VOL. XXV. He Conspired Against Venezuela's President. The Government Publishes a Full Statement of the Facts In Which Is Shown That the Exiled Former President Was the Guiding Spirit In the Move to Seize President Gomez—Intercepted Letters Foiled Plots. Caracas (Special).—The government published a full statement concerning the recent conspiracy against.—President Vicente Gomez, in which it is stated that Cipriano Castro, the former president of Venezuela, who is now in exile in Europe, was the instigator of the plot. On July 29, the statement says, General Uribe informed the governor of Caracas that he had been approached by Carlos Gafaro, a Colombian, who asked him to join a plot for the capture of President Gomez. The plan was for the seizure to take place at Senor Gomez's farm in the suburbs of the capital, and the conspirators, armed with poignards in order to overcome any resistance, were to compel Senor Gomez to telephone orders to the governor and to Inspector General Galavis to surrender the garrison at Caracas. According to the statement meetings were held at Cipriano Castro's Villa Zola, Gen. Benjamin Ruiz, a Colombian, to the plot, and toronzo, to 20 other men, said to have been connected with it. Senor Nieves Castro de Parra, a sister of Cipriano Castro, the statement declares, guaranteed $30,000 to the consignors. The government, it is said, intercepted a letter from Celestino Castro, a brother of Cipriano, to his sister, which indicated his complicity in the plot, and also a circular by Romero Garcia, a follower of Cipriano Castro, saying that President Gomez had better carry his will in his pocket, as Castro would make his pay for his treachery with his blood. The statement concludes by saying that the Castro families have been expelled from Venezuela, that General Ruiz had escaped and that several others of the alleged plotters are under arrest. SHOOTS WIFE TO DEATH. Husband After Securing Shotgun Lies In Wait. Nyack, N. Y. (Special)—Edward Wegner, of Nanunt, shot and killed his wife with a shotgun and he was arrested during the day and held for the grand jury on a charge of murder by Justice Cooper, of Pearl River. Wegner and his wife were married 25 years ago, and have one son, 18. For several years past the home had been unhappy because of Wegner's hard drinking. For the last few months the couple have been separated. Mrs. Wegner and her son living together. The husband visited the farm, evidently for the purpose of killing his wife. He secreted himself behind a small building about 70 feet from the house, and when his wife came out to feed the chickens he raised his gun and fired. The woman fell dead. CHILD HACKED TO PIECES. Disappeared Last Friday, Believed He Was Kidnapped. Kingston, N. Y. (Special)—Peter, the four-year-old son of Frank Fabian, an Italian, disappeared from his home, at Porterville, a few miles north of Kingston, on Friday last. Hundreds of Italians searched for the boy until Wednesday morning, when his body was found cut to pieces alongside an outhouse on an adjoining neighbors' property. The father went to New York Sunday and consulted a fortune-teller, and when he returned Monday night the father said that the fortune-teller had told him that the boy would return within three days. The opinion now prevails that the boy was kidnapped, and when the kidnapper learned of what the fortune-teller had told the father he killed the child and placed the body where it was found. CURE WAS ALMOST FATAL Man Uses Chloroform to Relieve Neuralgia and Escapes Death. New York (Special)—Henry B. Lindsay, of Dallas, Texas, who is staying at the Hotel Knickerbocker, applied-chloroform to his face in an effort to cure neuralgia and narrowly escaped being killed by the fumes. He was found lying on the bed unconscious. Two physicians worked over him for an hour and finally managed to restore him to consciousness. He will recover. Lindsay is manager of the Southwestern Life Insurance Company, with headquarters at Dallas. Wanted: A Xylotomist. Washington, D. C. {Special}—The government is hunting for a xylotomist. A xylotomist is admitted by the forest officials to be a rarity and to find just one, capable of making microscopical studies of trees and their structure the Civil Service Commission will hold examinations in all principal cities of the country October 5.

