VOL. XVII A BRACE OF HORRORS TWELVE LIVES CRUSHED OUT Seven Victims Die In One Wreck and Five In the Other—Besides Dead Four Are Fa tally Injured. Twelve men killed, four seriously injured, and two missing is the result of two wrecks on the Auburn branch of the New York Central railroad Tuesday. As the result of a collision seven miles west of Auburn, N.Y., between a west bound passenger train, and a steam derrick seven trainmen are dead, two seriously injured and two missing. The dead are: Edward Eavine, of Rochester, N. Y., baggageman on the passenger; Frank Hines, of Rochester, N. Y., fireman; John Helsman, of Rochester, N. Y., engineer; Engineer Durand, of Syracuse; John Evans, member of the derrick crew; Thomas Burke, Syracuse, derrick crew; Joe Shoemacher, of Rochester, N. Y., fireman; Edward H. Renner, a trailman, and Thomas Shipmuck, of the deck crew, are seriously hurt. It is reported that two other men are missing. As the passenger train was rounding a curve a few miles west of Aurellus, going at a fast ellp, it met the steam derrick running "wild" from Candelgua to Syracuse. The two engines were badly wrecked. Engineer Helsman and his fireman, of the passengertrain, were plinioned under the wreckage, and after an hour's work were taken out dead. The other dead men were subsequently removed from the heap of wreckage. No passengers were injured. The blame for the accident, it is thought, rests with the steam derrick crew. Five Die In This Wreck. Soon after this wreck five men were killed and two fatally injured two and a half miles west of Aurelius. A passenger train and a wrecking train collided head-on while rounding a curve at full speed. The dead are: John Hazeman, of Rochester, engineer of the passenger train; Frank Hiles, of Rochester, fireman passenger train; Edward Vine, Rochester, baggageman; Engineer Durand, of Syracuse, crew of the wrecking train; Fireman Schmuck, Syracuse, of the wrecking train. Injured: Trainman D. H. Renner, of Rochester; Evans, member of the wrecking crew. Both engines and the baggage car of the passenger train were demolished. CHRISTIAN SCIENCE A FRAUD. Atlanta Preacher Thus Denounces Faith of Old Lady Eddy. Christian Science was the subject of a Sunday sermon by Rev. W. J. Holtzclaw, guest of the Jones Avenue Baptist church, Atlanta, who spoke from his own pulpit. The faith he declared to be blasphemous and a fraud. Mrs. Eddy he declared to be an illiterate imposter who is working for money and who knows her doctrines to be deceits. His text was Colossians, 2:6: "Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit." In part Dr. Holtzclaw spoke as follows: "The fad is a fraud and I have facts to prove it. Who is Mrs. Mary Baker G. Eddy, who poses as the author of the fad? She is a woman now about 80 years of age, notwithstanding that her followers are forced to sell a picture made from a crayon drawing representing a woman of 40 years and which purports to be a picture of Mrs. Eddy. The purpose of this is to show what so-called Christian Science will do toward preserving the body. Mrs. Eddy's picture as she appears today looks to be that of an old woman at least 90 years old. Mrs. Eddy teaches her followers to believe that God has revealed to her the power to cause disease, death and business disaster, and yet at the same time she teaches them that sickness and pain do not really exist. Where is the harmony in this? As a result of this duping hundreds of children and others are allowed to suffer for the want of medical attention." Judge, Jones Memorial, Orator. Judge Thomas G. Jones, of Montgomery, whom President Roosevelt lately appointed United States district Judge. of Alabama, has, accepted the invitation to deliver the oration at Grant's tomb in New York city.

