Ben Franklin's Great Wisdom Ben Franklin's Great Wisdom Two hundred and five years ago to (January 17th, 1706) in the city of Boston, Ben Franklin was born. Throughout the country, wherever men are moved by its notable contributions to the cause of science, philosophy and literature the memory of the brilliant and picturesque son of the humble Massachusetts soap maker who coaxed the lightning from the sky, and demonstrated for an incredulous world the analogy between it and electricity, again strikes a responsive chord in millions of human hearts. In recalling his wish that he might be preserved for one hundred years in a cask of Madeira vine and be brought back to life at the end of that time to see what he country had wrought in the meanwhile, his trite remark "Of what use is a new born babe?" made to the man who contemptuously quizzed him concerning the value of certain experiments then being made in blooming by Montgolfier, comes home to us with a new emphasis in the light of recent achievements. Assuming that Franklin could come back, how he would mavel at the bewildering array of wonders that would confront him at every corner! His country, no longer limited in its scope to the original 13 states with their 827,844 square miles of territory now spread its starry emblem of freedom over two contents, embracing 3,026,789 square miles. Its public debt has grown from less than $75,000,000 to $1,046,49,185, its receipts from $20,700,000 to $1,297,035,933, its annual expenditures from $17,000,000 to $1,216,000,000. The Post Office system which founded, with annual receipts of $00,000 has grown to $205,562,383 before the steamship the old sailing vessel and packet ship have disappeared from the face of the sea. In he manner the pony express and the age coach have capitulated to the hip powered railroad train, the electric rolley and the automobile. The tallow candle has eased to diffuse its sickly aurora, ylding its place to the electric light, one 50, 000,000 of which glow nigly in the United States. Beneath it waters the submarine cavorts with the native of the deep and across the horizon the fleet winged aerophe soars with the skill of the eagle and the buzzard. In the field of ectricity, interest in which he did so much to stimulate, Franklin would fit amazing vindication of his prescid judgment when he asked his interrogator 'Of What Use Is a New BorBabe.' Since he thus spoke have coe Professor Morse's telegraph, Efessor Alexander Graham Bell's tehphone, Elias Howe's sewing machin McCormick's reaper, Edison's monograph, Delany's 2000 words a minute, telepost automatic telegraph system, Westinghouse's wonderf mechanical inventions and a thesand and one other wonderful electrical and mechanical devices that multiply man's usefulness. The high powered cylinder press has displaced the foot press ofoor Richard's" time and the linoty the setting of type by hand. Sin he passed away Napoleonism has been crushed from the earth and the earth and the doctrine of republicanism widely disseminated. We have had four wars but are greater and more prosperous than ever before, with a wealth of $125,000,000,000 twice that of Great Britain and three times that of either France or Germany. 'Truly might he now say—if he could come back—"Of what use is a new born babe." OUR YOUNG SPORTS. "Heavy, heavy hangs over your head. What must be done with the owner of this property? Such is the expression that was once used in the rustic plays of our childhood, and like most of the things practiced in this plastic period, the above expression comes easily to our tongue's end. But now it comes with sadder thought. With any kind of an observant eye the man of today who is giving any thought to the problems that confront the future of his people sees among many things a very weak point in the life and habits of our young people to run to the extreme in dress. Boys getting from four to five dollars per week and living in too many instances on the hard earnings of an indulgent parent do not show any common sense whatever in spending from $25 to $35 for a suit of clothes, from $5 to $6 for patent leather shoes and kid gloves with all the trimmings. These same fellows (poor fellow) haven't a dollar saved up anywhere, not a foot of land. Oh, yes, we believe they do claim six feet. And if they should lose their jobs within a week they would be burdens on the backs of some one. We have a case of this kind in mind at present where a young fellow worked for a prominent doctor for a number of years and the same week of the physician's death this young sport was trying to sell a derby hat to get a hot stewed beef. It is amusing to see these misguided youths drop down the pike, but when you come to think about it the picture is a very sad one. Here they come, buckhorn handle walking cane, peg leg pants with collars at the bottom, imitation studs, rings on their fingers, and if it was convenient they would have bells on their toes to attract attention; more on the head than in it. With a cigarette or cigar, whose smoke they proceed to puff into most anybody's face, without ceremony. Young sports, you are stepping high, but back of that step are the dim forms if you could but see them, of the unborn generations who must take up where you leave off and enter into the competition of the world. They must make their tools out of the material that you leave for them or they must forge them out of nothing. Glad to say, however, this is not true of all. We have several young men and boys, too, right here who have