KILLED SIX PEOPLE Locomotive Ploughs Through Pullman Sleeper. VICTIMS .ARE, UNABLE TO ESCAPE. Collision Took Plate Near Durand, Mich., Between Second and First Sections of the Boston and Montreal Express—The Sleeper "Nebraska" Is Set On Fire From Firebox of Engine and Burned—Five Passengers Were Injured and Eight Escaped. Durand, Mich. (Special).—Superintendent Ehrke, of the Grand Trunk, gave out a statement that six passengers were killed, five were injured and eight escaped without injury in the Grand Trunk rear collision, three miles east of here, when the Pullman Car Nebraska, on the eastbound train No. 14, was demolished and set on fire by the locomotive of passenger train No. 4. Superintendent Ehrke's statement says that the assertion that there were just 19 passengers on the wrecked car is born out by the train chart of Pullman Conductor Haynes and the list given out at Chicago by H. G. Elliott, first assistant general passenger agent of the Grand Trunk. The uninjured passengers, according to Superintendent Ehrke, who has charged of the wrecked car of the Detroit and St. Clair Rivers during the absence of Superintendent Egan, were checked up when the train started eastward after the wreck. The forward section, which was known as No. 14, had stopped because of an accident to the air brakes, and Engineer Mitchell; of the forward section, had crawled under his engine to locate this trouble. The locomotive of the second section, known as No. 4, plowed half way through the rear sleeper of the forward train, and the locomotive fire-box set fire to the Pullman car. The passengers the rear berths had no chance to escape, and those not killed by the crashing timbers as the locomotive forged through the sleeper were burned to death by the fire that followed. Half a dozen passengers, however, seriously injured, were rescued from the forward berths and taken to hospitals in Lurand and Flint. SMITH BY 3,476. Hoke Has 230 Votes to Gov. Brown's 188. Atlanta, 'Ga. (Special).—Complete returns from the Democratic" state primaries show that Hoke Smith will have 230 votes in convention against Governor Brown's 138. Smith's popular majority is 3,247 votes, the fall about 30,000" short of the total vote of two years ago, owing to the registration date being two months earlier. Other results were unchanged except that latest returns reversed the decision of prison commissioner, Robert E. Davison winning over G. R. Hutchens. JERSEY JAIL ROBBED. Thieves Steal Breakfast Intended for Prisoners. Morristown, N. J. (Special)—For the third time in two months the Morris County Courthouse has been broken open and the jail pantry raided. George Hill, janitor and cook, discovered the thieves had gotten away with 10 pounds of roast beef and a dozen loaves of bread which were to have been used for the breakfast of the prisoners. Entrance was effected through a basement window. DROWNED RESCUING GIRL. Grabs Man, About Neck When Boat Capsizes On Pond. Poughkeepsie, N. Y. (Special)—A sailboat containing a party of eight campers, capsized on Pinks Pond, 17 miles from this city, and two, of the party, Irving G. Paulding, an electrical engineer of New York, and Miss Bessie Drake, aged 19, of New Hamburg, were drowned. All of the young women in the boat, except Miss Drake and one of the men, caught hold of the overturned boat. Miss Drake went down and Paulding swam to her rescue. The young woman grabbed Paulding about the neck and both sank. YOUNG GIRL A BURGLAR. Fourteen-Year-Old's Effort to Become a Heroine. Newark, N. J. (Special)—Alice McLaughlin, 14 years old, unable to resist a desire to be a heroine, has confessed to having committed two "burglaries." While her aunt, with whom she lives, was away one day last week she surrendered the house and later told of having encountered a burglar, whom she drove away with a parasol. Today while her aunt was again away she repeated the little drama and told the same story. After severe questioning by the police she confessed all. YOUTHFUL MAIL ROBBER. Twelve-Year-Old_Confesses to Detective Who Arrested Him. Nelson, Neb. (Special)—A government agent arrested William Moody, aged 12, charging him with robbing the mails. The broke down and confessed, 'after which he, took the officer to a cave where he had searched nearly a bushel of letters, $2,900 in cash and several hundred dollars in drafts. Reported That Forest Fires Are Not So Violent. Sixty-five Men Reach Spokane and State That Fifteen Austrians and Two American, Choppers Were Burned to Death Last Saturday On Big Creek, Idaho—Many Rangers and Forest Fighters Are Still Missing. Spokane, Was. (Special).—Following is the revised tabulation of the dead in the Northwestern forest fires: United States fire fighters in and near Idaho. 80. Montana deaths, including Bullion Mine, 13. At Newport, Wash., 3. At Wallace, Idaho;-4. Near Avery, Idaho, probably settlers, 47. At MuHan, Idaho, 2. This gives a total of 303 dead, but it is probable that some of those listed by places may duplicate those listed as fire fighters. But as many are still missing the total dead will probably total more than 200 when the record is completed. The fires are not so violent, and it is believed that the worst is over. Sixty-five men arrived in Spokane from Big Creek and said that 15 Austrians and 2 American choppers were burned to death. Thirty Italians had already been reported dead near that point. The Austrians were undertaking to backfire, but their work was so unsuccessful that they were killed by the fire they themselves had just lighted. It flew back on them and drove them against a line of flame advancing from the opposite direction. . CONTINENTAL UNITED STATES. Expected to Show 90,000,000 In Population. Washington, D. C. (Special)—The total population of the United States and island possessions may reach 190,000,000, according to unofficial estimates made by Director of the Census Durand. When the figures are completed, about November, Mr. Durand expects to see the total for the states show about 80,000,000. It may run up to 91,000,000, but this now appears improbable. The statistical estimate places the figure at 90,000,000, but it is considered sure that will be true. With the students of the Philippine and other islands it is possible, that the total will round out the century of millions. "That's not such a big number," said a census employee, "if you stop to think that John D. Rockefeller could give every man, woman and child $10 each and then have some change to put in the Sunday school plate." It is estimated that from 1900 to 1907 this country gained about 4,292,000 by immigration. About 30 per cent. of immigrants in those years returned to their native lands. From 1907 to 1910 records of returning immigrants were kept, and show that of the 2,576,000 who entered this country 790,875 returned. The total increase in ten years from immigration is estimated at 6,000,000. MISS ELKINS AND THE DUKE. Italian Dispatches Say the Wedding Will 'Take Place Soon. Paris (Special).—Special dispatches from Italy insist that the marriage of Miss Katherine Elkins to the Duke of Abruzzi, in spite of all denials, has been decided upon and that Senator Elkins and the affianced couple will soon arrive in Paris to arrange the details of the wedding. Both the Queen Mother of Italy and King Victor Emmanuel have, according to these reports, given their consent to the wedding. Washington, D. C. (Special).—The latest report concerning the romance of Miss Katherine Elkins and the Duke of the Abruzzi was read by Senator Elkins, who was reached by long-distance telephone at Elkins, W. Va. He said: "I am going to remain in West Virginia for the next six months, and have no intention of going abroad. I know nothing of the Paris report, and don't want to be bothered any more about the matter." CLIMBS PIKE'S PEAK. Woman, Aged 70, Only Little Tired After Feat. Colorado Springs, Col. (Special)—Mrs. Mary Powell, of Philadelphia, 70 years old, has walked from Manitou to the top of Pike's Peak and back, returning to Manitou. Mrs. Powell, who is visiting Manitou, is an experienced pedestrian. On returning from her trip to the peak, which many strong, young men would shun, Mrs. Powell said, "I'm a little tired from my walk." She started out Wednesday morning, reaching the summit before dark and returned by moonlight. Would Drop Old Glory. Harrisburg, Pa. (Special)—Asking to be registered as the candidate of the "Jesus Christ Party" for governor, a man from a southwestern county whose name is not disclosed sent a communication to the State Department. In his platform he declares for the substitution of the cross for the Stars and Stripes, prohibition of the religious exceptions, Christian prohibition of group-likelike use of group, substituting a flat 5 per cent. assessment on all possessions for other forms of taxation, and permitting women to vote. RULES BY GOD'S GRACE SAYS EMPEROR WILLIAM Declares Independence of Parliaments and Assemblies. AGAINST VOTES FOR THE WOMEN. Martial and Militant Address By the Emperor at the Provincial Banquet at Koeningsberg—Doctrine of the Divine Right of Kings Is Sharply Set Forth By Him—He quotes the Words of His Grandfather William I, In Regard to the Crown. Berlin (Special)—The speech delivered by Emperor William of Germany before the provincial banquet at Koenigsburg, in which he reiterated and emphasized his belief in the divine mandate by which he rules, referred to the Prussian crown as bestowed by God's grace and not by parliaments or people's assemblies, and laid a lance against the present movement for women suffrage, is the political sensation of the hour. The leading organs of the German press devote extended comment to it, generally criticizing the Emperor's utterances, and there are indications that the discourse will have a deep political effect upon the country, nearly all of the Berlin papers discussing the subject in connection with the political crisis of November, 1908, when the publication by the London Daily Telegraph of an interview with the Emperor aroused a storm against the uncontrolled public speaking of the Emperor. The serious Vossische Zeitung, the Tageblatt, the Post and other papers point out the constitutional character of the Kingdom of Prussia in the empire, and inquire_whether the chancellor, Dr. Von Bethmann-Hollweg, was privy to the Emperer's purpose in delivering such a speech. They predict that it will lead to a renewed discussion of the Emperor's constitutional position when the Reickstar reassembles in November. The strongly monarchist Tagliche Rundschau, the favorite journal of army officers, says: "This speech means a storm. . . . Never before has Emperor William set into such clear relief his romantic, medieval idea of his non-responsibility to man's judgment, of his not being bound by the constitutional co-operation of the people and of ruling by God's free grace against all those convictions and feelings which today determine our existence as a state. "Why," asks the Tageliche Rundschau, "should the Emperor choose this moment to emphasize his ruling by God's grace when a woman reigns when it will provide an anti-monarchical agitation and good monarchists be thrown into a condition of tragic disruption?" $ ^{a} $ The organ of the landed nobility, The Deutsche Tages Zietung, thoroughly approves of the declarations of the Emperor. The Local Anzeiger lays stress upon the desire of the Emperor that the people co-operate with him, and points out that the Emperor delivered the speech in the castle where the Prussian kings were formerly crowned. He said in the same hall in May, 1800: "We Hohenbolzlers take our crown from heaven alone," and in the same place on September 6, 1894, he quoted the words of his grandfather—William I—about ruling by divine right, and added: "So, too, do I take my kingdom by God's grace." The Tagelblatt affirms that although prices did not fall on the exchange, trading slackened, and brokers apprehend an unfavorable influence of the speech upon markets at home and abroad. MINISTER FALLS TO DEATH. Father of William Stearns Davis Tumbles Off Ledge. Mount Washington, Mass. (Special)—Rev. Dr. William Wall Wilson Davis, prominent Congregational minister of Pittsfield and father of William Stearns Davis, the author, was killed by falling over a ledge at Bash Bish Falls, one mile from the New York State line. Rev. Dr. Davis was formerly stationed at Cleveland, O., and Worcester, Mass. Accompanied by his daughter, Miss Fannie Stearns Davis, and his two sons, William and Harold, the clergyman was having an outing at Bash Bish Falls. While the other members of the family were a little distance away, Dr. Davis undertook to harness a pair of horses to his carriage. As he was swinging the carriage around, one of the wheels struck him and pushed him over the ledge. He fell 20 feet to the bottom, striking on his head and breaking his neck. Dr. Davis was born in Western New York, 57 years ago. His wife, who was a daughter of the late President Stearns, of Amherst College, died about two years ago. NEW METHOD OR WARFARE. Submarine Invented to Pull Battleship to Bottom of Sea. Washington (Special)—In the intervals between the transaction of such business as preparation of his annual estimates, writing of his annual report and supervising relief from the army to the forest fires in the Northwest, Gen. Leonard Wood, chief of staff of the Army, has had his attention called to a novel method of naval warfare. An inventor sent to his office designs of a gigantic submarine construction, capable of approaching a feet under water, at the psychological moment flapping a huge wing over the unsuspecting battleship, dragging it down to the bottom of the ocean and holding the vessel there until its crew was "drowned." General Wood has forwarded the plan to the Navy Department. Again, the time draws near when historic old Beach will fling wide its doors. When the merry voices of gleeful lads and lasses will be heard about its boundaries. When the return of teachers, absent for months, will lighten the hearts and reinhaben the hopes of both youth and age, who are interested in the progress of the grand old school, and in the perpetuity of the principles for which it has always stood. We will welcome the teachers back again—one and all. We will hark with delight to the noise of hammer and lathe, of buzz-saw and plane. We would welcome, again the merry clatter of the cleanly and comely lassies who, by the orders of the instructors ply the needle and turn the griddle. We would inhale again, the savory odors which arise from "sample dainties" prepared in a model kiltenen by "little brown hands." We would again taste them. In the midst of the schools of our fair city and vicinity, Beach institute stands out pre-eminent, the greatest. Its influence is not alone confined to the city and state, but it is national in scope and power, because its products may be found in every quarter of the union dispensing the wholesome instruction received within her walls. Being a product, herself of a stormy period, her history is entwined about the history of the state as a formidable factor of reconstruction. She has moved slowly but surely along upon every tidal wave of progress that has given zest to the state and nation, modulating its effort and aim to the popular idea of progressing education, so that it is not to be wondered at, that when the industrial education idea covered the state, Beach institute was not asleep to its beneficence. Alert to popular demands, the industrial idea was studied out, and after arduous labor and tireless effort, adopted and instituted by Professor Weld, who is in charge of affairs, ably assisted by an experienced and competent aide in the person of Professor Walters, the industrial department of Beach has developed commensurate to the splendid advance of the literary department. Under the management of Professor Weld the standard of the school has been raised. Though two years have been added to the higher course, the advantage is with the students. For, in pursuing the studies incident to their additional years, those students who shall seek further advancement in other schools or colleges, will find that the advantage will come to them, then and there. They will find then, by a comparison of expenses incurred during the additional years spent at Beach, with the expenses which will necessarily be incussed away from home, that the lengthening of the term at Beach was really an economic one, advantageous, alike, to the school and to the patrons thereof. Beach Institute is the people's school and should be so considered by every Negro of the community. And as such we should all know it, know its teachers, their manners and methods, their relation to the students, the students to them. Our encouragement should go to them, unsolicited as evidenced by our interest in the progress of the school. And since it is the people's school the people should visit it. They should individually know of the splendid instalment of machinery; of the elegantly furnished and beautifully arranged rooms for instruction in the domestic arts, carpentry in its various gulses. The people should see their children in operation in all of the recitation rooms from "Dan to Bethsheba and back to Dan." Then will they know of the splendid methods through the channels of which their children are being pressed preparatory for future usefulness. We sincerely hope that during the next term of this famous institution, every man and woman of the community will visit this school and pay their respects to their children and to those who are laboring for their uplift. It appears to me that it would not be a bad policy if the principal of Beach should prepare a registrar for the purpose of keeping a record of each visitor who came to the school during the term. The number of names recorded would tell an interesting story. The innovation, I believe, would serve its purpose at a minimum expense. A Wife's influence. Lookers on often see the wonderful influence a wife can exert for the good or failure of her husband. By a gracious, genial manner she may win hosts of friends for him. In nearly every walk of life where he has to look to the generous public for a livelihood, she can help him; make the yoke easier, and the burden lighter, says Woman's Life. A powerful factor in the world of business today is found in the influence of woman. To middle age, when we have attained to being what we Negroes call "settled people," no lessons are more delightful than those derived from youth. And after any slight foreign experiences, how ready youth is to teach, how sure of acquirements, judgment, and taste! At this season of the year the young return from their educational institutions to spend the holidays instructing their parents, and they return full of faith in their mission. How wonderfully decorative they are, too! It is one of nature's nicest adjustments that youth should be beautiful enough to make good all its deficiencies in sense and reason, while age makes good the withered textures and faded colors by a philosophic temper and a sense of humor. Yes; youth treads the earth proudly as one who masters environment, and instinctively, we, who have lived and failed much, fall into the background conscious of being tarnished with overwork. We listen awe-struck while they explain world tendencies to us. They look upon us with a certain tender pity, and wonder what interests life can possibly have to offer one who has reached the deceptive limit of forty-five. Despite this seeming absorption in themselves, these young folk have hardly imagination enough to understand that they themselves supply a reason for being. They can hardly understand that we are as deeply interested in what they do and have undone as once we were in our own activities. A young girl who was solicitous as to her mother's power of enduring existence with gray hair and faded charms was much taken back by this view of the matter; and when her mother assured her that she took more vital interest in her daughter's career than she had ever done in her own because of the ampler experience years had given, the child was quite overawed, but for her own part she hoped to die at thirty because by that time everything interesting would have happened.

A. A. Virgil, the colored pastor of the Warren A. M. E. Church in Pittsburg, Pa. "I believe the members of my race have gone far enough in their jubilant spree over the victory at Reno," he said. "Too much Johnson has made us mad. The Negro is still a missionary people and will be for many years to come. Consider that it took the white race two thousand years to get where it is and it is still far from perfection. We have harder battles to fight than those of the prize ring. Let the sober mental sides of our natures get a proper hearing. There has been absolutely too much Johnson on our lips and perhaps in our hearts." Huppar One Not In the Bible. "We were invited to dinner the other evening, my wife and I," said a Staten Island preacher, "by some people who had just moved into the parish. Inadvertently my wife had allowed the maid to go out that day, which involved the consideration of my boy, who is just five years old. My wife, telephoned, asking if it would be agreeable to bring the youngster. Of course, the new parishoner replied that they would be delighted. So we went. He Had It.

Little Dorothy not only liked her tea and coffee to have the appearance of being "really and truly," but she also liked the taste and flavor of each, says the New York Times. One afternoon her mother took her to a friend's home where tea was served at 5 o'clock. The hostess gave to Dorothy what she usually gave to her own children—of Dorothy's age—in the line of liquid refreshment, viz., hot water, sugar and milk. Dorothy tasted her's politely and ate her little cakes. "Why, Dorothy, you aren't drinking your tea, dear. Isn't it sweet enough?" asked the hostess. "Yes, Mrs. C., it's sweet enough," replied the child. "Then why aren't you taking it?" "It's too dull." she replied. Oh! These Servants. Mr. Browne: My daughter is to be married on Friday of next week and I'd— Mandy Lane: Yo' all will have to have dat some other day, cos' Friday am mah afternoon off. "At dinner I was asked to say grace, and not satisfied with this the family began to repeat in turn a passage of Scripture. The brevity of the beautitudes seemed to make the most popular appeal and when by boy's turn came I saw a twinkle in his eye, but was scarcely prepared for what followed. With a look of extreme plety he folded his hands and exclaimed: "Blessed are those who sit on a tack, for they shall rise again!"—New York Sun. Dr. Simon Flexner the chief of the Rockefeller institute, referred, at a dinner in Philadelphia, to the increasing number of clean shaven doctors, says the New York Tribune. "It is cleaner, safer to be cleanshaven," he said. "Certainly as far as physicians are concerned, there was more truth than poetry in the dialogue of the two little boys on the street corner. "Don't you hate to have your face washed?" said the first little boy. "Oh, don't I, though!" the other answered. "You bet, when I grow up, I'll wear full whiskers." Catcher Bill Bergen of the Brooklyn club sprung a new one at Cincinnati. When Bill walked into the catcher's box he carried with him three immense catching gloves. Two were placed on the ground near the plate and the third adorned his left hand. This glove was worn until a Cincinnati player reached first and then discarded in favor of one of the other gloves. If a pitched ball happened to bounce out of this glove, Bill dropped it and used glove No. 3. Bill explained that gloves Nos. 2 and 3 made it easier for him; him steal. POETRY OR AND BY OUR PEOPLE THE OLD BLACK MAMMY. 'Tis easy to wander off from my theme When travelling over the ground; Thro' evergreen pastures across the bright stream When in fancy I wander around, And see in the picture which never grows older. Tho' age chills the blood which never grows colder. In fancy I see those good Negroes again And sung as they chopped with the hoe: I can never forget, wherever I roam. The scenes of my childhood, and home. The dear old black mammy, so gentle and tender. So, faithful and true to her trust I loved her so well I dared not of fend her. She is gone, yet I honor her dust From the wells of my heart arise tears of regret. The' she sleeps 'neath the sod, I can never forget. She was lovely to me in her colored baudanna With which she' turbaned her head; Her songs were far sweeter than flute or piano, As she put me to sleep in my bed. Her soft crooning voice I can never forget. Like an angels, in dreams, she comes to me yet. to me yet. —From Senator Gordon's farewell speech in the United States Senate. THE SERPENT. Defeat has served to make many a man What half the pressing world were broke to see him be, Who, when he spurned to gam the higher sand, Like some loathed viper, lowest yet to see— To fight the guest of omnipresence To fight the guest of omnipresence, hissed; But seeing from his lowly, narrow dēn His own vile, cursed purpose missed, His brow with cruel hate or spreaded grin Is set. For as some game pacer in the ring, He views the envied victor mounted high. Who, from his lofty height, to the serpent sings A triumph. The poisonous viper, doomed to die. From stifling smoke of scorching deed, Turns to breathe, his last earthly existence low. Where track and paths of only hisses lead— And dies or lingers long in dark and ashy cell, From which next step takes hold much in that fashioned way. A grind in everlasting, grasping Hell, Where, all repair, he starts anew, another wretched day. Adeline Gertrude May, in Colored People's Magazine.

Children Will Buy Home of Uncle Remus "Where is the home of Uncle Remus?" is a question often asked by visitors to Atlanta. Ever since the death of Joel Chandler Harris, on July 3, 1908, his home is a modest cottage in West End, a suburb of Atlanta—has been the mecca of hundreds who know his tales and who count it a privilege to breathe the air and to saunter over the premises of "Snap Bean Farm." The very name of the place is typical of Uncle Remus. Who but Joel Chandler Harris, with his love for the simple and the unostentatious, would have thought of the wholesome, intimate title for the few acres that surround the low, wide-verandaed cottage? And the house itself is called "The Sign of the Wren's Nest," because, year after year, a pair of wrens built their home in the mall box that hung at the gate. Brer Fox and Sis Cow and Sis The creater of Br'er Rabbit" and Meadows and De Gals," had won for himself the love of millions. Especially was he loved by the children. The child who has not heard of the tale of "Br'er Rabbit and Tar Baby" or the story of "How Br'er Bear Lost His Tail," has indeed missed a part of the heritage of childhood. For him, the animals have no meaning. If his childish imagination has not been stimulated by Uncle Remus' stories of the wild folk of field and forset, he will have little understanding or sympathy for the four-footed tribes. A short time after the death of Mr. Haryis an Uncle Remus Memorial association" was organized. The movement was started by ex-Mayor Joyner of Atlanta and was taken up by prominent club women. Mrs. A. McD. Wilson is president of the association, and President Taft, ex-President Roosevelt and Mr. Carnegle are among the honorary vice presidents. The object of the association is to purchase the home of Uncle Remus from the Harris heirs and make a memorial of it. The property is assessed at $25,000, and, as soon at it became known that the Uncle Remus Memorial association could buy the property, several rich men offered to give the entire amount, but since Uncle Remus had been, beloved by many, it was thought best that many be allowed to help in the purchasing of "Snap Bean Farm." From all over the civilized world letters approving the plan of the association poured in. Mr. Carnegie gave a check for $5,000, Julia Ward Howe and other American writers expressed their hearty sympathy with the work, and from children all over the country came countless small donations. The association plans to install a library in part of the house, to preserve memorial rooms where Mr. Harris lived and worked, and to convert the grounds into a playground for children. It has also been suggested that a free kindergarten be conducted in the house. Upon the lawn a fountain will be placed, reproducing the well-known four-footed characters of his stories in bronze or marble. Work of the Uncle Remus Memorial association is not purely local. The officers are endeavoring to make the movement international. They wish all who have enjoyed the Uncle Remus stories to have a hand. The stories of the escapades of Brer Rabbit have been translated into seventeen languages, and the memorial association proposes to give the children of every land an opportunity to help. In all lands, the homes of men of genius have been preserved, and it is eminently fitting that the home of Mr. Harris, who understood and loved children, should echo through the The big-hearted man with the small bank account rises heads above the mean man who has nothing to do but cut coupons. Mr. A—Where did a hen's egg come from? Mr. B—From the hen, of course. Mr. $^5$ A—Where did the hen come from? Mr. B—From thio egg. Mr. A—Who came here first?

