet in the face of a few misguided Negroes who call themselves Democrats, Col. John said: "If I were a Negro, I'd be a Republican; if I were an Irishman, I'd be a Democrat." Very good. Let the Negro Democrats of the Jefferson Climb cut this out and keep it before them constantly, so that they may always remember what Col Crisp thinks of them. SUNSHINE CHARITY CLUB. The Sunshine Charity Club which was organized during the month of September is doing some good work. Several families who were in destitute circumstances have been relieved, and food and clothing give them which was highly appreciated. Among those relieved were: Mrs. Moore, 818S. Ewing avenue; Mrs. Thomas, 2219 Papin street; Mrs. L. Moore, 2826 Papin street. Mrs. Bettie L. Eaton, Pres. We received a letter from the National Grand Secretary. Next week you will see an ad from him. Would to God the Grand Officers of Missouri had some active life in them. Last year the Palladium showed to the world that the Order of U. B. F. was a live order, but the present Grand Officers wants free doings. Let them get the Kentucky Standard and see if there is free doings. The Negro Jefferson Club wants a new eustodian for that building. The big fellow has resigned. J. W. Wheeler, when D. D. G. M. of the U. B. F. and S. M. T. put to work three Temples and a Lodge, Wyoming No. 23. Mrs. Jennie Howard was placed charge. Next week we will show the result. The Order in the State wants an organ like the Kentucky Standard is for the Order in Kentucky. Let the G. M. and other officers see to it. The Paladium stands ready, but no free work, don't you see!

Loving woras will cost but little, Journeying up the hill of life; But they make the weak and weary Stronger, braver for the strife. Do you count them only trifles? What to earth are sun and rain? Never was a kind word wasted, Never one was said in vain. When the cares of life are many, And its burdens heavy grow, Think of weak ones close beside you— If you love them, tell them so. What you count of little value Has an almost magic power. And beneath their cheering sunshine Hearts will blossom like a flower. So, as up life's hill we journey, Let use scatter all the way Kindly words, for they are sunshine In the dark and cloudy day. Grudge no loving word or action As along through life you go. There are weary ones around you— If you love them, tell them so. —Mollie L. Clayton APPENDICITIS. To succumb to it at once without delay: Or the common trash diseases of the day. That has often jarred our inner organs some: Midway down in your intestine, Its intertices infestin' Is a little alley, black and dark as night: Or a soldier button swallowed with your ole: Once located never doubt it; You would never be without it; It's a fad among society that's gay; Old heart failure and paresis Have decamped and gone to pieces And dyspepsia has fallen by the way. Then, stand back there, diabetes, For here comes appendicitis. With a brood of minor troubles on the wing; So, vermiform, here's hoping, You'll withstand all drastic doping, And earn the appellation, "Uncrowned King." Those Postoffice Vipers Including Immcalculate Andy. Howard and Pat — will be out of a job this coming spring. Wonder what jobs they had their eye on in the post-office? When men of the stamp of those who formed the basis of charges against the Postmaster band themselves together to correct the morals of their superiors in the community, it suggests the question? "How about their own morals, past life and present standing in the community?" "Does any one who knows Andy McGrew, mark him as a standard of morality?" Does any person who knows W. W. Howard, or who has ever had a five minutes' talk with him, rate that man as their standard of morality? Does any one who knows Jack Tatum des're to set him up on the pinnacle of—the standard—for a moral man? We think not. Not for public motives or any other reason. Does any person who knows Pat Clark as he is known, desire to point to him and say, "He is our standard of a moral man?" Would you like to say to your children, pattern after this man? --- Look at each of these men square in the eye, engage them in general conversation, "for they are an intellectual set in their own way," and if you never before realized the character of the men responsible for the false attack on the Postmaster, you will shudder when you think how it is possible for such bold methods to be concocked. They have by their action brought discredit and rebuke on themselves, and all honorable people will set the seal of disapproval on these methods. Such men are no great credit to any party, and we know of our own knowledge that not a man of them has the confidence of his neighbors sufficient to carry the ward or precinct in which he live on a fair election, and a man is always best known by his neighbors. None of these men individually ever exerted any influence in the Republican party. Not one of them could convince a stranger by his personal appearance or conversation that he was aught but what those who know them best—know of them. A tramp can wreck a train or destroy human life, but