Cast of Actors in "Social Glass," the $1,000 Drama to be Given for the Benefit of the Y. M. C. A., at 14th Street Theater, April 27th.
The struggle of the Young Men's Christian Association to pay for their beautiful building, located at 2633 Lucas avenue, is to be given a substantial boost by a number of public-spirited citizens who have volunteered their services for the benefit of the Building Fund of the Association which is very much in need of replenishment.
The Association is exerting itself to raise $1,000 by May 1st, and for that purpose, a grand dramatic entertainment will be given under the direction of Mr. Jas. W. Grant, at 14th Street Theater, Monday, April 27th. "The Social Glass," a strong moral drama, will be produced by a company of distinguished amateurs.
Miss Anna Bridgewater, Miss Vella Crawford and Miss Lottie Bell; Mr. Will S. Grant, Mr. R. A. Hudlin, Mr. Wm. Huffman, Mr. L. W. Harris, Prof. Jno. B. Vashon and Mr. Jas. W. Grant. Mr. Grant will be assisted in the management of the play by Mr. R. A. Hudlin, Stage Manager; Prof. J. Arthur Freeman, Chorus Director; Prof. H. W. Williams, Director of Orchestra; Mr. Geo B. Jones Promptor.
In the many charges he has held, his success has been so pronounced that during the Bishops' Council, held in Greensboro, N. C., he, above all others, was selected as manager of new department in the West. Since the Doctor has been in our city, he won a host of friends by his Christian and gentlemanly bearing.
We are creditably informed that Miss Zenobia Muse is visiting friends with one eye open for matrimony. Whoever he is will get a precious jewel.
Mulam Katie L. Boswell, of the B. Y. P. U., of the First Baptist Church, will present the New Second Baptist Church, of Terre Haute, Ind., with a handsome pulpit cover, to show her appreciation of the hospitality tendered her while there last year.
Mrs. Sallie F. Louis, 4264 Kennerly avenue, is contemplating taking a trip East this summer. We hope for her safe return.

(2) Never has missed an issue.
(3) No fake subscription list to "catch" honest advertisers.
(4) More bona fine subscribers than any other Negro paper in St. Louis or State.
(5) The ONLY Negro newspaper published in St. Louis as the organ of the Republican party.
(6) Because it is the official organ of Wright Cuney Political Club.

