Hanging over the negroes heads in the state of Missouri is a "Jim Crow" bill which was introduced by certain legislators for the purpose of pushing the negro to the wall and making him cringe before the onslaughter of the white man's prejudice. This bill would be depressive from many standpoints, as it would have a tendency to curb his joyful spirit and stem his ambition. If the bill would pass it would make the negro in Missouri forever republican. If it does not pass it will cause some negroes to be independent voters. Any state that would pass a Jim Crow measure only retards the progress of the negro. The negro is an integral part of Missouri and if anything is done to retard the negro it also effects the component part. Machinery moves in harmony and if the smallest wheel is broken or bent it has a general effect throughout the entire machinery. All states where Jim Crowism prevails is necessarily set back for an indefinite period. These laws are laws for the universe. No living man can fix the status of the sun or curtail its orbs. No man can prevent the hashing of the waves or stop a hurricane in its flight. This is the Will of God. No living man can stop progress of humanity or the tread of civilization. These are laws which God the Father has decreed us. The white leaders of the Republican party believe that they can ignore the negro voters with impunity. It has been a very long time since the negro has had representation in the county. Every race but the negro has a representative in all the offices. At the outset the negro was promised one or two positions. Frank Ross, Samuel Boyer and Oscar Hochland promised negroes positions. In 1902 the negroes organized and fought the county ticket and defeated it. In 1904 the county tlekeves elected and they gave the Negroes promises what would be done. The chairman of the county ticket at that time could not carry out his promises because the candidates elected to office refused to stand by their pledges. At that time the Hon. P. S. Brown pacified a few of the Negro leaders by giving them city viositions. The Negro voters not-withstanding they were angry when the ticket came up for a renewal of confidence. These weak Negro leaders with a couple of two-cent jobs in the city laid down their arms and refused to fight. But this condition has changed for the great multitude of 3,500 Negro voters is demanding a change. These petty leaders among the Negroes working in the City Hall dare not raise their voices and tell the Negroes to come on. If they do, they will be drowned like Pharoah in the Red Sea. The Republicans in the county who were elected believe that they are forever sheltered behind a four year term of office. Rome in all her splendor, sunk beneath the setting sun. Empires which have endured for centuries have faded away. The flowers of Athen's beautiful temples have perished. Father of time the reaper of death falls alike on black and white good and bad, rich and poor. Don't think you are completely shield. The Negroes are determined to take out their revenge on the first Rtpublicans that stick their heads up for office. A year from now comes another election. Thank God the Negro has time to organize to fight the aims of the greedy politicians. We have one thing in common now. A great black wave of prejudice scorn and indignation is sweeping the country to engulf the race. At last you have forced us together. The Negro traitors shall be read out of the race, and purged for their unfaithfulness. The good Negroes shall receive their reward. Remember humble and faithful Negroes just one short year and the howling hounds of war shall be set against the white men who would retard our progress. Organize Negroes of my race for they will need you and need you bad. With the balance of power given unto us, let us rise up and assert ourselves. Senator Hanna says organization is power. O! Temporal! O! Mores. Fortuna ayes and acia.

GRISHAM AS THE MAN OF THE HOUR It was said in ancient times by one of the great philosphers that the principle for which you fight is a genuine part of a man's fight. The same rule applies in this case, even though the Jim Crow measure may pass nevertheless the Negro has put himself on record in a masterful manner against it. Prof. Grisham has done this in his cool logical manner. As principal of the High School for over twenty years and coming with such force in his speech it has made a great impression upon future generations of Negroes to come. Posterity has intended in his some rich jewels that it may wear forever. LINCOLN INSTITUTE NOTES. One of the happiest occasions in the annals of Lincoln Institute was that of Wednesday, February 13, when a large body of Missouri's representative men of color, each man holding a worthy place in his chosen profession or calling, visited Lincoln Institute, listened to recitations, inspected all of the departments and the plant generally speaking. This delegation, headed by one of Nature's noblemen, Bishop Abram Grant, included Professor Grisham, and Harris, Reverends Peck, Stevens, Cook, Gilbert and Stewart; Doctors Unthank and Shannon; Lawyers Houston and Phillips; statesmen or politicians; Crews, Washington and Blackburn. night, Feb. 19th. About 300 persons were present. The program was brief and to the point. Mr. N. W. Jordan defended with much force the principles of Pythianism and Court of Calanthians. Rev. J. M. Booker, pastor of the Pleasant Green Baptist church, the speaker of the occasion, preached the sermon, which was full of good advise and just the kind of a talk the organization and race need. The sermon was a friendly criticism, pointing out the weakness of the Order and race, and a plea for more love and unity among the people. Good music was rendered by the Pleasant Green Choir directed by Mr. W. B. Countee, Mr. F. L. Lewis, master of ceremonies. Collection raised $22.35. The body occupied seats upon the platform in the auditorium during devotional exercises, at the close of which President Allen in