A linguistic genius is one who keeps angry silence, with the knowledge of a half dozen languages to help him express his feelings. coming years with the shouts of children. The fact that Theodore Roosevelt has accepted an invitation given him by Mrs. A. McD. Wilson, president of the Uncle Remus Memorial association, at visit Atlanta next October and make an address for the benefit of the association, proves the interest that the ex-president and the general public take in the work of purchasing the Harris home. Of the many invitations for addresses received, and necessarily refused by Mr. Roosevelt, this one was accepted by him while in Paris recently. While in Atlanta next fall Mr. Roosevelt will be the guest of the memorial association, not of the city of Atlanta, Mr. Harris left little in the way of wealth. His legacy was one of kindly philosophy and love. But many a vagrant newsboy knew his cryptic philanthropy, many a needy co-worker had been tided over the occasional cataract of life by him, many an old Georgia Negro revered the name of "Marse Harris." So long as there are little children to hear of Br'er Rabbit, so long will Uncle Remus be remembered and loved. The rabbit will hide As he always hid, And the fox will do As he always did. But who will tell us What they say Since Uncle Remus Has passed away? EX-HUSBAND'S RIGHTS. "Once a woman is married to a man, that man always has some claim upon her, even if she has a divorce. When a woman is married she never can be absolutely free again. Courts can separate them, but in the sight of a law higher than man-made law, in the opinion of all well-meaning persons, the husband still has a claim on the woman who was once his wife." Judge Ralph Latshaw of the Kansas City Criminal court so declared recently when he reversed a decision of the Municipal court which held Dr. Milo E. Hartman guilty of an attack on his former wife. Hartman had been fined $500 in the Municipal court on a charge of having accosted his wife in a dry goods store. When Mrs. Hartman had finished her testimony the court told the defense there was no necessity for them to introduce any evidence. "Hartman had a right to come up and speak to his former wife and even take her by the arm," he said. "As long as he did not abuse her or swear at her he committed no offense. He had a perfect right to regard himself as a privileged person in his dealings with the woman who had once been his wife. I don't see how any court ever imposed a fine of $500 on a man for speaking to a woman who had once been his wife." NEWS OF THE DAY. Pah-Pah-Thep-Peah and Wah-Ah-Che-Thet, two Kickapoo Indians, were in court at Oklahoma City on the charge of stealing a fat pig from a farmer near Harrah. The defendants were accompanied by their squaws, who, among other things, wore new, tight, bright, oxblood oxforda, with high pinnacled heels. As the trial dragged on the shoes: began to pinch, whereupon the squaws sat down upon the floor, pulled off their shoes, rolled over on their blankets and calmly fell asleep.

The lower house of the Prussian diet, after vigorous debate, recently voted down a resolution to permit cremation in Prussia. The main argument against the measure was that burial was an ancient Christian tradition authorized by Christ and his apostles of the early church, and that if cremation were introduced a serious blow would be struck against the Christian doctrine of the resurrection of the body. In favor of cremation it was urged that graveyards were unhygienic and unaesthetic, and opposed to modern conditions.

With sadness we chronicle the death of one of Darion's well-known citizens, Mrs. Lizzie D Lewis. For a year and seven months her health had been impaired but it was only two weeks ago when she was taken to her bed, and death came at 11:45 am on Friday August 26th. She was very useful in church and Sunday school work and always took delight in any act of charity. She was a consistent member of Grant's Presbyterian Church and a charter member of Alpine Court of Calanthe No. 87.

Envy—A Disturbing Factor in Negro's Progress Since his emancipation, the Negro has made the world sit up, and take notice of his unparalleled pace in the race of life. In fact, the Negro has served notice on the world that he must be reckoned with in the great Marathon race of modern civilization. Though heavily handicapped by carrying top weight, in many instances the Negro has come down the last lap and cross the wire winning by a nose. In the parlance of slang, there has been "some class" to the kind of progress he has made. The world must applaud and does applaud us for the record which we have made. Now, the Negro is but a child race, and as such, has very many faults which time and intelligence must eradicate. We cannot expect to be perfect all at once; but we all ought to be willing to do our best towards bringing the race up to a high standard. The time is now ripe for him to get rid of the biggest obstacle met with in the road which leads to success. Standing out in bold relief, blocking the progress of many a Negro, shattering the hopes of many others, and causing the down fall of many more, is Mr. Envy—monarch of all his surveys. It is high time for us to get rid of this obstacle, kick him out of the way, and if we cannot help, let us not hinder the onward march of another. Call the name of any Negro, and at once, you can hear the noise of the knockers beating their hammers upon the anvil of envy and jealousy. Say Booker Washington, and at once, the knockers get busy. Because they and Washington do not agree on some points, they have no use for him. It is actually disgusting to see to what extent some knockers have gone in their criticism of Washington. Say DuBois, and another set of knockers come forth with abuse and vituperation. Because they cannot agree with him on a few points, they are ready to wield their hammers. No one man possesses all the characteristics which men admire. It is human to err, therefore, how much better would it be to encourage one another than to try to knock "the block" off of one another. Because we do not like all of Shakespeare's plays, are we to say, we will have none of them? No, we take the part we like, and we do not care a continental about the other part. Let us encourage our men to do our utmost, cease to be envious of any record which different ones may make, get behind and push them up when we see them striving to go forward, and cease from swinging our hammers so recklessly on the least difference of opinion. Why, right here in Chatham County there are men who have done remarkably well, and yet who could do much more if given the right encouragement. We need to learn the lesson that no man has a corner on all the things for which mankind strives. The man who makes a living "chasing the dollars," may be and generally is thoroughly posted on money matters, but he is not an authority on the latest scientific inventions. The school teacher may be an authority in matters pertaining to school, and is able to give the banker all kinds of points about current events, etc. The banker ought not be envious of the school teacher's store of information nor should the teacher be envious of the banker's store of "long green." The trouble is that some men want to be the whole show—a thing which is impossible. No one man can have the most money, the best education, be the best writer, the best speaker, the most influential in the community, the most popular, in short, no one man can be the "whole cheese." Let us get rid of Mr. Envy and then encourage the business man to make more money, the doctor to become more skillful, the teacher to be more thorough, the preacher to be more upright, the laborer to be more thrifty and economical, and the people as a whole to get together for it is just as true today as of old that "in union there is strength." A Progressive Company And Its Efficient General SuperIntendent superintendent The company that you will eventually join, that is if you are seeking the best, is the old reliable Pilgrim Health and Life Insurance company of Augusta. The first company of its kind to organize and secure a chartter to do business along the industrial line, among colored people. This company was the first to organize, first in the hearts of the people, first to extend the hand of protection to all humanity, therefore the very name, Pilgrim inspires confidence. A policy with the Pilgrim means two sisters, Mrs. Maggie McCleennon of this city and Mrs. Clara Coleman of Darien and several other relatives to mourn for her. Her funeral was conducted on Saturday at 3 o'clock from her church attended by the Court, of Calanthe. Interment in the Upper Mills Cemetery. The floral tributes tested her popularity.

After singing, prayer was offered and then song No. 39 was sung. With a few well chosen words by Mr. Sherman, the president, the meeting was announced open. After reading many bible verses the topic was considered, the topic being "The Progress of Christ's Kingdom this year in Asia" Matt. 13:31-33. The discussion was led by Mrs. Reed. The many speakers discussed the many interesting indeed, including Mr. Humes, Singleton and others. Rev. Singleton made Singleton Koreans joining hands with the Joes of Asia, and is a deeply scientific and religious people and that they have been the means of being done for the upbuilding of Christ's kingdom this year. protection. So true has this company been to its trust, so prompt has she complied with her broad and liberal policy contract, that the many hundreds and thousands who are members, and who are constantly being made to feel glad when the Pilgrim's pay-master rides up to their door, styles the company-as the Power House of success. What has made the Pilgrim great will make anybody great, promptness, honesty, and justice which is the motto of the company. and plans are now laid whereby it is said that all nations shall within the next ten years secure the gospel, etc. A collection was raised and the meeting adjourned to meet Sept. 25th at Galnes Chapel A M E Church, on Magnolia St. "Up and Down Broadway" Music William Jerome and Jean Schwartz have written a clever song for the new musical comedy, "Up and Down Broadway," which is making such a hit at Shubert's Casino.