HENRY AT CAPITAL State Reception Is Given Prince By Official Washington. ENTERTAINED AT WHITE HOUSE Cordially. Welcomed By President. Visits German Embassy and Congressional Halls-Day Closes With Dinner. Prince Henry of Prussia and suite, accompanied by the welcoming delegates from both the president and the Germany embassy, arrived in Washington at 10:30 o'clock Monday morning, promptly on schedule time. The trip from Baltimore to Washington was without incident. The prince's stay in Baltimore was necessarily very brief. His train was met at the union station by the mayor of Baltimore and an escort of twenty-four prominent citizens. Two hundred members of the various German singing societies were also admitted to the station. The mayor then presented an engrossed copy of the resolutions of welcome which had been adopted by the city council, and the prince, accepting it, replied: "I thank you heartily, sir, for your cordial welcome and kind words, and beg that you will say to the people of Baltimore for me that I thank them, too, with all my heart." Secretary of State Hay, Secretary of the Navy Long, Assistant Secretary of State Pierce, who had charge of the arrangements at the Washington depot, and Count Quadt and two other attaches from the German embassy awaited the arrival of the train at the depot. After an informal welcome the party was driven at once to the white house. The welcome the prince received from President Roosevelt was genuinely hearty and open-handed, and he in turn showed unmistakable evidence of the pleasure it gave him to meet the president of the American people. From the white house the Prince was driven to the German embassy, arriving there shortly after 11 o'clock. At 11:40 President Roosevelt returned the call of the prince. Following the call of the president came that of the commissioners of the District of Columbia, who called to extend to the prince the welcome of the city of Washington. One of the most brilliant functions of the day was at 2 p. m., when Prince Henry received at the German embassy the members of the diplomatic corps, including the ambassadors and ministers, accompanied by their staffs of military, naval and civil attaches, all in full uniform. At 3:40 p. m. the prince left the embassy accompanied by the German ambassador and Admiral Evans to go to the capital. The visit to the capitol must have been not only a gratifying experience to the royal visitor, on account of the warm and flattering reception he received at both the house and senate, and of the opportunity it afforded of meeting personally the leaders of both houses, but it must have been an extremely interesting experience as well. Prince Henry not only saw the houses of the American parliament at work, but in the senate he witnessed one of those rare and intensely dramatic moments which comes in that body occasionally at the conclusion of a great debate. In the house the speaker, who was awaiting him, greeted the prince with a warm hand-shake as Mr. Hitt presented "his royal highness." Generial Henderson invited the prince to be seated while the German ambassador made the other introductions, and then in a few words formally welcomed him. The dinner given to the prince by President Roosevelt at the white house Monday night closed the honors bestowed on the royal visitor by official Washington for the day. The affair was on an elaborate scale and brought together a most distinguished company. FLORIDA POLITICAL POT. Matters Are Shaping For Big State Primary the Coming Summer. The political pot in Florida has begun to boll. Matters are rapidly shaping themselves for the big primary next summer, and candidates are announcing themselves for the several offices to be filled. The greatest interest attaches to the contest for the United States senatorship. At present there are but two announced candidates, Hon. S. R. Mallory, of Pensacola, the incumbent, and former Senator Wilkinson Call. NAMES RESTORED TO ROLL. Republicans Now Admit That Wrong Was Committed In "Disfranchis- ing" Tillmarr and McLaurin. A Washington special says: The most important development Tuesday in connection with the Tillman-McLaurin episode of Saturday was the act of Senator Frye, president pro tem, of the senate, in ordering the clerk of the senate to restore the names of the two South Carolina senators to the senate roll. If the present plan is carried out this act will be followed by the adoption by the senate of a resolution before a vote on any other subject is taken practically endorsing the action of the president pro tem. in ordering their erased and suspending the two senators for some definite time. The order of Senator Frye for the restoration of the names to the rolls was issued almost immediately after the senate convened Tuesday and was the result of a general conference among the republican leaders of the senate. When asked for an explanation of this order, Senator Frye said: "In my rulings yesterday I believe that I was trictly within parliamentary laws that senators in contempt are not entitled to recognition either to speak-or to vote, and that logically their names should not be called. I still adhere to that opinion, but, desirous of shifting the responsibility from the chair to the senate, I have directed the clerk to restore to the roll call the names of the two senators from South Carolina." When asked if the result of this action would be the recognition of either of the senators to either vote or speak, Senator Frye replied that it would not, and that was a question which must be decided by the senate. All official Washington recognizes the indefensible position of the republicans. It is recalled that Senator Spooner and Senator Frye, republicans directly responsible for the encounter Saturday, the former by reason of his persistent and uncalled for goading of Tillman into making the charge against McLaurin and the latter for his hasty message to McLaurin to come into the senate and reply to Tillman. The democrats were ready to renew, their fight against the majority for having sustained the president pro tem. in striking from the roll, the names of Tillman and McLaurin. This event was the climax of Monday's proceedings. The democrats did not object so much to the imposition of the "closure rule" on Senator Aldrich's motion, under which the Philippine tariff bill was passed, as they did to the summarily disfranchisement of the two South Carolina senators. Their contention was that, under the constitution, these men must be permitted to vote so long as they are members of the senate. It made no difference that they were under charges of contempt, they said, nor would it have made any difference if they had been under arrest and in the custody of the