THE RICHMOND PLANET SENATOR TILLMAN BLUNDERS Embarrasses Diplomatic Guests.==Harangue on the Race Question==The Presiding Officer's Mistake==Pres. Taft's Timely Response. VOLUME XXVII, NO. 9. SENAT Embarrasses D the Race Que Mistake==P A SCATHIN Washington, Jan. 23.—A large portion of the 150 men who attended last night's annual dinner of the Washington Corral, Military Order of the Carabao, are saying today that they are mighty glad they were there. It was the most notable function in the history of the Washington branch of this organization, whose membership is limited to officers of the army, the navy and the marine corps who served in the Philippines during the period or the Aguilahuan insurrection. The Hon. Benjamin Ryan Tillman, Senator from South Carolina, ran afoul of the Hon. William Howard Taft, President of the United States, and got a spanking, of which The Sun told briefly this morning. It was a spanking scientifically administered and incidentally it placed Mr. Taft in the front rank of after dinner speakers. While serious at times he interspersed his remarks with good natured satire at Mr. Tillman's expense and put everybody, including Mr. Tillman, in good humor. SENATOR TILLMAN SPEAKS Mr. Tillman was the first speaker of the evening. He made a characteristic pitchfork speech, alleging that the members of the Carabao society by the very songs they had sung acknowledged that they were ashamed of the part they took in the conquest or the Philippines. According to Mr. Tillman mixture of races in the Philippines had brought a new race question to the United States, and he used such expressions as "hell broth," "mongrels" and "miscenegation." MANY ANGRY A good many of the other diners were pretty angry over what Mr. Tillman was saying. What made them most indignant, however, was his reference to Cuba. Next to the presiding officer, Rear Admiral McLean, sat Carlos Garcia Velez, the Cuban Minister, and part of Mr. Tillman's remarks were addressed at him. The South Carolina Senator said that Cuba had a black vice-president, and with a wave of his hand toward Gen. Velez referred to "this Caucasian." THE MIXTURE OF RACE "And when I think of the mixture of races in the Philippines," cried the Pitchfork statesman, "when I think of the mongrel, worthless, damnable mixture of blood going on in Cuba which we are obliged to mix with our own; when I consider this hell broth that is being brewed, I don't know where it is all to end. We have departed from the fundamental principles of our Government." Representative Hull of Iowa, chairman of the House Committee on Military Affairs, came back at Senator Tillman in a defense of the Government's Philippines policy and was applauded loudly. PRES. TAFT RESPONDS There was much enthusiasm when President Taft arose to speak. It was evident that he could not ignore the statements of Senator Tillman and particularly those referring to Cuba. Those who expected him to speak in tones of anger were disappointed. His attitude toward Mr. Tillman was that of a father toward an erring child and he soon had his audience seeing Mr. Tillman in the light of a man whose oratory ran away with him and compelled him to say things he did not mean. When the President finished there was a wild outburst and Mr. Tillman ran over and patted Mr. Taft on the back. The President spoke in part as follows: COMPARED HIM TO A HEIFER I don't know whether it was with that in his mind that your presiding officer called on "My brother Tillman" to open the ball, but after Brother Tillman got to work the presiding officer looked to me like that farmer who voked himself with a helper and when they started down the hill, overcome with the error he had made, said: "Here we come, damn our fool souls; won't somebody stop us?" (Cheers.) I don't know whether he has struck the bottom yet or not; but in the interest (Continued on Eighth Page) MECHANICS' SAVINGS BANK Officers Elected and Committee Appointed.

BURK, M. D., Superintendent. RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 29, 1910. Gone, But Not Forgotten. The funeral services of Mrs. Cora C. Thomas, were held in the Ebeenezer Baptist Church, Monday, January 24th, at 12 M., the Rev. Wm. H. Stokes, Ph. D. officiating, assisted by Revs. Scott C. Burrell, D. D., and W. F. Graham, D. D., As the body was borne up the alse "Nearer My God To Thee" was sung by the choir. After the invocation Madame Carrie Hawkins sang solo "No sorrow There." Rev. W. H. Stokes, very briefly pictured the beautiful life of the deceased and implored those of the eleven children out of the ark of safety to make ready for the great reunion of mother, father, and children in the bright beyond. Following the sermon came a solo by Madame Fannie Payne Clarke, "Jesus knows thy sorrow." After the body had been commended to the God who gave it, by the pastor "Shall we meet beyond the river" was softly sung by the choir. Could she speak to us today, she would say "Weep not for me, children. Theo' o'er my lifeless form you may be bending, For now my song with angel notes is blending. I'm safe at home where joys are never ending Weep not for me. Please think of me, as only gone be- fore you, From heavenly heights I will be watching o'er you. Just by the gates I will be waiting for you Weep not for me. Tho' now with grief your hearts are sad and aching. Tho' now with sobs your bosims may be shaking Entered into eternal rest at her home 730 N. Fifth Street, Thursday, January 20th, at 5:30 P. M., Mrs. Cora C. Thomas, widow of the late Louis Thomas, after an illness of one week of pneumonia. She leaves eleven grief stricken children to mourn their irreparable loss. Mrs. Thomas was not only the mother of a large family who bound fast as by golden bonds the affections of her children, but she was a mother to all those who came within the sphere of her influence. Blest are we who were privileged to call her mother, for she enriched our lives from the richness of her own pure and hallowed life. To Him who giveth Him beloved sleep let us be thankful that she was permitted to remain with us until the afternoon of life. I miss the, my mother! Thy image is still The deepest impressed on my heart. And the tablet so faithful in death must be chill, Ere a line or that image depart. Thou wert torn from my side, when I treasured the most When my reason could measure thy worth; When I knew but too well that the idol I'd lost Could be never replaced upon earth. I miss thee, my mother! Oh, when do I not? Though I know 'twas the wisdom of heaven That the deepest shade fell on my sunniest spot, And such tie of devotion was riven; For when thou wert with me my soul was below, I was chained to the world I then trod; My affections, my thoughts, were all earth-bound; But now they have followed thy spirit to God. HER CHILDREN Colored Troops Complimented Valuable Service Rendered. CITY OF SPOKANE. C. A. Fleming, City Clerk. Spokane, Wash., Dec. 29, 1909. Lieut. Col. W. R. Abercrombie, Fort George Wright. Dear Sir:— I beg to inform you that at the meeting of the City Council held December 28, 1909, the following resolution was unanimously adopted: "Whereas, the City of Spokane recently suffered the experience of a determined and premeditated assault upon her laws by the organized forces or the I. W. W., in which the said I. W. W. attempted to subvert and overthrow the laws and ordinances of the said City of Spokane, and in the suppression of which disorder and law-breaking it was necessary that great numbers of the disorderly persons be arrested and confined under sentence of court, to an extent and number that completely overtaxed the capacity of the jail and other places of detention of said CITY; and. "Whereas, The authorities of the Federal Garrison, Fort George Wright, adjoining this City, the 2nd and 3rd Battalions of the 25th U. S. Infantry, under command of Lieut. Col. W. R. Abercrombie or the 25th Infantry, courteously granted to the City, upon the request of Mayor Pratt to the War Department, the privilege of confining so many of such disorderly persons as might be necessary in the places of detention in said Fort George Wright, where such persons were kept under the custody and control of the Police Officers of the City of Spokane, and. "Whereas, The Federal Troops stationed at said garrison, by their soldierly bearing and correct deportment, their sympathy and moral support in the maintenance of good order, and by their constant example of orderly, law-abiding, sober and gentlemanly conduct at all times, greatly contributed to the aid of our Police Officers in handling a most serious situation; involving in large degree the great principle of law enforcement; and. "Whereas, We desire to express our appreciation to the officers and soldiers of the Federal Garrison, Fort George Wright; now, therefore, be it "Resolved, That the City Council do hereby tender to the enlisted men and officers of the 25th U. S. Infantry, for their services and their support, the thanks of the City of Spokane." HOWARD F. SYKES, 1st Lieut. 25th Infantry, Adjutant FOR RENT—good hand laundry, in Oak Park. Cheap. With well att door. Good patronage. M. H. OMOHUNDRO, (Room 32) 1103 East Main Street, Richmond, Va. The Globe Theatre Mr. Farley, the white proprietor, retires and leases the theatre to Mr. Arthur L. Macbeth, a colored man, of Norfolk, Va. The advent of Richards and Pringles famous Georgia Ministrels on next Monday and Tuesday, will mark the beginning of a new era at the Globe Theatre. Mr. Macbeth the new lessee, is well-known to the people of this city and state, and is experienced as ap artist and manager of moving picture and vaudeville theatres. He is one of the few expert moving picture operators, colored, and comes well qualified to make the Globe the success it ought to be. He is working to the end that the best stage talent will always hold the boards at the Globe in the future. Abolish Negro Secret Societies A bill is soon to appear in the House and Senate which will prevent the use of names of established secret orders being used by other persons than the successors to the persons who founded them. For instance, there are many orders which have been chartered by the national or State governments, and since that time, colored fraternal titles using the same name, have come into existence. The law will be a copy of the Georgia law on the subject, and will be rigid in its provisions.—Richmond, Va. Journal. Mrs. H. E. Thompson continues sick at her residence 104 W. Jackson Street. ATTORNEY CHILES RETURNS HOME. Will Locate Here. Lawyer James Alex. Chiles, returns to Richmond to practice law. The many friends of Lawyer James Alex. Chiles, twin brother to mailcarrier John R. Chiles, will be glad to know that he has decided to return to his native city to follow his chosen profession. Besides attending the Richmond Public Schools, he was graduated with honors from Lincoln University Penn., and also the Law Department of Ann Arbor Michigan, one of the finest law schools in this country. He practiced law here for two years, establishing a fine reputation, both as a criminal and chancery lawyer. He then upon earnest solicitations of Dr. Robinson and Dr. Hunter settled at Lexington, Ky., where he has remained for over eighteen years. He was the first colored lawyer to appear before the Supreme Court of Kentucky and to show in what high esteem his legal talent ranks in that state, he is the only colored member of the Bar Association having been invited to join by two of the leading lawyers of the State of Kentucky. He won his case against the C. & O. Railroad a few years ago for being forced into a filth Jim Crow car and now has an important case soon to be tried on the Inter-State Passenger Law, which will involve the interests of all the citizens of color in the U.S. He comes ripe with experience, and honors and feels that Richmond the leading business city of this country, will gladly welcome his return and give him a share of her patronage.

Rome, Negroes, Were Rome, Ga., Jan. 21. — (Special.)— A strange story has developed here of two negroes who recently appeared at Chubbttown, a negro settlement about 12 miles from Rome. These negroes spent two or three weeks at Chubbttown and it is reported that they defrauded the negroes of their prosperous settlement out of something like $2,000. The scheme they worked was an original one. They claimed to be able to show the others how they could dig into the ground and find quantities of gold. It was necessary for the digging to be done at night at a spot indicated by themselves, and those digging were required to use candles for light. These candles were sold to the unsuspecting darkies at the rate of $12.50 a piece. Unless the digging was done by the light of these candles efforts to find the gold would be of no avail. Quite a number of negroes were taken in by this hoo-doo scheme. The perpetrators of the scheme claimed that the gold was left in the indicated spots by spirits of the dead, and could not be discovered unless the searchers acted under their directions. A day or two ago Clubbtown became too hot for the hoo-doo negroes and they disappeared. Since their departure the whole scheme has been unfolded by the negroes who were duped. Mr. Ernest Brown, of 2 W. Baker St. is improving rapidly. Fifth St. Baptist Church. Located, Cor. 5th and Jackson Sts. RICHMOND, VA. Weekly News Column REV. W. F. GRAHAM, D. D., Pastor Residence: 108 E. Leigh St., Richmond, Va. J. HENRY CRUTCHFIELD, Editor, Office: 1215 E. Broad St., Richmond, Va. Present Though Not Bodily Seen. In the congregation of the righteous the comforter shall embrace the children of the most high, until Christ presents Himself bodily, and shall show mercy unto them; for His wills are plentiful and His grace shall not fall. The Fifth Street Baptist Church feels proud. Sunday, January 23, 1910, was a day with it long to be remembered, even nature smiled upon it. Before the hour came for services, the heights of the air were lifted up and a balmy mild atmosphere filled the immensity of space under the firmament of the blue canopy of heaven, while mother earth itself presented a healthful condition, and the grand sun in its diurnal rotation bathed it in its efficient brightness and strength. The heavy damp cold weather of the three preceding days had succumbed to the more genial meteorological phenomena in which the weak, feeble and infirm as well as the more healthy, robust and strong could face and be embraced. At 9:30 the Sunday-school of the Fifth Street Baptist Church, opened its exercises joyfully. The sweet music rendered in its opening song, "Stand up! Stand up for Jesus! Ye soldiers of the Cross." Lift high his royal Banner, etc," coming from the voices of such a large number of little children and the attentiveness with which they with buoyant hearts listened to biblical instructions, make any reasonable mind feel proud that Christ uttered the words "Suffer little Children to come unto me, and forbid them not." Train the child properly the way he should go and when he is old, he will not depart from it. Send the child to Christ in the Sunday-school. Even in this department Sunday, there was an unusual air, attendance larger, moiety sweeter and prospects brighter. At 11.30 o'clock the members of the church choir together with their veteran leader Alex. McCoy and the organist Miss Edmonia Anderson, took their places. The organist at once began playing the organ voluntary with such force and power that the sweet harmonious sounds coming from the great pipe organ filled the church with such melody that the large congregation at once saw that the spirit of the day was in the choir. Ah! but when the choir itself arose and mingled their human voices with the sweet strains from the organ, each with their own part striking on time symmetrically. There was indeed sweet music in the air which found its way as it were to the very soul. Who can forget the song "Christ will hold me fast?" especially when sung so sweetly as it was by Miss Louise Scott. The spirit was not only in the choir, but there was a double portion in the pulpit, while our pastor, the Rev. W. F. Graham, D. D., always feeds his flock and gives them food for meditation. Sunday morning he out stripped himself and preached as he never preached before, holding his congregation spell-bound from start to finish with the exception at times there were cries of amen, yes, etc, every word finding lodgement in the heart and deep-rooted in the soul. Never did his congregation seem more cheerful, hopeful and inspiring. At 3:30 o'clock the congregation began to assemble to partake or its first communion in this year. A striking spectacle was presented, a symbol of the new covenant as an abiding memorial of their Lord was before them. The scene was sympathetic, solemn and triumphant. The pastor together with the Revs. Evans Payne, W. H. White, Marshall Payne J. W. Woodson, Jacob Turner and other preachers occupied seats overlooking the scene. The deacons were in their usual places ready for service. The attendance was the largest the church has witnessed within five years, each and all seemed animated and in one accord for similar purposes the intimate spiritual communion with Christ as their Saviour and a reunion of spirits. A grand time was had. It was indeed a love feast, the comforter together with PRICE. FIVE CENTS. the invisible presence of Christ and the most high God were certainly without doubt present communing with the church. Everything demonstrated that fact. The songs were sweeter, appearance brighter and words had a quickening power. Rev. Evans Payne was beside himself, although his general appearance shows the sign of many years and his 38 years ministerial work has dealt heavily upon his frame, yet under the influence of Holy Spirit. All were changed and this divine became the central figure of the hosts his voice revived and was clear, heavy sweet and firm, his body received extra strength. None appeared more active nimble, and strong as he shouted, talked and sang to the delight of all and glory of God. At night our pastor, Rev. W. F. Graham, D. D., preached another wonderful sermon calling sinners to repent and accept Christ as their Saviour. The climax of the day was reached when out of the few sinners present, two walked to the front seats and bowed to be prayed for. How happy the Fifth Street Baptist Church feels from Sundays blessing, no human tongue can describe. The revival services will continue during the week. All sinners and others are invited. Let every christian come and unite in these meetings. --- We are sorry to note the death of Miss Julia Gray, one of the Sunday-school, as well as those of Edward Watkins and Percy Quaries. All auxiliaries, branches of the church, except the Sunday-cschool have suspended meetings to unite with the church in conducting the revival services. Wont you come? The pastor will preach Sunday morning on missions. Be there to hear him. Two real Africans from the dark continent so classed will be present, one is said to be a King, and the other the son of a Prince. Would you like to meet them? If so come to the Fifth Street Baptist Church Sunday. You will also get some idea as to the work the missionaries are doing in the foreign lands. Let every one decide to give God service Sunday. Attend church somewhere. Come to the Fifth Street Baptist Church and unite in the praise and thanks to God for his manifold blessings. Mr. J. R. Willis, of Winston-Salem, N.

"And, oh, yes!" she added a moment later. "the man that killed Margrues sobbed him of $10,000, and, of course, Lawrence Challenger wouldn't rob a man, much less kill, one, so don't you see, there's nothing, in the story at all." "I don't know," answered Britiam. I don't know, am not sure how slowly, "whether he would or not" "What?' gasped the girl. "Don't misunderstand me." pleaded the woman. "There are two Lawrence Challengers. One is the man I love that loves me; the other is the Lawrence Challenger who-well, I don't care, she added fiercely, "what he's done, I want him back." She sobbed for an instant. "You didn't know, Shirley, that we had a quarrel. I treated him badly, shamefully. He hasn't come back since." "You quarrelled—you, Miriam!" "About money," admitted the conscience stricken woman—money. He wanted me to give him some. Men have got to have money," she wont on, repeating his words, "and I wouldn't give him any. It was brutal in me. can never forgive myself" A look of astonishment crossed Shirley's face. "You wouldn't give him any money? And he didn't have any when he went away." Miriam wept After a moment she answered: "No. My poor Laurist Think of him starving freezing, perhaps dying!" Shirley Bloodgood drew a long breath. "And Colonel Hargraves was robbed," she murmured to herself. "I don't think you understand," Miriam went on, breaking in upon her thoughts. "Of course I don't believe that Laurie is guilty of the things they charge him with. But he must come back and stand trial and be acquitted—and I must stand by his side through it all." She broke down completely. "What's that?" inquired Mrs. Chatloner, starting up nervously, in alarm. "It's that horrible bell ringing again." she went on breathlessly. Shirley stole to the door and listened Suddenly the door was pushed steadily open. Stevens came in and stood at green tion. He drew a long intake of breath then he spoke this name "Mr Challoner" And hardly were the words out of his mouth than he was thrust aside and there stood in his place a spare gaunt, tottering figure—a man dishies- el, soiled, exhausted-James Law rence Challoner had come home! The young wife's face turned pate and for a moment words failed her Then all of a sudden she sprang to her feet, crying in an cacades of joy. "Laurie, Laurie! You've come home to me at last!" And throwing her arms around his neck she kissed him many times laughing hysterically and crying the while "You've come back to me" But Challoner cast her off with a frantic sweep of the arm "Keep away!" he cried "I'm dog tired" I've got to sleep. sleep! Shirley was keenly alive to what his presence there might mean. "Stevens," she called, pointing to a window, "pull that curtain down. I pulled it up after they went, pull it down." Challenger now turned upon her "Leave the curtain alone, I tell you," he said "I don't care if it is up. I don't care about you either, nor you" looking at his wife. "I don't know you. I must have sleep, sleep, sleep." Deep down in her soul Shrirley knew that she should not hear all this, and she would have fed if she had not promised Miriam not to leave her. Miriam now went over to the girl "You're not going to leave me?" she exclaimed) clinging to her "You and Laurie are the only friends I have. You must stay here with Laurie and me." Shirley patted her affectionately. "There, there. Miriam, dear, of course I shall stay." Miriam, reassured, started back to her husband and cried: "Laurie, dear," kissing him and pushing the hair back from his forehead, "no tired, no tired." But chalionor, a wolf now and not a man, jerked away from her and answered: "I came home, didn't I? Well, then, I must have sleep, sleep; I tell you, sleep." And, tottering over to a dainty silken covered sofa, he threw himself upon it, with a deep sigh. Miriam went down on her knees and drew him to her in a close embrace. "Everything's all right now that you come, back," she told him in soothing tones. "And, dear, you'll forgive me, for quarrelling with you. I'm sorry, sorry, I am, Laurie." Missing him on the lips, the face, the forehead, Say you'll forgive me, Laurie, dear? His answer was a snore. Miriam, whispered. Shirley, "we must not forget that Morgbryd and his men have only just left. We must not let him lie here. It was lucky they searched the house when they did." "No, objected Miriam. 'He must sleep.' "No, no, Miriam," perilated Shirley, putting great emphasis on the words. "We ought to tell him what kind of evidence is against him. If we didn't warn him in time he'd never forgive us." "Perhaps you're right, Shirley. You seem to be always right. Yes, I appose he ought to know." Gently, Miriam shook him, rocked him to and fro, shook him so, as some mother might wake a driver, growing boy at a station. lawrence, lace, grind, softly, in, the ear, wake up, deak, make, up For an instant, Phileo stirred. "I can hardly believe that Laurie is back," murmured Miriam happily. Unconscious of the other's words, she remained kneeling at the side of the dalyty soffa with its far from dalyty burden, her arm still about the neck of the man who slept upon it. At that instant as Miriam and Shirley stood clustered about the shopping thing the bell once more broke out in feeble clamor. "The hell! chorused the women and stood frozen silent." They heard Stevens, tolling up the stairs, waited, watched the door. Finally they saw him enter. "It's the prosecutor's men again, madam" and the butter "They've come to me." "Stevens," interrupted Shirley. "wure you didn't tell them that—" "They said they saw him." Shirley grounded and pointed to the sofa Mrs. chalition rose to her feet and stood before it as if to hide the man man it. "You left them outside, Stevens?" "One of them. The other forced his way in." A maid, quivering with fear and indignation, burst in with: "There's a man coming upstairs, madam, but I stopped him. He said he left out there on the landing to see you, so he knew Mr. Challoner was in the house and he was going to arrest him." "Oh dear! There's nothing to be done, I suppose, but to let the man in" Mrs. Challonge was speaking to Shibloy now, and whenen without waiting for a reply she ordered Foster to show the man up, adding: "I hope he will until Mr. Wakeens." Instantly Miriam crossed to the sofa and once more rested her soft, warm face on his, hoping that he could feel the love that she bore for him. Then she shook him somewhat roughly. "Laurie, dear, you must wake up." And then like a flash the thought of DANIEL "In the thing loaded?" queried McGrath, resistance crossed her mind. She spring up with a cry, rushed past Shirley, past Stevens, reached the door, closed it, fumbled for an instant and, finding the key, locked it light. "No, no." she muttered, "they shall not take him—I won't let them—he belongs to me!" In a freaky she piled up the light chairs and tables and pushed them against the door to form a barricade, crying the while to Stevens: "Help me, quick! We've got to keep them out! We must not let them in, must not"— Shirley caught her in her arms. "Don't, dear, don't!" We can't help it, don't you see? "Of course we can't help it," after a moment Mitism said resignedly and proceeded to pull the chairs and tables away that she had so vigorously piled up. Wearily she fell into a chair. Mixley entered the room, McGrath following soon after. At the sight of them Miriam rushed back to her husband, speaking his name softly. "If you would only let him sleep—just a little while longer," she said falteringly to the man. "You must leave him to us, ma'am," spoke up, Mixley. And suddenly together the man bodily lifted Challoner from the sofa and as suddenly dropped him back again. At this use of physical force Miriam covered her face with her hands and sobbed. "There's a hump here that we'd best attend to," said Mixley, running his hand over the outline of Challoner's clothing. The next instant revealed a revolver, which they took from Challoner's hip pocket. "Is the thing loaded?" queried McGrath. "Meam—ladies," said Mickley, crossing the room, "we're fair people, and Prosecutor Morganroyd is fair. You seen us take this here firearm from Mr. Challoner just now, didn't you?" Mickley and Shirley nodded in acknowledgment. "Mickley requested that they take a good look at it. "Don't give it to me!" cried Shirley. "Give it to me," said Mickram unhesitatingly. "You see that there's five chambers loaded, don't you, Mrs. Challoner?" asked McGrath. Mickram looked at it helplessly. "Five chambers loaded!" she asked in unaccentedly, unaccentedly. "Herb!" wrote in Mickley, "let me show you." And he counted slowly: "One, two, three, four, five; all full, Bee?" Mickley paused, then said: "And one plumber simply." "Oh, yes," she acknowledged, almost silently, as she placed her finger on the door. Iberrey surely one champun, empty Lace is now. McGrath Rositated, hut Mixley went on: "Will you smell it, please—just the end of it—the muskell?" "A Fourth of July smell," Mirlan faintly ventured, "gunpowder, of course." McGrath had another card to play. "Look at this here figure on this here gun, will you, ma'am? Here— there it is. I want you to tell me what it is." "What is it, Shirley?" asked Mi- rlam, bringing it closer to the light. Shirley peered at it. Finally she declared: "In 83," touching the gun lightly. "There, now," exclaimed Mixley, "no one can say we ain't been fair. You saw us take it from him. You exam- nol it, and you told us what you saw. That's fair. See?" "Yes, but what of it?" asked Shirley and Miriam in one breath. McGrath opened his eyes in mock wonder. "Why, bless me. Didn't you know? This here Colonel Hargraves was shot by a bullet that came out of a 38 caliber revolver; that's all. We wanted to be fair." "Fair! Shirley cried bitterly. "And Mr. Murgatrayd sanctions such methods—will uso for evidence!" But even than Miriam did not understand. She was watching Mirley and McGrath, who were lifting Qualonier up and dropping him—watching them draw him up to a standing posture and then throw him back again on the sofa, calling the while: "Wake up! Wake up!" "I have to sleep." "Was all they could get out of him." At last a drop more vigorous than the preceding ones caused Challoner to open his eyes. Then he closed them again. "Are you James Japenese Challenger added Mixolion, poremol polyphil?" And now again the bell. And a moment later Murgatroyd, the prosecutor, stood in the doorway. The heat of much haste was on his brow. "Has he talked?" Murgatroyd asked. "No, answered the man." "Lift him to his feet." The men did so. And then the women heard him snap sharply. "Challoner, wake up! This is Murgatroyd, the prosecutor!" Challoner opened his eyes, yawned stupidly and stood squarely on his feet without any help. "Hello. Murgatroyd!" he said. "Challoner" said Murgatroyd. "I am not here as your friend I am the prosecutor." "I understand," said Challoner. "Very well then," went on Murgatroyd. "you know why I am here. I charge you now, Challoner, with the murder of Colonel Richard Hargraves. Do you understand me?" "Perfectly," was Challoner's reply "You want to take me into custody? All right, only let me sleep when I get there will you? I—" "Wait a minute, Challoner," persisted Murgatroyd "It's my duty to inform you that anything you say will be used against you. You must not forget that I am the prosecutor" Miriam came forward quickly "Oh, Laurie, do, don't say anything just yet" she cried in alarm. Shirley seconded her warning, say quickly: "Who's saying all this? Only a lot of women. What do they know?" And turning back to. Murgatroyd. "See here. Murgatroyd, let's get this straight, shall we?" And he looked at him full in the gree. "You're the prosecutor and anything I say will be used against me. Is that right? Well, this little matter is just as simple as A B C'. And, suddenly drawing himself up to his full height, he went on in a loud, clear voice. "I waited for Richard Hargraves with"— "I warned you!" cried Murgatroyd, stretching forth a hand. Challourer scornfully refused to listen. "And when I found him"— He glanced about him defiantly and gave an imitation of a man taking aim and shooting "There, now, you know the facts." Murgatroyd turned to his two men. "It's a case of willful, deliberate, premeditated murder—murder in the first degree. Take him away." Shirley was on her feet in an instant. "Oh, Mr Challoner," she cried, springing forward, "why did you tell him?" "Come on!" Challoner called out grumby to the man. "Take me away! He did not even glance at his wife, who clung to the girl and sobbed on her breast." The prosecutor nodded to his subordinates, and immediately they seized Challoner by the arm and started toward the door. "No, no," cried Miriam, tearing herself from Shirley's hold. "Don't take him away?" And again and again with all the force left in her: "No, no, pot. Oh, Laurie!" The doors closed behind the man. Then Miriam sank down upon the soiled sofa where he had lain and sobbed as though her heart would break. [TO BE CONTINUED] Twenty-five Per Cent of MIll Employee in Bouth Infected.

TWO WOMEN ROB BANKERONSTREET W. M. Van Norden is Waylaid and Loses $28,000. TWO SUSPECTS UNDER ARREST After Picking Up a Dropped Pocket book, Banker Was Relieved of Money During a Scuffle by Female Thug. Warner M. Van Norden, president of the Van Norden Trust company, was held up and robbed of $28,000 on East Thirty-third street. New York, by two women. Two suspects are under arrest. He was glad that the women highwayman had not taken quite all that he and when they waylaid him. The $28,000 which they did take were stretched at full length in the long compartment of his wallet; doubled into a smaller pocket were four $100 bills and a sixtie piece of paper currency with the $500 mark on it. These remnants of the $28,000 which Mr. Van Norden had with him when he left the house were found in West Fifty-seventh street had been overlooked by the feminine thugs. "I had been to the theater with friends," said Mr Van Norden. "We stopped at the Waldorf and had a little supper, after which I went into the writing room and wrote one or two letters. I started to go home some afternoon and midnight. I went across Fifth avenue and wished Thirty-third street, intending to take a Fourth avenue car I noticed two women just ahead of me, an old one and a young one, both rather flashily dressed "One of them turned and looked at me, and then when I was nearly up to them, the young one dropped her pocketbook. I immediately stooped to them, and looked at her. And heavier of the two throw herself on me, and I felt her throw back the lapol of my heavy fur lined overcoat. Wrestled With Woman. "I rose to a standing position and wrestled myself away from her. The younger woman was standing near laughing. Don't mind her; she is just a little bit drunk," she said. Just then the older woman made another dive at me, and I watched with her for a fraction of a minute and then freed myself of her. "I don't remember that I said any thing, and there was nothing said by the two women except that one remark from the younger one. I walked on toward the car at Fourth avenue, since my wife and the wallet in the pocket though. I thought the tempt had been made to rob me it had failed. When I got home I looked in my wallet and found that $28 000 was gone from the middle pocket." After having discovered his loss Mr. Van Norden went early on the following morning to headquarters and reported the incident to the detective who was in charge of the investigation of the two women Detectives brought two women into headquarters on Sunday. One of them is known variously as May, Annie and Marilie Williams. She gave her age as twenty-four. The other, an older and heavier woman, said she was Bossie Roberts, and that she was known as a police society as Kitsy Dowdell, of Chicago, one of the experts at purse grabbing. Mr. Van Norden went to headquarters and promptly identified the two women who were being held as the two who had robbed him. They were held in $20,000 bail. **Legs Cut Off:** Tied Up Stumps. * Thomas McTiernan and James Doberty and Clayton Jackson are dying in a hospital as the result of an accident in which the three men who, while walking along the railroad track near Uttica, N. W., were run down by a locomotive on the New York Central railroad. A stiff wind was blowing, and the men did not hear the approaching light engine as it bore down upon them. Doberty was ground to pieces and his body was strewn along the roadbed for a quarter of a mile. McTiernan was ground to pieces and his skull crushed in, while Jackson had both his legs covered at the knees. The locomotive was turning backward at the time, and the crew, unaware of the accident, continued on to this city without slackening speed. Jackson regained consciousness in about fifteen minutes after he and his companions had been struck, and finding that his lower limbs had been so sore, removed the laces from his shoes and tied the laces around the stumps of his legs in an effort to check the flow of blood. He accomplished this with difficulty owing to his greatly weakened condition, and then rolled over and over in the snow and slid down the stairs, and shaken when he found a man, to whom he related the circumstances of the accident. Aid was summoned, and Jackson and McTernan were rushed to a local hospital, where McTernan died without regaining consciousness. Jackson's life changes by a sander threw.

In 1903, they separated in November, 1908, Mrs. Tillman saying her husband was a drunkard and abused her. They were reunited in February of last year, but in December Mrs. Tillman because ill in Washington. She charges that her husband deserted her while she was ill and practically drowned the case has promised to be very sensational. Triple Tragedy in New York. A most brutal triple murder was revealed in an obscure flat in the heart of New York's East Side. Two women and a man are the victim, and the manor of their death was horrible. Gagged with silk handkerchiefs and their heads crushed with hammer or axe, they were left bleeding and fully dressed on the floor, with a whimpering bull terrier as companion for the dead. Robbery was the motive, or else it is another case of the Black Hood. Salvators Scalpone, a well-told young Italian barber, his wife and a middleaged woman, believed to have been Mrs. Realpone's mother, are the victims. His failure to appear at his shop started an investigation, which resulted in the discovery of the crime. Policemen, summoned by the jailor of the tenement, which is at 10 and 13 Montgomery street, entered the locked fat by way of a fire escape. Railroads Won't Increase Wages. Not a single railroad company in the eastern section of the United States or Canada has accepted the demand made by the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen or the Order, of Railway Conductors for an increase in wages and uniform working conditions. This statement was made by W. G. Leo, head of the trainmen, at the headquarters of the trainmen in Cleveland. While the trainmen say they are ready to strike, if necessary, yet it is a general opinion among their officers that there will be no occasion for drastic measures. The trainmen are merely attempting to establish on the eastern railways the same wage and benefits that they obtained in the west two years ago. A similar movement is on foot as affecting the southern railways. FIRE Dead In Factory Fire Five persons were killed and about a score injured in a fire that destroyed a four-story building on the southwest corner of Chancellor and South American streets. Philadelphia. Several of the injured will probably die from the fire with any capacity through the building with any capacity that the firemen were powerless to save it, and the loss on building and contents will reach close to $76,000. The majority of the firms occupying the structure were shittiwat and other garment manufacturers. During the progress of the fire about fifteen men and girls leaped from the street at night and were street behind. All those were hurt to a greater or less extent and some of them are not expected to live. Eleven Dead In Explosion Eleven men were killed and five seriously injured when a premature explosion of dynamite took place in a tunnel of the New York city aquaduct about a mile outside of Cold Spring, N Y. The tunnel where the explosion occurred is part of the Everett condo complex. The men were in the tunnel men at work, paring for a big bleat. The foreman was an American, the rest of the men being negroes and Italians Soft Coal Combination. Charleston, W Va., representatives of the Guggenheim interest have secured options upon about 80 per cent of the New river coal field, which comprises 200 000 acres, as part of a plan to combine the entire butuminous coal interest of southern West Virginia, the Fairmont field and the holdings of the Pittsburgh Coal company. This will give the Guggenheim control of about 75 per cent of the soft coal of the country Death In Impure Milk That "from 6 to 7 per cent of our race is being destroyed wilfully by impuremilk." was the declaration made by Dr. Joel Goldwalthe at a hearing upon a bill for better milk in Boston.

Industrial Life of French Capital is Rapidly Becoming Paralyzed—Street Cars Tied Up and Factories Shutting Down. Paris, Jan. 28.—Fifty thousand soldiers, comprising the garrison of Paris, were placed at the disposal of the municipal authorities to help fight the flood, which is spreading rain and constation throughout the city. The water at the Pont Royal has touched twenty-nil foot above low tide and is still rising at the rate of almost half an inch an hour. The damage already done is incalculable. The industrial life of the city is rapidly becoming paralyzed. Only two sections of the subway are in operation, while three-fourths of the surface lines are tied up. Factories are shaking down at the back of park due to the electric plants having been flooded. Half of the telephones in the city are out of commission, and telegraph and railroad communication is almost shut down. The disaster locally is due chiefly to the fact that the whole marvelous underground architecture of the city, which is honeycombed with labyrinths, is filling up with water, causing the sewers to burst and the streets to cave in and threatening the foundations of buildings. The scene on the river front is majestic but appalling The Seine has broken its barriers at several points and is pouring its yellow torrents into the surrounding streets, converting them into vortable lakes. At any moment it may be necessary to blow up the Alma bridge, where the water is but a few inches from the keystone of the arch, as a dam there might turn into a river. The city is as to flood several of the most fashionable partitions of the city. During the night the subway stations at the Orléans terminus and at Qual d'Orans were flooded and closed, and the snaking of the Rue de Poilers let the water through a foot and a half deep into the Rue de Lille and the Rue d'I Université, streets in which the Vaugard district near the Boucleau hospital also is lined. The weather grows worse rather than better, and at noon Paris was the center of an era of low pressure and bitter cold. Rain and sleet were falling throughout the flooded regions, adding to the suffering of the poor and homeless. The price of bread and other foods increases owing to the fact that communication with the provinces is crippled. The supplied supply of drinking water has ceased the greatest alarm. With the rise of the flood just a few inches higher the pumping stations still in operation must stop, and Paris, in the midst of a miniature ocean, will be without water fit to drink. The situation at between twenty and thirty suburban towns above this city is worse than in the capital itself At Charcotton where the swollen river Home of the Sine are an area of 20 square miles has been flooded The submerged district includes At fortville and very-SurSeine with a total population of 50,000. At this point the soldiers are firemen are doing heroic work in rescuing families in boats and pontons At Fortville the cemetery has been washed out and caskets having been placed in floating places are floating down stream The animals of the Zoological Garden which were in danger of drowning have been removed to higher ground Physicians fear an epidemic when the floods subside, as the overflowing sowers are likely to contaminate the river and the rate driven out of their underground homes are invading residences.

BOYCOTT MAKES MEAT PRICES DROP There Has Been No Apparent Change In Retail Prices, But Big Decline is Exposed Before Another Week. Pittsburg, Jan 26 — The effect of the first day's boycott on high价 food prices in this city was immediate. Wholesale prices, which were slowly coming down, took a slump. More than 125 000 workmen began their thirty days attnance from meat. Hogs, heavies, which on Saturday sold at $8.85 and on Monday at $7.70, dropped to $6.65 Hogs, mediums, which had been selling at $8.90 and $7.70, dropped to $6 Pigs, which on Saturday were $7.75 and on Monday $6.60, were quoted at $30 Tuesday Lambs remained at $ Choice cattle, which brought $7.50 on Saturday, sold from $405 to $2.50. Our cattle sold from $405 to $2.50. Good cattle was the one exception. It advanced 20 cents over Monday's price, being quoted Tuesday at $9.90, as against $70 Saturday's quotation on good cattle, however, was $8.40. The boycott has had no apparent effect on the retail markets. Butchers quoted round steak at 15 cents the pound, sirloin, 18 and 20 cents about der steak, 15 cents lamb chops 15 to 20 cents, pork chops 15 to 20 cents, the 16 cent rate prevailing where a whole loin is bought, sliced ham 25 cents, whole hams, 17 and 18 cents, according to quality while the other grades of meats are selling in prosections. The dealers declared that there has been no advance in prices for weeks Trade has decreased to some extent because of the boycott. One dealer in pork saled butchers are buying to supply only immediate goods, believing that there will be a big decline in the price before another week. Butter and eggs will in a few days be under the boycott the same as is meat at present. Pearing this butter dealers began to scale their prices, and in some instances the price was 6 cents per pound. Eggs too, while they are the cold storage brands, are beginning to come down in price and as much as 2 and 3 cents a dozen was loomed off. Eat meat only once a day and you will help to solve the problem of the cost of living and also improve your health' is the advice of Dr E B Walters director of the department of health Dr Walters and Dr J. C McNall superintendent of the human food inspection, are convinced that the operation of a municipal shatter would reduce materially the cost of meat to the consumer and would provide meat known to have been properly inspected. Developments indicate that the buy cott is a genuine result. Butter stalls and markets in the residential sections are well nigh deserted. There was a rush in the fish markets. Fish prices are lower than they have been here in some months and the consumption of oysters and fish will be startling, according to one of the dealers GOTHAM FOOD PRICES DROP Milk, Eggs and Butter Much Cheaper in New York New York Jan 26. Milk eggs and butter led the process of recording prices in food products. Nationwide agitation, aided by potent local in-fluences, have brought about the drop in food prices, following a greatly reduced consumption. State and monopoly laws are to be invoked in the movement to combat the trusts g卑ity of advancing food prices. A special grant jury whose particular office it will be to consider the effect of combinations among dealers in foodstuffs was sworn in. While it is expected first to deal with the alleged milk combine the most damaging and possibly the whole挤食 the food situation will be taken in during the probing. Milk is down a cent a quart already on the routes of at least two big dealors, butter in the best qualities has been cut 5 cents a pound and eggs are off 5 cents a dozen in local marshmallows. But the real selling as "artfully fresh" at high prices are no longer put out as such, the big wholesalers say WANT EXPORT TAX ON MEAT Father of Boycott Circulating Petitions to Be Sent to Congress. Cleveland, O Jan 26 - Fred W. Bebelin, originator of the meat boycott, and Mayor Beah discussed the anti-meat satiation and suggested that the meat industry move to have congress impose an export tax upon meat. This plan is supplementary to the petitions now being-circulated The petitions will be presented to congress. While the wholesale price has been going down steadily, there has been no lowering of prices. The petitions contain in the local retail market. The signing of abstinence pledges still continues. Compliment to the Highlanders During the war in South Africa at order was issued that all men of the highland regiments must cover up their uniforms, as it was thought that they made too obvious targets for the enemy. Sir George White, who knew that the order would not pop poppies, thought that they would not cover their uniforms, he said, "The enemy will never see the other idea." Colonel John Sneed's Conversations on Domestic Problems Copyright. 1800. by C. S. Yost. III.—How to Keep Young. YOUNG Mrs Rollins was dressed for the opera when Colonel Snook, her father, entered. The old gentleman threw up his hands in mock astonishment and chucked with delight. "My, my, my, child," he exclaimed, "you look as fine as the queen of Sheba." And I let it, he added, "you're a doggone sight sighter. Turn around, honey and let me get a sort of panoramic view of you." With an indulgent smile Mrs Rolls revolved. "The more I look the better I like," it said the colonel. "But the wrappin' isn't any too good for what's inside of it. And that reminds me that I haven't kissed you yet. You dazzled me so I plum forgot. Kind of turn your check up to one side so I won't miss it." But last, the Colonel was running the end of his tongue over his lips, and there was a puzzled expression on his face. "What's the matter, paran?" asked Mrs. Rollina, with twinkling eyes seen quite familiar," he answered "What is it, honey?" P "Oh, it's just a little touch of rouge daddy, that's all!" "Huh!" "grunted the colonel." "Beginnin' to paint the lily already, are you well, I don't take much stock in artificial colors, but I reckon the principle's all right. You see, there's where's William! Dressin' eh? Just got honest! I'm afraid that boy is workin' too hard." "DON'T BEEN QUITE afraid that boy is FAMILIAR" workin' too hard. Think I'll alt down and chat with you anyhow until he comes down. "As I was goin' to remark, the little girl was going to the market and arranged himself comfortably in the big armchair. "I've got some rather peculiar notions about keepin' young I'm a long ways from being an old man yet, but I've been around here a considerable time, and maybe I can understand what every woman wants to know "I reckon you've heard that old songs about a woman bein' as old as she looks, while a man just as old as he looks. Well, there some truth in the distinction, for looks have a whole lot more to do with a woman than a man, but all the same it's the feeling that counts in the long run and it counts just as much for one sex as it does for the other. You're goin' to feel young, and if you feel young the looks will take care of themselves. Now there's a good deal more in that statement than I can work out for you while William gets into his dress shirt but it all slums down to this; that the way to keep young is to quit grown old. What that thing call a KEEPING TOOK parabox isn't it? Hub! Well I don't care what you label it it's the right formula. Of course you understand I am not talkin about yours! I am talkin about looks and feelings. Ive got to admit that time has some influence, but it only relative. I know a fellow down town who's thirty five years old and he acts like he was about ten. There such a thing as keepin too doggie young, you know I see women that way too. Then there another fellow I know who isn't over forty and of who I don't know. So you see, honey, the calendar don't count in the game as much as people imagine. It's the looks and feelings, but principally the feeling's, that make you old or keep you young. "And you need just two things, little girl, to keep you feeling young I've been keepin' them a secret, avin' them for you. One of them is what is called a stiff upper lip the other's a tapered nose the other's tapered nose toward life; the other's a physical condition. A 'man or a woman with a stiff upper lip don't get discouraged, don't get the blues, don't worry about trifles. When a black cloud comes along she grabs it and turns it around so the silver thin' will show; she finds out what her duty is to help her friends, she fusses about it; she don't make mountains out of mollehins nor cross bridges until she gets to them, and if there's any fun gain on in her neighborhood she's gain' to have her share of it without makin' a fool of itself." "Now, did you ever, see anybody with a straight back who was really old? No, she's not. No, since you never did. Keep your backbone straight, honey, whatever you do. The minute it begins to ang or bend that very minute old ear starts down the road to meet you. It's easy enough to keep it straight now, while your years are few, but after awhile you'll begin to feel like lettin' your shoulders droop, and if you let them do it, why, pretty soon your chest will go in, and your stomach will push out, and the wrin- "MOUNTAINS OUT OF MOLEBILLA" kies "it begin to multiply. You'll look and, what's more, money, you'll feel old. The backbone was made to support your head, and when the sup begin to get wabbit you can't superstructure with foillet creams. "Not that I'm against toilet creams; bless your life, no. I believe in a woman lookin' as handsome as she can as long as she can, and when I see one of sixty, as I do every day or so over home, masagna her neck is too tight, and when it is, into her cheeks, why, I glory in her spunk. But—and I want you to get this straight in your mind, honey—if she didn't have a straight back and a stiff upper tip she wouldn't do dain't that sort of thing. When your spinal column begins to droop you begin to quit carin' much about your body. If you haven't got enough ammonia, you're not gone' to have enough to rub the crow's feet from the corners of your eyes, and the only thing you can do is to get some red and white paint and cover up the cracks. But paint, my dear, won't keep you young. It's all right in an emergency I believe every woman ought to have a little pignt on her toilet table for me to use. And when she has her eyes and no color in her cheeks and she's compelled to go out in com- pank—when she's pank, in fact, and don't want to show it, then I think it's all right to put up a good straight bluff. But honey, don't you get the notion in your head that you've got to swab around with a paint brush every time you go out Nice. Put a color in a jar that is anywhere near as fine as the data that nature puts pany—when she's slick, in fact, and don't want to show it, then I think right to put up a good straight bluff. But honey, don't you get the notion in your head that you've got to swab a around with a paint brush every time you go out. No man ever put a color in a jar that was anywhere near as fine as the tints that nature puts in a woman's face, and if she don't keep her buried under artificial pliages they still stay with her as long as she hides herself away with face to face and gets all the life, straight back and a stuff upper up little girl but all the cosmetics on earth." Going to Church There is a cautionary lesson for sleep in late on Sunday morning and none of them has a suit. It just instills pure and unobtrusive inness. That what it is. We're not of us a last minute or less mostly unstressed and it's a powerful impatient to end in bed until the dinner is set, digging, but all the same, it doesn't a good habit to get it.

Jan 28—While attempting to kill a dog, Edward Hosteler, a farmer reading six miles north of South Bend, shot and instantly killed Mr. Melford彩照 a neighbor. The bullet struck the woman in the temple and she fell dead at her husband's Hosteler, who is alleged to have a mania for killing dogs, was chasing a mongrel from his place and upon his reaching the highway, fired a shot after the fleeing dog.

As a substitute small glasses of sweet elder may be used, grape juice, fruit punch, which contains no liquor, orangeade or lemonade or any one or another of the so-called 'soft drinks'. The drink is served in wine or champagne glasses at the proper time for the drinking of the toasts. Perhaps the nicest thing, in the opinion of many people, is white grape juice. It is very pretty, a pale amber color usually, and is particularly suitable for serving at dinner The Difference , Why is it that when a small boy does something wrong, his mother all ways says: "I'll have your father wake you when he comes home tonight," but when a small girl does some forbidden thing, does ma say that dad will attend to her case?

THE DLNGT Senator Tillman Blunders Continued from the First page. of humanity I am going to do the best I can to head off that team (Loud laughter) THOSE ABBERATIONS OF THE MIND Now my friend the distinguished Senator from South Carolina I have known well, have been glad to know have been honored by his friendship and I want to assure you that he is a good deal better fellow than you sometimes think from what he says. He is not always one who sits and talks thinking about the race question and misgénation and amalgamation and that sort of thing. He does have other thoughts, but when he goes on his feet and stars on that slippery subject it requires a good deal of force or a good deal of pause to keep him from going further than he really wanted to go him self. WILL NOT ANNEN CUBA Now he tells my friend from Cuba that we are going to anneaux Coton Well. I don't think so. He thinks that because Cuba has a rare question we have got to try their race question with our own question not have a sort of result with sulphur rising from it that is going to consume the world. I don't believe that Senator does think so, as these words roll from it. He also and they have rolled from it as the new amusement on the Senate floor and from the stump and have very much plished anything in the way. We will be cannot get to it. GROWING HERB Mr Taft patched a glowing picture of the Philippines and said he felt that, end of the East of which Kittling had told Mr Tillman he said, thought the army in the Philippines had nothing to be proud of because he had not been there. Now the Senator says he has been allowed to think but the officers of the army have not been Mr Taft remarked. Well I contend that the circumstances with the result of the fight. I think the army is ahead of the Senator. This was greeted with great laugh in which Mr Tillman joined Dr. President defended the course of the Mekong Administration in taking over the Philippines. Returning to a remark of Mr Tillman he said. PROBLEM BOTT TANATION Now my friend the Senator is troubled about tautism without representation and about the Declaration of Independence. I am not going into these arguments and I am not going to point out to my friend the Senator some of the most glaring instances that I could point out in his view of the Constitution in South Carolina and his view of the Philippines." This apparent crack at the suppression of the negro vote in South Carolina brought shouts from the audience. There were loud shouts when the President declared that whether we had the Philippines or would have an army of the presents site Mr. Taft made of the opportunities that had been opened to the United States through the Spanish war from which dated the expansion of this country into a great world power and continuing said *PERCULATE THE REMARKS Now I deprive the tone of my friend Senator Tillman in the statement that we are ashamed of all of this. Well I am not ashamed of it because if it had not come that way I should not have been in the White House I know, and if he expects me to shed tears over that he is mistaken (Laughter) I think I know our army and navy well enough to know that while they sing these songs that at times hold up to ridicule our "little brown brothers" in the Philippines they look back to that service with pride and with the belief that they accomplish what no other army could have accomplished in the same time and under the same circumstances with as little blood and as little oppression It may be, as I say, that I am a prejudiced witness I am Never the less a witness may be prejudiced, but he may have such an advantage in opportunities for observation which are denied to those who are only free from prejudice as to make his evidence better than the judge who sits on the case (Cheers) OTHERS THINK DIFFERENTLY The truth is, while my friend the Senator comes from South Carolina and the South I think I know something of the attitude or his brethren in the South with reference to the Philippine Islands and this general policy of expansion, and I think we could have a vote on that alone without introducing the race question and all that sort of thing—the wisdom of our taking the Philippines as we have taken them and developing them as we are developing them, teaching them English and extending to them, as they show themselves fit, self-government. Then the time, may come, and, I hope it may come soon, when they shall be ready to take over a government like that of Australia or Canada, and I say so not because that we might not be willing to part with them but because they will find that under the present arrangement, under the tariff as arranged there and the tariff as arranged here, it is greatly to their advantage to retain some sort of bond, no matter how light, which will justify their continuing to enjoy the benefit of our markets with a free trade tariff toward the Orient. SENATOR TILLMAN AROUSED HIM And now, my friends, I have talked a good deal longer than I intended to but in friend, the Senator, who perched to me that he would not; have said a word if he had not desired to start me up, thoughter, so I had to gratify his desire and show him that he was successful I thank you, my friends for giving me this opportunity to bring back the reminiscences of the Philippines. There were times in the Philippines when no nervous strain upon those who were responsible was tremendous, and the more tremendous because we were so far removed, it seemed, from Washington and the people of the United States. There were times, and they were many when the beauties of life in that country when the associations that we made there, when the feeling that we did have a people who were grateful at times and who listened to us as children depending on us and having confidence in us gave us a pleasure in doing the good which we thought we were doing a pleasure that knew no measure for there is nothing in life equal to the consciousness of hatred attempted to do good for a person and I either in a measure succeeded. MURKLED CONDEMNATION There is no other thought that I wanted to give you, and that was in relation to the carabao. He too told me I must say unfortunate condemnation from my friend the son at that for kind of sympathy with the dark beast and for lack of opportunity of observation. There is no personal that is the friend of the carabao. He moves away he moves boldly, but always in the right direction. He gives me after a time with a request to obstacles. It is not dealing with the Emperor with anything in the hope that you are going to always solitude.

"Hit that?" said Johnson contemptuous "nous" souh! Why. If I had ever hit him in the jaw I would have broken his jaw" "Did you kick him in the head?"