Rev Singleton's discourse at eleven o'clock was from Phillipian 4-8 "Finally brethren whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are true." Subject "The wisdom of harmonizing our thoughts" If our people would live to that great subject as discussed it would go a long way in bettering our lives and lives of others. At eight o'clock Rev Singleton delivered a special sermon to the Grosse Ald and Social Club. After hearing such a sermon and the words of encouragement from the speaker it only made the members feel that they should double their energy to do more for the welfare of their organization. In view of next Monday Sept. 5th is Labor Day, Rev Singleton will preach a special sermon on the dignity of labor of the hands and head. The Union League meeting of the Allen Christian Senderover was held at St Philips on last Sunday. Reverend R.

FAB Church A very representative gathering greeted both services at the First African Baptist Church on last Sunday, at which the Rev. J H May D. M., former pastor of the Second Baptist Church this city, preached his last two sermons before leaving the city for the north, thence the west where he expects to reside. His text at the 11 o'clock service was from St. Matthews 7:25, and at the 8:30 o'clock service from St. Mark 5:0. Both sermons were impressive and filled with gospel and truth and delivered with much force. All present gave evidence of having richly enjoyed both sermons, for at the conclusion of each they thronged to the pulpit to shake parting hands, and extend their best wishes in his behalf. In words, that expressed all that the human tie of true friendship could possess, each deacon expressed himself, which collectively bespoke the sentiments of the church. In response to Dr. May's request for the highest esteem for the F A B· Church whose recognition, he said is world-wide, as the mother church. He also expressed the warmth of friendship he had for the church whose pastate he lastly resigned. The church is now undergoing a needed roof repairing and a little interior beautifying, for which a rally has been planned by the pastor and officers on the second Sunday in this month. Each member is asked to give $t$, for this seed ed purpose. The pulpit will be filled on to-morrow by the pastor, Rev. W L Jones on his return from a month's vacation.