who can rebuild when once destroyed? An evil-minded person can tear down but they seldom rise to the position of building up; in fact, such persons remain what nature has made them—base, vile and ungrateful—such is the life of the evil-minded. JACK TATUM. Mr. Tatum, employed in the Railway Mail Service, as out in a statement last Sunday explaining that his connection in the attack against the Postmaster was out of public motives. We did not know that this man Tatum had been called upon to give out a public or private statement, but it's a safe proposition that we don't miss our guess very far if at some future time this—public motive—young man is not called upon to give out a statement, as is a statement. There are a few passages in this young man's life that will hardly justify the belief that he is the proper persons to assume the—public motive—act. We guess Jack Tatum won't be Superintendent of Mails yet awhile. We will consider—public motives—in our next. A man is known by the company he keeps. Frequenters of Two Frolics Daily Standard Theater are hardly the ones to pose as censors of the morals of decent men. When walking through the grass in summer time we look for snakes, but the snake that crawls on its belly always gives a hissing warning before making an attack; in that respect, the real snake is superior to the scandal-monering snake who always seeks to strike its victim in the dark. When associates of habitual criminals and frequenters of Two Frolies Daily assume to correct the morals of their superiors, decent people begin to wonder what can be their motives. In the case Postmaster Baumhoff it was not—public motives—as one of the would-be imminaleulate follows claim, but as every one who has followed the case knows, selfish motives. Try again—public motives—alias Raymond. Howard, on his recent to Washington, telegraphed a jolly to his boon boon companion, Andy: "Have seen—Main—Sure to win. See Clark and others and send me some money." And we still wonder if those who put up, including the man at stamp window, have realized on their investment? Public Motives Jack, alias John J. Raymond, should take a looking glass and see himself as others see him. How about that girl you used to write to under an assumed name? A certain ex-member of the City Council while on a European trip a few years ago, formed the acquaintance of a young girl in London; became so smitten with her that it was the talk of his associates, and it was not in the Poor House either. Andy McGrew and W. W. Howard have been associated together for many years in an endeavor to carry the ward in which they live at primavr conventions. They are, however, so well-known that no one has looked seriously on their nurturing efforts to foist themselves on the party. Men of their calibre seldom rise above the slums in political methods. We are still wondering if the man at the stamp window has realized on his investment, of the loans made for a good cause? That such vile methods by such unprincipled persons could gain the promirence achieved as the ganges of character and scandal-mongers who have apring up in this city against Federal officeholders in order to prevent reappointment is one of the wonders of the times. If the parties implicated in such work applied themselves to advance in a decent way, their own interests, they might have achieved fortunes. The Postmaster seems to have smoked a bunch of such fellows out of their holes. Those who were implicated in slanderous attacks against other decent applicants for Federal office in this city are known, and will receive due attention at the proper time. Meanwhile the rank and file of the Republican party in this city and decent people generally will ever remember those implicated in such nefarious work. Her Engagement. Kitty—Constan e is wearing a diamond ring on her engagement finger I bet she's only trying to fool folks. Maude—Oh, it's engagement, all right; she told me about it. The engagement is with her dentist, you know, and she put the ring on for fear she might forget.—Boston Transcript. Rule for Success. "What is your rule of business—your maxim?" we ask of the Wall street baron. "Very simple," he answers. "I pay for something that I can't get, with money that I haven't got, and then sell what I never had for more than it ever cost me."—Louisville Post. Not as Bad as He Feared. "Do you believe the world is growing wickered?" "Well, I'm not sure. When one of my neighbors shot a hen that belonged in my coop I began to have my doubts. But when he tossed the fowl over the fence, I felt a good deal better."—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Proverb of the Improre ident. "You can't eat your cake and have it, too?" "Dat's right," answered Mr. Erastus Pinkley, "but on de yuthuh hand, if you eats yoh chickens you doesn't run no risk o' habbin' em stole."—Washington Star. He Lived in Hopes. "Bobby," cried Tadley to his young hopeful, angrily, "my father used to whip me when I behaved as badly as you are doing." "Well," answered Bobby, thoughtfully, "I hope I'll never have to tell my little boy that."