sergeant-at-arms. Their names must be kept on the roll and called and they must be permitted to vote, until they had been tried and expelled by a two-thirds vote and the seats declared vacant. DURBIN IN CHARLESTON. Governor of Indiana; and His Staff, Visits the "Ivory City." Governor W. T. Durbin, of Indiana, with his staff, consisting of General B. A. Richardson, seven colonels and seven majors, many of them accompanied by their wives, arrived at Charleston Tuesday morning en route home from a trip to Cuba. They were welcomed by the mayor and the exposition authorities, and spent most of the day at the exposition. On Wednesday, Indiana day, they were accorded a reception at the woman's building and went on an excursion around the harbor. Revenue For January. The internal revenue for January, 1902, amounted to $20,856,772, a decrease from January, 1901, of $3,091, 006. WOMEN AS. MOONSHINERS. Russell County, Virginia, Grand Jury Returns Indictments. Ninety indictments have been returned by the Russell county, Virginia; grand jury, alleging illicit whisky selling. Twenty-five cases are against Mrs. Bud Ramey, nheteen, against: Sallie Ramey and several against Geneva Ramey. It is claimed the latter professed illicit many times when summoned. Finally the court ordered her brought on a litter, when she came, not assisted, and was indicted by the grand jury. President Withdraws Invitation to Prince Henry Dinner. SENATE FRACAS THE CAUSE South Carolinian Defies Request of President and Declare He Has Been Insulted—Salty President Roosevelt withdrew his invitation extended to Senator Tillman, of South Carolina, to attend the dinner given Inst Monday night in honor of Prince Henry, of Prussin, at the white house. It is stated that this action on the part of the president was made necessary from the fact that it was due to the occurrences on the floor of the senate Saturday, when the senator from South Carolina was declared in contempt of the senate. Senator Martin, of Virginia, a member of the committee on naval affairs, refused an invitation in Mr. Tillman's place. The invitation was, extended originally to Mr. Tillman owing to the fact that he is the ranking minority member of the naval affairs committee. Senator Frye, president pro tem, of the senate, gave directions to the clerks of the senate Monday morning that, the names of Senators Tillman and McLaurin, of South Carolina, must not be called on roll calls until further notice. There was a sensational sequel to the decision of the president to eliminate Senator Tillman from the list of dinner guests. The president sent for Senator Cockrell, of Missouri, and asked him as a friend and democratic colleague of Mr. Tillman to suggest to the latter the propriety of withdrawing his acceptance of the dinner invitation. Mr. Tillman, absolutely refused to withdraw his acceptance, in response to the president's suggestion. The president immediately cancelled the invitation in a note he dispatched directly to Mr. Tillman. Curt Note to Tillman. The following is the letter from the white house withdrawing Mr. Thilman's invitation to dine there Monday night: "White House, Feb. 24.—The president regrets that he is compelled to withdraw the invitation to you to dine tonight at the white house. Commenting on the letter, Mr. Tillman says: "The president, of course, has the right to invite any one he chooses to dine with him officially or otherwise and also has the right to withdraw such invitation. As I am not conscious of having done anything personal or official which gives the president the right to insure, I am surprised at his action. The invitation to the dinner came to me unsought and unexpectedly, and so far as the withdrawal is concerned, it is a matter of absolute indifference to me. "It is the motive behind it which seeks to put me in the condition of unworthiness to meet the president and his guest before final action by the senate comes from a country where customs makes it obligatory upon any man who regards himself a gentleman to promptly resent an insult and the method is by challenge to a duel. "That was once the custom, but it is obsolete in the United States, and we have been forced as a people here to cling to the old Anglo-Saxon rule of considering the lie direct as the first blow, and no man could hold up his head in decent society should he, being near enough to answer the lie with a blow, not give it. "As for my being in contempt of the senate which I presume is the excuse for this insult at the hands of the president, that I deny. I have been, guilty of a breach of the rules and the privileges of the senate. The senate was not sitting as a court, but as a legislative assembly. "It has the right to expel me if it sees fit, and I am ready to abide by its judgment and action. It has the right to arrest me and hold me in custody until it makes disposition of my case, but it has no right to gag me, and the president has no right to judge me, guilty of conduct; unbecoming a gentleman until he belies all his antecedents; which lead one to believe that his would have done just as I did under the circumstances." "As to which of us is the gentleman in this matter, in view of the insignificant invitation to danker at the white house, sed it, indecent withdrawal. I am writing to salute by the judgment of all brave and self-respecting men." NO.21. A Washington special says: It is estimated at the state department that fifteen days have now elapsed since the money for Miss Stone's ransom was paid over to the agents of the brigands. At least five days have elapsed beyond the time fixed in the stipulation to place her in the hands of her friends. There is no explanation for the delay. It is hoped that physical conditions, such as heavy snows and adverse weather, may account for the failure to secure her delivery. The officials are loath to believe that there has been a breach of faith on the part of the brigands, but even if this wered so, they do not regard themselves as blameworthy for having trusted them. From the first the United States government has been adverse to paying ransom, but in response to appeals from every quarter reluctantly authorized Mr. Leishman to deal with the brigands. However, if it turns out that the brigands have broken faith and that they have either taken the rainsome money and spirited the captives away again, or that they have killed them, then there will be no further attempt to deal with the brigands on the part of the United States government, but its entire power will be directed upon Turkey and upon Bulgaria to procure the swift and certain extermination of the brigands, regardless of cost or effort. Tallka Not Arrested. The authorities at Constantinople deny that Rev. Mr. Tsilka, the husband of Miss Ellen Stone's companion 'till captivity, has been arrested for complicity in the kidnapping of the latter. They say that, according to last reports, Rev. Mr. Tsilka is in Sofia, Bulgaria. SPIT IN HIS SON'S FACE. South Carolina Repentant Makes South Carolina Representative Makes Unique Appeal For Protection There was a comedy enacted in the South Carolilla house of representatives Friday. A. C. Lyles, for ten years a member of the body, one of the original Tillman supporters, appealed to the house for protection. His voice trembled with emotion and his face was pale. "I ask the house, I beg you, gentlemen," he said, "to give me protection from the governor's son—Miles B. McSweeney, Jr." There was immediately the keenest interest. Every member turned, toward Mr. Lyles and the galleries became hushed. Representative Lyles drew toward him a boy of 14 and continued. "This is my boy, and on the floor of this house' the governor's son has spit on his face, not once only today, but repeatedly. This thing must stop. I beg protection from the son of the governor of South Carolina." Young McSweeney is about 16 and of a sportive disposition. It was reported that he ran away with a circus some time ago, but was brought back in a few days. The house authorized the speaker, to issue cards to visitors and exclude, the governor's son from the floor. BIG BATCH OF CONVICTS. Seventy-One' New Guseta Arrive at Federal Prison in Atlanta. Seventy-one United States prisoners were added to the inmates of the Atlanta, Ga., federal prison Friday afternoon. Twenty-six were from West Virginia and forty-five from Columbia Ohio. Notable among the convicts are two Georgia men, one from Atlanta, and one from Macon. The Atlanta man is W. L. Goodwin, sent in for nine years for counterfeiting. The Macon man is named Charles Clements, and is unique as being the sole remaining prisoner connected with the famous Forsyth case, when Captain John-C. Forsyth was killed. Clements is up for life under the charge of conspiracy. Five Indians from the Indian Territory, transferred on account of tuberculosis, formed a conspicuous part of the group. ENGLAND NEEDS MILLIONS. Nayal Estimates Compiled By Admiralty Calls for Emanous Sum. A London special says: The secretary of the admiralty, Arnold Forster, introduced the nayal estimates for 1992.08 in the house of common Friday. The estimates show a total of 31,355,000 pounds as compared with 30,275,000 pounds last year. Mr. Arnold Forster remarked that no thinking manages have anticipated any reduction from and without of last year. In view of the fact that the population engaged in a difficult conflict 1,000 miles away. SUBSCRIPTION RATES. One Year.....$1.55 Six Months.....75 Three Months.....75 Remittance, must be made by Express or Post Office Money Order, or Registered Letter. Advertising Rates given on application. SATURDAY MARCH 1, 1902 Miss Stone has been released at last. THE best should be made of every opportunity. THE "good time" Negro is a menace to the race. PRESIDENT Roosevelt is Ben Tillman's Waterloo. OUR aims should be high and our ambition in proportion. THE man who helps others is himself greatly benefitted. THIS nation has extended a hearty reception to Prince Henry. THE very best that is in every boy and girl should be cultivated. DISPEL selfish motives and live to help others as well as yourself. THE cause of education should never fall on ears that are deaf. As a people we can not afford to take the slightest step backward. Our small farmers should improve their property and borrow less money. THE experiences of to-day should the better fit us for nobler work to-morrow. ENDEAVOR to make others happy and you will solve one of the most difficult problems in life. LET us study the life and aims of the successful men around us and imitate their good qualities. INDIANA is making a record for race prejudice that is in keeping with certain southern states. To be something you must have something, you can't get something if you don't save your pennies. THE cause of so many youthful criminals can be traced to the need of more school facilities in this city. BECAUSE you have a little education is no reason why you should circumscribe that of your children. While land is so cheap in various parts of the state, our people should make purchases, if only a few acres. Our women are playing an important part in race advancement. In whatever that they are doing for good they should be encouraged. Those of us who are in a position to do so, should so act as to inspire our young men and women who are struggling to make their lives more successful. The smoking of cigarettes by small boys is deplorable. Dwarfs their brain and cause them to become wrecks. Parents look out for your boys in this respect. A NUMBER of our colored citizens own real comfortable and commodious homes in desirable sections of the city. This should be an incentive for others to do likewise. THE Maryland legislature has killed the "jim crow" car bill. This is done justly. Maryland by this act has regained some of our respect after disfranchising our people. It pays to be courteous at all times. This was demonstrated recently by the willing of a thousand dollars to a railway conductor, who had treated courteously one of his passengers. KENTUCKY has a candidate, for the Register of the Treasury, in the person of Hon. S. E. Smith. The present incumbent, Hon. Judson L. Lyons, of this state will succeed himself. THE Negro leader or presacher who continually talks on building up the race and fails to patronize those in business when he can receive the same goods as given by others, is a hypocrite of the deepest dye. The greatest need at present, of the colored citizen of Savannah is a suitable building in the southern part of this city for the accommodation of our children, and several more enterprises of a business character. The recent grand jury recommended, the establishing of a reformatory, for juvenile convicts. The TRIBUNE has, spoken often on this subject. It is one that should appeal to all thoughtful citizens and the recommendation of the grand jury carried out. The census of 1900 gives Savannah a Negro population of 28,135, a majority of 20,226 over the whites. In the county there are 13,174, a majority of 9,353 over the whites. In the entire county there are 11, 379 more Negroes than whites. These figures will startle many. To the thoughtful of the race it brings to bear that we are not keeping pace with our numbers, possibly it is because of our laxity of school accommodation in better preparing many of our youths for useful lives. The blame can not be placed there fully, because there are a number of us who have the intelligence to better our condition, but who are not sufficiently enterprising to do so. For instance, a large per cent. of our young men who are of proper age to vote, yet are too penurious and careless to pay a dollar a year poll tax, which will not only permit them to enjoy the full rights of citizenship, but will assist in the education of our children. Again, we are loath to admit that among our large number of citizens there are those having a number of children attending the public schools, but who neglects to pay a penny for tax. This class of citizens is a menace to the race and blocks every road to progress. And again from our population we have made a very poor showing in the commercial world. In this city alone there should be no less than a hundred colored men conducting first-class mercantile business, not counting the ones that should be engaged in smaller ones. In the county the proportion should be likewise. There should be a great awakening among our people along these lines. We will continue at the present rate if a move is not made in the right direction. The governor has relieved Inspector General Obear from active duty. This much is regretted by a large number of those in the service of the state. While they do not criticise the action of the commander-in-chief, yet they feel that Col. Obear has rendered valuable service to the state and should be actively retained. He has done much toward increasing the efficiency of the Negro troops and every officer thinks a great deal of him. Our people have been greatly discouraged soon after emancipation by the failure of the Freedman's bank and several other enterprises inaugurated by men who hadn't even the rudiments of business training. Because this is a fact is no reason why they should continue to feel discourage. Things now are not what they were then. Our men are more enlightened and many enterprises among them are conducted on the plans of business. TILLMAN of South Carolina showed himself to perfection last week when he disgraced the proceedings of the senate-by engaging in a fisticuff with Senator McLaurin. Tillman has always acted the bully part, and is the greatest black-guard in the national legislature. His action has met the severe condemnation of the nation, and if it was left to many he would be immediately expelled from the senate. You can not build up race enterprise with thousands of dollars in the savings banks drawing a paltry three per cent. per annum, when it can be safely invested in a business that will net you more and at the same time make an opening so that our boys and girls who are coming out of schools and colleges will be able to secure employment. IN asserting that Senator McLaurin was bribed for his vote on the treaty question, Senator Tillman has charged the late President McKinley as a briber. This should not be allowed to go by unnoticed. Tillman should be made to prove his charge, and if he is unable to do so, expelled from the senate. THE TRIBUNE may touch an unpopular chord, yet it can not keep from protesting against the use of church edifices for all kinds of entertainments. These edifices were dedicated for the service of God and should not be used for other purposes. When this is done, all respect for the sacredness of the place is lost. Comments on Col. Deveaux The sudden death of Major W. H. Smyth postmaster at Atlanta opens for scramble one of the best federal places in Georgia and gives the President two important positions in that state to fill. The other place is the collectorship of customs at Savannah. The chances now point to the renomination of J. H. Deveaux, colored, as collector. The only fight against Deveaux comes from the "lily white" republicans, headed by Major Hanson of Macon. The white republicans would like this for one of their number, but a peculiar and interesting fact is that the white democrats are not opposed to Deveaux, and indirectly are supporting him by saying nice things about him. The Georgia legislature recently paid Deveaux the unprecedented compliment, of electing him a colonel for life of the Georgia National Guard. This honor was never before on a colored man. Up to the time of this action, Deveaux was a major of militia and had encouraged the colored soldiers of the National Guard to do their full duty on every occasion. Deveaux was the principal power in suppressing several riots. With this record the President will be loath to turn down Deveaux on the demands of white republicans. It is stated that Deveaux has conducted his office without the slightest objection from the patrons of the Savannah office and has practically the solid backing of business men of that city—Washington [D.C.] Star. Can President Roosevelt fail to reappoint Colonel J. H. Deveaux as collector of customs at this port under present conditions and the high record he has made? Not if he has the party's interest for the future in heart. If a republican is to fill the place, then there is no better in the state. We feel assured that the president will not make any mistake in his appointment. The announcement is awaited patiently—Independent. "Col. J. H. Deveaux will be re-appointed collector of customs for the port of Sayannah. This statement was made yesterday by a gentleman recently returned from Washington, where he had an interview with the President. Politics and federal patronage were discussed, and the President said he did not see why he should not re-appoint. Col. Deveaux, as his service had been efficient. "Another Savannahian, the gentleman said, had called on President Roosevelt. His talk with the President was upon the collectorship, and he sought to show the President that Col. Deveaux should not be reappointed. Something like the following dialogue is reported to have occurred: "The present incumbent, Mr. President," said the Sayannahian, "should not be re-appointed." "Why?" asked the President. "Has his administration of the affairs of his office not been capable and efficient." "Yes, Mr. President," the gentleman is reported to have replied, "but he is unsatisfactory to the business men of the city. He cannot mix and mingle among them because he is a colored man. The collector of the port should be some one able to receive foreign visitors to the city, who are there upon commercial business, but the present incumbent cannot do so." "Hold right there sir," answered the President. "Only two or three days ago I saw a French gentleman who was just from Savannah. He told me that he had been most pleasantly received by Col. Deveaux. As collector of the port, Col. Deveaux has given such service and his recommendations are so strong that I cannot but re-appoint him."—Savannah Morning News. Among Our Exchanges. The calamity howler is to be shunned and dreaded wherever he is met in any sphere of life. He dispells happiness, destroys hopes and paralyzes energies. He brings a thick pall of darkness to all he meets, and would have all believe there is no sun. If allowed to move unchecked he would soon have all men brooding, meeting troubles over half way before troubles have started their way. Put the calamity howler on the run every time he seeks to approach. He will make you miserable over imaginaryills and unfit for happinesss when it comes—Prof. W. I. Lewis, in the "colored column" of the Jacksonville Metropolis. What is the matter with Major R.R. Wright, L. L. D.? Has he gone back into politics? Some time ago, say about the end of last century, it was proclaimed aloud at Augusta, Ga., that he was out of the business, and advised our sons to let politics alone. His name is in the daily papers as being a candidate for office. Is it true? If true, does not the major do himself and friends a wrong by not retracting the former declaration and advice to his race? An explanation would be appreciated by many. MASONIC COLUMN The following communication was received from Grand Master Johnson of South Carolina: "To all grand officers present and past of the Ancient and Honorable Fraternity of Free Masons, wherever dispersed. Wisdom, strength, beauty; Brethren: "We take pleasure in informing you that the Most Worshipful Gand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the state of South Carolina cordially invites you to be present and take part in a grand international Masonic congress to be held in Charleston, S. C., on the 7th and 8th of April, A. D., 1902. We believe that much good may be done for the cause of true Masonry, both in establishing before the world the actual facts and figures proving the regularity and legitimacy of the Masonry practiced by the recognized Grand Lodges among colored Masons in this country and Canada, and also in recommending and adressing the wise course in showing our disapproval of all fake and bogus organizations falsely claiming to be Masonic and peddling out so-called degrees whether these hucksters claim to represent an alleged national compact, the higher degree department or some other similarly fraudulent organization. Keep in mind the W. and O. H. One third of the Lodges have not reported the new officers. The peddlers of the bogus higher degrees should be sat upon. No intelligent person should allow himself to be duped by the bogus "York Rites." They should be crushed out. If is expected that the charter for the Masonic Building Association will be granted by the Superior Court of this County next week. The meeting of the Grand Lodge is only four months off. In that time let every officer of the lodges bend all of his energy to make a glowing report. Brother Frederick S. Monroe of Massachusetts, has an interesting article in the National Leader of last week on "Who Shall Preside." Bro. Monroe contends that in 'event of the death or absence of the W. M. the S. W. should have full charge of the Lodge barring the P. Ms. The interest among the ladies for the Order of the Eastern Star is increasing. A number of new Chapters have been formed and several more are being organized. Savannah has a Chapter with a large membership and it is quite progressive. Steps are being taken to organize a new one. This is in the right direction. With the number of ladies who are masonically related, Savannah should have no less than three chapters. The ladies that are working up the new Chapter should be encouraged and commended for doing so. It is hoped that the required number will soon be secured and the organization perfected. Left For Their Homes. The beautiful and talented Miss Graham of Connecticut and the petite and witty Miss Pease of Massachusetts left on Wednesday last by steamer Alleghany for Philadelphia. After remaining there a few days they will go to Newark N. J., from there to New York city a week or two and from thence to respective homes. The Misses Graham and Pease leave a host of friends behind who would be glad to have them return and remain with them permanently. The false impressions of the south which had been so instilled into them in their northern homes have been completely extirpated, and they leave with nothing but the most pleasant recollections of the Sunny South and our proud, beautiful and historical Savannah. Mrs. Milledge on East Gaston street at whose pleasant home they have been so comfortably domiciled and Dr. Whaley their host, assure us that in as much as they have partaken of our Forest City park water that they will return again.

Church Sunday night the 23, 1st., and were most cordially received by the pastor and members. We listened to a very instructive and interesting sermon by Rev. Cargile, and by which every one was benefited. After the regular official work by the officers the congregation was turned over to the doctors and they had ample time and opportunity to state their case. Dr. Tyson spoke at length of different necessities of the hospital, introducing Dr. Davis who, after which went in to the details of the institution and made a forceful talk in its behalf which with all was very convincing, judging from the way the people so liberally responded. In a short while they contributed to the amount of $11.20, making the best collection received for us by any church so far. We are indeed very grateful for, these demonstrations of interest shown by the general public. The work is undoubtedly on the upward march and every body is falling in line. The Charity Circle gave an entertainment for the hospital at the Beach Institute Thursday night, the proceeds of which will go towards fitting up the bed rooms for the hospital which is so badly needed. We are now planning for a big day for the carpenters, and we wish all carpenters will take notice, that we will soon call on them for a helping hand.

The ladies will furnish a nice dinner for the carpenters and we expect a good time. The date will be named later. We will visit Rev. Griffin's church the first Sunday in March. First A. B. Church.

The program was the best recently heard. The choruses were grand especially when it is considered that the participants had less than six practices. The solos by Mrs. Sarah Cashin Brown, Mrs. Florence H. Robinson, and Miss Nettie A. Houston, were hearty applauded especially the duet by the two latter ones, Mrs. A. E. Robiuson rendered one of her fine solos. The recitation by Miss Houstoun was also very good. Misses Baldwin and Hunter in the last duet did well. Mr. E. J. Robinson rendered a mandolin solo. Prof. J. Baneker Adger of Philadelphia had charge of the choruses. The entire program was so excellently rendered that many who heard it feel that it should be repeated at an early date.