The Palladium is now the leading Negro paper in St. Louis and soon promises to be not only the leading Negro paper in the State but in the United States.
Under our Managing Editor, Miss Kate Johnson, we are rapidly improving. Our entire staff is to be changed, and we have an entire new set of Reporters who will endeavor to make the paper interesting.
Our new staff is as follows: J. W. Wheeler, Proprietor and Business Manager; Miss Kate Johnson, Managing Editor; Mr. Will D. McKoin, City Editor; Miss Anna O. Parram, Society Editor; Mr. James Huston, Religious Editor; Mr. J. Myron Crawford, Sporting Editor; Mr. James Hayes, Chief Editorial Department.
Politics.
No one knew there was an election in St. Louis, only a few janitors of the Republican party and the ex-Democrats that came back.
These were all young goslings in politics; they can do without the men who brought victory to the party in former days—IN A HORN.
When the Republican party in St. Louis places a man at the head of the Central Committee who has been a true Republican, and a man who recognizes others who have been to the front and done good work, until then the Republican party will be the loser.
Of what force was the Republic janitor in the 14th ward, when the better class knew nothing about the election?
Of what use was the Old Black Man and the notorious Bradbury to the Republican party in St. Louis?
Where was the Wright Cuney Club in this city last Tuesday? It gave way to the new so-called clubs.
What was the result? You ought to know.
Where was the bulk of the Republican party in St. Louis? Gone fishing.
What part did the Palladium play in the last election? None at all.
A Word to Mr. Bartholdt.
It has been said, and correctly, too, that "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." The same may fittingly apply to Mr. Bartholdt. George Berman, a brother-in-law of Congressman Bartholdt, is setting up a Patronage Brokers' Machine in the St. Louis Custom House, and it seems necessary for applicants for federal positions to have the endorsement of
this man Berman in order to secure positions in the service. The rule seems prevalent that no colored man need apply. It is said of Congressman Bartholdt, that he has taken good care of all his kamen. It is also said that when a certain candidate for a federal appointment announced himself, that Bartholdt stated he would not do, for there were already too many Germans in office. We wonder what the Germans and the colored voters will do in the 10th district in the next campaign. It may be necessary to elect a member to Congress from that district who is not German, and as the district is composed of Americans, German-American and colored men, a word to Dr. Bartholdt in time may save him some anxiety in the future. Nominations some times come high. "Better curb the man, Berman, Doctor." "Patronage Brokers" usually bring about their own ending. Mr. Berman, as well as other relatives of Mr. Bartholdt, seem to have been well taken care of by the Doctor. The Palladium sounds the note of warning; promises and smooth talk must be met in the future by sincere action, and Mr. Berman must be curbed or the Palladium will know the reason why. The Germans of South St. Louis are not as enthusiastic for Mr. Bartholdt as he thinks, and his fences are badly in need of repairs in the West End, the North End the County of his district, where many colored men reside. The Palladium insists on Berman taking a back seat. Our Herr Bartholdt should understand that the Negro abounds in large numbers in the confines of the 10th district and he is for fair play and equal division, according to his worth and merit. However, the 10th district Congressman and Berman seem to regard the Negro only as a sort of handy man to have around on election day. Despotism and popularity do not go hand-in-hand. We have never yet challenged a man without just cause and we ask the attention of the public in this matter. The Negro, and for that matter the whole 10th district, are at loss to understand Mr. Bartholdt.
Editor's After-Thoughts.
While Roosevelt is taking a trip through the States, our friend J. D. Miller, is trying to break into the Roosevelt Club.
Let us change with New Orleans, Prof. Weber is trying to steal one of our city's girls; let one of our young men steal one from his.
The election is over and we wonder what J. D. Miller will chance next?
St. Louis was once more shown up Tuesday in election.
St. Louis is to have a wireless telegraph soon. We wonder if this will come in contact with the sparks from the Eagle man's tongue?
If Presidents are traveling 13,000 miles in a single trip, we wonder how far Pres. James Huston will travel during his next vacation?
Heads! Heads!! Heads!!!
One of the surest indications of the approach of summer is the almost inestimable number of heads of women of our race, seen poked out of windows.
It seems as if our people delight in sunning themselves, for the least ray of sunlight calls forth heads of from every crack and cranny.
Head with braids; heads with natural curls; heads with artificial curls; heads with bows of ribbon; heads with shoes strings; heads with hair that floats; heads with "hum" that never floats; and so on, ad infinitum.
It is a very bad habit and one which should be remedied immediately.
Remember Lawton avenue is going to be a public boulevard and to guarantee our safety on that street, for God's sake keep those heads in.
Rents are going up and if there are many more of that variety of heads poked out of windows, it will take another scoot upwards.
Wellston School Election.
Mr. William Schofield, Mr. Chas. Stevens and Mr. Chas. Becker were elected school directors at Wellston last Tuesday. These gentlemen have promised to build a new colored school in the district, and Messrs. W. D. Mckoin, Lemel Rose and Joseph Jackson were appointed by them to select a location. The new school movement was suggested by Mr. McKoin, and we hope it will be successful as it is one of the pressing needs of Wellston.
Grand Rally.
There will be an Easter rally given by the Sisters of Saint Paul Free-Will Baptist Church, April 12th 1908. All ministers of all churches are cordially invited to attend. Rev. Jones, Pastor. Mrs. Kimble, Secretary, 22d and Papin street.
[Image of a man in a suit with a bow tie and a mustache].
Mr. E. L. Arnett, of 2301 Morgan street. Mr. Arnett is one of our business men. He believes in advertising in Negro papers.
Our attention has been called to an error in last week's issue in the article under James B. Parker's cut.
The article was copied from an old edition of the paper, printed about the time McKinley was assassinated. This, of course, will explain the reference to Roosevelt as Vice-President, since he held that office at that time.
The mention of the 24th and 25th Cavalry was, of course, an oversight on our part.
We thank the subscriber for his kindness in correcting us. It only proves how closely the Palladium is perused,
Order in time and save annoyance.
U. B. F., S. M. T. and Juvenile Goods.
Reveribe Badges for Lodges, Temples, Royal Houses and Past Masters' Councils at the very low prices—50 cents, 60 cents, 75 cents and upWard, depending upon the quality desired quality is considered. Regalias of all kinds, worth $2 and upward, depending upon quality. Knight's Full Uniform at prices to suit the trade. Swords for Sentinels at $3.50 each. Metal Top Pieces, the most beautiful the order has ever had, and
Mr. Nash, of 10 North 15th street, died a few days ago at his home. He leaves a wife and many children to mourn his loss.
The Palladium is in receipt of a letter from one of the students of Howard University, Mr. George Cathrell, a former St. Louisian, in which he informs us that the cut of Howard University, which appears in the Palladium, is not an authentic picture.
As it has been some years since the Palladium man has been in Washington, and since the cut we run at present was a reproduction of the University as it was when last seen by him, the thought of the modern improvements changing it, never suggested itself.
The pictures sent to us by Mr. Cathrell, prove it to be a magnificent college composed of several separate buildings.
Rev. Dr. Roberts is heartily in favor of the movement of Father Coffey to eradicate vice from our midst, and we hope the remainder of our Negro ministers will lend their aid in the attempt to redeem the city.
Mr. Isaac Renfro, of St. Clair, Franklin County, died Friday, March 27. He leaves a wife and daughter. Mr. Renfro was one of the wealthiest colored men in the county and was quite prominent.
Prof. Haney Weber, of New Orleans University, is corresponding with one of our charming teachers. How many more marriages are to occur in June?
Mrs. W. B. Williams, of 2307 Pine street, left last night to visit Memphis. Tenn. She is expecting to sell her home in that city and will return soon.
Fire destroyed the two beautiful homes of Mr. Hallie Gillespie, of Wellston, Monday morning. Both houses were razed to the ground.
The loss is estimated at about $3,500, all fully covered by insurance.
Mrs. W. Owens, of 6108 South Eighth street died last friday morning. She has been ill for almost a year.
Her husband is employed in the postoffice.
We deeply sympathize with him in his bereavement.
A DISGRACE:—There are a number of girls who come home from school and the first thing they do is to go to the grocery or butcher shops and stand and gab with the men in charge.
The mother of these girls ought to be careful, before it is too late.
A colored girl should maintain her dignity in her dealings with men in various stores. "Familiarity breeds contempt."
We further add that after school hours these girls further disgrace themselves and we have come to the conclusion that their parents should know about it.
Mr. A. G. Sanders, of Popular Bluff, Mo., will visit his sister, Mrs. Lawrence Elkins, of 118 Bonkins avenue, this city.
Miller.
Why did the Hon. James D. Miller
whip that bov a few days ago? Answer.
Juvenile Goods.
Reveribe Badges for Lodges, Temples, Royal Houses and Past Masters' Councils at the very low prices—50 cents, 60 cents, 75 cents and upWard, depending upon the quality desired quality is considered. Regalias of all kinds, worth $2 and upward, depending upon quality. Knight's Full Uniform at prices to suit the trade. Swords for Sentinels at $5.50 each. Metal Top Pieces, the most beautiful the order has ever had, and will last for ever at $4 a pair. These top pieces for supporters' staffs are capable of the highest polish and make a splendid display. We have the only first-class beautifully enameled button for U. B. F. and S. M. T. in the world. They are tricolored and in harmony with the ritualistic law. Fo one is ashamed to wear one, all who see them want them.
Rolled Gol . Buttons.....75 cents
Solid Gold Buttons.....$1.25
Banners of the very latest design and finished workmanship can be procured by paying from $8 to as high a price as you desire. Banners are very necessary and every organization should have one.
Jewels for anp department of the order at 75 cents each and upward according to quality desired. All kinds of Paraphernalia furnished for initiation in every degree known to the order. Those desiring these requisites must on naming articles defined give sufficient proof that srid applicants are entitled to handle goods ordered. I am in a position to furnish anything desired on short notice.
My connection with the order for 22 years enables me to assist the membership in getting anything wanted. Six years National Grand Secretary and an officer of one kind or another since 1884 are evidences that I am reliable. Order before you need the goods. Send all orders with cash to F. W. GROSS, P. N. G. S., Victoria, Texas, U. S. A. Terms—All transactions absolutely cash or C. O. D. Orders must be accompanied by eme-half cash, at least, but it is cheaper to send cash and save return charges. Special terms for large orders. One of our watch charms would make a pleasing gift. Send for prices. Buy badges and regalia before you need them. A fine gold pin or button would be a nice holiday present.
Then we see the Pink Coat Bar, Twenty-second and Market streets. Williams and Head will do you up fine.