—Tit-Bits. One Way to Help. "Your daughter is a great help in your household work, isn't she?" "Yes. She stays away from home so much."—Brooklyn Life. Gentle Reminder. Thought He Know Better. She—It takes all kinds of people to make the world. He- Not for me. It takes only one. —Chicago Tribune. Safer. Perhaps. "Bellingham's religion is like his property," said Trivvet to Dicer. "How's that?" "It's all in his wife's name."—Jude She Did Answer it. "Didn't you hear the doorbell, Bridget?" "Yes, mum." "Well, why don't you answer it?" "I did answer it; I said: 'Oh fudgel' mum."—Yonkers Statesman. Why It Didn't. Madge—Did that novel you've been reading end by the hero and heroine living happily ever afterward? Marjorie—Why, no. The author married them in the early part of the book—Judge. A Linguist. "They tell me, professor, you have mastered all the modern tongues." "Well, yes; all but my wife's and her mother's."—Pennsylvania Punch Bowl. She Knew. "Bowling up, I should judge," retorted the up-to-date wife.—Chicago Post. Honeymoon Measure: He—Three weeks ought to be long enough for our wedding trip. She—But do you think you can spend all your money in that time? —N. Y. Herald. Double Action. "But why do you carry two watches?" His Intentions Were Good. Wantanton—Did Ezamark succeed in trying all the grip remedies his friends recommended? Duzno—No, the process was interrupted midway by a funeral. Wantanton—Whose funeral? Duzno — Ezamark's. — Los Angeles Herald. Correct Estimate. Hatterson—That woman next door must have a tolerably correct notion of the partner of her joys and sorrows. Mrs. Hatterson—Why? Haterson—I went over there to get a rake, and she said her husband was out—Town Topics. Unlimited Supply. He—I've just been reading about a man whose living expenses are only ten cents a day. I wonder how he manages. She—Oh, I suppose he gets a free sample package of every new kind of breakfast food—N. Y. Journal. An Irishman's View. "No," replied the Irishman; "only for pleasure." "You seem to want a fight?" "That's what I said," returned the Irishman.—Chicago Post. Before Their Time. First Chappie—I wonder now, Cholie, how the donkey ever came to be used as the—er—emblem of stupidity?" Second Chappie (with a yawn)—Don't know, I'm sure, death boy; must have been before our day."—Tit-Bits. Two Points of View. "If there is one man I like more than another," said the optimist, "it is a man that I can trust." "My ideal man," rejoined the pessimist, "is one who is willing to trust me."—Chicago Daily News. From Boston. Perhaps. "Don't you think she has a very distingue air?" "Yes," said the sad-looking young man. "Judging from the chill she produces, I should call it a liquid air."—Washington Star. Weak Woman. Mr. Gumpps—Of course. They can't make so much noise.—N. Y. Weekly. A Reluctant Admission. "How is your boy getting on at school?" "Pretty well. We is beginning to admit that the Trojan war was almost as big a thing in its way as a football game."—Washington Star. "I don't know. Did you say anything to annoy him?" "Certainly not. I just happened to remark that Christmas was almost here."-Chicago Post. Culture's Capital. "Boston considers itself America's intellectual center, doesn't it?" "Worse than that. It considers itself America's intellectual circumference."—Town Topics. Suburban Chat. Joe—And horseless carriages out your way? Jim—Horseless? I guess so; but we call them mule teams.—Detroit Free Press. Report Was Well Founded. Mrs. Dearborn—They tell me your cook is an angel. Mrs. Wabash—I rec' on she is. She tried to light the fire with kerosene this morning.—Yonkers Statesman.

Managers [Portrait of a man] This is the last opportunity to join the Labor Union of American Federation of Labor which entitles you to work with all trade unions in the city of St. Louis, and this is why you, my colored brother, should join organized labor. Where attacked and denounced as scarcely any other institution ever has been, the unions have thriven and grown in the face of opposition. This healthy vitality has been due to the fact that they were a genuine product of social needs, indispensable as a protest and struggle against the abuses of industrial government and inevitable as a consequence of that consciousness of strength inspired by the concentration of numbers. Under the new conditions of industry they have been as now, admitted by almost all candid minds, instruments of progress. Not to speak of the material advantages they have gained for workingmen, they have developed powerful sympathies among them, and taught them lessons of self-sacrifice in the interest of their brethren, and still more of their successors. They have infused a new spirit of independence and self-respect. They have brought some of the best men to the front and given them the ascendency due to their personal qualities and desirable in the interests of society. Yours truly, U. S. GRANT WHITE, President of this Laborers' Protective Union. WM. CARSON, 2d Vice-Pres. L. W. VINNEGAR, Secretary. Address of Union Headquarters---- 806 North 14th street. SELF-IMPROVEMENT FEDERATION.