Hoodwinking Mrs. Herman Oelrichs, the best-dressed woman in Newport, crillicized very pertinently, at a recent dinner, the new dinner gowns of Paquln and Callot. These clinging and filmy gowns are chiefly remarkable for the V-shaped back that they possess. The V—it is incredible, but it is true—opens all the Divining Rod 200 Years Old. Winslow W. Fifield of Medford, Mass, owns a metallic divining rod brought from England more than two hundred years ago by one of his ancestors. The rod, says Mr. Fifield, has been used successfully all over New England and in the western mining districts. It is attached to whalebone handles 12 inches long and weighs two ounces. The handles have inscriptions on them which are almost obliterated by age. The person who brought the rod to America was Isaac Greenleaf, who settled in Massachusetts. The rod became famous, as a finder of water. After marking the place of many springs the rod was used in California, Colorado and North Carolina for locating by men in quest of gold mines and other metals. One person who used it with par- When a small clique of men put up a scheme to harness the cieger of America and induce the ministers to, in turn "bitch up" the members of the churches, we should all take notice. They couldn't harness the preachers in a bad cause except by deceiving them. Ministers of the gospel are essentially and fundamentally honest but, like all men who work for the public good, they are at times mislead by false statements. Trust them when they have exact truth to speak from. Now for the story which should interest every one for we are all either receivers of wages or we pay to wage earners and the freedom of each individual is at issue. In various papers the following statement has been printed. Read it carefully at least twice. "Interest in Labor Sunday. "Labor Sunday—the Sunday preceding Labor day—will be observed generally this year and in future years throughout the United States. This because of the American Federation of Labor declaration for the observance of that day. The numerous letters recently received at American Federation of Labor headquarters from ministers is an assurance that interest in the idea of giving special attention to the cause of labor from the pulpit one day in the twelve months is widespread. Our readers are urged to try to bring about an understanding in their respective districts with representatives of the church so that ministers may address that may attract trade unions to the churches large numbers for the day. Ministers should say what they think on the occasion in order that their trade union hearers may put the right estimate as to where the church stands on the question of the organization of labor. The more the subject is discussed the better will it be for labor. Union ethics are sound. American Federationist." Observe that "Labor Union" men "are urged" to induce ministers to make addresses that will attract trade unionists to the churches "for the day." "Minsters should say," etc., and winds up with "Union ethics are sound;" observe the hidden threat. This is clipped from the American Federationist the organ of Sam Gompers, et al. This clipping has been sent to papers throughout the country and the Typographical Union men in the newspaper offices instructed to "urge" that it be printed. That is one of the ways of the "machine." It looks harmless so the papers print it. Butt Let's lift the cover and look under. The hidden motive is as dangerous to the peace and liberty of the citizens as a coiled rattlesnake in the grass. Organization by workmen to peacefully and successfully present their slide is necessary and most commendable. There are such organization now rapidly winning their way to public confidence without strikes, dynamite or killing fellow workmen. (Some facts on this matter a little further along in this article.) We see here a demand on the ministers of God, that they endorse and help build up the strike-producing, boycoting and violent American Federation of Labor. Think of the man of the man who teaches brotherly love being coverly ordered to praise and help get new members. for an organization with a record for violence, crime and murder done by its members the like of which the world has never seen. Think of the thousands of women made widows and the increasing thousands of children left fatherless by the plato, club, dynamite and boot heel of members of this Labor Trust. Any one who recalls the business murders done in the multitude of strikes in the past few years will agree that no exaggeration. Take just one as an illustration: There were some thirty men murdered and over 5000 brushed—and maimed in the Chicago teamster's strike. Clergymen way down to the waist line. At n gula performance in Paris given by the Metropolitan Opera company of New York—the most successful performance Paris ever saw, and one whereat $40,000. was gained for the Pluviose victims—many of the beautiful Americans in the $40 orchestra seats wore these daring gowns, and now at Newport they are often to be seen. Mrs. Oelrich stared at one with astounded eyes at a dinner, and her neighbor said: "Isn't that new gown of Mrs. Blank's a dream? Old Mr. Blank is so derticular success was a blind man, in whose hands the rod is said to have done marvels. A Strong Preacher. The minister's eight-year-old daughter was returning with her parents from church, where the district superintendent had that morning occupied the pulpit. "Oh, father," asked the little girl, her face alive with enthusiasm, "don't you think Brother C. is a very strong preacher? I do." Gratified by this evidence of unusual intelligence on the part of his offspring, the minister eagerly inquired into her reasons for her statement. "Oh," replied the little miss, artlessly, "didn't you see how the dust rose when he stamped his feet?"—Judge. There is seldom a day passes but somewhere in our country from one to a score of our fellow men are assaulted or murdered by members of this band. Then remember the homes blown up or burned. The families hounded, the rioting, burning of street cars, wrecking of trains and attempted or successful killing of passengers. The general disturbance of industry and the thousands of dollars forced from tax payers to pay extra police, sheriffs and militia to protect, even in a feeble way, the citizens from the mobs of members of the American Federation of Labor. Then you will realize why the great peace-loving majority of over 80 million Americans protest against the growth of this crime-tainted organization comprising perhaps one and one-half million men, of which it is estimated at least seven-tenths are peace-loving citizens and are members by coercion and are not in sympathy with the three-tenths who have gained control and force their methods. We find that a few designing men have seized control of the American Federation of Labor, just as some shrewd capitalists have secured control of some railroads and other interests and are now twisting and turning them into machines for personal profit and fame. These men cunningly plan to force workmen to join and pay 25 to 75 cents a month in fees. Various methods are used to "induce" workmen to join. First, they talk of the "tyranny of capital" making slaves of workmen. capital" making slaves of workmen. Then they work up enthusiasm about the "brotherhood of man" and other talk which 'experience has shown excites the emotions of workmen and they are induced to join and pay fees to the leaders. The 5000 workmen in Battle Creek are, as a rule, free from the dictates of the great Labor Trust and still get the highest wages in Michigan. If they had yielded to the smooth talk of the agents of the trust and joined, they would pay in fees from $1250.00 to $2000.00 a month to the big trust and be subject to strike. orders any time. Now they save that and put the money into homes and family comforts. But the managers of the American Federation of Labor have worked hard and long to harness them. The trust has sent small bales of money and last winter 18 "organizers" to tie up Battle Creek. They hired halls, gave picture shows, smokers, etc., as an investment, looking to rich returns when they succeeded in having them tied hand and foot. But they failed and the last of these "organizers" left Battle Creek on May 17 saying "it's no use." The workmen knew the record of this great trust and formed their own association to protect their rights and also to protect them from the big Labor Trust. In Philadelphia some 4000 independent street car men, who mainly had families, had their own union and refused to join the big trust, preferring to be free to work or not as they pleased. But the trust planned to force them into the fee-paying ranks, so a strike was ordered to compel the traction company to kick out these men and hire only Labor Trust members. It was not a question of wages or hours but to push the free men out of their positions where they were earning good money to support their families. The strike was ordered, not to raise wages or reduce hours, remember, but solely to throw out members of an independent union and make places only for Labor Trust members, and thus show the independent men they could not earn a living unless they first paid fees to the trust managers. Incidentally the people of Philadelphia must submit to no car service, rioting and bloodshed with millions in losses while these fee-hunting, notoriously seeking trust leaders were teaching the world that industry cannot be carried on except by workmen, who first bend the knee, bow the head and pay fees. How these men as strike leaders love to see their names in the papers voted. They say that everything he makes goes on his wife's back." Mrs. Oelrichs, her eye fixed on the gowr's terrible V, said with a smile: Practical Matching What the little girl with the 15 cents in pennies wanted was some red ribbon of a particular shade for her mother. 'She knew the shade, but she couldn't explain it and all she could say was, it wasn't that, no, nor that; it was deeper than that, and not so The Counterfeit Southerner Of course, there are many counterfeits. A most amusing imitation is one that often passes for the typical southerner in Now York. This satchel-mouthed braggart infests the cafes and demands attention by his abusing the waiter for offending his delicate sense of honor. "I hate a nigger, sub," he loudly proclaims, which is a sentiment that one never hears from those to the manner born. He haunts the theaters and parades the streets, since it is poor fun to practise his gentility in private. He wears a wide black hat, mounts the table and yells whenever the band plays a southern melody. Such a pretentious caricature would be harmless enough, but for the ridicule he brings upon the south. Unfortunately, popular authors seem to accept him at face each morning! It's meat and bread to their souls. Then think of the lordly power, and don't forget the steady flow of money squeezed from the workman's hard earned pay envelope. But when these leaders "kite up" any industry no man can hold a job who refuses to pay fines even on trumped up charges, and steadily pay fees whatever they are. The workman is absolutely at the mercy of this band of men who have secured and hold control. Many and many an honest workman has raised his voice and appealed to his fellows to rise and throw off the yoke of Gompers, et al. But, as one writes, "At every convention of the American Federation of Labor, strong opposition comes up but at the critical moment the impassioned orator appears and most dramatically puts the spot light on the leader and covers him with a mawkish film of 'martyrdom' and the emotional delegates yell in delight, forgetting the instructions of the peaceful workingmen at home who desire to free themselves from the odium of membership under the great advocates of strike, boycott, violence and hate." So we see the unequalled insolence with which these trust leaders propose to "induce" ministers to pull their chestnuts from the fire by preaching modern aggressive and violent labor trust methods. There is a better way to secure justice for workers, as will appear further along. Just a little diversion here. I am charged with having first brought to the attention of the public some years ago, the name "Labor Trust." A trust is a combination of men or organizations for the purpose of selling their product at a profit and restricting production to effect it. We will say a large Oil Company gathers in smaller ones and thus controls production. The Labor Trust "gathers in" local trade organizations and thus has power to say how much work each man should do. The Oil Company then fixes prices. The Labor Trust does likewise. The Oil Company may "use methods" to force an unwilling dealer to join. The Labor Trust men go further and slug the independent man if he tries to sell his labor without paying fees and "obeying orders." They are both exactly alike in purpose, which, in both cases is entirely selfish to gain power and money for the leaders. Certain Labor Trust members do not hesitate to use violence, dynaming of property, burning homes of independent men and even murder to force obedience. The Oil Company doesn't go so far. Both are extremely dangerous to the welfare of people and communities, for power placed in the hands of a few men either representing Capital or Labor is almost always abused and liable suffers. Remember reader, that your safety lies in strongest opposition to all trusts which try to Ride over and dictate to the people. Only by opposing their growth can you retain your personal liberty. Now to ministers. The average congregation is made up of about 90 percent of free citizens and much less than 10 percent of members of the Labor Trust. The Tree citizen wants to hear words defending the rights and independence of the common man, free from the arbitrary dictates of any self-seeking organization either of Capital or Labor. The merchant, lawyer, school teacher, doctor, clerk, farmer and workman rebels against any forcible stopping of trains, boats, street cars, or factories, for the prosperity of the community is entirely dependent on steady continuance of these things. Men don't like strikes, boycotts, injured workmen or burned cars and factories. A famous divine says: "These men may hate capitalists' but their hate for other laboring'm burns like a fame, eats like nitric acid, is malignant beyond all description." Then' we remember cases' of acid throwing, eyes gouged out, children pursued, women stripped, homes do- The mission was looking hopeless when suddenly she darted from the shop and seized a passing gentleman by the hand. "Will you please come into this shop with me?" she asked innocently. "Certainly, my chickabiddy," he replied, "if I can be of any use. What is it?" The little girl repiled not, but led the wondering stranger to the counter. value and exploit him in novels or plays where a "southerner" is a necessary part of the stage machinery.—Everybody's Magazine. 1 Wasted Barcaam. The Philadelphia milk dealers who recently raised the price of their product to nine cents a quart and then lowered it again to eight appear to have been the subjects of a great deal of unjust censure. They announced at the time of the raise that milk could not be sold at eight cents without loss. Finding that the consumers would not pay the new price, however, they are continuing to sell at the old, thereby qualifying as genuine philanthropists. Every purchaser of milk at eight cents a quart will doubtless hereafter feel that he is an object of charity. strayed, men murdered and the long, long list of atrocities practised by Labor Trust members on other human beings who cannot agree with the trust methods. Now for the better way. Workingmen are now organizing in the old fashioned trades union or "guild" way, affiliated with the National Trades and Workers Association whose constitution provides arbitration of differences with agreement for no strikes, boycott, picketing or hateful coercion of any kind. This Trade Association has evolved from the experience of the past and is the highest order of Trades Unionism at the present day. Under its laws it is not possible for the Hod Carriers Union or the Street Sweepers Union to order the school teachers or locomotive engineers to quit work in a "sympathetic strike." If any craft finds injustice, the case is presented to properly selected arbitrators, testimony taken and the case presented to the public through the press. Thereupon public opinion, that greatest of all powers, makes itself felt and curiously enough a fair settlement is generally the result. There is no strike, no loss of wages, no loss to the community and yet the faithful workers get their just treatment. There are many details which have been worked out by men skilled in labor matters. It will recompense any interested man to know these details which can be secured by a postal request for constitution and by laws written to the National Trades and Workers Association, Kingman, Block, Battle Creek, Mich. Reader, look carefully into this great question of the relations of Capital and Labor and its successful solution. The new plan works and brings results for the members. I became so favorably impressed with the trustworthiness and practicability of the leaders of this new labor movement that I gave the Association a sanitarium at Battle Creek worth about $400,000 and with about 300 rooms, to be used as a home for their old members and the helpless bables, sometimes made fatherless by the pistol, club or boot heel of some member of the violent "Labor Trust." Suppose you attend church Labor Sunday to hear what your minister has say about the defense of the safety and rights of the common, everyday man. Let me ask you to read again a portion of one of my public articles printed a few years ago. "The people of the world have given me money enough to spend in these talks through the papers in trying to make better and safer conditions for the common people, whether the Postum business runs or not. Scores of letters have come to me from work-people and others, some from union men recounting their sufferings from union 'domination and urging that their cases be laid before the public. It will not answer for us to only sympathize with the poor, the oppressed, those who haven't power enough to drive off tyrants and resent oppression, we must help them tie the hands of the oppressors. Americans must act. Some of my forebears in New England left comfortable homes, took with them the old flint locks, slept on the ground in rain and frost; hungry, footsore, and half clothed they grimly pushed on where the Eternal God of Human Liberty urged them. They wove for me and for you a mantle of freedom, woven in a loom where the shuttles were cannon balls and bullets and where swords were used to pick out the tangles in the yam. These old, sturdy grandads of ours stood by that loom until the mantle was finished, then, stained with their life blood it was handed down to us. Shall I refuse to bear it on my shoulders because the wearing costs me a few dollars, and are you cowards enough to hide yours because some foreign labor union anarchist orders you to strip it off? I have faith that the blood of 1776 still coursing, in your vejns will tingle and call until you wakeh. Then Americans will Act." "There's a Reason." C. W. POST.

A lady of Green Forest, Ark., owes her health to the fact that she could not pay in advance the fee demanded by a specialist to treat her for stomach trouble. In telling of her case she says: "I had been treated by four different physicians during 10 years of stomach trouble. Lately I called on another who told me he could not cure me; that I had neuralgia of the stomach. Then I went to a specialist who told me I had catarrh of the stomach and said he could cure me in four months but would have to have his money down. I could not raise the necessary sum and in my extremity I was led to quit coffee and try Postum. "So I stopped coffee and gave Postum a thorough trial and the results have been magical. I now sleep well at night, something I had not done for a long time; the pain in my stomach is gone and I am a different woman. "I dreaded to quit coffee, because every time I had tried to stop it I suffered from severe headaches, so I continued to drink it although I had reason to believe it was injurious to me, and was the cause of, my stomach trouble and extreme nervousness. But when I had Postum to shift to it was different. "To my surprise I did not miss coffee when I began to drink Postum. "Coffee had been steadily and surely killing me and I didn't fully realize what was doing it until I quit and changed to Postum." Free and the above letter: A new one appears from time to time.

For example (just to get a little start with momentum in it.) the male never can understand why, when he loves a woman, she doesn't love him right back just the same as he loves her. This is too deep for him. It's over his head, to put it the other way around. Every time, when he considers this one, the sun gets in his eyes and he mums it. The great mystery, however, which the male mind never has and never will get even a shadowy imitation of a clutch on is this: Why do women love to go shopping? That's the one that has the universal male angora. No mind is capable of understanding it. The explanations of the women as to why they love to go shopping generally are hopelessly unsatisfactory. You know perfectly well that she can't possibly have more than 82 cents, and you know equally well that you yourself are going to be on a limited chocolate eclair allowance at lunch time until pay day, nudges around. Wherefore, naturally, you wonder how and what on and with what she's going shopping. "Oh," she replies ever so gayly, "I didn't say I was going to buy anything, did I, silly? I'm just going shopping, that's all. That same evening you seek to extract a little of the meat of the mystery from her. "Go shopping today?" you ask her. "Yes, and I had a lovely time!" she chirps. "Let's see what you bought," you proceed. "Didn't I tell you, goose, that I was going shopping?" she asks you. And then you get to the heart of it, or try to, with your question. "Look a-here, tell me this, won't you: What fun do you women folks get out of this shopping thing, any how? Where does it come in? You're not there, more often than not, with the price to snag anything when you go shopping. Well, then what's the use? What do you go for? Doesn't it tire you? And isn't it sort o' aggravating to look at all the junk and not get anything? In essence, why do you go shopping when you're not there with the roll to shop with?" "Oh, just to look at the pretty things," she replies, sort o' off-handedly, and that doesn't explain, does it? "But what good does it do you loking at 'em?" "Oh, one likes to know what the new things are." "Well, you find out, and then you have to pass 'em by. Meanwhile, your feet ache you, don't they, going around all those places?" "Oh, one's feet may ache, but it's such fun." -South Dakota Farmer. WE SEE. We see a new state law of Rhode Island prevents children from working evenings.

We see at Coltic park, Long Island city, running from scratch in the one thousand-yard handicap Sheppard breasted the tape a comparatively easy victor in 2.12 2.5, smashing the world's record of 2.13, made in Lon Myers, October 31, 1881, in New York city. Our people here are still discussing the recent victory of Jack Johnson and Jeffries and it is the main topic of conversation wherever colored folks gather. Well, there is no question about the matter, Jack Johnson is about the most talked and written about individual in the United States today, and his people are certainly proud of him. Not only do the colored people praise him, but we see that they are quite a number of whites who are handing him the glad hand, as in one instance attested by the many applauses he receives daily at the theater here where he is exhibiting. The white people here and elsewhere are also containing all kinds. The white papers here and also of writeups, interviews, editorials and caricatures about Jack. 000 Recently we heard a member of our race, a barber, who is very enthusiastice over Johnson, and especially his victory say that there are only three big people in the world today and when asked who the three were he replied, Booker T., Washington, Theodore Roosevelt and Jack Johnson. 000 Well, these three may not be the three stripes on the globe, but they are, in a very large degree of some important note and can always demand respectful attention. 000 There has been much discussion aroused over the exhibition of the motion pictures of the Johnson-Jeffries fight mainly because the black man was the winner; had the white man been the victor there wouldn't have been any preventive measures whatever; the pictures would have been shown universally. As things didn't come out as the whites expected they are trying to suppress the showing of the pictures. Many cities and towns have passed measures to prevent the pictures being shown. There was much opposition here also, and Mayor Gaynor was asked to prohibit it, but he said there was no law to stop it, and he wasn't going to make any change on the law to suit the opposers. 000 Mayor Gaynor was elected on the Democratic ticket and his term will last four years; three and a half years more. There will be an election for a governor of this state this fall and there was talk of nominating Mr. Gaynor for a candidate. The mayor, however, believes he can do considerable good for the benefit of his people just where he is, so, therefore, he is not particularly anxious about the governorship, not as yet but there is a lot of time yet and people change their minds occasionally. Mayor Gaynor is one of the best mayors the city has had for quite awhile, and his administration is appreciated by all people. He is now busy eliminating all the graft, abuses and other irregularities of the various departments of the various administrations. 000 The mayor also believes in doing things according to law and not by reason of his power of office alone, as is illustrated by his remarks recently regarding the picture fights. The mayor pays special attention to all complaints of the people and where there is a remedy it is quickly applied. A recent case was that of the Newdealers' association of the city. These people complained to the mayor that before they could get their license they had to pay a lot of graft to the different aldermen and politicians before they could secure their license. The mayor has promised to investigate the matter fully, so there will be no more graft paid aldermen by the newdealers. The mayor is right, many people like the law to be interpreted for their own special benefit, disregarding the fact that there is also another side to everything. Mr. Francis V. Oliver chief of the bureau of licenses here in reporting about the fight pictures to the mayor said: "Before my appointment moving pictures of prize fights were shown and are being shown at present. Until the recent fight no one objected that the law forbids them or makes it a final offense to show them, and I know of no such law." 000 Mr. Oliver state briefly and clearly the situation of fight pictures that have been shown before and pictures worst than fighting, but as the black man beats the white man in the latest fight pictures there is a general howling about the degrading of morals and effect on the minds of children and many other filmsy excuses. Anybody with ordinary sense can readily see why the pictures are not wanted to be shown. 000 Mayor Gaynor has been in office just about six months but since he has taken on the government of this city he has wrought many beneficial changes in various matters in regards to the people's welfare and benefit. Judging from the various newspaper opinions from time to time regarding his administration the people seemed to be quite satisfied with his presence at the city hall, and in the mayor's chair.

IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA "No tongue can tell how I suffered for five years with itching and bleeding eczema, until I was cured by the Cuticura Remedies, and I am so grateful I want the world to know, for what helped me will help others. My body and face were covered with sores. One day it would seem to be better, and then break out again with the most terrible pain and itching. I have been sick several times, but never in my life did I experience such awful suffering as with this eczema. I had made up my mind that death was near at hand, and I longed for that time when I would be at rest. I had tried many different doctors and medicines without success, and my mother brought me the Cuticura Remedies, insisting that I try them. I began to feel better after the first bath with Cuticura Soap, and one application of Cuticura Ointment.

To impress on young children just what should and what should not be done and why, is among the most trying problems of parents, as evidenced by the recent experience of a West Philadelphia mother. Last Sunday she asked her small son, aged eight, to carry a chair for her from the dining room to the parlor. He started off willingly, but in the hall he tripped and fell. Amid the crash could be heard the boy giving vent to utterances that would have done credit to a pirate of ancient days. The mother was taken by surprise and was greatly shocked. She gave the boy a long and serious talk on the subject of profanity. This apparently did not make the right impression, for when she concluded the boy adder to her discomfiture by exclaiming, "I am sorry I swore, mamma, but I forgot it was Sunday." All the Difference. The professor, was delivering an eloquent address on cruelty to animals, and to illustrate how a little judicious forethought would eliminate to a great extent the sufferings that even small insects are subject to, said: "As I was coming through the hall tonight I saw a bald-headed gentleman very harshly treat a little innocent house-fly which had alighted on his head. "Now, if there was any justification for such bad temper, I would be quite justified in indulging in it at the present moment, for a fly has just alighted on the back of my head. I can't see it, but I can feel it. "Possibly some of you can see it now, it is on the top of my head.

Mr. Harriman stood at one end of the group. When the pictures were printed and the photographer brought them around the railroad men examined them.