bank accounts, who are buying homes for their families and aged parents. These same fellows are not trying to tear down the virtue of our girls either. In the years to come they are the men upon whose shoulders the burden of the race must rest. Western North Carolina Advocate. ODD FELLOWS OF AMERICA. ODD FELLOWS OF AMERICA. ABLE MEN WITHIN ITS RANKS Recent Unfriendly Criticism of the Actions of the Ruling Forces at the Last Biennial Convention Prompts the Writer to Present the Numerical Strength of the Organization. By A. E. EDWARDS. There has been so much criticism of the work of the biennial movable committee of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows, which held its fifteenth session in Baltimore last September, that little or no time or attention has been given to the real merits and achievements of the organization as a whole. The Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of America was founded by Peter Ogden. The first three lodges the outgrowth of his teachings were Philomathean, No. 646, and Hamilton, No. 710, of New York and Unity lodge, No. 711, of Philadelphia. The growth of the order since 1841 to the present time has been marvelous. Scattered throughout the country there are 5,945 lodges, 3,891 house- [Portrait of a military officer in uniform, wearing a high-collared cap and a decorated uniform with a sash.] MAJOR JARED W. FORD: holds, 360 past grand masters' councils, 143 patriarchies and 767 juvenile branches. The total membership of the order, including all departments, is 452,546. Among the men of note who were conspicuous as leaders in the public functions and work of the last biennial convention were: Major General Jared W. Ford and his chief trumpeter, Colonel Joseph Clinton Edwards of Atlantic City, N. J.; chief of staff, John H. Bucker, Chicago; adjutant general, Colonel George W. Dawley, Philadelphia; inspector general, Colonel James O. Holmes, Washington; quartermaster general, Colonel Edgar Starling, Washington; judge advocate general, Colonel James A. Fox, Indianapolis; surgeon general, Colonel I. L. Roberts, Boston; chief engineer, Colonel J. R. F. Browne, Washington; chief mustering officer, Colonel Wesley Davenport, Boston; commissary general, Colonel George W. Hays, Cincinnati; paymaster general, Colonel James H. Young, Raleigh, N. C.; chaplain, BEST RATTLESNAKE CURE Srychnine is probably the only positive antitode for a big injection of rattlesnake toxin. a bite or rather stroke such as a four-foot snake would inflict on the fleshy part of the body, as the calf or thigh. For 6 Colonel George E. Moore, Columbus, O.; aid-de-camps, Colonel Harry Franklin, Baltimore; Colonel C. A. Smith, Phoebus, Va., and Colonel James W. Branson, Wheeling, W. Va. The several regiments were headed as follows: First, Colonel W. C. Gray of Washington; Second, Colonel John W. Anderson of Pittsburg; Third, Colonel P. H. Edwards of Philadelphia; Seventh, Colonel D. B. Allen of New Haven, Cohn; Twelfth, Major Lawrence, and a regiment composed of Patriarchs made up from the remaining twelve regiments who only sent delegates and officers. The second and third divisions were composed of lodges, households, past grand master councils, national and foreign officers of the order. RISK IN ALL OF THEM A coroner in Philadelphia discharged a young boxer from custody and exonerated him from all blame in the death of a boxer with whom he was competing. Said the coroner: "A prize fighter takes the same chance of death as a football player when he enters a contest." The coroner is quite right. He takes the same chance as the ballplayer, the fisherman, the croquet player, the golfer, the motor car race driver, the jockey, the driver of a trotting horse, the hockey player, the man who bursts an artery at ping pong, the oarsman and the fencer. There are fifty or more other amusements which might be enumerated, but this seems to hold the count for the present time. Whenever a man or a youth or a boy enters into any kind of game or exercise in which there is risk of any degree, or which calls for more than ordinary exertion or for continued exertion he is liable to injury which may be fatal. A man broke his jaw playing mumble-peg. such a bite, carrying as it does half a teaspoonful or more of venom deep into the flesh, all ordinary cures are unavailing. Hypodermically injected, however, in sufficient quantities surely to kill the patient were he not suffering from the snake poison, strychnine is a certain counteractant. The greatest danger is said to be in administering too little strychnine. As a matter of fact but few even of skilled physicians have enough knowledge of the subject to be able to act with any assurance in administering strychnine in such cases. That rattlesnake poison and strychnine are exact opposites has been shown by experiments in which animals dying of strychnine inoculations have been cured by injections of the snake venom. Popular Mechanics. By W. G. THE SCARECROW. If an unregenerate person should leave off sin under fear of death or hell, it would not be for hatred of sin, but out of fear of punishment, as the bird is kept from bait by the scare crow. Much of this scarecrow work is going on around us. It is a poor state of things when a person retrains from sin merely and only because he is afraid of smarting for it. The raven is not a dove as long as he longs for carrion, though it may act like the gentlest bird. CURED BY A SALOONKEEPER. A certain lawyer bought all his drinks at one saloon. The saloonkeeper happened to purchase