V01. XXV.
Hundred Thousand People Are Panic Stricken.
FRANTIC EFFORTS TO ESCAPE FLAMES.
The Loss May Be $100,000,000—Crowd of 100,000 on Grounds When the Flames Sweep Them—Two Dead, Thirty Injured.
Brussels (Special).—The white city of the "World's Fair," as the Belgians call the 1910 exposition, is now a mass of flames and smouldering ruins. A spark falling into inflammable material in the telegraph building burst in flames, which driven by a high wind, swept rapidly in all directions. Soon the Belgian, English and French sections were destroyed. The firemen and detachments of soldiers, called quickly to the scene, found themselves baffled by the veritable gale, which carried the burning embers to all parts of the grounds.
The loss in the exposition fire is estimated at 500,000,000 francs ($100,000,000).
To the left of the main building arose the picturesque rooftops and spires of "Bruxelles" Kermesz, a Belgian Coney Island, with water chutes, toboggan slides and scores of side shows. This place was alive with Sunday crowds, and before they could be gotten out with any semblance of order the Kermesz was ablaze. The crowds became panic-stricken, and men, women and children fought men with their fists became choked with the fringling masses, and men used their fists to clear the pathway. Many were tramped under foot and badly injured.
Soon the enormous facade tumbled in ruins. Considering the rapidity of the conflagration, the small loss of life is mervelous. So far as is known up to a late hour tonight only two are dead. The injured, as officially announced, number 30, but probably many hundreds received minor hurts.
POLICEMEN MUITNY.
Refuse to Guard Against Strikers in Columbus, Ohio.
Columbus, Ohio (Special)—Fifty-three members of the Police Department within 24 hours have rebelled against Mayor Marshall's orders to ride on street cars.
The mutineers were increased by 20. All of the 20 were men employed as specials for strike duty. Unlike the regular officers who mutinied, the 20 specials were not suspended, but upon their refusal to board cars they were told that by that act they had removed themselves from the service.
The Mayor made no call for the return of State troops. Officers of the Fourth Regiment, four companies of which are stationed in Columbus, they have been told to hold themselves ready for service, but at the adjutant-general's office it is denied that preparations have been made for calling out troops.
Mayor Marshall called for 2,000 volunteers for police duty. He took the brunt of all criticism against the manner in which the situation has been handled, but said that if his critics were sincere they would offer to perform police duty.
SNOW-WHITE WATER.
Sea Captain Relates Seeing an Inexplicable Phenomenon.
Port Townsend, Wash. (Special).—In a report to the United States Hydrograph office here the statement is made of an inexplicable phenomenon that marines interests declare is without precedent. The statement is filed by Captain Samuels, of the American barkentine Aurora, on arrival from Callao, Peru. On June 17, in latitude 11 degrees south, and longitude 80 degrees west, according to the report, the vessel's course brought her into an area of snow-white water. The expanse was so large as to require nearly an entire shipyard to traverse. Its emergence with the natural ocean water was sharp and definitely defined in color, creating a mervelous scene of marine beauty.
Investigation with every means available failed to show the phenomenon to be due to submarine volcanic eruption or other seismic upheavals.
Feud Breaks Out.
Lexington, Ky. (Special)—Two persons were probably fatally hurt and several others severely injured in a free-for-all fight between the McNabb and Rose families and several friends in Wolfe founty, according to reports which were probably fatally wounded, while Rose was so badly beaten that his recovery is doubtful. The fight occurred on the public road, where the belligerents, who had an old grudge, had met.
Big Elevator Burned.
Buffalo, N. Y. (Special)—The.burning of the Globe Elevator Company's buildings, near the Buffalo water front, caused a loss of about $125,000, and gave the fire department several hours of strenuous work. The company's 300,000-bushel elevator, valued at about $40,000, completely wrecked, was uninsured. -The loss in grain in storage is partially covered by insurance.
Kills His Assailants.
Asheville, N. C. (Special)—Reports from Weaverville state that Furman and Rome Cappa, two young men of that town, were shot and killed by Dr. Clarence Pickens after the latter had been attacked with knives.
THE TRIBUNE OFFICE REMOVED TO 462 WEST BROAD STREET.
KILLS FAMILY AND SELF.
Life Taken By Each of Four Revolver Shots.
Chicago (Special).—W. J. Meyers, keeper of a shooting gallery, used his skill with a revolver with tragic purpose, shooting three members of his household through the head and then taking his own life.
Just four shots were fired, and four lives were snuffed out by Meyers' unerring aim.
Policeman Dennis O'Neill was passing the Meyers home when he heard the four shots in rapid succession. Breaking into the apartment he found the dead where they had fallen. A revolver with four chambers empty lay beside the body of Meyers. Death in each case apparently had been instantaneous.
Meyers and his wife separated recently after she had him placed under bonds to keep the peace. There are no living eyewitnesses to the tragedy.
Experts Work on Supposed Belle Elmore's Body.
Prof. Pepper, the British Home Office Physician, Now Seems Sure of the Identity of the Remains Found Under Crippen's House.
London (Special).—It is reported that the authorities have discovered a clue to the certain identity of the body unearthed in the Hilldrop Crescent home of Dr. Hawley H. Crippen, now under arrest in Quebec, awaiting extradition on the charge of having murdered an unnamed woman. The police have contended till along that the bits of flesh were parts of the body of Belle Elmore, the actress wife of Dr. Crippen, but their identification as such has been a matter of much doubt.
It is generally believed that the case of the crown rests on a positive identification and the greatest importance is attached to the latest developments. The hopeful clue was obtained during an exhaustive examination of the body by Professor Pepper, the Home Office expert who had previously given many hours to the problem. During the five hours that he worked Professor Pepper obtained conclusive evidence that the sex was feminine. He then continued with the purpose of determining the manner of death, having in mind the possibility that poison was used.
The analysis, so far as the poison theory is concerned, was not completed, but it was reported that the physician, whom he had undergone a surgical operation. If this can be established the authorities claim that they will have gone a long way in proving that the victim was Belle Elmore. It is doubtful if anything beyond the scientific evidence is brought to light before the return here of Dr. Crippen and Ethel Clare Le Neve, who are jointly charged with guilty knowledge of the woman's death.
MANY NEW GOVERNORS.
Largest Number Ever Chosen at One Time—Four Elections Before Fall Washington, D. C. (Special)—At the coming fall elections more States will elect governors than ever before in the history of the Union. For the first time Oregon is to join the list of Commonwealths electing their executives in November. Heretofore the Oregon State election has been held in June. A total of 36 governors are to be elected this fall. Thirty-two will be voted for for the governor of New Mexico. Three States—Vermont, Maine and Arkansas—will vote for governor next month, and Georgia will elect its executive in October.
The gubernatorial contests in some of the States are of a more than ordinarily interesting character. The elections in others will be of a purely perfunctory character, the election of the Republican or the Democratic candidate, as the case is being being legislated. Socialists and Prohibitionists will have candidates for governor in a majority of the States, and in some of them they are expected to poll a considerable vote.
COLLAR STAY CAUSES FIRE:
Celluloid Explodes in Laundry, Resulting in a Loss of $90,000.
Portland, Ore. (Special)—The little device titilized by women to hold up their lace collars—a piece of celluloid about two inches long and a quarter of an inch wide, worth five cents the half dozen—cost the United States Laundry Company a fire loss of $10,000, and imperilled 280 laundry workers.
The collar stay had been left in a woman's waist with hundreds of clothing, had been placed in the dryroom in the basement. The waist was hung close to the superheated pipes that lined the room. Suddenly the celluloid exploded and the room was instantly in flames.
Two hundred panic-stricken girls refused to desend the smoke-filled stairway. Firemen, finally by sheer strength, drove them down the stairways to the street. Five minutes after the last one had been rescued, the entire building was in flames.
Strangled by False Teeth.
Louisville, KY. (Special) - While sweeping, Miss Lillie Knutz accidentally dislodged her false teeth. They became lodged in her windpipe and she was strangled to death before help could be summoned.
SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, AUGUST 20, 1910.
JAPANESE FLOODS
` THOUSANDS HOMELESS
A Portion of the Japanese Capital Now Submerged.
385 PEOPLE DEAD AND 500 MORE MISSING
Thousands of Homeless and Hundry People Sheltered in the Temples and Schoolhouses—Not Enough Boats to Convey the Sufferers to Places of Shelter—A Hotel Patronized by Foreigners Destroyed—All the Guests, However, Are Safe.
Tokio (Special)—The great floods in this city and vicinity caused by the high water in the River Sumida have caused, so far as reported, 385 deaths and 500 others are missing.
At 6 o'clock A. M. it was announced that the flood was subsiding.
The Honjo and Fukadawa wards of Tokyo are submerged
homerged.
Tens of thousands of persons are homeless and staying. One of the three more important environments guarding Tokyo gave way and had the second and third dikes broken half the capital would have been submerged. The threatened embankments were guarded by troops.
Thousands of homeless persons are being sheltered in the temples and schoolhouses, at which relief stations the most deplorable sights are witnessed. The victims of the floods are wholly dependent upon public relief. Thousands more have been unable to find shelter, owing to the insufficiency of boats to convey them to places of safety, and they are exposed to the rain and hunger.
Every available boat is being employed in the work of rescue and to convey food where it is most needed.
The question of feeding the stricken people is causing apprehension. The vegetable and fish supplies are failing, and the stock of biscuits already is nearly exhausted. There is no fear, however, for the sumply of rice.
The mountain flood in the neighborhood of Karuizawa destroyed the Mikasa Hotel. Many foreigners were stopping to bathe, but ultimately no fatality has been reported so far.
375 REET TO DEATH.
Hundreds See Demented Sailor Leap
From High Tower
Detroit, Mich. (Special)—A Detroit Journal special from Sault Ste. Maries, Mich. says. Riley Johnson, a demented sailor, committed suicide by jumping from a 375-foot tower of a wireless telephone company here while hundreds of spectators were powerless to prevent the tragedy.
The sailor threatened to jump on any policeman who attempted to follow him and defied the officers to shoot. Johnson's home is believed to be in Chicago. He had a lake seaman's card from Union, No. 1563.
Murder and Suicide.
Kansas City; Mo. (Special)—William Davis, 59 years old, a wealthy farmer of Braymer, shot and killed his brother-in-law's widow, Mrs. Nattie O'Dell, in a rooming house here and then killed himself. Davis leaves a widow and a son in Braymer. Mrs. O'Dell was 39 years old, Davis shot Mrs. O'Dell five times.
Three Boys Killed by Train.
Emlenton, Pa. (Special) —Leo Rapp, aged 13; Walter Sloan, aged 10, and Emile Jacobs, aged 11, were killed when a train on the Allegheny Valley Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad struck a horse and wagon in which they were riding. Rapp's body was tossed a hundred feet from the track.
Former Congressman Bound Dead. Milton, Pa. (Special) — Franklin Bound, who was a member of the Fortyninth and Fiftieth Congresses; died here, aged 81 years. He was a delegate to the State Convention which nominated Andrew G. Curtin for governor and a delegate to the National Convention which nominated Grant for President.
No Arrest in Three Years.
Denver, Col. (Special).—According to Martha D. Coates, assistant secretary of the State Board of Charities and Corrections, who has returned from an inspection of the city jail at Eldorado, Col., that town holds the record for law abiding communities. In three years not a single arrest has been made and the door of the jail has stood wide open. Eldorado has a population of 500 persons.
Kidnapped By Brigands.
Rome ('Special)—The mystery of the disappearance of Salvatore Setta, one of the richest landowners in Sardinia, was solved when brigands who kidnapped him on his big estate, demanded $10,000 for his ransom. It is probable that Setta's family will pay the price, as Signor Ruin, another big landowner, was recently killed by brigands because the price demanded for his liberation was not paid.
Speaks for Six $ ^{c} $Days.
The Hague (Special)—Senator Elihu Root concluded his six-day speech before the Arbitration Tribunal, which will decide the, Newfoundland fisheries dispute. His speech marked the end of his first voyage, his last voyage to the arbitrators. A verdict is not expected before the latter part of September or early in October.
Spread of Infantile Paralysis.
Providence, R. I. (Special)—Much concern is being felt throughout Rhode Island on account of the steady increase of infantile paralysis, critically unknown, in this State, but since that time new cases have been reported nearly every day.
PITTSBURG'S EXPOSITION.
Will Consist of Exhibits of Land Interest Only.
Pittsburg, Pa. (Special).—Pittsburg is preparing for the biggest indoor exposition ever held in the East. The show is to be known as the National Land and Irrigation Exposition, and will consist of exhibits, of land interest only. There will be government and state exhibits of modern farms and model dairies; models of irrigation plans and systems; samples of irrigation seeds, plants, fruits, vegetables, fruit trees, medicinal materials, other earth products. Lectures on soil restoration and agriculture will also be given, and chambers of commerce, boards of trade and commercial bodies from all parts of the country will demonstrate to the farmer, the homeseeker and investor the particular advantages of their various districts. The exposition will take place October 17 to 29.
Aviator Brookins Plunges Into Crowd of Spectators.
Daring Bird-man, Who Holds the Altitude Record, in Avoiding a Throng of Spectators, Meets a Tricky Wind and Machine Turns over Backward at Asbury Park.
Asbury Park, N. J. (Special).—A serious mishap to Walter Brookins, in which the daring Wright aviator was painfully, but not dangerously hurt, marred the opening day of the aviation meet here. Brookins was dashed, stunned to the earth when the machine suddenly turned turtle after he had been forced to swerve the airship suddenly to avoid crashing into a crowd of spectators. Seven other persons among whom the machine tumbled were more or less seriously injured. Brookins is the aviator who on July 9 climbed to the record height of 6,275 feet at Atlantic City and then coated safely to the earth with his power shut off.
Brookins was pinned under the wreckage, and was only half conscious when friends reached him. This started a report that he had been fatally injured. An examination showed that his nose was broken and that he had been badly bruised and shaken, up.
The mishap was witnessed by the large crowd gathered for 'the meet and was directly due to the thronging of spectators out into the field. Brookins in descending had no room to operate the machine, and was driven to make a sudden turn to avoid crashing among the watchers. The tricky wind caught the machine and sent it spinning over backward.
In the face of a high wind the aviator had made a successful short flight, circling the field and then descended in a splendid sweep. As he neared the earth he first saw the crowd in the field near the point where he had intended to descend. To avoid them he swerved the machine sharply and found himself headed straight for the grandstand. Instantly he allowed the machine to drop, when it turned turtle.
When Brookins was found beneath the tangle of the torn plane fabric and splintered framework and wires he lay on the sod of the aviation field with his face in a pool of blood and his right hand still grasping a steering lever. He was thought to be dead as he was dragged out of the wreck by Chief of Police Sexton and Private Henry Kruschka, of the Third Infantry, New Jersey National guard. While being carried into the hospital tent a few feet away, however, the aviator began to groam, and, as Dr. Taylor, of the Asbury Park Free Dispensary, leaned over him in the hospital tent, Brookins asked weakly, "How did it happen?"
Had the aeroplane fallen 10 feet further back in its flight it would have undoubtedly crashed upon the grandstand crowd and crushed many men, women and children, who a few moments before were cheering the aviator. One could almost reach out and touch the wreckage from the front row of the grandstand seats.
AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
Major William R. Logan, supervisor of industries of the Indian Service, and superintendent of the Fort Belkapp Indian Reservation, in Montana, has been appointed supervisor in charge of the construction of roads and trails in the Glacier National Park, in Montana. The United States Civil Services Commission has decided to localize appointments outside of Washington by giving them over to district secretaries. Complaint has been filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission that charges by the Pullman Company for upper berths are excessive. General Wood, chief of staff of the Army, has directed a battalion of the Fourteenth Infantry to go to Missouri, Mont., to help in fighting forest fires on the Flathead Indian Reservation. Bituminous coal miners of the middle Tennessee have been conditions than do the men engaged in the same industry in Pennsylvania, according to the National Immigration Commission.
Mrs. Judith Ellen Horton Foster, the noted temperance lecturer, and writer, died in Garfield Hospital, after an operation. The population of New Haven, Conn., according to the Census' Bureau, is 133,605.
His Reparted Statement ta the French Premier.
HE IS FIRM TOWARD THE VATICAN.
Declares They Organized Juntas of Which Village-Priests Are the Leaders—His Complaint to the Vatican Ignored—Will Reduce the Number of Religious Orders.
Paris·(Special)—Les Nouvelle says that it is authorized to deny the statement of the Madrid Epoca that Premier Briand strongly advised King Alfonso against a rupture with Rome and blamed the severance of diplomatic relations between France and the Holy See to the clumsiness of the Vatican.
The paper says further that King Alfonso during the interview with Premier Briand talked frankly about the situation and told the French statesman in energetic terms that he did not propose to obey the injunction of the Vatican, to tolerate the threats of Pius X, or to allow the Vatican to mix in Spanish politics.
Les Nouvelles adds:
"M. Briand's experience enabled him to offer sage advice to the young monarch, warning his majesty to proceed diplomatically, and avoid brusqueness and wounding."
MAYOR GAYNOR STILL IMPROVING Condition Favorable, but Bloodpoisoning Still Possible.
New York (Special)—Another day has passed and Mayor Wm. J. Gaynor, shot in the neck by James J. Gallagher, shows no symptoms of blood poisoning. He continues to rest well at intervals, to take nourishment when desired and, if the bulletins his surgeons issue disguise nothing, his condition is favorable toward ultimate recovery. The bugbear of septicaemia is not yet passed, however, nor is the possibility that an artery or a blood vessel has been scraped by the bullet. With these possibilities ever present he is still in the danger zone and will be for more than a week. The same feeling of anxiety is felt in lesser degree, but there is no going behind the official bulletins. There were reports that the Mayor's temperature was placed slightly during the afternoon, but no bulletin to this effect was issued. On the contrary, his physicians maintain their hopeful attitude. Reports that his pulse was weaker also found no official confirmation.
SWEETER THAN EVER
Per Capita Consumption of Sugar Last Year Was Eighty-Two Pounds.
Washington, D. C. (Special)—The average American nte 82 pounds of sugar last year, which was more than he ever had eaten before in the history of the country. The figures for the 12 months ended June 30 were just made public by the Department of Commerce and Labor. "Can you estimate the increased percentage of sweetness therefore possessed by the American girl?" was asked. "That is impossible," solemnly replied the statistical clerk. "I can say, however, that the figures show that a greater percentage of the sweetness assimilated by the American people was what you might term home grown sweetness—that is, sugar produced on American soil." The total amount of sugar eaten by American sugaring the year is estimated at seven and one-half billion pounds. Only in two previous years did the total ever approach the seven billion mark, and only on four other occasions did it exceed six billions.
Hawaii, Porto Rico, the Philippines and the sugar producing lands in the United States schowed increased production. Hawaii increased from 1,078,000,000 pounds the previous year to 1,000,111,000 pounds; Porto Rico from 488,000,000 to 569,000,000 pounds, the best sugar fields in the United States from 967 to 1,025,000,000 pounds. The Philippines broke all records since their annexation, with 176,000,000 pounds. The cane fields in the United States alone decreased, showing a reduction from 829,000,000 to 750,000,000 pounds.
HEIM'S TERRIBLE FALL.
The Aeroplane Drops 225 Feet at Johannisthal
Johannisthal', Germany (Special)—The aeroplanist Heim met with a serious accident at the aviation meet here. While flying at & height of about 223 feet in a Wright machine one of the propeller's blades broke. The other continued to causing the car to turn over several times. It fell and was completely demolished. Heim was carried off the field unconscious. Later he regained consciousness, but his injuries are considered very grave.
Captain Scott Cool.
Cape Town (Special)—No alarm is felt by Captain Scott, commander of the British Antarctic expedition, over the delay in the arrival of the Terra Nova, the vessel that the expedition is to use in its foray to the South Pole.—The vessel is now 12 days overdue and has not been spoken since she left Madeira on June 27. Captain Scott says such delays are not unusual and that he will not become apprehensive if the vessel is not heard from for two weeks yet.
ADVISES RACE TO
SUPPORT PROHIBITION
Statistics Show That Lawlessness Has
Decreased Fifty Per Cent Among
the Negroes of Georgia.
The Hon. Seaborn Wright recently delivered a lecture at Wesley Memorial church in Atlanta (Ga.) under the auspices of the Anti-Saloon league in which he stated that prohibition was one of the means of uplifting the negro and suppressing crime among both races.
Speaking further on the subject, Mr. Wright said:
"The feeling against the negro today is much stronger in the border states than in the south. How can we account for the large number of criminal negroes in these sections? Before the advance of prohibition in the south they have retreated with the saloon to the north.
"Crime among the negro population of Georgia has decreased 50 per cent since the passing of the prohibition law. I remember reading in the Constitution three weeks after the enforcement of this law a splendid editorial calling attention to the fact that as a result of the law the prison doors were open wide and the prison empty. The saloon is the maker of criminals; it is their rendezvous and neating place. Why is it that all men cannot realize this?"

Speaks of Liquor Fight.
Mr. Wright then spoke of the desperate fight the liquor interests were making to check the spread of prohibition and to recover lost ground. He recalled the predictions that as a business would die and the great interests of the south fall away. "On the contrary, never before had there been prosperity. Your census returning will show an increase in wealth above that of any other section.
"By trying to nullify the laws, the liquor interests are endevouring to win back what they have lost," the speaker continued. "They claim that the laws cannot be enforced and in consequence should be repealed. Shall we surrender? Do you realize the results of such a step? Would you return to old conditions when the pictures of your women were hanging, in negro club rooms?"
The claim of the liquor interests that laws regulating the sale of intoxicants would prove more satisfactorily than the present law, was taken up by Mr. Wright. He cited in refutation of this the state of things in Chicago, where such regulatory laws are supposed to be in force, and claimed that the liquor interests in that city are strong enough not only to compel the city officials to break these laws, but they actually run in addition to the saloon business a large trade in the white slave traffic and gambling.
No Personal Liberty.
"There are many who say that prohibition interferes with personal liberty," continued Mr. Wright. "In a civilized community there is no such thing as a personal liberty. Personal liberty is the life of a savage; the civilized man must realize that the highest law is the public welfare. "Suppose a strong man comes to me and says, 'You are interfering, with my personal liberty.' I show him a group of mothers with their young boys at their sides. They appeal to the man and ask his help for their sons' sakes. A wife whose husband cannot resist the craving for alcohol begs the man for aid. Suppose the man spurns their supplications and insists on having his 'personal liberty.' Brothers, that man is not actuated by personal liberty, but by rank self- laziness."

Her elopement caused quite a flutter.
Yes, her lover hid in the hen house while she was getting her things packed.
Something like a blast took place at Bonawe quarries the other day when upward of 400,000 tons of granite was displaced. The face of the rock was 300 feet high and the powder was located 80 feet from the quarry floor.
Patching Walls.
Sifted coal ashes, wheat flour and sand mixed with water makes an excellent mortar for patching holes where plaster is broken. It becomes as hard as stone and can be put on by hand with very little trouble.
A Canary's Ears.
A canary's ears are back of and a little below its eyes. They are not hard to find when one has learned where to look. There is no outer ear, such as animals have, but simply a small opening which is covered by feathers. It is quite surprising that birds possess the very acute hearing which they do, while lacking the fleshy flap which enables the animals to catch sounds.—St. Nicholas.

There were four in our party. Our staterooms had a communicating door through which only a very slender person could pass. But providence had been our friend. We were able to get through nicely.
Sue and Hannah were the, stiffest of Episcopallians, while Edith and I were the bluest of blue-stocking, Presbyterians. Edith was fearful. She predicted all manner of dire things that might happen. We had laughingly agreed that all her ill omens would come to pass.
We were to reach our destination at seven o'clock in the morning. Long before, that hour Edith awoke.
"Something has happened," she exclaimed. "This boat is not going."
"Maybe it has grown tired. Let it take care of itself, and come back to bed."
But Edith, going to the window, bemoaned and bewailed that trouble of some sort was about to happen. "Get your faith in better working order, Edith," said Hannah. "If you this way. One of the greatest show on earth is now about to open. Free performance on the grounds immedately after the parade." It was silly, to say the best of it

Maxims of John B.
From the rules of conduct of his Rockefeller, Jr., and from the majesty the Bible class of which he was knowledge of the character of the other way. Here are a tew:
Modern methods should be easy few.
The chief thing in life is to do
Thirty cents is all I ever spend a man on a salary.
The growth of a business is me.
Do the little every-day duties of well. That is success.
The most successful business in most successful Christian men.
Success comes by doing the commonly well.
There are three chief requisites.
The first is honesty—absolute honesty the third is perseverance.
It is no crime to accumulate honest and proper means, but it is proper use.
The moral order of the universe the individual power of any man.
Be honest in business, even if standpoint.
The man who talks one thing on week days does untold injury.
Much of John D. Rockefeller's philosophy has been expressed in a series of "don'ts." The best of them are here given:
On Success—Don't sit back and wait for the door to be opened. On Borrowing—Don't spoil friendship by trying to borrow money from a friend.
On Bravery—Don't shrink from criticism. Don't be a quitter. Don't be afraid to assert yourself. You must let men know that you are not afraid to do things.
On Riches—Don't worship the almighty dollar. Don't envy those who are rich.
On Habits—Don't go around wearing a sour face. Don't be a hypocrite. Hypocrisy is the meanest of characteristics. Don't be a human sponge. Don't live above your income; the man who lives within his means will have little to be afraid of. Don't question the motives of those who, having sinned, are trying to show by their actions that they have turned over a new leaf.
Maxims of John D. Rockefeller, Jr.
From the rules of conduct of his own life laid down by John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and from the maxims given mostly in addresses to the Bible class of which he was long the leader, a more intimate knowledge of the character of the man may be learned than in any other way. Here are a tew:
Modern methods should be employed even at the expense of the few.
There are three chief requisites for a successful business man. The first is honesty—absolute honesty—the second is industry and the third is perseverance.

"Go back to bed and get to sleep," cried Sue. "I'm paying for the privilege of a bed to sleep on, and I'm going to sleep if you will keep quiet long enough."
Thus discouraged, Edith went back to bed. We fell asleep. It seemed but a few minutes until Hannah opened her eyes and looked at her watch. It's eight o'clock. They have forgotten to call us."
"Hurriedly dressing, we went on deck. It was almost nine o'clock now, but we had reached nowhere, and
The modern hen is the most productive of all domestic animals. We compared a Leghorn hen that weighed 3 1-2 pounds and laid 200 eggs weighing 25 pounds with a 1,000-pound Jersey cow giving in a year 1,000 pounds of milk containing 14 per cent. of solids.
If you take the dry matter of the hen and compare it with the dry matter in the eggs she lays in a year there will be five and on-half times as much in the eggs as in her whole body. The weight of the dry matter in the cow's body to the weight of dry matter in the milk will be as it to 2.9.
In other words, based upon the dry matter, the hen doca twice as well as the cow. I expect the hen is the most efficient transformer of raw material into a finished product that there is on the farm. Her physiological activity is something, remarkable. So in that particular the hen stands in a class by herself.

For a time, the new experience of being stranded kept us from feeling the tedium of our position. By noon we felt tired and hungry. Ours was a night boat with no preparation made for serving breakfast.
Steamers passed us, threw out cables, which snapped as a tightly drawn silk thread would have done. Then they passed on, leaving us gigher and dryer than before, for the tide was now ebbing.
Suddenly from the deck att came the sound of a bag-pipe, or horn and bags together. Then came marching through the saloon a great big, handsome man, inviting all to move to the fore-deck. All the while he sang out in a cherry voice:
"This way, ladies and gentlemen, this way. One of the greatest shows on earth is now about to open. Free performance on the grounds immediately after the parade."

yet it answered its purpose. It did just what he wanted it to do. It made us laugh, and aroused us from our selfish sullenness. As one we moved forward. On the fore-deck he had cleared a space for the performers. He sang first, and then called upon any one on whom his glance might rest. Every one took his requests with good grace, and responded with good will. There were clog dances, solos, recitations, and five-minute speeches. All interspersed with choruses by the company and auditions.

Before we were aware the six o'clock chimes rang, and looking about us, we saw, close at hand, an empty steward, in which we were to be transferred.
The last three hours, had passed all too quickly. We looked about us to thank our "Laugh Factory," "its everyone named him." His man was busy over the袋gage. The man himself, how interested in personal affairs was dignified and retiring.
We concluded that he was an actor, a humorous lecturer, or a writer for the funny papers, for of such an order his aftertoo's performance had been. But the man with his luggage put us right. He's the biggest silver, and mine operator in this continent. I'm one of his superintendents. No one's generally 'serious. I never saw him act like this before.'
Because, no occasion, before 'had demanded his cheer and humor. But this day, and the tired, sullen, hungry 'folk had demanded 'life' and brightness, 'and he, putting himself and his own feeling from him, made the day a happy one, for five hundred of us. It may seem a trifle; but to my mind it is no trifle to give three hours of brightness to one person, not to mention five hundred—Jean K. Baird in Sunday School Times.
FROM THE PRAYERS OF A VETERAN PASTOR
God of all grace, Former of our bodies and Father of our spirits, have compassion on our emptiness. The world is full of thee, and only our hearts seem vacant. Volces from thee reach us, falnt and vague, as if from the distance. The majesty ablimes in the morning sun, and thy grace ablimes the blooming plain; but our hearts remain dull to impression and empty of joy. Our spiritual senses are so inert. We do not respond to thy touch; or if we respond, it is only by childish curiosity and momentary sensation. We only say: "The day is warm, and forget, and pass on, not knowing that we have seen God face to face. We open thy Book, and find nothing. We listen to thy truth, and only yawn. We hear the cry of a child, and merely Brown. We do wrong, and feel no regret.
O Father, make us alive! So fill us with thyself that the glow of thy righteousness gladness shall transfigure our faces. Set our hearts afame with longing, our minds—hunger and thirst for truth; and let our entire life, quickened and alert, respond swiftly to thy presence, in all persons and all events. Take possession of our breasts. Cure our emptiness of majestic meaning in the panorama of passing occurrences, wherein thou dost vell and reveal thyself. Let us be no longer mere infants with feeble hands, unable to grasp life's tools, and with dull souls that cannot feel its noble ardor. Make us men, with every faculty tense, and every moment freighted with usefulness. Make us more really children, partakers of the divine nature, comprades of the infinite, sharers in God's great purposes and tasks, armed with thy power, thrilled with the sense of majestic opportunity vibrating to thy touch, and transmitting thy life to all who touch us. As the throbbing air silently conveys thy-sunlight to the darkened earth, so and more forcefully let our beating hearts and willing hands convey blessing to the needy, wherever we wish. Bring our whole life up to the level of our highest moods. So transform us that our deepest longings, which thou u hast hummed in OPS DEF control our constant habit.
We ask great things, for thou art a great God, and hast so blidden us to pray as thine own sons and daughters. No longer let any common thing seem trivial, or any common day inconsequential. Awaken and nourish our souls to moral largeness, and equip our lives with spiritual power.

We understand that our collector some time ago made arrangements with our deputy sheriff to get some "tatter" vines. He had his ground all nicely prepared and made ready for planting, and on last Saturday the deputy notified him that the vines were ready. He got them and put out his patch nicely, and as some one had told him to be sure and water-them when he planted, he proceeded to do so. He finished the first row when a hard shower drive him to shelter, and after several attempts in between showers to finish, he gave it up. He said the potatoes could go to Guinea-as he did-not intend to go out in the rain to finish the job.
Governor Oregon is considered in Newark, Ohio, a governor who actually governs. Birmingham Age-Herald When a man enters a Charleston man bought to come out killed.

Wearing a blazer, might instead of a buzz-say collar seems very attractive when the mercury is dallying around the nineties."
there is a well-founded traditional belief that an Indian, or many another savage, never forgot a great kindness or service done him or his people, and always repaid it, it possible, when the opportunity arose. The tradition may have arisen out of particular and peculiar experiences of personal character, but it is at least worthy of reflection that the same reputation does not attach to the Negro in the same romantic manner nor to the same gratifying degree. There are doubtless many exceptions to this general conclusion, but as a general indictment it seems to possess much which, unfortunately, is true. Yet the deep degradation and stunted capacity of a large portion of the newly emancipated Negro, to understand or appreciate his own condition or to realize or accept any condition of self-reliance or self-responsibility, was the natural cause of his lack of a particular sense of gratitude for benefits rendered him—Colorado Statesman.

Opposition to the proposed amendment to the constitution disfranchising the Negro citizens is not based on love for state. Oklahoma cannot ape those ultra-Southern states, Alabama, Mississippi and Georgia, without also paying the cost those states have paid for years. And Oklahoma can never become a member of the Solid South. It has not one thing in common with those states that still recognize the issues raised by the Civil war. The south has been standing still for most of the years that have elapsed since Appomattox. Because of the progressiveness and virility of its cosmopolitan citizenship Oklahoma has come farther in the last five years than Mississippi has in the last twenty-five. And still there is an element in Oklahoma politics that would copy after Mississippi.—The American.

Nashville has two Negro banks, Memphis has two, and Richmond has two, and yet the city of Little Rock hasn't any. The Negroes of other communities are organizing banks, shoe stores, dry goods stores and other enterprises for the race, while the Negroes of this city are standing around on corners whiling about the defunct Capital City, bank, and as a rule the man who is doing the most talking about the bank had less in it. These individuals are not moulding public sentiment against Negro enterprises and discouraging the few Negroes who are able or courageous enough to open another bank. The Negroes of Little Rock should be ashamed of themselves to stand around and continue to whine because some strange fellow or set of fellows have made a failure.—Mosate Guide.

Through the medium of the state department at Washington, arrangements have been perfected by which the Liberian government is to receive a loan of $1,500,000 from American bankers. This will not only give Liberia enough money to refund its national debt, but will also leave $250,000 to be used in financing the country. For this magnificent result, credit is due to President Taft, to Secretary P. C. Knox, as well as to former President Roosevelt administration, and, of course, especial credit is due the recent commission which went to Liberia, studied conditions and made the recommendations in regard to financing the country. These recommendations the state department has followed. President Taft and his administration deserve the deep gratitude of all who are interested in the preservation of the territorial integrity and national entity of the little republic.

Mothers should teach their girls how to cook. More people die of bad cooking than of consumption and the various fevers so prevalent nowadays; for the food is the thing that weakens the system, so that the germs can easily attack it. When the system is once weakened, it is a hard matter to restore it to its normal vitality, if such can be done. Most of the little girls are very anxious to learn to cook—People's Relief.

People living in the country, on farms can raise stock cheaper than they can buy. The price of meat will continue to advance, if those who are in position to raise hogs and cattle/wait for their fellow brothers to raise and supply them.
The grass that grows up in the hedger and dies, the vegetables that ferment and decay, the fragments that are taken from the tables, can be utilized in that way, with no price, save a little exertion. We should gather up the fragments, and let nothing be lost. Let us have domestic animals around us that will devour such things.
The man who has corn in his crib, cows in his stalls, hogs in his pen, and other farm products stored away, can smile, though the ground is covered with snow, for he is not dependent on any one.—People's Relief.
The public school system is for all, and no one person and set of persons ought to feel that it should be controlled and operated in their interests. If defects arise and it becomes necessary to call the attention of the public to them, let it be done with the best of motives and with due consideration for common welfare. And when matters have been investigated, and settled, let there be a spirit of trust and co-operation, hoping still for better results. They will come, and can only be hastened by careful attention to our responsibilities as sharers in the common welfare, contending only for principles, and backing them with reasonable, sound judgment. "A house divided against itself cannot stand."—Sea Island News.

The state is doubly indebted to the Negro youth agriculturally. The Negro is most largely an agricultural factor, and it is his duty of the state to increase his opportunity for usefulness and development. The state can not rise any higher in intelligence and wealth than the character and intelligence of all its people warrant. In the fitness of things, 47 per cent, of Negro illiteracy reduces white literacy. The state can not rise any higher in progress and intelligence than it lifts all the people. It is the duty of the state to prepare agricultural facilities for Negro improvement. Just in proportion as the state decreases ignorance and indulence, it increases its wealth and respectability; and in like manner it increases wealth and intelligence as it uplifts and elevates all the people. —Atlanta Independent.

The Hindus have been the recipients of justice of the unwarranted rioting against them, and the perpetrators thereof have met with the proper punishment, regardless of the fact that the victims were dark-skinned and the rioters Caucasans. Oregon is a good place, and offers exceptional opportunities, both for protection before the law and also to work out one's livelihood, and it would be well for some of the race to wind their way here and live the balance of their days either working for themselves on their own farms or getting employment of any kind at all—much better than running the risk of mob law violence in the south—Portland (Ore.), Advocate.

"And I tell you, calmly and with deliberation, weighing my words with the care of one who has learned to be economical with emphasis, that the greatest problem of our day—your day, more accurately speaking—is the making of citizens instead of criminals out of the masses of the Negroes that everywhere in the south eddy and swirl into the body politic of the Anglo-Saxon."—Judge Hopkins, Atlanta Independent.

When a man is great let there be none who'd show him less honor than that. which he himself enjoys. Proud then must all people be when the hero arrives. This product of a republican form of government who, by grace of his wonderful personality, can control the political and social conditions of mankind as if in the palm of his hand, and shape a nation's policy as if by magic, knows no law, no king, nor kingdom. No castle nor palace is too high or mighty for the receiving of his truth. Roosevelt, frank and aggressive, gentle and kind, is the uncrowned king of the world's common people—Pittsburg Courier.
Ex-Governor John L Cox was the orator at a mass meeting of colored people at Bristol (Tenn.) He spoke words of encouragement and complimented them upon the excellent progress they have made in business, educational and other affairs since the organization of the Negro Business league of Bristol.

And it was gratifying to find that many of those who greeted him were not of his color, yet to men who are always courageous enough to recognize real worth, the life mission of Booker .T.

charged with Negro woes; South-
ern groyes were the chambers of
Negro prayers; Southern farms
were the concert halls of Negro
songs; the Negro ‘lived, worked,
died and passed to his reward.
Even as the beasts of the field, so
they lived; even as the grass of the
field, sothey died. Such was their
eruel lot. Indeed, this period of
traffic in human flesh, this period
in which the moral code was at
very low ebb, this period in which
the inhumanity of man to man
made countless millions mourn,
this period in which, truth, right
and justiceseemed to have gone on
along yacation, this period in
which a soul was of infinitesimal-
Jy small value, this period-we:say—
forms the blackest chapter in
American history. Yet, strange to
say, it was in this period that the
only product, distinctly American,
was giventothe world. We refer
to those beautiful plantation melo-
dies which portrayed the feelings,
emotions and life of the slaves, be-
yond the power of thepen. So
far as contributing something
strictly American, these slaye songs
are all that that our country has
given the world. Let us, there-
fore, see to it that these songs nev-
er die, :
We must not think that all slaves
expected freedom to come to them
or their descendants; for in those
dark days, had some prophet ven-
tured to tell the slaves that the day
of freedom was nigh at hand, the
majority of the slaves would have
laughed him to scorn; but toa
faithful minority who poured out
the saddest prayers which ever
pierced the ear of the Almighty,
nothing short of freedom was ex-
pected, because they remembered
that “‘Out.of one blood, God made
all nations,” that ““The’ prayers of
arighteous man availeth much,”
that “‘Him that cometh to me, I
will in no wise cast out.” Now
without detracting one jot from the
honor which belongs to Lincoln and
Grant, it isour candid opinion that
the prayers of these old slaves fig-
ured very prominently in the Ne-
gro being given his freedom in this
country. And with this freedom,
have come new duties. Duties
which we must meet like men.
Upon the proper discharge of these
duties hangs our destiny in the
race of life with Anglo-Saxon civ-
ilization, Every Negro who
amounts to something, helps the
cause- every Negro who falls by
the wayside, hinders the cause.
‘The strongest asset which we have
is the Negro who believes thoroeh-
ly in himself, who believes that no
power on earth can stop him from
reaching the goal for which he is
striving. The greatest draw-back
which we have is the 2x4 Negro
who runs down Negro enterprises,
schools, and churches and who does
not believe the race will amount to
anything in-jthis country, Tell
this Negro about a Negro school,
and he will find fault unless it
comes up to Yale or Harvard; tell
him about a Negro dry-goods store,
and be will find fault unless it
comes up to Macy or Wanamaker:
tell him about a Negro jewelry
store, and he thinks it ought to
come up to Tiffany; tell him about
a Negro newspaper, and he will
find fault unless it comes up to the
New York World or Herald; tell
him about a Negro bank, and he
will find fault unless it comes up
to a Wall Street concern; tell him
about a Negro insurance company,
and he will declare it isnothing un-
jess it comes up to the Equitable
or New York Life. Now the great
trouble with this kind of Negro is
-that he criticises all the time but
does not spend a ceit with a color
ed concern unless it isthe Negre
barber shop, and that’s because he
has toy Let us call out the steam
roller for this class, the sooner the
better,
To-day, Southern soil, once sat
urated with Negro blood, bloom:
and blossoms forth a glad harvest;
Sonthern air once surcharged with
farms; instend of giving’ off.sad
tunes, now give off songs. which
abound in optimism. :
Tur Tripusr: firmly believes that
the time will come'.in the-South-
land, yeas even in dear old Georgia,
when trath gets a hearing, when
justice comes into herown, that the
‘Negro will hecome a full-fledged
citizen, and will be incorporated
into the group fife of American
citizenship. Here's to one andall,
“There's a good time coming, help
‘it on.”

From the newspaper point of view, a college professor counts less than a professional gambler; a professional gambler counts less than an actress; a good actress counts less than a bad one; a bad actress counts less than a prize-fighter; a prize-fighter counts less than a chimpanzee that has been taught to smoke cigarettes, and an educated chimpanzee counts less than a millionaire who suffers from par anqia.
By continuously pondering
on the horrors of crime, and
vice, the American people are
roused to such a hatred of evil
that some editors receive a
salary of $100,000 a year—
Professor Grundschmidt, University of Berlin.
Professor Grundschnitt of the University of Berlin, has been in this country several months studying American newspapers in behalf of the German government. He has made his observations from the standpoint of a disinterested outsider and strictly from an academic and scientific attitude.
Professor Grunrschnitt has imported some of his views of the American newspaper, treating the subject in a vein of good humor, which gives to his views all the more force. The Learned man from Berlin has really an exalted of the American press, but he is not blind to some of its faults and expresses himself with a trenchant wit refreshing if it is keen. Has Trouble With Headlines. One of the difficulties experienced by the scientist was in gaining a reading knowledge of newspaper English. Such headlines as "Sugar Barons Hand Uncle Sam a Lemon" was a good deal of a poser for a German professor who knew English only from the writings of Shakespeare, Macaulay and Ralph Waldo Emerson. The professor worked four days on the problem, which he finally solved.
One of the conclusions reached by Herr Grundschnitt is that the red lines and colored pictures used by some newspapers, especially the Sunday editions, are a remnant of the practice of "tatooling," and this he thinks explains the reason why they appeal so largely to the common people as compared with people of culture.
Political Life
What the professor was anxious to learn was just how the newpapers shape the national life to the remarkable extent they undoubtedly did. He knew, of course, that the Americans are a free people, and that they select their own lawmakers and magistrates. He soon discovered that when the people desire to choose some one to rule over them they name two, three or more men for the "Then you don't want to leave footprints upon the sands of time?"
"Nix," answered the politician, guardedly. "All I want is to cover up my tracks."—Washington Herald.

Niece (shuddering)—Mercy! Then I'm very glad I refused him—Boston Transcript.
Q. HENRY'S READING.
The late "O. Henry," whose flippant and slangy stories gave him a great reputation as 'a humorist, was, in private life as a serious student. "A visitor to the library of Mr. Porter's, New York residence was amazed at the ponderous alstories and big brags on every side.
He laughed and added, whimsically,
"I make fancy cakes and sell them,
but if only eat, bread and meat."

same office. The newspapers then proceed to accuse these men of the vilest crimes, and the one who comes out least besmirched is declared to be elected. In the sphere of social relations, Herr Greundschmitt learned, the newspapers are mainly concerned with safeguarding the purity and integrity of the home. Most of them do this by printing full accounts of all murder and divorce trials. The professor said he could recall nothing in literature that quite equals the white heat of indignation with which a certain editor once spoke of the festering national sore revealed in the proceedings of a famous divorce suit, the nauseous details of which the reader will find in all their hideous completeness on the first page of the present issue, together with all the photographs ruled out of evidence on the ground of decency. The press also serves the cause of public morals by holding up to scorn the vices and extravagances of the vulgar rich, whose ill-used millions, as many economists have pointed out, are nothing more than what any American may look forward to, provided he has courage and energy.
Curious Methods Used.
The same ingenious method of promoting virtue by holding up vice to reprobation is pursued in every other field. The newspapers do not print the names of men who support their wives, but they print the names of the men who do not, or who support more than one. They do not publish the photographs of honest bank clerks, but of dishonest ones, and of these only when they have stolen a very large sum. They pay no attention to a clergyman as long as he advocates the brotherhood of man, but they have large headlines about the minister who believes in the moderate use of the Scotch highball. They overlook a college professor's epoch-making researches in American history and take him up when he comes out in favor of an exclusive diet of raw spinach.
Oddly enough, the American people freely criticise their newspapers. One of the commonest charges is that their editors write with great haate and little accurate information. But, Herr Grundschnitt argued, it is unfair to insist that newspapers shall be both forceful and accurate. It is true that the editors who supply the American people with opinions think fast and write fast, but it is absurd to maintain that as a class they are unreasonably set in their own beliefs. Editors, as a matter of fact, change their opinions every little while. In such cases they usually have no difficulty in proving that, while their present views are the right ones, their previous views were also right. This makes for consistency. Nor is there any reason for maintaining, as is often done, that editors are restive under criticism.
Power of the Press.
The printed sheet is with a man when he wakes in the morning and when he falls asleep at night and when he is at the breakfast table with his wife. The newspaper breaks up families and reunites other families, though it usually misspells their names. It chastises the racal and worries the honest man. It can make a reputation in a day and destroy a reputation in ten minutes, sending its owner into the grave or on the vaudeville stage.
It teaches presidents how to rule, women how to win husbands, the church how to save souls, and middle-aged gentlemen how to reduce weight by exercising ten minutes every day. It knows nearly everything and guesses at the rest. It will say almost anything and publish the rest at advertising rates. Without it democratic government would be difficult and traveling in the subway quite impossible. The newspaper is the only institution since the world began that succeeds in being all things to all men for the moderate sum of 1 cent a day. The only universal things that come cheaper are birth and death.

GOLDEN TEXT.—"The Son of Man came not to be ministered unto; but to minister and to give His life a ransom for many." Mattfl 20:28.
EXPOSITION—I. The Self-Seeking Disciples, 17:28. Jesus foresees and foretells all the definite details of His coming suffering at Jerusalem. It was the third time He had fold it to them since the transfiguration, but they were so occupied with their own petty ambitions that they had not needed what He had been saying. At this most inopportune moment two of the best men in the apostolic company come to Him with a request that they be preferred above all others; (v. 20; cf. Mk. 10:35). They presumed upon the fact that Jesus had already conferred upon them favors withheld from most of the apostolic company (Mk. 5:37; 9:2; 14:33). They may have also hoped something from the relationship existing between His family and their own. Jesus has often to say to us when we play, as to them, "Ye know not what ye ask" (Rom. 8:26). There was a condition of sharing Christ's glory with Him of which His petitioners little dreamed (v. 22:26-39; cf. Mk. 14:36; Lu. 22:42; Jno. 18:11; Lu. 12:50; 2. Tlm. 2:12; Rom. 8:17). James and John, full of self-confidence, unhesitatingly declared themselves able to drink the cup Christ drank and to be baptized with the baptism with which He was baptized.
11. Blind by the Wayside Begging, 29:31. The three accounts of this miracle (cf. Mk. 10:46-52; Lu. 18:35-43) differ in details. This appears like contradiction, but it is not necessarily so. A very possible explanation is that Jesus healed one blind man as He entered Jericho and this one told two others, one of whom was Bartimeus, and they waited for Jesus as He should depart from the city.
III. Receiving Sight and Following Jesus, 32-34. Jesus was on important business, the most important errand of His life, and yet "He stood still" to listen to the cry of the poor blind beggars and to relieve their need. Are we like Him? They were ready to go as soon as the call came (cf. Mk. 10:49-50). Everything depends on what we really "will" that God do for us. Jesus knew what they wanted, but would hear it from their own lips (ch. 6:8). Jesus would have definite prayers. They believed in Jesus as the Messiah, and the prophecies marked the Messiah as the restorer of sight. (Isa. 85:5; 42:17; Lu. 4:17-18). Jesus opened their eyes with a mere touch. The pure was instant and complete.

"We were sweethearts when we were little chaps."
"And, did something come between you?"
"Yes; her father built a fence around his back yard, seven feet high."
W. B. (Bat) Masterson, light expert of the New York Morning Telegraph, has the following to say about Jack Johnson, the undisputed, heavyweight champion of the Fight. world. Johnson's Comment. victory over Jeffries at Reno on last Fourth of July. has in no wise affected his popularity, it would seem. The fact that he was engaged, by Hammerstein, for a second week on the Victoria Root, at one of the biggest salaries ever paid a headliner at this popular yaudeville house, is an evidence of the fact that the champion has been making good at the box office.
"Nor has the fact that there has been what happens to be a well-organized movement in certain quarters to put the smother on the Negro champion, ever since, he defeated Jeffries, affected his drawing capacity in the show business. During Johnson's first week's engagement on the Victoria Root it was utterly impossible to obtain a seat at any price. The same conditions have prevailed during his second week's engagement, which obviously means that the race prejudice we have been hearing so much about lately has failed to materialize, and, in all fairness, this is as it should be.
"There never was any reason for becoming hysterical because Johnson is a Negro and that he defeated Jeffries in a fair-stand-up fight according to the ethics of the prize ring. And I doubt very much if the American people, generally, are disposed to drop the curtain on Johnson simply because he happens to be a Negro. Whatever prejudice may have existed, or still exists, against Johnson because of his color, cannot truthfully be charged to Americans. If such a prejudice does prevail in this country, it will be found among foreigners, or their immediate descendants.
"Johnson may or may not have a yellow streak, which means, in ring parlance, that he will quit under punishment. I, never saw him quilt. The fact is I never saw him punished in a contest, therefore, no reason existed for quitting. The talk about the yellow streak, I believe, was first put in circulation by Negro fighters, notably Sam Langford, Joe Jeannette, Klondike and Bob Armstrong. "All of this quartet excepting Armstrong, have fought Johnson, and all tell substantially the same story, which, is that the champion will back pedal when he's hurt. The only white fighter I ever heard say Johnson would quit was Sandy Ferguson. The latter avers that he made Johnson quit in seven rounds at Chelsea, Mass, five years ago. But that is neither here nor there.
"Tommy Burns, who was the recog-nized heavyweight champion, of the world when he lost the title to Johnson, failed to make the latter quit, and Burns says he punished Johnson in that fight so severely that the latter spent a week in a hospital recovering from his injuries.
---
"The undefeated retired heavyweight champion of the world, James J. Jeffries, who had never even been staggered in any of his battles, went down to ignominious defeat at the hands of the black man without bringing out the yellow streak in the latter. And there you are.
"Johnson boasts that if he has a yellow streak no one has ever been able to find it, and so far as my personal knowledge is concerned, I'll have to string with Johnson. Sam Langford and his manager Joe Wood-
International college baseball championships will become, an annual fixture if Coach A. A. Stagg, of the University of Chicago carries out his latest Japanese-American plan. The Maroon director, backed by the University of Chicago Board of Physical Culture, has invited the Wasaeda unit versity team to play at Marshall field next summer, and it is probable that the Oriental nine will accept the invitation. The Wasaeda-Chicago series is planned as a return exhibition following the Japanese trip to be made this fall by the Maroon baseball team.
"Don't believe all this bunk you read about the Cubs inside-ball, says third baseman "Doc" Casey, the former Chicago player. "Evers and Tinker have just one sign, and that tips off, one will cover second on a possible hit and run. This stuff about working with the pitcher is pure bunk."
Harvard plans to engage Fred Tenney as professional baseball coach next year. The position, it is said, will be worth as much as $3,000, a year to the former Giant star. Besides, Tenney, in his spare moments, would be provided with remunerative work.
At the seventh hour A. G. Spalding, the famous baseball and sporting goods man, filed his application as a candidate for the United States senate from California. Mr. Spalding has been living, at the Point Loma Theosophist.colony at San Diego because his wife wanted to be near Katherine. Tingley, the Purple Mother of the Theosophist Brotherhood Mr. Spalding has been urged by his friends to run for the senate, but he only consented at the last minute. His chances of election are considered to be excellent.
man, are both sure that Johnson possesses a yellow streak. So are they of being right in their conclusion they are offering to bet a large sum of money on the point.
"Also that Langford is the man to make the champion show this canary hue. Langford might be able to beat the champion, but I think he is hardly big enough for the job. Langford is a wonderful fighter, as all will agree, but how he is going to give Johnson fifty pounds in weight and a beating is a mystery to me. He might do it, of course. But, if, he did it would simply be cause Johnson had a yellow streak, and periaps two.
"If Johnson, behaves himself, and I mean by that if he takes care of himself, it will be some time before he loses his title. But if he persists in carrying on as he has since he acquired the title, about one year more will be all that will be required to land him in Jeffries' class. No athletes can go the pade Johnson has been going for the last two years, and remain a winner."

Jim Corbett threw some sidelights on the Jeffries-Johnson fight, declaring that Jeffries could have beaten a dozen Johnson before July 4, but that worry over several things caused his defeat. Corbett said that Jeffries worried over the criticism of the light by Governor Gillett; that he fretted constantly over the news that his friends were betting all their money on him, and also the fact that Billy Delaney, his old manager, was going to aid Johnson.
For thirteen years Hans Wagner has been hitting at a better than .300 clip, a feat besten by only two men in the history of the two major leagues. They Were Anson and Dan Brouthers. Anson had a .300 average for fifteen years straight and Brouthers, scored as high, a figure for fourteen years right off the reel.
Stanley Ketchel wants to fight Jim Jeffries for $10,000 a slide. Nothing doing. Jeff has quit for good.
Jack Ryder, speaking of Benton's maiden, effort at Chicago says, "Benton was not hit hard and he will make a cracking, good southpaw fit time. He is fearfully green, having poor ideas, about fielding his position, and he was so rattled by the speed of the Cubs on the bases that he twice stood in the box and let base runners advance without making a move to stop them.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound
*Chicago, Ill.*—I was troubled with falling and inflammation, and the doctors said I could not get well unless I had an operation, I knew I could not stand the strain of one, so I wrote to you sometime ago about my health and you told me what to do. After taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier I am to-day a well woman."—Mrs. WILLIAM AHRENS, 088 W. 21st St. Chicago, Ill.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, contains no narcotics or harmful drugs, and to-day holds the record for the largest number of actual cures of female diseases of any similar medicine in the country, and thousands of voluntary testimonials are on file in the Pinkham laboratory at Lynn, Mass., from women who have been cured from almost every form of female complaints, inflammation, ulceration, displacements, fibrotum tumors, irregularities, periodic pains, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration. Every such suffering woman owes it to herself to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial.

SIMPLE STATEMENT OF FACT
Mr. Johnson Unable to See Where In
Any Way He Had "Put His
Foot In It."
It is common to deplore the lack of humor in a person. Yet the very want of it may save a certain amount of embarrassment, as was the case on a certain occasion with President Johnson. "He was one day," says a writer in Harper's Magazine, "visiting my mother, and a friend, Mrs. Knox, a widow, came in. She had known Mr. Johnson some years before, when he was a member of the legislature but they had not met since then.
After mutual recognition, Mr. Johnson said: "How is Mr. Knox? I have not seen him lately."
"He has been dead six years," said Mrs. Knox.
"I thought I hadn't seen him on the street," said Mr. Johnson.
"When Mrs. Knox left, my mother said, laughing: 'That was a funny mistake of yours about Mr. Knox.'
"What mistake did I make?" said Johnson. "I said I hadn't seen him on the street, and I hadn't."

Judge Nicholas Longworth, who used
to sit on Ohio's supreme bench, looked
‘unnaturally grave, and a neighbor, in
recognition of his facial depression,
named a pet owl “Judge Longworth.”

Two Englishmen were resting at the
“Red Horse Inn” at Stratford on-Avon.
One of them discovered a print plc-
turing a low tumbling bullding under-
neath which was printed: “The House

Turning to bis friend in mild surprise
‘he pointed to the print. His friend ex-
‘hibited equal surprise, and called a

Brussels (Special).—The white city of
the “World’s Fair,” as the Belgians call
the 1910 exposition, is now 2 mass of
flames and smouldering ruins. A spark
falling into inflammable material in the
telegraph building burst up in flames,
which, driven by a high wind, swept
rapidly in afl directions. Soon the Bel-
gian, English and French sections were
destroyed. The firemen and detachments
of soldiers, ealled quickly to the <cene
found themselves baffled by the veritable
gale, which carried the burning émbers
to all parts of the grounds.
The loss in the exposition fire is esti-
sated ‘at 500,000,000 francs ($100,000,-
000).
To the left of the main building arose
the picturesmie roofs and spires of
“Bruexelles’ Kermesz,” 2 Belgian Coney
Island, with water chute’, toboggan
slides ‘and scores of side shows. This
place was alive with Sunday crowds, and
before they could be gotten out with any
semblance. of order the Kermesz was
ablaze. The crowds became panit-strick-
en, and men, women and children fought
madly t6 escape. The exits beeame choked
with the struggling masses, and men
ucéd their fists’ to clear the, pathway.
‘Many were tramped under foot‘and badly
injured.
‘Soon the enormous facade tumbled in
ruins. Considering the rapidity of the
conflagration, the small loss of life is
merrelous. So far as is known up to 4
late hour tonight only two are dead. The
injured, as offically announced, number

24 hours have rebelled against Mayor

‘The mutineers were inereased by 20.
| All of the 20 were men employed as spec-

officers who mutinied, the 20 specials
were not suspended, but upon their re-

‘The Mayor made no-eall for the return
of State troops. Officers of the Fourth
Regiment, four compafiies of which are
stationed in Columbus, say they have been
told to hola themselves ready for service,
but at the adjutant-general’s office it is
denied that preparations have been made
for calling out troops.
Mayor ‘Marshall called for 2,000 vole

manner i which the situation has been
handled, but said that if his erities were

LEG A MASS OF HUMOR
| “About seven years ago a small
‘abrasion appeared on my right leg
fust above my ankle. It irritated me
so that I began to scratch it, and it
began to spread until my leg from my
ankle to the knee was one solid scale
Ukeascab, The irritation was always
worse at night and would not allow
mo to sleep, or my wifeeither, and it
was completely undermining our
health. I lost fifty pounds in weight
and was almost out of my mind with
pain znd ghagrin as!no matter where
the irritation came, at work, on the
street or in the presence of company,
I would have fo scratch ityuntil I had
the blood running down into my shoe.
I simply cannot describe my suffer-
ing during those. seven years. The
pain, mortification, loss of sleep, both
to myself and wife is simply inde-
scribable on paper and one has to ex-
perience it to know what it is.
“I tried all Hinilfot doctors and rem-
edtes but I might ‘as well have thrown
my money downasewer. They would
ary up for a little while and fill me
with hope only to break out again just
as bad if not worse. I had given up
hope of ever being cured when I was
induced by my wife to give the Cutl-
cura Remedies a trial. After taking
the Cuticura Remedies for a little
while I began to see a change, and
after taking a dozen bottles of Cutt-
cura Resolvent in conjunction with
the Cuticura Soap and Cutlcura Oint-
ment, the trouble had entirely disap-
peared and my leg was as fine as the
day I was born. Now afteralapse of
six months with no signs of a recur-
rence I feel perfectly safe in extend-

“From several investigations that
have been made by the National As
sociation for the Study and Preven
tion of Tuberculosis it is estimated
that’on an average about 15 per
cent. of the prison population of the
country is afflicted -with tuberculosis.
On this basis, out of the 80,000 prison
ers housed in the, penal™ institutions
of the United Slates at any given
‘time, no less than 12,000 are Infected
with the disease. If the Philippine
fslands and other insular possess{ons
were taken into consideration the
number would be much larger. Some
of tho prisons of Pennsylvania, Kan-
sas and Ohio show such shocking con-
ditions with reference to tuberculosis
that many wardens admit that these
places of detention aro death traps.
Similar conditions could be found in
almost every state, and in the major-
{ty of cases the only sure remedy is
the destruction of the old buildings