Spiritualism Declining. It has been the general observation that for some years past spiritualism has been an aphoristic thing is the law with everything that is not founded on true merit. The reason Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has been recognized as the leading medical medicine during the past fifty years is because it is founded on true merit, and has always been found reliable in cases of indigestion, dyspepsia, constipation and billiousness.

Was Sick' Eight Years with Female Trouble and Finally Cured by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. "DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—I have never in my life given a testimonial before, but you have done so much for me that I feel called upon to give you this unsolicited acknowledgement of MRS. JENIE E. O'DONNELL. President of Oakland Woman's Riding Club, the wonderful curative value of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. For eight years I had female trouble, falling of the womb and other complications. During that time I was more or less of an invalid and not much good for anything, until one day I found a book in my hall telling of the cures you could perform. I became interested; I bought a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and was helped; I continued its use and in seven months was cured, and since that time I have had perfect health. Thanks, dear Mrs. Pinkham again, for the health I now enjoy."—MRS. JENNIE O'DONNELL, 278 East 31st St., Chicago, Ill. — $2000 forselt if above testimonial is not genuine.

Thompson's Eye Water Scrap Caused Greatest Excitement Among Stald Solons—Belligerents Are Adjudged in Contempt By Vote of the Body. A Washington special says: The Tillman-McLaurin feud reached the most sensational possible climax in the United States senate Saturday afternoon when McLaurin passed the lie to his colleague and Tillman; quick as a flash, jumped over intervening ehairs and struck McLaurin a stinging blow with his fist. There was a rapid exchange of blows at short range, the two men clinched, and senators rushed toward the combatants from every quarter. Senate employees joined the melee and during two or three minutes there was one of the most disgraceful scenes ever enacted in any legislative body. It all started over Tillman's bitter attack upon the republicans in his speech on the Phillippines. He charged that the republicans had only been able to ratify the peace treaty be securing the vote of a senator through improper influences. This led to a heated colloquy between Tillman and Spooner, the upshot of it being the charge that McLaurin had, through the potency of patronage, been won over by the republicans. McLaurin Gives the Lie. Here the matter dropped and Tillman went on with his argument. In the meantime, somebody sent for McLaurin. He was much excited when he entered the chamber, but he waited until Tillman finished. Then he secured recognition. "I desire to rise to a question of personal privilege," said he. "During my absence a few minutes ago from the senate chamber in attendance upon the committee on Indian affairs, the gentleman who has just taken his seat—the senator who has just taken his seat—said that improper means had been used in changing the vote of somebody on the treaty, and then went on later and said that it applied to the senator from South Carolina, who had been given the patronage in that state. I think I got the sense of the controversy. I desire to state, Mr. President, I would not use as strong language as I intended to do, had I not, soon after the senate met repiled to these insinuations, and said they were untrue. I now say that statement is a wilful, malicious, deliberate lie." McLaurin's seat is on the same row with Tillman's; there are three desks between them. Senator Teller sat in the middle. Before he could realize what had happened, Tillman jumped over him, had struck McLaurin and they had clinched. Of course neither man suffered physical injuries in the personal encounter. Must Remain Silent. In the meantime the status of senators Tillman and McLaurin is that they are in contempt of the senate, and only by a vote of the senate can either be recognized either to speak or to vote on any question whatever. The senate adopted a resolution declaring both Tillman and McLaurin in contempt. By a vote in executive session both were allowed to make statements, in which both apologized for their actions. But the senate took no further action, and the resolution referring the matter to the committee on privileges and elections is still in operation and, until the committee is discharged or the senate relieves the South Carolina senators of the contempt, they must remain silent in the senate. This is the judgment of all senators who have considered the question, and the presiding officer, it is said, will refuse to recognize their right to participate in the proceedings until the order of contempt is vacated.

A MOST WONDERFUL COUNTRY. Said to be the Greatest Farming Land on Earth. A Beautiful Townsite Is One Selected for Fitzgerald, Oklahoma. Fitzgerald, O. T., Jan. 27, 1902. Messrs. Perry & Dowden, Oklahoma. City, O. T. Gentlemen: We take pleasure in stating that we took stock in the lands and city lots opened up in the Old Fort Supply Reservation' in Woodward County by the Fitzgerald Land Co., at Oklahoma City on Jan. 23, and were present and witnessed the drawing that took place at that time. We found the drawing was conducted absolutely on the square. After the drawing we visited the new town of Fitzgerald and also inspected the lands that were drawn. We found the town on the most beautiful rise of ground, overlooking the two rivers, with perfect drainage. The country tributary is well adapted to the various crops—wheat, oats, kaffir corn, corn, breadcorn, castor beans, and the bottom lands and valleys will produce good Indian corn, and the finest alfalfa. Wheat and fruit of every kind will grow to perfection. There is a wide range of country from which to draw support for the town. We found many people arranging to engage in business in Fitzgerald. We found that the purest and most abundant soft water that will prove of wonderful benefit to all and especially those who may suffer from kidney or bladder troubles. We feel confident that the town is destined to be one of the finest health resorts in the United States. We found our lands all satisfactory, and also all the land that was put in the drawing. Taking everything into consideration, we found the situation even better than we had expected, and believe that those who have dealings with the Fitzgerald Land Company will receive fair and honest treatment throughout. There is not a man in our party who would take back his money for what he drew, in either lots or lands. Respectfully. B. M. Davison, Marshall, Ill. C. L. Burnside, Dolson, Ill.