a fine property, but employed another lawyer, who never bought a drink, to prepare the deed and all the business connected with it. When his lawyer friend and customer heard this, he was very angry, and went at once to demand an explanation. "See here!" he yelled, pointing his finger at the old German, "I buy all my drinks here, and have spent a great deal of money as your customer, and in spite of my continued patronage, you go and employ some one else in your transaction, you go and be d—m—d." "Vell," interrupted the old German, "Ven I wanted pissness done, I wants it done by a sober man." The offended lawyer turned and walked out, and from that day he quit drinking, cured by an old saloonkeeper. HE WAS GUILTY. Mrs. Harry Lehr, at a luncheon in Newport, ridiculed the assertion of a French novelist that men object to cigarette smoking women, because their sense of smell is so exceedingly keen and delicate. "If man's sense of smell were really so extraordinary," said Mrs. Lehr, he wouldn't stand his room and clothes and mustache all saturated with stale tobacco, and whiskey fumes." Man's sense of smell may be keen, and yet how well the average man is hit off by the story of the tramp arrested for vagrancy. As this tramp stood up in the dock, the magistrate said to him,—"Well, my man, what is the charge against you?" "Fragrancy, your honor," the tramp replied. MIRAGE: OF MARRIAGE. A boy looked up from his book and asked, "Father, what is a mirage?" The father answered glibly from behind his paper; "The union of a man and woman till death or the law them part." "But," said the boy, "that's marriage, isn't it?" "Same thing, sonny" replied the father, a man imagines he sees wonders, and delight when there is nothing. Fight shy of 'em both, my boy."

Clifford, Editor & Proprietor Drawer 869, and Bell Phone, 60K. Marsh nburg, W. Va. SATURDAY, JANUARY 28 1910 We think the Republicans did an injustice to themselves and their constituents to leave the state. They had nothing to fear. Mr. Seibert will come home honored, Mr. McIntire dehorned and John T. McGraw become more and more popular. Shameful are the conditions at Charleston. As an observer of the affairs of state and men, it is patent to us, that there is more necessity for the old time State and county conventions where every one has the right to put up his choice and finally settle on the choice of the majority, than to have the political graft scheme of primaries. The New Orleans expected jim-crow World's Panama Exposition has no aid from this paper. If it "would rather do without it than not to jim-crow colored people," to the infernal regions with it. In writing and begging this paper to help get it there, reminds us of the devil trying to tempt the Savior on the mount, and as He said get those behind me Satan, so do we. Don't Be Scared. To be cowardly often induces the silly fellows to try to do you harm. We have had notice to organize to prevent a jimcrow and disfranchising scheme said to be on foot by some shallow headed democrat at Charleston. Not a bit of danger of either happening, because there are too many broad-minded democrats there who would stand up like adamant against it. For another reason they will not pass, for it is well known that many colored people, sick and tired of the treatment of a certain class of republicans, voted for the change, and if treated as promised they would be, they would vote again. If in the face of what is above said, the bills would be passed, Wm. E. Glasscock, one of the best governors in the United States would veto them, and the Negroes would unifically go back to their "first love." David Graham Phillips, the noted novelist and publicist, was shot down in New York on Tuesday by a young violinist named Goldsborough, who apparently harbored a senseless and unwarranted grudge against Mr. Phillips. The slain man was a person of great ability, and the service he had done for humanity will go down in history as being of almost inestimable value. After shooting Phillips six times, Goldsborough turned his ten shot automatic pistol toward his own head, pulled the trigger and killed himself. This last set of Goldsborough's, obviated the necessity of an expensive trial, kept some high priced alienists from being expert (?) testimony and will equivcommended by people who are of scentily inclined, but who are tiring thy shong so much maudlin sympa who doesn' for the slick individual out of it n his devilment and equirms times in ten. The Golden Rule. Now a days, everything that has grown to frightful dimensions in this country because and only because of the white man's endorsement and cultivation of sin, is called a problem. "The worst problem" it is claimed that exists in this country is, the "Negro problem." The only problem relative thereto, is the non application of the golden rule. This problem alone hangs on this simple fact; that the white man lacks enough of the religion of Jesus Christ to treat the black man as a man and brother. That's all. It was not of his will the Negro came here; it was not of his will and liking that he was degraded, it was no part of his delight that his women were ruined—all of which the whites are responsible for, and we have presented the case, and they must plead their cause before the bar of God, where no quibbling will be allowed. The Negro is willing and wants to be a manly man, but the majority of the whites are united against that, and everything they can do, is done to impede his progress added to which, everything is done to humiliate