McGrew the Originator of Many Foul Schemes. ANDY McGREW AS A MAN. Probably no one man in St. Louis, or any other place for that matter, ever tried to attend to as many people's business as has Andy McGrew. When Mr. Hayes was post master in St. Louis McGrew tried to dictate numerous shifts among employees, which caused no small amount of discord and trouble. We have nothing personally against McGrew, but years of acquaintance with this man has caused us as well as numbers of others to grow tired of his unceasing and obnoxious ways, and we mean to uncover this man and let the public see him as he really is. For twenty years Andy McGrew has been one continual source of trouble to office holders in St. Louis, and he has ever used a shield to protect himself in case of bad results. In his present venture to shine as a purifier McGrew has shoved one W. W. Howard to the front as the real accuser. Howard is a man densely ignorant and his mental condition will not permit him to see the danger rising from such serious affairs. For the past eight months employees of the Federal building have been noting the meetings composed of McGrew, Pat Clark, Tatum and Howard, held in the corridor of the Custom House just outside the sub-treasury door. These meetings have become the chief topic among the employees, it being evident that some plot or scheme was under way. These meetings have been known to last from ten minutes to an hour, and were held almost daily. During this same period, including the present time, women from the Post-Office and elsewhere have called McGrew at the sub-treasury daily, One young woman calls from one to four times each day, on the 5th day of December 1902 she called six times on the imaculate Andy. These facts are known and can easily be verified by a call on the second floor of the Custom House. A personal friend of Mcgrew said in referring to him "I believe it impossible for Andy to tell the truth and if he should tell the truth by accident I think he would apologize. Why does the treasury Department and the Civil Service Commission tolerate in their employee a man so putrid as Mcgrew? The malice of Clark and Tatum and the ignorant action of Howard are indirectly the products of the brain of the shrewd and slippery Andy. Mcgrew is an ingrate and a seandal monger and the people want no more of him, he has long since become a stench to the nostrils of the public and a hindrance to progressive humanity. $4 to $8 a day guaranteed to every person sending their name and address to Scott Remedy Co., P.

Representing nothing on God's earth now And naught in the water below it, As a pledge of a nation that's dead and gone Keep it, dear friend, and show it. Show it to those who will lend an ear To the tale this paper can tell Of liberty born of the patriot's dream, Of the storm-cradled nation that fell. Too poor to possess the precious ores, And too much of a stranger to borrow, We issued to-day our promise to pay, And hoped to redeem it to-morrow. The days rolled on and weeks became years, But our coffers were empty still; Coin was so rare that the treasury quaked If a dollar should drop in the till. But the faith that was in us was strong indeed, And our poverty well discerned; And these little checks represented the pay That our suffering volunteers earned. We knew it had hardly a value in gold, Yet as gold our soldiers received it; It gazed in our eyes with a promise to pay, And each patriot soldier believed it. But our boys thought little of price or pay, Or of bills that were overdue; We knew if it brought us bread today, It was the best our poor country could do. Keep it—it tells our history over, From the birth of its dreams to the last; Modest, and born of the angel of hope, Like the hope of success it has passed. BE NOT DECEIVED TO THE COLORED PEOPLE OF AMERICA King of all Hair Tonics, "OZONO." --- Recognizing the fact that there are many SO-CALLED hair-growers and hair-straighteners now on the market, and knowing to a certainty that many of these are franks pure and simple, we wish to make a straight-forward, honest statement to the colored race through this great paper. In the year 1871 our late secretary, Mrs. S. M. Moore, through a fortunate circumstance, acquired the receipt for OZONO. It was not offered for sale or purchase to any extent until 1875, when it was put upon the market and met with marked success. After a thorough test by the colored people of that time it was pronounced an honest, legitimate remedy, true to all that was claimed for it, and worthy in every respect of the confidence of every member of the colored race, because they found it to cause the hair to grow long and straight, soft and fine, and as beautiful as an April morning. Now, whenever a genuine article appears upon the market there are always a number of people who imitate and make capital out of the merits of other people's goods. Seeing our marked success, numerous firms have entered the market, offering hair-growers and hair-straighteners, many of which are worthless, causing the hair to fall out and doing great damage to the hair and scalp, and the colored people are buying these spurious compounds, which are filled with animal fats, and do the hair more harm than good. To these let us sound a warning—be careful what you use on your hair. Do not be deceived by flaring advertisements and big words. Buy the King of all Hair Tonies. OZONO. with an iron-clad guarantee to do all that $50.00. Now, we ask you a plain question forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with wet true to all we claim for them?
