GONGRESS AT WORK Flfty-Ninth Session Formally Convened at Washington. BOTH BODIES ORGANIZED House Called to Order by Clerk McDowell—Senate Adjourns Out of Respect to Memory of Senator Platt. The first session of the 59th congress convened in Washington Monday at noon. Vice President Fairbanks called the senate to order, while the house was called to order by Clerk McDowell. This session has been looked forward to as one likely to be more than ordinarily interesting. The matters to be urged on the attention of congress include the questions of protecting the interests of the policyholders of insurance companies, statehood for the remaining territories, Panama canal construction, immigration and the treatment of the Chinese under the present exclusion law, raising revenue against a possible deficit, control of corporations engaged in interstate business, corrupt use of money at elections, the Philippines, Santo Domingo and other western republics, tariff questions, as well as the usual diversified subjects which the various executive departments annually present to be reviewed by congress. Regular attendants missed the usual mountains of flowers which are usually sent to members. A year ago a resolution was adopted prohibiting the bringing of flowers into the senate chamber, and the rule has had the effect also of stopping the sending of such testimonials to the house. IN THE SENATE. It was a familiar scene when Vice President Fairbanks called the senate to order. There were a few changes in the membership. Death has taken away Senators Bate of Tennessee, and Platt of Connecticut. There were no changes among the senate officials. The hum of voices ceased when the vice president pounded and Chapain Edward Eyerett Hale made the invocation. Sixty-eight voices responded to the roll call, and the vice president anounced that the senate was ready to transact business. Senators, Knox and Aldrich, who have recently been elected to new terms, took the oath of office. Senator Stone presented the credentials of Senator-elect Warner of Missouri and Senator Gorman, in the absence of Senator Carmack, presented the credentials of Senator-elect Frazier of Tennessee and the new members were sworn in. The credentials of Senator Tallafroro of Florida were presented by Senator Mallory. Senators Ellison and Morgan were appointed as a committee to wait on the president, together with a similar committee from the house. The secretary was instructed to inform the house of representatives that the senate was organized. Governor Bulkley then notified the senate officially of the death of Senator Platt of Connecticut. Resolutions in memory of the late senator were adopted after which the senate adjourned as a further mark of respect. IN THE HOUSE For an hour preceding the opening there were scenes of increasing animation on the floor and in the galleries of the house of representatives. Exactly at noon Clerk McDowell called the body to order, standing in his place directly in front of the speaker's chair, which was vacant. Declaring the house "in order," he announced prayer by the chaplain, Rev. Dr. Henry N. Couden. The invocation comprehended a review of the peaceful and prosperous condition of the nation, a plea for patriotic and wise legislation and concluded with the "Lord's Prayer." A roll call by states to show the presence of a quorum was at once begun. At the conclusion of the roll call Clerk McDowell announced 264 members present. Speaker Cannon was placed in nomination for speaker by Mr. Hepburn of Iowa. Mr. Williams of Mississippi was nominated on behalf of the minority by Mr. Henry of Texas. Neither made nominating speeches and the roll call for election of speaker at once proceeded. Both were unanimously reelected. EIGHTEEN MINERS DIE. Entombed Under Tons of Earth by Frightful Gas Explosion in Coal Pit. Eighteen miners lost their lives in an explosion late Friday night, in the Diamond Coal and Coke company's mine No.1 at Diamondville, Wyo. It is believed that all the men who perished were instantly killed. The theory advanced by the miners is that a "blow-out" shot caused the disastrous explosion which wrecked the mine. The shock of the explosion was felt all over the town, rocking buildings so violently that their occupants ran out into the open. It was Saturday afternoon before the first rescue parties entered the mine. The explosion occurred 1,100 feet underground, and at least 2,000 feet from the mouth of the shaft. JAMISON CASE AGAIN. Judge Speer Orders Negro Out of Custody of County Authorities. tory or County Auditories. Claiming that he has exhausted every remedy in the state courts to se cure his liberty from Bibb county, Georgia, chalangang, Henry Jamison, the negro prisoner made famous by his fight on the Macon recorder's court, applied for and received from Judge Speer another writ of habeas corpus, and in consequence discards the stripes and shackles of the Bibb gang for the custody of the United States marshal. An order was served on Superintendent Wimbish at Macon Saturday afternoon requiring him to turn Jamison over to the United States authorities. The petition was presented to Judge Speer by Attorneys Akerman & Akerman and they alleged that when Jamison had filed his bill of exceptions to Judge Felton's ruling sending the negro back to the gang without bond, he had exhausted every remedy in the state courts and was now being illegally deprived of his liberty. Just whether or not Jamison will be discharged from custody by Judge Speer will be determined at the hearing which is ordered to take place in Valdosta on December 11. The petition alleged that Jamison was rearrested by the Macon police, without authority or warrant, before the mandate of the United States court was fled and for that reason he should not have been arrested. In the order returning Jamison from the chalanging Judge Speer says that the negro is without remedy in the state court, is denied the ancient and constitutional right of ball, and is actually undergoing an alleged illegal sentence. Judge Speer, to prevent the Macon police or the Bibb county officials from again interfering with Jamison, orders that in case any official, state or county, arrests or solzes Jamison, that such official shall be taken into custody by the United States marshal and arraigned before the federal court. City Attorney Wimberly will appear at Valdao when the case is heard and will fight it out for the city. He said it was his opinion that Judge Speer would hear the case immediately and give a decision remanding Jamison back to the chaining. Rawlings Prefers Execution of His Sons Milton and Jesse. J. G. Rawlings, sentenced with two sons, Milton and Jesse, to hang at Valdosta, Ga., on January 6 for the murder of the Carter children, declares he prefers the execution of his boys to the commutation of their sentence to life imprisonment. When he made this statement, Milton, who occupies a cell with his father, promptly spoke up and said he did not prefer death, but wanted the governor to commute his sentence so that in time he could establish the innocence of both himself and Jesse as well as Leonard. MORE. OREGON LAND FRAUDS. School Landa-Are Sold Through Bogus Certificates. Far more serious than any previous development of the many land frauds perpetrated in Oregon are charges made in a letter to Governor George Chamberlain by State Agent Oswald West, who asserts that by means of forged certificates of sale of school lands eastern bankers have been swindled out of large sums of money. Mr. West stated that the forged certificates are so well executed that it is difficult to distinguish them from the originals. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. DECEMBER 9. 1905 CANAL CASH: SURE Appropriation to Have Clear Road in Congress. NEED SIXTEEN MILLIONS A Summary of Second Day's Sessions of House and Senate—President's Message the Principal President Roosevelt's message to congress Tuesday received the attention of the house for two and a half strenuous hours. Its reading was listened to with marked attention, and at the conclusion the document was applauded. Preliminary steps were taken toward appropriating the needed emergency funds for the Panama canal, and this legislation was scheduled for Wednesday. Should unanimous consent be refused for its consideration, a special rule from the committee on rules will be available, which will put the bill on its passage after a limited period for discussion. The house received and ordered referred to one of the regular election committees, a protest from the fifth congressional district of Illinois stating that Anthony Michalek, who was sworn in Monday as a member of the house from the district, is not a citizen of the United States. On motion of Mr. Goldfogle of New York, a resolution was read expressing the sympathy of the American people for the distressed Russian Jews and asking the president to use his friendly offices with the Russian government to prevent the recurrence of the outrages. The resolution was ordered printed in the Record and referred to the committee on foreign affairs. Representatives Humphreys of Mississippi, and Claud Kitchen of North Carolina took the oath of office. Mr. Hepburn of Iowa was recognized to ask unanimous consent for the consideration Wednesday of the bill making an appropriation of $16,500,000 for work on the Panama canal. Upon the statement of Mr. Williams of Mississippi that he would object, but might not Wednesday, it was agreed that the request should be made Wednesday... The house adjourned as a mark of respect to the late Representative Pinckney of Texas. The senate was in session for almost three hours Tuesday, and gave practically all of its time to listening to the reading of the president's message. There was a large attendance of senators and the galleries were well filled, most of the time with representatives of the general public. The document received close attention from both sides, many senators following the reading from beginning to end with printed copies in their hands. DECISION AGAINST PLUMBERS, Injunction Case in Atlanta is in Favor of the Plaintiff. The Master Plumbers' Association of Atlanta has been permanently enjoined by Judge Pendleton from interfering with the business of M. C. Vandiver, who, about a year ago, brought suit, alleging that he was about to be driven out of business by the association. Vandiver charged that the local association of master plumbers is a branch of a national association which has by laws in restraint of trade. He alleges that, unless a master plumber was a member of the organization he could not purchase supplies anywhere in the United States. For the Open Shop in Washington, The Washington, D. C., typotetheae members have posted notices in all their shops containing the announcement that after January 1, 1906, their business would be conducted as "open shops." MISSILE THROUGH CAR WINDOW Of Special Train on Which President Was Travelling. Some unknown person hurled a heavy iron plumb bob through a window of one of the cars on President Roosevelt's special train Saturday night on the run from Princeton to Washington. No one was hurt. The Pennsylvania railroad officials and the Philadelphia police authorities have united in a determined effort to break up the practice of throwing missiles at trains, and a thorough investigation is in progress. MILL MEN-DISPLEASED: Cotton Manufacturers at Fall River, Mass., Resent Action of Growers In Holding Up the Staple. The cotton manufacturers in Fall River, Mass., expressed themselves as greatly dissatisfied with the government's system of issuing cotton reports, and some of them are asking that action be taken by the manufacturers of New England looking toward its abolishment. It was pointed out that one of the largest firms of cotton brokers in the country, with headquarters at Philadelphia, has been asking its customers to sign petitions to the government, looking toward the same end. One of the mill officials said, in an interview, Tuesday: "The immediate effect of the report in this manufacturing center has been to reduce the wage margin 6 per cent to stifle the demand for cloth, and to upset the calculations of mill men who have been trying to buy cotton from southern planters at some fixed price. "Telegrams received from the south show that planters are relying on the accuracy of the government report to such an extent that they will not offer their product below the speculative figures fixed on the New York exchange, and in most instances they say that they do not care to accept orders at the top prices for the present at least." It is understood that the manufacturers object to the publication of incomplete reports based upon estimates. Name of Well Known Georgian Sent to Senate by President. A Washington dispatch says: As predicted last spring, ex-Congressman Carter Tate of Georgia has been appointed United States attorney for the northern district of Georgia. His nomination was sent by the president to the senate for confirmation Tuesday morning, and it is understood that there will be no opposition. Walter H. Johnson is re-appointed United States marshal for the northern district of Georgia. Mr. Tate's appointment created little surprise for the announcement at the time the appointment was determined upon was read all over the country and the sensation caused then by the president turning out a republican to put in a democrat has had time to subside. Mr. Tate was selected for the place on account of his fine record in congress, the president acting upon the theory that good men should not be lost to the public service when their constituents retire them from congress. It is understood the change in the district attorney's office at Atlanta will be made at once. Colonel Angier's term having already expired. MARK TWAIN CELEBRATES. Noted Humorist Dined in Honor of His Seventieth Birthday. Tuesday-night Mark Twain was the guest of honor at a dinner at Delmonico's, New York, given by Colonel George Harvey, in honor of the humorist's seventieth birthday. The guests were confined closely to writers of imaginative literature, and about 150 authors were present, nearly half of them women. During the dinner a congratulatory cable message was received from England signed by forty of the most distinguished writers there. President Roosevelt sent a congratulatory letter. The principal souvenir which each guest received was a bust of Mark Twain, half life size. First Frost In New Orleans. Tuesday New Orleans had a killing frost, the first of the season, with a temperature of 32.8 degrees. The temperature has been lower than this before December 5 but twice in 35 years. MILITARY IS CALLED OFF. Martial Law in Poland is Abolished by Authorities. A Warsaw special says: The abolition of the minor state martial law was gazetted Tuesday and Poland is now completely freed from military rule. The authorities have prohibited a proposed meeting of the striking post and telegraph employees. The disorganization of business can be judged from the fact that while before the strike the Warsaw office handled 22,000 telegrams daily the office now handles only 1,500. BOOST IN COTTON Follows Crop Report Issued at Washington Monday. JORDAM SAVES THE DAY His Protest Against Proposed New Methods of Making Estimates Was Successful-Millions Saved The cotton crop bulletin issued on Monday by the department of agriculture at Washington estimates the total yield at 10,167,818 bales of 500 pounds gross weight, not including linters. The area picked and to be picked is estimated at 26,117,153 acres, a reduction of 882,399 acres, or 3.3 per cent reduction from the acreage estimated as planted. It was officially announced that the delay in the issuance of the report was caused by a wide divergence in reports of yield per acre, which caused prolonged discussion. Southern congressmen who were at the department at the time are strongly of the opinion that the prolonged discussion was over another matter, that is whether the estimate should go out in bales of 500 pounds or 475 pounds. Harvie Jordan, president of the Southern Cotton Association, who was on hand, is given credit for bringing about the final decision, which is in favor of the 500 pound bales which have been the standard in the past. Mr. Jordan reached the city early in the day. He went at once to the department of agriculture bearing with him a telegram said to have been signed by Assistant Secretary W. M. Hays, chairman of the crop reporting board, sent to some south erner, in which it was stated that in making its December estimate, the department would use the basis of 475 pounds to the bale. Mr. Jordan protested to Secretary Wilson against such innovation, contending that its inevitable result would be to bring an estimate over and above what is right and would, in consequence, have a tendency to bear the market to the injury of the cotton growers. Inasmuch as the estimates in past years have been made upon the 500 pounds basis Secretary Wilson finally agreed with Mr. Jordan. There was considerable nervousness on the New York cotton exchange in anticipation of the report. Prices fluctuated and early showed advances. When the message from Washington postponing the report to a later hour was read, there was a moment of silence, followed by roars of laughter. March eased off to 11.54, or 22 points down from the high point of the morning. Later most of the losses were recovered, but the undertone of the market was very feverish. The first sale following the announcement of the government's figures was made at 25 points, or 1-4c a pound, higher than the price just before the announcement. The market advanced rapidly after the report, March selling at 12:25 within a few minutes after the figures were known. This was an advance of 76 points, or 3-4 per pound, since Saturday's close. The total number of pounds produced in the year 1905-06 will amount to 4,860,217,358, not including linters. The report of the National Ginners' Association on this year's cotton crop was made public at Dallas, Texas, at noon. The repbrt gives 9,623,000 bales as the season's yield. President J. A. Taylor issued a statement saying that the crop report has been practically completed. and he has allowed 2 per cent for an underestimate. Application of Alleged Murderer of George Wright Turned Down. In chambers at Rome, Ga. Tuesday, Judge Moses Wright refused bail to Vincent T. Sanford in jail charged with the murder of George Wright. Sanford had made application for bail on the ground that the jail was unsanitary and injurious to his health. In refusing the application, Judge Wright stated that he would change Sanford from the Rome jail to either Atlanta or Summerville, if he or his counsel should make application for THE BOSTON MAN. "You were employed by Mrs. Swellman, you say," said the housekeeper. "That was your last place... wasn't it?" "I assuredly do not," replied the Boston servant; maid; "I expect to get another. If however, you really meant to inquire if my late son was with Mrs. Swellman, my reply, be in the affirmative."—Philadelphia Public Ledger. There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For a great many years there were local remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable. Science has proven Catarrh to be a constitutional disease and therefore requires constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh is incurable. Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the market. It is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It affects directly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hundred and four hundred and testimonials.

Take Hall's Family Pills for constipations Bolled Timber; A new process has been discovered for warring against white ants, impests of the tropical regions. These termites—as they are called—destroy the woodwork of the finest buildings within six months. Their action is insidious, inaxmuch as the outward appearance of the wood does not betray the rottenness within, and their ravages, if not discovered in time, lead to the total collapse of buildings. Sometimes ago it was suggested that experiments should be carried out by the Powell Wood Process Syndicate, Ltd., Fleet street, E. C. Specimens were prepared and sent out to a number of tropical countries. After a somewhat protracted trial, news has been received from the Madras presidency that the specimens sent there have successfully resisted the attacks of the white ants. The process improves, toughens, and strengthens the wood. This is accomplished by bolting the timber in saccharine solutions and afterwards drying it at a high temperature. A revolution in the ar A Horseback Ride of 800 Miles The most wonderful straightaway rider ever made by a man was the gallop of Francis Xavier Aubrey—ad- vant Canadian voyeur, and a famous pony express rider—from Santa Fe, N. M., to Independence, Mo., in 1853—800 miles in five days, thirteen hours. In 1852 he had covered the same distance in a little over eight days, and his record was on the wager of $1000 that he "could do it in an even eight." In the whole distance he did not stop to rest and changed horses short of every 100 or 200 miles. He was a stocky French Canadian, lighthearted, genial, adventurous, absolutely fearless. For some time he was an overland freighter, and he also made the enormously difficult and dangerous drive of a stock of sheep from New Mexico to California, across the deserts of the Colorado. He was killed in Santa Fe—McClure's Magazine. The United States leads all nations in the use of tobacco. Is this because American nerves need more sedatives than others, or are the nerves the result of tobacco? THE "COFFEE HEART." It is as Dangerous as the Tobacco or Whisky Heart. "Coffee heart" is common to many coffee users and is liable to send the owner to his or her long home if the drug is persisted in. You can run thirty or forty yards and find out if your heart is troubled. A lady who was once a victim of the "coffee heart" writes from Oregon: "I have been a habitual user of coffee all my life and have suffered very much in recent years from alliments which I became satisfied were directly due to the poison in the beverage, such as torpid liver, and indigestion, which in turn made my complexion biotchy and muddy. "Then my heart became affected. It would beat most rapidly just after I drank my coffee, and go below normal as the coffee effect wore off. Sometimes my pulse would go as high as 137 beats to the minute. My family were greatly alarmed at my condition, and at last mother persuaded me to begin the use of Postum Food coffee. "I gave up the old coffee satrelly and absolutely, and made Postum my sole table beverage. This was six months ago, and all my illa, the indisputible inactive liver and rickety heart action have passed away, and my complexion has become clear and natural. The improvement set in very soon after. I made the change, just as soon as the coffee poison had time to work out of my system. "My husband has also been greatly benefited by the use of Postum, and we find that it simple breakfast with Postum is as satisfying and more strengthening than the old bourbon meal we used to have with the kind of coffee."

Our young men must not forget to qualify to become registered voters. The one hundredth birth-day of William Lloyd Garrison, the great abolitionist, will be observed to-morrow. It will be celebrated in various parts of the country by loyal colored men and women. This is as it should be, for this great man has done as much, if not more than any individual in the spreading of sentiment against slavery, and has suffered more for his convictions along this line than any one else. It is very befitting that his memory should be kept green and his deeds recited, and instilled into our children. In this city at this writing we have not been informed of but one observance of his birth-day, that will be held by the First Congregational Church at its evening service. It is hoped that the citizens will show their appreciation by attending. Masonic Notes. This is the month of election and installation Each Lodge must have election and installation on or before the 27th of December. Returns of election are already being sent the Grand Secretary. Fault is to be found with the very first one sent, in that the post office addresses of the W. M. and secretary were not given. The Lodges have been urged so often to forward this information so that the Grand Secretary can easily keep in touch with all concerned. The Grand Secretary knows the locality of every Lodge in the jurisdiction, but in many case the post office address of the W. M. and the secretary are not the same as that of the Lodge and when these officers' addresses are not given, communications are sent to the post office where the Lodge is located and very often they are not delivered. It is an easy matter for the officers to forward the addresses with the reports. Several of the Lodges are arranging to appropriately celebrate St John's Day on Dec. 22. Butler Lodge, at Butler, Ga. is one of the new Lodges. The brethren have shown their Ma sonic zeal by erecting a two story edifice. It has a prosperous membership. Let all the Lodges own a hall. The Grand Lodge of South Carolina meets next Tuesday at Beaufort. The local committee has arranged to give the delegates royal treatment. The greetings of our jurisdiction are extended them. Bro.

"Nuf-Sed's" Letter. Dear Mr Editor; I believe it is the best policy (along with honesty) to fulfil your promises. One of the main defects to-day in our daily affairs is the care less way we have of making promises which we do not carry out I have an acquaintance who promised to meet me at a certain bank on a certain day at 1:30 p.m I waited and waited, and as 2 p.m. came I started down the street walked about four blocks, when all at once my acquaintance almost breathless rushed around the corner. But the bank had now closed, an hour of my time was, wasted and an engagement was broken; simply because this fellow was behind the time. I have watched this fellow on seeral occasions and he seems to travel the same old road. Mr. Editor, as I believe in going to church on Sundays—and I hope all the reader of THE TRIBUNE are church goers—I went to church last Sunday when the services were almost over, whom did I see coming in but this same old fellow. I am a great admirer of the Sunday Club which I frequently attend. It was while sitting at the Club last Sunday toward the close of the program when I noticed this same old fellow coming in. I am told that on several occasions he has been left by trains, excursions, rides, etc., and worst of all that the people have become acquainted with him so well until he is having a hard time to keep a job. They tell me that as a boy he used to go to School, Sunday School, and church behind the time, and it is natural for him to be this way now. I am told that he has very many sisters and brothers who are very much like he, always behind the times. I warn all the readers of THE TRIGUNE to shun him because he has lost so many golden opportunities for improvement; he has been the cause of so many failures in business and professional lines; he is a very near relative to Messrs Mistrust, Unreliability, Lack O' Confidence, and many other characters of low pedigree. Gentle readers, never be Be Hind Detymes. I had occasion to transact a little business in a certain office where as I entered I heard a bigmouthed fellow speaking as follows: "If we want to rise in this world we must stick together, support each other, pay our taxes, patronize Negro business enterprises, acquire land, build good homes, take an interest in all that concern our people, in short, we must uplift the race." As I was not sure whether I had met him before, I asked someone what was his name He told me that the person speaking was Mr B. Nutin Butair. After talking with and congratulating him on his sound advice, NUF-SED thought he had better put in his little speech at this juncture, so he began as follows? "Mr. Nutin Butair, have you visited any of our Colored Drug Store or Dry Goods Store? Have you visited any of our other business enterprises such as restaurants, banks loan offices, grocery stores, etc? Have you attended the Sunday Club or any of the lectures?" Mr B. Nutin Butair then said, "I'll tell you I haven't bought or invested anything in any of the business enterprises zes which you have enumerated nor have I attended any of the lectures or Sunday Club meetings but I tell you we as a race are certainly doing fine! Why I saw the Drug Store and Dry Goods Store and the other concerns as I road-past on the cars, I'll tell you they are just fine. I heard about the talks and lectures and I tell you they will exhert a great influence in the community." "NUF SED, 'well, have you paid your poll tax?' Nutin Butair "I believe it highly necessary that each man pay his poll tax; as well as to sub scribe for a colored newspaper; and I am going down to pay my poll tax and subscribe for a colored paper." Butair, what the public wants is a man of deeds, not words. We have too many, of your ilk now. We want more than mere hot air. It is needless to say that Mr. B. Nutin Butair, felt like 30 cents backed up in to a corner begging for ice-water as a result of this encounter. I shall tell about Helping Hand next week. The Duty of the Hour. We give here the substance of the "recent address of Rev. H. H. Proctor, D. D., of Atlanta, before the Men's Sunday Club. "I am very glad to have the honor of opening this course of lectures of this club because of the bedrock principles for which you stand. You are uniting the best in the city to go down and lift up the lowest. That is the very finest thing men can do, and it is just the kind of work needed in every quarter of the Southland, especially where our people are gathered in such great numbers as they are in this beautiful and progressive city. "We are living to-day in the midst of three new realities. This is a new nation, new in sense that for the first time in history a nation has been conceived on the principle of the essential equality of men, in this conception Jefferson was all but inspired. "We live in the midst of a new South. The old South is passing; it is not wholly gone; a few dead leaves yet remain, but they are sure to fall with the uprush of the new life of the nation of which it is a part "We live in the midst of a new Negro. The old Negro burdened with ignorance, poverty and vice is passing, a new Negro exchanging ignorance for intelligence, poverty for prosperity and vice for virtue is coming, and coming millions strong. He asks for no favors, only a square deal. "In the light of these realities we are prepared to see what the so called problem of the races is and how to work it out. It is a three-cornered problem. There is a problem each from the point of view of the nation, the South and the Negro. "The problem from the point of view of the nation is how to keep the whites and blacks of the South in peace. Clearly this is a recession from the high point of view held by the nation when coming out of the conflict of the sixties, baptized with blood it adopted the famous amendments to the constitution. "The problem from the point of view of the South is how to keep the Negro in the place of the Old. To this there are brilliant exceptions, and though in the majority now they are yet to sway the South. "The problem from the point of view of the Negro is simply how he may get a man's chance. He asks for nothing because he is black, and insists that nothing be denied him because he is not white. "If the problem from the point of view of the nation is how to keep the blacks and whites in'pace, the answer is Justice." One man's rights should not to be sacrificed for another's prejudices. Only on the basis of the golden rule can there be permanent harmony in the South. "If the problem from the point of view of the South is how to hold the New Negro in the place of the Old, the answer is, you can't do it. The trend of the world is toward larger liberty, and you can't hold the men of one generation down to the conditions of a previous one. Russia is a warning in this. If the problem from the point of view of the Negro is how he may get a chance the more we take it. No race ever got its rights by simply asking for them. We must deserve the rights we seek, and be in a position to make it 'to the interest of the other man to give us the things we ask. It is at a bottom business matter. "We are now prepared to consider more directly what the duty of the hour is. It is first of all to clearly recognize what our rights are." "We have a right to life, without which we should not be deprived without due process of law. This trite statement invests itself with new significance when it is remembered how many of our people have been summarily put to death in the last ew years. "We have a right to life. If the black man is equal to the white then give him the same education; if inferior give him a superior education; if superior then an inferior education. "We have a right to the ballot. We challenge the white South to put up any fair test for voting and administer it impartially. It is not Saxon to dodge, behind such subterfuges as grandfather clauses. What the South needs is not white supremacy but right supremacy. All virtue is not coincident with the color line. "We have a right to expect to be treated as men. What if Booker Wannamaker did dine with John Washington? Were not both gentlemen willing? In a land of religious, intellectual and political freedom there should also be social freedom, "But duties and rights go together. Every right implies a duty. We ought to continue to exercise the spirit of tolerance. Often the highest duty we can perform is not exercise a certain right. Flexibility is one of our native traits. It has been the salvation of the Negro in America, and properly developed and exercised it will insure to the Negro his niche in the national life. It is this spirit in the Negro that has prevented the expected race war in the South. It is this spirit that has enabled the Negro to strive in spite of adversity. We must develop more pluck. Once we believed in rabbi's feet; now we must believe more in our own feet. Pluck is the only luck worth having. The right kind of pluck will lead us to turn aside from chimerical schemes and work out our destiny here on Southern soil notwithstanding the obstacles in the way. We must turn stumbling blocks into stepping stones. "We must go down and lift up the man at the bottom. That is just the work this Club is doing. It was necessary at a certain point in our race life to differentiate between the good and the bad. That has now been pretty well done. Now we are ready to turn and lift up the bad by a process of transformation to the level of the good. That is the highest work any people can do. It is a twice blessed work; it blesses not only the lifted, but those lifting. Nothing can so lift ourselves in the estimation of those whose esteem we desire as going down to lift up those of our kind beneath us. "Some are doubtful as to the future glory of this race than I have of the sun rising to-morrow morning. That sun will rise because the hand of God is behind it. Behind this race as behind that sun is the alternate hand of God; and if we are true to him, we are as sure to rise as the morning sun. The W. H. and F. Missionary Society of St. James A. M. E. Church, held its regular monthly meeting last Wednesday afternoon. All reports were good. A special sermon was preached to this society Sunday night at 8 o'clock also to the juvenile department. This noble band of Christian-workers presented a very beautiful appearance clad in the colors of their organization, white and purple. Rey. Mrs. M. W. Wolf, the far famed missionary and evangelist, who has just returned from an extensive tour of the western states, addressed the society on this occasion, among other things she said "Through all of my travels I have never seen so great a spirit of missions manifested in both young and old as I see here." A fine portrait of Bishop H. M. Turner was presented to this society by the Georgia Annual Conference as a token of appreciation for faithful service. A high tribute of commendation was paid to Mrs. F. L. Hadley who or organized this society, she is corresponding secretary of the mission board of her conference, treasurer of the Savannah District, and was recently appointed by her Bishop to represent the Sixth Episcopal District on the General Mission Board of the A. M. E. church for four years. Mrs. Hadley is an earnest worker for the cause, and merits the honors that have come to her. Mrs. Hattie Lockhart, who is vice President, of this society is at the head of the Juvenile department; Mrs. M Waters who is president, heads the W. H. and F. M., the latter will attend the Annual Conference. Linen Wedding. The celebration of the linen wedding of Capt. and Mrs. Golden, took place at their residence upon the ca pus of the Georgia State Industrial College, Thursday evening of last week. It was one of the leading social events of the season. The handsome parlor was beautifully decorated with ferns, mosses, palms and cut flowers. The porch was illuminated with Japanese lanterns. At 8:30 o'clock Mr. and Mrs. Golden marched into the parlor accompanied by Mrs. L. B. Reed, of the city; Miss Palmer Warren of Augusta. Rev. F. R. Sims, made a few remarks, congratulating the happy couple upon the success which had come to them during the 12 years of their happy wedding life. Mrs. Golden was gowned in a handsome dress of white linen trimmed with white lace. Capt. Golden appeared in a full dress evening suit. Many valuable and useful presents were received. The evening was one of rare pleasure. Mr. and Mrs. Golden are still receiving the congratulation of their friends. No Secret About It.

How It Was Organized, What It gives Members and who join the club. Sales Now a Hundred a Month to Satisfied Customers Who Save Nearly $125. Two months ago dates the advent of the Ludden & Bates Piano Club in the city of Savannah and the country around. At that time we chose the Ludden & Bates Piano Club as our method of introducing the New Scale $400 Ludden & Bates Piano to the public. Since its first organization and a few people were permitted to know the merits of this elegant piano, it has been almost impossible for us to supply the demand for it. Ludden & Bates Pianos have been sold over the entire South for the past 20 years, but never be fore have we been able to offer the public such value, such piano satisfaction, at a popular price and on such easy terms of payments. MOTHERS DESIRE IT—because promises to implant in the minds of their children the purest conception of tone and to the fingers to skilled technique, and besides giving the home the greatest air of refinement, it adorns it with majesty; in fact, ALL THAT PERTAINS TO THE "LUDEN & BATES" IN REGAL. It is the only piano made or sold in the South at an absolute, unchangeable price—to schools, colleges and to the individual alike—$287. There isn't a piano sold in the South that will compare with it for much less than double the club price of $287. Under our club plan nearly 200 people—at least half of whom might never have been The New Scale $400 Ludden & Bates Piano appeals alike to musician and mechanic. As a medium of corroborating our claims for it at that time the piano has allowed no doubt to remain even in the mind of the most skeptical as to the justice of our reputation to make good, every promise given or every responsibility we assume. The New Scale $400 Ludden & Bates Club Piano is "WARRANTED FOR A LIFETIME" and for the past 35 years the name "Ludden & Bates" has stood for truth, and this instrument in its embodiment of truth is our emblem. MUSICIANS HAVE CHOSEN IT—because it met their demands in every particular. Its resonance of tone, sympathetic quality and wonderful sustaining power, with its evenness of touch, have made it alike the favorite of singer and player. BUSINESS MEN HAVE SELECTED IT—because in all its mechanical appearances it has reached the standard of workmanship, and combining its artistic qualities with its pleasing design of case, it offers them A MAXIMUM OF VALUE FOR A MINIMUM OF PRICE.

He writes: "My kidneys were so far gone, I could not sit on a chair without a cushion; and suffered from dreadful backache, heartache, and depression.

Under the geadral ead- ing of “minor lucome aud expeditures,” however, there appear, Stems —whiclr iuight well excite the interest aud amusement of the casual student, Whatever else may be sald about our fsreat railroad systems, good or bad, they have never been nccused of lack jot careful, systematic operation fn the xpeniitures’ of the grent sums of huoney which must annually be made for efficient mamtenanee. There Is no stricter aud better business schoot from which a young man or woman aan graduate than one of the great rank railroad systems which criss- crocs our continent in all directions. A single railroad system will have npwayd of four or five hundred sta~ ‘ions along its different routes, whicb: hnust be supplied with certaly house- hold articles and utensils for good housekeeping. Every modern rail- road appreciates the value of clean, anitary stations, aiiil these temporary topping places for the traveling pub- ic are kept in better condition each neceeding year. Greater comforts are supplied by rival roads, and tne ex- penditures in this direction are direet- y noticeable in the Inereased patron- ge. | ‘The “general bousz!erer? of reat trunk railroad line is most fre- imently a aman, and his business fs to manage the stations, supplying them with all needful articles, and elosely Watching the waste to seo how a sav ng can be effected. Under his bureau outrol there come nuincrous items of Pparently small concern, but wikeh in he aggregate awount to considerable uns. For instance, on the Santa Fe ystem last year, the “geveral house- kceper” purchased and distributed 26,- 00 brooms to keep the stations and Aces of the company clean. Twenty housand boxes of soap, 25,000 scrub: hing brushes, avd a similar number of hand-mops figured in the expenditures. ‘he housekeepers of the individual sta- fons and ofices represent a formidable \rwy. Upward df 10,000 of these were uaployed off and on last year by the Ranta Pe road. At many of the small tations, the agent Is his own house Keerer, ticket seller, telesrapher, and reneral freight agent; but at the larg- r stations sernbbers and cleaners are smployed by the year, ‘The employes and officials of a big Fond must have peus. ink, paper, and }ven pins, Last year the pin item on he Santa Fe was no considerable bne, ‘The total weight of the pins pought by the general housekeeper ind distributed to the employes was 3000 pounds. Forty thousand pens rere also used, and fifty barrels of ink. there were enough lead pencils used © reach from Chicago to New York, nd half way back again, if they were placed end to end. j,An Interesting question that comes DP in every Lousehold is the disposi- ion of the waste. ‘The railroad house- eeper is careful to study out any lconoiy and the waste along thé whole ine 48 economically disposed of. Waste pivs, pens, paper, old brooms, hops, bottles, and worn-out machinery if locomotives are gathered up along e route and sold for junk or “old rap.” <\ small item, one would say, but a hrge cne when considered in its true ight. "From waste paper alone last ar the railroad abore realized a rofi€ of $5000. Pens, shingles and jails proved of importaht value. The fal value of the “scrap jheap” ached the enormous sum of $1,250,- Of course the greater part of this ‘aste came from the worn-out locom- ives and cars which are ‘sent to the crap heap after they have ceased to je of further value to the company. nt on the small household items lentioned, upward of “$100,000 were lized. Ryerything 1s economically isposed of. Even the ashes are sold r utilized for improving the roadbed. ‘The equipment cf statlovs to-day |. pith slot machines, literature, and res- wurants has greatly increased the la- jors of thé housekeep:ng department. some instances the concessions are | ld to private companies, but on me roads the rights to sell articles fiong the route are retained by the ransportation company. On the Santa |. ‘¢ route last year $11,500 were taken |. h the penny slot machines for chewing jum. This meant that a million and], ore Pennies were dropped into the | yachines. ‘The supply of literature by the rall-| ad company is enormous. Upward | j ff five thousand train toys hawked | fe periodicals through the cars as I-| { ‘nsed sellers, and half as many more | | ia hoclee: and mesnetnee de the are: rm “: eS eee eee eat ar re rene ee err ean Will use upward of ntty carloads of provisfoné in the course of a year, But these are distributed’ so generally aud gradually that they never block the Hine of traffic. : The tendency of the-public to eat; drink, and read while trayeling 1s 50 steadily on the Increase that more conveniences are béing made to satis- fy it im this direction, {ravellng fi. braries have become features of the leading parlor cars, and patrons of the road can read Yhelr favorite authors or magazines without expense, ‘The traveling cafe! and dining car are as common {o-day as the smoker or bag- gage. To supply these thousands of cars, with all the necessary provisions and articles of diet to sult the most fastidious, the general housekeeper in charge of this department buys in Wholesale quantities all along the line. A single railroad system will use up- ward of 50,000 barrels of flour a year, for the dining-car service, 40,000 pairs of poultry, 10,000 quarters of beef, innumerable tons of fruits, pastry and vegetables. To be at the head of such an extensive housekeeping de- partment, a manager must buy eco- nomically, and dispose of the surplag and waste profitably. Frults and rege- tables purchased in the South are taken aboard the northbound trains at the most convenient point, aud northern fruits and vegetables in sum- mer are likewise shipped South in the same way. Thus all the delicacies of the country are used In and out of season at the lowest minimum of cost. If we shoul add to the general housekeeping economfes of ‘a railroad ‘the items which pertain more distinct- Iy to the gardening or Iandscape de- partment, we should fiva more inter- esting statistics. Every railroad bas its landscape gardening department to- day, and tens of thousands of plants, trees, and shrubs are planted aud eul-- tivated every seasén. Ore eastern road puts out nearly a mfilion bedding plants every season to decorite the grounds around the stations, and an- other raises cut flowers so that every office and fmportant station 1s supplied with fresh-cut flowers every day through the summer season. Ten thou- sand cut flowers are weekly disteb- uted forjtable decoration on the din- ing-cars.! It costs money to support this department, but the indirect re- sults are apparent in the approval, and increased travel, of patrons. The care of the Imen of 4 single trunk line Is a gigantic task, No ho- tel or series of hotels offers any com- Parison. The napkins‘and table lnen for the dining service of one road momnt up into the tens of thousands, and the towels and bed linen for the sleepers represent nearly as many more separate articles. The annual wash of the sleeper and dining car service amounts to an expenditure of $25,000, although it Is nearly all done by steam and machinery. To keep up the supply of linen upward of 10,000 Separate pieces of linen arg purchased annually. On the great transcontinent- al trunk Ines more money is spent on the table and bed linen than on such apparently important articles as car brackets for hats and coats or uphols- tered cushion seats for passengers. Yet so careful is the system that every napkin, towel, tablecloth, sheet or pil- lowcase must be accounted for, and not one can be lost without some adequate explanation accompanying the report of its disappearance. Strict business principles prevail throughout the whole department.—Sclentific American. MOCK MARRIAGE TO PLEASE DYING MAN. “Would Have Been Inhuman Not to Have Granted License, Though Mlegal,” Says Clerk. Believing that his last expressed wish had been gratified and that .bis sweetheart, Miss Edith Bruszer, had become his wife through repeating the words of the marringe ceremony after a South Chicago physician, Edward L. Bordman, a switchman, who had been crushed between two cars, died recently in the hospital of the Illinois Steel Company, Chicago. ‘The mother of theyoung,woman, Mrs, Mathilda Bruszer, had hurriedly lett for Chicago to secure a marriage Il- cense, but had not returned in time so a mluister could be sum{noned. After the young man was injured he expressed the wish that he and his fiancee should be married before he died. Mrs. Bruszer had not returned, and the young man, realizing that he had but a few moments to live, re- quested Dr. Hannah S. Starrow, who had attended Lim, to pronounce Miss Bruszer his wife. Hardly had Dr, Starrow finished repeating the words of a marriage ceremony when Hord- man fell to one side of the hospital bed. “My wife at last,” he sald in a low tone. He tried to repeat the words, but succumbed. A State Javw, ignored in the“issuance of the license, Is the one enacted at the last session of the State Legislature, which provides that no third party can obtain the Hcense. “Mrs, Bruszer explained the sad cir- cumstances and I fssued the lcense,” explained License Clerk Salmonson, “It would have been Inhuman to de otherwise.” : Advertising Fills Churches.

Each should be favored so long as it dées gpod. But each should be sarply checked where it acts against law and justice, So long as the finances of the Nation are kat upon ant lionest basis no other question of internal economy ‘with which the Congréss has the pow- br to deal begins to approach, in im- portance the matter of endeavoring to secure proper industrial conditions under which the individuals—and es- pteially the great edtporatinns—doing jan interstate business are to act. The makers of our National Constitatiod | provided especially that the regulation lof interstate commerce should come within the sphere of the General Gov- ernment. The arguments in favor of their taking this stand were even then overwhelming. But they ate far | stronger ‘to-day, in view of the enor- ‘mons development of great business ageiicies, usually corporate in form. ,Experience has shown conclusively that it is useless to try to get any tadequate regulation and supervision ‘of these great corporations by Statc taction, Such regulation and mupervis- {ion ean only bo effectively exercised by a sovereign whose jurisdiction is teoextensive with the field of work of | the corporations—that is, by the Nat- ‘ional Government. " | Iam weil aware of the difiienlties jof the levislation that I am suggeat: ing, and of the need of femperats and cautious action in socuiing it, I should lemphaticaily protest agaist improp- erly radival or hasty action. ‘The first thing todo is to deal with the great corporations engaged in, the business of interstate transportation. As I said in my Message of December 0 Nast, the immediate and most pressing jneed, so far as legislation is*concern: [ed, i the enactment into lav of som: scheme to secure to the agents of the ‘Government such supervision and reg: ‘ulation of the-rates charged by_ the |railroads of the country engaged in jinterstate trafile as shall summarily ‘and effectively prevent the impositior ‘of unjust or unreasonable rates, I must include putting a complete stop to xebates in every shape and form. {This powe. to regulate rates, like al similar powers over the _ busines: {world, should be exereised with modi “fication, caution and self-restraint, {but it should exist, so that it can be ‘effectively execised when the nec ‘tries. | _ The fist consideration to be kept fi sind is that the power should be affir (mative and, should be given to some administrative body created by the Congress. Illegal transactions often occur un. der the forms of law. It has often oe- curred ‘that a~shipper has been told by a traflie officer to buy a large quantity of some commodity and ther after it has been bought an open re duetion is made in rate take effect immediately, the arangement result. ing to the damage of all their com pelitors; for it must not be forgotter that the hig shippers are at least as much to blame a9 any railroad in the matter of rebates. ‘The law should make it clear so that nobody ean fai to understand that any kind of com: mission paid on freight shipments whether in this form or in the form of fictitious damages, or of a concession ‘a fross pass, reduced passenger rate of payment of brokerage, is illegal. All private-car Tines, industria roads, refrigerator charges, and the Tike should ‘be expressly put unde1 the supervision of the Interstate Com merce Commission or ‘some stinila body so far as rates, and agreement: practically affecting’ rates, are con cored. The private-car owners ané the owners of industriel railroads are entitled to a fair and reasonable com: pensation on their investment, bu! neither private cars nor industria railfosds nor spur tracks should be ‘Atilized as devices for securing prefer ential rates. A rebate in icing charges ar in mileage, or in x difision of the rate for. refrigerating charges is jus as pernicious as a rebate,in any othe: way. No lower rate should apply o: | goods imported than actually objain: they had propex:direttion:and ‘proper autho to pees boli axd papers) Gould accompliel uel Azprcventing will) Wolations, of tHe Jews I nrge_upot the Congress thé- need ok prondiesse, expeditions: Action by the Interstate Commeres Commis- slom in ‘all theso. matters, whether in regulatiie rites for transportation or ‘for StoHlg or bandling“property or tommodities in transit, ‘The history of the cases litigated ‘under the pres- ent eormares act showe that its efl- vacay has been.tosa great degree des- troyed by the hg oe gf, deleyy ale moat ‘the most Yormidable wWeapok in the bands of those. whose purpose Hit is to violate the Jaw. © © Safety Appilanves: ta my annual Méssage to the Fifty- eighth Congress, at its third session T called attention to the necessity for Acgteation requiring the use of- “~ signals tipo railroads engaged in interstate commerce. The numUler of serious collisions upon unblocked roads that-have ceenrred within the past year adds force to the recom- mendation then made, ‘The Congress should provide, by appropriate legis- lation, for the introduetion ‘of block signals upon all railroads engaged in interstate commerce at the earliest practicable date, as a measure of in- gzeaned safety fo the traveling pub- ie. ‘Hours of Labor of Railroad But ployees, The excessive ‘hours of Iabor to which railroad employees in train ser- vice are in many cases subjected is also a matter which moy well’engago the serious attention of the Con gress, ‘The strain, both mental and physieal, upon those who are etigdgtd in the movement and operation of ailrona trains under movera condi: tions is perhaps greatet than that which exisis in any other industry, jand if there are any reasons for limit- jg by Jaw the hours of Tabor in any omploytient, they certalily apply with petullat force tv the ebiployment of those upon whose vigilance and alert- ness in the performance of their du- ties the safety of all who travel by rail depends. « Labor, - ‘Tho National Government has as a rule but little occasion to deal with the formidable group of problems connected more or less directly with what is known as the Inbor question, for in the great majority of cases these problems must be dealt with by the State and municipal anthorities and not by the Natjohal Government. The National Government has con- trol of the District of Columbia, how- ever, and it should sco to it that fhie City of Washington is made a model city in all respects, both as regards parks, public grounds, proper regula- tion of the system of housing so as to do away with the evils of alley tenements, a proper system of educa- tion, a proper system of dealing with traaney and juvenile offenders, a pro- per handling of the charitable work of the District, - Moreover, there should be proper factory laws to pre- vent all abuses in the employment of women and children in the District. These will be useful chiefly as ob- ject lessons,’ but even this limited amount of usefulness would be of real national value. | ‘Thete has been demand for depriv- ing courts of the power to issue in- junctions in labor disputes. Such special limitation of the equity pow- ers of our courts would be-most un- wise. It is true that some jndges have misused this power; but this does not justify a denial of the power any more than af improper exercise of the power to call a strike by a labor leader would justify the denial of the right to strike. ‘The Department of Commerce and Labor should also make a thorough in- Yestigation of the condition of women in industry. Over five million American women are now engaged in gainfnl occupations; yet there is an almost complete dearth of data upon which to base any trast- worthy conclusions as regards a sub- Jeet as important, as it is vast and complicated.

In my last annual Message, I recommended “that the Congress carefully consider whether the pow- er of the Bareau of Corporations can not constitutionally be extended to cover interstate transactions in in- surance.’ Recent events have em- phasized the importance of an early and exhaustive consideration of- this /question, to see whether it isnot pos ible to famnieh better safeguards shan the several States have been able’ to furnish, [against corraption of th fagrant kjad-whichi bas.beer expoied. ‘Tt has. been -only too elearly ‘shown that-eertain af the med at he head jot these large corporations take, but ‘small note of=thesethical distinction between! hofiesty‘and. dishonesty’ they draw, the ‘line” oily this. side“of "what ae ber calledlaw honaty, the ki ‘nonesty ‘ecéseaty. in‘pndar: 40 a Salling: inte the abyiehien' atthe toot we hl Uc (‘i ‘RT QOS rl, CUT SC—ClC(<‘(“ *K’;*tC PS TUF So Ta Pe ae eS Of? course “the. only “cemplete xertédy Ofc epiee Se. sommes ah ee an aroused, publig eonecisne; 2 higher sense Uf elliltal-Yolldltt it ‘tHe com. unity at large, and especially among business men and in the great pro- fession of tho law, ‘and in the growth of @ spirit which condemns all dis- honesty, whether in rich man or in poor san) whother it takes the shape of biibery ot of bliéktuail.

It is not possible to lay down any general rnle by which to determine the moment when the reasons for will outweigh those against such a change.

But in time of peace the revenue must on the ay- erage, taking a series of years to- gether, equal the expenditures or else the revenues must be increased. Last year there was a deficit. Unless our expenditures can be kept within the revenues ther our revenue laws must bo readjusted. , Hoonomy it Bzepnditares, I earnestly recommend to the Con- gress the need of economy and to this end of a rigid scrutiny of appro- priations. As examples merely, I call your attention to one of two specific matters, All unnecessary offices should ‘be abolished. The Commis- sioner of the General Land Office recommends the abolishment of the of- fice-of receiver of public moneys for United States a oflees, et, in speaking of ecenomy, I must in nd wise be understood a3 advo- cating the false econoiny which is in the end the worst extravagance, To cut down on tho Navy, for instance, would be a crime against the Nation. fo fail to push forward all work on the Panama Canal would bo as great a folly. ‘At Varions times I have institated investigations into the organization and conduct of the business of the Exeeiitive Departments. While none of these inquiries have yet progressed far enough to warrant final conelu- sions, they havo alrendy confirmed and emphasized the genoral imres- sion that the organization of the De- partments iscoften faulty in princi- ple and wasteful ip results, while many of their bpsiness methods are artiquidated and, inefficient. There is every reason ‘why our excentive governmental machinery shonld be at least as well planned, economical, and efficient as the best machinery of the great business organizations, which at present is not the ease, ‘Monroe Doctrine. One of the most effective instru. ments for peace is the Monroe Doc- trine as it has beon and is being grad- nally developed by this Nation and seeepted by other nations. No othe policy could have been as efilcient in promoting peace in the Western Hemisphere and in giving to each na- tion thereon the chance to dovelop along its own lines. If wo had refused to apply the Doctrine to changing jconditions it would now be complete- ly outworn, would not meet any of the needs of the present day, and indeed would probably by this time have sank into complete oblivion. It is useful at home, and is mesting with recognition abroad becanse we have aAantad Gab anetinatlon Beak te saeel nae ae ee ee a ae eee oa gard‘ the case of Santo Domingoa® standing. wholly by itself,"and to be treatéd-as such, and not on: general principles or with ity reference to.

We not llave 9, very small army—indeed, one well-tial infinitesinal when compared with the ‘army of any other large nation. Of course the Army wo do have should ‘be as ttearly perfoct of its. kind and for its siz as peau I do not be- lieve that bay army id the world has & better aterage of eplisted man or a, better bps ‘of juiior officer; but the Army ghould be trairied to net effectively in a mass. Provisiott should be made by sufllcient appro- printions for maneuvers of a practi- etl kind sv that the troops may leara how'to tako care pf themselves under actual service conditious; every march for instance, being made with the soldier loaded exactly as he would be in active campaign. The generals and colonels would thereby have op- portunity of | handling | repiments, ‘brigades, and divisions, aud the eom- misary ‘and medical departments ‘would be tested in the field. Provis- on should be made for the exercise at least of a brigade ani ss fence of © divisiin in marching and embarking at some point and continu- ing its march. ‘Che number of posts in which the Atmy is kept in time of peace should be matriaily diiinshed and the posts that are left made cor respondingly larger, No local inter- ests should be allowed to stand in the way of assembling the greater part of the troops which would at heed form our field armies in stations of such size as will permit tho best training to be given to the personnel of all grades, including the high offi- cers and ctaff officers: ‘To accom- plish this end wo must*have not ¢om- pany oF-regimental garrisons, ‘btu rigade and division garrisons. Federal Elections. ‘The President touches upon the question of Federal elections, quot- jing the well known constitutional provision that Congress shall be the final judge of the qualification of its jown ‘members. He also declares strongly against all forms of, corrup- tion and expresses regret at the grow- ing tendency to increase expenses in connection with the conduct of po- litical campaigns, Briefly, he ad- vocates the greatest ‘possible . purity of the ballot and the fulest free- dom of the exercise of the elective franchise consistent with good gov- ernment. ‘Immigration. | ‘Thes ubject of immigration-is treat- ed by Mr. Roosevelt in a particnlar- ly able and thoughtful manner, The tendeney of foreigners to congregate in sections of the country already congested with people is lored. High-closs foreiguers are desirable and are welcomed, but only those with tendencies towards good citizen- ship and of industrious and law-ab- iding’ habits will add to the general welfare 6f the nation. It is pointed out that our farming sections need labor, and that all who come with a will to work will find a ready welcome. Criminal Laws. In my last Message I asked the attention of the Congress to the ur. gent need of action to make our criminal law more effective; and I ‘most earnestly request that you pay heed to the report of the Aattorney- General on this subject. Centuries ago it was especially needful to throw every safeguard round the ac- cused. Such danger then was lest he should be wronged by the state. ‘Tho danger is now exactly the reverse. Breaches of Trust in Public Service, ‘There seems to bo no statute of the United States which provides for the punishment of a‘ United States attorney or other officer of the Government who corruptly ogres to wrongfully do or wrongfully re- frain from doing any act when the consideration for such corrupt agree- ment is’ other than one possessing money value. This ought to be reme- |died ‘by appropriato legislation. Public Land Laws.

Admission to “Statehood. * I recommend that Indian Territory and Oklahoma be adimtted as one State and that Mexico and Arizona be admitted as one State. There is no obligation upon us to treat terri- torial subdivisions, which are mat: ters of convenience only, as ‘bind- ing us on the-question of admission to statehood. © Panama Canal ‘\- The treatment between the United States and the Republic of Panama, under which the construction of the Panama Canal was made possible, went into effect with its ratification by the United States on April 23, Tod, om payment of $40,000,000 to that company. On April 1, 1905, the Commission was reorganized ‘and it now consists of --Theodore_ P. Shonts, chairman, Charlés “E. Ma- ‘Admiral Mordecai T. Endicott, Brig. Gen, Peter C. Hains, and Col. Oswald H. Ernst. ‘Tho Department of State. I recommend more adequate. pro- vision than has been made hereto- fore for the work of the ‘Depart- }ment of State. Within a few years there bas been a very great increase jin the amount and importanee of the ‘work to be done by that Department, both in Washington and abroad.

Dr. Hartwick, writing hundreds of such letters, all clearest in these letters, from the highest to the lowest. The outdoor laborer, the indoor artisan, the clerk, the editor, the staterman, the preacher—all agree that Peruna is the catarch remedy of the age. The stage and rostrum, recognizing catarch as their greatest enemy, are especially enthusiastic in their praise and testimony. Any man who wishes perfect health must be entirely free from catarrh.

JOYS OF MATERNITY Mrs. Potts Tells How Woman Should Prepare for Motherhood - The darkest days of husband and wife are when they come to look forward to childless and lonely old age. - Many a wife has found herself incapable of motherhood owing to a displacement of the womb or lack of strength in the generative organs. Mrs. Anna Potts Frequent backache and distressing pains, accompanied by offensive discharges and generally by irregular and scanty menstruation indicate a displacement or nerve degeneration of the womb and surrounding organs. The question that troubles women is how can a woman who has some female trouble bear healthy children? Mrs. Anna Potts, of 510 Park Avenue, Hot Springs, Ark., writes: *My Dear Mrs. Pinkham*: "During the early part of my married life I was delicate in health; both my husband and I were very ill. I lived at home, but I had two miscarriages, and could not carry a child to maturity. A neighbor, who had been cured by Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound advised me to try it. I did so and soon felt that I was growing stronger, my headaches and backaches let me fall. I felt like a new woman. Within a year I became the mother of a strong, healthy child, the joy of our home. Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is certainly a splendid remedy, and I wish every woman who wants to become a mother would try it." Actual sterility in woman is very rare. If any woman thinks she is sterile, let her try. Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and write to Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass. Her advice is to expectant or would be mother. Thieves Discovered by: Tyrus, Phoebe, Sophie have played an important part in the capture of criminals, said Detective William Barrett, of Buffalo. "Had it not been for the footwear of certain thieves they would never have been caught. It is not so long ago that I and two others were detailed on a case, and before we caught our man, another shop had been burglarized. "We looked at the marks about the windows and noticed they were scraped by nails. We went back to the other place and found the same conditions. Later we went into a well known resort and found a man sitting in a chair. He had his feet, encased in a neat fitting pair of shoes, but for some reason he had nails put in the heels. We "jumped" him at once, and searching in his rooms we discovered enough loot to start a store. He later explained that the nails were put in his shoes to aid in roof climbing. "Squeaky shoes have caused the arrest of several thieves right in this precinct. The other night, a thief bought a pair of cheap shoes and they were very musical. The man got into a place, and before he got anything his noisy shoes gave him away and he was caught. All clever criminals have a pouchant for buying good, soft shoes. They pay a good price for them and they are repaid sometimes by getting off with the swag to pay for what they spent."—Shoe Retailer. FITSpermanentlyyoured.

Dogs Have Appendicitis. Somewhat late, but nevertheless, in line with the procession, fashionable dogs about the city have adopted the fad of having appendicitis, and just at the present time it looks as if canine social circles will be greatly disturbed this winter by the inconveniences of the malady, says the Baltimore News. One of the latest cases is that of Miss Anne, a blooded English grey-bound which belongs to Mrs Mary Voniff, of No. 600 Glimor street. About three weeks ago Miss Anne showed signs of intense palms in her side. She whined and her owner had her carried to a dog hospital near Calverton. "Appendicitis," said the resident physician. And so it came to pass that Miss Anne underwent treatment at the hospital in Calverton. But the canine "400" is rejoicing once more for Miss Anno has return ed, having fully recovered. True, her vermiform appendix was not removed, but then the treatment of dogs and human beings is said to differ For fifteen years no suicide of a Jew, was recorded in the seven great districts that comprise the most populous part of central London.