The Grand Chapter O. E. S. Had a Glorious Meeting in Americus Last Week—It Was a Large Gathering. The Grand Chapter of the Eastern Star of Georgia met last week in Americus in the fine auditorium of the Widows' and Orphans' Home. Monday, night a literary program was presented at, the A. M. E. church, when the welcome addresses, responses, annual address, fine singing, etc., were had, much to the edification of the large audience. Every one went away. In high praise of the program and of those who participated: The Grand Chapter session commenced on Tuesday morning, presided over by the Royal Grand Matron, Mrs. Viola E. Hart, and the Royal Grand Patron, Sol. C. Johnson. The beautiful opening of the Grand Chapter proved of much interest, and soon after organization was perfected. Royal Grand' Patron Johnson was the first to render a report. It was receivel with appaluse. Royal Grand Mairon Hart gave a detailed account of her stewardship and she was commended for the same. The short and accurate report of the Grand Treasurer, Mrs. Nellie Hardy, also met the approval of the Grand Chapter. Our faithful and efficient Grand Secretary, Mrs. M. L. Ayers, rendered a well-prepared report, and the auditing committee uaid her a compliment for her work. The last report was that of the Grand Lecturer. This was also approved. The various committees went hard to work, and all rendered such reports showing the Grand Chapter to be in excellent condition. One of the great signs of progress among the Chapters is shown by the harmony that exists and the smallness of the work of the committee on Appeals and Grievances. During the year a large number of chapters have been organized with some of the best ladies in the state. The collections for all purposes were very flattering. The endowment department is in a flourishing condition. Many death claims were paid during the year. The ladies have many thousands of dollars as a balance on hand. The chapters have contributed very liberally toward the support of the Orphane Home, and many of them have sent in special contributions for the repair of the building damaged by lightning the first of the year. Tuesday night a very appropriate memorial services was held at which time the impressive memorial ceremony of the rite was carried out, with a few sentences eulogistic of the dead of each Chapters by its representative. This also proved of much interest not only to the delegates, but to the visitors. The election was held Wednesday, with the following result: BSH. C. Johnson, Royal Grand Pastron. Mrs. Viola Hart, Royal Grand Ma- tron. Mrs. J. C. Miller, Royal Grand A. Matron. Mrs. Nellie Hardy, Royal Grand Treasurer. Mrs. M. L. Ayers, Royal Grand-Secretary. Miss Effie Harper, Royal Grand Conductress. Mrs. E. L. Thomas, Royal Grand A. Conductress. Mrs. Willie G. Hill, Royal Grand Lecturer. Mr. S. S. Mincey, Grand Associate Patron. Rev. A. J. Gould, Grand Prelate. Mrs. Grace Sweet, Grand Warder. Mrs. Willie Strong, Grand Herald. Mrs. Maggie Mapp, Grand Truth. Mrs. Anna Roberts, Grand Faith. Mrs. Annie Babcock, Grand Wisdom. Mrs. L. E. Wright, Grand Charity. Brothers J. W. Weston and William Williams, Marshals. Mr. D. Harris, Sentinel. Miss Bessie E. Foster and Rev. A. R. Stallings, Auditors. These officers were installed by Past Patron L. H. Burdell. A spiritited contest came up over the selection of the next place of meeting. The places nominated were Pelham (Cordele, Fitzgerald, Atlanta, Sparta and Hawkinsville. Sparta was easily the winner, and this victory was achieved greatly by the personality of Brother G. W. Wynn, who worked hard to secure the meeting. Much business was attended to, and the best of spirit was shown throughout the session. It was the first attendance of many of the delegates, and all of them expressed great satisfaction at the success of the same. All of the delegates went away pledged to work harder for the success of the rite during the year. Grand Master Ingram Scared. Brother Joseph of St. Simons on the Warpath. St. Simons Island, Ga., Aug. 19.—The Savannah Tribune: Please publish the following article for me, so all true-hearted Odd Fellows will know part of speech of B. S. Ingram made in one of the leading churches of Brunswick, Ga., last night. His statements were very unbecoming a gentleman and a brother, by saying he is going around Georgia and put "niggers" out of the lodges who are against the present administration and put "niggers" in who are in favor of the present administration, and also the kickers. As for myself, I am not in favor of the present administration and if they can put me out I will be very glad to be tried before some able impartial committee who understand the laws of our beloved order. I want the Grand Master to know that the Grand Lodge, the B. M. C., Executive Committee and the Subcommittee of Management all belong to the subordinate lodges, and not the lodges belong to them. They are hired servants, and the servants cannot be greater than their masters. You think so, but is not so among the wise, and why don't you address us as brothers and sisters, instead of calling us in open church before the public you "niggers" repeatedly. I want you to know we are not "niggers;" we are Negroes. The word, "nigger" derived from the original Latin means black; it does not apply to tawny or olive colored; it means quite black. By that if Ingram's statement meant what he has said, he will put the black Odd Fellows out of their respective lodges if they kick against his order. He has also claimed that he has put about two hundred kickers out of their lodges. By next week I will make the two hundred and one or begin the two hundred and one that will put out. So we have reason to believe now that the reason Brother Singleton could not succeed Wilson is because it was a "nigger," with the meaning of Latin. Again: Ingram further stated, in his public remarks, that no one will run against him for District Grand Master, because their record is not clean enough. As for myself, I have a clear, clean record from my birth. I was born clean and keep clean and undefiled up to now. Ingram, furthermore, encouraged wrong-doing among his district deputies by telling them to charge every member in association before they become members four dollars apiece and paid the subcommittee twelve dollars and fifty cents, district Grand Lodge two dollars and all the rest of the money belongs to you. Ingram's statement in that is contrary to the General Laws, page 51, sections 1 and 2, and page 52, section 6, edition 1908, and read also decision of subcommittee, volume 1, page 23 and page 249, you will find Ingram has led your wrong all the way, my brethren, and you must stop taking advantage of your neighbor and ignorance. I have learned that some of the jack-leg deputies are going around visiting lodges and collecting money from the ignorant lodges. All that is contrary to the laws of our order. Ingram further stated, in his public remarks, when he became Grand Master, he found only nineteen dollars in the treasury. By that Wilson was right when he claim the Odd Fellows were bankrupt or insolvent, providing if Ingram's statement is true. The true condition of our treasury in the state never will be known except we adopt the rule of the General Laws of England concerning auditors, reading as follows: "The accounts of this society shall be audited by two persons, one of whom shall be a public accountant, who shall examine and attest all the books, statements and stock of this society and shall submit to the trustees and board of directors a written statement of the result of their audit." Ingram further stated in public he will not sign any application to open any new lodge except it came through his district deputy. I have noticed Ingram is not acquainted with the General Laws of our order. He needs to be introduced to it. Ingram has no more authority to sign an application to open a new lodge than the Zulu king of Africa or a guerrilla king of the Philippine Islands have. Ingram, please notice in the General Laws, page 51, sections 1 and 2, page 52, sections 3 and 4, and you will find who is to sign it and he has nothing more to do but sign it and put the two dollars in his pocket and whenever he shall fail to sign it by your instruction we will send applications directly to the subcommittee. Ingram is going around scaring the ignorant ones by saying if you kick against me, I will put you out and your three hundred dollars' policy will be canceled. I would like very much for Ingram to know that my cheque is good for three hundred dollars any day in the week, and I have only one boy, who gets five dollars a month placed in the bank for him, and if I should be called away now, I will leave behind me for him and his mother thousands, and you cannot scare me about three hundred dollar policy and stop me from using or exercising my free speech and prerogative in a right way. I have now in my possession American General Laws, also English General Laws, and you cannot put me out and keep me out of the Odd Fellows, because I can go to my native land and be an Odd Fellow, the same day I get there. English General Laws read thus: "Seamen — and in special cases, landsmen—shall be eligible to initiation the same night they are proposed, being a regular lodge night or a special meeting called for the purpose presided over by the N. G. or a P. N. G.; provided, the necessary certificates as to age and health are obtained and that two or more members are to certify as to character." Why don't Ingram address us like Hon. W. D. Creswill will address the Sir Knight? Why doesn't he address us like the Grand Lady, in the person of Sister R. L. Barnes, addresses WOODLAWN ATLANTA, GA. $9.05 Tickets on sale September 16, 17, 18 and night train of September 20, final limit September 28.

The picnic of Ebenezer Presbyterian Sunday school, Limerick, Ga., came off successfully on Friday, 26th of August. There were many visitors from Savannah and-Florida, as well as from, remote parts of this county. Among the Savannah visitors was Miss McIntosh, daughter of Prof. McIntosh, who is spending some time with Prof. and Mrs. C. C. Cassels of Arcadia. On Saturday, 20th of August, the Rough Riders of Limerick went to McIntosh and played a baseball match with the Cow Boys of McIntosh. The score stood 5 to 0 in favor of the Rough Riders. A return match was played at Limerick on the day of the picnic above referred to, the Cow Boys again losing. The score was 24 to 10. Have you ever visited Woodlawn Park? If not, you owe it to yourself and to your family to go out and inspect the beautiful residential Park. Already such people as the Rev. Daniel Wright, the Rev. W. M. Gray, Dr. J. Walter Williams and many of the leaders among Savannah's colored citizenship have purchased lots at Woodlawn. Never before in the history of Savannah has such a proposition been offered to the colored people. Woodlawn is a home park. It is a place to live and raise your family. Why pay rent in a miserable house on a two by four lot in the hot and dusty city, when for less money you can live in your own home on a beautiful lot, ten times the size of a Savannah lot and raise your vegetables and chickens? It is not a question of whether you can afford to buy a Woodlawn lot—it is simply a question of whether you can afford to let such an opportunity get away from you. You can secure free car tickets from Geo. W. Jaqobs and Chas. McDowell. Take Isle of Hope car and get off at Woodlawn, just beyond Sandfly. On Sunday, 4th instant, the funeral of Miss Olive Lambright will be preached in Midway temple, Arcadia, at 11 o'clock a. m.f.l by the pastor, Rev. J. W. Pennington. Mr. Jos. J. Brown, a solicitor for the Savannah Tribune, will visit us soon and it is hoped that he will be successful in getting a number of new subscribers. The Tribune is one of the cleanest colored papers in América, and we readily recommend it to the homes of the good people of Liberty county. Friends of Dr. A. R. Wilson, pastor of Day's Memorial Presbyterian church will regret to learn that he is seriously ill at his home, Theber, Ga.

Frasier, the popular postmaster of Limerick, Ga., made a flying visit to Savannah last week, having formerly lived in Savannah Mr. Frasier has a number of friends in the city and his visits are always very pleasant.