LOUISVILLE, KY.
News From Kentucky, the Mother State of the U. B. F. and $. M. T.
This has been a very prosperous and important year with the order. Many lodges, temples and juveniles have been added to our roll. Knights of Friendship have increased in numbers, new camps have been organized, and old ones strengthened. Hence they look forward to the assemblage of St. Louis, Mo., as one of the greatest outpouring of its history.
The meeting of the Grand Lodge of Kentucky was d very interesting one. It closed the five years administration of Grand Master C. H. Tandy, who was successful in holding the forces together and to his credit be it said, succeeded in paying off the last dollar of the Widow and Orphans Home—$6,000—232 acres. Now that the property is paid for the Board of Manages will, without doubt, improve the premises as fast as occasion requires. The Ladies' Auxiliary composed of the various temples of Louisville, had a beautiful bridge built across the stream that flows through the farm.
All over the State lodges and temples are building halls and acquiring real estate. In the city of Danville where Grand Lodge was held, a new hall was erected and dedicated for the atlting of the grand body, furnished and completed in the latest style architecture.
A Mutual Aid Association was organized at this session. The Lodges and Temples are taking out Polices, and in a short time, will have a large enrollment. The Grand Lodge of Kentucky will not hold her annual session this year, in order that the Lodge and Temples may be largely represented by delegations at St. Louis in July next. The Lodges and Temples of the city of Louisville contemplate rebuilding a more commodious hall. In order to do so they have purchased the adjoining property at two thousand three hundred dollars. The new hall will cost about $20,000. Yours in J. M. S.,