his usual gracious manner and with interesting and humorous remarks, announced Bishop Grant, president pro tem of the institution; upon which the bishop in well chosen sentences introduced the speaker for the various callings represented in the delegation. Among these speakers -we note professor Grishma, Dr. Unthank, Reverend Dr. Stevens, Cook and Peck; Lawyers Houston and Phillips; Statesmen Crews and Vashons. Each speech was an inspiration and indicated, in no uncertain sound the friendliness and good-will entertained by each speaker for president Allen specifically and for Lincoln Institute generally. Each speech was replete with sound advice to the student body, and with facts, figures and telling points that cannot be otherwise than helpful now and in the years to come. At the close of the morning session the orchestra treated the distinguished visitors to an impromptu serenade. On the following day Dr. Crossland of St. Joseph and A. B. Blackburn of Kansas City, Kansas, were the honored guests. Both of these gentlemen are patrons of Lincoln Institute and their excellent and timely addresses showed them, like the speakers of the previous day to be firm friends of president Allen and of the administrative policy by meas of which he has made Lincoln Institute, with its more than 500 students, one of the leading negro schools of the country. Another great event of the week was the concert given by students of Lincoln Institute in the Hall of the House of Representatives, for the entertainment of Governor Folk, the state officers and the 44th General Assembly of Missouri, on the evening of February 14. In every sense of the term the concert (literary and musical) was a signal success and on the following vote of thanks was tendered Lincoln Institute and its president by the legislative body assembled. Among those who delivered orations and received well meritorious of applause were the following with subject: "Chester Kimbrough, "Causes of American Prosperity;" Eunice Freeman, "The Home-Making Arts;" Victor Collins, "The Unemployed;" Carrie Sydes, "The Normal School and the Relation to the Training of the Negro;" Josephine S Yates, Jr.; "The Selection and Preparation of Food As Factors in National Development;" Russel Johnson, "The Toilers;" Mayselle Williams, "The Poetry of the Bible;" Ruti Cooper, "Cleniness Next to Godli Godliness." The vocal solos by Miss Zerela Gordon, the violin solos by Miss Pansy Phelps, the renditions of the Glees Club and of the orchestra, the choruses, jubilee songs and instrumental duets were all thoroughly enjoyed by a critical but keenly appreciative audience. Many congratulations and requests for a reposition of the concert at an early date have been received by President Allen. Knights of Pythias Celebrate The Eastern and Western hemisphere held their 43rd anniversary services at the Second Baptist church 10th and Charlotte Streets. Tuesday night, Feb. 19th.

"Unwritten Law"; Notable Instances of Its Application. PRINCE BALDWIN THE KILLING OF A ABEILLE BY EDWARD DENCON PARKER ARCHDUKE OTTO His Application Bereaved the Emperor of Austria, Who Took No Revenge for the Killing of His Son—Prince Baldwin of Belgium, Heir Apparent to the Throne, Violated Its Provisions, and His Slaver an Indignant Husband. Was Never Troubled by the Authorities—It Has a Relation. Too, in European Countries to the Duch, to Cheating and to Suicide. According to It the Correspondent in a Divorce Case Is Expected to 'Pervure Himself Like a Gentleman' - Unless Stanford White Was Actually Caught in the Act of Insulting Mrs Harry Thaw. Her Husband Was Not Justified in Killing Him Under the Unwritten Law. Of all the popular phrases of the English language there is none that is more misused and misunderstood than that of "unwritten law." And just at the present time it is on everybody's lips in connection with the trial for murder of Harry K. Thaw. To judge from popular comment, one would imagine that its jurisdiction was restricted exclusively to one or at the most two particular classes of homelife. But it covers a far larger ground and affects almost every phase of our life. Among the several stories current concerning the mysterious tragedy of Meyerling, which robbed the venerable emperor of Austria of his only son, the most generally accepted version is that he was slain by the uncles of Baroness Marie Vetsera or else that he was subjected by them to such bodily injuries that he blew his brains out, the men having learned of the prince's intention to cut adrift from the girl, in compliance with his pledge to his parents, instead of marrying her after securing a divorce from Crown Princess Stephanie. Prince Baldwin Paid Penalty. In Brussels, in the Avenue Louise, foreign visitors are still shown a deserted house, where Prince Baldwin of Belgium, favorite nephew of King Leopold, and heir apparent to the throne, was killed by an indignant husband of princely but not royal rank. In his instance, however, the tragedy was followed by a separation of the noble couple involved. Baldwin of Belgium, in spite of his popularity, PRINCE BALDWIN THE KILLING OF A. ABEILLE EDWARD DENCON PARK ```markdown ``` was universally regarded as having received his deserts, and his assailant looked upon as having complied with the requirements of the code of social ethics. Nor was he ever troubled by the authorities in connection therewith, and remained a respected member of his class, and of the community in general, and of society, both at home and abroad. When the late Edward Parker Deacon found A. Abelie, the French club- man and race horse owner, in the apartments of Mrs. Deacon on that memorable night in the hotel at Nice, and shot him as he endeavored to conceal himself behind a sofa, he acted strictly in accordance with the demands of unwritten law, and it may safely be assumed that if he had been a Frenchman instead of a foreigner, and an American at that, he would never have been sentenced to even the brief term of imprisonment to which he was condemned. Unwritten Law and the Duello. Duelling is even more stricty forbidden by law in England than on the continent. But if a member of the English diplomatic service, or an officer of the English army or navy, receives while abroad a challenge to fight, or is made the subject of an indignity calling for redress to fight, he is forced to resign not only his commission but also the membership of his clubs. Not even all the immense social influence of colonel the Hon. Frederick Wellesley, brother of the late Earl Cowley, and now husband of the widowed Duchess of Wellington, was able to save him from a fate such as this while acting as charge d'affaires of Great Britain at Vienna some 12 or 15 years ago. Col. Wellesley, who was also A. D. C. to Queen Victoria, became involved in the Austrian capital in a quarrel about a woman with an Austrian nobleman, Count K., who resented to such an extent his behavior, as well as his remarks, that he struck him with his glove across the face and challenged him to fight. Wellesley refused, however, to accept the challenge on the ground that by so doing he would render himself liable to dismissal from the army, owing to the fact that the English articles of war prescribe the penalty of being cashiered for every officer involved in a duel either as a principal or as a second. Called to Task by His General. Wellesley was at once relieved of his office of charge d'affaires at the suggestion of the Viennese court, which did not relish the idea of being compelled to accord diplomatic honors to a man who had thus shown the white feather, and shortly after his return to London one of his fellow-officers of the Guards, Capt. John Delacour, who had witnessed the affair at Vienna, brought the matter before the notice of the other members of the corps. In due course it reached the ears of the old duke of Cambridge, cousin of Queen Victoria and general-issimo of the British army. He sent for Col. Wellesley and asked him if it were true that he had taken shelter behind the army regulations to avoid NG E BY ARKER the consequence of a quarrel at Vienna, thereby bringing discredit to the corps of officers of the famous regiment to which he belonged. Wells- ley, of course, was obliged to admit that he had been guilty of the charge. "Then," said the duke, "you had better leave the army." "Leave the army, sir?" exclaimed the colonel. "But what am I to do if I leave the army?" "Turn dancing master and be TURN DANCING MASTER AND BE DAMNED TO YOU MRS E P DEACON. A JAPANESE OF RANK COMMITING HARI-KIRI EDWARD PARKER DEACON. damned to you!" replied the burly old royal prince, swinging on his heel and ordering his aide-de-camp in waiting to show the colonel to the door. A few days later it was announced that Col. Wellesley, who in his boyhood had been a page of honor of Queen Victoria, had been "graciously permitted" to resign his commission in the army. How an Emperor Avenge a Blow. How an Emperor Avenges a Blow. In the same way that European officers are debarred from fighting duels with people of the working classes, so are they precluded from meeting royal personages and crowned heads on the field of honor. If a young officer during a heated argument with some comrade of royal or imperial rank receives a blow, he has no alternative but to blow his own brains out. On one memorable occasion Emperor Francis Joseph intervened in person to prevent an act of self-destruction of this kind. The late Archduke Otto, his nephew, while endearing in a drunken freak to con- MRS E.P. DEAGON A JAPANESE OF RANK COMMITING HARI-KIRI. duct a bacchanalian party of men and women into the apartments of his wife, the Archduchess Marie Josepha—in order, as he explained, that they might see what an archduchess looked like in bed—was stopped in the corridor leading to her apartments by his alde-de-camp, who drawing his sabre, threatened to run through the body anyone excepting the archduke who endeavored to pass him. The crowd, sobered by the seriousness of the situation, hesitated and then withdrew. But the archduke was so beside himself with rage at being balked in his project that he struck the young officer a blow in the face. The matter was brought to the immediate notice of the commander of the garrison, who communicated by telegraph with the emperor. Francis Joseph ordered that the young officer be prevented from doing himself any harm, at all costs, hastened to the scene from Vienna and, having assembled all the principal officers summoned both his nephew. Archduke Otto, and the young aide-de-camp to his presence. Apostrophizing the latter in his kindliest manner, he exclaimed: "I have to express my gratitude to you, sir, for having undertaken the defense of my dear niece at a moment when she was in urgent need of your protection. In so doing you received a blow for which you yourself cannot obtain satisfaction and which you could not return. But I can redress that indignity for you;" and with that he strode up to Archduke Otto, and before all present slapped his face, thereupon ordering him under arrest for a period of six months, and deprived him of his command. The young officer was promoted and decorated. But had it not been for the emperor's interference and for the manner in which he avenged the afront imposed upon the young A. D. C., the latter would have been compelled by unwritten law to have blown out his brains. Unwritten Law and Perjury. Perjury is according to every criminal code of Europe a felony, yet the correspondent in a divorce case, no matter how guilty, is compelled by the unwritten law to perjure himself in the witness box "like a gentleman," and failure to comply with this requirement entails an ostracism which by many is regarded as worse than death, as one of the most eminent of English statesmen found to his cost. In endeavoring to exculpate himself of the unfounded charge of having betrayed a young married woman whom he had known from childhood, he admitted under examination that he had been guilty of too great intimacy with her mother. This confes- slon, extorted from him in a moment of exasperation and when smarting under a sense of injustice, resulted in the ruin of his political career and in his being blacklisted by English society. Perhaps the most mortal of all sins in the eyes of unwritten law is unfair play at cards, and there are few families of birth and breeding on either side of the Atlantic who would not infinitely prefer to have a murderer among their relatives than a man who has been caught cheating at the card table. For it inflicts a stain upon the family escutcheon which can never be effaced, and which is remembered against the house concerned from generation to generation. A man caught in the act of unfair play is exempt from punishment by the tribunals of the land. But the penalty imposed upon him by unwritten law is immeasurably more severe than anything that statute could devise. For instead of being restricted to himself, it extends to those who are nearest and dearest to him, and he TURN DANCING MASTER AND BE DAMNED TO YOU has no alternative but either to kill himself or else to disappear and seek his fortune in some remote foreign country, where, disguised as to appearance, silent as to his origin, and under an assumed name, he passes his time in fear and trembling lest he should be recognized and be once more driven forth like the wandering Jew of old from his temporary refuge. Construed Insults. There are all sorts of minor provisions of the unwritten law which it would take too much time and space to enumerate here, but among which may be mentioned the rule which construes it as an insult when a man in filling his neighbor's glass slants the bottle backward instead of forward. More than one sanguinary duel has been fought to the personal knowledge of the writer in Austria for a breach of etiquette of this kind. In the same way in the orient, if in showing the blade of a sword to an acquaintance one happens to turn the edge thereof toward him he will consider his honor impugned, and if by any chance he is a Japanese of rank he is capable of going off and committing suicide by ripping himself open, leaving a document stating that having been insulted honor demanded that he should commit hara-kirl, and calling upon his nearest relatives so avenge him. In Relation to the Thaw Case. With regard to the application of the unwritten law to the case of Harry Thaw, there are several considerations to be noted in endeavoring to bring it to bear upon the tragedy of Madison Square roof garden. If young Mrs. Thaw had been without any stormy antecedents, and had been subjected by Stackerd White to indignities and insulting proposals since her marriage, her husband would have been justified, according to the terms of the unwritten law, as understood abroad, in shooting him, though of course it would have been more chivalrous to have given him a chance of defending himself instead of taking him at a disadvantage and unarmed. But, unfortunately, young Mrs. Thaw is not without a past; that she was educated at the cost of White, and had known him first as a school girl, then as a model, and finally as a chorus girl, for several years prior to her marriage, cannot be denied. Her relations with White before becoming Mrs. Thaw, and also her career in New York and Paris prior to her marriage were of a nature to debar her husband from shooting White unless he had actually caught him in the very act of insulting her. That at least is the status of the Thaw-White drama from the point of view of unwritten law.—New York World. ONLY ONE "BROMO QUININE" That is LAXATIVE BROMO Quinine.

"Isn't that the poetess over there in the corner who came to see us after dinner the other night?" asked the girl, "and wept all over the place, telling us her tale of woe; wept so that I went out and got some things for her dinner and cooked them for her and you brought out a bottle of your very best wine and gave it to her?" "Yes," returned the woman, "she doesn't seem to see us now, does she?" "The next time she comes to us with her tale of woe," affirmed the girl severely, "she won't see us, if we catch a glimpse of her first." Oats—Heads 2. Foot Long. The John A.

Some Republican congressmen were discussing the president's suggestion to shut out from the mails such newspapers as have been printing indecent details of the Thaw trial in New York. Mr. Littlefield of Maine indulged in a general review of the press, its powers, functions and privileges. "If it were not for the vigilant press of this country, with its trained corps of representatives in Washington," he said, "I don't know whether I would care to serve in congress. My experience here has taught me that the newspapers perform a service of inestimable value to the country. I sometimes think that congress would drift into many excesses if the press gallery were not here to keep us in bounds." AWFUL NEURALGIA Pain Turned This Woman's Hair White but she Was Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Do not seek relief from suffering simply, but free your system from the disease which is the cause of your suffering. That is the message which a former victim of neuralgia sends to those who are still in its grasp. Hot applications, powders that deaden the senses and others that reduce the heart action may cause temporary relief but the pain is sure to return with greater intensity. Mrs. Evelyn Creusere, who has a beautiful home at 811 Boulevard West, Detroit, Mich., suffered for years with neuralgia until she tried this tonic treatment. She says: "My trouble began about six years ago and I did not rest as I should have, but kept up about my many duties. After a time I became so weak I could not do any work at all. I had severe backaches and such dreadful headaches in the back part and top of my head. My eyes were easily tired and at times I saw black spots before them. I consulted several doctors but without the slightest benefit. The pains were so intense that my hair turned white.

Captor of Dr. Jameson Leading Quiet Existence as Fourth-Class United States Postmaster—Weds an Illinois Girl. New York.—To lose a country and find a wife may not be a bad trade, even if it does involve descending from the seats of the mighty to the position of a fourth-class postmaster in a little hamlet on the very outskirts of civilization. This is, in capsule form, the real life romance of Gen. Benjamin Johanis Villjoen, postmaster of Chamberino, Rio Arriba county, N. M. Ten years ago his name was a household word wherever printing press is known, as the captor of the aspiring but premature Dr. Jameson, the South African M. GEN. BENJAMIN J. VILJOEN. (Dr. Jameson's Captor Now a United States Postmaster.) raider. With equal success he fought the Basto savages, receiving his reward in the shape of a seat in the volksraupl, or senate, of the Transvaal republic. With De Wet and Botha he aided in the shattering of British military idols from the start almost to the finish of the Boer war. Like Napoleon he was sentenced to banishment for life on the lonely rock of St. Helena, and when amnesty was offered he preferred perpetual exile to taking the oath of allegiance to the crown against which he had born arms. Benjamin Johanis Viljoen, now engaged in the humdrum occupation of selling two-cent stamps at Chamberino, was born at Woodhouse, eastern Cape Colony, 35 years ago. In 1886, when but a beardless boy of 18 years, he caught the gold fever and joined the rush of eager Argonauts to the Centenarian Celebrates Birthday by Smoking Her Hipe. Cherryfield, Me.—Appearing in better mental and physical health than she has for some years past, Mrs. Levina Cox, the oldest woman in Maine, celebrated her one hundred and eighth birthday the other day with a party which filled her house in Harrington. Among the many gifts for her were her favorite luxuries, confectionery and tobacco. She refused a new clay pipe, because she has one which she has smoked daily for the last 15 years, and declared that none can be manufactured which will be as sweet and mild as her favorite. Mrs. Cox was born in Columbia, not far from where she new resides. Her first husband was a soldier in the war of 1812, and her second husband served two enlistments in the civil war. Many of her relatives served in the war with Spain, and in all cases they won some distinction. Mrs. Cox walks about the house without assistance, and although small in stature and her features much wrinkled, she does not look the number of her years. Her eyes are bright and she is able to read a few minutes each day without the aid of glasses. Her hearing is remarkably acute, her ears catching perfectly conversation in the lowest of tones. Her appetite is excellent and she sheeps well, despite the fact that she has never used patent medicines which aspiring advertisers have endeavored MRS. LEVINA COX. to thrust upon her during the last few years. She says that she knows tobacco is bad for young people and she doesn't expect to live out half her days if she seps on smoking her pipe, which she Rand. The goddess of the mines did not smile upon his labors, and in 1890 he gave up prospecting to enter the service of the Boer government as assistant public prosecutor. He still longed for adventure, and three years later he became organizing officer of the volunteer militia, with the rank of lieutenant, rising gradually until he became major. His first leap into the spot light was made in 1896, when he gained international renown as leader in the capture of "Doctor Jim," whose misfortune was that he made his spectacular move just a little too soon. For his services at this time Villjoen was promoted to the position of commandant of militia and special commandant of the burgher, or citizen, forces, of Johannesburg. His mettle having been tried and found true, in 1897 he was intrusted with leadership of an expedition in Swaziland. During the latter stages of the heroic Boer struggle for independence against an overwhelming weight of numbers and material resources, Viljoen captured many armored trains, and kept up an unceasing campaign with the object of harassing and worrying the enemy, while his compatriots, De Wet and Botha, were cooperating elsewhere. Two months before the last shot was fired he was ambushed at midnight, while crossing the British cordon with a small escort. His horse was shot under him, and he was severely wounded, making his capture easy. He was sentenced to banishment for life on the island of St. Helena, where he was confined until in the fall of 1902. He was then paroled and returned to South Africa to bid farewell to the land for which he had fought in vain, to sever old ties, and to gather together the little that belonged to him that had escaped the general cataclysm. He was one of the "irreconcilables," steadfastly refusing to accept amnesty at the price of swearing allegiance to the king. A few faithful followers, bound to him by ties of blood, elected to accompany him into exile, and together they set sail for the land of the free arriving in New York in December 1902. The exiles found the hearts and homes of America open to them, and selected New Mexico as their land of opportunity. On his way to his new home Gen. Viljoen forceswore his allegiance to the red god of war, meeting a red-cheeked girl of Illinois in St. Louis, and surrendering unconditionally to the dimpled deity of love. He had lost his country, but he had found a wife, who now rules jointly with him over the post office at Chamberino; and if the shadows of past greatness sometimes haunt him, in her sympathetic arms he banishes regret. has almost constantly in her mouth. In her joking mood she declares that if there are any good looking young men in town who are looking for a good housewife she will consider their proposal. There are four generations in the house where Mrs. Cox lives, her daughter being 76, her grandson 41, and a great granddaughter being 18 years old. Perhaps the most remarkable feature in the longevity of Mrs. Cox is that she has worked hard all her life, rearing a family of six children, caring for live stock, splitting wood and shovelling snow. BRIGGS TO SUCCEED DRYDEN New United States Senator from New Jersey Elected. Trenton, N. J.—In joint session here the legislature chose Frank O. Briggs, of Trenton, state treasurer, to succeed FRANK O. BRIGGS. (Elected to Succeed John F. Dryden as Senator from New Jersey.) as Senator from New Jersey.) John F. Dryden in the United States senate. He received 41 out of 78 votes cast. Mr. Briggs was born in New Hampshire in 1850. He was a student at Phillips Exeter academy and was graduated from West Point in 1872. He served in the Second United States cavalry until 1877, when he resigned to enter the employ of John A. Roebling Sons company here as an engineer, and is now assistant treasurer of the concern. He has always been prominently identified with politics since leaving the army. He was elected mayor of Trenton in 1896 and in 1902 Gov. Voorhees appointed him state treasurer, which position he still holds. In 1904. Mr. Briggs was elected chairman of the Republican state committee and is still at the head of the committee. There were 363 stock and 234 mutual fire insurance companies in the United States January 1, 1907. NEW SENATOR FROM NEW JERSEY FRANK A. BRIGGS FRANK A. BRIGGS. Paymaster's Department Has $2,911, 737 of the Regulars' Money. The American soldier is not highly paid, yet he is a thrifty chap. Last year 54,260 enlisted men saved and deposited with the paymaster's department $1,495,228. This is a respectable sum and represents about 12 per cent of the total pay of all the enlisted men for that period. Had every enlisted man made a deposit the average saving for the year would have been $27.50, but that is the least interesting feature of the system. The figures show that the soldier can deposit, under the law of 1872, only sums of $5 and over. As the pay is small, the total deposits for the year show that the saving habit is continuous with many enlisted men. These deposits bear interest at the rate of four per cent a year, but they can not be withdrawn until the soldier receives his discharge. Last year there was repaid to soldiers the sum of $1,168,236; interest was also paid to the amount of $70,112. The number of men discharged is not given, but the amount repaid shows that their average saving must have been considerable. Since the enacting of the law of 1872 the total deposits have amounted MONUMENT DISPLEAS The Tower at Siena, Italy.

What he Water Is a "Nerve Tonic." "If nervous women would only drink more water they would not be so nervous," remarked a trained nurse the other day. "Nearly every physician will recommend a woman who is suffering from nervous prostration or nervous exhaustion to drink lots of water between meals, but many women who do not come under the doctor's care would feel better and look better if they would drink, say, a quart of water in the course of a day. Water is a nerve food. It has a distinctly soothing effect when sipped gradually, as one can test for herself." Probably. "I saw a picture of a group of children who will be rulers of men some day." "Must be girl children, aren't they?" Houston Post. --- Probably. Abandoned Vessels Are a Constant Menace to Shipping. Even if our merchant marine is languishing we still seem able to lead the world in derelicts. The great proportion of them are American vessels abandoned in American waters. Few are reported west of the sixtieth degree of longitude or south of the Bahamas, the Caribbean sea being very free from them. The reports to the hydrographic office last month allowed no fewer than seven of these menaces affloat on the coast. There was one off the New England coast, two off the coast of the Carolinas, one each off the Virginia and Florida coasts, and one still farther out at sea. Lumber laden derelicts are the most troublesome. It takes them a long time to sink. One such reported in the early 508 drifted over 7,000 miles in 850 days. She was sighted 38 times during that period, showing that she was frequently putting herself in the way of charted ocean travel. Turns Against Woman Suffrage. H. G.

What he saw and heard during the recent commonwealth general election revolutionized his views on the subject. He draws a terrible picture of the effect of female suffrage in the constituency in which he lives. According to Mr Turner, "in this electorate evil has been wrought that it will take years to eradicate. Dissension and disintegration have fallen upon the domes the circle. Lifelong friendships have been withered and an attitude of defiance has replaced that affectionate trustfulness which is woman's chiefest charm." A Redeeming Trait.

Edinburgh, Scotland.—Unless there be an exception on the other side of the Atlantic—for America is steadfastly regarded by the old world as a land of prodigies and possibilities—Scotland thinks it can boast of the youngest astronomer in the world.

The young star-gazer first saw the light of the moon in 1889, and from the wonderful accomplishments since credited to him, it may be safely assumed that he began at once to make inquiries in his infantile mind regard-little in his abnormal interest in the wonders of the firmament, but before the boy's twelfth birthday his father decided that Hector was a an astronoming that golden orb of night shining through the nursery windows. FINE CHURCH ON PRAIRIE. Iowa Farmers Have Built a Cathedral Which Cost $85,000. Eldora, Ia.-At Petersburg, on a prominent point of the fertile prairies of Bremer township, Delaware county, about eight miles northwest of Dyersville stands just completed one of the most beautiful Catholic churches of modern times. It was erected at a cost of $85,000. The church is of a beautiful Gothic design, built of massive rock and cut stone and its dimensions are 54 feet wide and 150 feet long, and at the transepts the church is 74 feet wide. Three beautiful spires adorn the front of the church, and under each of these there are massive arches and also at the transepts supported by strong buttresses giving to the structure five large portals. All the walls are supported by well designed buttresses and the ridges of the roof are decorated with model cresting. The height of the outside wall is 33 feet and the grand arch inside is 45 feet high and the side arches 40 feet. The basement contains a large chapel well furnished. The building is heated by steam. The windows of the church are of grandly decorated glass, and the center of each represents some figure or event spoken of in holy writ. The high altar is one of the best ever manufactured, and everything that Gothic designs could furnish to enhance beauty and devotion seem to have come together here in a remarkable manner. The altar table and tabernacle are made of highly polished Italian marble inlaid with mosaic work and the finials and baldachins are richly decorated in all that art can produce. The funds to build this church were furnished by CATHEDRAL New Catholic Church on an Iowa Prairie. the farmers of the region and the building was dedicated and consecrated free of all debt by Bishop Skinner of Superior, Wis., assisted by Most Rev. Archbishop Keane of Dubuque. In childhood he had more affection for the Big and Little Bears of the heavens than for the woolly ones stuffed with sawdust from the toy shop, and he watched the shooting stars with more interest than he took in his bouncing rubber ball. He learned the signs of the zodiac as easily as the alphabet and listened more attentively to the myths of Diana and Apollo than to the "Forty Thieves" or "Jack, the Giant Killer." His parents encouraged the child but mer born. Accordingly, the youth was given a few astronomical primals as a birthday present instead of the "Arabian Nights" or "Gulliver's Travels." Before another birthday the eager student had worn the covers off these books and had more knowledge of the planets, satellites, comets, meteors and other features of the heaven's canopy than the average person acquires in a lifetime. It was no puzzle to the father to decide what sort of gifts would please his son, and bit by bit the young astronomer accumulated telescopes, orreries, star maps and other paraphernalia and as became a private observer, he fitted up a corner of the country home as an observatory. Here he had ample leisure to cultivate his favorite science. Finding it impossible to get good translations of foreign works on astronomy and astronomers, the lad learned three languages—French, German and Italian—and at the age of 15 he published a book on "Astronomers of To-Day." In reviewing this work a London journalist said: "We do not know the author of this book, but it is clear to us that he has given years of serious thought to the subject and is also fully and accurately acquainted with the works and methods of the world's greatest astronomers." Recently this boy—now only 18 years of age—published a second book, "A Century's Progress in Astronomy." The volume is one of 240 pages and tells in an easy vein the marvelous progress that has been made in this deep but fascinating science during the last hundred years. Young Macpherson is a member of the Societe Astronomique de France and a member of the Societe Belge d'Astronomie. If there be a lad of similar accomplishments and honors in the land of marvels across the sea the young Scotch expert would undoubtedly like to hear of him lest he rest on honors that be not his. TO PAINT POPE'S PORTRAIT. Young American Artist Achieve Great Distinction. William Edwards Cook, who will be the first American artist to paint a portrait of Pope Plus X., is a native of A. H. WILLIAM E. COOK. (American Artist Who Will Paint a Portrait of the Pope.) Independence, Iowa. He now has a studio in Rome, where he has lived for a year, and previously had been a pupil of Julien at Paris. Mr. Cook's first salon picture, exhibited in 1904, was a life-size portrait of the sculptor, Pope of Boston, and the following year he exhibited another life-size portrait. He also has done some mural painting and received honorable mention at the Lazarus competition at New York in 1905. Mr. Cook's father is J. E. Cook of Independence. The artist studied at the Chicago Art Institute and the New York Academy of Design. Remarkable Precocity. The annals of precocious present no more remarkable instance than the brief career of Christian Heinecker, born at Lubeck, February 6, 1721, who died June 27, 1725. At the age of ten months he could speak and repeat every word said to him; at 12 months old he knew by heart the principal events narrated in the five books of Moses; in his second year he learned the greater part of the history of the Old and New Testaments, in his third year he could answer most questions on history and geography and learned to speak Latin and French; in his fourth year he learned the history of the church and also learned to write. His death was caused by his unusual brain activity. Simplon Tunnel Successful.

The father of the senator astonished Delaware about a quarter of a century ago by starting @ hotel on the modern plan, the first of the kind that Dover had ever had and the only one of the kind that many visitors to the capital had seen. When first opened the house was a matter of the utmost curiosity to vis- itors. Rural legislators and their friends looked with astonishment at {ts thickly carpeted halls, its many bathrooms, its heating arrangements, its clectric bells, its lights and all its hodern conveniences. Hardest of all to understand was the hotel dining-room, Instead of one er two long tables it had provision for seating guests in groups of two, three, four or more, ‘This, however, was the smallest in- novation of the ‘wicl dining-room. Farniers accustomed to drive to town with a feed of onts in the wagon for their horses and to dine at the general table of a small inn at a price some- times as low as 25 cents, never above Lait a dollar, heard with sceptical ustonishment of the doings at the new hotel, ‘The dinner was served, they learned, in as many as six courses, with cheese at the end that smelled dreadful and coffee without milk in littie cups that did not hold more than two thimblefuls, Some of the farmers sneaked in rhame-facedly and tried that dinner, which, of course, was served at, mid- Cay. ‘The experience of having fish served as a separate cowrse immedi- ately after the soup was alarminy, for rome feared that there might be Loth- ing else to come, ‘Then those queer made dishes chat came after the fish were puzzling It was only when the roast came on with the familiar vegetables that the tarm- ers began to feel themselves at home, and even then the shifting of plates und knives was embarrassing, They reckoned the hotel must have 4 big bill for dishwashing. Some noticed that a few guests had wine bottles at their places, aud at this the farmers from the back coun: try shook their heads, and wondored what Delaware was coming to. \t was ull well enough for a man to slip into the barroom and gulp a glass of whisky tlone, or with a friend if he happened to be thirsty, but this thing of drink. ing wine with your meals was a bad len. When the dessert time came every- body ordered everything on the bill of fare, as, indeed, the farmers had mostly all the way through the meal, but the cheese was sent away iu haste untasted, and there was a firm de- mand early in the course of the dinner for coffee in large cups with milk. ‘There was a good deal of grumbling when it was found that, eat as fast as 4 man might, he could hardly get through the qinner in less than half aa hour, and much surprise was ex- pressed that some of the guests sat the better part of an hour at table, Those farmers who were not. too much ashamed of what they had done went home and told their wives about that dinner. ‘The foolish extravugance of the blamed thing, especially in the matter of plates and cutlery, was what impressed the popular imagina- tion. News of the thing traveled all over the state, ‘There were hotels like that up at Wilmington everybody had heard, where you could get your din: ner a8 late as two o'clock in the after. noon; bik nobody expected such an institution to be set up at Dover. ‘The senator's name has for years been con spicuous fn business, but to many of his constituents it connotes first of al! that new-fangled hotel. Not For His. A prominent lawyer who formerly practiced at the bar of Kansas City tells of a funny incident in a court there during the trial in which a cer tain young doctor was called as wit nes. Counsel for the other side in cross. examining the youthful medico gave utterance to several sarcastic remarks tending to throw doubt upon the abil ity of 60 young a man, One of the questions was: “You ave entirely familiar with the symp: toms of concussion of the brain?” “Lam.” “Then,” continued the cross-exam. iner, “suppose my learned friend, Mr, Taylor, and myself were to bang our heads together, should we get con: cussion of the brain?” ‘Your learned friend, Mr. ‘Taylor, might,” suggested the young physi: cian.—Harper's Weekly. fear and han Math Geared A bear invaded the village of Main: ville, in Columbia county, Pennsyl- yania. it came up an alley leading from a crees to the main street and was seen by Martin Gruver.

Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. | Beatewstien of Ciasa, The Agricultural Research institute of Bengal has concluded a series of scientific experiments to determine the best method of destroying fleas, the investigation having special ref- erence to checking the ravages of the plague. The formula recommended fs the free use of crude oil emulsion—80 per cent. of crude petroleum mixed with 20 per cent. of whale oj] soap. This combination makes a jelly which mixes freely with waten, and is gen- eraily used at three per cent. solution, while at 16 per cent. it destroys all fleas with perfect certainty. It 1s ap- plied to floofs and walls with sprayer. It is sald that an animal washed with it will be entirely relieved of the pests. VERY BAD FORM OF ECZEMA. Suffered Three Years—Physicians Did No Good—Perfectly Well After Using Cuticura Remedies. “I take great pleasure in informing you that I was a sufferer of eczema in a very bad form for the past three years.

I commenced using the Cuticura Remedies, consisting of Cutieura Soap, Ointment and Pills, three months ago, and to-day I am prefectly well, the disease having left me entirely, I cannot recommend the Cuticura Remedies too highly to any one suffering with the disease that I have had.

Few peo- ple while threading a needle have ever given a thought to the various processes through which the wire must pass before it comes out a needie, Yet the manufacture of needles includes some 21 different processes from cutting the wire and threading the double needles by the eyes to separating the two needles on the one length of wire, heading, hard: ening in oll, cleaning out the sides of the eye, polnt-setting, and final pol: ishing. For wrapping purple paper is used, since It prevents rusting.