those who have made themselves such in spite of all their opposition. Another problem—wholly the white man's—for he makes it, sells it and licenses men to sell it, and puts a revenue of hundreds of millions of dollars on it, with which government officials', and church members at that—from the Supreme Court down,—salaries are paid. It is whiskey—the abuse and not the use of which has cursed the world. This problem the Negro has nothing to do with so far as making it, but he is called on the country over to help crush it out, and it ought to be, but in the name of God, are the christian people right in jum-crowing God's colored people, so many of whom are willing to help smash it? Why should God's people adopt the plans of wicked and debased shows when opposing what they declare to be the blackest sin on earth? The ballots will all go into one box, and as no one can tell who put them there, so ought the efforts of one and all unite in a good cause. Why destroy one evil, feed and foster another batred more harmful to God's children of a darker hue? If black and white criminals are arrested, tried, convicted and sent to the same prisons on equality and association, for the betterment of humanity and society, and the salons welcome on equality all comers, in the name of God for right's sake, why not the alleged christians join heart and hands to better the world? Jeff Davis declared that the Negroes' prayers would lose their cause, so can the white christians win their various causes against sins of their own making by treating the Negroes as God's children and brothers beloved. A New Religion For The Negro. There must be more patience, moral culture, refinement, cleanliness, love, and common sense religion in our homes. Indeed in embryo the foundation of the essentials above should be stimulated. It can be done, for it has been. We don't believe there has ever been a good man or woman, so many of whom have blessed the world, but what got the inclination in the embryonic development. If children are born of blind parents, what sense is there in trying to make them see? Equally true it is, that if they be born of inebriates, or syphilitic parents, how can their natures be changed? About as much as the blind can be made to see. Keep the bones blended pure and unite in self searching prayer that your conceptions may be blessed. Children from such parents will be the attic salt in home, government. morals and religion The mass of our people give more time and attention to chickens, pigs and mules than they do to their children, who are, in addition to their natural bad birth tendency, shoved down lower and lower in, about and around the houses called God's place of worship, where festivals and fairs are held till midnight, and the children have the right of way in and out of the church during these late hours. How can their virtue and morals be good? Make the home the best place on earth—a veritable heaven for the little ones—as was the case with the immortal John Howard Payne, who in foreign lands and opulence told a world that will forever love him for it,—that "Home, home, sweet home, be it ever so humble, there is no place like home?" He had a mother who loved him and it led him to his grave and lifted him into glory. To shout in church and fuss at home; to cook, eat and sleep in the same room; to let the children go halt clad and dirty; to stuff your windows with rags and paper, will not make a "sweet home" for your children. Give less money to the churchee, and more to your children; cut out going to picnics, campmeetings and on excursions, and make "Home, the spot of earth supremely blest, a dearer, sweeter spot than all the rest," for by educating after the will of Jesus, we gradually evangelize the world, for our courts, our schools and our churches cannot be a whit better than our homes. Quite Interesting A man of veracity related a conversation last week on the B. & O. between here and Baltimore. Two white men got into a conversation about the Negro race and discussed it pro and con extensively, and especially the way they have been and are treated in Maryland. Mr. B. laid the Negroes' condition in every way at the white man's door. A differed from him. They talked over his conduct in labor and war, and found no fault with them, when B. reviewed their faithfulness to the South's women, when their masters were away fighting to keep them in slavery, and asked A. if he knew of a living or dead race, except the Negro, but what would burned and killed them all? A agreed. B. said it was a curse to this whole country the way the Negroes are treated, and in this strain of the argument A. dubbed B. a "nigger lover." 'No," said B., I am a southern man; don't believe in general equality with the Negroes. I think conditions have placed them, but I would be the last man in the world to ask anything for myself or child I would not ask for the black man and his child, and if either or both excelled me I would clap my hands and be a happier man—I am a convert of Henry W. Grady." A said nothing. B said; "Don't you see another war coming?" A concurred that it looks that way. B said; "If Japan would land at one time as she could—a half million men, do you believe the Negroes, treated as they are and have been, would fight for this country?" "Yes" said A, they are born fighters and love their country, and every mother's son would answer the bugle call." Don't you believe God loves and will protect such a people" said B?" I do," said A.; the whistle blew for Martinsburg. On they went and it is hoped that B. made A. as good a convert as Grady made him. Mrs. Lucy Ford Dead. Mrs. Lucy Ford, wife of Mr. Henry Ford, of Darksville, died on last Monday night about 11 30 p. m., following a brief illness, she having been apparently as well as usual upon retiring. The deceased lady was a native of Edinburg, Virginia, but had lived in this section for 40 years. She was an excellent woman, and numbered her friends among the hundreds, being a general favorite with black and white alike. Mrs. Ford was prominent in church and various other circles, never letting an opportunity pass to do good, and her death will be keenly felt by all who came in contact with a woman so noble as was she. Her home life was beautiful, and during her 31 years of married life to Mr. Ford, anyone who knew this good woman, will cheerfully bear testimony to the fact that her equal as wife, house keeper and sweet guardian to him was hard to find. She was truly a woman among women, and her death will not only cause an aching void to be felt in the community wherein she lived, but the fact that her voice is stilled and she will be seen no more around Darksville causes many hearts to ache. Mrs. Ford is survived by her husband and a brother, both of whom have our sympathy in their bereavement. MRS. COOK TELLS TRUTH Dexter, Ky—In a signed statement, Mrs. Cook tells the truth about how Cardui brought back her health and strength. She says, "I could not get any relief, until I tried Cardui, the woman's tonic. I suffered more or less for 10 years, and was so weak and nervous I could hardly do my house work. Now I am in better health than ever before, am regular as clock work, do not suffer at all, and gain strength every day." Thousands of women have been helped back to health by Cardui. Try it. KILL MORE THAN WILD BEASTS. The number of people killed yearly by wild beasts don't approach the vast number killed by disease germs. No life is safe from their attacks. They're in air, water dust, even food. But grand protection is afforded by Electric Bitters, which destroy and expel these deadly disease germs from the system. That's why chills, fever and ague, all malarial and many blood diseases yield promptly to this wonderful blood purifier. Try them, and enjoy the glorious health and new strength they'll give you.

Mr. Thomas's term of service as a barber in the House was about forty years, and during that time he was never known to be late whenever it was possible for him to get to the Capitol. He was born and reared in Frederick, Maryland, and came to Washington while quite young. His funeral took place from St. Augustine's church. He leaves a wife and two daughters to mourn his sad loss. I am sorry I have not the time to give a more lengthy account of the life and character of Mr. A. B. Thomas as I knew him. N. G. R. ESCAPED WITH HIS LIFE.

I tried everything, I could bear of, for my cough, and was under the treatment of the best doctor in Georgetown, S. C. for a year, but could get no relief.

IN the shadowy ranks of those who marched to defeat or death or victory fifty years ago in the mighty conflict that convulsed this great nation, is there father or grandfather or uncle of yours. Would you like to see a photograph of him in that long ago day of his youth—a photograph that he never knew was taken? Perhaps we can show you one; and in any case, we can tell you a story, stranger than any detective fiction, of 3,500 priceless photographs that were lost and are found again. 3,500 Long Buried Photographs of the Civil War THEY were taken by the greatest photographer in the United States of that day; they were bought by the United States Government for $30,000; they were buried in the War Department for 50 years—they are buried there still. But a duplicate set was kept by the photographer—who died poor and broken down; that duplicate set was knocked from pillar to post for nearly 50 years, until it was discovered by a New England collector. J. Pierpont Morgan tried to secure the collection—Ex-President Garfield and General Benjamin F. Butler said it was worth $150,000—with the help of the Reviver or Reviver, the entire collection has been gathered into 10 great volumes and is placed within your reach at less than the value of one of the photographs. It is the one accurate, impartial history of the Civil War—for the camera cannot lie. It tells the story of the War you never heard before. Taken under protection of the Secret Service, these photographs bring to light thousands of little-known phases of the war; they penetrate to strange places and record strange things.

Review of Reviews Company 13 Aster Place, New York "AS WE SEE IT." Is the Title of a Book whose author is Robert L. Waring, Esq., 609 F. Street Northwest Washington, D. C. It is excellent, and is destined to do incalculable good. In fiction it gets at facts as they exist, and outlines the real bulk of the causes of the trouble and friction between the two races. It is bound to be read the world over and will serve well its purpose. It took a strong mind and a fertile brain to plan and write this book which Henry Watterson, the great editor says is phenomenal, and will be read by as many white as colored people—just as it should be, for the real and proper settlement of the so-called problem, is interdependent—one upon the other. It is written in a time as ripe to make it almost as popular as did the period that immortalized Uncle Tom's Cabin. Get the book and read it. It only costs $1.60. Address the author as given above.