Ford, London correspondent of the New York Tribune, writes in the Century of "Electric Transit in London and Paris." Of the chief Paris line he says: The Metropolitan Railway, in equipment, methods of construction, and financial arrangements, is essentially a French enterprise. The three groups of generators, one supplying the electric current of six hundred volts, and the other two a tension of five thousand volts, will represent when completed the mechanical genius of Creusot; and the rolling-stock will also be of French manufacture. The chief engineer M. Blenvenue, has conducted with exceptional skill the process of driving a tunnel at slight depth through thoroughfares where sewers, water malns, gas piping, and circuits of wires were embedded. As many as five thousand workmen have been employed, and immense quantities of excavated material have been removed by subterranean galleries to the Seins with little interference to street traffic. The chalky subsolit was easily worked, but the infiltration of water was often a hindrance, and there were several collapses of tunnels from heavy rains and improper setting of cement. The resources of French engineering were equal to every emergency, and with the experience gained in the real utility of shields, etc., the work will be completed with increased facility. NO UPRISING THERE. Elderly Gent (clinging to strap)—There are a good many conditions affecting our governmental system today that are very oppressive and their continuance may some day lead to a popular uprising. Lady (also on the standing committee)—Perhaps, but—(with withering glances at male occupants of the seats)—you would never look for it-to begin in a street car—Richmond Dispatch. CONSISTENT.

"It all depends," answered Mr. Sirius Barker, as he unwound a muffer from his neck; "In summer I prefer winter and in winter I prefer summer."—Washington Star. TAUGHT TOO LATE. Kwoter—Well, there's no doubt of it. "Experience is a great teacher." Wisdom—Perhaps, but by the time experience comes to us, we're too old to learn the things we thought we knew in our youth. HOLOCAUST IN HOTEL Fifty Lives Reported Lost In Big Fire In New York. ARMORY AND HOSTELRY GUTTED Fire that broke out early Friday morning in the armory of the Seventy-first regiment, New York national guard, at Park avenue, Thirty-third and Thirty-fourth streets, New York city, spread to the Park avenue hotel, and over a score lives were lost, while the damage is roughly estimated at over $1,000,000. One woman, a guest the hotel, jumped from the fifth story and is believed to be fatally injured. Four bodies had been taken out up to 3:30 Saturday morning, but the only one so far identified is said to be that of Colonel Pepper, of Louisville, Ky. The Park Avenue hotel will, it is believed, be a total loss. The Seventy-first regiment armory, a magnificent granite structure and one of the finest in the city, was destroyed. The car barns of the Metropolitan street railway, on an adjoining corner, were threatened with destruction, but the good work of the firemen succeeded in saving them. The armory occupied an entire block and was occupied also by the Second battery and the First signal corps. The fire was discovered burning from a window of the armory on the Thirty-fourth street side and, by the time the firemen arrived the flames had completely enveloped the building and appeared through the roof. Shortly after, the cartridges and ammunition exploded. Shortly after 2 o'clock a thousand pounds of powder in the cellar exploded and the walls of the building were thrown outward. By this time the people living in the neighborhood had been driven from their homes by the heat. The guests of the Park avenue hotel, numbering about six hundred, were aroused as quickly as possible, but not without panic among the women and children. Firemen poured eleven streams upon the side of the hotel nearest the armory, but in spite of this the third floor caught fire and the flames eating along the walls of the hotel spread to the roof. The firemen ran ladders up on every side and were driven back by the dense volumes of smoke again and again. A little after 3 o'clock the four upper floors of the hotel were a mass of flames and the fire was spreading rapidly down through the structure. It was then apparent that the hotel was doomed. Notwithstanding the fact that everybody in the hotel had ample time to get out, a large number of women were carried down the ladders by firemen, until it was thought everybody had been taken out. Just at this time a woman in her night clothes appeared at a window in the fifth floor and before warning could reach her flung herself headlong to a portico over the main entrance. It is believed that she will die. Two bodies were found on the fifth floor by the firemen and two more in another part of the building. At 4 o'clock Saturday morning Fire Chief Croker announced that he believed there were fifty dead in the corridors and stairways of the Park Avenue hotel. KENTUCKY OUTLAW COMES IN.

A severe sleet storm struck Washington Friday and for a time the national capital was absolutely cut off from all telegraphic or telephone communication north of Baltimore, and is compelled to depend on uncertain wires to Richmond and Atlanta for reaching the country at large. Aside from damage to wires, however, the storm did no injury, the sleet not being heavy enough to do much harm to trees. BATTLE WITH DESPERADOES.