The reception tendered to the nation's hero was a credit to the church. The house was crowded to its utmost. The program wsa well rendered. Prof. A. J. Freeman performed at the piano. Prof. Wm. D. Acklin acquitted himself with credit and was called back several times. Mrs. M. A. Gilree did well and Mr. A. W. Washington sang one of his own selections. The hero of the hour was then introduced and spoke at some length, making a good impression on his audience, making many friends. Saturday he will speak at the Y. M. C. A. Rev. E. C. Cole, in his remarks, gave the audience quite a treat.

BE NOT DECEIVED TO THE COLORED PEOPLE OF AMERICA King of all Hair Tonics, "OZONO."
BEFORE. AFTER. TRADE-MARK. BEFORE. AFTER.
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 frauds 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 Tonics,

which is sold with an iron-clad guarantee to do all that is claimed for it, or we will forfeit $50.00. Now, we ask you a plain question—would we absolutely agree to forfeit $50.00 if you are dissatisfied with our preparations, if they were not true to all we claim for them? We have advertised for several years under this guarantee, and we are glad to say that every one who has used Ozone has been satisfied in every respect.
20,000 people are to-day using our preparations, and every purchaser recommends Ozone as the King of all Hair Tonics. Ozone will positively take the Kinks out of Knotty, Kinky, Harsh, Curly, Refractory, Troublesome Hair. It will make short, harsh hair long and straight. It will cure your head of all itching, worrying scalp diseases. Itch, Eczema, Dandruff, and Scurf can not live after Ozone has been applied. It will stop your hair from falling out. It will restore gray hair to its natural color, making the hair long and soft.
Now, right here, let us make a statement. Many firms are advertising remedies to straighten hair, but when they send the preparation they tell you to use hot irons. Friends, do not use hot irons; they will burn up the life of the hair, and cause it to drop out. Ozone straightens without any outside assistance. Nothing but Ozone is necessary, and the hair stays straight forever. You can stop the use at any time. The good effects on the hair are seen in a day or two after the first application.
The price of Ozone is 50c. a bottle—4 boxes do the work. We make this liberal offer, which is good at any time: Cut out this coupon and send to us, enclosing with it the sum of One Dollar, and we will forward to you four large boxes of Ozone and one large bottle of Electrical Skin Refiner, which makes black skin bright, rough skin soft and pliant, and cures all skin diseases. Also removes all facial imperfections, and actually removes small-pox pix. We will also include one fancy jar of our Electrical Skin Food—Nature's great beautifier—removes wrinkles, moth patches, freckles, and all facial blemishes; makes the old look young and the young look younger. We will also include one package of our celebrated Scalp Soap, which is absolutely CHEMICALLY PURE, and no soap but a pure soap should ever

The actual value of this Grand Aggregation is $4.00, but we let you have it for $1.00, simply to introduce honest goods. In order to protect the public in general from imitations of our goods, and to avoid mistakes, we have placed upon our coupon our Trade-Mark, one head showing Short Hair and the other head Long Hair. The U.S. Government has granted us this trade-mark, and it is registered in the Patent Office at Washin gon; so if the coupon has this trade-mark on it, you will make no mistake. Use only the coupon having the two heads on it. As to our responsibility, we refer you to the Editor of this paper or to the Metropolitan Bank of Richmond, Va. We have thousands of testimonials we have not space to publish. Here is a sample of one:
