"Did you ever notice," inquired the woman who has just moved to the country, "that when you hear a rooster crow early in the morning it always sounds a long way off? I used to observe that when I took my vacations in the country. Even when staying at a place that had a barnyard full of chickens, I never heard a rooster crow close by. It always had a distant sound, sort of mystic and almost poetic in the early dawn. Now I am living in the country I notice the same shrill, small note, far away—always far away—although there are lots of chickens in the yard next door and across the street, too. I'm sure there's some arrangement between the chanticlers about this, only we are not clever enough to understand it." READ THE PRESS. VOL. 30. INVADE CAPITOL WOMEN·DEMAND GOVERNOR OF TEXAS REFUSE TO SPEAK AT ANTI RALLY. Fall on Their Knees in His Office and Pray That He Change Austin, Tex.—Nearly a thousand women petitioned Gov. Colquitt to refuse to speak at an anti-prohibition rally. The formal presentation of the petition came late in the afternoon when the governor was practically alone in the state house. The women told the governor that they were there to present the petition in the name of "the mothers and sisters of the youth of Travis county." Gov. Colquitt made the women practically the same reply which Gen. Sam Houston, the "Washington of Texas," made to a delegation of ministers who waited on him in Houston in 1853, to ask him to support a prohibition law, Gov. Colquitt showed the women Gen. Houston's refusal of this request and told them that he was unalterably opposed to statewide prohibition. Before leaving, the women accused the governor of using his office to further the ends of private interests, and a number of them knelt on the floor and prayed that the governor might be shown the error of his ways. Famous Protestant Minister Says Prohibition Is Wrong. Ft. Worth, Tex.—Writing to a gentleman in Ft. Worth, Dr. Lyman Abbott goes on record against statewide prohibition. "Democracy means self-government," he says. "Self-government means local self-government; that is, it means that the people of each locality are to determine those questions which concern only, or chiefly, that locality; the people of the state, those things which concern only, or chiefly, the state; and the people of the nation those which concern the nation at large. The excise concerns chiefly the people of the locality." Dr. Abbott declares that the good done by prohibition in some parts of Maine has been more than counterbalanced by the spirit of lawlessness and by law evasion which it has stimulated. He says that prohibition has worked more harm than it has good to the social and moral life of the state of Maine, and that if any attempt were made to introduce prohibition in New York he would exert all his influence against its adoption. Dr. Lyman Abbott is probably the most distinguished Protestant preacher in the United States. He is the editor of The Outlook, a weekly magazine of which Theodore Roosevelt is contributing editor. The Outlook was formerly the Christian Union, a congregational paper of wide circulation and influence. Dr. Abbott succeeded Henry Ward Beecher as pastor of Plymouth church and held that charge for eleven years. WIFE GOT TIP TOP ADVICE. "My wife wanted me to take our boy to the doctor to cure an ugly boil," writes D Frankel, of Stroud, Okla. "I said just put Bucklen's Arnica Salve on it." She did so, and it cured the boil in a short time." Quickest healer of Burns, Scalds, Cute, Corne, Bruises, Sprains, Swellings. Beat Pile cure on earth. Try it. Only 250. at all druggists. Mr. Fawcett, entertaining an unexpected guest at luncheon, said, as they sat down to table.' "My dear Sir, will you have some of the bologna, or—or— His eye darted frantically over the table, and he concluded, "or not?" Anecdotal Literature SAW HIMSELF: A gentleman who was a native of England resided for some years in India, and while there, he lost his wife, leaving two little children. One evening as he was reclining on a sofa, reflecting on the severe loss of his wife, and watching the slumbers of his two little ones who were lying on a bed near him, suddenly, a tiger walked into the house, and entered the room to make the children his prev. But, instead of seizing them, he beheld his own image reflected in a large mirror. Thinking it to be a real and menacing tiger, he rushed towards it and broke it into a thousand pieces, and then immediately fled from the spot. A POOR DEFENCE Tali Esen Morgan, the noted musical director of the great Ocean Grove religious festivals, said that the "Merry Widow" waltz had been stolen from Mendelsohn's oratoria of "St. Paul." "It is a clear case of plagiarism," said Mr Morgan, "and Lebar's defense only incriminates himself the more. In fact Lebar's defense rather reminds me of the valet who was accused of drinking his master's wine. To this valet the master said: "Look here you! I believe that you have been at the decanter of claret, and then filled it up with water." "Oh, no, sir." said the valet, in an aggrieved tone. "Well, it tastes like it." said the master, and he set down his glass with a wry face. 'Oh, no, sir,' said the valet excitedly, "In the first place, sir, I never drink wine. In the second place, when I do drink it I never think of filling the bottle up with water. And in the third place when I do put water in, I always am very careful to add a little brandy, so that the wine may not lose its strength. A CADDY'S JOKE. James Anderson of the Scottish-American Golf Club smiled at a poor player on the Van Cortland Park. "He reminds me of a chap I used to know," said Mr. Anderson, "this chap played so badly that even his caddies made a butt of him. He got a ball badly bunkered one day, and, do what he would, he couldn't get it out again. Whack, whack, whack, he went, missing every time. After half an hour's work, he wiped his wet face with his banderchief and turned despairingly to the caddy. "Hang it" be said. I have tried ably my clubs on this confounded ball. What on earth am I to do now?" "The caddy laughed harshly and said. "Give it a swat with your bag." Senator Gallinger in an address said of a political opponent: "He isn't half so well off as he thinks he is. He'll wake up with a start one NO. 23 Against Statewide. EXCISE IS LOCAL.

The National Negro Business League is a business institution all right, but it would give just a little evidence of the distinction it lays claim to, were it to pay for some of the advertising it is continually trying to palm off on Negro newspapers in the shape of readers. With the passing of Senator Frye, the state of Maine loses an excellent statesman, the Nation a lawmaker whose equal will be hard to find, and the Republican party a power in its affairs which it cannot replace. He is another one of the Republican leaders whom we delight to honor, and we mourn his loss along with his family and friends. Dr. Felix Adler, head of the Ethical Culture Society, of New York, has returned home after being in attendance upon the sessions of the Universal Races Congress, in London, England, and he says that the most intellectual man he met there was a Chinese. Another proof that intellectual attainment is not denied to any one—not even a "heathen Chinese." Admiral Count Heihachiro Togo, the wonderful little Japanese admiral who crushed and almost annihilated Russia's powerful navy, has been in our country for the past week. To say that he has made a profound impression on America and Americans is no exaggeration, and while he has been on our shores he has been royally entertained, dined and feted. It is fitting that he be so treated, because he is one of the greatest naval strategists and heroes of modern times. We see no reason why there should be a Negro Department connected with the Panama-Pacific Exposition. That is the trouble now, there is too much segregation already, and why we should continue to advocate more in the face of present conditions, is a mystery to us. If the Negroes have anything that is worth while exhibiting at San Francisco, they should send it there like other American citizens, and stop this stricly Negro business, because it does no good from any possible standpoint. The Cleveland Gazette, edited by Hon. Harry C. Smith, has entered its 29th year. It is a fine paper, and as a race advocate, it has few equals and no superiors. It asks a fair field and no favor, and when these are not forthcoming it protests in a manner which shows that its editor is a man who knows that he deserves the same treatment that all other American citizens get, and is bound to have it if there is any possible way of attaining the end he seeks. Such a noble and sacrificing guardian as Mr. Smith has proven that he is to his race's interests, deserves the unstinted praise of us all, and if we had it in our power, we would see that he got it. May he and the Gazette continue to grow and prosper is the wish of the Pioneer Press. Much speculation has been indulged in relative to the foul murder of Broker Jackson, of New York, by Paul Geidel, the young man whom the police of New York call the "angel face boy." At first thought it makes you shudder to think of the horrible crime, and yet, after sober reflection, it is but a natural consequence of existing conditions, and when one considers how young men of the present day grow up, and how they school themselves in deviltry along all lines, the conclusion is reached that unless young people everywhere are incident to better influences, there will be more and worse crimes committed by degenerates of the Geidel type in the future than there have been in the past. IS KANSAS DRY "JOINTS" AND "BLIND TIGERS" ARE BEING RUN IN EVERY COUNTY AND TOWN. Brains of Law-Breakers Are Taxed to Find Ways to Sell Liquor. Topeka, Kan.—In spite of all that has been said in praise of the Kansas probitory laws, a recent campaign conducted by Atterney General J. S Dawson involved the burning of a turner hall, with all its contents, the confiscation of a carload of bar fixtures, and the arrest of sixty men and women. The campaign was waged in the southeastern part of the state, and the attorney general reached the conclusion, in his report to Gov. Stubbs that there were violations of the prohibitory law in other parts of the state as well. "Joints" in Kansas. John Callhoun Logan, who comes from one of the Southeastern Kansas counties, says of prohibition in Kansas: "There are no saloons in Kansas. The "joint" as a usual thing is in an obscure room on an obscure street or up an obscure stairway. It is a room without furnishing, even chairs. There are a few glasses or mugs, some bottles of whisky and a tub of ice packed full of bottle beer. If the place is pulled the 'jointist's' loss is not great, especially if he manages to get away himself, which he usually does, as he chooses his place with that object in view. The "Blind Tiger." "The 'blind pig' or 'blind tiger' takes another form. The customer makes his way through devious ways, up back stairs and through alleys to a door upon which he must give a certain rap to have it opened. "In the clubs supplies are bought by subscriptions among the members and left in a room. A pass word must be given the discreet guardian of the door before the visitor will be admitted. Such organizations see that their members do not drink more than is due them from the amount of their contribution. Have Various Schemes. "Fine liquors used to be introduced into the state by means of electric light bulbs. Another method was to send sealed packages addressed to fictitious names and then have the consignment sold for express charges. In Wichita recently six convicted "jointists" were fined an aggregate of $7,550, and sentenced to a total of fifty-one months in jail. A raid on a Coffeyville hotel resulted in the finding of twenty-four pints of whisky stored away behind the mopboard of one of the rooms. A panel in the kitchen of the same hotel had in it a hook which, withdrawn, let the panel down and revealed a large stock of bottled goods. A hotel raid in Wichita brought forth seventeen cases of beer, a bar and a library table with hollow legs, the latter containing four dozen bottles of beer. In Topeka a young man was found carrying two bicycle tires filled with liquor. Many Women Violators. Women conducted both of the hotels mentioned. One good-looking young woman, whom the authorities had long suspected, recently appeared in a hobble skirt which fit her so tightly that the outlines of several concealed half-pint flasks were plainly visible. A kindly faced, mother-like-looking woman who was always seen wheeling around a baby carriage, was followed one day into the country where she turned over to a confederate two dozen half-pint flasks of whisky which she had concealed in the baby carriage among the child's clothing. A woman of Norman was arrested by Sheriff Sale who found that there were twenty pockets in her woolen skirt each containing a half-pint flask of whisky. Another woman Rept her stock in bottles tied to a stake driven in the mud beneath the surface of the Arkansas river. Whisky in a Cane. The officials closed a joint in Galena and the "jointist" immediately became stricken with an attack of rheumatism and was forced to limp around supported by a large cane. An examination of the cane showed that it was hollow and filled to the handle with whisky. A man opened a "blind tiger" in a little dark room lighted by a weak gas jet. By putting a coin in the slot in the wall and turning the cock at the other end of the gas fixture, a stream of beer would flow out. When this was discovered the "jointist" began peddling garden truck, but a raid on his wagon one day showed that he had forty-six bottles of whisky hidden among his potatoes and cabbages. He next undertook trucking, but was detected one day selling a drink by tapping the large collar worn by his old mule. Bootlegger Turns Farmer. After this man's release from jail he turned farmer, and began bringing hay to town for sale. "I did a good business with my hay," he said, "but one day I was pretty badly scared when a member of the temperance league wanted to buy my load. I asked $15 for the load which was twice what it was worth. He accepted, and asked me to deliver it at once, but I offered as an excuse that I was having my harness repaired. If he had taken that load as it stood he would have gotten 75 pints of whisky worth $1 a bottle to me. I sold everyone of them before I put the hay into his barn. The Crying Need. An irate old lady, the wife of a prosperous farmer on the outskirts of Philadelphia, stepped off a train in Broad street station the other day with a face like a thunder cloud. Any one could see in that scowling countenance the smoldering fire that might break forth at any minute. Stamping excitedly on the platform, she gnashed her teeth in a struggle to keep back the tears. Finally she buttonholed the first person who would listen to her tale of woe. "What's all this here talk of educating young men to be civil engineers?" she screeched, indignantly. "What we need in this here country is more civil conductors and less sassy brakemen."—Philadelphia Times. LIFE SAVED AT DEATH'S DOOR. "I never felt so near my grave," writes W. R. Patterson, of Wellington, Tex., as when a frightful cough and lung trouble pulled me down to 100 pounds, in spite of doctor's treatment for two years. My father, mother and two sisters died of consumption, and that I am alive today is due solely to Dr. King's New Discovery, which completely cured me. Now I weigh 187 pounds and have been well and strong for years." Quick, safe, sure, its the best remedy on earth for coughs, colds, lagripe, asthma, croup and all throat and lung troubles. 50c. & $1.00. Trial bottle free. Guaranteed by all drug gists.

Riobmond, Va.—The grand jury on Wednesday indicted five general officers of the Grand Fountain of the Order of True Reformers, a Negro fraternal body, for complicity in the footing and wrecking of the True Reformers' Bank.

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.
